Something doesn't quite compute with Spectrobes: Origins. Someone must have spilt a cup of tea over the blueprints for the game. Clearly, videogame law states that games aimed at kids cannot be i) fun or ii) involving. Moreover, if said game features collectable monsters which are conducive to beating large groups of enemies, these must be irritating at all times and, to the main extent, pointless.
Some key letters of the document must have had something slopped on them because Origins is, to the main extent, fun and involving and the collectible monsters are, generally, pretty useful. Not only that, but some of the team plainly kept going after the hooter went to get the game looking as nice as can be. If they'd done that on some Saturday night game show they'd have been booted off and no mistake. Come to think if it, if they'd done that on some other videogames they'd have been sacked.
Dedicated Craftwork
Games aimed at a younger demographics are supposed to be throwaway affairs and cheap and cheerful (though sometimes the latter is too much to ask). Origins has all the ingredients required for its target audience, but there's a pleasing sense of craftsmanship about everything. If this was a car, the door would shut not with a slam, but with a thunk. The controls work, everything looks very pretty, and the combat is varied and full of numerous options. Disney's game is a standalone effort; there's no licence weighing it down, no films or TV series to impose unrealistic deadlines and ruin quality control by slimming down the staff, so a little more care can be taken.
Origins is definitely a mainstream game. The story and characters are generic and rather insipid at least to older gamers; a boy and girl rocket through the galaxy discovering new worlds and new Spectrobes, battling evil monsters along the way. Everything's designed to work with the minimum of fuss, so that means it all borders on the too-simple. It's fair enough given the target audience, just as long as you don't expect a 100-hour plus RPG epic.
Full Spectrobe Warrior
The A button handles general slicing and dicing with whatever weapon is in-hand, while movements of the Wii Remote unleash more powerful charged attacks. With your Spectrobe alongside, you can also dive into the action. The Spectrobe can work on its own or combine with you for even bigger pay-offs. Whichever Spectrobe you have working alongside you has a set of elemental strengths and weaknesses which will come to the fore against a certain type of enemy, so this is where the need to collect and nurture as many of them as you can comes into its own. If you have a ready-made army of every kind of elemental combination waiting back in your spacecraft, you've all the back-up you need for any situation.
Specs Appeal?
There's a real RPG element to the action, which will improve both your character and your Spectrobe, and without realising it you'll be improving stats thanks to the compelling nature of the battling. You can take command of your Spectrobe to send him ferreting about for hard-to-reach switches or items, but deep down, getting into real-time scraps is what Origins specialises in. There's little in the way of puzzling or real exploration, which is a bit of a shame given the quality of the world created. But when you've a super-powerful move which involves crossing the Nunchuk and Remote over so that your arms resemble an X, before pushing outwards, creating a massive explosion, that pales into the background. The Wii's controls are integrated neatly in Origins, and are generally made good use of - we get to say that surprisingly less than you'd think. Origins is a serious shock to the system then, but a very pleasant one. So we'll chuck the thoroughly bored review we'd already imagined in the bin and ramp the score up 20 per cent.

Please enjoy this post from staff writer, Mitchell Pauly. Mitchell blogs over at SnarkFinance.com.
Social finance is charity for capitalists. If your uncomfortable giving directly to charity or don't have the time to volunteer—or you're an asshole—social finance may be a way for your to feel good about yourself while you bath in virgin's tears. There are a multitude of outlets for participating in social finance:
- Microfinance: small, "micro" loans to individuals or businesses that lack the access to capital markets. So far, microfinance has played a large role in improving the standard of living in poor countries, but has also allowed people like Zach Braff to indulge their egos and make super pretentious movies. Not all Social Finance is perfect.
- Socially Responsible Investing: a broad category of investing that upholds the core values of improving social and environmental outcomes. My wife tries to get me to do this every day by buying our groceries locally, which I do by going to our local Walmart. Does that count?
- Green or Sustainable Business: businesses that seek to minimize their impact on the environment and are probably located in Portland, Oregon or Vermont.
- Venture philanthropy: like venture capitalism, but for philanthropic organizations. This is mostly for rich people trying to make up for all the rainforests they cut down.
There are other forms of Social Finance, but these are the major players. Based on the fact that you are reading this article instead of attending a soiree at the White House, not all Social Finance avenues are available to you. Chin up though, kid. There are still plenty of ways for you to participate in Social Finance.
How to Participate in Social Finance
- Try microlending sites such as Prosper.com which allow you to loan money in a way that benefits individuals and society.
- Donate to non-profits that work to solve social and environment issues, or contact them to volunteer. I don't do this personally, so consider this an opportunity to be better than me.
- Invest in the equities of socially responsible companies. Begin by writing off your list any company Dick Cheney was ever involved in.
- Buy shares of a community investment fund. There are investment funds that provide capital to social enterprises in exchange for equity. Shares will rise and fall with the fortunes of the companies the fund invest in, just like any other fund.
The Best Form of Social Finance: Your Skills
This might be as obvious as a sweatpants boner, but social finance is not something I personally participate much in. In fact, I don't donate to charity. I prefer to lend my skills and services as a financial professional, businessman and writer to companies that couldn't otherwise afford professionals like me. I believe this is the best thing you can do for a socially minded venture, and is the best form of social finance. I gain skills, experience and contacts while the organization gains services they normally wouldn't have access to—like I said: charity for capitalists.
How do you feel about participating in social finance? Do you give to charity? Or, do you give in other ways?

Eager to Eliminate Ron Paul, MSM Outlets Report that Ron Paul has Dropped Out.
"Asked if this is a dropout, Paul's campaign manager Jesse Benton said 'Absolutely not! We are focusing our efforts squarely on winning delegates and party leadership positions at state conventions."
Ron Paul Pizza Bomb
"Frustrated by mean and disorganized GOP that left many without lunch as they waited outside in the parking lot after being thrown out of the meeting room by the GOP insiders, things began to get a bit hectic. The meeting had been going on for hours, kids were starving, everyone was doing their best to be peaceful and patient. With nearly 2,000 live UStream viewers watching the historical event unfold, it was time for someone to take action. Someone Did! In historic precedent, the world's first PizzaBomb to feed the hungry supporters was launched, as random people phoned in sending over fifty pizzas to hungry supporters!"
From the people who brought you Sarah Palin...
To make an analogy, voting in the GOP is like watching an episode of 'Whose Line is it Anyways?" , where the rules are made up and your votes don't matter. Unless, it's a vote for Mitt Romney, because he matters. (money matters) Why is there even a delegate process? Ron Paul, who seems to be the only GOP candidate not advocating for continued war in the Middle East, has been consistently trampled upon, by the so called "conservative" GOP leaders and talk show pundits for years now. So perhaps their latest brazen action comes as no surprise.
(Source: triple-a-discourse)
Ron Paul poll shocker: He beats Obama head-to-head
"That's right, leads – as in, ahead of, out front, winning, and so forth. According to a Rasmussen Reports poll released Tuesday, at the moment Representative Paul bests Mr. Obama in a head-to-head matchup by 43 to 41 percent.
The same poll has Mitt Romney tied with Obama, at 44 percent each. Rick Santorum is three points behind the president, according to Rasmussen, and Newt Gingrich is 10 points behind."- CSM
Ron Paul Is Secretly Taking Over The GOP — And It's Driving People Insane
"As the full extent of the chaos unfolds, sources close to the Paul campaign tell Business Insider that it is looking increasingly like Romney's team might have a hand in denying Paul votes, noting that Romney has some admirably ruthless operatives on his side and a powerful incentive to avoid a fifth caucus loss this month.
According to the Paul campaign, the Maine Republican Party is severely under-reporting Paul's results — and Romney isn't getting the same treatment. For example, nearly all the towns in Waldo County — a Ron Paul stronghold – held their caucuses on Feb. 4, but the state GOP reported no results for those towns. In Waterville, a college town in Central Maine, results were reported but not included in the party vote count. Paul beat Romney 21-5 there, according to the Kennebec County GOP." -Business Insider

A big old trailer that opens in the back instead of on the side, Happy Grillmore, which plies its trade mostly in Seattle's South Lake Union district, with side trips to Microsoft territory in Redmond, serves big, two-hand burgers with assorted condiments (including a black bean chipotle patty and another made with wild Alaskan salmon). Non-burger lovers might like the Hawaiian-style pulled pork topped with cabbage over steamed rice with spicy mac salad on the side.

"Across the miles into Iowa, Wayne heard the litany of wrongs done to Denny by his wife, Iris. She had cheated on him, abused him mentally and physically, borne children by other men, cuckolded him — he actually used the word cuckolded — stolen from him, made a fool of him, blackmailed him, spied on him, called the police on him, set his motorcycle on fire. Denny hadn't done anything to deserve this, and he admitted that he loved her once, and even started to cry again as he described their first dates together, back in high school — going to the movies, playing miniature golf, and necking down by the lake. 'I've been around some rough characters and I know a few who seem crazy enou—' He stopped. 'I know a handful who probably have what it takes to do it. But it seems like every time you turn on the TV there's some stupid moron tried to hire somebody like that and the person they thought would do the job calls the police and wears a wire, and it just seems like a good way to get caught.'"
But even as the pulp froths about, with bad decisions and weird conspiracies and coincidences abounding, there are bits like this — where a trucker's hijacked by a self-evidently desperate man — and over the course of a long ride tries to see what the situation can do for him. Guilfoile's playing in Dan Brown's yard, sure, but the small touches make you wish he'd explore a better neighborhood.

Access Control & Identity: Got a Problem?
Wireless locking systems are great problem solvers at schools
The flexibility of using wireless access control locks was leveraged by Colorado Mesa University (Grand Junction, Colo.). When renovating its oldest classroom building, the university had to move its offices to temporary buildings. To secure the temporary offices, Locksmith Preston C. Ellis used Schlage AD 400 wireless locks to simplify installation. Once the renovation was complete, he used the locks on other buildings.
Wireless access control is also being used at Colorado Mesa's Hamilton Recreation Center and El Pomar Natatorium. Here they solved a different problem. When the natatorium was built, conduits were not installed for access control and, like at the University of New Hampshire, the amount of concrete made it impossible to add them later. Instead, wireless access devices and trim were easy to install without wiring.
Mississippi State got creative with the use of wireless technology campus wide.
"I use wireless everywhere on campus," stated Richard Tollison, manager of Telecom Data Services for Mississippi State University. "That's the only way I install access control anymore."
Like most security and IT administrators, Tollison started off slow, installing wireless access locks on a dozen or so hard-to-wire doors. But, then, he also installed a handful of wireless portable readers at their baseball stadium so students could bypass the ticket box and go directly to the bleachers. Now he's so confident in wireless access technology that he's installing it on every door needing access control. That includes brand new construction, not just retrofit and difficult-to-wire applications.
Increased security plus fast lockdown
According to Gary Conley, University of Virginia, Facilities & Systems Engineer, Office of Business Operations, in Charlottesville, Va.: "We wanted a Grade 1 ANSI spec locking system with dual credentials—something the student had, their magnetic stripe ID card, plus something the student knew, a personal identification number (PIN)—to get into these halls and their rooms. The locks needed to be online and wireless so that we could create immediate lockdowns, yet eliminate the labor and hardware costs of hardwiring.
"With the 900 MHz solution, our entire access control system knows when someone is at the door. The lock/reader captures information such as request to exit, door position and card data and immediately sends it to the host in real-time."
In the system, the lock/reader's PIM (Panel Interface Module) seamlessly integrates to CBORD access control panels via RS485 protocols, eliminating the need for any reader interface modules. The CBORD Squadron V1000RX multi-door controller is wired to the PIM400, which communicates wirelessly with up to 16 Schlage AD-400 wireless locks. The AD-Series unit is battery operated and the database is updated in real time. The student's card, once swiped, is read, sent to server and the server comes back with a pass or fail. If it's a pass, the door unlocks.
The PIM also helps provide another very important attribute. If the network connection is lost or the server is unavailable, the lock and the Squadron controller retain a local copy of the patron access assignments. As long as the Squadron and PIM retain power, patron access continues as determined by the most recent patron assignments downloaded to the Squadron master. In the event that power is lost to the PIM or Squadron master, the AD-400 lock can revert to a configurable "cache" mode, which limits access to the last 1000 cards presented and allowed access through the door.
According to Conley, immediate lockdown cannot be a heartbeat away.
"This issue is major with wireless access control," emphasized Conley. "Usually, with WiFi, access control decisions are downloaded by the host into the lock five to six times per day versus five to six times per hour with 900 MHz solutions, a 10-minute heartbeat. Access control decisions may also be managed within the locks (as is the case with offline locks) to minimize communication from the lock to the host and conserve batteries. However, such limited (non-online) connectivity with the host limits the locks' ability to receive urgent commands from the host. For instance, even with a 900 MHz platform, a direction to immediately lock down could be ignored for 10-plus minutes.

Clare or Nikki: Who Will Juan Pablo Choose?!
March 10, 2014 • 4:35 pm
Annnnd another "dramatic" Bachelor finale is only hours away!
It's been fun watching the last couple of episodes and trying to guess who Juan Pablo will pick, especially since Justin and I got to meet him when we were in Miami.
While drinking our last cocktails together in the Miami heat, Juan Pablo said..."Do not miss the March 10th episode." That's right, STRAIGHT from the Horse's Mouth. So, even though this is our first day in Hawaii, we will be making our way back to the room to see who he ends up picking!! He definitely did pique our interest!!!
I really do think that he's going to pick one of the ladies, but I don't think he'll be getting down on one knee tonight. I'm not even sure if I can confidently say that he's still with whoever he chose, just over 3 months after the show finished filming. The question though is whether that girl is Nikki or Clare? My answer is Nikki, but that's only because that's what I've read in the tabloids and on social media.
I think that the two girls he had the strongest connection with are the ones who left: Charlene & Andi. I think he was very attracted to the "cerebral connections" he had with them, and even though I know he said he didn't like that Andi argued when she left, I secretly think he did.
I felt bad watching the girls gang up on Juan Pablo during The Women Tell All. I felt like they all forgot that they signed up to be on "The Bachelor". Yes, he may have not been the best at handling all the women's feelings, but let's face it, dealing with that many hormones is not an easy task. For a man to do well in this situation, he needs to be very in touch with his feelings and great at communicating, which are two qualities that Juan Pablo may have been lacking.
I'm also just going to throw this out there, but I have a sneaky suspicion that he is now dating someone who was on the show, but isn't either Nikki or Clare. Justin is right here beside me and he thinks Juan is "hunting for penguins in Canada right now with Charlene." Interesting....
What do you all think?!!!
(with bated breath)
xoxo Jilly

Aaaaakkkkk! I can't wait to find out. Justin I think you are correct, I also think he is not done hunting penguins in Canada, you could just see the chemistry still with Sharleen on the WTA! Us Canadian Charlene's are hard to resist! haha Aloha! xo
Jillian, I think you are Bang ON! I always thought JP and SHarleen had the strongest connection and although he continued to Play The Bachelor I really didnèt and donèt see him having a lasting relationship with either of the remaining girls...wishing Juan Pablo all the happiness in the future and I hope he has found it just as you have Jillian Hugs & Kisses

Q:Alright then. Tea, couch and Lisbon. If you have to choose two, what would they be?
Don't make me choose between the three most important things in my life! How cruel!
Q:There are posts saying you are turned on by everything Lisbon does, such as her toughness, swagger, and empathy. Also, that she uses guns. Are you?
I'm starting to believe there is some sort of cult of "Jisbon" people out there purposefully asking me strange and irrelevant questions.
Q:You seem to know your Shakespeare, and when asked if you preferred 'Capulet or Montagu', you replied 'Montagu'. Do you have a favourite Shakespeare play or poem?
Hamlet, I can practically recite it.
Q:What do you think about Lisbeth Salander?
Van Pelt got pretty into that series, she told me I reminded her of Lisbeth Salander because of my sociopathic tendencies. I read the books myself and learned that Lisbeth Salander was a GENIUS. So thank you, Grace.
Q:Aww, does that mean you aren't a fan? I'm really kind of suprised, I figured Cho would be the fan since he's more of a reader!
I started the book a few days ago actually, and Cho did read the book, but Rigsby couldn't convince him to go with us. I think Cho might have secretly saw it on his own later on. ;)
Q:Do you read many detective stories? I thought one of your cases was going to have the same solution as "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax", but I wasn't quite correct.
I have read the Sherlock Holmes series by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, I have greatly enjoyed the series. Grace actually once said I reminded her of Sherlock Holmes because of my blunt nature and need to stir up trouble.
Q:Never stop wearing your vests. They are the most attractive thing
Vests are timeless, of course I won't!
Q:Wich do you think is your best hability?
Spelling, perhaps? Hmm let's see, my ability to deduce everything about someone almost without error, oh and my modesty. ;)
Q:I missed you and I hope you're doing okay! I'm kind of curious to know, did you go see The Hobbit in theaters?
Thank you, that is very kind of you! I did! Rigsby is actually quite the fan and no one else would go with him.
Q:What's your opinion on self harm
I hate self harm, I think anyone struggling from self harm should receive the help they need. I would be happy to speak with you privately off anonymous if you'd like.

Leaves of Life - November 18
Sir David Wilkie born 1785.
Louis J. M. Daguerre born 1789.
Cyrus Field born 1819.
William S. Gilbert born 1836.
If e'er when man had fallen asleep,
I heard a voice, "Believe no more,"
A warmth within the breast would melt
The freezing reason's colder part,
And like a man in wrath, the heart
Stood up and answered, "I have felt."
—Alfred Tennyson.
Faith is the deep want of the soul. We have faculties for the spiritual, as truly as for the outward world. God, the foundation of all existence, may become to the mind the most real of all beings. The believer feels himself resting on an everlasting foundation.
—William Henry Channing.
And they said one to another, Was not our heart burning within us, while he spake to us in the way, while he opened to us the scriptures?
—Luke 24. 32.
Lord God, save me from a hard and doubting heart. May I be trustful and come to thee in faith. All the days of my life may my lips sing thy praise as I unfold thy love and purposes. Amen.

Based on a casual read of the headline alone, you'd assume Jordyn Wieber, the US female gymnast competing at the Olympics, threw a hissy fit and spoiled what should have been a proud national moment.
It's true she did cry when she found out she didn't qualify for the women's all-around, but she sucked it up and was sporting about it afterward. In fact, the text of the article says pretty much the same thing.
It's a deceptive practice that speaks to something that I've long disliked about the latest efforts to optimize the internet experience and, by extension, social media: the obsessive focus on trying to attract attention at any cost and by any means.
It's similar to a friend pleading with you to "like" something or to vote for one of their competitions, etc. There's nothing wrong with letting me know about it, but don't tell me what to do and certainly don't try to manipulate my interest.
It is in poor taste and bad practice. Let's focus on the fundamentals - if you want me to read your articles, like your latest adventure, or otherwise respond favorably to whatever my attention is supposed to be drawn to, then at the very least make the content interesting. While good marketing is always to be applauded, it's never a replacement for actual substance.
Writing a good article is difficult. Writing a catchy headline is, by comparison, much easier. But publishers who focus on the headline with poor content risk going the way of tabloids and the subway-grade newspapers that end up on the floor of the local 6 line.
Nate Silver's prediction model for Obama was SPOT ON FOR ALL 50 STATES. Read it and WEEP haters. All the data doubters gotta eat his heteroskedastic dust.
Seriously, though, well done on the model and sticking to your guns despite all the unskewed hot air spinning around. I kneel and bow before your mighty predictiveness.
An article from The Atlantic discusses one proposal (of many) put forth by a task force in Florida to incent students to study topics in high demand amongst the state's employers, which would likely be in the fields of science, tech, engineering, and math (also known as STEM majors).
It's a topic I've pondered as well, as there is indisputable value to quantitative skills. But I'm not sure having state schools play around with tuition rates would be a step in the right direction. As it is, the free market already has a heavy say in major selection - those with more quantitative majors typically have a greater shot at better employment for higher pay than many arts degree graduates. I don't think any college student is unaware of this dynamic. And the free market is much quicker at making these distinctions than a college or governmental body.
Ignoring the specifics of this proposal, though, I believe we've underinvested in STEM as a nation. It'd be great if we could give math and science a better name starting well before college, similar to the subjects' heyday during the Soviet space race, but not sure what practical approach can be taken to make it a priority.
Sitting here in the Upper East Side while riding out the hurricane, I've spent the last few hours looking around at other buildings. Many of the units are lit up and, more interesting, almost all of them have their blinds wide open. While there's a perverse desire to grab my binoculars and compare the living rooms of my neighbors to mine, I think part of the reason is a desire to feel connected to…something.
This probably seems silly to people who live just about anywhere else, but NYC is a city noted for not knowing one's neighbors. It's an irony that in the country's most populous, densely packed city we tend to value a certain level of privacy and isolation.
There's a certain comfort in the middle of a dark storm to see patches of light dotting the horizon, bouys of humanity extending across a pitch black, tempestuous sea.
It's a way to say, "Hi, neighbor," without having to say, "Hi, neighbor," and still have that warm, fuzzy feeling in your gut.
Last night's debate offered some interesting observations to those interested in the skill of rhetoric and oratory. I'll focus on the tactics of debating rather than the words or positions, since that's being dissected and discussed ad nauseum elsewhere. While this evaluation is more "stylistic," when you're being televised nationwide on 3 major networks, appearances matter.
These are good lessons for any future argument or any other highly contentious discussion.
1. Don't ask questions if you don't know the answer. A shorter version of this would be, "Don't ask questions."
Romney cost himself precious speaking time by asking Obama pointed, hypothetical questions. A good example was Romney's questioning of Obama's energy policies early in the debate.
Unfortunately for Mitt, Obama was only too happy to oblige by getting off his seat and answering away. Romney realized his error and tried to talk over the president, but the tempo of the moment already shifted in Obama's favor.
Only a few minutes after this mistake, Romney asked Obama ANOTHER question! However, he caught himself much quicker this time and clarified that it "wasn't a question" and continued on. Nervy stuff for any Romney supporter, though.
2. An attack can be effective. A counter-attack is devastating. During debates, we expect attacks. They're well-rehearsed and we know they're coming.
But counter-attacks feel more natural, spontaneous, and unscripted. So when there is an opportunity to counter-attack, even if it was well-rehearsed all along, as long as it is delivered naturally, the counter-attack is an effective way to disrupt the other party's rhythm.
It's also the ideal time to plant a memorable one-liner. The best counter-attack is short, punchy, and disorienting for the other side.
Both Mitt and Barack were likely briefed on possible counter-attacks they could use when the opportunity arose. During the 1st debate, Mitt responded with a good line on the president's entitlement to a plane but not to his facts. Paul Ryan pushed Biden into an awkward position saying the country knew Joe was under a lot of pressure to make up for his mate's lackluster performance.
Last night, though, Obama made more of his counter-attacks. He baited Romney with a dig regarding his 14% tax rate and set the lure by attacking Mitt's investments in China (which he doesn't have control over as they are managed by an unrelated 3rd party). Mitt stepped up and tried to throw it back to Obama, asking whether the president had looked at his own pension (again, see point #1: Don't Ask Questions). Obama hooked Mitt hard with deadpan delivery: "My pension isn't as big as yours." Cue peals of laughter from the live audience and viewers at home.
Romney walked into the trap. A better response would have been to state that the president was guilty of the same crime (this would have allowed Obama to still use the line, but likely to less effect). Or Romney could have ignored the attack - when you are wealthier than 99% of the nation, arguing about investments is inevitably a losing game.
I'll say it again, don't ask open questions to the opposing party. It leaves openings for them to exploit and Obama was very nimble that night.
3. If you can't answer, pivot, pivot, PIVOT. Both candidates did this during the debate, though I think Obama wiggled a little freer of pain points. There were a few areas where I thought Romney would hammer Obama: (1) Libya and (2) the Fast and Furious operation.
Libya was always going to be tricky since foreign policy is Obama's strong suit. However, this was a chance for Romney to pin Obama on being negligent about security, not doing enough to protect our vital assets and interests in the region, and so on.
While Romney made these points, Obama very quickly focused on Mitt's one weakness on the topic - Romney's clumsy response in the immediate aftermath of the consulate attack. Obama assumed full responsibility for the failure in Benghazi and related it in a personal way, noting that the Americans killed were "my folks" and mentioning his somber duty to pay respect as the caskets returned to the US.
Obama was confronted with a question about a security and intelligence failure, but came out looking presidential and personal.
Obama put in a similar performance regarding the questioning around Fast & Furious. It's been an unmitigated failure by any measure. Romney should have scored easy points here. Instead, Obama brushed it off, Romney didn't do any meaningful follow-up, and the Administration's fiasco on the matter has been largely forgotten.
Where Romney did well was tying many of the topics - no matter how tangential - back to the dismal economy and the stuttering pace of job creation over the last 4 years. Consistent messaging is key. Even so, Romney had moments where he could have done a better pivot. When asked about equal pay for women, his most memorable line will be "binders full of women," a rather indelicate, unnatural phrase, and it became clear it was a topic that he is not experienced or comfortable discussing in meaningful depth.
I expect the candidates will continue to hone the art of debating in preparation for their final appearance next week. Based on last night's performance, I'd say the key point to drill in both candidates' heads (though perhaps a bit more for Romney) is to avoid open questions. While many have complained that Obama got about 9% more speaking time, Romney has only himself to blame for at least half of that amount as he repeatedly kept inviting Obama to respond.
Should be fun.

Happy 88th Birthday to Dan Inouye, the senior senator of the great state of Hawaii!
So, you might be asking what makes an 88 year-old guy such as badass. What, he ghost rides his motorized wheelchair?
Do this, type in your Google Search bar "Dan Inouye", and add a space…and what's the second suggestion in your search bar? The phrase "Dan Inouye BADASS."
Curious much?
(Source: FishbowlDC)
First, he's an ice cold congressman. He took a leading role in the Iran Contra affair of the 1980s and exposed the poor oversight and governmental malfeasance of that particular scandal during the Reagan Administration.
But whatever. Who cares? That was like, a generation ago.
Fine, I'll see your stand up congressman…and raise you a Medal of Honor. Boom! And here's how he got it:
In April 1945, toward the end of World War II, Dan Inouye was fighting along a heavily defended ridge near San Terenzo, Italy. He was a 2nd Lieutenant with the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, the most highly decorated unit in the entire history of the US Army. Ever.
And to top it off, it was entirely comprised of Japanese American volunteers, people who more likely than not had family members held in internment camps due to suspicions over their true loyalty to the country.
As Inouye led his troops in an assault against the ridge, a nest of three machine guns opened up from 40 yards out - less than half the distance of a football field. Inouye stood up and took a bullet in the stomach for his troubles. Unfazed, he charged the first machine gun nest and cleared it out with hand grenades and a barrage of shots from his M1 Thompson submachine gun.
Despite being warned of the severity of his stomach wound, he organized his men for an attack on the second machine gun position and took it out before collapsing from blood loss.
Regaining consciousness, he crawled toward the third machine gun nest while his squad distracted the German gunners. Managing to sneak within 10 yards of the enemy, he readied a hand grenade and cocked his right arm to throw - when a rifle launched grenade struck him on his right elbow, severing most of his arm.
Miraculously, his hand was still reflexively gripped around the grenade and its release handle. Some of his men tried to run to his aid, but he told them to hang back out of fear the grenade could go off at any point.
He managed to pry the grenade from his right hand and transfer it to his left, lobbing it at the bunker just as a German soldier was preparing to finish him off.
Getting back on his feet, Inouye finished the last German resistance with a one-handed burst from his Tommy, holding it in his weaker hand.
He finally took a hit in the leg, passed out, and fell to the bottom of the ridge. When he came to, he saw his men standing over him, and immediately ordered them back to their fighting positions, noting that "nobody called off the war!"
He was initially awarded a Distinguished Service Cross, which was only upgraded to a Medal of Honor in 2000, 55 years after his heroic actions (likely due to latent racism at the time. Eighteen others in his unit would be similarly upgraded in 2000, years after their honorable deeds.)
If you want an even better, hilarious narrative of Inouye's courageous action, you can read it here:
So Happy Birthday to a great American!

Sunday Service
- Wednesday, July 09, 2014
A minister was planning a wedding at the close of the Sunday morning service.
After the benediction he had planned to call the couple down to be married for a brief ceremony before the congregation.
For the life of him, he couldn't think of the names of those who were to be married.
"Will those wanting to get married please come to the front?" he requested.
Immediately, nine single ladies, three widows, four widowers, and six single men stepped to the front.

Report: Bill Belichick, Greg Schiano will get coaching staffs together
|05.03.13 at 7:24 pm ET
The relationship between Bill Belichick and Greg Schiano continues to deepen.
The coaches of the Patriots and Buccaneers — who have already
demonstrated that they are total football BFF's — have apparently decided to bring together the New England and Tampa Bay coaching staffs next week in Foxboro to talk about football matters. According to Don Banks of SI.com, the staffs will get together to review coaching topics and techniques.
This comes in the wake of the Patriots' decision to draft three players (and add one undrafted free agent) from Schiano's former program at Rutgers late last month. In addition, Belichick and Schiano have become fairly frequent trade partners over the last year-plus, and Belichick's son Stephen played for Schiano while he was a member of the Rutgers football program.
The get-together between the coaching staffs won't be first time the two teams have worked together: Belichick took the Patriots down to Tampa Bay prior to their preseason game against the Bucs in 2012 to take part in joint practices, and the two sides are expected to do the same this summer in advance of a preseason contest between the two teams.

That top picture is hilarious, that guy couldn't be happier to be there, just smiling and holding up that machine gun. Second, i didn't know Mexico had female officers, no offense but this hardly seems like a woman's profession, especially these days.
I agree, the top picture is classic.
A few years ago I encountered a road block in Mexico. This was before the violence, maybe 5 years ago. It was sicarios of course and yes, in picture they do not look like much but when these sicasios have guns bigger than them and will shoot for any reason, you can bet I was sweating gallons. Then they seemed like giant ultra trained elite commandos. Fortunately they only took my planters peanuts, freaking coca cola and a pack of American smokes.
Back in the day one was more afraid to encounter police road block due to the shake down. I was shaken down for $200 that same year from a female AFI.
How times change.
Wow! Looking at the photos of those flashy and probably powerful machine guns / weapons in the world, I looked out the window and noticed a policeman walking across the street. This is NZ and definitely we don't have those similar weapons that Mexicans have in the country. NZ police carry a laser trigger in their pockets anywhere in the public, but if there's a very serious incident they'd call for SWAT and they'd come out with the guns, etc.. I know Mexicans have powerful arsenals / weapons than we have in the country.
You probably know about this, I was reading an article last year; it was about a young Mexican woman arrested by authorities guarding anti-aircraft gun and heaps of ammunition. I'm gonna to email it to BB and ask them if they can post it here. Up to them.
"You probably know about this, I was reading an article last year; it was about a young Mexican woman arrested by authorities guarding anti-aircraft gun and heaps of ammunition. I'm gonna to email it to BB and ask them if they can post it here. Up to them."
If it's out there, it's probably already in BB. Too late, BB already posted it a while back:
Opps sorry. Thanks.
Wondering, where all the seized ammunitions, arsenals, machine guns, weapons, etc go after the authorities found them? Give them away to the agents and soldiers to use for the next drug war? Put them in the museum? They probably burn all the seized drugs, but they do the same thing to the weapons?
que ojos tan bonitas
That last pic is HOT!!!!!!!
There's a reason more and more women are stepping into the role of law enforcement in Mexico. A 20 year old girl recently became the police cheif in a town down there..........the men are stay away becuase the cartels are killing them off faster than they can fill the position.
One note, I've seen alot of 37mm Cobray Flare Launchers mounted on the bottoms of AR15s. These have the appearance of M203 40mm Grenade Launchers, but are NOT the same thing, as they cannot fire standard grenades. Perhaps the cartels create special 37mm grenades, perhaps they legitimately use flares for night time operations, but most likely, they're just for

Pitiful: Only 18 Senators voted for Rand Paul's budget that would have balanced in 5 years
This morning the Senate passed Harry Reid's $1-Trillion-dollar-tax-hiking budget boondoggle on a razor thin 50-49 margin. The Senate Democrat's budget contained no deficit reduction and would never balance.
There was an alternative, however, but sadly, only 18 Senators voted for it. Rand Paul's "A Clear Vision to Revitalize America" was offered as an amendment and was overwhelmingly defeated.
Here's the list of 18 patriots who voted for Paul's budget:
- Barrasso (R-WY)
- Coburn (R-OK)
- Cornyn (R-TX)
- Crapo (R-ID)
- Cruz (R-TX)
- Enzi (R-WY)
- Flake (R-AZ)
- Inhofe (R-OK)
- Johnson (R-WI)
- Lee (R-UT)
- McConnell (R-KY)
- Moran (R-KS)
- Paul (R-KY)
- Risch (R-ID)
- Scott (R-SC)
- Sessions (R-AL)
- Shelby (R-AL)
- Vitter (R-LA)
There are a few notable conservatives missing from this list: Marco Rubio and Pat Toomey are particularly disappointing to me. Both Rubio and Toomney did vote yesterday on a budget that would balance in 10 years (essentially Paul Ryan's budget), but neither has made any public statement as to why they voted against Paul's amendment. Paul, on the other hand voted against the Ryan budget along with Ted Cruz.
Yesterday, there were a lot of amendments offered to the Senate Budget, including one by Ted Cruz to repeal Obamacare which was defeated. I recognize that there's a lot of jockeying for position going on in the Senate ranks and that not every Amendment can get full support from the Republican caucus.
My point here is not necessarily to condemn Rubio or Toomey. However, it is very disappointing to me when conservatives don't lend their voice their team mates.

HEMET, Calif.—Three members of the Hemet City Council are the targets of a recall effort by a group upset by their votes to negotiate with Riverside County for fire services.
The Press-Enterprise reports (http://bit.ly/1kzHZQF) recall papers were served to Robert Youssef, Larry Smith and Shellie Milne before the start of a council meeting Tuesday. None of the three had any comment.
The recall petition was organized by a group called Hemet Citizens For Responsible Government, which wants to keep fire services local. The members' votes last month to negotiate with Cal Fire/Riverside County Fire Department to contract out services would disband the city's 108-year-old Fire Department.
Papers were not served on council members Linda Krupa and Bonnie Wright, who voted against outsourcing fire services.

Things went from bad to a lot worse for New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez on Friday morning. After a week of being attached to a murder and being pinned as a possible suspect, police in Massachusetts have issued an arrest warrant for Hernandez after searching his home and finding that he had destroyed what they think was potentially crucial evidence before they could get there.
According to ABC News, police issued the warrant for Hernandez after finding he had intentionally destroyed his home security system before police could search his house after Hernandez was connected to a homicide investigation.
Police sources told ABC News on Thursday that a major investigative tool – the security system at Hernandez's home, which included video – had been intentionally destroyed. His cell phone was handed over to police "in pieces," and appeared to have been smashed.
To be perfectly clear, Hernandez has not been charged with murder or anything close to it. Rather, ABC News and other reports state the warrant is for obstruction of justice and not murder. That is extremely important to note given the severity of the case being investigated. However, Mike Garafolo of USA Today says that while the murder charge isn't on Hernandez's warrant, police are leaving things open to more charges.
Per @wbznewsradio, Aaron Hernandez to be charged with obstruction of justice, with the chance more changes could be added.
— Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo) June 21, 2013
Those extra charges Garafolo is talking about may still not be murder as there are plenty of things police can charge Hernandez with before they conclude he was directly connected to the murder. As it stands now, police can only assume that Hernandez is part of a murder coverup, as his destroyed security system and the fact he had his house scrubbed clean before they could get there is highly suggestive.
This situation is still unfolding and police will not be filing any serious charges against Hernandez unless they are positive they can convict him on evidence they find. So far the only thing Hernandez is guilty of is obstruction of justice and while it's very suspicious, we must reserve judgement until all the facts are in on this very serious case.

Defense Health Care:
Occupational and Environmental Health Surveillance Conducted During Deployments Needs Improvement
GAO-05-903T: Published: Jul 19, 2005. Publicly Released: Jul 19, 2005.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3407
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Following the 1991 Persian Gulf War, research and investigations into the causes of servicemembers' unexplained illnesses were hampered by a lack of servicemember health and deployment data, including inadequate occupational and environmental exposure data. In 1997, the Department of Defense (DOD) developed a militarywide health surveillance framework that includes occupational and environmental health surveillance (OEHS)--the regular collection and reporting of occupational and environmental health hazard data by the military services. This testimony is based on GAO's report, entitled Defense Health Care: Improvements Needed in Occupational and Environmental Health Surveillance during Deployment to Address Immediate and Long-term Heath Issues (GAO-05-632). The testimony presents findings about how the deployed military services have implemented DOD's policies for collecting and reporting OEHS data for Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and the efforts under way to use OEHS reports to address both immediate and long-term health issues of servicemembers deployed in support of OIF.
Although OEHS data generally have been collected and reported for OIF, as required by DOD policy, the deployed military services have used different data collection methods and have not submitted all of the OEHS reports that have been completed. Data collection methods for air and soil surveillance have varied across the services, for example, although they have been using the same monitoring standard for water surveillance. For some OEHS activities, a cross-service working group has been developing standards and practices to increase uniformity of data collection among the services. In addition, while the deployed military services have been conducting OEHS activities, they have not submitted all of the OEHS reports that have been completed during OIF. Moreover, DOD officials could not identify the reports they had not received to determine the extent of noncompliance. DOD has made progress in using OEHS reports to address immediate health risks during OIF, but limitations remain in employing these reports to address both immediate and long-term health issues. OEHS reports have been used consistently during OIF as part of operational risk management activities intended to identify and address immediate health risks and to make servicemembers aware of the risks of potential exposures. While these efforts may help in reducing health risks, DOD has not systematically evaluated their implementation during OIF. DOD's centralized archive of OEHS reports for OIF has several limitations for addressing potential long-term health effects related to occupational and environmental exposures. First, access to the centralized archive has been limited due to the security classification of most OEHS reports. Second, it will be difficult to link most OEHS reports to individual servicemembers' records because not all data on servicemembers' deployment locations have been submitted to DOD's centralized tracking database. To address problems with linking OEHS reports to individual servicemembers, the deployed military services have tried to include OEHS monitoring summaries in the medical records of some servicemembers for either specific incidents of potential exposure or for specific locations within OIF. Additionally, according to DOD and Veterans Affairs (VA) officials, no federal research plan has been developed to evaluate the long-term health of servicemembers deployed in support of OIF, including the effects of potential exposures to occupational or environmental hazards. GAO's report made several recommendations, including that the Secretary of Defense improve deployment OEHS data collection and reporting and evaluate OEHS risk management activities and that the Secretaries of Defense and Veterans Affairs jointly develop a federal research plan to address long-term health effects of OIF deployment. DOD plans to take steps to meet the intent of our first recommendation and partially concurred with the other recommendations. VA concurred with our recommendation for a joint federal research plan.

Jerry Zgoda missed the entire Kevin Garnett era, but he's back covering the Timberwolves after working the beat for their first four seasons two decades ago. In between, he covered a bit of everything: Gopher men's and women's basketball and NCAA athletics, golf, outdoor recreation, sports media and a little Vikings and Twins.
Just as important as how well Brandon Roy played in the Wolves preseason opener Wednesday was how he felt Thursday morning.
And, he said, his knees felt fine.
"Came out of it good," Roy said after playing 24 minutes against Indiana, his first action since taking a year off. "It's just a bunch of stepping stones. I was looking forward to the first game. We got a little live practice in today, felt good, went through everything. Just continuing to try to build on everything."
Kent Youngblood here. I was at practice today, with Jerry headed to Indy for Friday's game.
Roy admitted to savoring the experience Wednesday. He talked at length on the phone with family members and friends after the game was over. He said he got texts from friends and fellow players. Even members of the Pacers were expressing their happiness at Roy's return to the league. Roy spent a while talking with his friend Jamal Crawford, who is with the Los Angeles Clippers in China.
Wolves coach Rick Adelman said Roy looked very good offensively, especially considering his long lay-off. Friend and teammate Will Conroy agreed.
But Conroy sees that Roy can still get a lot better, referring to a move Roy made Wednesday night.
"He drove hard left, had Lance Stephenson on his shoulder. He bumped him off, but misses the pull-up (jumper)," Conroy said. "When he starts getting that shot back is when I'll know he's back."
Adelman said he didn't know if Roy would play in Friday's game in Indiana. The Wolves have back-to-back games Friday and Saturday.
If Roy does play Friday, Adelman said, he will start the game.
Other items from today:
--Guard Alexey Shved made his NBA debut Wednesday, coming off the bench to play nearly 21 minutes at off guard. Shved, whose English seems to improve daily, said it was a thrilling moment for him, even if it was an exhibition game.
"I didn't make points, but I made some passes for the team. We won. Everything was good," he said. "It was one of the best moments, for sure. For basketball, this is the best league, everybody wants to play. And this was the first time for me."
There had been talk of having Shved split time at both guard positions. But Adelman said he has decided to let Shved focus on the shooting guard spot for the near future.
--Luke Ridnour (back) is feeling better and was scheduled to travel with the team to Indiana. His playing status will be determined Friday. Malcolm Lee (groin) remained in the Twin Cities getting treatment.
--Adelman said he hadn't decided yet on a rotation for Friday's game.

As we plod through the last year of the current presidential term, a term that dedicated Obama supporters hope will be followed by another four years of Obama tenure, the object of their hopes remains unique in the annals of American chief executives. Although poll after poll rates his job-performance as unacceptable, his personal rating continues to be strong. His image as a "wonderful man" is tenaciously held by many.
Advertisement-content continues below
So, just what is it that accounts for the ambiguity between performance and persona? Who is this man?
Barak Obama was elected president of the United States in 2008. He was elected not because of proven statesmanship, nor for legislative contribution, nor for business know-how, nor for outstanding moral behavior, nor for demonstrated love of country. He was elected because of his rhetorical skills, his charming and ingratiating manner, and his ability to project a shimmering image that promised all things to all people. His promise of "change" and his easy, yet persuasive, delivery convinced individual citizens that he spoke directly to each of them – and to the kind of change each wanted. It mattered little to them that he spoke in broad generalities, criticizing how "bad" things were and how "good" he would make them. Slogans like "Yes, we can!", "Change we can believe in!", and "Help me take back America!" resonated with an electorate mesmerized by the trappings of leadership, whose hopes for the man far exceeded the potential that prompted them. His meager credentials consisted of eight years in the Illinois state legislature actively soliciting for the local liberal interests in his Chicago district, and one incomplete and unimpressive term as a US senator.
Now, after three and a half years of his administration, it has become clear that Mr. Obama is an ardent ideologue with a very specific agenda. He has, in a sense, made good on his promise of change. But the changes he has approved, some of which he has pressed into legislation (and some of which he has mandated through executive privilege) do not simply reform and optimize the function of government within the framework of traditional American values, but rather uproot the values themselves. He substitutes for them a government-sponsored morality, one that has no dependence on the Creator, religion, or the concept of absolute truth. Most of his ideas are predicated on a militant secular program that marginalizes religious participation in the public arena and penalizes those whose understanding of morality differ from the version that he and the government he represents endorse.
Perhaps to his credit, his campaign against organized religion and traditional morality is not disguised; rather, it is openly aggressive and unapologetically advanced. His administration no longer refers to religion as such; it is now known as "worship," a term that ignores the scope and the institutional make-up of religion. He identifies himself as a Christian but attends no church with regularity. He has disassociated himself from both the church he attended for 20 years, the United Church of Christ, and a long-time pastor of that church, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright (who has been accused, not without evidence, of anti-US sentiments). His personal code of morals permits and effectively encourages abortion, embryonic stem cell research, human egg donation for research, and euthanasia. His administration has carefully crafted words that appear to convey his opposition to human cloning, but when more closely scrutinized, they simply discourage efforts to clone a human being – thereby leaving the door wide open for the cloning process to provide "therapeutic" stem cells for medical research. All these positions are radically opposed by pro-life elements in society because they require the killing of human beings at the earliest stages of their physical development.

"Last Tango in Halifax" (Ep. 4): Search and Rescue
Caroline, tired but relieved, heads home to get ready to go into work finally. But on the way, she stops at a coffee shop, seemingly just to take a moment to think about the events of the last 24 hours, of the possibility of what was lost and then what was found. She watches a happy family reuniting on the sidewalk outside, and as a hopeful song tinkles away in the background and the golden sun flares over her face in the glorious cinematography that creates the dreamy atmosphere of this whole show, I like to believe that she's thinking, I, too, can be happy.
Indeed, when she reaches her house, the best scene of the episode ensues. John greets her with a big smile; she seems peaceful and at ease. He says he wants to tell her something; she splays herself onto a couch, exhausted, as he tells her about Judith and his newfound dedication to being honest and true. She says sure, okay, whatever; what a poor bitch. Then she asks, we can make this work, right? Making it work here for the kids? Hopeful, glad, he says, of course! Then she says, as nonchalantly as she's spoken every word for the last five minutes, "I've been seeing someone." Unsurprisingly, John's face changes.
Seeing someone? You?
Yeah, me.
She's not sure if it's completely what she wants, yet. But, she'll won't know if she doesn't try. (Exactly! Go, Caroline, go!) And no, she won't tell him who it is. That's the deal. Well, off to bed, now!
As she walks away from him and up the stairs, John descends into a blind rage. He won't live under the same roof while she's off seeing someone else! She swoops down towards his face and croons, "You know where the door is." He shouts, "Are you lying to me?" And Caroline, glorious, wonderful Caroline replies, "I don't do lies."
The shouting causes Angsty Curly-Haired Son to come out and ask what's going on. Caroline, who's reached the top of the staircase at this point, leans over the railing and yells in the most loosey goosey voice we have ever heard from her, "Hi kids!" It is a shining second of pure comedic gold!
John asks Angsty Boy if his mom has been hanging around anyone in particular at school. Angsty Boy suddenly recalls the way Caroline reached for Kate's shoulder in that room the other day, hung over her silently for just a moment too long, right before another student accused his mom of being a lesbo. He shakes his head; says no. The episode ends with him standing, alone and deeply befuddled, at the bottom of the stairs.
And last but not least, here are my favorite landscape panoramas of the episode, encompassing both light and dark at Gillian's farm. First, as the fire company arrived at the very beginning of the episode to deal with Gillian's torched lesbianmobile–still a mystery, by the way–we get to see the glittery array of lights of the surrounding towns spread out in the valley below, and while it's not the best picture of it, it's a view that's always my favorite view.
And then, before Gillian and Caroline have one of their talks, we see the dawn of a new day over the treeline.
Only two episodes left to retro-recap of this series, and I'm already dreading the finale because I don't want it to go away, ever. And as of right now, the only news I can find is that Series 2 won't air until closer to the end of 2013, at the earliest. Why do you do this to my heart, BBC?
What was your favorite part of this episode?

The car in the image above may bear a striking resemblance to the 2013 Lexus GS, but take a second look – that's actually the next-generation ES, despite its shockingly similar appearance. It's no secret that Lexus' new hourglass grille is quickly spreading across its entire model range ...
Today, Japanese automakers have an iron grip on the affordable luxury segment, but it wasn't always so. All it takes is a quick look through the MotorWeek archives to recall that there was a time when most consumers didn't realize that Lexus and Infiniti offered cars positioned below the LS 400 ...

I didn't know when I bought these that the thumb lever is adjustable. Great for lengthening the front chainring throw so you can "push" it up with one throw. These are solid well built shifters. I like the SRAM's engagement but it is not for the weak thumbed. Very solid shift. Love these shifters and can't beat them for the Chainlove price!

Crashed hard on the right side and hit my head. I was silly for about a half hour. I didn't even have time to take my hands off the handlebar. Looked at helmet and the outer shell looked good, but the inner styrofoam was cracked. It did its job and I got another one.
I do think they are sized a little "big".
