In Depth continues its coverage of the shakeup at the General Services Administration. Click here to read more about today's hearing.
Today's guests:
Larry Allen — President, Allen Federal Business Partners
Round two of congressional probes into the GSA scandal got underway on Tuesday with a hearing held by the Transportation and Infrastructure Subcommittee on Economic Development, Public Buildings and Emergency Management. The chairman of that subcommittee, Rep. Jeff Denham (R-Calif.) has threatened to tear the agency apart and put it back together again. But is there a reason to do that beyond politics? Policy analyst Larry Allen talks to In Depth about what GSA could look like after the dust settles.
Daniel Castro — Senior Analyst, Information Technology and Innovation Foundation
After abruptly pulling the plug on a procurement plan in February, the Air Force is giving tablet computers another shot. The Air Force Special Operations Command is asking for 2,725 third-generation iPads, or their technological equivalent, for its pilots to use to store digital flight charts. The previous plan was abandoned amid security concerns after the media found ASFSOC planned to use Russian software. Daniel Castro, a senior analyst at the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, talks to Francis Rose about the security concerns and what, if anything, has changed with the new plan.
This story is part of Federal News Radio's daily Cybersecurity Update. For more cybersecurity news, click here.
Tom Shoop — Editor-in-Chief, Government Executive
Between the GSA hearings and allegations of Secret Service agents gone wild in Colombia, the image of federal employees has taken a beating this week. A lot of people are wondering: Are these incidents isolated or chronic? We turn to regular guest Tom Shoop from Government Executive for analysis.
John Adler — President, Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association
Trouble is brewing for members of President Barack Obama's Secret Service detail, who have been sent home after allegations of raucous parties with prostitutes in Colombia. We talk to Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association President Jon Adler about what the investigation process will look like and what kind of disciplinary action the agents may be facing.

"My dreams came true when I found you, My miracle." I know I'm still young to say this but honestly I wish and Pray that she's the one. The one I'll be spending my eternity with, The one I'll be marrying. I hope her and I will be like those couples who fell in love when they were still teenagers and still going strong till now. Despite of all the fights,misunderstandings,distance,jealousy,mistrust it's always worth it in the end. Who cares if we dont see each other every second, who cares if we don live in the same city or state all that matter is that her voice is the last and first thing i hear at night and morning, the only person who gives me butterflies at the littlest things, the one who will do anything just to show me she loves me and no one else, the one who's proud to call me her baby. They say the best love is the unexpected one's and trust me its true cos when her and I first met was back in freshmen year and she was just a dream girl to me I never thought we'll end up going out but look at us now 28 months and still running. Follow your heart and just pray and believe that someone out there is right for you and like I said I hope and Pray that she's the one for me already because I honestly don't wanna start all over again looking for a love like this. She's my girlfriend bestfriend homie and sometimes enemy but i love her with all my heart and I'd give anything for her to be my lifetime partner. Happy 28th monthsary Kimberly Crystal Basa Guittap I love you and I miss you princess<3 Taken with instagram

Polls give GOP edge in critical states
But Republicans have yet to lock up any of the key battleground races, the polls show.
College revokes Walsh's degree
Army War College concludes its plagiarism investigation of the Montana senator.
Montana candidate touts newness
Amanda Curtis says her campaign will champion the interests of the working class.
Montana Dems pick Senate nominee
Delegates vote for Amanda Curtis as their replacement after Sen. John Walsh dropped out.
Walsh's replacement chosen Aug. 16
Because Walsh dropped out, it falls to the state central committee to pick a new nominee.
Montana's Walsh quits Senate race
He will remain in the Senate through the end of his term, which ends in early January.

His "Bring Jobs Home Act" is nearly identical in wording to what Debbie Stabenow wrote in 2012.
Walsh plagiarized War College thesis
"At least a quarter" of it was from other sources.
Walsh: Iraq situation 'troubling'
The only Iraq War veteran in the Senate questions President Barack Obama's strategy.

The core of any implementation of a document and records system, ECM, call if what you will, is end user take up.
I was fortunate to be part of a meeting of our community of local government Objective users this week. Hobsons Bay City Council gave a brief but punchy presentation of the way they had gone about their implementation. Lots of ticks in all the right boxes. Good process, paid attention to the cultural change, ongoing support of people as they got used to the new system and committing to monitoring success.
The end result speaks for itself. The old network shared drives have been 'read only' since shortly after go live and will soon be shut down entirely. This puts them in an elite position in local government. They would be the only Council, or one of very few, in Australia or New Zealand to have achieved this.
I've seen too many implementations of ECM technology that aren't taken up across the organisation. So the powerful search, retrieval, access management, workflow and many other capabilities that Council has purchased are brought to bear on only a fraction of the information in the organisation.
Hobsons Bay. Getting real value from the investment they've made!

Top 5 Most Popular Cricket Players in the World
There are some wonderful cricket players who play the sport all over the world. However, some of these players are true world stars. Here are 5 players who every cricket fan knows about:
1. Sachin Tendulkar
He is by far the most famous cricket player in the world. Known as the "little master", Sachin is famous for being the best batsman in the modern era. He holds various records, such as being the only player to score 200 in a One Day International game. The crowning moment of his career was India's world cup win last year.Get more information here. http://cricketnext.in.com/live/news/celebrate-the-phenomenon-called-sachin-and-anand/66270-13.html
2. Kevin Pieterson
Born in South Africa, but playing for England, Pieterson is never without controversy. However, it is his skills with the bat that make him so loved both inside and outside England.
3. Shahid Afridi
The pin up boy for Pakistan cricket, Afridi burst onto the scene 10 years ago by scoring the fastest 100 (off 37 balls) in cricket history. While he is definitely inconsistent, he has proven himself a regular match winner.
4. Ricky Ponting
One of the greatest servants to Australian cricket. A wonderful batsman and a great skipper in his heyday, Ponting has won everything there was to win with the national team.
5. Jacques Kallis
This veteran South African all rounder is one of the best players in the world, to this day. While he has never won major honors with his country, he is still regarded as a top class performer.

Bidding on a product you want can usually can make you feel happy. However, it is important to keep your cool so you do not go over your limit. If your local bank unexpectedly gives you an email requesting you to ultimately update your sensitive information on the internet, disregard the request. It might be that this email sender is really a cyber criminal. In cases when something is absolutely important, your personal bank ought to phone you, not send you an e-mail. If you are searching for discounted items, you then definitely must keep an eye on discount coupons. Vouchers are everywhere within theweb provided that you have an understanding of where the best places to look. Should you be using an internet payment collection service to spend on a product which the dealer requires you to utilize but are not really acquainted with it, it could be best if you first research regarding this company. Calling their customer care could make or break up the transaction, specially if no one responds or if the particular customer support agent is not professional and unconvincing.
There are actually vendors who charge you quite a lot on shipping costs. Always check to see who pays for shipping and delivery fees. This way, you are able to prevent putting in a bid on a product that charges you for shipping costs. Phishing e-mails trick naive website visitors to click on the urls they give, telling them that it's going to bring them directly to the site of their own reputable bank or investment company. Recognizing phishing e-mails could be not difficult if you are made aware of the tactics, and in case an e-mail looks suspicious, don't click on any link they give. When you find the website which offers the cheapest price on the merchandise or goods you are interested in, be sure to examine whether or not the site is real or not. If you are buying goods for personal use provided by a distant internet site, talk to the seller if you still pay duties apart from the retail price of the item and its particular shipping fees. Moreover, confirm with your dealer if your package will likely be reported correctly and properly. Be advised that clicking the item links on this blog site will take you to their corresponding product page at the ebay webshop.
When making your payment online, make sure you are currently landed on the safe and secure webpage indicated as "https" on the address bar. If you have a parcel coming from overseas, ensure it is stated totally and accurately. Otherwise, you're allowing the customs agents to keep or seize your parcel. When choosing a shop, you must search for one that offers great prices, excellent customer support, online order tracking, reasonable return policies, reasonable shipping fees as well as the web site must be simple to use, fast, accurate, and has a good search function. If anyone outside the auction site offers you regarding a better offer on the product you want, decline it. It's suggested never to be enticed with these offers as there's a risk that the item they're offering is a counterfeit, or you might not get the item you purchased from their site. It may help you save immensely if you ever have a tendency to purchase products monthly or quarterly as offers might turn up during these times.

Windows 7 Enterprise x
Random BSOD/Freeze while gaming/browsing the internet + other errors?
Alright, so i've had my computer for quite a while now and im starting to see a few errors here and there. I've tried several things to fix my problems but none of them seem to have worked.
Let me begin by describing the issue.
When i'm playing a game or just watching something on youtube my computer will either BSOD or freeze for a few seconds and then say: "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver , Version 301.24 stopped responding and has been recovered".
furthermore whenever my computer crashes it seems to have a very hard time starting up again. The screens usually go black after the windows logo has appeared, and after that a hard shut down is required and if im lucky ill be able to login.
Im thinking its a driver related problem seeing that i can boot up in safe mode with no problems?
*Edit* Is there anyway to move this thread to the crashes and debugging section?
Additional information:
I am running Windows 7 Enterprise x64 with service pack 1.
I'm using two Nvidia Gtx470 graphic cards with the newest drivers.
I have tried ALL the drivers for these cards and i have performed a clean install of them, though without any luck.
The problems started after i updated my driver to a newer version.
I have tried lowering my GPU, which didn't help.
I have been playing around in the nvidia controle panel. (Lowering the PhysX quality etc)
It's not my computer overheating.
It might have something to do with SLI seeing that when my SLI is activated its more prone to crash.

Cristiano Ronaldo records own-goal in Real Madrid's shock defeat to Granada
2/3/13 in Soccer | JamesSmith23 | 1413 respect
Jose Mourinho stood helpless by the sidelines as Real Madrid lost 1-0 to relegation-threatened Granada on Saturday. A toothless performance from Real Madrid's attack saw the La Liga champions falter in front of one of the most mediocre team in the league.
The unsettled Bernabeu boss confessed his men were "horrible" and "tired" against Granada. To top it all, Real Madrid themselves provided Granada with the winner when their crown jewel Cristiano Ronaldo headed the ball past goalkeeper Diego Lopez on a corner kick in the 22nd minute of the game.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored the first own goal of his professional career as Real Madrid fell to their fifth La Liga defeat this season. Jose Mourinho's side are now 16 points behind La Liga leaders Barcelona. The defending champions are seven points behind second-placed Atletico Madrid, which means Real Madrid could end the season third-placed.
"I think the result is fair. There have been too many defeats," Jose Mourinho said in his post-game press conference. "Granada did their job, they scored their goal. They defended in the second half with all of their heart and soul. They have a new coach, new players and had a great night of football here with Real Madrid in front of them. They did everything that they could to get this result.
"We should have scored a goal but because of the great effort that Granada made, I think that the three points have gone to the team that deserved them.
"The negative result is always the most important. We didn't even manage a draw. That is what bothers me about the result, but the team's first half performance bothers me a lot, it was horrible. In the second half we dominated and we had a chance to equalize but it was not enough to satisfy me."
Jose Mourinho launched an attack against reporters as well for questioning his tactics and methods. The Portuguese accepted blame for Real Madrid's loss, but didn't consider himself as the sole reason behind the defeat.
"The buck stops with me. You lot always say that same thing," Jose Mourinho said. "When we win and we play well then it happens on its own but when we don't it is the coach's responsibility. Today we lost and did not play well. Today it didn't happen on its own, today I'm the one responsible."

It sounds like the opening to a television forensics drama. On a sunny September day in 1991, a German couple hiking through the Alps make a gruesome discovery.
Initially, the corpse partially jutting out of the melting ice is thought to be from a recent mountaineering accident. But on closer inspection, a far more stunning revelation emerges. The body is that of a murder victim; a murder that transpired five millennia ago.
Dated to around 5,300 years old, the remarkably well-preserved Neolithic Iceman came to be known as Ötzi, after the Ötztal region of the Austrian-Italian border where he was found.
In the years since his discovery, he has been subject to countless, delicate examinations. Now, three recent studies give us the most definitive account of how the Iceman came to be slain.
"The unique thing about this find is that a man has been preserved in full dress with all his equipment," says Angelika Fleckinger, director of the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano, Italy, where Ötzi resides today.
It's not only the Iceman's age, but the 'wet' nature of the mummification process that makes him so scientifically valuable, she adds. "The tissue is therefore elastic; a lucky circumstance, as some scientific examinations would otherwise have been impossible."
"Ötzi is much older than any other glacier mummy and is a very rare case in which mummification took place by dehydration before the body became embedded in glacier ice," say researchers led by Klaus Oeggl of the University of Innsbruck, Austria, in the journal Quaternary Science Reviews.
"Even the food residue in his digestive tract was very well preserved, and a test sample provided evidence of his diet, environment, and season of death."
Oeggl's team have used the remains of Ötzi's last meals (including ibex, grains and red deer meat) and tiny traces of different pollens, to reveal his whereabouts over his last 33 hours with surprising clarity.
"Ötzi's movements in his last days from sub-alpine regions down to the valley bottoms and then up to alpine regions again, as well as his lethal injury by an arrowhead, confirm that Ötzi's last days were hectic and violent, which corroborates parts of [the] disaster theory," they write.
This disaster theory, first proposed by the University of Innsbruck's Konrad Spindler in 1995, purports that Ötzi came into conflict with others several days before his death, and sustained knife wounds to his hand. He then fled into the mountains and was in the process of fashioning a longbow and quiver of arrows to defend himself.
The precise cause of Ötzi's death has been debated for years, but in the November 2007 issue of the Journal of Archaeological Science, a team including radiologist Paul Gostner of the Bolzano General Hospital in Italy argue that Ötzi was almost certainly killed by the stone arrowhead embedded in his shoulder.
First detected by X-ray in 2001, the severity of the injury it caused had been debated – but a full CT (computed tomography) scan of the mummy has now confirmed that the arrowhead tore through a major artery. The experts say this would have led to internal bleeding and a rapid, shock-related cardiac arrest.
So who killed the Iceman and why? Archaeological sleuths Gostner and Andreas Lippert of the University of Vienna, Austria, recently put forward a new scenario in the periodical Germania – where they report that Ötzi also received a blow to the head.
Putting together all the pieces of the puzzle from the individual motes of forensic evidence, the experts argue that Ötzi was shot in the back by a distant assailant at a lower elevation.
He was then struck on the head and fell on his back, where he died. Finally, the murderer rolled Ötzi onto his front, with his arm folded under his body, and tugged the arrowshaft from where it was lodged his back.
There the Iceman remained for over 5,000 years, with his arm twisted under his body, and his longbow still leaning against the wall of the gully. It took the melting of the Tisenjoch glacier – which had been gliding over the protected hollow – to bring poor Ötzi back into the light of day.
Specific results from the investigation:
Age: Upon examining a copper axe found with the Iceman, archaeologist Konrad Spindler immediately identified him as at least 4,000 years old. Subsequent carbon dating proved that the iceman was in fact one of the oldest mummies ever discovered and had lived some 5,300 years ago.
Hair: Ötzi's hair fell out after he died but pieces of it were found on his clothing and at the site of his discovery. It was wavy, dark brown and about nine centimetres long. Traces of arsenic and metal within the hair shaft suggest he was involved with smelting copper.
Eyes: Ötzi's eyes were blue. They remain today.
Teeth: Wolfgang Müller of the Australian National University in Canberra has analysed the isotopic composition of strontium, oxygen and lead in Ötzi's teeth to show that his likely birthplace was near the modern town of Brixen, Italy – but that his adult life was spent in the neighbouring Vinschgau or Schnals valleys.
Lungs: These are blackened with soot from much time spent sitting in front of open fires.
X-ray examination and CT scan: In 2001, radiologist Paul Gostner revealed that Ötzi has a flint arrowhead embedded in his left shoulder, which was the first evidence of his murder. In 2005 a CT (computed tomography) scan showed the arrowhead had severed the left dorsal subclavian artery – a major blood vessel. Further investigations have now revealed a severe trauma to the skull and likely contusion to the brain.
Intestines: The contents, including ibex, red deer meat, grains and pollen, have been used to reconstruct the last 33 hours of Ötzi's life. Chips of mica suggest the wheat and grains he ate had been ground down; specks of charcoal may have come from making bread and baking it in an open fire.
Hand: Ötzi's left hand has a number of partially healed deep lacerations, likely inflicted several days before death. Experts argue that the injuries bear the mark of self-defence and suggest he was involved in conflict.
Fingernails: The first of two fingernails found at the site suggests Ötzi may have been ill. Characteristic lines across the nail suggest his immune system was compromised three times in the months prior to his death. The second nail has yet to be analysed.
Age at death: A small sample of femur bone, measured for characteristic changes that occur with age, suggest Ötzi was around 46 years of age. He was in good condition for a man of his era.
Tattoos: The body is etched with over 50 tattoos, created by rubbing charcoal into fine incisions. Fine groups of parallel lines on his back and legs may have been administered as a form of pain relief.
Injuries: Healed injuries from earlier in life include broken ribs and a cyst on his toe caused by frostbite
Forensic botany: Thirty different types of pollen have been found in Ötzi's intestines. Particularly prevalent was that of the hop hornbeam tree, which only grows south of the Alps. It flowers in spring, suggesting a rough date of death. No less than 80 species of mosses and liverworts were also found on and around the mummy.
Intestines: The contents, including ibex, red deer meat, grains and pollen, have been used to reconstruct the last 33 hours of Ötzi's life. Chips of mica suggest the wheat and grains he ate had been ground down; specks of charcoal may have come from making bread and baking it in an open fire.
DNA: Limited analysis of mitochondrial DNA in 1994 confirmed Ötzi is related to living inhabitants of central Europe. Albert Zink, the scientific director of the Institute for Mummies and the Iceman in Bolzano, says that much more detailed work will soon investigate both his mitochondrial and genomic DNA.
Bearskin-soled shoes: Made of various materials including deerskin and hay, Ötzi's are the second oldest known shoes. Experiments by archaeologist Anne Reichert reveal that a leather strip running across the sole provided a surprisingly good grip on icy ground, but the soles were not waterproof. Aside from shoes, Ötzi's other clothing included leggings, a loincloth, a belt and pouch made of calf or goat's leather, a grass cape and a bearskin cap. The leggings would have covered only the calf and the thigh, and were secured to the belt and shoes with deerskin laces.
Copper axe: Thermal neutrons and high energy X-rays from a particle accelerator were used to non-invasively determine the structure of copper within the axe. This showed that the blade had been repeatedly sharpened, and was well used.
Flint dagger and sheath: Ötzi was found still clutching a 13-centimetre-long flint dagger – the most complete known example from that era.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Former Kentucky State University President Raymond M. Burse is returning as interim president next month.
Burse will step in to lead the school following current President Mary Evans Sias' announcement May 9 that she is retiring.
Media report that Burse's appointment runs through next June, or until a permanent president is chosen.
Burse was president of the university from 1982 to 1989. He went on to become an executive at General Electric Co., retiring in 2012.
He is a 1973 graduate of Centre College, where he earned a Rhodes Scholarship and studied at the University of Oxford, majoring in organic chemistry. He graduated from Harvard Law School in 1978.
"Raymond is uniquely qualified to serve the institution at this juncture," Karen Bearden, chair of the KSU Board of Regents, said in a statement. "His knowledge of KSU, his commitment to higher education and his executive leadership experience will be assets during the 2014-2015 academic year."
In the statement, Burse said, "It is indeed an honor to be called on to serve KSU in this capacity and I look forward to the challenges and opportunities to help move KSU forward."

The paper presented is aimed at demonstrating the primary principals behind classical conditioning. By using a real life example the textbook theory can be applied to a hypothetical patient suffering from a sleep disorder possibly somewhat brought on by a learnt' experience.
My female friend expresses the symptoms of alertness and insomnia commonly prior to one specific action; brushing her teeth. The scenario given dictates that the only other time my friend brushes her teeth is prior to leaving for work in the morning and furthermore the text also highlights that her working life has relatively recently become more stressful.
Atkinson (1980) brings in to play the fact that stress is quite likely to be the cause of the insomnia and alertness. By focusing specifically on Bond and McConkey's (2001) theory: " Classical conditioning can be defined as the pairing of some fixed temporal relationship of a neutral stimulus and a stimulus capable of regularly and reliably eliciting a response " we can potentially see that the night time stressfulness could be as a result of her becoming classically conditioned.
To understand exactly how my friend has learned to display characteristics of stress in the evenings, prior to sleep, we must familiarize ourselves with the basic principals of classical conditioning.
There are four definitions, which must first be made clear; Wayne Written (2001) explains:
1)The Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS) A stimulus that evokes an unconditioned response without prior conditioning. In this scenario specifically the UCS would be my friend leaving for work in the mornings. 2)The Unconditioned Response (UCR) Is an unlearned reaction to an unconditioned stimulus that occurs without previous conditioning. In this case the response is quite obviously the stressful feeling my friend endures.
Adopting Wayne Written's (2001) description of our like like scenario, so far Fig 1.1 below shows the...

Moncton. COULD YOU POSSIBLY HAVE ANY MORE SNOW???? Jeez Louise. We awoke in the morning to what seemed like blizzard conditions. Or as the locals would say, 'Just another Sunday in February'. Kuddos to our bus driver Bud for getting us there in one piece. And to the folks that run the fixed link to PEI for keeping it open so that we could make the drive happen. Note to self - let's tour in the summer next time!
The snow continued all day/night getting up to about 30 cms. This poor guy on his park bench could barely read his kindle it was so snowy!
But the Twice Removers could not be stopped. Neither snow, nor rain, nor freezing temeratures can stop these rugged gentlemen of rock. Guys - you are the true heros… along with other actual heros.
Although the streets were essentially empty pre show,
bodies began to emerge yeti-style through the mists of time and by 9PM we had a full house. And that full house got a straight flush of ROCK!
Onward to an exciting day off. We earned it!
Oodle Boodle!

Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em (Atari 2600) review
"On a platform where games were supposed to be simple and addictive, mucking up something like control response can make a huge difference. It's because of this that Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em isn't worth playing. Never mind the silly premise."

Soldiers honored in solemn ceremonies
May 27, 2014
Warm temperatures didn't keep many from celebrating Memorial Day, whether it was Saturday at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Corydon, where Old Capitol VFW Post 2950 conducted its annual Memorial Day service, or Monday in Elizabeth for a parade that concluded at Rose Hill Cemetery with a program.

At Cedar Hill, Granville (Granny) Herthel welcomed those gathered, followed by the singing of the national anthem and an invocation by William Rainey of Byrneville.
"Many have left country farms and small towns when called up ... many were lucky to have come home," Rainey said. "We're here today to honor those that didn't."
Josh Welch read the names of each Harrison County serviceman that did not make it home from their respective wars.
Herthel then expressed the importance of Memorial Day.
"Sacrifice is meaningless without remembrance," he said. "Consciousness demands that all citizens be aware of and recall on special occasions the deaths of their fellow countrymen during war time. Far too often, the nation as a whole takes for granted the freedoms all Americans enjoy. Those freedoms were paid for with the lives of others few of us actually knew. That's why they are all collectively remembered on one special day. This should be regarded as a civic obligation. For this is a national debt that can only be truly repaid by individual Americans. By honoring the nation's war dead, we preserve their memory and thus their service and sacrifice."
He said the movement to a three-day weekend instead of recognizing Memorial Day each May 30 has no doubt contributed greatly to the general public's nonchalant observance of Memorial Day.
"Changing the date merely to create three-day weekends has undermined the very meaning of the day," he said.
Herthel reiterated that all war deaths should be remembered, not just the ones from the major wars.
"No American death is too insignificant to remember when that life is lost at the behest of society," he said. "GI's do not choose where they serve or what foreign policy they must enforce."
To conclude, Herthel quoted former president and general James A. Garfield who spoke at the first national memorial observance in 1868.
"They summed up and perfected, by one supreme act, the highest virtues of men and citizens. For love of country, they accepted death and thus resolved all doubts, and made immortal their patriotism and virtue."
The VFW hosted a lunch following the ceremony.
Shady spots in downtown Elizabeth were the place to be Monday for the parade, emceed by Bob Walsh, and Memorial Day tribute, with the Rev. Richard (Dick) Goodwin presiding.
During an opening prayer, Goodwin thanked God for those who had served and continue to serve in the military and for those men and women who were willing and who are willing to give their lives to keep America free.
Susie Eastridge led everyone in reciting the pledge of allegiance and the singing of the national anthem, then Lee Cable of Elizabeth spoke about three of the area's own heroes: Arville Wiseman, Joe Kingsley and Jesse Paschal.
"These stories make us aware, help us understand what they had to go through and make us proud to even know these men and have them as neighbors," Cable said.
World War II was underway when Wiseman was sent to Camp Robinson, Ark., for basic training. He later trained at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri before being assigned to the 276th Infantry of the 70th Division. His company was called the "Trailblazers," and Wiseman was a machine gunner.
Wiseman was taken to the front lines, where his group joined the Battle of the Bulge.
At one point, Wiseman was with four other soldiers, including a lieutenant, when an incoming bomb came in close. The blast tore the machine gun out of his hands and he never saw it again. Wiseman was wounded in the leg and the other four soldiers were down and he thought they were all dead. One, the lieutenant, was still alive.
Germans kept them pinned down for several hours until help arrived. Wiseman was taken to a hospital. The boot and sock on his right leg were embedded into the wound and everything was frozen together due to the deep snow and below-zero temperatures.
However, doctors were able to save his leg and, several weeks later, Wiseman left the hospital and went to another company. He found out that his old company was nearby, so he went AWOL and rejoined them. He received a scolding from a captain but was allowed to stay.
Following close on the heels of World War II was the Korean War.
Kingsley, who grew up near Laconia, was drafted into the Army in August 1952. He was at Fort Knox, Ky., for eight weeks for basic training then spent four weeks training as a tank driver. He was in Korea 16 days later.
Kingsley was a part of the 69th Ammo Company, assigned to a tank and ordered to guard the stockpiles of ammunition the troops needed for the battle taking place at nearby Papasan Ridge.
During that time, American spotter planes would fly over the area and drop flares to light up enemy positions. Those planes were followed by others that would use the light to drop bombs. At one point, the spotter planes confused a company of American troops for enemy soldiers and bombs were dropped, killing 269 U.S. soldiers.
"I was one of the lucky ones," Kingsley told Cable. "I had 11 inches of steel protecting me in my tank. I never got a scratch the whole time I was there. But a lot of our boys died, and a lot suffered horrible wounds. A few people refused to call it a war, labeling it as a conflict instead. But 54,246 American soldiers were killed there, and 103,284 were wounded. There are still 8,177 soldiers missing in action in Korea. I'd call that a war. Wouldn't you?"
The next battleground for American soldiers was in Vietnam.
Paschal was drafted into the Army in 1965. After training at Fort Knox, he went to radio school and learned International Morse Code and other communications procedures. He signed up for airborne training and was sent to Fort Benning, Ga., before being assigned to the 502 Strike Force and sent to Vietnam in 1966.
The radios used by the Army were short-ranged and, when troops were too far away for radio contact, a relay team would be sent out halfway to relay information back to headquarters. Paschal and two other soldiers would stay out for weeks, living in a small, concealed tent, where they received and transmitted vital information about the enemy.
It was during one of those assignments that Paschal killed his first enemy soldier. Hearing a noise not too far from their tent one night, he saw the outline of a person. He shouted for the person to identify himself. Instead of an answer, the person shot at Paschal and he returned fire.
"Some of all that stays with you," Paschal said. "Some were trying their best to kill me, and I killed them. But I was lucky. I was never hit. There were some close calls, and I received some shrapnel, but I made it out in one piece.
"As bad as it was," Fink told Cable, " If Uncle Sam called today, I'd have to go."
After Cable's presentation, Michelle Kingsley, postmaster at Elizabeth, gave each of the honorees a framed print of Purple Heart stamps.
Goodwin had all past and present servicemen and women come forward to be recognized. Then he asked for all police officers, firefighters, emergency service workers and dispatchers to join them. Members of the American Legion Post 379 had a 21-gun salute, and there was a playing of "Taps" as the ceremony came to a close.

Don't get carried away with impractical shoes: ask yourself, what would Olivia Pope do? She'd buy these nude Louboutin pumps, that's what she'd do. Only, you are doing this better, because you are getting other people to buy them for you.
I wrote this piece about non-baby showers a couple months ago, but it just went live on The Hairpin today, two hours after an old friend announced her pregnancy on Facebook. I want to go on record as saying that this was not the internet publishing equivalent of subtweeting, and I look forward to buying my friend a giraffe-shaped diaper pail or a stars-and-moons mobile or whatever else her heart/registry desires.
My 2013 resolutions were pretty simple—and aside from "stop biting my nails," I actually stuck to them—so I'm going for simplicity (mostly) again for 2014:
1. Read more. I have a ridiculous number of books in my apartment that I bought and promptly set aside; must get through those this year,…
Reblogging to say I should probably join Amy in the "look more put together on a regular basis" resolution, because one of my favorite stories from 2013 was the day my co-workers thought I had gotten a new haircut, or new glasses, or lost weight, when in fact the Dramatic Mystery Change in my appearance was that I was not wearing a cardigan. I won't promise to give up cardigans, because I can't, but I can try to look more put together on a regular basis. (Something something casual new media workplaces women in their thirties post-grunge Liz Lemon.)
And for anyone thinking of drinking less or not at all in the new year: I pretty much stopped drinking in 2013 and I feel fine! It was not nearly as difficult as I thought it would be. Don't get me wrong, I still go to bars, because bars are great. I enjoy a small quantity of expensive Scotch once in a while (drinking less means drinking better), and if I really want something with dinner I'll have a glass of wine or a dry cider, singular, maybe once a month. Other than that my new go-to "cocktail" is seltzer with bitters and lemon. It is not quite the same as an actual amaro cocktail, and definitely not the same as a good Manhattan (miss u, Manhattans), but it is delicious and nobody will ask why you're just drinking water. If you have access to fancy artisanal bitters, this is a great way to taste them.
I also got a Sodastream in 2013, and have had some excellent early results with homemade seltzer and simple syrups (rhubarb, ginger, vanilla). In the new year I plan to experiment with maple syrup, fennel seeds and black pepper. Not all together, though who knows, maybe that would work. PS. I went to Colicchio & Sons for the first time last summer; there's a selection of non-alcoholic cocktails on the dining room menu, and the fresh cucumber thing I ordered was the envy of the entire table, even among those drinking booze.
Mr. Carter, who has traveled the world as an author and human rights activist since the end of his presidency, said he would rely on many of his own experiences as fodder for the book.
"Whenever possible, I'll use my personal observations and experiences, such as a trip around Africa with Bill Gates Sr. and his wife," Mr. Carter wrote.
Even Tui's disappearance is a Macguffin, less a story element than a metaphor for the kind of armed resistance to male hegemony that constitutes the central idea of Ms. Campion's body of work.

Oh yeah so I interviewed Amy Poehler. It was pretty awesome. Here's an exchange from it:
Time Out New York: So if the cast of Parks and Rec were dropped into Game of Thrones, who would be whom?
Amy Poehler: Well, come on, I would be Khaleesi [Daenerys Targaryen], of course. Ben would…
Read this excellent, hilarious interview even if you, like me, do not give an airborne fig about Game of Thrones.
What makes NPR reporters' names so particularly mellifluous? There's that pleasing alliteration — Allison Aubrey, Louisa Lim, Carl Kassell, Susan Stamberg. And it's hard to match those mouth-filling double-barrelled names. Think Ofeibea Quist-Arcton, Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson, Chana Joffe-Walt, Lourdes Garcia-Navarro, Dina Temple-Raston, Charlayne Hunter-Gault. According to one study, women in the arts and entertainment are more likely to keep their names; the authors hypothesized that their maiden names had already become "akin to a 'brand'."
I'm not married and I don't have a 'brand,' but I'm posting this because a) It's true, NPR reporters have the best names; b) 'Double-barrelled' is such a great term for it, so much better than 'hyphenated.'
From here on out you may refer to me as a 'double-barreller.'
Women in any position of power or outspokenness, people are just uncomfortable with it, men and women alike. It just freaks them the fuck out. I may sound like a megalomaniac, but I feel like I'm equipped to become a great, memorable comedian, if I keep working my ass off and staying at the pace I'm at, and I feel a responsibility to do that because of the women who have done it before me, and the ones who need to do it after me.
Four blocks
1. A man is heading in my direction, weaving slightly. I can't make out his features. He's wearing a parka, hood up. The street is dark and quiet. He weaves closer. I can hear him mumbling to himself but I can't make out any words. "Move quickly," I tell myself, but not soon enough, and he has me cornered, my back against a utility pole, his body blocking my way. Maybe I should be scared, but instead I'm angry. I am about to push past him and then I see he is reaching one hand into his jacket. I stop being angry and start being scared. He pulls out a piece of hard candy in a green foil wrapper. "Take a piece of candy," he says. I don't make eye contact. I don't say anything. He waves the candy under my nose. I keep my gaze cast down but I sidestep him, continue on my way, only faster.
2. A man crosses the street toward me. I see him out of the corner of my eye. He's tall, young, strong-looking, carrying a black plastic bag. He's wearing a parka, too. We all are. It's winter. I can feel myself tensing, and hoping. Maybe he's getting into one of the cars parked along the curb. Maybe he's detouring up the silent residential street I just passed. "Hey pretty baby," he hisses. "Hey pretty. Hey. You're gorgeous. What's wrong with you? It's a compliment." I am wearing my thick winter jacket that comes down to my knees, my floppy knit hat, jeans, flat boots. This would make me laugh, if it were funny. He follows me for the rest of the block, getting a little too close, hissing and making kissing sounds. I am lucky: there is a restaurant on the corner, full of light and people. I stop and pretend to read the menu, and some people walk past, and he disappears.
3. A little girl, maybe five, comes careering around a corner. She is wearing a long pink coat and mittens and a pink backpack with a large fabric daisy attached to it. She laughs like this: "Ahh haha hahahahaha hahahahaha haha HA!" Her mother is trudging a few paces behind, weary, a grocery bag and an oversized purse in her arms. The little girl nearly runs smack into me. She looks up at me and grins. She knows her mother can't stop her, and neither can I. She takes off down the block, hopping and dodging.
4. I think about instinct and how we interpret it, how much is nature and how much is nurture, or environment. My nature is not to look down or away. My nature is never to run. My instinct tells me to fight, to dig in, to make the other person blink first. It takes a tremendous amount of willpower to refrain from flipping the bird and unleashing a string of profanities. Willpower, actually, doesn't even work. It is only the knowledge that the man might have a violent streak, or a knife, or worse yet a gun, that restrains me. I think about this and these words, willpower and restraint, and why they apply to me in the first place. I am just walking. I am so caught up in these thoughts that I don't notice the man in the doorway until I am upon him; I have been unconsciously sticking close to the buildings. I see his face under his hooded jacket. I see him notice me. There is no one else in sight. My body does that thing where it feels like I have dry ice in my veins instead of blood. In an instant, I am more animal than human. He knows, I think, panicking. He knows he caught me. The man smiles and inclines his chin, a casual how-do, pedestrian. I rearrange my face so it looks less stricken. How-do, man in doorway. Me? Oh, I'm fine. You just startled me, that's all. You just took me by surprise.

You don't win anything.
My brother: Do you want a diet soda or something?
Me: No thanks. I've been thinking about it and are diet sodas really any better for you than regular soda? Yea, they have no calories but you're consuming an artificial sweetener made with chemicals. At least sugar is just sugar. In the end, I decided the best thing to do was to stick with—
My brother: (very excitedly) Diet!
Me: …Water.
My brother: Oh.

Verrazano went into Kentucky Derby week as an early favorite, but he exited as a mere also ran, finishing 14th in the field of 20; his undefeated record of four-for-four forgotten. However, the More Than Ready colt gained some redemption when he returned in mid-June to win the Grade 2 Pegasus by 9 ¼ lengths. The sloppy track and crowded field that Verrazano faced in the Kentucky Derby were unkind, but he shouldn't face either problem on Sunday. He's been installed as the morning-line favorite at odds of 9-5.
Verrazano's nemesis in the first part of the year also returns from a disappointing Kentucky Derby finish. Rudy Rodriguez's Vyjack finished 18th, beaten 52 lengths in the Kentucky Derby. He returned in the Belmont and finished 8th, 10 lengths behind winner Palace Malice. Rodriguez entered Vyjack in the Grade 2 Jim Dandy at Saratoga on Saturday, but opted to try him in the Haskell when he drew post 10. Although, the Haskell draw put him in post one, the buzz is that he will run in the Sunday stakes. Vyjack would have to get back to the form he showed in early March to be competitive with this group, but two recent bullet works show that may be a possibility.
Dallas Stewart's Golden Soul surprised the bettors to close sharply and finish just 2 ½ lengths behind Orb in the Kentucky Derby. His ninth place finish in the Belmont Stakes was disappointing for this grandson of the greats Sadler's Wells and Mr. Prospector. He'd be a surprise to win the Haskell, but the nearly two months rest since the Belmont should be to his liking and reports from Stewart's barn confirm the horse is ready.
The complete field, from the rail out, is Vyjack, Pick of the Litter, Golden Soul, Power Broker, Oxbow, Micromanage, and Verrazano.
The race is the 13thon Sunday's Monmouth Park card with a scheduled post time of 6:18 EST. It can be seen on HRTV and TVG.

|Thanx a ton Tyler King; you kill it!!! I have long wondered about the actual climbing in this long, lost forgotten but beeeautiful cirque in the Wasatch. I have been in the cirque multiple times to ski the aprons and surrounding slopes, but have seriously wondered about the quality of rock up there and accuracy of routes after hearing a few sandbag stories of Giggles. I'm going to make it a point to get there this coming summer. Thanks again; you rawk!!!

Does anyone know anything about the canyon being closed? I went up there last summer to do some climbing on a wall just 45 min up from the mouth and we had to hop a gate that said the canyon was closed for water shed reasons if i remember correctly.
Also how long of a hike is it to the cirque? and is there a guide book or anything or is there really only two established routes up there?

I was there a couple of weeks ago and couldn't remember if the sign used to be there of if it's new. The gate has always been there. The closure is the same as for LCC/BCC, ie no canines (see here) unless something changed recently. The language on the sign is ambiguous at best.
The cirque is a ways away. I haven't gone up there in the summer but approaching from BW looks painful, the brush is dense past Twilight. The winter approach might work better, it stays on the ridge between Big and Little Willow (sawmill trail? head right directly at the gate). I think it's about 4 hours on skis but I wasn't exactly running. There's rock on the way (Jon's Hideout) and the area is described here on the proj and in the Ruckman's guidebook. Lots of exploring/new routing to do if you don't fear the choss.
