AP National Security Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Fearing a Russian invasion and occupation of Alaska, the U.S. government in the early Cold War years recruited and trained fishermen, bush pilots, trappers and other private citizens across Alaska for a covert network to feed wartime intelligence to the military, newly declassified Air Force and FBI documents show.
Invasion of Alaska? Yes. It seemed like a real possibility in 1950.
"The military believes that it would be an airborne invasion involving bombing and the dropping of paratroopers," one FBI memo said. The most likely targets were thought to be Nome, Fairbanks, Anchorage and Seward.
So FBI director J. Edgar Hoover teamed up on a highly classified project, code-named "Washtub," with the newly created Air Force Office of Special Investigations, headed by Hoover protege and former FBI official Joseph F. Carroll.
The secret plan was to have citizen-agents in key locations in Alaska ready to hide from the invaders of what was then only a U.S. territory. The citizen-agents would find their way to survival caches of food, cold-weather gear, message-coding material and radios. In hiding they would transmit word of enemy movements.
This was not civil defense of the sort that became common later in the Cold War as Americans built their own bomb shelters. This was an extraordinary enlistment of civilians as intelligence operatives on U.S. soil.
This account of the "Washtub" project is based on hundreds of pages of formerly secret documents. The heavily censored records were provided to The Associated Press by the Government Attic, a website that publishes government documents it obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.
The Russians never invaded, of course.
So the covert cadre of "stay-behind agents," as they were known, was never activated to collect and report wartime information from backwoods bunkers. It was an assignment that federal officials acknowledged (to each other, if not to the new agents) was highly dangerous, given that the Soviet Union's military doctrine called for the elimination of local resistance in occupied territory.
To compensate for expected casualties, a reserve pool of agents was to be held outside of Alaska and inserted by air later as short-term replacements. This assignment was seen as an easier sell to potential recruits because "some agents might not be too enthusiastic about being left behind in enemy-occupied areas for an indefinite period of time," one planning document noted dryly.
"Washtub" was not, however, a washout.
It operated from 1951-59, according to Deborah Kidwell, official historian of the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, or OSI.
"While war with the Soviet Union did not come to Alaska, OSI trained 89 SBA (stay-behind agents), and the survival caches served peacetime purposes for many years to come," she wrote in an OSI magazine last year.
With the benefit of hindsight, it would be easy to dismiss "Washtub" as a harebrained scheme born of paranoia. In fact it reflected genuine worry about Soviet intentions and a sense of U.S. vulnerability in a turbulent post-World War II period.
As the plan was being shaped in 1950, Soviet-backed North Korea invaded South Korea, triggering a war on the peninsula that some in the Pentagon saw as a deliberate move by Moscow to distract Washington before invading Europe. The previous summer the Soviets stunned the world by exploding their first atomic bomb. Also in 1949, the U.S. locked arms with Western Europe to form the NATO alliance, and Mao Zedong's revolutionaries declared victory in China, adding to American fear that communism was on the march.
"Washtub" was known inside the government by several other codenames, including Corpuscle, Stigmatic and Catboat, according to an official Air Force history of the OSI, which called it one of OSI's "most extensive and long-running Cold War projects." The FBI had its own code word for the project: STAGE.
"Washtub" had two phases.
The first and more urgent was the stay-behind agent program. The second was a parallel effort to create a standby pool of civilian operatives in Alaska trained to clandestinely arrange for the evacuation of downed military air crews in danger of being captured by Soviet forces. This "evasion and escape" plan was coordinated with the CIA.
Among those listed as a stay-behind agent was Dyton Abb Gilliland of Cooper Landing, a community on the Kenai Peninsula south of Anchorage. A well-known bush pilot, Gilliland died in a plane crash on Montague Island in Prince William Sound in May 1955 at age 45. FBI records say he spent 12 days in Washington D.C., in June-July 1951 undergoing a range of specialized training, including in the use of parachutes.

In order to determine the true root cause of a casting defect and select the proper corrective action, a systematic evaluation method must be applied. The intention of this course is for participants to become proficient in applying a ten step procedure that will enable them to analyze and reduce metalcasting defects by correctly identifying defects and their root causes, and determining appropriate corrective actions. This course is applicable to sand molding processes (green, nobake, coldbox, shell).
December 9 – 10, 2014 : Casting Supplier Auditing #14-15
This course will review the methods supply chain personnel need to utilize to effectively perform audits of metalcasting facilities. Topics covered will include: an overview of the audit process; determining audit requirements; developing and preparing to perform an audit; and closing the audit loop. Held at a casting supplier, participants will spend the better part of the second class day auditing several different areas of the foundry as part of this interactive and hands-on course. In addition, the course registration fee includes a networking dinner December 9.
This course is only open to employees from companies who design and/or purchase metalcastings, and class size is limited to 20 participants. All participants will be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement with Waupaca Foundry. Click the link below to view and download the form. This signed form is required prior to registration.

Originally written on Mr. Irrelevant | Last updated 11/18/14
The other shoe from the Adam LaRoche re-signing finally dropped: Washington traded Mike Morse to Seattle in a three-way deal with Oakland that nets them right-handed starter A.J. Cole in return. Cole, you'll recall, was one of the four prospect swapped for Gio Gonzalez one year ago. After an up-and-down year in low- and high-A with the A's, Cole has lost some of his luster, but he's only 21 and was recently rated as Oakland's third-best prospect. It's nice to have the bonus baby back. It's also sad to see Morse Code go, extraneous though his services may have become. He was a lot of fun these past two-plus years, especially in 2011 when the Nats were still in the Dark Ages and he had one of the best seasons in franchise history. Remember him partying. This deal also presents two interesting dilemmas: 1) Do the Nats continue to play Morse's at-bat song, A-Ha's "Take On Me," or is it 86′d? 2) Does Morse get to keep the Beast Mode moniker, considering Seattle has the original, Marshawn...

Timbaland - Know Bout Me
Artist: Timbaland
Featuring: Jay Z, Drake, James Fauntleroy
Producer: Timbaland
Album: Textbook Timbo
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 15 votes )
Believe it or not, but its been four years since Timbaland released Shock Value II, his last full-length album. When he isn't in the studio creating hits for Jay Z, Justin Timberlake and Robin Thicke, however, he has been hard at work crafting his next studio LP, Textbook Timbo. While there is no announced release date for the project, we finally have the lead single in our
hands ears. Enter Know Bout Me, which finds Timbo being joined by Drake, Hova (on the intro and outro) and hook singer du jour James Fauntleroy (on a near-the-end change-up). Per usual, Timbo's production chops, not his rhymes, are the star of the show, as his guests provide ample support.

2000 Nissan Xterra Problems
The distributor shaft bearing can become rusty, and seize causing the engine to stall or not start. The failed distributor will commonly require replacement.
The coolant outlet on the front of the lower intake manifold may develop a coolant leak.
The fuel injectors can fail and cause drivability problems. Often there is no Check Engine light and the failures can be caused by corrosion of the connector, clogging beyond the point of cleaning, and/or internal failures.
2000 Nissan Xterra Questions
Just recently my 2000 Xterra started to hesitate with mild power loss after warm-up while driving. I changed the fuel filter, spark plugs and wires, distributor cap and rotor. No impact from any of those changes. No dash lights have come on or flashed. The RPM gage remains constant during the...

2000 Nissan Xterra Reviews
My 2000 Nissan Xterra runs great, but I have an ABS light that comes on intermittently, often during hot weather, and almost never during cold weather. Can't tell any difference in braking, ABS light on or off.
The nissan xterra is a great vehicle I bought mine in 2000 now its asking for new parts it has 102,000 miles and I was told that I need to replace timing belt they r charging me between 1,100-1,400 which I believe is way to much reason being that I looked up prices for timing belt kits and there under $75.00
Mine is a lemon. Really. When it is too hot the entire dash goes out. The dealership could never figure it out. With that said, I love my car and would buy another one. Really. It drive great, especially long trips. It's perfect for a short woman, the seats aren't too high, not too many blind spots. The 4WD is easy to use, and it can really get into some tough spots. It get very good gas mileag...

Debate on reforming Latin America's premier human rights body raged late Friday, as a bloc of leftist nations joined to stall US-supported reforms.
The special Organization of American States (OAS) meeting was held to finalize a two-year process to reform the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR).
"For more than five decades, the Commission has served as the hemisphere's moral conscience," US Undersecretary of State William Burns said during the special session.
Argentine Foreign Minister Hector Timerman delivered a passionate defense of the Commission.
"The people of the region remember, and those people know that it's better to have an Inter-American Commission than not have one, because today we are going through a period of democracy -- but when we need it to fight a dictatorship, if we don't protect [the Commission] today, it won't be there to help us," he said.
The leftist bloc of Ecuador, Venezuela, Nicaragua and Bolivia however are wary about ways of financing the IACHR, and presented a surprise draft resolution calling to extend discussions on reforms at least until June.
Those countries see the OAS as a group that favors US interests, and the Rights Commission as a way for Washington and its supporters to meddle in their internal affairs.
Further debate was needed on issues like moving the commission out of Washington, defining its authority to demand that governments take "cautionary measures" in human rights cases, and the role of its special investigators, said Ecuadoran Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino.
One demand is for the commission to be banned from accepting donations from outside the region, where a full third of its budget comes from.
In particular, the commission's special rapporteur on freedom of expression depends exclusively on donations, half from European countries.
This special rapporteur has angered Ecuador and Venezuela by repeatedly accusing their governments of harassing the media.
However IACHR chairman Jose de Jesus Orozco said the funds are necessary for them to do their job properly.
The United States, which along with Mexico and Canada is calling for an immediate end to discussions, announced a special $1 million contribution to the Commission, whose annual budget is $9.5 million.
"A stronger and more capable Commission is in all our interests," Burns said.
Mexico announced $300,000 in aid, while Chile provided unspecified "additional" contributions. Argentina has previously said it would give $400,000.
Last year Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez announced that his country would withdraw from the IACHR.
Caracas has been on the Commission's black list since 2002, and since that year Venezuela has refused to allow IACHR staff to visit the country.

Prosciutto will cost $3.50 at the deli counter - no more than a tank of gas or a mocha. Make sure to ask that they shred it (extra thin slicing) and you'll swear it looks like a pound.

You have a problem with bitflips in the registry.
I need to have a look at your COMPONENTS registry hive

Noel thanks but I was time constrained and decided to re-image the drive and start again from a fresh install. All working now.
Thanks again

I'm afraid I've been lurking lately. There have been so many things going on in my life....some good .....some bad. It's been a little bit of a roller coaster. My weight is maintaining...I haven't lost any but haven't gained any.
I quit my new job(more or less). It was a really bad place.....maybe one of these days I will share some horror stories. I was glad to be out of there....I came home crying a lot.
The good news is that I have a new job. I don't start for another week or so. It's a new business and isn't totally done being built yet. My first assignment is to hire 700 people to start work by May 26th. It will be quite the task but I am so excited and ready for some good hard work.
The person who hired me....hired three people and she told me I was her first choice....what a good feeling. I just know I will like having her for a boss and it will be such a great experience learning a new business. I can't wait.
Sorry so short for now......I will write more soon!
If there was a group called Carb-o-holics anonymous....I would probably be President! I love my carbs...I could eat pasta and bread for every meal. Of course this is probably how I got myself into this position in the first place! Oh well, you gotta love a challenge.
I have struggled on this site since I started. I couldn't seem to catch the "spark" and start losing some real weight. According to my scale this morning, I have lost over 14 lbs. since Jan. 1. Yippee! So what makes the difference this time?
I did join Weight Watchers, mostly because I need that extra accountability incentive to step on the scale. They also talk alot about power foods and while there is nothing new about this.....I've read about these foods many times on this site.....my carb-o-holic tendencies would have nothing to do with it.
But now it's different...I'm changing my ways....it's time. I quit buying things like 100 calorie snacks. They are empty carbs and really don't satisfy me...unless I eat two or three of them....You know what I'm saying! I went to Walmart and bought a nice air popper for 14.88...yes I splurged! I asked for it for Christmas but DH refuses to buy me appliances....sweet!
You can have a lot of popcorn...it really hits the spot when I'm really hungry.... spray a little "I can't believe it's not butter spray" and some "Kernal Seasons" popcorn seasoning and I'm a happy gal! It has taken my hubby a little time to get used to it...but it's growing on him!
Popcorn has:
-more protein than any other cereal grain;
-more iron than eggs, peanuts, spinach or roast beef;
-more phosphorous and fiber than potato chips, ice cream cones or pretzels.
-And 1 gram of fiber per cup is similar to 1/2 cup of bran flakes or a large apple with skin.
How can you lose?
The other major change for me is work. I take my lunch everyday and I usually have a sandwich, a small bag of chips, an apple, some sugar free jello, and sometimes...string cheese.
But then in happened....the Mountain Man came in the door. I have never worked anywhere before where the Mountain Man came in. I have seen him at craft fairs and there is even a store in Yankton I have visited from time to time. If you have never heard of the Mountain Man....it's the Mountain Man Nut & Fruit Co. and people pedal it something like Avon or Watkins.
I'm hooked on their chewy sprees..which has been the candy of choice for some time...but no more. I bought a bag of almonds. Everyday around 10:30 a.m. I have a small handful of almonds. What a difference that makes. I'm satisfied....I don't feel the need to snack.
I am so happy with how things are going....I'm a long way from goal and success but I'm on my way. I'm sure I will have adjustments a long the way...but I'm positive that protein is the key for me. I am going to make it this time. Because when I feel satisfied....I no longer put any focus on food...it doesn't take over...it's just fuel. I am determined to hang on to this feeling!
P.S. I'm still eating my way through lots of fruits and veggies.....the Honey Crisp Apples are excellent right now!!!! We are going to rid the world of those things yet!!!
I was so happy to see 2010 leave! I think that is the worst year in my life on record! I have been determined to make 2011 the BEST year ever.
I have really been thinking about the lessons I learned last year and how I can apply them to my weight loss journey. I thought I would share it with you.
1. My life will never be the same.
So many things have changed since I lost my job....my income is less.....my responsibilities are less.....and thus far my bills are the same. It's going to take some adjustments to not feel so broke all the time.
Translation: Change is what we are after! I don't WANT to look the same. I don't want to eat the same. And to achieve my goals will require some adjustment.
2. I can't have anything I want when I want it.
With the dramatic change in income..there just isn't enough money for play. It's been a long time since I've had to focus on a budget...but you know it's not so bad....it's a good lesson to go back to....eliminate waste.
Translation: If you don't budget your calories and water....how can you be assured it's going to work. Write it all down! Stick to the plan.
3. If you don't keep moving forward......you will go crazy.
I went nuts being at home all day. It gives you too much time to feel sorry for yourself. I found I had to schedule time away from the house just to stay sane. I'm not used to so much down time.
Translation: Inactivity is never a good thing when trying to reach your goal and it won't happen over night. You must make the time for it.
While I don't want to relive 2010 over again....I learned some valuable lessons....and I'm still sure that my weight loss journey will be successful this time!
Watch for your lessons! It's amazing what you can learn....if you just focus!!!
Have a great week!
I'm so tired tonight. I started my new job today. It's not the job of my dreams or what I thought I would be doing, but it's nice to be productive again. A good thing about the job is that I have to bring my lunch. So that is good for the diet.
So much for the update.......what I really want to talk about is New Years Resolutions.
What do you think of when you hear, "New Years Resolutions"? I think Santa Claus....Easter Bunny.....Tooth Fairy! They just don't exist! They are usually broken before they are uttered. So let's do something new this year......okay....maybe not new.....but something different.
I just had the worst year of my life. I was so glad to see 2010 go. I just know 2011 is going to be sooooo much better! So now I'm grateful. And I want to keep that feeling.
1. Keep the gratitudes coming all year long.
I'm grateful for my family.....for having a job.....for blessings of family and friends. I will remind myself of 5 things I am grateful for every week.
2. Improve yourself.
I read a lot in the last six months. I want to keep that up. I have a lot I want to do with my life so I am going to continue to improve myself and spend time on myself. I need time for myself and I need to get the proper amount of sleep every night in order to have enough energy to do what I want to do.
3. Rid the world of pesky fruits and vegetables the green way.
We all struggle with eating enough fruits and vegetables....they must taste horrible! So as a favor to the world....I am going to eat as many as I can to save others from the terrible fate of having to eat them! Yes, I am now willing to make that sacrifice.....But I can't do it alone....I will need help!
4. Play games daily.
I bought a wii two years ago and I don't use it nearly enough. I have some great workout games to play and it can be fun at the same time. So I am going to play everyday and give my chairs a break.
5. Drink a lot.
Okay....little misleading. I like drinking water. I would rather drink water than anything else. I will continue to hydrate myself well.
So that's my list for living the good life this year. It's going to be my year. I have a detailed plan in place and the tools and resources to be successful. I am going to have the best year ever......will you join me and be a part of the fun?
I'm feeling a lot better since my surgery. Things are getting back to normal. A couple more weeks and I will probably be right as rain! Whatever that means! Had a great Christmas with family. I also interviewed for a couple of jobs since my surgery.
One I really want....I know I already accepted a job.....but this would be a great job. I should know tomorrow. I'm trying not to get too excited about it. But it would be great. It would mean a career change for me and back to a little more schooling, but I think that is just what I need. I will let you know how it turns out.
We are getting ready for a couple of big storms this weekend. It should start with freezing rain tonight. We are going to watch a couple of the grandkids on New Years Eve if the weather holds out. My aunt also invited herself over for a night of games and snacks. Should be fun if the weather permits.
So far the diet is not off to a good start.
I went to my first WW meeting. It was good and I liked the new plan and how it works. I had my surgery and bloated so bad...I had no idea where I was at and then I indulged over the Christmas break. So I am back to business now and we will see how it goes.
I also have to change my meeting date since I start work next week and can no longer go to morning meetings. They have a lot of meeting times so it's all good.
I hope to be back to blogging on a regular basis soon. I've missed all of you!
Take care,

Fantastic place, close enough to Florence for the trip in the city to never be an inconvenience, but far enough away that you get the country-side experience. Lots of amenities (billiard/snooker table, small private soccer court, nice pool). Everything was clean and well organized when we got there.

November 28, 2014
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - Union workers have begun the first part of a 24-hour strike at Oakland International Airport and at the Port of Oakland.
A spokeswoman for the Service Employees International Union says maintenance and janitorial workers represented by the union walked off their jobs at Oakland International Airport at 9:30 p.m. Monday.
Spokeswoman Anna Bakalis says striking workers were picketing outside both terminals at the airport late Monday, but were not attempting to disrupt air travel.
Bakalis says in the second part of the strike, about 500 union workers will picket outside the port beginning at 6 a.m. Tuesday. They're hoping other port workers will refuse to cross the picket line.
Port officials have expressed concerns the strike could cause disruptions to harbor operations.
