The state Corrections Department plans to execute two convicted murderers two hours apart Tuesday, with Clayton Lockett's execution at 6 p.m. to be followed by Charles Warner's at 8 p.m.
Executions for two Oklahoma convicted murderers scheduled for Tuesday evening
The times were announced Friday in a notice to the state Court of Criminal Appeals provided by the Oklahoma attorney general's office.
"This Court is well aware of the tortured procedural history of this case," Assistant Attorney General Seth S. Branham wrote, citing how everyone from the governor to the state Supreme Court to the Court of Criminal Appeals has become entangled in attempts by attorneys for the condemned killers to delay the executions and force the state to reveal the source of the drugs to be used to carry out the sentences.
The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals on Friday rejected yet another request from attorneys for the convicted murderers to delay their executions.
Lockett, 38, was convicted of the 1999 fatal shooting of Stephanie Neiman, 19, in Perry. Lockett shot Neiman twice with a shotgun before having an accomplice, Shawn Mathis, bury her alive.

Although it's not at all clear to me that SendMessage/PostMessage is the right tool for the job. Those are for operating on the operating system's event queue. If you're dealing with GUI event like button presses and such, you don't need to do anything special. If you're dealing with events that are specific to your application (and it sounds like you are) then it makes more sense to decouple that from the operating system's event queue.
Assuming I understand your goals (which I admit IS a bit of an assumption), then what you want is probably something like what's commonly called the "observer" pattern. Dig into this and see if it looks useful:

Asolo Boots
So they told me to write about Asolo boots here. I guess that's what I'll do. My Mean Boss says that Asolo boots are really important, and that I can't do anything else until I write some stuff about them. So, anyway, Asolo makes boots. I know that. Now you do, too. You probably knew that before now. Basically, there are Asolo hiking boots and light hiking boots, Asolo insulated winter boots, and Asolo mountaineering boots. All totally awesome.
Asolo hiking boots are like the go-to boots for backpacking and trekking. They're super stable to keep you going on the trail, even when you're lugging a heavy pack. Check out the Asolo Power Matic 200 GV Boot. They make the Power Matic 200 GV for men and women, and it's like a super serious hiking boot. Water resistant full grain leather uppers coupled with a Gore-Tex lining keep your feet dry and the boots breathable. The super stable Asolo / Vibram sole grips the trail.
Asolo light hiking boots are also the whip. Not too rigid, not too flexible, Asolo lightweight hiking boots are great for a day hike or a weekend fast and light backpacking trip. They've got the support you want from a hiking boot, Gore-Tex lining to keep your feet dry, and Asolo / Vibram soles to grip the terrain. Best of all there are both men's Asolo light hiking boots and women's Asolo light hiking boots, so everybody can be cool.
Asolo mountaineering boots, including double plastic boots, synthetic mountaineering boots, and leather mountaineering boots, are the go-to boots for winter and ice climbing.

Thanks For The Memories – Randall Cobb continued his emergence as a playmaker for the Packers, James Jones had pretty much his best season ever & Jordy Nelson (when healthy) was as solid as ever. Those happy thoughts lead into some possibly not happy ones concerning Greg Jennings & Donald Driver. Jennings will be a free agent this offseason & has he eluded too this past year may very well have been his last in Green Bay. I see one of two scenarios playing out as it relates Jennings & the Packers: 1) He gets franchised & then a trade/sign deal is done w/ another team or 2) He's just left to walk and test the free agent market. Either way, I honestly do not see Jennings back next year which is a little sad, but it's the way the NFL works. As for Donald Driver, the writing has pretty much been on the wall for the later part of the season here. Donald Driver is without a doubt, one of the most loved Packers of all time for a multitude of reasons. I truly believe had it not been for a certain reality TV show last year & the huge amount of publicity that gained Driver, Thompson & McCarthy wouldn't even have had him on the roster this past year. Thompson though I think learned his lesson from a previous experience, knew what a huge PR misstep that would've been & kept Driver around for one more year. This year will be different though & everyone knows it, including Driver which if you caught him on Inside The Huddle this past Monday night you could tell he knows his playing days, at least in Green Bay, have come to an end. I for the most part don't get sentimental about players coming & going, but it's hard not to with Donald Driver. We'll have to see how it plays out, whether Driver decides to retire (& hopefully stay within the Packers fold in some capacity) or catch on with another team. Personally, I hope it's the first of those two scenarios.

Stabenow and Great Lakes Advocates Join to Stop Asian Carp
As Annual Great Lakes Week Draws to a Close, Senator Debbie Stabenow and Local Great Lakes Advocate Gather to Promote Bill to Keep Carp out of Great Lakes
WASHINGTON-Today U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow joined Great Lakes experts and local advocates at a news conference in Detroit to call on Congress to swiftly act on legislation to protect the Great Lakes from Asian Carp. The news conference was held as the annual "Great Lakes Week," the week in which Great Lakes advocates meet with their elected representatives to discuss the importance of the Lakes to our economy and way of life.
On Thursday, Sens. Stabenow (D-MI) and Dick Durbin (D-IL) introduced legislation in the Senate, and Congressman Dave Camp (R-MI) introduced legislation in the House, to prevent Asian carp and other invasive species from entering the Great Lakes through the Chicago Waterway. The Stop Asian Carp Act will require the speedy creation of an action plan to permanently separate Lake Michigan from the Chicago Area Waterway System, where experts believe Asian Carp could enter and cause irreparable harm to the Great Lakes.
"We have a duty to protect the largest body of fresh water on the planet for future generations, and to protect the hundreds of thousands of jobs that depend on the Great Lakes," said Sen. Stabenow. "Asian carp poses a grave threat to our $7 billion fishing industry, $16 billion recreational boating industry and the entire Great Lakes ecosystem. We don't have time to lose. We need a comprehensive action plan to stop Asian Carp and we need it as soon as possible."
"Thousands of people in the tourism and fishing industries rely on a healthy Great Lakes ecosystem for their livelihood. Asian Carp is the number one threat to their way of life," said Sen. Durbin earlier in the week upon the introduction of the bill. "With so much at stake, we need to do everything we can to stop this invasive species. Our bill creates an expedited study of how permanent separation of the waterways can be achieved. While this method would require a complex feat of engineering, we need to understand the costs and benefits and whether this method offers the best hope for a long-term solution for containing not only the Carp, but other invasive species."
"Every day, Asian carp pose a greater risk to the Great Lakes ecosystem and the 800,000 jobs it sustains," Rep. Camp said earlier in the week upon the introduction of the bill. "There is no time to waste. Our bill will set in motion the process to achieve a permanent solution to keep these devastating fish out of the Great Lakes. The Stop Asian Carp Act is the necessary first step to achieving hydrological separation. In the meantime, I am going to keep working to ensure we're taking every necessary immediate step to keep these fish out of the lakes."
"We applaud this legislation," said Tim Eder, Great Lakes Commission Executive Director. "It reflects a level of concern that more closely matches that of our member states and our Canadian partners. The stakes are just too high and require urgent action."
"Invasive species harm the ecosystem and the economy. We must support every effort to keep Asian carp and other invasive species out of the Great Lakes," said Dr. Mark Gaden, Legislative Liaison for the Great Lakes Fishery Commission. "This legislation, if enacted, would significantly expedite efforts to cut Asian Carp off at their key potential point of entry."
The Stop Asian Carp Act requires the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to create an action plan that includes the best options for permanently separating the Mississippi River Basin from Lake Michigan. Creation of the plan must begin within 30 days of the bill's enactment, and the Army Corps must send a progress report to Congress and the President within six months and again in 12 months. The full plan must be completed and given to Congress and the President 18 months after the bill is enacted. It will be monitored by the Council on Environmental Quality to ensure its thorough and timely completion.
The Corp would also examine other modes of transportation for the shipping industry and influence new engineering designs to move canal traffic from one body of water to the other without transferring invasive species.
The bill is cosponsored in the Senate by Sens. Stabenow, Durbin, Levin, Brown, Schumer, Klobuchar, and Gillibrand. Twenty-one House Members are cosponsoring the bill, including every Member of the Michigan delegation.

Thanks to all for the encouragement :) Feeling much less apprehensive at this point and very excited to meet a lot of people and see tons of gear on display! As stated, I've been most interested in the MYOG, UltraLight/UltraCheap ideas, so will make sure to bring some things i've made...-a couple stove/stand/caldera-cone setups-a polycro, tape-reinforced tarp w/ mason cord lines-ziploc bag "platypus"-100's mini-ziplocs (1"x1"-ish)-hiking poles modified from $2 thrift store cross-country ski polesSee you all there!
Can't wait for the GGG!

"A projector would be awesome. Bring The Wizards of the PCT and I am sure that will go over good. One of the best of the best. Fun & Funny!!"I don't have that one, but I do have The Cairngorms in Winter with Chris Townsend.
I know this is going to disappoint a lot of people, but I just found out my 500-count order of "Doug Ide Bobble Head Dolls" won't be shipped in time for me to bring them to the GGG.There were some serious quality control issues. They couldn't get the anatomy to scale. I'll say no more.
>>>Erik G: winter meter If by that you mean a Kestrel Meter 4500 Weather Meter... than yes, please bring it!!>>>Doug: Wizards of the PCTI have a copy of it on DVD that I can bring if you want. Last thing I want to do is watch a movie all about the snow and mountains when it is dark and cold :-D
"I have a copy of it on DVD that I can bring if you want. Last thing I want to do is watch a movie all about the snow and mountains when it is dark and cold :-D"I was gonna bring Dead Snow!Can't use a DVD - my iPod is the projector - I can only use digital files that I already have loaded or on someone else's iPod or iPhone prior to 5 (old 30-pin connector).
I have Club Paradise on my iPod. It's set in the tropics, John.
Lets see, what shall I bring?Oh yeah,Borahgear Stealth backpackBorahgami original (wings opposite sides)Borahgami (wings same side)Borahgami "THE BIG ONE" fits 3 or more people plus gear depending on what size they are. LOL10x10 flat tarp set up like the D&D 3x3 meter configuration.5x9 flat tarp with extra pull outs for multi pitchesBorah gear down pantsBorah gear down vest (lightest on the market)Borah gear E-vent bivyBorah gear wide long bivy with M-90 top and 30-d silnylon bottomMYOG pillow with Nobul 1 and syn. fillingMYOG quilt with 5.0 Apex, Argon for the top material and Nobul 1 for the inside extra long 6' 8"Hopefully I'll have my proto type backpack ready to bring, it will be a multi use pack i.e.. It will be a pack, a sleeping pad, bivy, rain cover all in one, 1,800-2000 cu. in.Plus my usual array of MYOG.@ Ken I have some things I can bring for the younger group to make their own solar camp lights, I just need to know the head count and check my stock.It will be an easy project to do and they will have a memento to take home with them that they can also use as a night light at home or hiking.Jack
It would see I do not own a single piece of gear from Bora Gear... that's pretty messed up. Any discount on a pair of down pants delivered to the GGG?? 10d, medium. 34 inseam, 1.5 extra fill to help with loft for the extra inseam length (??)

"We will have a Lunar Solo at the GGG along with several new and revisedshelters. Plus our new pack lineup.Thanks,Ron"
Hi Ryan, looking forward to meeting you. The group at the GGG is one of the most welcoming and friendly bunch of folks you'll ever meet, who happen to be among the most serious gear geeks and outdoor enthusiasts you'll ever meet. You'll be in cottage and MYOG heaven. I have a film Ms. EJ and I made of a recent GGG that I think you'll enjoy and which will give you some flavor - will post the link here later this evening.
Ken,Is someone trying to do a movie projector and screen to the GGG?If so, I have a Blu-ray copy of Mile....Mile & a Half, which is JMT documentary that just came out covering a group's 2011 JMT trip in July....lots of snow and sunny shots.Highly recommend the movie, if no one has seen it.Link to trailers to the movie:http://themuirproject.com/mmah/videos/By the way, with the 2nd site and up to 100 people coming, did you want me to grab some more name tags?Any idea of how many kids/young people coming out this year?Jack@ Looking forward to seeing you....are you going to be officially representing Borah this year??? I will be bringing my family for the 1st time. Have my 10 yr old daughter coming...if that helps with the head count on kids.Tony

Hey John, I went with the Kestrel 3500NV. But yes, it's coming to the GGG (as long as it arrives in time, fingers crossed).
"Is someone trying to do a movie projector and screen to the GGG?"Me. But it's a 'lightweight' pico projector and tyvek screen - it doesn't play/use physical media (DVDs and Blu Ray discs, etc.). It attaches to my iPod, which has the movies. Again, I don't really expect anyone to actually watch a movie, I'm bringing it as a bit of a lark to show those interested how light one can bring movies on a camping trip.
I would like to check that out Doug. A movie out in the middle of no where sounds good for kids.
Tony, might as well be safe and bring some more tags. Sharpies I have. Only a handful of kids this time. M&M's girls, James' two, Kevin's son and yours. I think that's all.Good thing it is a short ride/hike in for Jack with all that stuff.
Ken,I will make sure that I get some more...if their are extras, we can use them next year.As for kids....at least there are going to be some.Looking forward to showing the family the fun madness that the GGG is.....will be good to see you too.Tony
Ryan, maybe this will make you feel better: This is a little valentine Ms. EJ and I put together for all the wonderful friends we've made, the many helpful things we've learned and the amazingly creative gear makers we've met. http://vimeo.com/36630858For those sitting on the fence about coming to the GGG, don't be shy - you'll have a great time and learn a lot.

Follow The Facehunter
February 21, 2011
Click here to see a film by Nowness following Facehunter creator Yvan Rodic as he roams the streets of New York, bumps into Terry Richardson, and reveals the secret to catching his eye.
The Swiss-born, London-based Rodic got his start five years ago snapping attendees at art openings in Paris.
"I realized I had a collection of portraits and decided to post them online, as I thought there might be interest in real people," says Rodic. His trumpeting of authentic individuality quickly caught on with fashion enthusiasts across the globe, and his site helped to pioneer the street style genre as a blogging business.
These days, Facehunter is a regular fixture at fashion week but Rodic also "hunts" in less expected locales such as São Paulo, Oslo and Reykjavik, photographing compelling strangers for his site and his weekly column in UK newspaper the Observer.
"With street style you are a flâneur. You meet someone, create a connection, get a special shot and you are the only one," he says, adding, "Fashion week is like speed dating."

My compiler always complain when I updated from 1.4 to 1.5....
Re: Java E mailOctober 11, 2006 - 04:12
I really doubt that there was ever some email functionality in java-1.4's javax.swing package.
There is an javamail package (don't know howto use it or where to find) which contains classes dedicated for email stuff.

Not surprising that Obama doesn't have a comment ontje situati, as in everything "its under investigation "
Hi it is Suzannah B Troy-this blog won't let me post with my name.
Jill Kelley a one woman terror org.? She showed the global audience CIA and FBI number 1 Dumb and Dumber!
But he had to add the qualifier: "in any way that would have had a negative impact" on national security.
The issue here isn't really whether a senior official had an affair or not. The real issue is whether America is a nation of laws and equality for everyone. Or whether we are a nation that has reverted back to medieval times and we have different laws for the 'elite' and 'commoners.'
Classified information WAS disclosed. It is on her computer - where it shouldn't be. That is a crime. Petraeus violated the conditions of his security clearance twice - once by having the affair, and again by not reporting it (yes, that is a requirement he agreed to - reporting potentially compromising situations).
We saw 6 SEALS fined for showing some of their gear. Where are the calls for punishment for Petraeus? Oh yea, he is a political appointee.... And the 'ruling class nobility' aren't covered by the same laws as us 'commoners.' (Wake up America.)
Keep in mind that Betray Us is a general who used a trillion dollar army to blow up some poor people in Afghanistan and Pakistan and Iraq, then thought he was a hero. Of course he thinks he deserves some extra female companionship and why should he have to bother with making sure she wasn't getting classified documents? His problem now is that he isn't going to be able to solve this problem with a "surge" of violence.
Wake up with America's first news – The Wall Street Journal This Morning. Host Gordon Deal and news anchor Gina Cervetti go beyond the headlines with the day's first look at news and business news from the U.S. and around the world; bringing a lively blend of intelligent information, humor, and expert analysis to morning radio.
Gordon Deal Before taking the helm at The Wall Street Journal This Morning in November 2005, Gordon was well-known to New York City radio listeners, having worked at both WINS-AM and WCBS-AM where he honed his writing skills and developed his distinctive on-air reporting style. He also served as New York City bureau chief for Metro Networks where his reports aired on WOR-AM and WABC-AM.
Gina Cervetti has an extensive radio news anchoring and reporting background including several years at Boston NPR affiliate WBUR-FM where she anchored the local production of "All Things Considered" and "Here and Now." Gina is an Associated Press Award-winning broadcaster, whose reports have been heard all over New England, including WRKO Boston and WTAG Worcester. She graduated from Boston University.
Mike Gavin oversees the production of the show which includes coordinating segments with WSJ reporters, editors, and outside newsmakers. He also oversees the sound and content of the show including all music and sound elements. Mike had spent a decade in radio programming and production before finding a home at WSJ Radio in 2007. He lives at the Jersey Shore with his wife and son.

Other than a well-run small hotel, the owners were very kind, helpful, and good-humored. Breakfast was nice and worth the 9 EUR price.
While there's a nice view from the hotel, it's just a bit far from the Old Town of Nice. But this was expected. And the walk is enjoyable anyway. There's also a bus for faster travel (1.5EURper person).
As a guesthouse, the atmosphere of the house was very good and comfortable. Also, the house owner was very kind.
This is a guesthouse, not a hotel. Meaning it's more like a large house with individual rooms. This is very nice for relaxing, chatting with fellow guests, and using a the full kitchen to prepare meals.
It could get a little noisy at times, especially since my room was right next to the dining room.

A surreal and humiliating blend of "Who Wants to Be A Millionaire" and "Survivor," this quiz show pits eight contestants against one another as they answer seven rounds of questions. Money is added to the pot for every question they get right, but sinks to zero for wrong answers. Each round ends with the players voting one contestant off, and the last one left takes home all the prize money.

A Little Navaratri Story
Once upon a time, as it was heard by me, two demon brothers performed austerities and got really, ominously powerful.
This is so often the way these stories begin, you know: demon wants power. Demon does a boatload of arduous yoga. Demon attains power. Demon runs amuck.
Same old story. That's the way it is with demons.
On this occasion, the gods got nervous about all this power the demon brothers were tossing around. Rightly so. One demon was killed. That's what you get for showing off.
His brother was pissed.
Rambha–that was the brother's name–responded by doing more yoga than ever. You see, if you do enough yoga, the gods have no choice but to grant you boons, even if their hearts aren't in it. Bestowing boons is part of the job description when you're a god. If you don't like it then don't become a god.
Knowing the nature of boons, Rambha did enough yoga to force further powers out of the gods. Don't blame the gods; he more or less held a gun to their heads.
When he had the gods backed into a corner he demanded brilliance, beauty, and invincibility in war. He also made a special wish that made him invincible to gods, humans, and demons. Considering himself immortal, Rambha figured he could finally kick back. Roaming in an enchanted garden, he spied a she-buffalo and developed a major boner for her. I'm not really sure what to say about that. She was a hottie, I guess.
Lickety-split, Rambha turned himself into a he-buffalo. Before long they were doing what two adult buffaloes of legal age, who like and respect each other very much, do when they are alone together.
That's when the she-buffalo's mate came home from work early. Oh boy! Utterly unable to take a joke, he gored and killed Rambha dead. He was able to do that because–being a buffalo–he was not a god, or a human, or a demon. Sometimes being a buffalo comes in handy.
With the death of her new paramour, the she-buffalo was despondent. She saw no reason to live. It was either that, or she was just sick of the way her mate never, ever picked up his socks, or made the bed. Either way, she leaped into the funeral pyre, and that was the end of her.
Only thing was–unbeknownst, the she-buffalo been pregnant. Her son survived the fire. With the body of a human and the head of a buffalo, he was–by a great stretch of the imagination– called Mahishasura, or Buffalo Headed Demon.
Not only was Mahishasura incredibly powerful–he was a huge pain in the ass. He ran ramshackle on earth, then defeated the gods, and thew them out of heaven. When he captured Indra's throne and declared himself king it was the last straw.
Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva–the gods who respectively create, sustain, and destroy the world–evaluated the situation. They agreed that it was about as dire as dire gets. They decided to combine powers. This resulted into a flash of light so brilliant it was like looking into the sun. At first they saw black but when they regained vision they beheld the beautiful, terrible, goddess Durga.
Each of the gods gave to Durga his or her strongest weapon. It was kind of like that part of Sleeping Beauty, when all the fairies bestow a magical gift at her christening. It was lucky she had hundreds of arms to hold all those weapons.
Mahishasura was a randy little devil, just like his father. When he saw Durga, he wanted a piece of that, and proposed marriage. She agreed to marry him if he could defeat her in battle. Thus began a scary and terrible battle that raged for nine days.
Finally, on the ninth day, Durga smashed Mahishasura down with her foot. She speared him through the neck, then cut off his head.
Everybody lived happily ever after, until the next time some pain in the ass demon did a boatload of arduous yoga.
The End.
Oh! And that, boys and girls, is why we celebrate these nine nights of Navaratri.
Happy Navaratri!
May you deftly slay all your buffalo demons.

Thanks, Cheryl, and thanks for taking the time to comment. xo
I have heard another story,Lord Ram worshiped Mother Goddess for nine days,then on tenth day he killed Ravan,thats why
Navaratri is celebrated and on tenth day Dushara (Slaying of 10 headed monster) is celebrated.

Christina Aguilera was on Jay Leno the other night to promote a new season of The Voice and her upcoming studio album and, right now, the Internet can't stop talking about how different she looked.
Three segments from the interview are embedded below.
Clearly, the singer has lost a lot of weight, which, in turn, allows her to have her people dress and style her differently but there are countless voices online saying that she might have had some subtle work done to her face as well.
TMZ is less than subtle about it.
"Christina Aguilera flaunted her hot new bod last night but it wasn't her body people are talking about... it's her face – because it looks... well, different," the celebrity publication writes.
"32-year-old Xtina has shed what appears to be scores of lbs... but the big change is in the punim," adds the same media outlet, asking its readers to vote whether they think Christina has had work done or not.
Many agree that the diva might have had some fillers because her cheeks appear fuller and shaped slightly differently than before.
Gossip Cop, on the other hand, points out that whatever difference we perceive in Christina's face is due to losing weight and not because she used the time away from the spotlight to go under the knife (or the needle, for that matter).
"When people lose weight, they look thinner in their faces, as well as in their bodies," the publication writes. Gossip Cop specializes in debunking celebrity rumors.
"[We] checked in with a source close to the pop star, who tells us, 'She looks exactly the same' aside from being 'thinner'," the e-zine adds.
Whether Christina has had work done or not, there's no denying she's in a better shape than she's been in many months. She also appears more upbeat, more confident, and clearly happy to be back in the spotlight.

Romney Vague on Afghanistan in Foreign Policy Address
2:04 PM, Oct 7, 2011 • By MICHAEL WARREN
In his foreign policy address at the Citadel this morning, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney provided a fuzzy outline of his position on the war in Afghanistan.
"I will order a full review of our transition to the Afghan military to secure that nation's sovereignty from the tyranny of the Taliban," Romney said. "I will speak with our generals in the field and receive the best recommendation of our military commanders. The force level necessary to secure our gains and complete our mission successfully is a decision I will make free from politics."
But today's address offered few answers to some of Romney's recent statements on Afghanistan. In a June debate on CNN, for instance, he said the following in response to a question about bringing the troops home:
It was unclear then, as it was today, how Romney would assess whether the war's mission.
A follow-up fact sheet from the Romney campaign offered a few more details. "[Romney will] work with the Afghan government and Pakistan and use U.S. leverage to ensure that those nations are fully contributing to the success of our mission," according to the fact sheet. "He will make clear to Afghan President Hamid Karzai that our commitment must be met with reciprocal efforts to crack down on corruption in his government, respect free and fair elections as required by the Afghan constitution, and coordinate with the United States on fighting the narcotics trade that fuels the insurgency."

Tim Pawlenty and the 'Goldilocks' Strategy for the Republican Nomination
6:00 AM, Apr 1, 2011 • By JAY COST
It's difficult at this point to try to determine who has the best chance to be the Republican candidate in the 2012 election. Still, it's fair to say that Tim Pawlenty could pursue a potentially successful "Goldilocks Strategy" for the nomination.
To appreciate what I mean by this, we have to set aside a typical preconceived notion of the primary process. It is often (implicitly) assumed that primaries are dominated by party activists and the most ideological voters. This is not actually true. In fact, after the McGovern debacle of 1972, leaders in both parties started increasing the number of primaries, as opposed to participatory caucuses (like what Iowa has) to tamp down on the influence of the hyper-ideologues. Caucuses are time consuming affairs where the true believers are heavily represented, but primaries have a much wider constituency.
Another unstated and erroneous assumption about the Republican electorate -- which is on full display in this article -- is that GOP voters are ideologically uniform, and very far to the right. Again, this is not really true. To demonstrate this point, I looked at the exit polls from the 2008 GOP nomination battle through Super Tuesday -- when it was a legitimate multi-field contest between Giuliani, Huckabee, McCain, Romney, and Thompson. I was interested in two questions: (a) how did the GOP electorate break down by self-described ideology? (b) how well did McCain do with each ideological group? (Note: the averages in the following chart were weighted by the number of delegates each state had -- so, the exit poll data from California counts more than the data from South Carolina.)
The remaining voters were self-described "liberals," among whom McCain did very well -- but their numbers were too few to factor into the chart.
I'd draw two big conclusions from this. First, as we can see, the "very conservative" group does not dominate the early rounds. In fact "somewhat conservative" voters are the modal category, with a big chunk of voters calling themselves moderate (nearly as many, in fact, as those who call themselves "very conservative"). This is a product of the primary system, which is open in many states (i.e. independents and sometimes even self-identified Democrats can vote in them).
Second, it would be very difficult to win merely by mobilizing the "very conservative" party base. Mathematically speaking, it is possible, but in practice multiple candidates tend to be in competition for that bloc, which means the ultimate winner will probably have to string together a voting coalition that samples from the more moderate factions. There are, of course, many ways to skin this cat -- and George W. Bush's coalition in 2000 was more conservative than McCain's in 2008 -- but the point is that, whichever mix you put together, Pawlenty, or any other candidate, will need some kind of mix. And it would be very difficult to win the nomination without getting at least 15 percent of either the "very conservative" or the "moderate" faction.
In other words, candidates who can pursue a "Goldilocks strategy" can be favored -- those who come across as not too conservative or too moderate, but fall somewhere in between. And on this front, Pawlenty might be able to carve out a real niche for himself.
Here's how Pawlenty -- and his advisors -- might look at the field:
It's fair to say that Michele Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, and Rick Santorum are angling to appeal to the "very conservative" base of the Republican electorate. Any one of them could win Iowa -- where the "very conservative" bloc dominates -- but they could be less appealing in places like California, Michigan, New Hampshire, and New York, where the GOP electorate is less conservative. We probably have to put Mike Huckabee into this category as well; he won the Iowa caucus in 2008, but failed to generate crossover appeal to more moderate Republican voters. It's hard to see how he can solve that problem in 2012, should he decide to run. Sarah Palin -- whose favorability ratings among self-identified Republicans are relatively weak -- would probably have a similar problem, should she run.

Warren Central's season came to an end Thursday at Rupp Arena in the KHSAA Boys Sweet 16 with a 71-63 loss to Montgomery County.
The Dragons were down 10 at halftime, but used a big third quarter to cut their deficit to just one point as the fourth quarter began.
Juniors Byron Carver and Chris Porter-Bunton led the way in scoring with 19 and 20 points respectively.

We also had the Agaves Enchilada ($12.25)- fresh halibut and shrimp, red pepper and onion, topped with chipotle sauce, rice and salad with a delicious mango dressing. I have to say that I loved everything on the plate! The rice was super flavourful and the salad was incredibly light and refreshing with that tasty mango dressing! As well, the chipotle sauce was simply to die for. I managed to finish most of this plate but was stuffed for the rest of the day!
We both ordered an iced peach bellini soup. I was so surprised that it wasn't served in a glass like all the other cold soups were. Even though it was essentially a cocktail, it felt really weird to be drinking it with a spoon.
My mom had gratinated sea scallops and shrimp in light cream sauce, crowned with floppy potato mash. There was something about that cream sauce that I really disliked, so I only took a bite. We were too full to have dessert that night, so we just grabbed some fruits from the buffet again. All in all, I had an amazing day in Santa Barbara!

Anna Sörenson "Neverending Index" @ Ed. Varie, NYCJuxtapoz // Tuesday, April 08, 2014
Ed. Varie is pleased to present Neverending Index, a solo-exhibition of recent work by artist Anna Sörenson, with opening reception on Thursday April 10th from 6-9pm. Neverending Index is a conceptual project that began in 2010 exploring the ideas of painting with water based media, collage, and text. The work explores a narrative that is more than an ordinary scrupulous examination of one's consciousness but also a reflection of Sörenson 's process and the relationship between mediums.

National Parks Group Applauds Governor Herbert's Rejection of $15 Billion Pipeline Proposal
|April 3, 2013
|Kati Schmidt, Senior Media Relations Manager, National Parks Conservation Association: 415.728.0840; Mobile: 415.847.1768
David Nimkin, Southwest Senior Regional Director, National Parks Conservation Association 801.518.1270

National Parks Group Applauds Governor Herbert's Rejection of $15 Billion Pipeline Proposal
Statement by David Nimkin, Southwest Senior Regional Director, National Parks Conservation Association
"The National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA) applauds Utah Governor Gary Herbert's decision to reject a controversial agreement with Nevada to share billions of gallons of water located along the Utah-Nevada border. Governor's Herbert's decision was right for Utah and right for Great Basin National Park."
"Governor Herbert's decision deals a blow to Southern Nevada Water Authority's proposal to build a pipeline over 300 miles from Las Vegas to the surrounding valleys near Great Basin National Park, where an undetermined amount of groundwater is stored in a massive underground aquifer."
"The pipeline stands to negatively and forever impact Great Basin National Park and surrounding communities and ecosystems. Construction of the pipeline, estimated to cost over $15 billion, along with the Governor's agreement, would have allowed Las Vegas to draw down groundwater from valleys between Delta, Utah and Great Basin National Park."
Statement by Lynn Davis, Nevada Program Manager, National Parks Conservation Association
"The National Parks Conservation Association continues to oppose the SNWA pipeline proposal based on the potential of dramatic degradation of Great Basin National Park's varied ecosystems. We also have spoken against the pipeline proposal based on the Environmental Protection Agency's dire warnings of creating dust bowl conditions that would blow particulate matter into the park and the Wasatch Front."
"History warns us of the strong potential for dust bowl conditions created by the water mining project, which is proposed for construction at anguishing public expense. If allowed to move forward, this project could dry up the area and plunder Great Basin National Park, threaten the region's rural life, and create health issues that would multiply economic and social losses. The BLM already rejected the proposed pipeline extension into Snake Valley as a result of the water agency's inability to determine impact to wildlife and surrounding communities – enough is enough. Governor Herbert's decision reinforces sensible decision making. It's time to scrap the idea of this pipeline all together."

|Conditions Information
|Posted By
|Posted On
|Route: standard
Info: All clear
|Route: West face/White gully
Info: Excellent conditions for climbing, but not so much for skiing (upon seeing the conditions, I left skis at the bottom). No snow/avoidable snow to about 12.5k, then runneled/muddy/rock infested snow to about 13k. Good snow to about 13.7k. Dry after that, summer conditions on summit ridge. Route finding is very confusing, preload the route into your GPS to avoid disappointment. USA Keller has excellent track in her trip report. Maroon creek is raging. If you have any aspirations for staying dry, bring a raft. Saw a party heading up Bell Cord, hope they were successful. Snow in the White gully (Western aspect) was in excellent shape (still firm around 11am) due to radiant cooling. Ridge to Lightning still holds a good amount of snow. 12.5 hrs RT.
|Route: std
Info: After mistakenly climbing unranked pt 13,820 (center left of pic #3) last Saturday, I had to give Thunder another shot. It was shocking how much snow had melted in the past week! I maybe stepped on snow for 20 steps until crossing the snow bridge where you leave the West Maroon Trail to head up towards Thunder. Leave the snowshoes at home! Snow is mostly avoidable until getting to the two short steep gullies getting you up to Len Shoemaker Basin. I used crampons/axe to ascend these, but scrambled on the rocks to downclimb them later in the day. Pic #1 shows much of the route from the edge of the Len Shoemaker Basin. The "White Gully" is not so white any more (diagonal left to right in upper middle of photo). From ~11,200 to ~12,500 I did not use the points, just climbed grass and rock ledges. Pic #2 is from a little further up. At 12,500, I put the points on and followed the gully up and to the right (learning from last week). The snow was good, unless you get within 4 feet of rock (which many times was hard to avoid)...then you punch through. The gully breaks into a bunch of fingerlike couloirs above 13,200...Im not sure what the correct one to take is, just not the middle left one ! It was dry, loose scrambling to the summit from here. Pic #3 is from the summit looking at unranked 13,820 to the left and on to Pyramid to the right. Pic #4 is of (from left to right): Maroon, N. Maroon, Snowmass, and Capitol. For the descent, I took the ridge North to the saddle (site of our wrong turn last week). Then it was a scree run for 500 or so feet. From here it was a mixture of face-in cramponing, glissades, and scrambling down to treeline.
|Route: West Face / White Gully
Info: Firm snow on the approach in the morning, no flotation needed. We were hiking out in late afternoon and even then, we didn't use flotation and the snow was mostly supportive. There was some postholing after descending out of the approach gullies, but it wasn't worth the weight of snowshoes for us and it's a short distance anyway. You might make a different decision. We had continuous snow almost all the way to the top of the ridge. No significant difficulties on the summit ridge (there is exposure and some class 3 moves). There are a few small cairns to follow. The creek crossing snow bridge is in good shape. There is minimal snow until past Crater Lake. The gully itself has slide debris in it and while a member of our group did ski it, it didn't look like great ski conditions. I'm not sure if there will be a trip report or not. Image 1: TP; the black line points out the summit Image 2: On the face on the way down. Stay to the right of the right to left descending rib above the two folks in the pic. USAKeller has a TR with some good pics showing the route, though we did not take the right spur shown in her image #1; instead we headed more directly up the face.
|Route: West Face
Info: After crossing stream, make sure you go far enough up the trail until you see the cairn for the turnoff, see trip report at http://www.summitpost.org/tea-party-on-thunder-pyramid/800159. No snow gear needed, traversed about 10' of snow at one point but it was soft enough to safely cross with hiking boots only.
|Route: White Gully
Info: Climbed Thunder Pyramid today. Nice climb...not anywhere near as loose as I thought it was going to be. It was actually easier than South Maroon IMO. Snow free almost the entire way except for some avoidable snow in the white gully itself. We tended to stay on the more solid ribs just to the right of the white gully looking up. Very beautiful day and calm. Gorgeous views of the bells. I have pics but they are still on my camera and I'm using the Aspen library now so I can't upload anything. I'll post pics sometime Sunday night.
|Matt Lemke
|Route: White Couloir
Info: Same as previous. Trail approach is dry or consolidated (make sure to stay high over the Bell Cord fan). Snow bridge ~100 ft upstream for the crossing. Axe/pons recommended for gullies up to Len Shoe. basin. The grassy ledge entrance to the White Gully is dry. Crampons/axe needed for couloir. Saw a few rocks fall - evidence suggests goat suspects. We ascended the left branch to the saddle and descended the right branch. The terrain above the right branch is far easier and cleaned out.
|Route: White Gully
Info: Climbed Thunder Pyramid on Sunday, 20 May. Found USAKellers report to be informative, accurate, dead on, without fault, get any better than that? Conditions are about the same, just about ten days less snow, the snowfields are a bit less expansive but we still found hard snow perfect for cramponing in the early morning and we too killed an hour on top to let the snow soften enough for a secure heel plunge step. Even so, got to practice my arrest technique toward the bottom where the hardest snow was found. We experienced the same 13 hours to climb the route but instead of cutting right at the fork to arrive at the ridge to the right of the summit, we opted to climb straight up and intercept the ridge to the left of the summit. No issues from the ridge with regard to either difficulty (class 3) or route finding. Link to my link usual narrative but honestly USAK nailed it two weeks ago.

QBSN Presents: Bobcat Breakdown 10/4/15
This week on Bobcat Breakdown anchors Kyle Levasseur and James Anderson get...
The Quinnipiac women's ice hockey team (13-2-5, 4-2-4 ECAC) moves into third place in the ECAC with a 4-2 win over the Union Dutchwomen (5-10-0, 2-5-0 ECAC) on Friday night.
The first period was all Shiann Darkangelo (Brighton, Mich.) for the Bobcats. Five minutes into the game she broke the scoring open with a feed from senior center Kelly Babstock (Missassauga, Ontario) in the corner, tucking it between the goaltender's pad and the post.
Darkangelo's second of the night came just five minutes later. The shot from the slot bounced up, hit the top of the net, fell down in front and was stuffed in for her 13th goal of the season.
Head coach Rick Seeley acknowledges the impact the Syracuse University transfer has had on this team.
"I think she has 13 goals and most of them are pretty big," he said. "She's the X-factor … [Darkangelo has] been invaluable with her production."
Quinnipiac was able again to score early in the second, with junior Anna Borgfeldt (Kristianstad, Sweden) scoring her second of the season. Her goal came off of a shot behind the goal line that deflected off of Union goaltender Shenae Lundberg.
On the other end of the ice, Union scored its first of the game 11 minutes in, with Kathryn Tomaselli getting a shot to squeak through the pads of Chelsea Laden, who would face 17 shots on the night.
Union scored once again off of a five-on-three in the third period from a deflection in front from Kathryn Tomaselli.
The goal didn't concern Coach Seeley too much.
"Well it's a five-on-three, they're always tough to defend," he said. "We missed a blocked shot and someone was open on the short side."
The last goal would come off the stick of Kelly Babstock, who was able to bring in the puck to the offensive zone and take a crisp shot that sailed past the goaltender. She leads the nation in scoring with 12 goals and 20 assists.
The women continue conference play on Saturday, Dec. 4 as they take on the Rensselaer Engineers at the High Point Solutions Arena.
