great job Tim. the suspense watching the live athlete tracker online last night was crazy! Looking forward to the report.

Congrats Lucho!
I enjoy listening to the ATU on Endurance Planet. It's been really helpful for me, so I was curious what would happen in Leadman.
I'm curious to read the race report.
I was following the Leadville 100 race tracker on Saturday night, and at the time I saw that you were close behind Troy. Sunday morning I saw that you had passed him late. I wondered if you were just tracking him so I'll be curious to find out.
Congrats - an awesome achievement.

Awesome job Lucho was a great race. Congrats on the win and the big buckle. I was keeping tabs on you and the others all day Saturday. Can't wait to read the race report.

Incredible result. The whole series was like a Rocky movie with the final race just like the climactic final, back and forth boxing match. Congrats.

Amazing. You're an inspiration man! You know how to get it done and get it done smart..AND fast. I'm going to give you some coaching advice for the next few weeks. The next pictures I want to see on here are of beer, fishing, and your boys!!
Regarding the photo, It's amazing, I saw almost every single runner go through every single aid station this weekend. The runners who were 'game faced' or too serious as early as Fish Hatchery outbound, all DNFed or had a REAL bad time, while the runners who were more relaxed, smiling all day, all finished and hit their goals. This was true from front of the pack to back of the pack.

Tim- Of course!! I remember now. The thought of hammering up that thing made me laugh out loud.

Amazing result. Congrats on the whole series. I wanted to see you do it but wasn't sure given your semi-skitzo nature if it would come together. So glad it did and you made history in my town. Hope you return to sharpen those records in the future.

My mom is in final AIDS stage
My 73 yr old mother is in her final stages of AIDS. Her doctors told me she has weeks maybe a couple of months to live. My mom has been assigned to hospice care and she wants to live with me until she goes to heaven. I told her yes she's welcome to live with me.
I have been taken care of my mom for the past 3 yrs & recently in the past 2 days took a Oral Rapid Quick blood HIV test which came back negative.. My mom has been in a nursing home until she became weaker and now she's leaving the hospital to come live with me. During her stay at a nursing home I did all of her laundry for her... her clothes were soaked in her urine due to incognance...she wore adult diapers but there were leaks. My question is many timeS I touched her laundry sometimes with gloves sometimes not..
One day I remember picking up her sweater to smell if it was clean because it felt dry and some of the particles from her fuzzy sweater went down my nose and throat and due to me checking to see if it smelled of urine..that was maybe 2 months to 1 month ago. Now within the past 2 weeks I'm having chills, sweats night and day, fatigue and tingling in my hands and feet from time to time & had a small rash on my neck and on my upper thigh..
My HIV test which was negative it was done 3 days ago & I recently saw a doctor who told me me my blood chemistry levels were fine, blood levels fine & no bacteria was found in my blood. The doctor said it was more than likely fatigue and a virus. There is no one else that can take my mom in but me and I'm honored to take care of her...she does not want to die in a nursing home and I want to make her happy and will do my best to take care of her.
My question is from my symptoms mentioned above do you feel I should take another HIV test in 3 months or should I have the Western blot test done to be double sure I was not exposed to anything?
My main concern is to make my mom happy but I'm a mother also and want to make sure I'm healthy for my kids as well as my mom.
Your question should have been posted to the HIV Prevention/Safer Sex Forum, not Fatigue and Anemia. Consequently, I'll only answer briefly and post the response in both forums.
Your HIV risk form caring for your mother is nearly nonexistent. For instance, regarding the incontinence problem, HIV is not transmitted by urine. The inhalation of "fuzzies" from your mom's sweater is not a risk for HIV acquisition.
The hospice team should be well trained in providing you with all the necessary information and any safety precautions you may need at home. You can also peruse the wealth of information in the archives of the HIV Prevention Forum (and related links). Your HIV test is negative and there is no reason for additional testing. Your symptoms are not suggestive of or worrisome for HIV. A Western Blot test will not make you "double sure" of anything and should never be run as a screening test! (It's useful only as a confirmatory test following a repeatedly reactive ELISA.)
There is no doubt you have considerable anxiety and many fears about caring for your mom at home. I strongly urge you to make a detailed list of any and all questions and review this with your mom's HIV specialist. He should be able to greatly relieve your unwarranted worries.
Please give your mom a hug and a kiss from me.
Dr. Bob

Destin Weddings on SOLARIS Yacht – Seth + Rachel
Destin Weddings on the SOLARIS Yacht Sandestin – Celebrating Seth & Rachel
Congratulations to Seth and Rachel on their Florida destination wedding on the SOLARIS yacht venue with a fun group of friends and family. The day began at sunrise with Destin beach wedding pictures, where some of Rachel's bridesmaids experienced the Gulf of Mexico for the first time.
As Rachel got ready with her bridesmaids on-board the yacht's private bridal suite, the SOLARIS cruised out into the open waters on an absolutely beautiful day for a Destin wedding.
Rachel stunned in a strapless, full length, mermaid-style beaded wedding gown while her bridesmaids wore full length, strapless navy blue dresses. Rachel's bouquet featured an eclectic mix of vibrant yellow sunflowers, roses and navy blue accents.
Seth and Rachel met on the open air sky deck of the SOLARIS, with the bridal arch dawned in the same mix of flowers. Instead of a unity candle, they took part in a Blending of the Sands ceremony, a perfect complement to the nautical / beach theme for their wedding. Seth and Rachel exchanged vows and sealed it with a kiss on the sky deck as the SOLARIS sailed out into the sunset.
After wedding pictures, they went right into celebrating with a fun reception of food and music on the water. Guests indulged in chef-prepared meals and guests danced to live music. To end the night, Seth and Rachel exited under a tunnel of sparklers from guests.
Our Destin wedding planners were thrilled to partner with Destin wedding photographer,
Mari Darr-Welch who captured each moment perfectly.
Congrats again to Seth and Rachel on their amazing wedding!

Makusikalla Aliqu Qullialu
Canadian, 1930–1989
Caribou and Otter, c. 1970
stone, antler
86 x 27 x 56 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; The Hudson's Bay Company Collection; Gift of an anonymous donor
This large-scale sculpture is unusual for the anthropomorphic "embrace" of an otter by a caribou. These two animals are not associated in life, although they may be part of an unknown legend. The composition is reminiscent of an intimate mother-and-child composition, and the smoothly polished surfaces contribute to the overall elegance of the work. The caribou is carved on a scale that is in proportion to the full set of actual caribou antlers that tower majestically over the animal. The realistic style reflects the general aesthetic of the artistic community of Puvirnituq, where the artist lived in the 1960s. This work is one of 181 sculptures that were originally part of the Hudson's Bay Company Collection. They were acquired by the WAG in 1990, after the Company was sold and the collection dispersed.

Here's a light, summery dessert that will dress up any picnic table and not blow your diet.
I used a white grape/peach 100% juice blend and added agar to create a healthy, updated "Jell-O" mold. The red, white, and blue layers are also 100% fruit–and 100% adaptable.
Feel free to use your favorite combination of fruits, though some, such as kiwi, pineapple, fresh figs, papaya, mango, and peaches, contain enzymes which break down the gelling ability of agar (cooking the fruit sometimes may solve this problem).
Strawberries and blueberries are among the most antioxidant-rich foods; blueberries especially have been proven to do everything from improving night vision to fighting cancer to lowering cholesterol!
Inspiration for this delicious dessert came from Berry and Banana Terrine at Simply Recipes.
Red White and Blue Fruit Terrine
- 2 cups white grape-peach juice (or juice of choice)
- 1 1/2 teaspoon agar powder
- 2 tablespoon agave nectar (optional–use only if your fruit is not very sweet))
- 10 ounces strawberries
- 2 bananas
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries
- Put one cup of the juice in a saucepan, and sprinkle the agar over it and allow it to soften for a few minutes. Then, heat on medium-high, stirring, until the agar is completely dissolved and the juice begins to boil. Stir in the remaining juice and the agave (optional) and remove from heat.
- Allow the agar mixture to cool slightly while you prepare the fruit. Be sure to stir the juice every minute or so.
- Remove the stems from the strawberries and slice them lengthwise. Place them on the bottom of a loaf pan, prettiest sides down. Slice the bananas and place them on top of the strawberries. Put the blueberries in an even layer on top of the bananas.
- Gently pour the juice mixture evenly over the berries. It will start to jell immediately, so work from side to side to make sure it's distributed evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely chilled and jelled. Invert over a platter to serve (you may need to lower the pan into a large bowl of hot water to loosen the edges and run a knife along the inside of the mold.)
Nutritional info is approximate.

Interview with Filmmaker Sam Balcomb
In late 2000 early 2001 I (Anthony) discovered the work of Sam Balcomb, then affiliated with the forthcoming film Ancanar, and since has contributed to and inspired the creative spirit. Over the course of the next few years, Jessica and I corresponded with Sam, and Raiya, grateful to them both on contributing to or taking part in several Tolkien related events we had organized. As we worked and corresponded with one another a friendship has grown out of these projects. During this time Sam has written, directed and produced several short films and forthcoming projects that has reflected his broad knowledge and love for the fantastical, which also honors those who have inspired him.
Having this in mind we felt it was time enough to catch up with our friend and share with you all his thoughts, ideas and knowledge of his inspirations, creativity and approach to telling stories.
We asked members of the Iaurond Room forum(s), the Ancanar related discussion(s), which are also featured in the latter part of the interview. Visit the forums where this interview is also published for further discussion of Sam's work
As we edit and attempt to format this interview we are having difficulty accenting some of the Q&A with images.
For a complete look at Sam's work,projects, images and video reels
please click here to visit his company RainFall Films
1) In reviewing the course of film projects, of a more fantasy or mythological nature—such as Ancanar, The Ore, Arrival at Esgaroth, trailer for The Legend of Zelda or earlier a planned venture into the life of Elessar—when can you say your interest in stories of this nature began?
My first "movie" was shot when I was ten years old, and it was a space adventure. We had to punch little holes in black construction paper to recreate outer space. But earlier than that, my dad read me The Hobbit and the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy, which kindled my love of literature and myth.
1a) And, If this in part began with Tolkien and his work, can you relay to us the experience of reading and studying his work for you?
My earliest memory of Tolkien is seeing the cover of my dad's Rings paperbacks.
The cover art was very 70's, and all three flowed together. I remember being creeped out by a little Shelob in the crack of the mountains. Having those books read to me was the first step.
The second step took place in college, when I revisited the trilogy. I re-read Lord of the Rings in film school, during a particularly difficult time where I wasn't sure if I was on the right path. It was one of those instances where fiction and life merged as one. I instantly had to read everything Tolkien wrote – from The Silmarillion to Lost Tales to the Histories of Middle Earth.
2) Has Tolkien's "On Fairy Stories" and his theory of sub-creation played a role in how you create and open doors to new worlds within your writing/filmmaking? If not how have your ideas formulated to tell the stories you present to us as an audience in any private/published filmmaking/ writing?
I've always been fascinated with sub-creation, which is an act we all do whether we're aware of it or not. The best ideas seem to come out of nowhere – they're not forced. Sub-creation and sub-conscious go hand in hand, I think.
One of my favorite parts of writing is coming up with backstory. Having pages of character or locale history makes writing the main story easier, even if that stuff never shows up center stage. And you never know… stuff that I wrote in the Book of Rammoth, which was never supposed to even be published on Ancanar.com, showed up in various drafts of the script. It was nice to have that pool of history to draw from.
3) Each of the short films listed in question #1 have their own unique visual perspective, each contribution does not just have a fascinating story to tell but the story is also told in the stunning visuals, graphic, and CGI oriented part to the film.
a) Can you please elaborate first on how these are brought to life?
b) Who is involved in this process?
c) How does this affect the flow of the story is it visual first and story second? Vice versa?
I doodle incessantly. You should see my college notebooks, they're 5% notes and 95% doodles. So writing and drawing are very much intertwined in my process, and the images get tied to the story at an early stage (but neither is superior to the other). Speaking of college, that was around the time I realized I could never pay people to create the kinds of visual effects I wanted in my films – so, I had to learn that technology on my own. It's still an ongoing process. I definitely have more support now, which I'm eternally grateful for, but creating visual effects is still a passion of mine. It's nice to feel so hands-on.
3) Are there more mental, creative energy/archetypes/symbols more predominant than another in each of the works you have brought to life?
A large part of my ancestral makeup is Scottish, so the Celtic myths have a particularly strong hold on me. I love the triple-spiral design, which was the Pagan Trinity (and afterwards usurped to become the Holy Trinity), so that shows up every now and then in my work.
There's definitely a gallery of archetypes I love, that always hold tremendous narratives power. Looking back, I notice many "misunderstood, shunned hero" types. Strong female characters with hidden power. The bad guy who turns good, in order to take on the greater evil. The tricky thing is to elevate those archetypes above what we've seen before; there's a thin line separating them from clichés. I'm certainly not always successful.
4) From the development of Ancanar to Zelda each have a similar troupe of actors, what is it that each of these wonderful players bring to your film projects? I.e Gregory Lee Kenyon, Ralph Lister etc.
I'm a big believer in keeping your friends close in this business. It's too easy to let people fall by the wayside. When you find someone who is talented, who you get along with well, you've got to hold onto them. I'm lucky enough to have made good friends and colleagues along the way, such as Gregory and Ralph. At the same time, it's fun to bring new people on board, who become new members of our little club.
6) Throughout each of these projects we are also enchanted by a unique film score.
a) Can you tell us how it was working with your father, composer Stuart Balcomb, on these projects, and was your father/son relationship a factor in any of it?
b) In some of your work material by David Arkenstone was present, can you describe what you feel of his music and what it was like working with him?
It's always great fun working with my dad. We have a good working relationship, and he's very patient with me! I've been a lifelong fan and collector of film scores, so sometimes I will have very specific ideas or musical comments. My dad will always try my suggestions, even if they suck, but in the end he's the creative force behind the music.
David Arkenstone was overwhelmingly kind enough to let us use tracks from his terrific Atlantis album for Ancanar's Ocarina scene, which screened online. He even reworked his music to fit the footage better, which was great. David continues to be a good friend, and I hope we can work together again in the future.
7) In each of the cited film projects there is an equally inspiring element, that of the arms and armor. Please tell us more of the world concerning The Lonely Mountain Forge and Joe Piela, Jenna Brocius. For example the raven imagery of the black wing elves is very mysterious would you be able to elaborate further on that symbolism or on any of the other work LMF has done for you.
Joe Piela contacted me back in 2000, asking if he could send me custom made swords and armour for Ancanar. I remember being baffled – why on earth would he want to do that? How did we get this lucky? We've worked together, along with Jenna Brocious, ever since, and I feel honored to have such amazing friends.
Jenna crafted the Black Wing arms for Ancanar, which are gorgeous pieces of art. The Ravens are a symbolic standard for one of the characters, but beyond that I probably shouldn't say…
8) From Linwe of the Iaurond Room Forum:
a)I too would love to hear a bit more about Sam's current and/or future projects. Anything feature length? More shorts? What are they about?
b)I was also wondering how The Legend of Zelda trailer project got started. Did someone approach you with the idea, or did it originate in your own brain (hehe)? How did you go about keeping it so secret?
Hi Linwe – good to hear from you! One of the reasons I started Rainfall Films was to have better management over all these projects. Between myself and my other partners (Jesse Soff, Jeff Dodson and Kholi Hicks), we're working on feature scripts, short films, music videos and commercials. There's nothing solid to announce just yet, but keep an eye on our website.
The Zelda trailer was originally going to be part of an ongoing series of fake trailers – not april fools, but conceptualizations of video game to film adaptations. IGN liked that idea, so we started on Zelda (one of my favorite games). By the time we finished it in October of 2007, IGN came up with the April Fools idea and went in that direction. So it was definitely fun creating the hoax, but we can't pull that same sort of thing again. It was very hard keeping it secret, and we even had a leak two weeks before launch, when someone within the production posted a few shots in a game forum.
9) From RingFanOne of the Iaurond Room Forum: Could you edit your showreel with titles of the films, either as you did at the bottom of your mograph reel or as you did with your new music reel? Thanks!
Hi RFO! That's not a bad idea, and would certainly help viewers identify each project. I'll see if we can implement that on our next update, which will probably be over the summer. We're also going to be splitting it up into two versions: showreel and visual effects.
10) In his short story collection Smoke & Mirrors, Neil Gaiman said "Fantasy—and all fiction is fantasy of one kind of another—is a mirror. A distorting mirror…which we can use to tell ourselves things we might not otherwise see." To an extent all your work is fantasy, even of a subtler kind (such as Texas Fortune) a darker kind which most people don't generally regard as fluff & fairy-tale fantasy. Do you find Gaiman's comment pertinent to your work? And how has your work mirrored your world? And anything else you'd like to comment on fantasy in general?
It's a great quote, from a great writer. And yes, I do think it's very pertinent, and ties in with that I mentioned above – that fiction/fantasy comes from a very subconscious level and it often affects us there. We can relate with the businessman, the athlete, the shop owner… but what about the magician, the dragon, or the demon? We can't, and yet in many stories, we find ourselves emotionally impacted by fantastical creatures or characters. That's the power of fantasy – as Gaiman implied, it can show or tell us things about ourselves or the world around us that is not immediately apparent.
11)If not covered already, are there any other ideas, projects, or things you have in plan that you'd like to share with us?
I'd like to mainly apologize to the Ancanar fans for the rather bumpy road of the past couple years. Raiya and I came to the agreement that the film would benefit from a single voice – having two captains on the ship just was not in the best interest of the story and the fans. I wholeheartedly support Raiya in her ongoing quest with Ancanar, and look forward to seeing what she does with it. The tricky part was how to handle the site and its updates, and having the server hacked did not help things. I hope to see the site back online soon, in whatever form Raiya thinks best.
As always—thank you for your work, for your contribution to fantasy, and for being with us today.
Thank you Anthony and Jessica, for your kind words and vote of support, and for all you have done with Heren Istarion.

School librarian and a leader in Democrat Party seeks Gastonia Township seat against incumbent and former principal.
Name: Dorothy �Dot� Guthrie
Age: 65
Family: Husband, Bobby Guthrie; son, Bobby II (BeeGee)
Current job: School librarian, Clover School District
Previous political experience:President of Gaston County Senior Democrats Chapter
Contact information: www.dotguthrie.com
Ever been convicted of a crime? No
Q. Should students be able to express their opinions about school on social media such as Facebook or Twitter on their own time?
A. Yes, when students use social media from a scholastic perspective such as sharing school pride or a classroom activity which produced positive results. High school students are introduced to the First Amendment and freedom of expression. However, I strongly believe that this freedom should be exercised with responsibility. And, I encourage parents to monitor the social media sites used by their children.
Q. How should the school system deal with aging facilities and a student population that has not been growing?
A. Aging facilities should be refurbished and or replaced by new facilities. I believe that aging facilities do impact student learning in a negative way. Also, aging facilities can affect the mood, enthusiasm and self-worth of children.
Q. Is the current school board accessible to the community? If not, what would you change?
A. I cannot answer whether or not the current board is or has been accessible. However, if elected to serve, being visible in the community would be a top priority of mine!
Q. Should teachers be paid based on their performance? Why or why not?
A. As we continue to recruit highly qualified teachers, I believe that all teachers should be paid for performance. But, there are factors which impact student learning such as, class size, resources and supplies, parental and community support and school leadership.

The only thing that sucks is I haven't seen it yet and their website only has a search for the betty crocker and bisquick gluten free mixes not the Pillsbury tubs to find it at a store near your location. I wish they would have that part up.

The only thing I don't like is they do not list it on the product search. I have not seen it so far where I live and would love to have it so I went to their website and you can search for stores in your area that sell a specific product. The only gluten free they have to search is betty crocker and bisquick. I wish they would put that on their website search as well so we know where we can find it locally.

Thank you very much. I am looking forward to making a pie that I did not have to donate hours to making the crust after having had to try out a dozen recipes to find one that worked out nice and flaky.
I read that you will be rolling it out this summer and I sure wish that I knew when.

Whoopee! You mean I won't have to keep buying this incredible and expensive array of flours in order to do even the simplest of things? I hope this is economical. I know that it can cost more and that the safety procedures cost as well, but.... I am celiac. I have no choice and it is awful to try and afford all these specially things on a fixed income. So please happen soon and be affordable!
Thank you

Last night the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, Los Angeles presented their highest industry accolades at the annual Britannia awards. Hosted by Alan Cumming, the evening's attendees included Helen Mirren, Robert Downey Jr, and rising star Felicity Jones amongst others and honored talents such as Helena Bonham Carter, for British Artists of the Year, and Harry Potter director David Yates for Excellence in Directing.
While nowhere near as famous as the Oscars or the London BAFTA Awards, The Britannia awards, organized by BAFTA Los Angeles, looks to celebrate excellence in film and television and this year they celebrated British fashion as well.
In addition to the evening's awards ceremony, the organization celebrated British Fashion with its first British Designer Showcase as a part of the silent auction. The auction, which benefited BAFTA Los Angeles' ongoing education, scholarship, community outreach, and archival projects, featured one look, including accessories, from designers such as Stella McCartney, Temperley London, Roksanda Illincic, and high street favorite Reiss amongst others.
"We are delighted to have assembled, with help from our members collaborating with the fashion industry, an outstanding array of established and up-and-coming British designers to give our guests and members the chance to bid on their exquisite pieces, and in turn support our educational outreach programs," said BAFTA Los Angeles' Executive Director, Donald Haber. After all, there are few industries as deeply connected than fashion and film. Let's just hope some of the celebrities in attendance took notice of a fresh face or two and will keep that in mind come awards season proper in the spring.

SunEdison shares tumble 55% on bankruptcy filing fears
Shares of renewable power firm SunEdison plummeted 55% Tuesday as it teetered on the edge of bankruptcy amid slumping oil prices and swirling questions over the company's accounting practices. SunEdison faces a "substantial risk" of bankruptcy, according to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing by a subsidiary, TerraForm Global. SunEdison develops, installs and operates alternative energy projects.
The warning comes about two weeks after SunEdison delayed its annual report following concerns that the company had misreported certain aspects of its financial performance. Additional signs of trouble emerged in early March when the ailing company's proposed acquisition of rooftop solar company Vivint collapsed when SunEdison couldn't line up the financing necessary to complete the deal.
SunEdison shares (SUNE) plummeted 69 cents, or 55%, to close at 57 cents a share. A SunEdison spokesman declined to comment. Analysts say the company's biggest issue is having enough cash. "The primary reason that (SunEdison) is facing a precarious situation is due to a lack of liquidity," burdened by poor cash flow and high debt levels, Reorg Research distressed debt analyst Graham Meharg said in an email.
The Wall Street Journal also reported Tuesday that SunEdison faces an SEC investigation over the possibility that it had exaggerated its cash position. aThe Maryland Heights, Mo.-based company has blamed the issue primarily on "deficient information technology controls in connection with newly implemented systems" and has said a board committee is examining the situation.

Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow discusses the promotion of top pitching prospect Jarred Cosart, who'll start Friday against the Rays.
Decision to promote Cosart: "He has a full half season in Triple-A and sometimes the results don't match how we feel about his performance, because we ask him to work on certain things — asking him to work on his changeup, work on his offspeed pitches to complement what we know is a pretty electric fastball. And he's been doing that and the way we track results is not necessarily hits or runs, it's more about what the coaches are saying and how we're evaluating his performance. And he's done well and he's done everything we asked him to do. So when this opportunity came up and we needed a starter before the All-Star break, he definitely was at the top of the list."
Spot start or will he stay in the rotation: "We don't know the answer to that yet. Right now, we know that we needed another starter prior to the break and we'll probably have a couple roster moves we have to make before the break and then we'll spend the time figuring what everything looks like afterwards in the next couple days – we don't know the answer to that right now."
Start Friday vs. Rays factoring into the decision: "Yeah, but we're not going to read too much into one start. He's on the cusp of being ready to be a major-league starter for the Houston Astros and this is his first opportunity to show us what he can do."
Cosart's mental evolution as a pitcher: "He clearly has the arm. And you never know how someone's going to respond under the bright lights of the major leagues until they get there. And there were some question marks around how (Paul) Clemens was going to respond and he responded pretty favorably. And so we just don't know. The reports from Triple-A have been positive and he's got a good attitude and he's been doing everything we've been asking him to do. So we're optimistic that's going to lead to a very good outcome at the big-league level."
Cosart representing the next wave of promotions: "Yeah. I don't think Cosart will be the only player making his major-league debut with us the rest of the summer. So I'm very excited to see these guys come up as the opportunity presents itself and they prove to be ready."

"It is doubtful that children reciting the Pledge of Allegiance feel oppressed or brainwashed as a consequence of muttering the phrase 'under God.' I didn't."
–Barak Obama, "Call to Renewal" Keynote Address, June 28, 2006.
This quote was featured this morning on another atheist blog I frequent, Austin Cline's atheism.about.com section.
Austin makes some good points, and points most of the people who visit this blog spot would probably think of themselves. That the phrase is openly discriminatory toward atheists, and that it furthers the disenfranchisement of atheists in our culture.
I certainly don't disagree. Although, if I'm going to be honest, I personally also never felt that the Pledge thrust religion or monotheism upon me as a youngster. I honestly don't believe that any child will become monotheistic by being compelled to say the Pledge every morning and recite the phrase "One Nation Under God."
Let me be clear, however, that I acknowledge that the insertion of the phrase is completely in violation of the Establishment of Religion clause, and should be removed, if on no other grounds than that.
Also, just because the phrase never offended me, personally, I certainly don't take issue with anyone else feeling uncomfortable with it. How it makes a person feel is just that–how it makes them feel. It's not wrong to have feelings or to acknowledge them. And just because I don't share a person's feelings, doesn't invalidate their feelings, or my lack of them.
So, it is a phrase that at the very least violates our Constitution and, therefore, our law, and also that may offend some citizens who like to think that they are just as patriotic as any theist, or that they don't want their children compelled to say this any more than a Christian would want their child compelled to say "One Nation Without a God.". And these are real problems.
In my humble view, however, as someone who has dialogued with quite a lot of theists, neither of these things comes close to what I consider to be the real harm caused by the insertion of this phrase into our Pledge of Allegiance. What disturbs me beyond these two very real concerns? The fact that there is a group of very vocal, very politically active theists, specifically Christians, who would insert this phrase and similar phrases all over our government and our government-sponsored public institutions in order to promote the view that we are, on some level, a theocracy.
The last time I was on AE, Matt Dillahunty pointed out that if a person says "This is a Christian nation," and they mean by that that our citizens, by and large, are Christians, they are correct. If they mean by that that the vast majority of early Americans and founders of the United States were Christians or monotheists along Christian lines, they are correct. If, however, they mean by that that our laws are based upon the Bible, and that Biblical authority or Christian authority supersedes Constitutional authority, they couldn't be more wrong, (and, I would add, perhaps dangerous).
I know that by posting this, I'm preaching to the choir. And I have no intention of launching into arguments that already plaster the Internet regarding why I disagree with the theocratic stance. I'm only writing to address that, to me, it is unwise to ignore a growing group who vocally express a wish to enforce their religion upon the rest of our society. And it is unwise to believe that simply because I'm not feeling particularly offended by something, it's not potentially threatening or harmful. Did anyone see the early push that Huckabee got in the primaries? Anyone who thinks there isn't a growing movement for theocracy in the Christian community isn't paying attention. And anyone who isn't concerned by that isn't thinking it through to the end. Even Christians should fear that concept, because, historically speaking, believers haven't been particularly kind even to other believers when they aren't in complete doctrinal agreement.
I'm not going to slam Obama as a uniquely insensitive or unaware, here. I'm sure Obama isn't the only person–or politician–to share this sentiment. I actually have heard many atheists say the same thing: "It doesn't bother me, why get all worked up over it? It's harmless recitation." But to that, I have to respond that there is a larger world out there, beyond me and how I feel. And it would be wise of us all to take notice of how others around us "feel," because we might find they feel that our government should require us to adopt, if not their beliefs, at least their behaviors with regard to their religious perspectives. And they use these seemingly innocuous items to promote that agenda. Since it shouldn't be there in the first place, by law, is it wise to endorse it, retain it, or defend it as "inoffensive," while supporters of a U.S. theocracy begin to rally and test their power?
I'm thinking, "not."

Liotti Ikefugi Playground
Liotti-Ikefugi Playground
This playground honors the memory of Sergeant Carmine Liotti (1924-1945) and Private First Class Lloyd Ikefugi (1923-1945), two young men from Staten Island who died fighting for their country in World War II.
Carmine Liotti, born December 13, 1924, lived in New Brighton at 18 Ely Street and attended P.S. 17 on Harvard Avenue. At McKee High School he played football, and the Journal of American Football listed him as an all-star player. Liotti joined the army immediately after high school and became a medic in the 319th Infantry. By April 15, 1945, Liotti's unit advanced to the town of Glauchau, in the Saxony region of Germany. While Liotti attended to wounded men on the battlefield and prepared them for transport to the hospital in town, a German nurse called upon him to help evacuate an injured German as well. Lifting the German onto his litter jeep, Liotti proceeded up the main street of the town. An enemy soldier, perhaps unaware that a German lay in the vehicle, threw a grenade at the jeep, and Liotti was mortally wounded by shrapnel. He lived just long enough for a priest to administer last rights.
Lloyd Ikefugi, born and raised on Staten Island, lived at 112 Winter Avenue in New Brighton and graduated from Curtis High School. He worked as a machinist at the Great Eastern Brass Works in Long Island City, worshiped at Brighton Heights Reformed Church, served as assistant scoutmaster of Boy Scout Troop 10, and, in April 1944, he joined the Army at age 20. Ikefugi became a member of the famous all Japanese-American 442nd Infantry, a company distinct by its very definition. At the time, the United States military maintained a policy of segregation that required minorities, including Japanese-Americans and African-Americans, to fight in special units.
The 442nd Infantry earned recognition in history by demonstrating extraordinary bravery on the battlefield, in defiance of the stereotype that Japanese-Americans could not be loyal to an America at war with Japan. In the spring of 1945, the Allies began breaking through German defenses in Italy, and Ikefugi's outfit proved an important part of that effort. On April 7, 1945, less than a year after he joined the Army, Ikefugi was attacking an enemy strongpoint and was struck down by machinegun fire. He died instantly and posthumously received the Purple Heart.
The City acquired this land in 1909 and constructed a reservoir that served the area through the 1930s. In 1935, Parks acquired the property, filled in the reservoir with dirt to create a temporary playing field, and later constructed a playground. The playground, like the avenue that borders it, was originally named for William Winter (1836-1917), a Staten Island writer, poet, and journalist who served as the dramatic reviewer for the New York Tribune. On June 27, 1961, the City Council passed local law 61, changing the name to Carmine Liotti-Lloyd Ikefugi Playground.
The playground contains kindergarten swings, play equipment, benches, a basketball court with bleachers, mature Sweetgum (Liguidambar styraciflua) trees, and a flagpole with a yardarm.

She asked me to stay And she told me to sit anywhere, So I looked around And I noticed there wasn't a chair. I sat on a rug, Biding my time, Drinking her wine. We talked until two And then she said, "It's time for bed." She told me she worked in the morning And started to laugh, I told her I didn't And crawled off to sleep in the bath. And when I awoke I was alone; This bird had flown. So I lit a fire, Isn't it good Norwegian wood.

Cavs expected to sign Kevin Jones today
Undrafted free agent Kevin Jones will finally sign with the Cavaliers on Monday, agent Bill Neff told HoopsHype. Jones, a 6-foot-8 "stretch 4" out of West Virginia, will get a partially guaranteed deal.
"The Cavaliers hung with Kevin during his (foot) injury, which is great," Neff said. "The injury set him back during the workout process. He is healthy now."
Neff said earlier in the summer Jones had a bone bruise in his ankle. He was invited to summer league, but was unable to play because of the injury.
Assuming the Cavaliers sign Alonzo Gee and Jones, that will leave them at 18 players heading into training camp.
The Cavs have made no announcement on media day, but apparently it will be on Monday, Oct. 1.
Here's a quick look at their roster (expected starters mentioned first):
Point guard (3) - Kyrie Irving, Jeremy Pargo, Donald Sloan
Shooting guard (3) - Dion Waiters, Boobie Gibson, Kelenna Azubuike
Small forward (4) - Alonzo Gee, C.J. Miles, Omri Casspi, Luke Walton
Power forward (5) - Tristan Thompson, Samardo Samuels, Jon Leuer, Luke Harangody, Kevin Jones
Center (3) - Anderson Varejao, Tyler Zeller, Eric Micheal

One of the perennial tropes of the network neutrality debate has been the tendency of the pro-regulation side to paint it as a David-and-Goliath struggle between big, evil corporations and the little guy. Way back in 2006, James Gattuso pointed out how silly this is: in fact, the push for network neutrality is backed by some of the largest companies in Silicon Valley. Julian points out a particularly lazy example of this kind of ad hominem that happens to target Cato: It seems that we're one of the "15 greatest enemies of net neutrality." And that along with CEI, Cato "seems to draw its funding from a smattering of every major corporation ever to fund lobbyists."
As Julian points out, if "VoIP News" had done its homework, it might have discovered that Cato makes its annual report freely available online. Then they they would have noticed that corporate support accounts for about 1 percent of Cato's budget, and that none of Cato's corporate funders are major opponents of network neutrality regulation.
Shoddy reporting aside, the "VoIP News" article does actually highlight an important point: the people who built the Internet are deeply split on the issue of regulating the Internet, with eminent computer scientists including Bob Kahn (co-inventor of the Internet's TCP/IP protocols with Vint Cerf) and Dave Farber (another networking pioneer) on the anti-regulation side. And based on conversations I've had here at Princeton, Kahn and Farber are far from the only computer scientists who are skeptical that the FCC is up to the job of regulating the Internet.
In a vacuous appearance on Rachel Maddow last week, blogger Xeni Jardin cited Vint Cerf's support of regulation and urged viewers to "side with the geeks who actually built the Internet." She did not, of course, mention that Kahn and Farber, who fit that description as well as Cerf does, are on the other side. "The geeks" are as split on this issue as everyone else.
Update: Tim Carney has an excellent article making a similar point: Internet companies like Google and Amazon, who have lobbied hard for network neutrality, gave overwhelmingly to Obama over McCain in the 2008 election. This doesn't prove Obama and Chairman Genachowski are insincere in their support for network neutrality. But it does mean we should take both side's arguments with a grain of salt.

My favourite part of the story is when the real Penny and the real Bolt went to the wood and moved to a cozy little farmhouse because they live happy ever after. My favourite character is Bolt because he is cute and lovable. I like the pictures in this book because they are nice and colourful.
I think boys and girls would enjoy this book because it's nice to read and it's funny.

#32 wrote:coltraning wrote:32, that's a red herring. Latrell Sprewell? please - other than 1 comment from Nelson, there has been zero indication of any bad attitude by Ike. I would like to see some evidence before labeling Ike a malcontent. If anyone has displayed bitchy and moany personality it has been Dung, and I don't see him being analogized to Spree. (Btw, there were numerous reports as to Spree's vagrant psyche as early as his rookie year.)
What we do know is that nelson has had a series of conflicts with various personalities over the years, including being the only coach who had anything bad to say about Ewing (a cast that included Riley, Hubie Brown and jeff Van Gundy). I think it highly likely that Ike's "moping and complaining" would have surfaced before, whereas from marciulonis through Ewing, not to mention his holding Cohan up for millions, Nelson has a history of irascibility, putting players in the doghouse, playing favorites, and not liking big men who play a low post game (see manute and ewing shooting 3s).
I have watched Ike like a hawk, cause I think he is talented, plays with great spirit and has gotten a raw deal. As opposed to Dung, from whom I have witnessed petulant behavior on numerous occasions, I have never seen it from Ike on the court.
The fundamental reality is, Ike was rewarded for 2 games of excellent play (13 in 17 and 16 in 18 minutes) with a DNP. This is illogical unless he was injured or told Nelson he fuked his Mama. Diogu is our second leading scorer per 48 mins, leading rebounder per 48 minutes and 2nd leading fg% leader period. these #s are staggering, considering the sporadic and illogical and often rare minutes he gets. I would just like to see this gifted young man get consistent minutes at his natural position (4), say 25 minutes a game for 20 games. I don't think there is any secret that he would excel.
I have seen this again and again in this league(unappreciated talent prospering elsewhere), including with playoff mvp Chauncey Billups and most recently with Matt Barnes, and the last thing we need is another talented ex-warrior with a grudge lighting up the league in some other uniform. Like I said, perhaps Ike is a private "blamer" but I would just say it will take more than one Don nelson temper tantrum public shaming to convince me that Ike is a malcontent. With all the rumors on the internet, you think SOMETHING would have surfaced to confirm that by now. Nothing. There are several articles expressing mystification at why Diogu is in Nelson's doghouse, though. Btw, publicly calling out your players, ala Larry Brown, is a classless and dispiriting power play, whether it's Ike or Dung or Murphy whom Nelson is calling out. At least in the case of Dung and Murphy they also bitched publicly, so you could argue fair is fair.
I am glad the Ws are 17-16. I would like to see them do well, maybe even win a couple of games as an 8th seed. The playoffs are about 1/2 court and we need all the help we can get, and Ike is the ONLY W with a credible low post game. So Free (i.e. play) Ike Diogu...or trade him, cause the kid deserves to play.
We knew this going into the season; it's Don Nelson's way or the highway.
Dunleavy is a complainer... but not to his teammates (save for his single, snide comment about Baron last season). Bitching about foul calls is one thing. Blaming your teammates for your mistakes it another.
You nor I know the truth of the situation because all we see are the on-court results. But many things go into a basketball players. Before and after game times, practice times, travel conversation, bench conversation, half-time attitude, ect... all of those things go into what Nelson has said about Ike Diogu.
Does Diogu seem like a complainer on the floor? Tough to say. As charismatic as the kid is, he's also been seen (several times) cutting down his teammates. I won't cite other people's examples, but (from my own standpoint), I've seen Ike yell at Mike Dunleavy when Jr told him to set a screen, I've seen Ike get on Biedrins' ass after the other team hit an easy dunk inside (on Ike's side, by the way), and I've seen Ike walk straight to the bench and roll his eyes when he doesn't get enough touches. Is Diogu a complainer? No fan can say for sure. But it certainly doesn't look out of this world for Nelson to say something like that.
Besides, this is getting way out of hand. Don Nelson has practically blue-printed what he doesn't like about Diogu in the papers. If Ike's reading what I read, than he knows that all he needs to do in order to get more playing time is this: (a) learn the playbook and (b) stop blaming his teammates.
People here are acting like Nelson's got a personal vendetta against some 20-year-old kid that he's never met before this season! Which sounds crazier: that Ike doesn't know where to be, that Ike blames his teammates, or that Don Nelson (personally) has it out for Ike Diogu after only 3 months??
It's not rocket science and it won't take months of work to accomplish: if Ike learns where he's suppose to be and keeps his mouth shut, Nelson will play him. It's that simple. Why is everyone here having such a hard time accepting that? This isn't Nelson's fault; it's clearly Ike's.
Nelson has spelled out (he's practically spoon-fed) what it will take for Ike to get playing time... and, still, Diogu doesn't listen. Whose fault is that?
Well, we could go back and forth on this forever, but I think my argument and yours side by side make our cases well enough. I have seen none of the on-court complaining you speak of from Ike, and btw, Dunleavy has taken several veiled shots at his teammates in the press as well as a number of oncourt bitching out sessions, ofen when HE has blown a defensive assignment or thrown a bad pass. However, in the end it really depends whether you accept your premise that Ike is an obdurate dude who will not listen and that is why Nelson doesn't play him or mine: Ike is an overproducer in the limited minutes he gets and Nelson's actions are consistent with a 30 year career of not liking inside post play (see Ewing, Cummings, etc) and capriciously putting players in the doghouse. That's the basic disagreement and like I said, until I hear from a source other than Nelson that ike is a "blamer" I am a Missourian.

Delays now number five
A post-trial hearing for former state Rep. Stephen LaRoque will happen Feb. 13, barring another continuance.
Monday�s continuance order by Senior U.S. District Judge Malcolm Howard marks the fifth new date since the hearing was set for Sept. 12.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Dennis Duffy asked for more time, and the hearing moved to Sept. 26. It again moved to Oct. 10.
On that day, Howard met with prosecutors and defense counsel for nearly an hour before returning to the courtroom and issuing a continuance on the basis of further research needed by the court and by both parties.
A jury convicted LaRoque of 10 counts relating to federal agriculture loan fraud in June.
But, evidence related to the juror misconduct that led to Howard dismissing two of the original 10 counts led defense counsel to request a hearing to set aside the entire conviction.
LaRoque attorney Joe Cheshire claimed in his motion Juror No. 3�s research on tax law regarding S-corporations, his conversations with other jurors about the information and his decision to vote guilty on all counts means that if the two specific tax fraud counts were thrown out, so should the others.
By sharing the research and explaining how it changed his vote, the juror � Jerry Miller of Jones County � may have affected the other jurors� votes to convict and therefore violated LaRoque�s right to an impartial jury.
LaRoque said he couldn�t comment on the case, and a message left for defense attorney Elliot Abrams wasn�t returned as of press time. The U.S. Attorney�s Office typically doesn�t comment on pending cases.
Once the hearing occurs, Howard will rule whether LaRoque�s rights were violated.
The hearing is set to take place Feb. 13 at 10 a.m. at the U.S. Courthouse in Greenville.

(This piece was initially published on 19 October 2012 on the UK Human Rights Blog)
Walton v The Scottish Ministers, Supreme Court, 17 October 2012 read judgment
The outcome of this challenge to a road scheme near Aberdeen turned on abstruse points about environmental assessment – but the speeches from the Justices go right to the heart of two big questions in public law.
1. When can someone challenge an unlawful act – when do they have "standing" to do so?
2. If an unlawfulness is established, when can the courts exercise their discretion not to quash the unlawful act, particularly where the unlawfulness arises under EU law?
In the course of the standing issue Lord Hope talks about ospreys – hence my title, but a bit more context first. And we shall also see the views of the Court that standing and discretion are linked questions. Continue reading

Support for ecryptfs in authconfig
Authconfig will allow the system administrator to configure automatic mounting of an encrypted area in each user's home directory.
- Name: Paolo Bonzini
- Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 15
- Last updated: 2010-12-22
- Percentage of completion: 80%
Detailed Description
pam_ecryptfs is a PAM module that allows to mount a private part of the home directory (or the entire home directory) when a user logs in. However, using pam_ecryptfs in Fedora <=14 is complicated by the configuration style adopted by authconfig. This feature aims at simplifying this across various PAM users and integrating ecryptfs support into authconfig.
Benefit to Fedora
ecryptfs is a useful tool, but it is hard to configure under Fedora. Compared to encrypted partitions, for example, it easily lets the user do encrypted backups.
Changes are required to PAM, authconfig, and several pam users. All of these have been identified and patches posted to Bugzilla:
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665061 (gdm)
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665062 (util-linux)
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665063 (passwd)
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=486152 (authconfig)
How To Test
- Add yourself to the ecryptfs group.
- Set up an ecryptfs private area under ~/Private using ecryptfs-setup-private.
- Mount it with ecryptfs-mount-private and create a few files in it. Unmount it with ecryptfs-umount-private.
- Enable ecryptfs using authconfig (e.g. setting USEECRYPTFS=yes under /etc/sysconfig/authconfig and rerunning authconfig-tui --updateall)
- Log out and log back in.
- mount should show an ecryptfs mount for ~/Private and the files you created in step 3 should show up.
- Log out and log in as root.
- The ecryptfs mount should not be there anymore.
Contingency Plan
The feature touches several independent packages, but all patches have precise dependencies included in their bugzilla entries (see here). In case the feature will not be available for F15, it is possible to either revert changes that were already included, or leave them in. In the latter case the changes will be unnecessary, but will not break anything.
- pam_ecryptfs(8) man page (note the man page is a bit Ubuntu-centric, we do not have /etc/pam.d/common-auth and the Fedora implementation will be different in order to support authconfig)
Release Notes
Fedora 15 brings in improved support for eCryptfs, a stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux. Starting from Fedora 15, authconfig can be used to automatically mount a private encrypted part of the home directory when a user logs in.

If it seemed as though the Blackhawks' triple-overtime, 3-2 win over the Ducks lasted forever, consider this: 16 other Stanley Cup playoff games have gone on longer.
Marcus Kruger's game-winning goal came at the 56 minute, 12 second mark of overtime, making Game 2 of this Western Conference final the 17th longest in NHL postseason history.
But the longest-ever overtime lasted more than twice as long: 116 minutes, 30 seconds. It happened in 1936, when the Detroit Red Wings finally snapped a scoreless tie and beat the Montreal Maroons 1-0.
Here's a list of all Stanley Cup playoff games that have gone past two overtimes (with date, score, round, time of overtime and...

Yesterday, Green Hornet Racing Porsche driver Peter LeSaffre bashed Gunnar Jeanette in the unique DeltaWing off the track and into the air. Moments after the crash, LeSaffre driver flipped Jeanette the bird. Well played.
The crash occurred at American Le Mans Series practice for the Petit Le Mans race this weekend, held at Road Atlanta. Jeanette is okay and in good spirits. The DeltaWing, one of the most radical race car designs of the past 50 years and no stranger to these kind of racing incidents, is being rapidly repaired and should be fixed for the race.

The Wick'em Bra Liner was invented by Donna Frye, who suffered for more than 15 years with rashes and irritation under her breasts. None of the doctors she consulted were able to help her, so she decided to take matters into her own hands and design a lingerie accessory for herself and the millions of women who wanted relief from rubbing and chafing. The Wick'em Perfect Bra liner was designed so that the underwires in bras never touch your breasts, and there's no more uncomfortable poking from underwires. The Perfect Bra Liner stays in place, so you don't have to tug on it or adjust it. You'll almost forget you have a bra on, and will be thrilled with the cushiony comfort this great invention provides. Wear the center tab up or down. It can be flipped up for maximum coverage or down when you wear lower necklines. The patented design of the Wick'em assures that it will never touch the most sensitives areas of your breasts. In addition, you'll avoid embarassing sweat marks that come through on your tops and dresses, and it will keep you dry under and between your breasts. There's no metal hooks or gizmos to keep it on. And it will stay in place under any style bra that you own.
In doing her research, Donna found that the problem was not just encountered by large-breasted women; all women sweat when exercising, dancing, engaging in sports, suffering menopausal hot flashes and just in high-stress situations. Some women just wanted something to make their bra is more comfortable, to cushion their skin from underwires. So the Wick'em moisture management liner was born, to be worn with everyday and sports bras, all day long.
For women with really sensitive skin, the Natural Wick'em is made from super-soft, dye-free fabric made from viscose plant fibers. It is extremely soft, perfect for those with sensitive or allergy-prone skin, and for cancer and surgical patients. And no matter which Wick'em you wear, the inner lining is 100% cotton for moisture management. A real boon in hot weather, but great in any season.
Donna says, "The letters and e-mails I receive from women who have purchased the Wick'em have been truly moving. From women who finally feel comfortable wearing a bra, to women whose rashes and irritation caused by perspiration dramatically improve or disappear, to the breast cancer patients who finally get relief from the raw, irritated skin caused by the very treatments they must endure to save their lives. My women customers testify that the Wick'em really works."
The Wick'em Bra Liner helps women of all shapes, sizes and ages, providing a safe, easy, non-chemical, non-prescription solution to skin irritation problems, while at the same time adding cushioning to the most uncomfortable, but necessary item of women's clothing, the bra.
"I hope you decide to try my bra liners," Donna says. "I am confident that you will never want to wear your bra without one-- just like me."
