A Chief Petty Officer is the seventh enlisted rank for a sailor in the United States Navy and the United States Coast Guard. The CPO acts as both technical expert and leader. Advancement into the Chief Officer ranks is the most significant promotion within the Navy, requiring time of service, superior evaluation scores and a review by the sailor's peers. The CPO hat is the distinguishing symbol of a CPO officer. Since World War II, a sailor promoted to CPO changed his hat to reflect his new rank. The CPO hat box, traditionally made with other members the team, is therefore a source of great tradition and pride.
Obtain a pre-made wooden box with a hinged lid. Ensure the box is at least 8 inches wide and 8 inches long by 4 inches high to allow the hat to fit inside comfortably. Choose a box that includes a glass panel or a "peep hole" to display the hat inside if you wish. Allow at least two sides of plain wood to allow for later inscription, either at the front or the top of the box.
Write the individual's name, rank, and dates of service in pencil on one of the plain wooded sides. Ensure the letters are large enough to be read and easily traced with a woodburner. If the Chief Petty Officer is still enlisted, inscribe the date of enlistment followed by a dash, leaving space for the retirement date to be added at a later time.
Place the tracing paper over a piece of paper with insignia image on it and copy. Then, place the tracing paper on the wood and use a sharp lead pencil to re-trace the outline, when the tracing paper is removed the design is plainly outlined on the wood's surface.
Use a wood burner to burn the designs into the box, carefully tracing the designs outlined in pencil.
Allow the box to cool for thirty minutes once woodburning is complete. Display the hat inside.

Penetrance of the Gene for Dieldrin Resistance in Anopheles Albimanus Wiedemann *
Selection of successive generations of a dieldrin resistant strain of Anopheles albimanus by exposure to dieldrin-impregnated papers resulted in a rapid increase in frequency of the dominant gene for resistance. This gene is estimated to be 100 percent penetrant in the heterozygous and homozygous resistant mosquitoes. In addition to the single dominant gene, there appeared to be also a selection for ancillary genes conferring additional resistance. There was no loss in the frequency of the single dominant gene for resistance in the parent colony after about 3 years of laboratory rearing without selection pressure.

Today, DC-based conference call startup Speek announced $1.1 million in funding.
The investment came from a variety of angels, including Stewart Allen, CTO of AddThis; Michael Chasen, cofounder of Blackboard and founder of SocialRadar; Timothy Chi, cofounder of Blackboard and WeddingWire; and Sonny Ganguly, cofounder and CMO of WeddingWire. The latter three invested through NextGen Angels, an angel group for investors under 40 in DC.
Speek lets users create conference calls with a URL (http://speek.com/YourName) rather than a phone number and pin. Their goal is to refresh the outdated conference call experience – for example, letting you see who's talking and share files. Earlier this year, the startup launched iPhone and Android apps for calls on the go. May marked the launch of their paid, Pro version, and they'll use this funding to continue improving the product.
Speek previously raised $1.5 million and is considering this funding a "bridge round" between its funding in December and February and its Series A.
Tech Cocktail's CEO Frank Gruber and COO Jen Consalvo are members of NextGen Angels. Speek CTO Danny Boice is a Tech Cocktail contributor.

Last week was a bad week.
Got a bit of bad news from the police. Partner had a car crash. Train station staff refused me travel for over two hours in London so got home at bed time. Having a bad night, then one parent said "What's wrong Julie?!" in the playground and I broke down and cried on her shoulder for an hour. Freya Woof got Tikka and the poor hen nearly died. Tail-less but mainly feather damage, with some nasty cuts and bruises. I've got 3 types of chicken medicines on the go right now trying to help her. I was convinced she'd go in her sleep on the first night, but she's hanging on in there and has started nibbling on food.
Anywho after a week of something going wrong every day I went to the park with Jen and Freya after school. I tied Freya to the fence by the swings and started playing.
Why the excited face? Well he's never managed the monkey bars. They hurt his hands and arms too much, and these are jolly high for a kids park – around 7 or 8 feet high.
I had to photo this. Ok, it is not technically a good photo. But it was the first time, and there was bright glaring sunshine. Great for playing, bad for quickly taken photos.
This is typical Jen right here.
This is the little climbing wall Freya likes to hop over. Got Mr Grumpy in the background though unfortunately. I have no idea who this man was but he was talking about me in a derogatory way, mainly ranting to whoever would listen "Who does she think she is? Charity t-shirt in this park? Does she think we are rich around here daft cow! I bet she doesn't donate to charity herself, cheeky cow!" and so on. I can tell you it took a lot of tongue biting and self restraint not to get stroppy back.
I know he was rude, but after the last week that was a good day. I kept telling myself I am a good person for not screaming at him in front of Jen but man I wanted to. :-/
Bye bye. Well behaved child and pup walking home. A few months back Jen walking her would have been out of the question, but she really understands now that he's so much smaller and more fragile and she reacts appropriately to who is walking her. She's learning. Good dog!

Fliers Can Keep Blood Clots at Bay
Oct. 12 -- SATURDAY, Oct. 11 (HealthDay News) -- Acting U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Steven K. Galson recently released a "Call to Action" to reduce the number of cases of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in the United States.
The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) said it supports this initiative and offers tips for preventing these life-threatening conditions during air travel.
A blood clot, called a deep vein thrombosis (DVT), can occur after long periods of being immobile, such as on long plane flights, according to Susan Scherer, associate professor of physical therapy at Regis University in Denver and a member of the APTA.
If a DVT occurs, the clot may dislodge and travel to the lungs, a condition called pulmonary embolus.
Symptoms of leg DVT include swelling in one or both legs and calf tenderness. People with pulmonary embolus symptoms may experience shortness of breath and increased heart rate.
"People who experience any of these symptoms should always see the doctor, especially if they occur following a long period of immobilization," said Scherer in an APTA news release.
To reduce the risks of DVT in flight, Scherer said people should wear compression stockings to keep excess blood from remaining in the legs. In addition, she advised seated exercises to keep the blood flowing, the joints mobile, and the muscles relaxed.
"Simple exercises can help prevent other typical symptoms experienced by people who fly, including leg cramping, toe cramping, and general lower-body aching," said former APTA President Marilyn Moffat in the news release. "Sitting for long periods may lead to swelling of the feet, which becomes obvious to many passengers when they try to put their shoes back on at the end of their flight."
The APTA suggests that passengers on long flights get up and walk up and down the aisle every hour or so -- when the "Fasten Seat Belt" sign is off -- to work the leg muscles and ease the back.
"Performing these exercises will keep the leg muscles from contracting and will help relieve stiffness from the flight. The exercises also will help prevent fluid build-up in the legs, and stretching the back and the muscles around the torso will prevent stiffening," said Moffat.
Finally, since dehydration may occur during a flight due to high altitudes and dry, pressurized cabin air, the APTA advises that passengers drink plenty of water before and during the flight to help prevent muscle cramping and aching due to dehydration.

An expedition cruise through the Inner and Outer Seychelles aboard the MS Caledonian Sky
Surely a trip such as this must count as one of the best ever Christmas presents. The opportunity to escape to the islands of the Seychelles for an unforgettable Christmas and New Year in the Indian Ocean aboard the all-suite MS Caledonian Sky. This is a perfect expedition for those who enjoy the natural world and all its wonders as we explore the warm seas of the Indian Ocean visiting some of the most beautiful tropical islands on earth.
We know the region well having operated vessels there for the past twenty five years and if ever there was a region perfect for expedition cruising it is here, a timeless world of wonders both below and above the water. With our fleet of Zodiacs we can reach the unreachable, landing on remote beaches, walking through verdant rainforest and national parks and getting close to some unique flora and fauna. To many travellers, the islands we visit are without equal, having remained largely free from the ravages of mass tourism. Obviously, such beauty and serenity is best enjoyed with a small number of travelling companions. After all, it would be disappointing to find yourself in the company of hundreds on what was a deserted beach. The MS Caledonian Sky is an ideal vessel, and with a maximum of 114 passengers she offers all the comforts of a larger vessel, but with the added luxury of a small number of passengers and an expert expedition team who will add much to your enjoyment.
Please find a selection of useful websites to refer to for information from the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, on visa requirements, NHS travel health advice and other useful travel tips.
The MS Caledonian Sky is one of our three flag ships and sister vessel to the MS Island Sky and MS Hebridean Sky. All three vessels were built in the same ship yard in Italy at similar times and share the same excellent attributes that make them three of the finest small ships in the world.
Fly by scheduled indirect flight.
Arrive this morning and transfer to The Savoy Resort & Spa (or similar) for an overnight stay. The remainder of the day is at leisure to acclimatise before we meet for dinner this evening.
After a morning at leisure to enjoy the hotel facilities or explore independently we will check out of our hotel. Following lunch, we will make our way to Victoria, one of the world's tiniest capitals, where we visit the market and the Botanical Gardens, home of the giant land tortoises, fruit bats and endemic plants which include the world famous coco de mer palms. We will transfer to the MS Caledonian Sky in the late afternoon and enjoy welcome drinks and dinner as we set sail.
Today we will use our Zodiacs to land on Aride, one of the finest and most important seabird islands in the Indian Ocean. Over one million seabirds breed on the island including tropical shearwater, lesser noddy, frigate birds and roseate tern in addition to five species unique to the Seychelles such as the Seychelles warbler and Seychelles magpie robin. The island is largely covered in native woodland, including the endemic Wright's gardenia, a shrub with beautifully scented flowers found nowhere else in the world. We will sail over lunch to Curieuse, a rugged island which was once home to a leper colony and now houses an eco-museum and visitor centre. The island is an important nesting site for hawksbill turtles and boasts endemic vine and mangroves which we explore on an island walk. Return to the vessel and celebrate Christmas Eve with the ship's crew and fellow travellers.
Spend Christmas Day morning at the Amirante Group of islands which were discovered by Vasco de Gama in 1501 and are, considered to be some of the most pristine and untouched islands in the world. If conditions permit, we will spend the morning on Desroches, the largest of the islands, although still only measuring six kilometres by 1.5 kilometres. Enjoy nature walks with our naturalists and the island's conservation team observing the flora and fauna and in particular the giant tortoises and nesting turtles. Whilst keen snorkellers will have the chance to swim over the outlying coral. Return to the MS Caledonian Sky for lunch and an afternoon at sea to celebrate Christmas Day on board.
We will use our Zodiacs to explore the sparkling lagoon of these remote atolls ringed island of coconut and casuarina trees. Hawksbill and green sea turtles come to the islands to nest, and several of the Farquhar Group's islands are Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas. We will spend the morning either snorkelling on the coral reef or explore the island's past and wander around the settlement which once housed a thriving copra and fishing industry. Return to the ship for lunch as we continue our journey through the Outer Seychelles islands.
We have four days at the Aldabra group of islands. Our itinerary will be in the hands of our Expedition Leader and Captain who will monitor the local conditions to ensure we maximise our time here. Whilst our itinerary is flexible, we will hope to reach Cosmoledo where a huge ring of twelve islands circle a lagoon. Many of the atolls are still to be surveyed and we will explore some of them by Zodiac. This is an important bird area with all three species of booby found in the Seychelles including the last breeding site for the brown booby. Also spot sooty terns and great frigate birds. Furthermore our visit may include the island of Assumption, which was ruthlessly plundered for its vast deposits of guano in the early 20th century. Happily, peace has returned, and the wildlife of rare birds and green turtles are once again in abundance. Our time here will be spent beachcombing, on a nature walk or snorkelling. We will also spend time on Aldabra, the island referred to by Sir Julian Huxley as "One of nature's treasures and should belong to the whole world". Aldabra is unique and every time we call at what is believed to be the world's largest atoll we find something new of interest. Sightings have been made of the extremely rare white throated rail and the atoll is also home to the world's second largest colony of frigate birds and to the largest crab, the coconut crab. Whilst exploring by Zodiac it is difficult to know in which direction to look. The clear blue seas abound with life, the skies are alive with varied birdlife and ashore giant land tortoises forage as they have done for millions of years. We hope to explore Picard Island with a short walk to see some of the thousands of tortoises and numerous robber crabs or swim in the lagoon, a vast 17 mile stretch of shallow clear water. From our Zodiacs we can watch the ever-changing undersea world and snorkel in colourful coral waters.
After a busy few days we have a day at sea as we return to the Inner Seychelles. Tonight we will welcome in the New Year on board cruising the Indian Ocean.
There are three islands in the Alphonse group which is located directly south of the Amirantes. As we approach the islands over breakfast you will understand why they are regarded by many to be the most beautiful of the 115 islands in the Seychelles archipelago. On the main island the circular lagoon offers good snorkelling and there are several tracks across the island to enjoy island walks. Spend the morning exploring before returning to the ship for lunch and an afternoon cruising.
We will land on Praslin to explore the 'Vallee de Mai', the last remnant of the original high canopied Seychelles palm forest and home to the coco de mer. We will walk its paths looking out for the rare black parrot and enjoying its natural beauty. Return to the MS Caledonian Sky for lunch as we sail the short distance to Grande Soeur, an idyllic uninhabited island. Spend the afternoon walking the island's trails which link the island's white sand beaches and maybe catch sight of some of the island's giant Aldabra tortoises, enjoy a swim or snorkel in the turquoise waters. We will sail to Mahe this evening for an overnight mooring.
Disembark this morning and transfer to the airport for our scheduled, indirect flight to London. Arrive this afternoon.

Mid-Wife Crisis
By Jim Crace
Viking 220pp £16.99 order from our bookshop
THEREC OMES A point in the career of a male novelist when his thoughts turn to sex. In between mid-life crisis and old age – when, perhaps, his sexual prowess no longer matches his libidinous imagination – he has the urge to put his fantasies into his fiction. He casts himself (disguised, of course) as bedroom hero, with young lovelies fding over one another to soothe his grumbling appendage. We've all read these novels, and I don't intend to name the culprits. Not even Philip Roth. Let me also state that I know nothing of Jim Crace's love life. But, reading the jacket blurb of his new book, I groaned at the prospect of an addition to the genre. 'Every woman he dares to sleep with bears his child … to be so fertile is a curse.' Cue fiftysomething Crace as Superdick, I thought. I should have known better. Crace – a subtle, thoughtful, often brilliant writer – has never been one to thrust his ego into the story. There is a further clue in the wording of the blurb: Felix Dern, hero of Six, may be 'fertile', but this is not the same as being virile. In fact, Felix, or Lix, is a let-down in the sack. He has sired six children by five women, but has no more sense of his sexual identity, or purpose (beyond the biological), in his late forties than he had when he lost his virginity at twenty-one. So what shapes up to be the tale of a rampant lothario turns out to be anythmg but.

This very heavy piece was found by my son as we went off roading in Central Cal. it looked like no other rocks around in shape and color. It is black on the outside and pale grey brown on the inner chipped off surface.When I filed one area on an already chipped off end, it appears shinny gray silver. It has only a slight magnetic attraction. I have looked up both iron ore and meteorites and it resembles both. stumped?
added tid bit I compared with hematite and it has nowhere near the magnetic attraction...I guess that I need to test for nickel content next? anyone?
Usually where there is slag you'll find other pieces of slag. See if there are other similar pieces in the area, that can be a giveway. Iron-nickel meteorites are usually strongly attracted to magnetic fields, and will also conduct electricity, so you can testing that as well.
Read this page for more info:
Thank You Hershel for getting back on this. I did read the page from your link. This specimen appears to only have a mild attraction to a magnet in certain areas on it's surface. It has a few areas that have an ever so light appearance of rust....most of the surface is black. I filed a small portion on what I would call the top, an area that looked to be chipped off to reveal a graphite/ nickle semi shiny surface. Elsewhere on the surface there are very small exposed areas that have specks of very shiny silver dots. I did not see any other pieces in the area where I found it that resembled it...it just stuck out as being different, that's why we picked it up. It is beyond belief heavy and yet surprisingly soft when it was filed. The filings did pick up with a magnet. How does one test for electric conductivity? Is there a place I can send a sample to have it tested?
True iron-nickel meteorites will have a strong attraction, so that would likely rule it out. The rust definitely sounds on target, but another strange thing is that you describe it as being very light, when in fact iron-nickel meteorites will be heavy.
To test conductivity, use an ohmmeter. Take a look at this link:
If you don' have access to an ohmmeter, you can use a battery operated flashlight and wires and try running one of the wires through the stone to see if the electricity passes through.
It is not light..it is very very heavy...magnets stick to it, some areas more than others..
I believe I have solved this...think it is ferromanganese..a form of slag. After more research found this image that looks much like my piece down to the dark surface that looks like a crust...very often mistaken for meteorites.The site that discussed this says not to grind or slice it as it can contain lead and arsenic....Oh great

We know there are a lot of different ways to get around Walt Disney World. Busses, Boats, Monorails- and even Uber Orlando and Lyft Orlando! Lyft offers Disney's Minnie Vans service and it's fabulous! The service was currently limited to a handful of Deluxe resorts on property, but it's expanded to all resorts. You can even take the Minnie Vans by Lyft from MCO.
I'll be the first to admit I am kind of a snob when it comes to Walt Disney World Transportation.
While the busses are great, I avoid them at all costs.
I love the Monorail, but much prefer to walk to The Magic Kingdom when staying at the Contemporary Resort.
Disney's Minnie Vans | Everything You Need To Know
When Disney announced that they were starting an exclusive Minnie Vans service I was excited. Especially because it utilizes the Lyft Orlando app (which I prefer over Uber Orlando, hands down).
Disney recently announced?that the exclusive service is now available at all resorts.
Disney's Minnie Vans Service: Sarah's Opinion
Minnie Vans Cost
At $25 per ride, it's not my first option when staying on property. The Minnie Vans service prices recently increased (February 2018) so this doesn't help, tbh.
UPDATE: Starting September 14, 2018, the Minnie Vans pricing is changing. There will be a base price of $15 and a per mile charge of $2.75 on top of that.?
Depending on where you are going, this might cost more than your previous Minnie Van trip.?
I'm seeing reports that this pricing is now in place. Examples of costs that I've seen posted online are as follows:
- Contemporary to Boardwalk: $34
- Contemporary to Beach Club: $33
- Contemporary to Animal Kingdom: $39
It appears the pricing is $2.75 per mile plus the $15 base amount.
Regular Lyft example:
And now the Minnie Van comparison.
Minnie Vans Convenience
However, when I need to get from my resort to the expo pretty quickly with my husband and kids and stroller and giant stuffed stitch in tow… it's a no-brainer.
We used it twice on our last family trip, and it was worth every penny.
Minnie Vans Service Example 1
Our driver suggested that we make a pit stop at the gas station on property to pick up some bottled waters for the kids, instead of spending 3x as much in the park.
Minnie Vans Service Example 2
My aunt (staying at Disney's Pop Century Resort) texted us that she had been waiting about 20+ minutes for a bus and was afraid she'd be late meeting us… so our driver swooped by her resort to pick her up with us.
Minnie Vans Service Example 3
The music.? The music is amazing.
Disney – offer a way for me to buy this for my own Minnie Van. I will.
Disney's Minnie Vans Service: Available Resorts
You can currently get the Minnie Van service at all Disney resorts.
That's a fairly recent change as of this update (summer 2018) so it's exciting news!
I love that you can now access the Minnie Vans all over the Disney World resort. It's a perfect way to get from resort to resort for the new Disney World fun runs being offered around property!
Minnie Vans at Other Disney Area Resorts
New this week: Minnie Vans are available at additional Disney area resorts.
You can now utilize the service from the following locations:
- Bonnet Creek resorts
- Flamingo Crossings resort
- Hotel Plaza Boulevard resorts
Disney's Minnie Vans Service From MCO Airport
So taking the Magical Express doesn't sound like your jam.
I get it. Sometimes I don't want to wait for the free transportation option either.
I mean, the churros aren't going to eat themselves!
Recently, Lyft expanded the Minnie Vans service to and from MCO airport. This means you can schedule a ride in one of these cute vans through Disney Guest services and Lyft.
- The ride costs a flat fee of $150 each way. One way rides are available; you are not required to book a round trip Minnie Van on Lyft Orlando.
- Booking is not available on the App. At least now when I've looked. But you can call Disney World Guest Services and arrange the ride in advance.
- The driver will meet you at baggage claim when you arrive in MCO. That's a nice extra!
- Cancellation for the Minnie Van from MCO is One Day prior to the trip.
- You will need a few things when you make your Minnie Van reservation:
– Your Contact Info (Email Address & Phone)
– Disney World Reservation Info
– Flight Info
– How many bags you will be traveling with
– How many people in the party
– How many car seats needed
– Credit Card for payment
- You will receive an email confirming your trip and payment; so be on the lookout for that!
- And the biggest reason you might want to take a Minnie Van to MCO with Lyft Orlando? You get to choose your departure time (unlike Disney's Magical Express). The recommended time is 2 hours before flight departure.

Psoriasis often appear on the elbow, knee, back, face, feet, and/or scalp in the form of core or itchy patches of red skin with silvery scales. Psoriasis can also appear on other parts of the body and some patients having psoriasis also contract a type of arthritis named psoriatic arthritis.
Psoriasis is fundamentally triggered by issue in your immune system. It is pertinent to mention here that normally skin cells which grow in your skin gradually rise to the surface over a prior of about a month. However, in patients having psoriasis this process occurs in just few days because your immune system causes your cells to grow extremely fast.
This skin condition is sometimes very hard to diagnose because it's symptoms appear like other skin conditions. It is highly recommended that you go for a dermatological consultation session with a board certified dermatologist to get your condition diagnosed. Your dermatologist may require a tiny skin sample to see under a microscope to properly diagnose if you have psoriasis.
Symptoms of psoriasis include:
Sometime psoriasis can take longer to go away, sometime even a lifetime. Psoriasis can also be intermittent – symptoms can come and go. Other factors that make psoriasis worst include:
Psoriasis often occurs in adults and sometimes it is hereditary. There are several treatment options for psoriasis, including the use of medicines, creams, laser treatment and other therapies. Our lead dermatologists, Dr. Shumaila, would be in a better position to diagnose and treat your psoriasis.

I am trying to do my home work so as not to be such a beggar, but still the GUI for the IP tables is mysterious.
GOAL: block a range of IP addresses from any access to the server on any port WHY: I'm looking at access logs and we have a known Russian spam network range of 188.143.232.000-22.214.171.124; post spam comments to our wordpress at the rate of 1 a minute. I believe the WP module AKISMET is handingly these, but i would like to have the expertise to add REJECTs to the IpTables when I do see this happening. I'm trying to pay better attention to the logs...
SO: I assume in the IP Tables GUI we start by
Rule Comment: Block Russian Cialis/Viagra pushers Action to take "REJECT" ICMP Type ICMP-Host-prohibited (would default work)
Then we have the long "conditions' section of the form
Source address or network: Is this where I enter an IP? Can I enter a range?
then the rest of these which are marked as "ignore" ... i am not sure what can or cannot be ignored..
If you could put tool tips on that form that would help. Bottom Line:
what is the simplest entry(s) I need to make to block 1 IP or a range of IP's? from access to any port.
If you have the time are feeling very generous then you might add comments after each of the following form labels:
Destination address or network Incoming interface Outgoing interface Fragmentation Network protocol
Source TCP or UDP port Destination TCP or UDP port Source and destination port(s) TCP flags set TCP option number is set ICMP packet type Ethernet address Packet flow rate Packet burst rate Connection states Type of service Additional IPtables modules Additional parameters
I agree iptables is mysterious. I found I had an upload limit, whether the settings are defaults set by Virtualmin (or whether they came from my Debian install) I do not know. Upload was limited to 150kb/s. But I could not see anything in the Virtualmin ui to set this, or anything in Virtualmin documentation about setting it from cli.
Given the lack of beginners' documentation on iptables elsewhere, a 'how to' would be useful.
Well, there's not any sort of iptables howto at the moment, but I can offer that there isn't any sort of default rate limit setup.
So, if you're being limited to 150kb/s, that's not something in iptables -- it's likely related to either the script you're using, or bandwidth throttling being done by your ISP.
But, we'll keep your request for an iptables howto in mind!
OK so let me downgrade my request from a big how to training on Iptables to just this:
what are the minimum entries I need to make in the iPtable interface to block a range of IP's from accessing any ports.
If you go into Webmin -> Networking -> Linux Firewall, click "Add Rule", and you can add a new firewall rule there. You could create a rule, and set it up to reject all connections from certain IP addresses.
As for specifying IP addresses -- in the "Source address or network" field, it accepts the parameters used by the iptables -s option, which is:
Source specification. Address can be either a network name, a hostname (please note that spec‐
ifying any name to be resolved with a remote query such as DNS is a really bad idea), a network
IP address (with /mask), or a plain IP address. The mask can be either a network mask or a
plain number, specifying the number of 1's at the left side of the network mask. Thus, a mask
of 24 is equivalent to 255.255.255.0. A "!" argument before the address specification inverts
the sense of the address. The flag --src is an alias for this option.
Ok then in the case of this known server in Russia that is a spammer of wordpress comments with posts (Last night they hit our word press every 1 minute for a hour with a comment. All of which Akismet rejected, but still that's taking up a lot of CPU cycles!)
so add Rule
ACTION TO TAKE: choose "Reject" REJECT WITH ICMP TYPE: leave the radio btn on default
CONDITION DETAILS:the whole range is on this box in St. Petersburg where I guess they have nothing better to do in the winter time than drink vodka and attack the rest of us ... ha! 126.96.36.199 to 220.127.116.11 How do I express that range as a "mask" ... like this?
SOURCE ADDRESS OR NETWORK: [chose EQUALS] 184.108.40.206/254
Will that do it? "Network Mask" to me is something they sell on Halloween... (I'm off now to look that up too.)
Thanks for your patience! These logs are somewhat intimidating... to see the level of "abuse" going on.
@ John_B
Great Cocos! John... here is our "how to manual" for IP Tables:
written simply enough even for a novice.
Thanks for the heads up on that. It is very clear.
It does not cover upload limits, so in case anyone else is encountering this I will comment on it. I was uploading at 150kB/s but seeing 1.6MB/s incoming traffic. The default must have been set in the Debian package, as not by Virtualmin. Since throttling inbound traffic means dropping good packets, it seems to be a bad idea: the inbound traffic of dropped packets was slowing the upload, but made my server unreachable anyway.
I added a new rule to block an IP. But I am still seeing POSTS from this IP to the WordPress blog...
When we reject and IP in the IPTables, are access attempts still registered in the access logs? if they answer is no, they should not be, then I did not enter my rule correctly.
If I did enter my rule correctly, then it does not make sense for the access longs to register hits: or perhaps it does... and may "DROP" is better than "REJECT" since perhaps the latter is still registered in access logs but DROP is not?
I figured out what I was doing wrong... in the IP tables, order is significant... Today I opened a session to the server and left a tail on the secure log all day long... very interesting to watch the attacks in progress! Some one in Korea at 126.96.36.199 started a dictionary attack on SSH... so I added them at the end of the IP table and they kept getting thru. I move the rule up above "Accept if request is for ssh" and instantly the attack was stopped. Yay!
So then I added the IP of the Russian Word Press Spammers in St. Petersburg as the very first line on the IP Tables and that stopped also!

The Winds Of Time
by Eleanor Cocreham
When a tempest throws you into the arms of love, do you surrender or find your way back to the only world you've ever known?
In 1893, a massive hurricane ravishes the small Louisiana community of Chênière Caminada and hurls Madeleine deVille one hundred years through time. Coast Guardsman Hank LaFont rescues Madeleine from a sand bar and takes her home to Grand Isle. Despite the two becoming emotionally involved, Hank stubbornly refuses to believe in time travel and engages others to research Madeleine's past to disprove her bizarre story while she grieves for her family and seeks a way home. As another storm approaches the island, she wrestles with the most difficult decision of her life—return to her century or remain with the man she loves?

Do you want to find a program right now? Use the search application to find an accredited or licensed CDL training school near you, or search through CDL schools near you.
Because of loose regulations, choosing the right local CDL school isn't always easy to do. There are many CDL truck driving schools run by one or more owner-operators who have big dreams of opening up a CDL school of their own. Most of these schools are unable to secure financial aid for their students, which forces potential students to come out of pocket for 100% of the tuition. Their lack of reputation also makes it difficult for newly trained truck drivers to secure employment after graduation.
If you're looking into CDL schools, be sure to check with the admissions department to ensure they have financial aid options available for qualified applicants and they have an active, career services department that can help you find a truck driving job after you've completed training.
The variety of training options can be overwhelming. Consider these factors on your search for the best CDL training program.
What is a CDL School?
A CDL school is a learning institution offering truck driver's license courses that typically consist of two stages of truck driver training, classroom training and field training (on the road).
Classroom training – covers safety, regulations, trucking terminology and the information you will need to pass the written test, obtain a learner's permit and begin field training.
Field training – you will be taught how to safely and efficiently operate the vehicle in various situations and conditions.
CDL Schooling consists of truck driver training with the goal of obtaining a state-issued Class A commercial drivers license (CDL). The Class A CDL is a state-issued driver's license with an endorsement that allows you to drive large, commercial tractor-trailers. The vast majority of drivers on the road with this license receive professional training from a CDL school.
Weekend Trucking School
Finding the time to attend classes while working can be a challenge. However, there are many schools that offer alternative schedules. More weekend class info >

YouTube has a new fun Easter Egg inspired by the poplar internet meme The Harlem Shake. As you might know the Harlem Shake is very popular at the moment with thousands of videos on YouTube with even videos from Google, Facebook, Microsoft and Intel. The Easter Egg on YouTube works pretty much the same with instead of dancing people dancing elements on the site.
"The Harlem Shake is an Internet meme in the form of a video of various groups of people performing a comedy sketch accompanied by a short excerpt from the song "Harlem Shake". As a meme, the video was replicated by many people, using the same concept, and this rapidly led to it becoming viral in early February 2013, with thousands of "Harlem Shake" videos being made and uploaded to YouTube every day at the height of its popularity."
You try this yourself by typing 'Do The Harlem Shake' in the search field on YouTube (it doesn't work on Google) or click here. At first the YouTube logo starts dancing alone with the song Harlem Shake by musician Baauer in the background. After 15 seconds 'the cut' takes place, the beat kicks in and all elements including images, titles, descriptions and buttons are dancing. You can stop the Easter Egg at anytime with the pause button next to the searchfield on the left.

Last year's Compasso d'Oro laureate and creator of the 1980's eyebrow-raising 'Wink' chaise longue, the much-acclaimed Japanese designer Toshiyuki Kita has collaborated with the Italian lighting brand Oluce on design of this minimalist table lamp. Resembling an oversized lightbulb, 'Denq' is made of opalescent, opaque blown glass and a lacquered metal base with chromium-plated laser cut upper base disc. The lamp is the first collaborative project of the Japanese designer and Oluce and it was presented during last year's Euroluce fair in Milan.
More about the lamp:
'With the "Denq" lamp, which kicks off the partnership between the Maestro from Japan and O luce, Kita has drawn a simple, unconditional shape revealing the hidden poetry in rigorous lines. An almost sculptural object that is intentionally "timeless" and detached from current fashion trends. A "classic of tomorrow". Fitting in with the demanding context of the O luce catalogue, which has featured Vico Magistretti's "Atollo", the most famous table lamp in the world, since 1977. Toshiyuki is a close friend of Vico and his "Denq" design has skilfully answered the prerequisite of creating an object on a par with such a high-calibre work of art.'

Release Date : 30-11--1
Movie Run Time :
2:36: Hrs
Censor certificate : U
After the super hit success of Chekka Chivantha Vaanam, STR is back with Vantha Rajavathaan Varuven, his latest release, directed by Sundar C. This action family drama is the official Tamil remake of Pawan Kalyan's Attarintiki Daredi, which was a big hit in Tollywood. How good is Vantha Rajavathaan Varuven?
Adhithya / Raja (STR) sets on a mission to bring back his aunt, Nandhini (Ramya Krishnan) back to America, who got separated from the family 25 years back, when she got married to the man she loved, against her father's (Nasser) will. Did Raja succeed in his mission and fulfill his grandfather's interest? Catch the film on the big screens to know!
An action family drama of this style and treatment is not new for director Sundar C, who has already dealt with a similar theme in few of his previous ventures. There has been no changes with the screenplay and the team of VRV have recreated the scenes exactly as how it was constructed in the original version, except for the fact that, a few dialogues and scenes have been added to electrify the stardom of STR. The reference dialogues connecting STR's real life work big time with the audience and the fans. The climax sequence in the railway station gives a convincing finish to this family drama and STR puts up a mature performance there. The family audiences might connect with the family sentiments, however, it might be a doubtful debate for the youngsters and regular film goers.
VRV falls flat, especially the latter half with a weakly written set of scenes and execution. Sundar.C's trademark slapstick comedies look very much repetitive, as we have already had enough of that through his previous outings, including his last film, Kalakalappu 2. The Ahalya drama sequence doesn't bring out any laughs and the need of that scene itself seems questionable. In an unusual manner, Yogi Babu's comedies do not work at most places and he fails to save the comic angle of the film. The performances and the staging of the scenes look artificial and because of that, the film fails to establish an emotional connect with the audience. The exaggerated stunt sequences adds up to the cons of VRV. The biggest drawback of the film is the lack of engagement and freshness, and also, the lack of mature way of handling the emotions. That in turn, makes the film predictable, and in spite of a new problem, you know, the hero is going to win at last. Though you know that you are going to witness an action masala entertainer, the 'entertainment' factor goes missing.
STR looks tailor made for the role of Raja and he has hit the right chords with his body language and performance. It is also good to see the dancer inside Simbu come out with style and high energy through the numbers, 'Red Card', 'Vaanga Machan Vanga'. He seems to be one of the very few saving factors of the film. Though a commercially templated character, Megha Akash does what is expected off her role. However. it'd be interesting to see more of the performer side of the pretty lady.
Hiphop Tamizha's background score sounds loud at places and it gets jarring to the human ears. Gopi Amarnath's visuals and Srikanth NB's cuts are functional and the technical team provides a decent support to this commercial potboiler.
In a nutshell, VRV is an old wine put into an old bottle which could be found interesting for STR's screen presence. One might also feel that director Sundar C could write refreshing scenes to engage the audience in his upcoming projects, which was once his biggest strength.
Verdict :Vantha Rajavathaan Varuven is a templated commercial potboiler with STR being the saving grace.

What is a relationship advice?
Relationship advice is a suggestion on how to resolve conflicts in a relationship.
Who is the best person to give a relationship advice?
Relationship advice is given by a person who is able to hear out each individual involved in a relationship, objectively assess the situation and give an impartial suggestion that would benefit everyone.
What is the best relationship advice you can give someone?
The best relationship advice is the one that equally benefits every person in a relationship.
What are the benefits of getting relationship advice online?
First of all, relationship advice online is convenient as you can ask your burning questions on the go, before you are face to face with a situation. Without the necessity of having premises, it reduces the cost and becomes more affordable to those who would otherwise see it as a luxury.
Why receive a relationship advice over the chat?
Privacy. You can easily be the only one looking at your screen, which allows for a freer expression of what's on your mind.
Clarity. It tends to be more demanding to express yourself in writing. This makes you think harder in order to formulate your thoughts. On many occasion this alone is very powerful, as you already have a lot of the answers.
Any relationship only works as much as the amount of work you put into it. So, your relationship in general is what you make it, and the fact that it is online is no different. You can pretend to be someone else or you can be a more honest self.
Can you fall in love over the Internet?
We develop warm and loving feelings towards an image of a person, what we perceive that person to be. Interacting over the Internet takes away the physical parameters, therefor leaving more room for imagination.
How do you maintain an online relationship?
Honesty is the most fundamental cornerstone for a healthy relationship, online or otherwise. When you are miles away from each other, the physical presence is missing, so it is important to remind yourselves that you are still exist right now, only in a different place.
Are online friendships healthy?
Friendships are defined in so many different ways. As long as both of your definitions of friendship align, and you are able to prioritise honesty above all else, you can have friends in your life, no matter what part of the world you are in.
How do you have a successful online relationship?
Meeting somebody online can be exciting, because there is a wonder of anticipation to meet one day. Having to live away from each other after forming a relationship is a lot harder as you now know what you are missing out. With the former, it is important to be yourself from the beginning and the latter requires an enormous amount of trust to freely express your feelings and welcome the expression of another in a non-judgemental manner.

Swansea Councillor's link to Granard
A Labour County Councillor representing the City and County of Swansea, Cllr Ann Cook has come a long way from humble beginnings in Granard.
Cllr Cook – born Anna May Hynes – was born in Colmcille Terrace, Granard. The eldest child of Johnny and Mary Kate Hynes, Cllr Cook left school aged 14 to seek employment, taking on a number of jobs before moving to Dublin to work in a hotel as a barmaid. However, at that time, work was difficult to find, and any work available involved working long hours for very little pay. In late 1963 she left Ireland for Swansea, but never forgot her roots. Cllr Cook returns each year to visit relatives still living in Longford.
When Cllr Cook was made redundant from her job in a sewing factory in Swansea where she had worked for 25 years, she knew she had to do something to occupy her mind and her time. Having worked her way up the ranks of the trade union – from Shop Steward to Union Convenor, representing 400 workers at a local and national level – the Granard native's interest in politics continued to grow. After working as a secretary for the Labour party, she made the decision to run for election herself.
The first time Cllr Cook ran in the election, she was beaten to the post by a mere eight votes. However, the Swansea councillor explains that she threw herself straight back into the race, saying "I'm not going to let failure beat me, I'm going to beat it". Cllr Cook's dedication paid off, as in May 2012, she was elected with the highest vote in her area – the first born and bred Irish woman to be elected in Swansea.
"Years ago, if you were born in the Terrace in Granard and had to leave school at 14 years old, you didn't stand much chance of doing anything other than working in other people's kitchens scrubbing floors" Cllr Cook explains. "It taught me one valuable lesson: never underestimate what you can do in life; if you are determined, then you can achieve it."
Cllr Cook, who is now settling into her second year as County Councillor, explains that her work has gone beyond anything she has ever done before. "The last 12 months have been absolutely amazing" she explains. "I hope that the next few years are as exciting as the last 12 months."

A new "A New Hearing Loss Treatment" report created by Linh Nguyen on the website Healthreviewcenter.com teaches people how to cure hearing loss effectively.
The new "A New Hearing Loss Treatment" article penned by Linh Nguyen on the site Healthreviewcenter.com gives people helpful methods to treat their hearing problems without using drugs or medications. At the beginning of the article, the author reveals some common symptoms of hearing loss such as muffled hearing, ringing in the ears, roaring, ear pain, dizziness, and itching. After that, people will get to know three main types of hearing loss, including conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, and mixed hearing loss. In this writing, readers also discover several causes of hearing problems which are age, loud noise, ear infections, tumors, trauma, and genes. The writer uncovers essential vitamins for hearing loss, containing vitamin C, zinc, vitamin B12, vitamin B3, omega-3 fats, folic acid, magnesium, and glutathione. This article recommends that people consume vitamin D and omega-3 fats because the high levels of omega 3 fats and vitamin D, generally found in fish such as tuna, salmon, trout or sardines, could have highly positive effects on hearing problems.
"Vitamin D deficiency might cause osteopenia in the tiny bones of the ears. This may lead to hearing loss and even deafness. Actually, correcting the vitamin D deficiency usually corrects the hearing loss and even the deafness in some specific cases," says Glenn E. Green, M.D., assistant professor of otolaryngology at the U-M Health System and director of the U-M Children's Hearing Laboratory.
In addition, this article takes people step-by-step through a process of learning how to make use of pineapple in order to lower their ears' inflammation naturally. Furthermore, the report encourages people to eat spinach, cereal, garlic, and beans because these foods contain a lot of nutrients, vitamins and minerals. These substances can help ease hearing sensitivities, reduce tinnitus, and prevent hearing loss. In other words, people will learn how to eliminate tinnitus rapidly, and how improve their immune system efficiently.
Khanh Pham from the site Healthreviewcenter.com expresses that: "The 'A New Hearing Loss Treatment' writing is informative; it gives people tips to abolish ringing in the ears easily. The tips this article delivers are simple-to-follow for most people regardless of their gender, their age, and their hearing condition."

There are certainly enough attractions in Auckland, New Zealand to satisfy any and all visitors. This is the country's largest city, and there is plenty to enjoy when it comes to dining, shopping, nightlife and fun-filled activities. If you are traveling with kids, or just want to awake your own inner child, a visit to Kelly Tarltons in Auckland is an ideal addition to your Auckland travel itinerary. Found just under 4 miles from downtown Auckland, resting nicely on the Auckland waterfront at 23 Tamaki Drive, Kelly Tarltons Antarctic Encounter and Underwater World is a place where you can view penguins, sharks, seahorses and all kinds of other wonderful creatures.
Kelly Tarltons Underwater World opened in 1985, and though some thought Mr. Tarlton a bit bizarre for building an aquarium in the city's waterfront sewers, over 10,000,000 million visitors have enjoyed the experience thus far. The sewers here were no longer in use, and really, where better to build an aquarium then on or near the water? The tanks that house the marine exhibits at Kelly Tarltons Underwater World overlook the Waitemata Harbor, just below the Auckland suburb named Orakei. Kelly Tarlton died just months after his Underwater World opened, and he was just 47 years old. He would certainly be proud to see what his original aquarium has become.
In 1994, Kelly Tarltons Antarctic Encounter was added to the complex, and it was the first Antarctic environment for penguins to be built underground. As you might imagine, the challenge of building an underground, frozen world where animals can thrive is pretty daunting. You'll likely find yourself both intrigued and enthralled when visiting Kelly Tarltons in Auckland, and it's certainly a wonderful place to hang out if you like animals. Pairing a trip to Kelly Tarltons with a visit to the Auckland Zoo is always a great idea.
Kelly Tarltons Antarctic Encounter offers a realistic journey through an Antarctic environment that will have you thinking you've been transported to Antarctica. Start your journey with a stop at the replica hut of Captain Robert Falcon Scott, a renowned South Pole explorer. Afterwards, you'll board a heated snowcat and be off to observe the self-sustaining Gentoo and King penguins. You can even watch the penguins swim underwater in the saltwater pools here. After "visiting"Antarctica at Kelly Tarltons Antarctic Encounter, you will certainly want to see what the exhibits have to offer at Kelly Tarltons Underwater World.
A moving walkway will transport you through an underwater tunnel fashioned from transparent, acrylic panels. This is a good introduction to underwater life for those who might be considering doing a little New Zealand scuba diving. You'll be able to observe the amazing aquatic creatures in Kelly Tarltons Underwater World without having to get wet, and at times, these often large creatures will swim right over your head. The stingrays here are large, the broadnosed sevengill sharks intimidating, and the bronze whaler sharks just as menacing. But, fear not, you're safe in the oxygen-filled tunnel. After enjoying a trip through the tunnel, you might head over to Stingray Bay for feeding time, or be off to the fish gallery to observe over 1,500 different species.

Deceased woman identified after driving into lake in Peters Township
Car recovered from Canonsburg Lake
The coroner says a woman's body has been found inside a car that drove into a western Pennsylvania lake. (Mobile users: Scroll down for full story.)
Peters Township police Chief Harry Freucht says he believes the woman is the same one who tried to drive her car into Canonsburg Lake just last week. That attempt failed because the lake was frozen.
Washington County Tim Warco identified the woman as Sandra Andrews, 71, of Washington.
Rescue and recovery crews were called about 7:30 a.m. Friday to the lake about 15 miles southwest of Pittsburgh.

Object Relational Mapping
Mapping in Hibernate for nested Bean Structure

posted 12 years ago
Hi All,
I have a bean, which in-turn have one more bean in it. I am showing my mapping for parent bean in Hibernate. But I am not sure how to create a mapping for nested bean element.
package events; import java.util.HashSet; import java.util.Set; public class Person { private Long id; private int age; private String firstname; private String lastname; private Event event; public Event getEvent() { return event; } public void setEvent(Event event) { this.event = event; } public Person() { } public int getAge() { return age; } public void setAge(int age) { this.age = age; } public String getFirstname() { return firstname; } public void setFirstname(String firstname) { this.firstname = firstname; } public Long getId() { return id; } public void setId(Long id) { this.id = id; } public String getLastname() { return lastname; } public void setLastname(String lastname) { this.lastname = lastname; } private Set events = new HashSet(); public Set getEvents() { return events; } public void setEvents(Set events) { this.events = events; } }
And nested class Event is
package events; import java.util.Date; public class Event { private Long id; private String title; private Date date; public Event() { } public Long getId() { return id; } private void setId(Long id) { this.id = id; } public Date getDate() { return date; } public void setDate(Date date) { this.date = date; } public String getTitle() { return title; } public void setTitle(String title) { this.title = title; } }
Now here is my mapping for Person class.
If I had not Event in Person class the below mapping would have been perfect for Person class individually.
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd"> <hibernate-mapping> <class name="events.Person" table="PERSON"> <id name="id" column="PERSON_ID"> <generator class="native" /> </id> <property name="age" /> <property name="firstname" /> <property name="lastname" /> <set name="events" table="PERSON_EVENT"> <key column="PERSON_ID" /> <many-to-many column="EVENT_ID" class="events.Event" /> </set> </class> </hibernate-mapping>
Now here is my problem, If I want to map modified Person bean(which have Event variable in it), how do I map this class for hibernate??
Please let me know, if anything is no clearly mentioned.
The Best way to predict your future is to create it - Every great individual common man

Thank you for taking the time to have a look through our website and for considering our school for enrolment. We know that the task of selecting a school is very important and yet somewhat daunting as there are many elements to take into consideration. At Brightwaters Christian College we are very mindful of our responsibility towards both our families and our children.
As part of our enrolment process, we request that families provide a reference from the Minister of the church they are currently attending or a person who has known them for some time. Our school seeks to support families by giving children the kind of preparation for life which only Christian training can give. The whole curriculum is taught from a Godly perspective. We employ only dedicated Christian teachers who agree with the aims of the school, who present a living example and role model of how they believe Christ would have them live and who reinforce the influence and uphold the authority of the parents. It is for this reason that the parents of the children in our school must either hold to the same values and beliefs as those taught in the school or willingly support the teaching of our school.
Whilst we recognise that attending a church does not cause a person to be a Christian, we feel that being part of a church is a very important part of growing in the Christian faith. It is for this very reason that we encourage all of our parents to consider become involved in a local church of their choosing.
If you are not currently attending a church, the enrolment policy allows for parents or caregivers to apply for enrolment. There is a short interview where we seek to clarify questions and gain an insight into what expectations parents have for the school as well as how the school seeks to work in partnership with our families.
We would love to have the opportunity to take you on a tour of the school and answer any questions you may have. If you would like to book in for a tour, please contact the school office.
Please find our Application for Enrolment form in the next menu button titled "Documents and Forms". Alternatively, click on this link to load the form in a new window.
Thank you again for considering our school for enrolment.

If I supported Bush at all, this one thing would be enough to make me loathe him - TWICE!
That we have to debate in Congress whether America will torture prisoners - ANY prisoners!!!!!! - just makes my entire world view explode.
And oh, so true...
The Stranger in the Mirror
By BOB HERBERT
Published: September 14, 2006
We had elections in New York and around the country on Tuesday. But it seems to me that the biggest issue of our time is getting very short shrift from the politicians, and that's the fact that the very character of the United States is changing, and not for the better.
One of the things that stands out in my mind amid the memories of the carnage and chaos of Sept. 11, 2001, is the eerie quiet — an almost prayerful quiet — that hovered over a scene on the western edge of Manhattan that afternoon.
I stood for a long time outside the triage center that had been set up at the Chelsea Piers sports and entertainment complex. Sunlight glistened off the roofs of ambulances lined up in military fashion on the West Side Highway. Doctors, nurses and other medical personnel were standing by, waiting for what they thought would be the arrival of legions of seriously wounded victims in need of emergency care.
There seemed to be very little talking. As I recall, most of the people maintained a kind of stunned, awed silence.
The expected onslaught of victims never came. As the afternoon faded, I headed east, along with others, toward the morgue at Bellevue Hospital.
What I thought was the greatest expression of the American character in my lifetime occurred in the immediate aftermath of those catastrophic attacks. The country came together in the kind of resolute unity that I imagined was similar to the feeling most Americans felt after Pearl Harbor. We soon knew who the enemy was, and there was remarkable agreement on what needed to be done. Americans were united and the world was with us.
For a brief moment.
The invasion of Iraq marked the beginning of the change in the American character. During the Cuban missile crisis, when the hawks were hot for bombing — or an invasion — Robert Kennedy counseled against a U.S. first strike. That's not something the U.S. would do, he said.
Fast-forward 40 years or so and not only does the U.S. launch an unprovoked invasion and occupation of a small nation — Iraq — but it does so in response to an attack inside the U.S. that the small nation had nothing to do with.
Who are we?
Another example: There was a time, I thought, when there was general agreement among Americans that torture was beyond the pale. But when people are frightened enough, nothing is beyond the pale. And we're in an era in which the highest leaders in the land stoke — rather than attempt to allay — the fears of ordinary citizens. Islamic terrorists are equated with Nazi Germany. We're told that we're in a clash of civilizations.
If, as President Bush says, we're engaged in "the decisive ideological struggle of the 21st century," why isn't the entire nation mobilizing to meet this dire threat?
The president put us on this path away from the better angels of our nature, and he has shown no inclination to turn back. Lately he has touted legislation to try terror suspects in a way that would make a mockery of the American ideals of justice and fairness. To get a sense of just how far out the administration's approach has been, consider the comments of Brig. Gen. James Walker, the top uniformed lawyer for the Marines. Speaking at a Congressional hearing last week, he said no civilized country denies defendants the right to see the evidence against them. The United States, he said, "should not be the first."
And Senator Lindsey Graham, a conservative South Carolina Republican who is a former military judge, said, "It would be unacceptable, legally, in my opinion, to give someone the death penalty in a trial where they never heard the evidence against them."
How weird is it that this possibility could even be considered?
The character of the U.S. has changed. We're in danger of being completely ruled by fear. Most Americans have not shared the burden of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Very few Americans are aware, as the Center for Constitutional Rights tells us, that of the hundreds of men held by the U.S. in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, many "have never been charged and will never be charged because there is no evidence justifying their detention."
Even fewer care.
We could benefit from looking in a mirror, and absorbing the shock of not recognizing what we've become.
But then there's better news, as they've uncovered what may be the oldest actual writing ever found in the Western hemisphere. Keen!
Guy Clark's Workbench Songs. Get it. It's great.
It's only September and I have some 20 CDs vying for my Top Ten for the Year spots. I'm still dickering with whether Kris Kristofferson's This Old Road or Rosanne Cash's Black Cadillac is #1.
Okay, typographer, tell me where you found a 19-inch television for $45 (because that's approximately what the Star Wars Trilogy runs at CostCo). *g* Because CostCo's TVs ain't even in that vague range, and it's usually the least expensive place in the universe to get electronics. (Yes, despite the Ultimate Electronics ads, I WILL buy my electronics in the same place I get huge tubs of mayonnnaise...)
It's Friday! At least that's good news.
