I should be politicians are technocrats leading this ... is the eye and arm as this is an important story so you know what what difference all pleasing animate the Fed's latest pop of the most ... other someone else here ... it sounds like what they're trying really trying to push as someone who can pass the austerity measures and get the next round of aid from by international organizations ... exactly right ... read it because the guts ... to come with a great deal of respect a widely respected fear and greed ... the central bank governor Curae ... integration of multiple credited for getting factored into the euro to that of ... the figure of of tremendous ... stature in the country ... he later went on to become like ... the European Central Bank ... to give up thinking about a year ago ... and could well known in Europe and took ... it seem like great at being a person that the euro in the capital ... so I think it important to local favorite ... all that it's it's a long rolls over and we get an interim government ... after that we have to have new elections ... and yet ... it seems to me they're couple things that ... you know basic things that need to happen ... to really get on the right path ... you need some fundamental reforms like better tax collection of things like that but you also get ... have to get a majority people ... essentially willing to go along and ... how how big the question is that ... what exactly I mean we are we going for a day by day or out of Iowa political crisis ... but at the end of the day and every time an issue the real ... issue is likely to lead to progress the economic reforms and would ... be that the bull market trend ... doing so without either ... of them in the end of the person may be able to push ... but even in the Eden on the roof ... look like you're going to have a rather limited mandate collections are being talked about that during nineteen The Road to talk about ... a month or so ... the issue of course that that that mean there is widespread ... opposition to the austerity measures ... taken so far ... and ... but if expecting no calmed down the road the ABS has amassed given that there is so much ... I dissatisfaction with these austerity measures evidence that they don't seem to be doing anything to help Greece for potentially hurting its growth prospects ... on short-term as it tries to push for some these austerity measures ... that's why people are starting to talk about Greece leaving the European Union priest going back on the Jochem of these kinds of things which ... for various reasons are necessarily any better solution but is their sense that the Greek people are still ... going to cast any certain support behind a puppy must or someone else ... to push that is austerity measures ... I would say at the moment no ... good to be completely Frank ... I think there is a widespread unhappiness over the austerity measures ... the most of the Fed is well respected figures show to give evidence ... but that the end of that ... at the wheel might hope for a while ... really everybody's waiting for her to them that they were the light at the end of the tunnel ... into the retreat to the crumb ... topping tracking some time at the end of next year ... perhaps if we ever get their privatization program of them ... you might ... think I'm going to come into the country ... that with a ... sentiment ... right now but it could be that light at the end of the tunnel ... yet certainly not going I need is your resume you been to ... before this is sort of counter movement now that says she in basic economics ... in the ... contract the economy tax collections addition to begin with ... you know it's the unique roles of initiatives you don't need to sort of austerity lead on top of recessionary economy what cinching says we see Christina Garg head the IMF warning of publications about the severity essentially of a downturn here saying we need to do things ... to help boost growth I e stimulus but in all nine last word receipts be the one place that means those measures in the union had no hope of actually getting anything like that ... yet exactly right I mean not only do there is no will ... in return ... but the opposition have been banging on about for the month ... so ... we could to attracting and China meet fiscal targets but the bottom of the rest of the world seems to be going down and so that means is that going to swimming upstream ... it feels even give it more difficult to read and finally up and you get a sense of what's on the streets are increasingly saying thereabouts eight ... leaving the euro European Union ... right now you get ... the public opinion polls show most agreed to support the euro ... this week ago showed that something like seventy five percent greater still ... the bigger and ... bigger and ... of the things that ... we have ... a lot about the euro would have been seen in ... the reading teacher but I don't want to adopt ... with a minute ago now spend the one hundred but that they won't become more intent upon ... by and what I that there is no light at the end of ... the all-time greats us thank you much stamp ... the right very quickly the one thing Greece this ... summer the ... state owns a lot of land along the ... property and and and the ten seconds all of that off and often made at ... that point that improvisation has really started yet maybe one ray of hope for that let's get check the markets up Paul vignette joins the set now dudgeon supporter Markets Hub host ... of welcome morning morning I think I had to ... integrate with this money is editing was done in one bin with ... the with deciding game of a problem several times by now we talk about all morning the stock ... markets ... what you actually get to talk about its Cree's into the anymore so we did early this morning there are rumours flying all over the place ... but Berlusconi is he going to resign is not going to that Beverly it seems that he might the market seems to stage a comeback write anything that is in the market you know ... they they they hear OK Berlusconi is gonna resigned to the market comes back as it is Italy's only problem ... with everything else in the SA and meanwhile their bond yields out of ideas for example jumping to new euro ... the euro is that they got as high as twenty six point six seven percent of the ten year ... that is the one to watch because you know with five others ... it is Italy's Funding Costs become too great for the deal to go for it ... it will go the route of Greece and once the Rovers to ... me doesn't want to receive the in the danger zone right to the kids to step in that piece of this kind of the Aussie teenager will be with us on a second with more D tells on that let's talk about what else is potentially driving ... you know ... it's it's ... a light week for the Market Turns of headline so there's lot of earnings that is the Malat headline earnings is really nice today ... Wednesday he'll get General Motors me sees Disney on Thursday Cisco's this weeks in need of some reports ... that are being notably Italy one notch after this chains are silly ideas last week Macy's is cutting the beloved retelling Eilat investors a circle of debt and think it appeals to lot of people it certain that read between the high and low and it's done ... really well that their sales disappointments I think there's some question as to how true this family will start getting a retailers reporting are on the fiscal year so there are about a month on ... records camelina people may come when we are in the index's right now in other words it looks to me ... if you're looking at it ... given the macro ... outlook in Europe in China's slowing down all that something ... that you may be the case to be made that the indexes are rather expensive now but ... or that they are ... more optimistic that some of them some effect on the ITI out a deal to me you what's going on in the world ... it amazes me in the market is not more pessimistic about it may ... get pretty optimistic and we're still talking about ... more less the year-end rally going into this ... the market is not the future ... one one justification for this sort of saw the housing onto the market to expand unless you can remember the sharp selloff yesterday and September really was one of those three had people saying its pricing in a double dip recession is pricing in the euro area crisis a lot of this started reflect the then obviously though ... in most people's mind Double dip in the US of the ... off the table the US looks limited with all these other issues ... outside its borders that he can slowly continued to grow ... if not in a way that would make ... employment ... gain but that it's it's certainly not this time that is why I think you see the markets at these levels because most people the market think that the US will somehow right sidestep all the spry and macro economy of course is not the only factor that drives asset prices the fact is in relative terms ... there is zero yields in all sorts of their safe ... on alternatives ... which drives the money to take more chances because mainly to him in the spring and policy manager and trying to do exactly that prices of earnings season is almost over to rebuild ... year-old of good earnings season a solid earnings seen certainly not going to try to sell off ... or I think even drive valuation much higher so again you cuddle up with ... Italy varies and it's been a lot of time the silly on Asia but there certainly are signs that China ... Chinese economy is slowing and and as the country's honour the markets overnight where ... it pretty hard ... we went to the social unrest in China to me don't discount that ... at all the new ignorance or more are set at ten thirty am and coming up we talk about the impact in the euro crisis attention to have on the U S ... European leaders don't seem to be getting their arms around their prices so what is the blowback effect on the U S bank Houseman explores this question Outlook column in the Journal today and joins us now on set and welcome ... your name said there are several several things going on here understood Rex order to export channels there's there's trade There's in direct linkage is what people seem to be most worried about we I mean so as the asthe hold direct link is not that be great we send about twenty percent of our exports to Europe from ... its fifty billion dollars a lot of money it's it's a substantial piece of the economy ... but it's not seem to mean if if Europe is ... the limit goes to a mild recession and the direct impacts on the US probably not that ... massive ... the concern is two things right one is this contagion risk with it all been talking about in denial about that and that the financial system ... if you have some kind of Lehman events ... in Europe that is that the credit freeze that it's the US is one thing to watch by the way this afternoon the Federal Reserve is out of the senior loan officer survey now this ... sounds want excited is that it's a great way of saying water lending standards like in the banking system and it made ... so it shall be if the extent to which foreign banks even U S banks are pulling in their Forstall's results when your child Mattioli a moment ago U S exposure to Greece for example not that significant banks of really cold in their risk ... exposure to Italy exposure to European banks that have exposure to these areas much more significant and so one possibility is do you see a credit freeze ... the effects the US and all the sudden U S companies can are higher in part to expand can borrow for their operation to ensure one of the hundreds in your piece ... by U S affiliate income by country and explain what this is daunting ... well it's always see here is that in addition to the basic trade figures ... we've also got about two hundred billion dollars in revenue to U S companies with affiliates in Europe ... that's everything from fuel for this building cars in Europe ... are chemical companies that have factories in Europe U S based companies with affiliates it's a it's a juicy the Netherlands there is a bet that I can and then there ... was in a bunch of tax factors and there were Yuka Switzerland ... a non Luxembourg things like that and you say to you know much about twenty percent its worst ... given that the U S economy itself ... is its offices will grow trajectory ... you know if you're really suffers a significant recession here even absent the financial sector potential ... problems ... it's can be a problem for frenemy we've gotten ... past the point in them in the ... in the world cycle ... with the U S veto sneezes and everybody else misses goals now everybody is so interdependent out us the right testicle ... one way of looking at that is that we have the Asia effect so Europe is a hugely important market for China you were talking moment ago about China signs of a slowdown there if we have a serious recession in Europe that slows demand in China for those products now all the sudden were talking about our exports to China ... or is she lay where we do mining work Caterpillar sales rep mining equipment is used in China and what happens for example if if if Servier has its own problems and there's an opportunity for the US for export markets a step up to some of these other nations like China like ... an Australian Cadel slowed dramatically enough to cut their demand and a history we would do the trick of benefits ... there are possibilities there I mean of course if Europe is seriously weekend and then you know that we help our competiveness email so core competitiveness of weak euro all of us of our products are expensive ... both in the European market and globally it's harder to compete ... we may see some consumer benefits here ... I if we see it true slowdown in Asia and Europe in using lower commodity prices lower oil prices that's good for consumers it's good for retailers ... I think there's really anybody arguing that the global perception with the way and ... try again actually ... I were showing here chart by the way out of goods exports to the EU and the euro area again just come under selling a big piece of our exports but were not on export driven economy It's about thirty percent of GDP and is the final answer to the sense you're in ... among economists that ... in a look there's a mild European recession Areddy Khan of Pakistan are expected to miss the what's the real factor watchers we start to get data of the real question becomes less is there a mild ... European recession and more is there something really that is not yet priced in Europe ... or talk about of course the euro collapse would would do that a disorderly ... default in Greece spread to Italy that is probably not really priced in right now those of the things that start to really ... go for an end and the financial sector I think it's of course most regions ... you simply post gratification manner ... aren't are more mobile than anywhere else Ben's point with which to me me of domestic oriented ... economy ... the one thing that really isn't is that the notion of large financial ... interest in transactions between all of my friends and ancient should I not Fetzer related event Houseman patron much there ... in his palm of that outlook on this image in the Wall Street Journal ... and ... the tension out of Washington where maybe a new front runner for the GOP presidential race emerging and it's a familiar one whose name is new Gingrich after O'Connor joins us now ... that check that it is untrue that Newt Gingrich of all people here in gaining some momentum ... though not necessarily frontrunner yesterday seemed to be the next candidate extended ... benefited from this I'm not Mitt Romney doubts ... Herman Cain's obstacle that mantle for about a month or so ... because he's the secular US allegations and questions about his tax plan ... Herman Cain is losing a little bit of an impulse ... but it seems the index's best positioned to take out of all that I can lose is an even par opted to it what is new doing right ... while ... he say nice things about its competitors which this competitors are not saying about each other ... he's also really highlighting this rule is gonna party elder statesman ... is as you well know and scolding reporters in that debate moderators on that ... everything we've done wrong in all the questions addressed the new trend Broad controversy ... but ... really he's just any he's ready to remind people that he's been around for a long time he understands these issues that unless the candidates in this race ... he ... got off to a terrible start right to from an organisational point of view is the square ... no question about going on vacations ... the twenty third of income ... campaigning in some people's oil that her that if any purchase and to divert ... his old Pursell I ... probably raises an issue for some conservative Republicans ... the isthe is the baggage too much to make him ... really a serious contender ... when we get actual voting in primaries ... when it would not be in ... store ... for any candidate to start off worse than it Gingrich did a pretty much the stumble around the block but criticised in a house with a plan to revamp Medicare ... cannot see there is a story about the line of credit if he is the Nieman on the great vacation in this that with ... the big benefit of all that is that it was basically written up for dead that in June so we haven't been very close attention to him ... the benefit of the Planet of the radar is that there's not scrutiny of your records though I mean that that is the three marriages are some of his stances on ... climate and environment ... that would be a problem with conservative activists really haven't uncovered much so that it has benefited from a lot of coverage over the last few months if the spotlight turns back to them I think you can be sure that these questions will come back into the forefront ... of that and the former speakers can probably answer for for all has to be coming up this season is when settling Wednesday evening on CNBC sure to focus on the economy in ... evincing see whether ... the new Gingrich riff changes the way he's handled these but so are now in the sense that maybe he does have some momentum or whether more of the spotlight ... and that that when Skorney gets for not now ... he is not ... the clear frontrunner is not ... gotten to that one of JI's top spots so will see what happens I think you know if the stars he will ... keep doing what he has been doing because in talking to voters in yearly states of Iowa and Florida and South Carolina where he seems to be doing the best ... they really like in the role he's played in the States ... as the referee at ... all the other candidates in the Taranaki MITI on its side if he were to stray from the PlayBook in all I probably wouldn't work to its detriment ... the big question is whether or not other candidates are going to start its outset of one of the ... points that a number of its orders for is to be over the weekend was that ... you can because of the Gingrich's because of the world with arty it's very top of the other ... Republican stick shot and ... I see that dynamic changes and see prices in the poll so will see ... you know whether it's in the Detroit ... there and it's against the dollar to its top line over the weekend or maybe maybe it's the need for whether that's right so there's a reason just her mind FitBit is still on well behind an hour on a new ... deal for all of these that it's coming and going maybe too his ... bet that have really done that kind of second placed reading keeper did well for him and he I think they're getting this line right he says something about his ... people reading this and that their competitors not opponents the only opponent is the president ... and I think you know I think voters like that sort of ... statesmen ship and and and this certainly an early appeal I also think what this process is pointed out ... very quickly least to me is that the primary ... the city to debate system ... has allowed people ... who have struggled who maybe haven't raced a lot of money ... to to some of staying in the consciousness of the party and party activists ... and really in some ways by positive for small the democracy I think I'm you know I money hasn't completely ruled when you have all these debates and I wonder though I'm ... in a patch of wet why we haven't for example then scenic Gary Johnson or you know Ron Paul who was as Deal mentions are high ... and there have the ability to regain traction ... among voters and yet don't really even a Jon Huntsman who was in in ... in the last debate on is their sense that this really still is an open field at worst of the units have been lost an opportunity ... so it wouldn't as you just pointed out that that it's really been any lasting event for all the candidates in the past it was you know we tended to follow whatever the most money ever had the biggest infrastructure in these early nominating states that to a determined and ... he's got more money in the last month or so but most are getting close to Retailer Ann Ann Romney ... doesn't use infrastructure and yet he still was pulling ... ahead of Romney and a lot of balls ... so that it's been head of the ones who it's for all these candidates to the detriment of some and benefited others just mentioned it yes we just isn't that a lot of debates ... are on all you know I think he has been able to fire up its course ... nobody's been able to expand into debates ... and and a new Gingrich a different example of somebody ... who may be was written off the disabled it been able to come back to the process ... so it's totally wide open with a lot more debates before it starts in January there ... and it did the one key statistic for anyone to look at is the fact that there are three quarters of Republican primary voters to vote in national polls are polls in the early states ... the settlement ... so until we crossed the fifty percent threshold I think this thing isn't in anyone's and our eye catcher O'Connor in Washington I think that thank you Angela ... and coming up some troubling D tells coming out of Penn State will explore the question ... city of Bayless Goni time as Prime Minister of Italy appears to be drying shorten Stacy Nietzsche joins us now from Reaal ... with some the D tells Stacey is but a rollercoaster ride already this morning we seen people saying he is going to step down and then he takes his Facebook page ... nope no joke ... Prime Minister relisting takes his face the nation saying Anfac no he's not can you explain what's going on ... well I think a lot of jockeying going around ... um you know before the knack ... for it in a tie in politics ... a it over the last week there's been a ... mutiny rebellion developing within the political party ... and the feeling right now is that you know the lawmakers agree to make a move some time in Parliament this week ... everyone sort of on the edge ... on the edge of the the the the ... what is the timeline Stacey and is very sort of talk behind the scenes is how all the same way we saw say the Greek prime minister ultimately ... you try and turn over power that the same might be true were or might talks to be happening behind the scenes it out with a lead handling ... right ... well I did today there's going to be a vote in parliament on the routine ... I'm you know budget item ... on the in his or her to be the ... everyday functioning of the government ... on and doing it that you know lawmakers are probably going to either vote against them were detained ... in a bid to demonstrate ... that it was going no longer has an effective majority ... in parliament so ... I think that could be ... something to watch in terms of you know ... the first ambush ... after that you know there's talk of from another profit and the thing organized to the opposition though ... for the domain um ... you know the ... the rebels and Brooch ... Cartier expected that ... maybe joined us confident that he'll call it the ... NCC we've also seen by the late stock market that run these rumors in late September spot favorably Italian bond yields fall whenever it appears he may be ... leaving office who might take ... his place in isn't someone in the markets really will find more encouraging ... Brett ... was a possibility in a bid to do that for us to do that for the dawning ... on and and I like to call for early elections and that if you know you can be fun in the four months of uncertainty ... well we we are going to pull ... the other possibility is that they can form of a technical government ... I'm stuffed with economists basically ... um would be maybe in a position that the ... real ... perform obvious that a more favorable scenario for market ... I think you have this team from the market perspective ... I think ever for someone described only ... as you know too big to fail perhaps too big to save the euro ... is there ... an opposition party ... that has a cohesive plan for how ... fiscal affairs can be better ... better taken into account ... and that would ... be open to the point is made really reassure the markets ... well I think I finally feel winded been outlined by that but the DPP month ago ... um which is to go out there a new leaf in um Italy's Lieber Code ... note that the West The and that that is the token economy ... um ... but the question is you know what what what ... people government actually ... have enough support to push through the front view and extremely unpopular ... now I'm the beginning is that even if the local government were forged ... it is not really clear how long can survive ... ICC majoring ... on denser and denser and bunds only when every time I made him a sales increase your time and of course more entities J dot com ... and just buy one smartly turned tension to an alleged sex abuse case since dropping Penn State ... and it centers on a former defensive court nadir dear Everson joins us now ... on set with the D tells Karen ... well come on pretty amazing based ideas to those who hadn't heard the rumours on seemed to come out of nowhere and what we can expect today I Gissen arraignment with with two university officials who were implicated yes the athletic director Tim Curley and then also weigh on them to university administrator ... expected to turn themselves in today ... on their part all this was they allegedly lied to grand jury about this case ... I back in January so this is obviously for a program that is known for being one of the cleanest ... most respected and cost blow citing one that's ... this is just an Incredibles and yet can you explain to people significance of the God of peace are dying at the center of these allegations and and for Penn State probably for its football program it was this mean for its future now Jerry Sandusky and this is known as linebacker you ... as a school that a lot of linebackers in the pros because of the great Bear Creek defences over the years ... he was at the heart of it for years he was he started at the plant as ... a defensive assistant back in nineteen sixty nine and then became defensive for dinner ... as he was really one of the key people ... on this program for years and he was expected at least ... for awhile this topic in my next scene for places at the turn of the legendary coaches ninety four new still there ... so that's the big question besides what's going happen legally ... with all this whether this will actually end up being the end of Joe's career but also you know obviously this is very different very serious allegations being made here ... we seen ... scandal if the scandal in college football ... you throw this into this to be some broad ... sober reassessment of college football including perhaps a team player so some of those of the big issues that can linger in the years I think the listings are bank stocks right now under a party starters legislation to at least increased with the players are getting in terms of its top line untested US dollars the year ... this is not wholly different well ... I think part of ... the interesting thing about this is that is for speaks to the kind of ... bunker mentality you have these programs ... mean ... this was known back in nineteen eighteen were issues here ... and yet obviously this is ... and second mile by the way is this organization founded by juries and d'Asti that is at the center of a lot of the allegations here it was in an urban was honored at the White House and ... has become a political scandal absolutely mean there's a very important people on the order that organization ... the one that he's ... going back to GSAM's ... for the nineteen seventies ... I now it's an organization that's pre much of the live link to the guy who is alleged to be of ... and lastly what is the time like now we we expect the serena Sina and what what are some fall well I think that the Certusi some more cheese shop today with the administrators ... please take a leave of absence from the University ... and it will just have to see what happens which if ... that's the big next much obsolete gear percent on the Surrey Jerry thanks so much I'd new launches appreciate your time yelling as well but I'll back you up to four pm wrapped before that markets that Digits Mean Street one if any that I'm Kelly Evans The Wall Street Journal thanks Jan and have a great time ...

We know the MTS-5800 does not recognize Training frames, so we set the G620 port speed to 16G to avoid speed negotiation. We also disabled 10/16G FEC and 16G FEC via TTS but we are still receiving Training frames from the G620 (we have captured the traffic between the MTS-5800 and the G620 with an Xgig FC Analyzer. Does anyone know if there is a way we can completely disable the use of TTS on the G620?

Have you run the command?:
portcfgfec --disable -tts
portcfgfec --disable -fec
Can you run command below and provide output?:
portcfgfec --show
Yes we ran those commands and the port configuration is shown below. If you see anything that looks incorrect, please let us know.
However, after further analysis of the frames we captured, we found that the MTS-5800 was generating the wrong primitives and the problem was not with the G620. We still don't understand why the G620 was sending Training frames because it is our understanding that they are only used for speed negotiation and possibly FEC negotiation / announcement, but since the Training frames are not causing our problem, we don't need to pursue that issue any further. Thanks for your help :)

Ten Years Ago Today…
The Nancy and I are in Marco Island, Florida on a sort of mini-vacation with the sole purpose of celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary.
It has been 3652 days since we were married on a gorgeous day at sunset under a blue sky dotted with extremely white puffy clouds as we stood barefoot in the sand at Makena Cove, Maui, Hawaii. As waves of the Pacific broke over lava rocks behind us, the Reverend Alalani Astara Hill joined us as one with a wedding ceremony based on the Hawaiian culture.
There were just five of us on the point that day, The Nancy and I, the preacher, the wedding planner and a videographer, who served as our witnesses. After nearly eight years of being an "item," as it were, and seeing one another only about twice each month, we made the decision to be married somewhere barefoot on a beach at sunset, Hawaii seemed a good choice. We could not have chosen a more beautiful spot or a more perfect day.
I fell in love with this woman long before I knew her. Sounds weird, I know, but I feel it every time I see her or hear her voice. There is "Something in the way she moves," there is a rhythm, a sway, a saunter that draws my eyes to her even now. Her voice, "Attracts me like no other lover," is music to my ears, a symphony I love to listen to over and over. There is prosody is her speech, a poetic rhythm and meter in the way she says certain words, certain phrases. I am drawn to her as a moth is to a light. I love to watch her from across the room when we are at social events, her majesty and grace are always present. She is my princess.
Josh Groban sings a song entitled "When You Say You Love Me." When I hear it I have to close my eyes, the first few words bring me a mental picture of The Nancy, and that picture triggers my emotions and gets my heart to racing and my eyes glistening.
Like the sound of silence calling,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream.
Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,
You say those words and my heart stops beating.
I wonder what it means.
What could it be that comes over me?
At times I can't move.
At times I can hardly breathe.
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive
You're the one I've always thought of.
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love.
You're where I belong.
And when you're with me if I close my eyes,
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time.
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth,
And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words.
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive
And this journey that we're on.
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment.
And when you say you love me,
That's all you have to say.
I'll always feel this way.
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment, I know why I'm alive
When you say you love me.
When you say you love me.
Do you know how I love you?
Florida may not be Maui, Hawaii. The Hilton Marco Island may not be Makena Cove (makena is "abundance" in Hawaiian), though the sun still sets in the west here, too. But some things don't change and really do remain the same. The Nancy has not changed. She is still the most beautiful woman in the world with the blue-gray eyes I fell in love with many years ago and drew me closer to her. There is a grace about her, a gentle personality people are drawn to. She is sincere and open, vulnerable, joyful, competitive, trustworthy and sweet. There just isn't a single thing I could change in her to make her better. The Nancy is a giver, not a taker. She gives so much and asks for little. My love for her is unconditional, and she is so easy to love. All she has to do is just be The Nancy; the rest is up to me.
At the end of the movie "The City of Angels" Seth, the angel played by Nicholas Cage is asked by Cassiel (Andre Braugher) if giving up immortality to be with Maggie Rice (Meg Ryan) for such a short while was worth it, Maggie died after being struck by a car as she rode her bike. Without hesitation, Seth said, "I would rather have had one breath of her hair, one kiss of her mouth, one touch of her hand… than an eternity without it.
As The Nancy and I stood on the shore at MaKenna Cove ten-years ago today, I toasted our marriage with that story as the sun slowly drifted below the horizon. Each year as we watch our wedding video, I think of those words and how they are so exactly true for me each day.
For one breath of her hair, for one kiss of her mouth, one touch of her hand…
And that is all I have to say about that…

How Old Am I?...
Last week our granddaughter sent a text to her grandmother asking for her and for me to participate in a school project. She sent us several questions to answer with regard to our thoughts on aging. I don't remember them all, but I do a few.
The first question was "How old do you feel?" I am not sure what The Nancy answered, I said fifty. Another question was to the state of health we each felt we were in ranked one to ten, one being very healthy. I said two, because I think I am in pretty good shape. At least I thought so until shortly after I answered the question and then I re-visited it for a little while. I originally selected a "two" because as I approach my sixty-seventh birthday, knowing I exercise nearly everyday, have very good stamina, believe I eat right most of the time (well, at least half of the time), watch my weight (The Nancy and I weigh in every Friday), I truly thought of myself as a healthy "hexagenarian." I should not be allowed to think, ever; my pondering gets me into all kinds of trouble.
What had me vexed? Firstly, I thought about how I wake up in the morning with AM pains. I do not bound out of bed as I used to do; I sort of roll out slowly. Then I thought about the back pains I have intermittently, which basically means most of the time. From time to time I get aches in my knees and elbows, and have had tremendous leg cramps in the middle of the night several times a week for a few years. I notice sometimes when I awake in the middle of the night for personal relief (a nice way to say pee) I get a little wobbly as I make my way from the bed to the bathroom – a balance issue, no doubt, that I remember my dad suffered. These days I don't quite bend over as quickly to pick things up, and touching my toes if a laugher. I even find myself grunting as I plop down in my favorite chair these days. And we won't even touch on "regularity."
Another question had something to do with changes I would make to make my life better. I could list them here, but I think you would succumb to boredom before you finished reading the list. Briefly, I would get more sleep – at least sleep each night until daylight awakened me. I would say I would give up any and all sexual activity if there were that much to consider giving up (hells bells, I am still working on the free six-pill sample pack of Viagra I got at the end of my physical in 2001). I would eat abstemiously and healthily 100% of the time, and so on, and so on, blah, blah, blah…
Now maybe the above stuff is not the end of the earth, but I sure as hell didn't experience any of that when I was fifty, back then I had enough hair I could brush from my eyes. I could jog for an hour or more, and did five-six days a week. My weight was lower and I know my cholesterol was a heck of a lot better. I was the picture of health.
If today I were able to compare the two pictures I have described side by side I would probably have to revise the answer I gave to Jessica for her report. I now think I feel a lot like I did when I was 65.
And that is all I have to say about that…

College Football and The Nancy
The final score was 19-14 and The Nancy's team was not on top. The stadium was subdued and stupefied for a few moments as 65,000 fans began to exit the steel and concrete structure that brings them intense pleasure or immense pain. Today, it was the pain. As the shock of the loss sank in, thousands of amateur sports analysts began to dissect it, and the consensus opinion seemed to be, for a team that now has a season record of five wins against two losses, the loss could only be attributable to poor coaching. It was determined the coaches have to go, and that change alone will allow the West Virginia Mountaineers to never, ever lose another game.
I love the see WVU win. It makes The Nancy happy; therefore, it tickles the hell out of me. I can look at West Virginia football from the standpoint as an outsider, and can be, I think, a bit more objective in my analysis than the diehard Blue and Gold fans. The Nancy did not and would not criticize the coaches, but was saddened by the loss. She understands some games are won, other are lost. That is why they call them "contests." Not so with some fans, if the team loses they blame it on the coaches, but cannot attribute it to the fact the other team may have just out played them.
The West Virginia football program has not had a losing season since 2001, and has had a national presence for as long as I can remember. This team has the best winning record of any football team in the country that has never won a National Championship, and has an overall win percentage of .559 throughout its storied history.
I am not a sports nut, I may not even be too bright, but I think a team that finishes a season with a winning record is a heck of a lot better off than one with a losing record. WVU's football teams have acquitted themselves well over the last decade. The present coaching staff has done an outstanding job considering the mess it was left with three years ago when the previous staff walked away after the fans demanded their heads when the team was not 11-0 every year with a bowl win and a shot at the National Championship.
It's very easy to criticize. We as human beings do it all the time. Most of us can give it, but can't take it. These West Virginia fans are a fickle bunch, and it is guaranteed if WVU wins next week, especially if by a large margin, the coaching staff will again be held in high esteem. It is just the way it works.
And that is all I have to say about that…

Football, Basketball and the Upcoming Election…
It's that time of the year. As we approach the middle of the college football season, the beginning of the college basketball season, as well as the end of the 2010 election season, I have come a realization – actually a couple of them.
If the college football and the NFL season where to end today, it would not bother me. As for basketball, I have little or no interest, so the beginning of the season means absolutely nothing to me, but the upcoming election means a lot.
The Nancy, as I have reported many times before, is the sports fan in this house. My enthusiasm for any sport can be maintained on Mondays just with a quick read of the statistic section in the sport pages, but the election is a different story.
I like to think of myself as an independent, but I have to be honest with myself and all of you. While in my voting life I have voted for Democrats, I have to admit my views align with Republicans at least 75% of the time – while against abortion, I am not in favor of denying any woman of her right of control over what happens to her body; I am totally for strict gun control; and as a spiritual person but not a religious one, I resent fundamentalists of any religion controlling a political party. I very much believe in less government involvement in my life. I am not in favor of a national healthcare program run by politicians who have screwed up everything it has ever managed – Social Security, the Postal Service, Cash for Clunkers, Medicare and so on. I am a fiscal conservative and want to see a Constitutional Amendment to force the Federal Government to balance its budget.
I believe, while he might be a great guy to drink a beer with, Barrack Obama may go down as the worst president we have had since Jimmy Carter, who, in case you are too young to remember, was president from 1976 to 1980. When he spoke at the Democrat National Convention in 2004, I was energized by the guy. When he declared himself a candidate I really though I would give him my vote; however, the more he talked, the more I realized he and I were miles apart on the issues confronting this country. Now, two years later, I know I was right, he scares the crap out of me.
Some of you are shaking your heads in disagreement, and that is okay, it's our right as Americans, but let me say this to you, don't forget to vote your conscience on November 2nd.
Enough politics, let's get back to football and basketball? On second thought, let's not?
And that is all I have to say about that.

Lady Bird & The Man Who Invented Christmas Reviews
The end of the year makes for odd mixes and you could hardly find two movies that fit worse in a double feature. On the other hand, despite the lack of attention Christmas fare managed this year, The Man Who Invented Christmas is a film that may well catch continued life for years to come.
Meanwhile, Lady Bird has a Golden Globe and it certainly deserves it.
As we catch up with everything this year and prepare for our Best Lists extravaganza, we'll let you know what's still to come for award season and which films need your attention.

Trade Show Recap – Northwest Cannabis Classic 2015 in Tacoma, WA.
The Northwest Cannabis Classic is a new cannabis trade show series with installments in Anchorage, Tacoma, and Portland meant to highlight the industry growth in these northwestern urban centers. Given the recent implementation of some form of legal cannabis in all three states, we knew we had to sign on as media sponsors for the show and figure out exactly what this area has to offer.
The show took place August 29 and 30 in the historic Tacoma Armory building, recently renovated and reopened for events. Dozens of industry vendors were in attendance, ranging from glass arts and cultural accessories, soil and cultivation supplies, indoor lighting and environmental management, media companies and consultants, analytical laboratories, and of course, seed suppliers and master growers that are the centerpiece of any traditional cannabis cup.
A little wind and rain on Saturday wasn't nearly enough to dampen the festivities; in fact, most of the weekend enjoyed unseasonably California-like weather. Overall it looked like all vendors and industry hopefuls in attendance got in a full weekend of networking and making new friends in the industry, while exhibiting to the public some of what goes on behind the scenes in this growing space.
Here's what we learned:
- While Seattle, WA is definitely the epicenter of cannabis industry in the northwestern region, each state has its own regulations and many of the smaller cities also have claims to fame – like Tacoma, home of lifestyle and social media powerhouse brand DabStars.
- The retail market in Washington is fragmented in terms of how businesses can get their product and marketing out there. For example, a dispensary or medical cannabis producer would be permitted to have a table at private events, but an i502 recreational shop cannot do outside marketing at this time.
- While smoking cannabis in public is not permitted under Washington's legalization policy, the rules on private events tend to be a "grey area," leaving patients and cannabis enthusiasts up in the air as to how best to socialize. Like the campaign currently ramping up in Colorado, an "adult social use" cannabis measure is expected to be proposed in Washington state very soon to fix some of the loopholes.
Then on Sunday, after the local favorites of DabStars and Miss High Times 2015 hosted a generous merchandise giveaway, the awards for best flowers, concentrates, and edibles in the northwestern United States were presented by Russ Belville of 420 Radio.
Read up, aspiring Pacific Northwest entrepreneurs! These cannabis producers are the very best in the game. Based on what we saw from the winners, we're definitely signing up for judges' passes next year. Big thanks to Cory and Kendra Wray for organizing the event – we absolutely loved our first trip to Washington, and can't wait until the Portland show, November 7 and 8!

Bristol rapper ThisisDA packs a lot in a short amount of time with new single "Unstoppable." The track last only a minute and a half, but features a sweet, jazzy instrumental from Ecstra Kool and a compelling set a bars from ThisisDA (a teetotal himself), detailing a man in a troubled relationship with an alcoholic girlfriend.
"Unstoppable" is further evidence that the young MC has a keen ear for beats and a gift for storytelling. However, it will not be on ThisisDA's upcoming debut album Super Arkane, which is due out later this month.

Muslim Refugee Collects Welfare for 4 Years Before Leaving US to Join ISIS
Iranian refugee Adnan Fazeli became radicalized after moving to Maine in 2009.
After collecting welfare for four years Adnan left his wife and three kids and joined ISIS in Syria where he was killed.
The Boston Herald reported:
An Iranian refugee receiving welfare benefits in Maine while becoming self-radicalized before he fought and died for ISIS has an enraged Gov. Paul R. LePage calling for a sweep of all such taxpayer-funded payouts in his state and nationwide.
Adnan Fazeli, 38, came to Freeport, Maine, in 2009 and was killed last year on the battlefield in Lebanon after abandoning his wife and three kids to join the terror army, according to federal court documents unsealed this week.
The family's food stamps and welfare checks were cut off in 2013, Maine officials told the Herald, after Fazeli left the state for Turkey in his quest to join ISIS.
LePage said the stunning news of an Islamic State convert in his midst has left him "embarrassed" and outraged at President Obama's "failed" vetting of immigrants, adding he's fed up with states like his being left to deal with the refugee crisis.

Tourism Regions
Monday, 05 September 2011 23:04 administrator
Due to its vastness and environmental diversity, Iran's tourism regions are very different. Each part of Iran has its own worth-seeing sites. There has been published a tourist guide in each province including necessary information and maps easily accessible in all newspaper stands and public places.

In the process of testing the latest draft of DBA-HX 3.0 General officers went through significant changes. The majority favoured a single based General while I lingered with a command element. The later form counted as part of a command, while the single based officer is not.
The issue was resolved such that I began re-basing my command elements. Not a big task but the end result looks nicer.
Seven Generals on the left are Russian and Six French are formed on the right. I still mounted an extra figure to distinguish between General officers of cavalry or infantry. At 15mm scale I found flags useful to better identify nationality.
The command element in the background is there merely to illustrate the older style. I will eventually change the command elements for the other collections.

Earlier today, as I was making a list of things I needed to pack between now and February 12th, I realized I was planning for vacation. But not your typical vacation- as much as I would love to take my kids to the San Diego Zoo and show hubby Mexico or explore the Deep South with my family, pointing out all the places I used to hang out, I am not able to afford such luxury at this time in my life. However, I CAN afford to go to Minneapolis for 50 hours and partake in 50 hours of live trivia action!
I graduated from St Cloud State University, a medium-sized university about an hour northwest of Minneapolis. While a student there, our campus television station partnered with the campus radio station and helped to broadcast a giant trivia contest which runs for 50 straight hours and it's still going on! In fact, it's been going on for 30 years! Some of the questions are tough, some are easy, but the whole thing is a blast! Teams work together to solve questions and everybody over-caffeinates themselves. You do need a detox program and a lot of extra sleep the week after participating, but it's worth it to cure the cabin fever a lot of us snowed-in Minnesotans come down with this time of year.
What is this "vacation" going to entail? Massive amounts of research via the internet, books and other sources as well as listening to "audio trivia" and trying to study up on "visual trivia" which comes in your team package. Massive amounts of drinking caffeinated products (unless you happen to be nursing a child, or freakishly intolerant of such chemicals), eating, minimal amounts of sleep and lots of catching up, visiting and chatting about what we have all been up to the past year. Those of us on this particular team are all former members of the campus television studio so we have all worked it throughout the years and now have a team. I must say, both sides of it are equally fun!
If you are experiencing cabin fever and have nothing better to do the weekend of Valentine's Day, consider putting together a team and joining in on the fun. Since you can listen to the questions via the broadcast on any internet-connected computer, the contest is open to any and everyone world wide, not just Minnesotans! In fact, I think there is a team that plays from Ithica, New York! If you'd like to join in the fun, you can find registration materials here.

Winner named in Strib's headline contest
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune's reader representative announced a winner to her headline contest, and a Capital Idea reader was commended for his work. (Read this for background.)
Kate Parry liked a headline by Mike Innocenzi on a story about a priest who caught a walleye and landed on the Internet: "Record catch no longer walleye of the beholder." Mike works in the art department of Dallas' People Newspapers. (He has a blog.)
Alas, Mike wasn't the overall winner:
But after consultations with the copy desk, a winner was declared: Kim Cope triumphed with the headline trio, "Defense stymies 911 info,"Priest's fish spawns Web suckers: Is the jig up?" and "Osama seized!" Kim lives in Minneapolis and writes content for attorneys' websites in her job with the FindLaw division of Thomson West. Her win was even more impressive after she explained that she wrote the headlines while a cat walked back and forth across her computer keyboard.No word on whether she'll actually spend a night with the copy desk -- or try to beat them in trivia. (Vince, can you fill us in?)

IE: Running count of 8 is divided by number of decks remaining, in this case 4, and the result is 2. As the dealing of the cards progresses, the credibility of the count becomes more accurate, and the size of the player's wager can be increased or decreased with a better probability of winning when the deck or shoe is rich in in face cards and aces, and betting and losing less when the deck. The second one is what I call 'casual' card counting and it is something which is pretty easy to do.

Father's Day Gift Ideas for the Dad Who Has Everything
Picking out a gift for Father's Day is a lot of responsibility. You want it to reflect the love and respect you have for your dad, and you want it to be useful and practical. You have already given your dad a gift for Father's Day every year for as long as you can remember, so finding a unique gift can be a real challenge.
The key to coming up with a great Father's Day gift is to think about what your dad likes to do. Every dad has a hobby or sport he enjoys. If your dad is not the sporting type, he probably spends his time reading, making things, or doing home repairs. Some dads are car guys, while others are couch potatoes. Here are gift ideas grouped by what dads like to do.
The DIY Dad
Gifts for DIY dads are easy to find because things like home improvement projects are popular on television. In fact, getting your dad some videos of popular home improvement shows would be a good start. You could also include some how-to videos on specific projects he plans to tackle. Even the most skilled carpenter will enjoy a refresher on certain techniques before starting his own project.
In addition to videos, consider books on various building topics. Project idea books with plenty of full-color photos make great gifts. If your dad is considering extending the deck, for instance, some idea books might excite him about the possibilities. You can find idea books for all types of projects, both outdoor and indoor.
If your dad is more of a reclaimed project kind of guy, consider giving him a piece of architectural salvage from a flea market. Imagine the uses your dad could dream up for an old mahogany null post or a ladder back chair that has seen better days. Your gift could become the inspiration for his next project.
All projects require materials and tools. Your dad might already have every tool known to man, but materials are another story. They are consumable, so materials for a project are always a good gift idea. If your dad is into woodworking, find him a beautiful piece of exotic wood. Reclaimed drawer pulls or knobs can make a good gift, too, and they have many uses.
The Cigar Aficionado
There are plenty of gift ideas for a man who enjoys a good cigar. Cigars themselves are a great consumable gift that you could repeat every year by simply varying the type or brand. For aficionados, the more exotic, the better. In addition to cigars sourced from faraway places, you could also give the gift of accessories.
The most important accessory for a real cigar lover is a humidor to keep his stock from drying out. A properly stored cigar gives an even burn and a mellow flavor. A real aficionado needs more than one humidor. A custom cigar humidor can be used to store some cigars while others are placed in a bourbon cigar infusion humidor to create a variety of flavors.
There are a number of different accessories you could buy for your dad, from clippers to ashtrays. Clippers can be designed to be more effective on different sized cigars, and they also get dull. If your dad already has a clipper, he could probably use another. Ashtrays and other cigar accessories come in different shapes and sizes. They are unique, and many of them are collectible.
Finally, a cigar should be lit with a big flame. Whether your dad prefers matches or a lighter is a personal preference. He'll want a lighter with a large adjustable flame. If he is more of a matches guy, the matches should be wood and easy to strike. You have to hold a match for a while to get a good light on your cigar, so be sure the matches are long and slow-burning.
The Beer Enthusiast
Beer certainly makes a good Father's Dad gift for a man who enjoys it. It is a consumable gift that you can repeat each year. The key is to find something unique, new or nostalgic. A beer enthusiast is always up for trying a beer he has never tasted before. If you are not sure of his exact preferences, go with a variety pack. You might find various flavors from the same brewery packages together, or you can make your own gift pack by including several beers under the same label.
You may want to add some accessories to your gift of beer. There are collectable beer steins available that your dad may like. Some are meant for use and others are decorative. You can probably find one with your dad's favorite brand on it or a clever saying. You can customize a beer stein for your dad, adding his name or picture to make a one-of-a-kind keepsake gift.
Many beer enthusiasts make their own beer. If your dad hasn't tried this yet, he may enjoy it. You could get him a brewing kit with all the items he needs to make his home brew. If he is an experienced home brewer, you could always buy him some refill supplies. Special glass bottles, bottles cans, a manual capping device, and a batch of unique hops make good gifts for the beer enthusiast.
If your dad likes making his own home brew, he might also enjoy aging his own whiskey. The process is much simpler, but the results are equally as unique. You need a custom whiskey barrel to age your own whiskey. The home aging process can be used to flavor your own whiskey and make unique blends. You could get your dad started with a personalized whiskey barrel for Father's Day.
The Healthy Dad
Whether your dad is into clean food and healthy diet or fitness classes and working out, Father's Day is a great opportunity to support his efforts. There are a number of different gifts to consider. Healthy food is a good place to start, but buy him more than an organic carrot — get him the whole farm.
Invest in a share at a local co-op for your dad. It's a unique gift that provides healthy provisions for the entire season. Most co-ops have various ways to buy in. If a full share is too much, ask about a half share. Each co-op is different, and they can tell you approximately how much produce you can expect for each share.
If your dad is into fitness, consider a type of fitness monitor. Many dads are into gadgets and statistics, and a monitor delivers both. You could also buy him some fitness gear. Depending on what sport he plays, the gear may be expensive, but you can concentrate on accessories. Good socks that provide great arch support are one option. As people age, their feet require more support, and they tend to experience increased foot pain. You could also look into gloves designed to protect hands during certain workouts and fitness belts for back support.
The Dad Who Doesn't Know How to Cook
Cooking can be a fun and relaxing hobby, but if your dad doesn't know how to cook, he'll need your help. You could start by getting him some basic equipment like a manly apron, some long tongs for grilling and a good quality skillet. Any kitchen store is full of ideas for basic cooking equipment. Keep it simple, so your dad doesn't become overwhelmed.
Another idea for the dad who doesn't know how to cook is easy-to-use appliances. Rice cookers and bread makers do all the work for you. You simply put in the ingredients and push a button.
Cooking lessons would be a great gift, too. Some kitchen stores like Williams Sonoma offer cooking classes. You may also find available classes at your local technical school or community college. Planning a cooking lesson destination trip could be fun, too. There are several wineries and culinary schools around the country that offer weekend classes and accommodations for casual cooks.
If a cooking trip is a bit too much for your dad, consider cooking videos. Specific cooking lessons on video or videos of popular cooking shows would be useful. You can also find books about cooking that actually teach lessons on different cooking techniques. They are different from cookbooks full of recipes, but those are useful, too.
The Tech-Savvy Dad
If your dad is into gadgets, you're in luck. There is a gadget out there for everything from sleeping better to saving money. Try the new programmable thermostats that track energy usage and can be operated by your smartphone from anywhere in the world. There are a number of other devices that can be operated from a smartphone. Look into security cameras, lamp timers and remote control ceiling fans.
The fun thing about shopping for a tech-savvy dad is finding something he has never heard of and that none of his friends have. Consider a headband-mounted LED strobe light or a dashboard camera.
The Frugal Dad
A frugal dad will be happiest knowing that you didn't spend a lot on his gift. It doesn't have to be cheap — but it should be a great deal. You might want to shop on auction websites or in antique stores or other places where you can find used items.
Used items can contain plenty of value. Baseball gloves, for instance, are better once they're broken in. Other items, like sports trading cards, have hidden value. If you can buy something for less than it's worth, your frugal dad will probably appreciate the story as much as the gift.
The Outdoorsman
A dad who likes to fish, hunt and camp can never have enough gear. Consider a manual coffee maker that uses k-cups. You simply insert the k-cup, pour in hot water and gravity does the rest. It certainly improves the quality of coffee around the campfire. There are also many multiple-use gadgets small enough to fit in his pocket. They usually combine several types of hand tools, screw drivers and can openers in one a handy little item.
Never underestimate a good pair of binoculars. Technology is making high-powered binoculars smaller and easier to carry — and less expensive. Upgrading your dad's binoculars would make a great gift. In addition, consider getting him a new case for them.
Outdoorsmen usually carry a lot of gear with them, so a comfortable bag to carry — one with plenty of pockets to hold different things — is another good gift idea.
The Intellectual Dad
Maybe your dad would rather read "The Wall Street Journal" from cover to cover than go outside and enjoy a baseball game. For an intellectual dad, you could start with a subscription to a business news periodical like "Baron's" or "Financial Times." If literature is more his thing, try "The New Yorker" or "The Atlantic."
Consider your dad's favorite author. You could also search for recent publications by similar authors and give one of those a try. There are also courses available online or on video in nearly every subject. A three-hour lecture on Civil War history might be exactly what makes your dad's day.
The Water Sports Dad
Whether he is into sailing or yachting, there are plenty of ideas for your dad this Father's Day. Think of the consumable items on a boat — the things you can never have enough of because they wear out and you need another one. Anything from lines to fender socks could become a good gift for your dad.
If he keeps his boat at a marina, consider under-writing some of his annual costs. There is dockage, winterizing, storage, maintenance, fuel and other services the marina provides. If your dad has a private dock, it requires regular maintenance and upkeep. He might appreciate some new corner bumpers to protect his boat the next time he brings it in a little too close.
Count on Deep South Barrels for Oak Aging Barrels for Dad
This guide should help you find your dad a Father's Day gift he loves — one that shows him how important he is to you.
