Richard Hobbs, curator, British Museum
My first encounter with the Mildenhall treasure was back in 1977 when I was eight years old. I received a copy of the new Roald Dahl book, an author of whom, like many children of my generation, I was a huge fan. 'The Wonderful story of Henry Sugar and six more' was a collection of short stories (I still have it; perhaps it's worth something, as a first edition) which bear more relation with Dahl's rather macabre tales aimed at adults than the timeless classics for children such as 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' or 'James and the Giant Peach'. Henry Sugar is a story about a man who discovers the ability to see through playing cards, and uses his gift to win vast sums of money in casinos. After the buzz of winning wears off, he starts to use his newly found wealth for acts of philanthropy: first giving his money away to random strangers (the cover depicts Sugar throwing wads of £20 notes out of a high storey window), then building orphanages.
But I was more drawn to one of the other stories in the collection, simply entitled 'The Mildenhall treasure', and about a rather different type of discovery, the discovery of treasure: one of the few stories of Dahl's career as a writer he based on real events.
As Dahl explains in his preface, he decided to re-publish the story, with a few tweaks, because this was not the first time the story had an airing. In fact, 'The Mildenhall treasure' (then entitled 'He plowed [sic] up $1,000,000') was one of the first pieces of journalism he ever sold as a fledgling writer in the immediate post-war years – Dahl was a fighter pilot in the RAF – to an American magazine called 'The Saturday Evening Post'. In both versions Dahl creates a narrative around the discovery of the hoard of late Roman silver in the winter of 1942 at the height of the Second World War by local farmer, Gordon Butcher, subsequently excavated by Butcher and his boss Sidney Ford. (The story was republished for a third time in 1999, this time as a stand-alone book with illustrations by Ralph Steadman).
Dahl's story stayed with me, and in the late 1980s when I was studying for an archaeology degree at University College London, I recalled Dahl's story when the Mildenhall treasure was mentioned during a lecture on the archaeology of the later Roman Empire, taught by the legendary Richard Reece. Richard also alluded to a conspiracy theory surrounding the discovery of the treasure, saying that many believed it had been flown in to the military airbase at Mildenhall from somewhere in the Mediterranean, perhaps North Africa. I remember saying to him: 'But what about Roald Dahl's story? Surely that describes very plausibly how it was discovered?', or words to that effect. My comment was met with a blank look. It only occurred to me afterwards that Richard had never come across Dahl's 'account': it was, after all, published in a book for children.
Of course, staff at the British Museum knew the story very well, having been contacted about it by countless school children over the years. Indeed to this day many children, having read the story, are drawn to the Roman Britain gallery to see the treasure for themselves. But how valuable is Dahl's account? Although his intention was first and foremost to tell a good yarn, it is not without worth to archaeologists seeking the 'truth' about the discovery. This is because it was based on what may have been the only interview with Gordon Butcher, the original finder of the treasure. As Dahl explains in his preface, he drove to Mildenhall having read about the discovery in the Times, persuaded Gordon Butcher to talk to him, faithfully noted down everything Butcher said, and, in Dahl's own words, 'wrote the story as truthfully as I possibly could'.
Having successfully sold it to the American magazine, he shared the fee he received with Butcher who sent Dahl a note saying 'you could have knocked me over with a feather when I saw your cheque'. But because Butcher's boss Sidney Ford, not Butcher, took the treasure home, after the treasure emerged from hiding in 1946 the focus shifted to Ford, and Butcher's part in the whole affair was rather overlooked. It appears that no-one, particularly the archaeologists who investigated the circumstances surrounding the discovery, thought to ask Butcher what he recalled of the moment when his plough struck something in the ground – no-one except Roald Dahl.
Dahl himself came to see the treasure in 1946 when it was first put on display. Of the experience, he writes: 'It was fabulous. I got the shivers… just from looking at it.' He was not the first to be affected in this way and certainly not the last – myself included.
Richard Hobbs is curator of Romano-British collections and is currently on a British Academy Mid-Career Fellowship to publish the Mildenhall treasure

There have been numerous studies comparing the memory performance of smokers to nonsmokers, and smokers always come out behind. Several studies show a direct correlation between smoking and decreased performance in memory for names and faces, as well as a decline in verbal memory. Another recent study included nearly ten thousand people and tracked their memory decline with age. People who smoked had five times the amount of decline that nonsmokers had.
There are two possible reasons for the memory decline experienced by smokers. The first is that smoking damages the lungs and constricts the blood vessels. This decreases the amount of oxygen that can get to the brain, which causes the brain to function at decreased efficiency and can cause some damage. The second reason is that smoking can cause hypertension which can damage the tiny blood vessels that feed the neurons in the brain. Without proper blood flow, the neurons will become damaged. The good news is that quitting smoking can reverse the decline and improve memory performance.

July 8th News and Notes
Robert Cleave
July 08 2010 10:56AM
The NHL's first week of free agency has passed with nary an ESPN special in sight, but that doesn't mean that it's been without interest. This week in the round-up, we'll review the fall-out from the Flames' attempt to recreate, well, something or other, as well as news from other clubs, and I'll have a look at the Globe and Mail's series on the potential for new Canadian franchises.
You know, we were just sort of floating along on Thursday afternoon, watching other teams spend a pile of dough and wondering if Alex Tanguay could regain his form upon his return to Cowtown. Little did we know what the boss had up his sleeve. I listened with interest to Darryl Sutter's press conference last Friday, and beyond his usual potpourri of half-truths, homilies and snark for the assembled scribes, he did unload a few worthwhile bits of information. Daymond Langkow's status is a worry, full stop. He's the only center, and one of exactly two forwards total on the current roster (Bourque) that has any recent pedigree of being able to out-play top six competition. If he can't come back at something near 100%, the club is in a pickle.
No discouraging words from the Captain, though. He took time from working with some young folks yesterday to have a chin-wag with the Calgary media, and exuded his normal sunny optimism about prospects for next year. He's not entirely wrong when he notes that a few players on the roster a due for a bounce-back, although expecting aging players to pull that sort of performance off isn't that certain a bet. I'm not sure I buy the premise that Joker and Tanguay have ceilings in the 90 point range at their age and with their recent performance considered, and personally I'd be ecstatic if the three of them managed 180-200 points combined and didn't get torched in the process.
The club added a few potential ruffians as well, with Raitis Ivanins getting the usual Flame contract for a designated square-dancer. Why did the Flames let Dawes go, again? The answer to that is actually something Daz hinted at when he called the diminutive Winnipegger " a good little player." The fetish that this and a few other clubs in the league have for size and toughness over skill on their bottom two lines is a bit of a head-scratcher. The Ivanins types never play when the games are in the balance, and they never play in the post-season. Bah.
The usual array of questionable contracts flew around last Thursday, and Derek Boogaard almost certainly received the worst one of all. It's a completely indefensible deal. Even by sluggo standards, he can't play. Just for the purposes of comparison, he received a better contract than Dan Ellis, who's an actual useful NHL goalie, more money than our old pal Chris Higgins, and almost as much per year as Chris Mason, who was the next goalie in line for Canada's Olympic team. I don't like the Ivanins deal. If Boogaard was on my team, I might stroke out.
Defencemen were the players that made off with most of the booty last week, but of all the deals handed out, the only one where I thought, "that's not bad" was the Michalek deal. It's full value for his skills, but he's very good at playing top comp and doing it from some less than ideal starting points. It hasn't just been UFA defenders getting paid. Braydon Coburn, Kyle Quincey and Jeff Schultz all received their piece of the rock this week, and the salary numbers for all of them suggest that the market value for Ian White is, at a minimum, 3 million a year. Schultz only got 2.75M, but he got a longer term and he's not likely as good as White or Coburn.
Meanwhile, the closest thing that the NHL has to the "will he, won't he" madness infecting the NBA at the moment is the tiresome Kovy-stakes. If he really wants to win, he can't expect a team to pay him 10 mil a year. I don't hate him, but he isn't that good, and any team that dropped enough salary to accommodate him would likely be too thin to make a run through the post-season. This morning brings news that the Devils might be the last NHL team standing, which may well snip Rudy Kelly's last strand of sanity.
Speaking of people that wanted too much to hang around North America, Evgeni Nabokov hit the bricks yesterday, and the salary he received from SKA almost certainly would dwarf any offer that he might have garnered on this side of the ocean. It's possible, as Gabe Desjardins has been postulating this week, that the goalie market has actually now over-corrected, but Nabokov was a roughly league average goalie asking for big money in a well-stocked market. As long as he stuck to his salary demands, his story was always going to end this way.
Another player that might well have to make a leap to the East (and I don't mean Conference) is Alex Frolov. He's the next most famous forward left that has any tread on his tires, and yet it's largely been crickets. He's a good player, but he didn't exactly endear himself to Terry Murray or Dean Lombardi at various points last year, and if you want to strangle your value as a UFA, having your boxcar numbers slide while feuding with club management is a pretty sure-fire way to do so. His case does point to the difficulty that teams sometimes have in assessing a dollar figure to players that can handle tough comp. Is he worth 5 million a year, as his demands are reputed to be? Questionable, really. I'm not sure he's been as good or better than Rene Bourque the last two years, to use a local example. Is Frolov worth 50% more than RBQ? Like I said, questionable at best, even though he's a player I hold in some esteem.
In off-ice matters, the Globe and Mail and TSN have been reviewing the viability of various cities in Canada should the NHL need to locate a franchise north of the border. Anyone following closely won't be surprised by the results. There are flaws in every potential Canadian market, whether from a lack of population/head offices (Winnipeg, Quebec) to unsuitable buildings (Hamilton) to the presence of the Leafs (Hamilton, Toronto 2). Bruce Dowbiggin brings up the splitting of local TV markets as well, which is something that rarely gets discussed. Consider a potential Winnipeg team for a moment. The Flames and Oilers currently have unfettered access to the Prairies via Sportsnet West. I can watch a Flames' game here in Winnipeg without having to resort to anything beyond my normal cable package. So can anyone in Saskatchewan. What would be Winnipeg's "local" TV footprint if a team was moved here? Just Manitoba? Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Ontario from Thunder Bay west? The latter would likely give a new team a better chance of attracting ad revenue, but would the Flames and Oilers just accept the loss of their secondary market out of good will? I don't doubt that there are fresh eyeballs in Manitoba and maybe Saskatchewan that would prefer to watch a Winnipeg team's game, but the fact remains that no matter were the Winnipeg team's viewers came from, the result would still be at least a small cut to the viewership (and ad revenue) of the Alberta franchises.
Finally this week, I'm sure most of you have read Derek Zona's piece at Copper and Blue regarding discrimination and homophobia in hockey. If you haven't, it and John Fischer's companion post at In Lou We Trust are well worth the time.
We'll talk to you next week.

Some details on those scouts the Flames let go recently from Hall this morning. Interesting bit for me:
Button himself delivered the news to Sands, director of amateur scouting; Tuer, senior scout of the Western Hockey League...
Meaning the Flames just canned the head scout of the area where they've concentrated an inordinate amount of their picks since 2003. I find this...surprising.
July 08 2010, 11:50AM
@Kent Wilson
Not surprising at all. Now that Stone is here, Brett is going to need a job...
On splitting TV markets... last year I heard Ken King speak at a luncheon. At that time he suggested that Quebec City was more likely to be the destination than Winnipeg for this exact reason. Montreal having ownership of the entire French language market is apparently quite an advantage, and there is enough room in the numbers for a second team. No idea about the amount of money or any details, but the logic seems sound.
Surprising I know, since he also says that Darryl Sutter is the right guy for the GM job. He obviously has his crazy days as well.
Pierre LeBrun on Twitter announces that Jay Feaster is Calgary's new Assistant GM...
The best we can hope for is that Feaster uses his old connections and "clutch-mania" to land Brad Richards for beans.
Otherwise it's no upgrade, but honestly, who pays attention to the Ass-Man?

...The final decisions ware made by Button and Darryl. Button is Darryl's lap dog and is a survivor of the nth degree. If anything Button should be canned. But then who would stroke Darryl's...ummm...ego ;)
...what a greasy inbred organization.

One of those things I have to do fairly often in multithreaded programming is send off a whole bunch of threads to do their thing while I do something else on the main thread until they're done. For example, imagine you're downloading a bunch of images from the web, you don't want to call httpGet one image right after another, because network resources are slow and processing them takes up almost no CPU time. But on the other hand, forkIO doesn't return anything, so a thread thunk will have to put its contents somewhere you can access them later. Thus, my short, simple solution, far too small to bother putting up on Hackage:
module Control.Concurrent.Future where import Control.Concurrent future :: IO a -> IO (MVar a) future thunk = do ref <- newEmptyMVar forkIO $ thunk >>= putMVar ref return ref forceAll :: [MVar a] -> IO [a] forceAll = mapM takeMVar
To use this, simply do a mapM (future thunk) parms, where thunk corresponds to (thunk :: IO a -> IO (MVar a)) and parms is the list of parameter sets (one item per thread), an [a]. This will spark off a whole bunch of threads that will do their thing while you continue along in the program. Then when you need all the data, forceAll (also known as a "barrier" in multithreaded programming lingo) will take a list of asynchronous actions and force the program to wait for them all to complete. If you need all the results immediately after you spark the threads, then the following simple line will do:
stuff' <- mapM future stuff >>= forceAll

Using imagery from the Landsat 8 satellite, scientists have confirmed that a large landslide occurred in southeastern Alaska on February 16, 2014. A preliminary estimate suggests the landslide on the flanks of Mount La Perouse involved 68 million metric tons (75 million short tons) of material, which potentially makes it the largest known natural landslide on Earth since 2010.
The Operational Land Imager on Landsat 8 acquired this image on February 23, 2014. The avalanche debris appears light brown compared to the snow-covered surroundings. The sediment slid in a southeasterly direction, stretching across 7.4 kilometers (4.6 miles) and mixing with ice and snow in the process. The slide was triggered by the collapse of a near-vertical mountain face at an elevation of 2,800 meters (9,200 feet), according to Colin Stark, a geophysicist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University.
Stark first became aware that a landslide may have occurred when a rapid detection tool that sifts through data collected by a global earthquake monitoring network picked up a signal indicative of a fairly significant event. The earthquake sensors detect seismic waves—vibrations that radiate through Earth's crust because of sudden movements of rock, ice, magma, or debris.
While both earthquakes and landslides produce both high-frequency and low-frequency waves, landslides produce more low-frequency waves on balance than earthquakes. Most earthquake detection tools are focused on high-frequency waves, but the detection tool Stark was using—the Global Centroid-Moment-Tensor (CMT) Project—also looks closely at low-frequency waves, meaning it is more likely to detect landslides than other tools.
Since the Global CMT tool had detected a significant event, while other tools managed by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Alaska Earthquake Information Center had not, Stark suspected he had found a landslide. Additional analysis of the seismic data by Columbia scientists Göran Ekström and Clément Hibert confirmed Stark's hunch, narrowing the location down to a 25 square-kilometer (10 square-mile) area in southeastern Alaska.
The first visual confirmation that the slide had occurred came on February 22, 2014, when helicopter pilot Drake Olson flew over and photographed landslide debris at 58.542 degrees North and 137.01 West. Landsat 8 passed over a day later, offering another view of the slide.

"I wanted this shoe for a really long time. I finally bought them and when they arrived they were gorgous, but they fit to big around the top making the shoe fit/feel/look different. I had to return these shoes. I tried another pair in case it was the make of the shoe and it was the shoe, or maybe my foot is to skinny. However i did find another shoe to purchase."

UPDATED: Oil nab F Ryan Jones off waivers
March 03 2010 10:31AM
After completing a trade with Nashville yesterday, the Oilers have claimed winger Ryan Jones, 26, off waivers from the Preds today.
Here's what The Hockey News has to say...
ASSETS: Plays with an all-out hustle that gets him noticed by his coaching staff. Can play either wing position. Has good size and decent offensive ability.
FLAWS: Isn't great in the defensive zone. Needs to perform with greater consistency at the highest level. Must be more disciplined and not take bad penalties.
CAREER POTENTIAL: Depth winger.
CapGeek lists Jones as a $975,000 cap hit through the end of next year.
Some quick twitter reactions...
Gregor: Grabbing Jones means the Oilers have 14 forwards...so they can move two and still have 12 for tonight...two vets for picks, makes sense?
Willis: I'm a fan of the Jones pick-up. With any luck he takes Jacques' spot in the lineup next season.
Stay tuned for more from Gregor, Brownlee & Willis. And checkout the Jean Lefebvre's liveblog over at FlamesNation for up to the minute commentary on deadline day.

yep and at the end he wasn't steve the pirate anymore =(
i prefer not to think of the ending of that movie.
Excellent day for Tambo. Shed more than $5 million in cap space and gained decent picks plus Ryan Whitney. Outstanding.
I totally agree. I can't believe all the whining on the board about the trades.
Whitney is bigger, more abrasive, can work PP and PK, is younger and cheaper than Lubo. The 6th pick provides a "sweetner" Draft Day. This was a good trade on several fronts.
Steady Steve is now gone along with his cap hit - he was a great team guy and warrior. I'll miss him, but like clearing the cap space. Johnson is unproven, very cheap, and will be a 5-6-7th D.
The waiver pick up was a great one - more size and grit, and cheap. Check out the Predator boards - they are indicating this is the next Peverly (sp).
Finally, Grebs gone too. Shedding a salary for a 4th/5th defenceman.
In the end, EDM got grittier, bigger, leaner on the salary cap, and stockpiled picks. Not too shabby.
Now the bad part - the rest of the season and tonights shelling..

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 01/22/14 -- Energy Income Fund (TSX:ENI.UN) (the "Fund") announces that distributions from the Fund in 2014 will be reduced to $0.01 per unit per month. Unitholders of record on the last day of each month of 2014 will continue to be paid distributions on the 15th day (or first business day thereafter) of the ensuing month.
The monthly distributions have been set in light of the ongoing performance of the Fund's investments. The manager believes that the new distribution will more closely align the Fund's distributable income with its payout rate and be sustainable over the long term.
The Fund reviews its distribution policy annually and sets its policy based on a number of factors including the amount of distributable income, taxability of distributable net capital gains and net income, withholding taxes on foreign investments, timing of income with regard to distributions as well as the investment objectives, strategy and restrictions of the Fund.
Participants in the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan will continue to receive their distributions in units, with no changes in the basis of calculation.
The following distributions per unit will be declared payable on each distribution payment date to unitholders of record on the applicable distribution record date as indicated below:
Amount Record Date Payment Date ($CAD) ----------------------------------------------------------- January 31, 2014 February 18, 2014 $0.01 February 28, 2014 March 17, 2014 $0.01 March 31, 2014 April 15, 2014 $0.01 April 30, 2014 May 15, 2014 $0.01 May 31, 2014 June 16, 2014 $0.01 June 30, 2014 July 15, 2014 $0.01 July 31, 2014 August 15, 2014 $0.01 August 31, 2014 September 15, 2014 $0.01 September 30, 2014 October 15, 2014 $0.01 October 31, 2014 November 17, 2014 $0.01 November 30, 2014 December 15, 2014 $0.01 December 31, 2014 January 15, 2015 $0.01

DevOps is often described as a combination of technology and culture. Without both, DevOps isn't complete. However, applying the culture to outdated technology is a recipe for disaster; as response times grow and connections between teams are delayed by technology, the culture will die.

DevOps is being widely accepted (if not fully adopted) as essential in enterprise IT. But as Enterprise DevOps gains maturity, expands scope, and increases velocity, the need for data-driven decisions across teams becomes more acute. DevOps teams in any modern business must wrangle the 'digital exhaust' from the delivery toolchain, "pervasive" and "cognitive" computing, APIs and services, mobile devices and applications, the Internet of Things, and now even blockchain.

Skip to comments.Immigration bill to bring in at least 33 million people, says group
Posted on 04/26/2013 10:12:16 PM PDT by Jet Jaguar
The pending Senate immigration bill would bring a minimum of 33 million people into the country during its first decade of operation, according to an analysis by NumbersUSA, a group that wants to slow the current immigration rate.
By 2024, the inflow would include an estimated 9.2 million illegal immigrants, plus 2.5 million illegals who arrived as children dubbed Dreamers plus roughly 3.4 million company-sponsored employees with university degrees, said the unreleased analysis.
The majority of the inflow, or roughly 17 million people, would consist of family members of illegals, recent immigrants and of company-sponsored workers, according to the NumbersUSA analysis provided to The Daily Caller.
The estimate is likely the first of several that will be produced by advocates as the Senate grapples with the immigration bill developed by the Gang of Eight senators.
The 844-page bill was released last week, and was scheduled for debate and amendment in the Senatee judiciary committee starting April 25. However, the amendment process was held up for a week by Republican Senators, who said they need more time to study the complex bill.
Advocates for the bill have yet to release any estimates of the future inflow.
Nobody has a number that is based on the bill right now thats accurate, Lynn Tramonte, deputy director of the pro-immigration Americas Voice Education Fund, told the Christian Science Monitor in an April 25 article. Itll take a bit more [analysis] to get a specific number about how things will change.
A high inflow could prove to be a political problem for the bills advocates.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
And the great American experiment in Liberty dies.
They think Barry's CommieCare is in trouble now, wait until 33 million foreigners are added to the list. LOL!
Caused by our enemies within.
I have said it over and over again, 30-50 million newly legalized illegals comprised of former illegals and their immediate families.
I had an exchange with another freeper who was defending Rand Paul's position and he could not wrap his mind around this number. I said that any "immigration reform" that includes a "path to citizenship" is not acceptable. We must fight this with all our might. This is literally an existential moment for our republic. Please, please, call and write your representatives and tell them NO! to "path to citizenship" and NO! to anything that does have border enforcement before anything else.
Might as well just give the entire country to Mexico and be done with it.
That would exceed the combined population of the above states.
Well, they've already got us pressing one for English.
The politicians on this have done no research. NO thinking no consideration.
Next to the framers they look like Lisa Douglas from Green Acres.
And that is dangerous considering the weight of their plan.
Rubio is being played like a one eyed jack.
Yes, that's right.
Just the 11,000,000 people they SAY they will naturalize is almost as large as the State of Ohio, Our seventh largest state. If they claim 11 million, you can sure bet it is twenty million and that is more people than in New York and almost as many as reside in the State of Texas.
What really chaps my hide about this entire process is that not one of our representatives says the truth. The truth is that each and every illegal alien in this country is a thief. They steal from us every day.
They drive on roads they don't pay for. They pout their children in schools they force others to pay for, they use our health care system that they don't pay for. They are thieves and they are being rewarded for their theft and WE PAY FOR ALL OF IT!
Well, Tulsa's given itself over to wetbacks and ragheads. This country's finished in another four or five generations.
Most of the 33 million will go on welfare.
Many will go on Welfare and many will be working for the Drug Cartels and also drawing on Welfare.
The United States will be considered a Third World country by 2050.
But it won't matter because every country will be the same.
Yes, I believe the numbers are underestimates. And without securing the border, once the law passes the influx will be incalculable. Probably the equivalent of 2-3 new states added. Millions of new voters for the dems, millions of new low wage workers for the pubs, and untold trillions for the taxpayers to subsidize. What's not to love? /sarc
correction —...NO! to path to citizenship and NO! to anything that does NOT have border enforcement before anything else.
I am unwilling to entertain any sort of immigration bill that does not start with demonstrated enforcement and a big wall along the border where it is practicable.
They think Barrys CommieCare is in trouble now, wait until 33 million foreigners are added to the list. LOL!
Repeat after me...
"We have to vote for the Republican no matter what because they are better than the Democrats."
This is the result of the above stupidity.
33 million more? And WHO did you say plans to feed them? Where will the additional welfare come from? Unemployment is at a major high, there are no jobs here in the U.S. No jobs, no tax money to fund their care.
Amazing how stupid our gubmint really is.
And new gun bill pushed will lessen the time an illegal can aquire a fire arm
Liberals despise companies that outsource their labor to other nations.
Yet, liberals have no problem outsourcing US jobs to criminal border-crossers who have no desire to become American citizens.
Most of the illegal aliens are like locusts, traveling to the country that turns a blind eye to them while they consume everything in sight.....jobs, healthcare, education, etc.
Once this nation is consumed, they will move on to the next opportunity.
Seriously, governors of border states should give these immigrants what they want.
They should impose mexican laws, and give the states to Mexicans.
The Americans will cry in horror and throw them out.
11 million is lower than the 12 million estimate that they have been using since 1998 or so.
It's more like 30-45 million
Maybe they have thought it through and this is the outcome they want because they are a combination of bought and paid for crooks, view themselves as the ruling elites who will be served by the teaming masses, or old fashioned American haters who want to bring down the country.

Subject: Rebuttal mexico
(1) When is the treatment of American citizens in Mexico and their rights vs US treatment of Mexicans going to be an issue when we discuss amnesty ? And two other questions US legislators should ask
Here are three questions:that has yet to appear on any US legislator's questionaire from either chamber
Issue One
!...Should Mexican citizens when in the US be given the same rights American citizens are given while in Mexico? .......Americans entering Mexico illegally get shipped back post haste
2.. The Mexican government through public statements and educational system lays claims to major portions or all to some of our southwestern states as part of the Mexican nation . Are we asking for trouble by granting their illegals an expressed path to our citizenship laying the groundwork for "squatters rights" at some future date ?
3... If it is deemed necessary to supplement the US labor force by allowing itinerant labor should the individual states make the determiniation as to the number should the offer being needed ? And should that offer not be restricted simply to Mexican nationals but to other central and south American countries as well ?
Issue 2
What makes it necessary for US to subjugate our sovereignty because of available cheap labor ? While the Godless Demo-Coms socialists encourage population control and abortion . Then complain the US is not reproducing enough citizens to replace its aging retiring workforce. But rely on as the Romans did on foreigners (barbarians) .to keep their welfare ponzie schemes supplied with tax money and keep the system working.....
On the Mexican problem
Ever hear of reciprocal aggrements ? These are arranged to protect the rights of American citizens working or living in other countries.
Why is it when it comes to citizens of other countries we are required to offer them the same privledges as we do to US citizens? But when it comes to US citizens who get in trouble or attempt to do business in other countries they do not get the same treatment their citizens get.
Americans cant own coast land in Mexico. And get no title to it elsewhere. If they run out of cash theyll get unceremoniously sent back or put in jail untill some relative comes up with the fresh. Thats just for starters as for granting them voting privledges yea lets give Mexican citizens that right (over other countries from south American tying up their quotas) when American citizens vote in their elections .
I have a great idea. Why don't these people clean up their own countries?
Immigration - citizenship = slavery, FWIW. It's a losing position.
Either no immigration or full citizenship. Taxing without representation will destroy the republic long term.
Didn't die. Was murdered. With malice aforethought.
Not yet! Not yet! Americans still have lots to lose...when the corner is turned and Americans see they no longer have anything to lose but their country, then you'll see folks really speaking their minds.
It's kinda like a guy kneeling over a lil pile of brush attempting to start a fire with two pieces of flint. Just a matter of time when the fire catches.
If we keep fishing from the same ol pond, were gonna keep catchin the same ol big mouth bass.
We gotta change what were doin y'all. There's only a handful of folks in the party who still can be considered conservative constitutionalists.
Time and again the notion of changing the party from the inside utilizing the primary process has failed. Sure, one-zy, two-zy we pick up a good representative, then we lose a couple.
Turncoats like McCain, Graham, Bohner, remain firmly in control. We keep fighting the same battle for the party all the while the socialist gain ground little by little until...now.
Third party seems to always be foo foo'd. Any thoughts?
Slavery is not voluntary. Illegal aliens were not forced to come or stay here. They can always leave any time they want to leave. If people want to immigrate here, they must respect our laws. If they want to work here without becoming a citizen, they need a work visa. Giving amnesty to 30-50 million people who were formerly illegal aliens or immediate family members of illegal aliens will be catastrophic to the long term health of our republic.
Jailed jihad terrorists to be set free in weeks
By Tom Whitehead, Security Editor
10:00PM BST 26 Apr 2013
Four members of the group, who travelled to Pakistan for training in terrorism, will be free within three months after being jailed for 40 months.
The 11-strong al-Qaeda inspired gang from Birmingham wanted to use eight suicide bombers in attacks that could have left thousands dead
Perhaps Obama will make it the 58th state?
Ya mean like this?
That wall is in Israel. They know how to do it right.
Was listening to Graham lie through his teeth to Hannity on the radio yesterday. Hannity was too busy kissing his ass to ask any serious questions about it.
I agree, which is why you deport them. There is a path to citizenship. There doesn't need to be another.
Letting them stay and sanctioning it just so long as there is no path to citizenship is foolish.
Well, perhaps so.
But I was thinking more in a philosophical sense, as in, they swore to God they would protect and defend the Constitution and this doesn't fit that model.
Lisa Douglas isn't a good analogy, then; she's not a villain.
Eddie Haskell, then, but he's too smart.
After they're here, where are their jobs and health care supposed to come from?

The ASICS Core Singlet is a simple singlet that performs well and fits nicely. The no-frills, no-whistles design makes this little number ideal for warmer weather training and racing.
Comments: This came up when I filtered by red tanks, but it's definitely pink, not red.
From: Anonymous. April 26th 2014
Comments: Love this shirt. It fits close enough to the body without being tight. Never once during my 8 mile run did I have to pull this shirt back into place. Great depth on the arm hold, no rubbing under the arms and the racer back gave me plenty of room. The scoop of the neck is not to high or to low. Recommend giving this shirt a try. Worked great for the humid warm weather in Savannah, Ga.

I love the tingling feeling it has when I use it in the shower, I'm not sure why it seems to be more noticeable in there! But this is the best cleaner out there, I'd say.
Comments about dermal clay cleanser:
As a middle aged adult, with both sensitive/combination skin (T-zone), who is prone to occasional break outs Dermalogica's Clay Cleanser is just right for me. It thoroughly cleanses my faces, reduces "shine" from excess oils for a good part of the day & doesn't promote acne breakouts!! As a middle aged man, THIS is one of my go to Dermalogica products.
This cleanser has been very effective on my oily skin. The cooling sensation is a bonus in the mornings, especially when I get out of a Hot shower!!
I got a sample of this product originally and instantly liked it. The cooling effect that the product has really makes my face feel clean. I also find that it has helped my oily skin.
The Dermal Clay Cleanser is great for oily skin. I like to use it during the summer months, along with the Special Cleansing Gel. I find it works especially well on hot summer days when having oily skin is most problematic.
I have oily skin with large pores within my T-Zone. I can have occasional breakouts. This is the best cleanser I have used and could not use anything else. I use this cleanser in the morning to combat my oily skin and to help with my redness. I also like to use this cleanser as a mask to really pull out any gunk that is within my skin. It also has a nice tingling feel to it.
I am a 26 year old Latino with some acne breakouts here and there but what bothers me most is my oily skin, blackheads, and the hyperpigmentation of my skin. It's just not smooth or clear. I started using the clay dermal cleanser a little over a week and I love it and I can already see the results. Issue the cleanser twice a day, morning and night and night (along with Pure light moisturizer) and my skin is already evening out and it's only been a week. The cleanser is nice and refreshing and doesn't dry out my skin. I would recommend it for sure!
This is an awesome cleanser! It leaves your skin feeling fresh and clean!
I use this cleanser in the morning to clear up my combination skin that suffer from hormonal acne. This cleanser has worked really well at not drying out my skin but still creating a matte look when dried. I really like this product and it removes makeup easily as well. I use this along with the skin smoothing cream and am loving the results!
I use this product every morning and night as part of my skin care regimen! I suffer from oily skin and this wash absorbs my oils and leaves my face clean and matte. I will never use anything else again! At 30 years old I was still getting zits. No more!

Q:Does the dermal clay cleanser cause drying for combination skin?: Hi, I have combination skin. I really want a cleanser that works on reducing pore size. But, keeping my skin hydrated is also something that I have to be on top of. Would the dermal clay cleanser be right for combination skin, or would it cause too much drying? Thanks so much!

YakovMironov's Leaflets: April 18th - Just say "No-Zak"
Jon Steitzer
April 18 2013 10:38AM
Leaflets is a weekly rundown of thoughts and notes on the Leafs by Jon Steitzer that will usually appear on Thursdays. Follow him on Twitter @YakovMironov
Darren Dreger stated yesterday that Tyler Bozak is seeking five million dollars a season. A player who is a disappointment at $1.5 million wants more? In the NHL this seems right, but I'd hope this is enough to finally punch his ticket out of town. Rather than go into the comparables (SkinnyPPPhish has done that here) or into how Bozak isn't very good (Hockey Analysis has that here) I'd like to focus on the alternatives to not bringing Bozak back.
First consider who is available and what their price and term would be relative to Bozak's potential $5 million.
2012-13 Cap Hit
Ribeiro, Mike
McDonald, Andy
Roy, Derek
Zubrus, Dainius
Weiss, Stephen
None of these names are exciting, and all of these players are older (and in some cases significantly older) than Bozak, but without argument they are all more capable a filling in a top six role than Bozak and it's likely that only Weiss and Ribeiro could also be in that $5m range that Bozak is seeking.
-Ribeiro is a much more dynamic playmaker, he adds speed, and if we're framing him in a positive light, he draws a lot of penalties.
-Andy McDonald is older, injury prone and will essentially see the lineup as much Connolly did last year, but he has some familiarity with Carlyle and has thrived as an offensive catalyst in defense first systems.
-Derek Roy has been on a decline in the past two seasons and may not offer any significant upgrade over Bozak, while I'd prefer taking a short term flyer on Roy over committing to Bozak it's hard to imagine that he'd be considered.
-Dainius Zubrus is the most intriguing name on the list, not so much for his actual ability, but because he is the option to add some size to the top six that the Leafs have prioritized for so long. He's likely one of the cheaper options as well, and could be a cap casualty if Clarkson re-signs in New Jersey.
-Stephen Weiss is potentially the favourite on this list since there's some belief that he'd be capable of so much more if he ever had a chance to play outside of Florida. He has a somewhat scary injury history, but the fact that he's a true number one center with a few years left, and his two way abilities would compliment what the Leafs already have in the system makes him a favourite alternative.
Speaking of alternatives that make sense, what's the harm of letting Bozak walk without replacement? Both Grabovski and Kadri are more talented than him; McClement is capable of holding down the third line, and Colborne and other Marlies depth can fill the need on the fourth line. Don Cherry might even get his wish and see the return of Mike Zigomanis.
There are very few reasons to consider Bozak for anything more than $2.5 million a season, but I still have no confidence that the Maple Leafs organization sees it the same way. There seems to be some level of fear that Phil Kessel is not adult enough to be able to play hockey without his bestie.
If that is the case, consider this. Phil Kessel could make between $7-8m a season after next year. If you are also paying Bozak $5m (about $3m over his true value) you are essentially paying Kessel $10-11m a season. While I think Kessel is a fantastic hockey player I'm of the opinion that too much has been paid to one player in that situation. It's better to let Bozak walk this summer and proceed with Kessel from there.
It's up for debate whether or not Lupul returning on Tuesday night was the right decision as Lupul continues to recover from a concussion. While the organization has a history of players returning early, and not being transparent about the extent of injuries, this seems to be as much on the player as the team.
What we with Lupul's return was the knowledge that is ready and willing to play. What we saw was that he is not performing at the same level as when he left, albeit this was blurred significantly by the across the board poor play of the Leafs in Washington.
With Lupul being as fragile as he is, and the significance of his injury I'd hope the Leafs choose to limit him the upcoming games, the same way I'd hope the same for Reimer. The Leafs will find the points they need to clinch a playoff berth in the upcoming games, and it shouldn't come at the cost of injury of players necessary for playoff success.
Carl Gunnarsson seems to be temporarily shutdown, and this is a good decision as it is allowing Gardiner to play a significant role alongside Phaneuf, with Reimer sitting Scrivens will not be completely rusty if needed in the playoffs, so why not keep Lupul out and use it as an opportunity to find Frattin or Colborne 15+ minutes of top six ice time a night?
When the NHL introduced something as universally well received as the Winter Classic I think we all knew it was only a matter of time before they found a way to completely destroy it.
Enter the Stadium Series.
I mean if the Winter Classic is special, than the Stadium Series will be six times more special, right?
From a fans point of view, attending these events is strictly about saying you were there for something that was considered a rare treat for your team. You can't see the ice, you're overpaying for your ticket, and (with the exception of the LA game) you will be freezing your ass off while having copious amounts of limited availability merchandise flung in your face. Sounds like a blast.
As a one off event this was something special for TV. It was an honour that your team was chosen, the 24/7 build up generated additional hype and gave incredible personal insight into your team, and now we have a product that has been watered down to the extent that it features a Canucks/Senators matchup. HOT RIVALRY ALERT!
Jokes about the hideousness of the Canucks Heritage Classic jerseys aside, what the fuck is the league doing? My cynical nature believes this is an attempt to generate revenue that may be lost from the lack of an All-Star game next season and a means to cover off any revenue losses that could occur from the Olympic shutdown. I'm sure what they'll find is that Canadians and national coverage of a Rangers/Devils game outside won't get much attention after fans have already sat through three previous outdoor games this season. I'd expect these games will not have ratings on par with the single Winter Classic game (around 2 million viewers in the US) and instead will have viewership similar to the Heritage Classic had in the US (around 600k).
The seems to be some momentum gaining for the idea of Dion Phaneuf being a Norris candidate, and frankly I think Michael Stephens at MLHS has made a pretty solid case for it (he used fancy stats), but I can't help but think the case for Dion will never creep into the mainstream.
The fact of the matter is when it comes to awards there seems to be a blind spot around Toronto. The same media who talk about what a terrible team is in front of James Reimer won't connect the dots for his Vezina Consideration.
After years of articles written about how awful the Leafs penalty kill is I doubt Jay McClement will receive more than one or two votes for the Selke.
Phaneuf falls into this same group, he unfortunately he's too far behind Subban in the defensive scoring race, Letang's point per game pace is too impressive, and then there's the disengaged voter who wrote down Weber or Chara on their ballot before the season even started.
The name I've purposely avoided mentioning until now is Ryan Suter, a player I legitimately can see winning the Norris, and for the right reasons. Like Phaneuf he has provided a strong offensive contribution (he's ahead of Phaneuf), he's played in front of goaltender who is good, but not regarded as one of the best (though at least Backstrom is getting some Vezina considerations), he's part of a team that very few expected to make the playoffs [ed note--depending on who you talked to] and he's essentially doing all the heavy lifting on the blueline.
It's amazing that so many have seen the case for Suter, but are blind to the same qualities in Phaneuf. Maybe it's because the worst parts of the Maple Leafs fan base still can't see his value and at times have felt the need to call in to sports radio stations calling for him to be scratched or bought out. No matter what the reasoning it certainly seems that people are watching hockey wrong.
Great piece. I think we're on the same page.
I always thought Bozak would be better suited as a 3rd line checker but he can at the very least be a fill in if the top 2 centres get injured. Good shorthanded and on the draw. Obviously he's not going to be happy to re-sign at 3, which is the max I'd give him.
I hate when teams bring players back the second they feel better after concussions. It's pointless for a guy that's signed for the next 5 years - perhaps protect your investment. Give him the final 3 games of the regular season to get ready for the playoffs.
Phaneuf will never beeen seen as a Norris candidate until he wins the defensive scoring race. Everyone is too caught up in pointing out his mistakes than to see the big picture. I'm not here to say he's perfect, and sometimes I'm ready to lose it when I see some of his oblivious defensive plays, but if you watch Karlsson, Letang or Subban (guys everyone is quick to give the Norris to) they make countless gaffs. You're absolutely right, "people are watching hockey wrong".
Re. Phanuef vs Suter, the way I see it Suter is carrying Brodin. Phaneuf has never shown himself able to carry anyone be it Holzer, Kostka, Gardiner. And Gunnarson holds his own as a defender. In that sense, I agree with those that feel Suter is a better dman because he makes young rookie players around him (Brodin) better. This is something that Phaneuf has never shown he is capable of and for me is what limits him being an elite defensive talent.
Ribeiro interests me. I like his mojo, and clearly the guy can set up scorers. He would be an upgrade on Bozak, I don't think you can argue that.
But he is also looking for a long term deal which is where it might get tricky. He already publicly stated he wants some stability for his family. Is it logical that he will be looking for a 4 year deal with a limited no trade clause? I don't know that Toronto would make that kind of commitment. I feel like Nonis is more patient than that and would rather wait for a trade possibility further down the road.

Hmm... Jonas Brodin was a 10th overall pick.
Korbinian Holzer was six and a half years into his pro career before he played a regular NHL shift. Mike Kostka went undrafted and is a career minor-leaguer.
Jake Gardiner and Dion Phaneuf have been nails lately.
Do you even WATCH the games???
The fact I dont care for any stats and still say with the shortened season its hard not to look at Phaneuf as possibly in running for Norris. People really dont know much about hockey when saying he's not. Total iron horse and this year it actually shows on the score card in point production and in the win column for the leafs. People really need to give credit where its due. Leafs are 3rd in Penalty Kill he is a BIG part of it. Not much else to say.
Nice article.

FGD: A Wild Rubber Match
Ryan Pike
February 26 2013 02:08PM
For the third time this season (already) the Calgary Flames tangle with the Minnesota Wild. The Flames lost to the Wild in typical 2-1 (shootout) fashion a few weeks back, then somehow managed to avoid another shootout on Saturday and won by a 3-1 score.
With three out of a possible four points against their division rivals, the Flames look to get closer to a playoff spot tonight with their first trip this season to the Land of 10,000 Lakes. Your local hockey heroes enter the evening three points out of eighth in the West, but can get to within one with a win – eighth place Dallas is playing lowly Columbus tonight, but Los Angeles is idle and both teams have the same number of points. More importantly, the Flames can get above the .500 mark for the first time under new head coach Bob Hartley. That would be tres bien, doncha think?
Game-time is 6pm on Sportsnet West and Sportsnet 960 The Fan. Depending on how you experience the game, Rob Kerr and/or Peter Maher has the call.
The Flames did the near-impossible this past weekend, winning two games in a row and doing it on back-to-back nights, no less. It's the first time they've done this since December 22 and 23 of 2011. Joey MacDonald has been great and leads the team in wins by a goaltender (with 3! and Jarome Iginla seems to have found his goal-scoring touch again. Hopefully the Flames can keep this momentum going.
Defenseman Jay Bouwmeester makes history tonight, as he passes former Flames coach Guy Charron to become the NHL player who's played the most regular season games without ever playing in the playoffs (at 735 contests).
I'd expect the lines to be the same as Sunday, so expect something like this based on reports from Sportsnet's Roger Millions from this morning's practice in Minny:
- Tanguay – Stajan – Iginla
- Glencross – Cammalleri - Stempniak
- Baertschi – Comeau - Hudler
- Cervenka – Begin – Jackman
- Giordano – Bouwmeester
- Brodie – Wideman
- Smith – Butler
- MacDonald
Cervenka had an assist on Sunday but barely played after the first period. The team is reportedly still monitoring his conditioning and he played on the fourth line. If a line shuffle occurs during the game, expect the most likely scenario to be a swap between Cervenka and Sven Baertschi, and for Hudler to play centre on that line.
Akim Aliu is day-to-day with an unspecified malady, while Anton Babchuk and Cory Sarich are health scratches once more. According to reports from practice (via Pat Steinberg) yesterday, Miikka Kiprusoff was on the ice with the team. I'd reckon he's about a week out, or slightly more. The Flames remain without Mikael Backlund (MCL) and Paul Byron (hand), as well.
With a two-point performance, Jarome Iginla can tie Theoren Fleury in the NHL's all-time scoring leaderboard. Fleury had 1,088 points with Calgary, Colorado, New York and Chicago. To-date, Iginla has 1,086 points, all with the Flames.
The Wild have been idle since Saturday's loss in Calgary. Including tonight, they play five times in their next eight days. Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star Tribune (@russotrib) reports that the Wild will be scratching Zenon Konopka and Nate Prosser, and should also be without Cal Clutterbuck once again as he recovers from a thigh contusion suffered at the hand (well, knee) of Edmonton's Taylor Hall.
Lines should be roughly:
- Parise – Koivu – Coyle
- Zucker – Cullen – Setoguchi
- Bouchard – Brodziak – Heatley
- Rupp – Granlund – Mitchell
- Suter – Brodin
- Gilbert – Stoner
- Falk – Spurgeon
- Backstrom
Heatley was largely ineffective on Saturday and was actually demoted to the third line when coach Mike Yeo shuffled things up in the third period. Interesting that Coyle, a rookie, takes Heatley's spot on the top line.
How many times last season did the Flames get "close" to a playoff spot but then fail to capitalize? I count roughly seven. But with their shaky start behind them and arguably getting their best, most consistent goaltending of the shortened season, the Flames have a great opportunity ahead of them tonight.
And with the season so shortened and the clock ticking, it may be the only opportunity they get.

Sad trombone. Another 4th line scores on the Flames 1st line.
*sad trombone*
February 26 2013, 08:52PM
Wow, suddenly more effort from Flames...wonder why?
And now we lose in the shoot out.
February 26 2013, 08:53PM
Wow, now the Flames are fired up...wonder why?
February 26 2013, 08:54PM
And now we lose in the shoot out.
You could be right, grainy-picture-from- the-1950s guy!

Oh Gio....
solid pentalty. Kerr called it a mile it way. here we go. maybe its time for a shorty?

Shazbot. JOR-dano with the weird-ass penalty.
Hey watch the language lol!

Nice save. Surprised Spurgeon didn't put any height on that shot.
yuppers. Coach can't be too happy with this effort. Hats off MacD though.
February 26 2013, 09:03PM
Flames the one-point wonders!
February 26 2013, 09:04PM
February 26 2013, 09:04PM
Chances were 25-13 Wild, so the Flames are fortunate to even get the point.
February 26 2013, 09:07PM
"Not winnin' for MacKinnon"
By all measures, this should have been Minnesota's game. The Flames are just too complacent with getting garbage goals and then hoping the other team can't score. They can, and they will.
MacDonald barely held this team in it. One or two of those missed/post shots goes in, everybody crucifies him. He's not that good. TO and DET didn't want him, so why should we?
Where's the captain tonight? Where's Wideman? Gio shouldn't have taken that penalty at the end, he knows better. Totally negates him saving the puck earlier in the game.
Not good. Win or lose, this team is just not good.
February 26 2013, 09:08PM
Talk to you guys later.
February 26 2013, 09:08PM
Guess I missed what the actual penalty was. Yahoo is saying the penalty was an "illegal play by goaltender". In which case, I'd like to flip a big middle finger to Joey MacRebounds'R'Us.
February 26 2013, 09:09PM
Take the solo point and call that a win (and then bag skate them for the PP performance).
Not impressed with Gio at all this yr. so we have the lead for all but 4 minutes? Come on ladies, pull up your skirts for hell sakes! Bad penalty Gio!!!!! Another wasted game!
Let me guess..... Sven got nothing for ice time? I'm at work so didn't see it. Just assuming. We are sooooo boring to watch!
February 26 2013, 09:16PM
Disgusting powerplay for the Flames. Not a single shot on the 5 minute major, and just 1 on the double minor. When you can't even get shots during your PP, what hope do you have of generating scoring chances at even strength?
February 26 2013, 09:17PM
9 minutes of PP TIME AND ONE OR TWO SHOTS IS A COMPLETE FAILURE. This is where good teams put the hammer down and finish the job. Hartley must be exasperated watching that display of utter ineptitude.
same ol', same ol'
February 26 2013, 09:56PM
Didnt Giordano get called for that a few games ago? Slow learner.
No, this is the first time Giordano has been called for this lame ass "delay of game" call. It is the third time in three games that the Flames have been called for it though, Cammalleri last game off of the faceoff against Phoenix and Wideman against Minnesota at the Dome. Zero shots on the 5 minute PP and 2 shots on the 4 minute, 2 shots and no sustained pressure, they couldn't even get set up! MacDonald played unbeleiveable, (with some lucky bounces), but he salvaged at least 1 point with that nice right pad save, late in the 3rd. Yes Giordano did take that lame delay of game penalty late in the 3rd, but he also prevented a goal in the 1st when he swept the puck off of the goal line, he doesn't do that, Calgary loses in regulation and it is zero instead of 1.
