TK2 On Saturday: Sudsakorn, Thomas Adamandopoulos In Action
- Written by Rian Scalia
This weekend alone is pretty stacked, with quite a few other events besides GLORY's big card in Brussels taking place. One card in particular is TK2 World MAX 2012, which takes place in Marseilles, France on this Saturday, October 6. The card features the likes of Sudsakorn Sor Klinmee and Thomas Adamandopoulos, as well as some good French fighters and a four man tournament.
The main attraction is local fighter Cedric Castagna taking on Sudsakorn Sor Klinmee. Castagna comes from a full contact background and even though he's one of the local attractions, he probably isn't going to beat Sudsakorn. Castagna was actually originally scheduled to fight Giorgio Petrosyan of all people.
Right under Castagna and Sudsakorn is Thomas Adamandopoulos, our #6 ranked lightweight. He fights Cyril Abbas, another local fighter with a full contact background, although this fight should be more competitive than Sudsakorn vs. Castagna. Abbas had a K-1 rules fight in preparation for this one, but Adamandopoulos is still the likely winner.
Another fight in the same weight category as Adamandopoulos and Abbas is a very interesting fight, as Modibo Diarra and Cedric Peynaud face off. Both fighters have been stopped by Adamandopoulos in the past, Peynaud in late 2010 and Diarra in mid 2011 in full contact. Both however have gotten better, particularly Diarra who has racked up a lot of wins since that loss to Adamandopoulos. The winner of this fight in my opinion jumps up to the level where they could possibly compete with some of France's best at this weight.
There's also a four man tournament at 72kg with Jeremy Ragazzacci and Mohamed Diaby of France, along with Faycal El Hammoutti of Belgium and Kyle Stewart of Scotland.

Jacksonville is a tremendous place to live, you know that. With natural resources like the river, world class golf courses, tremendous museums and of course our beaches, we might be the best kept secret in Florida. We also have wonderful traditions in our town to lift our spirits each year and remind us again that it's great to live here.
One of these traditions is our annual Fourth of July fireworks display. At a time when so much of what we know is riddled with uncertainty, it's the perfect time to reacquaint ourselves with downtown and celebrate a wonderful tradition.
Channel 4 is proud this year to again provide unprecedented coverage of the annual July 4th celebration. Our live 2-hour special program, Jacksonville?s Fireworks Spectacular, from the river on July 4th starts at 8:00pm. We'll of course bring you live coverage of the fireworks, but also salute our military, and tell you about what's new in downtown Jacksonville -- new jobs and places your family can enjoy. There are a lot of fireworks shows on TV this weekend. There is only one place you can see the fireworks where you live. Make an appointment to join The Local Station Monday, July 4th to celebrate.

An overview of our Secure Boot implementation
I've written rather a lot about how we're implementing our Secure Boot support, but there's been a range of subtle changes over time. Here's an overview of how it all fits together.
Secure Boot and signingSecure Boot is part of the UEFI specification. When enabled, systems will refuse to boot any UEFI executables (such as an OS bootloader) unless they've been signed by a trusted key. The only trusted key effectively guaranteed to be present is Microsoft's, and Microsoft will sign binaries if you have access to the Windows hardware dev center. You gain access to this by purchasing a certificate from Verisign that verifies your identity and then use that to create a developer account at the Sysdev website. Once you've agreed to the legal contracts, you can submit a UEFI executable and Microsoft will then send you back a signed one. The signature is added to the end of the binary, so it's trivial to verify that your executable hasn't otherwise been modified in the process.
Avoiding signing round tripsWe didn't want to have to get binaries re-signed every time we updated our bootloader or kernel, so we came up with a compromise approach. We implemented a shim bootloader (cunningly called "Shim") which is signed by Microsoft and includes a copy of a public key that's under our control. Shim will launch any binary signed with either a key installed in the system firmware or the public key built into it. This allows us to build and sign all other binaries ourselves.
Preventing Secure Boot circumventionSecure Boot is intended to prevent scenarios where untrusted code can be run before an OS kernel. Locking down the boot environment avoids the simple case of using a modified bootloader, and requiring that the kernel also be signed avoids simply booting arbitrary attack code that looks roughly like a kernel but does nothing to prevent the more complex case of using a running kernel to launch another kernel. To do that we've had to restrict the behaviour of the kernel in Secure Boot environments. Direct hardware access from userspace has been blocked, and modules must be signed by a key the kernel trusts.
Providing user control over trustMicrosoft requires that it be possible to modify the key database on all Windows-certified x86 systems, but the UI to do so may be inconsistent and awkward. Suse developed a plan to avoid this, involving adding an additional key database to the system. The user enrols a key from the running OS and enters a password. On the next reboot, shim detects that a key is awaiting enrolment and drops to a prompt. If the user does nothing or just hits enter, the system continues to boot. If the user chooses to enrol a new key, the user is asked to re-enter the password in order to confirm that they're the same user that initiated the original request. If successful, the key is then copied into a boot services variable which cannot be directly modified from the OS. Anything signed with the user's key will then be trusted.
Providing user control over signature verificationSome users (such as kernel developers) may be hampered by Secure Boot - forcing them to sign every new kernel they build is time consuming and unhelpful. Windows-certified x86 hardware will be required to provide an option to disable Secure Boot, but again that UI may be inconsistent. We've added an option where a user can generate a request to disable signature validation, again requiring a password. On next boot the user must explicitly choose the "Toggle signature validation" menu item and will then be requested to enter three randomly chosen characters from their password. After confirmation, signature validation in Shim will then be disabled.
Supporting other distributionsNot all distributions will want (or be able) to sign via Microsoft. They'll be able to take any other signed version of Shim and put it on their boot media. If their second stage bootloader is signed by a key that Shim doesn't trust, Shim will pop up a menu permitting the user to choose to enrol a new key off the install media. The user can select this, navigate a file browser and select the key. After confirmation, the key will be added to Shim's trusted key list. The user can then install the distribution.
Third party modulesThere's two approaches here. The first is for the third party to provide a module key that the user can install into Shim's database. The kernel will import this at boot time and trust any modules signed with it. The second is for the third party to provide a key signed by Microsoft. David Howells has come up with with the idea of utilising this approach of embedding a public key in a pe binary, with the kernel then having support for importing this key, noticing that it's signed by a trusted key and adding it to the kernel keyring.
How about ARM?We're not planning on supporting Secure Boot on ARM, for two reasons. The first is that Microsoft require that it be impossible to disable Secure Boot on ARM, and we don't want to support systems unless it's guaranteed that the user will be able to run what they want. The second is that there's no strong expectation that the signing key used for signing third party UEFI binaries will be present on ARM systems.
What are other distributions doing?As far as I know, Suse and Fedora will be shipping the same code. Ubuntu is shipping an older version of Shim but should pick up the local key management code in the next release. The only significant difference is that Ubuntu doesn't require that kernel modules be signed.

"In the U.S., people spend almost 20% of the gross domestic product on health care, compared with about half that in most developed countries. Yet in every measurable way, the results our health care system produces are no better and often worse than the outcomes in those countries."
"If you could figure out a way to pay doctors better and separately fund research … adequately, I could see where a single-payer approach would be the most logical solution," says Gunn, Sloan-Kettering's chief operating officer. "It would certainly be a lot more efficient than hospitals like ours having hundreds of people sitting around filling out dozens of different kinds of bills for dozens of insurance companies." Maybe, but the prospect of overhauling our system this way, displacing all the private insurers and other infrastructure after all these decades, isn't likely. For there would be one group of losers — and these losers have lots of clout. They're the health care providers like hospitals and CT-scan-equipment makers whose profits — embedded in the bills we have examined — would be sacrificed. They would suffer because of the lower prices Medicare would pay them when the patient is 64, compared with what they are able to charge when that patient is either covered by private insurance or has no insurance at all.
That kind of systemic overhaul not only seems unrealistic but is also packed with all kinds of risk related to the microproblems of execution and the macro issue of giving government all that power.

Princeton to serve as home for new student leadership institute
Posted June 2, 2005; 01:34 p.m.
Princeton University will be the home this summer for a new program
intended to develop the leadership potential of promising high school
students from racial, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds that are
underrepresented in the national leadership pool.
Leadership Enterprise for a Diverse America's LEDA Scholars Program will launch its Aspects of Leadership Summer Institute on the campus between June 18 and Aug. 14.
Fifty-four students who will be high school seniors this fall will take classes and participate in other activities intended to help prepare them for enrollment in selective colleges and universities.
Leadership Enterprise for a Diverse America was founded by Gary Simons, who also started the renowned Prep for Prep program in New York City in 1978. Prep for Prep was designed to develop the leadership potential of underrepresented students in New York City.
The new organization has two programs: the LEDA College-Bound Community, which focuses on New York City high school sophomores; and the LEDA Scholars Program, which targets rising seniors from small-town and rural high schools.
Princeton President Shirley M. Tilghman serves on the LEDA board of trustees. "In keeping with Princeton's efforts to broaden access to higher education, we are delighted to welcome the Aspects of Leadership Summer Institute to our campus," she said. "This is a critical component of the LEDA Scholars Program, which will give talented but disadvantaged high school students from across America a unique opportunity to develop the skills and confidence they need to realize their potential and, one day, help guide our nation in ways that serve the common good."
In addition to serving as the home for the program, the University is helping to provide some of the staff. Graduate students Ethan Schoolman and Shana Kushner will be two of the four facilitators, leading the classes in the curriculum. According to Lance Fialkoff, director of the LEDA Scholars Program, the graduate students are experienced assistants in instruction and "really stood out as strong teachers."
Six Princeton undergraduate students will be working as residential coordinators: Steven Brown, Lubna Malik, Danielle Hamilton, Darnell Motley, Stephanie Okonkwo and Cynthia Akatugba. Serving as an assistant director of residential life will be Awilda Rodriguez, a 2003 Princeton graduate who works as a talent search officer for LEDA during the academic year.
From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, the high school students will be enrolled in the rigorous Aspects of Leadership curriculum, which involves discussions based on reading assignments, role-playing and group activities. They will develop their writing and analytical skills in preparation for college-level work through frequent writing assignments. The group will be using various classrooms and computer clusters around the campus.
To balance the academic work, there will be Saturday trips to local and New York metropolitan area attractions. Fialkoff said the group hopes to take advantage of Princeton resources, such as the University Art Museum, recreational facilities and summer programs with offerings open to neighbors. "We will try to have students benefit from all the wonderful things that are around the campus," he said. "We'd like to become an active part of the community as much as we can."
Following the summer program, LEDA staff members will stay in close contact with the students, guiding them through the college application process.

I just saw Man of Steel. It was like watching Jesus, Dragonball Z, and Superman all at once. I don't know whether that was good or bad. I will say that Lois Lane must have superpowers of her own given what she did while she was next to the gravity beam. My only real complaint was that crammed too much story at once and they introduced the romance between Superman and Lois way too soon. Grade: B+.
I need to see:
- Elysium
- 300
- Wolverine
- Pacific Rim.
There were a couple of others that caught my eye but I forgot the names.

Yesterday, Mrs. TI7 and I spent the evening with Wayne Sayles the author of my uncle's biography....FINALLY!
Here's a little info on that which can be found in the "Reading" section of SSG: http://www.sirstevesguide.com/forums...72&postcount=1
We were treated to a wonderful dinner, and then Mr. Sayles conducted a video interview with me about my family with regard to my uncle. AND....he was generous enough to bring my uncle's West Point ring for me to see!
He is compiling information not just on my uncle, but material on the 416th Bomb Group to be used in a project of his later. (The Military Channel recently had a show Great Planes on the A-26 Invader that featured a lot of film footage on the 416th)
All in all, a very exhilarating, surreal, and emotional experience for me!
In case anyone is interested in Mr. Sayles' journey finding out about my uncle (and which ultimately led his efforts to me), or just has interest in WWII in general, here is the site of his blog:

Scoot was nice enough to run some kee kee's and some kee kee runs for us again on his pot call.
Kee Kee...A kee kee can be run very easy if you make sure you, DON'T CHANGE THE ANGLE OF YOUR STRIKER as you go through the motions. If you change it the call will start to break over like a yelp. You have to pinch your striker as tightly as you can to kill as much of the vibrations in it. You don't have to put a lot of pressure down with the striker either just like you would normally run your call. A lot of people say to play it near the edge of the surface, no need, play it right where you would play a yelp.
Kee Kee Run...Ran the same as a kee kee except as you get done with your last kee kee release your pinch pressure on your striker and let it vibrate in your fingers. You can go right into a yelp at the end of your last kee kee.
Both of these calls work very well in the early and later seasons in spring. Early seasons when the Toms aren't answering hen calls they will come and check you out because some jakes still kee kee, and they are all pent up ready to breed and the hens aren't ready yet, so the dominance factor kicks in. It also works well for a run n gun or locater call, both Toms and Hens will answer it and let you know where they are so you can set up and start calling.

Happy 'Bloody' Birthday, Behind the Couch
Thanks so much to everyone who has swung by over the last year. There were quite a few great films watched and reviewed, the usual plethora of bad films, and of course, absolutely fucking ridiculous films. Natch. This year I also rejoiced (sort of) at the return of John Carpenter to our screens, pondered the sickening excesses of the films of Lucio Fulci and celebrated the centenary of none other than the patron saint of Behind the Couch, Mr Vincent Price. Huzzah! There was also a Halloween movie marathon and the usual contemplation of all things gialli and trashy. Fun times.
Away from the blog, I've continued to contribute to the likes of the really rather awesome Paracinema- including a new monthly feature on their website looking at music in cult cinema – and the brand-spanking new indie publication Exquisite Terror.
Shameless DVD release of The Strange Vice of Mrs Wardh. Exciting stuff, eh? The interview was called Thrills, Chills and Cleavage, and according to Shameless, was an apt title for a mini-doc about the filmmaker. You can read the article here.
Here's to the next year of writing about horror movies! May it be as wine drenched, bloody and as good as this one!

Thanks to a 3rd cousin in Wayne Co. who owns 800 acres, I had a really good turkey hunt over a 5 day period. Opening morning was raining pretty hard, but I was dry as could be. I was in an elevated blind I would normally associate with deer hunting. The top was corrugated tin roof, so needless to say, with the rain banging on the roof, and leaves of the trees, it was really noisy. As I sat there, I really doubted, that I would be able to hear a gobble, should some silly tom decide to do so, in such bad weather. I mean, if it was me, I'd stick my ole head back up under my wing and go back to sleep!
Well, I never heard a pre-dawn gobble, so a little after dawn, I laid into the loudest possible box calling I could muster up, with one of my DEACON box calls made from Osage Orange with a Purple Heart striker. Just for good measure, I added a loud ole cuttin' hen mouth call. I remember thinking, "Man, this is crazy!", but it was raing to darn hard to even think about walkin' off the hill. So I continued to practice the art of symphonic calling.
After about three, five minute sessions of that nonsense, I figured it was time for a nap. So I let rip with one more ear piercing set of yelps from the box call,just in case.Before the second yelp was in the wind , a big ole tom gobbler cut me off not more than 10 yards away to my rear. That crazy ole' Turk went into full strut,and strutted right underneath my stand, right between the locust poles used as uprights, and straight up to my full strut decoy! The next thing ya know, KA-BOOM!!! Yep, the ole' Hoosier Hunter was walking down that hill in the rain after all...,24lbs heavier than I went up.
It just goes to show that sometimes," It's better to be lucky, than good!"
I really would like to post the pic of the bird, but I don't know how to shrink or compress the pic, as it is to big as it is now. If someone could explain the process I'd be greatly appreciative, and so would my ego.
OK you mountaineers, lets here about your spring seasons and your plans for fall.

A Choice
- THE flood of utter change is loosed. A space
- Is ours yet, for its coming to prepare.
- Shall we build dams with cautious, clumsy care,
- Or stand with idle hands and frightened face,
- And so be whirled all broken from our place,
- Or perish with the dams we builded there?
- Or shall we dig a broad, deep channel, where
- Most fields may feel the flood's benign embrace?
- Thus turned 'twill be a calm majestic flood
- Of plenty, peace, and fertilising power,
- Whose banks fresh flowers of love and joy shall deck.
- Oppose it: at the inevitable hour,
- Tumultuous, black with ruin, red with blood,
- 'Twill come—and you shall have no chance but wreck!

|The Quintessential Trout Trout angling is the core of flyfishing worldwide.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
RE:Some NY Trout
Now that's a picture I would love to see - a father and two sons holding a prize brown together on father's day on the river. You are all lucky to have such meaning to the simple holiday called "father's day".
Some NY Trout
Well I've been a bit slow with this report but the work life has interfered with my real reason for existence.
My brother, dad, and I put in a few hours with the rain on Sunday on the Geneganslet creek outside Greene NY with fair success on a variety of dries in the 16 to 12 size. On Monday we hit a couple of the rivers feeding the Mohawk and had similarly fair success with dries - mostly caddis - up to size 10 and bead head prince nymphs.
Mike caught a beautiful, huge, and hook nosed brown at the same spot I caught my very first trout on a fly (not nearly so big but just as beautiful). It took a size 16 tan caddis with a 6x tippet. What a battle, what a fish and it made our day!

Exhibit highlights a decade of Binghamton University photography
A retrospective photography exhibition featuring the work of Binghamton University photographer Evangelos Dousmanis will open with a reception at 4 p.m. Friday, October 8, in the Art Museum. The reception is free and open to the public.
For nearly 10 years, Dousmanis has captured and defined the image of the University, recording the daily life and major events that have marked Binghamton University's milestones. He was hired as the University photographer in January 1995, as Binghamton was preparing to celebrate its 50th anniversary. In the nearly 10 years since he was hired, the campus has seen unprecedented growth, not only in its physical landscape, but also in its academic and research mission, its national stature and its community connections. And Dousmanis has recorded it all.
In recognition of Dousmanis's contributions to shaping the image of Binghamton University, the University Art Museum and the Binghamton Foundation are collaborating on the exhibit and book of his photography. The 96-page hardcover book will include 60 color and 40 black and white photographs.
For more information, call the Binghamton University Alumni Office at 607-777-2431, firstname.lastname@example.com or visit homecoming.binghamton.edu

|Pacific Northwest Sea Run Forum No such thing as rainbow trout, only landlocked steelhead
|Topic Review (Newest First)
RE:Looking forward to Fall Silver
all indications i have heard from the first north of falcon meeting and talking with wdfw biologists is that the ocean quotas this summer will be higher than last summer's. the low wild runs off the oregon coast will be the main factor in how much larger the quotas will be, so we won't get as large of quotas as one would expect with the total washington coho runs of 2.5 million fish, but they surely will be a bit larger than last summer.
hopefully the quotas will be bigger so the ocean stays open past the last week of august, but with the number of fish returning this summer compared to last summer the fishing should be just plain outstanding. last year was incredible, and if the numbers are even close i agree with you that i can't wait for july to start fishing for cohos, especially with the pink bycatch along the northern coast and strait.
as for the coastal king quotas, i haven't heard anything definite yet... and hopefully the fishing is better for them this summer than last... where a 500 fish quota couldn't be taken (neah bay ocean quota). rumors say the number will be higher... should know within a week or two of at least the options for this summer's fishing.
RE:Looking forward to Fall Silver
You know how to get someone PUMPED! Sounds good Andre.
Also, there are C&R seasons in certain areas for those willing to fish and release all coho they catch. Sekiu traditionally has an extended C&R season although talkin' to the guys at Olsen's and other resorts you'd think no one in Washington bothers with it.
My brother and I fished it a while back and they upgraded us to the best room in the resort for short money and there were plenty of fish. We caught kings (blackmouth ~8 pounds) and coho in full fall vigor on fly rods. We were the only ones out there, kinda spooky but talk about lots of room to play. Strange how no one seems to bother with that C&R fishery.
In addition, the Westport fishery often provides a late season for the biggest coho I have ever caught or seen for that matter. The Satsop strain runs in the teens consistently and when they open Gray's Harbor the fish are all over the place when the tide starts running. A bit less elegant is the boat basin fishery, but the little bay is packed with Satsop silvers released from pens.
The best way to fish this is with a boat, anything will do because you are in the marina area. I suggest two methods:
1) find the biggest commercial boat on the dock and anchor off it. This ensures that the dock fishermen are clear of a wide area of water. I think dock #6 was the most concentrated zone, and there is a huge commercial boat that docks there. The fishing can get insane with coho busting up the surface hitting everything in sight. Hooking is not the problem, but keeping a 17 pound hooknose out of the barnacle encrusted boat pilings is another story. If you choose a wide open area you will have no problems. 9wt minimum.
2) Drift around the anchovy pens. This is a huge area and the fish always roam around due to the smell of the chovy farm. Working this area will result in hookups and there is less for the fish to run your line into.
Already sounds like it makes Hoodsport look good, but believe me - tangling with such huge coho in confined quarters has it's challenges and is a blast. Use intermediate lines and let it sink, strip the fly teasingly and hang on. Tide changes get the fish excited. This is all salt water.
If the harbor (which is actually a giant bay) is open, the best fishing is on the north channel just inside the outlet to the pacific. The charter boats will be working cut plug herring and the action gets hot and heavy with an occasional late chinook of 40 plus pounds coming on board to oohs and ahhs.
Fishing a Teeny style line with a long shank herring pattern or a candlefish fly with clouser eyes (see deep eel, but use longer shank) in the current seams will result in some hellacious hooknoses. Thes fish are so big and bad they bust tippets and straighten hooks.
Probably the best SWFF shore spot for coho is Bush Pt, when they open it. The fish run so close to shore even when I had my boat most of the fish would come from the shoreline. If you do have a boat and they are running the launch, fish the outgoing rip that forms from the lighthouse to the clay banks. The fish line up in the rip to feed and we put 27 fish on the line between the three of us one early October afternoon. Not all were landed but it was an incredible outing.
I have a picture of my wife and kids holding fall coho we bucktailed on the surface one fall day. My oldest daughter lost one that looked like it went 15# right at the gunwhale. Dolphins were playing all around us and it was a crisp fall day. We had Ivars chowder and starbucks coffee on the ferry from Whidbey back to Mukilteo with the boat in tow. Hell of a day.
No spot compares to Swiftsure Bank, which I fished every year with the likes of my mentor Ken Morgan and his entourage of hardcore open seas fishermen. I have some video footage of Swiftsure that I'll convert to mpeg and put up for viewing here one of these days.
Long story short (too late for that I guess) the krill was as thick as a carpet, the herring were gorging on them, and the horse mackeral, dogfish and salmon (all types) were gorging on the herring and krill. I caught a king with a softball sized sphere of krill in it's gullet and nothing else. Anyway, the horse makeral would push the krill in a wave and when it got thick the coho would leap over the mack's backs to eat from the most dense part of the bait mass. You just had to cast in front of a wave and move it fast enough to keep it away from the macs and >bang< salmon on.
I really miss those days!
RE:Looking forward to Fall Silver
cut this from another site hope the summer run numbers reflect similar increases.
Looking forward to Fall Silver
The fall Columbia Coho Estimates are as follows:
Early Run Fall Coho 2001 - 1,036,500
Late Run Fall Coho 2001 - 491,800
Total Run= 1,528,300
Last Year
Actual Early Coho Run 2000 - 378,000
Actual Late Coho Run 2000 - 260,100
Total Run= 638,100
Despite these increases, North of Falcon Ocean Season may not increase. The reason for this is that the estimated Wild Coho run for 2001 is 50,100 as compared to 69,000 in
2000. Its all about Wild Fish Mortality. Even though there are more fish, there are fewer Wild fish, and until we can recover the Wild Stocks, we will be restricted to how much
we can fish.

In the UK, his campaign against the use of processed foods in schools has had a lasting effect on the nation's diet and its psyche. Oliver is committed to changing the public's approach to food and dietary health, particularly among young people. His latest campaign, Food Revolution Day, attempts to transform the way people eat by educating all children about food, giving families the skills and knowledge they need to cook and motivating people to "stand up for their rights to better food".

Al Qaeda's dangerous play in Mali
After the fall of Libyan dictator, Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, the group began to accumulate huge amounts of weapons from the North African country, which remains unstable. This windfall was followed up by the strategic partnership with Ansar al Dine which allowed the two groups to sweep out government forces from northern Mali, before turning on a Tuareg independence movement, an erstwhile ally, gaining control an area of the Sahara the size of Texas. The mix of Al Qaeda in the Mahgreb, Ansar al Dine and the Tuareg rebels is combustible. After the looting of the Gaddafi arms depot in Libya, they are all very well-armed; indeed, Al Qaeda in the Maghreb is likely the best armed Al Qaeda franchise operating in the world today.
It is also the fastest growing al Qaeda franchise in the world today. And most of Mali's neighbors are horrified at what is taking place in the north. The Moroccan Foreign Minister told me recently that the jihadists present the greatest threat to regional stability in more than a decade. As previous experiences in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere have taught us, once Al Qaeda establishes a presence in a failing state, it becomes very difficult to dislodge…
Going forward, American drones and other surveillance assets should assist the French who also, urgently, need more smart bombs and munitions. Because it is clear, Al Qaeda will strike back. It can kill hostages and kidnap more. A more horrifying scenario to contemplate is a mass casualty attack in France itself. The campaign launched from Paris last week is not without risk. And French intelligence services are closely monitoring the more than five million Algerian émigrés in the country. Al Qaeda's emir, Ayman al-Zawahiri has been calling for a 9/11 style attack in Paris for years now.

It's right on Bowman's beach and I always have a blast Snook fishing with schminnows right in that area. And of course there is Tarpon, redfish, permit...
Even free kayak or canoe to fish the mangroves.

Exhibition focuses on African-American classicists, Dec. 1-11
Posted November 21, 2003; 12:53 a.m.
A photographic exhibition showcasing the work of 12 African-American scholars in classics will be on display Dec. 1-11 in Firestone Library.
At 8 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 4, Michele Ronnick, associate professor of classics at Wayne State University, will deliver a lecture titled "Classica Africana" in connection with the exhibition. The talk will take place in Betts Auditorium, School of Architecture.
Seven years ago, Ronnick began writing footnotes for a biography of William Sanders Scarborough (1852-1926), who was born into slavery, learned to read in secret and later became the first African-American member of the Modern Language Association. During the course of her research, Ronnick discovered 11 other African-American scholars born in the 19th century whose work had been forgotten.
The results of Ronnick's research are on display in the exhibition, "12 Black Classicists," which includes a dozen 30-by-40-inch photographs with accompanying biographies. Funded by the James Loeb Classical Library Foundation at Harvard University, the collection currently is on a national tour of American colleges and universities.
The 11 men and one woman taught Greek and Latin at the college level. Ronnick said their achievements laid the groundwork for the serious study and teaching of classical languages and philology among African Americans.
The exhibition will take place in the African-American studies reading room on the third floor of Firestone Library. A Princeton University identification card is required for admission. The library will be open from 8 a.m. to 11:45 p.m. Dec. 1-5 and Dec. 8-11; and from 9 a.m. to 11:45 p.m. Dec. 6-7.
The lecture, which will include a slide presentation on the exhibition, is sponsored by the University Center for Human Values , the Program in African-American Studies and the Department of Classics . For more information, contact the University Center for Human Values via e-mail or call (609) 258-4798.

Elementary school collects nickles for Nicaragua
In a place like the U.S. where there is so much wealth, it can be difficult for young kids to wrap their minds around the reality of the challenging conditions many people around the world live in.
It's a reality one local elementary school is not only learning about, but working to change, one nickle at a time.
Ask a La Crescent-Hokah Elementary student what Nickles for Nicaragua is and you'll get an answer like this.
"They're raising money and it takes 420 blocks, I think, to build a house and each block is $10," said fourth-grade student Tyler Sebo.
It's an initiative that's just a little more than a month old.
"The Gundersen Lutheran Global Connection Network came to visit our building leadership team and the leadership team decided this would be something we would be interested in," said Julie Beddow-Schubert, principal of La Crescent-Hokah Elementary School.
"We named it Nickles for Nicaragua and each of the classrooms has a jar and kids bring money and every $10 they bring in raises enough money to get one block for a home. So we represent that by a paper block that the kids decorate and we have a cardboard house in the lobby that we're putting all those blocks on and our goal is to build a complete house," said Margaret Cassidy, a special education La Crescent-Hokah Elementary teacher.
While the kids get the idea of raising money, it's taken a little time to for them to understand how different life is in other parts of the world.
"The concept of how big the world is is a tough thing for them to understand. They are able to read about different places in the world and start looking at maps and realize we're just a small piece of the world," said John Steffes, a La Crescent-Hokah Elementary second-grade teacher.17616248
Sebo said he didn't even know Nicaragua existed before the fundraiser started.
"It's hard because there's not much food and they have to make a bunch of stuff for them and it's hard for them because they don't have stoves and they have to cook it on fires with pots and then their roofs are just like tin," said Sebo.
Teachers hope it's a project that will help students learn the value of giving early on.
"If students don't have those practical, actual experiences, they will not necessarily come by them or seek them out to have that sense of compassion and giving, and practicing that in community can only lead to more and more service learning as the kids actually grow up and become adults," said Beddow-Schubert.
The school has already raised $1,000, that means there's still $3,200 left to raise by December 14th.
If you'd like to donate you can make a check out to the La Crescent-Hokah Parent Teacher Association and mail it to the elementary school at 4th and Oak Street, La Crescent, MN, 55947.
You can also drop off a donation in person at the school.
If you have questions, you can call the school at 507-895-4428.

On the beach, out to dinner, or simply running errands about town, you can always put your best foot forward with the fabulous collection of toe rings from Factory Direct Jewelry! We have one of the most diverse selections of toe rings for women, including Irish and Celtic designs, fun and flirty fashions, and classic gold and sterling silver toe rings. No matter what your personal style, Factory Direct Jewelry has something for you!
Previously considered to be a "summertime fad," silver and gold toe rings are now a fashion trend that you can see women and men wearing year round. Toe rings are the perfect accessory for any pair of open-toed shoes or sandals – they can dress up a casual pair of flip-flops or keep a pair of high heels from looking overly dressy. You can also wear your toe ring with closed-toe shoes. People won't see your beautiful foot décor, but you also don't have to take it on and off when switching shoes.
At Factory Direct Jewelry we offer semi fitted toe rings that can be adjusted to fit toes of nearly any size. Most people prefer to wear their toe ring on their second toe just below or at the first joint. The second toe (next to the big toe) is optimal because the wide toe pad keeps the toe ring on and prevents it from slipping around while you walk.
At Factory Direct Jewelry we have cut out the expensive middle man in order to offer our online jewelry directly to our customers at extraordinarily great deals, with an average savings of about 50% off of retail prices. In addition, we offer a 100% price guarantee, so if you have any doubts, concerns, or issues with the toe ring, gold chains or other jewelry you have received, you can simply return your order to us and we will refund your money right away, with no questions asked.

Police: Man enters apartment, targets women's rooms
19-year-old woman wakes up to man in her bed
MADISON, Wis. - Police are searching for a man accused of burglary after a woman woke up to a stranger in her bed early Sunday morning.
According to a Madison Police Department statement, a man entered the Statesider, a downtown apartment on Frances Street, early Sunday morning and told building management he was there to visit a friend. The statement said the man instead entered several unlocked rooms in the apartment, entering the bed of a sleeping 19-year-old woman, who told him to leave. She was not harmed during the incident.
The statement said the man inappropriately touched another woman in the elevator and made lewd comments to several others. One woman found money had been taken from her wallet.
Police have not identified the man, who the statement describes as black, 6 feet tall, with a beard and a slim build.

Comment Re:nice job (Score 1, Redundant) 102
I agree and disagree. I agree that these new terminals are a waste of money from a "please the customer" standpoint. However, clearly the idea that flying in the modern age is stressful is evidence that the miracle of modern flight is wasted on us. Because there is occasionally a 3 hour delay to a 5 hour flight to cross the country, somehow this is an unacceptable level of stress in our lives? In historical context, this is absurd. I just add 2-3 hours to my flight times and don't worry. If we can speed it up, great. But if not, we are already experiencing a miracle by the standards of a generation ago!

For the third time in three elections, Americans have voted for change. They returned control of the House over to Republicans and made gains in the Senate. The result means two more years of bickering and gridlock in Washington.
Domestic policy will feel the brunt of the election. Domestic issues like deficits and bailouts of too-big-to-fail firms drove the campaign, not just among the Tea Partiers who energized Republicans but also among the Independents who abandoned the Democrats. President Barack Obama's domestic initiatives will be stillborn unless Congress agrees.
The dynamic is different in foreign policy. On many foreign policy issues, presidents can act as they wish until Congress stops them. The Republican House will certainly try. Legislation to mandate tougher action like stiffened sanctions to try to contain Iran's nuclear program is inevitable. Bills to counter China's unfair trade practices; revamp the United Nations; and punish unfriendly regimes in Cuba, North Korea, and Syria will gain momentum. Obama's plan to reduce U.S. forces in Afghanistan starting next summer will draw fire.
But as long as Obama is prepared to veto bills he dislikes, he will carry the day. Congress has not overridden a foreign policy veto in a quarter century.
Obama will hit roadblocks on those foreign policy issues that require congressional approval. Indeed, he already has. Cap-and-trade climate change legislation is dead, the New START Treaty on reducing U.S. and Russian strategic nuclear arms is in intensive care, and the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty remains in its political grave. New START might yet pass, either during the lame duck session that starts in two weeks or after the Senate reconvenes in January. But there is no Senate appetite for new arms control agreements.
Republicans looking to cut spending will target foreign aid, even though any savings will be minuscule relative to a $1.3 trillion deficit. The $750 billion defense budget offers more potential savings. But the deficit-cutting imperative will wilt when faced with the competing Republican urge to support the military, not to mention the political interests that will defend programs targeted for cuts.
Obama and Republican leaders will need to decide whether to find common ground over the next two years. Trade offers one possibility for bipartisanship. Congress will not pass trade promotion authority empowering Obama to undertake new trade negotiations. But bilateral trade deals with South Korea, Colombia, and Panama currently await congressional action.
Success on even these modest measures is questionable. Congressional Democrats have few reasons to help the White House. Their constituents oppose free trade, and Obama hasn't shown he can help Democrats who cast politically tough votes.
Meanwhile, Republicans will be similarly divided. Voters of all political persuasions have become more skeptical of trade. Some Republicans will resist handing the White House any victories. Just last week, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell said his top priority was ensuring that Obama is a one-term president.
With the 2012 presidential election now starting in earnest, McConnell's comment highlights the most likely consequence of Tuesday's election--intensified partisanship and gridlock. Americans may want Washington to change its ways, but their votes are encouraging business as usual.

Most recently, he was one of just 26 law professors nationwide profiled in What the Best Law Teachers Do (Harvard 2013), and he received the UCLA Distinguished Teaching Award in 2014. He teaches immigration law, immigrants' rights, and civil procedure.
