Halperin: Obama was a … Update: MSNBC suspends Halperin "indefinitely"
posted at 8:45 am on June 30, 2011 by Ed Morrissey
I've been in radio for a few years now, and the first rule in broadcasting is this — always assume the microphones are hot and that you're going live. (The second rule is never assume that the incoherent caller is drunk, but that's a story for another day.) Mark Halperin apparently forgot that first rule this morning on MSNBC, and decided to give a rather blunt assessment of Barack Obama's performance in yesterday's press conference. Halperin's use of language went out live, thanks to a producer who couldn't operate the seven-second delay:
Mark Halperin, editor-at-large for Time, called President Obama "a dick" on Thursday on a popular MSNBC morning show and then quickly apologized.
"I thought he was a dick yesterday," Halperin, who also is a senior political analyst for MSNBC, said on Morning Joe, referring to the President's conduct during his press conference.
Halperin later apologized for his language, but the fuss seems a little overblown. "Dick" isn't a word that needs to be censored; for one thing, it's a proper name used by a number of politicians, including Dick Durbin, who's second in Democratic leadership in the Senate. It's also a playground word for "jerk" or "penis," but hardly an obscenity. Either way, the producer shouldn't be blamed for missing the delay button.
Halperin should be apologizing for a lack of imagination. He's right in that the President acted like a pouting, sullen adolescent during the press conference, whining about having to answer for the constitutionality of sending men and women into combat without asking Congress for authorization. Obama bizarrely blamed the fiscal crisis on a small coterie of corporate-jet owners, a heretofore unknown juggernaut of economic destruction. Instead of acting presidential, Obama gave us a hissy fit for over sixty minutes. And the best Halperin can do is "dick"?
Maybe Halperin is just channeling his inner Spicoli:
Update: MSNBC decides to get a little dickish with Halperin:
"Mark Halperin's comments this morning were completely inappropriate and unacceptable. We apologize to the President, The White House and all of our viewers," in a statement by MSNBC spokesperson Jeremy Gaines. "We strive for a high level of discourse and comments like these have no place on our air. Therefore, Mark will be suspended indefinitely from his role as an analyst." …
"I completely agree with everything in MSNBC's statement about my remark. I believe that the step they are taking in response is totally appropriate," Halperin said in a statement. "Again, I want to offer a heartfelt and profound apology to the President, to my MSNBC colleagues, and to the viewers. My remark was unacceptable, and I deeply regret it."
An indefinite suspension for saying "dick" on the air? Oh, please. Halperin won't have to go dig ditches — he works for Time, not MSNBC — but this is still far, far overblown. It was a dumb remark, but if MSNBC suspended everyone who made dumb remarks on their channel, they wouldn't have any hosts left. At most, this warranted a couple of days off the air, especially with Halperin's real-time apology.
Did MSNBC get mad because of the word, or because it was aimed at Obama?

Um...I live in one of the Avalon buildings and just resigned a lease for a 2% raise from last year. In fact they are actually offering $500 to anyone who refers a tenant. This is complete B.S.
- October 6, 2008 at 10:03 PM
Interesting - do you live in one of the Avalons in the Bowery or one of the other locations? I heard this rumor of the rent increase too - maybe they just wanted to get rid of some particular tenants!
- October 6, 2008 at 10:30 PM
So the stroller mommies are leaving their kids on the street largely unattended now. I suppose it's just a logical extension of their hubris and carelessness considering how cavalier they are with their bicycles and laptops. To those people children are essentially just glorified accessories anyways - vain extensions of their narcisssistic personalities that are enitrely replaceable and upgradeable, not unlike a fancy new laptop.

The Taming of The Shrew (2010)
Kate and Petruchio on Ice
The Taming of the Shrew, while retaining its audience appeal, is the subject of much debate and controversy. Taken at face value, the "taming" in question can easily disturb and offend. This 400-year-old play was certainly written at a different time and for a different audience, perhaps one that found little value in women.
The Duke of Vienna, Vincentio, reveals his plan to leave the city and entrust the power of his position to his deputy, Angelo. Known for his moral rectitude, Angelo cracks down on sexual improprieties. Mistress Overdone tells the licentious Lucio that young Claudio has been arrested and will be executed for impregnating his fiancée, Juliet, and then learns from Pompey that the city's brothels have been closed, leaving her without an income. In a desperate attempt to save his life, Claudio sends his friend Lucio to the convent where his sister Isabella is preparing to become a nun, in hopes that she can persuade Angelo to be merciful. In the interim, the Duke disguises himself as a friar and returns to Vienna in order to see "If power change purpose, what our seemers be." Prompted by Lucio, Isabella leaves her cloister to save her brother.
Despite his counselor Escalus's plea for leniency, Angelo resolves to execute Claudio. The comic Elbow arrests Pompey and Froth; however, Angelo cannot determine the validity of the charges, and Escalus dismisses the pair with a warning. The Provost, in charge of the prison, appeals for Claudio but Angelo dismisses him and receives Isabella. Rallied by Lucio, she argues persuasively for her brother's release. Angelo's libido is strangely stirred and he agrees again to meet her. The disguised Vincentio learns of Claudio's fate from Juliet. Angelo makes Isabella an indecent proposal: her chastity for her brother's life.
In prison, the Duke steels Claudio for death. Isabella reveals to her brother Angelo's dastardly plot. Although Claudio initially rejects the idea, he succumbs to his fear of death and asks her to compromise. Isabella refuses. The Duke overhears the siblings, sends Claudio back to his cell, and submits his own plan to Isabella. He tells her to agree to sleep with Angelo under cover of darkness and then Mariana, Angelo's discarded fiancée, will take her rightful place in Angelo's bed. Again Elbow arrests Pompey, and then Lucio unknowingly libels the Duke to his face. The disguised Duke challenges Lucio to make these claims before the Duke when he returns. Escalus locks up Mistress Overdone for prostitution and unknowingly demonstrates his loyalty to the Duke.

GLORY 5 Aftermath: Steve Wakeling Has Arrived
- Written by Rian Scalia
In the aftermath of yesterday's GLORY 5 London event, there's a lot of subject matter to talk about. From thoughts on the overall show to Tyrone Spong's emphatic finish of Remy Bonjasky in the main event, a lot went down yesterday, to put it briefly.
Anyone who has been following LiverKick knows I'm a huge proponent of other weight classes in kickboxing and that's why I will take this opportunity to shine some more light on one of yesterday's high points that I feel isn't being talked about enough: Steve Wakeling. Wakeling made his GLORY debut yesterday in the 85kg division and absolutely demolished Eddie Walker with low kicks, culminating in a second round stoppage.
Sure, Remy Bonjasky and Tyrone Spong were the big names on the event, but that's not all that matters. Steve Wakeling returning to the ring to campaign in GLORY's 85kg division is a pretty big deal. It's no secret that Wakeling has been inactive over the past years, but nevertheless, he's an elite fighter, and he showed why yesterday. He was in complete control of the fight from start to finish. The kickboxing ruleset that GLORY uses didn't seem to affect him at all as he utilized heavy, swift kicks, a sharp, stiff jab and an overpowering clinch game.
The main point here is that we now have another elite fighter added to the mix at the top of GLORY's 85kg division, which has already began to kick off this year. On a glance at GLORY's 85kg division, not including anyone that could potentially be signed, there are potential match-ups with Sahak Parparyan, L'houcine Ouzgni, Jason Wilnis and even a rematch of the controversial draw with Artem Levin. Of course, should he fight Muay Thai again, Simon Marcus is right there as well. Now moreso than ever, it looks like Steve Wakeling will get the chance to be an active fighter again. He talked about the reasons for his inactivity in this interview on GLORY's website:
"'Its true, its been a struggle to get fights really. And its not for lack of trying. But it has been a challenge to get people to sign on the dotted line. Either that, or there have been offers where the purses just haven't been right. I don't mean to sound big-headed or arrogant but I know what I am worth and I won't fight for peanuts,' he explains."
He'll finally have a platform to stay active on and showcase his skills while mixing it up with some of the best fighters, which is right where he belongs.

Ok, So....i have a 29 or 30 gal aquarium. Dont remember the exact right off...but 2 weekends ago I cleaned out my aquarium from it just sitting with junk in it and old plants and rocks etc and evaporating water. I decided two weeks ago to clean it out...take it outside scrub it good and clean all the gravel really well. I decided to toss alot of the old gravel and dump in a bunch of new to mix with a little of the old. I filled up the tank cleaned out the filter..its a 30 gal power head using the cartridge filters that have carbon inside. A heater and the temp is holding around 76-77ish. I also bought a 12" airstone and pump. (never had in the past). I also put 3 small looks like java ferns back in my tank from what I had before.
Not knowing what I was really doing yet, I had my wife go ahead and buy a pleco that night. He seems to be doing ok.
Then we slowly added 3 mollies and 3 platys. then came 2 small snails and 1 big mystery snail. Then came 3 guppys. and an african dwarf frog...all over two weeks. Only one red colored platy ended up dying over the past 2 weeks. The others seem to be doing great.
Well today we decided to stop at petsmart and get our frog a buddy...but when we got home with a second small african dwarf, we noticed that the current frog seems suddenly paralyzed up front and a weird clear colored bacteria or fungus covering him some. If you barely touch him with a tank tool he will kick his back legs..but he just seems paralyzed with his back arched.
I tested my water with test strips the by Jungle labs and thought all was going well. ..but today I decided to get an API master test kit and do it the right way...and man were my strips wrong. My PH is showing around 8.0, my ammonia around 4.0, my nitrite around .25 and my nitrate at 0 or a little above.
Now ...I guess my cycle hasnt got up to par....
Anything I can do on the mean time to help? Also, I have noticed my carbon filter cartridge in the power head looks dirty, but I dont want to take it out or change it yet due to it being too soon......any tips for a newb??
Large water changes every day with a good chlorinator like Prime. Your in for a bit of work for a few weeks. Keep up the water changes or find another home for your stock until your tank is cycled.
Please check out the how to cycle with fish in this forum.
By the way, Greetings, and please post questions in the correct forum. They will receive alot more attention there.
Forgot the link,
Have a read of that and maybe it will explain a few things I missed.

thanks...i just did a water change a few mins ago 25%. I will do this daily if I can or 50% every other day. Im thinking about seeing if I can get someting from an established tank to put in my filter to maybe help speed the process.
well if you want to get some good bacteria in your filter (to cycle your tank) you need bio-max. carbon is not good at housing bacteria. bio media is something like this
you also need another filter. your filter needs to be at least double your tank size. so you need a filter that is rated for 60 gallons or 2 filters that are rated for 30. also i would do 50% water changes every day.
Oh, and if your filter only has one cartridge then replacing that puts you back at square 1My 33 gallon/125 liter tank. My photography on flickr.
[/QUOTE]Oh, and if your filter only has one cartridge then replacing that puts you back at square 1[/QUOTE]
I think that he is already at square one. I would go ahead and change it to bio max. or you can get another filter and fill that one up on bio-max.
its your call though.

im not fully at square one. I never changed my filter since I started it up. Its still in there. I did add a bio foam in front of the carbon filter bag this morning. I got a fluval biofoam and cut it in half and put in front right before the water comes out. Does it matter if its behind the carbon or in front?
Also switched over to Prime for this water change a moment ago.
Hi and welcome
You need to do much larger water changes and do them daily or possibly twice a day until you get your ammonia below .5 ppm. 4 ppm is deadly and you're going to lose a lot more fish if you don't take care of it asap.
So - I'd suggest another 75% W/C today and every day until you get that ammonia under control if you want to save the fish. You're aiming for .25 ppm while you are cycling your tank. I'm hoping it's not too late and the gill damage from the ammonia is reversible.
Also, when you do your water changes, dose with enough prime for t he entire tank. In a 30 I'd dose with a cap full which is supposed to handle a 50 gal tank. the extra will help and possible dilute some of the bad effects of the ammonia.
Good luck and keep after it :o)

Deak appointed chief of staff to interim president at Binghamton University
BINGHAMTON, NY -- Terrence Deak, associate professor of psychology and deputy to the president, has been appointed chief of staff by Binghamton University Interim President C. Peter Magrath. Deak, a behavioral neuroscientist, had served as deputy to the president since July 2009.
In his new role, he will oversee the operations of the president's office, including staff reports, budget issues and projects important to the president and the senior officers. "I am delighted that this talented faculty member has agreed to be a key part of my leadership team," said Interim President C. Peter Magrath.
Deak earned his bachelor's degree in psychology with a minor in chemistry from Bowling Green State University, and his master's and doctoral degrees from the University of Colorado at Boulder. Before joining the faculty at Binghamton in 2001, he worked as a senior scientist at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, performing contract research for the U.S. Navy in neurotoxicology.
Deak's research examines neuroendocrine and neuroimmune consequences of stress, seeking to determine the mechanisms by which acute and chronic stress lead to complex disease states as diverse as major depression, alcoholism and Parkinson's disease. He received a Young Investigator Award from the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression (NARSAD) in 2003, and completed a full-year sabbatical funded in part by the James McKeen Cattell Foundation.
Deak serves on the editorial board for Endocrinology, a top-tier journal in biomedical research, and has published more than 50 articles. He has research funding through the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation.

I finished the section about nutrition in class this week. The students received the introductory information which is pretty straight forward. Vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats and carbohydrates haven't changed much over the years. What has changed is which foods are the "bad" foods.
You know the ones, if you eat them you'll have a heart attack, get cancer and high blood pressure while becoming obese.
Now while Americans do have big problems with these ailments, its difficult to pinpoint the food that is causing the most damage. Years ago, many different foods were demonized and we took them off our tables in an effort to be healthier. With further study, we found that now these bad foods turn out to be not so bad, some are even good for you. Here is just a small sample…
Eggs. They were taboo because they contain cholesterol. And everyone knows that too much cholesterol in your blood can clog your vessels and lead to heart attacks. However, it turns out that the egg's cholesterol (dietary) is not the same as the clogging cholesterol in your blood. And the egg is packed with protein with several vitamins and minerals.
Chocolate. Remember when chocolate caused acne and made you fat? Well, now it turns out to be heart-healthy, but you have to come over to the dark side, at least most benefits seem to come from dark chocolate. There is a Swedish study that says chocolate lowers stroke risk and 90% of Swedish chocolate is milk chocolate, so maybe milk chocolate lovers still have a chance.
Whole Milk. Now here's one that hits right at my home. It wasn't the milk that was bad for you, but the fat in the milk. So, the switch was made to skim milk. I had to slowly change from whole to 2% to 1% then skim. My boys grew up on skim milk, four gallons a week to be exact. They don't even care for the whole stuff, too thick. Recent studies indicate that drinking whole milk reduces central obesity.
And to add insult to injury, the study didn't say just add whole milk, but also real butter and real whipped cream. All these years without whipped cream… dairy fat is the hero now. Instead of removing these items from our diet, we need to make sure that we use them.
Coffee. Back then it was caffeine fueled anxiety that would stunt your growth. There is still caffeine but it's not as bad as we believed. It apparently enhances brain function. Plus there are many good antioxidants and nutrients in coffee, and they actually add real whip cream on top of some cups.
Nuts. These were known to have good nutrition, but with a lot of fat. Now that we know there is good fat and bad fat, the nuts rise to the top of the pile. Tree nuts are usually recommended, but studies show that peanuts, which are really legumes (like beans and peas), are just as good. In fact, boiled peanuts seem to have a similar amount of the same antioxidant that is found in red wine, and you don't have to hide a handful of peanuts from your pastor.
This is just a sample of foods that are now thought to be good for you. Just google or bing the phrase, "bad foods that are actually good for you" and you will get many hits that give these and other ideas on foods.
Just remember that too much of a good thing can be bad for you. Take each area mentioned above with moderation. Overuse can quickly throw the nutrition benefits and the calories into the negative column.
And keep checking with the latest nutrition research. Maybe some favorite taboo food is on the verge of changing from a zero to a hero.

Conference planned on political polarization, Dec. 3-4
Posted November 18, 2004; 05:00 p.m.
Has the American political system become increasingly polarized, or is the claim that the United States has become a 50-50 nation of blue states and red states overstated? "The Polarization of American Politics: Myth or Reality?" will be the topic of a conference Friday and Saturday, Dec. 3-4, in Dodds Auditorium, Robertson Hall.
The conference will bring together a wide array of past and present members of Congress, national journalists and academic specialists on public opinion and electoral behavior for two days of give-and-take discussion. Sessions will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.
Included will be sessions on trends in polarization, on divisions in the electorate and in Washington, and on the cause and consequences of polarization and its possible remedies. The conference is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School's Center for the Study of Democratic Politics and the Program in Leadership Studies. The full program is available on the center's Web site .

Cudahy High School Refuses To Help Bullied Teen
Submitted By A Worried Resident
Every student should have the right to an uninterrupted, rewarding education, right?
Well teachers and officials at Cudahy High School are brushing away a teen's request for help to escape comments and rude remarks in one of this student's classes.
For several weeks now, this teen has been trying to seek help, with one simple request: to be removed from the class in which the rude and hurtful remarks are being said.
Teachers as well as school officials will not listen to her story and say that this student is not telling the truth.
If she was not telling the truth, then why would this student leave school down and crying until she got home and she had somebody to talk to? I thought that teachers and school officials were supposed to create a healthy learning environment, both mentally and physically. It seems that they are not doing that here.
Without naming names, something needs to be done about this situation, but more people need to step up and support this student through a difficult time in their life. I know how hard it is to go to school knowing that you will be made fun of, as I was the victim of this when I was in high school.

Problem I've learned is- some dogs don't "know" they're doing it, particularly those dogs that have been allowed to be vocal for a long, long, time.
The "novelty" of the dogs' eagerness, by the display of vocalization finally wears off, and it's only THEN does it become a "problem" for the owner- like- the first time a flock of wary Blackducks begin circling and get 50yds. away with their wings set, and the dog gets vocal

"There's something in the color blue that triggers a relaxation response. It makes me feel as if I'm floating in a boat, looking up at the sky. Everything about it speaks of a gentle, tranquil, Zen state of mind. This is not an aloof blue. It's a blue that gathers you in." —Leatrice Eiseman. Paint by Pantone.
There's a softness to this cream, with a touch of red, that attracts me. That bit of warmth makes it more uplifting. It's like a blossom in spring. I would do it in a bedroom with olive, navy, or eggplant. It's gentle and clean and optimistic — a fresh way of being Zen." —Brett Beldock. Paint by Pantone.

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 02:54 PM GMT die 05o May, anno 2011
The largest tornado outbreak and greatest one-day total for tornadoes in history occurred during last week's historic super tornado outbreak, said NOAA in a press release on Wednesday. They estimate 190 tornadoes touched down during the 24-hour period from 8:00 a.m. EDT April 27 to 8:00 a.m. EDT April 28 (132 tornadoes have already been confirmed, with several weeks of damage surveys still to come.) NOAA's estimate for the number of tornadoes during the three-day April 25 - 28, 2011 Super Outbreak, is 305. This is nearly double the previous record for a multi-day tornado outbreak of 155 tornadoes, set just two weeks previously during the April 14 - 16, 2011 outbreak. There were tornado outbreaks in May 2004 (385 tornadoes) and May 2003 (401 tornadoes) that had more tornadoes, but these outbreaks occurred over an eight-day and eleven-day period, respectively, and were not due to a single storm system. Prior to April 2011, the most tornadoes in a 24-hour period, and in an outbreak lasting less than four days, was the 148 tornadoes in the Super Outbreak of April 3 - 4, 1974.

Figure 2. Preliminary tornado tracks from NWS survets for the April 27, 2011 tornado outbreak. Image credit: NWS Southern Region.
The death toll for the epic outbreak continues to fluctuate, and has decreased substantially to 318. The count decreased in Alabama from 250 to 236 due to some of the victims being counted twice. There are still hundreds of people missing from the tornado, and search teams have not yet made it to all of the towns ravaged by the tornadoes. The estimated 318 deaths makes this is the 4th or 5th deadliest tornado outbreak on record. Only the great Tri-State tornado outbreak of 1925 (747 killed), the 1936 Tupelo-Gainsville tornado outbreak (454 killed), and a 1932 outbreak (332 killed) had more deaths.
Other notable facts from the great April 25 -28, 2011 tornado outbreak
The Tuscaloosa-Birmingham tornado is likely to be the most expensive tornado of all-time, and damage from the April 25 - 28 outbreak is the most expensive tornado outbreak in history. Insured damages have been rated at $2 - $5 billion, and uninsured losses will be several billion more. The previous most expensive tornado outbreak in history was the $3.5 billion price tag, in 2005 dollars, of the April 3 - 4, 1974 Super Outbreak .
The Tuscaloosa-Birmingham tornado caused at least 65 fatalities. This tornado had a maximum width of 1.5 miles and a track 80 miles long. These are the most fatalities from a single tornado in the United States since May 25, 1955, when 80 people were killed in a tornado in southern Kansas with 75 of those deaths in Udall, Kansas.
NOAA estimates there were more than 600 tornadoes during the month of April 2011, shattering previous records. The previous April tornado record was 267, set in 1974. April has averaged just 161 tornadoes over the past decade. The previous record number of tornadoes during any month was 542, set in May 2003. So far there have been an estimated 881 tornadoes in 2011. The annual tornado record is 1,817, set in 2004. May is historically the most active month for tornadoes.
So far, 2011 is the 13th deadliest year for tornadoes on record with 369, and the deadliest year since the advent of Doppler radar in late 1980s and 1990s. The deadliest year on record is 1925 with 794.
The outbreak had fourteen violent tornadoes--two EF-5s (the Smithville, MS tornado, and the Hackleburg, AL tornado), and twelve EF-4s. The Super Outbreak of 1974 had far more violent tornadoes, with an unprecedented seven F5s and 23 F4s.
National Weather Service forecast offices provided plenty of warning for the tornadoes, issuing life-saving tornado warnings with an average lead-time of 24 minutes. Warnings were in effect for more than 90 percent of the tornadoes.

The most violent tornado of the outbreak: the 210-mph Hackleburg tornado
The most violent and longest-lived tornado of the great April 26 - 28, 2011 outbreak was the Hackleburg tornado. This tornado initially touched down in Northwest Alabama near the Mississippi border, then roared to the northeast for 132.1 miles into Tennessee, causing EF-5 damage at many locations along its path. The most significant damage occurred in the town of Phil Campbell, wind in excess of 200 mph sucked up a 25-foot section of pavement and scattered it up to 1/3 mile away. Tornadoes that can suck up pavement are a rare breed, earning this twister its EF-5 rating. The tornado intensified even further as it hit the town of Oak Grove, where winds estimated at 210 mph over a swath more than one mile wide completely destroyed many buildings, tossed a Corvette 641 feet, and tossed another large car so far that it has not yet been found.

All-time Mississippi River flood records fall
This week, for the first time in 74 years, the Army Corps of Engineers was forced to intentionally destroy the Birds Point levee on the west bank of the Mississippi River, just downstream from the river's confluence with the Ohio River at Cairo, Illinois. The Ohio River at Cairo, Illinois continues to fall this morning, thanks to this emergency operation, with a level two feet below the all-time peak of 61.8' set on Monday night. The destruction of the Birds Point levee also helped slow the rise of the Mississippi River just south of its confluence with the Ohio River, but the river is still rising slowly, and has now set all-time records at New Madrid, Missouri, Tiptonville, Tennessee, and Caruthersville, Missouri--a 70-mile stretch of river downstream from Cairo. The massive pulse of flood waters will continue downstream for the next 2 - 3 weeks, setting all-time flood records at many locations. The National Weather Service in Jackson, Mississippi has created a nice "May 2011 Mississippi River Flood" web page that details the current stages, expected crests, and previous record crests along the river's path. Currently, the Mississippi is expected to reach its 2nd highest level on record at Memphis on May 11, beat the all-time record at Vicksburg, Mississippi by 1.3' on May 20, and smash the all-time record at Natchez, Mississippi by six feet on May 22. I'll be saying much more about this unprecedented Mississippi flood on Friday, and throughout the month of May.

This Sunday night at 5:30, KCPT airs the documentary Veterans Day 11-11-11. A nationwide "day in the life" exploration of what it means to be a military veteran in this country.
More than 40 accomplished video storytellers volunteered their time and talent to produce a series of profiles about the service shared by veterans and the sacrifices that they have made.
Every story in the movie was shot on Veterans Day 2011 thus the title 11.11.11.
One of those stories was made by local filmmaker Jason Rhodes who profiles the service of area veteran, retired Colonel Robert Dudley. His story will be seen by the nation Sunday.
There's also another regional tie-in in this national documentary. Did you know that Emporia, Kansas actually lays claim to being the birthplace of Veterans Day?
That story is also told in Sunday's film. Producer Pat Holloway, a photojournalist at Fox4 news, journeyed to Emporia to chronicle the town's Veteran's Day celebrations.

It's been a while. Oh crap, is it really 2012 already?
So what have I been up to?
I've been
wasting investing a ridiculous amount of time trying to learn Japanese. It's a nutso language, especially the writing system. Seriously. And I used to think that English was weird. Being able to read, say, a sci-fi novel written in Japanese without a dictionary is looking more and more like a pipe dream. I should have gone with, say, Mandarin instead, which looks a lot more sane (and more useful these days). Anyway, along the way I wrote a couple of programs to help (?) me with my learning (??).
The first one (which I still use every day) was a flash card program to practice vocabulary and kanji. That one's not too interesting.
Then I wrote a Missile Command clone to practice kanji. Here's a YouTube video. And here's the code.
Then I wrote a typespeed clone with kanji. (YouTube video. Code.)
Then I wanted to try out Android programming and started to write a Tetris clone with kanji. (YouTube video. Code.) Yes, of course I'm not using Java. Java, as we all know, sucks. There's a tiny Java wrapper but most of the code is under the jni/ directory, and I can compile a stand-alone Linux version with SDL/OpenGL.
I started to use C++ for my personal coding, which is a lot more fun than C. Unfortunately my C++ code has yuck-inducing raw pointers all over the place (oh hi ncm).
This concludes our blogging for the year of 2012. Thank you, you've been a lovely audience.
(Actually, I have a Japanese-language blog somewhere else but I'm not telling you where it is! Muhahah!)

Dr. Kamath is a neuropsychologist in the Division of Medical Psychology. She received her undergraduate degree in Psychology from Duke University in 2002 and later obtained her doctoral degree in clinical psychology from the University of Central Florida. After completing her neuropsychology internship at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Dr. Kamath finished a three-year postdoctoral fellowship in clinical neuropsychology and psychiatric research at the University of Pennsylvania. She joined the faculty in 2013 as an assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences.
Dr. Kamath's research interests involve studies of orbitofrontal dysfunction in neuropsychiatric and neurological conditions. In particular, her research has focused on the use of olfactory measures as robust translational correlates of anhedonia and negative symptoms in schizophrenia, and as surrogate markers of disease susceptibility tied to a critical embryonic risk period of the illness. She is also interested in examining olfactory dysfunction and alterations in feeding behavior in neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease, frontotemporal dementia, and Alzheimer's disease.

Blessings of a Varied Life
As often happens, life has caught up with me and my time is required in other pursuits. I spent the last summer helping write a book and also grew my family by two precious daughters. Life is good.
I have treasured my time at Beetleblogger. I learned and loved and gave my all to the cause of marriage through this blog for nearly two years of my life. It was a learning experience for me to have the chance to understand the marriage debate in every facet. I appreciate all the comments, discussions and lively debates we've had that helped me understand the nuances of the issue so clearly. I hope these debates can stand as a snapshot of this time in history. The fight for marriage is ongoing, and while I'm taking a break from blogging, I am actively helping in other parts of the fight. See you on nomblog!
Carry on!

Product Description
They are called Feral Warriors—an elite band of immortals who can change shape at will. Sworn to rid the world of evil, consumed by sorcery and seduction, their wild natures are primed for release . . .
For a thousand years she has haunted him—Ariana, Queen of the linas, a beauty of mist and light. His love, his life mate . . . Kougar believed her lost to him forever, until the truth of her stunning betrayal left him bitter and hungry for revenge. Now she alone holds the power to save two trapped and desperate Feral Warriors.

One of the benefits of being a huge music fan, and writing here at GeekDad, is getting to review a lot of great independent music and the tools used to enjoy that music. Music is nothing without something to amplify its sound directly to your ear holes. I prefer headphones, as my ears are usually places where other people don't want to hear what I'm listening to. My latest review set is the Skullcandy Hesh 2 headphones.
Like many Skullcandy offerings, the Hesh 2 headphones come in a variety of color combinations. I'm simple, so I opted for the black (even though I do have the Jamaican color scheme earbuds, just 'cause I like the flat cable). I immediately liked the leather touch ear pillows and strong, sturdy construction. They are adjustable for head size of course, and come with a little carry pouch that offers no real protection.
When it comes down to evaluating headphones though, it's all about the music. I mean, the look and feel of the headphones on your head is important of course, and the Hesh 2 headphones are lightweight and fit pretty snug without crushing your ears. That's a definite plus. Once that physical stuff was out of the way, it was time to break out the tunes.

We are getting nothing from the Russians regarding sanctions against Iran. This in spite of bending over backwards in regards to everything from missile defense to providing unprecedented access to our nuclear arsenal.
I would expect Israel to take this a sign that they should perhaps launch a pre emptive strike, unprovoked attack for those anti semites in the crowd, against a country whose leaders have made no bones about who they want to see driven into the sea. Unfortunately, if I were Israel, I would not hold out much hope for a we have your back moment from this administration.

The Church of Bumpus-ism is in it's infancy.
The revelation came unto me as I sat becoming inebriated at my local watering hole one evening...
...God said unto me: The world's religions are wrong. They have become too rigid and unyielding. It is up to you to correct this injustice.
I, Bumpus, am the prophet.
We are currently a very small congregation (me and a bunch of drunk buds from the bar) However, we accept ALL conversions from any faiths, or no faith at all.
We are in the process of crafting our commandments. The catch: commandments are not to include "thou shalt not..." - only "thou shalt..."
1) Thou shalt honor thy beverage brewed with hops and barley.
2) Thou shalt believe in thy teams (unless it's the NY Jets)
3) Thou shalt enjoy life to it's fullest.
4) Thou shalt be accepting of others.
5) Thou shalt be expressive of your opinions.
6) Thou shalt smell what The Rock is cooking.

Monona Grove girls basketball team sets sights on state championship
Trying to make long-range prediction come true
MONONA, Wis. - The Monona Grove girls basketball team is undefeated this season and ranked No. 1 in the state in Division Two.
The team is hoping to end its season with a state championship. It's something teammates have been talking about for a few years now.
When they were in the seventh grade, many of the current team members played a game at Madison LaFollette, and Monona Grove beat their rivals.
The team then went back to coach Eric Nelson's house and made signs that said: "We're going to win state in 2013."
Now, the Silver Eagles could be on the verge of making those dreams come true.
"That's kind of what you're hoping for," Nelson said. "They're having that fun in the moment and they were having a blast up in the room, but they also had that vision of long-term."
"This year, I think our focus is much better. We know to take things as they are and not look forward or back. If it's meant to be, it will happen," said Taylor Nelson, a junior on the team.

Currently watching The Bourne Identity, with The Bourne Supremacy to follow tomorrow, and hopefully The Bourne Ultimatum on Friday.
The Bourne movies are awesome, despite not following the books very much.
I'll probably grab 300 at Target.
The Best Buy set is cool, but if I get it it'll probably end up like the V for Vendetta mask...still packed in a box somewhere.
[FONT=Book Antiqua]He passes to Moses - He shoots, he scores![/FONT]
Mummy of the raincoat is a gigantic trollop.
I actually ended up getting the 300 Best Buy exclusive. Turns out that the Target exclusive was just a 2 disc set that included the downloadable movie, no 3rd disc at all and their bonus features were referring to the ones on the 2nd disc (very shoddy and confusing advertising [in the ad/circular] on Target's part there). That pretty much sealed the deal on my driving to Best Buy and getting their exclusive edition (which I wanted more than the others anyways). I haven't cracked it open yet, but the helmet looks really sweet and it is bigger and heavier than I was anticipating. The Best Buy exclusive is apparently selling out fast at some locations so if you all want it, get there asap. My Best Buy only had about 5 left (after I got my 2 [one for my brother]) and I went an hour or so after they opened. Anyways, I would love to watch the movie now but I gotta head to work...
BTW- I also picked up a couple of SuperBad Best Buy bonus discs that include some special features and a free movie ticket to see the movie, rang up at $11.99 but the cashier adjusted it to $.01. WooHoo.
"That's the best deal you're gonna get. I won't tell you you can save yourself, because you can't."
I just finished watching 300. Awesome DVD.

The Kleenex brand design team pulls inspiration from a variety of home décor and fashion trends to forecast trends up to four years in advance and anticipate consumer needs, providing the most fashion-forward designs. When you add Isaac Mizrahi, award-winning designer and fashion icon, to that situation, you get an exclusive line of products to enhance your personal and home décor with innovative designs from Kleenex Cool Touch to Kleenex Hand Towels to Kleenex Everyday Tissues.

A Season of Kleenex® Moments – a recap
Kleenex® is rolling out a series of exclusive new Isaac Mizrahi designs to their boxes, dispensers, and other forms of packaging you might reach for when in need of a tissue. Because when you need a tissue, shouldn't you be needing it in style? With that in mind, here's a look back at my top "Pass me a Kleenex" moments of Q1 in Gossip 2014…and that doesn't necessarily have to mean it's The Notebook. The emotions vary – from rage to euphoria to ecstasy. Here are mine: 1. Vin Diesel's Chinese New Year gift Pure happiness right here. Vin Diesel going "surfbort" all by himself, showing off his tongue and some, um, serious moves. I became a true fan for the very first time. Full Story
SEED Season 2 continues tonight on CITY (plus contest)
You know that agreement that some friends have where they promise each other that if they're "x age" and they still haven't hooked up with anyone than they'll marry each other and/or have kids? Do you know anyone who's actually done this? Or is this something that they would keep to themselves? Also, if you were a guy, could you father a friend's baby if you knew you wouldn't or couldn't raise it, but you knew that you'd see the kid on a regular basis? SEED at 9pm ET/PT on CITY. I wrote about SEED last year soon after Season 1 premiered on CITY. The show is a contemporary version of Friends crossed with Modern Family about Harry (Adam Korson), a sort of flaky bachelor whose past sperm donations catch up to him when the kids he was unaware he had sired begin entering his life (with their families).

Service Excellence – AMEX Canada Edition
A couple of weeks ago we featured the excellence that is Cate Blanchett in the first post that Amex Canada asked me to prepare about top performers. This time we focus on those who perform FOR the stars, providing excellence in service to them as they travel the world. One such place, right here in Toronto, hosted a very well-known celebrity who made his fortune in the music industry who needed to have his fruit flown fresh from California every morning and his bathrooms stocked with black toilet paper. I don't understand this. How do you know when you're done? Anyway, my point is he didn't even have to ask for his black paper – the concierge at the hotel already knew that that was what he required.

A Canadian taste of Glory
"Glory" is a great word. It glows off a page. It warms you up. To me, it's a better word for the sun than "sunshine". You can hear the roar of a crowd through "glory". For Canadians, "glory" feels like "The GOLDEN GOAALLLLL!" all over again. There's a memory attachment to "glory" that makes it distinguishable and different and totally awesome. Glory is also vitaminwater's latest, limited time flavour conceived by Canadians for Canadians in time for Canada's quest to repeat the glory of 2010. The flavour, name, and design were voted on by Canadians via vitaminwater's flavour creator contest and what they came up with is pure gold – a peach and mango marriage! Come on. Full Story

Wear any little dress you like with LivRelief Varicose Vein Cream
A very good friend of mine always wears hose. It could be sweltering outside, she's always in hose. Not because she's a British princess, but because she hates her legs. Specifically the veins on her legs. She's super self-conscious about them. She's been anxious about it her whole life. And I see her looking at people who step out in bare legs the same way I look at French fries, or chicken wings, or chocolate hedgehogs. It's more common among young people than you'd think, too. I always thought spider and varicose veins were "old people" problems. Jacek's friend had some painful surgeries to remove hers and she's only in her mid-30s. Enter LivRelief® and its rub-in, non-invasive application. It contains an active ingredient traditionally used as an astringent in herbal medicine to help treat varicose and spider veins. Full Story
Be Thankful for Homesense
Moving to Toronto turned me into a "house" person. I still don't watch home improvement and design shows, no, but I spend a lot more time thinking about "dressing" my kitchen, or my basement, or my bedroom, than I ever have before. Right now we don't have a dining room. We also realised this weekend, while hosting both our parents for Thanksgiving dinner, that we don't have serving spoons, you know, like to scoop potatoes or tongs to serve salad. We only recently discovered how great it is to have a bread board. Look at it. I'm weirdly obsessed with it. Isn't that a beautiful bread board? My first bread board is from Homesense Full Story
Oxygen presents Preachers of L.A.
Reality television has made stars out of Jersey punks, rich housewives, desperate teen moms, and now Men of God driving Ferraris. These are the Jay Zs of Sundays. Oxygen is presenting Preachers of L.A. on Wednesday, October 9th, a glimpse into the lives of six high-profile pastors from Los Angeles, exploring the off-pulpit side of these ambitious and very powerful men of faith. It's at once fascinating and abhorrent, the extra-ness of their tricked-out lifestyles. When most people think of "men of God" you imagine a modest life, getting by on only what's necessary. Oh no, not them. If you didn't know you were watching show about preachers, you'd think you were watching some big talking high roller, power agent, producer-types or Wall Street hot-shot. Full Story
Build a daily care and cleansing routine with Bioré®
We all have our routines. I've written often about how often I shower – pretty much every time I step out of the house and come home. It becomes particularly challenging when I travel overseas. With flight transfers etc, sometimes it's almost an entire day before I can get into a shower. You know what? "THANKS GOD" they invented wipes. Last time we discussed the first steps on a path to clean, healthy looking skin, and it involved dealing with the gunk and make-up that we subject our skin to every day. Bioré® Make-Up Removing Towelettes were part of that process, but facial care is an ongoing process. Full Story
Treat Yourself with a McCafé Iced Frappé
George Pimentel
They were calling for some kind of summer storm last night in Toronto. And our McCafé party was on the rooftop of the Thompson. But my ma, the Squawking Chicken, she waved it off like she always does. "No problem," she said. "But ma, the meteorologist is seeing rain." It's meteorology vs Feng Shui Fortune telling. Guess who won? It was a glorious evening. And it was my first evening out in 10 days as a resident of Toronto. I bailed on Jacek and the unpacking for a treat with McCafé 's Iced Frappes and a spectacular view. And no guilt. Because it's going to be 6 weeks straight of balls-out work. Our new talk show launches on September 2. Etalk is back from hiatus on Monday. And there's TIFF prep. And a major writing deadline due August 26. Full Story
