Deserve to take a look 12/26/2013SI from California
It is not an Oscar movie, but is definitely entertaining. Some reviews are very harsh, but judge for yourself, that is a popcorn movie that you may like.
Not the best. 4/19/2012
This movie wasn't that good to me. The special effects looked alright but I didn't care much for the story. I wasn't a fan of the Green Lantern before this movie and maybe that had something to do with me not liking it that much. Ryan Reynolds was a definite plus with his portrayal of Hal Jordan but just wasn't enough to keep me interested.

This a nice well fitting helmet. Its a full-facer that isnt a massive "Great Gazzo" bubble helmet. I wear them with goggles that seat nicely when worn over the helmet. I'm going to get a face-shield though or a pair of goggles that cover all my nose so stop getting rain-bit on that exposed portion of skin.
I was surprised by how light this helmet is. It's a good fit without a huge amount of padded lining which I like - don't feel so much like I'm hiding in a cage. Also bought the bubble shield (mirror) which does a good job. I'm protected, legal, but still get plenty of breeze. Great value and great item.
I'm 59 & been riding since a young kid, had several helmets. The Gringo helmet is by far the most comfortable, I ordered the flat shield & now don't have to use googles which is huge to me since I have glaucoma & very sensitive eyes. I'm so happy to find this helmet, it's light &cool with the old school look.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Gordon Parks who is recognized as one of the most important photographers of the 20th century.
While the Fort Scott, Kansas native is best known for his iconic images in Life magazine, Parks, the youngest of 15 children was also a novelist, co-founder of Essence Magazine and a successful filmmaker.
When he passed away in 2006, he was eulogized as a true Renaissance man who constantly pushed boundaries and broke stereotypes.
Over the weekend here in Kansas City, Gordon Parks Elementary School threw a centennial celebration to honor the trailblazing artist at the historic Gem Theater. And Parks' daughter, Toni Parks, flew in from London to join the musical salute to her late father.
At the Gem Theater, students from Gordon Parks Elementary performed the prologue of a new musical honoring the life of the school's gifted namesake. The world premiere will be next June and the school hopes to perform it every year.
While we remember Parks' photographs, he was an accomplished novelist and poet, and director of countless films, including the 1969 drama The Learning Tree which recounts his own experiences of racial discrimination growing up in rural Kansas.

Fly Rod Size on Bonefish Flats
Sorry for the late reply but work [yuck] has kept me off the boards.
Starting a new thread cuz the subject has changed.
Do you find it interesting that a lot of people think that rod size, 7 wt, vs. 10wt, is the limiting factor for landing big fish on the flats?
Im no expert, but it seems to me that the size of the rod is the least important variable in the equation, especially on the flats. The rod provides lifting power, not stopping power. On the flats, the rod is primarily a shock absorber, not a lever. A properly used 7wt will safely land a 10# plus bone in the shallows.
The key element of the fight is the drag capability of the reel. The drag must fight the fish until hes ready to turn. The drag lets you control the fish so you can get him in for a healthy release while hes still fresh. By drag, I mean both the mechanical system and the anglers palming skill.
A competent angler with a 7wt rod and high performance reel should be comfortable landing a big bonefish.
The real limit on rod size is wind. The rod provides power to throw the fly; the wind opposes the flys travel. The more wind and the bulkier the fly, then more rod is needed.
A calm day on the flats will allow you to land a big bone after a long cast in any direction. If its blowing 15/20 a 10 wt will allow at least a short cast upwind. After the hookup, it all a matter of drag.
What do you think?
Interesting topic and I tend to agree. The technique of bringing a fish to hand (or boat) in minimum amount of time is a function of both technique and equipment. For speedsters like bonefish and tunoids, a top notch drag is a major asset. Good technique will do more to avoid a prolonged fight than a powerful rod. This was explained to me a few years ago by Grant Hartman at Baja Anglers. The method of wearing down a big fish fast requires exerting maximum pressure on the tippet and this is achieved by literaly pointing the rod almost directly at the fish and pulling straight back. Once the rod is raised, the actual pressure on the tippet is drastically reduced. I know it sounds counterintuitive but thats the way they do it to marlin and sailfish down there. Grant has held some notable IGFA records including Roosterfish and Yellowfin tuna on 4lb tippets!
It takes practice to know just what 9 lbs of pressure feels like on a 10 lb tippet.
One way to figure it out and have some fun is having a friend hold a spring balance (or boga grip) to which you attach your leader. Peel of 20 or so yards of line and exert pressure through the rod. Tell your friend how much pressure you think your applying and have him tell you the actual result - you'll be very surprised! Try the direct pull and have him call out the readings as you approach breaking point - make sure your knots are perfect and wear eye protection just in case!

Rod Size
Agree with you on the perception. As long as the fishing is in the classic bonefish style (wide open spaces). But I do feel - key word "feel" - that when in tight quarters I have much better success "stopping" bones with my nine versus my eight. I guess this comes in part from my experience dragging Snook out from under lighted docks in the Tampa Bay area. I have snapped eight weight rods at the butt section when pinching the line and dragging the snook out from under docks.
I take identical brand seven, eight, and nine weight rods with me when I head down to the Bahamas. The major factor that I use to pick which rod to use is not so much wind, but fly size and flat type.
I am leaning more and more towards size 2 flies (or larger) tied Key's style which tend to be heavier, and bulkier. The eight weight will throw these no problem on an open flat as long as the wind is not over 12 mph.
If I am fishing a spring tide up in the Mangroves (see North Riding Point GB) I will go to the nine weight with a sixteen pound leader and 20 pound tippet. These fish rarely burn over 50 yards of line because once hooked,they head straight for the nearest mangrove field. You have to boil them like a snook to prevent them from getting back into the groves'- in this situation I alway's use the nine weight because I feel the exra back bone is required to horse the fish (hey - it's not the classic style but it is productive on certain tides)and I can definitely tell the difference between the eight and nine.
I still end up fishing the eight weight seventy percent of the time. As long as the flat is open with little obstruction and, as long as I can maintain the right angles I whip a bonefish every bit as quickly with the eight as with a nine or even 10 weight.
If I am blessed, and find myself on an ultra thin flat with no wind I will throw lighter unweighted flies and the seven is perfect (o.k., o.k., this happened once out of eighteen day's last year in the Bahamas). Just set the drag and and let em' run.
Of course all of this talk on rods brings up another point in regards to Bonefishing:the reel. Although, I own three of the topline brand reels manufactured here in Florida, sometimes I wonder why. When Bonefishing I set it on the lightest drag setting - and never have I had to use the "train stopping" cork drag to reign in a bonefish. Of course the do look nice sitting in the display case in my office in between trips.
I appreciate the conversation on this board - It has me out of my mind with anticipation for my April 17th Bimini Trip!
Fishing in Tight Spots
Very informative post.
Yep, bush fishing is a totally different story. I agree with you completely. Sometimes, brute force is required; even the anchor system needs attention.
Warning to all: going way off topic here.
Sunday, we were snook fishing in a little mangrove notch maybe 40 yards wide. The skiff was staked up in hard mud. Angie hooked the biggest snook of what turned to be her personal best day ( her total snook: 7 reds: 2 ) and applied all brakes to turn the fish. After the first turn she didnt make any headway from the bush. I looked away from the fish to see the pole had come out of the mud and we were being pulled into the mangroves. My bad! Time to start poling.
In the end, she landed the sweet 28 snook.
IMHO, casting into the constant wind is more of an issue than landing fish. But hey I'm just a rookie.
You USED to be a rookie .. after Abaco you sure ain't no rookie no more.
I certainly agree with you. If you can't get the fly to the fish all else is moot.

Business, economic and political leaders are attending the annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Photo: (Agence France-Presse/Getty Images)
By Gren Manuel
J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. CEO James Dimon, left, talks to Chairman of Swiss bank UBS Axel Weber during the World Economic Forum on Wednesday.
DAVOS, Switzerland—James Dimon of J.P. Morgan Chase was prepared in Davos to apologize for the more than $6 billion of trading losses racked up by the so-called London Whale, but he certainly wasn't prepared to abase himself.
As the head of a big bank who was in charge during the financial crisis and was at the first major session of the World Economic Forum on the global financial industry, he was an easy target.
Min Zhu, deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund, reeled off a string of statistics to show that the industry certainly hadn't cleaned up its act since the crisis, and Paul Singer, principal of hedge fund Elliott Associates, was also keen to lambaste big banks, including Mr. Dimon's.
The two had some testy exchanges and the body language indicated that Messrs. Singer and Dimon have exchanged fire quite a few times previously.
Still, Mr. Dimon gave us good as he got. He kicked off with repeating his apology to shareholders for the London Whale trading losses, which led to his own bonus being slashed, saying, "If you're a shareholder of mine, I apologize deeply."
Having offered this apology he then went on the offense. He pointed out that his bank lent money to a whole host of worthy organizations such as schools, hospitals, governments, and Italian and Spanish corporates and governments.
And he also had some snappy comebacks. Elliott's Singer said that the global banks are "too big, too leveraged, too opaque," which left Mr. Dimon with an easy retort about how could a hedge fund possibly criticize a bank about being opaque?
"Our [securities filing] 10K is 400 pages long," Mr. Dimon said. "What would you like to know?"
By the end of the exchange it was pretty clear that Mr. Dimon wasn't going to apologize for being the CEO of a big bank, and Mr. Singer seemed to back down a little, admitting that J.P. Morgan Chase was one of the most widely respected financial institutions in the world and admitting that, "It is not size that provides systemic risk, it's leverage, opacity, accounting standards."

After reading this article I was pretty impressed by the improved performance of Winchester's new Longbeard XR product. It appears to help hold the pattern together to aid in more lethal patterns at greater distance, always a plus in the turkey woods. Imagine how well HTL shot might perform with the same Shot-Lok? Yikes!
I'd be curious to hear a forum member's experiences with it.


text: On the beach: Starboard's Kode is available in three different constructions in 2011; WoodCarbon (tested), Wood and Technora and it comes in eight different sizes (68, 74, 80, 86, 94, 103, 113 and 123). The smaller, the more wave oriented, the bigger, the more freemove oriented. The 94 is almost smack in the middle of the range and is supposed to be a "Wave Freeestyle Machine". According to Starboard the board represents the optimal mix between power and perfect turning characteristics. The new shape for the 94 is characterized by a thin sideprofile, lowering the centre of gravity and increasing control over the board. The tail was thinned out a little more to create better turning characteristics, while additional volume was added to the rails, giving your back foot more control and making both blasting and the more difficult manoeuvres a comfortable affair. Similar to 2010, the Kode comes with a US-box 28cm crossover fin.

NORTH SMITHFIELD – The Town of North Smithfield will hold another "Community-Wide Yard Sale" to benefit the NS Food Pantry, on Saturday, May 18, 2013. This is the third year of this event but the first time a spring date is being added to the schedule.
According to Paulette Hamilton, Town Administrator, "residents can participate by holding an individual or multi-family yard sale at their homes, on May 18. When they register with Town Clerk, their location will be listed on the Town web site and in publicity, so that interested shoppers will have their location."
Residents who want to take part must go to the Clerk's office at the Town Annex at 575 Smithfield Road to obtain a yard sale permit for $5.00. Yard sale addresses will be listed for permits obtained before Noon on Friday, May 10, 2013.
Residents are encouraged to make a contribution to the town's Food Pantry at the same time. "More and more families are struggling and need our help" Hamilton stated. Donations can be made to "NS Food Pantry" to purchase food for summer months when donations typically decrease. "This is a great way for people to get spring cleaning done, to have fun and to support others as well". Last fall, there were over 30 yard sales held; the Town is hoping to increase that number this spring.
For more information, or to register your location, please contact Town Hall at 767-2200 ext. 301 or email@example.com.

Hi Ray! Great report!!!
Can you verify that there is talk of restricting or eliminating the parking area by the west wall. Thanks in advance.
[img]"http://castaflyri.tripod.com/albie "[/img]
Bill Krueger, PhD.retired fish scientist. (Can't spell ichthyologist) doing the Bull Dance.... feel'in the flow.
Just think Greg.... you're up next in two weeks.:
Drool, Drool, Drool, ...
Thanks for the Post Ray!
West Wall RI
To all you would be wanatbee Rhody Claver's
Sunday was a perfect day for west waller's. The tide crested at 7:11 am., with a sunrise at 6:25. Tunnies tend to appear and get active an hour after sun rise. A dropping tide was right. All the ingredients for a successful day.
There had to be 50 rodders lining the wall with their dish pans. Most of them spread out in the middle section of the wall. All facing west in their annual pilgrimage to honor the fish gods and catch a few missiles. As the tide started to recede, the place went "electric." False albacore started to appear breaking the surface tension of the gently lapping waves. At first the action started in the inward section of the wall. Then in a domino type fashion, the next angler ocean side, would have his chances. The entire wall had front row seats. The false albacore make their encore and kept on going and going like the Everready Bunny. As one angler put it, "Like a Sean Sully punch line of a joke that gets told again and again."
To catch a tuniod from shore is not an easy feat. Many of us know the statistics. A great amount of time, skill and luck plays a part, even if you still use a Capt. Ray Angel Hair Fly. But for some reason, Sunday seemed blessed. Perhaps in the after math of last week's tragedies, we were given a break. Catching an albie seemed just too easy for a change. There were a lot of fisherman who forefilled their dream that day. I'm sure the memoires will be lasting, just like so many from last week. The tide was high making it easy to get your cast into the brine. Also for retrieving and releasing fish. No one seem to go home without a thrill. My client caught his first one also.
On the return trip (by boat), going through the breakwall at Galilee, I noticed all the cars parked on the Jerusalem side of the wall. I had thought to my self, how lucky we are, we don't have the same parking conditions like Chatham. I thought of the striblue's and the Juro's of the world who have a hard time accessing their favorite fishing locations. Other people with limitations. But most of all, the images of others in this society, I just could not shake.
The next three weeks should be prime time along the southern coast of RI. Food for thought in choosing a clave date.

The Seasonal Palate
Metropolitan food truck parks in Placitas
By Ari LeVaux
Sergio Salvador salvadorphoto.com
Like many culinary school graduates (Seattle Culinary Institute, class of '99), Chef Kimberley Calvo wanted her own restaurant. But Calvo realized it was a bad idea. "The more I looked into what it entails in terms of money and financial backing, it wasn't feasible in this economy," she says.
Sergio Salvador salvadorphoto.com
So she invested in leasing a food truck instead. The Seasonal Palate, as it's been christened, usually sets up on Hwy. 165 in her home town of Placitas, about a mile up from I-25. With a dramatic angle on the Sandia Mountains as a backdrop and a steady stream of commuters passing by, she's developing a niche for her revolving menu of victuals, many of which are made from local and organic ingredients. And if business is slow, or if there's an opportunity in Albuquerque or elsewhere, then away she goes.
Sergio Salvador salvadorphoto.com
Food truckers are the gypsies of the food business, but beyond the obvious similarities in gear, it's tough to generalize them. Some are quite territorial and will grumble, or worse, if another food truck sets up too close. Calvo associates with a group of trucks that shares a common chunk of ground every Wednesday at the Talin Market parking lot, where a weekly food truck pod holds court from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Many of these trucks have what she calls a "gentlemen's agreement" to not overlap their menu offerings. These trucks also follow each other on Twitter, retweeting each others' location and specials.
Calvo's menu changes frequently, which makes giving recommendations a tricky task. While she usually has a slider entrée, it might be a buffalo burger or a short rib. The po'boy could be shrimp or oyster. But if her Thai green curry is on the menu, get it, no matter what the featured ingredient is. Spicy, and with sweet peppers as well—a brilliant combo—the curry dish I tried had tender beef leftover from the previous night's flat iron sliders.

Another dish worth trying if it's available is the Asian chicken salad. This is not your grandma's half-mayo chicken salad (not that there's anything wrong with mayo). A mix of organic chopped romaine and salad mix is topped with edamame, carrots, cucumbers, and slices of chicken thigh that have been marinated in sambal, soy sauce and maple syrup. The marinade makes the chicken taste like duck.
Before moving to New Mexico, Calvo worked at Café Flora in Seattle, renowned for its vegetarian cuisine. Perhaps that's why her falafel shines as brightly as it does, with East Mountain feta, housemade tzatziki and organic romaine hearts supporting the sturdy, coarse-grained falafel balls. But it might have been upstaged by the french fries it came with. Thin-cut and seasoned with an undisclosed spice mix, the fries are crispy with a clean flavor that Calvo credits to frequent changes of oil (a peanut-vegetable oil blend).
In my tenure at the Alibi, I've reviewed several restaurants that went under despite serving awesome food. It's an incredibly tough business, and even in a great economy it takes a special breed of person to open a restaurant—the kind of person who likes banging his or her head against a wall. But the same economic realities that can drag down a brick-and-mortar restaurant are what help a good food truck succeed: You get better food for your dollar because you aren't paying for overhead, service or tablecloths. For entrepreneurs who like to cook, this can make all the difference.
"In a few years I'll own my food truck," Calvo told me. "That wasn't going to happen in a restaurant."

IDAHO UPDATE .... Another Weekend - and a BIG BUST.[:@]
We hunted East of Idaho City, ID both Saturday and Sunday (5/3-4) - Hard, putting many miles trudging up and down through 700' of elevation change - I heard not a single cluck, putt or gobble. Where have the birds gone?
Prior to last weekend, we have heard as many as five Toms in a single day in our hunt area. We have seen hens - I spooked a Jake. Where have they gone? Do the move up as the snow mooves up?
I do not think we called too much and we believe we are the only hunters working the area (only our tracks to be seen.)
Saturday was overcast but temps climbed to 60 from the low 30's. The air was VERY smokey due to a prescribed burn some 5-10 mile from where we hunt - Could that move the birds? (I doubt it as we jumped a deer.) The smoke blew out as breezes during the day progressed. Sunday started cold (26F) but warmed to 60+ and was crystal clear and still. My Daughter heard on bird - more than a mile off below us.
It did get windy earlier in the week - up to 35MPH gusts so we worked draws on creek bottoms bu saw no sign.
I spoke with many of the locals - They said Turkey numbers are WAY down, one said he usually would see 75-100 a day through past winters - this year the most he saw at one time was 14.
I spoke to local USFS Rangers, both from the Hunt unit and from the National forest offices. They are not seeing birds - or hearing of sitings this year.
I spoke to a Idaho Fish and Game Wildlife Biologist - He believes our winter was too harsh on them this year - siting a similar winter several years back. THERE IS STILL SNOW ON NORTH SLOPES TO 2+ FEET AS OF THIS PAST WEEKEND. In years past the snow is gone in March.
He also stated he has been hearing similar low turkey sitings from other hunters.
I asked if the wet weather last spring could have resulted in low poult survival rates, weather preditors could be responsible (lots of Wolf signs and typical coyote bobcat track sitings.) The Biologist feels that non of these factors compare to harsh winter and we had lots of snow this year.

You seem to be making a case against wood as a material, and that can be assumed to be a case against heavier boards. Weight is just another design parameter,and it isn't the case that lighter is always better as we have been told for the past half a century.
On my last board, the 13-9 Dragon, my standard paulownia construction would have made the board at 35 pounds. I deliberately brought it up to 48 pounds and have previously ridden the same shape at 70 pounds.
The designs I use are able to take advantage of greater weight if desired. Mainstream 'Malibu' derived longboards are limited in that regard as they are very weight sensitive due to their unbalanced turning position.

Practically Speaking
Kyle and her husband moved to Brookfield in 1986. She became active in local politics and started blogging in 2004. Her focus is primarily on local issues but often includes state and national topics, too. Kyle looks at things from the taxpayers' perspective in a creative, yet down to earth way, addressing them from a practical point of view.
For me, it's Hovde, Fitzgerald, Neumann, Thompson, in that order
Way back in October of 2011, Rep. Jeff Fitzgerald announced he was running for U.S. Senate. At that time, he was my likely pick over Tommy Thompson or Mark Neumann. I didn't want Thompson when he was toying with running in 2010. (Thank Goodness we had Ron Johnson step into that race.) I'm still not liking Thompson in this 2012 race, for the same reasons: he's not all that conservative, he was a big spender, and he is too old. Thankfully, Eric Hovde, the newest candidate to enter the 2012 race to fill Herb Kohl's vacant seat, is pulling ahead.
I have liked Eric Hovde ever since I heard him interviewed on Mark Belling's radio show some months ago. Hovde talked about how he was conservative, even in his college years. He mentioned how he was required to give 2 speeches for one of his classes and he chose to do both, extolling Reagan's policies. And that was in Madison! (Hovde's father worked for the Regan administration.)
I thought, there aren't many college students who are conservative (people tend to grow more conservative with time), much less at the University of Wisconsin - Madison! That indicated to me he was able to stand up for his convictions, which is an important quality in a U.S. Senator. His ads are hitting a lot of the issues important to me.
Needless to say, any one of the 4 in the running would be a vast improvement over what we had in Kohl and certainly over Tammy Baldwin.
So I am still deciding, but I think Eric Hovde will get my vote. Seems other people are thinking that too since he is giving Thompson a run for his money now.
Wisconsin's Primary is August 14th. The winner will go on to face Democrat Tammy Baldwin in November.

NIJ has provided funding to develop databases that will help researchers analyze terrorist incidents around the globe and terrorism-related indictments in the U.S.
Terrorist Indictments: The American Terrorism Study. Since 1988, NIJ has supported a research team that has worked closely with the FBI to collect information on indictments from closed terrorism investigations. The work has resulted in a dataset that includes information on nearly 500 terrorists from about 60 terrorist groups indicted for more than 6,700 Federal criminal counts. NIJ has supported the data collection and analysis portion of the research, a portion of which has compared international jihad groups with domestic right-wing groups, and showed attempts by domestic terrorists to forge alliances with international jihadist groups
Learn more about this project in Crimes Committed by Terrorist Groups: Theory, Research, and Prevention.
In 2006, the American Terrorism Study began exploratory analysis of the behavioral, geographic, and temporal patterns of preparatory acts to support terrorist events. Researchers found that terrorists typically began preparing about three to four months before the planned terrorist incident. The most common preparatory behaviors included meetings, phone calls, the purchase of supplies and materials, and banking activities, which included everything from bank robbery to fund the planned incident to legitimate account withdrawals.
Learn more about this project in Pre-Incident Indicators of Terrorist Incidents: The Identification of Behavioral, Geographic, and Temporal Patterns of Preparatory Conduct.
Inventory and Assessment of Databases Relevant for Social Science Research on Terrorism. (Library of Congress)Describes and assesses Internet-accessible databases relevant for social science research on terrorism, specifically those Web sites that provide actual data, e.g., names of terrorist organizations, incidents of terrorist activity, and those with search capabilities. The sites are maintained primarily by U.S. Government agencies, non-U.S. research centers, and international organizations.
Review the results in Inventory and Assessment of Databases Relevant for Social Science Research on Terrorism (pdf, 23 pages).
Pre-Incident Indicators of Terrorist Activities. (University of Arkansas)Studies the relationship between preparatory and ancillary behaviors, both criminal and noncriminal, of terrorist group members and the terrorist acts they eventually plan or carry out. The goal of the study was to identify patterns of conduct that might lead to intervention prior to the commission of actual terrorist incidents.
Learn more about this project in Pre-Incident Indicators of Terrorist Activities (pdf, 540 pages).
The Impact of Economic, Political, and Social Variables on the Incidence of World Terrorism. (University of Maryland) Analyzes the Pinkerton Corporation's Global Intelligence Service database, which includes every threatened or actual case of domestic or international terrorism in the world from 1970 to 1997. The dataset contains information on 74,000 terrorist events - about ten times more events than the other publicly available datasets on terrorism. The project will conduct extensive comparative analysis between the Pinkerton data and other major publicly available quantitative terrorism databases (e.g., RAND, ITERATE, U.S. State Department) and assess patterns over time.
Geospatial Analysis of Terrorist Activities: The Identification of Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Preparatory Behavior of International and Environmental Terrorists. (University of Arkansas)Previous work now provides a relational dataset that includes detailed information about the terrorist incident as well as preparatory acts or crimes, detailed offender information, and information on associated terrorist groups. The goal of the project is to divulge spatial and temporal patterns of terrorist activities that will enable law enforcement personnel to detect, disrupt, and prevent terrorist acts.
Building a Global Terrorism Database. (University of Maryland)With the recent computerization of the original Pinkerton Global Intelligence Service (PGIS) data, a new dataset exists for the analysis of global terrorist incidents. However, the PGIS ended data collection in 1997, exactly the same time that the RAND Corporation began collecting worldwide terrorist incident data. This project brought together researchers from the University of Maryland and the RAND Corporation to produce a geocoded, integrated terrorist event database, stretching from 1970 to the future. It is by far the most extensive and empirically defensible terrorist event database of this type ever assembled.
Learn more about this project in Building a Global Terrorism Database (pdf, 209 pages).
Terrorism in Time and Space: The Inclusion of Spatio-Temporal Data From Federal Terrorism Cases Into the ATS Database. (University of Arkansas)Researchers will collect 265 temporal and spatial variables on each of the approximately 700 terrorism cases officially investigated by the FBI under the AG Guidelines for Terrorism Investigations for the period 1980-2004 to enhance the ATS database. The resultant database will accommodate a wide array of statistical and geospatial methods of analysis.

5.71: Electric Circuits
Jose made this sketch of a battery and light bulb for science class. If this were a real set up, the light bulb wouldn't work. The problem is the loose wire on the left. It must be connected to the positive terminal of the battery in order for the bulb to light up.
Q: Why does the light bulb need to be connected to both battery terminals?
A: Electric current can flow through a wire only if it forms a closed loop. Charges must have an unbroken path to follow between the positively and negatively charged parts of the voltage source, in this case, the battery.
Electric Circuit Basics
A closed loop through which current can flow is called an electric circuit. In homes in the U.S., most electric circuits have a voltage of 120 volts. The amount of current (amps) a circuit carries depends on the number and power of electrical devices connected to the circuit. Home circuits generally have a safe upper limit of about 20 or 30 amps.
Parts of an Electric Circuit
All electric circuits have at least two parts: a voltage source and a conductor. They may have other parts as well, such as light bulbs and switches, as in the simple circuit seen in the Figure below. To see an animation of a circuit like this one, go to: http://www.rkm.com.au/animations/animation-electrical-circuit.html
- The voltage source of this simple circuit is a battery. In a home circuit, the source of voltage is an electric power plant, which may supply electric current to many homes and businesses in a community or even to many communities.
- The conductor in most circuits consists of one or more wires. The conductor must form a closed loop from the source of voltage and back again. In the circuit above, the wires are connected to both terminals of the battery, so they form a closed loop.
- Most circuits have devices such as light bulbs that convert electrical energy to other forms of energy. In the case of a light bulb, electrical energy is converted to light and thermal energy.
- Many circuits have switches to control the flow of current. When the switch is turned on, the circuit is closed and current can flow through it. When the switch is turned off, the circuit is open and current cannot flow through it.
Circuit Diagrams
When a contractor builds a new home, she uses a set of plans called blueprints that show her how to build the house. The blueprints include circuit diagrams. The diagrams show how the wiring and other electrical components are to be installed in order to supply current to appliances, lights, and other electric devices. You can see an example of a very simple circuit in the Figure below. Different parts of the circuit are represented by standard circuit symbols. An ammeter measures the flow of current through the circuit, and a voltmeter measures the voltage. A resistor is any device that converts some of the electricity to other forms of energy. For example, a resistor might be a light bulb or doorbell.
The circuit diagram on the right represents the circuit drawing on the left. Below are some of the standard symbols used in circuit diagrams.
Q: Only one of the circuit symbols above must be included in every circuit. Which symbol is it?
A: The battery symbol (or a symbol for some other voltage source) must be included in every circuit. Without a source of voltage, there is no electric current.
- An electric circuit is a closed loop through which current can flow.
- All electric circuits must have a voltage source, such as a battery, and a conductor, which is usually wire. They may have one or more electric devices as well.
- An electric circuit can be represented by a circuit diagram, which uses standard symbols to represent the parts of the circuit.
- electric circuit: Closed loop through which current can flow.
Take the electric circuit quiz at the following URL. Be sure to have your answers corrected. Try the quiz again if any of your answers are incorrect. http://www.myschoolhouse.com/courses/O/1/68.asp

- Which two parts must all electric circuits contain?
- Sketch a simple circuit that includes a battery, switch, and light bulb. Then make a circuit diagram to represent your circuit, using standard circuit symbols.

We begin this week with a question: Which is the largest institution of higher education in our bi-state area? Is it KU or MU? You might be surprised to learn that it's actually neither.
With more than 50,000 students enrolled in credit and continuing education classes each semester, Johnson County Community College is now the largest institution of higher education in either Kansas or Missouri.
And after 5 years at the helm, JCCC's President Terry Calaway has announced he is retiring. Along with increased enrollment, Calaway is credited with bringing a lot of novel programs to JCCC which is consistently ranked as one of the best community colleges in the country.
People no doubt have heard about the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art which was added during his watch, but the college is also getting national attention for its culinary program which will open its own culinary academy and innovative demonstration kitchen next year. Dr Calaway sat down for a conversation with Nick Haines.

In fact the senior Dem Senator is a former member. George Wallace, Lester Maddox and Orville Faubus were all Democrats.

"Leaders aren't born they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal" – Vince Lombardi
Every Coach I have ever met wants his team to win. When I was a Flag Football coach, even though they technically did not keep score.. I wanted the kids on the team to win.. Winning feels good and winning typically means that you were the better team that day. Better skills, better leadership, better coaching, better condition.
When the whistle blows for the opening kick off.. the coach stands on the side line and watches as his team succeeds or fails. As the players come and go from the side line to the playing field he offers up advise, he coaches them on a specific part of the game, and he encourages them to go out there and win.
My frustrated Dad from the previous post reads the blog as I have come to find out via an email. Which is great, because as he reads the content, maybe he will gain a better understanding of what it is that we are trying to accomplish here in Scouting. I have already responded to him, but as I thought about how to best explain what it is that we Scoutmasters do.. well the Football coach analogy just would not leave me alone.
A coach does not go out and make tackles.. he coaches on proper technique. He never throws a touchdown pass.. but he teaches the Quarterback on proper release. The coach has assistant coaches too.. and they teach and coach their specific parts of the team. They encourage their players to get better, stronger, faster, and more skilled. Well such is the role of the Scoutmaster and his assistants. They develop leadership in the Scouts and encourage them to do their best. They step in when needed, but rely on the players (Scouts) to make the play or complete the task.
Standing on the side lines.. or in the back of the meeting hall, the Scoutmaster can observe his Troop winning or learning. We don't really lose. Every failure comes with a learning point or as I call it in our Troop, our take home point.
What the Scoutmaster does is provide opportunities. He mentors the Senior Patrol leader to a position that he now can do it alone. The Scoutmaster is never too far away and provides confidence in the young man that he can and will accomplish any task he sets his mind to. This is a great lesson in life.
I love the coach analogy. It fits well when you want a Scout to go out there and play the game with a purpose.
And as for the frustrated Dad.. he will get it. I am sure of that.
And hey.. thanks to Larry for the great comment on the last post. Right on!
"If it doesn't matter who wins or loses, then why do they keep score?" – Vince Lombardi
Have a Great Scouting Day!

Nice tweak,my iPhone 4 came with the yellow screen now I can adjust myself
I use f.lux on my iMac, and I used it with my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 when they were jailbroken...and I loved it. I actually never even see this tweak/app in Cydia and I'm glad you guys posted it here. Looks like a really cool way to make the screen easier to read in low-light conditions at any given time.
This is probably one of the tweaks I'm most excited for, for when the 4s jailbreak comes out so I can fix the ugly yellow tint. I don't know if it's worth $2 though...
i wish we could just make the black black and not dark grey

It coke took the MrCarton formula, tested it, and saw it was a 100% copy of their formula, they couldn't prosecute that?
We need some more info to properly answer this question.
How did MrCarton obtain this formula? Legal means? Broke into coke's vault? Coercion?
It's not any type of theft.
It exists outside any particular person's belief in whether it exists or not
If criminal/civil litigation is too burdensome to viably pursue, then the property rights cease to effectively exist.
We will see you all at "gun control field" in the next thread.
What if a guy ran a message board that allowed people to use copyrighted images as avatars and sig pics and made money on advertisements. Is that ok?
If I want something to remain secret, I should take measures to keep it secretive. Has nothing to do with "intellectual property".
it still comes with a license though...
Being wrong is not simply the issue. The issue is: is this wrong in Sweden. According to this thread the answer is no.
If I give an interview to fox news for $500 and CNN quotes my interview in another article I should get royalties right? I mean, i didn't sell my quote to CNN subscribers, I have a right to sell the same information to them that I did to fox news right? Even if I made it public information, it is MY intellectual property until I sell the rights to each person on earth.
What is the difference between downloading songs/movies off the internet and using a tape and boombox 20 years ago to download songs off the radio?
Why would the boombox companies allow you copy off the radio? Wouldn't that be like the boombox is your computer and the radio station is the host? Was it illegal then and no one knew it? Or is it just easier now for the industries to track it and now making a big deal and trying to profit from it?
Agree to disagree, an algorithm is information. This information is built upon itself to create a complex mathematical equation, but an algorithm is not a singular unit.
that's basically the deal when they ask for protection. If they really want to keep it private, a trade secret strategy is more appropriate. Kind of like Coke's formulas
hey everyone, I'm listening to Spotify free right now. it's perfectly legal. I don't pay a penny for it in actual cash.
Why am I not pirating instead?
If I broke into the coca cola headquarters and mission impossibleded into the safe which stores the formula, then I would have broken so many other pertinent and enforceable laws that the discussion of the formula would only be important as to determine what the civil damages would be.
If i published said formula via a torrent, whoever downloaded it and made their own collegeFBRules cola (I would buy BTW) would be using public information to do so. You cannot feasibly enforce a law against that, even if you feel it is morally wrong.

My wife had outpatient surgery recently, which involved a nerve block in one shoulder, deadening her arm for the rest of the day. Surprisingly (to me) that was plenty of time to develop phantom limb syndrome, where it feels like there's an invisible arm in place of the real one, that you can't control, and that gets agonizingly knotted and cramped. Vilayanur Ramachandran invented the "mirror box" treatment, where a mirror is held vertically in front of you, perpendicular to your body and between your resting hands. Your good hand is visible only in the mirror, so its image looks like it is the other hand, and that is enough to allow you to control the phantom limb. It worked.
32-bit Firefox 8 running under 64-bit Linux still crashes when left unattended for a couple of days. Running it under gdb, it usually segfaults in an out-of-memory handler while chasing cycles in the Javascript garbage collector.
Running firefox under gdb takes a few steps. You will need the debug symbols, e.g "apt-get install iceweasel-dbg". In gdb,
(gdb) file /usr/lib/iceweasel/firefox-bin
(gdb) handle SIGPIPE noprint nostop
(gdb) maint info sections
(gdb) add-symbol-file /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/iceweasel/components/libbrowsercomps.so 0x8049480
(gdb) run
The number 0x8049480 above is the first number in the line of output from "main info sections" that contains ".text", and varies from one build to the next.
