-- Head of the American Family Association of Indiana
-- Used biblical passage about it being "better to have a millstone tied around your neck and thrown in the sea" in reference to the Boy Scouts accepting gay youth: "What did Christ say about harming the least of these? He said it would be better to have a millstone tied around your neck and be thrown in the sea on the day of judgement than to cause a child to stumble into sin. And if we're going to support organizations telling kids that homosexuality is okay—which is treatable, changeable, you don't have to be homosexual, but if you are, you are at significiantly higher risks of mental harm, pshycial harm, emotional harmm and spiritual harm—we cant be a part of that. (Source; starts around 2:00 mark)
-- An advocate of so-called "ex-gay" therapy, claims "[t]here are scores of organizations across America that help people overcome same-sex attraction disorder and gender identity confusion; his organization promotes three different groups geared toward "changing" gay people
-- Compared a license plate benefitting an LGBT youth center to a plate promoting smoking; claimed the youth center "recruits" gays: "You have to question what the BMV was thinking when they approved a license plate for a group which recruits teens into the homosexual lifestyle. Since health risks do not seem to matter, what is to prevent a cigar club from now getting a license plate from the BMV?"
-- Claims that "homosexuality has no societal benefit...and its individually destructive and dangerous." (*specific quote found at comment labeled "February 07, 2009 at 09:32 AM;" general idea is repeated throughout thread)
-- Publicly raged against a lesbian student who felt more comfortable wearing a tuxedo to her high school prom, claiming her choice was both a "sexual statement" and "destructive"
-- Claimed a political party's support for marriage equality was really "calling for the unraveling of marriage " and was an attempt to "official undermine the family"
-- Chastised media for reporting on openly gay NBA player Jason Collins, putting Collins in the same category as "musicians who run afoul of the law or father multiple children out of wedlock": "It is a strange world we live in when we elevate athletes who deviate from natural norms, we heap fame on musicians who run afoul of the law or father multiple children out of wedlock and turn our backs on those of honorable behavior like Tim Teabow [sic]. We mock or even attack anyone who stands for traditional values. All the while, we continue to wonder why we have so many social problems."
-- In crude blog post subtitled "dude looks like a lady," says a transgender woman who competed in a beauty pageant has "surgically disfigured himself"

The first BCS Poll is out, Bama #1 and Florida #2.
"All those things bother me: The populism, the lying and the scapegoating and the xenophobia bother me, but then theres a layer of incompetence here. I suppose, in a way, we should be thankful: If he had a coherent ideology, hed probably be more dangerous." P J O'Rourke
son you may be too young to know this but dustin d is correct. if notre dame ends its season undefeated there is not a computer program, strength of schedule ranking, usa poll, coaches poll or anything else that will keep them irish out of the championship game. hell they have been ranked in the pre season top 25 every year forever regardless of their situation. if they ever win two games consecutively whamo, back in the top ten! oregon could beat usc by 100 and win the pac ten, florida could win out and win the sec champ game and if nd finished undefeated someone else gets left out.....not the irish.....not in my considerable lifetime!
now let's just say in the highly unlikely event that:
1) bama pulls off an incredible five game sec win streak and beats the east in the sec championship game.
2) notre dame wins out, with wins over usc and oklahoma and finishes undefeated.
you think in your wildest dreams that the bcs aint gonna find a way to leave some deserving undefeated team(sorry /paul) in the rose bowl to create, "THE BIGGEST DANG GAME IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL HISTORY"!
and btw, if you think you can beat them irish in a close game.........forget it. if you think you can get a call in a close one........forget it! just ask stanford after saturday!
john mccallie
What'd everyone think of the weekend? I thought my Tide looked ok, doing what they do to opponents. It appears they need to work a little on the mental game and special team coverage.
Overall there was some good games. LSU looked more like LSU this week. Auburn continued the trend they're on.
So LSU fans, is this the excitement y'all expected out of ole mett? Of course the o line has played into his ability a little, but they're doing exactly as i thought and are a good team as i've said plenty of times. I just remember having this debate ( http://www.retrievertraining.net/for...Y!!!-GDG/page3 ) with a few of y'all of what i expected out of lsu game plan with ole mett vs others perspective. I don't know why y'all cant accept a "game manager" as a QB. We've won 2 of the last 3 Ships with a "game manager" type game plan lol
Both Texas and Notre Dame got a VERY nice hand from the refs to seal the deal on a close one. Both were as plain as day upon review on every TV Replay in America....cough cough I mean 'Not enough evidence to overturn' *Rollseyes*
After getting completely Raped by OU this weekend, all Talking Heads are no longer talking about Texas. Game over for them and Mack Browns head might be on the chopping block *Sooner* than expected.
If the Irish win out over BYU, OU, USC etc, Heck I'd say they deserve it over a one loss SEC. That would be wins over 5 ranked opponents from 3 different Major Conferences.
I think the Ducks better keep taking it one day at a time. They face an uphill battle from here on out. It's win out or go home for them and their Nemesis is quietly sitting @ #8 right now.
It's that time of year though, every weekend will push numbers around as dreams are made and shattered every Saturday.
Roseberry, Luckily i don't remember the reign of ND being only 24 yro. I do hear alot of stories from dad and grandpa of how much they've hated ND over the years. It's apparant the media and people that be want ND back in the spotlight, ND def gets the attention year in and year out for as long as i've been following CFB. I guess it's just hopeless thinking on my part that with 3 undefeated teams ND would be left out. The tie breaker would be two key words. NOTRE DAME.
Now that we're on the ND kick, i do shed a tear or two watching Rudy. Him sacking that GT QB and getting carried off the field, just a feel good story!

I am a fan of the Ask Andy column at the US Scouting Service Project. Andy's no nonsense, straight answers are just up my ally.
My son's in a high-achieving troop, with five to eight Eagles a year, great leaders, great program, huge fund-raising successes, friendly parents, and no complainers. He's about to go on his third campout with the troop. In the first two, everyone cooked together—Scouts and parents. The very first one was a Webelos-as-guests, plus "electronics." The second was a new Scout weekend. For these first two, it looked like the parents pretty much did all the cooking. When I asked who's buying food for the adult leaders, for this third campout, I learned that the adults "scavenge" off the patrols that their sons are in. This is a new one on. What do you think? I'm really pretty unsure. (Bob White)
Here's the deal about Boy Scouts and the out-of-doors: Boy Scouts hike and camp as Boy Scouts. This is not "Webelos III Family Camping." Boys of this age need to grow, and to form peer relationships, to individuate themselves, and to gain a sense of competence and independence. This absolutely cannot occur in a "family camping" environment.
If parents come along, they should be camping separately from the Scouts–literally out of sight and out of ear-shot. If they cook, they cook for themselves, with their own food. They don't "mooch" from the Scouts, or cook for them, or have any interactions with them. The Scouts and their Scoutmaster and an assistant (may be an ASM, a parent, or a committee member) are together, but any "extra" parents should be making themselves invisible.
A "Jamboree Troop" is a "model troop," from which we can draw lessons. There are four patrols of eight, one Senior Patrol Leader, perhaps one or two ASPLs, and four adults: Scoutmaster and three ASMs. That's it. Patrols cook and clean up for themselves, lead themselves, plan for themselves, and carry out daily activities for themselves. The four adults aren't the "leaders," they're the wallpaper, or safety-nets, if you will. All troops need to be organized in this general fashion.
Parents stay away. They pitch their tents away from the Scouts and do whatever they do during the day away from the Scouts. This is not a "Dad n' Lad" activity–That went the way of the buggy whips of Cub Scouting, and should no longer be present.
Any troop that doesn't do it this way is ultimately crippling their Scouts by keeping them subservient and "small." Boy Scouting cuts those apron-strings, and keeps 'em cut.
How "separate" should any accompanying parents be from their sons, while camping? (BW)
How separate? How's this: If the Scouts and the parents don't see one another from dawn till after dinner, that would be just about right. Boys and young men of Boy Scout age need to assert their independence and their reliance on one another without Dad and Mom "hovering."

Ecological Gifts Program
Canada's Ecological Gifts Program provides a way for Canadians with ecologically sensitive land to protect nature and leave a legacy for future generations. Made possible by the terms of the Income Tax Act of Canada and the Taxation Act in Quebec, it offers significant tax benefits to landowners who donate land or a partial interest in land to a qualified recipient. Recipients ensure that the land's biodiversity and environmental heritage are conserved in perpetuity.
The Ecological Gifts Program is administered by Environment and Climate Change Canada in cooperation with dozens of partners, including other federal departments, provincial and municipal governments, and environmental non-government organizations. Thanks to this team approach and a dedication to continuously evolving and improving, the Program has become more successful each year.
Between the inception of the program in 1995 and October 31 2016, 1260 ecological gifts valued at over $807 million have been donated across Canada, protecting over 180,000 hectares of wildlife habitat. Many of these ecological gifts contain areas designated as being of national or provincial significance, and many are home to some of Canada's species at risk.

By Bobby Harrison/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – The Legislature continues to work toward hammering out an aggressive package of education proposals, ranging from a stronger charter school law to enhancing safety standards in the classrooms to requiring students by third grade to read on grade level.
The Legislature also is looking to fund a pre-kindergarten program for the first time in the state's history and at increasing academic standards for teachers.
Today is the deadline for original action by one chamber on legislation that has passed the other chamber.
At this point in the process, most of the key education proposals made by Republican Gov. Phil Bryant and other members of the Republican leadership of the House and the Senate are alive with the exception of appointed superintendents. That proposal will have to be revived by Thursday to remain alive in the process after it was defeated Monday afternoon by the House.
On Tuesday afternoon, the Senate passed legislation the leadership had amended to include several of the education proposals into one package, including charter schools, the third grade reading component and the enhanced standards for teachers.
"I think this is an effort on part of this body….to improve education," said Senate Education Chair Gray Tollison, R-Oxford. "Some good things are happening across the state, but not enough. We have to close the achievement gap."
No doubt, the most controversial part of the package was the charter school component, which would allow public funds to be spent to create public schools that would not have to adhere to many of the rules and governance of traditional public schools.
Students could cross district lines to attend the charter schools that would sign a contract with the state agreeing to meet certain guidelines.
The vote Tuesday on the legislation, which has the strong backing of Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, was closer than when the Senate took up charter schools earlier in the session.
Earlier in the session, charter school legislation passed the Senate 31-17, but on Tuesday the omnibus bill, which included charter schools and the other proposals, passed by a much slimmer 28-23 margin. Three members of Reeves Republican majority voted no on the proposal even though it was less far-reaching than the charter proposal passed by the Senate earlier in the session.
At this point, the Senate leadership is trying reach compromise with the House, where support for charter schools is more tepid.
In an effort to reach a compromise with the House, the proposal passed by the Senate Tuesday would give school boards in C performing school districts the authority to veto the location of a charter school within their boundaries until July 1, 2016. The original Senate bill just gave A and B districts veto authority. Plus, the new Senate proposal would limit the number of new charter schools to 15 per year while the original Senate bill contained no limits.
Sen. Hob Bryan, D-Amory, argued that charter schools would weaken traditional public schools, which already are struggling because of being underfunded under the Mississippi Adequate Education Program formula by $1 billion since the national recession hit in 2008. He said if charter schools are a good idea, he said, why not select a charter organization to run an entire district instead of siphoning off the top-performing students from traditional public schools.
"Have a charter school take over a district under conservatorship," Bryan said. "They will not do it."
The House could take up a charter school proposal today. Or at this point, the House leadership could opt to wait for the latest Senate proposal, which passed Tuesday, and invite negotiations or approve the proposal and send it to the governor.
The House passed legislation Tuesday to keep alive Rep. Lester "Bubba" Carpenter proposal to allow school districts to arm employees. The Senate position is to provide matching funds to help local districts hire certified law enforcement personnel to provide security. Carpenter, R-Burnsville, argued some districts could not afford the expense.
At this point, it appears that issue, like many other education proposals before the Legislature this session, will end up in conference where leaders from the two chambers will try to hammer out a compromise.
Two other blls that appear heading to conference are proposals to merge the Clay County and West Point school districts and the Oktibbeha County District with Starkville. In both proposals now, local commissions would be formed to work on the consolidation.
Votes Tuesday of Northeast Mississippi senators on the omnibus education bill that includes charter schools:
FOR – Nancy Collins, R-Tupelo; Gary Jackson, R-French Camp; Gray Tollison, R-Oxford.
AGAINST – Nickey Browning, D-Pontotoc; Hob Bryan, D-Amory; Russell Jolly, D-Houston; Rita Potts Parks, R-Corinth; Bill Stone, D-Ashland; Angela Turner, D-West Point, J.P. Wilemon, D-Belmont.

ARSC High-Performance Reconfigurable Computing Workshop
August 22-24, 2005
The Arctic Region Supercomputing Center (ARSC)
University of Alaska Fairbanks
Reconfigurable High-Performance Computing Systems based on conventional processors and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) reconfigurable processors have been gaining attention. These synergistic systems have the potential of exploiting coarse-grain functional parallelism through conventional parallel processing as well as fine-grain parallelism through direct hardware execution. Many of such systems have recently been developed by major high-performance computing and reconfigurable computing vendors. For the HPCMO and DoD High-Performance Computing centers, this raises a number of questions:
1. What is the real technology readiness level given the applications of interest? 2. What are the sustained capabilities of such machines and how do they compare to conventional high-performance computers? 3. Which DoD applications can benefit from hardware reconfiguration and hardware execution? 4. What are the main considerations for a technology insertion plan?
This symposium provided a forum for leaders and application developers from the high-performance reconfigurable computing industry, university, and DoD, to address these questions through a series of talks by pioneers in this field. The talks were followed by open discussions. The symposium addressed these questions from the perspectives of applications, programmability, operating systems, architectures, and tools.
Speakers included:
Dr. Gordon Brebner, Distinguished Engineer, Xilinx Kurt Dobson, Director of Engineering, Starbridge Systems Tarek El-Ghazawi, George Washington University Jon Huppenthal, President and CEO, SRC Stefan Möhl, Mitrion Dr. Walid Najjar, Professor, University of California Riverside Dr. Greg Newby, Acting Chief Scientist, ARSC Dr. Viktor Prasanna, Professor, Universiy of Southern California Virginia Ross, Program Manager of Information Technology Division, Rome Air Force Research Lab Kevin L.

Engine oil is the lifeblood of the engine. The oil resides in the oil pan, which is under the car attached to the bottom of the engine. All internal (moving) parts of the engine need to be lubricated by the engine oil. Inadequate lubrication will cause the parts to wear out faster and eventually lead to engine failure. An oil filter keeps the oil clean and free of debris. If the filter is not replaced on a regular basis, it will get clogged and will not be able to pass oil into the engine.

Sneakers may not be an obsession for everyone, but we all need shoes! Whether you buy one pair to last you for the year or you are an avid collector, all of our kicks come from somewhere and many of you may have wondered what exactly goes into making them. For the upcoming New Balance release with UK based boutique size? and Jeff Staple's Staple Design, the Massachusetts-based sneaker brand gave us a chance to see exactly what went into making this limited edition shoe for the first time.
PHOTOS: LeBron James Starts With Straight Shots & Then Pops Sneakers?
This version of the New Balance 577 is a take on the now famous Jeff Staple "Pigeon" colorway, normally made up of different shades of grey and infrared to mimic the colors of the actual bird. Of course the color must vary a bit for the "Black Pigeon," but the same craftsman ship went into this pair as any other pair of New Balances. Maybe even more because this pair was made at the UK New Balance factory that is home to New Balance's renowned "Made in England" range. It employs over 200 workers who manage to make between 6,500 and 7,000 shoes each week – all by hand.

The shoe drops this Saturday, November 17th at Reed Space in NYC and size? Carnaby Street, Paris, Manchester, Covent Garden, Liverpool, Leeds, Brighton, Bristol, Birmingham, Glasgow, Nottingham and online. You can take a look at what went into making the New Balance x Staple Designs x size? "Black Pigeon" sneaker in the gallery above.

decided to give github a try today. awesome service so far.
if you got a Nyko
blu-wave and want to use it with Elisa:
svn co https://jake.ruivo.org/uinputd/trunk/jsremote
and follow the README file :)
after spending some time trying to get into advanced mode on my second iogear KVM, I finally figured out what's wrong. on the user manual it says:
1. press and hold clear key for two seconds.
2. press and hold minus key [-] key for one second.
3. release minus key [-] and within one second also release clear key
when, in reality it should be:
1. press and hold clear key for two seconds.
2. tap on the minus key.
3. release clear key shortly after.
I'm sick and tired of fixing cosmetic issues trying to add support to PS3 bluetooth remote to linux (three months redoing patches). I'll just leave the latest version of the required patches here. good luck trying to get past the fashion police.
Yes, the patches do work. If you have problems _using_ the patches, feel free to contact me.
So, the problem is solved.
First off, its SUBSYSTEM is input not usb. We're handling a
evdev device creation, don't forget. The final version:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="event*", GOTO="wacom_rules"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="056a", SYMLINK+="input/wacom"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="056a", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0000", SYMLINK+="input/wacom-tablets/penpartner input/wacom-tablets/penpartner-%b"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="056a", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0010", SYMLINK+="input/wacom-tablets/graphire input/wacom-tablets/graphire-%b"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="056a", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0047", SYMLINK+="input/wacom-tablets/intuos2-6x8a input/wacom-tablets/intuos2-6x8a-%b"
ATTRS looks for the file on the parent directories as
well, solving the problem here.
One note is that if you try to get ATTRS{idVendor}=="056a" on the first rule to avoid repeating on all rules, it won't work, no idea why udev behaves this way.
It's easy to get upset with udev. On rawhide, the wacom rules simply don't work. The problem is that now there's no decent way to get Vendor/Product ids when you receive an eventX creation event. This is needed so the wacom rules can create /dev/input/wacom-tablets/<model> link. The current ugly way to fix it is to use ATTR{../id/vendor}. There must be a better solution. Yes, the rule worked for some time (BUS=="usb", KERNEL=="event*", SYSFS{idVendor}==...)
Spent my last days feeling like crap. Between fury explosions passing by depression and moments of extreme tension. The feeling that everything was falling apart. Something was terribly wrong. First suspect was the fact I don't go to climbing gym for a week, wrist injury. The lack of exercise can make me more nervous, but this is not the case: going to the gym everyday spend some time on treadmill. Coffee. In larger quantities or a stronger one can lead me to this behavior. Not the case also, I haven't been drinking more than the usual nor trying new brands. It could be lack of sleep. Hm, don't think so. I've been sleeping more than the usual since this weekend. Imagine trying to debug your brain while wanting to smash everything around. Not fun.
So, the answer came yesterday at night. I decided last friday that I wasn't having enough sugar. I'm a kind of person who prefers anything with salt than a chocolate or candy. Anyway, while reviewing what I usually eat everyday, I decided that would be healthy to have some chocolate everyday, some pieces. But what caffeine does is simply accelerate the sugar burn and having more than the usual on my veins made the amount of coffee I usually drink everyday more effective. This added to some problems I had last days resulted in a damn hard week.
No more coffee.
for you.
hm, what about dropping the chocolate instead?
after some time, I finally decided to do something about energy saving. I bought one of these to keep my home server running on constant power outages we got here. I installed apcupsd daemon and the CGI to provide informations about the state of battery, etc. I noticed that my home server - amd64 dual core 3800+, 3 SATA disks -, with a 19'' TFT monitor, DSL modem and a WRT54GS use 15% of APC capacity when idle and when I was compressing a big file with bzip2 (thus using one core, plus two disks (RAID1)) the usage jumped to 20%! It's 60VA more. Amazing.
I just resubmitted a very simple patch by the fourth time, at least. seems I just can't focus the code I'm writting and can't concentrate. seems I need a *lot* of effort to do so in these days. I wonder what this could be. if it's because I'm tired, I'm tired for months already and it's scary even to imagine how much time resting I would need to fix this, if this is the real problem. seems it's not going to improve next weeks, having to organize all stuff to my relocation.

The body count is high and the blood is red, white and blue in the new action flick, "Olympus Has Fallen."
"Olympus" is code for the White House, and it does, indeed, fall after North Korean terrorists launch a brutal attack on Washington, D.C.
When the president (Aaron Eckhart) is taken hostage along with his team of foreign policy officials, we see the gloating terrorists take down a bullet-torn American flag and toss it to the ground.
If only we had a hero, a good guy with a chip on his shoulder, somebody like Mike Banning (Gerard Butler), who still mourns the day several years ago when he let the First Lady die in order to save the president.
Banning has all the training and the will to take on the same terrorists that made America's military, police and Secret Service forces look like fools.
Did I mention that the president's son and Banning's little buddy (Finley Jacobsen) is somewhere in the White House and the terrorists really want to find him?
Can Banning save the president, his son and Western civilization all by himself?
I, for one, wouldn't bet against it, especially since the terrorists turn stupid after their initially successful raid. The Americans aren't terribly smart either, or the movie would've ended a few minutes after it started.
I'm treading lightly here because I don't want to give away too many plot points, even if I find them stupid. One character's actions make no sense at all. As my kids said, "You've got to have a back story," and this guy certainly doesn't.
I don't mind the high body count or the blood. I'm an American after all, and I've been watching gory films since the womb.
Director Antoine Fuqua's patriotic manipulation worked on me at some level. As bad as this movie is – and it is bad – I still enjoyed watching Banning unleash his fury against the evildoers.
All in all, I suggest you fire up your patriotism by renting the 1980s version of "Red Dawn" and avoiding this mess.
I give "Olympus Has Fallen" a D minus.
It's showing at Malcos in Tupelo, Oxford, Corinth and Columbus, as well as Hollywood Premier Cinemas in Starkville.
Look for movie reviews in Scene on Thursdays, and listen each Tuesday morning on Wizard 106.7 between 8:30 and 8:45 a.m.
Keli Karlson Wizard 106.7. She gives "Olympus Has Fallen" a B plus.
"Lots of action. Lots of patriotism."

A Scottish Salmon Fisher chases Bones
I enjoyed it but salar is still king. We were fishing on long island; we stayed at Chez Pierre http://w ww.chezpierrebahamas.com/ we were guided by Locksley Cartwright. The last time I fly fished in the sea was around 40 years ago off the Isle of Skye using a team of flies for mackerel on a hand line.
View from the bedroom window.
and the "bungalow itself.
This will be by no means a how to, as my knowledge is very limited, but a couple of pieces of advice.
1.For any non USA readers. Avoid Miami airport, the Americans make you queue or 2 hours to enter their country then you walk through customs down the stairs and out through the departure gates.
2. Watch out for the mosquitoes.
They bite!
My fishing knowledge was somewhat turned on its head, I always thought spring tides were good, high tide a good taking time and a good breeze with an overcast sky the way to go; but bonefish prefer smaller tides either rising or falling, at high tide they hide in the mangroves, Bahamas version of rhododendrons. You need strong sunshine and no wind as you are sight fishing and if there is no sun, you have even more difficulty seeing the fish, and a wind ruffles the surface making it hard even for the guides.
Locksley picked us up at 8:30, being used to see gillies' cars covered by spaniels a guides car covered in moggies amused me.
We then motored down Long Island to the spot where he kept his boat, the Silver Streak, which is powered by a 70 horsepower outboard. Once we had loaded the boat we set off, there was a slight swell but soon we were skimming over the waves, with a motion somewhat like horse riding, the push-pole protruding from the bow gave the impression of a medieval knight off to the joust. It was just after high tide (spring) and the bonefish were just starting to leave the mangroves. There were two of us sharing the boat so I decided I would observe first. Locksley was soon spotting fish and calling out the angle and distances "two o clock 20 yards, a little to your right" I could see nothing, we had a couple of follows but no hook ups, then it was my turn. I climbed up on the bow, proudly wearing my Tesco flats boots (trainers to you then). Locksley soon spotted a fish and I managed to cast somewhere near, "strip strip strip he's on it" then all of a sudden there was a take the loose line lying on the deck shot up the rod till the loop I was standing on stopped it- ping, first fish lost. Lesson one don't wear flats boots on the boat. New fly and start again, I hooked another and managed to loose it when a loop of line unexplainably wrapped itself round my finger. The day progressed in a similar way, but the sea was quite choppy and poor Locksley struggled to find the bonefish for us, the prime time is April and May when the winds are much less, tends to clash with primetime on Speyside so I will have to take their word for it.
Day 2
I was first up and Locksley soon had a bonefish in his sights "40 yards, eleven o-clock, wait Malcolm, 20 yards can you see him?" "No" but under Locksley's guidance I dropped a fly close enough to get a take and after a few 100yard plus runs I landed my first bonefish. I can only describe it as hooking onto the collar of a passing motorcyclist. I landed a second one later that morning and flushed with success Locksley decided we would fish a Tarpon hole over low water. To cast for tarpon you need a twelve weight single handed rod and I must say casting it was somewhat of a acquired taste, I would have preferred a double handed rod I have never been as strong a caster with a single handed rod, but beggars can't be choosers. On my second stint the line suddenly stopped then took off, the check on the reel was set so tight that I had struggled to pull line off to cast, but the fish almost made it seem like a free spool. The advice was to strike three times, I could not even strike once, suddenly this huge fish jumped about 70yards away, and I had lost my first ever tarpon. I was told that tarpon mouths are like a toilet bowl and you really need to drive the hook home. If bonefish are like hooking a motorcyclist tarpon are like hooking an articulated lorry.
The wild life was always interesting; it is very pleasant to share a boat, half hour fishing half our sitting in the sun watching the wild life. The ospreys were interesting; they build their nests in the mangroves only about six feet off the ground unlike ours which build on the top of pine trees. We were poling past one and I admit I was paying scant attention to looking for bonefish, when Locksley spotted one, I was getting ready to cast when the osprey took off and its shadow spooked the fish, yet another way to miss catching one. We also saw house/ sand martens on their migration south. The Bahamas kingfishers are about the size of pigeons, and there appears to be a few kinds of herons and egrets. I also saw a humming bird a first for me. Whilst we were fishing the tarpon hole an eagle ray with a wing span of around six feet jumped around eight feet clear of the water, wish I could have got a photo. There are plenty of sharks both small and not so small which fortunately swim off when you are wading. Small sting rays can be a worry as their tail sting can be painful and sometimes they are half buried in the sand. The moths are large, I heard this fluttering at the window and thought a bat was trying to get in, but on closer examination it was only a moth and the garlic was not needed.
Ospreys nest.
One day we discovered a small school of bonefish close to an island a few were very close to the mangroves and one I hooked took off straight into the middle, ping yet another leader broken. We had caught a couple each when the sharks turned up. I had hooked what appeared to be a decent sized fish, the first 100yard sprint had been controlled when suddenly the fish took off, I was seriously worried I would be spooled then the water had a large muddy swirl a sudden huge pull then nothing, easy lunch for a shark or perhaps barracuda.
Hurricanes can be a problem and we saw a few yachts washed up on the beeches, no one appears to salvage them, which intrigued me. I'm convinced the owner of this yacht was less than tickled pink.
For the film buffs amongst you one of the flats we fished was the closing scene from Pirates of the Caribbean where they are chasing across the sands looking or the chest? Or was it the key?
On a historical note Long Island is one of the island that claims to be the place Christopher Columbus first landed in the Americas

I thoroughly enjoyed your epistle. You made it akin to an old comedy skit, "Who's on First Base." Very funny and poignant. Thanks for making my day!
I also enjoyed your post. I think anyone that has fished in the Bahamas can identify with all your adventures and observations.
If those are mosquito bites then you had some kind of reaction to them. Thats just not normal.
Outstanding. Many thanks. And welcome to the tropical club.
Thanks so much for your gifted post. Bonefishing under anything less than nice conditions is humbling, but worth it. Now that you are a vet. , try it again.
Hi Willie
Well written post and great photo's,
That's one serious bacterial infection you've got there!. I imagine it came from either a coral scrape or chafing from sand in your flats boots or socks.
Here's a word of advice from someone who's gone through the same...On your next fishing trip to tropical waters, bring a fully complete first-aid kit that includes iodine and anti-bacterial cream. The most important addition to that kit would be a generous roll of waterproof duct tape. Clean, treat and dress the wound as per normal (iodine/cream/gauze pads),...then overwrap the works with the duct tape to keep your dressings dry and clean.
Believe me! I know what you went through and I'm sure you've been left with some ugly scarring that will never go away...mine didn't! It's amazing how the most minor of irritations turn into ugly septic infections after being exposed to all the various bacterias found when wading flats.
Once again...looks like you had a great time!
Definately mosquitoes if you look carefully, not a pleasant thought, you can see the individual bites. I seem to have a very bad reaction to insect bites. A couple of anti-histimine tablets washed down with a bottle of red wine soon got rid of inflamation.

It looks like several Doctor fly bites to me. Get two or three of those close to each other and it can make for one helluva mess.
Pity you didn't stay the last day, Malcolm, when the Holy Grail came past in classic manner 10-15 lbs, and ignored two reasonably well placed offerings. No time for a crab fly, but I've had one on a clouser before.
Glad you enjoyed it.
I thoroughly enjoyed that, great read.
My passion for catching fish is eclipsed only by the fish's passion not to be caught.

For an easy dessert that serves a crowd, you can't go wrong with trifle. Mix it up with the variation below and enjoy it your way.
This dessert is delicious served with fresh whipped cream.
To remove seed and peel from mango, use a sharp knife to make a cut through one side of mango, sliding knife next to seed. Repeat on other side of seed, making 2 large pieces. Make cuts in crosshatch fashion through flesh just to peel; bend peel back and carefully slide knife between peel and flesh to separate. Discard peel; cut flesh into cubes.
Recipe Variation
Banana-Raspberry-Orange Trifle: Substitute sliced bananas (sprinkled with lemon juice), fresh raspberries and canned mandarin orange segments for the pineapple, mango and strawberries. Experiment to come up with your favorite combination!

found 6 at a Wally world this morning.....
found 6 at a Wally world this morning.....
Since they are the same price are these taking the slot on the shelves where Jabba has been? The Walmart that I frequent has 5 Jabbas and there doesn't seem to be any space for anything else in the plan-o-gram.
Also, how is it? Worth a purchase?
Reading the last Q&A sessions they talked about keeping a shelf space for a whole year and if I recall, that was the excuse for re-releasing the ARC-170 repaint before the CW Y-wing, to hold the space.
I think I'm gonna pass on this one, even though it has the revamped cockpit. I already have 3 from previous releases and I don't feel like I need another............................unless it has a really cool gimmick.
straight re-pack pretty much.....added missle with 6 bombs now that deploy with a twisting mechanism from the back of the chamber....the top button now fires the missile....new upgraded ejecting cockpit....side by side it looks identical...oh well, still cool....the bombs are clear with a blue inner component....
No luck at my Walmart. How's the color compare with the other releases? Is closer to the blue of the 2002 Walmart release or the grey 2007 Target release?
Well, my Walmart never had any shelf space dedicated to Jabba (the lone the Jabba set that I found in the clearance section is the only one I've ever seen at this Walmart), so I don't know where they would put the TIE Bombers unless they get an endcap like last year's AT-STs.
Anyways, I don't own a TIE Bomber anymore, so as long as this release is "clean" with no weathering painted onto it, then I think it will be worth a purchase.
EDIT: Actually I just realized that they never fixed the undersized wings from the POTJ release. It's still just using the wings from Darth Vader's TIE Fighter. That's puts a bit of a damper on my enthusiasm for this, plus I am seeing some weathering paint on the loose photos that people have posted - which further hurts my interest in this toy. I might wait for this one to hit the post-Christmas clearance before buying it. If I miss out, then I'll just wait until Hasbro rereleases it with the correct wings.
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split. - Robert E. Howard
There's definitely some weathering on this NEW one.....It's a lot more blue than grey in color.....
Why didn't this $40 ship include a FREAKIN PILOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that occurs outside the womb (uterus). It is life-threatening to the mother.
Tubal pregnancy; Cervical pregnancy; Tubal ligation-ectopic pregnancy
In most pregnancies, the fertilized egg travels through the fallopian tube to the womb (uterus). If the movement of the egg is blocked or slowed through the tubes, it can lead to an ectopic pregnancy. Things that may cause this problem include:
The following also increase risk of an ectopic pregnancy:
Sometimes the cause is unknown. Hormones may play a role.
The most common site for an ectopic pregnancy is within one of the two fallopian tubes. In rare cases, ectopic pregnancies can occur in the ovary, abdomen, or cervix.
An ectopic pregnancy can occur even if you use birth control.
You may have early pregnancy symptoms, such as breast tenderness or nausea. Other symptoms may include:
If the area around the abnormal pregnancy ruptures and bleeds, symptoms may get worse. They may include:
The health care provider will do a pelvic exam. The exam may show tenderness in the pelvic area.
A pregnancy test and vaginal ultrasound will be done.
HCG is a hormone normally produced during pregnancy. Checking the blood level of this hormone (quantitative HCG blood test) can diagnose pregnancy. If the blood level of HCG is not rising fast enough, your doctor may suspect an ectopic pregnancy.
Ectopic pregnancy is life-threatening. The pregnancy cannot continue to birth (term). The developing cells must be removed to save the mother's life.
You will need emergency medical help if the area of the ectopic pregnancy breaks open (ruptures). Rupture can lead to bleeding and shock, an emergency condition. Treatment for shock may include:
If there is a rupture, surgery is done to stop blood loss and remove the pregnancy. In some cases, the doctor may have to remove the fallopian tube.
If the ectopic pregnancy has not ruptured, treatment may include:
One out of three women who have had one ectopic pregnancy are later able to have a baby. Another ectopic pregnancy is more likely to occur. Some women do not become pregnant again.
The likelihood of a successful pregnancy after an ectopic pregnancy depends on:
Call your doctor or nurse if you have:
Most forms of ectopic pregnancy that occur outside the fallopian tubes are probably not preventable. You may be able to reduce your risk by avoiding conditions that may scar the fallopian tubes. These steps include:

Mother's Day, which is observed this Sunday in the USA along with many other countries, is a day to celebrate the gift of life we have been given and the women who gave us that gift. But amongst all the cards and commercialisation, Mother's Day for me is always tinged with sadness as I remember one specific night at a hospital in a low income country when three young mothers were brought in dead on arrival. One after the other they arrived, dead with their infants from completely preventable causes, mainly obstructed labour, that would not have caused the death of a woman in a wealthier country.
I want to make two points for Mother's Day:
Firstly, mothers and their infants are dying in labour because of diabetes. Diabetes is an important and often overlooked maternal health issue. Whether those deaths are caused by unmanaged type 1 or 2 diabetes or from gestational diabetes, we can put an end to this tragic loss of life. We don't know how many women are affected but the numbers are likely to be significant. And the impact of the death of a mother for her infant, her children, her husband and her community cannot be calculated. Nobody should ever think that those lost mothers are less precious than our own.
Secondly, improved maternal health can prevent diabetes. Children – even before they are born – are put on the road to ill-health and disease. The health of your mother before and during her pregnancy has increased or decreased your own risk of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease as an adult. And the same may even be true for your grandmother.
So what does this mean? For policy makers the message is simple. Every mother counts. No matter what the cause, every preventable death is a violation of human rights and is an outrage. All preventable maternal deaths are personally and politically unacceptable. I ask political, business, media, NGO, and community leaders to look into the facts of maternal death and diabetes in their communities. Ask questions about how many, why and what could have been done. No pregnant woman need die from diabetes. Despite diabetes being so closely intertwined with maternal health, the global development agenda remains skewed, and diabetes and NCDs remain ignored. With the end date of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) drawing closer, policy makers have an unprecedented opportunity to put that right.
And what does this mean for mothers? It means that every mother counts and every mother makes a difference. When empowered with the right information, education, health care and nutrition, every mother can take steps to ensure she has a healthy pregnancy and improve the life chances of her child. And beyond pregnancy, often as the gatekeepers of household nutrition and lifestyle, mothers have a special influence on dietary patterns and prospects of health of children and adolescents. In low- and middle-income countries, the challenges remain immense for mothers, but IDF is committed to changing this and empowering women to be leaders in the fight to prevent diabetes.
Investing in the health of women and children is the right thing to do. Every mother is precious and every healthy mother will help stop the spread of the diabetes epidemic to the next generation.

Cycling Campaign Should Champion Non-Cyclists
What surprised me were the number (all women) who said they would like to cycle more but wouldn't dare because it's just too unsafe. When I told them about the cycling campaign, they suggested we should be representing the non-cyclists who would like to cycle but dare not.
We may see one or two turn up to our next meeting.

I saw a survey, which I'm sure was conducted in Darlington, where a huge percentage of people were reported to consider cycling dangerous. I don't remember the exact fugures, but it was around 90%.
What shocked me was the something like 70% considered walking to be dangerous!
Can we start a campaign to stop people parking on pavements? A BMW was parked right across the pavement on Stockton Road on Saturday, forcing my wife and I to manoeuvre our 3-year-old on her bike and our 1-year-old in her pushchair over the grass verge and around the back of the car. There are no parking restrictions on the side of Stockton road at that point, so the car could have been parked on the road.

Yes, these drivers are either irresponsible or simply daft or/and unaware of any traffic member but a car.
I would suggest to write down the number plates of these unsocially behaving drivers and publish them here.
Have fun!

So adios Fira de Montjuic, hola Centre Comercial Gran Via 2. I am of course talking about Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2012, where the great and good of the mobile industry were invited to gather last week. Sadly, they were otherwise engaged so a ragbag assortment of hacks, flacks, mobile operators and vendors turned up instead. This year also marked MWC's final swansong at the Fira before it moves to a new venue next year…all the way to the other end of Barcelona.
It's my 4th time at the show and as anyone who has ever been will know, sticking nearly 70,000 people into the Spanish equivalent of the Crystal Maze equals a mix of elbows and arms at dawn and a bun fight for a ham baguette in overcrowded cafes. It was certainly a busy show for the lorries, over 20 briefings in two days with press and analysts including a few video interviews added in for good measure. Personally, next year I'll miss the Fira and I'm not the only one.
The theme of the show was 'redefining mobile' and the word on everybody lips was certainly 'change'. Funnily enough, the MWC's move to a new location has parallels with where mobile operators and traditional handset manufacturers are right now – letting go of the past and having to be dragged kicking and screaming into a uncertain future faster than you can say 'where's my battery life gone?'. Many of the people we spoke to have been booking the same hotel, stands and going to the same events for years and don't fancy the idea of upping sticks to the other side of the city. Many of those same people have struggled to deal with a changing mobile landscape as the likes of Google, Apple and OTT services like Netflix eat into traditional mobile revenues of operators and handset manufacturers like Nokia, Sony and Huawei. But the sparks of change are there. As important as it is, this year's show was less about improving infrastructure and more about adding services that create customer loyalty. A smartphone in and of itself does not a mobile business make and, if your end-to-end mobile emporium isn't stuffed to the gills with apps and services, the punters won't be coming back.
The message was clear from show attendees and exhibitors, operators and handset manufacturers need to invest in value-added services and apps that keep customers happy or risk being further relegated to the owners of hardware – whether that's the pipes that transfer data or the handset hardware that carries the interesting software stuff.
I've no idea what the Centre Comercial Gran Via 2 will be like for next year's show (change isn't always better!) but I'm looking forward to seeing what moves the mobile industry will make with the changes around them. Huawei created a horse made of mobile phones for this year's show – surely anyone who does that is up for a bit of innovation?!

...Tonight at 8 pm on New England Cable News. We'll be discussing coverage of 1. John Edwards' affair and 2. "Clark Rockefeller."
Right now, I plan to say that the press as a whole was too slow to cover Edwards' dalliance. This isn't a private matter: for example, if Edwards' infidelity had become a major story at the beginning of the Democratic primaries, Hillary Clinton could be the nominee now rather than Barack Obama. So why the dearth of coverage? In no particular order, I'd cite sympathy for Elizabeth Edwards; distaste for the National Enquirer, which drove the story; and a general reluctance to chase scoops from other media outlets, tabloid or no.
Meanwhile, I have zero sympathy for the scolds who think the "Clark Rockefeller" story has received too much attention. Good God, people! This is an incredible tale, a real-life Talented Mr. Ripley in which Boston plays a starring role. If it's too tawdry for your taste, spend some time at one of the zillion other news outlets available on the Web until this saga simmers down.
Also, my preliminary research suggests that the Herald has been driving the "Rockefeller" coverage more than the Globe. But I may amend that judgment by this evening.
Readers, what say you?
UPDATE! I won't be talking about "Clark Rockefeller" tonight, but his attorney will. That said, in the wake of some bracing pushback from a Globie--"utterly off the wall" were the words used--I'll be posting tomorrow on the Herald and Globe's respective victories on that story.

Free Colon Cancer Screenings Available Through Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital
The Vince Demuzio Colorectal Cancer Screening Initiative is working with Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital to provide free screenings for colon cancer to individuals in Logan County. The funding for the $300,000 pilot project grant to Southern Illinois University School of Medicine is from Illinois Department of Public Health.
Criteria to qualify for the screenings are – individuals must be 50-64 years old, be uninsured or underinsured, and have a household income that is below 2½ times the Federal poverty level ($55,000 annual income for a family of four). The grant covers the screening costs and arranges follow-up and referrals if needed. Subsequent treatment costs are not directly covered.
Information about the screenings is available by calling the centralized office at SIU, 1-877-321-6506 weekdays.
The project is a collaborative effort by Simmons Cancer Institute at SIU, hospitals and public health departments throughout central Illinois. Dr. David E. Steward, professor and chair of internal medicine at SIU, is coordinating the project.
According to the National Institutes of Health, rates for screening for colorectal cancer are consistently lower than those for other cancers, despite the evidence and guidelines that support the value of screening for this disease. Illinois Cancer Facts and Figures, a biennial report published by the American Cancer Society, noted that screening rates are low for both colonoscopies (55 percent) and at-home fecal occult blood tests (40 percent).
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of death due to cancer for men and women combined. Survival rates for colon and rectum cancer are nearly 90 percent when the cancer is diagnosed before it has extended beyond the intestinal wall.
Regularly scheduled screening can prevent cancer from developing if precancerous polyps are detected and removed before they become cancer, this requires a colonoscopy. Regular screenings also can find cancer in its earliest stages, when it can be treated.

Tibbetts stopped by to talk about movies and this particular moviemaker with Randy Mason.

Here is an example of "don't believe everything you read"
# 54; Baker 4th series: flyer, front footed it; RR, wide left of bales to stay dry, hooked to bird;
MR, left of bales, picked up bird quick. 5th series: flyer, smacked it; SR, took off under arc to left
of hold. blind, then right, a hunt, finally got bird; LR, stepped on it; RR, straight to bird ... DROPPED.
# 42; Gonia 4th series; flyer very nice; RR, went out dry, came back wet for an accurate mark;
MR, wide left of brush, out of sight, came up with bird. 5th series: flyer stepped on it; SR, went in
looking for bird came up with it quick; LR, straight as an arrow to bird; RR, carried to right edge
of 3 mounds and smashed it. DROPPED.
I am sure the reporting was accurate, but without looking at the whole body of work,without being there.....I think that is why the last couple of years when the winner has been announced there is a gentle thud, and a hush of silence, from the RTF, because we are all guilty of cheering for certain connections, and jumping to conclusions when the least little bit of info comes our way....
as a wise man told all of us " not all handles are equal at a National"...

Alesis Ion
The Ion Analog Modeling Synthesizer is one fat-sounding digital synth! Using Alesis' proprietary DSP Analog Modeling technology with a 500 MIPS processor (500 million instructions per second), every knob and button is tweakable in real-time giving you the feel and sound of a true analog oldie.
The Ion has 8-voice polyphony with 3 oscillators per voice, and is 4-part multi-timbral. It offers continuously variable wave shapes (sine waves can morph into square waves), plus osc-sync and FM synthesis. 16 filter types are included, along with two LFOs, Sample & Hold, and an Arpeggiator-all of which sync to MIDI clock. A powerful and intuitive modulation matrix is built in, as well as a 40-band vocoder that does not use up any polyphony. External stereo audio can be processed through the filters, effects, or the vocoder.
Though not a true analog like the Andromeda A6, the Ion is capable of creating a wide variety of sounds from warm thick analog pads all the way to gritty monophonic leads and basses, as well as some funky and realistic sound effects. The Ion also simulates the best of the classic analogs such as Oberheims, Roland Jupiters, Arps, Moogs, etc, largely due to its great filters - there is hardly any aliasing even on the highest tones. The Ion also comes equipped with not one but two modulation wheels, both assignable to mods in the mod matrix (LFOs only assignable to mod wheel 1). The Ion has an amazing range of tonal possibilities.
The chic design, layout, and large backlit screen make editing on the Ion a dream! The Modulation Matrix is easy to understand and can route any modulation parameter to almost every component of the Ion!! All parameter knobs (excluding master volume & menu knob) are 360 degree pots allowing you to twist all the day long! A 160x160 graphic display provides instant visual feedback as a parameter is edited. Along with having 512 patch settings (all user-rewritable), the Ion has 64 multi-timbral setups. All parameters including arpeggiator settings are stored with each preset.
The ION keyboard contains 49 velocity-sensitive keys, 4 analog outputs and 2 stereo analog inputs (all balanced and using 24-bit conversion), 4 individual insert effects, a stereo master multi-FX processor, and an internal universal power supply. Expression and sustain pedal ports as well as headphone jacks are also there. For those who want a versatile synth and can't afford the A6, this is the synth for you - arguably one of the best 'virtual-analog' synths for awesome, analogue-like sounds.
The Ion inspired a "Mini-Me" version of itself in the Micron. It's the exact same synth as the Ion, except housed in a small 3-octave keyboard with only a few real-time controls. It has a few new features such as pattern and phrase sequencers and more filter types & effects - designed for the "on the go" musician in an overall more affordable package.

Diane Strassman
Oregon- The beautiful life of Diane Janice (Schultz) Strassman, age 60, ended February 23rd, 2013. She was surrounded and comforted by her family as she was listening to one of her favorite musicians, Tina Turner. Born April 16, 1952 in Madison, the third child of Donald and Eleanor (Lawry) Schultz, she graduated from Central High School in spring of 1970 and married her high school sweetheart Donald Strassman on August 21, 1971. Diane and Don made life long careers together running an electrical business in the Madison area; Diane played a critical role as office manager of their self-started business, Capital City Electric. This allowed Diane to have a dual career as a stay-at-home and work-at-home Mom. Diane was often known to be up in the wee morning hours working the books for the business so that she could spend the days and nights providing warm and loving home for her two children, and her four grandchildren who were the light of her life. Extended friends and family were always warmly welcomed into the home and many people think of Diane fondly as a "second mom" to them. Diane is famous for her singing skills, especially her ability to be the life of the party and find fun entertaining songs on Karaoke nights. She was a wonderful cook and enjoyed creating dishes with her husband to share with the family. She truly enjoyed sitting outside and looking at the birds and her flowers and sipping a martini with the love of her life, Don. Most of all she loved being with family – she will be greatly missed for her unconditional love for all people from her husband, to her daughters, to her sons-in-laws, to her nieces and nephews, brother and sisters, and all of the friends of those people...Diane had one of the most kind and genuine hearts anyone has ever seen. Her smile, warmth and true passion for caring was contagious. We will let it be known though that if you were to enter into a snowball fight with her, you were bound to lose! Although Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS) made these things terrifically difficult for Diane to enjoy and partake in, everyone around her was moved by the strength and courage that she had to beat the disease for as long as she could. She is a gem, a true gift to the people who met her and to whom she was able to touch through the gift of her own life.
Survivors include her husband of 41 years Donald "Don", children Lynea (Aaron) LaVoy, Ashley (Brian) Anderson; Grandchildren, Evelyn, Nolan and Alivia LaVoy, and Audrey Anderson; mother and father, Donald and Eleanor Schultz; brother, Gerald (Joan) Schultz; and sisters, Gloria (Tom) Swayzee and Karen (Dave) McGaw. She is further survived by her brother-in-law, David (Cheryl) Strassman; and sisters-in-law, Cindy (Roger) Beck, Cathy (Marva Becker) Strassman, Mary (Mark) Grosse, Christina (Jim) Nygren, and Lisa (Tom) Robson. Diane was preceded in death by her mother and father-in law, Grace and August Strassman.
Funeral Services will be held at GUNDERSON OREGON FUNERAL HOME, 1150 Park St., Oregon, at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Feb. 28, 2013. A visitation will be held at the funeral home on Wednesday, Feb. 27, 2013 from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. and also on Thursday from 10 a.m. until the time of service. Memorial contributions are welcome to the family in lieu of flowers. The family would like to thank Agrace HospiceCare for their support and care, with special thanks to mom's Valentine's Melissa, Amanda and Jessica.
Diane requested that people not wear gloomy colors to her services!
