- Product Features
This new product has 120 very bright LEDs per meter, and it became instantly popular for a host of reasons:
- High Color Rendering Index (80+) not found in most LED strip. This means the light provides more even illumination of all colors of the spectrum. The LEDs cost more, but our lighting designer customers and other discriminating buyers have asked us for this. The light quality is excellent.
- High density: with 120 LEDs per meter, the light is more even, and if you use our track with diffusers, you can get rid of the dots completely, which is a desired feature in direct lighting applications.
- It's bright, but it's dimmable, so get one of our high quality dimming drivers and use a recommended Lutron dimmer to adjust your light intensity with style, and with the comfort of knowing that we sell the best dimming drivers money can buy, so your LEDs will last a long time. We also test our dimming drivers on many Lutron dimmers and offer Lutron dimmers from the most basic to the fanciest Maestro wireless and RadioRa2.
Easy to install:- Non-waterproof version has high-adhesion stickyback. Just peel off the wax paper and stick it to any clean, dry substrate.

- Applications
Our newest addition is "color tunable" strip lighting which lets you adjust the color of white you prefer — from warm white (2,400°K) to daylight white (6,500°K) and any color in between. In retail environments, you may require different color temperatures depending on the area of the store. Color tunable strip gives you that flexibility. For example, a jewelry display case would look best in neutral white (4,000°K) to make the jewels shine! Whereas a dressing room in a clothing store might choose a soft white (3,000°K) to help improve the skin tone of customers while they try on clothes.
LED ribbon is one of our specialties. We have a lot of experience with LED strip projects, and that will inure to your benefit. This is LED linear lighting, the easy way, and we can make it work with your DMX wall washers and other devices. No need to look further. Give us a call for technical advice or easy-to-understand documentation! - Specifications

Accusations of blasphemy, a criminal offense under Egypt's new Islamist-backed constitution, have been leveled more frequently against writers, activists, and Christians in recent months.
By Maggie Michael, Associated Press / May 18, 2013
The pale, young Christian woman sat handcuffed in the courtroom, accused of insulting Islam while teaching history of religions to fourth-graders. A team of Islamist lawyers with long beards sang in unison, "All except the Prophet Muhammad."

Antarctic Climate Change
The news is harsh. We have a cycle of hard news on the economy, wars, neocons, and climate change. That's just for starts.
As we learn about the extent of climate change, the sober and serious quality sets in.
The Arctic may soon be ice free, Greenland is melting, and the Antarctic is melting. This is still only part of the change.
Guardian UK: World's largest ice sheet melting faster than expected
"If the current trend continues or gets worse, Antarctica could become the largest contributor to sea level rises in the world. It could start to lose more ice than Greenland within a few years..."

Sail-World.com : Marine Auctions: the best bet for buying and selling boats
Marine Auctions: the best bet for buying and selling boats
'Marine Auctions - register online' Marine Auctions
Thinking of selling your boat or buying your next one? Marine Auctions are the way to go for market value, added reach and global interest.
Marine Auctions are the alternative way of selling any type of vessel or marine asset, with proven successful results throughout Australia, and now, the world, asserts director, Adrian Seiffert.
'It's economical and accessible to anybody, wherever they happen to be,' says Seiffert. 'Especially over the summer when people are on holidays, or travelling. It means that if they're too far from the auction centre, they can sell and bidding on their phone or laptop, with absolute confidence as we are the faces behind the site.'
Marine Auctions, Adrian Seiffert - Bob Wonders

John Ferrett handles the online auctions for Marine Auctions, joining the company from a background in running an auction firm specialising in IT.
'Online auctions broaden a boat's reach to the world. It's a win-win for vendor and customer. It reduces costs, opens up the market to more people, increases competition which gets better prices for the vendor, which leads to happy vendors who in many cases, go on to buy another boat.'
The use of webcams facilitates the process and the website, marineauctions.com.au contains thorough descriptions, images and details on all boats on offer. Buyers all over Australia, and the world, can see the boats, watch the auction as it happens and bid online.
Pre-loved (used) boats are enjoying buoyant sales, according to Seiffert, who says 'there's one to suit everybody'.
'People entering boating for the first time, those getting back in to it after many years, even long-time boaties are looking around for the best buys and finding pre-loved is the way to go. That's how they buy their cars, their homes, their clothing, so it makes sense that they are confident to buy second-hand boats from a reputable, reliable source.'
The next online auction commences on Friday25 January and ends 3pm Thursday 31 January.
The next traditional on-site auction will take place at Rivergate Marina, Brisbane, 10am Saturday9 February 2013.
'We are currently accepting entries for both auctions,' says Seiffert. 'Being the first of the year, there are some good boats coming in already, including a 2005 57ft Bertram with a tuna tower, a good, low hour boat.'
John with one of the brand-new Nobles Marine Auctions has on offer. - Marine Auctions
Other craft include a new 2012 Oceancraft Centre Console on a brand new Seatrail trailer, used 36' air dock, approximately seven years old with a 9 ton capacity, Queensland license plates 'BOATING' that would be a valuable personalised plate for any boatie to have on his or her car, an immaculate 1999 Rogers North Reef Catamaran, 2005 7.6m Powercat Partycat that has recently undergone full refurb including hardtop upgrade, full set of new camper covers, hot water, fully detailed and newly antifouled, an Avon 6m RIB with Volvo Turbo Diesel Inboard/Outboard and centre console, plus many more.

Trust me, the other side was much worse.
Since I had some Valspar Tropical Oasis spray paint on hand (leftover from some kitchen accessories), I just went with that. Gave it a couple quick coats and done.
Went on my computer and found a font that I liked, made my W pretty big, and printed it out.
Then I cut the INSIDE out of the W, so I could fill it in with paint.
I laid it on the cookie sheet, and filled it in with some white acrylic paint and a foam brush.
I knew it wouldn't have the look I wanted, but I used this technique anyway, knowing I would "fix" it with my teeny tiny paintbrush. You know, give it a more finished look.
I wanted to use painter's tape for a crisp border around the W, but I was running extremely short on tape, so I just used it on the edges, and tried my best to make a straight line on the other side that wasn't taped;)
Just kept painting until it was nice and white, peeled the tape off, and done! Not even sure where this will end up...possibly on an end table in our new family room (stay tuned for that exciting news in a post later this week!)? You could use it for whatever...like maybe some coasters and stuff...or keys and mail...
Or perhaps leaning on a shelf?
I don't care where it ends up, all I know is I now have a cute little tray and didn't pay a single penny for it! Next time you're about to throw out your dingy old cookie sheets, go grab the spray paint instead! Love free decorating, don't you?!

Comments about Dial Complete� Foaming Hand Wash; 7.5oz., Cranberry:
I use Dial Foaming Hand Wash at home and at school. While I love the Cranberry, it's hard to find in the stores and I was delighted that Quill has it! My students prefer using the foaming hand wash to the soap provided by the school district. Since they like it better, they wash their hands more frequently!! Great bonus, especially during this flu season.
Great refreshing smell!!!

one 'n only Colorfix
ChloeHairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairHorribleSo, my hair started out being bleached with blue-green color over it. My local Sally's recommended this in order to strip out the color. I did all the instructions told me to and endured the rotten egg smell, only to have absolutely no difference in hair color at all! My hair still has that horrid smell to it! Don't buy it, it's a complete waste of 15 bucks.posted Jul 12, 2012Link to this post
Betty R.West Palm Beach,flHairBlackNormal HairOily HairDry HairFine or Thin HairIs Less Then Yuck Girls Don't Buy It Is A Wasted MoneyIt doesn't do what it suppost to do,I did it 2 times and nothing my hair steel the same color but smelling bad because of that. My hair is black and I wanna to be a blonde but no luck with this product. At least if you buy a color and give it on a black hair it won't give you the blonde but at least will give you the orange hair to give you the color again so it will get the color that you want. Waste waste of money with the colorfix this don't buy it girl.posted Jul 6, 2012Link to this post
Sandra A.CanadaHairBlackNormal HairColor Treated HairDid What It Said It Would Do!I have naturally reddish brown hair and have been dying it black on and off for the past 5 years, and I usually go to my salon to get all my hair needs dealt with. But now I am a poor student and I don't have the money to spend on getting my hair done every 6 weeks and I also wanted to go back to my natural color. So I needed a quick cheap fix. I did not exactly follow the instructions but close enough, I mixed the equal parts one and two and used my hands with gloves on to get it in my hair like I was shampooing (I do this with hair dye too, I find it works better) then put a plastic bag on my hair and waited. I looked after 20 minutes and it didn't seem that much different, so I left it on for an extra 20, shampooed it twice conditioned it for 10 minutes and DID NOT use step 3 the lotion. My hair turned out better than great, it is all one color, it's not dry at all and if I wanted to dye it a bit darker cause it has a reddish tinge I can also do that. It does have a bit of a rotten egg smell but nothing compared to the Color Oops I previously used. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone with black hair that is trying to get rid of it.posted Jun 11, 2012Link to this post
CheyenneHairLight BrownOily HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairPerfect!I have dyed my hair for about 5 years now nonstop. Ive been blonde and brunette, as well as jet black. This stuff took ALL the color out leaving me blonde with a hideous orange tinge. It basically brought me back to the start, when it comes to hair color. I have bleached before so every hint of color in my hair is dye.
Now I'm off to dye it red, and I expect it will come out amazing. You see, you can't dye red over black, I learned. It doesnt do anything haha.
Use a shower cap and blowdry it for a few minutes to max out the lightening, so you dont have to do it twice. Btw it does not dry out hair, just irritates the scalp a little.
Dont use step 2, its pointless.
Be prepared to dye over it if necessary, esp if your a previous bleacher like me
Dye over with DEMI perm NOT perm the first shot. Yes, it washes out after 28 washes but TRUST me, you dont want to go perm right away. This stuff makes your hair really porous and perm hair color will come out darker than you prefer.
Good luck!posted Jun 9, 2012Link to this post -
KarenIt Does WorkMy hair is naturally strawberry blonde. I colored it and ended up with a dark cherry color. Aaaarrrrggggghhh. Used Colorfix and it turned out perfect. I got a golden reddish color. It's beautiful. I am so happy. I highly recommend this product if you want to "un-dye" your hair. Oh yea, the smell is bad but worth it. The smell reminded me of cleaning a fish tank. Smelly fish poop.posted May 28, 2012Link to this post
TraceyTorontoHairMedium BrownNormal HairDry HairColor Treated HairI Dye My Hair More Often Than Canada Changes SeasonsI had my hair soft black for 5+ years. I spent hundreds upon hundreds of colour correction done at salons with minimal results (slowly highlighting all over with bleach). If only I would have known about this product before. Tired of the bleach blonde look ive slowly been using box dyes to dye my hair progressively darker. However, I had a recent oops and dyed my hair a tad to dark and it came out almost black. I have a wedding to go to soon and didnt want jet black hair for it so I was researching my options when I came across this product. Reading various reviews I knew this product was not for semi perm products so I was good there. I wondered how well it would actually work. I did not use step 3 because after reading pages upon pages of reviews I knew it was more than likely to darken my hair than actually do any good. I mixed up the entire box (even though it would have been good for more applications). Applied it with a reg hair dye brush all over. I put a shower cap on (as that was all I had) heated approx every 5-10 mins with a blow dryer. The smell is horrendous Ive used some products before and just make sure when you go to buy this your weighing the bad things against the good (so what if your hair smells disgusting for a little bit this is a cheaper and less damaging alternative). I ended up leaving the product on for about 60 mins than washed it out with an anti dandruff shampoo as I seen some other people posting suggesting that (clarifying would work as well). I followed with an ion hair mask which I left on for about 5 mins (so not sure actually how damaging this product is however my hair did not feel any dryer when washing it out i just followed with this just in case, my hair feels amazing so i do suggest if you have the option to just use a moisturizing mask afterwards.) My hair was instantly lighter and is actually almost my original colour. I am quite happy with the results i received obviously its not going to work as well for everyone. But there are more than enough good reviews on this to definitely check it out. And if you are looking to go lighter you really do not have a lot to lose as this does not damage your hair.
I am very happy with my results and would definitely buy this product again if i had another oops. The only real bad reviews are people who had semi perm colours such as pink or blue and were disappointed that a product that clearly stated on the packing would not work for them in fact did not work. Go figure. Try it out if you have hair thats perm dyed a colour and you will more than likely have decent results.posted May 28, 2012Link to this post -
CynthiaHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairGreat Product!Being naturally a dark brown hair color girl, I decided for a change of color last summer. Going to a light ashy brown look. Loved it! But my roots grow really fast and i was getting tired of having to dye it alot. So i decided to dye it black. After acouple of months, the color faded to a dark brown. & i redyed it. It's been about 5 months since the last time i dyed it, & when i relized i wanted my light brown color back I knew it'd be such a struggle. Tried EVERYTHING, untill i came across "one 'n only Colorfix (found in sally's). I mixed steps 1 & 2 & skipped step 3 due to some reviews saying it darkens hair. I began dying where I though was the end of my root growth. Left it on for about 10 minutes, then started my roots. When finished, I put a cap on, and waited for about an hour. I noticed my roots weren't looking much different. So i waited alittle longer (about 10 mins) then rinsed my hair out. Washed with shampoo & used alittle bit of conditioner. Let it air dry. & i immediatly noticed it lighted alot. It was a golden ashy brown kind of color with a little red. But my roots were STILL black! I still had dye left over so I used it on my roots and waited an hour. Rinsed & washed as before! they lighted up a bit. Im thinking it didn't work on my roots because my hair's naturally dark & its only ment to remove permanent dye. Im planning on getting a dark blonde soon & dying it, hopefully to get a light brown color. This product really worked other than my root incedent! The smell is pretty bad, but hey it worked! I really recommend it to remove black dye out! really works on you as well! used alittle bit of conditioner. Let it air dry.posted May 24, 2012Link to this post
Anita I.Southeastern NCHairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairMade The Red I Wanted Out BrighterI used this product because after I had my baby i've had NO luck with hair color no matter the color my hair turns some weird shade of red.. This didn't help at all...Just made it look worse and brighter orangy red. I'm disappointed and discouraged not sure what to do now. :/posted May 18, 2012Link to this post
AmsHairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairChemically Treated HairGood Stuff!This product made me skeptical at first when i was reading reviews on all the hair color removers on youtube, however. it turned out better than most any other results I have had in the passed. Started out with a medium warm black with brown tones. This took me to orange blonde. I am no pro, but this was simple, and worked the first application. If you have thick, to medium long hair, etc. i would advise buying a back up box just in case. The trick is to get it evenly distributed. A plastic shower cap with some heat really helped lighten better, and faster. One IMPORTANT thing to note, if you are planning to go lighter when finishing your remover, don't follow the final step in the directions. The Processing lotion will darken your hair to an orange brown.
I have been coloring my hair a lot the last two years. From bright red to brown, then black, and, this lifted all of it without any damage, though i used it on unwashed hair that I have been conditioning constantly for the last 3 days and nights.posted May 5, 2012Link to this post -
NicoleSt. John's NLExcellentI went from strawberry blonde hair color to black...not to mention all different colors of red. I used box die to salon. I finally wanted to get back to my natural hair color with some foils. I used is and within minutes I started seeing it go through the colors. It stinks but it works.
Totally recommend.posted Apr 26, 2012Link to this post

A Night at the Opera: Werther
This post is unforgivably tardy. Better late than never, I suppose, and while my excuses are legitimate they are still excuses. For one thing, my scanner is an incredibly old, fussy thing that doesn't always work with my new laptop. Perhaps it's acting out of spite because I abandoned it for a year while I lived in Korea. Perhaps it isn't super compatible with my Macbook. Perhaps it's just old. Whatever the reason, even after attempting to restart the laptop and the scanner several times (which was my usual fix), I haven't been able to get the scanner to talk to my laptop for a couple of weeks now.
How I Imagine My Electronic Devices Behave:
Laptop: I hate that scanner. It's old and it smells funny and I don't want to listen to it anymore.
Scanner: Eh? Did you say something, sonny? Where are my pants?
The other reason, a bit less legitimate, is that my sketches are terrible. In short: It was dark, I'm severely night-blind, and I should have brought opera glasses or binoculars or something. Noted for next time.
Though failing to capture the awesome visuals that this opera presented (the sets and costumes were wonderful, as far as I could tell, and the photos on some of my fellow blogger friends' sites confirmed it), I am finally posting the sketchpad drawings, but please be patient and understanding of the fact that I had to take them with my webcam, so they're not the best quality. Also, pardon the fingers. You can click on the images to make them bigger.
First of all, I loved all the kids. The way they lined up, the way they played in the park, the singing. Super adorable. Those costumes! Here is my attempted gestural sketch of the adorableness.
Now on to Werther and Charlotte. Their romance, at first, was very sweet. A sort of "love at first sight" kind of story. I'm a sucker for romance, even the tragic kind, so this appealed to me quite a bit. We had some hope that maybe, just maybe, things would work out for these two. I tried to capture some of the chemistry there, the lovely gesture of the way they walked down the staircase together, and Charlotte's pretty party dress (I don't think I got the design right at all, but as I mentioned, I had to guess a lot at what the blurs on stage were supposed to be).
I also sketched a bit of my favorite character in all of this, the younger sister (I think the oldest under Charlotte), Sophie. She totally had a thing for Werther, too, and she had a really cute hat with a ribbon on it. More like a bonnet, I guess? I couldn't be sure, but the huge round shape of it caught my attention. She spends most of the show either mooning after Werther (I guess she likes the emo boys), or trying to cheer people up (both Charlotte and Werther are on the receiving end of her adorable chipperness). She also has a nice chat with Albert, Charlotte's fiance.
And then things got weird and uncomfortable, and I gave up trying to strain my eyes. Werther grabbed Charlotte's skirt and made her edge away nervously. Werther rolled around on the floor. HE MADE SOPHIE CRY. Everything got reduced to chibis, all the better to express the complicated feelings. So many FEELINGS!
And then I switched to marker because I couldn't even see my pencil sketches while I was drawing them (dark room + book light = bright glare on paper = blind artist), and things got really silly. Charlotte was equated to cake (the dresses looked like you could eat them, and everyone wanted a piece of her). Albert's consoling speech to Werther came off more as gloating and rubbing it in Werther's face that he couldn't have the cake Charlotte, and man, what a nice cake it was.
Captions: "Charlotte = Cake" "Man, it is so great to be married to Charlotte. I can only IMAGINE how much it sucks to be you…" "Yeah ok bro shut up." "THIS CAKE IS SO DELICIOUS AND MOIST!"
I kind of stopped trying at all after that.
Captions: "Saddest Panda. 2nd Saddest Panda." "Be happy!" "All the unshed tears fall back onto the soul, and the drops hammer away at a sad and weary heart."
Most adorable suicide ever?
…What is wrong with me?
In conclusion, DO go see Werther, or any of the other fine productions at the MN Opera House. Better yet, go see all of them. Get some culture in your life. Listen to some amazingly talented performers sing about love and loss and regrets. It's way cooler than going to see that new Twilight movie. You'll thank me later.

The Sweetness of Cabbages and Carrots
The Cabbages have really crept up on me this year. It seems like yesterday that I was wondering if they would heart up or not and then today I realised that at least one of them was ready to harvest. The others are not far behind. So I cut one Cabbage and pulled a few Carrots too and we made Coleslaw – it was oh so sweet!
It's interesting how fresh vegetables taste a lot sweeter than older vegetables. That's because plants make sugars when they photosynthesise (they use carbon dioxide and water to make energy). The energy is sugar in the form of glucose, fructose and sucrose. These are then stored in the plant. So the quicker you eat them, the sweeter they will taste. It's more obvious with vegetables like Sweetcorn and Carrots and less obvious with leafy crops like Lettuce and Spinach.
I'm not really a big 'dessert' person but I do normally crave something sweet after a meal, even if it's only a cube of dark chocolate. But after last night's dinner I didn't. I was satisfied with the sweetness of the Cabbage and Carrots.
The Cabbage variety is Parel and the Carrots are Scarlet Nantes. The Carrots were sown direct in about March and the Cabbages were raised from seed in the greenhouse and planted out in early Spring.
I liked this Cabbage variety so much that I immediately sowed some more for the Winter vegetable garden.

Obama's National Security Speech--Eloquence, Yes; Change, Less Certain Jonathan Hafetz
President Obama's speech today at the National Defense University represents a renewed effort to frame U.S. national security policy and to impose a sense of order and coherence amid mounting criticism of drone killings and Guantanamo. While the speech could help shift the direction of U.S. counter-terrorism policy, the President's rhetorical eloquence masks deep and unresolved divides. More on compromise Sandy Levinson
Two friends made important points about m previous post. Dennis Thompson, co-author of The Spirit of Compromise, notes that the term "rotten compromise," used by the Israeli philosopher Avashi Margalit in hid book On Compromise and Rotten Compromise, identifies those compromises that are truly evil and basically to be ruled out categorically save for truly exceptional circumstances. In my own book Framed, when discussing compromises, I distinguish between the compromises on slavery, arguably truly "rotten," and that on the Senate, which was simply truly awful, but not "rotten." Wednesday, May 22, 2013
How (and why) rotten compromises are made (and justified?) Sandy Levinson
The Times reported earlier today on the truly disgraceful decision of Senate Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee to capitulate to Republican homophobia by withdrawing an amendment by Senator Leahy that would have allowed, in the Times's language "United States citizens to apply for permanent resident status, known as a green card, on behalf of their same-sex partners."

"Declare Victory and Get Out?" The Future of the AUMF Stephen Griffin
Today the Senate Armed Services Committee is conducting a hearing into the future of the September 2001 AUMF. Over at the informative Lawfare blog, the two options on offer are to replace it with an authorization tailored to the new circumstances of a dispersed war against many different terrorist groups or, in the words of Steve Vladeck and Jennifer Daskal in yesterday's NYT, to "declare peace" and get out. In a world in which we did not have to contend with political parties, I would favor the latter option. What my book Long Wars and the Constitution calls the "9/11 War" against al-Qaeda and the Taliban is overdue for a breathing space in which we can assess it from a distance. Presidents Bush and Obama certainly haven't helped -- try to recall a fundamental policy statement in which either president set forth meaningful criteria for success or failure. It's as if the presidents don't want the war to end. Why might that be? In Long Wars, I reject answers based on eighteenth-century theories about presidential motivation. In other words, it's not because they are power-hungry or want to expand the so-called "imperial presidency." Wednesday, May 15, 2013
David Ignatius can't connect the dots, either Sandy Levinson
David Ignatius is simply the latest leading pundit who demonstrates an incapaity to connect the dots relevant to his own analysis. In a column in the May 16 Washington Post, he says many altogether correct things. Writing of the current scandals, he says, "What should frighten the public is not the federal government's monstrous power but its impotence....." The only thing that Congress can do is engage in highly partisan "investigations" most of which simply can't be taken seriously (such as the sudden emergence by non-libertarian Republicans as stalwart defenders of the press after earlier behaving like mad dogs with regard to "security leaks" and demanding that no stones be left unturned in efforts to catch leakers." No doubt there is some criminal stupidity worth investigating vis-a-vis the IRS, but equally worth investigating, of course, iw the ability of big money to game the IRS system by corrupting our political system and getting tax exemption for doing it. No doubt the response of the cowed IRS will be shutting down any serious investigation of 501(c)4) groups at all, so that the American taxpayer can in effect subsdizaie our own further descent into plutocracy.

Northwestern Symposium on Martin Redish Andrew Koppelman
Northwestern Law colleague and friend Martin Redish has been hugely influential
in the free speech area. His work has
been cited by the Supreme Court a number of times, and he is probably more
influential than any other scholar in transforming the Court's approach to
commercial speech and campaign finance. Friday, May 10, 2013
3D Printers and Guns Gerard N. Magliocca
The State Department's order (or "request") to takedown software that would let people print guns on a 3D printer raises some fascinating issues. The Government wants to see whether making this software available violates certain arms export statutes, in part because 100% plastic guns would be very hard for airport security to detect. Thursday, May 09, 2013
The CIA and Drone Strikes Stephen Griffin
One of the main themes of my forthcoming book Long Wars and the Constitution is that we can gain insight into the unconventional and seemingly novel "war on terror" by looking closely at the history of the cold war. This approach is especially helpful now in assessing the charges being leveled against the CIA because of the ongoing drone war being carried out in multiple countries under the auspices of the September 2001 AUMF. It is doubtful anyone is entirely happy with the results of the drone war and the civilian casualties that are its foreseeable consequences. But the drone war illustrates several things at once about the relationship between the "9/11 War" (my preferred term for the "war on terror") and the cold war. Wednesday, May 08, 2013

John Bingham and Racial Preferences Gerard N. Magliocca
With the Court's decisions on racial preferences and on the Voting Rights Act looming, I was mulling over something that I found in a letter that John Bingham wrote in 1877. When the briefs were being written in the University of Texas case, I was asked by some attorneys whether Bingham said anything about the subject that they could use. I said no. Upon reflection, though, I suppose he he did say one thing that was interesting. Friday, May 03, 2013
Announcing Long Wars and the Constitution Stephen Griffin
Why Everyone Should Read Jack Goldsmith, "The Trust Destroyer" Sandy Levinson
Another must-read piece, also, like Steve Coll's New Yorker essay, a review of Mark Mazzetti's The Way of the Knife: The CIA, a Secret Army, and a War at the Ends of the Earth, is Jack Goldsmith's "The Trust Destroyer," in the current New Republic. Goldsmith (a friend and sometime colleague at the Harvard Law School) is usually thought of as being on the more conservative side of the spectrum from Coll, but their take on the book, and on the deficiencies of the Obama presidency--again, this is relevant to Mary Dudziak's critique--is remarkably similar. The Administration is obsessed with secrecy and fundamentally unwilling to work with Congress (perhaps understandably, in terms of contemporary partisan politics), and the cost is (justified) erosion of trust in the presidential apparatus, including Obama himself. Should we have a genuinely public debate about what forms new congressional legislation might take with regard to regulation of drones and the use of special forces in countries with which we are not at war, I'm not positive how I'd come out, but I agree with both Goldsmith and Coll that the quality of our democracy is being eroded by the coy nature of such debate as occurs, where an Administration official makes a speech, at Oxford, Harvard, or wherever, or the President says something cryptic at a news conference, or, most notoriously, someone leaks the "White Paper" without, however, publicly addressing what many of us view as its near-bizarre notion of "imminence" with regard to justifying assassination. [UPDATE: A major theme of Steve Griffin's fine new book, which I happily blurbed, is that we have never truly thought through the legal doctrines required to justify what has become basically common practice since Truman's intervention in Korea. Steve emphasizes not only the changing nature of the challenges facing the US and its presidents, but also, crucially, the remarkably enhanced capabilities that presidents have in their capacity as "commanders-in-chief." In addition to weaponry that even Truman, who "dropped the Bomb," could not have envisioned, there is also the creation of "special operating forces" and the parallel airforce now apparently under the control of the CIA. Erie Railroad v. Tompkins and the New Deal Constitution JB
Last week Richard Epstein and I were on a panel at AEI on the New Deal Constitution, commemorating the 75th anniversary of the decisions in Erie Railroad v. Tompkins and United States v. Carolene Products. The video is available here. Michael Greve kicks it off with a fifteen minute introduction to the two cases; Richard's talk begins about 14:30, and my talk begins about 24:55. I discussed both Erie and Carolene Products in my talk; in this blog post, I will say a few words about Erie. Thursday, May 02, 2013
Must We Be Faithful to Original Meaning? JB
I've posted my latest article, "Must We Be Faithful to Original Meaning?" on SSRN. The essay came out of a May 2012 conference on Living Originalism held at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. It expands on some of the arguments I made in the book for my version of original meaning originalism. The essay closes by discussing a few analogies between different versions of originalism in American legal theory and different theories of Biblical and Talmudic interpretation in Jewish law. Here is the abstract: The Left's Failure and the Mismatch Effect Jason Mazzone
Brian Tamanaha's essay, "The Failure of Crits and Leftist Law Professors to Defend Progressive Causes" is characteristically provocative. Here is one especially interesting nugget from Brian's essay: Wednesday, May 01, 2013
Why everyone should read Steve Coll's review in the New Yorker: A point on Mary's side Sandy Levinson
Anyone interested in the more ominous side of the Obama presidency, where it is reasonable, as Mary Dudziak has recently suggested, to focus more on the contingency of who is President than on the deep structures established by the Constitution, should read Steve Coll's review in the current (May 6) New Yorker of two recent books on the rise of targetted assassinations (and much else) by Mark Marzetti (The Way of the Knife) and Jeremy Scahill (Dirty Wars). The single most depressing line is a (purported) quote of the President made during a Situation Room meeting in which a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff questioned the rise of a parallel airforce controlled by the CIA: According to Marzetti, Obama said, "The C.I.A. gets what it wants." (One assumes that this was a performative utterance, expressing Obama's own preferences, rather than a merely descriptive statement made by a man lamenting that he did not have the power, as President of the United States, to prevent the CIA getting "what it wants.") Were this a statement of George W. Bush, I presume that many people would be up in arms (so to speak). Coll suggests that the message of the two books, and much contemporary journalism, is that the Obama Administration, far more than its predecessor Bush Administration, has adopted a policy of cold-blooded assassination without any public disclosure, save for the "White Paper," of even the general criteria, let alone the specifics, that have resulted in de-facto capital punishment for an undisclosed, by obviously non-trivial, number of America's enemies. (At one point, the CIA claimed, preposterously, that there was no collateral damage in the drone attacks, that everyone attacked was in fact an enemy, a position similar to that taken in Vietnam during Operation Phoenix.) The Obama Administration's position is ultimately "Trust Us" (and accept the fact that we're leaving a legacy of remarkably unconstrained powers, at least in conventional terms where we look to courts, Congress, or an informed press to supply some constraints). The Health Care Case -- The Book! Nate Persily
Oxford Press has just published The Health Care Case: The Supreme Court's Decision and Its Implications, which I edited along with Gillian Metzger and Trevor Morrison. Many Balkinization bloggers have contributed chapters. The Table of Contents appears below: Defining "the recess" Gerard N. Magliocca
The Noel Canning case addressing the President's recess appointment power should be the star of the next Supreme Court Term, assuming that certiorari is granted. I want to raise the following question about the panel opinion's interpretation of "the recess" to mean only an intersession recess.

Maine recount keeps Romney on top, but new results likely to fan flames
But the new results likely won't quell the outrage or suspicion that has engulfed the Maine GOP since Saturday because so many questions still remain.
On Saturday, Mitt Romney was declared the winner, beating Ron Paul by 194 votes out of 5,585 cast, according to the state GOP. But the numbers did not include the vote totals from several communities, including Waterville and much of Waldo County, because of computer or clerical errors, Maine GOP chairman Charlie Webster said.
Other communities' vote totals were entered incorrectly, he said, and Washington County's caucuses weren't included in the original totals after being postponed until this Saturday because of a snowstorm.
Webster said they've now added up all the votes from Maine except from Washington County, but the new numbers will likely only increase suspicion among Paul's supporters and Webster's detractors.
It turns out Paul won many of the communities that hadn't previously been counted. Paul beat Romney 21 to 5 in Waterville, according to the new GOP data.
Paul also beat Romney 72 to 59 in Waldo County. But the vote tallies were revised enough in other towns to add to Romney's lead, according to the new data.
In Limington, Paul originally received 20 votes. But after the recount, Paul received zero votes. In Portland, Paul originally beat Romney 106-91. But after the recount, Romney beat Paul 106-91.
In Bar Harbor, the GOP originally said 22 people voted. But after the recount, it said 27 voted and the five extra votes went to Romney.
In Trenton, the GOP originally said 15 people voted. But after the recount, it said 20 voted and all five extra votes went to Romney.
Likely adding fuel to the flames, Webster said Friday night some towns votes still weren't included in the recount if they voted after 5 p.m. on Feb. 11 or if he couldn't get in touch with them.
Late Friday, a town-by-town tally of the recount still showed some towns with zero votes. The state party was unable to contact every single town because it does not have on file a GOP chairman for every town, Webster said.
"We made every effort to reach out to every town we could reach," Webster said. After days of local and national scrutiny, the Maine Republican Party has been recounting the results of its presidential caucuses.
In addition to Romney increasing his lead in certain areas, there were many other incongruities between the old tallies and new tallies. In New Gloucester, for example, the state GOP originally said 74 people voted.
Now it says 102 people voted. Nearly all of the extra votes went to Rick Santorum. The new numbers set the stage for today's caucuses in Washington County. The Maine GOP initially set a time frame of Feb. 4-11 for individual caucuses around the state to be included in the official tally. The Paul campaign protested that not including Washington County robbed it of the chance to overtake Romney. Then it became evident that vote totals from several communities were left out of the official count.
Some other communities' vote totals were entered incorrectly. Those mistakes have been corrected, Webster said Friday. The state's 24 delegates to the Republican National Convention won't be chosen until the state party convention in May; and three of them will be state GOP officials. A total of 1,144 delegates are needed nationally to win the GOP nomination.

Whats the worst map on mw3 wii
Like (0)
Carbon.. worst ever bro... sucks
I detest Lockdown. I hate it even worse than Downturn. I don't know why, but on Lockdown I ALWAYS do bad. Plus everyone camps in that one room.
intercharge. That map is just as bad as it can be.
I hate fallen..
Bakaara is super annoying for me.
all maps are awesome.
except arkaden.
that map sucks more than an industrial sized shop vac.
oh arkaden. It's so bad I forgot it was even in the game.
officilly changing my answer to this
Downturn period.
oh god, I just like pretty much all the answers. I pretty much hate all maps...
I think I only semi-like Mission, resistance, and bootleg. Thats only if I can get into a good lobby with decent players who give me a challenge or at least attempt to give me a challenge. As in they go out trying to pick a fight with me instead of acting like noobs
Yeah i hate ressistance
Why does everyone hate downturn? I LOVE that map. Wish it got picked more. I also love carbon. Ninja Pro and hunting footsteps. Love doing that on both those maps.
If anything I hate Dome but probably just because it is played SOOOO much. FMG9's can really ruin a match on that map too and that happens a lot. Not a huge fan of mission. It's always a camp fest.
Okay, village, why?
well if you look at the word village you see that the wii actually is getting trolled by treyarch.
^ ^
the word lag.
what if the word vilge was called wii? then it would say wiilag.
I like all maps except village, silentshot got it spot on. In fact, I have only played village once and everytime i connect, i leave.
The map is not bad don't get me wrong; but the frame rate is TERRIBLE. My Wii works so hard I'm scared to even play the map
Thats pretty clever silent
I'd have to say Arkaden; Some killstreaks are virtually useless in that map. I kinda dont like Bootleg either, but then again thats where i got my first MOAB. lol.
true the killstreaks in arkaden arent that good : /
dome, arkaden and village. people usually all seem to use the same kinds of weapons on those maps when I play, usually smgs w/ rapid fire or semi-auto sniper rifles
lol, dome is made for that
Downturn and lockdown. I've learned to like bootleg and arkaden.
The only one I don't like is Arkaden. And that's only because I don't do well on it. (I noticed that this is the reason for most people's dislikes of one or more maps.) I have tried camping, run-n-gun, stealth, brashness, and more styles and unless I go against a pretty bad team or I am with at least another strong ally, I end up negative. (I wonder how much of that is due to hacking, though. I have never seen so much warping in MW3 as I have seen on that map.)
On the other hand, I really like the overall designs of just about all the maps. These maps really are different from previous CoD maps, which means a gamer's play style has to change to compensate. As others have mentioned before, BO had more tactical, methodical gameplay (that's not to say you still couldn't run-n-gun). Most MW3 maps make it more difficult for that kind of play, although I submit the following in support of tactical play in MW3:
-Recon Pro is awesome if you play as a team. A medium-to-long range tag can help SMG users put the enemy down. RP (enemies are tagged for 6 or 12 seconds) can make your team seem like it has inifinite UAV when it doesn't.
-Portable Radar is awesome if you play as a team. Multiple PRs spread out across an area of a map can make it seem like your team has infinite UAV when it doesn't.
-UAV-only streaks are great if you play as a team. This isn't infinite UAV, but if you have a teammate who has hardline as a second tier perk, the UAVs come in every two kills.
-Aligning perks across team/clan members works very well. One person can do recon, another can shoot from medium/long range, another be a tank, etc.
With these tools and play styles, MW3 can become a very fun, tactically based game. If enemies figure out your tactics (someone is running assassin, dead silence, or sitrep), then you have to change styles to adjust.
My biggest issue with the ACTUAL game (not hacking) - and it always has been - is the lag. First, I was going to throw the game in the garbage just before lag shooting became lag compensation. That made it better. But it's so dang frustrating to play a match and go 25-3-6 and then the next match go 4-5-15 because the first game, people just stood there (I know they really weren't; it was LC), and the second game, I was instakilled with heatseeking laser bullets (that's LC, too). BO had this right; MW3 still hasn't found a happy medium. What's worse is that if I try to "fix" this by using a LAN adapter to connect, the LC gets worse. I get killed out of nowhere from people I can't see from around corners they haven't even come CLOSE to passing yet (on my Wii, at least).
Whoa...wall of text.
You have some interesting points. But, id have to say that when i had Beast Ops (it got scratched ) its gameplay is more-or-less the same as MW3's. Its the same run 'n gun action. I mean, MW3 is as tactical/methodical as a newborn baby, but thats the entire series, not just MW3.
Bakaara u cant see any one thats camping
Got my first MOAB there
All of them. Everytime I put the MW3 disc in my Wii, I feel like I should be playing Beast Ops instead.
Downturn, Downturn, DOWNTURN YOU SON OF A B*TCH!
^******* love dat
Lockdown. Lockdown. LOCKDOWN YOU SON OF A B*TCH MAP F*CK YOU EERRGH!!!
That's for me.
Hands down, The map Village. Eveysingle time I get on that map, there has to be lag.

The question everybody wants answered is, does Actor Will Smith love Jada or-has he ever loved her? It seems as though he is so miserable, he recently opened up to the press about his remorse for his divorce from his previous wife. He admitted that the "most painful loss" he ever endured in his life was his divorce from first wife, Sheree Zampino in 1992; they divorced in 1995. Sheree is the mother of his first child and oldest son, (Willard Christopher Smith) Trey.

Bob Bashara pleads guilty to hiring a hit man to murder handyman
For the Oakland Press
In an unexpected move, Bob Bashara pleaded guilty Thursday to trying to arrange the murder of handyman Joe Gentz — the man who reportedly has confessed to killing Bashara's wife — and now faces at least four years in prison.
In a hearing that lasted less than five minutes, Bashara, 54, wearing a rumpled tan suit, stood before Wayne County Circuit Court Judge Bruce Morrow and pleaded guilty to one count of solicitation of murder. He then read a brief handwritten statement from a yellow legal pad.
"In June of 2012, I foolishly and regrettably offered to pay Steve Tibaudo to find someone to kill Joseph Gentz. This took place in Wayne County," he said.
Before Bashara read his statement, Assistant Wayne County Prosecutor Lisa Lindsey told the judge that prosecutors did not enter into any plea-bargain arrangement with him.
"The defendant is pleading as charged," Lindsey said. "There is no charge reduction in this case."
In court Thursday, prosecutors said sentencing guidelines for Bashara range between 84 and 135 months, while defense attorney Mark Kriger contends the range is 51 to 85 months. But, either sentence would be better than life in prison, which is the maximum punishment the solicitation to murder charge carries.
Police and prosecutors said Bashara plotted with Tibaudo, a Detroit furniture store owner, to have Gentz killed in the William Dickerson Detention Facility where Gentz is being held on charges he killed Jane Bashara.
According to prosecutors, Bashara grew increasingly worried about Gentz's upcoming testimony in the Jane Bashara case and sought to have his former handyman killed while in jail to prevent him from taking the stand.
Tibaudo has testified in previous hearings that Bashara gave him a $2,000 down payment on the $20,000 cost of the hit. Continued...
After Bashara's initial offer, Tibaudo went to police who convinced him to wear a hidden wire to secretly record future conversations with Bashara. Portions of the conversations were played in court during Bashara's preliminary examination.
Gentz, formerly of St. Clair Shores, reportedly told authorities that he killed 56-year-old Jane Bashara, a Mount Clemens native, inside of her garage on Jan. 24 at her husband's direction. Her body was found inside of her SUV in Detroit the following day. An autopsy determined she had been beaten and strangled.
Gentz has been charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder, although prosecutors have not yet named who he allegedly conspired with. It's been widely speculated that the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office eventually plans to charge Bashara in connection with his wife's murder.
Prosecutor Kym Worthy did not have a comment on Thursday's developments and Kriger also would not say whether he expects Bashara to face additional charges.
Grosse Pointe Park Police Chief David Hiler, who has named Bashara as a person of interest in his wife's slaying, said investigators are continuing to work on the case and are closely following the court proceedings.
"We are not yet done with the homicide investigation — it is continuing," Hiler said.
Hiler acknowledged there has been criticism of his department for the pace of the investigation, but added Bashara's plea shows Grosse Pointe Park investigators were on the right track all along.
"We are conducting a thorough and complete investigation," he said.
It's not clear why Bashara was in court on Thursday as his trial date had been scheduled for Nov. 12. His next date will be for sentencing Nov. 20.
The dispute between the prosecution and defense over the sentencing guidelines centers on a process known as offense variables, a system where points are added regarding a number of factors that are taken into account such as whether the defendant is a repeat offender or whether drugs were involved in the commission of the crime. Continued...
Wayne County prosecutors want an "offense variable 10," which under Michigan law indicates the exploitation of a vulnerable victim such as a physical or mental disability or the offender abused his authority status. Kriger maintains there was no predatory action and therefore the variable should not apply in this case.
Meanwhile, Bashara's former defense attorney, David Griem, is scheduled for a show cause hearing Friday afternoon on two charges in 36th District Court.
Griem allegedly shared discovery information from the solicitation case with Bashara's mother and other relatives. Prosecutors say that's a violation of an order that prevented information from being shared with third parties.
In a second show-cause, Griem is accused by Susan Reed, Gentz's attorney, of filing a subpoena for a non-existent case.
Bashara was in court for a pretrial hearing, WXYZ reports.
Gentz is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Jane Bashara.

GALLIPOLIS — The Gallia County Agricultural Center Board hosted a catered dinner for the Gallipolis FFA Soil Judging teams on Monday at Bob Evans Farm to recognize the students for their outstanding accomplishments at the State Soil Judging competition. Both teams are headed to the National Competition in Oklahoma this Saturday. This will be the first time since the 1950s that a team from southern Ohio has been represented at the national contest.
The Gallipolis FFA placed first in the agricultural use event and fourth in the urban event at the state contest which qualified them for the national contest.
The state contest was held at Malabar Farms in Richland County, Ohio. About 185 students participated in the agricultural use contest and about 180 students competed in the urban use contest. Five schools from each district in Ohio were represented totaling about 50 schools in each contest.
The ag use team included Briggs Shoemaker, Cody Call, Scott Warren and Chris Elliott. Shoemaker was the team high scoring individual netting first place in the state.
The urban use team included Thomas Holley, Jordyn Benson, Elizabeth Ours and Jimmy Clagg. Holley was the team high scoring individual placing second in the state.
The Agricultural Center Board, Gallia County Farm Bureau and the Gallia-Jackson-Vinton JVSD are sponsoring the students' upcoming trip to Oklahoma.

The Thornycroft Mighty Antar was originally developed in 1949 as a super-heavy civilian 6x4 tractor for hauling steel pipeline sections across the Iraqi desert. It was named in honour of the Arabian Poet-warrior Antar Ibn Shadded (famed for his strength and endurance).
At the time ANTAR was the largest tractor ever made in the UK and was further developed as a tank transporter for the British Army, and over a period of 35 years from the early 1950's to mid 1980's, Mighty ANTAR performed all the British Army heavy haulage tasks. Whether the load was a; Centurion, Conqueror, Chieftain or a host of lesser tonnage AFV's, ANTAR lugged them around from A to B.
The final Mk-3 version was a major rework and incorporated the Rolls-Royce 16.2 litre C8SFL/843 diesel engine. The revised bodywork with single radiator gave a more sleek look. All the lessons learned from the early vehicles were incorporated into the Mk-3, making it a refined, reliable and professional classic.
ANTAR was ultimately replaced by the equally impressive Scammell Commander and those familiar with Commander will see from this model how that design evolved.
This extensive 1:35th scale resin model kit by David Jane & Rob Tearle depicts the FV12004 Mk-3 (5th Wheel) version for towing semi-trailers. The kit comes with an etched brass detailing set, extensive full colour decals and full chassis, cab interior, engine, transmission and winch details, and an optional canvas crew shelter over the winch area.
We have matching trailer kits (shown below).
