Modern Midwest Furniture Company Round-up
Even though we ought to know better, we occasionally fall for the false thinking that the bulk of the best and brightest new furniture designers tend to come from either one side of the country or another — Los Angeles or New York. That's just not always true.
Of course there are brilliant and creative design minds located all over the U.S., but we've been noticing an uptick of great ideas coming from smack dab in the middle of our country. These Midwestern designers and the cities they live in might not have the same name recognition as L.A. or Brooklyn, but the pieces they're producing are lovely, exciting, bold, fresh and gorgeous.
We rounded up five Midwestern furniture companies that we've either just come across and/or definitely think you should know about in honor of furniture month here on Apartment Therapy. And in addition to them all being talented, they all share another similar benefit: their central location is great for shipping!
1-2) Eastvold Furniture Dennison, Minnesota With heavy Mid-Century Modern influences, Eastvold brings back simplicity and honesty with clean lines, crisp materials like wood and metal and a fun style. Products shown: Classic Credenza and Elko Coffee Table
3-4) Misewell Milwaukee, Wisconsin Bold and bright pops of color with unique shapes characterize the style of this Milwaukee modern furniture company. Products shown: 1/2 Nelson and Sixagon
5-6) Ali Sandifer Studio Chicago, Illinois Slightly more complex shapes mingle with sturdy materials to create highly functioning and ultra modern pieces that are sure to become heirloom. Products shown: Heiss Desk and Mag Coffee Table
7-8) Loll Duluth, Minnesota This isn't your typical outdoor furniture company. Designs are based around the idea of fun and functionality, and these pieces come in both classier, neutral colors and bold, bright colors, for whatever your outdoor space's personality. Products shown: Racer Lounge Chair and Racer Side Car Table
9-10) Blu Dot Minneapolis, Minnesota We'd be surprised if you haven't heard of Blu Dot yet, but not as many people know that they are stationed in Minneapolis. And, they made such a splash with some of their new designs at this year's ICFF they're worth a mention. Products shown: Lily Pad Coffee Table and Dang Media Stand
This is of course just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to amazing modern furniture talent coming out of the Midwest. Why don't you help us add to the list? Share your favorite Midwest-based modern furniture company or designer.

This was early this year, around February/March. My theory is that one of the guys were simply wrong. There are probably few people at Google that have 100% insight into everything that's going on. Oops, gotta run - have a plane to Seattle to catch.

FBI Scrutinized on Petraeus
Complaints by Female Social Planner Led to Email Trail That Undid CIA Chief
A social planner's complaints about email stalking launched the monthslong criminal inquiry that led to a woman romantically linked to former Gen. David Petraeus and to his abrupt resignation Friday as Central Intelligence Agency chief.
The emails began arriving in Jill Kelley's inbox in May, U.S. officials familiar with the probe said. Ms. Kelley, who helped organize social events at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., told the Federal Bureau of Investigation about the emails, which she viewed as harassing, the U.S. officials said.
That FBI investigation into who sent the emails led over a period of months to Paula Broadwell, Mr. Petraeus's biographer, with whom he was having an extramarital affair, according to the U.S. officials.
FBI agents were pursuing what they thought was a potential cybercrime, or a breach of classified information.
Instead, the trail led to what officials said were sexually explicit emails between two lovers, from an account Mr. Petraeus used a pseudonym to establish, and to the destruction of Mr. Petraeus's painstakingly crafted image as a storied Army general.
Mr. Petraeus admitted to an affair in a letter to CIA employees announcing his resignation.
In the aftermath of the investigation, some lawmakers are aiming criticism at the FBI and the Obama administration, including Attorney General Eric Holder, who knew about the email link to Mr. Petraeus as far back as late summer. A House Republican leader also learned of the matter in October. Some argue that Mr. Petraeus shouldn't have resigned; others said that the FBI should have formally notified Congress earlier.
The top Senate Democrat on intelligence issues said Sunday she would investigate the FBI's handling of the inquiry, and why the matter wasn't shared earlier with Congress.
"It was like a lightning bolt," said Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) on "Fox News Sunday." "This is something that could have had an effect on national security. I think we should have been told."
That Mr. Petraeus was having an affair wasn't the point of the FBI probe, according to the U.S. officials briefed on the matter.
The FBI investigation began with five to 10 emails beginning around May and received by Ms. Kelley, according to U.S. officials.
The precise nature of Ms. Kelley's relationships with Ms. Broadwell and Mr. Petraeus, who ran the Tampa-based U.S. Central Command from 2008 to 2010, weren't known Sunday. Attempts to reach Ms. Broadwell and Ms. Kelley were unsuccessful.
In a statement Sunday, according to the Associated Press, Ms. Kelley and her husband, Scott, said they and their family "have been friends with General Petraeus and his family for over five years" and asked for privacy.
Ms. Kelley didn't know who sent the emails. Some appeared to be accusing her of an inappropriate relationship but didn't name Mr. Petraeus. Agents determined the emails were sent from an account shared by Ms. Broadwell and her husband, who live in North Carolina, the officials said.
But the agents spent weeks piecing together who may have sent them. They used metadata footprints left by the emails to determine what locations they were sent from. They matched the places, including hotels, where Ms. Broadwell was during the times the emails were sent.
FBI agents and federal prosecutors used the information as probable cause to seek a warrant to monitor Ms. Broadwell's email accounts.
They learned that Ms. Broadwell and Mr. Petraeus had set up private Gmail accounts to use for their communications, which included explicit details of a sexual nature, according to U.S. officials. But because Mr. Petraeus used a pseudonym, agents doing the monitoring didn't immediately uncover that he was the one communicating with Ms. Broadwell.
By late summer, after the monitoring of Ms. Broadwell's emails uncovered the link to Mr. Petraeus, prosecutors and agents alerted senior officials at FBI and the Justice Department, including Mr. Holder, U.S. officials say. The investigators never monitored Mr. Petraeus's email accounts, the officials say.
In September, prosecutors and agents began a legal analysis to determine whether there were any charges that could be brought. Among the discussions: whether to interview Ms. Broadwell, who was the focus of the criminal probe, and Mr. Petraeus.
Top officials signed off on the interviews, which occurred in late September and October, just before the U.S. presidential election. During Ms. Broadwell's first interview in September, she admitted to the affair and turned over her computer, the officials said.
On her computer, investigators found classified documents, the U.S. officials said, a discovery that raised new concerns.
At Mr. Petraeus's interview in the week before the election, he also admitted the affair and said he hadn't provided the classified documents to Ms. Broadwell. Agents conducted a second interview with Ms. Broadwell on Nov. 2. She also said Mr. Petraeus wasn't the source of the documents.
That information helped resolve concerns that there was a national-security breach, although the source of the documents hadn't been determined. The officials offered no specifics about what was in the documents.
Despite efforts at FBI and the Justice Department to keep the investigation closely held, word of it leaked to a small number of lawmakers. Rep. David Reichert (R., Wash.) received a tip from an FBI employee that there was a national-security issue related to Mr. Petraeus, according to an aide. He forwarded the information to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R., Va.), who alerted the FBI in October.
"I was contacted by an FBI employee [who was] concerned that sensitive, classified information may have been compromised and made certain Director [Robert] Mueller was aware of these serious allegations and the potential risk to our national security," Mr. Cantor said in a statement, which was reported by the New York Times on Sunday.
FBI and Justice Department officials reassessed their investigation over the next several days and determined there wasn't sufficient cause to bring charges. They advised the Director of National Intelligence of their findings at about 5 p.m. Tuesday, Election Day.
Shawn Turner, a spokesman for Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, said Mr. Clapper spoke with Mr. Petraeus that evening and the following day and urged him to step down.
"Speaking as a friend, colleague and fellow general officer, Gen. Clapper urged Gen. Petraeus to step down," Mr. Turner said. Mr. Clapper is a retired Air Force lieutenant general, and Mr. Petraeus retired from the Army as a four-star general before assuming the helm at CIA.
Mr. Clapper informed the White House on Wednesday that Mr. Petraeus was considering resigning, Mr. Turner said.
Mr. Obama learned of the affair Thursday morning and met that day with Mr. Petraeus, who offered his resignation. Mr. Obama didn't immediately accept it and took a day to consider it.
An extramarital affair doesn't necessarily disqualify an official from serving as director of the CIA, and there are employees at the agency who have engaged in extramarital affairs without being forced to leave the agency.
Mr. Petraeus believed he should resign because the CIA would have viewed a lower-level employee engaged in an affair to be improper and that the director should set an example by publicly accepting responsibility, according to a person familiar with the events.
The affair ended more than four months ago, though Mr. Petraeus continued to advise Ms. Broadwell on her research into innovation in the 101st Airborne Division in Northern Iraq in 2003, which then- Maj. Gen. Petraeus commanded.
On Friday afternoon, as word began to leak out that Mr. Petraeus might be leaving his post, a shocked Ms. Feinstein, who chairs the Senate intelligence committee, called Mr. Petraeus to ask what was going on, and questioned whether it was necessary to step down. She said Sunday in the "Fox News Sunday" interview that, given all the details of the affair, she now believes Mr. Petraeus was right to resign.
Later Friday afternoon, Mr. Clapper's top deputy called key congressional leaders.
Ms. Feinstein remains frustrated that she wasn't told of the affair earlier. "We should have been told," she said in an interview, adding that she is going to look into why the FBI, which is one of the 16 U.S. intelligence agencies, didn't notify the leaders of the intelligence committees in advance.
U.S. spy agencies are required to inform leaders of the intelligence committees of "significant intelligence activities," and the affair represented the potential for a security compromise, a congressional aide said.
However, U.S. officials briefed on the matter said the probe was closely held among officials at the FBI and Justice under a long-standing policy not to divulge information on continuing criminal investigations.
The disclosure policy was reinforced in a 2007 memorandum by Michael Mukasey, who was then attorney general under President George W. Bush. The memorandum, issued in the wake of the scandal over the firings of U.S. attorneys, sought to remind department employees that contacts with the White House and Congress about pending criminal matters were off limits.
On Sunday, U.S. intelligence officials said their briefing of intelligence committee members on Friday was appropriate. "We have a statutory requirement to keep Congress fully informed," a senior intelligence official said. "We notified Congress of the situation."
The timing of events near the election has raised suspicions among some lawmakers that the administration was seeking to hide embarrassing news before the presidential balloting took place.
"The FBI has a lot of explaining to do, and so does the White House," said Rep. Peter King (R., N.Y.), chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee. "I have a hard time accepting most of the story we've heard so far. It doesn't add up."

When baking or cooking and in need of an egg, I use a mixture of ground flax and water as a substitute. This is not a novel idea; many packages of ground flax have directions to do it! There are a few ways to do it, but I have found the best way (and by I have found, I mean my mom showed me..hah!) to do it is like so:
Put 1 tbsp of flax and 3 tbsp of water into a small pot and bring it to a rolling boil. Let boil for 1-2 minutes, remove from heat and whisk vigorously for about 1 minute. The flax will become especially nasty and gunky sort of like snot. MMMMM! It will hang off your fork (or more high-tech whisking mechanism) in a particularly disgusting way, and you will know it is ready to be added to your muffins, veggie burgers, brownies, whatever.
One batch equals 1 egg substitution; if your recipe calls for two eggs, double the flax mixture, and so on..

After a monumental crash and burn followed by the inspiring, if vague, Betaworks-led reimagining efforts, the new Digg v.1 is here. At the end of last month, the ReThinkDigg movement was launched and the acquiring company vowed to pick up the pieces and put it all back together again – and if this first look is a good indication of Digg's future, then that may have just been accomplished.
"After an intense month and a half, we managed to get the new Digg up and running on a fresh code base and infrastructure," the team announced via its blog. "We now have a solid foundation on which to build, and we expect to build fast."
True to their word, Betworks scrapped nearly everything from what it inherited with the Digg buy. Part of the original site's destruction was due to internal issues, but the fact that users have turned to Twitter and Facebook for social news has inarguably also been a large part of the problem. The new Digg doesn't so much compete with these two platforms as try to repackage what they're doing in a more reader-friendly fashion. Users can sign up for the service with Facebook Connect, and individual stories can be shared to the iPhone, out on Twitter or Facebook, and of course, you can Digg them. One of the most interesting features falls under the Popular tab, where you can see Twitter posts to submitted links and graphics showing off the period of the time over which the news has been peaking.
We have no shortage of news readers at our disposal, and so any makeover Digg gets is going to face plenty of competition. Rebuilding the application is one thing, and the Betaworks team has done an admirable job of that. But reinspiring the community is something else entirely, and it's a much more crowded market than it was in Digg's hay day.

Dodge Challenger Mopar '14: SEMA Show
What Is It?
The Mopar '14 is a very limited edition of the 2014 Dodge Challenger. It's the fifth in a series of special Mopar cars Chrysler has created annually for SEMA. This one is powered by a 5.7-liter HEMI V8 and brings back the shaker hood that Mopar popularized on its muscle cars of the 1970s. The Dodge Challenger Mopar '14 includes a pile of performance and appearance goodies, from 20-inch gloss black wheels to Mopar logos stitched into the seat backs.
How Much?
Pricing has not yet been announced, but we expect prices of $40,000 to $50,000, depending on equipment.
When Can You Get It?
Ordering will begin in March, with vehicle deliveries starting in the second quarter of 2014.
Add It to Your Shopping List Because...
Current Challenger styling certainly recalls the look of Mopar cars from the early 1970s, the heyday of the muscle car. But adding touches such as Mopar striping and a big, cold-air intake extending up through the car's shaker hood makes it an even more authentic muscle car. Plus, buyers can opt for one of Mopar's new performance-enhancing Scat Packages. The real reason to choose the Dodge Challenger Mopar '14, though, is exclusivity. Dodge will make only 100 examples.
Other Cars to Consider
Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 -- This upcoming version of the Camaro also sports throwback styling and promises blistering performance to match.
Used Ford Mustang Boss 302 -- Ford built the Boss 302 for 2012 and 2013, so you'll have to shop for a used one. But it's a compelling choice among modern muscle cars, both in style and in performance.
Dodge Challenger R/T-- Instead of buying into the pricier and more exclusive Mopar '14, choose a standard R/T with the HEMI motor and add the shaker hood, which will soon be available as an accessory from Mopar.
Used Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG -- German muscle doesn't sport the same fierce look as American muscle, but it certainly packs similar power under the hood. Plus, you can buy a nice used one for less than the price of the Mopar '14.

MILWAUKEE (AP) Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Yovani Gallardo was arrested on a drunken-driving charge Tuesday after authorities say he was driving on a city highway with a blood-alcohol content nearly three times the legal limit.
Deputies responded about 2 a.m. to a report of a possibly intoxicated driver, Milwaukee County sheriff's spokeswoman Fran McLaughlin said. She said a caller reported seeing a driver repeatedly swerving between lanes, and deputies spotted Gallardo driving alone at 40 mph in a 55-mph zone.
"He was very cooperative," McLaughlin said. "He said he had a couple of beers."
The arrest report says Gallardo had red glassy eyes, slurred speech and an odor of alcohol, and that he failed field-sobriety tests.
Authorities say a breath test revealed a blood-alcohol level of 0.22, nearly three times the legal limit of 0.08, and the reading was matched by a second breath test following his arrest.
The Brewers issued a statement saying they were aware of Gallardo's situation.
"We have expressed our disappointment to him and know he understands that behavior of this nature is of great concern to everyone in the organization," the statement said. "Yovani has acknowledged the seriousness of this incident and is taking full accountability for his actions."
Gallardo spoke to reporters at Miller Park on Tuesday before the Brewers prepared to open a three-game series with the San Francisco Giants.
"You obviously know why I'm here," Gallardo said. "What happened last night, I made a bad decision. I made a mistake and I'm sure I lost a lot of respect from the fans and I just want to apologize to the fans, my teammates, my family.
"Like I said, it's just a bad call. Something I shouldn't have done. I regret it. At this point, obviously, there's nothing I can do about it now. It happened. I just want to apologize to the whole organization and the people of Milwaukee for my actions. It's just ... it's not very easy. It's one of those things... I truly am sorry.
"I'm going to make sure something like this never happens again. Whatever circumstances, consequences ... whatever I have to do so this won't happen again, I'm going to do it."
Gallardo did not take questions from reporters.
"I don't know how long it's going to take to get this cleared up; the whole situation that happened," Gallardo said. "The main thing, like I said, I came out here to apologize. Especially to the people that look up to me. Obviously, it's something that I regret. I'm going to make sure it never happens again."
Brewers manager Ron Roenicke spoke to Gallardo, who is still expected to make his next scheduled start on Thursday.
"I've talked to him and (general manager) Doug (Melvin) has talked to him," Roenicke said. "You guys have talked to him. He feels bad about what happened and knows he shouldn't have been in a position to have anything like that come up."
"As of right now, he's starting Thursday, yes." Roenicke said.
In Wisconsin, first-offense drunken driving is a citation, not a misdemeanor or felony charge. McLaughlin said Gallardo faces nearly $800 in fines for drunken driving and for unsafe driving.
Gallardo was a 16-game winner last season, his fourth consecutive season with at least 200 strikeouts.
He gave up six runs in a loss Saturday to St. Louis and is 0-1 in three starts this season with a 6.61 ERA. The Brewers entered Tuesday's game at 3-8, worst in the NL Central Division.

Obama's Post-Election MilitancyWritten by Stephen Lendman Subject: WAR: About that War
by Stephen Lendman
Obama didn't miss a beat. He picked up where he left off. He's America's most belligerent leader. He's waging multiple direct and proxy wars abroad and at home by other means.
Despite pressing unresolved domestic issues, he celebrated his electoral victory belligerently.
On November 7, he bombed Yemen. Washington's been waging proxy war there for years. Daily attacks occur. Drones are the weapon of choice.
Remote warriors conduct sanitized killing on the cheap. Death and injury tolls rise. Mostly civilians are harmed. On November 8, Press TV headlined "US drone kills three in Yemen." US media scoundrels ignored it.
Hours after Obama's reelection, a "drone strike near the Yemeni capital has killed three people and injured two others."
Deadly attacks persist. International, constitutional, and US statute laws are violated. Ordinary people are harmed most. Civilian men, women and children are terrorized and traumatized.
Obama's victory lap also included more Iranian sanctions. Multiple rounds imposed are illegal. A November 8 State Department press release announced the latest measure, headlining:
"Designations of Iranian Individuals and Entities for Censorship Activities Under the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act and Executive Order 13628."
Five Iranian entities and four individuals were targeted. Accusations are part of America's longstanding anti-Iranian hostility.
Washington claims they engage in "censorship or other activities that prohibit, limit, or penalize freedom of expression or assembly by citizens of Iran, or that limit access to print or broadcast media, including by jamming international satellite broadcasts into Iran, and related activities."
"U.S. persons are prohibited from engaging in transactions involving the designated individuals or entities, and all designated individuals and members of designated entities are subject to a ban on travel to the United States. This action also blocks, or freezes, the property and interests in property of designated individuals or entities."
The press release disingenuously claimed Washington "will continue to stand with the Iranian people in their quest to protect their dignity and freedoms and prevent the Iranian Government from creating an 'electronic curtain' to cut Iranian citizens off from the rest of the world."
Sanctions in place impose enormous hardships on Iranian civilians. A health crisis exists. Vital medications aren't available or are in short supply. Medical equipment breaks down for lack of spare parts.
Human suffering and deaths result. Crimes against humanity breach fundamental international law. Civilians must be protected at all times.
Targeting nonbelligerent countries is lawless and unconscionable. Washington prioritizes it. Obama is America's most belligerent president in history. He exceeded the worst of his predecessor. His second term may eclipse his war on humanity so far.
A previous article explained US and Israeli anti-Iranian red lines, timelines, deadlines, sanctions, sabotage, subversion, cyber attacks, assassinations, saber rattling, falsified IAEA hype, ad nauseam warmongering, Obama/Netanyahu bluster, spurious accusations, manipulated to fail P5+1 talks, and inflammatory headlines intended to promote regime change and war.
Iran and Syria top America's target list. Syrian opposition groups wrap up their Doha meeting Friday. AFP said opposition elements are "under pressure to unite and bring in all parties (under) new leadership with Islamists heavily represented."
On Thursday, a 40-member general secretariat was elected. On Friday, a president will be chosen. Dissension and disarray marked days of discussions.
Washington wants officials in place serving US interests. Russia's Foreign Ministry said Clinton issued "direct orders about what the Syrian opposition should do to form a 'government in exile' and" who'd be permitted to join it.
Syrian National Council (SNC) head Abdelbaset Sieda objected to being marginalized and perhaps shut out. It's unclear what's in place.
On November 7, the UK Telegraph headlined "Syrian opposition plan falls apart on eve of Doha conference," saying:
Ahead of Thursday's meeting, three dissident factions pulled out. Representatives from the National Coordinating Committee, Syrian Democratic Platform, and Kurdish minority rejected Clinton's plan. An unnamed Western source said, "There are too many people against this initiative for it to work now."
SNC military representative Jamal al-Wa'ard said, "The components that were not in the SNC are not coming. The idea of a bigger coalition initiative has failed."
SNC members rejected Western efforts to impose a solution on Syria. Deputy Revolutionary Council head Ahmed Zaidan said, "Everyone feels that this initiative is imposed. They've weaved the cloth but now there is no one to wear it."
Washington-style diplomacy imposes its will on others whether or not they concur. America, Britain and France announced their support for newly appointed Secretariat members "as the legitimate representative of the Syrian people."
Financial and military support will be provided. It's been ongoing since last year. Most weapons used come from Washington, Britain, France, and other NATO members.
British Prime Minister David Cameron toured Middle East countries to sell arms. He also wants the 2011 Syrian weapons embargo lifted. The measure's text in part says:
"By way of derogation….the competent authorities in the Member States….may authorize the sale, supply, transfer or export of equipment which might be used for internal repression, under such conditions as they deem appropriate, if they determine that such equipment is intended solely for humanitarian or protective use."
Cameron wants the meaning twisted to do openly what's been ongoing covertly since conflict began last year. The London Guardian said he'll press Obama to prioritize Syria. He wants stepped up efforts to oust Assad.
He said he's determined to act. "That means more help for the opposition, more pressure at the UN, more help for the refugees, more work with the neighbors but also a general sort of:"
"Look, let's be frank what we've done for the last 18 months hasn't been enough. The slaughter continues. The bloodshed is appalling, the bad effects it's having on the region, the radicalization but also the humanitarian crisis that is engulfing Syria."
"So let's work together on really pushing what more we can do, what other steps we can take to hasten the end of this regime."
He wants more aggressive options on the table. Expect direct Western intervention if what he has in mind fails. With US elections concluded, it's more likely. It could happen early next year or sooner.
On November 8, Russia Today interviewed Assad. He'll not leave Syria, he stressed. He'll live or die there. He was frank and clear, saying:
"We are the last stronghold of secularism and stability in the region and coexistence, let's say, it will have a domino effect that will affect the world from the Atlantic to the Pacific and you know the implication on the rest of the world."
"I am not a puppet. I was not made by the West to go to the West or to any other country," he said. "I am Syrian, I was made in Syria, I have to live in Syria and die in Syria."
He doesn't expect direct Western intervention, but isn't sure what's next. He calls "the price of (possible foreign) invasion….more than the whole world can afford."
"My enemy is terrorism and instability in Syria."
"The West creates enemies. In the past, it was the communism then it became Islam, and then it became Saddam Hussein for a different reason. Now, they want to create a new enemy represented by Bashar."
"The fight now is not the president's fight – it is Syrians' fight to defend their country."
It's "not about the power of the President. It is about the whole society."
"Syria faces not a civil war, but terrorism by proxies….(F)oreign fighters (came) from abroad."
"Without foreign rebel fighters and smuggled weapons, we could finish everything in weeks."
"Al-Qaeda's final aim is an Islamic emirate in Syria."
He'll talk with anyone willing to help Syrians. He won't waste time with elements wanting conflict to persist for their own interests.
"We are fighting terrorism. We are implementing our constitution by protecting the Syrian people."
Asked if he'd do anything differently from when protests began last March, he said, "I would do what I did on March 15 (2011)."
"Exactly the same. (He'd) ask different parties to have dialogue and stand against terrorists because that is how it started. It did not start as marches."
"The umbrella or cover was the marches, but within those marches you had militants who started shooting civilians and the army at the same time."
"Maybe on the tactical level, you could have done something different but as a president you are not tactical. You always take the decision on a strategic level which is something different."
He hopes Syria will emerge from conflict safe, stable, secure, and more prosperous. He knows it won't happen soon. Washington's regime change plans won't change. Achieving them is something else entirely.
A Final Comment
Daily violence rages in Syria. Terror attacks are a way of life. Car bombs and other violence happen regularly. No place is safe.
The longer conflict persists, the more public support grows for Assad. He's the last line of defense for ordinary Syrians. Even those against him rely on security forces for help.
Western-backed foreign mercenaries lack support and credibility. Syrians deplore who they are and what they stand for. They want Syria transformed into a fundamentalist caliphate. They want Sharia replacing secular law.
Syrians want to choose their own form of government. They don't want outsiders doing it for them. Foreign invader control will make Syria ungovernable like Libya. People know what's going on there and want no part of it.
Even The New York Times expressed some rare candor. It admitted that "rebel fighters….are losing crucial support from a public increasingly disgusted by the actions of some rebels, including poorly planned missions, senseless destruction, criminal behavior and the coldblooded killing of prisoners."
The shift in public sentiment is palpable. Radicalized opposition elements scare people. Daily bloodshed reminds everyone of what's coming if they gain control.
An unnamed Saraqib Syrian said, "They were supposed to be the people on whom we depend to build a civil society." Instead, they're destroying it.
An Aleppo resident "begged rebels not to camp in a neighborhood telecommunications office. But they did, and government attacks knocked out phone service."
"One fighter shot into the air when customers at a bakery did not let him cut into a long line for bread. Another was enraged when a man washing his car accidentally splashed him. He shot at him." He escaped unharmed.
Twenty months after conflict began, people "are trapped in a darkening mood of despair, revulsion and fear that neither side can end the conflict."
"The most significant change is (that people openly) criticize rebels."
"Small acts of petty humiliation and atrocities like executions have led many more Syrians to believe that (many) rebels are (morally) depraved…."
They "forced government soldiers from a milk factory, then destroyed it, even though residents needed the milk and had good relations with the owner."
"They shelled the factory and stole everything. Those are repulsive acts."
Syrians also know who bears responsibility for months of conflict and what's at stake. LIke others throughout the region, they deplore Washington for good reason. They want to live free from Western dominance. They may end up dying for it.

The NBA Closer is written by me, J.E. Skeets, high leader of The Moose. When I'm not busy scouring the box scores or part-time modeling, I can be heard on The Basketball Jones daily podcast talkin' shit and spittin' rhymes. Enjoy!
• R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Make it eight straight for the yellow N.O. David West scored 32 points and Peja Stojakovic added 22 points to lead the Western Conference-leading Hornets over the defending champ Spurs 102-78. "The whole thing about this team is 'Oh, can they beat the big teams?"' Hornets center Tyson Chandler said. "We've shown we can beat all of these teams and we deserve some respect." /fixes imaginary tie. "I'm ugly I'm tellin' ya. My proctologist, he stuck his finger in my mouth," he added.
• Enough Is Enough. Dwyane Wade scored 35 points and Mark Blount added 10 of his 19 in the fourth as the Heat beat the Pacers 98-96 to snap a 15-game slide — the longest in the NBA this season. But the win wasn't even the best part of the day. To celebrate Heat mascot Burnie's birthday, other noted South Florida mascots appeared, including T.D. of the Miami Dolphins. He was booed. Mercilessly.
• The Spirit Of Philadelphia. Head for Penn's Landing on the Delaware riverfront and spend a few unforgettable hours aboard the city's most entertaining dinner cruise ship. Sounds lovely. And oh, Andre Iguodala — CLICK HERE — scored 33 points and Andre Miller added 23 as the Sixers beat the bickering Bobcats 103-96.

Rose Murray called a local veterinarian and the Charleston Animal Society checking on prices to have her 8-month-old puppy, Mason, neutered.
The choice was a no-brainer when Murray, a North Charleston homeowner, found out she was eligible for a special program at the Animal Society and the procedure would cost only $10. The private-practice veterinarian would have charged about $100, she said.
"We would have had to do it eventually," Murray said of the surgery. But paying full price "would have made it harder."
Not everybody is as thrilled about low-cost spay and neuter services as Murray. Some South Carolina veterinarians have become so concerned in recent years about animal shelters and nonprofit rescue groups offering a growing number of free and reduced-cost veterinary services that they have pushed legislators to file a bill in the General Assembly to limit the practice. The nonprofit groups often receive public money and grants so they can offer cheaper services.
The veterinarians say that gives those groups a competitive advantage, which is beginning to harm their private businesses. But local shelter group leaders say they aren't competing with private practices because most of their clients simply wouldn't take their pets to a veterinarian if free or low-cost services weren't available. The bill, which was introduced by Rep. David Hiott, R-Pickens, continues to be modified as veterinarians and shelter groups work toward compromises. Both sides are scheduled to meet informally Wednesday to try to discuss the bill, he said.
"There may not be a consensus," he said. "We may not reach an agreement. That's the nature of legislation sometimes. This will probably take a little while."
Both private veterinarians and local shelter leaders said much of the most intense conflict between shelters and private veterinarians is centered in the Columbia area, and that Charleston-area groups generally have better relationships with local veterinarians.
Patricia Hill, a Simpsonville veterinarian and president of the 700-member S.C. Association of Veterinarians, said her group pushed legislators to file the bill, which also addresses establishing standards of care at shelters. The controversial aspects of the bill would limit the kinds of service shelters could provide to animals not living in them, and to whom they could provide services.
The public has a place in its heart for animal rescue groups, she said, so the association knew their move would be scrutinized. "You tap a powder keg when you suggest animal shelter work should be done differently," she said.
The growing tension between private-practice veterinarians, who must purchase business licenses and pay taxes, was exacerbated by the Columbia group Palmetto Lifeline, Hill said. The group, which receives public money and grants, offers mobile veterinary services in several parts of the state, often competing with local veterinarians, she said.
She doesn't think shelters should offer services such as dental work, declawing and boarding services. "It's not a level playing field," she said.
And many shelters have drifted from their original missions of rescuing homeless animals, she said. "They've become fundraising machines."
Lucy Fuller, veterinarian at the Charleston Animal Society, said often people bring in middle-aged animals to be spayed or neutered that have never before been to a veterinarian. The shelter offers free and low-cost spay and neuter services to non-shelter animals, and will vaccinate and microchip animals during their surgical visit, she said. But it doesn't have a full- service clinic for the public.
Joe Elmore, the society's chief executive officer, said the bill could impact the spay and neuter clinic by requiring the shelter to verify that people who use it are low-income and limiting service to them. He doesn't want to do that, he said, because some people who might not meet low-income guidelines, such as middle-class parents paying college tuition, can't afford the surgery.
Elmore said the bill, versions of which have been filed in the House and the Senate, likely will be modified in the coming weeks as shelter and veterinarian groups meet and make compromises. It's a complicated piece of legislation, he said, and "it's kind of a living document."
George Andersen brought Azi the cat to the Animal Society last week to be neutered. "It's a lot cheaper than the other options, and I trust them," he said of the shelter.
Cost estimates varied widely for the surgery, he said. A private Mount Pleasant clinic told him it would cost $200, he said. Another clinic in West Ashley would have charged $100. The Animal Society did it for $50. "Going to a Mount Pleasant doctor and paying $200 seems ridiculous," she said.
Carole Linville, founder of the nonprofit Pet Helpers, said she's not sure how the bill would affect her shelter, which runs mostly on private donations.
But, she said, it's essential to reduce pet overpopulation, "and the only way to do that is affordable spay-and-neuter programs." Private practice prices now are so high for such services that "you should have some smelling salts with you because you're going to faint," she said.
Donnie Gamble, a veterinarian at the Oakbrook Veterinary Clinic in Summerville and a member of the board of the S.C. Association of Veterinarians, said he was bothered when, not long ago, a shelter group from outside of the area held a low-cost vaccine clinic not far from his practice.
He has to run a business, he said, which includes paying staff, taxes and full price for many medicines shelters can purchase at discounted rates. The vaccine clinic was competing with his business and those of other Summerville veterinarians, he said.
He would like to see limits to the kinds of services shelters offer. The problem in the Charleston area isn't that bad right now, he said. But he would like to see shelters reined in on the kinds of services they provide before things get worse.
He also said he thinks that spay and neuter clinics run by shelters probably should be limited to people who truly are low-income. People adopting pets need to be able to afford to take care of them, he said. And that includes food and medical care. "Is everybody entitled to have a pet if you can afford it or not?" he said.
Private practice veterinarians get to know their clients and their pets, he said. They develop an ongoing relationship that is beneficial to the pets' lifelong health, he said. And that costs more.
Shelters provide valuable services to the community, he said, but some of them have crossed the line and are now receiving public money to compete with private businesses. "We're not trying to shut them down," he said. "We're trying to work with them."
