solaris 11 build 39
Has anyone gotten the Nvidia driver to work with opensolaris build 38 or 39?
It seems some x.org modules needed by Nvidia driver are now missing.
(EE) Failed to load module "Xst" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "xtsol" (module does not exist, 0)
Re: solaris 11 build 39
The NVIDIA X driver doesn't rely on these modules; please generate and attach a bug report log file if you have problems specific to the NVIDIA X driver.
Re: solaris 11 build 39
have you double checked your /etc/X11/xorg.conf that you're using the nvidia driver and not the nv driver?
Re: solaris 11 build 39
try to go further tonight and let you see the result, if any.
Update #1: Commenting the line which load the GLX module (in the xorg.conf file)
do the trick here. FYI, here are the correponding error lines in the Xorg.0.log
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module; please check in your X
(EE) NVIDIA(0): log file that the GLX module has been loaded in your X
(EE) NVIDIA(0): server, and that the module is the NVIDIA GLX module. If
(EE) NVIDIA(0): you continue to encounter problems, Please try
(EE) NVIDIA(0): reinstalling the NVIDIA driver.
Update #2: Following the X Window mailing list about this problem, it seems that
this is a known problem already tracked. Here is the corresponding link with
a workaround in order to be able to use OpenGL (be careful not to break anything):
Re: solaris 11 build 39
A temporary fix has been integrated into build 41 under 6429418.
Until b41 is available, you will need to use the b38 /lib/ld.so.1 binary
as a workaround (or disable GLX in xorg.conf).

Gear Review

Really Nice sweatshirt
Just one caution - runs small. I wear a Large in all the sweatshirts I buy and they are usually a bit big on me. This sweatshirt was tight across my chest and stomach and would not fit with a heavy shirt on underneath. Returned it for an XL which will be the only XL anything I own.
Made really well, really soft fabric on outside. One thing they don't say in the description is that it does have handwarmer pockets as well as the pockets you can see in the photo. Not a super heavy sweatshirt but I really like it and like the way it is made.

At Stanford University, Ge Wang teaches computer music: how to make sounds from digits and turn them into melodies and rhythm.
So when the iPhone came out — a portable computer with a built-in microphone (for voice calls), and a graphic screen — a doctoral student with entrepreneurial experience suggested they start a company to bring their research in digital audio to the masses.
Their Ocarina, a 99-cent application that turns the iPhone into a virtual flute, has become one of the iPhone's best-selling apps — to the tune of nearly $800,000. Now out is the sequel, the Leaf Trombone World Stage.
"We believe in the potential of interactive sound; we believe that everyone is inherently creative; and we want to unlock that creativity in everyone," says Wang, 31. "We want to find new types of ways to connect people, using the technology we have before us."
Apple aapl launched the iPhone in June 2007. Its popularity surged even further in July 2008, when Apple introduced a new, faster model and an online App Store, offering software applications.
The apps — an array of fun, handy or just plain practical little programs — range from games and simulated aquariums to subway maps and more. Many are free; others are priced from 99 cents to $10 and up. The App Store — stocked with 15,000 titles — is on tap to move its 1 billionth application any day now.
Most of the developers are small outfits such as Smule, the company that Wang and Jeff Smith started to launch the Ocarina and several other apps. Smith, 35, is CEO.
"One of the biggest hurdles for game developers is getting published. But with the iPhone, you develop it, and Apple starts sending you money," says Bill Trost, who created the No. 2 best-seller Koi Pond (900,000 apps sold) with four friends.
The challenge for developers such as Trost and Wang, says Gartner analyst Van Baker, is building upon the initial success. "It was easier when there wasn't as much competition," he says.
Anything's an instrument
It's not hard to get attention with Ocarina and Leaf Trombone. Using the same iPhone microphone that's intended for voice calls, you blow into it, and through Wang's computer programming, music is created. Twist and turn the phone to add vibrato.
The App Store is crowded with virtual instruments such as Band, Pocket Guitar and Finger Piano. But unlike Ocarina, they didn't crack the top 20 best-selling apps chart.
Wang's marketing strategy focused on working the social Web via YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. He shared many videos of Ocarina in use by students and other performers on YouTube.
"We're making use of technology in ways that people haven't seen, and video really helps people to understand that," says Wang. "If you see some person holding a phone like a sandwich and have sound coming out, you get it."
To plug the new Leaf Trombone, Wang reached out to a popular YouTube performing duo named Rhett and Link, who have attracted a wide audience for their amusing musical videos. He dangled an advance copy of the Leaf Trombone application, and they spun up a new version of Movin' On Up, the theme song from The Jeffersons TV show — complete with trombone solo.
The Leaf "takes me back to my school days, where you could turn anything into an instrument," says the duo's Link Neal.
He found the virtual trombone a little tougher to play than the Ocarina, but once he had it down, "It's cool to pull something out and be the Pied Piper."

Thank you Katie!! I am sure I will feel better in a few days. I let myself get so excited and filled with hope and magical thinking during each TWW. It feels so deflating each month when it doesn't happen. I was incredibly lucky (and naive and so unaware) when I got pregnant with DD, happened on the first try. I always assumed it would happen just as easily the second time around, but this has not been the case. I am so very grateful for privileges in my life and for my DD. She is amazing and incredible and such a joy. I feel consumed by guilt at the idea of her being an only, and it is not at all what I want. But 8 cycles with nada makes me think it probably is not meant to be and DH is not on board with any interventions, he's barely on board with trying at all!! I promise I'll return to my more typical, positive self very soon. I am a glass half full gal. Real life is messy and often not so pretty. This weekend I need to feel rotten and cry and then I'll bounce back. Promise.
I am a Mama who
Arm still no AF but I read that clomid can make AF come late. I can't sleep so I poas from the ER at work. Bfn. At first I thought maybe there was a faint line but the control was just settling. I looked at it a few min later and it very negative. So I'm guessing AF is coming soon.
TTC#1 Since March 2008, PCOS and possible T-shaped uterus, divorced DH after 4 IUIs, hysteroscopy and laparoscopy, Currently with DB and bonus mom to his 3 children and our dogs Dexter and Morgan . Four more rounds of Clomid and IUI starting in December 2012 after trying naturally since June...
Just popping back in to check on everyone from time to time, and I wanted to say to Sparkle:
I've become pregnant 5 times in my life; 1st-accident termination, 2nd-9 months ttc, 3rd- 1 month ttc m/c, 4th- 1 month ttc, 5th- 3 months ttc
Hang in there. I'm sorry it's so hard for you right now. I remember the feeling of frustration and worry. Your body knows how to make and grow a baby. Perhaps there are factors that we can't see that are waiting for things to be just right. Big hugs today.
Oh Sparkle, I'm so sorry :( I wish there was more I could do to help you feel better. Let yourself grieve, cry as much as you feel like you need to, and when you're ready, keep your chin up. I know it's so hard right now, but remember we're all here for you and rooting for you!!
Good luck all the testers out there today!
AFM- I've had a cruddy start to the day.. I think I must still be out of sorts from the early loss, because I'm snappy with my husband who really didn't do anything wrong.. We have a family belated Christmas celebration today, which is starting off with 2 baby showers :( I feel horrible and selfish for not being happy for them. My husband doesn't seem to be getting why I don't want to go to the family thing at all, so he's mad at me for being antisocial. The last thing I want to do right now is go to a baby shower. Hopefully I can make it without having to hide in the bathroom
So sorry sparkle! I really had a great feeling about this cycle for you 😔 take your time grieving. Just know you will get your baby!
Hi Dahlia! 😃 I miss you lady. So sorry for your yucky start of the day. You'll get through it cause you're awesome!
Good luck and baby dust to everyone else!!
Sparkle - big big hugs sweetie. I so had a good feeling for you this cycle as well. I am so sorry that AF has been such a downer. It's hard to stay so upbeat and positive each cycle, AF can be such a let down. I try to tell myself when AF arrives that it is a good sign, it means that my body is functioning properly (some women don't have normal cycles at all, etc.) and AF is part of our womanhood, etc... But, I know when it first hits after you've been so hopeful it is just a big old bummer. Take your time to get through the misery of AFs arrival, be kind to yourself, pamper yourself as much as you can and take it easy. I know you will get back to that hopeful half full gal that you truly are!
Dahlia - hope that you're able to get through the party without having to hide... will be thinking of you.
Becky - don't give up until AF arrives, try to keep the faith! Still keeping for you!!
Waiting to hear from you ladies who tested this morning!!!
AFM - trying to stay strong and wait until Monday to test (unless AF shows up first of course). I was really moody and kind of snappy yesterday (which I usually get right before her arrival) so I'm worried that we didn't catch that egg after all, but trying to remain as positive as I can and am still really really really tired, ugh!
Sparkle, my first was a first try baby and my second took 7 months of TTC so I totally understand where you are coming from. Every month I couldn't figure out what was wrong with my body. But after a couple of days, it does get easier and you gear up for the next cycle. I forget, are you charting or anything? Perhaps there would be some info there that would be helpful?
Dahlia, ugh. So many hugs! I hope you get through the day. I'm sorry DH can't see why this is hard for you. Can you have a glass of wine at the party at least? When I was trying cycle after cycle for DD every time I would get AF I would get sushi, wine and make a goat cheese appetizer! Take that! LOL. It's the little things, right?
Becky, so sorry about the BFN. The worst. When you are pretty darn sure you're out but that little bit of you still has hope. At least AF is final and you can move on. I hope you just have a shy bean in there but many hugs.

We are a happy family!
dahlia: I'm sorry you're having such a rough day. If I wasn't going to hide out, which I probably would here and there if I thought I could sneak away a few times, I'd be all with the "Yes, I'll take that glass of wine now please!"
Suzie: I've always gotten that feeling like AF is still coming when I've actually been pg. The day she's supposed to blow into town and I haven't seen her yet but it keeps feeling like she just started is so . for you!
for those of you with AF showing up or getting ready to for success next cycle; TTC is definitely a whirlwind of emotions. Good luck to everyone getting ready to test!
Me, testing is soooo far away so, going to continue to hang out in the crazy-making . I'm actually feeling pretty chilled out which is surprising. It's probably b/c I'm still knee-deep in the TWW. The closer I get to the end of this cycle we'll see how mellow I still am .

Rather than read all the posts, I will jump in here. I am 43. Past child bearing, as far as the world would tell me. But with my Benn almost 3. the longing was too great. I am in day 15 of a normal 28 or so cycle so the TWW has become. It was been a BDing month LOL Heidi

Dahlia Lots and lots of hugs You are an amazing, strong woman. I'm not sure I would have been able to go at all!! Hope you got to enjoy some wine, sushi, soft cheese, etc, whatever your heart desired. And hopefully the dreaded party is done and you're back home to relax and pamper yourself. I am planning to consume a few glasses of wine tonight with my Linguine Peperonata, helps ease those AF cramps that have begun in earnest today. Perhaps some goat cheese or brie too. Thanks for idea Katie!!
I am a Mama who
Suziesmiles you are 100% right with women and irregular cycles. Unless I take birth control I don't get AF. Peeing on opk does nothing for me since I may not have an LH surge. I never thought I would wish for a period and to be "normal".
I'm gonna get my baby and I won't stop believing or trying until I do!!

Thanks for the support mamacatsbaby! I am totally going nuts and wish someone would post about their BFP today!! I need to live vicariously through someone testing today, ahhhhhh!!! I think I might break down and test tomorrow morning, I just can't take it anymore, it's all I'm able to think about right now!!!!
Welcome Heidi! You don't know how happy I am to see someone here over 40!! Good luck this cycle!!!
Becky - big hugs, you will get your baby when the time is right. I know how you feel about "wanting just one", me too! I am keeping the faith and believe in you:)
I'm new! My hubby and I joined the ttc club on Christmas day.
I took a test this morning and saw a super faint line with strained eyes...so I'm going to wait and test again tomorrow.
We've been married 3 years, and are ready to start a family! I'm hopeful for a bfp!!
to let you all know that I am thinking about you!
I hope everyone else is doing well and welcome to all the newbies! Fingers crossed for lots of BFPs
AF is supposed to show up in 4 days and even though I got my BFP I am still just nervous and it is feeling surreal. I don't work tomorrow morning so I am planning on testing tomorrow AM. my urine is always sooo dilute during the day so even though I have been testing nothing is showing which is worrying me... I'm so sleepy and nauseous in the AM too... Bah!
Suzie: I knoooooow! I wants to see some 's so I can continue my vicarious living as well . I've been counting down the days 'til you test . I don't think I'm going to sleep well tonight waiting to see whether or not you tested in the morning lol. And I'm trying not to symptom spot but I have indeed been a bit more groggy/tired the last couple of days. That means nothing to me though as my children are up before the birds each and everyday so I may just be regular exhausted but with a twist haha. And isn't it too early for that for me anyway? Trying not to analyze whatever the hell is going on below the waist as that could be anything too . Damn these ambiguous twitches and whatnot!
zonapellucida/Heidi: I swear we've been in one or two DDC's together. But I may just be making that up lol. Good luck!
auntikerry: Congratulations! I'll bet that line darkens right up .
jjh: The anxiety never ends does it!
So I keep thinking I can pour myself a Guiness or a B&T now that the children are in bed then I remember .

I just took a dollar tree hpt and there was nothing there with FMU... I'm really discouraged and sad because frer showed a line days ago but I only have two left and don't want to use the expensive ones... Has anyone else ever had this happen? I'm still 3 days away from AF so I know there is still time but ughhhh!
Oh that's so frustrating jjh5351! I haven't had this happen but I agree with Katie to test again and definitely get the blood test as well:) Good luck!! We are all hoping the best for you, there is still time!!!
Well, I've been impatiently waiting to see a BFP and finally got my wish this morning:D
I'm 13DPO (day 26 of an average 27 day cycle) and I took a FRER at 5:45am with FMU and here's the 2 lovely lines I've been waiting for...
Initially I was excited but unfortunately with a little hesitation because before I went to bed last night, I read the following disclaimer on the box: "Important note regarding positive results: Because this test detects very low levels of hCG, there is a small chance that this test will give positive results even if you are not pregnant. Chances of this are greater for women nearing age 40 and older."
So..... I turned 39 a few months ago... And, worried that I'd be one of those FALSE positives, I decided to take a dollar tree test I had with SMU 3 hours later as they are supposed to be less sensitive, right? Here's what that test showed, no disclaimer on that box:
So... should I be excited or still cautious until I get a blood test (which I wasn't really planning on doing)? Help ladies?? I so want to be happy and think I've got a little bun in the oven but don't want to be disappointed. Anyone know about these false positives FR mentioned???
But then the freak-out side of me goes
woohoo!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!! Get totally excited and screw false-positive warnings, you're pregnant!!!
But I absolutely understand not wanting to completely flip. How do you feel? Still pretty tired? I know I haven't been a lick of help here . To round out my unhelpfulness I'll just say I know nothing about FRER false-positives. So, carry on!
What do you feel deep down? Is it more so you know the tests are confirming what you know to be true but it also feels too good to be real, therefore you must make sure to protect yourself emotionally?
Personally, I think you're big-time preggers .

Congrats suzie! I think you should let yourself feel hopeful and excited, but still do the bloodwork for peace of mind :) I'm so happy for you!! woohoo for bfps!!
How's everyone else doing?
AFM I'm looking into fertilitea... has anyone tried it? Or know anything about it?
Thanks auntiekerry and dahlia and mamacatsbaby - you are too funny you crazy Libra!!! I am still really tired. I have been it seems ever since I O'd... I know you mentioned you were tired too, I think it's a good sign!! and toes crossed for you!!!
Physically, I have really felt that there was something going on down there for over a week but kept telling myself it was all in my head. I am not as hungry as I have been (I'd been ravenous the past couple of weeks) otherwise, feel pretty good. Did have a little headache this morning, but blaming that on the fact that I couldn't sleep last night! I finally went to bed at midnight, woke at 2am to pee. Back to sleep finally, then woke again 4:15, told myself to go back to sleep because I wanted to try to hold my FMU as long as possible, woke again at 5:30 and tested at 5:45. Told DH and then neither of us could really get back to sleep, we just cuddled and were cautiously happy:D Sorry about the book here, I'm just shocked and don't have anyone I can tell IRL. I promised my Mom I wouldn't tell her early again because the m/c really upset her too (it would have been her first grandchild). She's pretty much my best friend and I don't want her to go through that again. So, it's just DH and myself who know and it will be a long time before I feel comfortable telling anyone else...
And, emotionally/spiritually I am just trying to believe that this will be the one. It's going to be a struggle to remain excited but I am determined not to be too worried or sad during my pregnancy. I hope I can keep that up!
Good luck to everyone else waiting for their BFPs!
Thanks for all the support ladies. I have really enjoyed hearing from everyone in this thread. I know I really belong in the infertility thread but it makes me so happy to see all the bfp here. It's hard not getting pregnant and even harder that I have never been pregnant. I look at everyone and just think "man! I wish I just one". Knowing how bad I want one I can imagine how frustrating it is to have one and have a hard time having another.
Suziesmiles you are 100% right with women and irregular cycles. Unless I take birth control I don't get AF. Peeing on opk does nothing for me since I may not have an LH surge. I never thought I would wish for a period and to be "normal".
I'm gonna get my baby and I won't stop believing or trying until I do!!
Hi all, I'm new! My hubby and I joined the ttc club on Christmas day.
I took a test this morning and saw a super faint line with strained eyes...so I'm going to wait and test again tomorrow.
We've been married 3 years, and are ready to start a family! I'm hopeful for a bfp!!
Did you test again this morning? for a darker BFP!!
In general. If you have thyroid problems and /or are on medicine there is one chemical, aspartame that effectively counter acts the medicine. Also there are foods that will inhibit the thyroid from taking in iodine such as peanuts, broccoli, spinach, cabbage, etc...
The aspartame is what I have to watch. It's in crystal light, almost every diet soda out there, almost every type of gum, um I know there's more...just can't remember. Oh and don't use sea salt. There's basically no nutritional value and the salt does not have iodine!! Buy the old school salt with iodine! Much healthier!!

Drax's sketchbook (possible nudity) - COMEBACK, ASKING FOR SUPPORT!
I'm back to living
Now I won't be postin pencil sketches but mostly digital work and try to keep it up and not stop postin again.
Still got problem with edges and textures. I tend to overblend and use too much soft edges.
How to manage it? I'm kinda afraid to let myself go and achieve some roughness with theeth.
For example cultist with book is way too soft in my opinion, and I couldn't manage to fix him. I tried to paint textures later on, but it's not nearly the same as painting them straight over.
And what brush should I use for sharpening my edges? I know it's kinda dumb question, cause you can achievie almost everything with hard round but... In my case I find it really hard to do good hard edges with hard round brush.
For example for these two landscapes (Mustafar and Mountains) i used custom brush which basically looks like "|" but it's not good for something more organic - I think it's too big and rought.
Thanks in advance for all answers! I promise I won't leave ConceptArt.org ever again, it's priceless chest of knowledge

Rob Kall interviews Sibel Edmonds
Rob Kall of Op-Ed News interviewed Sibel on Wednesday. The audio ought to show up here at some point.
The following is a partial transcript. All errors, edits and omissions are mine.
Sibel Edmonds:
We (NSWBC) stopped our activities for a while, and we are restarting them again, and I just launched my blog, www.123realchange.blogspot.com, and the first series that I'm posting there is on the mainstream media, and in the next few days, you're going to see more than 300 whistleblowers who are going to post their comments at the blog too, about their experiences with various people in the mainstream media.
So that's going to be the main discussion, because currently we review the mainstream media as the culprit, because if they were to do their jobs, they would put pressure on the people in the congress, because these people want to get re-elected, and therefore that pressure would act as a catalyst to get these things that we, the people, have been asking for – the real hearings and accountability. But without the mainstream media putting that pressure, going after them, well, they don't have anything really… Continue reading
Intellectual Dishonesty In The Age Of Universal Deceit:
a message to the corporate media and our elected officials.
By Daniel Sunjata – May 4, 2009
"The inert masses are mentally and spiritually ill equipped to deal with reality, so they block it out of their minds – aided of course, by the corporate media and the propaganda apparatus of the government itself. This is why fantasy is frequently substituted for reality, plutocracy is mistaken for democracy, and the majority of the people do not know the difference. Millions of good people thus refuse to allow into their psyche the suffering and misery that U.S. policies have produced and exported to the world, even as that reality is closing in upon them." – Charles Sullivan
"They could be made to accept the most flagrant violations of reality…and were not sufficiently interested in public events to notice what was happening." – George Orwell, 1984
"Article XXXIV OBSTRUCTION OF INVESTIGATION INTO THE ATTACKS OF SEPTEMBER 11, 2001" – From the 35 articles of impeachment introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on 06/09/08 in H.Res. 1258 by Congressman Dennis Kucinich
The list is not a short one. It includes professors, architects, aerospace and aviation professionals, structural/mechanical/& aeronautical engineers, demolition experts, firefighters and other first responders, scientists, theologians, senior members of both the military and intelligence communities, Republican administration appointees, state department veterans, and other government officials from the United States and abroad; credible experts of impeccable pedigree with impressive track records from… Continue reading

Guest Editorial by Sibel Edmonds

Exclusive to The BRAD BLOG
I have been known to quote long-dead men in my past writings. Whether eloquently
expressed thoughts by our founding fathers, or those artfully expressed by ancient
Greek thinkers, these quotes have always done a better job starting or ending
my thoughts – that tend to be expressed in long winding sentences. For this piece
I am going to break with tradition and start with an appropriate quote from a
living current senator, John Kerry: "It's a sad day when you have members of
Congress who are literally criminals go undisciplined by their colleagues. No
wonder people look at Washington and know this city is broken."
The people do indeed look at Washington and know that this city is 'badly' broken, Senator Kerry. The public confidence in our Congress has been declining drastically. Recent poll results highlight how the American people's trust in their Congress has hit rock bottom. A survey of progressive blogs easily confirms the rage rightfully directed at our Congress for abdicating its role of oversight and accountability. Activists scream about promised hearings that never took place – without explanation. They express outrage when investigations are dropped without any justification. And they genuinely wonder out… Continue reading

Blue Dog Rep. Jane Harman — once the most vigorous Democratic cheerleader of Bush's NSA warrantless eavesdropping program — is rip-roarin' angry today. Apparently, her private conversations were eavesdropped on by the U.S. Government! This is a grave outrage that, as she told Andrea Mitchell just moments ago, demands a probing investigation:
That's what I asked Attorney General Holder to do — to release any tapes, I don't know whether they were legally made or not, of my conservations about this matter . . . and to hope that he will investigate whether other members of Congress or other innocent Americans might have been subject to this same treatment. I call it an abuse of power in the letter I wrote him this morning.
. . .
I'm just very disappointed that my country — I'm an American citizen just like you are — could have permitted what I think is a gross abuse of power in recent years. I'm one member of Congress who may be caught up in it, and I have a bully pulpit and I can fight back. I'm thinking about others who have no bully pulpit, who may not be aware, as I was not, that someone is listening in on their conversations, and they're innocent Americans.
So if I understand this correctly — and I'm pretty sure I do — when the U.S. Government eavesdropped for years on American citizens with no warrants and in violation of… Continue reading

Anthony Hall is like many other 9/11 skeptics. At some point, after examining the events of 9/11 and the international consequences of that foul deed, (particularly the
consequences that befell countries with a predominantly Arab/Muslim population), Mr. Hall decided to speak out. The difference between Hall and most 9/11 skeptics, is that Mr. Hall is a sitting academic at a university in Lethbridge, Alberta, in Canada.
Hall joined a growing list of Canadian academics who have chosen to speak out publicly; John McMurtry , Graeme MacQueen , Michael Keefer , and of course, Michel Chossudovsky , a pioneer in 9/11 skepticism.
He made his debut as a skeptic of the 9/11 Official Conspiracy Theory (OCT) on September 6, 2008 in Edmonton, Alberta, with a reading of his paper, The Lies and Crimes of 911 . The paper is an excellent introduction to a series of complex, related studies, that encompass globalization, US imperial tendencies, and false-flag terrorism. Hall is well-versed in these issues, and won an Alberta Book Award for his volume, The American Empire and the Fourth World .
The cover features provocative imagery; Apache-like helicopters in place of stars on the American flag, giving no doubt as to Hall's intent. The image is a very un-subtle, ironic reinterpretation of one of the prime symbols of the American dream; the very banner of Liberty itself is subverted to shock the viewer into a reevaluation of the iconic Red, White and Blue. Just as… Continue reading

For some time now, many Americans have wondered how Congress, the elected body that the nation's Founding Fathers saw as the bulwark of liberty, could have been so thoroughly unwilling to, or incapable of challenging the dictatorial power-grabs and the eight-year Constitution wrecking campaign of the Bush/Cheney administration.
There has been speculation on both the far left and the far right, and even among some in the apolitical, cynical middle of the political spectrum, that somehow the Bush/Cheney administration must have been blackmailing at least the key members of the Congressional leadership, most likely through the use of electronic monitoring by the National Security Agency (NSA).
I'll admit that I considered the idea of blackmail a bit far out. But now suddenly there is at least some evidence that such seemingly wild speculation may not have been off the mark, with reports that the NSA was indeed monitoring Rep. Jane Harman (D-CA), and that the Bush Administration used the evidence it had obtained of her improper conversations with and promises to assist agents of the Israeli government and its lobby here in the US, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), to blackmail her into supporting the NSA's warrantless spying program–the very kind of spying that led to her being caught on tape plotting with an agent of a foreign power.
At the time of the taping of Harman's incriminating phone conversations, the administration was trying desperately (and ultimately successfully) to get the New York Times to hold off on publishing a shocking investigative report by journalist James Risen about a massive campaign of warrantless tapping of Americans' phone and internet communications.…Continue reading

In an interview on NPR's Fresh Air yesterday, host Terry Gross asked investigative journalist Seymour Hersh if, as he continues to investigate the Bush administration, "more people" were "coming forward" to talk to him now that "the president and vice president are no longer in power." Hersh replied that though "a lot of people that had told me in the last year of Bush, 'call me next, next February,' not many people had talked to him. He implied that they were still scared of Cheney.
"Are you saying that you think Vice President Cheney is still having a chilling effect on people who might otherwise be coming forward," asked Gross. "I'll make it worse," answered Hersh, adding that he believes Cheney "put people back" in government to "stay behind" in order to "tell him what's going on" and perhaps even "do sabotage":
HERSH: I'll make it worse. I think he's put people left. He's put people back. They call it a stay behind. It's sort of an intelligence term of art. When you leave a country and, you know, you've driven out the, you know, you've lost the war. You leave people behind. It's a stay behind… Continue reading

Last week's resignation of the top cybersecurity official for the Department of Homeland
Security has revealed a thorny bureaucratic rivalry between the National Security
Agency and the resigned official who accuses NSA of having too tight a hold
on cybersecurity.
After less than a year as director of the National Cyber Security Center, Rod
Beckstrom resigned on Friday, citing a lack of funding and efforts by the NSA
to dominate government cypersecurity. The Wall Street Journal has his
letter of resignation, which can be read here.
In the letter to DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano, Beckstrom charged that NSA
"effectively controls DHS cyber efforts" through employee detailees to NCSC
from NSA, technology insertions and the proposed move of the NCSC to NSA's Fort
Meade facility.
"While acknowledging the critical importance of NSA to our intelligence efforts,
I believe this is a bad strategy on multiple grounds," Beckstrom wrote. "The
intelligence culture is very different than a network operations or security
Beckstrom said as director he objected to the "subjugation" of NCSC under NSA
and had advocated for a "credible civilian government cybersecurity capability"
that cooperated with NSA but didn't answer to it.
"This is a coordination body and it resides alongside or above the other centers,
but certainly not below them," Beckstrom said of the NCSC in a Washington
Post interview after his resignation. "In my view, it is very important
that there be independence for the [center], and that it… Continue reading
We urge Attorney General Eric Holder to appoint a non-partisan independent Special Counsel to immediately commence a prosecutorial investigation into the most serious alleged crimes of former President George W. Bush, former Vice President Richard B. Cheney, the attorneys formerly employed by the Department of Justice whose memos sought to justify torture, and other former top officials of the Bush Administration.
UPDATE 2/27/09 6pm: In response to the many email questions we've received asking why we have not endorsed this call for a Special Prosecutor: On 2/24, when this statement/petition was posted at AfterDowningStreet.org, 911truth.org immediately signed on as an endorsing organization via the signup at that site. As of now, our name does not appear on that list. Nonetheless, we did submit endorsement. We are not, yet, encouraging 9/11 truth advocates to politely contact David Swanson asking him why he would permanently post a video statement from Willie Rodriguez on the front page of his site, yet continue to ignore/ban the burgeoning 9/11 truth movement from being heard as the powerful voice we are, in calling for truth and accountability. We believe that Mr. Swanson is acting in good faith, all in all, and will post our endorsement with the others on the list shortly.
Our laws, and treaties that under Article VI of our Constitution are the supreme law of the land, require the prosecution of crimes that strong evidence suggests these individuals have committed. Both the former president and the former vice president have confessed to authorizing a torture procedure that is illegal under our law and treaty obligations.…Continue reading
Terrell (Terry) E. Arnold was the number 2 counter-terrorism official at the U.S. State Department, and is one of the world's leading experts on terror.
Arnold served as the Deputy Director, Office of Counter-Terrorism and Emergency Planning, at the U.S. State Department. He is also the former Chairman of the Department of International Studies at the National War College.
Arnold has worked as a crisis management consultant for several Federal agencies, including The State Department, the Department of Defense, the U.S. Customs Service and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. He is the author of numerous books on terror*. Arnold is a U.S. Navy veteran of World War II and the Korean war.
I spoke with Arnold by phone.
GW: Your essay It is Vital to Move Beyond 9/11 is insightful and hard-hitting, and I agree with virtually everything you say. I have previously written on many of the topics you touch on, such as false pretenses for war , torture and illegal spying .
Initially, you write:
"As an alleged post 9/11 defense, the War on Terrorism is a gigantic fraud."
I agree with you completely, and have written several essays arguing that the War on Terror is a hoax (see this , this and this ).
As a leading counter-terrorism expert, I am curious to hear why you believe this.
Terry Arnold: The military approach doesn't cover all of the elements of the problem. We need to capture and confine the individuals who are up to… Continue reading

The super-secretive National Security Agency has been quietly monitoring, decrypting, and interpreting foreign communications for decades, starting long before it came under criticism as a result of recent revelations about the Bush administration's warrantless wiretapping program. Now a forthcoming PBS documentary asks whether the NSA could have prevented 9/11 if it had been more willing to share its data with other agencies.
Author James Bamford looked into the performance of the NSA in his 2008 book, The Shadow Factory, and found that it had been closely monitoring the 9/11 hijackers as they moved freely around the United States and communicated with Osama bin Laden's operations center in Yemen. The NSA had even tapped bin Laden's satellite phone, starting in 1996.
"The NSA never alerted any other agency that the terrorists were in the United States and moving across the country towards Washington," Bamford told PBS.
PBS also found that "the 9/11 Commission never looked closely into NSA's role in the broad intelligence breakdown behind the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. If they had, they would have understood the full extent to which the agency had major pieces of the puzzle but never put them together or disclosed their entire body of knowledge to the CIA and the FBI."
In a review of Bamford's book, former senator and 9/11 Commission member Bob Kerrey wrote, "As the 9/11 Commission later established, U.S. intelligence officials knew that al-Qaeda had held a planning meeting in Malaysia, found out the names of two recruits who had been present — Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi — and suspected that one and maybe both of them had flown to Los Angeles.…Continue reading

Former National Security Agency analyst Russell Tice, who helped expose the NSA's warrantless wiretapping in December 2005, has now come forward with even more startling allegations. Tice told MSNBC's Keith Olbermann on Wednesday that the programs that spied on Americans were not only much broader than previously acknowledged but specifically targeted journalists.
"The National Security Agency had access to all Americans' communications — faxes, phone calls, and their computer communications," Tice claimed. "It didn't matter whether you were in Kansas, in the middle of the country, and you never made foreign communications at all. They monitored all communications."
Tice further explained that "even for the NSA it's impossible to literally collect all communications. … What was done was sort of an ability to look at the metadata … and ferret that information to determine what communications would ultimately be collected."
According to Tice, in addition to this "low-tech, dragnet" approach, the NSA also had the ability to hone in on specific groups, and that was the aspect he himself was involved with. However, even within the NSA there was a cover story meant to prevent people like Tice from realizing what they were doing.
"In one of the operations that I was in, we looked at organizations, just supposedly so that we would not target them," Tice told Olbermann. "What I was finding out, though, is that… Continue reading

The National Archives today released a set of records the 9/11 Commission gave it. It did so today because the commission told it it had to wait until 2009 to do so, presumably on the off chance that people would have forgotten about it all by then. The records are in two groups, Memorandums for the Record (MFR), which are available online, and other records, which are not available online.
Editor's Note: The National Archives 9/11 Commission Records URL's have been updated.
Kevin Fenton, who wrote this blog entry today, is one of the great researchers working with Paul Thompson and so many other fine people at HistoryCommons.org (formerly known to most of us as CooperativeResearch.org) to document our history. Not just about 9/11, but about aspects of our lives so appallingly rewritten by media and textbooks. The work underway at HistoryCommons is absolutely invaluable, and we encourage readers to get involved and otherwise support that work.
I have been trawling through the ones that are available online and I have learned a few things of interest.
(1) Stacks of the MFR are not actually available. Either they have not been reviewed yet (pending), or have been withdrawn because they are very classified, or they have been made available, but have had the bejesus redacted out of them.

(James Bamford has done another great deed for the public by revealing the extent of the NSA's wiretapping on U.S. soil, and how the NSA sub-contracts the vast majority of its work to Israeli high-tech firms bristling with "former" Israeli military intelligence agents, and in the case of Verint, a company with serious corruption issues. It was Bamford who popularized the existence of Operation Northwoods in his 2001 book, Body of Secrets. In The Shadow Factory, he sheds light in the secret rooms of Verizon and AT&T, and shows the NSA to be a very poor custodian of the nation's security.)
Bamford Brings the Goods
On October 14, 2008, James Bamford talked about some of the shocking research in his new book on Democracy Now!, with Amy Goodman:
Along with the mass surveillance being conducted on all U.S. users of AT&T and Verizon by Narus and Verint, (according to Bamford), two other Israeli-owned companies, Amdocs and NICE Systems, have their fingers in the wiretapping pie as well.
Christopher Ketcham preceded Bamford in September, with with the article "Trojan
Horse," that focuses on Verint, Amdocs, and CALEA (the legislation which
brought all of these problems into existence):
"Together, Verint and Amdocs form part of the backbone of the government's domestic intelligence surveillance technology. Both companies are based in Israel — having arisen to prominence from that country's cornering of the information technology market — and are heavily funded by the Israeli government,… Continue reading

A career Army officer who survived the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, claims that no evacuation was ordered inside the Pentagon, despite flight controllers calling in warnings of approaching hijacked aircraft nearly 20 minutes before the building was struck.
According to a time-line of the attacks, the Federal Aviation Administration notified NORAD that American Airlines Flight 77 had been hijacked at 9:24 a.m. The Pentagon was not struck until 9:43 a.m.
On behalf of retired Army officer April Gallop, California attorney William Veale has filed a civil suit against former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, Vice President Dick Cheney and former US Air Force General Richard Myers, who was acting chairman of the joint chiefs on 9/11. It alleges they engaged in conspiracy to facilitate the terrorist attacks and purposefully failed to warn those inside the Pentagon, contributing to injuries she and her two-month-old son incurred.
"The ex-G.I. plaintiff alleges she has been denied government support since then, because she raised 'painful questions' about the inexplicable failure of military defenses at the Pentagon that day, and especially the failure of officials to warn and evacuate the occupants of the building when they knew the attack was imminent" said Veale in a media advisory.
Gallop also says she heard two loud explosions, and does not believe that a Boeing 757 hit the building. Her son sustained a serious brain injury, and Gallop herself was knocked unconscious after the roof collapsed onto her office.
The suit also named… Continue reading
Privacy Advocates Expect Whistleblowers to Share Warrantless Wiretap Info After
Inauguration Day
By RYAN SINGEL
Nov. 11, 2008
When Barack Obama takes the oath of office on January 20, Americans won't just
get a new president; they might finally learn the full extent of George W. Bush's
warrantless domestic wiretapping.
Since The New York Times first revealed in 2005 that the NSA was eavesdropping
on citizens' overseas phone calls and e-mail, few additional details about the
massive "Terrorist Surveillance Program" have emerged. That's because
the Bush administration has stonewalled, misled and denied documents to Congress,
and subpoenaed the phone records of the investigative reporters.
Now privacy advocates are hopeful that President Obama will be more forthcoming
with information. But for the quickest and most honest account of Bush's illegal
policies, they say don't look to the incoming president. Watch instead for the
hidden army of would-be whistle-blowers who've been waiting for Inauguration
Day to open the spigot on the truth.
"I'd bet there are a lot of career employees in the intelligence agencies
who'll be glad to see Obama take the oath so they can finally speak out against
all this illegal spying and get back to their real mission," says Caroline
Fredrickson, the ACLU's Washington D.C. legislative director.
New Yorker investigative reporter Seymour Hersh already has a slew of sources
waiting to spill the Bush administration's darkest secrets, he said in an interview
last month. "You cannot believe how many people have told me to call them
on January… Continue reading

Project Censored, the media research group at Sonoma State University (SSU), has just released it's annual report on the top stories that didn't make the corporate mainstream news from the past year. The book is published by Seven Stories Press. Censored 2009, edited by director Dr. Peter Phillips with Dr. Andrew Roth, exposes the major stories Americans should know and care about that the "free press" just doesn't deliver. The top stories for this year can be viewed at the PC website and the piece in the North Bay Bohemian can be read here.
Project Censored award winning journalist and researcher Stephen Lendman has just written about the Project in a piece titled Project Censored's Media Democracy Advocacy which looks at the history of the Project as well as details in this year's volume. A lecture series hosting authors of this years top censored stories is presently underway at SSU for those in the Bay Area wishing to attend. The series is being broadcast at Free Speech TV this fall as well.
As acting Associate Director of Project Censored, I invite everyone to explore this year's book and help support media democracy in action. Our currently calamitous and critical condition as a fragile free society depends upon a well informed citizenry and I strongly believe that Project Censored is a major force in the direction of strengthening our society's democratic institutions and principles. Help spread the word if you… Continue reading
First, a comment from GeorgeWashington's Blogspot:
I've previously pointed out that the U.S. government heard the 9/11 plans from the hijackers' own mouths. Most of what I wrote about involved the NSA and other intelligence services tapping top Al Qaeda operatives' phone calls outside the U.S.
However, it turns out that the NSA was also tapping the hijackers' phone calls inside the U.S.
Specifically, hijackers Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi lived in San Diego, California, for 2 years before 9/11. Numerous phone calls between al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi in San Diego and a high-level Al Qaeda operations base in Yemen were made in those 2 years.
The NSA had been tapping and eavesdropping on all calls made from that Yemen phone for years. So NSA recorded all of these phone calls. Indeed, the CIA knew as far back as 1999 that al-Mihdhar was coming to the U.S. Specifically, in 1999, CIA operatives tailing al-Mihdhar in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, obtained a copy of his passport. It contained visas for both Malaysia and the U.S., so they knew it was likely he would go from Kuala Lumpur to America.
The above information comes from James Bamford, the Washington Investigative Producer for ABC's World News Tonight with Peter Jennings for almost a decade – where he won a number of journalism awards for his coverage national security issues – whose articles have appeared in dozens of publications, including cover stories for the New York Times Magazine, Washington Post Magazine, and the Los Angeles Times Magazine, and is the only author to write any books (he wrote three) on the NSA.…Continue reading

And while the new car does have some handling and styling tweaks that will see it live on in the hearts and minds of the WRX faithful, it remains that you're suddenly not trading off as much as usual by going second-hand.
While earlier versions of the WRX were the headline act and the STi was viewed more or less as a much pricier sideshow, by the time the 2008 version of the WRX arrived, the focus had shifted.
By then, the extra weight of the car had made the WRX less of a fire-cracker than it had been, meaning that the only version offering the sort of performance most buyers were looking for was, in fact, the STi.
It was the only version to offer the stylistic impact this market segment was after, too, and the wider wheel arches and body kit gave the STi the visual clout the then-new WRX simply did not.
The 2.5-litre engine which debuted in late 2005 (and, in fact, remains the engine in the new STi) was boosted to 221kW and 407kW (much as it still is today) for 2008 and a six-speed manual transmission was the only gearbox offered.
Unlike the new car unveiled recently which is available only as a sedan, the 2008 version was available exclusively as a hatchback in this market.
The sedan didn't arrive until late 2010 and, in any case, the hatchback was the better looking version and the most popular one sold here.
Certainly, there seems to be more second-hand hatchbacks around today than sedans.
The same year (2010) also brought the option of a two-pedal STi; a five-speed tiptronic automatic which was, predictably, ignored by the target audience. Finding one now will require some effort.
The handling was about what you'd expect for an all-wheel-drive car with a pacey engine; it could understeer if you headed into corners too quickly, but for the rest of the time it had epic levels of grip, even on lousy surfaces.
The ride could be firm but not unexpectedly so for buyers of this type of vehicle, and the only real let-down was the quality of the interior plastics which is something Subaru seems never to have completely nailed.
Left to its own devices, the STi flat four seems very strong and durable.
The problems start when maintenance is ignored or the unit is either abused or treated to a range of 'improvements' all aimed at extracting more performance.
There's a bit of a torque deficit below about 3000rpm which seems typical of this engine, but it can actually be tuned out via the on-board computer (to an extent, anyway). But any fiddles beyond that would make us think twice about a particular example.
It's not that the engine can't be tuned for more power – because it certainly can – it's just that unless you know exactly what's been done and by whom, you could be looking at a hand-grenade with the pin missing.
A bigger exhaust isn't much of a problem, provided it doesn't make the car drone along at highway speeds, but wholesale changes to boost pressure and ignition mapping can have profound effects on the engine's lifespan.
Obviously, any car with any factory warranty remaining will be a legal minefield should anything go wrong after such modifications have been carried out.
Beyond that, however, the Subaru engine has proved itself very tough in service and many owners have reported huge distances covered before major work has been needed.
Even things like water pumps and pulleys which many manufacturers recommend changing at the 100,000-150,000km mark seem to be stronger than that in a Subaru and experts we talked to say that 200,000km is not unusual for these components in the boxer four-cylinder.
The gearbox and clutch in the Subaru are less long-lived in some cases, though, and are known to be fuses.
That is, they're the components that will usually let go first in an abused car. It's not that they're necessarily weaker than in competing cars, rather that the performance of the STi's engine and the grip of the all-wheel-drive can really place these components under a lot of stress.
Make sure the manual gearbox shifts smoothly between all gears but particularly first and second and especially when the car is first started from cold.
While you're making a cold start, listen for ticking noises from the engine.
Essentially, they shouldn't be there and if they are, there's a chance you're looking at a car that is on the downhill run to oblivion thanks to skipped oil changes.
The clutch should engage smoothly and any vibration or jerking as the clutch takes up indicates either a worn clutch or flywheel, the latter probably being caused by the clutch getting hot too many times and leaving hot-spots on the flywheel.
This needs to be removed from the engine and machined to put right, so it's not a simple matter.
It's also worth taking a close look at the condition of the brake pads and tyres.
These components can also take a caning when an STi is used as Subaru intended, and they're not necessarily cheap to replace.
They can often also tell you a lot about how the car has been used or abused; a tyre with a feathered edge or small bits of molten rubber balling up on its tread is a pretty good bet to have been used hard at some stage.

- Performance is there if you work at it.
- Loads of grip in any circumstance
- Big street cred.
- Hatchback is a good size and shape for actually carrying things.
- Automatic is off the pace.
- Interior plastics and fit and finish can't match the opposition.
- Could be a time bomb if it's been raced or used hard all the time.
- Beware heavily modified cars.
Mitsubishi Evo X – The latest (and possibly last) hot-rod Lancer was fast and frenetic. Manual was best but spoiled by only having five gears. DSG not as good as it should have been. 3.5/5
Volkswagen Golf R – With all-wheel-drive the hottest Golf was a match for pretty much anything else at the price. Quality and classy package let down only by reliability cloud over optional DSG gearbox. Buy a manual. 4/5
Ford Focus RS – The hardest-edged hatchback of the lot in many ways. Awesome performance, sharp handling and clever front end even tamed front-drive layout. Collectible. 4/5

@Otto, are you a Hater or simple troll ?
@Jake, when you can afford to buy a New STi, then you''ll understand just how wrong you are !
@Para, what Lag, please explain the model year etc.. of your STi that is suffering lag ?
I have the 2008 STi R-Spec and it has not been THRASHED, in fact, I like all owners that purchase their WRX/STi Brand New, baby my car.
I have only ever allowed Liqui Moly Oils Lubricants to be used, as I have a trusted mechanic, the car has always been Hand Washed with Meguiars products etc... you get the Idea.
It is only those who buy 2nd hand cars like this, that thrash them and add the Chicken Cookers onto the Exhaust for that god awful WRX Noise.

So whats the point of having one of these if your going to baby it? Fair enough some people tend to drive harder than others, but seems like you only bought this car with a "look at me" attitude.

Dave, do you know anything about exhausts?
Also, chicken cookers are a term used to describe rotaries. Just because you bought a new WRX doesn't mean you have any idea about cars.

That would be the lag every single publication the world has been complaining about for 10 years. Subaru just can't get its turbos right and we need the aftermarket to fix it.

Like with any turbo-4 high boost V8 wanna-be, poor throttle response is signature. That's not trolling that's reality. Even with AWD, I seen the likes of SSs, 370z, even believe it or not V6 accords take them on.

A funny thing happened to the First Amendment on its way to the public forum. It was hijacked.
According to the Supreme Court, money is now speech, and corporations are now people.
Yet when real people without money assemble to express their dissatisfaction with the political consequences of this, they're treated as public nuisances -- clubbed, pepper-sprayed, thrown out of public parks and evicted from public spaces.

The Sports Network
DATE & TIME: Thursday, January 10, 9 p.m. (et)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Chaifetz Arena (10,600) -- Saint Louis, Missouri. Television: None. Home Record: UMass 4-1, Saint Louis 10-1. Away Record: UMass 4-0, Saint Louis 0-1. Neutral Record: UMass 1-1, Saint Louis 1-1. Conference Record: UMass 0-0, Saint Louis 0-0. Series Record: Saint Louis leads, 7-4.
GAMES NOTES: The final game of a eight-game homestand for Saint Louis takes place on Thursday as the Billikens begin their Atlantic 10 schedule against the Massachusetts Minutemen at Chaifetz Arena.
UMass has been blazing hot of late with wins in seven straight games entering play. The Minutemen have not lost in more than a month and are now 10-3 this season, including a perfect 4-0 mark in true road contests. This is also the conference opener for the Minutemen who finished in a four-way tie for fifth in the conference at 9-7 last year.
It has also been more than a month since Saint Louis dropped a decision after the Billikens knocked off Savannah State, 67-59, last Friday to earn its seventh straight victory as well. All seven of those wins came at home for the Billikens who are 10-1 at Chaifetz Arena this season and now 11-3 overall. Saint Louis surprised a lot of people last season when it won the A-10 Tournament after finishing the season 12-4 against conference opponents.
Since these teams first met during the 1995 season Saint Louis has a 7-4 edge in 11 meetings. Last year the Minutemen bested the Billikens in their only matchup to snap a three-game winning streak in the series by Saint Louis.
UMass looked comfortable against Eastern Michigan this past Saturday in posting a 75-61 win. The Minutemen had four players in double figures and connected on 11 shots from beyond the arc to win by double digits for the first time this season.
The fact that UMass has not been able to earn a win by a more comfortable margin before isn't because the Minutemen are not scoring well (72.8 ppg) but largely due to inefficient shooting and porous defense. The Minutemen are just 13th in the A-10 in field goal percentage (.409), despite being fourth in scoring. A-10 assists-leader Chaz Williams (15.5 ppg, 7.3 apg) has been scoring and distributing well for the Minutemen. Jesse Morgan (14.5 ppg) has also been putting up big numbers out of the backcourt, despite shooting poorly (.359 FG percentage), while Terrell Vinson (11.5 ppg, 4.9 rpg) has been the anchor inside.
Saint Louis hounded Savannah State on the defensive end and forced 19 turnovers which it traded in for 19 points in the Billikens' win last Friday. The Billikens also outscored Savannah State 24-3 from beyond the arc and 25-10 to overcome a 35-20 deficit on the boards.
Last season's success for Saint Louis was powered by its defense and that hasn't changed this year. The Billikens have held seven of the last eight opponents to less than 60 points, including five to less than 50. Overall the Billikens rank ninth nationally in points allowed per game (55) while holding teams to 41.5 percent shooting overall. The Billikens aren't a very strong team on the interior though, ranking second to last in the A-10 in rebounding (30.8 pg). Mike McCall Jr. (12.1 ppg) is the lead scorer on the team, while Dwayne Evans (11.0 ppg, 6.4 rpg) provides scoring from the frontcourt. Cody Ellis (11.1 ppg) can also contribute offensively.
A win in this game could be crucial for both of these teams as the look to contend at the top of what looks like a talented pool in the A-10. Although Williams' scoring ability will keep the Minutemen from falling behind too far, the Billikens defend too well to drop a game on their home floor.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Saint Louis 73, Massachusetts 67

|A debate over the case for Christianity. What historical facts about Jesus' life, agreed to by virtually all critical scholars, lead to the conclusion that Jesus actually rose from the dead? Did the disciples have hallucinations of Jesus rather than actually see Him? Was Jesus' resurrection body merely a spiritual body (a ghost-like, wispy, see-through, non-material body) or a real physical body? Did Jesus claim to be God? What factual evidence today inclines us to believe miracles (like the resurrection) are possible?

Cubs hang neon for-sale sign on rosterContinue reading.
Theo: "50-50″ Cubs could deal by All-Star break
SEATTLE – Enjoy it while you can.
Like the rare three-day burst of sunshine in Seattle over the weekend, the Cubs' recent surge in the win column could be short-lived now that the calendar turns to July and teams serious about making trades turn to the Cubs' long list of items for sale.
Contrary to recent media reports, the Cubs aren't close to any deals for their top trade-able asset, Matt Garza. But the Cubs have enough key pieces of their roster on the block that it's conceivable they could start making trades by the All-Star break two weeks from now.
Team president Theo Epstein called that a "50-50" possibility.
"Judging by the amount of calls that are going on and the number of pieces that we'd potentially have available," Epstein said, "and the opportunities that might present themselves for us to get better, yeah, I'd say 50-50."
He won't say who those players might be or what teams are calling.
But sources say at least two National League West teams and the Baltimore Orioles have strong interest in right-hander Scott Feldman (7-6 3.46) – who figures to have another strong following of scouts on hand in Oakland Tuesday when he starts the opener of a three-game series.
Garza, who on Wednesday starts the back half of another two-day Cubs showcase pitching event for scouts, could go down to close to the July 31 trading deadline as the Cubs try to leverage one of the few starters on the market with frontline ability and a postseason track record.
Closer Kevin Gregg, who finally blew a save Saturday for the first time in 13 tries, looks like the third-hottest Cubs target for contenders – perceived as no worse than a viable setup man in a pennant race.
