'The Middleman': Worst honeymoon ever
The Middleman presents one of the strangest yet brilliant plots for world domination I've ever seen.
Something's turned a poor woman named Bonnie into a zombie during a Honeymoon camping trip. She bit her husband but he didn't turn. The Middleman and Wendy track her down and capture her and discover she's no typical zombie. Not only is her heart still beating, instead of craving brains she's craving trout. Yes. Trout.
Leaving Bonnie with Ida for examination, the Middleteam visit the campsite to investigate. Double M gets a call from Ida who's discovered the root of the problem: a Peruvian Flying Pike. It bites anything that moves and its venom instantly turns victims into trout craving quasi-zombies which is why Bonnie's bite didn't turn her poor monotoned husband. While on the phone, Wendy gets attacked by said fish and finally bests it, repeatedly bashing it with a rock to finish it off. Too bad they needed it alive to synthesize an antidote.
They track the Pike's origin to the Odyssey & Oracle Exotic Fish Hatchery. After fighting and capturing fours guard (in 47 seconds), they find out that a man named Mr. White has been ordering the fish for unknown purposes. Bringing a Pike back to HQ, the antidote is found and Bonnie is saved. Except another another zombie's turned up. After capturing and curing the pour ditsy girl, they discover she drank this new energy drink and it tasted like Pike...and trout.
Going to the warehouse where she got it, they find one of the fishery guards in a suit. He's the mysterious Mr. White (played by Todd Stashwick of The Riches among others). A former hunter/poacher, he was bitten in the jungle by a Pike and wandered for a month quasi-zombified until a local tribesman cured him. Strangely, he felt all kinds of jazzed afterward and decided to use his new found knowledge to create a trout-craving, yellow-eyed, gray-skinned army in addition to reaping the financial benefits. He escapes with his delivery truck and leaved the Middleteam to fight his zombiefied drink models. Dubs and MM catch up with him just in time to stop him thanks to the rocket-powered bonus feature on Dubby's Smartcar.
Assorted Bits & Pieces
- Dubby began her training with Sensei Ping, though unfortunately he doesn't make any onscreen appearances. Despite the horror stories relayed by Ida and Mid-man's apprehension (Sensei Ping made MM cry during their sessions and he was his fave student), it goes exceedingly well and, after only an hour, she knows all kinds of special moves that MM didn't learn until later. He gets a little jealous that they got on so well while Wendy gets a little too full of herself after it.
- The name of the energy drink is four exclamation points and "pronounced" by doing jazz hands with an exaggerated, open mouthed expression and a foot stomp. So very awesome.
- Does anyone else get the feeling they're airing these episodes slightly out of order?
- Lacey calls her mother "Dr. Barbara Thornfield MD, PhD" or "Dr. Thornfield" every time. Without fail. As does Dubby. I'm liking Lacey (mostly) better now than about two episodes ago.
- A smattering of times used today: Breakfast Time, Snack Time, Nap Time, Bullet Time, Quittin' Time, Past Your Bedtime, and Hammer Time.
- Middleman speaks 18 Earth languages fluently.
- Moves that Sensei Ping have taught them both include the "Arm of Oblivion," "Danger Toes," "The Three Terrors," and "Pain's River." I totally want to learn "Danger Toes" just because.
- The "secret identity" issue for today was Wendy not being able to participate in their Art Crawl, an annual event Wendy and Lacey throw with their artists friends. Lacey invited her mom, who ended up not canceling at the last minute, which set up some extra special disappointment when Dubs has to leave in the middle of her spoken word piece. Noser's contribution is "Stump The Band" in which people name songs but, instead of playing them, all he simply says that he knows it.
- When Double M's been tries talking out his potential feelings of jealousy, all Ida responds with is "I don't care." Forcefully and repeatedly.
- A book MM reads is called "Bitten By Zombies: A Coping Guide" by M. Dixon. He's a little paranoid about the whole situation as one of the former Middlemen was zombified and had to be shot by his assistant, something he's looking to avoid.
Favorite Quotes:
"I get it I get it. It's like Bruce Lee coming back from the dead."
"And beating you with his own coffin." - Wendy and Ida before the training session with Sensei Ping
"The badger shouldn't bear its teeth when sitting at the tea table." - One of Sensei Ping's proverbs
"If we don't, her heart's going to explode like a saugage casing full of weasels." - MM about the potential horrible fate of quasi-zombified Bonnie
"Put a sock in it Circuit City." - Wendy to Ida
Your thoughts on the episode? Did I leave out your favorite part or quote? Would you imbibe an energy drink that tased like fish?

Critically Injured Student Still Recovering
A local Winona college student is still hospitalized after sustaining injuries in a car accident.
21 year old Saint Mary's University senior, Sabrina Bushlack of Mapleton, Minnesota, was critically injured July 16th, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Bushlack was injured after the taxi she was riding in was struck by a car that police said ran a red light. Bushlack, a biochemistry major and three year regular for the Cardinal volleyball team, remains hospitalized because of swelling on her brain and is in intensive care. Doctors are optimistic about her prognosis. A fund has been set up at Wells Fargo Bank to help the Bushlack family with rising medical expenses, including flying Sabrina back to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Donations may be made by contacting any Wells Fargo Bank and indicating that the donation is for the benefit of Sabrina Bushlack. A "Team Brina: Sabrina's Biggest Fans" Facebook page has been set up for family and friends to share their thoughts and prayers. More than 1,200 members have joined in support of Bushlack.

Third in a series.
By the NCAA's definition, major violations are those that "usually provide an extensive recruiting or competitive advantage" that "can lead to significant penalties against the school and involved individuals."
These penalties "are intended to deter schools from breaking the rules and to eliminate any competitive advantage."
In other words, schools that commit major infractions should suffer the consequences. The truth is: they usually don't.
A CBSSports.com study discovered during the past 25 years that the majority of college football programs that committed major violations actually had a higher winning percentage after being penalized.
|Major (Infraction) Impact
|Programs that saw their winning percentage decrease the most in the five-year period following a major infraction.
|Team (Year)
|Win Decrease
|Oklahoma State (1989)
|Washington (2004)
|Marshall (2001)
|Minnesota (1991)
|Virginia Tech (1987)
|Alabama (1995)
|Oklahoma (1988)
|Texas (1987)
|Washington (1992)
|Miami (1995)
So crime does pay.
In Part III of CBSSports.com's series on cheating in college football, we examine the winning percentage for the five seasons before and after each major infraction was handed down in the past 25 years. There have been 72 major violations since 1987, when SMU received the so-called "Death Penalty." For the study, SMU's 1987 team was not included because the team lost two seasons. We also excluded the 13 most programs flagged for major infractions since 2007 because they have not completed five seasons since those infractions.
Of the schools who committed the remaining violations, more than half (30) actually had a better winning percentage for the five-year period after the infractions were levied compared with the previous five seasons.
How is this possible when the NCAA clearly states that its penalties are to "eliminate any competitive advantage?" Is the NCAA, or more specifically the NCAA's Committee on Infractions, not strict enough when administering punishment? Or is it a reality that the programs know the "Death Penalty" never will be used again unless a school decides to operate like a modern day Caligula?
Since 1987, nearly three dozen programs have been eligible for the Death Penalty -- programs that have committed two sets of major NCAA rules violations within a five-year period -- but the NCAA hasn't taken that action. And based on the severity of what happened to SMU, several current and former NCAA officials and investigators believe it never will.
Add to that the Committee on Infractions' reluctance to ban schools from television -- Ole Miss was the last school to receive a live TV ban back in 1994 -- and programs have discovered it's not that difficult to overcome some scholarship losses and/or other financial limitations for a year or two.
The reward -- winning seasons, bowl bids, higher paying contracts with extensions for the coaching staff, etc. -- clearly outweighs the risk of getting caught.
|Five-Part Series: Cheating
|Part I -- Dodd: Hard to win without cheating
|Part II -- McMurphy: Teams that cheat the most
|Part III -- McMurphy: Major equals minor consequences
|Part IV -- Fischer: Accountable compliance officers needed
|Part V -- July 15: What we have learned
That always wasn't the case. Around the same time SMU received the Death Penalty -- former coach Phil Bennett described the damage to the Mustangs' program as a "nuclear bomb" -- the NCAA rolled into Stillwater, Okla., to investigate Oklahoma State's football program.
When the NCAA got done with Oklahoma State, the Cowboys' program resembled scorched Earth.
Oklahoma State didn't get the Death Penalty, but a near-Death Penalty: four years probation, a three-year postseason ban, a two-year television ban, scholarship reductions, recruiting limitations, you name it. Basically every possible penalty except vacating the Cowboys' wins -- and the Cowboys won: their 44 victories from 1984-88 remains the most prolific five-year stretch in school history.
And also the most costly.
"What happened got our attention," said Mike Holder, who was Oklahoma State's golf coach for more than 30 years until becoming athletic director in 2005. "It set our football program back for years."
More than two decades later, Holder said Oklahoma State still feels the impact.
"In some ways we're still trying to recover," Holder said.
In the five seasons before the 1989 NCAA sanctions, Oklahoma State had a 74.5 winning percentage. In the five seasons after the penalties, OSU had a 28.3 winning percentage, and averaged six fewer wins a season.
Oklahoma State isn't the only school that has had a hard time rebounding from major violations. Washington went 16-44 in the five seasons after its major violations in 2004, after winning 33 games the previous five years.
Other schools that fared significantly worse in the five-year period after their infractions included Marshall (dropping from 54 to 34 wins after its 2001 violation), Oklahoma (from 51 to 38 wins after its 1988 violation), Virginia Tech (from 35 to 22 wins after its 1987 violation), Minnesota (from 26 to 14 wins after its 1991 violation) and Alabama (from 52 to 39 wins after its 1995 violation).
After Oklahoma State's NCAA penalties, the Cowboys had only one winning season over the next 13 and didn't have consecutive winning seasons until 2002 and 2003 under coach Les Miles.
When the penalties came down on the Cowboys in 1989, Holder was in the midst of building the school's golf program into a national power. Under Holder, the Cowboys won eight NCAA golf titles. He says he was not involved and did not have any knowledge about the infractions committed by the football program, but remembers the impact.
"We were abysmal," Holder said. "It crippled our ability to compete and affected everything negatively from attendance to recruiting. It's hard to recover. Football is a numbers game: it takes so many good players and coaches. You can't recover overnight.
"I love college football. I look forward to Saturdays in the fall. A big part of the fun is having a team that has a chance to win. Those Saturdays [after the infractions] went by the wayside for more years than I would like to count. There were too many of those.
"There was not too much joy in Stillwater back then."
Oklahoma State's penalties came during a period of unprecedented rules breaking in what resembled the Wild, Wild Southwest.
Between 1985-89, nine major infractions were committed by programs in Texas and Oklahoma -- TCU, Houston, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and SMU (twice). That's nine of the nation's 24 major infractions during that time frame committed by schools from the two states divided by the Red River.
And a big reason for all the illegal activity can be summed up in three words: Hart Lee Dykes.
Before his ninth birthday, Dykes became the only person to have his name enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame and National Baseball Hall of Fame by winning the national Punt, Pass and Kick and Pitch, Hit and Run contests.
He later achieved another first: becoming the first person to put four college football programs on probation.
Illinois, Texas A&M, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State all were placed on probation for their "bidding war" to land the talented 6-foot-4, 218-pound wide receiver.
Oklahoma State won the Dykes Derby, but suffered the consequences.
|Hart Lee Dykes Saga
|NCAA allegation
|An assistant gave Dykes $100 the week before National Signing Day so Dykes and a friend could stay in a motel for two nights away from his hometown of Bay City, Texas, to avoid rival recruiters.
|Texas A&M
|An assistant parked a Datsun 280-ZX in front of Dykes' home and told him the car could be his if he signed with the Aggies. Also the assistant told Dykes' brother the coach could arrange employment for the brother's wife, assured him Dykes' father would receive medical treatments and that Hart Lee would be well taken care of at A&M.
|An assistant gave Dykes $1,000 cash in an envelope in a high school gymnasium so he would attend OU. Dykes didn't accept the money.
|Oklahoma State
|An assistant gave Dykes a $5,000 payment for signing with the Cowboys and Dykes received cash payments during his OSU career. He also was provided a sports car, with the payments and insurance paid for by three representatives of the university's athletics interests.
"How long does it take going from the second-worst probation in the history of college football to enough years of integrity, good sportsmanship and graduating players to repair your reputation?" Holder asked. "I don't think there is an answer to that question.
"Every day you move forward without a major violation is another step, but how many years does it take for us to forget what happened?"
It's hard to compare what's happening these days to two decades ago. The NCAA is investigating three teams ranked in last year's final AP poll -- Auburn, Oregon and Ohio State -- for a variety of allegations, including payments for players. It's impossible to make an apples to apples -- or rotten apples to rotten apples -- comparison when looking at the various violations during the past 25 years.
But the data suggests that committing a major infraction and going on probation has less of an impact in the past 10 years than it did back in the 1980s and 1990s.
One explanation why teams are winning more after the penalties: some of the recent major infractions, which the NCAA deems as providing "an extensive recruiting or competitive advantage," are really not that major. So the penalties, in turn, have been minimal.
Former Michigan and West Virginia coach Rich Rodriguez believes the NCAA is too worried about enforcing the minor rules and not taking care of college football's larger issues.
"I also think [the NCAA] may be a little misguided," Rodriguez said. "I think sometimes, instead of going after the bank robbers, we're going after the parking violators."
With a 434-page NCAA rule book, it's nearly impossible not to break some rules. Not to mention that the NCAA classifies everything that earned SMU the Death Penalty as a "major infraction," the same way it considers excessive text messages sent by Texas Tech staff members the past few years as a "major infraction."
But, obviously, the penalties are vastly different.
Holder said he believes the worst punishment is what happens to a school's integrity.
"The No. 1 consequence [of NCAA major infractions] is the damage to your reputation, anything that questions your integrity," Holder said. "That's probably the most valuable thing you have -- your integrity."
One reason programs actually have a better winning percentage in the past 25 years after probation likely is a change at the top. In nearly every instance the coaching staff responsible for infractions was replaced. With a fresh start schools actually benefitted from the major infractions -- at least in the win-loss column.
At Florida, coach Galen Hall was forced to resign during the 1989 season because of an NCAA investigation that eventually saddled the Gators with a one-year bowl ban and two years' probation. The Gators rebounded quite nicely thanks to the hiring of Steve Spurrier.
In 1990, Spurrier took over and was an instant hit, leading the Gators to 12 consecutive nine-win seasons, including the 1996 national championship.
Another reason programs have succeeded despite of major infractions is because the NCAA has become reluctant to invoke a television ban.
In 1994, Ole Miss was banned from live television appearances for one year. Little did the Rebels know they would become the last FBS program to receive a TV ban. Of the programs that committed major infractions between 1987 and 1994, 14 of the 24 had a lower winning percentage following their penalties. However, since the last TV ban, 20 of 34 programs that committed major infractions were more successful after their major infractions.
More recent instances show that major infractions simply don't carry as much impact. Seven of the eight schools that received penalties in 2005 and 2006 had higher winning percentages for the five-year period after the infractions than before it.
Alabama coach Nick Saban said schools and the NCAA should work together as partners and not against each other.
"This should not be something that we have the NCAA over here and the institutions over here," Saban said. "We should be partners in trying to operate within the rules of what we all need to do so we can keep a competitive balance and have a respect both ways."
Since the 1989 infractions, Oklahoma State has not had any major violations. Holder, the school's AD since 2005, has stressed to the entire department he has no tolerance for cheating.
"There has to be a firm commitment to playing by the rules," Holder said. "There are so many athletes in an athletic department. If someone breaks a rule, when you find out about it, you deal with it in a proper manner with swift justice.
"All of our coaches understand it. At all of our coaches meetings -- I tell them there's one way to lose your job and that's by breaking the rules. You get everyone on the same page. It's not to say things won't happen -- there are a lot of moving parts -- but we're committed to playing by the rules.
"Some things are more important than winning: playing by the rules, good sportsmanship and graduating your players. That's our charge."
Former Ohio State linebacker Chris Spielman agrees.
"There has to be appropriate efforts on everybody to say: 'Look, you've got to define who you are as a university and who you stand for. Do we stand for honor or integrity?' The athletic department and coaching staff have to make that same commitment," Spielman said.
And if Oklahoma State's coaches needed any more motivation to avoid breaking NCAA rules, here's the biggest one. Following the 1989 penalties, Oklahoma State alum Boone Pickens was so embarrassed that he disassociated himself from the football program for about a decade, Holder said.
The Cowboys are now back in Pickens' good graces as the uber-booster has donated about $265 million to the school's athletic department and the football stadium is named after him.
"He [Pickens] has made it very clear to us," Holder said. "If we want to lose our No. 1 supporter, then start breaking the rules."
How ironic? The NCAA's greatest tool against teams committing violations is not fear of the NCAA, but fear of losing a booster. That pretty much sums up the state of college football today.

Getting a Job in the AV Field
"Obtaining a job in any career field requires a set of skills that remain pretty standard no matter which company is interviewing. The A/V industry requires all of the same skills, whether tangible or intangible, depending on which department is being discussed." Says Katie Pahira of CSAV Systems in New Jersey. For instance, a sales person requires a great deal of "people skills". Negotiating price, suggesting alternate plans, and creating long term relationships with clients can be tricky, sometimes tense, however learning how to talk with people, understanding the concept of empathy, and always being conscious of voice tone can build a strong intangible skill that will be attractive in any sales position.
Many companies now-a-days are concentrating more on their marketing efforts and the A/V industry, again, is no different. A marketer must be a good communicator and empathetic negotiator, but also must be creative and have the ability to adapt in changing circumstances. Whether a marketing agent is working on a company website, social media platforms, or other campaigns, the ability to make their company stand out above all the others is the goal. Imaginative marketing and advertising will achieve this goal and allow for the ability to adapt to new trends. These are the best skills for a marketer to employ.
The A/V industry does, however, have a unique department that requires a whole different set of skills. Of course, this is the technology department. Audio/Video technicians must have not only the intangible skills that the sales and marketing team possess; they must retain elusive skills of their own as well as physical skills in the field.
As a technician, the most obvious skill to be acquired is knowledge of the equipment. This skill, although apparent, requires constant self-educating as technology changes almost on a daily basis. Being aware of the newest technologies not only assures the client they are getting the latest model of a piece of equipment, but perhaps the most cost effective one. For instance, a new LCD screen TV could cost double the price of the previous model, while the technology isn't that much better. Knowing this saves the client money while gaining their trust in having their best interest in mind, therefore making knowledge of the product a skill of value for a technician.
Since half of an A/V technician's job is the A – audio, having acoustical expertise, or developing an "ear" for any given project area is attractive to the client, and in turn, attractive to a potential employer. Every environment has a different way of absorbing or bouncing sound. Being able to recognize these differences, and having the knowledge to work with them, allows a technician to better outfit the room or area with the proper equipment for the best A/V system.
In the Audio Video Industry, it is not only important to retain these skills, but to know when and how to use them. Whether looking for employment, or simply looking to excel in the field of technology, refining these skills is vital to be an attractive candidate, and provide the confidence needed to be a five-tool player in any job, no matter in what field or industry that job may be. Intangible skills take time to refine, and a lot of the learning, whether hands on or impalpable, takes place in the workforce. But as professionals, we should always strive to keep active, keep learning, and keep acquiring any skills we can.

On Tuesday, December 18th, at 11:41 pm, Warren County Sheriff's Office Deputies responded to Green Valley Mobile Home Park Lot 37 for an armed robbery in progress. Two male subjects, one wearing a red hoodie armed with a knife and another wearing a gray hoodie armed with a handgun, made entry into the residence and held the two victims at gun point while robbing them. These men were 19-year-old Jerry Cuzick of Bowling Green and 19-year-old Kaeleb Boaz of Elkton. One victim (this was a juvenile) was struck in the head with the pistol and was later transported to the Medical Center of Bowling Green by EMS for treatment. When deputies arrived on the scene the perpetrators had already fled the scene on foot. Deputies conducted a neighborhood canvas and were able to locate the perpetrators in Lot 94. Cuzick and Boaz were placed under arrest and lodged in the Warren County Regional Jail. During the investigation, the handgun and knife used in the commission of the crime as well as the property taken were recovered. Through investigation, after the initial arrest of the two main suspects, it was later determined that 28-year-old Michael Miller and 19-year-old Steven Hayes both of Bowling Green were complicit in the commission of the robbery.
Cuzick's charges included: Robbery First Degree, Assault Second Degree, Tampering with Physical Evidence, Possession of Marijuana, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
Boaz's charges included: Robbery First Degree and a Logan County District Counrt warrant for Possession of Marijuana, Fleeing or Evading Police, DrugParaphernalia, and No Operator's License.
Miller's charges included: Robbery First Degree (Complicity).
Hayes's charges included: Robbery First Degree (Complicity) and Tampering With Physical Evidence.
The investigation is ongoing.

A3s evolved from the Toyota Production System in the early 1960s as a simple, concise method for process improvement. The designation A3 stands for the international size of the paper (11 x 17) used to capture all the important information for easy understanding and decision making. The key element is not the form itself but the thinking that goes into the problem analysis and resolution practice. Common uses for A3s include: problem solving, proposals, project status and even value stream maps or hoshin planning.

Research teams from the fields of STEM-Plus, social justice and intercultural studies have been selected to receive the inaugural awards for a new post-doctoral fellowship program announced in April by the Vice President, Frost Campus Manoj Patankar, Ph.D. The program is designed to increase Saint Louis University's interdisciplinary research abilities.
The STEM-Plus team:
The STEM-Plus post-doctoral fellow will support their research about the impact of climate and land use changes on flooding in urbanized human and natural systems.
Social justice team:
|Research team leaders Jason Knouft, Ph.D., Diana Bartelli Carlin, Ph.D., associate vice president for graduate education and program coordinator, Hisako Matsuo, Ph.D., and Michal Rozbicki, Ph.D. Photo by Jeremiah Ingram
The team will explore immigrants' experiences with the health care delivery system in the United States through a community-based gerontological research project
The intercultural research team:
Their project explores multidisciplinary approaches to the study of interculturality.
The three research teams were selected by internal review teams from a total of 18 submitted proposals involving faculty researchers, representing 21 departments, colleges, schools and centers across the SLU campus.
The specific recipient of each post-doctoral fellowship will be selected by the respective research team with an appointment renewable for up to two years. The principal investigators and fellows will present a panel discussion summarizing the progress of their research projects at the annual graduate education research symposium in spring 2012.
"The fellowship competition demonstrated that currently there is considerable interdisciplinary research collaboration across the University," noted Diana Bartelli Carlin, associate vice president for graduate education, who coordinated the project. "The fellowship program can encourage expansion and better position researchers to secure external funding. Everyone who assisted with development of the project and reviewing proposals is looking forward to following the research teams' progress."

Don't grieve for me when I'm gone,
I'm still here somehow.
Some place you cannot see me yet.
A flame in the growing dark.
My friends you will move on and fight.
My children will grow strong and tall.
Noble in nature,
Strong in character.
I've given the rebels their best chance in life.
But I will always live.
In the hearts of the ones who knew me.
Watching safe and hidden.
The flame in the background.

Bobby Jindal on Crime
Republican Governor; previously Representative (LA-1)
This isn't a crime that is just happening in some faraway place. As we've seen from investigations by Louisiana State Police recently, it's happening here in Baton Rouge and across our state.
That's why we'll propose a legislative package to prosecute criminals to the fullest extent of the law, and protect the vulnerable and often forgotten victims of these terrible crimes.
JINDAL: We've submitted the two-drug protocol to a federal court. So, the judge will have to decide whether we're allowed to proceed. We will likely support legislation in this session to give the Department of Corrections more options. And we actually have a different protocol. We weren't able to get that one-drug protocol. So, we're likely to go to the legislators this year to ask them to give the Department of Corrections other options. Like many states, we're not always able to find and secure these drugs.
Next session, we will also work to take the next step in our involuntary civil commitment pilot program legislation passed last session. We will also work to impose additional penalties when sex offenders fail to submit to electronic monitoring as required by law.
We will improve the safety of our child-care facilities by increasing penalties when a sex offender is on the premises and penalize childcare providers who knowingly employ sex offenders. We will also improve licensing procedures to include the ability to revoke or suspend licenses for certain alleged crimes, including the facility allowing a sexual offender to be present on the premises.
We will protect our ballparks, cub scouts and other kid groups and teams by prohibiting a sex offender from volunteering to coach or participate in any way when activities include children.
What was very disturbing to me --I disagreed with the court's ruling, both because they said that the punishment was not proportional to the crime --it certainly seems to me that, if the state's going to put to death any criminals, other than those that commit murder, certainly should be putting to death those that molest, that rape, that attack our children. Certainly the juries should have that option.
But what was really disturbing to me was part of the rationale of the ruling. The court said that it sensed emerging national consensus. It sounded to many that it looked like the court was taking opinion polls rather than reading the Constitution and interpreting the law.
Proponents support voting YES because:
Rep. CONYERS: Some 650,000 men and women are leaving the Federal and State prisons each year. While the vast majority of the prisoners are committed to abiding by the law and becoming productive members of society, they often encounter the same pressures & temptations that they faced before prison. More than two-thirds of them are arrested for new crimes within 3 years of their release. This exacts a terrible cost in financial terms as well as in human terms. The Second Chance Act will help provide these men and women with the training, counseling and other support needed to help them obtain & hold steady jobs; to kick their drug and alcohol habits; rebuild their families; and deal with the many other challenges that they face in their efforts to successfully rejoin society.
Opponents recommend voting NO because:
Rep. GOHMERT: The programs that are sought to be renewed are ones we don't have information on how successful they were. I can tell you from my days as a judge, there was some anecdotal evidence that it looked like faith-based programs did a better job of dramatically reducing recidivism. In addition:

Insul Cast Delta Crete
Has anyone heard of or used "Insul Cast Delta Crete" ?? It is an insulating refractory castable that may also be troweled in place. As part of the description it says: Ideal for insulating solid masonry in bread and pizza ovens". It also states to apply a minimum of 2-3 inches thick over top of bread oven dome. Does this material sound like a useful insulator instead of a blanket wrap and vermiculite??? Or maybe in addition to?? It is made by the same folks who make Heat Stop 50.
George Stein
Re: Insul Cast Delta Crete
As a general rule the denser the material is then the poorer an insulator it is. I'll bet the stuff is a lot heavier than vermiculite or blanket, therefore you'll probably need a thicker layer.
Re: Insul Cast Delta Crete
If it's priced like heat-stop, you may be driven back to vermiculite. Not saying anything against heat-stop, I've used it and like it, but boy is it expensive.
Re: Insul Cast Delta Crete
All of the premixed refractory products are dear. We'd be better off making our ovens from mud. I was talking to an aboriginal guy the other day who told me that people up north tunnel a hole into the base of a large ants nest, many of which are as tall as a person and quite numerous. They then simply light a fire inside, throw in whatever they want to cook and seal up the hole with something.

Vintage Computer Festival Celebrates History of Computing with
live antique computers and living legends from the computer industry
LIVERMORE, CALIFORNIA (PRWEB) October 26, 2007 -- The Vintage Computer
Festival, a yearly event that celebrates computers and their history, is
being held on November 3-4 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View,
Anticipation is building for what is expected to be the biggest and most
well-attended event since the Festival's founding ten years ago. Celebrated
once a year in Silicon Valley, as well as three other locations worldwide,
the Vintage Computer Festival is the largest and most prestigious event of
its kind, featuring a lecture series, an exhibition of working vintage and
antique computers, and a marketplace for traders to buy and sell vintage
computers. Collectors from around the world attend this event, which was
founded in 1997. The Festival also recognizes its own history this year as
it marks its tenth anniversary.
This year, attendees will be treated to several historical figures in the
computer industry, including Lee Felsenstein (designer of the classic
Osborne 1, one of the first portable computers, and the SOL-20, one of the
first personal computers), Al Hoagland (designer of the first commercial
disk drive), legendary MIT proto-hackers Bill Gosper Steve Russell (author
of the first videogame, Spacewar!), Wesley Clark (not the general, but the
inventor of the first transistorized computer in the US) and prolific
computer book author Lance Leventhal, who wrote dozens of computer self-help
books throughout the 1970s and 1980s.
One of the keynote sessions at the Festival this year is a panel featuring
the engineers who in the early 1960s designed the LINC (Laboratory
INstrumentation Computer), which was a revolutionar computer design that
some consider to be the first "personal computer".
The Festival also features a marketplace for collectors to buy, sell and
trade vintage computers. There is also a screening of documentaries and
films on both days of the event that have vintage computing or vintage
technology themes. Some of the filmmakers will be present to talk about
their work and give introductions to their films. There will also be an
abstract artist (Christine Finn) on site throughout the event constructing
a collaborative artwork based on discarded technology, culminating at a talk
she will give on the piece at 3:00pm on Sunday.
The Computer History Museum is an ideal location for the Festival as it
allows attendees the opportunity to tour the Museum's collection while also
attending the lectures and exhibits organized by the VCF. Tours of the
Museum's collection will be given throughout the afternoon on each day of
the Festival. Special theme tours during the weekend will include "A Brief
History of the Internet" and "The History of Video Games", which are both
guided by Museum docents. There will also be live demonstrations of ancient
mainframe computers that have been painstakingly restored to working
condition, including an IBM 1401 mainframe circa 1960 and a Digital
Equipment Corporation (DEC) PDP-1 minicomputer circa 1961 running Spacewar!,
the first ever videogame, written in 1962. The game's author, Steve
Russell, will also be speaking at the Festival.
The Computer History Museum is located at 1401 North Shoreline Blvd. in
Mountain View, California, just off highway 101. The Vintage Computer
Festival opens at 9:30am each day, with first sessions beginning at 10:00am
and the exhibition and marketplace opening at 2:00pm each day. The film
festival runs from 11:00am to 6:00pm each day. The Festival officially ends
at 6:00pm on Sunday.
Complete event information including admission, directions to the venue and
the event schedule can be found on the VCF website:

Hi Guys,
I was just thinking about the ridiculous schedule the WWE has. Not only is raw going three hours, but (lets be honest both set of wrestlers are duel branded now) then every month you have another three hour PPV, plus the numourous house shows that each of them do a year... give and take a few (Undertaker for example). So with Raw going three hours, would it not make sense to reduce the number of 'B' Level PPV to every two months maybe (as there practically useless anyway) making the 'Big Four' PPV's 4 hours. It's a small tweak to the PPV schedule that gives these guys just a little room to breath and take a break. Hay it might no have any effect what so ever.
What do you guys think?

Letter: Which is which?
E.L. "Bud" Ruff, Naples
Which is which?
In a number of recently published letters, Republicans have continually insulted all Americans who voted for President Barack Obama by calling them "low- information voters."
Actually the words do fit many Americans, so the question is, who are the true low-information voters? Most Obama voters were Democrats and liberals, middle-class or poor persons. So they voted for the party most likely to look out for their best interests.
On the other hand, the Republicans voted to protect the wealthy, believing tax-cuts for the rich would also benefit the average American.
This was tried several times before and has never worked. The last three Republican administrations ran the national debt into the stratosphere; the bubble burst, and we were saddled with the Great Recession.
These same voters have been calling Obama a socialist for at least four years now, even though he has never initiated a single social program or any so-called entitlements. Many of these same voters are the "birthers," who apparently still think the president is not a legal citizen, and is a Muslim. How dumb are these people?
Certainly President Obama is guilty of wanting all Americans to have health care; sounds like some bad man, right? I do believe this makes it perfectly clear that the Republican voter is the low-information voter with little knowledge or common sense. Facts cannot be denied.
