I have a 01 Grand Cherokee Laredo I6 with 3 different 4wheel drive settings. For whatever reason my 4wheel full time went out this summer and i was left with the other 2 settings. Now that its snowing, i have to use 4part time to get out of the snow but when i put it back in 2wheel, it won't go back. It still drives like its in 4part time and i can't drive over 30mph and the steering pulls. After shifting in and out a bunch of times, backing up in reverse, sooner or later it will shift back into 2wheel and drive fine. What do I need to do to fix this, where can I go besides the factory, and what kind of cost am I looking at?
I have an '86 that also does this, but not sure if the cause will prove
to be the same for your 2001. On the '86 there is a vacuum solenoid
(vacuum motor) that pushes the engage lever to engage the front wheel
drive clutch. These solenoids are very sensitive to the amount of
vacuum. If you have a small vacuum leak there may not be enough to do a
positive engage/disengage. This is especially a problem in the winter.
What I find helps temporarily is to shut off the heating system (which
is also vacuum operated if you have the AC option) and take my foot off
the gas either coasting or going down hill (thereby building up more
vacuum). This is a pain to do in the winter, especially in a storm
where you really need that heat on the windshield full time to avoid
freezing up. You can by a bypass mechanical system from
or find out where you are leaking from. You may have to replace the
vacuum solenoid if it is sticking from wear or if the diaphragm within
is leaking.
Sounds like you have a NVG242 transfer case. The suggestion about a possible vacuum problem only applies to pre 90 Cherokees with a disconnect Dana 30 front axle. After 90 Cherokees did away with the problem prone disconnect front axle. Your 01 Grand Cherokee probably has the Command Trac transfer case with shift positions of 2W hi, 4w part time, 4w full time, Neutral, and 4w Low Part time. If you don't have any leaks from your transfer case indicating a lack of lubrication cause of self destruction, you may just have a shift linkage slop problem. The Z gate shifter Jeep used on the Cherokees is weak and clunky. It is difficult to feel the detent in the transfer-case through the handle. You might first try to readjust your transfer case shift linkage.
Shift the transfer case into 4low. Go underneath and loosen the adjustment clamp till it will slide on the rod. Make sure the lever on the transfer case is all the way back in the last detent. Go back inside and carefully pop the bezel cover off the transfer shifter. Place a 1/8" spacer between the shift lever and the back of the Z gate opening. (a 1/8 allen wrench works well for a spacer). Go back underneath and take all the slop out with the clamp towards the rear and tighten the clamp. Then shift the transfer case through all the detents. If you don't have enough travel to get 4 low or 2hi your linkage probably has too much slop. You may have to readjust the clamp position slightly to center the slop so you can get all the hi range positions. The 4wd shift fork is pushed out by a spring when you shift into 2wd so it may not come out of 4wd right away even after you shift back into 2wd. This is why you sometimes need to back up and go forward a time or two to release the front axle.
If adjusting the linkage doesn't correct your shifting troubles you have a more serious problem. Don't forget to check the oil level in the transfer case while you are under there. If the oil is low, smells burnt or has a silver color you may want to look for a replacement transfer case. New Process or New Venture Gear transfer cases are not very hard to work on nor are parts very expensive. If you do the work yourself a complete rebuild will only cost about $120 for a rebuild kit, $125 for a 242 chain and if the other parts are good that is it. The 242 has a inter axle differential so you can run 4wd full time. If yours has broken or the shift fork is worn maybe add another $80-120 in parts.
Thanks for the input, but he has a different tcase than ours. I would suggest making sure all tires are the same brand, tread wear and inflation. The tcase can be forcibly shifted into 4WD, but the shifter will not force it out of gear. There is only a little spring in it that does that. If there is any pressure on the gears, it will not shift out. The things I mentioned are almost mandatory for the NP 242 tcase. Stopping and backing up will usually allow it to shift out. Sometimes letting off the gas and or tapping the brake pedal are others.

A snow shovel with a metal handle is a dumb idea.
But I own one. It had to win some sort of worst-engineered-product-of- the-year award in the year that it was manufactured . . . which seems to be circa 1948.
Think about it: An unwrapped metal handle in the cold. You need gloves made out of actual polar bear hide to have a chance to keep your hands warm. And to top it off, despite the shovel having a handle sturdy enough to lift a Sherman tank, it has a scoop that is approximately large enough to remove two tablespoons of snow at a time.
In other words, I need a new snow shovel. And my cheap, devious mind has a plan for getting one: I'll go out and help people shovel during the snow storm and write a column about it. Since I'm doing it for work, I'll have no choice but to expense the new snow shovel to the company.
Let's see how it goes.
First, let me say this new $25 snow shovel drives like a Mercedes. I had always suspected your fingers didn't have to turn blue after a snow-shoveling job, but I was never certain until now.
What I am not certain about is why Sheena Parsons and I are shoveling this person's driveway in the 200 block of E. 18th Street. This isn't Sheena's driveway. Her driveway is across the street and it is already cleaned.
"I've only met a couple of people in the neighborhood, and this is one of them, so . . ." said Sheena, a research assistant at KU.
Sheena gave me one tip for my day of snow shoveling — stay hydrated.
In turn, I have one free tip for the good people of the 200 block of E. 18th Street. The next time a 10-inch snowstorm is in the forecast, add this to your list of preparations: Make a point to meet Sheena.
What in the . . . ? I have to do a double take. This is Missouri Street, and it is as clean as a whistle, when many other side streets still look like a snowmobile course for the Winter Olympics.
Missouri Street gets cleared before other streets in Lawrence, Kansas? What's next: City crews clearing out the parking lot for the Tiger Alumni Center? Oh well, there is a trio of people digging out the drift that blocked their driveway near 27th and Missouri, so I stop to show off my shovel.
I meet Chris Edmondson. Guess what? This isn't his driveway either. He's a neighbor. But he's out here because the owner's husband is away at a convention. (Note to self: New way to get out of snow shoveling.) Edmondson said it is the least he can do. His neighbors have come and mowed his yard when he's been down in the back. It's just that type of neighborhood. Who would have thought it on Missouri Street?
I stick around and help a family nearby. It was two ladies wearing skirts trying to shovel a driveway, and a son that handled a shovel like he was afraid it might bite him. When I first arrived, they protested that I didn't need to help. Maybe it was just them being nice or maybe it was my outfit of oil-stained coveralls, a face that forgot the razor, a cowboy hat and a hot-rod shovel.
But I just started shoveling anyway. I found a truism in life: No one really stops you from shoveling their driveway.
Me and the old F-150 decide to go big time. We're looking for a celebrity shovel job. I head by the mayor's house, but pass. I don't think he has a sidewalk, and he has a driveway larger than I'm interested in. So, I head to the vice-mayor's house. (Look it up for extra points.)
We're in West Lawrence now. But I don't make it to the vice-mayor's house. I see a family out shoveling, so I decide to offer my services. I do a U-turn to find a place to park. But I guess I don't put enough "U" in the U-turn, so I get stuck.
No problem. My new shovel is up to the task. I go to grab it out of the pickup bed and . . . Friggin' Frosty. I've left it on Missouri Street. Missouri.
Fear not. I'm a real man, so of course I have a spare garden shovel with me. I dig out and drive back to Missouri Street and apologize for subjecting my nice new shovel to that.
I also make a decision: West Lawrence is on its own.
I go to the Oread neighborhood to be surrounded by some Jayhawks. I find one, and let's be honest, she's attractive. (I have a feeling honesty is not going to pay when my wife reads this.)
But I only mention it because I was surprised that no young college men had come to her aid. After all, a group of them were just a block up the street participating in what best could be described as "Snow shoveling brought to you by Budweiser."
This young woman, in the meantime, is working to shovel out her car, which I kid you not, had snow piled up to the bottom of its driver's-side window.
My shovel and I go through the pile like a Tiger fan goes through handkerchiefs. This young woman now has a freed car to go about her day, while the bozo boys up the block continue to clean out a cooler quicker than their driveway.
I'll just say this: I won't declare chivalry at KU dead — just hung over.
Thankfully, I remember Sheena Parsons' advice: Stay hydrated. The Wheel is nearby. I've never personally known The Wheel to serve water, but I assume there is a chance.
I get there and reluctantly decide to leave my shovel on the business' front porch. The last time I took a shovel into a bar, things got a little complicated.
After about 30 minutes (the waters there are big), I'm walking down the hill. I see it unfold in front of me. A car tries to pull into an unplowed alley and immediately gets stuck. The driver's girlfriend gets out with a six-inch ice scraper to begin digging out the car. An ice scraper.
Two college guys are walking by. They see me — with coveralls, a cowboy hat and a shovel — walking down the hill. Without a bit of surprise in their voice, they tell the woman, "guy with a shovel," and keep walking to the bar.
Ah, to be young again.
Kyle Miller and Sean Ayers are both young. They're 10 years old and are standing in the 1100 block of Connecticut Street.
They take a break from shoveling to tell me that this 10-inch snow is nothing.
Kyle used to live in Minnesota, he tells me.
"We once got a foot and three inches of snow (I don't know, perhaps he is forbidden to say 15 inches), and they still didn't cancel school," Kyle says.
Oh yeah, says Sean. He used to live in Washington state.
"There was snow up to my neck and they still didn't close school," Sean says.
Ah, to be young again.
I pitch in and realize we're digging out a car with handicapped tags on it. Eventually, a man comes out of the house and says a lot of 'thank you's.' He tells us that his wife already had lost a day of work because she couldn't get out.
He asks the boys what he owes them. They ask for $5 apiece. He gives them $10 apiece. The man leaves happy. The boys leave happy. And I leave with my shiny new shovel.
Yeah, I know, the company's not going to pay for it.
Funny thing, though: Somehow I think I still got a good deal today.

Resistance 3 Multiplayer Dev Diary: Modes And Abilities
I'll be delivering my beta impressions very soon but in the meantime, you may want to check out the cogs of the machine.
...boy, that sounded a lot better in my head. Anyway, I was attempting to allude to the behind-the-scenes information from Insomniac, concerning the multiplayer. It's a new developer diary and if you plan to partake of the online fun in the upcoming shooter, you should probably visit the PlayStation Blog. There you will find a video detailing the active and passive abilities, and the "inspirations in developing Resistance 3's multiplayer philosophy, from play modes and weapons to special abilities." Personally, I'm a big fan of such videos; they give me an idea as to how designers implement their ideas through a series of phases. It isn't just magic, as I often like to think it is.
Resistance 3 has gone gold and will be ready to roll on September 6. The Chimera are swarming; it's our last chance to get rid of 'em for good.

finally i would like add is my thoughts about companies letting bad demos out the door. it is very damaging and it is hard reverse negatiive impressions once they are formed. why do companies do that then try to blame it on an old build? it's not a very smart business practice and probably costs companies a lot of sales. the crysis2 ps3 multiplayer demo comes to mind. the reaction to it was so bad ea yanked from psn. crytek shot itself in the foot there much like insomiac did with r3 demo. not very smart all.

It still obviously is true what you say, it is bad promotion if the beta is bad and should be avoided at all cost. My point is just that these test runs are not only to promote the game, above all it is a necessary part of the development cycle.

Game devs are still acting like it's 1998. Multiplayer is not some new science. You had it in your last game and it's going to be exactly the same in your next one. Your "demos" should be exactly what the customer is expected to see in the final product. When we see crap and then decide not to buy based on that, who can blame us?
Saturday, August 06, 2011 @ 3:35:11 PM
you brought up interesting point on another thread alienage. you mentioned ben did not tell people the mp was no good in medal of honor review. i think you said you would not mind if someone who had more of a background in mp looked at that part of a game. i agree with that. how else can i put this? it's just like i would not prefer someone who does not care for the single player part of games covering that part of a game. that's understandable, right? this is not an attack ben or psxe. it is a very well written site thanks to ben plus it has a great community. it is my favorite site so please don't take this the wrong way.

But what people need to understand is the difference between a beta and a demo. A multiplayer beta is called a beta because the code is at that stage: The beta stage. We never see a single player beta because beta testing of a single player game can be done inhouse. They don't need a public beta of a single player game.
The only case where a multiplayer game do not need a public beta is when the game is 100% built on an already fully functional multiplayer platform - like the Unreal engine.
So that is why the beta is there: Because it is NEEDED. The developers NEED to test their code before going live. They can't risk hundreds of thousands of customers hammering their servers on release day and nothing works.
A different discussion is the state of the code when it is released as a public beta. Like apparently this beta for R3, and as we also remember from the recent Uncharted 3 beta the first few days. I agree with you all. How did they get past the internal testing without finding these obvious bugs?
Now that is something I struggle explaining. They really need to be a bit more careful before releasing something in public like that.
All I am saying is that the mp betas are there for a reason, and they are betas, not demos. A mp demo can - and should imo - be released later.

kinda worrying when you think the games due out in a month!
looks like insomniac have learned nothing from resistance 2!
my lord that had more bugs then a greeks garden!
3rd times the charm?
always said they could never make a bad game, but R3 looks like proving that wrong.
always said insomniac will never release things till there perfect, well dont even need to look to R3 for that......
so what will the 3rd one be?
2 strikes, bases are loaded, what shal be the kicker?
come on ted you can do better then this!!!!!!!!!!
is this how you really want to leave your fans after all these years?
would be like epic finishing on gears 2!
Sunday, August 07, 2011 @ 10:37:12 AM
I am quite displeased to hear that there will be no special edition besides the doomsday edition in north america.
Maybe it's because the collector's edition of resistance 2 didn't sell well because I still see a lot of them on the shelves in retailers today.
There are no comments to display.

Metro Experts Support Constellation Boulevard Station
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority released a report Wednesday on the Westside Subway Extension's seismic and safety issues that favors a Constellation Boulevard location for the Century City stop. Metro states that scientists have recommended the Constellation Boulevard route in order to avoid two earthquake faults in the area. The experts, who include seismologists, geologists and engineers, said that tunneling can be done safely under Beverly Hills High School . Fieldwork and research also failed to detect any active or inactive oil wells on the high school campus that would be in the path of potential subway tunnels. However, no decision about the final placement of the subway route has been made. The Westside Subway Extension would travel through Beverly Hills to proposed stops at Wilshire/La Cienega and Wilshire/Rodeo, then onward to one of two proposed stops in Century City: Constellation Boulevard and Avenue of the Stars, which would require tunneling under BHHS , or one at Santa Monica Boulevard and Avenue of the Stars, the location that scientists are advising Metro not to use due to the presence of the Santa Monica Fault. Mayor Barry Brucker and Vice Mayor William Brien proposed a third option—for Metro to build a Century City stop at Santa Monica Boulevard and Century Park East—with the added incentive that Beverly Hills could be the location for two park-and-ride facilities to get commuters to and from the station. Experts hired by Metro, however, have reported that the Century Park East site is within the West Beverly Hills Lineament fault zone, an extension of the Newport-Inglewood Fault. In an email released by Metro, experts reportedly told the Metro Board of Directors Planning Committee that tunneling under BHHS as part of the Constellation Boulevard route "would not compromise the structural integrity of existing structures, interfere with future building plans or create perceptible noise or vibrations on school grounds." To read the report in its entirety, click here . "Metro's seismic findings are, of course, a disappointment to me, the City Council and the entire community," Brucker said in a statement. The city has hired two engineering firms, Exponent Inc. and Shannon & Wilson, to conduct separate, independent analyses of Metro's seismic findings. "The independent analysis by our consultants is an important step toward determining the appropriate response for Beverly Hills as we move forward," Brucker said. "The citizens of Beverly Hills deserve a fair and impartial independent analysis." The council has formally requested a 90-day delay between when the final Environmental Impact Statement/Report is released and when Metro meets to consider the tunnel route between Beverly Hills and Century City. "We need at least 90 days to properly evaluate the scientific and seismic data before any final decision is made," Brucker said. The seismic and safety reports released Wednesday will be used by Metro staff to develop a recommendation on the Westside Subway Extension's EIS/EIR, which is scheduled to be released this winter. The final decision on the subway's route is made by the Metro Board of Directors and expected in early 2012. Beverly Hills Unified School District Board of Education President Lisa Korbatov released a statement in response to Metro's report. "Metro has opened a veritable Pandora's box that potentially impacts many dozens of existing buildings and future projects in the region, including Beverly Hills High School, future station locations for the Westside Subway Extension as well as currently entitled development projects," she wrote. "Our independent experts will immediately begin evaluating the findings and will weigh in as this process moves forward." Should the Constellation Boulevard route receive approval, two tunnels would be built 55-70 feet below the BHHS campus. The tunnels would pass under the administration building and then go beneath the high school's tennis courts, the southern wing of Building B and the lacrosse fields.

SAN ANTONIO — Get ready for a Man of Steel with some serious artistic pedigree. Legendary Marvel comic book artist John Romita Jr. has flown over to the Distinguished Competition to draw Superman. JRJR will partner with DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns, who'll write the adventure. The duo take over the monthly "Superman" book this summer.
(UPDATE: Check out the JRJR Superman art below to whet your super-appetite.)
It's quite the bombshell to herald the return of the DC All Access Web series (above), which also features "The Joker's Daughter" writer Marguerite Bennett and artist Meghan Hetrick and fun with the "Justice League: War" animated feature, plus… what, are you kidding me?! Romita Jr.?! At DC?! Madness!
JRJR has been synonymous with Marvel for more than 30 years, with his proud papa John Romita Sr.'s art for Marvel going back even further. A stalwart workhorse with a Jack Kirby-like aesthetic, JRJR's work at Marvel really rose in popularity in the 1980s with runs on "Amazing Spider-Man" and "Uncanny X-Men," though his art has shined on in the decades since. The New York City native is also the co-creator of "Kick-Ass" with writer Mark Millar, which hit the big screen with two films.
JRJR has played with DC before, though with Marvel also in the picture. He penciled the 1994 crossover "Punisher/Batman: Deadly Knights," which was an inter-company affair. He also drew Superman before for the cover to "DC/Marvel Crossover Classics" No. 2.
For two storied competitors like Marvel and DC, this is almost the comic book equivalent of Magic Johnson taking his talents to New England. It's a big deal.

PIXAR Films Minimalist Poster Art
I have yet to meet a person that doesn't like the majority of Pixar's films. Sure, there's some we like more than others, in my opinion Cars 2 is by far the worst movie they've made to date. Other than that, the studio has created a great collection of timeless characters.
Artist Wonchan Lee has created a series of minimalist posters as a tribute to Pixar, and each poster captures the soul of the characters they created. The artist had this to say in a statement,
Turning the most realistic 3D animation into the simplest vector graphic... Everybody loves Pixar, which means you wouldn't want to do anything to let them down. Because it has really broad demographics, in terms of age bracket and cultural background, it was very challenging to come up with something that pleases such a wide audience whilst satisfying myself as an artist and as a fan of Pixar, too.
He's done a great job with these posters. Check them out, and tell us what your favorite Pixar film is.

Virginia's Lieutenant Governor Bill Bolling has said he will announce on March 14 whether to run as an independent candidate for Governor of Virginia this year. Meanwhile, the Independent Green Party is already circulating an independent petition with Bolling's name on it, so that if he does run, he will have the advantage of the signatures collected by the party. Here is the party's web page for the "Draft" effort, including a link to a petition form.
Independent Green Party Launches Petition to Place Virginia's Lieutenant Governor on Ballot as Independent Candidate — No Comments
Nice job to the IGP thinking ahead like that! No harm done if he doesn't run as an indy, but everything gained if he does!
Wouldn't this petition mean that he'd have to run under the Independent Green Party's label? If so, what if he does not want to run under the Independent Green Party's label?
#2, no, in Virginia, the petition doesn't mention the ballot label. After the petition is turned in, if it is valid, an unqualified party recognized by the state as having filed a list of its officers is free to send in a document saying the petitioning candidate is that group's nominee. If the candidate goes along with it, then the group's name gets on the ballot. Of course in this case Lt. Gov. will just want "independent" as a label and the Indp Green Party knows that but they still want to help him.
As a member of the Independent Green Party of Virginia I assure you we want Bolling to run as Independent Green Party candidate. Although we have been collecting signatures since January…if he doesn't run as Independent Green Party candidate…less signatures will be collected.
Denny McKell is Independent Green Party spokesman
Actually an Independent Green Party committee has formed a PAC, launched a website, and released multiple videos.

The Indy Green Party want Bolling to run as an Independent Green Party candidate…
More Trains, Less Traffic – Denny McKell Independent Green Party
Subject: Independent Green Party state Vice Chair and other Independent Green Party leaders launch Draft Bill Bolling for Governor as Independent Green Party candidate committee, and web site.

Gail for Rail Parker, Independent Green Party of Virginia state Vice Chair and Committee Director.
703-960-5602, or 571-282-8381.
Independent Green Party leaders are very serious about Bill Bolling as their Independent Green Party candidate for Governor. Led by the Indy Green Party state Vice Chair, Gail for Rail Parker, and Denny McKell, (Gail for Rail and McKell are both U.S. Air Force retirees) Indy Greens formed a political action committee (PAC). Now the Independent Green Party team has a Draft Bill Bolling web site. http://www.draftbill.org/
The Independent Green Party group is also sending out a series of video press releases urging Bill Bolling to run for Governor as Independent Green Party candidate. The Independent Green Party's Denny McKell is a retired TV and radio producer, and newsman. McKell produced the video press releases for his Independent Green Party.
"We need 'More Trains, Less Traffic!" says Gail for Rail Parker, the retired U.S. Air Force officer.
"An alliance with the Independent Green Party of Virginia and Bill Bolling as our Indy Green candidate for Governor can provide positive pro-business, and pro-rail policy to grow the economy and create sustainable rail, solar, wind, and geothermal energy jobs." Gail for Rail Parker has been on the ballot as an Indy Green Party rail advocate for each of the last 8 years. Twice Gail for Rail has been on the ballot statewide. The Independent Greens are Virginia's most successful on ballot third party in Virginia in a century.
The Independent Green Party is recruiting candidates for House of Delegates across Virginia. Indy Greens hope to run a full slate of 100 House of Delegates candidates this year.

Indy Greens want Bill Bolling.
Bolling and More Trains, Less Traffic.
An alliance between Bill Bolling and the Independent Greens makes sense. The Indy Green Party has a proven record of collecting thousands of petition signatures across Virginia every year. Bolling will need 10,000 valid signatures to get on the ballot. That means Indy Greens would need to collect 20,000 signatures for Bolling. Some Independent Greens started collecting signatures in January.

I got the link to this from the Skepchick website. Don't know if anyone else here has posted it: http://wonkette.com/491587/indiana-wingnut-will-require-teachers-to...

When will they have time to do any teaching if they have to stop every five minutes to provide proof for every sentence they utter?
How about a law requiring that all 'supernatural events' expounded upon in a house of worship be required to be empirically tested for the truth?
The idea is not to pay (any amount) for truth.
The idea is to stifle truth.One could take the putative student and ask from where his question arises. Then turn around and ask the same question: why do you believe it is true?
Terrific. As a response, I would create a course aimed specifically at the process and theory of evolution, designed to tackle the subject with the requisite level of detail. The problem with such a course is that it would without a doubt have to deal with the subject material at the college level, probably requiring field trips to repositories where fossils and other evidence are stored. In addition, radiometric dating techniques and their bases in physics would also have to be part of the curriculum and include the attendant calculus and chemistry skills which derive the salient data.
The students would no doubt get a most thorough education. Also a costly one. My question to the Indiana wing-nut politician mentioned above is this: are you willing to PAY for your proof?

More adults are saving for an emergency, but most don't use a budget as their financial roadmap
The economy is in recovery, with unemployment the lowest it's been in years, But while broad inflation is not a major concern, the cost of housing — which takes a large share of many families' budgets — is increasing at a rate much faster than wages, especially for those at the lower income levels. That is making it difficult for many adults build emergency savings, and is all the more reason for people to develop a budget, monitor and adjust it as needed over the long run to help ensure financial stability.
It is critical for all adults — renters and homeowners — to have a sound budget and financial plan that includes a strategy for building an appropriate "nest egg" that could tide them over for at least three months if necessary, and that acts as a foundation for the future.
NeighborWorks America is committed to helping Americans achieve this goal by training nonprofit professionals to offer services in their communities that build "financial capability." Helping individuals and families establish and sustain an emergency savings account is just one component of financial capability programming, which includes both group education classes and one-on-one coaching.
The telephone survey was conducted of a nationally representative sample of 1,000 U.S. adults. The survey has a total cumulative sampling error of +/- 3.1% at the 95% confidence level. Conducted by Finn Partners, March 2017.

I'm not sure how to populate this space with anything remotely hopeful. The Leafs are the worst team in the league at the moment, seem to have been totally figured out by the opposition, have lost confidence in their abilities and on top of that are doing themselves in with mind numbing mistakes most nights. They go into the Chicago Madhouse tonight, where the Blackhawks have posted a 21-7-4 record, in a back to back situation which has not favoured them this season.
All we can hope is that the Leafs don't get the Blackhawks' best (they won't have Toews tonight) and do get a little luck and a stop every now and then. The luck won't ever come though if this team doesn't dig deep and show some pride. Joffrey Lupul has been throwing the body more, Phil Kessel has been digging deep in the way he knows how, and Mike Brown has been hitting everything that moves, but largely this team is hanging its head and looking around for answers.
But hey, with the playoff outlook looking bleak and a lottery pick nearing, maybe the Leafs are back where they're comfortable and will surprise us all with a win tonight.

Lucas Matthysse returns to action on September 6 against hard-punching Mexican, Roberto Ortíz in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Argentine last fought in April against John Molina in a thrilling bout in which he emerged victorious via stoppage in round 11. After the bout Matthysse returned to his homeland where he was able to have a good rest with his family before resuming training for his upcoming encounter. BoxingScene was able to talk briefly with Lucas via telephone following a training session during which he revealed that he will be sparring Luis Carlos Abregú as preparations wind down before he travels to the United States.
BoxingScene.com: How much do you know about Roberto Ortíz?
We've some seen some videos of him on the internet. You can see that he's a boxer who punches hard but so do I and I'm preparing well for this new fight. Every fight is a challenge, he hasn't fought much away from home, I have more experience than him and I'm giving 100% in training to arrive in good shape.
BoxingScene.com: Did you want a bigger fight than this? Possibly a rematch against Danny García?
I respect all my opponents but I think I deserved to have a different rival or be on a bigger show. I've just had some hard fights, I lost to Danny García but I think I deserve a big fight. I just train and fight whoever they put in front of me, but yes, I would like a slightly bigger challenge to see where I am at.
BoxingScene.com: What are your thoughts on John Molina looking back at that fight?
He was a very tough rival, we knew we'd have a tough fight, he was strong. I had to come back after the loss to García and I did well. It was important to win to keep having big fights in America. It was a good fight.
I think I was winning, he caught me and I went down but apart from the knockdowns I was doing well. I knew I had to comeback quick because even though I was winning the rounds, the fact that I suffered two knockdowns would make things difficult on the scorecards.
BoxingScene.com: Was he the hardest puncher you have ever faced?
The boxer who hit me the hardest in my career was Humberto Soto, he was the only one whose punches I really felt. Molina caught me and I went down but I didn't feel his punches too much. Soto punched very hard though.
BoxingScene.com: How do you view the current progress of Danny García?
He just fought with a fighter who is a fourth or fifth level type boxer. He should give [Mauricio] Herrera or me a rematch but it seems like he will now fight Lamont Peterson, so I don't know what will happen next. He doesn't seem to want a rematch with me.
I want an important fight, I think I deserve it, maybe a rematch with Peterson if he wins, but we'll see.

You hear coaches talk about it enough to make it one of the most cliché of all clichés, but it's also very true.
Everybody in college football is going to falter at some point. It won't always be perfect. Who you are as a player is defined by how you react to those low points.
Texas quarterback David Ash hit his lowest point just over two weeks ago when he got the hook from Texas' coaching staff in favor of backup Case McCoy. McCoy rallied the Longhorns to a dramatic game-winning drive on the road against Kansas, and all of a sudden, Ash's job looked like it might be in jeopardy.
It was his second game in three starts that resulted in fewer than 120 passing yards, a completion rate of 50 percent or below and no touchdown passes with a pair of interceptions.
The Longhorns' staff had faith in Ash, though, and let him keep his starting gig. On Saturday, he rewarded that faith, bouncing back with one of his best games of the season and taking home our Big 12 Player of the Week honor. It began with a 47-yard bomb on a trick play out of the wishbone as a tribute to Darrell Royal and Ash went on to complete his next 10 passes to start the game 11-of-11.
He finished 25-of-31 for 364 yards and two touchdowns, completing his second consecutive game without an interception. It was his third game this season with a quarterback rating of 200 or higher, and the Longhorns put together a complete performance behind Ash's efforts in a 33-7 win over Iowa State.
Not everybody can keep it going after having their confidence shaken. It's clear now that Ash can, and the Longhorns are looking good with their sophomore quarterback leading the way.

Six Ways to Get to The Top and Stay There: What You Need Now!
At the peak … ahead of the game … king of the hill! That's what you want to be. You want to have a career at the top of the world and stay there. Here's your game plan.
Talent, hard work, consistency, ability and determination are all winning qualities, but guess what? They are just the price of admission. They are not how you make it to the top.
Being The Best
Whether you are a producer, planner, manager or executive, it is really hard to get to the top in your industry. Staying there is even more challenging. It's more about who you are than what you can do. This isn't going to be one of those career-counseling articles about finding yourself. We are talking about being yourself.
"You can't just do a good job. You have to make such a powerful impression that they remember you and want to see you again."
A Wise Man
When we talked about "The Six Smooth Moves That Make You Look Smart," we discovered that successful, "smart" people do four things very well.
They provide consistent value. They know what they're doing.
They do it well. They make themselves useful and invaluable.
They deliver results and not execution. They know that quality is what matters.
They are distinctive. They are known for the quality of their thinking.
Put all those things together and they create a powerful impression that people remember. It's who you are and not just what you do.
Six Ways To Get to The Top and Stay There
Here are the things the people at the top know that you need to know. It starts with the most important thing of all.
#1. Don't play the game too long.
As Bob Seger says, the trick is never play the game too long. Let's say you produce exceptional events or create hyper-effective marketing. Get out while you are ahead. I don't mean leave the business, but capitalize on what you've done, your contacts and reputation, and then use them as soon as you can as a springboard to the next chapter of your career. Personally, I don't plan on being the oldest living creative director and content expert.
#2. Decide who you are and who you are going to be.
Remember the goal is to make such a powerful impression that people remember you and want to see you again. So be known for something. Imagine your life is a movie. That means you have to have an identifiable character. Who are you going to be? Decide how you'd like to be viewed by your colleagues and then stick to it.
#3. Focus on what you do best – and then change it.
The more specialized your talent or focus, the quicker it becomes obsolete. So be the best at what you do, for now. Then see where things are going and be there when everyone else arrives. Anticipate your company's or client's needs over the next year and be willing to get a little uncomfortable and learn something new. Be the one who finds and offers new value.
4. Be the guy who knows a guy.
Make contacts. I don't mean collecting people on LinkedIn or Facebook. Take time to meet and know people and have real relationships. That way you know whom to ask or where to refer clients who are seeking a service you don't offer. I tell clients, "If I can't do what you need, I'll help you find someone who can." That goes a long way.
5. Be willing to lead.
You can't be at the front of the pack by following. But remember, there's a difference between being in charge and leading. You can be a planner, coordinator, do graphics, PowerPoint… anything … and still be a leader. Lead through your attitude, character and personality.
6. Accept the reality that not everyone has to like you.
My friend Mark Miller explains this very well on his blog –"Great Leaders Serve." "Don't be surprised if there are always some people who are unhappy with you. And if no one's unhappy with you as a leader, perhaps you should be unhappy with yourself."
Don't spend too much time worrying about being loved for every effort you make. Everyone should share a common responsibility for generating the best possible results. You are working together. Clients will respect you and value what you provide. As long as you are not an impossible, temperamental jerk, that should be enough. Their satisfaction with you comes from your value. Actually, the people who may not love you are ones who see you stretching and can't keep up.
Live Up to Your Potential
It doesn't matter if you've been in the business two months or 20 years – you have never been better prepared and experienced than you are today. That means you are at the peak of your potential.
One of my favorite "Peanuts" cartoons shows Charlie Brown standing on the pitcher's mound while the team is waiting on him to throw a strikeout and win the game. Charlie Brown looks straight at you and says, "The greatest burden in life is to have a great potential."
• Live up to your potential by knowing how and when to deliver top performance. There should be a strategy for everything. Plan, determine how and when to deliver, and then manage yourself to get it done.
• If you have a choice between being easy to work with or easy to love … be easy to work with.
• Never lose sight of the end results. Focus on how success will be measured and the people who can make it happen. And be willing to let go and change so your contributions are always growing.
To have a career at the top of the world and stay there, keep asking yourself this question, "Who is the best producer, planner, marketer or executive you know?"
Make sure the answer is, "You."

Rating: NR

Subtitles: N/A
DVD Release: Synapse Films
Region Coding: Region 0 NTSC
Retail Price: $19.95
This film is based on author Edward Lee's story Header. Edward Lee even appears in the film as a state trooper. Header is an unflinching tale about two psychopaths who get their kicks and exact their revenge the backwoods way. The locales in this film don't take kindly to the law and when they have a score to settle they use the "Header" on their enemies. What is a "Header", let's just say that it is something that you are not soon to erase from your mind after you have seen it. To go into any more detail about what exactly a "Header" is would lessen the impact of this sadistic torture / revenge device.
Visually the film quickly falls under the weight of its minuscule budget. Performance wise all of the cast are so out there with their performances it is hard to believe them in their roles. The most delirious performance in the film comes from Dick Mullaney who portrays a recently released convicts' Grandpap. The one aspect about this film that is hardest to get a gauge on is its dialog which borders on comedic despite trying to be vulgar. Another area where this film comes up short is the special effects which are crudely executed. After you learn what a "Header" is there is very little in the way of surprises as the film crawls along to predictable conclusion.
The DVD:
Synapse Films Header in an anamorphic widescreen that preserves the film's original aspect ratio. This transfer has been flagged for progressive playback. Colors look subdued, details range from crisp to soft / hazy and there is some mild edge enhancement.
This release comes with one audio option a Dolby Digital stereo mix in English. The audio sounds clear and balanced, with the music and effects in the film far best in this audio mix. Some viewers may have trouble following the dialog because of the heavy accents in the film.
Extras for this release include two trailers for the film and six interview segments, director Archibald Flancranstin (5 minutes 55 seconds), author Edward Lee (9 minutes 43 seconds), author Jack Ketchum (11 minutes 38 seconds), actor Jake Suffian (7 minutes 50 seconds), producer Michael Anthony (9 minutes 4 seconds) and special effects Alex Marthaller, David Plunkett, Brian Ray, Ryan Carroll (11 minutes 1 second). While the interviews are a welcome addition they are pretty much your standard behind the scenes stories. Overall Header gets a well rounded DVD from Synapse Films.


text: Greetings Everyone, I was indulging in a bit of googling of my name and ran across this blog post from months back: http://morepypy.blogspot.com/2007/11/sprint-discussions-releases-testing.html """ As you can see, we are lacking in the Windows testing area, which is an even worse problem because none of the currently active developers has Windows as his primary OS. We should improve this by finding a Windows machine where the tests are run nightly and where we can log in to try bug-fixes quickly. The latter bit is important, we had a nightly windows test run before (thanks to Scott Dial) but it didn't help, because even if you tried to fix a bug you would have to wait until the next night to see whether it worked. """ Oddly enough, I came to this conclusion as well, but at the time I withdrew my box because some serious problems developed with PyPy on Win32 that made it impractical to continue to run the test suite. Early this February I took some time to try and run the test suite again (same problems exist as they did almost a year ago). However, this time, I set it up on a VMWare instance on a Linux server. If someone would be interested in having access to that VMWare instance, then I would be willing to provide the login information. Alternatively, I might be able to invest some time in solving the bugs, but I'm not sure. In the past, I got the impression that the development team was indifferent to Win32 support and was not interested in being an advocate. -Scott -- Scott Dial scott at scottdial.com scodial at cs.indiana.edu

Animal Stickers from Domestic
We've blogged about Domestic's stickers before, and stickers themselves have become a target of hostility at AT, where they have shown their faces once too often. But if your child is not yet a design-fatigued cynic, he or she may get a kick out of these animal stickers from designer Adrien Gardère for Domestic that dress up a (European-style) electrical plug and add a little bit of barnyard humor to a room.

Mary Wilma Waller, a longtime area resident, died Tuesday evening, Jan. 21, 2014, at the Northeast Montana Health Center in Poplar, where she had been a resident for the last nine months.
She was born in Great Falls March 15, 1919, to Frank and Lillian Murray of Homestead. She attended school during her early years in her grandparents' yard, then country school, and eventually graduated from Froid High School.
She married Halles Waller Dec. 21, 1938, and they moved to a small house on Smoke Creek where they began their married life. They then moved that house to the present location, west of Froid, where they engaged in farming and raised their four children, Sharon, James, Donna and Thomas.
She was noted for her sewing abilities, sewing and altering for friends and family, quilting and crocheting to the benefit of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She always had some sewing project by her chair. She also enjoyed doing crossword puzzles.
She was preceded in death by daughter, Donna; one grandson; one great- grandson; and husband, Halles.
She is survived by her children, Sharon Harmon of Ellendale, N.D., James Waller of Missoula and Thomas Waller of Froid; 11 grandchildren; 13 great- grandchildren; nine great- great-grandchildren; and one sister, Margaret Tompt of Plentywood.
Funeral services were held Monday, Jan. 27, at the Froid Lutheran Church. Interment was at the Homestead Cemetery in Homestead.

Someone asked me recently:
Can you comment on what an apostille is?
This is asked often enough that it is worth making a post out of it. It can be made to seem quite mysterious and complicated, but…
Long story made short. Your potential employer expects that you will not be sending them the original of the documents requested. Therefor you need to have a copy made.
A notary (if you are in the USA/Canada – similar if elsewhere) – needs to make the copy for you and notarize the copy as being a true copy (not an altered or false one). You then must send the copy – with the notary signature on it – to the Secretary of State in the jurisdiction (state/province) in which that notary is registered.
The SoS then verifies that the notary's signature is real.
It's a mess, but so many teachers have falsified and altered documents that schools/employers (and sometimes countries) now have to do this. Sadly, all you ever hear about is all the bad schools – you never hear about the bad teachers . . .
I apologize for the the political commentary – but it is so. Zillions of pages on the internet about school scams – but in fact many times (probably more often) the scam is the teacher. But just about zero pages on the internet about that. So – don't believe everything you read on the internet.
You can also Google – apostille – for a lengthier and possible better and certainly much more complicated though probably more accurate description of apostille. But that is the basics.
TED's Tips™ #1: Not everywhere or everyone asks for an apostille, nor will they always ask for it for every document. It is not usually worth getting it done "just in case" as it can be expensive in some states/provinces.
TED's Tips™ #2: Unfortunately though, the process can often take a fair amount of time. In that case send a regular copy or a copy of the notarized copy pending sending the copy with the apostille on it.

Climate Check July 28

"Price advertises the opportunity. Time regulates the opportunity. Volume measures the success or failure of that advertised opportunity." James Dalton
Clearly this market is pushing the limit of its long uptrend, not to mention the patience of those seeking a trend to exploit for more than a day. It's as though Wall St. is carrying on a parallel poker game to Washington…hanging around long enough to see how the game develops but in the end expecting the other players to blink first. Yesterday the bulls showed their cards, and didn't have much of a hand. It feels as though I've been trained to disbelieve any breaks in the last few months, but an objective look at the lunchtime evidence shows real deterioration that needs rescuing ASAP.
While most breadth measures are about as weak as one would expect, the real problem is the impact of Wednesday's selling thrust. It came from a period of messy churn, and if not offset within a day or two means the buyers don't have the goods to compete with the sellers. Today's action is about the worst thing possible, an up all morning affair while the underlying trend measure falls. I'm still completing a thorough backtest of that combo, but it strikes the trader in me as a quantifiable sort of "dead cat bounce" in the spirit of Dalton's quote above. We had a couple days in September 2010 when my measure of trend rose even when the market paused for a down day, and it was indicative of an explosive rally underway…this feels the same in a bearish way.
My stats are not meant to predict, but to act as a way to yell "climate change" at me. I have no way of exploiting every market move, but want to make sure I catch the ones that match my personality. More importantly, they make things a little more black and white when it comes to taking profits and losses. Wednesday stopped me out of remaining longs I probably shouldn't have had anyway; there is absolutely no rush for me to tackle the long side with deteriorating evidence. Good reports like $CROX & $GMCR are still being bought, but they are becoming rarer amidst the carnage in $JNPR & $AKAM but more importantly $CAT & $MMM. So the bull case is a deal in DC…lord help us!

3 Yummy Strawberry Recipes
By SYLVIA KLINGER
As we celebrate the peak of California strawberry season, here are three of my favorite recipes that feature strawberries.
There are plenty of reasons to add strawberries to your diet. For example, did you know that one cup of strawberries provides more vitamin C than an orange? What's more, strawberries can help lower cholesterol and they are naturally low in sugar.
Quinoa, Black Bean and Strawberry Salad
Calories per serving: 262
Carbs: 45.95g
Fat: 4.89g
Protein: 9.76g
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Salad Ingredients:
* 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
* 1 small onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
* 2 garlic cloves, chopped
* 3/4 cup quinoa, uncooked
* 1 (14.5 ounce) can fat free chicken or vegetable broth (1-1/2 cups)
* 1 teaspoon ground cumin
* 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* Salt and pepper to taste
* 1 (8.75 ounce) can or 1 cup frozen corn kernels

Strawberry Dressing Ingredients:
* 1/2 cup California strawberries, quartered
* 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
* 1/4 cup olive oil
* 1 tablespoon honey
* Salt and pepper to taste, optional
1. In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic, and cook until lightly browned.
2. Add quinoa, broth and seasonings. Bring mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until water is absorbed.
3. Stir in corn and black beans and let cool or store overnight in refrigerator.
4. In the meantime, mix all strawberry dressing ingredients in a blender. Blend for 30 seconds or until all the ingredients are well blended. Set aside in a small pitcher.
5. When ready to serve: Fold in California strawberries and cilantro. Serve cold over a bed of baby spinach, and drizzle strawberry dressing over plated quinoa salad.

Mini Creamy Strawberry Empanadas
Calories per serving: 118
Carbs: 14.68g
Fat: 6.11g
Protein: 2.23g
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Bake time: 20 minutes
Yield: 10 empanadas
* 1/2 to 1 cup fat free or low fat milk
* 1 teaspoon orange zest
* 1/4 stick cinnamon
* 1 large egg yolk
* 2 tablespoons sugar
* 1 3/4 tablespoons cornstarch
* 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 cup California strawberries, diced
* 1 package frozen empanada disks (thawed) or 2 refrigerated pie crusts
* 1 egg white – mixed egg white with 1 teaspoon water
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a medium saucepan, bring milk, orange zest and cinnamon stick to a slow simmer over medium heat, watching the milk carefully so it doesn't scorch or boil over. Simmer for 10 minutes; remove cinnamon stick and zest and reduce the heat down to low.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the egg yolk, sugar, cornstarch and vanilla in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of hot milk into the egg mixture, stirring constantly. Repeat with another tablespoon milk. Add the egg mixture to the milk and whisk over low heat constantly until the mixture begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. It should be the consistency of creamy pudding. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature for 30 minutes before using. Once cool add the strawberries.
Roll each crust unto a flat surface.
4. Fill each circle with about 1 tablespoon of cooled filling. Carefully fold the dough in half, taking care to keep the filling inside the pocket. Press the edges shut and then seal using the tines of a fork. Brush with egg white mixture.
5. On a medium size cookie sheet, place the sealed empanadas and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
6. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Annea Lockwood was born nearly 9,000 miles away in New Zealand, but she is on more intimate terms with the Hudson River than most of us who have lived near its banks for our entire lives.
During 1980 and 1981, composer and sound artist Lockwood explored the length of the Hudson, stopping at 15 different sites along the river to collect tape-recorded sound samples of the water. Commissioned by the Hudson River Museum in Yonkers, she wove the recordings together into a captivating two-hour audio installation, "A Sound Map of the Hudson River," which became part of the museum's permanent "Riverama" exhibit in 2003.
A condensed, 72-minute version of the installation has also been issued on compact disc by the adventurous, NYC-based new-music label, Lovely Music, Ltd.

kalyway 10.5.1 updated to 10.5.2
after first reboot my trackpad became over-sensible. than i pressed "Fix errors", made one more reboot as it was told, and lost my tackpad... deamon started, but no any reaction. can't even click with trackpad buttons. I rolled back to backuped kext. ffscroll doesn't work with it (mean the original kext).
and now I'm trying to understand: should I forget about 2finger scrolling, or not all chances are lost?
I am having the same problem on my Vostro 1400. I am curious what is up. The mouse also will "freak out" and register right/left clicks while scrolling in the up/left direction. Same issues with buttons as you. help!
I've got a problem with my vostro 1700 too.
Of course, I haven't done any backup of my appleps2controller.kext and now, my mouse just moves to the left and up angle, I can do any other move!
Could you explain me what's wrong? I've tried to reinstall the drivers and follow the tuto but it doesn't work
Please, help
I ran into identical issues on my Lenovo T60p. Once I did get my trackpad working with the driver I could move it around for about 2-3 seconds, then the mouse cursor would freeze. I tried hooking up an external keyboard/mouse after this happened to restart the daemon, but no luck. The trackpad still wouldn't work. This happened after every successive restart.
I'm just using the sidebar in windows or just using Spacebar/Shift-spacebar...it sucks, but it'll have to do. I try to keep an external mouse handy for when I'm on the laptop at work, etc.

I'm a bit behind blogging about this, but I thought it was pretty interesting: evidence of a 5,000 year old brewery was recently uncovered in China. What seems to be significant about this find is that barley had not been known to be in China this early; researchers suggest the possibility of barley arriving with the knowledge of its use in brewing, which could have interesting implications.
Archaeologists uncovered ancient "beer-making tool kits" in underground rooms built between 3400 and 2900 B.C. Discovered at a dig site in the Central Plain of China, the kits included funnels, pots and specialized jugs. The shapes of the objects suggest they could be used for brewing, filtration and storage.
It's the oldest beer-making facility ever discovered in China — and the evidence indicates that these early brewers were already using specialized tools and advanced beer-making techniques.
The research group inspected the pots and jugs and found ancient grains that had lingered inside. The grains showed evidence that they had been damaged by malting and mashing, two key steps in beer-making. Residue from inside the uncovered pots and funnels was tested with ion chromatography to find out what the ancient beer was made of. The 5,000-year-old beer "recipe" was published on Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The recipe included a mix of fermented grains: broomcorn millet, barley and Job's tears, a chewy Asian grain also known as Chinese pearl barley. The recipe also called for tubers, the starchy and sugary parts of plants, which were added to sweeten and flavor the beer, the researchers write.
Unfortunately I can't see the full article (I was hoping to see if they had any additional recipe details, such as a rough idea of ingredient proportions). It might be interesting to try to recreate it (of course everyone expects Dogfish Head to do so, I'm sure); also knowing what kind of "tubers" you'd find in China circa 3000 BC would be helpful.
Speaking of Dogfish Head—any bets on when they will attempt a recreation? Or will another brewery beat them to it?

Now, I'm not one to clutch my pearls at much, but this was ridiculous: The E! network had bitches up in arms last night when during their coverage of The Golden Globes' red carpet they had some tastless pop-ups appear on screen which announced the year Michael J. Fox was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease as a FUN FACT!
The amount of fun, however, did not transcend the Twitter-verse, as people lashed-out in disgust as more graphics appeared, shocked when a second came up regarding Robert Redford's struggle with Polio as a child!
The only explanation that comes to mind with this, is that the same hiring-agency responsible for the sign-language interpreter at Nelson Mandela's funeral hired the fool to do the FUN FACTS for The Golden Globes! It has truly been a year of low-key-televised-f*ckery at high profile events, and 2014 looks promising!
E! later issued an apology via the Hollywood Reporter, stating:

WASHINGTON — An American leader of al-Qaida based overseas could be killed without violating international or U.S. law because he was a senior member of a terrorist group who posed a continuous threat to the United States and whose capture wasn't feasible, according to a Justice Department memorandum that was declassified Monday.
The 2010 memo provided President Barack Obama with the legal footing to order a 2011 strike by a missile-firing CIA drone in Yemen that killed Anwar al-Awlaki, who was born in New Mexico, as part of the administration's top-secret "targeted killing" program.
Another American, Samir Khan, who once lived in Charlotte, N.C., was killed in the same strike.
For the most part, the memo reflected public statements made after al-Awlaki's death by Obama and his top aides that killing a U.S. citizen engaged in terrorism is authorized by a congressional resolution passed after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, and is allowed under international and U.S. law, assertions disputed by some experts and lawmakers. The administration's legal justifications also were laid out in a Justice Department white paper leaked to the media in February 2013.
"The U.S. citizen in question has gone overseas and become part of the forces of an enemy with which the United States is engaged in an armed conflict," said the memo, which alleged that al-Awlaki was constantly plotting anti-U.S. attacks. "The U.S. government does not know precisely when such attacks will occur; and a capture operation would be infeasible."
The document — parts of which were blacked out — was released as part of a U.S. appeals court ruling in favor of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, filed by the New York Times and the American Civil Liberties Union, that sought any Justice Department documents discussing the lawfulness of the targeted killing program.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan found that the government waived its right to keep the memo secret because of the statements made by Obama and some of his top aides publicly acknowledging the targeted killing program's existence and asserting its legality.
Human rights advocates and some lawmakers praised the administration's decision not to appeal the ruling as an improvement in transparency. But they complained that it didn't go far enough, saying that the release of the document still leaves significant questions about the administration's legal justification for the use of missile-firing drones and other means to kill alleged terrorists.
"There are many important questions that this memo does not address," said Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee who has pressed for greater disclosure. "It is my hope that making this memo public will generate new pressure for the executive branch to answer other pressing questions."
Among those questions are the administration's legal definition of an imminent and continuing terrorist threat, the criteria used in targeting decisions, and which high-level U.S. officials are qualified to designate a target, said Jameel Jaffer, the deputy legal director of the ACLU.
Nor does the memo discuss in depth how the president can order the killing of an American who hasn't been tried by a court, he said.
"It's a very broad claim of authority, the claim that the government can carry out targeted killings of American terrorism suspects without ever presenting evidence to a court before or after the fact," said Jaffer.
"The memo doesn't recognize geographical limitations to that power," he said.
The 16-page legal memo that justified al-Awlaki's killing was written by David Barron, who was then acting head of the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel. He recently was confirmed as a federal appeals court judge after the administration agreed it would release the memo.

Continued from page 1
In conducting a Google search, I was able to find just one short piece in the Washington Post's "National" section that was picked up from the AP. The story simply reported that Winter's hearing in Colorado was not to be delayed. No editorial...no serious coverage...just a few paragraphs on the timing of Winter's hearing.
There has been absolutely nothing on the subject that I could find in the New York Times while Huffington Post did run one piece telling Ms. Winter's story.
In response to this profound lack of attention, stories have been running on Foxnews.com, Buzzfeed and the Daily Caller highlighting the fact that had it been a New York Times reporter looking at jail time, the story would be huge.
As one considered to be a member of the liberal media, I have to say that I could not agree more with the conservative publications that are pointing out the hypocrisy.
There is simply no denying that were a Washington Post reporter or a New York Times reporter or a Huffington Post reporter facing jail in similar circumstances, this would, indeed, be a giant story taking up untold column inches in these publications.
Why do I think this?
Because when it has happened in the past to such a reporter, it was a huge story.
This sort of treatment of a Fox News reporter by the more liberal media outlets is not only shameful, it is self-defeating. Turning a blind eye to any reporter who has done their job in this manner serves only to reveal that the publications ignoring the story are only interested in protecting the rights of a journalist when that journalist works for a news organization that meets with their approval.
The fact that there are media organizations that may not respect Fox News—for whatever reason—simply does not make Ms. Winter's work any less important nor does it make Ms. Winter any less worthy of support. You may not like her employer but that does not make Jana Winter less of a reporter—as proven by the fact that she was the one who successfully broke the story that landed her in the soup.
Jana Winter is willing to go to jail not only to protect her source but to protect every reporter's right to protect their own sources. Ignoring her circumstances because of displeasure or disrespect for her employer is profoundly wrong and unworthy behavior on the part of any credible news outlet.
Shame on any news organization that has not covered Ms. Winter's predicament and shame on any organization that has failed to editorialize in support of her principled stand. None of you should be surprised if your lack of support for one of your own —and Jana Winter is one of your own—comes back to bite you in the nose sometime in the future when it is your reporter facing a few months in the pokey.

The following reports were taken from the Boston University Police Department crime logs from March 10 to March 15.
UNH investigation
On March 10 at 285 Babcock Street around 10 a.m., the University of New Hampshire Police Department contacted the BUPD for assistance in an ongoing investigation that originated at UNH concerning the UNH basketball coach.
Hypodermic needles
At 888 Commonwealth Ave. on March 10 at 9:30 a.m., staff at the Panera Bread restaurant notified police regarding the fact that they found two used hypodermic needles in the men's bathroom. The needles were taken into evidence by the BUPD.
At 3 Cummington Mall on March 11 at 9:48 a.m., a former employee, who was issued a trespass warning earlier when she was terminated from the university, was found visiting a friend in the building. The staff then contacted the BUPD, who stopped her and reissued her trespass warning subjecting her to arrest if she came on BU property.
At 660 Beacon St. on March 11 at 5:20 p.m., a suspect attempted to steal a BU class ring from the Barnes and Noble bookstore. He was stopped by a salesperson, who discovered that he was attempting to take the ring off of a sheet and replace it with his old ring. The salesperson took custody of the new ring, and the suspect fled the building.
Parking accident
At 925 Comm. Ave. on Friday at 10 a.m., an employee hit a pole while attempting to park in the Agganis Arena garage, causing damage only to her vehicle.
Bicycle stolen
At 750 Comm. Ave. on Friday at 5 p.m., a student's bicycle was reported stolen from the basement of 730 Comm. Ave. at some time between March 1 and March 14.
Motor Vehicle Accident
At Carlton Street on Saturday at 2:00 a.m., BUPD officers assisted in a motor vehicle accident between a BU shuttle bus and a taxi. There was substantial damage to the taxi and also to the bus, though there were no reported injuries. The investigation is still ongoing.
At 33 Harry Agganis Way on Saturday at 5:39 p.m., three students reported that sometime on March 12 unknown persons had entered their suite and stolen several items. There was no forced entry into the room, and the case is currently under investigation. The total value of the items stolen was estimated to be between $700 and $1000.

I love your stories
And this one in particular. What the hell Patrick? A cop? Is he running a sting? The thing is, hasn't he been
"in business" for quite a while? I remember him saying something about trying to find out more about Aileen for years, right? So that's too long for a simple sting operation. Still and all, if Gunnar is calling him, that can't be good. I think she's going to want to cut and run, but the question is, can she right now? She wants to be sure her brother's kids are okay, and she wants her brother committed, plus she wanted a certain amount of money before she started a new life. So I think she's going to feel trapped and unable to run right yet. Oh, I can't wait til the next update to see how she reacts.by Anonymous10/02/07
I have a question
Was something accidentally left out here?
"You may not come," he said again with a smile.
He was right. We fucked each other all day, but that wasn't right in my head. There were times when it was tender, making love, when there were no tricks, games, or family names, when we were just Patrick and Aileen. I liked those times too much.
What was he right about? And then she says "we fucked all day, but that wasn't right in my head." Does she mean she didn't feel right with just the fucking any more?
And right above, he is still dominating her, telling her she can't come. Then it just jumps into later in the day. Was there a paragraph or two that completed that earlier session?
I'm enjoying the story a lot.by Anonymous10/13/07by Anonymous06/16/11by Soul_child10/09/11

BOREAS TGB-03 DISSOLVED ORGANIC CARBON DATA FROM THE NSAEntry ID: BOREAS_TGB03DOC
Abstract: The BOREAS TGB-03 team collected Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) data during the summer of 1994 in the Northern Study Area. The purpose of this work was to establish the major sources, sinks and fluxes of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the Northern Study Area. Data on DOC concentrations taken from samples representing the major sources and sinks were to be combined with hydrologic measurements (e.g. precipitation, stream flow etc.) to calculate DOC fluxes.
