We built our home in 2010. We ran cable everywhere. Every room except the kitchen and the hallway. And I sometimes wish I did those two as well. And I wish I ran it to various locations in each room. All bedrooms have one, while the living room has two. It makes furniture arrangement limited in the bedrooms.Most everything is going wireless now days, even TV connections, so it isn't such a big deal anymore. I can tell you that when we bought our last house (before building this one) we did not even consider whether or not it had cable ran everywhere. If you want to do this, do it for your convenience, not for any resale. People are not going to make their decision on that.
It won't add any value to the property but it will play into the decision making process.
Major utilities and appliances like those you listed have always played a role in choosing a house for most people. Whether coax is run in the walls has not played a role for most people.Not a 100% statement. But you are in a significant minority as a buyer that would pass up a house you otherwise love just because of the lack of coax runs.
I've run a few hundred miles of coax in my day. Here's my opinion: Run it. Don't use cheap crap.This stuff is reasonably priced and of reasonable quality: »www.homedepot.com/p/Southwire-50···oScosH6kI'd recommend using a tri-shield or quad-shield cable.--If someone refers to herself / himself as a "guru", they probably aren't.
As a FiOS installer, I have been in houses that were newly redone without being pre-wired. I try to do the neatest job possible, but it is ALWAYS upsetting to the home owner when they see all the exposed cabling.-- My horse fights with me and fasts with me because if he is to carry me into battle, he must know my heart and I must know his or we shall never become brothers.-Plenty Coups, Chief of the Crow
As a FiOS installer, I have been in houses that were newly redone without being pre-wired. I try to do the neatest job possible, but it is ALWAYS upsetting to the home owner when they see all the exposed cabling.
If I was in your shoes -RUN IT - TWO runs of it in fact - to every wall in every room, all to central wiring closet (or at least a central location). As well as the same for CAT5E/CAT6. And make sure it's all labeled at your home run as well as the endpoints.Back in 2000, when I first got Dish, I went on an RG6 cable wiring spree - our kitchen and bedroom got 2 runs of RG6 from the central points in the family room and attic, even though I needed only 1 run at the time for signal distribution. It worked out REALLY nice for me when I got some new technology that required different coax run than my original - it meant a wiring job that could have required all day took only a couple hours to put the new system in place.I haven't done the same thing on the UTP - I've only run point to point where I needed it - Wifi has saved alot of effort on that score.I do differ from some of these other people by saying "RG6 coax is RG6 coax" - none of my installed cable was swept to anything, yet it has all worked well in DBS use to what ever Dish uses in what ever technology their using.I would invest in some decent tools and/or a system for putting on cable ends - it makes the job so much easier. I used to use crimp ons (with a big heavyduty die), but I've switched over to compression ends for my last couple projects. The tools you can find at Lowes/ Home Depot will work fine for the average homeowner.
I bought a $50, 500' spool of quad shielded RG6. It was only $15 more than the dual shielded stuff, and I figured that I'd rather spend a little more on the cable now then get stuck kicking myself later if it doesn't work out for whatever reason.Now I'm trying to figure out how many drops per room. I wasn't aware satellite systems needed two wires (I've never hooked one up before) and I was only planning on two drops in each room w/ one on opposite walls. But with this information maybe I should run two per wall?I'm putting way too much thought into something I may not ever use...
I wasn't aware satellite systems needed two wires (I've never hooked one up before)I'm putting way too much thought into something I may not ever use...
So then why do most people seem to recommend running two per tv location?
Satellite used to need one feed per tuner. So if you wanted to record one channel and watch another then you needed two coax. I haven't had satellite in a while so I'm not sure if that is still the case.
Dish can require two runs per box, depending on the setup; particularly for PVR's or multi-tuner boxes.
As long as you have 1 drop per room you'll be fine. In the future people can use splitters if they need more. You can do 2 drops a room but that's overkill IMHO. If they want satellite the installer can add another cable.
Run two per location in case you want like OTA tv plus either satellite or regular cable. Plus some people like having a separate outlet for a cable modem and another for their tv/dvr box.I definitely say run atleast 1 RG6 to each location, possibly even on on each side of the wall (so each room would have two runs of coax). Definitely run one RG6 to each wall of your main living area as others have said, it may limit your furniture arrangements. You don't want to be sitting under your TV. We don't really watch a lot of tv so we only had one run of coax and two cat6 per box, one utility box per room and two boxes on opposite sides of the wall in the main living area. I also put a wireless AP in the ceiling above the main living area as well with a dedicated cat5e line back to a home run area in our laundry room.Contrary to what others have said, this WILL affect future home buys. I don't see how it wouldn't. Everyone I know who has bought a house, this has come into play with. It costs several thousand dollars more to have it installed AFTER the walls are put in and they NEVER look as well done. Plus, you can't run drops to outside walls without tearing up the walls. I had my entire house wired up for $1,000 for coax and cat6 wire. It would have cost 4x that after the house was completed.
Now I'm trying to figure out how many drops per room. I wasn't aware satellite systems needed two wires (I've never hooked one up before) and I was only planning on two drops in each room w/ one on opposite walls. But with this information maybe I should run two per wall?
Ask anyone you want and as many of them as you want. I've bought 3 houses and coax has been a requirement in all 3 for me. My sister and parents the same. As a matter of fact even the service providers came into the picture. Last year when I bought this house FIOS was a requirement. The fact is coax DOES play a role in decision making for some people.
Discount it all you want but blanket statements will never win and you know it. At best you can say something like "For most people it won't play into the decision process". A 100% statement just gets you into trouble.
For your example those people don't know what to look for. The most common problem with people is they don't know what they want or what to look for. A Realtor will tell you whatever sells the house. Do they care if you have cable or internet once you buy the house? NO! Do they care if it costs you $300-500 to have the house wired? NO! This is a classic hindsight problem with buying property.
It's not something to demand but for many it could make a difference between two competing properties. The cost of materials is minor compared to the cost of labor to wire the house retroactively. Conduit is nice but both cost and labor are greater than coax. As far as future proofing, high quality coax can support a very large amount of bandwidth. For instance, you can't get a coax to ethernet converter to run cable over an ethernet line, but you can get an ethernet to coax convertor to run ethernet over coax.
So then why do most people seem to recommend running two per tv location?
Satellite used to need one feed per tuner. So if you wanted to record one channel and watch another then you needed two coax. I haven't had satellite in a while so I'm not sure if that is still the case.
»www.costcaptain.com/mm5/merchant···od2E4A2QReasonably priced to boot. Who would have thought it?
If your running cable, do it right. Run cat5 or cat6 along with triple shielded rg6. Run more than you need. It never hurts to put in a media panel.
Avoid splitters
If RG6-to-CAT6 adapters existed I'd just use those, but I haven't been able to find any so I'm assuming they don't.
Avoid splitters
And if you find a house you like and it is not wired, you can't demand it to be wired (at least, in my local realestate market). It's more lucrative to negotiate over the price and not over the wiring.
My current house (built in 1959)
The OP's house is from 1959 and it will have it. Mine is from 1960 and it has it. Are you talking about houses older then that?
Once upon a time coax was a luxury item but with everything online it's no longer in that category. There's where people are confused. I don't know anyone who doesn't have internet. Maybe it's different in Canada.
Just because you spend $100,000 on addition doesn't mean the new addition is worth $100,000. You might only see $50,000 return.

CHI Good Questions: How to Repair Chipped Veneer?
Allison sent us a good question: My boyfriend and I recently bought a great 1950's dresser in pretty good condition except for one small detail: there is a chip in the veneer on the lower left hand drawer. It's only about an inch square chip and not very noticeable, but I was wondering if anyone our there in apartmenttherapyland knew how to repair veneer besides the cheap and obvious wood stain pen? ...
Email questions and pics with QUESTIONS in subject line to:
...Also, is there somewhere I can buy some scrap veneer in Minneapolis? Thanks for your help!
Please add your DIY repair advice to the comments below for Allison...
12 Comments
I'm glad someone asked this! I also love vintage furniture, particularly those pieces with "waterfall" veneer and the like. I found many great shaped pieces, but I also wonder how one gets those "old style" veneers redone?
Not a problem. check here:
They offer a selection of veeners and are super cheap. You could totally replace that with some patience, and a steady hand. If that were mine, and it looks like a beauty by the way, I would strip the old finish off the whole thing, replace the missing veener, and apply a nice finish of linseed oil on it. It will look better than new.
It'll be nearly impossible to make it look like new, as matching the stain/color will prove difficult, but here are a couple ideas:
One way to go about fixing this would be to buy peel and stick veneer edging, or the kind with heat activated backing. Local hardware stores might have these, but here is an example online: Peel And Stick Veneer Edging Strips

These are thin enough to cut with scissors to the shape of your chip. You might need some wood filler to fill in the space between the new and old veneers.
If you go the heat activated route, you can simply use an iron. Heat until you see bubbles coming out of the sides (you know the glue is melted then) and then take away heat, apply even pressure (not with your fingers) and let set.
Another option would be to buy nice wood filler. Get the kind with actual saw dust in it (here's some from MinWax. Use a putty knife and a couple coats to build it up & sand with a block to make nice edges.
With either option, you can sand to reach the same thickness and then stain to match. Even if you don't match the color exactly, it'll be an improvement.
Depending on the age of the piece, a hot putty knife will easily separate the veneer from the substrate (if it is newer then you'll have MUCH harder time - natural animal glues are easy to undo). Then you'll need to replace the whole piece. Veneer is cheap, so you can experiment with stain combinations to get the right color.
Waterfall would be really hard to fix but since this peice has a rectangle shape on the end of the drawer you'd want to remove that whole peice and replace it whole.
if you have a rockler or other high-end woodwork store take the drawer in and try to match the veneer to the existing stain rather than trying to stain to match
Wood filler won't look good stained.
Congrats! this is a rare case of effed up veneer that CAN be fixed. good luck
Check out the menu at the top left of this page. It's full of great tutorials and know-how. Good luck with your project. Hope this helps.
I did my nightstands a few months ago. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. There's a guy on You Tube who has a video up (kindly looking man with big bushy beard) that shows you how to do it in a very calm & soothing manner.
I'd have to agree with ttbj's post...
Buy a roll of edge-banding with heat activated backing. You can get this at most decent hardware stores.I'd personally never go with peel-and-stick. Just doesn't seem to work as well.
Make sure to select the proper thickness and wood species. Edge-banding usually comes in sizes slighting wider than typical sheet material thicknesses to allow you to trim and clean-up properly once adhered to your piece.
To adhere, all you need is an iron and a small block. I use a wooden block with softened edges to press the heated edge-banding into place. Make sure to set the iron to a lower heat as you can burn the wood fairly quickly, and all you need to do is heat the glue. Play around with the right temperature setting.
Trim excess with a blade or cabinet scraper.
Break edges with a sanding block.
Apply a few coats of danish oil.
Wow, thanks you guys! That definitely helps. Because I am not usually that handy, I think I will try fitting a piece of veneer to the spot instead of refinishing the whole drawer-front with it. But I never knew I could buy a variety of whole sheets! I will keep all of this helpful advice in mind, thanks!
Home Depot and Lowe's sell the edge banding (I don't know how big yours) is.
That way you won't have to pay S&H on the items online if you don't need a big sheet of it.
Excellent post, Janel, and great comments! Thanks.
I had some sort of specialist sent out by my moving company after they DROPPED my piano, scraped the side badly, and broke the bridge in three pieces. The specialist guy spent several hours cutting pieces of veneer to match the scrapes, then faux painting it to match the finish exactly... I was pretty suspicious of the whole process as I watched it, but now even I can't tell where it was damaged.

There is no comparison between Osama and Geronimo.
Infact comparing him to Geronimo will make the world a very unsafe place because that will put him in the
league of those resisting foreign occupation which he was not.
Osama wanted to occupy lands and minds for militant Islam.
Geronimo was only defending his way of life.
The man you are describing as Geronimo the Native American hero, wasn't named Geronimo. Geronimo was the name given to him by the Mexicans for whom he was fighting. He fought against Mexico and the United States to protect his land from the encroachment. So instead of referring to your hero by the slang name that his enemies referred to him as that is generally synonymous with psycho couldn't you rather refer to him by his actual name which is Goyaałé?
Geronimo is famous for evading capture for almost 30 years. That includes an episode where he hid in a cave and escaped when surrounded. For these reasons, "Geronimo" is descriptive name for the quarry of the CIA's 13 year hunt. I agree that it doesn't do the original native American justice, but it actually recalls a part of his legend.
Political correctness and oversensitivity are the things that will keep us all divided, in the end. You think this was meant as an insult to a hero of your people? Maybe it should have been Operation John. What??? John the Baptist??? Osama is no John the Baptist!!
How about you take a moment to celebrate our victory rather than finding offense where none was meant.
I agree. I think there is a side of history that has been missing for a long time and its about time we are starting to see out of the eyes of native Americans. While I know that there are 2 side to every story and in the middle lies the truth the natives of this country have gotten a raw deal for a very long time I for one thinks that gerainimo and sitting bull should be treate as heros for there willingness to stand up to the invaders from eurpoe
If they would have called it operation MalcomX we would have never heard the end of it. Should have called it operation Hitler which would have been more appropriate. Haven't we done enough to Native Americans?
What's in a name. We have rid this plague Osama and that is important at the moment. The plan was to take out the terrorist and not to insult anyone. I am sure the Native Indians are above this. But politics and Donald Trump will not shutup.
Geronimo or Goyale' is still the same character. No matter if the the codename was referring to the mission or OBL, it's still an insult and disrepectful to all the Native American Veterans that have died for freedom, to protect, and fight for this country, to include those that gave (77 natives died and over 400 wounded) their all for OEF and OIF. It's Ironic that the Apaches guerilla warfare tactics taught the US military about unconventional warfare and eventually lead to development of the Army's 1st Special Forces from the Apache Scouts, including Navajo Scouts who were embedded in with the regular army during that time to find Geronimo should give thanks to Natives Americans contribution to SOF tactical unconventional warfare.
Geronimo was a great warrior and tactical genius. It is unfortunate that political correctness has diluted icons that inspired Indian pride lame mascots because some moron was "offended".
The use of American Indian symbols and names is something to be proud of because of the rich heritage. I don't see ANYONE using Indian examples of today. Why? The government has detroyed their resolve, indenpendence and ambition with government a$$i$tance.
As an American Indian, I am offended by the term "Native American". We might have been here first, but whether the decendants of Asians or Vikings, we came from somewhere. Don't water down my heritage for your political agenda!
Thank you Debbie for writing this story and sharing the views of Indigenous People. To hear that this search for the international terrorist Bin Laden was referred to by the USA as "OPERATION GERONIMO" is absolutely horrifying. Geronimowas and continues to be reverred by "Native Indian's" internationally for his courage in the face of thoes who slaughtered our ancestors: family, communities and home territories: the European colonizers – the United States. Geronimo's evasion of captivity was most certainly not equivalent nor was his role in society. I agree with Larry, Hitler would have been more suitable. I think the United States of American and President OBAMA owes the Native American people a public apology for this horrible insult.
Code names for enemies are developed with the intent of hiding the target's true identity in case it is discovered or leaked. Calling him "Hitler," therefore, is a terrible idea for this purpose.
I find myself more appalled by the absurdity of this blog entry that the usage of the term, Geronimo.
As Native Americans, we take pride in our heros, history and culture. Geronimo was born Goyaale', but was given the name Geronimo, his name in history is Geronimo, he was a warrior and a hero for our people. Walk in the shoes of a Native American, past, present and future, and you will understand why our people strongly object.
Good job. As a Native American I was happy for the long sought victory in the demise of OBL. Then I heard his code name "Geronimo" and it was like a slap in the face….in a long, long line of slaps in the face to Native people in our colonized homeland. A double slap is that most Americans don't "get" it and think we should just shut up or go away (being taken away, imprisoned, or exterminated isn't far down that line of thinking). I know many of my Native brothers and sisters are tired…no..exhausted from trying to get other to understand. It is time for Americans to teach themselves a little. Read revisionist historians…there are many and there writings are just as good and valid as the mainstream "American story" historians. Work to implement true American history into your school curriculum. Then it would may be possible to have the real conversation
This is kind of ridiculous. His code name could have been Bugs Bunny, or Lady Gaga for all anyone cares. It carries no significance. It's not about Geronimo. It's about Osama. If they called him someone analogous, like Hitler, that would defeat the purpose of even using a codename.
Get over it!
Maybe we should have called the operation, Jackson.
What if his code name was "George Washington?" I suspect many people would object. That is her point.
This is because americans in general are ignorant of history. everything is blindly converted to a brand, No sense of respect at all. Can completely understand the sensibilities of the blogger.
Ohiobuckeye4ever asks, "Seriously?!?" YES, seriously — reading comments like "Get over it" and other apparent dismissals of Dr. Reese's argument just reinforces why we need to keep talking about racism and its myriad manifestations in our country. This is a country that I love, but its racist history — and present — are facts. Calling someone oversensitive or absurd (now it's my turn — seriously???) doesn't change that. And arguing that educating people about racism is the thing that prevents national unity? Now THAT's absurd.
Luis, you are just another ignorant American, I am assuming your are American, ignornant of True U.S. history! If the code name had been "Pancho Villa" all the mexicans would have been upset. I agree with Debbie Reese's thoughts and comments. As I read on another site: "Apparently, having an African-American president in the White House is not enough to overturn the more than 200-year American tradition of treating and thinking of Indians as enemies of the United States." I guess you have to be Native American to get it and that is the sad thing.
Being an enrolled member of a long standing Indian Tribe from Wyoming I do not see any humor in this Administration's use of Geronimo as the code word for the operation to kill Osama Bin Laden. Geronimo was one of our last warriors to resist the federal government in being placed on an Indian Reservation. If the Administration wanted the glory and credit for killing Osama Bin Laden then they should have used the code word OBAMA.
I remain, KTE
I totally have the same sentiment about using native American heroes like is some form for a disgrace or awful character, if you go and read history and learn from it you will see how bios the European invaders are. example, every battle won by the military was a victory, every battle won by the native was a massacre, murder, or carnage. failing to acknowledge that what all the tribes were doing was defending their land, family, beliefs and freedom, if that does not sound alright go and ask any of those Americans about their right to bear arms, in the end its the same, protecting the ones they love even if you have to kill the intruders in modern day. but like I said non native are just being ignorant (lack of knowledge) and bios. prejudice more likely.
Just bad judgement, that's no surprise. I have two Native American uncle's that help win the war with Japan, one is buried in Guam. I think they would be hurt also, if they were still around.
I'll present you a list of past names used for hurricanes. It's as significant as the name that was used in this case. Let's all go pick a name we recognize, get offended by the national weather service, and give the military a break on this one.
I think I have mixed views. Geronimo WAS pretty bloodthirsty and ruthless. Of course his wife being raped and killed and children killed by Mexicans would make anyone's heart hard and from what I read Apache daily life was no bed of roses, ever. It's an interesting comparison (most don't know?) that a 'semi-secret' mission of U.S. troops were sent to hunt down Geronimo in Mexico, where he often sought refuge after homestead raids in the USA — similar to U.S. troop violating the sovereignty of Pakistan in order to get their man. Many Apaches today would dispute that Geronimo was a 'leader,' except a leader of a small band of rogue elements and his resistance caused his tribe to pay a higher price (all being sent to Florida, even those who cooperated and help USA efforts, like the Apache Scouts). — All that said, the way White's use the term actually has a tone of Respect: Geronimo, the ultimate resister, the hardest target, the symbol of resistance. So it goes…it ain't a perfect world.
My loved ones have served in the U.S. military forces. Thank you for your service and commitment to our country; a job well done concerning Osama. My great grandmother survived the Trail of Tears. Her strength, courage, determination and perserverance as a Native American woman, continues today through her lineage. Geronimo's lineage also continues, and despite the government's political agenda, his strength, courage, determination and perserverance prevails. The government may have labeled him a terrorist, but to the Native American people, he was and always will be a great warrior and hero.
Geronimo was chosen as a code name for Osama. Only the person who actually selected the name knows the exact reasons it was chosen, but I suspect it was simply because Geronimo was the leader of his people and Osama was the leader of his group. I doubt anything more was meant by it. Also, I doubt the Pakistani's had any idea who Geronimo was so using the name wouldn't do much to give away the objective of the forces in the assault (although I'm sure it became obvious pretty quickly) It probably had more utility during the planning in case some snippet of what they were up to came out – all the person overehearing it would know is that they were after "Geronimo" which would tell them nothing.
Unfortunately the two groups – as the author of the article points out – are hardly comparable. The Apache were a native American group coming into conflict with the expanding "whites" who coveted the lands they lived on. The Apache were neither a group of perfect people living an idyllic peacful life in harmony with nature nor a group of bloodthirsty evil savages. They were simply a group of people with their own good and bad, strengths and weaknesses, who were outmatched by the greater numbers and resources of the US military. Geronimo was an effective leader who eventually realized his people couldn't win.
Osama and his group are something else entirely. They were (in the late Osama's case) and are (in the case of the remaining leadership) terrorists, seeking to do as much harm as they can to anyone they don't agree with and duping young men and women into giving up their lives in suicide attacks. Perhaps it would be well to offer an apology for using Geronimo's name in connection with Osama, but I also worry that it is a case of people looking to take offense when none was intended. I doubt there will be much memory of what code name was used 5 years from now, so maybe it would be best to just let it sink into oblivion like the late Osama.
We shall see if the America led by the predominant white race will recognize or acknowledge their mistake in using Geronimo's name for an offender.
Being a current member of the United States Army-Active Duty, deployed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom for 12 month rotation '05 and 15 month rotation '07-'08, I am angry about the enduring bigotry throughout America. Being promoted from Private to Sergeant in only 2 years 8 months, I have proved wrong the stereotype of the lazy/complaining/undeserving "Indian" looking for hand outs. To the contrary, it is my personal experience that Native Americans in the military are the last to complain and first to act. I leave with an proverb associated with many warrior tribes. "It is easy to be brave from afar…"
I can see the argument from both sides. On one hand, they could have used a different code name. On the other hand, they didn't, it's already over, and there's nothing than can be done to change it now. There is a simple fact of the matter that as we try to become more and more sensitive and "Politicaly Correct" it will become a hinderance to the job that needs to be done. And when it comes to code names for military operations that are meant to be kept secret, we can't exactly go off and have a Focus Group on Operational Code Names to determine what Code Name will offend the least amount of people. It defeats the purpose of a Code Name, which is to keep the target and operation a secret.
Personally, I'd let them use my name. Operation Cecil… Killing the terrorist Osama Bin Laden and taking out dear sweet time doing it.
HA! Maybe if they named it something different it wouldn't have taken as long. – Operation Premature Ejaculation.. It was over before it started.
Its my understanding that Geronimo was the mission name and the code name for OBL was actually Jackpot. If true, I suspect we'll be hearing from the state of Nevada next.
We ALL own the history and historical figures of our country. The good and the bad. And I dont believe this is disrespectful. And I dont know how much Native American blood is in my native American body..
Well said Doc. I read you post after I wrote the following–so I am seconding your well expressed comment.
No. Nobody is saying that Geronimo was anything like Osama.. Geronimo is just a code name for the operation or the target, These code names are devised to -obscure- the true mission or target. If you think people associate Geronimo with being a terrorist than his name might have been a bad choice. In this case they should have used Ghandi or Tutu or Teresa. But people who plan these missions are usually no dummies–they would certainly rule out a name that is associated with evil, and they did. They probably used Geronimo merely because it was a name easy on the lips of Americans, but not at all familiar to Pakistani's. It will not be remembered. You are stretching it.
Doc has said this
Wow, you guys are calling most of America (and the President) racist because a codename was chosen by somebody somewhere in the department of defense that doesn't waste time basing their decisions based on political garbage like this, but rather, actually tries to get something accomplished(like find and kill OBL).
Call me racist all you want, but it's a reaction JUST like this that creates a rift, and in fact, creates resentment. The desire is there to treat people the same, but a response like this comes off as those in the minority asking for exceptional status…asking to be different.
And when I say "different" I don't mean throwing away heritage.
It's okay, "hateful" whiteys like me with be in the minority soon, and we'll all get what's coming to us, right?
I concur with the sentiment…"get over it."
A little too black or white to my way of thinking or perhaps a bit over thought. Geronimo was famed for his ability to elude, mislead and escape from his pursuers. This was accomplished despite the overwhelming superiority of manpower and logistical support available to them. He may have been a savage guilty of heinous acts or a patriotic warrior striving to preserve a culture. That depends mainly upon which end his rifle was pointing at you. But the naming of Bin Laden as Geronimo certainly reflects the ability to avoid apprehension for a prolonged period of time.
Wasose Isnala….Congratulations on the promotion and thanks for your service to our Country.
There's no need to be angry unless being offended is what you desire. Its only enduring if you want it to be; there will always be kooks no matter their race or group.
There hasn't been a race or group of peoples that hasn't had some form of hatred, slavery, bigotry, etc… upon them. Political Correctness has run a muck and if you what to accept certain things as negative stereotypes then everyone can and a lot do. Japanese-Americans interned, bigotry on the Irish, Blacks and slavery.
Look at what PC has done…University of Illinois was "The Fighting Illini", St Johns University "The Redmen", Marquette University "Warriors". All changed do to someone wanting to play victim, complain and go PC. No more brave and warrior spirit; we can't offend. Numerous facets of America heritage and history is being torn apart and distorted due to the PC gang. Florida State University is not heeding to the PC crowd and the Seminole Nation are involved with the FSU.
I guess the Army needs to make sure the 509th Airborne stops referring themselves as the "Geronimo's"
Once again…Congratulations of promotions and thank you for your continued service to our Country. I did the OIF vacation in '03, '05, '08. Also had trips to Grenada '83, Sinai '83 & '93, Kosovo '99, blah, blah, blah…
I agree using the code name 'Geronimo" for an international terriorist is a national disgrace. How would mainstream America like the code word John Wayne.
Simply put, Geronimo was a thorn in the side of the ruling faction of this land. Whether he was Native American, Spanish, English, German, Bengali or Botswanian makes no difference. He was someone that the current Army Intelligence sought out as an enemy of the state to those in charge. It is a reflection of the role Geronimo played and not the ethnicity he stemmed from. I agree. Your article was overthinking at its basest.
DYJ, no sane person would care at all.
Name the next target "Custer" and let's get on with worrying about something really important.
I'm really surprised that it would be difficult for so many people to understand the reasons behind the objections to the linking of a terrorist's name with that of a well-known Native American. I'm not a Native American, but I am offended by it, and I don't think that bringing attention to it immediately makes a person a "victim" or a PC person or a whiner.
Imagine for a minute that the code name had been something directly related to your own background. Then, try to imagine what you might say to your child if he or she asked why. It would appear to me that instead of facing the facts about our past, we want to cover them over, thus making it impossible for us to ever really know ourselves or — it would appear — to respect many other people's viewpoints. That is the tragedy of the United States of America.
It is disrepectful. I see a lot of rationalizing in these comments. I am not Native American. I am glad OBL is dead. I have a ton of respect for our men and women in uniform. I don't think the Seals worry about these issues too much. It is what it is. American Indians…should stand tall and be proud of their people and history.
I agree with Red, lets name the next target "Custer" or "Columbus" since the belief and understanding is that codes names at best are just code names…
Just 3 days after the biggest positive event on the war on terror and Americans have gone from Celebration to partisan complaining. Conservatives are unhappy that Bush isn't being given enough credit, Tea Party Palin is mad because Obama won't show the bloody photos, Indians are mad because the mission called Osama a name of one of their great chiefs. And doubters are saying the whole thing was a fabricated event.
You know.
Maybe it would have been better not to have hunted him down at all. No matter what you do many Americans will never be satisfied.
I want to agree with naksuthin. I suspect the name was picked because it is distinctly an American reference recognized by the US Seals and not subject to confusion by other competing communications. But apparently we all are standing around waiting to be insulted and ready to protest. They could have used Cleveland, Platypus, Cumulus, or Magic and then we would have the people of Ohio,PETA, the American Meterologic Society, or Orlando fans protest in addition to being accused of racism, homophobia, etc., etc. If you want to be insulted take it as you wish otherwise I am celebrating a great job by the Seals and some small measure of justince for the thousands of Americans (maybe even some Native Americans) that were killed as a result of this man. Shame on me but yes get over it.
If the name Geronimo was used as code for the operation, IMO it is an honor to the man, Geronimo. However, if it was used as a reference for bin Laden himself, much more than an apology is due to Native Americans.
Geronimo fought to protect his own land from invaders. OBL sent others to fight in his place and hid behind his woman rather than leading his people as Geronimo did. Geronimo is a hero for people all over the world to respect and admire. The use of his name to refer to a terrorist merely perpetuates stereotypes and is dismissive of Native people of this continent and our continuing efforts to be treated with the respect and dignity that we, just as any other people, deserve. If we had called this Mission Bush or Mission MLK then people would be understandably unhappy. Why don't Native people deserve the same level of respect? Native people serve at the highest per capita rate of any minority group in the U.S., and this is the thanks we get? I am thankful that we have accomplished what we have and I applaud all our warriors, Native and non-Native, who fight and sacrifice for us each and every day. Thank you for serving.
I insist this new Islamic terroristist leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, be given a code name, "Barack". When this code name "Barack" is killed, when we hear a commando report, "Barack EKIA", we as a nation can celebrate.
"Barack" is only a code name, none will offended when he is head shot. A good Barack is a dead Barack.
You readers must approve of this code name "Barack" for Ayman al-Zawahiri. If you disapprove then you are two-faced hypocrites, yes? So, let's get on with this job of killing Barack.
I am of an age to have suffered significant old school racism such as being thrown out of a cafe for refusing to sit in the "COLORED" section. I was a little girl back then. During my life I have been a called a "filthy savage" and other Christian terms of endearment. I recall some of my childhood friends, American Indian like me, being forcibly taken from their homes and parents then sent to Christian boarding schools whereupon their traditional clothes were taken, their hair cut off and they suffered bars of soaps in their mouths when they spoke our native tongue. They tell me of beatings and whippings at the hands of Christian missionaries. Racism against American Indians continues to this day, as I type.
We are not "Native Americans", we are "American Indians". This federal label stuck on us is offensive just as is nicknaming Osama Bin Laden after one of our revered heroes, Geronimo. I must again insist Ayman al-Zawahiri being given a code name "Barack". When Barack is killed, our nation can celebrate.
"Barack" is simply a code name, nothing offensive about this code name.

Yes,I used my real Name! An American Indian woman.My whole body did not sit right when I heard Geronimos name was used.And to be told to get over it is ridiculous.Most caucasians does not know the real American History,so an Ignorant statement as get over it,I'm not surprised.
Get it straight people. As other have mentioned:
Operation name : Geronimo
Osama code name : Jackpot
Using the Geronimo in the name of the operation is not a bad association. His name was tied to the effort to eradicate an evil person, not with the person himself.
Caucasions feel safer being ignorant. That's why the status of US education is the way it is.
- "Bin Laden" doesn't roll off the tongue well while jumping out of an airplane. "Osama" works though. Of course there is a reason we yell "Geronimo". It was that flying leap he and his horse took of a cliff and into a river in Oklahoma to escape the US Cavalry in hot pursuit. That's now the rappel site on Ft. Sill btw. I might be inclined to yell "Osama" in the bathroom if I were constipated though.
Get it straight people:
Bin Laden was a terrorist & murderer who hid behind women. Goyalka was an American hero who protected the liberties of his nation that this country was founded on.
JM5K writes, "Operation name : Geronimo … Osama code name : Jackpot"
CIA Director Leon Panetta is quoted as saying to Barack Obama, "We have a visual on Geronimo." In response, Barack Obama is quoted as saying, "We got him."
This directly contradicts what you write.
JM5K adds, "His name (Geronimo) was tied to the effort to eradicate an evil person, not with the person himself."
If we are draw parallels based upon your words then Geronimo's efforts were directed at eradicating "an evil person" namely white Christians who slaughtered tens of millions of my ancestors over a course of four-hundred years of genocide.
Your first statement about "operation" versus "code name" is directly contradicted by Leon Panetta and Barack Obama. Your second statement about "eradicate an evil person" is an inadvertent admission white Christians are those evil people.
Rather clear you cannot escape we traditional American Indians being maddeningly pragmatic. We deal in reality not in political correctness fantasy. I have effectively and truthfully turned your own words against you. This reminds me of hundreds of treaties made by white Christians with American Indians and not a single, not one treaty honored by white Christians. This "word" of Christians is not good, never good; Christians will lie when truth fits better.
I adamantly and fiercely oppose "political correctness" which is simply a fancy expression for "lying". Obama is psychotically politically correct; he almost always lies using fancy words. Nonetheless, there is a line to never be crossed. This is a line between dignity and disrespect. Giving one of the most infamous mass murderers, Osama Bin Laden, giving him a name of an American Indian hero far crosses this line, so much so, nicknaming this Islamic murderous madman, "Geronimo", this crosses over this line into racially tinged disrespect if not an outright racial slur.
I am pragmatic. I am quite certain when Obama, Panetta and those four star generals decided to call Osama Bin Laden by a nickname, "Geronimo", no racism was involved rather something worse, terminal stupidity. Those boys should have known using "Geronimo" as a nickname for the most hated man of our world would later cause serious problems such as making my peoples angry. Obama, Panetta, those four star generals, all display laughable stupidity in this nickname decision of theirs.
Knowing stupid boys are in charge of our nation causes me great concern. I would be comforted to have American Indians in charge of our nation; we are pragmatic and smart.

Nicely put Okpulot Taha Choctaw Nation – we should name the next targets Barack or George Bush or McCain, after all it's just a name and we will get over it, right? oh yeah, no problem, then we can explain to all the school kids across America," hey we just killed barack (or George Bush or McCain) with a bullet between the eyes, brains everywhere!"
Oh, don't worry it's just a code name.
- If you think that this wouldn't confuse a 5-year old Native kid, your delusional and withdrawn from reality.
Alaskan is polite, "Nicely put Okpulot Taha"
Debbie Reese, author of a well written article prompting our comments, does much better. I do appreciate your words, though. Debbie Reese performs an excellent job of highlighting what I know as "White Washing History" and she well highlights how this adversely effects and affects our American children.
White Washing History is one of many tools used to brainwash our children. Obama, Panetta, our military leaders, all display this brainwashing. Those boys made a very stupid decision in using a code name "Geronimo" for Osama Bin Laden. This ignorant decision is a reflection of their being dumbed down by brainwashing through our educational system; they are not critical thinkers.
Certainly some white Christians are upset with me, perhaps angry, rightfully so. I do broad brush paint white Christians equally rightfully so. However, there is no need to write, "This does not apply to all white Christians." Not all Christians are evil doers just like not all Muslims are evil doers. We all know this.
However, there is a need to be realistic about this issue. We are to commend, we are to give our sincere thanks to our girls and boys of our military for their protecting us and doing so with excellence; they risk their lives every single minute for us. Those girls and boys are the greatest, the best.
At a command level, different reality. Over in the Oval Office, within the Pentagon, same for head spooks over in Langley, Virginia, those boys, and some girls, are ignorant beyond excusable. This "Geronimo" issue sincerely has nothing to do with racism rather has everything to do with brainwashed ignorance. Those folks mirror what our lacking educational system taught them: White Washed History.
Debbie Reese makes a point, Alaskan up there also makes this critical point, "If you think that this wouldn't confuse a 5-year old Native kid…."
White Washed History, brainwashing within our school system causes irreparable harm to our American children regardless of skin color. This harm is displayed by Obama and the rest of those boys residing in high white Ivory Towers. Those boys clearly believe Geronimo to be a villain, a bad person, a murderous savage Indian. Many here have commented Geronimo did what any of us would do, protect our families, protect our "tribe" and protect our homeland. Geronimo is a hero right up there with George Washington and Martin Luther King. Our American school children are taught differently, our children are told calculated lies, our innocent and naive children are taught Geronimo was a murderous savage and this is reinforced by using his name, Geronimo, as a nickname, as a code name for murderous maniac Osama Bin Laden. History will forever link Geronimo with Osama Bin Laden. This is wrongful.
Of course we American Indians are offended.
Cecil up there jokes around about using his name next time; Operation Cecil. Cecil, EKIA. This humors me, this is funny. Alaskan tosses out Barack, Bush and McCain. I like this. McCain, EKIA, except his would mean, "McCain, Elderly Kook In Action".
For Christian readers and I love making you squeal by using my sharp pig poking stick on you, next Islamic terrorist we target for assassination, we should code name him, "God". Hey! Let's kill God! Have those sharp shooters blow God's fool head right off! I want to see blood, guts and gore, I want to see God lying dead with his brains splattered all over! God needs killing!
My final thought there begs a question, "Why are we comfortable using "Geronimo" as a nickname for a murderous maniac but we would never nickname a mass murderer with the name of God?"
Is this Christians respect God but disrespect red skinned peoples? Maybe this is actually an issue of brainwashing our children into believing a white washed version of history. Deliberately teaching our children to be dumb is amongst the greatest of sins Christians can commit. Teaching our children to differentiate by skin color is a mortal sin.
Thank you, Alaskan, for your supportive words, and thank you, Debbie Reese, for your well thought out and exceptionally well written article.
By-the-by, English is not my native tongue. Nonetheless, I do well with writing because I take pride in being well educated, and truthful realistic education is only that which will resolve these problems plaguing our world.
Okpulot Taha – Choctaw Nation
Weird my response never got posted. Recap then:
Okpulot Taha:
First, here's my sources (not including actual links, in case that's why first response wasn't posted):
Our understanding is that bin Laden's actual code name was 'Jackpot' and the operation name was 'Geronimo
After bin Laden was killed, the military sent a message back to the White House: "Geronimo EKIA" — enemy killed in action. U.S. officials have since said that "Geronimo" was the name of the operation itself and that "Jackpot" was the code word for bin Laden.
"Geronimo" was the code name for the mission where 24 Navy SEALs raided Bin Laden's three-story million-dollar compound in Abbotabad, Pakistan; "Geronimo" was also the code the SEALs used to alert their commanders that they identified their target; and finally "Geronimo-E KIA" was the coded message to confirm that they had killed Bin Laden.
Also, let's discuss you're 'refutation' of my claim. You suggest Obama responded 'we got him' to 'we have a visual on Geronimo'. Now stop and actually considering what you're saying. Why would he respond that way to a mere confirmation of a visual? He wouldn't. His response 'we got him' was after he heard 'Gernomio EKIA' . EKIA= enemy killed in action. If Gernomio was in fact Osama's code name as you claim, why would they say EKIA? They would have merely said 'Gernoimo KIA'.
So again I'll say Geronimo was tied to the action of finding and killing Osama, not the individual. Your silly 'parallel' made me laugh. Thanks for that. But it does beg the question, how seriously are you actually taking this matter? If this is truly important to you, then I hope you can acknowledge how Geronimo's name was actually used and move on from this. For clarification, if Osama's code name had actually been Geronimo, then I could certainly understand criticism directed at the POTUS.
I agree – we are living in a "brainwashed" society and our teachers have failed us miserabley when it comes to teaching about American Indians. Come to think of it, having grown up in the 60s, I can't recall being taught much about American Indians. What I saw about my people was played out on TV with the Lone Ranger and Tonto. When it camed to playing Cowboys and Indians, none of my llittle friends wanted to play an Indian because they were always getting killed! In recent wars of our time, US soldiers are told they are "fiighing in Indian Country" no matter what land they are on. We are made out to be terriorist in our own land. I don't see change happening anytime soon, their perception is already deeply imbedded. We must educate and prepare our teachers with more positive messages about our heroes and our roles in making this the great country we live in. We must insist on it!
Pamela astutely writes, "We are made out to be terriorist in our own land. I don't see change happening anytime soon, their perception is already deeply imbedded."
Yes, denigrating American Indians is as American as Mom, Apple Pie and John Wayne. For centuries our American children are taught we Indians are ignorant savages who are nothing more than a thorn in the side of our predominately Christian society. Neither historians nor teachers are willing to acknowledge our American government and our American peoples perpetrated the most horrific genocide of written history against American Indians. This genocide continues today albeit in subtle ways such as our Christian faith based government forcibly sterilizing American Indian women during the Seventies and Eighties.
Barack Obama and his left liberal socialist apologists are quick to label any who disagree with Obama as racists. Obama claims to be racially sensitive but this only proves true when this benefits him politically. Currently Obama and his boys are working at weaseling out of their responsibility for directly comparing Geronimo to Osama Bin Laden.
Within hours of the first American Indians objecting to our government racially stereotyping American Indians as Islamic terrorists, Obama and his boys began using slippery semantics to avoid being held accountable for their thoughtless and taught racist behaviors. Obama is currently redefining circumstances surrounding this abhorrent labeling of Geronimo as a murderous Islamic terrorist, "No, that is not what we meant, this is what we meant." Baloney, Obama is lying through his teeth like the politician he is. Obama is protecting his never ending political campaign for presidency rather than owning up to truth. Obama is sacrificing American Indians for what he perceives as a greater and good cause; political expediency.
A difference here is traditional American Indians would not do this, would not weasel word out of being held accountable for wrongful actions. A traditional America Indian would stand and state, "You are right. This is wrongful to compare Geronimo to Osama Bin Laden. I made a mistake, I am responsible for this and I sincerely apologize."
Obama is neither man enough nor honest enough to be truthful with our nation nor with our world. Obama cowardly chooses weasel words to protect his political aspirations rather than bravely choose truthful words to protect our national pride and dignity.
There is a distinct difference between traditional American Indians and traditional Christians. We traditional Indians teach our children to be truthful even when truth hurts. Traditional Christians teach their children to be deceitful in the name of God.
Obama is at least being truthful when he says he is a traditional Christian. He has learned well how to be deceitful in the name of God and in the name of political expediency.
Okpulot Taha – Choctaw Nation
he's dead now we can stop worring about captureing him
CODE NAME: GERONIMO not for a mission but for a man "OSAMA"
"GERONIMO Enemy Killed In Action" So maybe I would rather it was "That Son of a Bush Enemy Killed In Action" or maybe "Palin Enemy Killed In Action" > Another way of "Honoring" Native Americans by naming the most wanted enemies of United States Federal Government, Native American Leader names, then hunting them down and killing them.
I'm sure the SEALS meant no disrespect to the Apache People, in Hindsight they could have picked a better cod name like Satan, Lucifer or similar.
But i can understand the reference, both men tied up large amounts of the Military resources searching for them.
Also if that was the name of the Operation does they still use random names for operations ?
Basically, this is boiled down to individuals who know the difference between reality and a name that was likely never intended for public awareness.
Call Osama by the codename "Bush." He's been called similar/worse things by Americans here at home in the public media.
Be proud of your heritage, but also be aware that we live in a country of differing backgrounds and points of view. And these points of view aren't rooted in an inherent hatred toward American Indians or any other group. It's rooted in the belief (at least for me) that we are all Americans, and no single group of individuals is better or worse than the whole.
Claiming that you yourself are disrespected because an individual you have no affiliation with other than the color of your skin? Come on. I wouldn't be disrepected if someone talked bad about George Washington because you know what? I didn't know him. He lived 250 years ago The only time I "might" get upset is if I was defending America against another country. And even then, it's a stretch.
Debbie Reese has a point that should be addressed; however, there are some additional considerations:
"Geronimo" was not the name of the Apache warrior, except in the usage of his enemies. He was known as Goyahkla (one variant) among his own people. The name "Geronimo" was given to him, according to legend, by anglo Americans who heard Mexicans calling on St. Jerome (Jeronimo) during a battle in which "Geronimo" fought fiercely.
The word "Geronimo" became the cry of US paratroops as they exited their planes, in honor of a then-famous leap into a river made by the Apache warrior escaping recapture by American troops.. The choice of this name for the operation (apparently not for OBL himself) may stem from this usage.
Okpulot Taha of the Choctaw Nation (above), deploring the thoughtlessness of nonNative Americans, asks, "Why are we comfortable using "Geronimo" as a nickname for a murderous maniac but we would never nickname a mass murderer with the name of God?" Actually, the Spanish name for the saint comes from the Greek "Hieronymos", meaning "holy name", which in turn is often a reference to God Himself by people who, for reasons of piety, do not utter the name of God directly. So, unwittingly, indirectly, we DID use the name of God for the operation….
Would it be better if Americans had no knowledge of Indian historical figures? We have to at least be proud that the name "Geronimo" is a part of American lexicon and remembered at all by Americans… and not gone the way of other forgotten leaders of our past.
What a bunch of cry-babies.
Most people don't know a damn thing about Geronimo except he was fearsome and tough. The nation is coming apart, on just about every level imaginable. More relevant, the NA "reservations" are filled with hopelessness and alcoholism, and people are whining about stuff like this.
I call "conspiracy hijack." Perhaps you should try being half White and dealing with Black comedians constantly *actually* degrading your race with *actual* ethnic slurs that convey *actual* disrespect, like "honky" and "cracker." Might thicken your skin a bit, you grievance-mongering nobody.
I'd better tell the kids to yell something else when they jump in the pool
I am the originator of the code name "Geronimo" and I didn't expect this much flake from all the Natives of this land but there is a story behind why I called OBL in reference to Geronimo. You see, this past weekend, I was in Phoenix, Arizona for the secret services' conference on the Assignment of Code Names to America's Terrorist Operations when I happen to have a little down time due to a Dr. Uno Blanco, a Spanish professor from the Sandinista National Liberation Front, being delayed a day. While looking around the area, I happen to stumble upon a nice little casino run by the Apache/Yavapai tribe called Cliff Castle Casino. Being of strong Southern faith and beaten almost daily to build strong ethics and morality, it was almost a joy to shed this suit of 'convictions,' if you will, and frolic among these soulless heathens for a bit. My Gawd, I didn't even know 'they' still existed! I mean, I thought 'they' were all extinct! Seriously! Anyways, I lost BIG that night! On top of that, it seemed the Native, Apache to be exact, were daring me to bet even more money every time I would lose a hand. One even had on what appeared to be a Yale, "Cross and Bones" alumni tie! Yea, like HE went to Yale! But what really set me off was that every time the casino would win, this big 'Chief,' would yell, JACKPOT! To make a long story long, I really, really lost big that night! Since I couldn't recoup my loses nor fight these individuals, I'm an analysts, the only thing I could do to get back at them was to metaphorically associate their hero with one of extreme hate and the OBL op just sort of just happened at the same time. I didn't expect this much of an uproar! Besides, my dad, who was also an analyst back in the 60′s and 70′s said that Natives didn't complain when we were equating Apaches and Indians in general to the Vietcong during that little 'conflict' we had back in 69'.
Awesome. Obama and his crew are racists.
Now if that doesn't call for removing this crew from office, what does?
Part Cherokee comments in part, "So, unwittingly, indirectly, we DID use the name of God for the operation."
A century and more back my native tongue, Choctaw, is slaughtered by Christian missionaries. Hundreds of "new" Choctaw expressions are imposed upon us to accommodate Christianity. One of those expressions imposed by Christians, specifically missionary Cyrus Byington, is "na hollo". This is what Choctaw are expected to call white folks. A literal interpretation is "holy thing". An interpretation to English is "holy people". Christians demanded we refer to them as minor deities, "holier than thou".
Our traditional expression for white folks is "hatak nipi tohbi" which simply means, "person whose meat is white." We American Indians are highly pragmatic, we describe what we see not what people expect of us. White meat, red meat, black meat, brown meat, all are realistic descriptive expressions which readily identify a person sans all this typical egotistical baggage, "I am holier than thou."
This is a cultural secret kept from our American public, especially our American children. A similar secret well kept by left liberal Hollywood is the author of "The Wizard Of Oz" was a murderous racist. Frank Baum, this author of The Wizard Of Oz, wrote in part in his Aberdeen Pioneer newspaper in South Dakota, "…frontier settlements will be secured by the total annihilation of the few remaining Indians…better that they die than live the miserable wretches that they are." Within a week, white Christians slaughtered hundreds of American Indian women and children and what few Indian men were still alive. Frank Baum prompted a savage slaughtering of defenseless Indians in nearby Wounded Knee.
Left liberal Hollywood, cultist supporters of socialist Obama, celebrate The Wizard Of Oz and covet roles in stage and in movie adaptations of Frank Baum's story. None of those left liberal character players are daunted by nor discuss Frank Baum was directly responsible for a horrific slaughtering of Indians at the Wounded Knee encampment.
This is "na hollo", this is holier than thou, a notion of being a superior race who keep secrets about themselves. This is a truth is missing within our schools. Teachers speak highly of Frank Baum, teachers have children present stage plays of The Wizard Of Oz but never comment nor confess, "This story was written by a murderous racist."
This issue of associating Geronimo with Osama Bin Laden is nothing more than perpetuating secret keeping, nothing more than preventing our American children from learning of truth and this truth is Christian Americans slaughtered tens of millions of Indians in the name of God. They are "holier than thou."
Part Cherokee comments, "we DID use the name of God for the operation". Rather ironic, certainly, just as ironic as Christians demanding we Choctaw refer to them as "holy people" in the name of God. However, not as ironic as celebrating The Wizard Of Oz is celebrating a known murderous racist who effected the slaughtering of hundreds of Indian women and children at Wounded Knee, including eviscerating pregnant Indian mothers to kill their babies within, all in the name of God.
I teach Choctaw language online for free. Looking over my language lessons people quickly discover I teach traditional Choctaw only and adamantly demand students never use Christian imposed expressions. One of those forbidden expressions is "na hollo". I will not refer to white Christians as holier than thou gods.
Yes, maddeningly ironic how often Christians misuse the name of God, often unknowingly. More maddening are those horrible secrets Christian keep from our American children.
Geronimo was a not a murderous terrorist a la insane Islamic style as Christians would have us believe. However, The Wizard Of Oz was murderous terrorist just as abhorrent as Islamic jihadists. This is a type of Christian secret which must be exposed and defeated, in the name of God. This is the true issue of this Geronimo mess; keeping secrets from our American children for egotistical self-righteous reason.
God cannot conceal truth and truly be God. Truth is concealed from our American children. This renders the Christian god, a false god, a secret keeping false god.
Okpulot Taha – Choctaw Nation
This is just plain stupid. People need to really get over themselves.
Not sure why this code name was chosen, but Osama was the extreme opposite of Geronimo.
This is a pretty silly article; no one associates 'Geronimo' the Native American connotations except for hyper sensitive Native Americans desperate for something to complain about.
this is a completely legitimate article; as a non-Native American I made the link between the use of the name Geronimo and the Native American hero. I AM desperate to complain about a link being made between the man who once said 'We are all the children of one God' and bin Laden, a man who is supposed to have been the one to plan unrestrained attacks on innocent people, such as in 9/11. People need to remember what the true enemy of humanity is, and it certainly isnt held in the concept of us all being children of one god. it could be partly held in ignorance of what people feel, disregarding them as being hyper-sensitive..
Frame of reference is the most important concept in understanding society and history. "The Honest Truth" is that "hyper sensitive Native Americans" are sick and tired of xenophobic mentalities in regard to accepting that people or groups have different frames of reference. Therefore, we see the responses to this article like the aforementioned as well as "silly" and "stupid." Blanket statements like "no one associates Geronimo…" with Bin Ladin reveals the narrow mindedness of many Americans. Thank you Dr. Reese for writing this article, and please do not "get over yourself."
A "hypersensitive" Pueblo Indian with a CIB
It's recently been revealed that:
…Geronimo "was not bin Laden's code name, but rather a representation of the letter "G." Each step of the mission was labeled alphabetically, and "Geronimo" meant that the raiders had reached step "G," the killing or capture of bin Laden"
Sounds like this has been a typical overreaction by Dr. Reese.
How Naive and Ignorant are people, at Fort Polk, Louisiana, the Joint Readiness Training Center, there is a unit called Geronimo, that simulates, the enemy Haji, for pre-deployment training, the 509th Infantry Airborne (Geronimo), plays the enemy during rotations, and they are called Geronimo, every one in the Army and Military knows, this that's why the call the enemy Geronimo.
Once again Ms. Reese expounds and recycles, believing she has discovered some great secret or conspiracy. Her career is really just a string of meandering critiques.
In my opinion you commit an error. I can prove it.

obama does not know what he is! needs money he's white needs votes he's black this country was ours GERONIMO had balls to protect his own. invade my house you don't walk out. invade this country obama will tell to stop don't do that he is a discrace.
Geronimo was a resister, militant, leader of a nation being crashed by the greedy government of other nation in washington dc. Calling this operation Geronimo is a disgrace to the human race. Geronimo is all what this new american nation says that represents: freedom for his people, that's it. Our government is dominated by a large bunch of millionaires that still think that they own the country and therefore, its history. A shame.

TMI TUESDAY RIGHT AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *shoots self*
My friends told me to post this cause "You make a sexy Dirk, just fucking post the pictures already", please don't hate me OTL
Yer this be my crap-tastic Dirk Strider cosplay

How in the FUCK do I still have 163 followers??
You guys are crazy, I like that.
I'm gonna reward you guys with my face * ^ *
So this just happened….
Also, follow up to my last post, STOP HATIN'.
I mean…what are you hating on people for?? I don't-I can't even imagine why?? Like, okay be jealous or whatever, but why you gotta hate? Why you gotta TAG that hate for said person, or ask blog, or pairing, or ship or whatever? Why are you even FOLLOWING the person you hate?? Just to stay "nyeh I don't like what he's saying nyeh nyeh"??? WHAT IS THE POINT IN THAT I CAN'T EVEN
Why would you waste the energy in focusing such unwarranted hate and anger on a person, OVER THE INTERNET, when there are MUCH better things you can be doing with that energy??? Go walk the dog, paint a picture, cook some fucking breakfast, read a book, GET OFF THE INTERNET, take a walk in the park, do your freaking homework, GET OFF THE INTERNET, do something other than doing the thing which you're wasting precious time and energy on???
Just…gosh, I'm not targeting a specific fandom anymore, I'm just talking about tumblr in general now.
Yo, Once-ler fandom, what the heck are you guys doing???
I've stayed out of the drama and hung out on my other account to avoid all the nonsense, and now I'm seeing Skully's post and…??
So this happened earlier…

Bandwidth Tutorial for IP Video Surveillance Systemsby John Honovich, IPVM posted on Jan 07, 2012 About John Contact John
When using IP cameras and video management systems, understanding the basics about bandwidth availability and demands is critical to planning, designing and deploying systems. Everyone in the industry should have an understanding of the basics as bandwidth is a critical factor in video surveillance
This article is focused for a non-IT audience such as security managers, electronic technicians, sales and marketing folks. I am purposely ignoring details and edge cases to help a broader audience better understand the basics.
[UPDATED: This is a 2012 revision of the original article from 2008 that reflects changes in IP camera usage.]
How Much Bandwidth is Available?
To determine bandwidth availability, you first need to determine what locations you are communicating between. Much like driving, you will have a starting point and destination. For example, from your branch office to your headquarters. However, unlike driving, the amount of bandwidth available can range dramatically depending on where you are going.
The most important factor in determining how much bandwidth is available is whether or not you need connectivity between two different buildings. For instance:
- In the Same Building - Lots of Bandwidth: 70Mb/s to 700 Mb/s of bandwidth is generally available
- Between Different Buildings - Scarce Bandwidth: 0.5 Mb/s to 5 Mb/s of bandwidth is generally available
The amount of bandwidth available going from your office to a co-worker's office in the same building can be 200 times more than the bandwidth from your office to a branch office down the block.
This is true in 90% or more cases. Note the following exceptions:
- If these are different buildings but on the same campus, more bandwidth may be available.
- If you are in a central business district of a major city, more bandwidth may be available.
- If you are a telecommunications or research company, more bandwidth may be available.
Different Buildings
The key driver in bandwidth availability is the cost increase of deploying networks between buildings. Generally referred to as the Wide Area Network or WAN, this type of bandwidth is usually provided by telecommunications companies. One common example is cable modem or DSL, which can provide anywhere from .5 Mb/s to 5 Mb/s at $20 to $50 per month. Another example is a T1, which provides 1.5Mb/s for about $300 to $600 per month. Above this level, bandwidth generally becomes very expensive. In most locations, getting 10Mb/s of bandwidth can cost thousands per month.
Many talk about fiber (sometimes called FTTH/FTTC) but fiber to the building is not and will not be widely available for years. Fiber to the home or to the business promises to reduce the cost of bandwidth significantly. Nevertheless, it is very expensive to deploy and despite excited discussions for the last decade or more, progress remains slow. If you have it great, but do not assume it.
Same Buildings
By contrast, bandwidth inside of buildings (or campuses) is quite plentiful because the install costs are quite low. Non technical users can easily set up a 1,000 Mb/s networks inside a building (aka Local Area Networks or LANs) for less than $1,000 installation cost with no monthly costs. Contrast this to the WAN, where the same bandwidth could cost tens of thousands of dollars per month.
The cost of deploying networks in buildings are low because there are minimal to no construction expenses. When you are building a network across a city, you need to get rights of ways, trench, install on telephone poles, etc. These are massive projects that can easily demand millions or billions of dollars in up front expenses. By contrast, inside a building, the cables can often by quickly and simply fished through ceilings (not the professional way to do it but the way many people do it in deployments).
A lot of discussion about wireless (WiMax, WiFi, 3G, etc) exists but wireless will not provide significantly greater bandwidth nor significantly better costs than DSL or cable modem. As such, wireless will not solve the expense and limitations of bandwidth between buildings. That being said, wireless absolutely has benefits for mobility purposes and connecting to remote locations that DSL or cable modem cannot cost effectively serve.
Simple point to point wireless links have become inexpensive but are limited in where they can be used. Today, 50-100 Mb/s wireless connections for a few hundred dollars are feasible (excluding installation). However, these only can be used when clear line of sight is available. This helps when you want to locate a camera 100 meters away in a parking lot but not if you want to transmit across a city.
How Much Bandwidth Do IP Cameras Consume?
For the bandwidth consumption of an IP camera, use 1-2 Mb/s as a rough rule of thumb. Many factors impact total bandwidth consumption. You can certainly stream an IP camera as low as .2 Mb/s (or 200 Kb/s) and others as high as 6 Mb/s. In 2012, the most typical IP camera being deployed are HD (720p or 1080p) using the H.264 codec at about 6-10fps. With this configuration, bandwidth consumption will be in the range of 1-2 Mb/s. Of course, the more resolution and greater frame rate you want, the more bandwidth will be used.
What Does this Mean for my IP Video System?
Just like dealing with personal finance, we can now figure out what we can 'afford':
- Between Buildings: We have .5 Mb/s to 5 Mb/s to 'spend'
- Inside Buildings: We have 70 Mb/s to 700 Mb/s to 'spend'
- IP cameras: Cost us 1-2 Mb/s each
Using these points, we can quickly see what combination of IP and megapixel cameras we can use between buildings or inside of buildings.
- Inside of buildings, it is easy to stream numerous IP and megapixel cameras.
- Between buildings, it is almost impossible to stream numerous IP and megapixel cameras.
Because of this situation, the standard configuration one sees in IP Video systems is:
- A local recorder at each building/remote site. The local recorder receives the streams from the building and stores them.
- The local recorder only forwards the streams (live or recorded) off-site when a user specifically wants to view video. Rather than overloading the WAN network with unrealistic bandwidth demands all day long, bandwidth is only consumed when a user wants to watch. Generally, remote viewing is sporadic and IP video coexists nicely with the expensive Wide Area Network.
- The local recorder has built-in features to reduce the bandwidth needed to stream video to remote clients. Most systems have the ability to reduce the frame rate of the live video stream or to dynamically reduce the video quality to ensure that the video system does not overload the network and that remote viewers can actually see what is going on the other side. Generally, the live video stream is sufficient to identify the basic threat. In any event, bandwidth is generally so costly, especially the upstream bandwidth needed to send to a remote viewer, that this is the best financial decision.
Knowing how much bandwidth is available and how much bandwidth IP cameras consume are key elements in planning and deploying viable IP video systems. Though this is simply a broad survey, my hope is that this helps identify fundamental elements in understanding the impact of bandwidth on IP video.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
So I just had a sudden thought while researching for my fic (which is waaaay past it's due date, sorry gaiz I'm still workin on it, but I'm gettin there! Got distracted by holidays).
Tasha Lem said in The Time of the Doctor that he cannot say his name because he will [bring back the Time Lords] if he did. And quoting from someone's awesome explanation of the Cracks in the Universe [x], the Church of the Papal Mainframe/Silence devoted themselves "to keep Trenzalore protected, so that the Doctor's hand is never forced".
Though Madam Kovarian separated herself from the sect of the Papal Mainframe, she was part of that before deciding to rebel.
River knew his name…Kovarian must have said something to River or possibly River learned/overheard it.
When River told Ten that she's gonna tell him his name in Silence in the Library, he said that it's impossible, there's only one time he could say his name. As she said in The Name of the Doctor, "I made him" and "it took a while" before the Doctor told River his real name.
Something very, very bad must have happened that River had to force the Doctor's name out of him to bring back the Time Lords.
Tldr: River Song will come back later on in the future and when she does, it's when the Doctor tells her his name to bring back the Time Lords because something very, very bad has happened and he's down to his last resort.
Timeline-wise, this would most likely be before she goes to the Library.
This is one heck of an event so this will possibly happen in a Christmas Special, an Anniversary Special, when we hear news of the Time Lords coming back, or when we get a glimpse of River's modified Sonic Screwdriver.
Dunno, just mah two cents.
there is nothing scarier than writing something for someone you know is a much better writer than you
I know the feeling, dear @__@

thedoctorsinslytherin replied to your post "So…I have a bunch of mattex ideas in my notes and in my head but I…"
Mattex - AU High School fic? Matt's the jock who falls in love with Alex? Maybe teenage pregnancy?
Hmmm, still thinkin how I'll do that one but 'tis definitely on my list! Thank you lots for it! Shall start right after I finish the first prompt~
….and after I cry about Matt.
2 moar days..!!
yesroslc17 reblogged your post Erhm…the titanic prompt which I planne… and added:
Oh. Tell me when you publish it :) and where
Will definitely do! I'll most likely publish it in ao3 but I'll post a link here in tumblr.
But ugh too many things to clean and do atm though….I just wanna continue writing and hopefully finish it soooooon before the cryfest!
Erhm…the titanic prompt which I planned to write as a drabble became a full fic.
…this might take a while.
BUT I got like 80% of it written down though! *twirls*
YAY! I gots prompts!
Actually did not expect getting any from you guys and so soon too but THANK YOUUUU! *hugs*
I shall get right to it!~
So…I have a bunch of mattex ideas in my notes and in my head but I can't seem to find the motivation to write any of them. Personal goals don't seem to be enough atm -.- so I'm wondering and a little curious if anyone would like to suggest a prompt for me to write? I'll try me best!

which radionuclide is used, it will travel a few millimeters to centimeters before annihilating with an atomic electron. As such, the site of annihilation is not the site of emission, resulting in a limitation when defining the origin of the decay. Another limitation is the fact that the positron-electron pair is not at rest when the annihilation occurs; thus by virtue of the conservation of momentum, the two photons are not exactly collinear. Although the lack of collinearity becomes increasingly important with greater detector separation, this effect is ignored, for the most part, in existing tomographs because the detector ring diameter is less than a meter, at which distance the deviation from 180° is a fraction of a millimeter.
Because diagnostic imaging is driven by a digital approach (present/absent, yes/no), the desire to have uncluttered images resulting from PET is very important. Nevertheless, the true power of PET lies in its ability to track the distribution of a tracer over time and to extract detailed kinetic data, as in a physical chemistry experiment where rate constants are determined. So, the conflict between using PET technology for clinical diagnosis and using it as an in vivo biochemistry tool will not be easily resolved, nor should it be.

Sorry boys, that long form Certificate has been shown to be bogus. Not surprised you have to call everyone who has taken the time to review the evidence as fools. Much like the warmers trash the "sceptics". We all know its the warmers who are lying. We all know it is Obama who is lying, yet here you are, all RINO'ed up, willing to believe that the cobbled together birth certificate is the real deal. You likely believe his composite girlfriends are the real thing too. Still, whether or not he was born in Hawaii (even though he previously claimed he was born in Kenya) is irrelevant. The man's father was Kenyan not American and therefore Obama is NOT a Natural Born citizen and is not qualified to be president.
