You don't have to live alone in the woods, reading issues of Guns and Ammo and co-writing your manifesto with beard lice, to be terrified about the state of basic freedoms in America today. Given the counterterrorism provisions in the fairly recent National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 (NDAA), we currently live in a country where the government can pick up American citizens and detain them indefinitely without access to a lawyer or even a criminal trial. That means locked up forever without even the basic protections we afford to rapists and murderers.
"That can't be right," you say. "Such a power would be completely unconstitutional!"
And you're right. Even President Obama said he had "serious reservations with certain provisions [of the bill] that regulate the detention, interrogation and prosecution of suspected terrorists." And then he signed it.
But the point is not just to beat up on the president. After all, Governor Romney did that for 90 minutes in last Wednesday's debate without a single mention of these NDAA provisions. That's because the NDAA will persist under a Romney administration as well. That's right: Regardless of who wins in November, your lingering notions of living in a country that is free and democratic can best be described as "quaint" and "wrong."Getty
"I'll sign my name, but I'm not gonna draw a smiley face in the O like usual."
So considering that this law alters our concept of what it even means to live in a democracy, why is no one talking about it? Why does no one seem to care? There are three major reasons, but first, let's talk about what the NDAA is.
What Is the NDAA?
The primary role of the NDAA is to provide for the Defense Department's budget, which this year amounts to a cozy $662 billion. However, the NDAA also contains counterterrorism provisions in sections 1021 and 1022 that allow the federal government to imprison any person "who was part of or substantially supported al-Qaida, the Taliban or associated forces that are engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners" until "the end of the hostilities."
Did that clear it up for you? No? See, that's part of the problem. The NDAA is so poorly defined that it becomes a bit of an inkblot test for its possible effect. But the thing is, when it comes to basic, constitutionally protected, fundamental freedoms, we typically don't take an "Ahh, y'know what I mean" approach. What we do know is, pursuant to the NDAA, American citizens on American soil can be jailed indefinitely without the right to legal counsel if suspected of being a terrorist. And as Senator Rand Paul has pointed out, there are already all sorts of things on the books that can make you a suspect, such as missing fingers or having more than a week's worth of food in your house.
So, here we are in a tight election, and none of the candidates or pundits are talking about the one issue that's at the heart of the role of government and our rights as citizens. Why?

Laboratory & Blood Testing Services
Blood testing is the single most important preventive tool you can use to help head off health problems. Life Extension® makes it possible to take advantage of that tool at a fraction of the cost commercial blood labs charge.
Get a picture of your overall health. Identify potential disease risks. Test for specific problems with comprehensive blood test panels and individualized tests like these:
- Male and Female Comprehensive Panels
- Cardiac Risk Factors
- Vitamin Deficiencies
- Hormone and Thyroid Panels
- Metabolic and Chemistry Profiles
It's never been easier or less expensive to get the blood tests you need.
As a Life Extension member you can help stave off diseases, (atherosclerosis, diabetes, stroke), achieve optimal health and save money in the process. You can order blood tests and discuss your results with our Life Extension Health Advisory team.
So join Life Extension here and now. And get the life-saving, cost-saving benefits of our unique blood lab and testing service!
Cancer Tests If you've been diagnosed with cancer, you most likely want to ensure you have all the tools available to beat this killer disease, including a variety of cancer tests.
Heart Health Knowing and lowering your cholesterol is not necessarily enough to stave off heart disease. Life Extension® has identified 17 distinct heart disease risk factors (many of which are ignored by mainstream medicine) … and offers blood test assessments for them.
Hormone Testing Anti-aging experts agree the first step for living a long, healthy and happy life is hormone restoration. Many doctors believe that hormones contain the juice of youth.
Men's Health Concerns The list of men's top health concerns is surprisingly short — including heart disease, cancer and erectile dysfunction. Thankfully, most threats to men's health are largely preventable.
Women's Health Concerns Few topics have attracted as much attention in recent years as women's health concerns. For decades, physicians often neglected such conditions as heart disease, weight management and hormone depletion in women.
Nutrient Testing Vitamin imbalances could be causing or contributing to your health issues. Many experts believe that hair loss, brittle nails, insomnia, rashes, and even fatigue are often associated with nutritional deficiencies.
Bone Health Poor bone health can have deadly consequences. Did you know that osteoporosis and fractures are associated with a significant mortality rate? Although bone density scans play an important role in the health of your bones, it's just not enough.
Kidney and Metabolic Along with digestion, the urinary system forms the foundation for optimal health and wellness. Did you know that metabolic testing helps your doctor evaluate many diseases from diabetes and gout to infections and liver disease?
Infections & Immune Disorders Infectious diseases result from the presence of pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. Infectious pathologies are called communicable diseases because of their potential to be transmitted from one person to another.
Allergies Doctors too often overlook the impact that food sensitivities have on overall health. Food sensitivities may be a major reason why you don't feel well. Symptoms such as fatigue, joint and muscle pain, upset stomach, and irregularity can often result from the foods you are eating.
Urinary Tests A routine urinalysis is an important part of a yearly workup … but it's often not enough. Life Extension® believes that a more comprehensive approach to urine testing should include hormone status.
Health And Wellness Panels Our long-term goal at Life Extension® is to research and publish innovative anti-aging and optimal health strategies. The laboratory services we offer are at the forefront of our efforts to help you head off problems or deal with them more effectively.

It's really frustrating and unrealistic that Kenny would dislike Lee all the way until the end just because you didn't help him bash Larry's skull in. I've helped his family more than he has, yet he's hesitant to help me find Clem.
Why would TTG focus so much on one decision? How about giving some realistic responses for once. I'd love to tell Kenny about how i fed Duck, kept Larry from kicking his boy out. Put his son out of his misery when he was too weak to do it. Saved his ass from zombies when he's abandoned me twice. I mean, How much more could one man do? Give us a chance to tell Kenny off before Lees departure.

Gallery: Origami-Like Glass Building Has a Striking Folded Facade
The folded facade consists of two layers. The outer one is a glazed skin made up of framed glass set in a tubular frame while the inner layer is the building's windows. There are two major benefits to the design: noise from the busy boulevard is noticeably reduced and solar heat gain is decreased via radiation reduction and a breathable wall system.
In addition to the increased energy efficiency afforded by the double skin, the building holds meetings in a daylit, two story atrium that opens to a roof deck. To promote denser land use, the seven stories below roof contain office space and a subterranean three floor robotic parking lot.

NY Gov. Cuomo Proposes Buying Homes Devastated By Sandy To Preserve Flood Prone Areas

In a program proposed by New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, New York state could spend up to $400 million to buy out home owners whose properties were destroyed by Superstorm Sandy. The $50.5 billion disaster relief package, which was passed by Congress last month, would be used to fund the program. If the program is adopted, homeowners would be relocated and their land would be left as a natural barrier to help absorb future floods waters. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)

Title: the revenge of the SHOE GOBLIN - part 2
Date: August 4, 2006
Summary: The Shoe Goblin attempts to purchase a shoe, but his plans are foiled!
Cast: Beaver, Steve, Shoe Goblin
Onomatopoeias used: "TAP", "SNATCH!", "HMM", "SIGN", "PASS", "POINT!"
Number of panels: 7
Panel 1
Steve TAP TAPs on a form.
Steve: "OK, just sign here and the shoes are all yours!"
Shoe Goblin: "And then my revenge can begin! Ha ha ha!"
Steve: "Sorry, what was that?"
Shoe Goblin: "Oh, I was, uh.. Just clearing my throat"
Panel 2
Steve SNATCHes the form away again.
Steve: "Wait a minute... You're not the Shoe Goblin are you?"
Shoe Goblin: "Who me? O-of course not..."
Panel 3
There are two posters on the walls, reading
-An image of the Shoe Goblin-
And half a poster that reads
-An image of a bigfoot-
Shoe Goblin: (in the exact same pose as his picture, even with the same sweat drops on his forehead) "No no, I be, uh... The Glove Elf!"
Steve HMMs...
Shoe Goblin: "Aye, I be just loving gloves"
Shoe Goblin: "Especially the, uh, fingers"
Panel 4
Steve: "OK, just checking! Here you go."
Beaver: "Hey Steve, how's it going?"
Steve: "Hi Beaver! I'm just dealing with this customer who is definitely not the Shoe Goblin."
Steve: "Could you pass me his credit card?"
The Shoe Goblin SIGN SIGNs the form.
Panel 5
Beaver is about to PASS the card to Steve.
Beaver: "Sure thing Steve! Hee hee! I'm certainly glad it's not the Shoe Goblin! Imagine the trouble we'd be in if..."
Panel 6
Beaver: "But wait!"
Beaver: "This card... The name is S.Goblin!"
5403 5403 5403 5403
(scribbles) 11/04 (more scribbles) 10/07
Mr S.Goblin
Panel 7
Beaver POINTs at the badge on the Shoe Goblins chest.
Beaver: "And look! His badge says 'I be totally the Shoe Goblin'!"
Beaver: "It is the Shoe Goblin!"
Shoe Goblin: "Curse ye and yer clever ways! But this game be not over yet!"
[To be contd.]
Fun Facts
- Shoe stores don't serve the Shoe Goblin and Bigfoot.
- The Shoe Goblin is a member of the Shoe Bank, his credit card number is 5403 5403 5403 5403 and expires in October 2007.
- If you turn each number around 180 degrees, it would resemble "ShOE ShOE ShOE ShOE".
- At this shoe store, you have to sign a contract to buy shoes.
- However, the contract might only be required when purchasing extraordinarily large shoes, such as ones whose mere weight could destabilise the planet's orbit when improperly handled.
- More likely, it's just the IOU signature required for credit card transactions by most non-online merchants.

An official transcript is a comprehensive record of all courses completed at any of the Indiana University campuses. Any student whose University financial account is clear may obtain a copy of his or her complete academic record (official transcript) from the Registrar's Office at IU Southeast. The request may be submitted in person, via mail or via fax. In addition, if you are currently enrolled or have been enrolled within the past five years, you may request a transcript online. Transcripts may be distributed to the student or sent to a third party.
Official transcripts are printed on security paper and are embossed with the Indiana University seal and signature of the Registrar. Each transcript is provided in a "sealed" envelope. Transcripts are $8.00 each with an additional $5.00 for expedited PDF delivery. Fees can be paid by check, money order, debit card, or master/visa/discover/american express charge card. Cash is also accepted for in-person transactions.
It is a violation of the law for the university to release a copy of the transcript without the student's specific authorization. For more information, visit Confidentiality and Access to Student Records.
Click on these links for more information about grades, GPA calculations and detailed transcript explanation.
To receive a copy of your transcript, all financial obligations to the University must be clear/current. If you have any past balance due, there will be a "hold" on your record and we will not issue your transcript. If you think you might have any past debt to the university, please contact the Bursar's Office at 812-941-2335 before submitting your transcript request.
eTranscript request (eTran) is an online request service requiring payment by credit card. Transcripts are $8.00 each; we accept MasterCard/Visa/Discover/American Express (debit/credit card).
Use our new expedited delviery service, for an additional $5.00 per request.
This link will take you to the eTranscript Request Service in OneStart.
Please bring a picture ID and the $8.00 per transcript fee with you when you come in person. Complete a Transcript Request Form acquired from the Registrar's Office in US107. You may pay by check or money order made payable to Indiana University; by MasterCard/Visa/Discover/American Express charge card; debit card; or cash at the Bursar's Office located next door in room US103. We will produce your transcript usually within 1-2 business days. [Note: in times of high volume--end of a term--transcripts are produced as quickly as possible, but may exceed 1-2 business days.] After your transcript is printed, it can be mailed or held for pick up at a later time. Bring a picture ID when requesting and picking up your transcript. If a third party will be picking up your transcript, they must have your written permission to do so and have a photo ID.
Some institutions or agencies prefer the transcript be sent directly to them--not hand carried by the student. Check with them to determine if this is an issue. All transcripts are placed in a sealed envelope with the Registrar's signature affixed to the back.
To request a transcript by fax fill out the Transcript Request Form . The form must reflect your signature. Transcripts are $8.00 each. Payment must be made by MasterCard/Visa/Discover/American Express charge card ONLY. You may call the Bursar directly at 812-941-2335 and give them your credit card information rather than putting it on the request form. We are not prepared at this time to accept requests for transcripts via e-mail. Faxed requests are processed and mailed within twenty-four hours of receipt of the request.
Though IU Southeast will accept faxed requests for transcripts, we do not fax or electronically transmit official transcripts out due to the security paper used.
Fax the completed form to(812) 941-2351.
To request a transcript by mail fill out the Transcript Request Form . Send the completed form and payment to the address listed below. Transcripts are $8.00 each. Fees can be paid by check, charge or money order made payable to Indiana University. Mailed requests are processed and mailed within twenty-four hours following receipt.
Mailing Address:
Indiana University Southeast
Office of the Registrar
UCS, Room 107 Attn: Transcripts
4201 Grant Line Road
New Albany, IN 47150-6405
In some cases, students want their transcripts to be held until additional information has been added to their academic record. Examples of this include:
We ask that all requests for holds be filed no more than two weeks before the end of the term, the expected grade change, or graduation date.
If you have any questions, please contact (812)941-2233 or 2535.
If you attended any campus of the university for any period prior to 1965, your transcript is available through the Bloomington campus only. Please visit this website to request your official transcript http://registrar.indiana.edu/transcriptprior.shtml.
If you have any questions, please call (812) 941-2233 or 2535.

Step 1: What You'll Need
-Modge Podge (or the glue of your preference)
-Foam Brush / Paintbrush
-A small box of Jello (For Insta Mash)
-A Can of Something (I used corn (For Pork n' Beans))
-A Box of Mac and Cheese (Umm, for Mac and Cheese)
-Bottles of Coke (For Nuka Cola)
-The Labels Below
-A Printer
-Image Editing Software
But Where can I find X ?
- I got the Coke from the Hispanic Foods section of Smiths. It is Coke De Mexico
- Free Image editing software: IrfanView The Gimp
Edit: 6-18-2010
- I added a Sugar Bombs Label as per KneeCapHill's Request.
Since I tried to keep them printable on a standard printer it is in three pieces(front, top, and side). I also tried adding them as .pdfs which I don't know if that will help anyone or not. It's based on a 14oz (396 g) wheat chex box.
Edit: 8-24-2010
- added .pdf files of other labels per coppeis' request.
Im desperatly trying to create my own labels for some other game props
any advice ?
you are the only one on web to have that label
I don't think I'll get around to making victory. Things are kind of crazy for me right now, but if I do I'll let you know.
Consume these at your own risk, right? at least you get the bottle cap to go with the rads when you drink the cola.

Ok where is henne starting now .in his what 5th year
Henne and tannehill are nothing alike and I mean nothing. Tannehill doesnt stare down receivers, can throw accurately down field, and definirely doesnt have as good of receiving options as henbe did. Ted ginn was a threat like it or not. He ran good routes and had speed mike wallace couldnt hang with. Ted ginn led team in receptions ttht year. I hate henne comparisons so much. Tanbehill wins one on matches all day. His comeback throws are on the money. He throws with touch. He is young at the position and doesnt know when to run yet. Hes a smart qb but hes not playing loose yet. And please stop with teams have figured him out. The titans were winning by 3 tds and tannehill drove ball with no help from receivers. I counted 5 dropped passes and both his first two picks werent his fault. Fasano was interfered with and batted pass was just bad luck. Tannehill needs a deep threat, something henne had.
Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth
I honestly can't believe how many people are jumping off the Ryan Tannehill bandwagon.
Not sure if it will be after the Bills game, or this season, but you are going to have so much crow you'll have feathers coming out of your butt.
Horrible comparison with the huge difference in their upbringing.
Ted Ginn, Greg Camarillo, Brian Hartline, and Davone Bess vs Brian Hartline, Anthony Amstrong (6 games), Legedu Naanee (4 games), Davone Bess, and Jabar Gaffney (3 games)- ADVANTAGE 09'
Anthony Fasano and Joey Haynos vs Anthony Fasano and Charles Clay- ADVANTAGE 12'
Ricky Williams, Ronnie Brown, and Lousaka Polite vs Reggie Bush, Donald Thomas, Lamar Miller, and Jorvorskie Lane- ADVANTAGE 09'
Now lets look at first 9 games of Henne vs Tannehill:
Henne- 163/282, 57.8 completion percentage, 6.2 ypa, 10.8 yp completion, 1755 yards, 9/7 Td to Int Ratio, 2 games over 60 percent completion percentage
Tannehill- 165/280, 58.9 completion percentage, 7.1 ypa, 12 yp completion, 1979 yards, 5/9 Td to Int Ratio, 4 games over 60 percent completion percentage
Now, Other than td to int ratio where does Henne and Tannehill compare? Henne had time to throw, GREAT run game, and Had 3 receivers that had sure hands and one receiver who was a matchup problem. Like it or not, Ted Ginn is definitely a match-up problem. Long speed, NO CORNER can keep up with him so you have to cover him over top. That took a safety out of the box, which opened up underneath passes and run game. Proof of this is in our run game production and DAVONE BESS having a career year out of slot with 750 plus yards receiving.
Now, Please compare the two quarterbacks! For the rest of their career, I hope Tannehill is compared to "CHAD- The Robot- HENNE".
And for gods sake don't give me the 6-3 record. Henne was not the reason for the 6-3 record. Our run game and defense were results of that record.
Kendall Langford, Joey Porter, Jason Taylor, Cameron Wake, Randy Starks, Jason Ferguson, Paul Soliai, Karlos Dansby, Channing Crowder, Yeremiah Bell, Gibril Wilson, Will Allen, Vontae Davis, Sean Smith, Jason Allen, and Akin Ayodele vs our entire unit now?

I need a countdown for 3 hours and for it to repeat.
I have a demo site I've built and I have set up a cron job to reset the database and file structure every 3 hours. I want to be able to let my viewers know when the demo site willl reset by giving them a countdown too.
Can anyone provide the code required to get this done?

You just need to have whatever script is doing the reset to make a file, of whatever type you can use, that notes the time the reset occurred, and to say when the next one will occur. Then when a visitor comes to the site, the index page will reference that file so your visitors will know.

Dr. Richard Pratt serves as Adjunct Professor at RTS Orlando. He taught full-time at RTS Jackson and RTS Orlando for more than 20 years. Dr. Pratt chaired the Old Testament Department at RTS Orlando for several years and now occasionally teaches Old Testament courses.
Dr. Pratt is the president and founder of Third Millennium Ministries, an organization committed to equip church leaders in their own lands by creating a multimedia seminary curriculum in five major languages. During international mission efforts early in his teaching career, Dr. Pratt observed the hunger of foreign pastors and ministry leaders for theological education as well as the lack of resources to obtain such education. He developed the conviction that any person with a desire to learn more about the Bible should be given that opportunity in their own language and at no cost to them. Third Millennium Ministries produces online video courses on various biblical and theological topics in English, Arabic, Mandarin Chinese, Russian and Spanish. Dr. Pratt is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church in America. He has served as a pastor and traveled extensively to evangelize and teach.
Dr. Pratt's research interests and numerous publications relate to Old Testament theology, interpreting biblical literature, apologetics and the integration of biblical and theological studies with practical Christian living. He served as general editor of the Spirit of the Reformation Study Bible (Zondervan, 2003).
Students appreciate Dr. Pratt's passion for bringing in-depth biblical education to Christian leaders around the world and his willingness to challenge various trends among Western evangelicals.

Childress Has Record Night To Lead East Tennessee Past Western Carolina, 91-77
Saturday, February 16, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (Feb. 16, 2002) - Dimeco Childress (Columbia, Tenn.) made his final game in Memorial Center a memorable one, as the senior guard scored 42 points in his final appearance in the Mini-Dome to lead the Buccaneers to a 91-77 win over Western Carolina in men's Southern Conference basketball action. The win was the sixth in a row for the Bucs. After a closely contested first 10 minutes of the game East Tennessee State (16-9, 9-5 SoCon) made the first move in the contest. Leading 17-14 at the 11:39 mark, the Bucs went on a 21-9 run that gave them a 38-23 advantage with 5:21 left in the first half. Fourteen of the points came off the hot hand of Childress, who canned three treys in the run. ETSU then held its lead the rest of the first half and took a 45-31 lead into the locker room. Turnovers plagued the Catamounts in the first half, as they coughed it up 15 times, leading to 19 points for the Bucs. Western Carolina (11-14, 5-9 SoCon) could not make much of a dent in the ETSU lead in the second half until late in the game. With the Bucs holding a 70-55 lead with 6:22 left, WCU's Kelvin Martin got hot. He scored nine points of a 14-4 Catamount run, including hitting a pair of three-pointers. When Martin hit a jumper with 2:20 to play, Western found itself down by only five points at 74-69. That would prove to be as close as the Cats would get, however, as ETSU hit 11 straight free throws in the final two minutes and Western missed on six straight shots, enabling the Bucs to pull away. East Tennessee State shot 46 percent to Western's 42 percent. It was a turnover filled game, with Western turning it over 31 times and the Bucs 24 more. The Catamounts held a slim edge on the boards, 39-38. Childress' 42 points are the third most by a Buccaneer, tying him with Tom Chilton who recorded 42 points against Middle Tennessee in the 1959-60 season. Childress also set a new school record for field goal attempts in a game with 27. He finished his day shooting 16-of-27, including going 5-of-11 from behind the three-point line. His 42 points ties him with Jason Conley of VMI for the most by a SoCon player this season. In addition to Childress, Zakee Wadood (Lonoke, Ark.) had 13 points and nine rebounds, while Ryan Lawson (Rogersville, Tenn.) and Tiras Wade (Tampa, Fla.) added 11 points. Wade also added eight assists. Western Carolina was led by Martin's 23 points. Cory Largent added 12 points and seven rebounds, with Kelvin Wylie adding 11 points. East Tennessee State will travel to Furman for its next game, taking on the Paladins on Monday at 7:00 p.m. Western Carolina will play at Wofford on Monday at 7:00 p.m.
