By By Staff Sgt. MATTAca,!E+MEADOWS 4th IBCT, 10th Mtn DivJuly 20, 2009
FORT POLK, La. -- The Army has a new armor strategy for protecting Soldiers and 4th Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division became the first unit fielded with these new up-armored vehicles June 16.
Long-Term Armor Strategy, LTAS, is the new up-armored variant in the Army's Family of medium tactical vehicles, FMTV, said 1st Lt. Darrell Lyles, commander, Forward Support Company E, 94th Brigade Support Battalion.
Primarily, LTAS vehicles are used for combat logistics patrols or re-supply missions, and 94th BSB received 13 LTAS FMTV trucks and 11 trailers, he said.
"I think it is a great step. The Army is definitely looking at the safety of Soldiers as a whole," said Lyles. "I think my distro (distribution) guys are very appreciative and they are taking a lot of pride in the fact that we are getting some of the new technology out there."
The Army has made safety improvements, including upgrades to cab windows and the armor itself, said Lyles. "Any safety upgrade is a ... boost of confidence in Soldiers' abilities to do missions and, in the end, leads to better longevity for Soldiers mission success."
Gary Livingston, of the Project Office for Medium Tactical Vehicles, said the Office of the U.S. Army Deputy Chief of Staff and Forces Command designated 4th BCT as the first Army brigade to receive LTAS upgraded vehicles. Many factors affected their decision in selecting the Patriot Brigade to receive the LTAS' first fielding, including the brigade having recently redeploying from Iraq.
Many of the Patriot Brigade's left-behind vehicles when the unit deployed were up-armored then sent to theater, commented Livingston. "So the unit comes back, they need trucks and we are here to provide them some trucks," he said.
"These trucks, I am sure they are going to really support accomplishing (4th BCT's) mission," said Livingston. "They are great vehicles. We get good feedback from the field on these (trucks), so we will continue to march, developing future trucks to field to the units. They are the best vehicles in the world. We hear nothing but good things on our FMTVs."
Lt. Col. Anthony Coston, commander of 94th BSB, said Soldiers anywhere can be selected to receive new equipment. But when they are equipped with what they "need to go to war," they should take a lot of pride in ownership, he said.
"We are excited that we got the first opportunity to draw them (LTAS FMTVs) and start testing and using them," said Coston. "(It's important) that Soldiers can own their equipment, put their names in the windshield, take pride and 'armorall' the tires. You never wash a rental truck, so you like to take ownership when you get it. They are excited to do that."
Coston referred to the FMTVs as his unit's workhorse. And as the brigade support battalion, 94th BSB supports 3,500 Soldiers from 4th BCT.
"This is the workhorse of what we do, trucks, for transporting supplies, equipment, personnel, rations, food, ammunition, water; everything that the brigade needs to be sustained in combat, we deliver," explained Coston. "These vehicles are the ones that do a lot of the heavy lifting for us."
Tracy Reno, systems manager for Theater Army Command's Materiel Fielding Team, said the LTAS new generation of FMTVs is an upgrade from what they have been producing since the 1990s. Vehicles have been getting better and better, and with the wars on terrorism in Afghanistan and Iraq, TACOM has had a need to up-grade its armor systems to keep Soldiers safe, he said.
Army up-armored vehicle improvements have gone from an initial bolt-on rack armor system to light signature armored cabs and now the new generation of the LTAS, said Reno.
"With these variants of vehicles ... they come partially armored, and then we are able to just adapt and put a B-kit armored system on them," explained Reno. "That will meet the requirements that we are trying to give our Soldiers for protection over there."
Improvements in LTAS vehicles include going from an air-over hydraulic system to an electrical system which helps distribute some of the load when raising and lowering the cab, a different suspension system, the armor and air conditioning.
"One of the biggest things that we have had, especially with Fort Polk weather and with Iraq and Afghanistan weather, is we finally put an air conditioning system in the trucks," commented Reno. "And that seems to be one of the Soldiers' favorite (upgrades)."
"We increasingly tried in every production year to make the truck a better variant for the Soldiers," Reno continued.
"It is all based on their feedback from the field."
Reno said the bottom line in fielding improved vehicles such as LTAS FMTV is trying to give Soldiers a product that enables them to conduct missions without worrying about anything else. It seems to be working, he said.
"As we have learned how our battles have changed -- from how we fight, where we fight and when we fight -- we have made a transformation from the jungles of Vietnam to the urban cities of Iraq and the mountainous terrains of Afghanistan," commented Reno. "So we are always looking at having to find that median of best performance for the buck, if you will. We continually strive to give the Soldiers that vehicle they need to accomplish their mission, and it is an ever-changing process."

Running Time: 136
Director: Alex Devoe
Company: West Coast Productions Platinum
Cast: Ayana Angel, Misty Mason, John E Depth, Brian Pumper, Tina Marie, Monique (I), Adina Jewel, Sledge Hammer, Mya Mason, Wesley Pipes, Julian St. Jox
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
All black. All anal. All nasty.
Black Ass Candy gives a lot of bang for the buck. Clocking in at over two hours of extra-nasty hardcore footage, fans of all-black, all-anal smut are definitely going to enjoy this one.
The hardcore begins almost instantly as big-boobed Ayana Angel and Misty Mason get on their knees to spit all over Sledge Hammer's cock. These two nymphs have some solid chemistry and work together to keep the hot, nasty action at its peak throughout the scene.
Tina Marie shows off her solid round booty to Wesley Pipes and John E. Depth in the next scene. She climbs on top of each cock, cowgirl style, and bounces it dance floor-style, despite the fact that her tight box can only swallow about half of the length of those ultra-long poles.
Mya Mason goes one-on-one with Brian Pumper. Her little 5 foot 1 inch, 90-pound. frame somehow manages to take nearly all of his thick cock up her butt - in multiple, exhausting positions. And in the next scene, Adina Jewel happily gets stalked then molested by two masked intruders. She takes both cocks in her snatch, simultaneously. Then she gets d.p.'d.

Description of Research Expertise
Dr. Christie's career is focused on translational research studies of the risks, pathogenesis, treatment, and outcomes of acute lung injury in the transplant and non-transplant human populations. His research integrates new knowledge generated from bench studies with epidemiology approaches in well-phenotyped, large human populations to generate new definitions of human syndromes, improved diagnostics and prognostics, and targeted therapy approaches in advanced lung diseases and critical illness.
Dr. Christie is the founder of the lung transplant outcomes group (LTOG), which is a multicentered cohort study the etiology and pathogenesis of acute lung injury following lung transplantation (termed primary graft dysfunction). Active LTOG research themes focus on the mechanisms of clinical factors that elevate PGD risk, including donor smoke exposure, recipient obesity and body composition, pulmonary hypertension, alterations in lung microbiome, and autoimmunity to lung collagens. His multidisciplinary lung transplant research focuses on genetics, innate immunity, regulatory T-cells, innate lymphoid cell (ILC) populations in the lung, ischemia reperfusion injury, inflammation, and autoimmunity.

I do remember reading a thread on here where a vacationing SUPer dropped in on a local and dinged his face and then went to the hospital with him and paid for his damages. I do wonder though as to where she was swimming though.

Your right on Fitz.
\nSurfing is a HAZARDOUS sport. The use of your surf board with a leash that is properly attached according to instructions found at www.npsurf.com is done at your own risk. The suppliers of this product are not responsible for any property damage or personal injury caused by any use, misuse, abuse or irresponsible use of this product.

My question is why anyone would surf without a leash at a fairly populated beach. It's seems like you would be asking for trouble. I hate when swimmers get in the way where I am surfing, but they have the same right to be there as I do. I just try to keep my distance as much as possible, and keep that leash strapped on securely.

What if the board hit another surfer in the face?
\nYou take a chance and get in the water you better pay att! Is she going to sue the state if she steps on glass or a 2x4 from an old house hits her? This is Texas/the Gulf,,, and we get hit with all kind of **** that comes down the brazos river. she is more lucky then my friend that was hit with a 2x4 with a rusty nail in it that stabbed him in the gut when he eat **** on the shorebreak! You take a chance and get in the nasty Gulf water you better pay att! If you don't know where your swimming,,don't go swimming there!
\nMost people around here don't swim with the surfers and why the hell take a swim in the nasty gulf of mexico where there are people surfing rather than the pool at your hotel? I could understand this better if it were a jetski or boat to close to people swimming, but is there a law that states surfboards, skim boards and boggie boards must be 1000ft from anyone.

Anyone notice that the accident happened in 2011? But she only filed the lawsuit now? I agree that the surfer screwed up and is liable for medical expenses. But what's with the delay?

What if a shark attacked her? Who could she sue then? What if the surfer broke his neck while wiping out to avoid hitting touron lady? Could he then sue her? It's all retarded, SWIMMERS/BEACH GOERS SHOULD BE LESS OBLIVIOUS AND ENTITLED. Enter the ocean at your own mother f*cking risk.

If you hurt someone you are liable and can be sued. Take it from me I sell general liability insurance for a living. Now if a leash fails or the swimmer violates a no swimming zone the it could be different. Perfect on land example for liability. I backed out of my driveway and hit a car parked just beside my driveway, not blocking it but in a no parking zone. The side of my back bumper and door scraped thier front bumper as I backed out. The owner of the car (who was visiting ) and the owner of the home were pissed and screaming at me that I was responsible. I called the local Police who informed the owner that she was liable for my damage and wrote her a ticket for parking in a no parking zone. Now here I clearly was the one who caused the damage, she was in the house and not in her car, I backed out with out looking to my left as this is a no parking zone and there should not be anyone there and yet she became liable since she was in violation of the law.
Lee check out this shark law suit:
And one saying city is not liable:

\nKind of makes you wonder, was the surfer cool or did he play the douche card? How bad's the lady's face?
\nDon't know, leashes suck, somedays you need em, some you don't. Accidents will happen. If you surf, you will get hurt 100% guaranteed. It might be someone else's fault, it might be your own, just hope it's not too bad. Lady just didn't know that. Now she does, bummer.

What the ocean is turning into a ski resort. Forget that. So a true local cant dodge me cuz I was in the wrong spot?... Example skiing down the run and a kid comes out of woods in the air and either I knock him out of way or catch him and come to stop. I did later. Dad screams at me . For saving his kids asc.... I said u all didn't abide by the code and apologize or get beat down in front of ur kid. Ski resorts r filled with this **** n lawyer are scooping it up. If they can't see people surfing then they r dumb askesss. Rich people only think they r right. If we choose to surf without a leash generally it's for a reason. Cuz we don't want to drown in a tough place we know. Look at ski resort lawsuits. U buy a pass to ski public land as soon as u buy they r off the hook. Last time I looked ocean was free. Sure good karma is, is good karma. Like my mama said stupid is what stupid does

Leashes can be dangerous.

\nPeople really do surf differently if they think their leash means that they arent going to be swimming all the way in.
\nBut yeah sure i use a leash when circumstances dictate its safer to do so.

And no I've never heard of one of the most famous big wave surfers in history, who drowned (most likely by having his leash tangle on rocks) at one of the most famous big wave spots on the planet and had massive media coverage. Glad you let me know it was Mark Foo, here I've been thinking it was Captain Kangaroo that dronwed that day.

if I am ever at fault in something like this, I will just calmly explain that I am on vacation from New Zealand and that my name is Roy Stewart. I will also explain that it could not possibly have been my board because it is far too superior to injure a human. Simple physics (and ZEN!)
\nNot! I'd run like hell. Who hit you?

So true, got a new DK board recently, not sure on where I want to plug it, so my last few sessions were leash-less...definitely refreshing, now I'm honestly in no rush to plug it.

i dint think it is as cut and dry as you think fitz. On the surface it seems like the surfer is at fault but if this was a designated surfing area then IMO the woman was in the wrong.

There are no designated surf areas. I believe the incident took place on the seawall in Galveston. There are two main points where we have piers that most of us surf because it holds the current and has better developed sandbars. This creates a conflict because the attractions in those areas also encourage the tourons to set up shop for the day even though there is another 8 miles of beach with easy access.
\nThe part that is hard for me to grasp is that Galveston is very shallow with no significant drop off. In order to be in chest deep water you have to be past the third sand bar. Most surfing is done beyond the third sand bar which is a good 75-100 yards from the shoreline. So if you see surfers out there and you swim out to the desired break (which is what she said she did "Reynolds said she was enjoying a day at the beach and went into the water to watch her friend's child who wanted to swim. Long was surfing in the same area.") at what point do you have to assume responsibility for your own safety.
\nMy guess is she allowed a child to get into a dangerous situation and was paying more attention to him than her surroundings and caused and unsafe situation for everyone else....and then of course blamed someone else.

These free utilities can prevent or cure trouble caused by viruses, worms, spyware, keyloggers, and other kinds of unwanted software.
Whether you're keeping your PC free from malware or cleaning up a PC that's already infected, one or more of these tools should get the job done!
Most Windows users probably don't know that Microsoft offers an array of free security tools. Some are included with Windows, others available by download.
At one end of the spectrum is a simple, lightweight utility — the Malicious Software Removal Tool — that protects against some of the most common malware in circulation. At the other end of the spectrum is a heavy-duty system-scanning tool — Windows Defender Offline — that operates from its own bootable medium. It operates completely outside the installed Windows, allowing the scanner to find and remove some forms of malware that standard Windows-based security tools might miss.
As is all too common with Microsoft, some of these tools (and their features) are somewhat difficult to find. Some tools are poorly explained; some tools' functions overlap with those of other tools. Two of these tools even have the same name — but are totally different products!
This article should sort out the confusion; it briefly explains what the six tools are, what types of malware they target, how they work, how to access and use them, and other important facts. You'll also find links to more detailed information — and, of course, links to the free downloads.
Let's dive in!

In a dream, within a dream....
Krystal ignored Frost for the most part. She responded to important questions, but usually just did not respond. Krystal found herself slowing down a bit to run with Beserker as they went along. He may be a bit stupid and slow, but at least he was better than Frost. They ran in silence for a while, then Krystal dropped back out of hearing range of Frost. Even just being near her made Krystal irritable.
Beserker panted trying to catch his breath as Krystal slowed her pace to allow him to rest a bit. The plains stretched forth in front of them, and a wind blew in their faces, weak but cold. Beserker spoke after a moment, "So why dont you two like each other?"
Krystal sighed and though a moment before answering. "She is too direct, her methods crude. Especially with torture. She insists on inflicting pain upon another pokemon even if she knows that they dont have any information, or wont give it up. Completely wasteful. i have nothing against torture itself, in fact I am fine with the concept and am fine with doing it myself, but I would like to think that my methods are a bit more...elegant. Why just kill them when you can at least try to bend them to your will. You dont even have to read minds to do it, anybody can put a small seed of doubt into someone. Once they doubt what they believe in, it can be easier to influence them into doing what you want. For some reason, Frost seems to enjoy the pain more than the information the prisoner may have locked away in their mind."
Beserker just shook his head, "Seems a bit too complicated for me..."
Krystal just smiled, "Well, torture never has been your strong point, has it? Maybe you should just stick with bashing heads together, although I am sure that you could scare information out of most prisoners with just your size."
The three pokemon came to a small hill, and came down on the other side to see a large expanse of water stretching before them. The three observed for a moment, then Beserker said, "Welcom to the Lake of Lull."
They stood for a moment, the cold breeze off the lake cooling them down. After the run it was nice, but after a bit, a chill started to develope in Krystal. She pushed her internal temperature up a little bit to ward off the chill. It seemed like the lake stretched on forever, but by squinting, Krystal could just make out the opposite bank, a faint fuzzy line on the horizon. They would have to travel around it to reach Eternity. It would be much faster if they had a boat, or could swim, but Beserker would sink like a rock, and Krystal had an obvious aversion to water, so swiming was out of the question. Still, Krystal expected a comment about it from Frost. Before Frost could say anything, Krystal spoke up, "We better move out. We're wasting time."

Where Has the Magic Gone?
The New York Times plaintively ponders global warmism's loss of credibility.
This lead paragraph from the New York Times is just priceless:
Last month hundreds of environmental activists crammed into an auditorium here to ponder an anguished question: If the scientific consensus on climate change has not changed, why have so many people turned away from the idea that human activity is warming the planet?
Imagine popular children's fables retold by Times reporter Elisabeth Rosenthal: Anguished weavers gathered to ponder the sudden shift in fashion by subjects who only recently thought the emperor was wearing a splendid suit of clothes. If the boy still says there is a wolf, why have so many farmers turned away from the idea that the sheep are in danger?
Rosenthal reports from London, because the "shift in public opinion" has been especially "striking" in Britain, where "climate change" was once a "popular priority":
But since then, the country has evolved into a home base for a thriving group of climate skeptics who have dominated news reports in recent months, apparently convincing many that the threat of warming is vastly exaggerated.
The Times story could be titled "What's the Matter With Many?" Not only do opinion polls in Britain and elsewhere show a significant drop in public credulity about climate alarmism, but newly elected Prime Minister David Cameron "was 'strangely muted' on the issue in a recent pre-election debate, as The Daily Telegraph put it, though it had previously been one of his passions." And then there's this:
London's Science Museum recently announced that a permanent exhibit scheduled to open later this year would be called the Climate Science Gallery--not the Climate Change Gallery as had previously been planned.
That last bit is just an example of the euphemism treadmill at work. We're old enough to remember the "greenhouse effect," which became "global warming," which became "climate change," which now apparently has become "climate science." Just as "retarded" was a clinical term until it developed connotations of mockery and insult, so each term for greenhouseeffectglobalwarmingclimatechangeclimatescience comes to connote dishonest alarmism--because that is what GEGWCCCS is all about.
Savor the plaintive condescension of this passage:
Here in Britain, the change has been driven by the news media's intensive coverage of a series of climate science controversies unearthed and highlighted by skeptics since November. These include the unauthorized release of e-mail messages from prominent British climate scientists at the University of East Anglia that skeptics cited as evidence that researchers were overstating the evidence for global warming and the discovery of errors in a United Nations climate report.
Two independent reviews later found no evidence that the East Anglia researchers had actively distorted climate data, but heavy press coverage had already left an impression that the scientists had schemed to repress data. Then there was the unusually cold winter in Northern Europe and the United States, which may have reinforced a perception that the Earth was not warming.
Skepticism, the Times implies, is a sign that people are foolish and easily misled. But the opposite interpretation is closer to the truth: Those who refuse to accept outlandish claims based merely on an appeal to authority are exercising intelligence and common sense.
Walter Russell Mead, blogging for The American Interest, notes in addition that most of the information in the Times story is old news. The lead, after all, concerns a conference held last month, even though it was almost next month by the time the Times published its report. Mead continues:
It turns out, however, that by Times standards a report on a conference from last month is a late breaking newsflash. The main evidence that ace reporter Elizabeth [sic] Rosenthal has tracked down for her story about changing public sentiment comes from a BBC opinion poll from February.
The last I looked, we were approaching the end of May. This is deliberative journalism at its best: only ninety swift days between a BBC poll and the time that the New York Times thinks you are ready to hear about it.
Mead notes that Rosenthal also cites a German poll from March and a survey of Conservative British political candidates from January. With just a touch of sarcasm, he adds: "Give thanks that you live in the information age, when the news of the day, properly vetted and screened by layers of professional news editors, will be delivered to you as soon as it's safely matured. . . . Stories this big and this rich need to be properly aged."
Oh well, it could be worse. The Associated Press bureau in Katmandu is even further behind the news than the Times is, as evidenced by this dispatch:
A Nepalese Sherpa who climbed Mount Everest for a record 20th time said Tuesday that the melting of glacier ice along its slopes due to global warming is making it increasingly difficult to climb the peak.
Right. Because climbing the world's highest mountain is supposed to get easier as you get older!

The Unpresident
President Obama met yesterday with Republican senators, and the senators emerged from the meeting highly critical of the president, Politico reports:
Senators and other sources inside the meeting described the gathering as "testy" and "direct"--and Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) accused Obama of acting two-faced by asking for GOP support on regulatory reform only to push forward with a bill supported mainly by Democrats. Others felt that the meeting may have made already tense relations between the two parties even worse.
"The more he talked, the more he got upset," Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) said. "He needs to take a valium before he comes in and talks to Republicans and just calm down, and don't take anything so seriously. If you disagree with someone, it doesn't mean you're attacking their motives--and he takes it that way and tends then to lecture and then gets upset." . . .
Bill Burton, a White House spokesman who attended the meeting, later told reporters that the meeting was "civil in tone" and not as contentious as Republicans have made it out to be.
But Obama's own account, as reported by the Associated Press, seems closer to the GOP senators' than to Burton's:
Obama on Tuesday said Republicans have to help him solve big issues like energy and immigration if the country is to move forward.
Speaking at a series of fundraisers for Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer, Obama chided Republicans for sitting on the sidelines and putting politics ahead of the needs of the American people.
"There are members of their base who think if somebody even smiles at me, they think, 'You're a traitor, you smiled at Obama,"' the president said.
In a testy, closed-door meeting between Obama and GOP lawmakers on Capitol Hill earlier in the day, some Republicans accused Obama of being inauthentic in his calls for bipartisanship, an accusation Obama bristled at Tuesday night.
"There's gotta be some give on the other side, particularly when you drove the car into the ditch. We can't just go back to business as usual," he said.
These public comments seem quite consistent with the behind-closed-doors Obama described by the Republicans. The public comments, of course, were made to a group of prospective partisan donors, and you can see why such statements would appeal to such an audience. But saying that the other party "drove the car into a ditch"--whatever the merits of this assertion, and whatever its political utility--is just unpresidential, the sort of thing that should be left to the vice president and other surrogates. For the president himself to say such things shows a distinct lack of class, and a lack of respect for the office with which he has been entrusted.

The Shikse Incident
The city of Toronto has released its 2009 "hate crime" statistics, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency reports: "Jews were the top victims, with 52 incidents, followed by LBGT (lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders), with 26 incidents, and blacks, 24 incidents."
No big surprises there, but there were some rather unusual groups showed up further down the list:
The Nazi and non-Jewish Shikse, along with "police," each were a victim in a single incident to which police responded last year.
The shikse incident occurred when the disapproving neighbor of a Jewish man who was dating a non-Jewish woman smashed the woman's window, the Canadian Jewish News reported. . . .
Acting Inspector Steve Irwin of the Toronto Police Service defended the inclusion of the unorthodox categories, telling the Canadian Jewish News that "Nazis" and "shikses" were "affected by hate motivation." He added that "they were targeted as identifiable groups."
Bernie Farber of the Canadian Jewish Congress objects: "[It's] almost silly to take groups out of thin air and decide to make them victims," he tells the wire service. "It makes anti-hate laws look absurd." It's hard to disagree when it comes to hate crimes against "Nazis."
But can Farber argue with a straight face that an act of vandalism is a hate crime if it's motivated by disapproval of non-Jews' dating Jews but not if it's motivated by disapproval of Jews' dating non-Jews? "The shikse incident" makes hate-crime laws look absurd either way.

Pivoting to Jobs
"It seems that the Census Bureau may be playing games," reports John Crudele of the New York Post:
Last week, one of the millions of workers hired by Census 2010 to parade around the country counting Americans blew the whistle on some statistical tricks.
The worker, Naomi Cohn, told The Post that she was hired and fired a number of times by Census. Each time she was hired back, it seems, Census was able to report the creation of a new job to the Labor Department. . . .
Each month Census gives Labor a figure on the number of workers it has hired. That figure goes into the closely followed monthly employment report Labor provides. For the past two months the hiring by Census has made up a good portion of the new jobs.
Labor doesn't check the Census hiring figure or whether the jobs are actually new or recycled. It considers a new job to have been created if someone is hired to work at least one hour a month.
One hour! A month! So, if a worker is terminated after only one hour and another is hired in her place, then a second new job can apparently be reported to Labor.
Meanwhile, The Altantic's Marc Ambinder speculates as to why Rep. Joe Sestak is evading requests for elaboration of his claim that the White House offered him a high-ranking job if he would drop out of the Senate primary against Sen. Arlen Specter, which Sestak won last week:
My gut feeling here is that Sestak is holding this alleged proffer of a job over the White House's head to try and make sure that the West Wing does everything it can to support his candidacy. That's bothersome, because it means that someone believes they can use an allegation to divert the attention and resources of the seat of government.
We're not sure this quite makes sense. Sestak's evasions, after all, make him appear to be in league with a possibly corrupt White House, which both is bad for his image as an outsider with integrity and diminishes the value of White House support. Besides, why would Sestak be so eager for White House support? Gov. Jon Corzine, Gov. Creigh Deeds, Sen. Martha Coakley and Democratic Senate nominee Arlen Specter can all tell him how much that's worth.
But Crudele's report suggests a whole other way of looking at the Sestak scandal. He now has a job as a representative, he aspires to a job as a senator, and the White House apparently has offered him at least one other job. That's three jobs created right there!

2008 Maverick Moment of the Day
posted by August 19 at 9:05 AMon
Here's a long, interesting story from a writer for the Phoenix New Times who is decidedly not part of the McCain fan club. She's been on the McCain beat forever:
I've been a writer and editor at New Times for 15 years. For much of that time, I wrote about Arizona politics, which is to say that I wrote about John McCain. It's still odd to see the guy in the spotlight, because for quite a while, I was pretty much the only one covering him.
I never did fall for him in the way reporters fall for politicians, probably because he wasn't much to fall for back in the early 1990s. In those days, McCain was still rehabilitating the image he'd later sell to the national media. He was known then for cavorting in the Bahamas with Charlie Keating, rather than for fighting for campaign finance reform and limited government spending…

He reports: - (without-gcing (test n)) always works; suddenly both CPU cores are busy. - (defparameter *x* (test n)) (without-gcing (print *x*) nil) crashes or produces wrong results. - If I don't call svd it doesn't crash.

Internally in GSL it wouldn't surprise me that something is malloced, but I guess you are asking if on the Lisp side there is a foreign allocation.

Program of Freshman Seminars in the Residential Colleges
Clayton K. Marsh
Executive Committee
Joshua T. Katz, Classics
Howard A. Stone, Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering
Shirley M. Tilghman, Molecular Biology, Woodrow Wilson School
Robert J. Wuthnow, Sociology
In 2015-16, the Program of Freshman Seminars in the Residential Colleges will offer approximately 70 seminars on a wide variety of special topics. The seminars are designed to introduce freshmen to the excitement and challenge of working in a small, discussion-oriented setting with a faculty member and fellow students on a topic of special interest. While freshman seminars are not required, they count as regular courses and may fulfill distribution requirements.
The seminars are open to all freshmen, but enrollment is limited to 12 to 15 per seminar. A full roster of seminars to be offered in a given year will be available on the program website in July.
The application process, which is described on the program website, typically begins in July.

This a bug report (I think):
In order to have a proper description on Facebook of my blog, I entered in Menu/SEO/Social and under the field "Frontpage settings" I inserted a short description + one image.
But surprise, when I post something about my site (homepage) on Facebook, the image is ok but the description is wrong, not the words from the "Description" field of Social module.
Checking my site on Object Debugger of Facebook, I discovered that the image is the same (so the modification was recognized by FCB), but the words from "Description" field are not anywhere. The row "og:description" contain a decription from my last post. So is a communication problem between Yoast and Facebook.
I think is very simple to repair this bug! I wait the update! Is very important for all the users!
Thank you,

Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), provides insight on where tuition is rising fastest, and shares her story of graduating from a commuter college that cost $50 per semester.
Student loan debt now totals more than $1.2 trillion.

"Student loan debt is crushing individuals, and a drag on the economy," she says.
President Obama's expansion of the student loan program doesn't target the root cause of the problem, AEI's Andrew Kelly told CNBC.
A new report shows millennial men are putting more money away than women the same age. Karen Wimbish, Wells Fargo Retail retirement director, and Dan Schawbel, founder of Millennial Branding, discusses how the recession has impacted millennial and their money.
President Obama is expected to change the rules as it applies to student loans and debt. CNBC's John Harwood reports the president will use his executive authority to expand eligibility.

Jeff Snider, Alhambra Investment Partners, says the growth in auto and student loan debt are the best ways to create systemic poverty in the U.S.
A record high number of American households have student loan debt and those households have far more debt overall than college grads without student loan debt. But as CNBC's Allison Linn reports, it still pays to go college.

third brake light leak
I am the second owner of my Ram. Same issue has been recurring. Took to a glass place this morn, the showed me where water was coming in on the inside and recommended I go to a body man. And that this is a reaccuring issue with these trucks. Went to my body guy, he said, here's what's going on, and that "those guys" did not want to fool with it. He can fix it, as all of you recommended, but of course he will be upcharging me for "out-sourcing" to ANOTHER glass company. I bought this truck from a company that sold "work trucks"- the last fools that owned it sealed the upper brake light with silicone AND around the rear window!!! And I'm sure all of you know what silicone does ! Holds water and promotes rust on metal over time! These folks are idiots!!! Now I will have to have the silicone professionally removed, possibly the window-which is apt to break upon removing, to have it properly re-inserted and have a new gasket put around the third brake light of course!!
I asked my body guy why this is not a recall issue, he said, "because it does not pertain to safety". How sweet of Dodge to have this issue for years and continue to advertise their "tough" trucks and win awards!
I planned on keeping this thing until the wheels fall off! But if it rusts from the inside out, I'm screwed!! Geez!
So glad I'm not alone here and that I have found this great forum!! Thank you! If anypne has any more advice, feel free to inform me. This "somewhat mechanically inclined female" loves to learn!
Thank you again!

How Dan Barber and Martha Stewart Had Their Big Creative Breakthroughs
"It was revelatory. I felt like I'd never tasted an egg before."
"It was revelatory. I felt like I'd never tasted an egg before."
There are reports of "bruises, burns, and welts."
It's worth $353 million.
@TwitterFood says it'll be a one-stop shop for "all the best of food and restaurant culture on Twitter."
Pastries! "Martha's Blend" coffee! Fancy teas!
If Martha can't get it right, neither can we.
Silk suits, Air Jordans, strapless dresses, and more sartorial choices from last night's big event.
"Rough like a rustic burlap wedding invitation."
Are you a 55- to 70-year-old who likes perfect cakes, media talk, and rap music?
"She refuses to care whether we all want to be her besties."
This lawsuit's getting nasty.
The store's dropping his cookware line from 800 stores.
The show follows a "highly disorganized former party girl" who joins a cult of arts and crafts.
The cuts are no doubt precise and very, very ornate.
The domestic goddess is being sued by Macy's for consorting with JCPenney.
Adria said 'What is this?' Bowien said, 'It's the King of Beers.' And Adria said, 'Okay.'
The girls go at it again.
"It was a great week, although I lost a few pounds."
'Martha Stewart's Cooking School' will debut this fall.
Conservationists used to think foraging would die off with the old-timers, but Stewart had to go and make the movement all mainstream.

Lensman Bobby Farrelly is tinkering with the idea of stepping back behind the camera for a sequel to his 1994 comedy classic Dumb & Dumber.
Speaking to Moviehole, the filmmaker said consider reviving the franchise, if he can enlist stars Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, who played incredibly dumb friends Harry and Lloyd in the original film.
"[Dumb and Dumber] has run a bunch of times on TV in the States, and kids will come up and they'll be able to quote lines from that — lines that I've long forgotten," he said. "If we could get those two guys back together, Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels that might be a worthwhile sequel… We're starting to think about what those two dimwits would be doing 20 years later in life."
The flick already spawned the 2003 prequel Dumb & Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd.

Weale and Woodbridge, both of whom competed at the London 2012 Olympics as well as Beijing 2008, placed 16th and 23rd respectively individually while Cooke ranked 22nd in Drzonkow. Combined together that placed them fifth in the team competition, a day after Samantha Murray, Mhairi Spence and Kate French took Britain's medal tally to three with gold in the women's equivalent. Woodbridge was as high a third after clocking 1:56.19minutes in the pool, his best time since Beijing 2008 while at that stage as a team Britain were also in bronze-medal position. Together the trio were still third after the ride however they fell to fifth after the combined run-shoot as Hungary took gold with France claiming silver and Italy bronze. The European Championships come to a close on Wednesday with Britain's last remaining hopefuls being Cooke and double gold medallist French in the mixed relay.

No amount of adversity could stand between the Simon Kenton Pioneers and the Eighth Region baseball championship.
Not lightning, not rain, not sleep deprivation, not even an old foe that had previously had the Pioneer's number. All of the obstacles just made the victory that much sweeter.
"We felt like the cards were stacked against us," head coach Troy Roberts said. "We were a tired group, both physically and mentally."
After earning a rematch against Collins, the team that ended the Pioneers' 2013 season, Simon Kenton had to exercise patient vengeance. The game started late, then was delayed due to lightning with Simon Kenton leading 5-1 in the top of the sixth inning. The Pioneers finished off the victory the following day, then had to play again a day later for the regional title. That game, against Anderson County, was twice delayed. By the time Simon Kenton rallied for the extra inning win, 3-1 in nine, the sense of relief overwhelmed the feeling of accomplishment.
"I know I was drained after the game Thursday night," said Roberts, who spent much of his week keeping his team balanced through the seemingly endless interruptions. "We tried to make the delays seem like positive things. We tried to keep the players loose. We let them be kids."
Whatever Roberts and his staff did, it worked. The players were allowed to mingle with their classmates and families during the delays. They were allowed to joke around and talk about things other than baseball. It seemed to help.
"We came out and played relaxed," said Roberts. "Our players were comfortable and seemed focused."
Anderson County made defensive play after defensive play. No matter how well the Pioneers hit the ball, they were unable to score more than one run through eight innings.
"It seemed like no matter what we did, they were going to stop it," said Roberts. "Our kids kept it positive. They were remarkable."
Tristen Marcum had the game-winning hit in the ninth. The Pioneers would not have been in a position to win if it was not for the outstanding pitching of Sean Lawrence. He pitched a complete game, throwing 162 pitches just two days after tossing 88 in the win over Collins. The junior pitcher earned Eighth Region Most Valuable Player honors.
The Pioneers endured too much in winning the program's first-ever regional title to be content. They embarked on the state tournament hungry for more wins. They traveled to Lexington early on Monday, June 2, to get acclimated to Whitaker Bank Ballpark. Then, they defeated Southwestern in the opening round of the state tournament behind a complete game from Marcum and some stellar defense from Tyler Smith and Lawrence to close things out.
"I get the sense that our players are happy, but still want to go down to state and win," said Roberts the night before his team headed to Lexington. "I don't think they're finished or satisfied."
The Pioneers faced Hazard in the state quarterfinals on June 4. A win would place Simon Kenton in the June 6 semifinal.
