The Coming Alternatives and The Function of the Enemy (tags)
Future criticism of capitalism is not a taboo any more. Why is there so little resistance against capitalism. Capitalism is a secular religion... Thanks to ISIS, "we" can forget all the other problems. If an enemy disappears, the possibility of shifting our conflict to it also fades.

KURT WENDELBORG: Not Your Typical Mr. San Diego Leather (tags)
Kurt Wendelborg may look like a typical Leather community titleholder — he's tall, thin, in excellent shape physically and commandingly butch in his overall appearance and demeanor — but he really isn't. Most of the Mr. San Diego Leather winners have been people who've lived in San Diego and been involved in community activities for years; Kurt had lived in San Diego less than a year when he ran for the title and won. Most of the title winners have been "tops," playing the dominant role in scenes; Kurt not only is a "bottom" but proudly boasted about it from the stage at Rich's during the March 19 contest. Offstage, Kurt is personable and easygoing but also passionate and dedicated about serving his community and his fellow human beings. He eagerly agreed to a Zenger's interview and talked about the role of the title contests in the Leather community, his ambitions as a community leader and how he hopes being Mr. San Diego Leather 2011 will help him grow both personally and as a member of the Leather community.

In this interview, published in the April 2011 issue of Zenger's Newsmagazine, Sol talks extensively about his interests in Leather and so-called "edge play," and the distinction he draws between romantic intimacy and power exchanges. He also discusses the thin line between exercise and martial art, and between consensual S/M and the kinds of torture practiced on unwilling victims in places like Abu Ghraib.

October 29, 2008 UPLAND - This crop of activists were a little older than the bunch demonstrating in Rancho Cucamonga last Saturday, but not much.

David's Daily, Day Journal Of A Freelance Reporter, "Signs Of Hope" (tags)
I spent the latter half of the week, in a numbed state of anger, fear, uncertainty and a compelling urge to get involved, get active, and try and put my slim, frail shoulders to the wheel of a stuck wagon, mired in sinking in mud, in the hopes that my meager efforts might somehow help all we face today. I am sure, nearly all other Americans, and indeed, even international citizens, feel exactly the same way, or nearly the same way, these past few days.
David's Daily, Day Journal Of A Freelance Reporter, 09/12/08 (tags)
According to the people who work with the homeless in Los Angeles, the problem of homelessness is getting worse, much, much worse, not better. According to one source, "We are seeing people we have never seen before, full time students from very good schools like USC and UCLA, full time working singles who cannot afford to pay the high rents in Los Angeles, Grandmothers, the elderly, with retirement incomes, forced out of their apartments by the ever escalating rents, even during a time when housing prices are spiraling downward, the inflated rents of Los Angeles keep going ever higher, not lower."

Neo-Cons in Disarray (tags)
Washington today is characterised by neo-cons running for cover as reality presses in on their delusional world. It's every psychopath and criminal for him/herself as uncertainty grips the culpable. Neo-cons and their support networks are abandoning the new American century (delusion) for the hard reality of rapid American decline and the very real prospect of facing war crimes tribunals. The recent utterings of arch-neocon, Richard Perle, attempting to lay blame on the imbecile, Bush, reveals panic at the highest levels; but it's far too late to evade responsibility, the world is very familiar with the criminal perpetrators of the whole neo-con fiasco.

Daryl Hannah & John Quigley Send Their Solidarity to South Central Farmers from Rome Italy (tags)
Ciao to everyone from the SCF fan club in Rome. Here are the results of some of the press from the press conference on July 18th, 2006 from Rome Italy. Daryl and John were absolutely FANTASTIC and they were able to involve the media on the SCF issue (which is a great thing in Rome - the city of paparazzi). There was very little about the movie Daryl is filming in Rome and great attention on the SCFs. Newspapers and TV news reported about Daryl & John's commitment (talking also about Julia), using videos of the Farm and John's photos.

Former San Quentin prison warden opposes the execution (on 1/17) of Clarence Ray Allen (tags)
Allen's capital crimes were repugnant, but they bear little on the assessment of the threat he poses. They occurred long ago and under very different circumstances.... It will be particularly difficult for the execution of Allen to be accomplished in a dignified way.... Must we insist on dragging a dying man out of the hospital just so we can inject the chemicals that will kill him a little bit sooner? ...sparing Allen from execution would be an act of decency, compassion and justice.

I also know that he was in and out of the Veteran's Hospital all through his life. I also know that he liked to drink at bars in South Boston, sometimes with his dog beside him.

Browns right guard Shawn Lauvao was in a single-vehicle accident this morning on Interstate 90 by Carnegie Avenue in Cleveland, but alcohol was not involved and Lauvao was not injured, team spokesman Zak Gilbert said.
Lauvao was heading to the team's training facility at about 7 a.m. today when he went the wrong way on a ramp closed for construction, tried to turn around and went over a curb and an embankment, Gilbert said. Lauvao's car was towed.
A spokesperson for the City of Cleveland's office of communications referred questions regarding Lauvao to the Browns' public relations department.
Lauvao spoke to reporters this afternoon in the locker room before media members were aware of the incident. He expressed his desire to come back from the high-ankle sprain that has sidelined him for each of the first two preseason games.
Lauvao said he has been running in recent days, but he doesn't know whether he'll practice Wednesday.
"I'm battling my butt off to come back," said Lauvao, who started all 32 games the past two seasons. "I will see how it feels and do what they tell me to do."

Hi friends! Are you gearing up for back-to-school (or are you already back, like all the kids in my town)? Well, either way, I've got a fun teacher's gift for you today!
I don't know about you, but sometimes chocolate is my saving grace after a full day of entertaining and playing pretend with my 3-year-old daughter. She's a delight, but an exhausting delight at times. So, I like to keep a stash of chocolate around just for special emergencies. 🙂 So, I'm sure a teacher of 14 3-year-olds could use some chocolate every now and then.
Thus, the teacher's treat jar. (I think Miss A's teacher will love this!)
I gave my Silhouette Cameo a break over the summer, because first of all, she deserved it. And second of all, I was never home. Ah yes, details.
But I thought it was time to dust her off this month just in time for some back-to-school crafting!
I whipped up this little gift in less than a nap time. You know a craft is good when it can be accomplished in a nap time or less. I'm serious. From the design to completion, I still had time to get dinner started before I heard my favorite 3-year-old crying. Success!!
I used Silhouette's printable white sticker paper and the adhesive corrugated paper for this project. I've used the sticker paper a couple of times with the print and cut feature, which I LOVE. {See those projects here: Lemon Sugar Scrub and Burlap Spring Wreath} But this was my first time working with the corrugated paper. And I'll just say it won't be my last! I love how it adds texture and structure to my crafts.
I designed this simple "Teacher's Treat" sticker really quickly in the Silhouette Studio Designer Edition. You can download it here for free. {Personal use only!}
Then, using the trace and offset functions, I made the cut line just around the outside of the image, extended just a little bit. Since I was using the print and cut feature, I made sure to add registration marks to the page. (If you don't use the registration marks, then sadly the print and cut feature won't work.)
I printed them off on my home printer. Yes, it currently lives on the floor. I have an awesome black and white wireless printer in the office closet, but when I need to print in color it's the floor version for me. Ha! I recommend using the best quality setting on your printer for this. On my printer it's called "photo paper" and it works like a charm.
Once printed, I loaded the cute little stickers into my Cameo on the mat and selected the cut settings for "printable sticker paper" and off it went. It proceeded to read the registration marks and make perfect cuts around each one. I am always amazed that it can do that!
And then I just stuck the sticker on the mason jar. I like these wide-mouth jars. Better for sticking your hand in there for a little treat! 🙂
I cut out a tag from corrugated paper, and did another print and cut tag on top of it, which says "Have a great year."
I've included all of the files for you to use for free. Enjoy making your own "Teacher's Treat" jar. {Please only use these for personal use.}

Rick Santorum, the evangelical candidate who ran Mitt Romney a close second for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, has announced that he is the new CEO of EchoLight studios, a Texan film production firm dedicated to making and distributing movies with a Christian message.
The former Pennsylvania senator, who opposes gay marriage and abortion, argued in a 2011 speech that conservatives ought to become more involved in popular culture, and produce better quality Christian-themed content. "The problem in the past is that you have these people who create these Christian films - great message, terrible acting, horrible editing," he said. "They are not entertaining, they're preachy."
Santorum has been fundraising for EchoLight for around six months, and says the firm is now close to securing $20m in financing for future film projects. He officially announced his new role as CEO on Monday, inviting filmmakers to pitch ideas for movies in the $2m budget range. "We're looking for talented people who want to make quality films, even though we won't be spending tens of millions of dollars on each of them," Santorum told The Hollywood Reporter. "We want good writers, actors, and producers who want to make honest, uplifting content."
Founded in 2011, EchoLight has already released eight straight-to-video features, and intends to produce up to four films per year. The Dallas-based firm's early investors are reportedly wealthy Texans without much movie industry experience, but Santorum said he was confident nonetheless that "Dallas can become the Hollywood of the faith-and-family movie market."
The company's first release under Santorum will be The Redemption of Henry Myers, a western in which a bank robber, left for dead following a failed heist, is taken in by a comely widow and her children. The studio is also at work on a contemporary version of the Old Testament tale of Joseph and his coat of many colours, and Hoovey, the true story of a high school basketball star who had to learn to walk and talk again after suffering a brain tumour.
Hoovey will be directed by Sean McNamara, who also helmed 2011's Soul Surfer, the true story of Bethany Hamilton, the teenager who pursued a professional surfing career despite losing her left arm in a shark attack. Santorum says he was disappointed by that film's lack of focus on Hamilton's Christianity.
"Soul Surfer was a good film, but it didn't accurately portray faith in that young lady's life," he said. "I don't want to preach to anybody, I just want to portray faith as it really is, and we're going to be telling a lot of true-life stories, and we're going to make them comfortable even for people who are not of faith, because they are honest. That's the challenge for us, and it's what Hollywood tends to shy away from."

NFL Notes
When Adrian Peterson was 7, he saw his older brother die in a bike accident when he was hit by a drunken driver.
For Peterson's teenage years, his father was in prison. He grew up poor in east Texas. Shortly before the Minnesota Vikings drafted him in 2007, a half-brother was shot and killed.
Long before Peterson began running through the NFL record book, he learned to turn tragedy into fuel for an exceptional career. Football has always been his escape, and now he's dealing with more off-the-field strife.
One of Peterson's sons, a victim of alleged child abuse, died Friday of severe head injuries suffered in the attack. The man charged in the case, Joseph Patterson, was home alone with the 2-year-old boy Wednesday and called 911 to report the boy was choking, according to police. Patterson was the boyfriend of the child's mother.
Peterson missed practice Thursday to be in Sioux Falls, S.D., where the boy lived with his mother and Patterson. He returned to the Vikings on Friday.
"Things that I go through, I've said a thousand times, it helps me play this game to a different level," he said after practice, about an hour after the child's death. "I'm able to kind of release a lot of my stress through this sport, so that's what I plan on doing."
The Vikings play Carolina on Sunday, and Peterson promised to participate.
"I'll be ready to roll, focused," he said.
Rookie cornerback Johnthan Banks, the third Tampa Bay player diagnosed with MRSA, was cleared to play today in the Buccaneers' game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
MRSA is a staph infection that is resistant to many common antibiotics. …
Kansas City placed rookie tight end Travis Kelce on injured reserve after he had surgery earlier in the week to repair damaged cartilage in his left knee. …
Seattle released offensive lineman Jason Spitz. …
The San Diego Chargers were spared the embarrassment of a local TV blackout of Monday night's game against Indianapolis Colts after ESPN and some local sponsors guaranteed the purchase of approximately 8,500 tickets.

"Rowing harder doesn't help if the boat is headed in the wrong direction."
- Kenichi Ohmae
Let's talk exercise, training technique, nutrition and fact versus fiction. If you love scanning information, learning quickly and then moving on to the next thing , this article is for you.
Whether you are a beginner, novice or experienced exerciser, here's some "stuff" I think you should know:
The Magic Workout
Get it into your mind that there is no "best and only way" to work out. Everyone wants to know, what is the best "super slow rep" workout, "the best DVD workout," "the best number of days to workout" etc. In reality, it's all good if it works for you.
Don't let the body or the mind adapt. Your body will adapt to any exercise routine in approximately 4-6 weeks. Vary volume of sets, time between sets, reps, exercises, cardiovascular exercises and DVDs, etc. Manipulate your routine every 3-4 weeks and view change as the key.
When a person starts eating less food than their body uses on a daily basis (calorie restriction), intermediate energy sources are needed to make up the caloric difference. These sources are blood sugar, liver, muscle glycogen (sugar) and blood lipids (fat). After a few days of intelligent calorie restriction, the liver begins to convert stored body fat into new glucose (carbohydrate). This process, known as glucogenesis, will convert as much body fat to glucose as necessary to make up any caloric deficit. That's part of the major process in losing body fat.
Exercise form and technique
Cheating on form and technique while weight training catches up on everyone eventually, by way of injuries. In weight training, we often place too much emphasis on how much weight to lift and not enough on how or why we perform the lift. Always perform your weight training with perfect form and technique. This way you'll make great progress and prevent injury.
Fatigue during exercise
Most people think too much along the lines of "no pain, no gain" or "if I work out two hours a day seven days per week, I'll improve." Don't seek fatigue; instead, manage it during your workout. If you have lots of energy during a certain workout, do a few more sets or add five minutes to your cardio routine. If you're super tired, back off a few sets or reduce the time of your cardio session. Relish in your ability to manage your energy and your mind.
Stay with the basics
Weight train for about 35 minutes to an hour three to four days per week and perform cardio 3-4 days per week for 30-40 minutes; eat a little less; take in enough protein; drink a lot of water; get plenty of rest and be consistent. That's how you make progress. If you don't have time for this much exercise, that's okay. Simply scale back the programme - but remain consistent.
Height and Weight
Height and weight rarely tell you all you need to know. The key is finding out how much muscle versus fat that's on your body. One person can be 5'4" and weigh 9 stones and look great. Another person with the same height and weight may look soft and out of shape. The first undoubtedly has more muscle mass.
The best way to lose body fat
Fall down, get back up… fall down, get back up… fall down, get back up. No matter how many times you waver from your diet plan, don't give up. Try to focus on the emotion you'll eventually feel when you achieve your goal. That's the key. We live in a very "hand holding" society. I encourage you to challenge yourself and call upon your own levels of discipline. It sits there waiting for you, always waiting for you to exercise it.
Beware of magic potions
Don't get hooked on supplements that promise to magically reduce body fat or commercials that sell ineffective products and make claims to flatten your abs. Remember, these companies are just in it for the money and don't provide all the information you require to make a wise decision. They prey on emotion and impulse buying. Stay away… far away.
Apply the knowledge
I know you know this, but I have to say it anyway. No matter how much knowledge you have about nutrition and exercise, it doesn't matter unless you apply it. Application does not mean perfection. It simply means that you steadily move towards your goal. You do know what your short and long-term goals are, don't you? Gather as much knowledge as possible concerning exercise and nutrition and how YOUR body reacts to it. That way you will see the results you want – a healthier, fitter body!

Actions of Architecture by Professor Jonathan Hill
Book DescriptionDrawing on the work of a wide range of architects, artists and writers, this book considers the relations between the architect and the user, which it compares to the relations between the artist and viewer and the author and reader. The book's thesis is informed by the text 'The Death of the Author', in which Roland Barthes argues for a writer aware of the creativity of the reader. Actions of Architecture begins with a critique of strategies that define the user as passive and predictable, such as contemplation and functionalism. Subsequently it considers how an awareness of user creativity informs architecture, architects and concepts of authorship in architectural design. Identifying strategies that recognize user creativity, such as appropriation, collaboration, disjunction, DIY, montage, polyvalence and uselessness, Actions of Architecture states that the creative user should be the central concern of architectural design.

Immaterial Architecture, Paperback (April 2006)» View all books by Professor Jonathan Hill
Architecture is generally perceived as the solid, physical matter that it unarguably creates, but what of the spaces it creates?

Skip to comments.Huckabee blames others for cop killings during O'Reilly interview (VIDEO)
Posted on 12/01/2009 9:02:57 AM PST by bigred08
He quickly pointed the finger at the parole board, the judge, and the prosecutor. He said no one spoke out against granting clemency, which does not square with the prosecutor's recollection.
(Excerpt) Read more at examiner.com ...
"The Buck Never Got Here!"
And we can quickly point our fingers back at him for lowering his sentence allowing the parole board to grant him parole ... if he kept his nose out of it that guy would still be in prison and four cops still alive .... what a jerk.
"which does not square with the prosecutor's recollection."
Is this the same prosecutor that failed to file charges for violent felonies for 3 years? Resulting in this scum bag being released on those charges.
Nobody ever granted clemency. Huckabee reduced the guys sentence from 97 to 43 years. The parole board which the Governor has no control over paroled him. After he was paroled he violated his parole and was sent back to jail and later on they paroled him again. Recently, in Washington, he was released on $15K bond following an arrest for child molestation. He had 8 felony arrests in Washington after he left Arkansas.
Yes, before I jump on the blame Huckabee bandwagon, I want to know what the politics and record of this prosecutor are.
I think the buck hit him right between the eyes.
He can't wiggle his way out of this one. We don't need another "compassionate conservative" in the WH.
There are a lot of people that need to stay locked up for the good of the rest of us.
Now..let's get on with locking up all those who aided this perp and send them away for a good long while.
Throw the lying bum out!
The prison system is broken. Everyone knows its broken. Huckster would made a terrible President but laying all the blame on his doorstep for this one is silly and pure politics.
The system failed spectacularly. The parole board, the prosecutor, judges, lawyers, and the Gov all carry blame.
How many more of these animals have been released in every single state??
That being said, I've never understood why this guy had any traction with Conservatives at all, and he was seen as a rising star @2004.
His lack of personal responsibility and accountability on this is shameful.
Handing out over 1,000 commutations doesn't make you compassionate, it makes you reckless. You have to KNOW that some of the folks you're letting back out on the streets (at that rate) are going to cause harm to innocents. He was derelict in his duty to keep law abiding citizens safe.
The blood of four upstanding LEOs is on your hands, Huck, and no amount of spinning and finger pointing is going to change that.
I think the buck hit him right between the eyes.
Throw which lyin bum out? Huck isn't "in" anything now to be thrown out.
It won't work. Huck is toast.
Huckabee is a fair Bass Guitar player. He should stick to what he knows.
How soon before the 'Huckster' takes a page from Zero's book and blames Bush?
His show is fine. It keeps him employed, which keeps him out of politics.
No thanks to the pastor-in-chief.
You were fine until the last part. Being a pastor does not mean you wouldn't be a good President. As a matter of fact, it might be a big asset as you know you are held to a higher standard. This particular minister, however, I wouldn't want to see in office.
_uck Huck!
The buck stops with Huck. He has blood on his hands and his weak and pathetic stand "that it was someone else's responsibility to tell him he was doing wrong" is a pile of dung.
Sorry Huck — too much liberalism with your pardons and commutations. That cannot stand with anyone who calls themselves a conservative and supposes to support the law and our justice system (what is left of it).
The man makes my skin crawl. He is a self promoting creep who used his office to get a TV show and book deal. If he were in the WH you can bet he would be pushing amnesty too. Enough of compassionate conversatives like this creep. He wanted to be liked so he went easy on those who supposedly "repented." Sorry, Huck that is not for you to decide but God in the hereafter. On earth, Clemmons should have rotted in prison.
He reminds me of Robert Tilton.
These two sentences flatly contradict each other. A governor reducing a sentence -IS- clemency, and it stated right on the clemency certificate - the one Huckabee signed - that it made the prisoner *immediately* eligible for parole.
Not a Huck fan, but at least he didn't run from the guy with the microphone like all those sleazy judges and liberal politicians.
Who do you think appoints the Parole Board?
I'm with you. The only good thing that has come out of this is that Huckabuck's presidential aspirations are going up in smoke.
He didn't run from his Fox cohort's microphone because in the end he knew he'd get a tongue bath from Bill.
I agree with you 100%. A big part of the problem is phony politicians like Huckabee. Huckabee is far from the whole problem, but he makes things a lot worse.
"Is this the same prosecutor that failed to file charges for violent felonies for 3 years? Resulting in this scum bag being released on those charges."
Excellent point! No reasonably person, to include Mike Huckabee (I saw the interview), would say that Mike made the right decision to allow parole. However, the bottom line here is that this IS NOT ABOUT what a terrible thing he did. THIS IS ABOUT POLITICAL OPPORTUNISM to tarr an otherwise decent person because he is blocking someone elses' favorite candidate from advancing.
We have some extreme FANATICS here on FR that support their candidate to the point of being dangerous to the political process. Romney and Palin supporters are the very worst.
I find this very distressing, because I also think highly of Sarah Palin. As it stands right now, I would vote for Huckabee before Palin in the primary. However, I would be overjoyed if EITHER won. Palin cultists here on FR would probably commit suicide if she lost in a primary to Huckabee. Than is JUST PLAIN INSANE. I don't hold Sarah Palin responsible for this fanatatism....I think she would be equally appaled by it.
FOLKS....Support Sarah Palin because she deserves it....BUT STOP WORSHIPING HER. And STOP trashing Huckabee (her main rival for value voters) to advance Palin. It isn't necessary and it just leaves a destroyed party.
Hopefully, this marks the end of his political career. I certainly will continue to not watch him on Fox.
This does not affect my support for Huck. He never had any from me.
This does not affect my support for Huck. He never had any from me.
I disagree.
"I have never liked Huckabee. I have always considered him a phony."
That is the only true thing you have said (true in the sense they are your opinions on Huckabee - no facts)....everything else is just rhetoric.
As most others here you start out hating the guy....everything that flows from then on is biased verbage.
It is OK to dislike Huckabee. However, the political opportunism being seized by many here to advance their own candidate by denigrating Huckabee is deporable.
"The parole board which the Governor has no control over paroled him.
Who do you think appoints the Parole Board?"
GOOD point! Huck was also over the edge liberal on illegal aliens. Compassion like his will kill us all.
2006: Supported President Bushs immigration plan and claimed that opposition to Bushs proposal was driven by racism or nativism and that it wasnt amnesty. (Ralph Hallow, Huckabee Serious About Presidency, Washington Times, 5/17/06)
Wrote in his 2007 book that implementing strict enforcement of immigration laws would be sheer folly and that it made sense to give those here illegally a process through which they pay a reasonable fine in admission of their guilt for the past infraction of violating our border laws and agree to adhere to a pathway toward legal status and citizenship. (Mike Huckabee, From Hope to Higher Ground, 2007, p. 117-118)
In Arkansas:
As Governor, Huckabee fought for in-state tuition and taxpayer funded scholarships for illegal immigrants. He opposed legislation to require proof of citizenship in order to obtain public benefits and to vote. He vocally opposed a raid on a factory in Arkansas that employed illegal immigrants. And he led an effort to bring a Mexican Consulate to Arkansas - one of the main functions of the Consulate would be to issue identification cards to Mexicans living, both legally and illegally, in the U.S.
Championed an effort in Arkansas to give in-state tuition at state colleges and taxpayer-funded scholarships to illegal immigrants, similar to the DREAM Act proposal at the federal level. (Laura Kellams, Senators research U.S. law on aliens, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, 1/27/05)
When Republican state senators in Arkansas proposed legislation modeled after Arizonas Proposition 200 [to require proof of citizenship for voting and public benefits], Huckabee described it as inflammatory ... race-baiting ... demagoguery. He said the bill, which seeks to forbid public assistance and voting rights to illegal immigrants, inflames those who are racist and bigots and makes them think theres a real problem. But theres not. (Governor says anti-illegals measure could scare off companies like Toyota, A ssociated Press, 2/3/05)
Opposed a raid on illegal immigrants in an Arkansas poultry plant even though calls to his office were about 1,000 to one against his stance. (Melissa Nelson, Huckabee Risks Political Fortunes To Denounce Immigration Raid, Associated Press, 8/5/05)
Helped lead the effort to open a Mexican Consulate in Little Rock to issue Matricula Consular cards to Mexicans living in the U.S. (including those in the U.S. illegally). Many banks, including some in Arkansas, accept the card as a valid form of identification. (Jon Gambrell, Ark. Candidates Criticize Mexican Matricula Cards, AP, 10/18/06)
Give it up Huckleberry!....You're toast!
He was one of 50 Gov who all do the same thing. Regardless of what Huck did this guy should have been in jail for the felonies committed in Washington.
Why do the authorities who released this animal in WA get no press? politics?
From what I've read, at 0245 hours today a Seattle patrolman ended the problem by killing the a$$hat convict copkiller.
"Huckabee is as much a con man as Jim Baker. "
Brother Hucks Travelin' Salvation Show
I can't help that.
Huckabee released and pardoned more criminals while he was Governor of Arkansas than Bill Clinton did.
Huckabee's nickname is "Huckster" and now you know why.
Except, I guess, the judge and jury that convicted him.
In fairness, Huckabee acted 10 years ago and the guy was paroled by Washington state a week ago. Washington has a greater responsibility for the deaths of those officers than Huckabee.

IE does not allow cross-site loading of XSLT stylesheets, apparently because of
security reasons. It seems like we should follow suit.
We have limited external stylesheet loading so that the external stylesheet can
only load external resources from the site where the stylesheet resides. Also
the original author must have trusted that stylesheet provider at least
initially. It is possible that the author did not realize that the XSLT could be
malicious (it is a stylesheet, what bad can it do?). Also if the stylesheet
provider is hacked the original author may not become aware of that.
It should be possible to override this by using trusted sites/domains (for
example it seems safe to download stylesheets from W3C), see bug 165531 for how
this could be implemented.
Isn't the problem that badguys.com could try to load a stylesheet from
yourintranet.com and thereby discover some information that should be secret?
Yes, that is also possible, but I think less likely to divulge important
We'd like to get this fixed by Mozilla 1.3 so that people don't start depending
on cross-site loading of stylesheets. Peter, can you do this?
Peter, can you fix this for 1.3a? The freeze is next Tuesday.
i can try to come up with a patch

We should probably not return an error-code since that might stop the parsing,
which we IMHO shouldn't do. NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS(rv, NS_OK) would be ok with me
since the warning could be good to have for debugging.
With that, r=sicking

Created attachment 160130 [details]
A simple XML and XSL Java WAR file for deployment into a Java App Server to illustrate that this bug is incorrectly fixed
IMHO this "bug" should be reopened and resolved properly, or at the very least,
allow hard-disk based XML files (that you have potentially saved from a web
server) to connect back to a web server in order to obtain their associated XSL
file. I am an avid fan of the Mozilla project and all that it stands for; but
am amazed to see a bug beginning with words such as "IE does not allow
cross-site loading of XSLT stylesheets, apparently because of security reasons.
It seems like we should follow suit."; IE does make a request to a remote XSL
file if the XML you are viewing is stored on your local file system! (I have
not tried true Cross-site loading)
IE actually has another (more serious) bug in the MSXML engine (the DDL which
processes XSLT within IE), whereby it ignores the user's language preferences,
and does not bother sending ANY "accept-language" header. See the examples I
have included for more info.
I have included a few sample snippets of XML, XSL and JSP to illustrate my
point, and allow replication of the problem I wish to outline.
Imagine the following scenario:
- An XML data file is generated as part of a batch process and emailed to a
customer. (Hundreds of thousands of these files are sent out at a time, and the
customer needs to store a copy, hence they are not generated "on the fly" by
the web server itself!)
- The XML contains pure data, so no internationalisation is required here
- The email recipient opens the XML file, which has a stylesheet processing
instruction in the header referencing an XSL file back on the server(s) which
sent the file. (This XSL file is actually a JSP, so it can be internationalised
and have some other useful logic in it)
- The email recipient's system web browser (the plan is to support IE and all
mozilla variants) opens the XML file, and requests the XSL from the web server.
The web server inspects the "accept-language" header from the browser and
internationalises the "display and formatting" content in the XSL, allowing the
browser to render the XML file as HTML, localised for the user's native
In order to get mozilla to recognise the XSL file correctly, you will need to
ensure the web server sets the content-type as "text/xml" or more preferably,
"text/xml; charset=UTF-8". If you deploy the WAR file I have attached into
Tomcat or JBoss, this should work out of the box.
May I recommend one possible solution until security domains are implemented
within Mozilla? A popup that asks the user "This XML file is attempting to
connect to {URL} to obtain a stylesheet to display this document, do you wish
to allow this?" (Yes/No). This would at least allow the user to make the choice
of what happens next, rather than the current behaviour which is to strip all
the tag information off and display unformatted text, which I personally think
is highly undesireable!
Other interesting things to try with IE:
Deploy the WAR and check http://localhost:8080/xsl/msxml/msxml4-example.html.
broken in Internet Explorer, as I have setup my browser in French, and regional
settings are still UK, and this field is still initialised to "en_US"!!
If any further information is required, please do not hesitate to ask me as I
would really like to get this issue resolved in my favourite browser!
Below is the request headers for 2 identical requests, one from IE and one from
The following is the debug output from the XSL JSP file. It simply iterates
over the Request Headers and prints them out to the log
Internet Explorer 6 calling http://localhost:8080/xsl/verysimple.xml, output

Hi y'all
..one of my grand-daugher-kids (sort of? i.e. via Adam N' Eve

"Hi gramps, just a very quick question: Do you know of a good &
cheap source for lilies on the net that takes international orders??? I'm
looking for the good old Madonna, Martagon liles etc, and here they're
pretty expensive - approx US$6 for 1 or 2 small bulbs, and larger
quantities (which is often cheaper) is hard to find!" [end quote]

From Comcast SportsNetPEORIA, Ariz. (AP) -- Felix Hernandez and Seattle reached agreement Tuesday on a contract that is expected to make the Mariners ace the highest-paid pitcher in baseball."I think it's a great thing for the Seattle Mariners," Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik said. "It's a great thing for Felix Hernandez, and looking forward to this guy being here for a very long time, obviously."Hernandez's deal is expected to be for 175 million over seven years. Terms of the contract were not released by the team. Hernandez and Zduriencik will hold a news conference in Seattle on Wednesday afternoon where Hernandez is expected to sign the contract.Earlier Tuesday, Zduriencik said the sides were having significant talks to try to finalize a new contract for the three-time All-Star and 2010 AL Cy Young Award winner. Zduriencik said then that a deal of that magnitude in years and dollars, "takes time to work things out."It didn't take too long. By the afternoon, Hernandez's deal was done and Seattle had its ace locked up through the 2019 season.The new contract will encompass the final two years of his current deal that is scheduled to pay Hernandez 40.5 million in 2013 and 2014. He'll receive 134.5 million over the additional five years.Hernandez's total dollars would top CC Sabathia's original 161 million, seven-year contract with the New York Yankees and his 25 million average would surpass Zack Greinke's 24.5 million under his new contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers and tie him for the second-highest in baseball with Josh Hamilton and Ryan Howard behind Alex Rodriguez (27.5 million). Hernandez's new money would average 26.9 million over five years.With Hernandez off the market, Detroit's Justin Verlander and the Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw become the most attractive pitchers eligible for free agency after the 2014 season. Tampa Bay's David Price is eligible after the 2015 season.Hernandez, who will turn 27 on April 8, is 98-76 with a 3.22 ERA in eight seasons with the Mariners. He won a career-high 19 games in 2009 when he finished second in the Cy Young voting then won the award a year later when he went just 13-12 but had a 2.27 ERA and 232 strikeouts.Hernandez appeared to be making another Cy Young push last year before going 0-4 in his last six starts, which left him at 13-9 with 223 strikeouts.His career record would be even better if he didn't play with one of baseball's worst offenses. Seattle had the lowest batting average in the major leagues in each of the last three seasons. Hernandez has taken 10 losses during that span when he's given up two earned runs or less.For his career, Hernandez has allowed two earned runs or less in 141 of 238 starts, but the team is only 99-42 in those games due to the offensive problems.

text: Future Teens To Save Universe In Epic MannerGraeme McMillan4/04/08 2:47pmFiled to: legion of super-heroesGeoff Johnsfinal crisisSuperman14EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Because drhayes demanded it (and who says we don't listen to our readers?), DC Comics have released some more information about the Legion of Super-Heroes-related tie-in to summer blockbuster Final Crisis. Called Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds, the five-part series aims to tell a story that "is epic in its scope [going] across the universe, all across Earth, across time and space," according to writer Geoff Johns. Learn more under the jump. A series that will not only tie in with the eight-part Final Crisis series that runs the entirety of DC history from the first boy on Earth to the last (Yes, Anthro and Kamandi will both appear), but also celebrate the Legion's 50th anniversary and sort out once and for all what's going on with all those multiple versions of the same characters may look like a tall order for most people, considering that that would mean upwards of 50 characters to deal with. Unless, apparently, you're Geoff Johns: Advertisement Advertisement [T]here's a focus on a group of characters. Certain characters will really get the spotlight. A lot of other characters will be in the background. That's what George [Perez, artist on the series as well as 1980s "everyone in the DC universe" series Crisis on Infinite Earths] does. When you have these big epics and you have dozens and dozens of characters, it can get overwhelming, but there's a focus on a group of characters that have their goals and missions that really represent to me the heart of the Legion. And those characters will be getting most of the attention. But everybody will be in there. Just about everybody. That "just about everybody" includes not just the Legion's regular cast(s), but also Superman-Prime (the nerdy, evil Superboy from Infinite Crisis and The Sinestro Corps War) and Lex Luthor, as well as the final Green Lantern in history. Having a large cast is just part and parcel of the whole "space epic" genre, but Johns doesn't see that as a problem for new readers: [Y]ou don't have to know anything before you read it. This is Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes vs. Superboy-Prime and the Legion of Super-Villains... [My] goal is to have people cheering for these characters. Some people don't know the Legion yet. Some people don't see the value in the Legion yet. My goal is to have them cheering for them by the end of this. And if you already do know the Legion, you're going to cheer louder. Expect time-travel, explanations about the mallable nature of reality and lots and lots of punching from the series when it launches in August.
