Expert Advice: Looking Back to the Early Days of GPS
By Len Jacobson Besides my family and friends, two major influences have guided my life. One is GPS, and the other is flying, although I'm not a pilot. Most of the flying was on business trips for GPS. I've been writing a book about my experiences and how I helped in a small way to bring GPS to the world.... read more

I always enjoy listening to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Once Upon a Christmas was extraordinary! I felt the power and joy each performer brought to the stage. My favorite song was "Sing Forth this Day." It felt like I was dancing and singing in the 1800's. I also felt like I was in A Christmas Carol {A classic story by Charles Dickens}. I loved the sweet sound of the bells. I was also drawn to Jane Seymour's voice. It was beautiful!

A proposed new City Council committee would have the mission to clearly define the establishment and operation of off-leash dog areas and parks in Long Beach.
The proposal, sponsored by Councilwoman Gerrie Schipske, would blend community members with city staff members to create an Off- Leash Dog Area (Dog Parks) Advisory Committee.
According to a memorandum, the group would provide input to the Parks and Recreation Commission on issues affecting existing and future dog parks in the city, such as funding, facility regulations, design standards and other issues.
The committee would also potentially look for ways to use parts of existing parks for owners to let their dogs run off leash.
Long Beach has six dog parks, although one, Rosie's Dog Park in Belmont Shore, is not a fenced, dedicated canine space.
Mary Matthiensen, a community advocate involved with an effort to build a dog park near El Dorado Park, criticized the proposal as another layer of bureaucracy.
She argued that the Parks and Recreation Committee already oversees dog park- related issues.
The Parks and Recreation Committee voted last November to approve a dog park south of Spring Street near El Dorado Park at a city maintenance yard.
It was one of four sites considered. The others were opposed over concerns that included stormwater runoff affecting a nearby community garden, encroachment into the El Dorado Nature Center habitat and impacts to infrastructure.
The project, a private-public partnership, has struggled to raise funds necessary for construction.
On her website, Schipske supported the Spring Street location, but opposed using land that would impact an expansion of the Nature Center.
The City Council will hear Schipske's proposal at its 5 p.m. meeting on Tuesday at City Hall, 333 W. Ocean Blvd.
A live broadcast can be viewed on Charter Communications Channel 3, Verizon FiOS Channel 21 and at www.longbeach.gov.

Certain Washington state businesses qualify to have a reseller permit. The Department issues permits to businesses that regularly make purchases for resale or meet other specific criteria. It is free for any business to apply for a reseller permit.
If you don't have a reseller permit but need to make purchases for resale without paying sales tax, you can pay retail sales tax on purchases and:
The "taxable amount for tax paid at source" deduction is based on the amount paid for the materials, not including the sales tax. It's important to note that sales tax must be collected on the total price of the item or contract when the materials are resold. This sample question demonstrates how this works:
Q: I'm a custom contractor. I recently bought lumber and paid sales tax at the time of purchase. Later, I built a fence with that lumber and collected sales tax. Is there a way to get the sales tax I paid back from my purchase of that lumber?
A: Yes. In order to be paid back for the sales tax that you paid originally, you can take what is called a "taxable amount for tax paid at source" deduction on your return.
ABC Company purchased lumber for $100 from a Seattle store, plus sales tax of $9.50(rate of 9.5%).
State portion of sales tax: $6.50 ($100 x 6.5% or 0.065)
Local portion of sales tax: $3.00 ($100 x 3.0% or 0.030)
ABC was later hired to build a fence in Tacoma using the lumber purchased in Seattle. The total amount earned for the contract was $500, plus $46.50 in sales tax (rate of 9.3%).
State portion of sales tax: $32.50 ($500 x 6.5% or 0.065)
Local portion of sales tax: $14.00 ($500 x 2.8% or 0.028)
This is how the deduction would look on your Combined Excise Tax Return.
Step 1: Retailing B&O
Step 2: Retail Sales
Step 3: Itemize Deduction
Step 4: Local Sales Tax

The 62nd anniversary of the first nuclear weapons test in the Nevada desert drew about 70 Utahns of varied faiths Sunday to First Baptist Church in Salt Lake City to remember those affected by decades of fallout and to ensure that "it must never happen again."
It was the second such day of remembrance organized by the Utah Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (UCAN), a group pushing for the United States to ratify the international Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT).
David Smith, a retired neurologist, stood at the front of the sanctuary Sunday and struggled with a flood of emotions. In 1996, Smith traveled to Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, to study the effects of the 1986 nuclear power plant catastrophe in Chernobyl.
"They didn't allow anyone near Chernobyl until 10 years later," Smith said. By chance, he was able to interview the doctor who headed up the nearby hospital.
"I'll light a candle for all the people who helped those victims," Smith said, noting that in a few weeks he and his wife plan to travel to Norway to organize a march against nuclear weapons.
Salt Lake City resident Ali Sadler reminisced about stories her grandparents would share of raising a young family in St. George, which was downwind of the Nevada tests.
"There was a test going on and the message came across the radio saying they should go inside. So my grandmother went outside and told her husband," Sadler said. "And he told her the government would never do anything to hurt them. So I light this candle for that to be said again and for it to be true."
The United States flexed its nuclear might against Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, in August 1945, aiming to end WWII. The U.S. went on to test more than 1,000 nuclear weapons, with the final detonation occurring Sept. 23, 1992.
According to Utah History to Go, Iron County sheep ranchers were the first to notice the ill effects of the early 1950s testing that government officials promised had been safely conducted. Thousands of sheep exhibited blisters and burns, and many gave birth to deformed or stillborn lambs.
By the late 1950s and early 1960s, clusters of rare childhood leukemia were appearing in children, and some who lived downwind from the test site were blaming radioactive fallout for infertility, miscarriages and birth defects.
However, the government continued to deny any direct connection for many years, with courts ruling in their favor until 1986. In 1990, Congress passed the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act, signed into law by President George H.W. Bush. The law provides compensation to people who suffered certain cancers due to radiation exposure from working in the uranium industry, at the testing site, or downwind from it.
According to the United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs, more than three dozen nations have ratified the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. The U.S. is not among them, along with China, Egypt, India, Iran, Israel, North Korea or Pakistan.
Tomoko Moses, speaking at Sunday's service, recounted her childhood in Japan in the 1950s. Her family had no television, Moses said, so they learned of the Nevada nuclear tests from news reels shown at a nearby movie theater.
"My father said that the U.S. was a very powerful country that must be very big because no one got killed from the nuclear testing," Moses said. "When I got older, I came to Utah and saw all the people still suffering."
It was then that she learned that "America is not that big after all."
Rabbi Ilana Schwartzman, who leads Salt Lake City's Congregation Kol Ami, also spoke at the remembrance.
"Yesterday is past, it cannot tell us what tomorrow will bring," Schwartzman said. "If there is goodness at the heart of all life, then its power like the power of evil is real. Which shall prevail? Moment by moment we choose between them."

Linda - from Clarksburg, OH
You can use buttercream icing to pipe the dots and pearl border. Depending on your hand pressure, a tip 4 , 5, or 6 should work great, but certainly adjust for what you think works best. Another option are the new silicone fondant molds available. Several have pearl strands and other border options - simply dust with cornstarch, press in the fondant and voila!

Part of a continuing series on sustainable remodeling projects from across the country.
This renovation of a 1917 bungalow incorporates a variety of sustainable design principles and materials to create a warm, traditional space brimming with Craftsman-style design details.
The project team started from the ground up to fully weatherize the house. The original house was built on 90-year-old cedar posts with a half basement built of CMUs added in the 1950s. The project team replaced the cedar posts with concrete piers and footings, and wrapped the crawlspace floor and walls in a CleanSpace polyethylene vapor barrier. The team then sprayed five inches minimum of open-cell spray foam around the perimeter. The CMU walls were covered with PolyGuard 650 and three inches of E.P.S. insulation.
An ultra-insulated wall system with a radiant barrier was placed on top of a polyethylene membrane air barrier wrapping the entire house. This wall system, along with spray foam insulation at the roof line, created an airtight envelope. The existing stone veneer was carefully removed and re-used with the new design.
Natural daylighting was a priority in every room, even the master bedroom walk-in closet. Architect Joseph Bennett chose Loewen metal-clad double-glazed windows with Cardinal 366 low-E glazing for a SHGC of 0.28. The first-floor public spaces are intentionally one room wide to allow for daylight from both sides and promote natural ventilation. Stairs and windows in the loft enhance natural ventilation through the solar thermal chimney effect.
The kitchen and bathrooms incorporate many high-performance touches such as mesquite and eucalyptus cabinets, Enviroglas recycled glass flooring, Caesarstone quartz, and Richlite recycled paper countertops. The range hood is connected to a mechanical damper that opens when turned on to allow fresh air in at the toe space on either side of the range.
Workers uncovered an unexpected find during demolition: Original long leaf pine shiplap, which they found behind Sheetrock walls, was reclaimed and reused in the foyer ceiling and used to wrap the coffered ceiling beams in master bedroom.
Other sustainable features include:
-- an urban infill site that is close to public transit, grocery stores, and a public park.
--24-gauge Galvalume metal roof.
--no-VOC paints and water-based polyurethane and stains.
--18-SEER Carrier Infinity multi-zoned HVAC system.
--all ductwork and HVAC equipment located within the thermal envelope.
--drought-tolerant and pest-resistant plants used in landscaping.
--Solar Sync rain sensor that automatically shuts off the irrigation system on rainy days.

A 40-year-old Salt Lake City man charged with five felonies for the alleged sexual abuse of a 10-year-old boy at a 2008 sleepover is facing new charges for an unrelated 2012 assault.
William Patrick Estell was charged Monday in Salt Lake City's 3rd District Court with three first-degree felony counts of forcible sodomy and one count of second-degree forcible sexual abuse for allegedly engaging in sex acts with a 14-year-old boy at a park near the Jordan River Parkway.
If convicted of the charges, Estell faces a possible life sentence.
The alleged assault occurred about three months before Estell was charged with the 2008 offenses, court documents show.
In the newest case, prosecutors contend Estell approached the boy on a playground at 1665 South Riverside Drive, and began to talk to him. In a probable cause statement filed with the court, the boy told police the conversation turned to "rough housing," and that when he was tackled by Estell, the older man put his hands down the boy's pants and touched his penis, court papers say.
The boy was then led to secluded area along the Jordan River Parkway where he was forced to engage in oral and anal sex, even though he had asked Estell to "stop," the documents say.
No hearing dates have been set in the new case and court records don't indicate whether Estell has obtained an attorney.
Estell is currently being held in the Salt Lake County jail and could not be reached for comment. Bail is set at more than $300,000.
A preliminary hearing in Estell's 2008 case is set for March 26.

The Australian share market has closed slightly higher as investors await inflation figures from the United States and local inflation data.
OptionsXpress market analyst Ben Le Brun said local investors were also waiting for mining giant BHP Billiton's June quarter production report to be released on Wednesday.
Mr Le Brun said trading on Tuesday had been generally lacklustre, with low volumes of shares traded and no consistent themes.
"Everyone's just on the sidelines, playing the wait-and-see game," he said.
He said the materials sector had supported the local bourse on Tuesday as investors anticipated a generally good production report from BHP Billiton.
"That might be a driver (for the market on Wednesday) and also the CPI (inflation) figures," Mr Le Brun said.
US CPI figures are due on Tuesday night, and local inflation figures are due on Wednesday.
Mr Le Brun said developments in the shooting down of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 were having little to no impact on the Australian market.
In the resources sector, BHP Billiton rose 29 cents to $38.51, Rio Tinto gained 43 cents to $64.13, and Fortescue Metals firmed four cents to $4.61.
Australia's largest gold miner Newcrest was off three cents at $11.43 as it prepared to fight a class action by shareholders hurt by a massive financial writedown in 2013.
Oil Search lifted four cents to $9.54 after the ramp-up of a massive liquefied natural gas project in Papua New Guinea fuelled a surge in the company's quarterly revenue.
Among the major banks, the Commonwealth Bank was down 10 cents at $81.26, ANZ dipped two cents to $33.37, National Australia Bank eased five cents to $34.20, and Westpac added four cents to $33.94.
* On Tuesday, the benchmark S&P/ASX200 index was up 3.4 points, or 0.06 per cent, at 5,543.3 points.
* The broader All Ordinaries index was up 5.3 points, or 0.1 per cent, at 5,534.0 points.
* The September share price index futures contract was down five points at 5,495 points, with 17,442 contracts traded.
* National turnover was 1.6 billion securities worth $3.24 billion.
* The price of gold in Sydney at 1700 AEST was $US1,307.80, down $US5.90 on Monday's price of $US1,313.70.

Subject: [htdig] Help : Incomplete Search Results
From: ravi (firstname.lastname@example.com)
Date: Mon Oct 23 2000 - 06:39:00 PDT
Hello to all of you Friends!!
I am having a search problem on my site. I have "htdig-3.1.5"
installed on my site. The problem arose when I shifted my site to a new
web server running MySQL 3.23, PHP4.02 on Apache web server 1.36. The
old server was running on MySQL 3.21 with PHP 3.0 on Apache server.
For testing purpose, I checked the search results for a word on my
old server. The output was 55 matched results by htdig. However after
installing and copying all the config files of htdig on to the new
server, the same search word resulted in just 13 results as compared to
55 results on the old server. All the content pages have been verbatim
copied on the new server. But still after repeated indexing of the site
through rundig, I simply get very less results.
Can anybody tell me what am I required to do or missing something in the
process of transfer/configuring of config files of htdig-3.1.5
I shall be highly obliged.
With Regards

Long Beach State's 49er Sailing Team hopes to flex its muscle this weekend in Newport Beach, repeating some of its successes earlier this year.
The team hopes to qualify for the Pacific Coast Championships competition during the races known as South 3 and 4, to be hosted by UC Irvine, at the Newport Harbor Yacht Club on Saturday and Sunday. The teams set sail at 11 a.m.
Among the other sailing teams are crews for USC, UCLA, UC Santa Barbara and UC San Diego.
To qualify for the championship races, the teams must finish among the top four crews.
"We're shooting to win," said team president Shane Young.
Last month, the 49 er team made some strong waves in the Rose Bowl Regatta, hosted by USC off the Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier.
The sailing team competed against East Coast crews — all from top-ranked schools in the nation — according to team president Shane Young. The team finished 11 th out of 30.
In a sailing conference Jan. 26 and 27 hosted by UC San Diego, the Long Beach sailing team placed fourth out of 15 in one set of races known as South 1 while nailing first place in the South 2 races.
The team members are Shane Young, John Hill, Kristen Barca, Foya Lazare, Mark Ryan, Nicholas Santos, Camille Hambly, Katie Glen, Ashley Hagler, Anna Rubino, Tyler Webb, Eric Hanna, Sarah Costa, Dana Hill, Lani MacLean, Lauren Hobson, Alex Newton, Trevor Hatchard, Ellison Ingram, Ruta Bandziulis and Goodwin Pompa.
Seal Beach police award
Seal Beach Police Cpl. Dave Barr was honored Thursday as the Law Enforcement Officer of the Year.
The Los Angeles Area Organized Retail Crime Association annual convention recognized Barr for a case he investigated while working as a detective.
The case's search warrants netted over 100,000 suspected stolen items, valued in excess of $1.2 million. The prime suspect is believed to have generated about $250,000 annually from the sale of stolen items, and the 10-year career of the suspect has been ended, said police spokesman Sgt. Ron La Velle.
Barr learned of the connection between two shoplifters (known as "boosters") and their broker (or "fence"), who allegedly specialized in organized retail crime, La Velle said.
The Seal Beach detective formed a network of investigators — both public and private — that led to the surveillance of numerous storage units, private residences and swap meets, resulting in the arrests, La Velle said.
Naval station drills
The Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station will take part in a series of week-long security exercises, starting Monday.
There may be times when the exercises cause increased traffic around the weapons station, delays in base access and gate closures, said base spokesman Gregg Smith.
Residents may also see increased security activity, and the station's "giant voice" mass notification loudspeaker system may be used.
Boating access to Anaheim Bay is unlikely to be affected.
For details on access restrictions to the base, including Anaheim Bay, the 24-hour command status line can be reached at 562-626-6000.

A lot of what I eat day-to-day involves some sort of "Bowl". When I'm looking to get a good hit of vegetables or just use up the bits and pieces in the fridge, a Bowl is the answer. More than a salad, but with a similar amount of a commitment, Bowls are thrown together easily and often amount to much more than their individual elements.
The most important component of a Bowl is a kickass sauce or dressing. Once you have a good sauce, you've got something worth eating.

About Trey Ratcliff
Trey Ratcliff is a photographer, artist, writer and adventurer. Each day, Trey posts a new photo to his website StuckInCustoms.com, which receives over half a million monthly page views. Trey has over 10 million social media followers via Google+, Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter.
Trey is best known as a pioneer in HDR photography. Chris Anderson from TED called Trey a "pioneer of HDR photography." HDR stands for High Dynamic Range, a technique whereby multiple levels of light are captured for a particular scene and then combined into a single photograph.

Jay-Z and Beyonce rent $1 Million nursery for daughter at sports arena
Listen to Beyonce on iHeartRadio | Listen to Jay-Z on iHeartRadio
(WENN) - Beyonce and Jay-Z have made sure their baby daughter has a luxury hang-out when mum and dad are watching the Brooklyn Nets by shelling out $1 million a year to rent a pricey nursery at the team's sports arena.
The rapper, who is a part-owner of the American basketball franchise, and his wife are regulars at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, where Jay-Z rang in the New Year on stage with Coldplay, and to avoid straying too far from little Blue Ivy, who turns one on Monday, the couple has agreed to splash out on a custom suite, complete with toys and a crib, for the toddler, according to reports.
A source tells UsMagazine.com, "Jay rents a luxurious basement suite for $1 million a year. It has an area for Blue filled with toys."
The VIP space also serves as a party place for entertaining the pair's pals: "It's all glass with a champagne bar and TV screen. Jay lets friends use his digs when he's not there."

Topic: What do I expect
Hello all,
First of all wonderful site! Thanks.
My 70yr old mom had a CT Scan and ERCP done this week. The biopsy results have not come back but the gastroenterologist is pretty sure the diagnosis is cholangiocarcinoma. He says the tumor is 5 cm, in the bile duct. He has temporarily stented one of the ducts.
I am sure over the next few weeks we will be presented with an array of options and decisions. I have been reading the postings on this forum and had a few questions:
a. My mom has a form of myositis called Inclusion Body Myositis. The gastro doc says that cholangiocarcinoma has been associated with many myopathies. Is there anyone on the forum with the same condition?
b. Her myositis makes it difficult for her to walk (legs, thighs are weak). She is slowly losing strength in her arms also. Given this, any opinions on how it affects treatment options?
c. We are seeing docs at Stanford. What are the best known locations for treatment of this condition?
Thanks for your responses. God bless you all.

Rice MBA Sara Hesson was one of two graduate and five undergraduate students in the nation to win a CREW (Commercial Real Estate Women) Network Foundation real estate scholarship this summer. The organization's mission is "to influence the success of the commercial real estate industry by advancing the achievements of women" and offers the recipients thousands of dollars in scholarship money to help them achieve their career goals.
Hesson developed a passion for real estate at a young age. "My father would take my brother and me on tours through the houses being built in our subdivision," she explains. "I was fascinated by all the components that made up each 'layer' of those custom homes." Her interest would later encompass the nuts and bolts, "the planning, estimating, scheduling, and financing" of the development process.
To gain the skills and education she'd need to pursue a career in her chosen field, Hesson earned a bachelor's degree in construction science with a minor in business administration from Texas A&M University. While completing the program, she worked for Manhattan Construction Company in Dallas. And upon graduation, she spent several years as a property analyst for Cost Segregation Services, a real estate tax advisory firm.
But Hesson decided she was ready to stretch her business knowledge and began considering MBA programs.
"The idea behind getting an MBA was transitioning into real estate consulting or development," she says. "I looked into SMU and Rice, but in addition to the beautiful campus, high-caliber professors and reputation of Rice, the opportunities for real estate in Houston just couldn't be beat."
Last year, Hesson was a first-year representative for the Real Estate Club at the Jones School. This year, as co-president, she's furthering her leadership skills with the organization, which among its many functions competes against other MBA programs in CASE competitions and helps students network with potential hiring companies.
Over the summer Hesson completed an internship with Whole Foods Market in Austin. "I'm a bit biased," the Austin native laughs, "but I had one of the cooler summer experiences. I provided corporate-level due diligence and helped create an implementation plan for new store development, remodels, and expansions. I'm interested in doing something similar when I graduate."
She says that it became evident during her internship that the MBA coursework had impacted her presentation skills. "I was constantly getting compliments on my PowerPoints, documents, deliverables and presentation of information. The MBA program has definitely improved those skills."
Hesson, who graduates May 2013, is looking forward to taking on another internship at a commercial real estate firm as part of her CREW Foundation scholarship.

Why not just use Cane & Abel, more basic and straight forward..

Hi, i'm using your script on BT4 and it is very useful, thank you.
But i have a problem: it works when i'm at home but when i'm connected in the university network the script blocks the victim browser, so he can't go on any site.
Why? Where's the problem?
Using this on BT4R1 but only seems to sniff the packets of the host of VMWare & just diplaying the other network nodes.
Using it on RT73 usb on monitor mode. Anything i can do to also sniff packets from other computers on the network?
EDIT: On my own network it only worked when I done specific i.p scans, But this isn't the problem when trying out other networks. nice script *solved*
Last edited by nlflux; 11-08-2010 at 03:12 PM.
im having a problem, maybe im not understanding this . .i have made the script executable but all it does and open wireshark and start sniffing. is there something im missing please help if possible im using BT4 R1
That is what the script is suppose to do it is doing other things that help with specific data but it's not a automatic MITM or easy password and data stealing toolkit.
I would suggest reading up on sniffing in general and learning about the tools the script uses and how they work if you don't understand it.
Are you maybe just double clicking on the .sh file? because if you do that, it will do as you described. Open a terminal and execute it with ./scriptname.sh or else right click on it, and within the properties select it to open in a new window.
Can I sniff WPA passw with this script?
Thank You!
A tip if you get acces denied when trying the ./yourscriptname.sh command,
use this command: chmod 755 yourscriptname.sh
and then try ./yourscriptname.sh again, should work this time!

From Kotaku:

Thought crimes lol
Looks like people worrying about violence in games have a harder time separating it from reality than gamers.
Kotaku says thaCLOSETAB
This is utter nonsense. When will people stop blaming videogames for violence. What about violent movies & books? Why don't they bullshit about that?
I don't see that blame for violence is being apportioned in the article. I see the followingQuote:
When will people stop blaming videogames for violence.
The suggestion is that games, like anything else that communicates a message, are able to educate. They are able to tell the player stupid and misleading things - say about the utility of torture - or to present things in a positive light that we, in general, would generally decry as unethical. Or they are able to tell the player about the world, or to provide moral instruction.Quote:
The purpose of this week's examination of the topic by the International Committee of the Red Cross was to present the committee's position on the trivialization of international humanitarian law violations in video games and discussing it with their wider members.
What's going here is that some people are wondering about the utility of the games to educate people both in the factual relevance of the various International Laws that apply to armed conflict, and somewhat differently, to push their (hardly niche) moral agenda about not killing civilians and prisoners of war etc.
I think it's interesting area to properly explore, particularly given how tediously jingoistic and moronic the depiction of violence is in many popular games. It's more worrying, to me, when they talk of legislation and the like.
There remains an ongoing dialogue in most Western countries about the depiction violence in almost any form of media, and regulation. For example, sexual violence in film remains heavily restricted, particularly but not only for general release, in the UK. (Notably, in that example context and exposition concerning the violence are significant factors in a BBFC decision. We may wish to consider games like MW3, and the extent to which they provide any kind of meaningful commentary of the violence that they depict.)Quote:
What about violent movies & books? Why don't they bullshit about that?
Yes I think its a really interesting thing to explore in games. Imagine an FPS talking about the toll of war on the self and on the populace instead of all these games saying WAR IS GREAT AMERICA IS AWESOME SUCK IT really loudly.Quote:
I think it's interesting area to properly explore, particularly given how tediously jingoistic and moronic the depiction of violence is in many popular games. It's more worrying, to me, when they talk of legislation and the like.
Even if you accept the premise that it is right to interfere with an art form to allow only morally acceptable messages to be conveyed, is this really a message you would want to send?
That soldiers (or is it just soldiers of western nations) will always and in all situations follow current international law, or if they don't will be punished for their sins?
That the death of civilians is always against the interests of those who kill them?
That (if I understand Zetetic correctly) everything defined as a war crime is automatically self defeating? So torture does not in fact help with the extraction of information, and it is only carried out by stupid people who mistakenly believe it does? Or that ethnic cleansing is never successful, if you are defining success as removing an ethnic population from a geographic area?
If anything it would seem to promote the play-war point of view. The illusion that war can be clean. That it can be perfected to a point where there are no moral grey areas, and can be conducted with a clean conscience before coming home for tea and medals.
I agree that the power of games to educate is an opportunity, and possibly an area of concern. The article states:
While having an ICRC rep wander on to the scene in MWn+1 might be odd, I can't help but think that publishers do have a bit of a responsability towards society, especially seeing the take up of their game is with a predominantly young male audience.Quote:
They also pointed out that since a few games do punish the killing of civilians or reward strategies that aim to prevent excessive damage, that including such rules is possible.
Their recommendations?
"It is regrettable that game producers hardly ever use this possibility to creatively incorporate the rules of international law or even representatives of such rules (such as the ICRC or the international criminal courts etc.) as specific elements in the course of the game,"
Those are all entirely reasonable points, mike2R. However, I think that you have to consider the real context that any contemporary discussion about the depiction of violence, and its utility, in video games takes place in. There isn't, in general, a wide range of views or any depth of message being conveyed by mainstream violent games - at least not by comparison to films or books.
The torture example is interesting one - I can think of a number of instances where torture is shown to effective, either with or without the player's intervention, in popular video games, and none where it is not. In each case, you may argue that this is not unrealistic or false or whatever - on any given occasion torture may prove useful - but examining all those works together and the trend is both misleading and worrying.
What's to be done? I don't know - these games are produced by variety of different individuals and companies, and I would oppose almost any kind of legislation on the issue. Particularly, as you say, an unthinking restriction would greatly diminish the ability to provide any sort of commentary on war.
(I always think Natural Born Killers is an interesting example here, from film. Cited often, infamously, by the Columbine perpetrators - although we should still be very careful about speculating about any causal effect it might have actually had - it's clearly expressing a deep concern about the direction of media attention and glorification. Such pieces, or even satires often enough, are stuck with this sort of duplicity I suppose.)
I think Kotaku's reporting hasn't really helped (does it ever?), and the possibility of someone arriving at a stupid conclusion ("We must criminalize all depictions of violation of war crimes!") doesn't mean that there isn't a discussion worth having.
What is this to me? All the games I play have wizards in.
I'm not entirely clear on where US and UK speech/expression laws differ, but in the US this is in direct opposition to the First Amendment. "Congress shall make no law [...] abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press."Quote:
If they agree those standards should be applied, the International Committee of the Red Cross says they may ask developers to adhere to the rules themselves or "encourage" governments to adopt laws to regulate the video game industry.
Issues like this are worth looking at and talking about, but legislating away ideas you dislike (even abhorrent ideas) is dangerous beyond words.
Notably, the United States is the Western government with perhaps the greatest emphasis on freedom of speech - and even that has various obvious compromises such as those concerning defamation and child pornography. (The US has compromises on 'obscene' material as well, but the standards are very, very high.) The United Kingdom, France and Germany, to take three examples, all have much more public stances on where they are perfectly prepared to compromise freedom of speech, to an extent, to serve another aim.
The BBFC (British Board of Film Classification - also does games as it happens) is such a compromise. Unlike the MPAA's film rating system, film certificates have the force of law in the UK (although its more complicated than the BBFC's certificate, as local authorities can set the certificate for showing in cinemas). Very few films will be denied any kind of certificate, and instead restrictions will be placed on distribution based on the content - ranging from age restrictions (12,15,18) to only being sold via licensed sex shops (18R). These days, the only films that are denied any certification are generally only those showing sexual violence for prolonged periods without any manner of 'mitigating' context.
Now, in the United States, such an arrangement wouldn't be constitutional - instead you have various voluntary organisations that only, ostensibly, have over the advisory aspect of the BBFC. I don't think that it's trivial to suggest that either approach is better than the other. What I think the BBFC does demonstrate is that it's possible for a Government to take a position on regulation without it really degenerating into what most of us would call censorship. It's worth noting though that it's taken decades - and much change in public opinion - for the BBFC to end up at such a position.
(There are also much more worrying restrictions in Britain, such as relatively vague and wide-ranging - if primarily concerned, again, with sexual violence - laws the criminalise even possession of certain materials. The BBFC's certificates do not affect possession.)
But, anyway, I think part of why we need to talk about these issues is because if we don't then there is a risk of censorship. Perhaps part of the outcome needs to be an attempt by large publishers to make games that, frankly, approach violence in a more grown-up fashion. The more that we talk of games as art or message-bearers, the more we have to consider what they are telling us. And I'm not sure that really happens at EA or whatever.
Great post, thanks for the rundown.

2004 Jeep Wrangler Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 2004 Jeep Wrangler based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
The throttle position sensor (TPS) may fail causing intermittent drivability problems like hard starting, stalling, and/or hesitation when accelerating. A failed TPS will require replacement, proper diagnoses should always be performed before replacing any parts.
Water can leak near the A-pillar, at the front edge of the driver and passenger side doors. An improved seal is available.
A Check Engine Light may illuminate indicating a "Cylinder #3 Misfire." This normally occurs in hot weather after the vehicle has been driven, parked for ten to twenty minutes, and then restarted. Heat from the exhaust vaporizes fuel inside the #3 fuel injector and causes the misfire. Installing an insulator sleeve normally lowers the temperature enough so the fuel will not vaporize.
Leaks at the front and/or rear differential pinion seal and from the transfer case are common. Leakage from the transfer case normally occurs at the case-mating surfaces and require removal of the transfer case to reseal.
Loose or worn suspension and steering components can cause a wobble or shaking in the steering wheel. It may happen at a certain speed and subside as the vehicle accelerates through the range. Tire balance can contribute to this as well.
Engine oil leaks from the valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket and timing cover gasket are common.
If water leaks into the passenger compartment and under the passenger side carpet, an heating, ventilation and AC (HVAC) drain hose is available.
A ticking type noise may be noted from the engine area due to an exhaust manifold that has cracked where the pipes are welded; cracked manifolds should be replaced.
Some models are susceptible to rear main oil seal failures in dirty or dusty conditions. As dirt and dust collect on the oil seal, the abrasion wears through the sealing surface. A spacer is used between the bell housing and engine that has a small slot in the 12 o'clock position. Filling this slot with RTV silicone and cleaning the seal area can help prevent damage to the seal.
When normal alignment practices do not bring components into the alignment specifications, offset upper ball joints are available.
The throttle body may accumulate an oily, black residue in the bore and on the throttle plate causing hard starting or possibly stalling when coming to a stop. The throttle body should be cleaned during regular maintenance but do not spray cleaners directly on or at the throttle position sensor (TPS) as this can damage the sensor.
Due to warped front brake rotors or variations in the thickness of the rotors, brake pulsations may develop. The best method to reduce pulsations is to use an "On the Car" brake lathe (as long as the rotors are suitable for turning). "On the Car" equipment can correct variations (or "runout") in the rotor surfaces because it also corrects variations in other components (e.g. the hub).

CHICAGO -- The National Automatic Merchandising Association and the National Association of Concessionaires have joined New Yorkers for Beverage Choices, a coalition formed to oppose New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's proposed ban on the sale of sugar-sweetened soft drinks in portions larger than 16 fluid ounces.
In joining the coalition, along with related associations, including the American Beverage Association, NAMA reinforced its recent statement: "As the nation's largest association representing the $42 billion vending, coffee service and foodservice management industries, we strongly oppose the proposed policy in New York City banning sweetened beverages in larger than 16-fl.oz. packages. Quite simply, proposals like this distract from real solutions to help keep consumers healthy."
NAC executive director Dan Borschke said that the National Association of Concessionaires is aggressively countering the proposed ban in New York City because it's a likely precursor for the rest of the country.
"In the late 1800s, Marshall Field coined the phrase that retailers and foodservice companies abide by to this day: 'The Customer Is Always Right.' The National Association of Concessionaires, its members and the concession industry believe that choice is an important element of American commerce," Borschke emphasized. "The proposed policy in New York City banning sweetened beverages in larger than 16-fl.oz. packages is arbitrary, capricious and ill-conceived."
The National Automatic Merchandising Association noted that its members offer millions of American consumers every day "exactly what they want: a choice in the selection of their snacks and beverages. Restricting consumer choice through public policy is not a viable solution," the vending association emphasized.
NAMA pointed out that sugar-sweetened beverages are a small and declining portion of the American diet -- just 7% of total calories. With 93% of our calories coming from other foods and beverages, the association said, the proposed New York City policy has missed the mark.
"Our NAMA members will continue to focus on educating our consumers on 'better for you' options and, perhaps more important, delivering a choice for our consumers in their snack and beverage selections, in the most convenient, affordable, reliable way possible."
The National Association of Concessionaires reported that, since 1998, average calories per serving from beverages are down 23%, and cited Centers for Disease Control data showing that, since 2000, added sugars consumed from soda dropped 39%.
"The concession industry does acknowledge that there is an obesity problem in the United States, and that is why choice is such an important element to our business," NAC continued. "A variety of new low-calorie, low-fat, sugar-free items are available, and will remain on concession stand shelves as long as the consumer continues to purchase them."
New Yorkers for Beverage Choices is supported by a wide variety of local businesses as well as regional and national trade associations; it has 306 members at this writing. The coalition's website describes the challenge: "According to the mayor, New Yorkers need help deciding what size beverage is appropriate. If this now, what's next?"

Now, I generally have some pretty strong feelings about proposing in public—namely that it is often the worst idea ever—but this one gets it right in a lot of ways. First, though yes, it's inevitable that SOMEONE would overhear (he probably hadn't banked on a TV reporter being there), he didn't try to get the attention of everyone attending the exhibit before popping the question. And second, Game of Thrones clearly holds a lot of fond memories for both of them, so really, the choice of locale couldn't be more perfect. Proposing on the Iron Throne > proposing in public. Well played, fans, and may you have many happy years together!
The traveling Game of Thrones exhibition features props, costumes, and more from the hit HBO series; it was in New York until yesterday and is slated to hit Sao Paulo next. After a stop in Amsterdam, It will finish up in Belfast where the show is shot.

Three tropical storms now on the map
WCBD-TV: News, Weather, and Sports for Charleston, SC
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
The tropics have gotten very active now that we've reach the peak of hurricane season. A third tropical system is now being tracked in the Gulf of Mexico. The latest in the mix, Tropical Depression 10 is located off the coast of Mexico. The center is about 115 miles from Veracruz. As of the 4AM advisory, winds were at 35 mph.
This depression is expected to strengthen and become Tropical Storm Ingrid later today. TD 10 looks to spin in the Gulf for the next couple of days before making landfall in Northern Mexico. The biggest impact will be lot of rain for Eastern Mexico. Some coastal locations could see up to 25 inches over the next several days.
Gabrielle looks to be winding down once again. With Friday morning's advisory, its been down graded to a tropical depression. The winds have died down to around 35 mph. Gabrielle is expected to dissipate by tonight. The remnant low will continue to track north missing New England.
Humberto is still hanging on as a hurricane with winds of 75 mph. But the forecast does show weakening as it continues to spin out in the Atlantic. Humberto will likely become a tropical storm by the end of Friday. Humberto will stay on its current track and is not expected to affect land.

Hundreds of "Star Wars" fans are running down the California coast this week, handing off lightsabers in a nearly 500-mile relay to benefit children with life-threatening illnesses.
The idea for Course of the Force began a long time ago, in a galaxy, far, far away -- San Diego in 2011.
"I was attending my 18th Comic-Con (International) when I came up with the idea," said Peter Levin, CEO of Nerdist Industries.
Levin, who had run a leg of the Olympic torch relay for the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, had a 5-year-old son "obsessed with lightsabers" and he was struck with the idea of combining the two.
"I literally picked up the phone and cold-called LucasFilm," Levin said. "We just all jumped into the deep end of the pool together and, fortunately, it went really, really well."
Last year, Nerdist -- the digital division of Legendary Pictures -- and LucasFilm teamed up with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to raise about $100,000 to grant the wishes of terminally ill children.
Runners pay $150 and sign up to run the quarter-mile segments, just like in the Olympic torch relay. What makes this run unique: many run in "Star Wars" regalia.
"There was no judging if you didn't wear the costume, but most people signed up weeks or even months ahead of time, so they wanted to get the costume right," Levin said. "They knew it was going to live on."
This year's relay is bigger and better, and started Tuesday more than 400 miles from Los Angeles at Skywalker Ranch, Star Wars creator George Lucas' Marin County home and headquarters.
"We're taking the lightsaber across the Golden Gate Bridge; we're doing some fun stuff," Levin said on Tuesday.
The Course of the Force arrives in Santa Monica on Friday, along with a "conival" -- a miniature "Star Wars" convention, including a concert by new wave band, The Spazmatics. The race continues on to Huntington Beach on Saturday and Oceanside on Sunday, concluding in San Diego on Tuesday in time for Comic-Con.
"Our plan to run at Comic-Con screaming with a lightsaber worked beyond our wildest dreams. People showed up! Lots of them! In cosplay! And we were able to grant more than 1,000 wishes for Make-A-Wish," Nerdist founder Chris Hardwick said in a press release. "Last year, we started in Santa Monica, this year, Marin, and hopefully next year, Tatooine."
Although there are still a few slots still available for runners, Levin said he expects up to 450 runners to participate before the race is done, including celebrities like Chris Colfer of "Glee," Adrianne Curry of "America's Top Model" and actor Wilmer Valderrama.
"The three to four days leading up to it last year, I started having anxiety: 'What have I done? No one's going to want to do this,'" Levin said. "The moment that someone rounded a corner and handed me a lightsaber -- because I ran a leg last year -- I knew we had something real here."

Once that work is done that means that the PVR Addon for MythTV could be used with a 0.25 backend. Hooray!
However, I don't have a 0.25 environment to test with.
Does anyone have a box with Myth 0.25 installed and could look to compile and test a branch of XBMC from my github repo?
UPDATE: All the necessary changes for testing with a Myth 0.25 backend have been committed to the myth-0.25 branch of my github repository
After cloning this repo, be sure to change to the myth-0.25 branch by using:
git checkout myth-0.25
Note that these patches are applied to plain ole XBMC, not one of the branches with PVR support. Once the changes have been tested as being suitably stable the changes will be committed to XBMC master and will then get updated in the downstream PVR related branches.
For information about running plain ole XBMC with MythTV please refer to http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=MythTV

I've had nicotine coursing through my veins for about half my life. And I received a healthy second-hand dose for the other half — when I was a kid — from my parents who smoked anywhere and everywhere. On occasion, my mother would even let me light her cigarettes for her. I think I was about 6, and I don't think too many people were surprised when I took up the habit as a teenager.

Acute cerebellar ataxiaCerebellar ataxia; Ataxia - acute cerebellar; Cerebellitis; Post-varicella acute cerebellar ataxia; PVACA
Acute cerebellar ataxia is sudden, uncoordinated muscle movement due to disease or injury to the cerebellum in the brain.
Acute cerebellar ataxia in children, especially younger than age 3, may occur several weeks after an illness caused by a virus.
Viral infections that may cause this include chickenpox, Coxsackie disease, Epstein-Barr, and echovirus.
Other causes of acute cerebellar ataxia include:
- Abscess of the cerebellum
- Alcohol, medications, and insecticides
- Bleeding into the cerebellum
- Multiple sclerosis
- Strokes of the cerebellum
- Vaccination
Ataxia may affect movement of the middle part of the body from the neck to the hip area (the trunk) or the arms and legs (limbs).
When the person is sitting, the body may move side-to-side, back-to-front, or both. Then the body quickly moves back to an upright position.
When a person with ataxia of the arms reaches for an object, the hand may sway back and forth.
Common symptoms of ataxia include:
- Clumsy speech pattern (dysarthria)
- Repetitive eye movements (nystagmus)
- Uncoordinated eye movements
- Walking problems (unsteady gait)
Exams and Tests
The doctor will ask ifthe personhas recently been sick and will try to rule out any other causes of the problem. Brain and nervous system examination will be done to identify the areas of the nervous system that are most affected.
The following tests may be ordered:
Treatment depends on the cause:
- If the acute cerebellar ataxia is due to bleeding, surgery may be needed.
- For a stroke, medication to thin the blood can be given.
- Infections may need to be treated with antibiotics or antivirals.
- Steroids may be needed for swelling (inflammation) of the cerebellum (such as from multiple sclerosis)
- Cerebellar ataxia caused by a recent viral infection may not need treatment.
Outlook (Prognosis)
People whose condition was caused by a recent viral infection should make a full recovery without treatment in a few months. Strokes, bleeding, or infections may cause permanent symptoms.
Possible Complications
Movement or behavioral disorders may (rarely) persist.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if any symptoms of ataxia appear.

Complementary interaction of wood and metal vibration frequencies.
The GMS Revolution Maple and Steel Snare Drum offers a unique blend of wood and metal sounds. It features an 8-ply maple shell with a thin layer of steel that is sprayed to the inside of the shell. The resonant sound of wood combined with the reflective qualities of metal provides a snare drum with extreme flexibility and versatility.
The GMS Revolution snare's steel interior is suited for players who desire volume and fullness of sound. The shell feels like wood, but the sound bounces around inside the drum the way it would with a metal snare. This gives you a little more of the "kang" sound that's associated with metal drums.
Equipped with GMS's Special Edition lugs and triple-flange hoops. Bearing edges are left uncoated to promote a warmer tone, while the metal coating amplifies attack, projection, brightness, and bite.
Have the feel and warmth of wood, with the cut and volume of metal. Order today.

A wrestler competing in the realms of his own sport might lose and the judoka who is competing in a differant sport might win? the odds are stacked against imo.
If i where to say that a wrestler would beat a judoka in judo i'd be laughed off here. Something to think about.
Lol @ wearing clothes like normal people.
this guy's thesis on grappling history. E.g., this:
Although admittedly this is a mosaic rather than pottery, and rather later than the Etruscans.
The reference he has in the thesis is "Roman mosaic from the baths at Gightis, 3rd century AD. Tunis, Bardo National Museum. G. Fradier, Mosaïques Romaines de Tunisie, 5th ed. (Tunis 1994), p. 138"
The picture of how it was painted to me by someone that knows more about judo than i, and probabally more than most people to be fair -
Leg attacks have been ommitted beacuse eastern europeans had that bent over style and attacked legs, eg double legs, firemans carry. Legs attacks were seen by some as being 'ugly judo'. So they where taken away and the japanese style was adopted i.e a more up right posture and spectator friendly as the throwing techniques are often 'cleaner' from this position.
You talk about judo pinning being realistic? -
The sport has become badly diluted. The realistic nature of the sport becomes less and less with every rule chance and its all about the spectator and participation levels and not the pureness of the sport as it once was imho.
Also, there is no ground n pound in judo, its adopted in mma which is of course 'no gi' which could be argued that a wrestling technique was employed to get him there, not judo. After all it is the oldest sport known to man and judo was spawned from it..
Augustus Gloop, Augustus Gloop, a great big greedy nincompoop!!
Hi, first post!
Just thought I'd jump in and say, I like it that throws like Morote Gari are now banned and would earn Hansukomake. I dont know why, I just didnt like the throw. And I know a few people who won round after round in comps just shooting for the legs. When they took the leg attacks away, those people really had to learn to break balance and attack properly. Someone I know, a very strong 1st Kyu has won a few tournaments in the past with morote garis. He has a good understanding of techniques but put him into shiai or even randori and he has such a problem grip fighting and breaking balance that he seldom manages to pull off throws like seois and koshi waza.
Hence now he is struggling to get points for his dan grade.
Leg attacks are still very much alive in tachi waza, as bomberh said as counters or combinations. They are super useful if you use the opportunities wisely. I still dont to be honest and need to make my awareness of leg attacking opportunities better, but its there all the same.
The difference leg wise though is that in Ne-waza competition within the BJA, leg locks are not allowed as submissions. But leg work IS allowed in movement and osaekomi etc.
Hi second post!
Just thought Id add, I think a wrestler is far more used to grappling without a gi and that would work in his favour. Put him in a gi and of course he would be totally lost against the control and maniuplation of a judoka with a gi to grip.
But, yes without, to a judoka who never fights without a gi, they would need to think from scratch about where they would hold for throws. Im sure they would work it out soon enough though. If you find a good grip to break balance and throw with uchi mata, you'd do it. I doubt the wrestler would defend against it would they? I dont know much about wrestling admittedly.
One thing to think of though. Judoka are very very good at avoiding landing on their backs. And when they throw someone, they should be ending up in an advantageous position.
Whenever I have watched a good judoka in MMA, even when they get thrown, they seem to land on top.

Welcome to the Thrigby Hall wildlife gardens website. We hope you find our website packed full of information but if you have any questions don't hesitate to get in touch.. Remember we're open all year round for you to come and visit us. See the beautiful gardens and the amazing wildlife we look after here in the gardens
When these Gardens opened in 1979 few of the words on the left were in use. Now we re-cycle rubbish, choose fuel efficient cars and we know that our climate is changing.
Gerald Durrell, Peter Scott and others warned of looming man made conservation disasters and they have been proven correct. Rates of species extinction are accelerating. It is too late to save many but some are being helped by the work of Gerald Durrell's Jersey Zoo and other converts to their message.
Belatedly, a European Union Directive now compels zoos to contribute to conservation. As these Gardens assigned all its collection to co-operative breeding programmes in 1994 - over 20 years ago, it fully complies with the commendable legislation.

Bridge bomb suspect guilty
(Akron) — Guilty on all counts for Joshua Stafford.
The 24-year-old Stafford was accused of plotting to blow up a bridge in the Cuyahoga Valley National Forest by using a cell phone to trigger explosives.
The prosecutors' final witness, lead investigator Ryan Taylor of the FBI, identified defendant Joshua Stafford on Wednesday as a key member of the conspiracy.
Stafford, who represented himself, tried to downplay his role in his cross-examination of Taylor.
The 23-year-old Stafford testified on his own behalf Thursday.
No bomb went off and no one was injured in the plot. Four co-defendants previously pleaded guilty and are serving prison terms.
"We all need to thank the FBI and its law enforcement partners," Dettelbach said. "The evidence in this trial made clear that their actions saved innocent lives. By being diligent, smart and responsible, law enforcement agents were able to not only literally defuse a dangerous situation, but they also were able to catch a dangerous group of violent men before they were able to harm anyone else."
"This defendant took it upon himself to operate the cell phone he believed to be the device that would detonate two IED devices and cause potentially significant damage to the Route 82 Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge," Anthony said. "This defendant's callous disregard for our community, all in the name of making his own ideological views known, reinforces the need for law enforcement to work diligently to confront and stop terrorists from committing violent acts against our fellow citizens."
Stafford is the last of five men to be found guilty for their roles in a conspiracy to destroy the Route 82 Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge. Cars travel over the bridge, which crosses from Brecksville, Ohio to Sagamore Hills, Ohio over the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
Douglas L. Wright, of Indianapolis, was sentenced to 11 ½ years in prison followed by a lifetime of supervised release.
Brandon L. Baxter, of Lakewood, Ohio, was sentenced to nine years and nine months in prison followed by a lifetime of supervised release.
Connor C. Stevens, of Berea, Ohio, was sentenced to eight years and one month in prison followed by a lifetime of supervised release.
Anthony M. Hayne, 35, of Cleveland, was sentenced to six years in prison followed by a lifetime of supervised release.
Those four men pleaded guilty last year to conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction, attempted use of weapons of mass destruction and malicious use of an explosive device to destroy property used in interstate commerce.
Hayne, Wright, Baxter, Stevens and Stafford were arrested on April 30.
According to court documents, Wright, Baxter, Hayne, Stevens and Stafford were self-proclaimed anarchists who formed into a small group and considered a series of evolving plots over several months.
The initial plot involved the use of smoke grenades to distract law enforcement in order for the co-conspirators to topple financial institution signs atop high rise buildings in downtown Cleveland, according to the complaint.
The plot later developed to the utilization of explosive materials. The defendants conspired to obtain C-4 explosives contained in two improvised explosive devices to be placed and remotely detonated, according to the complaint.
The defendants discussed various bridges and physical targets in and around the Cleveland, Ohio metropolitan area over the course of several months. The final plan resulted in the Route 82 Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge being the designated target.
The public was never in danger from the explosive devices, which were controlled by an undercover FBI employee. The defendants were closely monitored by law enforcement. The explosives that the defendants allegedly purchased and attempted to use were inoperable and posed no threat to the public.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Duncan T. Brown, Justin E. Herdman and Thomas E. Getz following an investigation by the FBI and the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force.

BSU comes to the Cape beginning in January
News & Events
Students who live on or near Cape Cod will have the opportunity to stay local and graduate from Bridgewater State University, thanks to the opening in January of a new facility in Yarmouth.
As part of the university's mission, and spurred by President Dana Mohler-Faria who hails from the Cape, the new location off Route 28 will offer master's degrees, bachelor's degree completion in partnership with Cape Cod Community College, certificate and non-credit programs.
"It's our intention to be a real presence here on the Cape," the president said.
Fred Clark, executive vice president and vice president of external affairs, said the Cape has always been part of BSU's service area. "Our hope would be that our Cape Cod graduates will find a pathway to employment on the Cape, if that's what they want," he said.
Dr. Mary Fuller, director of continuing and distance education, said the opening of the facility ends a search by the institution that began more than three years ago, and it aims to fill an educational void on the Cape for degree programs.
"There are a number of people that started college and stopped because of family reasons or for work reasons, who all of a sudden say, 'I've been managing this company, but I need a bachelor's degree, need that credential, to move on.' That would be the type of person we're looking to attract … the adult market, ages 25-45," she said.
Although Dr. Fuller is also is heading a search committee for a director to handle day-to-day operations at the facility.
The MacArthur School in Yarmouth is the site for the new BSU campus. It is undergoing approximately $3 million in renovations, as the university converts the former elementary school to a state-of-the-art educational facility.
By the time renovations are complete in January 2017, it's possible the facility could host as many as 800 students. Four classrooms will be available in January, growing to 12 by the completion of the project. The university has a five-year lease with the Town of Yarmouth for the building, and options to renew it twice.
Mr. Clark said the university will likely feature programs for early childhood education, social work, certified public managers, and non-credit certificates in small business and non-profit management. He is working in conjunction with Dr. Anna Bradfield, executive director of university initiatives, to develop the new site and its curriculum.
"We're really comfortable with this first group of programs going forward, but we told people in every single meeting we've had that we will shape our programs to meet the needs of Cape Cod," he said.
The university's history on the Cape dates back to the early 1970s when Hyannis State College experienced some difficulties and Bridgewater was brought in to run the school in its last two years of operation.
"I like to tell people down in the Cape that we're not really coming to Cape Cod, we're coming back to Cape Cod, in some regards," Mr. Clark said.
Approximately 500 students from the Cape take classes on BSU's main campus. Of those, 400 commute and 85 percent say they would consider completing their degrees on the Cape.
"We've realized that there's been quite a flight of young people from the Cape," Mr. Clark said. "They generally leave the Cape pursuing higher-ed opportunities or jobs and, in most cases, they don't come back. Having a permanently sited higher-education facility on the Cape might help to retain, maybe even attract, some folks who otherwise would be crossing the bridges and not coming back."
Finding a facility and moving in has involved more than 30 meetings with local officials and area chambers of commerce, said Dr. Fuller. Many of those folks also saw the need for a local BSU facility.
"There's a large percentage of people that live on the Cape who have an associate's degree or some college attainment. They would benefit from having bachelor's completion programs," Dr. Fuller said. "We're looking forward to working with Cape Cod Community College to identify students that, after completing their two-year degree, want to and stay on the Cape to finish their bachelor's degrees."
Mr. Clark said many people at BSU have been involved in the opening of the Yarmouth campus – from facilities management to librarians and many others.
"This is an example of Bridgewater State University coming together, from faculty and staff to administrators, to do something innovative in the region and deliver effectively," he said. "I'm always proud of the folks on this campus when they come together like this to make it happen." (Story by Steve Ide)

Downey Police officials are warning residents to be wary of door-to-door solicitors after money was stolen from an elderly woman.
On Tuesday night, a suspect in her 50s knocked on a door in the 8500 block of Cherokee Street. She asked the woman who answered the door if she could wash her windows and use the restroom, said Sgt. Brian Baker of the Downey Police Department.
The homeowner let the woman into the house, and both of them went into the kitchen.
Moments later, the homeowner walked out of the kitchen and a saw a 17- or 18-year-old suspect walking down the hallway toward the front door, Baker said.
She immediately told both suspects to leave her home. After checking her bedroom, she discovered the male suspect stole $25 from her purse, Baker said.
Police believe the older suspect has an "M" tattoo on her left upper chest. Both suspects might have been in a dark colored, four-door vehicle.
Anyone with information about this case should call Detective Jerry Price, 562-904-2359. Anonymous tips can be submitted by calling 800-222-TIPS (8477), or texting the letters TIPLA, plus the tip, to CRIMES (274637), or using
