Post subject: Future of Green Bay/Draft
Note: Green bay trades Najeh Davenport or puts compensation on him and lets him go for 2nd and 3rd round picks. Trade Darren sharper after sharper wont take a paycut for 2nd and 3rd round picks. Franchise bubba franks and then when a team makes a deal they get 1st and 3rd round picks for him. Then by using the draft we get the future of green bay
1. Resign Marco Riveria.
2. Bubba Franks gets signed by either Detroit or Denver. Green bay gets 1st and 3rd round picks. Broncos get a 3rd round pick for droughns
3. Sharper gets traded to either the patriots or cowboys for 2nd and 3rd round picks.
4. Davenport gets traded to either pittsburgh, san diego, or the giants.
1. Channing Crowdher-LB- This move allows barnett to move to natural position and adds depth. Also should help with the pass rush and make our linebacker core a solid one.
other options Heath Miller
1. Erasmus James-DE-Wisconsin: Pass rusher the packers needed to get added pressure to the QB'S. Lessens double teams of kabeer and also a pretty good force against the run.
Other options: David Pollack
2. Corey Webster-CB-LSU- The packers draft this solid cornerback for either to be harris's replacement or to challenge carrol for his starting spot. Good corner with very good speed who is a shut down corner and very physical. Should help out in bates system. Matches up better against taller wide receivers.
2. Donte Nicholson-S-Oklahoma: Draft Sharper's replacement and get a good one. Is fast can tackle and hit and gets interceptions.
other options: Ernest Shazor-S-Michigan
2. Alex Smith-TE-Stanford: Bubba's replacement has good hands and pretty good blocking skills and is faster than franks.
Other Options: Jason Campbell-QB-Auburn
2. Mike Patterson-DT-USC- Draft this playmaker who is a little bit undersized but makes more plays than hunt and gets more sacks. Should make our line a very good one.
Barret Rudd-LB-Nebraska
3. Josh Bullocks-S-Nebraska: Romans replacement and him and nicholson form up a good duo who should make plays for many years to come.
other Options: Kyle Orton-QB-Purdue
3. Kyle Orton-QB-Purdue: Favre's heir. Draft favre's replacement and get a good one too. Gunslinger with good accuracy competiveness, leadership skills. Sits for a year or two and gets to work on his game and learns how to take snaps under center.
3. Marion Barber-RB-Minnesota: If Davenport leaves draft this speedy running back who could be Ahman greens replacement if he gets injured or doesnt get signed on to a long term deal.
Other Options: Anthony Davis-RB-Wisconsin- Taylor Stubbifield-WR-Purdue
4. Taylor Stubbifield-WR-Purdue: Draft ortons playmaking buddy who adds depth and could start if ferguson or driver gets hurt.
5. Offensive line
6. Bryan Randall-QB-VT-Backup to orton and adds depth and athleticism to club. Could fight for starters position if orton doesnt work out.
7. Jim Leonhard-PR/S-Wisconsin: Gives special teams a boost and can play safety

The packers need to keep veterens, esspecially if favre stays. He needs to be surrounded by proven talent to get him back to the super bowl. He will not get there with so many rookies and what is the point for him coming back if he doesn't get a chance at another championship?
R.I.P. Pat Tillman, thank you for showing us what is really important in life.

You know, Darren Sharper is consistently the fall guy for all the Packer's problems everytime the Defense stinks it up. It happened in '99, and it's happening again this year. Did Sharper have a good year last year, no of course not. But Sharper is always a victim of the scheme he's in. When Donatell was here, he was a borderline Pro Bowler every year (and some years a bonafide Pro Bowler). The fact is the guy's a hell of a talent, and especially since Jim Bate's scheme favors Sharper's style of play, they'd be nuts to let him go.
Furthermore, Green Bay needs another Safety already since Mark Roman has been a failure, so now according to your scenario, we'd have two rookies starting at safety?!?!? A rookie is only going to take you so far before he makes a big mistake in a big game (allah Nick Barnett on fourth and twenty six).
A better scenario would be hang onto Sharper, hang onto Davenport, and trade Ahman Green and a Draft pick to Miami for Zach Thomas, and Sammy Knight. Ahman Green is on the downside of his career, and both these guys have a year or two left in them. Tony Fisher, Najeh Davenport and Walter Williams can carry the load, plus none of them have the fumble problems Green does. Plus, by trading Green, you open up cap room to go resign Bubba Franks and Marco Rivera, and you can go after Shaun Ellis, and let Jim Bates go to work with a suddenly extremely talented defense.
In the draft, Heath Miller would be a steal in the First Round, you also need a Guard, and Charlie Frye has gutsy written all over him. He's the guy I want to take over for Favre.

Post subject: Green wont get traded before davenport.
Ahman green is the bread and butter for our running game. Why trade green because he fumbles. So does davenport. Also davenport isnt as fast as green and is injury prone. Green missed 1 game this year. Davenport pretty much missed half the season. I think sharper is a way good player but lets be honest if he doesent take a pay cut then they might let him stay or he could get cut. In all likelihood i figured that if he was having bad feelings towards green bay then why not try and get draft picks for him and build a talented defense. Also it wasnt all of Barnetts fault. Harris, mckenzie and all the linebackers screwed up on that play, Sharper wasnt in position and neither was anderson or jue. And it might not have happened if donatell didnt let mcnabb have all the time in the world to throw that pass.

You wouldn't trade Green entirely because he fumbles, you trade him because he's starting to lose a step or two. No, Davenport will never be the starter, you are right he is too undurable, Fisher would be the starter, Davenport and Williams would be used in a reserve role.
What's better have a superb defense with an above average run game, or have a underachieving defense with an exceptional run game?
The Rams game last year and the Vikings game from '02 proved that Green Bay doesn't need Ahman Green to have a ground attack. Fisher, Davenport, and Williams would do just fine, and don't forget this is still one hell of a good passing team. Brett Favre and that line can make a lot of halfbacks look exceptional.
By the way, Green missed two games last year, and Davenport didn't nearly have the amount of fumbles Green did.

Another by the way, Ahman Green is not the bread and butter of the run game the offensive line is. And although Nick Barnett was not the only one out of position, he made the biggest gaff on the play, since he was the primary person who was supposed to cover Mitchell. Yes, there were other people who screwed up but my point is rookies make mistakes, and I don't want two rookies starting in the same group on any position on the field, especially the hardest position on the defensive side of the ball. Either trade for Sammy Knight, or sign Izell Reese as a Free Agent, but Knight will be a lot cheaper than Reese.

Sometimes you just have to go with the best and these are the best!"—Judy Taylor/ Denver, CO

Thank you, Dragon Door, for providing such high quality products and great service! I appreciate that the bell was combined in a package with the Kettlebell Goddess DVD - Andrea's workout is fabulous!
I started out thinking a bell was a bell and bought a cheap 35lb bell from a local big box sports shop. The difference was amazing. Dragon Door bells just have a look and feel to them that can't be beat. The bells mean pure business and really help push me to my best. The 12k bell is a great place for a "little guy newby like" myself to start on single hand swings. I already have my order in for a 14K and 20K. I wouldn't buy anywhere else!
I wanted a 12kg kettlebell to add to my ever growing arsenal of bells (16kg & 20kg) , Dragondoor is the only choice for this quality product. They be a little more in cost than the competition, but I will pay this premium for the best money can buy. Feel, lift and compare and you'll understand. Thank you again Dragondoor!
I work in a gym, and when I see other kettlebells, I want to laugh. Dragon Door has figured out the secret to constructing the perfect kettlebell. I wouldn't buy them from anyone else!
I own 4 kettle bells, each from a different brand. 1 is a Dragon Door and 3 are other brands. They are all good for exercise purposes. The fit and finish of the Dragon Door kb is above and beyond each of the 3 other brands which I own and use. It feels much better in my hand because of the surface which has just the right combination of smoothness and grip. If you want the best you have to pay a little extra but I believe it is well worth it.
I purchased this size kettlebell for my wife's future progression from the 8kg kettlebell. Quality is, of course, superior to all other brands. Thank you for providing such high quality products.
I know the DD bell is expensive...but in the long run it's cheaper to buy a first class product. Spending the money up front on a quality product that you'll never have to replace. This is that product. It feels great, does what it's supposed to do, and will no doubt last a lifetime. I like this weight a lot, even though I'm a man, I'm in my late-50's and can't afford to get injured. I wanted a weight that would get my attention but not strain my joints, since I am prone to tendonitis. The 26 pounder is perfect. I got two because I like the "farmer carry" and holding both while doing squats.
This was my 6th KB purchase thru DD. I have never used another brand because I have always been completely satisfied. This is my first purchase with the new coating and really love it.
After being very fit all my life with everything from Tae Kwon Do to rock climbing and mountain biking, I hit 60 ... had a heart valve repair and got horribly out of condition, It was difficult for me just to get up off the floor when I sat to put wood in the wood burning fireplace. In just 6 weeks with a 12 kilo kettlebell I've improved dramatically. The "real life" strength that you develop is amazing. The difference to your "core" is dramatic. Wish I'd discovered kbells years ago!
I am really enjoying my kettlebell. My trainer had let me borrow one of his 18 pound kettlebells while my own was on order. He had purchased this kettlebell from some other site and he himself admits that it was of lesser quality. When I received mine, I was so pleased with the finish and the handle. It is definately a high quality product and when I work my strength up, I will order my next kettlebell from DragonDoor as well.

Oasis To Reissue '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?'
Listen to Oasis Radio on iHeartRadio
Oasis fans can look forward to another reissue this year. The band's debut Definitely, Maybe got the deluxe re-release treatment back in May, and now an expanded version of (What's the Story) Morning Glory? is due out in September.
The Special Edition comes with a remastered version of the hit album, plus two discs of unheard demos, live material, B-sides, and more. It's part of Big Brother Recordings' plan to reissue Oasis' first three albums to coincide with the band's 20th anniversary this year.
Fans can visit Oasisinet.com to pre-order the new (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, which is scheduled to be released on September 30th.

Like Mopsy from the Tale of Peter Rabbit, this yarn is one good little bunny. It's the perfect blend of downy Angora and fine merino (and bit of nylon) to create an incredible softness that's a downright joy to knit. It's the perfect lofty yarn to wrap your body in a sweater's-worth of featherweight warmth or the ultimate next-to-skin pleasure for a hat, scarf, cowl or wrist-warmer. It's so luxurious, you'd think it came from a goat, not a rabbit.
Colorway shown: Everyday Grey
All measurements are approximate.
Content: 80% Merino / 10% Angora rabbit hair / 10% Nylon
Weight: 7.75 oz / 220g
Length: 420yds / 384m
Gauge: 4 stitches per inch (2.5 cm) on size 9 (5.5mm) needles
Note for the Moonstruck Sweater: Knit to gauge, the fabric is very soft and swishy, and lends breathability to the angora content. Be sure to wet-block or wash your swatch and check your washed gauge – Mopsy opens up quite a bit with washing! A Moonstruck knit from Mopsy will be very fluid and sport a fine halo from the angora. Not a windblocking fabric, but an elegant, cozy knit.

'The Sabres entered the game without seven players due to injury, and neither Tyler Ennis nor Colin Stuart finished this one. Ennis aggravated an ankle injury, and is day-to-day, according to Sabres coach Lindy Ruff. The team didn't disclose Stuart's injury, but Ruff said, "We lost him for a good period of time. He's probably in the month range or something like that."'

Do you consider the environmental impact when choosing a print or e-book format?
I admit, I've only thought very briefly about this question and it doesn't enter into my decision to read a book in print or digital format. My decision is based primarily on availability.
I recently came across a short article on this very topic. It gave me pause. The author considered the trees used to make paper, chlorine bleach to dye the paper, use of recycled paper, amount of ink, energy needed to produce the ink, lifespan of a typical e-reader, and carbon emissions from production and use of an e-reader.
Bottom line conclusion from the author: an e-reader is the more environmentally responsible choice for those who read more than 23 books per year.
Now that you know this, will it make a difference in the format you choose?

Soundgarden releases 20th anniversary 'Superunknown,' hint at more reissues
Listen to Soundgarden on iHeartRadio
Soundgarden's deluxe Superunknown reissue arrives in stores this week, but the band is already looking at giving another album the same treatment.
Guitarist Kim Thayil tells Billboard there is plenty of bonus material to go along with Superunknown's predecessor Badmotorfinger, and they're thinking about releasing it for the record's 25th anniversary in 2016.
Thayil says they've also been putting together a career-spanning B-sides collection. But he adds that right now the band is mostly concerned about being current and vital. Thayil, however, didn't share any details about a possible follow-up to Soundgarden's last new studio effort, 2012's King Animal.
In the meantime the band is scheduled to kick off a European tour next week, followed by a co-headlining trek with Nine Inch Nails starting July 19th in Las Vegas.

Indians' Lindor is one slick shortstop
Defensive Gems: Top prospect learned position in Puerto Rico
By Andrew Pentis / Special to MLB.com | February 4, 2013 4:12 AM ET
As documentarian Ken Burns noted, baseball is the one game in which the defense -- not the offense -- possesses the ball. With this in mind, MiLB.com continues its "Defensive Gems" series. Over the next seven weeks, we will feature a top prospect at each position who also happens to be an elite defender. In deciding which players to focus on, this reporter polled six scouting directors and relied on his own research. After identifying a keeper at catcher, we move to shortstop, where the D-backs' Didi Gregorius, the Astros' Jiovanni Mier and the Red Sox's Jose Iglesias were narrowly edged by the Indians' Francisco Lindor.
¿Qué harías?
Those were the words that Indians farmhand Francisco Lindor heard often while growing up in Caguas, Puerto Rico.
What would you do?
Whether he was being coached up by his father or, just as likely, following around his brother at Villa Blanca ballfield, Lindor was always expected to respond.
"The most important thing they taught me was instincts," Lindor said. "My dad would always play this game with me when I was younger and we were sitting down watching a game, or we could be in the car and he would tell me about a play and he'd say, 'What would you do?' And I'd just tell him."
Despite his age (19 years), pedigree (eighth overall Draft slot in 2011) and potential (14th overall prospect ranking in 2013), Lindor looks back on those days like they were his best. Retreating further, to the very beginning: When he was 5, Lindor took up the game for good, following the older kids in his family from position to position -- with stops in center field and behind home plate -- until they all settled at shortstop.
"I remember it was two fields, one big and one little one. That's where I used to play, on the little field, and my brother and my cousin used to play on the big field," added Lindor, who practiced there every day and played as many as three or four games a week. "The infield was dirt and the outfield was grass and the fans, I loved the fans. To me, that was where everything started, Villa Blanca. Besides the front of the house, that was where baseball was born for me."
From Caguas to Cleveland, with a stop at a Florida high school in between, Lindor was seen initially as a plus defender. Scouts, both in and out of the Tribe's front office, took note of those instincts to play the infield's most arduous position -- and play it well. So the conditional query became: What would you do ... to improve, Francisco?
After signing in August of his Draft year and around the time of his quick five-game stint at short-season Mahoning Valley, Lindor started forming an answer with the help of a former Indians shortstop/third baseman. Travis Fryman, now a special assistant in the organization, shared the basics of turning a ground ball into an out.
- Before the pitch is thrown, keep your feet moving.
- After the ball is struck, work your way toward it.
- When the ball nears, field it in the middle of a set stance.
"Then bring it back to my core," Lindor finishes, "and the rest is history.
"[Fryman] hasn't really changed me. Not moving my glove too much, bringing the ball back to my core. Nothing major, one or two tweaks. He's got this quote he likes to say, 'Little things take care of themselves over the course of a long season.'"
Over the course of Lindor's first full season in 2012, a 122-game campaign at Class A Lake County, he was charged with 18 errors. His .968 fielding percentage was good for third among Midwest Leaguers with at least 100 games at short.
Those who watched his year with the Captains pointed to three areas needing improvement. Each seems achievable through experience.
- Positioning himself for hitters and per situations.
- Timing his internal clock for throws to first base.
- Making the routine as well as difficult plays.
"I feel I'm good at it, but I definitely have some work to do," Lindor said of his development. "Even, God willing, I play in the bigs for a long time and bring the Indians a lot of championships -- help the Indians to a lot of championships -- I'm still going to be learning then. I'm going to learn every day, every time I step onto the field."
Now a new question: What makes a good shortstop or, rather, what makes Lindor a potentially exceptional one? Pointed out most often is his range, but many solid infielders have that tool. What separates Lindor right away, it will be said, is his right arm.
"What impressed me were a few plays he made going from his left up the middle and being able to throw back across his body," said David Wallace, Lindor's manager at Mahoning Valley in 2011, at Lake County in 2012 and, very likely, at Class A Advanced Carolina this spring. "I think that shows his special arm strength. He can make any throw and throw from all different angles."
Ask Lindor about his right shoulder and the 175-pound teen credits his work ethic.
"That comes from a lot of throwing," he said. And he might be right. In the two years Lindor has teamed with Wallace, he's drawn his skipper's ire once: When, before a game one day last season, Lindor couldn't find Wallace or another coach to hit him extra ground balls, he convinced the Captains trainer to grab a bat.
"Francisco, I like to say, was born to play shortstop," Wallace said. "Comparisons are tough, but it came up a couple times throughout the summer: He is a little Robinson Cano-ish. I hate to compare [Yankees second baseman] Robinson Cano to an A-ball kid just because of what Robinson Cano is, but just how natural they both are out there defensively. They both look comfortable and confident."
Sort of like they know exactly what they would do with the ball.

If you do not install other apps then a standard install of BT5 R2 will take approx 14 GB, so you could have your partition of about 16 GB.
I have Dual boot Win7 and BT 5 R2. I am accessing my data from windows and also from Linux easily. Here is my arrangement
My BT partition is 23 GB. I have installed many other applications like k3b, kget, ktorrent, vmware, opera ... etc.
I create a separate NTFS partition of 54 GB to store data from Windows and as well as from Linux so i can easily access my data from both the OSes.
As we can not have HOME folder on NTFS so i moved Documents, Videos, Music, Downloads etc folders to that NTFS partition.
This way you can use your BT partion only to install BT and other progams and keep your data on other partition.
I am also a newbie for Linux, i do not know if this arrangement is good or not, but it is working well for me.

Jim Riddux alongside Henrique Santana, that seems fair?
Printable View
8 man tourneys are always different. Your going to get heavy favourites. Jim ruddux probably isn't going to win. But he comes to fight and as conpetatant
That was sarcasm you understand.
The man once started his TV show with "Mixed Martial Arts is a mix of martial arts."
Also, when interviewing Neil Grove, he remarked: "For those of you who don't know, Bellator is the biggest fight organization in the world. The UFC is the biggest brand but Bellator is actually the biggest organization."
The dude's a joke.
He will come to fight. Unlike many many others
Yes he will be the underdog but nothing new there
Your points are picky and silly and don't fit in with the context of today's Mma. It's not unusual to have an outsider fight a top 5 guy ( bonnar v jones) and that is what's happening here. Ruddux is capable enough to try fight back. That's fine by me
Brad how about getting some of the answers from the OP from Mark before the show proceeds?
Hey Bean sorry about the delay, I have been crazy busy. I will contact Mark and have an article prepared by Wednesday or thursday answering your questions. Im pretty sure Mark is taking things in the correct direction and im hearing blood tests as well as some other things are in place. Mark requested that i film the weigh ins so that people can see them but im just not in a position to do that this week, he also offered to cover the costs but its not a financial issue. Like I said im not reporting on the show but I will give a fair concise opinon on it afterwards and hopefully for everybody it will be positive. You have my word that if its a train wreck i wont be painting any pretty pictures.
yeah sure Bean ill do that if boogeyman doesnt sort it first

Unfortunately 12 days post op he had to return to Theatre to have his abdomen drainied , due to a severe infection , he then developed renal faliure . he was in the ICU hooked uo to all sorts of medication and a dialysis machine , they kept him sedated and on a respirator as after the inital op he developed encephalopathy and was very confused and paranoid. Unfortunately after 3 days in the ICU he passed away . All his family were with him and he looked very peacefull.
I do not regert taking the chance on the operation and have the utmost praise for the surgeon and his team.

Related story: Los Angeles/South Bay
Fueled by a Democratic supermajority and a bumper crop of new faces, California lawmakers launched their new two-year session on Monday, planning to turn their immediate attention to health care and the state budget.
Democrats have a two-thirds majority in the Assembly and Senate for the first time since 1883. That means they have the power to approve new taxes and get constitutional amendments on the ballot without a single Republican vote, but they said Monday they will be cautious not to abuse that new authority.
In his remarks to the new Assembly, Speaker John Perez, D-Los Angeles, noted the body has a "sober, profound responsibility" facing it this coming year.
"We have a special moment as we begin a new legislative year," Perez said.
That supermajority may be short-lived because several seats are expected to open up in 2013 for special elections as members seek other elected offices before their legislative terms expire.
The new class is also marked by the highest number of freshman legislators - 39 - since 1966. But that's not likely to be matched anytime soon, as a new revision to term limits will let incumbents remain in the same office for a longer time.
The previous term-limits law restricted legislators to six years in the Assembly and eight in the Senate. This summer, voters decided to allow lawmakers to be re-elected to either or both houses for up to 12 years.
One of the top issues to be tackled by the Legislature this year is preparing for the complex implementation of federal health care reform in California by 2014, which will require a host of new state laws and regulations. Gov. Jerry Brown is expected to call a special session next month to tackle that issue.
A second big challenge will be once again tackling the state budget, which has faced multibillion-dollar deficits for years. Although with the state's moderate recovery, that budget gap has now been whittled down substantially.
"The good news is we have dealt with the state's structural deficit and now are left with about a $2 billion carryover," said Assemblyman Bob Blumenfield, D-Van Nuys, who is continuing as chairman of the Assembly Budget Committee. "It's a lot of money, but it's nowhere near the $50 billion (shortfall) we faced a couple of years ago."
Democrats are also expected over the next two years to seek changes in Proposition 13 to make local tax increases easier to accomplish, and they promise to look into finding new revenues from closing tax loopholes.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento, said Democrats will be cautious with the new powers voters handed them, despite expected pressure to move quickly.
"There's going to be a lot of noise, a lot of elbows, a lot of pushing and pulling," Steinberg told reporters after the swearing-in ceremonies. "But I don't think we should come hurtling out of the gates talking about taxes. Down the line, as we look at the budget, we can always reassess."
One other change that lawmakers are facing this year are lower salaries, after the California Citizens Compensation Commission voted in May to reduce their salaries by 5 percent. But they'll remain the nation's highest- paid legislators, with a base salary of $90,525 a year.
Gov. Brown's salary will drop to about $165,000, down from $174,000. Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom will be making about $124,000, and Attorney General Kamala Harris will be paid less than $144,000.
Some legislators wasted no time Monday in introducing new bills.
Assemblyman Mike Morrell, R-Rancho Cucamonga, submitted a bill Monday that would require anyone who violates parole by failing to register as a sex offender to be sent to state prison instead of a county jail.
Senate Minority Leader Bob Huff, R-Walnut, has yet to develop his own legislative package pending meetings with his staff and submissions from local governments within his district and constituents, spokesman Bill Bird said.
Priorities for Senate Republicans, Bird said, will include seeking pension reform beyond the new law that raises new state workers' retirement ages while also capping benefits.
Another priority will be managing anticipated tax revenues from Proposition 30, the governor's tax increase approved by voters last month.
"We want to make sure that the revenues coming in, that the voters are entrusting us with, is spent wisely," Bird said.
Inland Empire homeowners who are still suffering from the foreclosure crisis could see some relief from a bill proposed by state Sen. Ron Calderon, D-Montebello.
Calderon's Senate Bill 30 would provide a means for financially troubled homeowners who sell their homes via short sale to avoid unwelcome tax bills.
A short sale takes place when a homeowner sells a house for less than the amount owed on the mortgage. Under current law, whatever amount of outstanding debt is not covered by the sales price would be treated as taxable income after Jan. 1.
"You can imagine the hit on a financially distressed homeowner who loses their house," said Rocky Rushing, Calderon's chief of staff.
Calderon's bill would not require homeowners to pay taxes on forgiven mortgage debt after a short sale.
Some Inland Empire community leaders said they hope to see stronger achievements out of the Legislature this year.
Paul Granillo, the CEO of the Inland Empire Economic Partnership, said reforming the California Environmental Quality Act should be among lawmakers' top priorities during the current session.
Specifically, he wants the law to be amended to make it more difficult for Californians to use environmental law as a means to stop construction projects they don't like.
"To put it bluntly, there need to be some checks in place that don't allow just anyone to use a suit to stop a project," Granillo said.
Political analyst Allan Hoffenblum, who tracks the Legislature for his Target Book, suggested the supermajority will not lead to the massive changes that many expect. Democrats, he said, are not always in lockstep with each other.
"This is a very diverse group of Democrats," Hoffenblum said. "It is not as if they were all San Francisco liberals. We even have some who signed a no-tax pledge.
"Also, there are a large number who will be running for vacancies in the state Senate, so they will be careful with what they do. And you also have a lot of Democrats who were elected by narrow margins in very competitive districts and they will want to represent their constituents."
Steve Harmon of the Bay Area News Group and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

GobiernoUSA.gov and ImpreMedia Expand Outreach to Hispanic Community
August 3, 2007
Contact: Diane Merriett (202) 501-1231
Washington, DC – GobiernoUSA.gov, the official web portal for the U.S. government in Spanish, will collaborate with Spanish language newspaper publisher ImpreMedia to expand its distribution of official government information to the Hispanic community, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) today announced.
GobiernoUSA.gov, the Spanish version of USA.gov, which was recently named one of Time's magazine's "25 Sites You Can't Live Without," is joining forces with ImpreMedia, the Spanish language newspaper and online news publisher, to offer GobiernoUSA.gov's content to Spanish newspaper websites, including LaOpinion.com, and ELDiarioNY.com. The venture will enable GobiernoUSA.gov to expand its distribution of official government information in Spanish to a wider audience within the Hispanic community.
"GobiernoUSA.gov is committed to serving the Spanish-speaking public with relevant and official government information and services," said GSA Deputy Associate Administrator Martha Dorris. "Our collaboration with ImpreMedia enables us to broaden our online reach into the Hispanic community to those who may not be aware of the valuable resources the federal government offers in Spanish via GobiernoUSA.gov."
GobiernoUSA.gov facilitates access to government information in Spanish by bringing together in one centralized location resources from federal, state and local government agencies. The site is organized by topic and by audience and is available to the public at http://www.gobiernousa.gov.
The combination of ImpreMedia's reach in the Hispanic online market and GobiernoUSA.gov's official Spanish content increases the availability of trustworthy government information and services to the Hispanic community.
Founded in 1949, GSA serves as a centralized procurement and property management agency for the federal government. GSA manages more than one-fourth of the government's total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in federal assets, including 8,300 government-owned or leased buildings and 205,000 vehicles. GSA helps preserve our past and define our future, as a steward of more than 420 historic properties, and as manager of USA.gov, the official portal to federal government information and services. GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and E-Gov travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.

Hemingway versus TS Eliot
At last, from the archives at the Heldfond Book Gallery in San Anselmo, California, two great writers go head to head. Hemingway calls Eliot a nancy boy because he writes poems about cats. He does have a point. Hemingway is always going to win although Eliot gets in a nice shotgun/mouth jibe. Poets are hopeless in a rough-house scrap.

Sean Hannity Starts Witch Hunt Against Brennan With Discredited Attack
Research ››› ››› KEVIN ZIEBER
Fox News' Sean Hannity lashed out at nominee for CIA Director John Brennan for identifying the term "jihad" as a legitimate tenet of Islam. But Brennan's comments are in line with mainstream thought on the term, and former President Bush expressed similar sentiments in 2005.
Brennan: Don't Cede The Term Jihad To Our Adversaries Because It Gives Them Religious Legitimacy
John Brennan: The United States Doesn't "Describe Our Enemy As Jihadists Or Islamists Because Jihad Is Holy Struggle, A Legitimate Tenet Of Islam Meaning To Purify Oneself Of One's Community." In a 2010 speech to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, John Brennan stated that it is wrong to "describe our enemies as jihadists" because jihad means "holy struggle" and is "a legitimate tenet of Islam meaning to purify oneself of one's community." Brennan added that if we describe our enemies as jihadists, it would therefore "play into the false perception that they are religious leaders defending a holy cause":
The president's strategy is absolutely clear about the threat we face. Our enemy is not terrorism because terrorism is but a tactic. Our enemy is not terror because terror is a state of mind and, as Americans, we refuse to live in fear. Nor do we describe our enemy as jihadists or Islamists because jihad is holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam meaning to purify oneself of one's community.
And there is nothing holy or legitimate or Islamic about murdering innocent men, women and children. Indeed, characterizing our adversaries this way would actually be counterproductive. It would play into the false perception that they are religious leaders defending a holy cause when in fact, they are nothing more than murderers, including the murder of thousands upon thousands of Muslims.
Moreover, describing our enemy in religious terms would lend credence to the lie propagated by al-Qaida and its affiliates to justify terrorism, that the United States is somehow at war against Islam. The reality, of course, is that we have never been and will never be at war with Islam. After all, Islam, like so many faiths, is part of America.
Instead, the president's strategy is clear and precise. Our enemy is al-Qaida and its terrorist affiliates. For it was al-Qaida who attacked us so viciously on 9/11 and whose desire to attack the United States, our allies and our partners remains undiminished. [Center for Strategic and International Studies, 5/26/10]
Sean Hannity Attacked John Brennan For His Comment On Jihad
Sean Hannity On Brennan's Comments: "Is He That Stupid And Naïve?" Sean Hannity asked former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani if Brennan could really be so "stupid and naïve" to believe that jihad was a legitimate tenet of Islam:
SEAN HANNITY (host): Here's the worst part of it. Let me play this other cut here where he talks about jihad or using a legitimate term jihad. Jihad is holy war. Jihad is terrorism. Watch this one.
BRENNAN (video clip): Nor does President Obama see this challenge as a fight against jihadists. Describing terrorists in this way, using a legitimate term jihad, which means to purify oneself, or to wage holy struggle for a moral goal risks giving these murderers the religious legitimacy they desperately seek but in no way deserve.
HANNITY: Is he that stupid and naïve? Because this is going to be our new CIA Director?
RUDY GIULIANI: Or that much of an apologist. I --
HANNITY: Really.
GIULIANI: There is a legitimate interpretation of jihad, and there's an illegitimate interpretation of jihad. I get it, I studied the -
HANNITY: There's really one, though. [Fox News, Hannity, 1/9/13]
Hannity On The Word "Jihad": "We All Interpret It To Be What It Is: Terrorism Against Westerners." In an interview with Senator Ted Cruz, Sean Hannity suggested the term "jihad" could only mean "terrorism against westerners":
SEAN HANNITY (host): Well, then we have the announcement of Brennan for CIA, and Brennan is the guy that said jihad is a legitimate tenet of Islam. Jihad? Holy war? We all interpret it to be what it is: terrorism against westerners. [Fox News, Hannity, 1/8/13]
Brennan's Position That Jihad Does Not Necessarily Mean A Violent Struggle Is Well Within The Mainstream
University of Chicago Lecturer Noha Aboulmagd-Forster Explains That The Most Common Interpretation Of "Jihad" May Be The "Struggle For Self-Improvement." Noha Aboulmagd-Forster told National Geographic that most practicing Muslims view jihad primarily to be the struggle within oneself:
The concept of jihad as a struggle for self-improvement is little known among non-believers. Yet Noha Aboulmagd-Forster, who teaches Arabic at the University of Chicago's Center for Middle Eastern Studies, stresses that it may be the most common interpretation of the term.
"Something widely quoted by the Muslim 'man on the street' is that the most difficult jihad is the one of the soul," she said. "The biggest trouble is not with your enemy but with yourself." [National Geographic, 10/24/03]
Former President Of Chicago Theological Seminary: For Most Muslims, "Jihad Does Not Mean 'Holy War.'" Former Chicago Theological Seminary President Susan Brooks Thistlethwaite wrote in the Washington Post that jihad "does not mean 'Holy War'" to most Muslims:
In the last several years I have been working in both Muslim-Christian and now Muslim-Christian-Jewish dialogue on issues of war and peace. From this work I have learned that Jihad, both historically and for most Muslims today, does not mean "Holy War". Jihad literally means "struggle" or "struggle in the way of God." It is sometimes called the 6th pillar of Islam and equates to the responsibility of believers to struggle to improve themselves and/or society.
Jihad as "struggle to improve society"is more akin to the way we in the U.S. have used the phrase "war on poverty". A "war on poverty" does not mean literally killing those who impoverish others -- it means attacking the conditions of poverty in a vigorous though non-violent way.
There is also what is called "the greater Jihad" which refers to the inner struggle for faith by the individual believer. It is the "greater" Jihad, many Muslims believe, because it the more difficult struggle and also the most worthwhile. [The Washington Post, 7/25/07]
The American Muslim's Musaji: By Overthrowing Mubarak Peacefully, Egyptians "Struck A Blow Against The Deviant View Of The Meaning Of Jihad Taught By Groups Like Al Qaeda." Sheila Musaji, editor of The American Muslim website, extolled the protests that overthrew former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak without resorting to violence because it represented "a true Islamic, spiritual jihad" rather than Al Qaeda's perversion of it:
The Egyptian revolution brought down a brutal tyrant using only non-violent means. In doing so, they have not only begun the process of changing Egypt, but perhaps of changing the world. They have given hope to many, and they have reminded many of previous non-violent struggles.
This was not an al Qaeda perversion of jihad, but a true Islamic, spiritual jihad -- a struggle for freedom and justice. Because it was a non-violent movement, the Egyptian people have won the hearts of people around the world, and have inspired people around the world to struggle to achieve and/or retain freedom and democracy.
[T]he Egyptian people have struck a blow against the deviant view of the meaning of jihad taught by groups like Al Qaeda who believe that violence is the only way to achieve anything. The Egyptian people have proved that change is possible through non-violent means. This is going to make it very difficult for groups like al Qaeda to justify their violence as a legitimate means to an end. [The American Muslim, 6/14/12]
Even President Bush Agreed With Brennan That Extremists "Distort The Idea Of Jihad"
George W. Bush: "Extremists Distort The Idea Of Jihad." In a 2005 speech, former President George W. Bush said that extremists were distorting the idea of jihad, calling their distortion "very different from the religion of Islam":
All these separate images of destruction and suffering that we see on the news can seem like random, isolated acts of madness -- innocent men and women and children who have died simply because they boarded the wrong train, or worked in the wrong building, or checked into the wrong hotel. Yet, while the killers choose their victims indiscriminately, their attacks serve a clear and focused ideology -- a set of beliefs and goals that are evil, but not insane.
Some call this evil Islamic radicalism; others, militant Jihadism; and still others, Islamo-fascism. Whatever it's called, this ideology is very different from the religion of Islam. This form of radicalism exploits Islam to serve a violent, political vision: the establishment, by terrorism, subversion and insurgency, of a totalitarian empire that denies all political and religious freedom. These extremists distort the idea of jihad into a call for terrorist murder against Christians and Hindus and Jews -- and against Muslims, themselves, who do not share their radical vision. [George W. Bush, 11/11/05]
George W. Bush: Extremists Distort Jihad To "Call For Terrorist Murder Against Anyone Who Does Not Share Their Radical Vision." In another speech, former President Bush pointed out that extremists "distort the idea of jihad":
As we work together to defeat the terrorists, we must be very clear about the enemies we face. The killers who take the lives of innocent men, women, and children are followers of a violent ideology very different from the religion of Islam. These extremists distort the idea of jihad into a call for terrorist murder against anyone who does not share their radical vision, including Muslims from other traditions, who they regard as heretics.
Their strategy will fail. Many Muslim scholars have already publicly condemned terrorism, often citing chapter 5, verse 32 of the Koran, which states that killing an innocent human being is like killing all of humanity, and saving the life of one person is like saving all of humanity. I appreciate those of you here who have joined these scholars in rejecting violent extremists. And I believe the time has come for all responsible Islamic leaders to denounce an ideology that exploits Islam for political ends, and defiles your noble faith. [George W. Bush, 10/17/05]

Warts on Breast
My sister is on her 34th week of pregnancy. She saw wart-like structures on her breasts, a few centimeters away from her areola. She mentioned they are not itchy or painful or anything. Almost just like they are never there at all. However, her biggest concern is when she starts breastfeeding. The warts may be hindering milk flow or may get irritated by the bub's sucking. Should she have this removed or treated? I don't know what to advice her since I did not experience anything like this. Thanks for whatever you can share.

Warts are not something that I've personally experienced but as for whether it would hinder her milk supply, my guess is "no". If they're just on the surface of the skin, they're not going to interfere with the milk ducts or veins which carry milk to the nipple.
However, my foremost concern would be if the warts are contagious an if she could possibly transfer them to her baby's mouth.
Not being able to see a picture of them and not having a better description of their color, size and texture makes it really hard to even know if they are warts or not.
I would encourage her to see her doctor so she can find out what they are and then figure out how she got them (is it just an immune reaction, and if so, she can boost her immune system to help them go away naturally).
Warm Regards,

Same here. I haven't had any first hand experience with warts or such structures. Perhaps she may have to be referred to a derma, even then I am already relieved by the thought that it won't hinder breastfeeding. Just the same, it would be best to consult a doctor. Thanks Kate! This site is very helpful.

Very very nice script, i really like it, keep up the good work em3rgency
Hey all,
I just updated My MITM script.
Here is the download link.
VISIT http://em3rgency.com for script updates.
Again make sure you are using the correct dhcp3-server 3.1.
It should be fully functional. The script has everything you need on a fresh install of BT5r3 to make it compatible and ready to run.
1. Prerequsites and Updates
2. Run FAKE AP Static
3. Run EVIL TWIN AP
4. Run Standard ARP poison
5. Netdiscover connected clients
It will not work with ISC_DHCP_SERVER. You will need to do the following.
THIS IS FOR any other OS besides BT5
apt-get purge dhcp3-server
apt-get purge dhcp3-common
You will need to use this version of DHCP3 server
tar xzvf <FILENAME>
tar xzvf <FILENAME>
Enjoy!!! you can seriously pwn anyone on a network with this script. IT is fast!!! and reliable, I have had my FAKE_AP running for days without a crash!!!
I added an option to edit etter.conf under prerequisites.
I added an options to add your tunnel interface under prerequisites.
Improved logging, this script Will save all of your ettercap, urlsnarf, and ssltrip logs to a folder in your root directory.
Very very nice script, i really like it, keep up the good work em3rgency
nice one
i use another scripts
keep it boy
---> 3v3RY D4y P4ss3S 1 f0uNd N3W th1NGs <---
Knowing how 2 use BT dsnt mean that u r hacker
Nice script man, loving the versatility of it.
I have some bash code that I wrote that determines the users IP, nic and the router IP to variables.
Maybe you would find it useful in this code
IPNUMF=$(ifconfig | grep Bcast)
IPNUM=${IPNUMF:20:14} ###define the ip address
#echo $IPNUM
while [ $DECCOUNT != "3" ] ###define the last decimal place
CHARPLACE=$(expr $CHARPLACE + 1)
DECPLACE=$(expr $DECPLACE + 1)
IPCHAR=${IPNUM:$CHARPLACE:1} ###this is the char by char scan code
if [ $IPCHAR = "." ] ###define the decimal places
DECCOUNT=$(expr $DECCOUNT + 1)
ENET=${IPNUM:0:$DECPLACE} ###define the numbers up to the last decimal
#echo "your network is: $ENET"
NODENUM=${IPNUM:$CHARPLACE:3} ###define the numbers after last decimal
#echo "your node is: $NODENUM"
#NICF=$(/pentest/sniffers/intercepter-ng/intercepter_linux -h | grep "IP2" -B 2)
#echo $NICF
NICF=$(ifconfig | grep Bcast -B 1) ###define the connected interface
#echo $NIC
AROUTR=$(route -n | grep $NIC)
NODER=$(expr $DECPLACE + 3)
ROUTR=$(expr $ROUTR + 1)
ROUTR=$(expr $ROUTR - 1)
ROUTR=$ENET$ROUTR ###define the router ip
very nice script matty, works like a charm here, so thank you for the scrip em3rgency :-)
keep the good work,
Also, this seems a bit overkill just to get those info ; i useand then pipe it to awk according to what I need.Code:ip route show
em3rgency ; you don't need to use sudo in BackTrack.
For you menu option, instead of using nested ifs, you should use case in. Here's an example from one of my scripts :
Also, you reload the script from the begining with ./script.sh, which is not very recommendable. You should use a function like menu() and call it instead.Code:misc() { echo -e "\nHere are the miscellanous features. 1. Image sniffing 2. DNS spoofing 3. Previous menu." read misc case $misc in 1) image_menu final ;; 2) choose_dns ;; 3) final ;; *) echo "bad choice" misc ;; esac }
It ressembles killadaninja's Airssl, but I guess there aren't infinite ways to do this. Yet, you use the same way of outputing everything to xterm with coloration, which is twice not necessary and the same way of storing PID to variables : & urlsnarfid=$!. If you did use some of his work, you should give him some credit.
Running both KDE and GNOME BT5 flawlessly. Thank you !
thanks comaX I will see what I can do with what you recommended. I am new to bash scripting, I know its kinda sloppy. I am just happy is working at this point, I will clean it up later on.
thanks for all the kind words guys. I hope to keep learning and sharing with the community.
I think I did use killadaninja's airssl PID to variables, to test them out. I liked that functionality, as you can see i used killall a couple different ways in the script.
merry christmas everyone!
I posted a thread in the general topics section about this, but since it pertains to your script, I thought I'd post it here. Hopefully you or someone may have an answer --
I have a MITM attack set up in my lab using the Em3rgency 1.1 script.
The attack runs fine for a couple minutes. I signed on with my iPhone and was able to test a login or two, which showed up in the log as it should. But after a little bit of activity, I get this error in my sslstrip window:
After which, the AP is no longer visible, and traffic no longer flows through the fake AP (webpages won't load, no more data is logged).
I spent a fair amount of time googling this, and so far, I found mention that this error may refer to when a user forcibly terminates their connection on their end; that it's nothing to worry about. That doesn't appear to be the case here. I'm all ears(eyes) if anyone has any suggestions.
This is a stock install of BT5r3 KDE x32 on a VM. I have run apt-get update/upgrade, (followed the setup directions in the thread) and that's about it. Any ideas? Thanks.
Its really hard to tell, make sure sslstrip is installed. that error message happens sometimes.. but hasnt had any impact as far as I am aware. If it is a problem with the AP disappearing, then make sure aircrack-ng is updated! if it is a dhcp issue, make sure dhcp3 is running correctly or reinstall.
Can A mod please add me to the forums, I have been here for 3 months, and I still cannot post without mod allowing it... its annoying.. I am trying to contribute to the community.

The Department of Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) administers about 264 million acres of land—nearly one-eighth of the United States—mostly in the western states and Alaska. The BLM also administers the mineral estate of nearly 700 million acres throughout the country. The BLM is responsible for the balanced management of the public lands and resources and their various values so that they are considered in a combination that will best serve the needs of the American people. The BLM bases its management on the principles of multiple use and sustained yield—a combination of uses that takes into account the long-term needs of future generations for renewable and nonrenewable resources. These resources include recreation, range, timber, minerals, watershed, fish and wildlife, wilderness, and natural scenic, scientific, and cultural values.
The public lands produce commodities that are key to the Nation's economy, providing economic stability and growth for local and regional economies. Energy and mineral resources generate the highest economic production values among commercial uses of both BLM-administered public lands (surface) and Federal minerals (subsurface) estate.
Public lands also provide substantial returns to the American people. In 1999, these activities generated $1.2 billion in revenue. Energy and mineral royalties, rents, bonuses, sales, and fees accounted for $1.1 billion of the total. The direct and indirect economic impact of energy and mineral production on the public lands amounted to an estimated $24.7 billion.
Does BLM produce solid minerals?
No. The BLM does not produce minerals. The agency issues permits and leases to companies so they may explore for and produce solid minerals. We also issue free use permits for mineral materials to government agencies, charitable organizations, and non-profit corporations. We review mine plans, plans of operation and other development plans to ensure that mineral resources are conserved and other resources are protected. We also ensure that the government is properly compensated for minerals produced from public land.
What solid minerals do companies produce from public land?
Companies produce a wide variety of solid minerals from the public land including:
How do companies get the right to produce minerals from public land?
BLM administers four different programs that allow companies to produce solid minerals from the public land. The programs are based on laws that address how certain types of minerals can be developed. The most significant laws for mineral disposal are:
Are there other laws important to solid mineral development?
Yes. There are many significant laws important to solid mineral development. Many of these laws amended the key mineral disposal statutes listed above. Other laws govern the management of the public land and the protection of the environment. Some of these laws are:
There are also State laws regulating mine reclamation and other Federal and State laws that protect the environment and regulate workplace health and safety that companies must follow.
What are "locatable minerals"?
Locatable minerals can be obtained by filing a mining claim. Locatable minerals include both metallic minerals (gold, silver, lead, etc.) and nonmetallic minerals (fluorspar, asbestos, mica, gemstones, etc.). Originally, all minerals except for coal were obtained under the General Mining Laws, however, Congress has removed certain minerals from the operation of the General Mining Law.
What is a mining claim?
A mining claim is a particular parcel of Federal land, valuable for a specific mineral deposit or deposits. It is a parcel for which an individual has asserted a right of possession. The right is restricted to the extraction and development of a mineral deposit as regulated by the BLM or the Forest Service. The rights granted by a mining claim are valid against a challenge by the United States and other claimants only after the discovery of a valuable mineral deposit. Generally speaking, a mining claim is referred to as a "lode claim" if mineralization occurs as a vein of ore in place or as a "placer claim" if minerals are dispersed among particles of sand or gravel. A millsite claim is one used to process locatable minerals.
Can I file a mining claim on any Federal land?
No—not all Federal lands are open for mining claims. There are federally administered lands in 19 States where you may locate a mining claim or site: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. In these States, the BLM manages the surface public lands and the Forest Service manages the surface National Forest System lands. Excepting mineral materials, the BLM is responsible for the minerals on both public lands and National Forest System lands.
You may prospect and locate claims and sites on lands open to mineral entry. Claims may not be staked in areas closed to mineral entry by a special act of Congress, regulation, or public land order. These areas are withdrawn from the operation of the mining laws.
Areas withdrawn from location of mining claims include National Parks, National Monuments, Indian reservations, most reclamation projects, military reservations, scientific testing areas, most wildlife protection areas (such as Federal wildlife refuges), and lands withdrawn from mineral entry for other reasons. Lands withdrawn for power development may be subject to mining location and entry only under certain conditions. Mining claims may not be located on lands that have been:
Locatable (hard-rock) minerals on most lands acquired by the United States and on Indian reservations are leasable. The Bureau of Indian Affairs is responsible for leasing minerals on Tribal lands and lands held in trust for the benefit of individual American Indians.
Can I start mining after I file my mining claim?
No. You must get all necessary permits before you start mining, even if you have completed filing your mining claim. Most Federal agencies have regulations to protect the surface resources of the Federal lands during exploration and mining activities. You must submit a notice or a plan of operations before conducting any surface-disturbing activities, except for casual use activities. You also must reclaim disturbed sites after you complete your exploration and mining activities. Most State governments also have mining and reclamation requirements. To avoid duplication, several states have entered into cooperative agreements with Federal agencies. Operators should check with Federal and State agencies to determine the proper lead agency before submitting a notice of mining plan.
How can I get minerals commonly used for construction?
There is no specific application form for requesting removal of mineral materials from public lands. Persons interested in buying mineral materials on public land should contact the nearest BLM Field Office or the Forest Service for mineral materials located in National Forests.
Can I get mineral materials for free?
The BLM may grant free use permits to governmental agencies, and non-profit organizations and corporations. The permittee is not allowed to barter or sell the mineral materials acquired under the permit. Federal, State, and local governmental agencies may be granted free use permits for mineral materials, if they can show that a public need exists for the material. The BLM may allow non-profit organizations and corporations, such as churches and scouting organizations to remove limited quantities of mineral materials.
Do I need a lease to explore for leasable minerals?
No. You may get an exploration license to explore for solid minerals. For solid minerals other than coal, you may also be able to get a prospecting permit. Exploration licenses give you no right to lease a deposit should you find one. Prospecting permits give you a preference right to lease a deposit should you find one.
How do I lease solid minerals other than coal or oil shale?
BLM issues leases in two different ways for solid leasable minerals other than coal and oil shale. The BLM issues competitive leases in areas where we know there is a mineral deposit. We issue competitive leases through a bidding process. BLM will issue prospecting permits in areas where we do not know a mineral deposit exists. The BLM considers the comprehensive land use plan for the area and environmental concerns before issuing any lease.
Does the leasing of Federal coal generate any revenues?
Yes. Lease applicants pay a bonus at the time the BLM issues them a lease and are required to make rental payments as long as they hold a lease. Lessees also pay royalties on the value of coal mined under any Federal lease. The leasing and production of Federal coal generated about $312 million in revenue in 1999.
How much coal is produced from Federal coal leases?
During the 1990s, about 350 million tons of coal, with a value of about $2.9 billion, was produced annually from Federal coal leases.
Are there any revenues from the leasing of solid minerals other than coal or oil shale?
Yes. Lessees must pay a bonus bid that equals or exceeds the fair market value of the deposit when they get a competitive lease. All lessees must pay rental and royalties on their leases. During the 1990s revenue from these kinds of leases generated about $30 million per year.

Red-Tape Mandates Spark Innovation
This article appears in the March 2012 issue of HealthLeaders magazine.
Talk to many hospital and health system CEOs these days, and it's clear they see the healthcare glass as half-empty. Drastic changes to the way their business is conducted—from ICD-10 compliance (even with HHS' deadline delay) to meaningful use directives to value-based purchasing rules—mean CEOs have lots to complain about.
A litany of expensive mandates face healthcare organizations, and the bill for them is coming due in the next decade. In many cases, these costs can't be recovered, at least not in a traditional measure of ROI. In fact, there's good reason for pessimism among hospital and health system leaders, says Paul Keckley, executive director of the Deloitte Center for Health Solutions, an industry think tank in Washington, DC.
These regulations are "not about an expanded revenue stream," he says. "It's a matter of how much they'll be impacted by the costs."
Join the HealthLeaders Media Council
Get members-only access to industry-wide intelligence, forecasts, and analysis positions your organization to benchmark against your peers, identify and respond to key trends shaping healthcare, and make sound business decisions.
Even outside of regulatory costs, he says, the reimbursement environment is weak at best. For example, a 2% Medicare cut mandated after the so-called congressional debt super committee failed at its task of reducing the federal budget deficit will result in $123 billion in cuts to Medicare if Congress cannot agree on an alternative.
Hospitals would shoulder about 40% of those cuts ($49 billion) through reductions in reimbursements for inpatient and outpatient services, according to Avalere Health LLC, a Washington, DC–based consultancy and research firm.
Even if that calamity is averted, hospitals "can look at market basket updates shrinking, and that's before the additional cost of complying with new reporting," Keckley says. "So it's a pretty perilous time. One out of four hospitals will not survive this."
Despite that dire prediction, through a series of interviews with HealthLeaders, it becomes clear that many leaders are less pessimistic than it would be reasonable to expect about their ability to succeed in the new environment.
