Charges were dropped against one of the men accused of slashing the tires of Thibodaux Police vehicles parked outside the department last year because the investigation was recently compromised, the district attorney said.
Charges were dropped against one of the men accused of slashing the tires of Thibodaux Police vehicles parked outside the department last year because the investigation was recently compromised, the district attorney said.
Glenn Watkins, 50, is no longer accused of 48 counts of property damage because "in the past month, the District Attorney's Office received additional information about the investigation that compromised the Watkins case," District Attorney Cam Morvant II said.
Morvant declined to detail what that information is or how it jeopardized the case.
"This was a decision I really had no choice in making," he added.
The Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office headed the investigation, but Sheriff Craig Webre said there was no wrongdoing or mistakes made on the part of his investigators.
Asked if mistakes were made on the part of Thibodaux Police, Chief Scott Silverii would only say the Police Department was the victim in the crime and the Sheriff's Office was the investigating authority.
"We were victims in the fact that the crime was perpetrated against the Police Department. The Sheriff's Office conducted the investigation. The district attorney reviewed the charges, and that's the process," Silverii said.
Watkins' charges were dropped Thursday when he appeared in Judge Jerome Barbera III's courtroom.
Watkins was arrested in August 2011 with his nephew Jonathan Watkins. The two were accused of slashing dozens of patrol car tires in the city police headquarters' parking lot on two separate occasions in May 2011. The damage totaled more than $7,000.
Jonathan Watkins pleaded guilty last April to 11 counts of property damage, a reduced charge from the 34 counts he was originally charged with. By the time prosecutors discovered the case was compromised, Jonathan Watkins was already out of prison on parole, Morvant said. However, he was brought back to court, and a judge reduced the felony charges on his record to misdemeanors because of the compromised investigation.
Glenn and Jonathan Watkins told investigators last year that Thibodaux Police Capt. Calvin Cooks paid them to slash the tires, but investigators with the Lafourche Sheriff's Office said there was no evidence to support that.
Silverii and Thibodaux Mayor Tommy Eschete are defendants in a lawsuit claiming they schemed to ruin Cook's career and reputation for political gain.
The suit alleges Silverii and other police officers concocted rumors implicating Cooks in the tire slashings.
Eschete has said the allegations are not true, and Silverii has said the claims are baseless.
Morvant said the case was not compromised because of the lawsuit.

A March on Washington, D.C.: Women Making Waves
July 25, 2012
I want to start with a quote from young man named Philip from the Philippine Islands:
On July 24, 2012 there was an amazing march on Washington, D.C., which included five activist arms. They marched from five different locations to meet at Layette Park across from the White House. The one that I participated in was called Women Making Waves -- the women's arm of the march. Positive Women's Network was one of the leaders in the march with women from around the global, chanting: "All Women, All Rights" and "Making Waves" and "when women are under attack what do we stand up and fight back!" There was close to 2,000 women and men and young people within the march they all had the same messages to End AIDS now!
As a woman living with HIV for over seventeen years and been to several marches over the years, the Women Making Waves march took my breath away, because it was attended by people from all over the world. On top of all of that, it was the first time in 22 years that the International AIDS Conference was in the United States thanks to President Obama lifting the travel ban for people living with HIV to enter into the United States. We still have our work cut out for us because the travel ban still does not allow sex workers or people who use drugs to travel into the United States.
Activists were arrested at the march doing civil disobedience, I need to say that women have been a afterthought in the HVI epidemic and not made a propriety however when arresting people women then were made a priority and women activists were the first to be arrested. How ironic is that. Julie Davids who is longtime member of ACT-UP Philadelphia, founder of the organization Prevention Justice Alliance and several other women from ACT-UP Philadelphia were the first women to be arrested along with Roy Hayes longtime member of ACT-UP Philadelphia.
All over the world women are turning the tide together.

Washington, Dc — Air Force and Navy Fitness may be adding new fitness centers to their ranks. A new fitness center at Shaw Air Force Base in South Carolina and Naval Air Station Kingsville (TX) were recently added by House appropriators to President Bush's fiscal 2009 military construction request.
The new centers were added to improve the quality of life for service members and their families. The additions were approved unanimously by the House Appropriations Committee on June 24.
The bill, which includes $24.8 billion for overall military construction, will now go to the full House for consideration.

The clip posted by Laird shows very plainly how effective shin and forearm conditioning can be, my favorites as well. Also notice the way The shin kick 'angles in' like the blade of an axe chopping a tree.
Excellent stuff, Laird.
Rick Wilson devotes every Saturday morning class to 100% conditioning.
I would not recommend beating up your knuckles to puff them up. Tomoyose sensei, when in Boston, would strike an incoming punch with puffed up knuckles, with a boshiken or even a shoken, much to the dismay of the person throwing the punch.
He also warned us against the beating up of joints.

Test Recipes: Chinese Almond Cookies
Article Digest:
Chinese-style almond cookies have been sold in the Chinatown of Los Angeles for over fifty years. When I found this copy cat recipe by Todd Wilbur, I knew I had to give it a try.
One of the ingredients in Todd Wilbur's recipe is lard. From experience, I knew the
Armour brand lard
just wouldn't do. (In the past, when I used Armour lard in sweet pastries, it seemed to produce weird off flavors.) After asking every one of my local supermarkets and boutique grocers for high quality leaf lard, I realized that I was not going to be able to find it. So, I tried the recipe with butter and with
Spectrum Organic All Vegetable Shortening
(which is made with mechanically pressed organic palm fruit oil that hasn't been additionally processed in any way). Both recipes were delicious - as expected, the shortening almond cookies had a lighter, crispier texture, but not quite as much fullness of flavor. Many tasters did comment that the shortening made almond cookies had a stronger almond flavor and may have tasted a little sweeter. In the end, the recipe I recommend is has a mix of both butter and shortening. If you do choose to use shortening, I recommend avoiding any that contains partially hydrogenated vegetable oils.
For the all butter recipe, I assembled all the ingredients: 3 cups (375 g) all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup (60 g) almonds), 1 cup (200 g) sugar, 1 large egg, 12 ounces butter, 1 ounce water, 1 teaspoon almond extract, and 24 almonds.
I used a blender to grind the 60 g almonds into a fine powder. Because the almonds had a tendency to stick to the sides of the blender carafe, I had to use a spatula to scrape down the sides a few times to get an even grind.
This is what the almonds looked like after the grind.
I whisked the flour, salt, baking soda, and freshly ground almond powder together.
Then I used a stand mixer to cream the butter (shortening or butter/shortening combination) with the sugar, egg, almond extract, and water. If the butter isn't fully softened, the sides of the mixing bowl will need to be scraped down once or twice before the mixture will be smooth and without lumps.
I added the dry ingredients to the mixing bowl and mixed briefly to combine. I then formed the dough into 1-in. dough balls. I then pressed an almond or almond half onto the top of each ball. Refrigerating the dough balls for fifteen minutes results in better shaped cookies. If the dough contains no butter and only shortening, refrigerating makes no noticeable difference. For the record, the recipe yields about four half sheet pans with six dough balls each. These cookies spread out while baking, so a decent amount of space (about two inches) is needed between the balls.
I then took another large egg and beat it lightly. Using a pastry brush, I brushed egg onto the surface of each dough ball.
After baking for twenty minutes in a 350°F (175°C) oven, I cooled them on a wire rack.

Looks yummy. Can a oiled aluminum foil be used instead of parchment paper on the baking sheet ?

Looks yummy. Can a oiled aluminum foil be used instead of parchment paper on the baking sheet ?
It is actually not necessary to use parchment paper or foil. I did a batch directly on the sheet pan and it came out just fine. You do spend a tiny bit more energy cleaning the pan because there will be more fat on the pan than if you had lined it.

will I get acceptable results using a small coffee bean grinder or a hand held blender? You know the small wand blenders?
Thanks, Heather

Thanks, Heather
Chances are if you use an
immersion or stick blender
you'll make a mess as the almond pieces get flung everywhere. A
coffee grinder
will work perfectly fine however.

These cookies are my mother's favourites and I would like to make a batch and send them to her. It would take about 4 days from making the cookies for them to arrive at her door. Will the cookies still be moist if I put them in a airtight container or vacuum bag?

These cookies were never all that moist (unless using the all butter version - then they are a little tender) - they're light and crispy... Four days should be fine - she'll probably need to eat them within the next two or three days after she receives them though.

In the recipe and on the top of the recipe card, it says to bake at 350, but in the recipe card it says 250. Is this a typo?

Ah, you're right. I was doing some quick mental math on 340 g divided by two is of course 120 g (I'm an idiot
). I've made the changes - it's 170 g. That's for catching that error!

Box Score
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – With just a little more than 1:30 remaining, sophomore quarterback Zach Klinger (Halifax, Pa./Halifax) steamed towards the Lycoming College football team's sideline, smashing into a Rowan tackler and sprawling out-of-bounds, reaching for the first down on a third-and-6. He got there by the length of the ball, all but assuring the Warriors a win over No. 22 Rowan to open the season in front of 2,000 fans at David Person Field.
Things changed two plays later, though, as the Profs forced a fumble and scored in just 26 seconds after starting the drive at the Lycoming 22-yard line. Louie Bianchini found Dan Reed for a 19-yard score, but a two-point conversion failed on a bobbled pass in the end zone. It wasn't until senior Phil Peterson (Villas, N.J./Lower Cape May Regional) wrapped up the ensuing onside kick that the Warriors could relax, as Lycoming head coach Mike Clark manufactured his third career win over a top-25 program with the 8-6 victory.
"It's huge for our football program," fourth-year mentor Clark said. "That is a program that has a great program and so are we. We're proud of it. Our players need to understand that. We need to believe we are going to win every time we go on the field. As a coaching staff, we think we are getting close to that mentality that we don't hope to win. We expect to win."
The Warrior defense held strong all day long, allowing just 115 total yards to the Profs (0-1 overall), who were ranked as high as 12th by Lindy's Preseason College Football publication. In all the Warriors (1-0 overall) allowed just 38 rushing yards on 35 attempts and posted six sacks, led by 1.5 from senior captain Anthony Marascio (Philadelphia, Pa./Father Judge).
"Our defensive line is really good," Clark said. "We may be small, but we can run. They are tough and athletic. That group is going to drive our offense all season. It's not just four or five guys, it's seven or eight."
Lycoming had a solid opening drive, matching 58 yards on 16 plays to set up a 25-yard field goal from sophomore Zack Czap (Phillipsburg, Pa./Phillipsburg-Oscelola). The drive featured five first downs and, in a show of things to come, six rushes by junior Parker Showers (Aspers, Pa./Biglerville).
The Profs managed some traction on their opening drive, going 48 yards on nine plays, but a sack by junior Tyler Geis (Bellwood, Pa./Bellwood-Antis) stopped the momentum and helped end the drive. From there, the teams couldn't sustain a drive of more than four plays through much of the rest of the second quarter. However, Czap, a first-team All-MAC punter as a sophomore, was able to outboot the Rowan counterpart and when a sophomore Dwight Hentz (Halifax, Pa./Halifax) sack moved Rowan into a fourth-and-19 from the five-yard line, the ensuing snap was fired out of the end zone for a safety with 2:07 left in the quarter.
After a 20-yard kickoff return by freshman Craig Needhammer (Lansdale, Pa./North Penn) to near midfield, the Warriors moved the ball down to the 19-yard line with help from a facemask penalty, setting up a 36-yarder from Czap with 32 seconds left in the half, giving the Warriors and 8-0 lead.
In the third quarter, the Warrior defense was as tenacious as ever, allowing just 33 yards in 11 plays, allowing just one first down and forcing three punts. The Profs defense also held, allowing just 46 yards to the Warriors, setting up the wild fourth quarter.
Rowan gained 70 yards on 16 plays in the fourth quarter, double its total entering the quarter, but its first nine-play drive of the half stalled at its own 35-yard line. When it got the ball back after a 3-and-out by Lycoming, the Profs moved the ball 58 yards down field to the Lycoming 12, but three straight incomplete passes, with the last broken up by freshman Ryan Mihoci (Murrysville, Pa./Franklin Regional) ending the drive with 3:56 left.
The Warriors ran the ball six straight times before fumbling the ball with 1:29 left to set up the dramatic finish.
Showers was a workhorse in the backfield for the Warriors, leading the offense with 28 carries for 94 yards and three receptions for 23 yards while Klinger finished with 11 carries for 26 yards. Klinger completed 7-of-14 passes for 45 yards. He was sacked three times but did not turn the ball over.
Junior Jarrin Campman (Clearfield, Pa./Clearfield) made three catches for 23 yards. Czap went 2-for-3 on field goals and added a solid 38.8-yard average on six punts, placing two within the 20-yard line.
Art Wright led the Rowan offense with 15 carries for 32 yards and Matt Dortch added 10 carries for 31 yards. Louie Bianchini went 7-of-14 for 80 yards and a touchdown, but was sacked six times. Dan Reed had two receptions for 29 yards and a touchdown.
Sophomore Kabongo Bukasa (Sharon Hill, Pa./Academy Park) led the Warriors with nine tackles and a sack and Hentz posted eight tackles and two for a loss. Senior Chris Kish (Wilkes-Barre, Pa./G.A.R. Memorial) and junior Corey Schuster (Moosic, Pa./Riverside) each added seven stops and 0.5 for loss.
Geno Raman led Rowan with 11 stops and Dean Hammel added nine tackles and a fumble recovery.
The Warriors head to Westminster (Pa.) for a week two Presidents' Athletic Conference/Middle Atlantic Conference Challenge game on Saturday, Sept. 10 at 1 p.m.

YORK, Pa. - Regular-season co-champions Salisbury and York
combined to fill 19 of the 29 positions on the 2014 All-CAC
Men's Lacrosse Team, but it was Mary Washington senior attack
Luke Dick that earned first-team all-star honors and was named the
conference Player of the Year. Dick, a two-time first-team
All-CAC player, is the first Mary Washington player to be named
Player of the Year.
York tied for the regular-season title for the first time in team history and was rewarded with 10 post-season honors, including freshman defender Garrett Barker as the Rookie of the Year and Brandon Childs as Coach of the Year. Barker is the third Spartan to win the Rookie of the Year award, joining teammate Tyler Hutson (2012) and Andrew Collins (2004) in that exclusive club. Childs is the first YCP mentor to win the CAC Coach of the Year award.
Hutson, who was the CAC Player of the Year in 2013, earned his third-straight first-team All-CAC award and was one of a CAC-leading six Spartans named to the 2014 All-CAC first team. He was joined by sophomore attack Andrew Gamble, senior midfielders Seth Krolus and James Lowe, sophomore defender Josh Kluver and sophomore keeper Caleb Abney.
Spartan juniors named to the All-CAC second team were short stick specialist Andrew Thomas and long pole defender Tyler Fields. Krolus, Lowe, Abney and Thomas were all members of the 2013 All-CAC team.
Regular-season co-champion Salisbury, which will host York in the playoff title match Saturday, registered a CAC-best 11 players on the all-star team, led by first-team picks senior midfielder Donovan Lange, senior defender Josh Martin, junior defender Knute Kraus, senior long pole defender Zeke Smith and sophomore short stick specialist Preston Dabbs. Smith is a three-time all-star while Martin, Kraus and Dabbs are repeat selections on the All-CAC team.
Six Sea Gulls also earned second-team all-star nods, including senior attackmen Rhett DePol and Luke Phipps, senior midfielder Greg Korvin, sophomore midfielder Thomas Cirillo, senior face off specialist Chris Biank and senior keeper Alex Taylor. DePol and Korvin were second-team all-stars last year while Taylor is making his third appearance on the All-CAC men's lacrosse team.
In addition to Dick being named Player of the Year and a first-team all-star for the second-straight season, Mary Washington placed four players on the All-CAC second team. Senior attack John Bohlinger and senior middie Joey Marson are repeat selections while senior midfielder Chip Pittard and senior defender Charlie Webb are first-time All-CAC picks.
Frostburg State, in just its fourth varsity season, placed three players on this year's all-star roster, led by senior face off specialist Billy Lark. The Bobcats also earned the second-consecutive second-team all-star awards for junior defenders Zack Burkhardt and Paul Newman.
First-year CAC member Christopher Newport and 2013 CAC Champion St. Mary's each picked up one second-team all-star honor. SMC's senior attack Ben Love collected his second-straight All-CAC second-team honor while CNU senior Teddy Pekalski gained his first conference all-star award as a long pole defender.

The test he has really un-favor M10A Hunter. M10A has worse recoil, spread, recovery, and DPS if you consider target leaves M10A OHK range. Those things combine together put M10A Hunter in the bottom. As for PTFO/mathematic stand, M10A has lowest RPM and worse dispersion than Sjögren which take it down to the bottom again. However, for PTFO/reality, M10A consistent OHK at close range do let it feel more reliable than Sjögren is.I am curious about what makes the Model 10-A hunter worse in every category then the Sjögren ? Im particularly surprised its worse in the PFTO stances since its typically a 1 shot kill in that range.

Tried the recommended PTFO scout loadout for nearly two hours straight. Was NOT disappointed. 100+ kills aquired with it now.
1st off - In TDM & Domination it is fantastic. Seriously, I'm surprised at how freaking effective it was. I did change up the secondary to the No. 3 revolver, because I felt like I needed something that hit a bit harder than the Frommer Stop, but I rarely used a secondary.
2nd - In conquest, you're outclassed by nearly everything while moving between points. But when you're defending a point, it's quite the man stopper.
3rd - Yes the sights suck, but when you're aiming at things under 15m they're fine.
You are giving up one of the main reasons for being a scout, which is taking out targets at longer ranges, but being able to tangle with assaults and medics on a point and win? That's more than worth it in my book.

Interesting, it makes me wonder what stats about a weapon become more or less important as skill changes. It would be neat to have these rankings tuned according to a personalized 'skill index', though it's probably a pipe dream. For example: if you have a low skill rating, mag size gets a higher weighting because you are inaccurate. After a certain rise in skill it deflates again. After an even further rise in skill it goes back up, because players at this level easily win 1v1s and their lack of multi kill potential really starts to chafe(like Skanic I would imagine).In practise I find the Mondragon Storm way superior to the Model 8 .35 overall, also over the Cei-Rigotti.
Mondragon Storm is the most solid SLR in the game

Negative SIPS is REALLY POWERFUL at extended ranges.
According to its Spread and Spread "Decrease" values, the BAR Storm returns to its 0.24 Min-Spread at the 7th shot, and then keeps it there until you run out of ammo (I believe it doesn't "overheat" before your magazine is empty).
That means, even at 100m, you have 100% Hitrate from the 7th all the way to your 20th shot, doing 19dmg a pop.
To get to a Target Damage of 100, I have the BAR Storm shoot 9RB, where you can expect ~5.55 / 9 to hit. 105.4599559dmg for your 9RB.
With an RPM of 600, and 60Hz Tickrate for Shooting Mechanics, that takes 0.8833333333s.
Plus, you don't even need to wait for Spread Decrease, because you're already at Min-Spread... so there's nothing to recover from. You can start your next burst right away. Or, if the next target is clumped together, just "walk "the fire onto him. No need to burst... again, you're already at Min-Spread.
This is compared to the 1906 "Factory," which shoots 4RB (for 90.70133474dmg) + 1RB (for 35dmg) to reach the 100dmg Target. Plus Spread Decrease, that takes 1.166666667s, which is already slower.
Further, V-Recoil required from the BAR Storm to achieve that? 2.716deg. From the 1906? 4.75deg. Even the BAR Trench is still lower, 3.88deg.
The BAR gets the job done faster, with lower Recoil, then finally Reloads faster. I'd say that it's "better."

This item is noncancelable and nonreturnable.
The 8 TB DSSRV2-080-D Digital Sentry H.264 Network Video Recorder from Pelco is optimized to deliver essential hardware support for the DS NVs video management software (VMS) without the risk of integrating hardware and software.
Boosted by the 4th Generation Intel Xeon processor and 16GB of RAM, the Digital Sentry NVR provides an optimal combination of processing power and reliability to meet the demands of HD video recording and playback operations. The system is powered to support up to 128 combined IP and analog video streams, with up to 64 analog cameras supported via the optional ENC5416 directly attachable encoder (sold separately). Analog streams are also supported using Pelco and third-party encoders.
The NVR delivers total available throughput of 350 Mb/s for recording of analog and IP video streams as well as playback and export through the DS ControlPoint client. When determining the maximum number of cameras and the desired frame rate to host on every system, the number of concurrent client connections, the number of streams likely to be viewed in playback on each client, and the bandwidth required to support the client connections must be taken into consideration.
The NVR functions as a standalone system or as part of a network of servers, monitored from the DS ControlPoint user interface. The system can be deployed solely as a network video recorder, as a digital video recorder (DVR), or as a hybrid NVR.
Thanks to the 2 gigabit network ports, handy network architecture planning is facilitated by allowing 1 port to be dedicated to IP cameras, while the second network port is used for client connections. 2 DVI-D ports provide a convenient connection for high-resolution digital monitors for use with HD cameras.
The NVR incorporates a SSD system drive. With increased read-write speeds and no moving parts, the SSD system drive increases the reliability, uptime, and responsiveness of the system. The 8 TB SSD drive is hot-swappable when configured for internal RAID 5 storage with the optional RAID 5 controller card (sold separately). External storage is supported through USB attached storage or by using the DSSRV-SCSI interface card (sold separately) connected to DX8100HDDI storage of up to 24TB. The external storage can be configured for JBOD storage of software-controlled RAID 5 storage. The unit comes with a US power cord.Front panel LED displays on the recorder provide heads-up information on system operation. The LEDs are integrated with the new Digital Sentry System Information (DSSI) utility, providing critical, real-time statistics on system resource utilization, temperature, and throughput status. This NVR is DIACAP (Department of Defense (DoD) Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process) certified.

Ireland boss Giovanni Trapattoni could offer newcomer Conor Sammon the chance to lead the line in the make or break World Cup clash in Sweden next month.
Sammon made his debut in last week's 2-0 friendly win over Poland at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin and could partner Shane Long against the Swedes at the expense of captain Robbie Keane.
Speaking after Ciaran Clark and sub Wes Hoolahan scored against the Poles, Trap said, "Long and Sammon is a good option because we think also that Long can be fast against Sweden.
"We think also about Robbie. As a striker with experience, he continues to score in the U.S. I know you would love to have a nice clear line, but it's not as simple as that. There are too many variables."
Asked about goal scorer Hoolahan, Trapattoni said, "He did well, not only the goal. In the past with many questions about Hoolahan I said we know very well about Hoolahan. We need two strikers with our team because with one striker all of the team play for the one striker.
"Hoolahan we know many times. With Marco I repeat, maybe we have overlooked him because in this club he play well in this position but his club is no Manchester or Arsenal, but he is a good tactical option. In the future we will consider it."
World Cup games away to Sweden and home to Austria next month now await Ireland, with midfielder Glenn Whelan aware the two fixtures are vital.
Whelan said: "The two games at the end of March are crucial. We know Germany are probably the favorites -- well, they are the favorites -- so everyone is fighting for the second spot.
"If we get the right result, it gives everyone a lift and something to look forward to, so that's what we are hopefully going to do."
Defender John O'Shea captained the side against Poland in Keane's absence and paid tribute to Hoolahan.
O'Shea said: "It was a great goal from Wes. There might have been a suspicion of handball -- I think the Dublin GAA team better watch out. It was a great finish from him, though. The quality of Wes, that's what he is capable of."

Seems gender-bending is the theme of the day, here. We all know Karlie Kloss as the fresh-scrubbed, down-to-earth, girly girl who's currently got the fashion world on a string. But, thanks to M Le Monde , we're getting to see a whole different side of style's leading lass.
With some slicked-back hair, a few select, boyish pieces, and a whole lot of attitude, photographer Daniel Sannwald transforms Kloss into history's most beautiful '50s greaser. Elsewhere, Kloss continues to walk the line between the genders with looks that hit somewhere between a Robert Palmer backup dancer and a Patrick Nagel girl. Dunno about you guys, but we're loving Kloss as a glammed-up tomboy. Where'd we put our pomade?
Click on for our favorite shots and visit here for even more daring Kloss looks. Enjoy. (Fashion Gone Rogue)

Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy Conspiracy
Coincidence, Conspiracy or Correspondence?
Ok, …
We all know that Presidents Kennedy and Lincoln died while in office. But for most people, that's all they know. But here is some very strange information that links the two. Do you believe in coincidences?
There's The History… and Then There's The Mystery
Here's the History…
Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.
Both presidents were shot while in the presence of their wives.
Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head
Let's take it a step further…
Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's secretary was named Lincoln.
Both were "supposedly" assassinated by Southerners.
Both Lincoln and Kennedy were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.
Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.
Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.
Lincoln was killed after he printed up "greenbacks" to avoid paying interest to international bankers.
Kennedy was killed after printing up silver backed dollars to avoid paying interest to international bankers.
Still not done…
Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.'
Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln ' made by 'Ford.'
John Wilkes Booth spent his last days living alone in a hotel.
Lee Harvey Oswald spent his last days living alone in a rooming house.
John Wilkes Booth ran from a theater and was caught in a tobacco warehouse.
Lee Harvey Oswald ran from a school book warehouse and was caught in a theater.
Booth and Oswald were booth arrested for petty crimes not long before the assassinations.
Booth and Oswald were killed before their trials.
Booth and Oswald both had their fathers die when they were young, and both were survived by their mothers.
Booth had written a speech (rough draft) on slavery, that was never delivered.
Oswald had written a speech (rough draft) on communism, that was never delivered.
Booth had accidentally shot himself in the thigh with his stage manager's pistol (while trying to clean it).
Oswald had accidentally shot himself in the arm with a .22 pistol while in the marines.
Booth had brother named Junius. He was known to the family as June.
Oswald had a daughter named June.
And last but sho nuff not least…
Before Lincoln was shot, he had been in Monroe, Maryland
Before Kennedy was shot, he had been in Marilyn Monroe.
Now… what is the Mystery?
Conspiracy Debuked? Coincidences Trivial?

On the 7th Day of Christmas: Tech Gifts Under $1,000
It's Friday and mommy/daddy just got paid! Drop $1,000 smackers on these gifts and you'll officially be Santa of the year. In all seriousness though, $1,000 is when you start making family decisions on the pieces, so check first with the mister or missus. It's not coal in your stocking you'd be worried about! Day 7 of The 12 Tech Days of Christmas closes out the week with a bang. Happy shopping this weekend!
Strut 70" Work Table
Unplggd's very own Jason Yang (hey, that's me) loves this sleek modern work/dining table. Its huge 70"x34" surface accommodates multiple monitors and leaves plenty of room for paperwork and face to face meetings with someone sitting on the other side. The gorgeous matte walnut stain base is connected by stainless steel hardware accents that just complete the look. What an excellent home office desk.
Apple MacBook Air
From $999
To be fair, this sub-$1,000 gift can option up to much much higher than its initial $999 base price, but $999 is $999 and you can get into the Apple game with a super slim MacBook Air. At this entry price point you get an 11" screen with 1.6GHz dual-core processor, 2GB RAM, and 64GB of onboard flash storage. It's a beautiful but expensive machine, that's for sure.
Sony NEX-5N 16.1 MP Compact Interchangeable Lens Touchscreen Camera with 18-55mm Lens
Sure you can get this camera for sub-$500 but the point is that this camera can use interchangeable lenses in what at first looks like a point and shoot form factor. It's DSLR quality that you can actually take with you when otherwise you lose the moment because your DSLR is packed away in its case at home, too cumbersome to carry with you on pretty much every single place you go.
Apple 27" LED Cinema Display
We hear you - why spend $1,000 on an Apple monitor when you can get a huge "PC" monitor for half the price? Well, it's hard to knock the gorgeous LED backlit 2560x1440 goodness that this monitor delivers. Sure, there are other high-end monitors out there for the price, but this is true beauty. It's even got a built-in iSight camera, microphone, and speakers.
Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 8350 Projector
Eek okay, forgive us for going over budget by a mere $45 in the $1,000 category. This 1080p projector is totally worth it for watching Blu-ray and other high definition content. Nothing beats the big screen experience of watching action movies up to 120". Compare that to your measly 50" flat panel TV!
Canon EOS 60D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3.0-Inch LCD (Body Only)
Alright, alright, $89 over budget, but if you scour the internet we're sure you can find yourselves a deal to bring this just under budget. The Canon EOS 60D is an 18MP digital SLR camera with a 3" LCD on the back. This is for the body only and those who say the lenses make the camera will be in for spending another small fortune. If you're graduating from point and shoot cameras, this is a great foray into the world of DSLR cameras.
Deck Out Your Entire (Dorm) Room
Okay, say we're not in the position to blow $1,000 on one single item. Take the opportunity to really do up a single room. In this example from our very own Joel Pirela you can equip your dorm full of tech gear for less than $1,000. Instead of slowly working your way around the house, just concentrate all your funds in one room and make it really nice.

Sunbeamtech Rheosmart 6 Fan Controller Review
Sunbeamtech is a relatively unknown company in North America, and their name holds more weight down below and overseas than it does here. Sunbeamtech is a multifaceted manufacturer, as they make cases, heatsinks, and even power supplies, but, what Sunbeamtech makes the most of, is computer accessories. Things like cold cathodes, fans, enclosures, and mice are more Sunbeamtech's forté. Recently, Sunbeamtech released a new line of fan controllers, called Rheosmart. The Rheosmart series is composed of several basic fan controllers, the Rheosmart 3/6/PCI. Both the Rheosmart 3 and 6 are 5.25" internal bay solutions that offer fan control either automatically via motherboard sensors, or manually via rheostats. Today I'll be taking a closer look at Sunbeamtech's Rheosmart 6.
Closer Look:
The box of the Rheosmart 6 is nice and small, which forces the text and photos to be a little smaller and closer together than if they were on a larger box. Combined with the warm shades of blue all around, it has a cozy, inviting feel just emanating from it. On the front we're treated to a scaled photo of the controller surrounded by a glowing, white halo. There are also what appear to be sound waves emanating from a small drawing of a motherboard to the Rheosmart, and sound waves emanating from it to six small drawings of fans overhead. What does this mean? Am I being told the Rheosmart 6 will make my fans noisy? Will the Rheosmart 6 utilize infrared wireless to power my case fans? Perhaps another side of the box will clarify this curious illustration? Moving on, on the left side are little icons that represent the various features of the Rheosmart 6, including, but not limited to:
- PWM Control
- 6 Channels
- Max Output 30w Per Channel
So, now I know that the Rheosmart 6 can control up to six fans and can provide 30w of power to each one. An impressive amount of power, considering this unit obtains power from a single, standard sized 4-pin Molex connection. Unfortunately, due to a lack of six, high-powered fans, I won't be able to test this. Might it also be that PWM control explains the those silly waves?
Finally, that unusual drawing on the front is explained! Essentially, what the drawing was showing is that the Rheosmart 6 can automatically control the fans connected to it by the information that the temperature sensors on the motherboard it's plugged into gives it. That means that the fan speed will be adjusted according to the temperature that the sensor provides. Sunbeamtech refers to this feature as 'Smart Cooling'. Also back here are the specifications in a nice and tidy table, and compliance logos.
The short sides of the box are void of any additional information. Only logos and names here.
And inside the Rheosmart's box is...another box! A cursory glance shows us a manual, some cables, and the Rheosmart 6 itself, snugly packed around with firm foam. Let's take a closer look and see what all comes with the Rheosmart 6.

Denny Schulstad
Air Force Brigadier General, retired:
"The Metropolitan Boys Choir is an outstanding musical organization, but they are about much more than music.
I have often asked them to perform for various military ceremonies and they always agree and are the stars of the show. However, the work Bea does goes far beyond teaching them to sing.
These young men learn self confidence, attention to detail, pride, etiquette and teamwork. They will benefit from the lessons they learn long after they have "graduated" from the Boys Choir.
I'm always amazed and impressed by their professional performances, but also by their enthusiasm and joy. Yes they sing, but they also are becoming the future leaders of our community.
Everyone should have the opportunity to study under the guidance of Bea Hasselmann. I'm proud to support this very worthwhile organization and encourage everyone to do what they can to assist this superb group of young men."
Here's a story from one of our MBC alumni, actor John Pancho Demmings
Please call 612-827-6501 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for more information, to set up an audition time or arrange to visit a rehearsal.

NZXT Lexa Blackline Case Review
Many decisions must be made when choosing the "right" case. It mostly depends on the application, whether it's going to be a gaming PC or possibly a server. Maybe even slid between your television and receiver or wrapped in a slim HTPC case. And when the choice has been made, a second important aspect comes to mind, performance. Will this case perform the way I want it to? Or even perform the way its advertised?
So, let's imagine that the choice we made is the NZXT Lexa Blackline. The Blackine is the kid brother of the Award-Winning NZXT Lexa, and this model has no intention of sitting in his older brother's shadow. Not to mention that this case has also been designed to compete in one of the most competitive and heavily scrutinized markets that a case can fall under, the Gaming/Enthusiast sector. The question then remains, will the Blackline have what it takes to climb to the top of the Gaming/Enthusiast podium?
"NZXT, a company built upon gamer's dreams, is proud to announce its addition to the high-end Gaming Classic series, the Lexa Blackline Performance Steel Mid Tower Chassis. We have always wanted to design a mean looking chassis and the original Lexa was perfect for this, with new features like the pre-drilled water cooling and glossy black finish the LEXA Blackline should prove to be a great mid-range chassis for gamers."
Closer Look:
Even from the box you begin to get a real sense for what you are unwrapping. The front of the box covered by a large high-resoultion shot from an angle, with the phrases "Maximum Cooling" and "Perfect Symmetry". The back of the box features shots from both the blue, and red version of the Lexa Blackline, and details the cooling setup, expandability and media ports, along with key features.
On the side you will find a larger, more detailed list of specifications, and is translated in five languages. Upon opening the box you notice the care that is put into shipping. Large white foam blocks on the top and bottom protect it from rough transit, and the plastic bag keeps it shielded if the box is compromised.
