For international news go to https://nuclear-news.net/
Not too late to send a quick and easy submission to the Department of Industry Innovation and Science. Heck! Send a few – that's what the pro nukers are doing.https://nowastedump.good.do/radioactivewastesubmissiontodiis/radwasteDIISsubmission/
I continue to be amazed at the achievements of Aboriginal people. For decades they have fought off the nuclear industry's attempts to turn South Australia into a nuclear hub, always starting with its plan for importing toxic radioactive trash into this beautiful agricultural and tourism State.
This past week the Barngarla Aboriginal people won the injunction to halt nuclear waste dump vote.
No – it's far from a final victory, but it's a start. I guess that the colonial masters in the past, and the nuclear lobby now, hoped that the Aboriginal people would just conveniently die out. But they didn't. And they are a force to be reckoned with. And dedicated non indigenous Australians are working with them against this foul nuclear industry.
DON'T FORGET – it's probably worthwhile to send submissions in to the Department of Industry Innovation and Science. They didn't like the majority of submissions to the Senate being so firm and articulate, and against the dump. You can resend a Submission that went to the Senate, or write a new one, or both.
The Senate Committee has now released its Report . It is a wishy washy support for the process– quotes extensively from the submissions, but has little idea of its own. Greens Dissenting Submission packs a punch, as does Senator Rex Patrick's Additional Comments.
Read summaries of submissions to the Senate, re the Selection process for a national radioactive waste management facility in South Australia. Each summary has a link to the full submission. Obviously the Department of Industry Innovation and Science (DIIS) was not happy with the majority of submissions opposing the process, so now are trying to get a better (for them) result
SUBMISSIONS CALLED FOR – about "Broad Community Support" for a nuclear waste dump in Kimba or Hawker, South Australia
The Department of Industry, Innovation and Science wants submissions between 1 August and 24 September 2018. People can resend the submissions already sent to the Senate Inquiry. Submissions to the department will only be made public where permission is provided.
Making a submission
Submissions will be one of the factors the Minister for Resources and Northern Australia may take into account when determining broad community support for the Facility.
Submissions can be made by:

NUCLEAR WASTE DUMP – Senate Committee of Inquiry
Yes, I know this sounds bizarre – BUT. Under the thumb of the nuclear industry and the military, the Australian government is working to promote the nuclear dream.
They're taking advantage of the effects of the drought on agriculture – to push the idea of a "lucrative" nuclear waste dump, to two agricultural communities in South Australia .
So – the nuclear lobby is actually benefiting in Australia – from the effects of climate change.
It seems that Australia's politicians are too stupid or self-interested to bother about climate change or about the nuclear threat.
Read the brief summaries of submissions – 55 anti-nuclear, 41 pro nuclear (13 confidential) , with links to each full submission published on this Antinuclear website.

Opinion: Trump's bipartisan deal with Democrats is a win for the American people
EDITOR'S NOTE: Boris Epshteyn formerly served as a Senior Advisor to the Trump Campaign and served in the White House as Special Assistant to The President and Assistant Communications Director for Surrogate Operations.
WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) - Gridlock.
Could it actually be on its way out of Washington, D.C.?
President Trump met with the congressional leaders from both the Democrat and Republican parties on Wednesday and achieved a bipartisan, yes, you heard that correctly, bipartisan agreement. The deal combines relief funding for Hurricane Harvey, an extension on raising the debt ceiling and a continuing resolution on the budget.
The key sticking points were over the length for the debt ceiling and federal budget extensions.
Democrat leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi proposed a 3-month extension while Republicans Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan pushed for an 18, or at the very least, a 6-month extension.
President Trump surprised Republicans when he agreed to the 3-month extension the Democrats proposed.
This is absolutely the right move by the president. He is making a bipartisan deal, which is what the American people need from our elected leaders. Partisan gridlock is not productive.
Congress now has three months to come to act on the debt ceiling and the budget. That is their job, and they should get it done.
This deal is a win for the American people, especially the victims of Hurricane Harvey, as they will be getting their necessary funding in a timely manner.
The bottom line is this. Republicans in Congress have not shown an ability to unilaterally get things done. The President promised during the campaign that he will work with Republicans and Democrats for the benefit of Americans. That is what this deal represents. Hopefully, there is more bipartisanship and less gridlock on the horizon.

You are here:
We encourage students to explore their field of study outside of the classroom in order to gain career-building experience. With the assistance of our Health Profession Advisory Committee (HPAC), pre-health students get internships which help prepare them for professional schools. Karahlyn Troutman, a biology major and pre-health student, is one of these students. Here's what Karahlyn had to say about her experience with our program and her veterinarian internships:
Karahlyn Troutman, Pre-Health Student, Lewisburg Veterinary Clinic
I've always known that I wanted to be a veterinarian. When it came time to choose a college, I was looking for a school with an excellent biology program and professors that were interested in student success. I have found these and more at Lycoming. From the first time I set foot in the Heim Building, I've felt at home and can't begin to describe the different ways in which the professors at Lycoming have prepared me for my entry into veterinary school.The professors in pre-health and pre-medicine know what professional schools are looking for and they will do everything to make sure you are prepared when you apply. Dr. Gabriel, the advisor for the pre-health students, talked me through everything from the application process, to preparing for standardized tests and recommending classes that would be best to prepare for veterinary school. Our program gives you the opportunity to take classes that are based on a liberal arts foundation and considered prerequisites at medical and veterinary schools. You're also left with freedom to choose elective classes.When I began the program, it was made very clear that internships and relevant experiences were a couple of the most important things that professional schools look for in applicants. So, I started doing observations at different local veterinary hospitals, like the Lewisburg Veterinary Clinic, right away. I observed surgeries and was able to help out with regular office hours, which involved contact with the patients and their owners. Besides the vet hospitals, I also volunteer at Sunnybrook Meadows Horse Therapy and work as a research assistant for Dr. Morrison in the Heim Building research mouse colony.Thanks to the education and internships I have received through Lycoming's Pre-Health Program, I feel confident that I am prepared to take the next step on my way to becoming a vet.
Karahlyn is just one of many pre-health students who have had an amazing experience both in and outside the classroom. Below are just a handful of other pre-health students and their internships and extracurricular experiences:

The New DJs: Fitness Gurus
Group Fitness Classes Use Music to Compete for Clients; Zumba to 'Ice Ice Baby'
Devin Murphy loves the new remix of the 1984 Bryan Adams hit "Summer of '69." She didn't hear it on the radio, notice on iTunes or see it on a friend's Spotify page. She fell for it while sweating it out at a fitness class at Barry's Bootcamp.
Ms. Murphy, 29, chooses the cross-training classes she takes four times a week in New York largely based on how much she likes the instructor's musical taste, she says. Top-40 songs get the management consultant moving, she says, while hip-hop leaves her uninspired.
"I've bought a lot of songs that I've first heard at Barry's," says Ms. Murphy.
Fitness companies are increasingly getting into the music business. The move comes with the waning impact of traditional radio on the music-buying public, and the rise of boutique exercise classes, particularly yoga, Zumba and indoor cycling.
Fitness entrepreneurs say they are investing hours in training instructors to create compelling playlists that will help generate loyal student followings—and online buzz. Music labels are pitching their emerging talent to instructors and cutting deals with fitness chains. And exercise businesses are trying to cut licensing deals with music companies in order to package and sell workout songs in much the same way that film and television executives do with soundtracks.
"We are a fitness company, but we're a music company too," says Alberto Perlman, co-founder and chief executive of Zumba Fitness LLC, which has developed a globally popular Latin-inspired dance fitness program. The company has sold more than one million downloads of its original and specially remixed songs on iTunes, and says 14 million people take at least one Zumba class per week globally.
Universal Music Group, a unit of multinational media company Vivendi SA, has joined the Zumba juggernaut. Its new CD, "Zumba Fitness Dance Party," went platinum in France last year, selling more than 100,000 units. An American version, featuring songs by Lady Gaga and Carly Rae Jepsen, among others, debuts in early March.
"There is a great overlap of fan base between our world and what's happening in the fitness world right now," says Bruce Resnikoff, chief executive of Universal Music Enterprises.
Zumba fans have already helped revive the career of Rob VanWinkle—better known as the rapper Vanilla Ice. Last year, Mr. VanWinkle rerecorded his 1990s hit "Ice Ice Baby" with a Latin flavor and Zumba-friendly tempo, then starred in a video featuring Zumba choreography. Released last August, the single has sold nearly 17,000 copies.
"Zumba reaches so many millions of people, it's like MTV was back in the day," Mr. VanWinkle says.
Flywheel Sports hired Scott Melker, a music producer and DJ, to help orchestrate the music strategy for its indoor cycling classes before opening its first studio in New York three years ago. Songs that Flywheel clients hear blaring in their spin classes in the company's growing number of satellite studios—which have since opened in cities like Chicago, Seattle and Dubai—are drawn largely from Mr. Melker's curated database of a few thousand new songs, as well as those he remixes or "mashes" together.
Labels and artists who want their music included in his playlists pitch him regularly, he says. Cyclists who want to know the names of songs they've just sweated to often bombard Mr. Melker and the instructors after classes, he says.
Many fitness instructors post playlists on websites like Facebook and Spotify in response to such student requests. "Instructors are the new DJs," Mr. Melker says.
At SoulCycle, a rapidly expanding national chain of spinning studios co-owned by Equinox Gyms, instructors are prohibited from sharing their playlists with students online. "The music is a part of what people come to SoulCycle for," says company co-founder Julie Rice. She says SoulCycle hopes to make a deal with a music label to license the label's library and then sell SoulCycle-branded playlists culled from it. With these playlists, the company will be able to stream classes on the Web for its clients who have purchased their own SoulCycle indoor bikes, which retail for $2,200.
More traditional gyms and fitness centers are also trying to harness their customers' interest in well-curated playlists.
Two years ago, Gold's Gym asked its Facebook followers to share their preferred iron-pumping jams. The social media response was so great that later that year it debuted "March Music Madness," in which people go online to submit their favorite workout songs for a bracket that mimics the NCAA's "March Madness" national basketball championship bracket. Throughout March, the gym franchise's group-fitness class instructors build some of their playlists from the suggested songs. The public votes for its favorites on marchmusicmadness.com. Last year, Kanye West's "Stronger" beat out, among others, the "Rocky" theme song. This year, the company says March Music Madness will be a battle of the bands.
Some fitness buffs may even find a musical artist making a guest appearance right in the workout room. So-called live-music yoga classes and festivals are growing in popularity. David Romanelli, a New York-based yoga instructor, led a class this summer in Colorado that was accompanied, live, by the jazz-fusion musician Stanley Jordan.
Heather Velasquez has traveled twice in the past few years to Orlando, Fla., from her home in Espanola, N.M., to attend "concerts" organized by Zumba Fitness. The 37-year-old mother of two says she is drawn to the style of music and is happy to travel to do Zumba dance routines with 8,000 other conventioneers to live music performed by artists like Wyclef Jean and Vanilla Ice. "It's all about the music," Ms. Velasquez says.
Some musicians are creating their own new genres within the fitness market niche. Nicholas Giacomini, 33, is a Point Reyes, Calif.-based hip-hop musician and yoga-studio owner who loved practicing yoga to songs that had a rap vibe, but felt most rap songs contained lyrics that didn't connect with the lessons of yoga.
Under the name MC Yogi, Mr. Giacomini began writing, recording and selling online yoga-centric rap songs, such as "Be the Change," a hip-hop telling of the story of Mahatma Gandhi. Mr. Giacomini has sold more than 100,000 albums. His music is now distributed by a division of Sony Music.
Some yoga purists complain that the practice was never intended to have any soundtrack—however meditative—beyond one's own measured breath.
And while music helps distract people from the rigors of toning their muscles and improving their heart health, it may be having an adverse effect on another body part: the eardrums. For its riders, SoulCycle supplies ear plugs, free of charge.

Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez was born in Texas on July 22, 1992. After her parents' split, she remained with her mother, who was 16 years old at the time of Gomez's birth. Her mom inspired Gomez's interest in acting, and in 2002 she joined "Barney & Friends," where she appeared with fellow child actor, Demi Lovato.
In 2007, Gomez's own Disney Channel series, "Wizards of Waverly Place," premiered, making her one of the most popular stars in her age group, alongside the likes of Miley Cyrus. The show, which won three Emmy Awards, continued through 2012. Gomez segued into music with the band Selena Gomez & The Scene, releasing its first album in 2009, with the hit "Naturally," followed by her first major movie role in "Ramona and Beezus." Subsequent movies included "Monte Carlo" and "Spring Breakers."
After two additional albums with The Scene, Gomez released her first solo record, "Stars Dance," in 2013, earning tremendous success with the single "Come and Get It." In late 2014, she signed a new record deal with Interscope, and is working on her second solo effort, in addition to new film projects.
Best friends with Taylor Swift, Gomez went public with her relationship with Justin Bieber in 2011, and the stars have had an on-and-off romance ever since. Gomez is also a UNICEF ambassador, and has participated in a number of other charitable endeavors, including We Day. Gomez's brand has further included a clothing line, a fragrance, and several endorsement deals.

A Shirt-T!

No, not a T-shirt. I really mean Shirt-T. It's refashioned out of a thrifted shirt and I am all proud about my new word, so don't make fun of me! :-)
I am wearing it together with my tweed pants, that I also made myself and posted in the studio here.
This was such a quick project, and I got to use my new serger. I never knew I could love a machine that much…
It's part of my 10 Piece Winter Travel set that you can read about on my blog. I have my paper doll model it for you there :-)
Material Notes
A thrifted shirt, very soft knit jersey, a serger and a lazy Saturday.

People seem to comment on what they think is popular here, so chin up! I love this shirt so much that I think I may just have to see about making myself something similar. And it fits you so well and looks well made!

How To Fix Horror
Stephen King may have given us the image of hordes of cockroaches creeping out of a man's mouth and of an obsessed fan sledge-hammering her favorite novelist's leg, but he can still sound a little uneasy about gross-outs. He writes in his 1981 book, Dance Macabre, "I will try to horrify, and if I find that I cannot horrify, I'll go for the gross-out. I'm not proud."
It's a reminder that while few artists have done more to bring gruesome horror into the mainstream, King belongs to a generation of artists that viewed gore as something to be a little ashamed about. Times have changed. What began in the 1960s with the first splatter films directed by Herschell Gordon Lewis has evolved into a gross-out industry that invents new and more explicit ways to destroy the human body every year. Online reviews lovingly chronicle every decapitation. Horror artists today talk about beheadings, severed penises, and slit throats without an ounce of shame.
At the same time, snobbery about gore remains, and not just among the delicate souls who cringe at the vulgarity of on-screen violence. You can detect the prejudice against gore in the praise lavished on Paranormal Activity for managing to entertain teenagers without gore. "Less is usually more when it comes to horror movies," writes the New York Post's Lou Lemenick before celebrating the movie for having almost no blood or on-screen violence. This attitude is more pronounced in the periodic screeds against "torture porn," a term used by many critics as an unthinking catch-all insult. In Entertainment Weekly, Lisa Schwarzbaum says she doesn't care about the quality or wit of gore. She simply refuses to see the "vile crap."
The pro- and anti-gore camps have polarized horror and it's time to call a truce. There are real moral and artistic questions raised by turning gouged-out eyes into a fetish, but the way gore operates in horror movies has become far too creative, complex, and artistically ambitious to dismiss out of hand.
Roughly speaking, there are two major gore traditions in horror, and they are often in tension: the ferociously realistic style and the over-the-top Grand Guignol. But a full taxonomy of gore would be far more varied. The realist tradition, for instance, contains one willfully perverse strain that adopts an almost pornographic attitude towards scars and wounds and another deeply moral one rooted in the idea that the physicality and ugliness of brutality takes away from its excitement. You see this anti-violence message in the work of David Cronenberg, who stages his grueling kills as a rejoinder to the "bang, bang—you're dead" violence of much of the horror and action genres.
The Grand Guignol style is even more diverse. There is comedic gore, which at its best (Sam Raimi's Evil Dead series, Peter Jackson's Dead Alive) has a surreal, even operatic quality. (At its more mundane, it is merely for adolescent kicks.) "What I want in gore is the sense of ridiculous," says Herschell Gordon Lewis, whose Blood Feast pioneered the form in 1963. "That's the Kingdom of Heaven." These live-action cartoons contrast sharply with the aesthetic elegance of more artful Guignol, such as the lush beauty of the movies of Italian auteurs Dario Argento or Mario Bava. Such sublime splatter brings to mind Jean Luc-Godard's response to an interviewer asking why he uses so much blood. "It's not blood," he said. "It's red."
The director who is probably the most gifted gore artist working today has shown he can work in both traditions. French filmmaker Alexandre Aja had a stunning breakthrough in 2003 with the terrifying rural nightmare Haute Tension. The crafty and suspenseful kills in this movie display an obvious affection for 1970s American horror, but his staging of chainsaw murders and girls trembling in closets is even more fiercely direct than his predecessors'. No musical hook or swooping camera takes you out of the scene. And while Aja doesn't cut away from the violence, the focus is as much on the screaming, desperate women observing it as on those being victimized. In this movie and his follow-up, the remake of The Hills Have Eyes, Aja steps firmly into the realistic tradition, but there are suggestions of a playful comic style dying to get out. Which it did, last year, in Piranha 3D.
Right from the start, this spring break exploitation blockbuster is telling you not to take it too seriously. The first scene, featuring Richard Dreyfus getting devoured in a broad Jaws reference, turns a quiet lake into a whirlpool of blood. The rest of the movie is a juvenile riot of bouncing boobs and bubbling blood. But in between underwater make-out sessions between skinny-dipping bombshells and Christopher Lloyd chewing scenery as furiously as a killer fish eating human flesh, one epic scene jarringly stands out, ushering the realistic tradition into this Grand Guignol lark.
Imagine if Stephen Spielberg got cold feet right before shooting the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan and decided to replace the soldiers on the beaches in Normandy with co-eds in Lake Victoria, Ariz., and you have a sense of this beach-party massacre. It starts as a ghoulish joke. The piranhas split bodies in two and pick apart eyeballs. As the scene (which goes on for more than 20 minutes) unfolds, Aja starts showing the fallout: the anguished faces, the panic, the realization that limbs are gone. The violence also begins to look more real. In the middle of this cartoonish bloodbath, Aja can't resist making us feel the pain.
It's the most virtuosic and problematic part of the movie, because in mixing these two traditions, Aja ruins some of the fun of the B-movie exploitation and undercuts any potential seriousness by marrying it to a silly fish attack. The gore here is disturbing, and the scene transforms Piranha 3D into one of those movies that is incredibly fun until you feel disgusting for finding it so. The effect is a horror movie that mixes high and lowbrow, real and the ridiculous. It's gore to feel proud of and ashamed about at the same time.
But doesn't explicit violence corrupt young minds and desensitize audiences to grave tragedies?
Intense, brutal violence has been around for a long time (as Justice Scalia noted last week, Grimm's fairy tales "are grim indeed"), and sensationalistic cable news might inure us to the horrors of the world as much as violent movies or video games. Then again, if the beauty and delightful dread of scary movies can have an intense impact on fans, then the physical and moral ugliness can, too. Some gore is merely revolting. But in the end, the morality of gory movies has less to do with the quantity of blood on-screen than in the way that blood is spilled. You can denounce Reservoir Dogs for making a psychopath look cool as he gleefully cuts off a policeman's ear without concluding that all ear-severing scenes are contemptible. (As I report in Shock Value, Wes Craven walked out of Reservoir Dogs during this scene.) Gore can deliver cheap, pandering shocks. But it can also make us aware of the meaning and danger of violence in a way that few other cinematic images can. Sometimes, it does a little bit of both.

The man who tried to blow up a U.S. passenger plane three Christmases ago was sentenced to life in prison in a Detroit courtroom today. Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, 25, boarded Northwest Flight 253 in Amsterdam on Dec. 25, 2009, with a massive bomb hidden in his underwear. As the plane approached Detroit, he tried to detonate the explosives. They failed to go off.
Four months ago, on the second day of his criminal trial, Abdulmutallab pleaded guilty.
Judge Nancy Edmunds' decision to put Abdulmutallab away for life without possibility of parole was not a surprise: two of the eight terrorism and conspiracy charges to which he pleaded guilty carried mandatory life sentences.
"This was an act of terrorism that cannot be quibbled with," Edmunds said.
Several people who were on the flight that day spoke in court ahead of the sentencing. They talked about what the attempted attack had wrought and how, even today, nearly three years later, they are still skittish about flying. Abdulmutallab, who acted as his own attorney, also provided a statement to the court. He didn't use the opportunity to express remorse, but instead sought to explain why his attack on Flight 253 was a mission from God.
Abdulmutallab spoke briefly in court. He said his sentencing was a "day of victory," adding that the Quran instructs Muslims to kill people in God's name and Jews should be driven out of Palestine.
Edmunds listened patiently as the young Nigerian spoke and after he was done, gave her ruling.
While the life sentence was hardly a surprise — it was mandated by federal law — some of the details that came out ahead of Abdulmutallab's sentencing were new. In particular, a document prepared for Judge Edmunds that assessed the level of danger Abdulmutallab presented shed new light on the role American-born radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki played in the most major plot on U.S. soil since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. In a 22-page report, an Israeli criminologist who specializes in interviewing suicide bombers, Simon Perry, said that Abdulmutallab had revealed that Awlaki not only inspired him, which was known, but also masterminded the attack.
According to the report, Abdulmutallab told the FBI that he went to Yemen in search of Awlaki in late 2009. Abdulmutallab had listened to Awlaki's sermons and heard in them a calling: He decided his destiny was to become a martyr for Islam. So he traveled to Yemen and went from mosque to mosque asking if someone could help him reach Awlaki.
Eventually the two traded text messages. Awlaki made Abdulmuttallab write an essay about his commitment to jihad and then, eventually, had him driven to his desert home. Awlaki discussed the plot with Abdulmutallab, introduced him to an al-Qaida explosives expert who made the underwear bomb, and then spent days helping Abdulmutallab perfect his martyrdom video.
Awlaki was killed in a U.S. drone attack in Yemen last year. The Obama administration said that he was an operative for al-Qaida and therefore, even though he was an American, born in New Mexico, he was a legitimate target. Until the Abdulmutallab sentencing document, the Obama administration had not provided any proof for its allegations. Awlaki was better known as a propagandist for al-Qaida's arm in Yemen, al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula.
The Justice Department may have decided to release those new details about his more operational role to prepare for a speech that Attorney General Eric Holder is expected to give in the coming days that outlines the legal justification the administration used to target Awlaki.
Awlaki was not the only American killed in that Yemeni drone attack. A North Carolina man named Samir Khan was also in the car when the drone struck. The sentencing document includes some details about Khan, too. It says that he also met with Abdulmutallab in Yemen and provided counseling and advice ahead of Abdulmutallab's Christmas Day mission.
Now to the latest in a high-profile terrorism case. Three Christmases ago, a young man was on board a flight from Amsterdam to Detroit armed with a bomb. It was hidden in his underwear. The bomb malfunctioned and the would-be suicide bomber was caught. He eventually pleaded guilty to terrorism charges. That defendant, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, was sentenced in Detroit today to life in prison without parole.
NPR's Dina Temple-Raston was in the courtroom. She joins me now. And, Dina, why don't you walk us through what happened in the sentencing today?
DINA TEMPLE-RASTON, BYLINE: Well, you know, there's a certain protocol to these sentencing hearings. It usually starts out the victims' statements then the defendant is allowed to speak, and then the sentence itself is meted out.
So there were five victims who spoke, including the flight attendant who actually put out the fire that was on Abdulmutallab when the bomb flamed but didn't actually go off. Then we heard from Abdulmutallab himself, and he definitely wasn't repentant. When the victims were speaking, he didn't seem to be listening. And, in fact, in his statement, he ended up addressing each of them, and he said that he had boarded that flight with a bomb because mujahedeen - religious warriors, like him - were proud to kill in the name of God. And then in his statement, he mentioned Osama bin Laden and the American-born radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, and he said the two of them lived on through jihadists like him.
BLOCK: So after that statement from the defendant came the sentence from the judge: life in prison without parole.
TEMPLE-RASTON: Yes. Judge Nancy Edmunds, you know, listened to his statement, and he had pleaded guilty to eight counts of terrorism and attempted murder charges. And she basically gave him the maximum sentence for every count. And I don't think that that outcome was much of a surprise.
BLOCK: Dina, we heard you mention the American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki. Talk about his role in this plot.
TEMPLE-RASTON: Yes. Well, you remember Awlaki is that radical cleric who may be best known as a propagandist for al-Qaida's arm in Yemen. He had this huge presence and a Facebook page and a lot of English-speaking followers. What we knew about Abdulmutallab was that he had said he was inspired by him. What is new are these details that came out in this court document that was supposed to help the judge make a decision about the sentencing. And that document revealed the extent of Awlaki's role in the plot.
Abdulmutallab told investigators that he went to Yemen in search of Awlaki, and he wanted to martyr himself. And he eventually actually went to Awlaki's house in the desert and trained with him for several days. And he said Awlaki connected him with an al-Qaida bomb maker who actually constructed the underwear bomb and even helped him make his martyrdom video.
BLOCK: Was Abdulmutallab basically saying that al-Awlaki was the mastermind, the instigator ordering this attack then?
TEMPLE-RASTON: Yes, essentially. And the reason why this is so important is because Awlaki was killed by a U.S. drone strike in Yemen late last year. And it was a very controversial strike because Awlaki was born in New Mexico. He's an American. And the Obama administration said he was operational - was an operational threat. But they provided any evidence to back that up. The release of these details from the Abdulmutallab case are a start. And we're expecting the attorney general, Eric Holder, to talk about the legal justification for killing Awlaki any time now.
I mean, we understand that there's a speech being prepared to at least address the issue. And we don't know when that speech is going to be given, but it seems that the details in this Abdulmutallab filing could be readying the ground for that.
BLOCK: And, Dina, as for the so-called underwear bomber, where will he be serving this life - this sentence of life in prison?
TEMPLE-RASTON: It's unclear, although I asked a U.S. prosecutor about this, and she said more than likely he would be at the supermax in Florence, Colorado, where a lot of these other convicted terrorists are also serving their time.
BLOCK: OK, Dina, thank you very much.
TEMPLE-RASTON: You're welcome.
BLOCK: That's NPR's Dina Temple-Raston. We were talking about the sentencing today of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the so-called underwear bomber, in Detroit. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Sarah London (three), Madison Neal (two) and Sydney Phillips (two) had more than one hit.
Savanna Hallman, Stephanie Smith, Sydney Weaver and Lauren Wolfe also had hits.
Two of London's three hits were doubles.
Punxsy coach Ken Covatch was pleased with Phillips effort.
"Sydney Phillips provided leadership offensively and defensively," Covatch said. "(She had) one double and commanded her infield, calling a great game from behind the plate."
Hallman was one-for-two at the plate, but stole home early in the game and finished with four stolen bases.
Punxsy took a 4-0 lead after the first inning and added two runs in the second, eight in the third and two in the fourth.
Phillips (three), Hallman (three), London (two), Ashley Bacha, Smith, Sydney Weaver, Madison Neal, Kate Cressley, Ashley Reitz, Wolfe and Mary Sloniger all scored runs for the Chucks.
Covatach said that Smith contributed well on both sides of the ball.
"Steph Smith did an outstanding job defensively in right field with two spectacular catches," Covatch said.
Curwensville scored its lone run in the top of the third inning.
Sarah London pitched a complete game for the Lady Chucks, striking out a batter.
"Sarah London pitched a solid game," Covatch said. "She also doubled twice."

Opposed to new water tower
Do as I say, not as I do.
In the Sept. 1 issue of the Jamestown Press, there is a story on the back page about the zoning board to rule on a 70-foot tower for Cingular Wireless.
At the May zoning board meeting that the paper alludes to, the town of Jamestown also requested a special-use permit to build another 130-foot water tower on Howland Avenue, in a P zone. They also requested variences for setbacks and height restrictions. the article condems the cell companies request because the cell tower will be 35 feet higher than the existing pole.
The town's request was for a 130-foot tower that exceeds the maximum height restrictions in a P zone of 35 feet by 105 feet, more than three times as high as zoning regulations allow. The article goes on to say that the location of the cell tower would require setback allowances because the pole is less than 30 feet from the side property line. The town's request for the proposed water tower on Howland Avenue will have less than 45 feet, where 50 feet is required, plus an additional 1 foot of setback for every foot of height, in addition to the minimum relief, that means 130 + 50 = 180 feet of setback on all four sides (sec 82-305).
The lot on Howland Avenue is 23,397 square feet where 40,000square feet is required, and on that 23,397 square feet, there is already a one-million-gallon water tower, three out buildings, a 10by 50-foot by 8-foot high fence, and a commercial generator (sec 82-306).
The town's requests were unamiously denied by the entire zoning board at the may meeting, and they were told to go to the planning board to come up with a contingency plan and alternate sites for the tower. One zoning board member asked if they realized what they were asking to do, putting another water tower in a residential area. Suggestions were made to look into storing the water underground. The town said that was a feasible option,
When asked why we needed a new water tower, the response was "for fire protection" to which one zoning board member said, "We don't have a lot of fires in Jamestown." When asked by the zoning board if the tower had to be located on a hill, the response was "no," the pressure comes from pumps not the height of the tower. When asked who was going to pay for this, the response was, just the residents that use town water.
Two weeks later the planning board okayed the requests and within a month the zoning board, who was so much against the tower being put in a residential area with no contigency plan or alternative sites, unamiously passed the town's request. My question is where is the contignecy plan and where are the alternative sites that were requested by the zoning board.
The zoning board has been hammering Cingular Wireless for four months over a cell phone tower on an empty lot in a non-residential area, but was able to approve another 130-foot one-million-gallon water tower on a lot that was too small to construct the first tower on, in a residential neighborhood, in less than one month. There is something seriously wrong with this picture.
It seems to me and everyone else that I talk to, that when we are losing 1.5 million gallons of water a day out of the South reservoir, that building a one million gallon water tower that equates to one days waste, is not in the best interest of the taxpayers of Jamestown, It will do NOTHING to eleviate the shortages, it will do NOTHING to improve the quality of our water, and it certaintly will do NOTHING to lower our water bills. SO WHY ARE WE BUILDING IT?
Where will the two million gallons of water go if something happens to the water towers?

Keeping the town beach clean
I applaud some of the suggestions in last week's letter to the editor titled "All Should Help Keep Beach Clean". However, the personal nature of the piece compels me to respond to some of the more spurious and careless statements.
The writer's dismissal of the news article I referred to in my earlier letter is unfortunate. The article contained much useful information along with testimony from an out of state marine biologist, an expert on seaweed, that was quite enlightening. Since the author claimed to be responding to my letter, which was about seaweed, her utter dismissal of the topic is puzzling.
The suggestion that soiled diapers on the beach, however offensive, are responsible for high bacteria counts in test water samples is also unfortunate, as it encourages ignorance of the real causes. At the risk of being dismissed again, I will point out that today, Sept. 1, the Providence Journal reported that the RIDEM had ordered the closing of several more ocean beaches in our area due to high bacteria counts. The reason given was runoff from recent rains. We are accustomed to beach closings in the upper bay, but today's list included Easton's Beach, Newport, Atlantic Beach, Middletown, and Scarborough Beach in Narragansett. With our own bacteria levels rising, though still "safe," should we ignore events in these other communities as the writer suggests? I would add that a stroll on any of these other beaches, especially late in the day, reveals the same types of litter found here. We are not "different," as the author claims.
On the topic of litter, I object to the writer's claim that I need "education." For over a quarter century, I have given countless hours of my time as a volunteer cleaning up not only Mackerel Cove but all of our beaches, as well as parks and ball fields. My own education in this particular area, and that of dozens of fellow volunteers, comes from hands-on experience. Jamestown employs a team of four youths and one adult supervisor in the summer to remove litter. They are among the most dedicated workers I have ever employed. The problem with litter, as with seaweed, is that the job of removing it is endless.
The suggestion that the beach could or should be mechanically raked at 1 p.m. is incredible, and makes me wonder how often the author actually goes to the beach. This would hardly be an "agreeable solution" for most beachgoers.
I encourage the writer to follow through on her laudable suggestions regarding volunteer efforts to supplement the town's work. I also encourage her not to limit her efforts to Mackerel Cove. She might start by introducing herself to year-round volunteer and Youth Litter and Conservation Corps Supervisor Bonnie Jamison. She would soon become educated herself as to the magnitude of the growing litter problem, and the steps, including public education, that are already being taken.

Generosity noted
On behalf of Bob and Peggy Rotondo, who are summer residents at Ft. Getty and winter residents in Ocean Springs, Miss., I would like to say a heartfelt thank-you to the family at 206 Capstan St. (I never got their names.)
The family recently held a yard sale which Peggy and I visited. When Peggy explained that she would be returning to her home in Mississippi, which is on the gulf coast area devastated by Hurricane Katrina, and that she wanted to purchase one of the cots they had for sale, they kindly donated a cot, several folding chairs, and an air mattress for Peggy to either use if she had to take people into her home or to donate to her church in Mississippi.
It is heartwarming to know that there are such generous, caring people on Jamestown who are so willing to help those in need.
Thank you again for your kindness, and may God bless you and all the people of Jamestown.
Deborah Balukas,

A successful tour
On Saturday, Aug. 27, some 350 individuals visited seven gardens in Jamestown, which, despite a water ban and a summer long drought, amazed everyone with a bounty of colorful flowers and vegetables.
The Quononoquott Garden Club played host for the tour, which also encouraged everyone to visit all of Jamestown's scenic and historic attractions. People came from as far away as London, upstate New York, and surrounding states for a chance to see Jamestown at its end-of-summer best.
The club will use the tour proceeds to continue its efforts at beautifying the island through the planting of daffodils, the purchase of waste receptacles and benches, landscape facelifts to town buildings, and much more. In upcoming weeks, the club will announce how these funds will be spent.
The 40 members of the club want to thank everyone who took the tour. We take great pride in accomplishing our civic projects and could not continue them without your support. Thank-yous also go to Baker's Pharmacy, the Secret Garden, and Frerich's Farm, who sold so many of our tickets, to the Jamestown Police Department, for helping out with traffic control, and to Kate Leyon, for providing video recording services to make a permanent record of the tour.
Thank-you to Crystal Spring Water, which provided much of the thirst-quenching water that was given to tour participants on that hot sunny day.
We also thank all of the homeowners who toiled endlessly all summer to make their gardens the best they could be. They are Jack and Mary Brittain, Bill McCarthy, Joe and Donna Drago, David and Jennifer Clancy, Donna and Jeff Sisson, Monty and Veronika Neronha, and Bob and Lynda Sutton and all the volunteers at the Jamestown Community Farm. Also, thanks go to Rita and Anthony Antine for volunteering their house for the post-tour party.
We could not have done it without all of you.
Donna Drago, Gloria
Westlake, Joyce Allphin, Jill Meyer, Linda Warner, the Quononoquott Garden
Club A hunter's view
I am writing to substantiate the information expressed in a Letter to the Editor from Art Chapman of Cranston. I too am a hunter and have been reading all the articles with interest concerning Jamestown's increasing deer population. I as well did not appreciate Ms. Crawford's speaking on behalf of hunters. Her statement and I quote that "hunting by bow and arrow is cruel even by most hunters' standards" is pure conjecture on her part. I will go out on a limb here and guess that Ms Crawford does not and never has hunted. Ms. Crawford should be allowed her personal opinion but is not qualified to speak for "most hunters." I fall into the category of "most hunters" and would like to argue this point.
To begin with, I am an avid hunter and have hunted deer for 27 years. I also have harvested deer with many weapons, including a bow and arrow. As Mr. Chapman indicated in his letter, which is consistent with my own experience, deer do die very quickly with a well placed arrow; it is not cruel; in fact quite the opposite. So in my opinion and based on actual experience, Ms. Crawford does not have any idea of what she speaks. Again from personal experience with a bow and arrow, and from my observation when hunting with others, archery hunters try to be close, usually inside 30 yards (the distance from home plate to first base in a regulation ball field), in order to make an accurate shot.
I practice every week with my bow so as not to make any bad shots at deer in order to harvest them quickly. These are the type of archery hunters, like Mr. Chapman and me, which the DEM is proposing to utilize for the Beavertail Cooperative Archery Deer Hunt, hunters that are required per regulation to pass Hunter Safety Courses, and have passed the DEM proficiency testing to obtain a permit for Jamestown.
For the record, I would like to mention that my hunting helps alleviate a growing deer population at no cost to anyone but myself. I am required to pay for a hunting license, and then purchase the deer tags for the state of Rhode Island. In my case, the total is $180.50 this year alone, all of which is used to support wildlife conservation. These license fees do not include the percentage amount that the government takes from my huntingrelated purchases of equipment and ammunition, again utilized to support wildlife conservation (Pittman-Robertson Act). Finally, I provide further funding assistance for wildlife conservation through my memberships in wildlife conservation organizations like the National Wild Turkey Federation and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.
In closing, I would like to see archery hunting allowed in Jamestown on public land and would be happy to help any landowner solve a current deer problem on private property.

Breathtaking morning light.
Witness the awe and power of this natural phenomenon, known to the locals as Thors Well. This massive hole embedded in the porous volcanic rock near the coast of central Oregon swells with sea water during high tides and drains below with immense speed. Formed over hundreds of years, this dangerous yet beautiful spectacle shows off the Pacific Oceans never-ending ability carve and shape the land.

Bonjour! I have been in Paris! I was lucky enough to tag along with my husband on a business trip. I can not even express how exciting it was for me to be able to experience Paris at Christmastime!!!
Before we left for Paris, I made an Advent calendar for the kids. I found the cutest little Kraft paper bags on Etsy and decided to use those to create our Advent calendar.
We did a similar Advent calendar last year and it was a big hit...I filled the bags with a small treat for the kids every day and my husband and I also took turns writing the kids a note of love and encouragement, telling them how proud we were of various different things they have done. I like to use the Christmas season to remind the kids of Jesus' love for us and that we need to speak more kindly to one another and treat each other the way He would want us to. So the Advent calendar is a nice blend of fun for the kids and a way to remind them to remember the reason for the season!

MOSCOW (AP) — Russia on Monday accused the West of effectively using blackmail to secure a new U.N. Security Council resolution that threatens sanctions and could open the door for possible future use of military force to end Syria's civil war.
The Security Council is deeply divided over a new resolution on Syria as international envoy Kofi Annan's plan for halting the fighting appears dead and the violence in the Arab state escalates. The international Red Cross formally declared the conflict in Syria a civil war over the weekend, which paves the way for potential war crimes prosecutions.
The debate comes ahead of the July 20 expiration of the mandate for the 300-strong U.N. observer force that was deployed to Syria to monitor implementation of Annan's six-point peace plan and a cease-fire.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Monday that the West was holding the observer mission hostage to its demands for sanctions on President Bashar Assad's government.
Russia, a longtime Syria ally, faces intense criticism that it is standing in the way of an end to the conflict there by refusing to approve a resolution even threatening possible sanctions, which the U.S. and its European allies are demanding.
Lavrov met Annan on Monday evening, though they were not expected to talk to the press afterward. The former U.N. chief was scheduled to meet with Russian President Putin on Tuesday.
Russia has adamantly opposed international military intervention in Syria, and such a step has been all but ruled out publicly by Western nations.
But the text for a Western-backed resolution circulated by Britain threatening sanctions would leave the possibility open for military enforcement under the U.N. Charter's Chapter 7. Russia has submitted a rival text that makes no mention of Chapter 7 or sanctions but would extend the U.N. observer mission.
Lavrov insisted that the West was using the July 20 deadline for the mission's mandate as a bargaining chip.
"To our great regret, there are elements of blackmail," Lavrov said at a news conference. "We are being told that if you do not agree to passing the resolution under Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, then we shall refuse to extend the mandate of the monitoring mission."
"We consider it to be an absolutely counterproductive and dangerous approach, since it is unacceptable to use monitors as bargaining chips," he said.
U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice told reporters at U.N. headquarters in New York that Annan should tell the Russians what he told council members last week: "that he needs the council to come together around a resolution that makes very clear that there are consequences for non-compliance."
The British draft threatens non-military sanctions against Assad's government if it doesn't withdraw troops and heavy weapons from population centers within 10 days.
A closed council session Monday afternoon made no progress in bridging the differences.
Rice, the U.S. envoy, said the observer mission has been unable to do its job because of the escalating violence and if the council is not prepared "to back up the mandate we gave them with the tools at our disposal, even to threaten sanctions, not even impose sanctions under Chapter 7, then we're leaving these guys hanging — and it's completely, not only ineffective, but it's immoral."
The Security Council has scheduled a vote on the resolution Wednesday — leaving two days for possible last-minute maneuvering before the observer mission's mandate expires. Both the British and Russian texts have been put in a final form for a vote.
Russia and China have vetoed two resolutions that mentioned the threat of sanctions against Assad's regime. But they did vote for the resolution authorizing the observer mission and endorsing Annan's six-point plan.
Russia's U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin told reporters he refused to participate in the council's closed-door discussions on Monday because a Chapter 7 resolution "is totally unacceptable to us."
If the British draft is put to a vote, Churkin said, "I made it clear that we are going to vote against this resolution — and we are not going to be the only ones."
"We know that this is seen by some as a stepping stone for foreign military intervention," he said.
Churkin added that it will be "counterproductive" and "wrong" if the council doesn't extend the mandate of the observer mission and endorse the guidelines for a political transition in Syria which were approved at a meeting in Geneva last month.
China's U.N. Ambassador Li Baodong told reporters "we have problems with Chapter 7 elements but we think that the council members should continue consultations to solve the differences."
Throughout the 16-month Syrian crisis, in which activists say some 17,000 people have been killed in fighting between Assad's forces and opposition groups, Russia has warned against foreign military intervention, fearing a repeat of the type of international action that helped drive Libya's Moammar Gadhafi out of power.
Syria is Russia's last remaining ally in the Middle East, and Moscow wants to retain a foothold in the region. Although the Kremlin has criticized Assad for heavy-handed use of force during the 18-month uprising, it — along with China — also has shielded the regime from international sanctions over its violent crackdown.
Russia maintains that any change of power in Syria must be achieved through negotiation, but the Syrian opposition has repeatedly said no negotiations with the Assad regime are possible unless he first leaves power.
Comments by Annan last week indicated that he favors the British resolution draft, but it was unclear if he would have any significant leverage to exert on Russia during his two-day trip to Moscow.
Associated Press Writer Edith M. Lederer contributed to this report from the United Nations.

Any kid who's ever played king of the mountain has wondered, "What if we ruled the world?" No grown-ups, no rules, just chaos, candy, and cacophony. Picture that grand experiment scaled down to 34 minutes of audio.
More sound art than documentary, this beguiling piece by Alessandro Bosettirequires some aural re-orientation. The narrative thread isn't immediately apparent, and if I hadn't read the description by the fine folks at Third Coast, I might have turned off this sonic abstract expressionism too soon.
The key to understanding this remarkable piece is to let storytelling fall by the wayside and approach it like modern art. The piece alternates between surprising precociousness and total immaturity. It leaves you guessing, just like kids everywhere inevitably do.

Donald A. D'Amato
Donald A. D'Amato, 80, of Warwick passed away June 15, 2012 at Kent Hospital. He was the beloved husband of Jean T. (Carroll) D'Amato.
Born in Boston, Massachusetts, he was a son of the late Donato and Carmela Theresa (Mutascio) D'Amato. Mr. D'Amato was an educator in the Warwick School System for 30 years. He was also a freelance writer for the Warwick Beacon, Cranston Herald, Old Rhode Island Magazine and Prime Time Magazine. He was a graduate of Boston English High School, received his BA from Northeastern University in 1954 and his Masters in History and English from University of Rhode Island. He also completed graduate studies at Brown University. He served as an Instructor at C.C.R.I. and Johnson & Wales University. Mr. D'Amato authored 14 books on Warwick and Rhode Island History and was awarded the designation of Warwick Historian during the Flaherty Administration. He was a member of the Rhode Island and Warwick Historical Societies and the Apponaug Improvement Association.
He was the loving father of William J. D'Amato of Freedom, Maine, Donna M. McKee of Sacramento, California, Theresa A. Spencer of Warwick, Joanne M. Amaral of Voluntown, Connecticut and the late Carmela A. Leonard. Caring step father of Timothy Deignan of Warwick, Michael Deignan of Brazil and Joseph McGrath of Groveland, California. Cherished grandfather of nine and great-grandfather of four.
His Funeral Service will be held Friday at 11:00 am in The Urquhart-Murphy Funeral Home, 800 Greenwich Ave., Route 5, Warwick (Exit 12A on I-95). Relatives and friends are invited and may call Thursday 2-4 and 6-8 pm. Burial will be private. www.murphyfuneralhomes.org
It's been 35 years since we first met and more than 40 years since my wife knew you as a teacher. Since then we have been friends, colleagues and now we will miss you dearly. Our sympathies to all your family.
Rick and Gail
I was one of the lucky ones who had Mr. D'Amato for Rhode Island history at Warwick Veteran's High School. Mr. D'Amato was an important part of my love of history. I went on to major in American Culture Studies at Roger Williams College. I volunteered at Betsy Williams' Cottage in RWP. I worked at Slater Mill as a tour guide and Mystic Seaport Museum as a tour guide and gave lectures about whaling. If I hadn't taken Mr. D'Amato's class I wonder if my path would have been any different. His enthusiasm for history and his ability to make it come alive was an important part of my own enthusiasm. I have not seen Mr. D'Amato or heard his voice in many many years but in my mind I hear his voice clearly. He is the kind of person who you think of fondly and don't forget. I'm sure he affected many lives.

CLAY, N.Y. (AP) - March 15, 2013 --Police have accused a man of fatally stabbing a school librarian and raping her child after carjacking them at a central New York mall.
They say the woman was leaving a gymnastics class with her 10-year-old daughter when the attacker stopped them at the mall in Clay at about 9 p.m. Thursday.
Troopers say 29-year-old David Renz raped the girl and killed the woman in the Syracuse suburb. The girl managed to escape.
Trooper Jack Keller said Friday that the woman died Thursday night and the child is hospitalized.
Renz, of Cicero, has been charged with murder, rape and kidnapping. It wasn't initially known if he has a lawyer.
The Associated Press doesn't publish information that could identify potential sex-crime victims and isn't naming the woman to protect the child's identity.
