Tango Icon Library
Where We Are
We have already designed a basic set of Tango icons that is far from complete, yet usable on KDE and Gnome already.
- Tango Icon Gallery - a sample implementation of the naming spec following the style guidelines.
- Tango Screenshots - see how we're progressing in unification of the look.
You can check out the tango-icon-theme module from freedesktop.org cvs:
cvs -d:pserver:firstname.lastname@example.com:/cvs/tango login cvs -d:pserver:firstname.lastname@example.com:/cvs/tango co tango-icon-theme
You can check out the icon-naming-utils module from freedesktop.org cvs:
cvs -d:pserver:firstname.lastname@example.com:/cvs/icon-theme login cvs -d:pserver:email@example.com:/cvs/icon-theme co icon-naming-utils
An extended set of tango icons is available in the tango-icon-theme-extras module from freedesktop.org cvs:
cvs -d:pserver:email@example.com:/cvs/tango login cvs -d:pserver:firstname.lastname@example.com:/cvs/tango co tango-icon-theme-extras
- icon-naming-utils-0.7.2.tar.gz
- tango-icon-theme-0.7.2.tar.gz
- tango-icon-theme-extras-0.1.0.tar.gz
- Older Versions
The Tango icon library contains a basic set of icons for the most common usage. To make it easier for a developer to find an appropriate icon for his application a number of aids are there to help.
The SVG versions of the icons contain useful meta information such as keywords which enable searching. The naming specification defines structured naming scheme that also helps.
In future we also plan to provide a web-based searching facility for finding icons easily.
How to Participate
- You may file bugs in our Bugzilla
- The icon-naming-utils may be missing links to existing names. Patches are welcome on the tango mailing list.
- You should make sure you have read and understood Generic Icon Theme Guidelines. Suggestions to improve the guidelines to better match the goals of the Tango project are welcome on the tango-artists mailing list.
- As for file formats, the bitmap icons should be RGBA PNG and the vector icons in SVG format.
- While this is no requirement, we suggest you use Free Software to produce the artwork. Try Inkscape for a vector editor and GIMP fits the bill perfectly as a bitmap icon editor.
- Join the Tango-artists mailing list.
- If you are an independent software vendor and you aim to comply with theme guidelines, let us know your thoughts too. Screenshots are welcome.
Additional Sets
While the base set aims to fulfill the core icon needs, we are working on additional icon sets for used in specialized applications.
- Art Libre Set -- for graphics applications.
- Tango Deprecated -- widely used icons that don't make much sense to drag along.
- Gaim theme -- theme for Gaim.
- Emotes Kopete -- smiley theme for kopete.
- Emotes Psi -- smiley theme for Psi.
- Orange Tango -- a derivative of the standard Tango theme, using a more orange approach.
- Tango Icons for Firefox -- Mozilla Firefox theme
- Tango Icons for Firefox -- Mozilla Firefox theme #2 (bugged on Windows)
- Tango Icons for Thunderbird -- Mozilla Thunderbird theme
- Opera Icon Theme -- an Opera browser "skin" using tango-styled icons.
- Tango Project resources for java developers

WEDNESDAY, Nov. 2, 2011 (HealthDay News) — Obese teens who want to lose weight may not be going about it in the most healthy or effective ways, according to new research.
Simply put, the researchers said, teens trying to drop the pounds don't seem to fully understand the link between exercise and calories. The analysis of nearly 44,000 adolescents who participated in the Philadelphia Youth Risk Behavioral Survey showed that, among the obese, girls who exercised still drank soda and boys didn't exercise at all.
In addition, three-quarters of the obese teens said they were trying to lose weight, but these were also the teens more likely to smoke, possibly as a weight loss aid, the study suggested.
U.S. childhood obesity rates have tripled over the past three decades, and nearly one in three children in America is overweight or obese today. The new study, slated for presentation at the American Public Health Association's annual meeting in Washington, D.C., sheds some light on why reducing these rates is such an uphill battle.
Obese girls who were trying to lose weight were more likely to engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity each day, but they were also more likely to consume a sugary soda on a daily basis, which basically offsets many of the benefits of their daily exercise, said the study's author, Clare Lenhart, a public health doctoral candidate at Temple University in Philadelphia.
"Most of them are interested in losing weight and that is a positive, but the soda has enough calories to make up for all of those that they expended during physical activity," she explained.
Obese males who were trying to lose weight did not exercise and spent more than three hours a day playing video games, the study showed.
"If someone is obese and trying to lose weight, doctors need to ask follow-up questions to find out how they are going about it and give suggestions on how to modify their behaviors," Lenhart said.
Dr. Yolandra Hancock, a primary care pediatrician at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C., said that adolescents are motivated to change, but there is a lack of education about how to do that in a healthy way.
"The study demonstrates a clear lack of understanding about how much calories are burned during exercise," she said. "To burn off the calories in one sugary soda, you need to run a mile, and most teenagers don't engage in that level of physical activity," Hancock noted.
"If an adolescent is trying to lose weight, it is important to ask them how they are going about it, because we may find out that there is lack of education about calories in and calories out," she added. "This is especially important in adolescents and teens because they are starting to make decisions for themselves in terms of what they will eat and how often they will exercise."
Hancock usually stresses the easy-to-understand 5-2-1-0 rule to overweight and obese teens who want and need to lose weight. This refers to five fruits and vegetables a day, two hours or less of screen time such as TV or video games a day, one hour of physical activity a day, and zero or very little sugar-sweetened beverages a day.
There is also room for compromise in this rule, she added. For example, "if an overweight or obese young man wants to play video games, they can play 'Just Dance' . . . or other active video games," she said. "There is a way to meet in the middle."
Because this study was presented at a medical meeting, the data and conclusions should be viewed as preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Brain and spinal cord tumors are masses of abnormal cells in the brain or spinal cord that have grown out of control.
In most other parts of the body, it is very important to distinguish between benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) tumors. Benign tumors do not grow into nearby tissues or spread to distant areas, so in other parts of the body they are almost never life threatening. One of the main reasons malignant tumors are so dangerous is because they can spread throughout the body.
Although brain tumors rarely spread to other parts of the body, most of them can spread through the brain tissue. Even so-called benign tumors can, as they grow, press on and destroy normal brain tissue, causing damage that is often disabling and sometimes fatal. For this reason, doctors usually speak of "brain tumors" rather than "brain cancers." The main concerns with brain and spinal cord tumors are how readily they spread through the rest of the brain or spinal cord and whether they can be removed and not come back.
Brain and spinal cord tumors tend to be different in adults and children. They often form in different areas, develop from different cell types, and may have a different outlook and treatment.
The central nervous system
To understand brain and spinal cord tumors, it helps to know about the normal structure and function of the central nervous system (CNS), which is the medical name for the brain and spinal cord.
The brain is the center of thought, feeling, memory, speech, vision, hearing, movement, and much more. The spinal cord and special nerves in the head called cranial nerves help carry messages between the brain and the rest of the body. These messages tell our muscles how to move, transmit information gathered by our senses, and help coordinate the functions of our internal organs.
The brain is protected by the skull. Likewise, the spinal cord is protected by the bones (vertebrae) of the spinal column.
The brain and spinal cord are surrounded and cushioned by a special liquid, called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Cerebrospinal fluid is made by the choroid plexus, which is located in spaces within the brain called ventricles. The ventricles and the spaces around the brain and spinal cord are filled with CSF.
Parts of the brain and spinal cord
The main areas of the brain include the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem. Each of these parts has a special function.
Cerebrum: The cerebrum is the large, outer part of the brain. It has 2 hemispheres (halves) and controls reasoning, thought, emotion, and language. It is also responsible for planned (voluntary) muscle movements (throwing a ball, walking, chewing, etc.) and for taking in and interpreting sensory information such as vision, hearing, smell, touch, and pain.
The symptoms caused by a tumor in a cerebral hemisphere depend on where the tumor is. Common symptoms include:
- Seizures
- Trouble speaking
- A change of mood such as depression
- A change in personality
- Weakness or paralysis in part of the body
- Changes in vision, hearing, or other senses
Basal ganglia: The basal ganglia are structures deeper within the brain that help control our muscle movements. Tumors or other problems in this part of the brain typically cause weakness, but in rare cases can cause tremor or other involuntary movements.
Cerebellum: The cerebellum lies under the cerebrum at the back part of the brain. It helps coordinate movement. Tumors of the cerebellum can cause problems with coordination in walking, trouble with precise movements of hands, arms, feet, and legs, problems swallowing or synchronizing eye movements, and changes in speech rhythm.
Brain stem: The brain stem is the lower part of the brain that connects to the spinal cord. It contains bundles of very long nerve fibers that carry signals controlling muscles and sensation or feeling between the cerebrum and the rest the body. Special centers in the brain stem also help control breathing and the beating of the heart. Also, most cranial nerves (which carry signals directly between the brain and the face, eyes, tongue, mouth, and some other areas) start in the brain stem.
Tumors in this critical area of the brain can cause weakness, stiff muscles, or problems with sensation, facial or eye movement, hearing, or swallowing. Double vision is a common early symptom of brain stem tumors, as are problems with coordination in walking. Because the brain stem is a small area that is so essential for life, it might not be possible to surgically remove tumors in this area.
Spinal cord: The spinal cord has bundles of very long nerve fibers that carry signals that control muscles, sensation or feeling, and bladder and bowel control.
Spinal cord tumors can cause weakness, paralysis, or numbness. The spinal cord is a narrow structure, so tumors within it usually cause symptoms on both sides of the body (for example, weakness or numbness of both legs). This is different from most brain tumors, which often affect only one side of the body.
The nerves that reach the arms begin in the spinal cord at the level of the neck (cervical spine). Nerves that branch off the spinal cord to the legs, bowel, and bladder arise in the back (thoracic and lumbar spine). Most tumors of the spinal cord start in the neck (cervical spine) and can cause symptoms in the arms and legs, as well as affect bowel and bladder function. Spinal cord tumors below the neck only affect the legs and bowel and bladder function.
Cranial nerves: The cranial nerves extend directly out of the base of the brain (as opposed to coming out of the spinal cord). Tumors starting in cranial nerves can cause vision problems, trouble swallowing, hearing loss in one or both ears, or facial paralysis, numbness, or pain.
Types of cells and body tissues in the brain and spinal cord
The brain and spinal cord have many kinds of tissues and cells, which can develop into different types of tumors.
Neurons (nerve cells): These are the most important cells in the brain. They transmit chemical and electric signals that determine thought, memory, emotion, speech, muscle movement, sensation, and just about everything else that the brain and spinal cord do. Neurons send these signals through their nerve fibers (axons). Axons in the brain tend to be short, while those in the spinal cord can be as long as several feet.
Unlike many other types of cells that can grow and divide to repair damage from injury or disease, neurons in the brain and spinal cord largely stop dividing about a year after birth (with a few exceptions). Neurons do not usually form tumors, but they are often damaged by tumors that start nearby.
Glial cells: Glial cells are the supporting cells of the brain. Most brain and spinal cord tumors develop from glial cells. These tumors are sometimes referred to as gliomas.
There are 3 types of glial cells – astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymal cells. A fourth cell type called microglia is part of the immune system and is not truly a glial cell.
- Astrocytes help support and nourish neurons. When the brain is injured, astrocytes form scar tissue that helps repair the damage. The main tumors starting in these cells are called astrocytomas or glioblastomas.
- Oligodendrocytes make myelin, a fatty substance that surrounds and insulates the nerve cell axons of the brain and spinal cord. This helps neurons send electric signals through the axons. Tumors starting in these cells are called oligodendrogliomas.
- Ependymal cells line the ventricles (fluid-filled areas) within the central part of the brain and form part of the pathway through which CSF flows. Tumors starting in these cells are called ependymomas.
- Microglia are the immune (infection fighting) cells of the central nervous system.
Neuroectodermal cells: These are very early forms of nervous system cells that are probably involved in brain cell development. They are found throughout the brain, although they are not often seen in the adult central nervous system. The most common tumors that come from these cells develop in the cerebellum and are called medulloblastomas.
Meninges: These are layers of tissue that line and protect the brain and spinal cord. CSF travels through spaces formed by the meninges. The most common tumors that start in these tissues are called meningiomas.
Choroid plexus: The choroid plexus is the area of the brain within the ventricles that makes CSF, which nourishes and protects the brain.
Pituitary gland and hypothalamus: The pituitary is a small gland at the base of the brain. It is connected to a part of the brain called the hypothalamus. Both make hormones that help regulate the activity of several other glands in the body. For example, they control the amount of thyroid hormone made by the thyroid gland, the production and release of milk by the breasts, and the amount of male or female hormones made by the testicles or ovaries. They also make growth hormone, which stimulates body growth, and vasopressin, which regulates water balance by the kidneys.
The growth of tumors in or near the pituitary or hypothalamus, as well as surgery and/or radiation therapy in this area, can affect these functions. For example, tumors starting in the pituitary gland sometimes make too much of a certain hormone, which can cause problems. On the other hand, a person may have low levels of one or more hormones after treatment and may need to take hormones to make up for this.
Pineal gland: The pineal gland is not really part of the brain. It is, in fact, a small endocrine gland that sits between the cerebral hemispheres. It makes melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, in response to changes in light. The most common tumors of the pineal gland are called pineoblastomas.

It makes melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, in response to changes in light. The most common tumors of the pineal gland are called pineoblastomas.
Blood-brain barrier: The inner lining of the small blood vessels (capillaries) in the brain and spinal cord creates a very selective barrier between the blood and the tissues of the central nervous system. This barrier normally helps maintain the brain's metabolic balance and keeps harmful toxins from getting into the brain. Unfortunately, it also keeps out most chemotherapy drugs that are used to kill cancer cells, which in some cases limits their usefulness.

A/FX and Pro Stock Legend Ronnie Sox Passes At 67
Ronnie Sox, the quiet, blonde-haired, southern gentleman known for his mystical mastery of power-shifting a manual four-speed transmission passed away Saturday, April 22, 2006, at his home near Richmond, Virginia. Ronnie succumbed following a lengthy battle with prostate cancer. His beloved wife Diane, family, and friends were nearby when the legendary driver took his last ride.
During his long and storied drag racing career, the Burlington, North Carolina, native garnered practically every honor and championship available for the full-bodied drag race cars he loved. His wins included NHRA and IHRA World Championships, and he was nominated as AHRA Driver of the Year in 1968. In 2002, Ronnie was an inaugural inductee into the East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame, just one of the many honors bestowed upon him during his five-decades-long racing career. in 2001, he was named Number 15 in the Top 50 Drivers poll announced by NHRA .
In 1971, Ronnie, along with other invitees Richard Petty and Bobby Unser, were honored guests at the White House, meeting President Richard Nixon. With help from a co-author, Ronnie penned a book titled: The Sox & Martin Book of Drag Racing, which was published in 1974.
Ronnie began his drag racing career as a teenager, sneaking into the local drags and racing his dad's '49 Oldsmobile Rocket 88. Seeking more speed, he soon switched to a Y-Block 312-powered '57 Ford. At the time, his family owned the Sox Sinclair Service, a combination Sinclair gas station and repair shop. the family business developed into a high-performance tuning and speed shop operation where young Ronnie gained both knowledge and customers for his rapidly expanding skills. It was out of that service station that he began running Chevy 409-powered cars and gained a reputation as a skilled driver and power tuner. His '62 409 Chevy "Bubble Top" Bel-Air sedan was a feared competitor in the Optional/Super Stock classes in the Carolinas, or wherever he chose to run his four-speed 409 Chevy.
In 1963, Ronnie partnered with another local Burlington, North Carolina, drag racer, Buddy Martin. The two had previously been competitors, but teamed up to campaign an aluminum front-end, '63 Z-11 option, 427 Impala in the new A/Factory Experimental class. Thus was born the fabled Sox & Martin racing team. Ronnie's own drag racing career would include notable accomplishments during each of the next four decades.
When General Motors boycotted all forms of racing for its divisions, Sox and Martin reluctantly signed on with rival Mercury Division. The former Chevy racers were provided with one of the new '64 Comets equipped with a dual four-barrel, 427 FE Series V-8, with a fiberglass front end, a heavy-duty Top Loader four-speed transmission, and a heavy-duty 9-inch Ford rear axle. Their car was a Comet hardtop coupe, while Mercury teammate Don Nicholson chose the Comet station wagon for its better rear weight distribution. The difference between coupe and wagon was insignificant, and they found immediate success running A/Factory Experimental class in open competition and match races against all challengers in the southeast. They were mostly unknown by the California guys, but their Mercury Division sponsors ordered its North Carolina-based S&M race team to report to Pomona, California, to race at the NHRA Winternationals.
Uncharacteristically, Ronnie was late off the line and lost the A/FX class trophy to Bill Shrewsberry, who later gained fame as a driver of the Hurst Hemi Under Glass Barracuda and other exhibition wheelstanders. Stung by the loss, he righted the ship in that Sunday's Top Stock final eliminations, cleaning house and winning the posted cash ($500), as well as a new Dodge 426 Hemi engine. In those days before huge factory funding, it was usually difficult to make ends meet, so they promptly sold the Hemi engine to help pay for their trip back home to North Carolina.
It was the beginning of a very successful year for the Sox & Martin team and Mercury, and offered what seemed like an exciting proposal for the duo's '65 racing campaign. However, a contract dispute with Mercury found S&M abandoning their short-lived association with Mercury. instead, they signed with Chrysler's Plymouth Division after they were convinced the impressive 426 Hemi engines would be theirs. The team took delivery of their '65 Plymouth Belvedere 426 Hemi four-speed sedan and launched the Plymouth Division's second most successful racing team, just behind NASCAR's Richard Petty.
The familiar red, white, and blue Sox & Martin colors adorned the '65 legal Super Stocker, but the altered wheelbase '65 Plymouth A/FX was easily the most popular with fans. Sox & Martin ran this gutted, lightweight, steel-bodied, homebuilt Funny Car in AHRA open competition events and match races at both well-known and two-lane blacktop-style backwoods local drag strips. They easily racked up an impressive win record against the best match race rivals of the day. Burning through powdered rosin and then backing up to do several more similar burn-throughs for the crowd, the S&M team wowed the usually capacity crowds, running low 9-second runs at 140-plus mph. Those wide-open throttle, power-shifted runs were often performed with the front wheels off the pavement as the legend of Mr. Four Speed grew.
The AWB '65 led to an even wilder '66 Plymouth built on the all-new Barracuda platform. Sox & Martin gutted the car, added structural strength with a tube steel rollcage, added a lightweight fiberglass front clip, altered the wheelbase by shifting the body to the rear on the chassis, and dropped in one of Jake King's powerful 426 Hemi engines. The traditional S&M paint was complemented by eight 26-inch-long ram tubes atop a Hilborn fuel injector that made the crowd's eyes water with heavy doses of nitromethane and alcohol racing fuel. Big loads of nitro and stroker crank match race engines were known to create excessive shock loading on the drivetrain parts and reliability suffered. To remedy the new Funny Car's hunger for parts, S&M reluctantly added a modified Torqueflite transmission. Although Ronnie missed the four-speed, the auto transmission's softer launches all but eliminated the Hemi's hunger for parts.
In spite of a successful match racing season, the arrival of Mercury and Ford's new Logghe tube chassis, flip-top fiberglass Funny Cars, and their 427 SOHC V-8 engines placed the S&M Barracuda at a disadvantage. Ironically, it was old rival Don Nicholson that led the charge when Don's revolutionary new Funny Car won heavily in both 1966 and 1967. Sox & Martin continued to soldier on until 1967 when Chrysler's drag racing brass called a halt to the Funny Car program.
In 1967, Ronnie found himself back at the wheel of an 11-second, four-speed, full-bodied race car, which he adapted to with immediate success. Along with the more docile Super Stocks came the immensely popular Performance Clinics. Sox & Martin carried the banner for the Plymouth Division on the East Coast, while Dick Landy was their West Coast counterpart for Dodge Division. Staged at dealerships, the clinics lured new customers into Plymouth and Dodge dealers by teaching basic as well as advanced drag racing techniques. The clinics covered engines, tuning, chassis prep and tuning, and driving tips, all from the well-traveled, well-schooled clinic stars-Sox & Martin. New car dealers loved the clinics, and reportedly sold thousands of cars as a direct result. The clinics also enhanced awareness of drag racing and increased attendance at local tracks. It was a win-win situation all around when the S&M hauler ramp truck and second race car on an open trailer parked in front of a local Plymouth dealer's showroom. Sox and Martin were the epitome of professionalism for a race team. They dressed in matching uniforms and handled questions with articulate aplomb, capturing legions of fans for Chrysler vehicles and Mopar Performance parts.
Chrysler's two divisions liked the race results and sales they were generating with their drag racing programs. Bolstered by this success, they placed their engineering focus on creating vehicles, parts, and support that would dominate drag racing. When R&D and testing efforts were complete, Chrysler contracted Hurst Corporation to build a short production run of 426 Hemi-powered '68 Dodge Darts and Plymouth Barracuda coupes. Hurst set up a line in the Detroit suburb of Royal Oak and began assembling the all-time baddest production-built vehicles ever offered to the American public. The 426 Hemi Barracudas and Darts were instant legends, claiming loads of Super Stock class and Super Stock Eliminator wins at national and regional events, as well as local tracks.
These street missiles featured the heavy-duty Dana 60 rear axle for stick-shift cars or an 831/44 axle for automatics, a heavy-duty New Process four-speed gearbox or 727 Torqueflite automatic, a thoroughly engineered cross-ram intake manifold carrying a pair of Holley four-barrel carburetors, and a gigantic hoodscoop designed to intimidate the competition, as well as ram cold air to the sealed inlets of the carbs. Factory compression ratios for the Race Hemi 426 were quoted as 14.0:1, and the cylinder heads came with sizeable intake and exhaust ports more than capable of allowing the engines to be revved at 8,000-plus rpm. It was a skillful job of total overkill, and an example of the powerful strength of a vehicle company when it chooses to create a winning racing program.
The new '68 Sox & Martin Hemi Barracuda, capably shoed by Ronnie Sox, was an immediate 10-second winner that kept getting quicker and faster as the team moved its development forward. Now the flagship team for Chrysler's drag racing program, S&M raced, did clinics, and tested hard on their rare off days. It was an all-out, total-war effort intended to dominate in any theatre. S&M clinic appearances were often scheduled for the same weekend as a major event or one of the points meets staged across the country. the team often brought diverse cars, such as their Hemi-powered Road Runner, a 440 wedge B-block-powered GTX, and a Hemi-powered Plymouth Super Bird with the NASCAR-style rear wing. Regardless of body style, any car trimmed in the Sox & Martin colors flat hauled the mail.
Not only did these cars excel in NHRA Super Stock Eliminator, they were also fast in match race trim. This phenomenon grew out of the Chrysler, Ford, and GM drivers' dislike for handicap-style racing and disqualifying break outs for going too fast. They preferred heads-up starts and basic run-whatcha-brung rules. Curiously, most of this was a throwback to the early Funny Car days and the Match Race Mania so loved by tracks and fans.
The Hemi Barracudas and Darts were right at home in these heads-up events and match races. It was this popularity that brought both NHRA and AHRA to offer Pro Stock heads-up racing, beginning with both association's '70 winter meets. Bill Jenkins, always one of S&M's toughest competitors, had a head start on the field by running numerous heads-up events and match races with a two-four carbed, Tunnel-Rammed 427 Camaro running at lighter weight. He dominated the Pro Stock events in early 1970, taking AHRA and NHRA races and the NHRA Gatornationals in March. S&M quickly caught up and dominated the rest of the season. This run-the-table sweep included a team win by Herb McCandless in the Sox & Martin Plymouth Hemi Duster at the Nationals. S&M won every remaining NHRA Pro Stock event that year.
They opened the '71 season where they left off in 1970, winning all the way to midyear in 1971, when they lost at the NHRA Summernationals in Englishtown, New Jersey. The formidable S&M team wasn't outrun at that race, but fell to an untimely flat tire just as they were moving towards the starting line during eliminations.
Those Pro Stock successes were also captured with Ronnie giving his own clinic in shifting the Chrysler Red Stripe four-speed manual gearbox. Unfortunately, the '68 Barracuda he so cherished wasn't the focus of the '70 Pro Stock program. Instead, S&M began the Pro Stock wars with a brand-new, purpose-built '70 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda coupe and a Hemi Duster. This came about as a result of Chrysler understandably wanting to race what it was selling. That meant 'Cudas (Plymouth shortened the brand name to 'Cuda instead of Barracuda) and Dusters. No matter, S&M's domination of the bracket had all the brand-Xers howling for a rules' break. NHRA's solution meant added weight for any Hemi-powered Pro Stock race car. It seemed that whenever a Hemi car won in NHRA, the rules officials quickly added weight to the minimum for the Chrysler marques. Ultimately, this led to the NHRA's complex system of weight breaks for engines with different heads and bodies with different wheelbases. The 426 Hemi-powered cars were forced to give away more and more until they were finally no longer competitive running at the rules' mandates. By the mid-'70s, Chrysler had scaled back their drag racing programs to avoid the Pro Stock weight break dilemma and what all Chrysler racers and fans thought of as a vendetta against their beloved 426 Hemi engines.
Ronnie Sox and Buddy Martin eventually dissolved their long-standing partnership, but Ronnie continued to field a familiar red, white, and blue, Hemi-powered Pro Stocker. First, it was a Dodge Colt, and, later, a Plymouth Omni. He even drove Dean Thompson's Ford Mustang to an '81 IHRA Pro Stock championship with power provided by Jack Roush.
Sox and Martin briefly teamed up again in 1995, running an IHRA Ford Probe with an 815-inch, Jon Kaase-built, 429 shotgun-style Hemi engine. They planned to run IHRA's Mountain Motor Pro Stock category that year, but a nasty crash totaled the car and nearly cost Ronnie his life. After recuperating, he confined his efforts mainly to the '68 Barracuda SS/A and to driving long-time friend Bob Reed's Sox & Martin clone '68 Barracuda. Showing that he still had it, Ronnie clocked high-8-second, 152-plus-mph times with the four-speed car, thrilling crowds whenever he ran and bringing the fans and even other competitors running to the fences to watch and listen as "Sox hit the gears." It was with the manual four-speed transmission that he gained his reputation as a virtual "can't miss."
Ronnie turned out for last October's East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame weekend in Henderson, North Carolina. He reported that his treatments and battle against his cancer were going well, and he was optimistic as to the outcome. Sadly, Ronnie Sox passed from us forever on Saturday, April 22, 2006, but his legacy as a driver, racer, and likeable personality will endure forever.

A friend and I are seniors in high school and we have a band. I play alto saxophone and he plays drum set. We have played at basketball games, in school concerts, and background music at various school events. Our next (and possibly last) performance is going to be at our graduation, so obviously we want it to be our best performance yet. Our problem is we cannot seem to find a good song/songs to play. We are looking for something fast, upbeat, and fun. Somewhere between 3 to 15 minutes would be perfect. Some of the songs we have played before include: Shipping Up To Boston, Megalovania, Blue (Da Ba Dee), 300 Violin Orchestra, Harder Better Faster Stronger, Eye Of The Tiger, ect. Hopefully that gives you a good idea of the type of music we enjoy playing.
Any song suggestions would be very helpful. Also, if you have any other places I could post this question please let me know. Thanks in advance for any suggestions anyone gives.
What instruments do you play?
Hope y'all are having a great day!
Please check out my new piece for solo piano ( Rondo Comique):

Playing blackjack or spinning the roulette wheel are popular pastimes in Las Vegas, yet, the city has much more to offer than just gaming. From gazing at Mandalay Bay's Shark Reef to riding a Gondola at The Venetian to enjoying the meteoric fast Speed-The Ride roller coaster at the Sahara, there's a lot to do for families as well. For gamers, of course, Las Vegas has the greatest collection of casinos in the world.Realistically, there's no such thing as a sure bet. However, the closest thing to picking a winner is a holiday rental. Instead of a staid, sterile hotel room, a holiday rental gives you lots of space and amenities. Whether you opt for a large home with a swimming pool and hot tub, an exquisitely designed villa or a luxurious condominium dripping with amenities, the value of your selection beats a hotel room every time.
If you choose The Strip or Fremont Street in downtown, you'll have little trouble finding a slot machine or blackjack table. Beyond the casinos, there are numerous family-oriented attractions. Some of the most popular are the Fremont Street Experience, a spectacular light-and-sound show during the evening; the world famous Fountains of Bellagio, which are choreographed to whimsical musical selections and four of the world's highest thrill rides at Stratosphere.In recent years, Las Vegas has quietly evolved as a great golf destination with more 60 courses available to play. Some of the more unique offerings include Royal Links, a replica course featuring famous holes from the British Open rotation and Bali Hai Golf Club, where a Polynesian-style clubhouse, 3,200 palm trees and exotic water features make it a memorable golf outing.
If you bring your family to Las Vegas, no doubt, you'll want a roomy place to spread out rather than a cramped hotel room. When you return from a family outing like boating on Lake Mead, river rafting in the Colorado River or hiking in the Red Rocks National Conservation area, wouldn't it be nice to know you have a great place where you can relax and kick-back. Typical holiday rentals give families more closet space for storage, large dining and living areas and fully equipped kitchens. Imagine preparing money-saving meals like pasta with your own original sauce or some juicy cheeseburgers in a kitchen with all the utensils and appliances you'll need.
We have deals on all types of properties and discounts are even available on luxury properties. You'll be impressed with our long list of properties in every price range.

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Six athletes recorded personal-bests at the UMBC track and field team competed at the first day of the New Balance Collegiate Invitational, Friday at the Armory.
For the men, sprinter Dennison Long (Greenbelt, Md./Eleanor Roosevelt/FIU) broke his personal-best twice in the 200m dash. In the preliminary round, Long passed his previous best with a time of 21.73 while finishing fourth. Then in the finals, the senior lowered his mark further to 21.59 to finish second in the event and move up to fourth all-time in UMBC history.
Also moving up in the school rankings, sophomore Thor Serafenas (Olney, Md./Good Counsel/Clemson) recorded a personal-best toss of 15.34m (50'4.00") in the shot put. While he finished 27th in the event, his distance shoots him up to third all-time on the school list. Junior Yao Adantor (Laurel, Md./Reservoir/Morgan State/Maryland) finished just ahead of his teammate with a heave of 15.38m (50'5.50").
Although he did not set a personal-record, senior Trae Proctor (Brandywine, Md./Thomas Stone) once again completed the 60m hurdles in under eight seconds with a time of 7.99. Proctor is the only Retriever to ever go under the eight-second mark in school history.
On the women's side, multiple athletes put in record-setting performances for the Retrievers.
Sophomore standout Mercedes Jackson (Huntingtown, Md./Huntingtown) reached the finals of the 60m finals and matched her school record time of 7.34 while placing fifth in the event.
UMBC received top performances in the longer sprint events as well, as sophomore Paulette Fogle (Washington, D.C./Bishop McNamara) and junior Kirsten Jones (Brentwood, Tenn./M.L.K. Magnet) both surpassed career marks. Fogle completed the 500m dash in a time of 56.38, the third-fastest time in UMBC history, to place second. Jones, meanwhile, finished tenth in the 400m dash, but ran the event in 56.36, the second-fastest time in school history.
Sophomore Mary Katherine Kulp (Vestal, N.Y./Vestal) led the distance crew by posting a personal-record in the 1,000m run. Kulp completed the event in a time of 3:01.10 to move up to third all-time for the Retrievers.
In the throws, junior Emma Mayne (Mt. Airy, Md./Linganore) jumped up to eight all-time by registering a toss of 12.26m (40'2.75") in the shot put. Senior Amanda Deller (Aberdeen, Md./Aberdeen) finished 16th in the competition with a throw of 14.47m (47'5.75").
UMBC continues the competition on Saturday with the second day of the New Balance Collegiate Invitational. The Retriever then travel to Boston, Mass. on Feb. 11 for the America East Championships.

Of all the bills the governor acted on in this latest batch, the abortion measure provoked the loudest debate in the legislature. It expands the range of medical professionals who can provide first-trimester abortions to include nurse practitioners, physicians' assistants, and certified nurse midwives. Brown has also signed a bill extending a program that provides insurance coverage for autism from the middle of next year through the end of 2016.
The governor vetoed a measure that would have provided "full scope" first and second trimester health care coverage for pregnant women who earn between 60 and 100 percent of the federal poverty level. Brown said he supports the policy, but he can't support the bill because it was left out of the Medi-Cal expansion negotiated earlier this year.

Accrington moved into fifth place with a comfortable 3-0 victory over struggling Bradford.
James Hanson had a first-minute chance for the Bantams but he fired over the crossbar and, after that, it was all Stanley.
The promotion-chasing Reds opened the scoring in the ninth minute thanks to a wonder goal from midfielder Luke Joyce. He controlled the ball on the edge of the area, got the better of defender Jon Worthington and curled his effort into the top corner of the net for his first goal in over a year.
Andy Procter doubled the advantage on 16 minutes when Terry Gornell passed to the captain on the edge of the box, and he unleashed a fierce shot to beat keeper Lenny Pidgeley.
Stanley came close to a third when Sean McConville set up the in-rushing Ian Craney on the edge of the area but he fired inches wide.
The third goal came on the stroke of half-time when a Jimmy Ryan throw was flicked on at the near post by the Bantams defence, and it was an easy finish for McConville to tap in at the far post for his 13th league goal of the season.
Bradford upped the pace after the break but never really troubled Reds keeper Alex Cisak with the most bizarre moment of the match. Stanley's Dean Winnard and Jimmy Ryan squared up to each other in an argument over defending and had to be separated by their team-mates.
McConville, Craig Lindfield and Joe Jacobson could all have added to the Reds tally but couldn't find the target.
Stanley face Shrewsbury on Monday and victory at the New Meadow will mean the Reds will challenge for automatic promotion while Bradford are left battling against the drop.

The species of fish we encounter in this region, especially along the coast, are wide-ranging.
The species of fish we encounter in this region, especially along the coast, are wide-ranging. There are the occasional long-distance visitors to local areas, or migratory species that are seldom seen because they are nocturnal, very small, well-camouflaged, hard to catch, or simply behave in a very secretive, discreet manner.
Bulletin reader Jacob Frechette, of Bozrah, prompted this column. He sent The Bulletin some photographs of a sea lamprey he caught in the Thames River. Lampreys are a native species that often swim our rivers unnoticed.
While in college, I was doing a snorkel diving survey of the Salmon River during the lampreys' annual spring spawning run. They were backed by the dozens in the waters below the site of the old Leesville Dam, and averaged nearly a yard long with a large sucker mouth they used to hold on to rocks while swimming against the current.
Occasionally, one would attach to a hand or leg — an unnerving experience, to say the least, though the encounter was so brief as they didn't have time to sink in the ring of hooks around their mouth as an anchor. It was simply a few seconds of light suction, such as a kiss from a lonely aunt. Then it was over.
Where lampreys are a native species, some of the odd catches made by freshwater anglers in this area are the result of illegal releases by fans of that species. For example, largemouth bass and bluegill sunfish, which are found in nearly every Connecticut lake and pond, are not native to the waters of the northeast. Both species were introduced during the 1800s, and then spread around by state agencies, fishermen and nature during heavy rains and floods.
A couple of summers ago, an angler caught a peacock bass in Webster Lake in Massachusetts. Peacock bass are a South American fish, transplanted to Florida, that someone evidently either bought from a pet shop or caught as a fingerling, grew it to a couple pounds in an aquarium or small pond, and then set it free when it outgrew its tank.
In New England, smallmouth bass and pumpkinseeds are the original native species of sunfish in lakes, while redbreast sunfish tend to be found in streams and rivers. A fourth, very rare species — banded sunfish — supposedly are found only in a few southeastern Connecticut lakes. These small native sunfish that grow to three inches simply were outcompeted by bluegills and fed on by largemouth bass, as these more abundant species were spread throughout the region.
In the ocean, the chances of encountering oddball species are far greater. When I was a child, I saw a silver-colored fish being tossed about in the surf at Osprey Beach near the mouth of the Thames River. My dad's friend caught it in his hands and tossed it up into the sand. That fish turned out to be a small bonefish, a species native to the extensive shallow flats of Florida and the Gulf of Mexico.
Over the years, on at least four or five documented occasions, anglers have caught or observed tarpon between here (specifically the Millstone Point warm water discharge) and Cape Cod. A couple long hot summers ago, a cobia, another southern species, was caught near Sugar Reef.
A number of years ago, when "Captain Don's" bait and tackle first opened on Route 1 in Westerly, the jovial captain was laughing when he answered the phone and said, "I have got a funny story for you this week."
Earlier that day, three guys came into the shop with something "fishy" in a burlap bag for him to identify. Don had been a commercial captain for many years, both in New England and Alaska, so he had a wealth of knowledge that benefited both his customers and our readers.
Two of the guys were laughing like crazy; the third was stonefaced.
They had been fluke fishing off Misquamicut Beach when one of them caught this odd-looking fish that was about three feet long. It was gray and shaped like a skate, but with a fish-like tail rather than the spike-shaped tail of a skate.
The straight-faced angler had stepped on the fish barefooted to steady it while he dehooked his catch, and was just about knocked out of the boat by a tremendous electrical shock he received.
Turns out he had caught an "Atlantic torpedo," a fish that is dorsoventrally flattened like a fluke and hunts like an electric eel by stunning its prey with an electrical shock that's been measured at 50 volts. Those facts are from "The Fishes of the Gulf of Maine," by Bigelow and Schroeder, recently updated by Bruce Collette and Grace Klein-MacPhee.
A week later, I hooked one of these "oddball" fish, so luckily I was aware of the potentially dangerous shock it could produce. The torpedo on the end of my line that day was more than three feet long and weighed at least 25 to 30 pounds.
The catch was one of those huge disappointments every angler endures, because initially it felt and fought like a gigantic fluke that morphed into this weird-looking critter once it was pulled to the surface and positively identified.
Luckily, this potentially dangerous fish was barely hooked in the tip of its snout, so it could be freed with little damage. Being careful not to touch the electrified fish, it was lifted to the surface by the line in one hand, so the hook could be sliced free with the other.
I did not receive the electrical jolt I was trying to avoid. However, I could definitely feel a fraction of the burn from current that was being conducted through the metal blade, to my fingertip, as that fish was cut free. The electrical charge was uncomfortable, but bearable, long enough to free the torpedo with minimal damage to both fish and fisherman.
Over about half a century on the water, I've caught or seen proof of many other rare and not-so-rare species, especially during long, hot summers. A few examples include boxfish, a tiny little thing about the size of a sugar cube with eyes and fins; bigeye, a beautiful bright orange fish about two inches long with huge black eyes; filefish; sea ravens; huge ocean sunfish weighing hundreds of pounds; and even a pair of foot-long blue and yellow queen angel fish that swam circles in an ebbing tide, under the bridge at the head Stonington Harbor. They were circling together as if in some sort of rehearsed ballet as they were carried out into the Sound by the current.
In the ocean, possibilities are limitless, so contact with new species is not that uncommon. Enjoy those encounters, but be careful when handling or dehooking unfamiliar species. They may have sharp teeth, spines or even something more shocking.

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 2:27 AM GMT on August 29, 2012
Hurricane Isaac is ashore over Southeast Louisiana, having officially crossed the coast on the Mississippi Delta 90 miles southeast of New Orleans at 7:45 am EDT on August 28. Isaac intensified right up until landfall, striking with 80 mph winds and a central pressure of 970 mb. The storm's large size and large 50 - 60 mile diameter eye kept the intensification rate slow today, but it came quite close to becoming a significantly more dangerous storm. That's because at landfall, Isaac was in the midst of establishing a small inner eyewall within its large 50-mile diameter eye, a very rare feat I've never seen before. Usually, when an eye first forms, it gradually contracts, eventually becoming so small that it becomes unstable. An outer concentric eyewall then forms around the small inner eyewall, eventually becoming the only eyewall when the inner eyewall collapses. But Isaac is a very unusual storm that has continually surprised us, and this inside-out concentric eyewall formation fits the storm's unusual character. The storm isn't in a hurry to move fully inland, and has slowed down to a crawl this evening. This will give the storm the opportunity to keep its center mostly over water a few more hours, and maintain hurricane strength into the early morning on Wednesday.
Figure 1. Radar reflectivity image from New Orleans as Isaac made landfall at 6 pm CDT August 28, 2012.
A dangerous storm surge event underway
Isaac is bringing large and dangerous storm surge to the coast from Central Louisiana to the Panhandle of Florida. At 10 pm EDT, here were some of the storm surge values being recorded at NOAA tide gauges:
6.2' Waveland, MS
9.9' Shell Beach, LA
3.0' Pensacola, FL
4.4' Pascagoula, MS
3.4' Mobile, AL
The 9.9' storm surge at Shell Beach, which is in Lake Borgne 20 miles southeast of New Orleans, exceeds the 9.5' surge recorded there during Category 2 Hurricane Gustav of 2008. Research scientists running a Doppler on Wheels radar located on top of the 16' levees in Plaquemines Parish near Port Sulphur, LA, reported at 8:30 pm EDT that a storm surge of 14' moved up the Mississippi River, and was just 2' below the levees. Waves on top of the surge were cresting over the west side of the levee. Needless to say, they were very nervous. Over the past hour, the surge has retreated some, and waves were no longer lapping over the top of the levee. This is probably due to the fact that we're headed towards low tide. A storm surge of 9.5' has moved up the Mississippi River to the Carrrollton gauge in New Orleans. This is not a concern for the levees in New Orleans, since the storm surge has now brought the river up to 2.5' above its normal water level, which was 7' low due to the 2012 U.S. drought. The highest rise of the water above ground level will occur Wednesday morning over much of Southeast Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and the western Florida Panhandle, when the tide comes back in. It is clear now that this storm surge event will be as dangerous as that of Category 2 Hurricane Gustav of 2008. One piece of good news: NWS New Orleans successfully launched their 00Z balloon. However, their discussion noted the atmosphere is "saturated or nearly saturated" all the way up to 470mb, or 20,000 feet. Precipitable water was 2.76 inches, which will be ripe for extremely heavy rainfall.
Figure 2. Tide gauge data from Shell Beach, located on the south shore of Lake Borgne, just east of New Orleans. The green line shows the storm surge. The red line is the storm tide, the height of the water above Mean Sea Level (MSL.)
Portlight disaster relief charity responds to Issac
The Portlight.org disaster relief charity, founded and staffed by members of the wunderground community, have mobilized resources in advance of the arrival of Hurricane Isaac. Their crew, including 2 EMTs, is at the Biloxi Special Needs Shelter, and will be caring for shelter dwellers and doing rescues of people who call for help. Another team will be surveying all the shelters in the area to ensure that they are accessible to all people. You can donate to Portlight's disaster relief fund here.
I'll have more in the morning. Hunker down, New Orleans. It's going to be a long night.

Let me start off by saying that I would like nothing more than to be able to support a Liberty candidate and vote for him this November. I have tried so hard, many times to get myself in the mood for Gary Johnson. Each time I was kidding myself.
You should know that you are free to comment and argue with me, but the purpose of this post is not necessarily to convince people not to vote for Gary Johnson, but just to further explain why I am not going to do so. This may seem unnecessary, but seeing as how this blog had hitherto been given the expressed purpose of supporting Ron Paul, in its own limited way, and that I will be ramping up the volume and frequency of posts, I feel obliged to explain why none of these posts will be featuring support for Johnson's candidacy, and will instead be more issue-oriented (with the occasional hit piece on Obama or Romney).
So. What exactly is my problem with Gary Johnson? I'll tell you. It's not that he's not a nice guy. It's not that I doubt his sincerity. It's not that I would prefer Obama or Romney. And it's not just the very few (or perhaps there are more than I initially anticipated) things that he and I disagree on. But it is, in part, the things he, at times, seems focus on. I can't listen to the guy without him blah-blah-blahing about gay marriage, taxing marijuana, flip-flopping on everything from heroin to NAFTA, and plenty of other meaningless distractions, all the while that they are mostly distractions he is still going in the wrong direction or not near forcefully enough in the right direction. Sure, he brings up the wars, the Pentagon budget, says he wants to bring the troops home, audit the fed, things like that. And the strange thing is I don't necessarily disbelieve him. I just think that these things, the real issues, the real issues, the real issues, would be put on the back burner, or more so than they should be. It's the economy stupid! And as long as you are going to talk about and do things that have virtually nothing to do with the economy, the very least you could do, if you want my support, or my vote, is talk about and do these things in a way I can agree with.
I have said that I would vote for Gary Johnson if he would address some of my concerns satisfactorily. When I originally listed them, I was mainly waxing rhetorical. In my mind, I was (and still am) certain that Gary would answer almost none of them to my satisfaction, which is why those particulars (re-listed below) were ever sticks in my craw in the first place.
What is it about Gary that makes me lose hope of he and I ever seeing eye to eye on these things?
I have seen and heard enough interviews where these things were touched on. None of the interviewers were anywhere near as precise on these issues as I was with my list. Nor would one think there should be a need for them to be so. You see, libertarians make a name for themselves being very rational and analytical about things. So when some radio host or some high mucky-muck in the freedom movement/free market blogosphere asks Gary Johnson, straight up: Do you support humanitarian interventionism? (just one example!), and he opens his mouth and fumbles but you think he's eventually going to say something rooted in some clause of the Constitution or some fundamental libertarian axiom, and then he basically says "yes," without hardly a qualification (and then one usually appealing to emotion), and changes the subject to his stance on the current wars, which are winding down and unpopular anyways, and therefore happens to be the same stance as 70% of the American public, who, and I hate to sound like an elitist, are some of the most vacuous and bloodthirsty people on the planet, I am forced to choose between two options in terms of what I can think of him: He is either weak willed (worse yet, a coward) or he is a complete ignoramus. And let me tell you, I am not sure which one scares me more: Is he afraid of alienating the average Libertarian Party member who is a bleeding-heart socially liberal utilitarian minarchist (nothing necessarily wrong with any ONE of those things, or even a mixture of two or three, but I am not the biggest fan of the overall combination), or does he really know less about basic libertarianism, noninterventionism, and economics than some kids I know who aren't even old enough to vote?
There have been times when I listen to him speak and after a while I am just cringing in dreadful anticipation of what answer he is going to give next. Don't get me wrong, the man is a great orator when he gets a softball interview, which is just about all of them these last two months because his handlers won't let him talk about the real details of the real issues with real people anymore. They already milked that cow and she's bone dry.
Or maybe I shouldn't blame it all on his handlers, maybe I should blame it on the fact that because Ron Paul is out of the picture and this is an exciting election, the media, even its libertarian wing, has chosen to fawn rather than vet.
Anyways, lets delve into those particulars again:
1. Does his pro-choice stance mean he would uphold the Tenth Amendment or ignore it and further erode it?
Gary has stated that he thinks each state should decide. This is a stance I can live with and may even be the best of all possible political alternatives. Except…
Johnson is really in no position to alienate the pro-life vote, so it would stand to reason that he would bring up the states' rights argument, that he says he adheres to in this case, just a tad more often. Unfortunately for him, he usually just says that he PERSONALLY BELIEVES in a woman's "right" to choose up until the fetus is "viable." He needs 15% polling nationwide to get in the debates with Obama and Romney, something I would have hoped for even if I was not going to vote for him, just to get some of his alternative views in the public square (his opposition, though at times mild, to things like the Federal Reserve, suspension of habeas corpus, the income tax, ObamaCare, executive orders, undeclared wars, budget deficits, entitlements, welfare, eminent domain, the UN, bailouts, gun control, etc.). I suspect after alienating a good portion of his potential base, the Ron Paul supporters, he will not get into the debates, let alone win the presidency. We basically have three pro-choice guys running. One is Planned Parenthood's bosom buddy. Another has ties to abortion mill disposal companies and has had every conceivable stance on the issue (except this one). And the other, while opposing public funding of abortions, and possibly in favor of states' rights on the issue (thereby appointing judges who might overturn Roe v. Wade), still would not make life a priority in any way, shape, or form because a) he personally is pro-choice and b) he is against states' rights on the marriage question and who knows what else.
Here is one article I read that says it is okay to vote for a personally pro-choice candidate because the president, not even through the courts, has absolutely no effect on policies regarding abortion: Abortion, Religion, and the Presidency by Laurence M. Vance. Mr. Vance is essentially arguing that you can vote for the lesser of two evils if the evil in question has no policy consequence. I would buy that argument if I knew for certain that that same candidate would reduce abortions through some indirect mechanism (states' rights), if given the opportunity to do so, even if he is unwilling or unable to use more direct mechanisms (executive order, signing a law banning abortion, advocating an amendment banning abortion, or appointing judges who would overturn Roe v. Wade).
There are three ways to implement a states' rights solution to abortion. One is to overturn Roe v. Wade by appointing pro-life or pro-states' rights justices. Another is to pass a law taking jurisdiction over abortion away from the courts, thus invalidating Roe v. Wade and any other federal court's decision in the past or future that overturn state laws against abortion. Both of these ways are direct. The third way is simply by refusing to prosecute or punish the states that choose to ban abortion, even if Roe v. Wade is technically still in effect. The President can direct his Attorney General, Justice Department, and other relevant officers to not go after states that nullify federal law or court decisions. Johnson has not clearly stated that would do any of these things. And until he does, no pro-lifer should even consider him. I hope he clarifies whether he would do these things or not. There are so many issues that he has made unclear or conflicting statements on.
2. Does "humanitarian intervention" mean things such as Letters of Marque and Reprisal and Spanish Civil War-type volunteerism (which is illegal these days) or does it mean more undeclared or unjust wars, unilateral or otherwise?
He still has never gone into detail on this, besides, just recently, specifically as it pertains to Kony. I mean, are we just supposed to make the assumption that he's alright just because of the L that comes after his name? I thought that sort of thinking was what gave us the two-party duopoly! My gut instinct is that Gary really would send in taxpayer-funded US troops. He would probably go to Congress and get a Declaration of War first, and would probably define the mission, engage the enemy, win, and then pull out. Probably. This would therefore be a "legal" war, but by no means a "just" war. Ron Paul (yes, I know, he is not running anymore, but that has nothing to do with the point I am making) on the other hand would only go to Congress if we were attacked first, and then presumably in an even handed way. And if Congress on its own, with no prompting from the Commander-in-Chief, was to unjustly, but legally Declare War, Ron Paul as Commander-in-Chief would probably weigh the two following options: Resign or carry it out as quickly and painlessly as possible. Gary, so far as I can tell would weigh these two options: Carry it out because there is a humanitarian reason to do so or don't carry it out because there is no humanitarian reason to do so. And need I remind you that George W. Bush campaigned on a humble foreign policy and gave us two quagmires and a world ready to explode. How much more should we be wary of someone who has stated they would go gallivanting across the globe in search of monsters to destroy (or am I wrong in thinking that is the corollary of using trained killers in a humanitarian fashion)? All other things being equal of course.
Gary Johnson did say, and I think this is only a recent thing as a result of pressure put on him by the Ron Paul vote, that he "think[s] Kony could have been more effectively dealt with by letters of marque and reprisal." And while I could go on about why Letters of Marque and Reprisal are preferable to sending in the troops, the reality is that volunteers acting on their own, expecting no aid from the US government, whether their mission succeeds or fails, would be even better, especially in a situation that has nothing to do with US national security. Letters of Marque and Reprisal would have been the perfect thing to go after Osama bin Laden with, but in the case of Kony, this would be no different than the president having private mercenaries doing his bidding, taking out whomever he deems unfit to continue living. That kind of power in the hands of Johnson would probably not be of too much concern, but to establish that precedent would be unwise, especially in light of the fact that assassinating United States citizens, no charges, no trial, is the accepted prerogative of the executive office these days.
3. When he says, "end the war on drugs," does he mean, "decriminalize all substances" on the federal level and let the states and individuals decide for themselves, or simply, "legalize marijuana, which we can then tax and regulate like we do alcohol and tobacco," well?
He means the second one, which I am fundamentally in disagreement with. I don't think the Federal government should even be regulating alcohol and tobacco.
4. Is his love for liberty rooted, at least partially, in a hatred for injustice and tyranny, or is it more from a utilitarian, the-greatest-benefit-to-the-greatest-number philosophy?
I already know the answer to this. And as with most other questions, it is the second answer.
5. Should the federal government only prosecute and punish crimes actually listed in the Constitution, or just about any crime that may be a real or perceived problem?
You know, counterfeiting, piracy on the high seas, treason, and international crimes? Gary has never even touched on this issue, one way or the other, to my knowledge. This is a much bigger deal than most people give credit for, and though it is related to the drug issue, is a lot broader than that.
6. Will states be allowed to ignore laws they deem unjust or should the federal government take measures to prevent this, whether through the courts, the legislature, or the executive branch?
Gary has spoken about nullification, but this seems inconsistent with his view of marriage. He wants a nation-wide law providing for one, all-inclusive definition of marriage, all the while maintaining separation of church and state, but why bother with such laws (which, like provisions of the Civil Rights Act, are in clear violation of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, as well as the Fourteenth, which is often misinterpreted in the same way that the Thirteenth is to give the children of illegal immigrants automatic citizenship, that is to superficially uphold the letter of the text through modern interpretation while completely ignoring the spirit of the text through original intent) on the one hand, when you support nullification on the other? It makes no sense!
7. Is getting rid of the income tax and replacing it with the Fair Tax part of a broader plan to eliminate all taxes unnecessary to the legitimate constitutional functions of government, or is it an end in itself?
I'm serious. Taxation is theft. Period. But I have further questions: Does getting rid of the income tax mean abolishing just the IRS and the tax code, or does it include abolishing the Sixteenth Amendment? This question has not even been asked, let alone answered. Given that fact, I would say it is because Gary does not want to waste time on politically inexpedient policy issues that bear no immediate fruit when all he has to do is say something popular. When most people hear abolish the income tax, they just assume you mean permanently. And perhaps in your heart of hearts you do, but that doesn't cut it. Johnson has basically said (and here is the link) that he would push for the Fair Tax whether the 16th Amendment was gotten rid of or not, which to me is plain stupid. If you are not for completely abolishing one tyranny before you "replace" it with another, how can you guarantee that further down the road there won't be both at once? You can't. Especially not as the Government's need for revenue increases, exponentially no less, with each passing year, thanks to our national debt and unfunded liabilities and the high interest rates that are inevitable in the future. In my book, bad things should not be replaced with slightly less worse things. Once you have gotten rid of the bad thing, that should be the end of it. If that is an impossibility, it should still be the stated goal. Why compromise before you are even asked to? As H.L. Richardson wrote in Confrontational Politics, "When the liberals step dialectically backward, the conservative attack must be intensified, not diminished." This means don't stop pushing just because you have gained some ground. It applies equally to all corners of the political compass, not just "liberals" and "conservatives."
And those are my concerns and observations, and they are subject to revision. In any case, I do not think Gary Johnson will win, so as I have said before, the only reasons for someone who otherwise is not enthused to vote for him, are, to help him get matching funds, which in my opinion is not a worthy goal unless you plan on handing them back directly to the Treasury or better yet the taxpayer; or to send a message. Sending a message is a great idea. Unless of course, it is the wrong message. And what message would I be sending by voting for Gary Johnson?
I would be sending a message to the Libertarian Party that they can go ahead and keep sending in watered down libertarians and I will loyally support them because I don't mind watered down libertarians and enjoy sending messages that are about how much I like sending messages rather than actually getting a real point across.
I would be sending the Republican Party a message that says I would vote for whoever they nominate as long as he has more in common with Gary Johnson than he does Barack Obama, which, though that hypothetical person would absolutely be better than Romney or Obama, is absolutely not true and therefore not a message I want to send.
I would be sending the Democratic Party a message that says I would vote for whoever they nominate as long as he has more in common with Gary Johnson than he does Mitt Romney, which, though that hypothetical person would absolutely be better than Obama or Romney, is absolutely not true and therefore not a message I want to send.
I am neither willing nor able to send any of these messages, all of which would emanate from a vote for Gary Johnson. This obviously does not apply to those who would be voting for Johnson for other reasons (like agreeing with his positions) or who think that sending messages that they may not entirely agree with is their civic duty or a dire necessity.
And what weight does winning (whether you define that as winning the election, changing the game, or simply as sending a message) have against violating one's conscience? If I were slightly more of a compromiser, and if I thought Gary Johnson could win, something I did briefly think was possible, perhaps that would be heavy enough of a thing, for me to consider going against my conscience and making that expedient choice. But so long as there is no likely reward (a win), why would I, hypothetically more of a compromiser, even bother sticking my neck out? It would be pointless.
That is only a hypothetical; I like to think that I would not compromise like that, even with a chance at success. So if I find out on November 7th that Gary Johnson could have been a game changer or even a winner had he just one more vote, I will still not regret the decision I made to write-in Ronald Ernest Paul, M.D.
