danwalsh needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 68 designs submitted by 27 freelance designers.
We've moved on since we first created our logo for our Australian Social news site kwoff.com.au
we need to revisit our logo. we spent about five minutes putting it together when we began 6 months ago.
We always intended to have something 'minimalist' and low key, but its time we threw it out there for some freshening up.
- We would like to keep it simple and maintain at least some of the color black as the logo is well represented on a lot of news sites as a black K (you can see us in the share links on stories from news.com.au and crikey.com.au)
- we have used the .com.au in the current logo, i think it should stay, but am open to change.
- we have a dictionary definition that we have taken some poetic license on, it is:
1. To drink with relish; to drink copiously of; to swallow in large draughts.
2: To socially aggregate interesting news for Australians; online.
- you can see it represented at http://kwoff.com/faq-en.php where you will get an idea of what we mean by it
- As above we should keep some black so it bears resemblance to all the little 'k' s we have out there.
- there is also not a lot of real estate for it currently on the front page http://www.kwoff.com so it should fit somewhere in 446x77 pixels

SOFIA, Bulgaria - Top Bulgarian wrestler Valentin Yordanov has said he will return his Olympic gold medal to protest the IOC decision to drop wrestling from the Olympic program.
Yordanov, 53, announced his decision Wednesday to return his gold medal in his 52-kilogram freestyle category from the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
The seven-time world champion says the combined efforts of all national federations would help keep wrestling's deserved place in the Olympic Games.
Bulgarians have won 16 Olympic titles, making wrestling the most successful Olympic sport in the Balkan country.

TrainwreckTuesday, June 14th, 2011
I apoligize for my long absence. My personal life has become a bit of a trainwreck. Somehow I've found myself single and sharing a home with my parents at 37 years old. I try to tell myself things could be much worse…and honestly they could be much worse. It's never easy sharing a home with mom and dad at 37 though. Just seems that everything happens at once. My mother's health is failing, my dad has finally retired, and my long term on again-off again relationship with Bj finds itself off again. Somehow in this twisted mess the children seem to be thriving. My mom and dad finally decided to call the farm home again and that makes for a very good support system. There is so much that my parents can teach them.
I look around me at all that goes on and even I wonder, how did I accomplish all this? Somehow I've managed to build this farm into what it is today while raising some of the most intelligent, beautiful, witty, and talented children ever. Children you don't see talking all day on a cell phone or lugging around an Ipod. They enjoy technology, but I've not let them forget what's really important in life. I've tried to instill in them this love of the land, the animals, the old folks, and the old ways.
Garett started taking allergy injections about 18 months ago and has absolutely come out of his shell. The child who spent most of his childhood inside is now, all boy. He never misses a baseball game, a fishing trip, a bike ride, or a trip to the waterpark. I so enjoy tossing baseball, gardening, and just hanging out with him.
Madison is doing well also. She's a well rounded child, very much a tom boy. It's so exciting for me because she is very interested in the farm. I'm thinking she might be the one to keep this place going when I'm gone. It's so cool to see her saddle up and ride her horse, to see her excitement when there are new arrivals to the farm, to watch her run barefoot in the freshly tilled soil.
Katie and Kaylee both are well rounded children too. However they are teenagers and have discovered they really don't need dad, unless of course it's to pay the cell phone bill or drive them to some must attend function. They've discovered boys now and dad seems to be the foe more than the friend. It's okay, I know there will come a time when I'm needed again. I know first hand it's not really that easy being a teenager.
The farm is growing by leaps and bounds. We've had two very rewarding years that have allowed us to improve and expand. I've worked hard, but the light at the end of the tunnel is now brighter than ever. Our herd of cattle has grown to 16. It will soon be time to sell off some of this years calves and invest in more. We have had 9 calves born on the farm this year. 20 seems to be a good round number for a small herd. I've given up some of my hay ground in an attempt to free up time. I'm still going to be doing atleast 100 rolls and considering squares seriously. I've talked to Farm Credit about financing for a new square baler. It's hard to pass up these low interest rates. My Mahindra dealer picked up the Massey Ferguson line a couple years ago and I've been kicking the tires on an 1837 small square baler ever since. It would be great to have squares put up for the horses. They tend to waste a lot of hay, but I don't complain for fear of colic. Besides the goats don't seem to mind leftovers. It's amazing the job the goats have done cleaning up the area we refer to as the soup bowl. We've finally finished the fencing around the cliff areas and in just a few weeks they have made a big dent on the briars and undergrowth.
All the tractors are doing great. I've decided to put the 6000 up for sale. If it doesn't sell by spring of next year I plan to trade it in on a smaller 4035 PST. I'm very intrigued by the PST transmission and hope to get to demo one. It seems it would be a perfect fit for working with litter in and around the chickenhouses. We have developed a system that has eliminated all but just a little of the physical labor during cleanout. By using the 3316 HST to move 3 slats at a time into piles of 6 I've cut the time expended by about a third. The 7010 has a tough time maneuvering in the houses because of the cab. That leaves using using the 6000 inside and it too is a bull in a china shop. Long term I hope to add an 8560 cab to the fleet for rolling hay and pulling a lime/litter spreader. Recently I stumbled onto an old list I had made of things I needed to take the farm in the direction I wanted. The only things missing were a new square baler and a V rake. Now if I could just stumble onto an old "to do" list maybe I could mark some things off.
Well I won't keep you….please be sure to check out our more recent pics and leave comments so I'll know someone is still there to read! Thanks for reading and God Bless!

BMA's Mahakan mess
News, Postbag, Published on 21/01/2017
» It is with deep disappointment that we have read Peerawat Jariyasombat's strangely ill-informed article, "A lesson in development" (BP, Jan 16, 2017). In a move that seems calculated to pander to the greed of developers rather than nurture the human resources represented by local populations, Khun Peerawat hails the efforts of Korean authorities to replace an existing population with an artist colony, but says nothing about the fate of the original residents.

The BTFA, or Baby Throwing Foundation of America, is a recent progression in the Baby Throwing World.
"I'm President"
The Charter[edit]
The Baby Throwing Foundation of America was originally founded, on the supreme belief that babies should be thrown, by Mahatma Gandhi. In times where Gandhi just wanted to hit something but couldn't, he threw babies against walls yelling, "I HATE BABIES!"
We would also like to add that none of the members of this group are liable for any babies stolen or damaged during the act of throwing them. We also do not condone the throwing of babies by nonmembers. Or the stuffing of dynamite into babies and the putting of the babies into the bellies of whales and the dropping of the whales on small coastal villages and/or townships. (by those not properly trained)
Babies are also tasty once they have been thrown but may contain high amounts of cholesterol. So be advised. Or not, that choice is yours.
Unbeknownst to many but knownst to us, there were many other and more covert Baby Throwing Organizations over the years. Take the free masons, for example. Actually, don't take them as an example, because we can't prove anything. But…there were some members who enjoyed an occasional baby romping and/or stomping. Or throwing, tossing, kicking, stabbing, blowing up, etc. Or whatever the fuck you want to fucking do.
Over the centuries, baby throwing has evolved into other more socially acceptable pastimes. There include but are not limited to; midget throwing, midget tossing, midget kicking, midget stabbing, midget blowing up, and football. See Brett Favre
But this group wants to get back to basics. Just plain throwing babies. In order to counteract (add to) the violence of modern day video games, we throw babies at walls and sometimes we toss bobcats into random child care facilities which gives everyone a good laugh and lifts spirits. Also, the throwing of dead babies is strictly prohibited. Unconscious babies are fine though.
We also can solve many political arguments. "Many" as in one main one. Abortion. We are strictly against the killing unborn fetuses…before they are born, that is. In fact every one in four babies are randomly selected to grow up in a loving BTFA society of equal opportunities…unless you are a baby.
Of course, your next question will be how we put up with the people that think baby throwing is wrong and immoral. Actually, the answer is quite simple. We throw babies at their fucking faces.
"What do we do with all the baby shits, you ask?" Well the answer is quite simple, Jeff. We light them on fire and put them on people's doorsteps. Oh no Jake, not the shits, the babies. And for larger problems, we stuff whales full of babies and drop them on PETA conventions or whichever extremist radical group is on our asses.
Also, toddlers are strictly prohibited. Once the babies have grown enough hair, they are considered "not babies" or perhaps toddlers or something to that effect. And the throwing of Elves is frowned upon, but not prohibited.
- Stuffing Babies with dynamite
- Stuffing whales with stuffed babies
- Dropping those whales on small villages
- Throwing bobcats into childcare facilities
- Watching Brett Favre tear the babies' limbs off
- One activity, though possibly more controversial than others (like we care) involves babies dropped from airplanes into the mouths of waltzing whales. It would be kind of like a vaudeville reenactment of World War Two; of course, we would have to reincarnate Groucho Marx.
For those who are baby impaired and can not come up with babies to throw...[edit]
We have a baby delivery system for those people who just can't get a hold of a baby. Say someone is sitting in his/her living room, and he/she is all like "Dang, mans, I gots to throws some babies." But when he/she looks around he/she is all like "Ah holy craps, doods, poop-snapples I don't gots nones." So he/she calls up our toll-not-free number and orders 70 babies to throw, or he or she could go to website and be all like "look at me, I'm going crazy with the online orders. Get me some babies, skeet, yeah." This entails a way to freeze dry and shrink the babies for optimum storage and delivery and then when you add water it expands and comes to life.
- Please note that the phrase "Skeet, Yeah" is entirely optional. Or is it?
- Also, we have been told we should have a baby throwing hot line for people who just don't understand the idea/point of throwing babies, or for the more dedicated throwers who need help troubleshooting baby throwing related problems.
What to do with those umbilical cords?[edit]
If you're like the Native Americans and like to utilize every aspect of your kill, there are numerous ways to use the umbilical cord that accompanies nearly every baby (almost 95%) that comes out of a womb.
First, you could use the babies with their umbilical cords as tether balls, and since the baby would be constantly accelerating in circular motion, the baby would technically constantly be being thrown, causing an endless amount of amusement.
Or, for those practical people, you could turn the babies into bolas (you know, those one things that the South American gauchos swing over their heads to trip their prey as they ride on horses). That way you can use the babies themselves to catch bobcats for more baby-throwing past times, conserving the precious metal and other resources previously used for catching the bobcats.
Other Suggestions[edit]
-Other suggestions have also included a race study to see what race of baby produces the best effect when thrown against a wall. Criteria - splatter area, sound, reaction (of audience and baby), resistance, ability to be be thrown again, and knowledge of aerospace engineering.
-Join the BTFA facebook group and start throwing babies today!

MARTIN, Tenn. – A stout defensive effort from the nation's No. 1 ranked unit helped the Tennessee State football team defeat UT Martin, 29-15, on Saturday.
The Tigers (7-1, 4-0 OVC) only allowed 4.1 yards per play, recorded 12 tackles for loss (five sacks), tallied two takeaways and forced 19 Skyhawk penalties.
Freshman quarterback Ronald Butler led the offense, completing 11-of-19 for 160 yards and one touchdown. Junior Ryan Mitchell was Butler's favorite target, as the receiver caught five passes for 84 yards and a score.
The contest started with five straight three-and-outs in which the teams combined for a total of two yards. On TSU's third drive, Butler completed a 33-yard pass to Lavatiae Kelly, but the big play only led to another Tiger punt.
After forcing the Skyhawk offense of the field, TSU finally struck pay dirt with its first play of its fourth series as Butler found Mitchell on a crossing route. A good play-action sucked the UT Martin (4-3, 2-2 OVC) safeties towards the line of scrimmage, and Mitchell was a few steps passed his defender when he caught the ball at the opposing 40-yard line. From there, Mitchell did the rest, beating his man further for the score.
The pass and catch totaled 61 yards and Jamin Godfrey's point after put TSU up, 7-0, with two minutes to go in the first quarter.
UT Martin's offense responded on the next drive by moving the ball all the way down to the TSU 31 yard-line. D.J. McNeal fumbled on the ensuing play, and Nick Thrasher recovered, giving the Big Blue offense possession. The takeaway brought the first quarter to a close with the Tigers up by a touchdown.
The Tiger defense held the Skyhawks to 58 yards of total offense during the first 15 minutes. UT Martin quarterback Jarod Neal was just 2-of-6 for 12 yards and the Skyhawks committed six penalties for 30 yards.
Early in the second period, a fake punt from UT Martin sprung punter James Satterfield for a 21-yard gain – UT Martin's longest of the game up to that point. The Skyhawks used short passes to ultimately set up a 40-yard field goal attempt. However, TSU's Anthony Bass blocked the attempt and De'Ante Saunders returned the ball 54 yards for a Tiger touchdown.
The great play on special teams put Tennessee State in the driver's seat, 14-0, with just over 10 minutes to go before halftime.
The Tigers struck again two plays later as Daniel Fitzpatrick picked off Neal at the 20-yard line and waltzed into the end zone untouched for TSU's third touchdown of the game.
The interception was Fitzpatrick's fifth this season and fourth in TSU's last three games. He is now the FCS leader in interceptions.
The Big Blue defense came up with another key play on UT Martin's next offensive possession. After two straight negative plays, Bass and Shipley wrapped up Skyhawk running back McNeal in the end zone for a safety. The score was TSU's 23 point in a nine-minute and four seconds span.
UT Martin had one final chance to score before halftime, but a 68-yard drive yielded zero points, as the clock expired before the Skyhawks could attempt a 25-yard field goal.
The Tiger defense had eight tackles for loss in the first half, three of which were quarterback sacks.
TSU went three-and-out to start the third quarter and UT Martin took advantage with a 10-play, 49-yard scoring drive. Neal found Jeremy Butler on a fade route from 11-yards away to make the score, 23-7, in favor of the Tigers with six minutes gone in the second half.
Tennessee State could not answer on its next series, and was forced to punt. Martin bowled into Leon Holderhead, causing a running into the kicker penalty. On Holderhead's next attempt, Jeremy Butler fumbled the kick and TSU's Martine Stevenson recovered at the UT Martin 28-yard line.
The heads-up special teams play set up a 44-yard field goal from Godfery, putting TSU on top, 26-7, with under four minutes to play in the third.
Back-to-back sacks halted UT Martin's next drive, and the Tigers took over on their own 15-yard line to begin the fourth. Butler engineered an 11-play, 82-yard drive that was aided by a 23-yard run from Broughton to set up a field goal attempt. Godfrey's kick was deflected, but still went through the uprights from 20-yards away to put Big Blue in front, 29-7.
Broughton, who came into the game as the OVC's leading rusher, finished the day with 86 yards on 22 carries for a 3.9 average.
The Skyhawks added a late touchdown when running back Trent Garland scored from two-yards out at the 1:33 mark. Garland then added the two-point conversion to make the final score, 29-15.
Tennessee State will go for its eighth straight win on Oct. 26 against No. 3 ranked Eastern Illinois for homecoming. Kickoff is scheduled for 4 p.m. at LP Field.

Following up my last post on how building a community is like hosting a party, I saw a great post this morning from Doc Searls, wherein he riffs on how companies come to him all the time, and say "we've built this great site, why don't more people visit it?":
The other day I was sitting in the company of leaders in one industrial category. (I won't say which because it's beside the point I want to make.) A question arose: Why are there so few visitors to our websites? Millions use their services, yet few bother with visiting their sites, except every once in awhile.
The answer, I suggested, was that their sites were buildings. They were architected, designed and constructed. They were conceived and built on the real estate model: domains with addresses, places people could visit. They were necessary and sufficient for the old Static Web, but lacked sufficiency for the Live one.
This goes RIGHT along with what I've been saying about how community building is like hosting a party. So many people come to me and say "we've built this great community site. Now how do we get people to use it?" They've built a building. A house for the party to happen in. It's a usually necessary first step (the party COULD happen "in the streets" on Twitter, FriendFeed, etc. without a "house" of its own), but it's ONLY a first step.
Once you've got a party house, stop worrying about the house, and start worrying about getting people to come to the party and have a good time!

Press Releases
Carl's Jr. Heats Things Up With Spicy Burger Addition
Feb 23, 2005
New Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger is Paired With Texas Toothpicks(R) Side Item
CARPINTERIA, Calif. -- Feb. 23, 2005 -- Carl's Jr., widely known for bringing sit-down restaurant quality burgers to fast-food customers, introduces yet another example today with the launch of The Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger topped with Texas Toothpicks. Texas Toothpicks are spicy batter-fried slivers of onions and jalapenos. They not only add heat but a nice crunch to the Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger, and will also be offered as a side item on their own.
Many Carl's Jr. burgers feature toppings that aren't usually available from traditional fast-food chains. Last year, the chain unveiled The Pastrami Burger(TM), featuring an all-beef patty topped with thinly sliced, deli-style pastrami. Then came the Breakfast Burger(TM), a burger crowned with a fried egg and hash browns. Now, Texas Toothpicks are making their debut atop The Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger, the newest member of the popular Six Dollar Burger line.
"The crispy texture and spicy flavor of the Texas Toothpicks combined with equally spicy barbeque sauce make this one of my favorite Six Dollar Burgers," said Brad Haley, Carl's Jr. executive vice president of marketing. "Most fast-food chains wouldn't dare to offer something with this much punch, preferring instead to water down taste in their quest to appeal to the masses. But, Carl's Jr. customers have come to expect more from us and The Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger won't disappoint them."
The Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger is charbroiled, like all Carl's Jr. burgers, and features a generous layer of Texas Toothpicks on a 100-percent Angus beef 1/2-pound patty, two slices of American cheese, fresh lettuce, sliced tomato, and plenty of zesty BBQ sauce on a toasted, sesame seed bun.
Participating Carl's Jr. restaurants will offer The Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger at a suggested retail price of $4.59. Texas Toothpicks are also available as a standalone side item at a suggested retail price of $1.89.
Carl's Jr. is a wholly owned subsidiary of CKE Restaurants, Inc. (NYSE: CKR) of Carpinteria, Calif. As of the end of the third quarter on Nov. 1, 2004, CKE Restaurants, Inc., through its subsidiaries, had a total of 3,183 franchised or company-owned restaurants in 44 states and in 13 countries, including 1,017 Carl's Jr. restaurants, 2,047 Hardee's(R) restaurants and 101 La Salsa Fresh Mexican Grill(R) restaurants.

The Jennifer Government Code
Dear Max Barry,
after visiting Nationstates.net i decided to read your book, Jennifer Government. While reading, I read something which made me think: "What would you get if you scanned the barcode?" Is it simply a random arrangement of numbers, or does it have meaning?
~A Jennifer Government Fan
Well, A Jennifer Government Fan, that's a good question. The answer is long, convoluted, and filled with heartbreak. Well, no, not really. It's just long and convoluted.
First, the barcode on the book's cover doesn't match the one in the story. That is, while Jennifer Government in the novel has a barcode tattoo for a particular product—which nobody is going to give away in the comments here, lest I smite their account—the barcode under Jen's eye on the cover is for the book itself. More specifically, it's for the US hardcover edition.
Or so I was told at the time. The truth, I was to discover, ran deeper.
During cover design, I didn't care much whether the barcode matched up to what was in the book, partly because I had very little say in it, partly because I was so grateful to get a cover that didn't suck balls I was weeping with joy, and partly because who the hell would ever know? But upon hearing what Doubleday wanted to do, I thought, "That's cool. You could take the book up to the counter and buy it by scanning the front."
I went around telling people this, until about a year later a guy with more knowledge of barcodes than is really healthy, Todd Larason, wrote an exposé on the Jennifer Government cover. It's a very interesting piece, if you're me or unhealthily fascinated by barcodes. Here's a taste:
"But wait!", I hear you cry, "You said it's an EAN-13, not an ISBN, and as everyone knows they have incompatible checksum digits!"
Todd uncovered the non-match between the story and the cover, and that was just his warm-up. He also discovered that while the barcode digits on the covers of many editions of Jennifer Government are for the US hardback, one of the few that doesn't match is… the US hardback. For some reason, in a last-minute change, the barcode number on its front cover was altered: instead of ending in a 2 (like here), it ends in a 3 (like here). This means it matches the book's ISBN, but not its barcode.
Why? It's a mystery. I can only presume that somebody thought they were catching a typo just before the print run.
Todd Larason wasn't done there. His final observation was that according to the official EAN-13 standard, the barcode's bars don't match its numbers—nor the ISBN, nor anything else. It's not actually a valid barcode. It's just funky-looking black lines.
(P.S. If you're interested in seeing how the cover evolved, take a look at the Jennifer Government Extras.)

As 113th Congress begins, Boehner finds himself boxed in like never before… But he will still likely win re-election as speaker… The 113th Congress, by the numbers… Assessing the aftermath of the fiscal-cliff deal: Obama emerges as a winner… But is it just a short-term win?... The re-emergence of McConnell… And the re-emergence of Biden.
Molly Riley / AFP - Getty Images
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, walks out after a second meeting with House Republicans at the Capitol on Jan. 1, 2013.
*** Boehner boxed in: Exactly two years ago, John Boehner was the toast of Washington. Fueled by the Tea Party gains in the 2010 midterms and facing a humbled president and Democratic Party, Boehner was elected House speaker. Flash forward to today: Boehner likely will once again win election as speaker. But after passage of the fiscal-cliff deal and the House's inability to pass a Hurricane Sandy relief package, Boehner finds himself boxed in like never before. Roll Call: "Over the past few weeks, the Ohio lawmaker has been raked over the coals by members of all stripes within his own party — first by those seeking less spending in exchange for tax rate hikes, then by those seeking more spending for disaster aid. The public thrashing came to a head Wednesday when New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie … blatantly accused Boehner of political cowardice for pulling a supplemental aid package for those affected by Superstorm Sandy." (Boehner has since said that getting Sandy relief will be the first legislative priority of the new 113th Congress.) The one true achievement by Boehner and the House Republicans is that they have turned every spending bill into a debate, which wasn't the case before, and that is an achievement for the party of small government. But here's the central question to ask: Is the Republican Party in a better position today than it was two years ago? It's hard to argue "yes" to that question.
*** But he will still likely win re-election as speaker: As noted above, with today's start of the 113th Congress, the House of Representatives will vote to elect a speaker of the House. While it is likely that John Boehner will be re-elected as speaker, per NBC's Frank Thorp, we could see the first second ballot for speaker since 1923 if 16 conservatives decide to vote against Boehner. Thorp adds that the 113th Congress will convene for the first time at noon ET, after which the House will vote to elect the speaker. Members will be called by name alphabetically and asked for their vote. This vote is different than typical votes, which are done electronically during a set period of time. The speaker needs a majority of all votes cast to be elected. If all members were to vote, Boehner would need 217 votes, unless there are members who are absent for the vote, or members who vote "present" (for no one). By the way, it seems that the House No. 2 Republican, Eric Cantor, was caught selling out the king in the Sandy mess. Here was Christie at his press conference: "I was called at 11:20 last night by Leader Cantor and told that authority for the vote had been pulled by the speaker." Just askin', but when Cantor decided to share with Christie his version of what happened to Sandy relief, did Cantor know Christie would go public? Remember all those stories about Cantor and Boehner becoming closer? Um, yeah… how do you spell a-w-k-w-a-r-d?
As the 113 Congress convenes, 82 House freshmen and a dozen new senators will be sworn in on Thursday. The Daily Rundown's Chuck Todd reports.
*** The 113th Congress, by the numbers: The 113th Congress' partisan breakdown will be as follows: In the House, per NBC's Frank Thorp: 233 Republicans, 200 Democrats, two vacancies (Tim Scott and Jesse Jackson Jr.) That means once those two seats are filled, it will likely be 234-201.) That's a slightly narrower breakdown than the 112th, which ended with 240-191, four vacancies. In the Senate, Democrats will continue to control the Senate – but with a slightly larger 55-45 majority (including two independents who will caucus with the Democrats). As NBC's Carrie Dann reported last month: A record-breaking 20 women will serve in the Senate, while 78 will be seated in the United States House. There will be 16 Iraq and Afghanistan vets of the new members. There will also be four new members who are LGBT, almost doubling the number of openly gay lawmakers. And remember, for the first time in history, white men will NOT make up the majority of the House Democratic caucus. Also, today marks the return of Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) after his stroke. Per the Chicago Daily Herald, Kirk "plans to climb the 45 steps of the U.S. Capitol without the aid of a handrail."
*** Assessing the aftermath of the fiscal-cliff deal: A win for Obama: Yes, liberals and Senate Democrats think President Obama gave up too much for a deal. And, yes, there's another fiscal fight coming up (more on that below). But he got a deal, proving that the GOP "fever" did break, at least for a while. He also delivered on a campaign promise to raise the taxes on the wealthy (although had to compromise from $250,000 to $450,000), and he got Republicans (!!!) to give him cover in raising taxes -- something Bill Clinton was never able to do. And he protects a fragile, yet growing, economy. It's hard to see how that isn't a win for the president.
*** But is it just a short-term win? The question is how long that win lasts. After all, we'll have another fiscal showdown in two months over the debt ceiling, government operations, and the sequester. So what happened over New Year's was a partial surgery -- the patient and the doctors still need to come back to finish the job. Yes, Republicans now have more leverage heading into this debt-ceiling fight. But two things happened over New Year's that are significant: 1) Republicans proved they could support an increase in tax rates and 2) House Republicans also proved that you don't need a "majority of the majority" to bring legislation to the floor. And there is now a path forward for future deals, as the New York Times notes, with the White House working with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. But can that last? And who speaks for Republicans? Those are questions over which the Obama White House will have to wrestle.
*** The re-emergence of McConnell: Speaking of the Senate minority leader, so much for the early thought that the Senate -- and Senate Republicans -- wouldn't be a key factor in the negotiations. Given how much the GOP was going to be blamed for going off the cliff, McConnell protected his party, and it allows it to fight on better terrain two months from now. McConnell, who faces re-election in Kentucky next year, pens a Yahoo op-ed saying that he will now be pursuing spending cuts. "Was [the fiscal-cliff deal] a great deal? No. As I said, taxes shouldn't be going up at all. Just as importantly, the transcendent issue of our time, the spiraling debt, remains completely unaddressed. Yet now that the president has gotten his long-sought tax hike on the 'rich,' we can finally turn squarely toward the real problem, which is spending." Can McConnell politically handle making the right mad by becoming the dealmaker in a year he has to prep for his own re-election in very red Kentucky? And if not McConnell, who? And who speaks for Republicans? If Boehner isn't going to do anymore one-on-one talks with the White House (and why should he at this point, the trust between the two offices is just awful at this point), who is Boehner's wing man? Cantor? (See Sandy story.) McCarthy? (He's tight with Cantor.) Perhaps it's Paul Ryan? (But does he have his own ambitions?) The White House would certainly like to know; they LOVE the Biden-McConnell gambit, but could other partnerships be created? Say, Geithner-Ryan on the debt ceiling? Or how about Obama-Rubio on immigration?
*** The re-emergence of Biden: Has there been a more underappreciated vice president? Yes, he's the butt of jokes and "The Onion" parodies. But the guy delivered in reaching across the aisle. The whole point in Obama hiring Biden was to have him as his congressional go-to guy; For some reason, many in the West Wing are hesitant to let Biden be Biden and play this role until the very last minute. While Biden allowed himself to be rolled by staffers every now and then in the West Wing, in a second term (with his own eye on the Oval), we're guessing Biden's going to less inclined to take a backseat come March.

A remix of this song would be gross. The song is already fire and Bobby ray and Bruno come in hard for an excellent duo. I don't think he's gunna ruin it with a pointless remix that will trash the song.
If you got J. Cole on it, i believe it'll be fire. Luda could also hold it down but he's shined enough already wouldn't you agree?
I think Ludacris would be really good on the remix. His verse alone would bring a lot more attention to this song. Not only that, but Ludacris' verse would probably be great.
I'd really want to hear what J. Cole could do with this beat flow-wise. No doubt he can hang lyrically but I don't think he's come out with a track that sounds really poppy and upbeat (excluding Star is Born).For sure he can relate to the theme of the song, alot of his tracks are bout girls and all. It'd be a good look for him plus he's on the come-up (no pun intended). Benefits both sides.

Mental health experts help flood victims
A mental health expert says community members affected by natural disasters need each other's help to stay healthy.
Queensland Health has deployed more than 20 psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses and social workers to Bundaberg and the Lockyer Valley to monitor residents' wellbeing.
However, incident commander associate professor David Crompton says locals should also look out for each other, watching for anybody who is withdrawing into themselves.
"You also might be mindful of the person who seems to be spending 10, 12 hours a day trying to fix everything up because that's placing them at some risk.
"The other aspect that I believe people should watch out for, if they notice that people are maybe starting to drink a bit more alcohol than usual."
Associate Professor Crompton says it is important people are seen to as soon as possible.
"There are some processes which are called psychological first aid which actually give people information about how to cope," he said.
"In a number of cases this can prevent people going on to develop more complex problems like depression, severe anxiety or post-traumatic stress disorder."
School pressure
Queensland Education Minister John-Paul Langbroek says he is worried about the mental health of teachers and students from flooded schools.
He has met school staff in Bundaberg today.
Five schools were forced to delay the start of the school year after losing equipment and buildings.
Mr Langbroek says it is important to help staff and students get back to normal.

NV county hopes plan prevents sage grouse listing
March 17, 2013 at 05:48 PM
The Associated Press
RENO, Nev. (AP) — Officials in a rural northeastern Nevada county have approved a pilot project designed to keep sage grouse off the endangered species list by killing ravens with poisoned eggs and by reducing wildfire threats through livestock grazing.
Elko County commissioners say the program set to begin on the 15,000-acre Devils Gate Ranch is needed because wildfires and ravens pose the biggest threat to the imperiled chicken-sized bird. They say fires destroy sagebrush the birds rely on, while ravens are by far its most common predator.
It's the first such private-local government agreement to stave off a federal listing, commissioners said, and was prompted by concern that listing the large ground-dwelling bird could result in federal restrictions on grazing, mining, oil and gas drilling and other activities on public land.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced in 2010 that sage grouse across the West deserved protection under the Endangered Species Act. The agency pledged to make a final listing decision by late 2015.
Sage grouse populations have fallen 90 percent in the past century, and habitat has declined 50 percent.
"We think it's a program that will sweep the West, but we don't think the federal government will support it. They've bought into the claims of environmentalists," Commissioner Grant Gerber said. "We think it's mainly going to be a private initiative and local-county initiative."
Commissioners attribute the bird's decline to dramatic increases in wildfires and ravens. Livestock reduce cheat grass and other fuels on the range that feed fires, they say, and some of the worst fire seasons on record occurred after the government sharply reduced grazing on public lands in recent decades.
"If we don't control the ravens and don't stop the fires, the sage grouse are in real trouble," Gerber said.
The Idaho-based Western Watersheds Project criticized the plan, saying it will destroy sage grouse habitat. The organization has called for the removal of livestock, the closure of two-track roads and a ban on new oil and gas drilling to conserve the bird's habitat.
"Their fixation on killing and poisoning native wildlife and turning lands back into a dustbowl is really twisted," said Katie Fite, the group's biodiversity director. "It's a big distraction from ranchers having to be held accountable for limiting their cattle and sheep herd impacts to sagebrush habitats on public lands."
Ted Koch, state supervisor of the Fish and Wildlife Service in Reno, agreed with the county that wildfires and ravens are factors in the bird's decline.
But his agency views habitat loss and fragmentation as the most serious threat to sage grouse in the West, he said, and considers the spread of invasive species such as cheat grass as its biggest threat in the Great Basin, which covers much of Nevada and Utah and portions of Oregon.
The government blames the increase in wildfires on decades of fire suppression that caused a buildup of fuels, as well as the spread of highly flammable cheat grass.
Cheat grass is replacing sagebrush and other native vegetation that sage grouse rely on. The birds need cover in the form of grasses and forbs under sagebrush for nesting, Koch said, and the county's plan would be less helpful to sage grouse if it results in removal of that cover.
"We welcome their efforts and look forward to their results," he said. "However, our approach is to try to conserve and protect native sagebrush ecosystems. We're not sure about their approach. We're just not sure how effective it will be. But there's a lot we don't know."
Koch also said more needs to be done to reduce ravens, saying Nevada alone has seen a 600 percent increase in the scavengers in the last three decades. The agency supports steps to remove "human subsidies" behind the increase, such as limiting ravens' access to garbage dumps, he added.
Ken Bowler, owner of the Devil's Gate Ranch about 25 miles northeast of Elko, said he's heading into the pilot project with an open mind.
"Let's not jump to the conclusion that it's mining and grazing causing problems for sage grouse," he said. "We want to know what the real deal is."
Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval's new Sagebrush Ecosystem Council is working with local governments, stakeholders and others across the state to prevent a listing of the bird. "We look forward to continuing to work together on this vital issue," said his spokeswoman Mary-Sarah Kinner.

T.J. McConnell compiled 12 points (5-for-9 shooting), eight assists, a rebound, a steal and a block in 30 minutes in Friday's win.
Both McConnell and Jeremy Lamb, who finished with 16 points, four assists, four rebounds, two triples, a steal and a block, took advantage of Malcolm Brogdon continuing to miss time. Don't hesitate to explore sell-high offers for Lamb after nice games like this as his value could quickly deteriorate when Brogdon and eventually Victor Oladipo return.
January 25, 2020, 1:17 amDoug McDermottSF, Indiana Pacers
Doug McDermott was unconscious from distance in Friday's win, finishing with 24 points (9-for-10 shooting), six triples, two rebounds, an assist and a steal.
Even though it's the second time in the last week McDermott has caught fire like this, don't overreact. He is simply a threes specialist and one that is clearly capable of filling it up quickly when he's feeling it like he was tonight.
January 25, 2020, 1:15 amD'Angelo RussellPG, Golden State Warriors
D'Angelo Russell dropped 37 points (13-for-21 shooting), nine triples, five assists and four rebounds in Friday's 118-129 loss to the Pacers.
While Russell doesn't always provide the most well-rounded fantasy lines, games like Friday night are part of the fun in owning the talented young guard. Big scoring performances like this one help buy a little leeway when he doesn't provide defensive counting numbers.
January 25, 2020, 1:13 amMarquese ChrissPF, Golden State Warriors
Marquese Chriss got the first crack at the starting spot with Willie Cauley-Stein traded in Friday's loss to the Pacers, scoring 13 points (5-for-5 shooting), three rebounds, two steals, two blocks, an assist and a triple.
With Cauley-Stein off to Dallas, Chriss seems to be worthy of a speculative add. The Warriors only figure to prioritize developing youth even more as the season winds down which plays perfectly for the value of Chriss.
January 25, 2020, 1:11 amDraymond GreenPF, Golden State Warriors
Draymond Green finished Friday's loss against the Pacers with 10 points, 11 assists, six rebounds, one triple, one steal and one block.
It was nice to see a productive outing from Green, who has regressed in a big way this season with the Warriors not competing. He is someone that could get shut down later in the year and is worth shopping around after big games like this one.
January 25, 2020, 1:09 amGlenn Robinson IIISG, Golden State Warriors
Glenn Robinson III finished Friday's loss with 18 points (7-for-10 shooting), seven rebounds, two triples, an assist and a block in 37 minutes.
The 37 minutes were the most by any Warrior, as Robinson has been a top-100 producer when healthy this season. Continue to have him in your lineups down the stretch for Golden State.
January 25, 2020, 1:06 amAlec BurksSG, Golden State Warriors
Alec Burks registered 11 points (3-for-14 shooting), seven assists, five rebounds and two triples in Friday's loss to the Pacers.
Burks has enjoyed a sustained run of fantasy relevance this season as a points, threes, free throws and assists producer. There's a decent chance he gets traded from the Warriors which would likely hurt his trade value. See if you can clip him for a top-80 option.
January 25, 2020, 12:30 amDevin BookerSG, Phoenix Suns
Devin Booker had a nice night in Friday's 103-99 win over the Spurs, scoring 35 points (11-for-20 shooting), 10 assists, four rebounds, three triples and ten made free throws.
The insane efficiency continued for Booker, who seems locked in as a top-25 asset this season. This is the healthiest he's been in a while so fantasy managers need to enjoy this production and make the most of it.

Although originating in Britain, the gothic has taken root in American literature with fiction that explores the dark and hidden sides of human culture, creating worlds teeming with the buried, the undead, the supernatural, the forbidden, the demonic, and the grotesque. This seminar focuses on Toni Morrison's novel /Beloved/ in order to explore the unique characteristics and concerns of the American gothic. Seminar particpants will think about the way the novel uses the gothic to "re-member" history, and examine the conceptual underpinnings of this genre: the return of the repressed; anxiety over bodily and cultural boundaries; excess and transgression; the monstrous other/self, and ambivalence.
Seminar led by Ann Brigham, Roosevelt University

IHeartChaos' Cranberryzero was so impressed with the Nintendo 3DS augmented reality cards that he decided to have one permanently stabbed into his skin. What could be better than this augmented reality tattoo? I have a few suggestions.
Since the release of the Nintendo 3DS, people have been putting images of its augmented reality cards everywhere, from t-shirts to the sides of buildings, all for the sake of making Nintendo characters and games pop up in bizarre places. This was only a matter of time.
Luckily for CBZ the tattoo AR card works like a champ, though there is at least one easily remedied problem.
Right now, the tattoo doesn't always work in really bright light, like sunlight, but it works fine in dim-ish light. I think I need to go back and get an outline around it, because I think the 3DS is looking for the edge of the card and can't find it in bright light. In the manual, it says to never obscure the white border around the card when you're using the 3DS, something I didn't notice til later.
You can see it in shaky action via the YouTube clip, demonstrating one of the key ways I feel this tattoo could be improved upon. Don't put it on your arm.
In order to play the augmented reality games on Nintendo's 3DS, you ideally want both hands free, something that's hard to do when the image you have to focus on is on one of those hands. My suggestion? Have it placed on your upper leg, just above your knee. That way wearing shorts becomes a wonderland of Nintendo magic, and you can get two of them to keep things balanced.
My other suggestion? Use one of the character cards instead. That way you are etching a permanent love letter to a Nintendo character on your body, and that's never a bad thing, plus you can put them in creative places for maximum effect.
I'll leave those places up to your imagination.
Nintendo 3DS augmented reality tattoo is awesome, real [IHeartChaos]

IPSEC VPN to Cisco ISR - ISAKMP Phase-2 invalid ID
this is my first posting here and actually seems quite a nice place for a mainly *BSD based forum
I have been working for the last couple days trying to learn OpenBSD and create a router/gateway/firewall/VPN system..... from scratch knowledge wise at least in order to build the ultimate Cisco router killer - as they're soooo underpowered (honest opinion as am Cisco fan + qualified engineer).
Ok so after 3 days I got everything working <brag>
But to be serious now I am having issues interfacing with my Cisco router using IPSEPC over GRE.
Basically what I have done is first attempt OpenBSD<->OpenBSD using IPSEC which worked fine.... routing OSPF over gre0 interface - very nice linear and easy.
However, with Cisco I am getting this as error:
020025.953079 Default isakmpd: phase 1 done (as responder): initiator id 192.168.0.1, responder id 192.168.0.2, src: 192.168.0.2 dst: 192.168.0.1 020025.963221 Default responder_recv_HASH_SA_NONCE: peer proposed invalid phase 2 IDs: initiator id 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0, responder id 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 020025.963708 Default dropped message from 192.168.0.1 port 500 due to notification type INVALID_ID_INFORMATION 020116.068136 Default transport_send_messages: giving up on exchange from-192.168.0.2-to-192.168.0.1, no response from peer 192.168.0.1:500
I ran a: debug crypto isakmp on the Cisco box which to show a portion of it gives this information:

Nothing useful is really shown in the above Cisco debug.
From the more useful OpenBSD logs and debug information and even initial stages of Cisco debug routine.. it seems that ISAKMP Phase-1 is completing without any issues.
I can't figure Phase-2 out though and have tried everything in order to change the ID given by the Cisco or change the way IPSEC on OpenBSD handles that information.
This is Cisco config for site-to-site VPN which works using Cisco<->Cisco without any problems or issues:

This is what I have in /etc/ipsec.conf on OpenBSD:
ike esp from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.1 peer 192.168.0.1 main auth hmac-md5 enc 3des group modp1536 quick auth hmac-md5 enc 3des srcid 192.168.0.2 dstid 192.168.0.1 psk "secret"
I wasn't quite sure if I needed to add another line defining the Tunnel interface in the ipsec.conf file as my BSD to BSD definition is as follows:
ike esp transport from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.3
#ike esp transport from 10.255.255.101/30 to 10.255.255.102/30 peer 192.168.0.1

As I'm still quite unfamiliar with OpenBSD and using Cisco IOS mentality a lot of the time I am pretty sure that I've either misunderstood/interpreted the documentation or don't know about some other way to initiate compatibility between both systems.
The reason for the IP addresses being Local are basically that OpenBSD is setup on Virtual Box with bridged interface to my notebooks NIC, as this is a test bed so WAN IP addresses not really important at this stage!
Can anyone give me a hand??
I'd really appreciate any kind of advise or help as I've been racking my brain trying to figure this thing out constantly reading the man pages and trying to Google the errors but with no-luck.... and additionally (don't know why) but OpenBSD howto guides don't seem to work as well as FreeBSD, Linux or Solaris. Actually they don't work period as I've attempted to try to analyze other peoples claims and configs too......
What happened to good old: dummies guide to LAMP
Anyway thanks for any responses in advance
After all this time and no "hello welcome" message let alone support
Nevermind..... <siiiiiigggghhhhh>
Here's the solution incase anyone needs it in the future:
Becasue Cisco ISR routers are primarily meant to be connected to the network WAN edge as gateway or other edge devices it seems that the IOS product groups didn't decide to implament a way to be able to manipulate or alter the ISAKMP Phase-2 header or initiator ID field within the crypto packets.
So using a quick crash-course in Engineering Psych 101; using the P2 header of "ANY to ANY" seemed more efficient and less troublesome.
This means for interoperability that other manufacturers need to have the same ISAKMP implementation mentality or a way to be able to manipulate or adjust the P2 header in order to be able to sync-up with the ISR range.
Since OpenBSD isn't a product but instead a very powerful operating system this feature should definitely be implemented!!
By using the /etc/ipsec.conf configuration parameter string of:
ike esp from 0.0.0.0/0 to 0.0.0.0/0 peer 192.168.0.1 main auth hmac-md5 enc 3des group modp1536 \ quick auth hmac-md5 enc 3des psk "secret"
Just for justification purposes; the P2 headers are defined by the "from" and "to" statements.
Once that has been issued the connection then establishes without any further ado!
Please see the attached images for confirmation

Nice that you got it working. I think the reason for the lack of replies might be that not that many people here have experience with setting up IPsec between OpenBSD and "other" devices. :/
If engineer qualified for company x then always engineer of company x and there's no changing it. I tend to be a bit eclictic in that sense that I learn what I like and/or what I feel is interesting.
But hopefully this posting may help someone further on down the line........
Now off to go bulid a PPPoE server and client to simulate an ISP's PoP server. ....oh did I mention that have been using OpenBSD properly for round 1 week???? haha
P.s. since the tac of this forum don't let me edit my posts would it be kindly possible for a moderator or so to change this malformed line:
New members to this site are restricted from some features as a security measure against spammers. These restrictions are lifted once members get above a predetermined number of posts. We apologize to new members for the inconvenience, but it is only temporary as credibility is established.
Many thanks!
Uh I'm so excited now to build this router of mine, basically the hardware I picked can actually route at 10Gbps.... well just under as it seems to be a limitation with x64 architecture but it's nice to see OpenBSD can easily kick Cisco's ASCII
Oh and how cool is it when people ask: "what router have you got?" to just reply with: "I designed and built it myself"
Though am still 3 years away from 1Gbps residential internet and metro ethernet too expensive

Gun control group to march over Brooklyn Bridge
NEW YORK >> Hundreds of demonstrators are expected to march across the Brooklyn Bridge to call for tougher gun control laws.
Saturday's demonstration, which comes after a wave of mass shootings across the U.S., is being underwritten by former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, one of the nation's most visible gun control advocates.
The marchers — who will include relatives of some of those slain in the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting — will gather in downtown Brooklyn and then march across the bridge to City Hall. They will then hold a demonstration outside the building's gates and chant "Not one more," the rallying cry uttered by Richard Martinez, whose son Christopher was shot to death in Santa Barbara, California, last month, according to organizers.
Other speakers include Shannon Watts, who organized the group Moms Demand Action, the actress Amanda Peet, and the mothers of several gun victims. Additionally, Erica Lafferty — whose mother Dawn Hochspring was the principal at Sandy Hook — is expected to address the crowd and call for tougher federal laws.
The event is being run by several groups — including Moms Demand Action, Everytown For Gun Safety and Mayors Against Illegal Guns — which are all bankrolled by the billionaire former mayor. Bloomberg, who will not be in attendance, has pumped millions of his own money into the anti-gun cause, even after leaving office in December. His successor, Bill de Blasio, has praised Bloomberg's efforts but will not be attending the rally.
Seven people, including the shooter, were killed in Santa Barbara on May 23. Two people, including the shooter, were killed Tuesday at an Oregon high school, the second school shooting in a week.
