I know I have not blogged in a while so today I thought I'd share something that I wrote two years ago. On Mother's Day 2010, I was asked to speak in Church. This is what I wrote and shared with the congregation:
I'd like to share with you a story. This story starts about 2100 years ago, with a man named Ammon, a son of King Mosiah. My story isn't centrally about Ammon, but his story is the prologue. It sort of sets the stage.
Ammon went on a mission after repenting of a severely rebellious childhood. While Ammon was a missionary, he met a group of people under a king named Lamoni. These people were Lamanites, enemies to the Nephites: enemies to Ammon's people. But Ammon won King Lamoni's trust and worked as a servant. He was humble and diligent and, whenever possible, looked for opportunities to demonstrate the power of God. King Lamoni was impressed with Ammon, and started to ask him the kind of questions every missionary loves to hear. Questions like, "is there a God?"
Ammon had all the right answers, because he was led by the Spirit to know what to say. To make a long prologue short, Ammon was instrumental in the conversion of a large group of people who eventually became known as the Ammonites. The Ammonites are the main subjects of my story today.
I want us to remember throughout this story that the Ammonites were converts. They had lived a vicious lifestyle and now thirsted instead for virtue. The Ammonites had seen death and murder, crime and corruption, but when Ammon came into their land preaching the Gospel of Christ they were "pricked in their heart," like Peter's audience on the day of Pentecost, and they wanted nothing more than to follow God the rest of their lives.
Part of the way they showed God their change of lifestyle, their change of heart, was by burying their weapons. Literally, they buried all their swords and bows and axes deep in the ground, and made an oath with God that they would not use them anymore. They felt like their hands were stained with the blood of former enemies, and as part of how they showed their discipleship, they vowed to never fight again.
So that's a portrait, if you will, of who the Ammonites were.
This is when things get difficult. See, the Ammonites were often under attack by the Lamanites, now their enemies. But they had no way of defending themselves, because they had promised God they would not fight. So their new friends the Nephites took them in with welcoming arms and said, "You stay with us. We have some land for you, and we will protect you." The Nephites fought and died protecting and defending the Ammonites. I want you to put yourself in the shoes of these people, these Ammonite converts: surely they felt terrible – powerless – and they wanted to defend themselves. The scriptures record that at one point, they were even ready to pick up their weapons again and break their oath. Of course that would not have been wise, to break their promise with God, but that is how dire the situation was.
And then something happened. Their sons, still quite young, volunteered to fight. These two thousand sons had not taken any oath of pacifism, so they could help with the war. The scriptures describe these sons in Alma chapter 53 as being young, courageous, strong, and most importantly, "true at all times in whatsoever thing they were entrusted." In other words, these young men had unshakable integrity.
This brings me to the topic I was asked to speak about today: the example of women, especially mothers, in the Gospel. These two thousand young warriors attributed their spiritual strengths to the teachings of their mothers. Helaman acknowledges the same debt in describing the soldiers, and later, the historian Mormon makes similar commentary, agreeing that these young men were who they were because of their mothers. In other words, the two thousand were so legendary and steadfast because of the examples of the righteous Ammonite women who raised them.
Let's examine one of those strengths, faith, in a little more detail. In Alma chapter 56, Helaman leads the two thousand young warriors past the city of Antiparah. Antiparah is holding the Lamanite's strongest army at this point, and the plan is to march near it, as if to carry supplies to a nearby Nephite city, and lure the Lamanites out. The Lamanites took the bait, and started chasing down Helaman and the two thousand. Meanwhile, another Nephite army – led by Antipus – joined the chase from behind. When the Lamanites saw that they were being chased, they kept pressing forward, intending to wipe out Helaman's two thousand men before Antipus' army arrived. This chase continued for quite a while. Eventually, though, it seemed as if the Lamanite army was no longer on Helaman's tail. So our heroes stopped, and discussed what could be happening. Helaman described to his men two possibilities:
1. Antipus caught up with the Lamanites and wiped them out, or,
2. The Lamanites are setting a trap, stopping to see if we'll turn around. When we turn around to see what happened, they'll wipe us out.
He then asked them, "what say ye, my sons, will ye go against them to battle?"
The answer is inspiring. "Our God is with us," they said, "and he will not suffer that we should fall; [so] let us go forth." Helaman records that these young men were not afraid of death, and that "they had been taught by their mothers, that if they did not doubt, God would deliver them." Remember, these warriors were still quite inexperienced, and this was to be their first battle. But instead of fear, their hearts were full of courage and faith. They knew that what their mothers had taught them was true: God delivers.
Later, we read that none of the two thousand died in the battle. Chapter 57 records that "their minds [were] firm, and they [did] put their trust in God continually." That sort of faith and trust came from the apparently deep and powerful impressions their mothers left on them. It wasn't just that their mothers taught or explained those principles; their mothers lived those principles. Remember, these mothers are Ammonite women, converts who had listened to the words of Ammon and who had changed their lives to invite Christ into their hearts. These women knew the power of the Spirit, and strived to keep it every day – and their sons noticed. This, brothers and sisters, is an exemplary story about how the righteousness of women, especially mothers, can have a profound effect on others.
As we celebrate Mother's Day, let us ponder in what ways our own mothers were and are like the Ammonites. We might not feel like we are similar at all to Helaman's young warriors, but in God's eyes we are certainly young, and in God's eyes we are certainly in a war. As we do spiritual battle every day, let us remember our mothers, and try to make them proud. Let us remember to always trust God, and he will deliver us. The sacrifice of our Savior Jesus Christ has made that deliverance possible. I know that to be true, and I know my mother knows it to be true. I am ever grateful for her testimony, which she graciously allowed me to lean on until I gained my own. I am ever grateful for her loving support as I left to serve a mission. I am ever grateful that – years ago – my mother, like the Ammonite women, listened to the promptings of the Spirit when missionaries like Ammon shared the Gospel with her. I know the message that they shared was true: that, in answer to King Lamoni's question, there truly is a God. He lives, and he loves us, and this is his church.

Government policy on transparency comes back to haunt the Cabinet Office
The case in question concerned a request by a journalist for information relating to the takeover in 1988 by Nestle of Rowntree Mackintosh. Some information was disclosed, but five documents were not and the Cabinet Office further refused to confirm or deny whether there were Cabinet Office minutes relating to the issue. The Cabinet Office's refusal was confirmed in its internal review decision made in November 2010, some 22 years after the events in question and 9 months after the announcement of the new policy on the 20 year rule.
On 13 July 2012, before the First-tier Tribunal ("FTT") decision in the instant case, the Coalition announced it would seek to introduce the reduction of the "30-year rule" in a manageable and affordable, and therefore staggered manner, such that the new "20-year rule" would be fully in effect by 2023. That staggered approach would, however start from 1 January 2013.
The FTT, like the Information Commissioner ordered disclosure of the five documents in dispute, and found that the Cabinet Office could not refuse to confirm or deny whether there were Cabinet papers within the scope of the request. The FTT, like the parties, accepted that the information was in the scope of the section 35 exemptions for information relating to the formulation or development of government policy, and ministerial communications, but considered the public interest favoured disclosure. It did so, in part, on the basis of the length of time that had passed since the events in question and the fact that the "30-year rule" was being reduced to a "20-year rule".
Before the UT, the Cabinet Office sought to argue that reliance on the Government's policy in this respect, which was not yet in force, was an error of law. This was rejected by the UT, finding that the FTT had been perfectly entitled to take into account "the interval of over 22 years" and the "general views expressed on behalf of the government about the reduction of the 30 year rule to a 20 year rule."
The UT also rejected the Cabinet Office's argument that Cabinet minutes should be afforded some form of special status, like legally privileged information, with an effective presumption against disclosure. In particular, the UT did not consider it appropriate to "put into the jurisprudence any sort of sliding scale of relative weights on the factors behind one of the exemptions in FOIA as compared with others."
In addition, the Cabinet Office asserted that there was no genuine public interest in disclosure behind the generic public interest in transparency. In this respect, the Cabinet Office had sought to rely upon a press search with limited results to demonstrate a lack of evidence of public concern. The UT agreed with the FTT that this approach was "misconceived", finding that "the public interest is a matter for the judgment of the Commissioner or a tribunal in the light of the background facts."
Finally, the UT rejected an argument that effectively amounted to an assertion that the very fact an exemption had not been upheld by the FTT demonstrated that the public interest balance had been wrongly conducted. Indeed, rather than an ever-present "very weighty" need for a safe space for Cabinet discussions, the UT considered there could be circumstances in which disclosure would actually improve conduct, particularly where Cabinet interference would be inappropriate, for example, in relation to a quasi-judicial decision.
As a result the UT upheld the earlier decisions that the five documents should be disclosed and that the Cabinet Office should confirm whether or not it holds relevant Cabinet papers. However, as is the nature of the FOIA regime, in respect of the Cabinet papers, the Cabinet Office could still seek to rely on other exemptions to prevent disclosure.
This decision highlights again the difficulties for public authorities resisting disclosure where significant time has passed since the creation of the documents in question, not least in light of the government's policy towards increased transparency, including its decision to reduce the 30-year rule. It is yet to be seen whether the Cabinet Office will continue to seek to prevent the disclosure of documents, which disclosure would actually be entirely consistent with its own transparency agenda.

The fate of diablo2realms is a sad one. I do remember it's past glory and still today hold James 100% accountable for the downfall that became of this server. But with the age of Diablo 2, being 17 maybe 18 years now. And the peak of diablo2realms being 10 years ago. It is kind of hard to bounce back. I actually came by a old email in my inbox and saw the Sebzy name. Ironic I caught it just after the server shutdown.
Trying to bounce back just wasn't meant to happen although we all tried. Unfortunately there was people who just set out to sabotage us it seemed every step of the way. I sadly had to give up. What was intended to be a couple weeks worth of work to set this place up turned into months worth of setbacks from the bad behavior of others. From James completely ruining the datasheets to another individual hacking the forums wanting power.
There is a silver lining. There is a active friendly Private Diablo 2 server out there you can still call home. It has several hundred active players at any given time. It's not Sebzy but it still is a friendly place if you want to play and call home.
Good Luck

Settlement removes cloud from 'Spider-Man' musical
Credit: The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The bickering parents of Broadway's most expensive show have made up — in court at least — and that removes a huge cloud above the future of "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark."
Producers and fired director Julie Taymor hashed out a settlement that was announced Wednesday, and both sides released statements hoping the superhero show could now soar beyond Broadway.
Taymor, the original "Spider-Man" director and co-book writer, was fired in 2011 after years of delays, accidents and critical backlash to a show whose price tag ballooned to $75 million.

Effects of temperature and precipitation variability on snowpack trends in the western United States

View Abstract Email to Receive a Copy
Recent studies have shown substantial declines in snow water equivalent (SWE) over much of the western US in the last half century, as well as trends towards earlier spring snowmelt and peak spring streamflows. These trends are influenced both by interannual and decadal scale climate variability, and also by temperature trends at longer time scales that are generally consistent with observations of global warming over the 20th century.

Nova SF-80 loudspeakers
as reviewed by Victor Chavira
Nova - a star that explodes producing a light 100,000 times brighter than the sun
You may have noticed glossy advertisements featuring unusual-looking loudspeakers by Sound Fusion, a new speaker company based near Toronto. Sound Fusion's basic speaker is the two-way stand-mount Luna. The Nova is a Luna atop a bass tower. The Ariel is a powered Luna, and the Hyperion is a powered Nova. Sound Fusion is a branch of a large furniture corporation, and the construction quality of their speakers reflects the company's experience with fine cabinetry. I received a review pair of Novas finished in beautifully patterned birdseye maple.
The organic shape of the Nova (right angles are nowhere to be found) is designed to reduce internal standing waves and edge diffraction, both of which blur transients. The beveled front and back baffles are shaped out of 3-centimeter-thick furniture-grade birch ply. They are attached to the cabinet with gaskets to provide further isolation from vibration. Finally, the drivers are fixed to a carved flange and another gasket before being fitted to the baffle. As a result, the drivers do not come into direct contact with the cabinet. The top cabinet is joined to the bass module, but is isolated by a 15-millimeter-thick slab of birch ply and gaskets. Knocking on the sides of the upper cabinet with my knuckles made a muted thud, while the bass tower produced a more resonant sound.
Optimal placement of the Novas was made difficult by the fact that two people are needed to move these 115-pound, top-heavy towers. I suggest using a dolly or hand truck to maneuver the speakers into their final positions. Then screw in the threaded brass spikes and slide the four compliant pucks underneath each spike. This puts the tweeters 47 inches from the floor, nearly 10 inches higher than the tweeters of my Marten Miles IIs. At first I thought that this would affect my listening position, but the wide dispersion patterns of the ribbon tweeters' meant that the speakers let me remain in my favorite spot on the couch.
Ribbon tweeters are like a new Pat Metheny CD. I do not need to hear either to know I'm going to like them. The Novas' highs extend to 60kHz, and their upper octaves sound remarkably clear, extended, and detailed. Listening to the Pat Metheny Group's 2002 CD, Speaking of Now, I was impressed by the detailed sound of Antonio Sanchez' drum kit. At times, his superb stick work on the ride cymbal sounded like fine grains of sand. His strikes on a cowbell, with their initial burst of energy and quick decay, were holographically projected between the speakers. Layers of guitar were rendered with individuality and coherence.
The Novas' ability to sift out the fine detail from recordings was one of their strongest assets. Vivaldi's Concerto in G for Two Mandolins by the Pa...

- "I always wanted to meet a movie star, but Lelan was quite a surprise. Lelan is kind of old, kind of corny, but we love him just the same."
- ―Neurophyte [src]
Lelan was the support engineer aboard the Novalis II. He is also a proven master of Karate.
Biography Edit
- Source from MxO archive
In his bluepill life, Lelan was an incredibly well-known action/martial arts movie star. He had always sensed that something wasn't exactly right with the world – success and fame came to him as naturally as breathing, while others struggled to keep their heads above water.
After seeking his answers, Lelan was Awakened by the Novalis II crew. Lelan is in a unique situation with the Novalis II crew in that he is physically their elder, but most of the members of the crew have been Awakened much longer than he.
People, redpill and blue, still come up to him requesting autographs and referencing movies in which he was the star. His handle, "Lelan" was one of his most famous acting roles. Lelan loves the attention, as he is sometimes wistful for the bluepill life he led.
As he said in his last movie, Death of a Warrior: "We go forward, never back. You can't go back. Ever."

Sound-On-Sound has a good article on this: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/nov04/articles/pcmusician.htm FireWire and USB 2.0 interfaces have improved a lot. They mention the UA-1000 specifically as a good choice. It is absolutely essential though that you have a computer with USB 2.0 ports rather than the older, slower USB 1.1. ports. If your computer is more than 3 years old, you need to check. They make an amusing comment about musicians bemoaning the lack of FireWire 800 ports. FireWire 800 is necessary if you intend to have 56 simultaneous channels of 24-bit 192kHz audio. Now that's a looping rig I'd like to see! But as they point out, if all you need is stereo and space is a concern, the Echo Indigo is a great choice. Jeff

Hypopituitarism following traumatic brain injury – short- and long-term results
Hypophysäre Insuffizienz nach Schädel-Hirn-Verletzungen – Kurz- und Langzeitergebnisse
Suche in Medline nach
|30. Mai 2008
Objective: Recent data have suggested that significant pituitary dysfunction following traumatic brain injury is common. The pathomechanism leading to these dysfunction is not known. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and kind of pituitary dysfunction following traumatic brain injury after a longer time interval.
Methods: A total of 52 patients (30 male, 22 female, mean age 50.8, age range 16–88 years) were included. The patients were investigated 1 and 5 years following TBI. Basal hormone values and dynamic testing of pituitary function was performed using combined anterior pituitary test and glucose tolerance test. The results were correlated to data on the mechanism and magnitude of the accident and the subsequent trauma sequels.
Results: In 58% of the patients, the dysfunction of at least one hormone axis could be demonstrated. In 12% a combination of deficiencies for 2 or 3 axes could be found. The incidence of deficiencies of the gonadotropines and of prolactine was significantly lower when compared to the growth hormone, TSH and ACTH/Cortisol axes. There were no significant differences between the incidences 1 and 5 years following TBI. In multivariate analysis, CSF fistula, skull base fracture, GCS score, increased ICP and contusions could not be identified as risk factors for posttraumatic pituitary dysfunction.
Conclusions: In conclusion we found that more than 50% of the patients develop persistent pituitary dysfunction 1 and 5 years following TBI. The growth hormone and ACTH/Cortisol axes were significantly more affected. The functional testing using overlapping tests seems to increase sensitivity for the detection of pituitary dysfunction. It should be performed in all patients 1 year following TBI.

"The appearance of conflict is as dangerous to public confidence in the administration of justice as true conflict itself. Justice must not only be done; justice must also be seen to be done." --Lloyd Cutler, 1981
Over the past three years, the Department of Justice has filed criminal charges against hundreds of ordinary Americans for financial fraud. But no one from the largest banks and firms on Wall Street have been similarly charged for events leading up to the financial crisis. Could that be because those banks are clients of the firms from which top DOJ officials hail?
In November 2009, President Obama established the Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force to deal with financial crimes related to the 2008 financial crisis. As Attorney General Eric Holder, chairman of the Task Force, explained at the time: "This Task Force's mission is not just to hold accountable those who helped bring about the last financial meltdown, but to prevent another meltdown from happening. We will be relentless in our investigation of corporate and financial wrongdoing, and will not hesitate to bring charges, where appropriate, for criminal misconduct on the part of businesses and business executives."
None of that happened. The Task Force is still humming along almost three years later, but its highlighted successes are less "business executives" than ordinary Americans who have had the book thrown at them. From their website:
"Three Connecticut Women Charged with Overseeing 'Gifting Tables' Pyramid Scheme." Three women in their 50s and 60s have been indicted on conspiracy, tax and wire fraud charges. "These arrests should send a strong message to all who threaten the financial health of our communities," said one federal agent.
Ten people in Las Vegas have been criminally charged with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud in a "scheme to fraudulently control" Condominium Home Owners Associations. They have pled guilty and face up to 30 years in prison.
"Justice Department Sues Princeton Review for Claiming Reimbursement for Tutoring Services It Did Not Provide." The educational publisher apparently billed the federal government for reimbursements in connection with a federally-funded program for underprivileged children.
"Alabama Real Estate Investor Agrees to Plead Guilty to Conspiracies to Rig Bids and Commit Mail Fraud for the Purchase of Real Estate at Public Foreclosure Auctions." Steven Cox will get one year in prison because he and some friends agreed not to bid against each other at public auctions and then hold a second secret auction with the properties they purchased. This meant that they 'artificially suppressed prices…[and] homeowners and others with a legal interest in rigged foreclosure properties receive less than the competitive price for the properties," reads the Task Force press release. People in several other states have been similarly charged.
"Former Real Estate Appraiser Sentenced in Washington, D.C. to 65 months in Prison for Mortgage Fraud." A property appraiser goes to jail for fraudulently manipulating mortgage applications while flipping real estate properties. The fraud scheme cost mortgage lenders $2.3 million. A Florida man was sentenced to 14 months in federal prison for obstructing an SEC investigation.
Certainly there have been opportunities to aggressively investigate criminal acts of fraud involving the largest banks and investment houses. The SEC has alleged that half a dozen banks "knowingly" passed fraudulent information along to government agencies and investors. The same charges have been leveled against several of the largest investment houses as it relates to subprime mortgages.

California Governor Jerry Brown recently vetoed an amendment to the state's texting-while-driving law. The bill would have increased the penalties for texting while driving and similar offenses. The Governor felt the penalties for unlawful cell phone use while driving were already stiff enough to punish and deter this type of distracted driving.
The bill also proposed a first-of-its-kind law, banning texting while bicycling. This ban had support from the cyclist's lobby. It shows the extent to which lawmakers are concerned about the distraction caused by communications devices. Motorists, bicyclists and even pedestrians can all create a risk of harm - to themselves and others - from cell phone use on the roads. Be smart, use them wisely.
Original Article
Text messaging, sending a short text messages between cell phones or other handheld devices, is a phenomenon worldwide. Texting has grown from nearly 10 billion messages per month in December 2005 to more than 110 billion in December 2008.[1]
Why is Texting Dangerous?
Texting while driving results taking your eyes off the road, which can result in an accident. A July 2008 study showed that when drivers of heavy trucks texted they have 23 times the risk for a collision. A separate report by Car and Driver found that texting and driving is more dangerous than drinking and driving (DUI/DWI).[3]
Is Texting and Driving Legal?
Eighteen states and the District of Columbia have passed laws making texting while driving illegal. Also, seven states and D.C. have banned driving while talking on the phone. However, texting and talking while driving is not illegal across the United States and depends on the state line. Safety groups have urged a nationwide ban on texting and using handheld mobile devices while behind the wheel.
The Executive Order
President Obama signed an executive order banning federal employees from texting while driving a government-owned vehicle or using government-issued cell phones. In addition, the government plans to ban text messaging by bus drivers and truckers traveling across state lines and is considering completely banning them from using cell phones while driving.
The executive order was signed following a 2-day conference in Washington on distracted driving that included 300 academics, law enforcement officials, legislators, telecommunications and automobile industry representatives. In addition, families of people killed by drivers who were talking on cell phones or text messaging joined the conference.
Calling the conference "the most important meeting in the history of the Department of Transportation," Transportation Secretary Ray. LaHood explained that restricting text messaging by federal employees behind the wheel "sends a very clear signal to the American public that distracted driving is dangerous and unacceptable."[4]
A spokeswoman for the Transportation Department said the order takes effect immediately and involved 4.5 million federal employees, including military personnel.
What about the States?
While impacting most federal employees, the President's order can't force states to make texting and driving illegal. Under the US Constitution, states are in charge of their own "police powers" meaning that states make laws for the safety of their residents. However, while the federal government can't force states to enact certain laws, the government can influence states in other ways. For example, the federal government can make funds available only if the states act a certain way.
Over the summer, New York's senator Charles Schumer introduced a bill requiring states to ban texting or e-mailing while driving or lose 25 percent of their annual federal highway funding. Therefore, it's likely that most states will follow and make texting while driving illegal.
More Questions
After President Obama signed the order, many questions facing the trucking industry arose. Truckers need computers in their trucks to do their jobs and communicate with dispatchers.
On one side, studies show that using these devices while driving increases the risk of an accident; however, the trucking industry is concerned that bans could interfere with how well their jobs are done if phones and other texting devices can't be used. Furthermore, the general use of cell phones seems to be the main concern, not just texting.
One thing is clear: It's hazardous and takes away from your attention on the road even if you think you can handle it.

I think you need to clarify your poll. Yes to get rid of it or No to keep it. I vote no as in get rid of it but some might have thought no as in keep it.
Those 63% that said yes probably meant yes, get rid of it and the 37% that said no probably meant no, lose it.
I voted no get rid of it, but was it really worse than what we usually do on 3rd and 22, draw to gore.
At least we had a chance at the 1st if Spurlock wasnt doing his Jamarcus Russel impression. Ignoring the fumble and horrible pass Spulock looked quick with the ball. I guess im ok with it after all, it's not like the offense is doing anything besides 3 big plays.

What began as a student project turned into thousands of dollars worth of new, efficient water fixtures for the Innovation Center at Whitewater University Technology Park.
Members of the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater's student chapter of the American Marketing Association took home the top prize in a national competition to promote water conservation.
"We thought it was an interesting challenge," said Troy Fredrick '10, one of four students who worked on the project. "We were all conscious of the environmental benefit and thought if we could help, why not?"
The event, sponsored by Wisconsin-based Kohler Co., challenged student AMA chapters across the country to create a marketing campaign to educate consumers about water conservation.
Kohler provided money and supplies to help students execute their plans, including promotional materials like high-efficiency toilets and low-flow showerheads and faucets.
UW-Whitewater students held their event in the Timothy J. Hyland Hall atrium on April 22, Earth Day.
Fredrick said they were able to coordinate volunteers, cultivate sponsorships from local water conservation groups, engage attendees through social media and promote the event with the support of both the city and university.
When the students learned they won first place, they suggested the 38,000-square-foot Innovation Center, currently under construction, as the perfect place to house the $10,000 worth of "green" water fixtures.
"It means a lot to the community and campus in general. It means a lot for our group and chapter to leave our mark on the Innovation Center," Fredrick said.
City of Whitewater Manager Kevin Brunner said the fixtures, which will be installed in four restrooms over the next few weeks, will aid the city's application for LEED certification for the building.
"We really wanted the Innovation Center to promote green technologies," he said. "It's great that the enterprising efforts of students are benefiting this place. We're looking forward to getting these state-of-the-art, efficient Kohler products installed."
The 125-acre Whitewater University Technology Park is a joint effort of the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, the city of Whitewater and the Whitewater Community Development Authority.

Skip to comments.Press release just emailed by Sen. Lindsey Graham
Posted on 04/19/2013 9:15:57 AM PDT by servo1969
Dear Friends,
President Obama wanted three things on gun control -- to ban assault weapons, limit magazine sizes, and expand background checks. Fortunately, he lost on all three.
Ive always been confident if the Senate debated the Second Amendment, the Second Amendment would win.
Yesterday, the Senate took up, debated, and voted on gun violence legislation. I am very pleased we had this debate, and was always ready and willing to vote in support of what I believe.
Heres how I voted yesterday:
Voted Against the Manchin-Toomey Background Check Amendment (Failed 54-46, required 60 votes)
No matter how well-intentioned, the Manchin-Toomey amendment expanded background checks in an unwise way. The internet provisions would have been burdensome and difficult for citizens to comply with. In addition, it contained provisions making advertising a firearm in a community or church bulletin subject to the same processes as if buying from a licensed dealer.
Introduced and Voted in Support of the Grassley-Cruz-Graham Substitute Amendment (Failed 52-48, required 60 votes)
I was very proud the Grassley-Cruz-Graham amendment received a majority vote. I hope the House of Representatives will take up this bipartisan legislation which focuses on ensuring people like Alice Boland are in the National Instant Criminal Background (NICS) system. The legislation included important provisions for school resource officers. It holds the Department of Justice accountable for the gun laws they have not enforced. It was supported by the National Rifle Association and provided real-world practical solutions to the problem of gun violence. I strongly encourage the U.S. House of Representatives to take up and pass our legislation.
Voted Against the Feinstein Amendment Banning Assault Weapons (Failed 40-60, required 60 votes)
The assault weapons ban didnt work in the 1990s and it wont work now. I, along with millions of other Americans, own an AR-15. Only a fraction of the murders committed in the country involve any type of rifle and the Feinstein assault weapons ban does not address the real problems of gun violence.
Voted in Support of the Cornyn National Conceal-Carry Reciprocity Legislation (Failed 57-43, required 60 votes)
I voted for this amendment because it would allow a person with a valid state-issued concealed firearm permit to carry in other states that do not prohibit concealed carry.
Voted Against the Lautenberg-Blumenthal Amendment Limiting Magazine Size (Failed 46-54, required 60 votes)
One bullet in the hands of a homicidal maniac is one too many. But in the case of a young mother defending her children against a home invader -- a real-life event which recently occurred near Atlanta -- six bullets may not be enough. Criminals arent going to follow legislation limiting magazine capacity. However, a limit could put law-abiding citizens at a distinct disadvantage when confronting a criminal.
Yesterday, we saw that President Obama's politically-driven solutions to gun violence could not withstand scrutiny from Congress and the American people. Substance won out over the unsound solutions President Obama and others were pushing.
Lindsey O. Graham
United States Senator
Next week he'd vote for Feinstein's bill
Fellow citizen
Yepper, 100% correct.
He did vote for an "amendment" on the background checks issue.
I don't understand what they are trying to change about recirpocity. The States already work that out among themselves.
Hah! My thoughts exactly. How many times do our esteemed Senators have to play this game? Govern as a big Government loving liberal for the first 4 1/2 years, and than tack right the last year and a half to appease the constituents. Rinse and repeat.
I aggravated the hell out of him. I've been filling up his inbox all hours of the day for weeks.
One hopes.
If not, the search should begin at once.
We simply can't afford to lose a senate seat to the likes of another Akin creep.
Finally did something right.
He needs to pick up in other areas, like immigration.
No you don't. That is another example of a list the government would love to be in charge of.
The "People" should not allow their federal govenrment to get in on something they and their State have been reponsible for, and so far have done a darn good job of keeping within their state as far as who gets access to the list.
Wouldn't you love to have your government in charge of your right to carry?
They can't even be trusted with the Bill of Rights.
If you haven't noticed they want as many "lists" of the American people as they can get you and your state to put you on and then be responsible enough to give it to the Federal governement.
All in the name of common sense and individual responsibilty
Should be exactly like driving licenses, what do you not understand about that? Today you can drive in any state with a valid driving license issued by any other state. Currently you can have a CCW from say Oregon and drive into California, you are subject to immediate arrest.
D@mn straight why would you want Akin when you can have this?
He followed the McCain media spotlight like a frog to the gig.
I think you answered my question...."Just like Driver's licenses."
I'd be great with that. Mine is issued in Indiana and is no good in OH and IL, which is often problematic. I doubt politicians could get a law like that passed that would require interstate reciprocity regardless of individual state laws. But I would love to see it.
what the federal govt giveth, it can take away. I think it is up to the states to work out an agreement................

I just discovered the Heart 2011 Designer Ornament Collection from HSN, a partnership with a ton of celebrities and the ever so spectacular St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Browse a wide selection of ornaments including designs by some favorite
celebrities. Big names featured in this year's selection include Nate Berkus, Mariah Carey,
Liz Lange and Martha Stewart. The foodie in me personally loves the
selections from Emeril Lagasse and my personal inner goddess, Padma
Lakshmi–that's her design featured on the left. Too cute!
less than $25 you some big warm fuzzies of the holiday season knowing
you're helping one of the best organizations and causes in the country.
would suggest taking it one step further and sharing the love by
gifting the ornaments and letting someone know you donated in their
name–perfect for the office secret Santa or a great hostess gift. But
hurry; this collection is selling out fast. –Stephanie M

Do any of our local anglers have a depth finder that can ping deep enough to fathom the wisdom of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers?
The folks who jealously love Clarks Hill Lake to death by ensuring it has no water in it now want to keep everyone downstream protected in case Thurmond Dam breaks.
They just don't want you to know if you're in danger if that happens.
For years, the Corps has provided to Columbia County and other communities downstream from the dam an "inundation map," which shows where floodwaters would flow if the dam were breached - by natural disaster, terrorism or other calamity.
Columbia County Emergency and Operations Director Pam Tucker and county staffers have done an outstanding job of providing those maps for public review. Citizens can go to the county's Web site to see if their home would be in danger.
The Corps now has decided that's a bad idea. It works like this: If a homeowner can see where the flood waters would flow, that means a potential terrorist could see it, too. That terrorist then would know just how many homes the destruction of the dam would cause.
So rather than put that information in the hands of bad guys, the Corps wants to also keep it secret from homeowners.
But if that information is kept secret, doesn't that also mean individual homeowners won't know to be prepared for such a disaster? Do the folks at the Corps seriously believe that without access to the information, a potential terrorist would simply walk away from a plot? Do they really think withholding the inundation maps from public review is going to cause a single potential terrorist to foam in outrage, "Curses! Foiled again!"
If so, perhaps those Corps folks need to get jobs with the TSA, searching babies' diapers and groping grandma. That might not stop any actual terrorists, either, but at least it comes with instant gratification - and unlike those potential flood victims, at least they can see the faces of the people they claim to "protect" in the name of "fighting terrorism."
Give it a rest, guys. You aren't going to "protect" us by keeping information from us. It's far better to arm citizens with information so we can protect ourselves. Then the Corps can go back to doing what it does best: Watching the lake levels drop.

3PX|TechCon, BTS Summit's new flagship technology event, brings together business leaders and technology experts in a learning and networking environment. The conference will address the power of current and future technologies becoming known as the Third Platform (Social, Mobile & Mobility, Big Data & Analytics and Cloud Services) and how these technologies are being used to streamline operations, mitigate risk, enhance security and increase profits.
3PX|TechCon was developed for business and technology leaders including CxOs, CIOs, presidents, and general managers, as well as architects and engineers. It offers attendees the opportunity to learn more about the Third Platform, showcase technology solutions, and their ability to drive change and solve business needs.
The 3PX|TechCon agenda is packed with more than 80 sessions from industry experts including:
- Smart, Social, Connected, Mobile: Life in the 2020s - Peter Coffee, Salesforce
This session will focus on present trends and likely punctuations of technology and social behavior - fundamental forces that will transform work, leisure, education, entertainment, medicine, and every other sphere of human (and machine) activity.
- How In-Memory Computing Can Boost Cloud Performance for Big Data - Eric Frenkiel, MemSQL

In this session, two Facebook and Y-Combinator graduates will discuss how top mobile, gaming and financial services companies are solving problems with in-memory computing.
- Tackling the Convergence of Big Data & Advanced Analytics Technology - Ian Hersey, Attensity
How are new sources of Big Data and analytic techniques and technology helping organizations find new truths and business opportunities? This session will focus on use cases of leaders creating competitive advantage by shifting the data discovery boundaries in a way that allows them to make smarter decisions, take more risks, and gain deeper insights than their industry peers.
- The Agile Architecture Revolution - Jason Bloomberg, ZapThink
It's technology that can help the organization deal with change, and leverage change for competitive, strategic advantage. If only we knew how to put it all together properly. Enter Agile Architecture. How can we design systems that provide such agility? Take the best part of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), combine with what works from the Agile Manifesto, and mix with Complex Systems Engineering to create a revolutionary approach to meeting changing business needs in the context of today's ever-changing set of technology capabilities.

Poor data quality and analytics drive down business value. In fact, Gartner estimated that the average financial impact of poor data quality on organizations is $9.7 million per year. But bad data is much more than a cost center. By eroding trust in information, analytics and the business decisions based on these, it is a serious impediment to digital transformation.

You can keep Milan, London is the world's design hub, at least for one week in May.
Clerkenwell Design Week will take over that pocket of the city renowned for Turnmills, Victorian jails and the old River Fleet for two days from 22 to 24 May.
Daren Newton, co-founder of Clerkenwell Design Week told The Huffington Post: "Implementing innovation in the design world is an integral part of its future. Design is such a unique area we thought if it's not done properly soon, there might not be a chance to try again. This is why Clerkenwell Design Week is such a wonderful focus to introduce the latest in cutting edge design."
The rather abbreviated week builds on the success of previous years, with a programme of product launches, parties, auctions, debates and exhibitions, installations, open studios, workshops and more.
This year's event features a solar tree design beacon in St John's square, Made in Britain, access to the Farmiloe building, the Order of St John's Priory and the House of Detention, design shopping and an Eastern European contingent.
Take a look through a special preview of some of this year's highlights below.
