Boston Bomb Suspect Hospitalized Under Heavy Guard [VIDEO]
Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev lay hospitalized in serious condition under heavy guard Saturday — apparently in no shape to be interrogated — as investigators tried to establish the motive for the deadly attack and the scope of the plot.
People across the Boston area breathed easier the morning after Tsarnaev, 19, was pulled, wounded and bloody, from a tarp-covered boat in a Watertown backyard. The capture came at the end of a tense day that began with his 26-year-old brother, Tamerlan, dying in a gunbattle with police.
There was no immediate word on when Tsarnaev might be charged and what those charges would be. The twin bombings killed three people and wounded more than 180.
The most serious charge available to federal prosecutors would be the use of a weapon of mass destruction to kill people, which carries a possible death sentence. Massachusetts does not have the death penalty.
Questions To Be Answered
President Barack Obama said there are many unanswered questions about the bombing, including whether the Tsarnaev brothers — ethnic Chechens from southern Russia who had been in the U.S. for about a decade and lived in the Boston area — had help from others. The president urged people not to rush judgment about their motivations.
U.S. officials said an elite interrogation team would question the Massachusetts college student without reading him his Miranda rights, something that is allowed on a limited basis when the public may be in immediate danger, such as instances in which bombs are planted and ready to go off.
The American Civil Liberties Union expressed concern about that possibility. Executive Director Anthony Romero said the legal exception applies only when there is a continued threat to public safety and is "not an open-ended exception" to the Miranda rule, which guarantees the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney.
The federal public defender's office in Massachusetts said it has agreed to represent Tsarnaev once he is charged. Miriam Conrad, public defender for Massachusetts, said he should have a lawyer appointed as soon as possible because there are "serious issues regarding possible interrogation."
Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick said Saturday afternoon that Tsarnaev was in serious but stable condition and was probably unable to communicate. Tsarnaev was at Boston's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, where 11 victims of the bombing were still being treated.
"I, and I think all of the law enforcement officials, are hoping for a host of reasons the suspect survives," the governor said after a ceremony at Fenway Park to honor the victims and survivors of the attack. "We have a million questions, and those questions need to be answered."
Bitterness Towards The U.S.
Investigators have not offered a motive for the Boston attack. But in interviews with officials and those who knew the Tsarnaevs, a picture has emerged of the older one as someone embittered toward the U.S., increasingly vehement in his Muslim faith and influential over his younger brother.
The Russian FSB intelligence service told the FBI in 2011 about information that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a follower of radical Islam, two law enforcement officials said Saturday.
According to an FBI news release, a foreign government said that Tamerlan Tsarnaev appeared to be strong believer and that he had changed drastically since 2010 as he prepared to leave the U.S. for travel to the Russian region to join unspecified underground groups.
The FBI did not name the foreign government, but the two officials said it was Russia. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk about the matter publicly.
The FBI said that in response, it interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev and relatives, and did not find any domestic or foreign terrorism activity. The bureau said it looked into such things as his telephone and online activity, his travels and his associations with others.
As of Saturday, more than 50 victims of the bombing remained hospitalized, three in critical condition.

In one of your podcasts you told some guy about a strap on kit he could buy for his GF. Could you repeat that? I've been trying to find one.
I think you are referring to my 04/09/07 podcast. I responded to Karol from Poland inquiry about a strap-on kit. I said: "As to your question about a strap-on and what a guy should know about buying one for his female partner. That's another really good question. I suspect the overriding concern for the amateur butt pirate is to get his gal a comfortable harness that can accommodate a couple different sized dildos. May I turn you attention to the Dr dick's Stockroom banner on the left hand side of www.drdicksexadvice.com. Click through there and search for the Bend Over Beginner Harness Kit (B664). The good people at JT's have painstakingly put together everything you need for your first pegging!"
- Is there someone in your life who is curious about strapping it on, but doesn't know quite where to begin? Well, we have the perfect starter kit! Everything a beginning sensuous player would need to strap it on is included in this package (except their favorite water-soluble lubricant – sold separately).
- This strap-on harness is low-riding with a fuzzy, deep purple velvet front and highly adjustable nylon straps. The kit has 2 color coordinated, shimmery purple dildos. These hypoallergenic silicone dildos are shaped and sized appropriately for those just beginning anal play adventures. The smaller is approximately 4″ long and 3⁄4″ wide, while the larger one is 5″ long and 11⁄4″ wide.
- A powerful variable-speed mini-vibe sits in a secret pocket behind the dildo to give the wearer an extra jolt of fun. The straps are adjustable, fitting up to 50″ hips. The 11⁄2″ O-ring can be exchanged for play with other sized dildos (sold separately). Washable, smart, and sexy. Bottom line – this is one hot strap-on package!
Good luck

What is a cockring and how does it work?
Holy cow, Jordan, where to begin. Every man should know about cockrings. Cockrings, in one form or another, have been around for as long as there have been cocks…and that's a pretty long time, don't 'cha know! They are low-tech, but extremely effective means of getting it up and keeping it hard.
Cock rings can create larger, harder erections. Since blood flow enters your dick through arteries deep inside your dick, and leaves it through the veins on the outside of your tool, wearing a cock ring can help to keep more blood inside your dick shaft. And as all you rocket scientists know blood is what causes erections in the first place. Some men claim that wearing a cock ring intensifies their orgasm.
I recommend the flexible and/or adjustable cockrings. These are generally made of
stretchable rubber or leather. Let's take a look as some now. First, the Neoprene Cock Ring (B642).
- This light yet durable cock ring is made of neoprene – an oil-resistant substitute for natural rubber. Neoprene displays outstanding physical toughness and resistance to damage caused by flexing and twisting. It is an extremely versatile synthetic rubber with 70 years of proven performance in a broad industry spectrum.
Next, we have these festive little numbers, Gummy Cock Rings (B170)
- Fruity-colored cockrings with multiple soft knobs. When unstretched, it fits snugly around a pinky finger. When stretched, it can expand to a surprising diameter. Once removed, the ring will slowly contract to its original size. One size fits all.
For the more butch among us we have this handsome devil — Leather Cock Ring w/ Pyramid Studs (A413)
- This ring comes with pyramid-stud hardware for that extra-macho look. It measures 9/16″ and sports three snaps to adjust the size for a snug fit.
For the more daring there are the metal variety. They may look pretty, but they're a bitch to put on and to take off. Here's how ya do it.
1. Pull your ball sack through the ring first.
2. Follow this by popping each of your balls through the ring one at a time.
3. Now bend your cock down and pull it through the ring.
Let's take a look at some of these. First, the standard Aluminum Cock Ring (A888)
- This style of Cock Ring is a significant improvement over the standard steel O-ring. Since it is made of aluminum, it is very lightweight and perfectly smooth, as no connector seam is necessary.
- Sizing hint: Measure the circumference of (the distance around) the erect penis at the place where you want the ring to go. Divide by 3.1 and you have a ballpark number for the diameter of a snug-fitting ring.
Then there's "cockring as fashion statement" — Teardrop Cock Rings (B352)
- The Teardrop Cock Ring is worn around the cock and balls, but what makes this cock ring different is that it gently massages the perineum (the spot between the balls and anus) and other erogenous zones. It is made out of anodized aluminum, which is lighter and smoother than its chrome-plated counterparts, and preferable for people who have nickel allergies.
It's absolutely essential that you not wear this kind of ring for longer than a couple hours. Make sure you don't buy one that is too small either. If your dick is turning an angry red or worse, purple, or it is cold to the touch, you're in trouble. Take that ring off immediately. If you don't you will risk serious injury to your precious dick.
Good luck.

I think my roommate is a lesbian. She hasn't come right out and said so and I don't know how to ask. Her birthday is coming up and I thought I would get her a sexy toy or something to let her know that it's ok to talk to me about sex and stuff. Do you think I should get her a dildo? What kind of dildos do lesbians like?
Jeez Betty, how the fuck should I know what lesbians like? I'm pretty well versed on most things sexual, but even I am at a loss when it comes to the mind of a lesbian. I just put in a call to my favorite lesbiaterian, the magnificent Diana, for the 411 on toys for dykes and dyke wannabees.
If you don't want to be too provocative in your gift giving, Diana suggests you start out with a — I Rub My Duckie Vibe (B367)
- These floating, waterproof little guys sit by your bath, jacuzzi, or bed with nothing more than those big innocent blue eyes to give away their real purpose in life!
- Squeeze their backs and watch your smile grow as they seduce you and massage your tensions away. Waterproof On-Off Switch. Strong but quiet motor. Requires two AA batteries (included).
If you really want to pitch your friend an unambiguous message, Diana suggests a —
- This vibrator does everything! It has three functions. The shaft gyrates and is bendable with a wire inside to keep its angle. Mid-way down, there's a capsule of pea-sized pearls that rotate around the shaft for an undulating/ripple effect. And the bunny vibrates for clitoral stimulation.
If this doesn't do the trick, Betty, nothing will.
Good luck

Age: 58
Location: Tampa
I'm a widower; my wife of 29 years died a little over a year ago. I'm just now getting back into the swing of thing. The sex I had with my wife was very conventional now I want to try something different. I want to go to a dominatrix. I've always had a fantasy about a woman owning and punishing my privates. It's a big turn on. Is there anything I should know about this?
I love it; another kinkster in the making. Coming out as a perv is better done late than never, in my opinion. My first suggestion is that you find a better term for your privates than "privates". You sound like your mommy. I suggest cock and balls, it pretty much says it all very succinctly.
Have you done your homework in terms of finding the right dominatrix? I suppose you have at least a couple in mind, right? Might I suggest that when you make contact with one or another of these professional women that you be very specific about what you want and how you want it.
Here's a tip…a good submissive, or sub — that's you, Gary, will want to bring his dominatrix, or dom a little gift to start things off on the right foot. May I suggest this little number: A Male Chastity Kit (B702).
- It represents the latest design in modern male chastity. The natural flow of lines in this model represents the penis and conforms to the body. The slim, smooth lines permit this device to be worn easily under clothing. It is slightly vented with curving lines and custom openings for comfort and hygiene. The material, a highly durable transparent polycarbonate, is functional and appealing, and its strength exceeds that of acrylic and many other plastic blends.
Good luck

Diving the Cape Peninsula and False Bay/Miller's Point
The dive sites Miller's Point and Rumbly Bay are shoreline rocky reef areas in the Miller's Point area on the False Bay coast of the Cape Peninsula, near Cape Town in the Western Cape province of South Africa.
S34°13.822' E018°28.411' (Slipway)
This site is in a Marine Protected Area (2004). A permit is required.
Fairly shallow rocky reef with granite corestone outcrops and boulders. some smallish swim-throughs and quite a few overhangs and holes under boulders.
About 150 to 200m to the south west of the point in the direction of Boat Rock is a group large boulders rising from about 15 m bottom to about 10m. This group of rocks has rugged profile and some small caves and overhangs, and a relatively large variety of fish have been seen there. Exact position is not known.
Geology: Late Pre-Cambrian granite of the Peninsula pluton. There are examples of contact between coarse porphyritic granite and medium to fine grained aplogranite.
The slipway is well protected and usable in any conditions where diving would be possible.
Diving round the point is best on an offshore wind or calm. Avoid south easterly winds.
Large paved off-road parking areas open to the public. S34°13.920' E018°28.441'. Parking fees may be charged on an apparently random schedule. Ensure that you get a receipt from the gate attendant. Public toilets are at the turning bay above the slipway behind a fence, but can be accessed via a gap at the end of the fence nearest the sea.
The public slipway is to the north, at the top left of the photo, and has a small breakwater and jetty. Boat and trailer parking to the west, cars to the east. The tidal pool and lagoon can be seen in the centre of the photo. Rumbly Bay is to the lower left of the photograph.
Get in[edit]
Usually a shore dive.
There is a small beach and a small protected inlet at the tip of the point at S34°13.934' E018°28.577'. Access to open water is through gaps between the big boulders around it, which may be a strenuous swim in rough conditions. There are extensive kelp beds beyond the enclosure.
This small beach is on the South side of Miller's Point, facing Rumbly Bay, and with Castle Rocks in the background. This can be used as access to the kelp beds shown here and to the rocks off the point.
Turn towards the sea into a tarred road just south of the point. The ski-boat club will be diectly in front and the road splits and goes to the left. About a hundred metres along the two roads meet again at the gates to three parking areas.
To the south, through a steel sliding gate is the tarred parking area of the Ski-boat club.
To the north, at a slightly higher level, is the boat and trailer parking area, which is accessed through a boomed gate, which may be manned. This area is exclusively for vehicles with boat trailers, and parking for general motor vehicles is not permitted.
The third parking area is for ordinary members of the public, and is on the seaward side of the boat and trailer parking area. The gate to this area may be attended. If so, a fee will be required. It is not expensive, and you should be issued a receipt, or the attendant will pocket the money.
This parking is usually adequate in size. If you are there for a boat dive, park as close to the steps that connect the upper and lower parking areas as possible, as the boats are loaded at the top of the steps. If you plan a shore dive, park closer to your planned entry area. This usually means as far east as possible, just opposite the gate.
Foot access to the slipway is by a path through a gate at the north end of the parking area, or by the road to the slipway, which is longer.
Access to the rumbly bay entry area is obvious, as it is just to the south of the east side of the parking area.
The path to the sheltered area at the point is also from the east side of the parking lot, as shown in the photo.
See[edit][add listing]
Marine life[edit]
Dense kelp forests surround the point wherever there is a rocky substrate. There is a reasonable variety of invertebrates, but mostly those which flourish in relatively shallow water.
You can dive almost anywhere around the point, but be aware that there is a lot of boat traffic and keep clear of the affected areas.
Stay safe[edit]
Boat traffic to the north and east of the point may be heavy. Great White sharks have been seen in this area and there is a recorded case of an attack on a spear-fisherman.
No special skills required. The protected cove at the end of the point is suitable for training entry level divers, but is seldom used for this purpose because of the long walk to get there from the parking lot. The area is suitable for night dives and for snorkelling.
No special equipment recommended.

Let's start with the graph of the cube, otherwise known (in graph theory) as q 3. q n has as vertices all points in {0,1}n, with edges between pairs of vertices which differ in only one position:
q' k = graph (vs,es) where
vs = sequence $ replicate k [0,1]
es = [ [u,v] | [u,v] <- combinationsOf 2 vs, hammingDistance u v == 1 ]
hammingDistance as bs = length $ filter id $ zipWith (/=) as bs
For example:
> :load Math.Combinatorics.GraphAuts
> q' 3
However, this is a bit hard to read, a jumble of 0s, 1s and square brackets, so we normally work over integers instead, by considering the sequences of 0s and 1s as the bits in the binary representation of a number:
> q 3
Okay, so we would like to investigate the symmetries of the cube, and as we saw last time, what we're really interested in is just the different classes of symmetry, rather than listing every single symmetry.
> mapM_ print $ conjClassReps $ graphAuts2 $ q 3
What we need to do is look at the representatives of each class, and try to understand what they are doing, so as to be able to give a textual description:
- [] is the identity permutation, which leaves everything where it is
- [[0,1],[2,3],[4,5],[6,7]] is a reflection in a plane midway between opposing faces. There are three such elements, because there are three pairs of opposing faces.
- [[0,1],[2,5],[3,4],[6,7]] is a 180 degree rotation about an axis joining the midpoints of opposite edges. There are six elements, because there are six pairs of opposite edges.
- [[0,1,3,2],[4,5,7,6]] is a 90 degree rotation about an axis through the centres of opposing faces. There are six faces (or three pairs of faces, with clockwise and anti-clockwise turns).
- [[0,1,3,7,6,4],[2,5]] - this is an interesting one. There is a 6-cycle, so there's some sort of 60 degree rotation going on. But there is also a 2-cycle, so some sort of reflection or 180 degree rotation. If you think about it, you'll see that what is happening is that you're holding the cube by opposite corners (2 and 5 here), and spinning it by 60 degrees - but at the same time, reflecting it in the plane midway between.
- Exercise: Finish off the list
Previously we saw that the automorphism group of the complete graph k n is the symmetric group S n.
The conjugacy classes of S n are particularly easy to understand. Let's look at an example:
> mapM_ print $ conjClassReps $ _S 5
k 5 doesn't have an obvious spatial interpretation (unlike the pentagon and the cube that we have considered previously), so we're going to need a more abstract description of the classes.
Let's have a look at one of the classes:
> conjClass (_S 5) (p [[1,2]])
There might be a slight surprise here. Surely [[1,2]] and [[1,3]] don't belong in the same class, you might think, because 1 and 2 are next to each other, and 1 and 3 aren't. Or to take another example, we have [[1,2,3,4,5]], and [[1,3,5,2,4]] in the same class - surely that can't be right - we saw when looking at c 5 that one is a 1/5 rotation, and the other is a 2/5 rotation.
Well, the first thing to point out is that we can be misled by the spatial representation of a graph. In the picture of k 5, it might look like the relationship between 1 and 2 is not the same as the relationship between 1 and 3. However, from the point of the view of the graph, it is. An alien who saw in graph space rather than in 2-d or 3-d space wouldn't be able to tell a difference.
Another thing to emphasize is that conjugacy classes are relative to the group you're working in. For example, the elements [[1,2,3,4,5]] and [[1,3,5,2,4]] occur in both S 5 and D 10 (the symmetry group of c 5). In S 5, they are in the same conjugacy class, but in D 10, they are not. Specifically, we have:
> p [[1,2,3,4,5]] ~^ p [[2,3,5,4]]
[[2,3,5,4]] is an element of S 5, so [[1,2,3,4,5]] and [[1,3,5,2,4]] are conjugate in S 5. However, [[2,3,5,4]] is not an element of D 10, so they are not conjugate in D 10.
We can translate this back to our intuition about conjugate elements "looking the same but from a different angle". We have our alien who sees in graph space. When our alien is sitting in the graph space k 5, then [[2,3,5,4]], being a symmetry of the graph, is a transformation that moves the graph to a different angle. On the other hand, in the graph space c 5, [[2,3,5,4]] is not a symmetry - instead of moving the graph to a different angle, it just crumples the graph up.
Let's look a little more closely at that conjugation operation again:
> p [[1,2,3,4,5]] ~^ p [[2,3,5,4]]
Let's compare where we started - [[1,2,3,4,5]] - with where we ended - [[1,3,5,2,4]] - what has changed? Well, the 2 turned into a 3, the 3 turned into a 5, the 5 turned into a 4, and the 4 turned into a 2. So conjugating by [[2,3,5,4]] has the same effect as actually applying [[2,3,5,4]] to each of the numbers in the cycle notation for [[1,2,3,4,5]].
Why is this? Well, remember that:
g ~^ h = h^-1 * g * h
So if h is [[2,3,5,4]], what this says is:
- First, undo [[2,3,5,4]]. That is, put 3 into the 2 position, 5 into the 3 position, and so on.
- Next, do g. But if g says to do something to 2, we'll actually be doing it to 3, which is in the 2 position, and so on.
- Finally, do [[2,3,5,4]]. So put whatever's in the 2 position back into the 3 position, put what's in the 3 position back in the 5 position, and so on.
Well anyway, I'm sure if you think about it hard enough, you'll get it.
Getting back to the conjugacy classes of S n, it turns out that a conjugacy class in S n just consists of all elements having the same "cycle shape". For example, the class of [[1,2]] consists of all elements having a single 2-cycle. The class of [[1,2],[3,4]] consists of all elements having two 2-cycles. The class of [[1,2],[3,4,5]] consists of all elements having a 2-cycle and a 3-cycle.
The reason for this should now be obvious. To get from [[1,2],[3,4,5]] to [[a,b],[c,d,e]], you just need to find the permutation that sends 1 to a, 2 to b, 3 to c, 4 to d, and 5 to e. Since S 5 contains all permutations of [1..5], this permutation must be among them.
Hope that all made sense.

I really thought I was not going to make it in time! I was starting to get a little
So I decided a self intervention was in order and I bought some gifts - yup clutch your pearls ladies, I didn't shop on Etsy either but hit the department stores -gasp!
Rest assured though, there also will be plenty of handmade under the tree this year ;-)
I am torn between wanting to show off what I have made and knowing my lovelies do occasionally glance over my blog. So I am opting for tiny sneak peeks as not to spoil too much of the surprise.
Last warning, if you are on my list this Christmas click away now!
There will be a few of these,
another one done,
and a few of these

Andrey Esionov - Interview
How did you come to watercolors?
Six years of study in Republican specialized music and art boarding school, specialty graphic artist, six years of study in Tashkent Ostrovsky `s State Theatre and Art Institute on poster department, at both Alma Mater the subject of the painting at the department of graphic was taught only in watercolor. So this is how I came, but first not to the watercolors, but via watercolor to oil. At the end of training I shifted to easel painting. I returned to watercolors 5 years ago.
Andrey Esionov
How do you select a subject?
The plot is built according to requirements of a classical composition, ie, I select a theme and I work through searches, sketches, sometimes trial washes. The work includes preliminary sketches without fail, if we talk about watercolors based on complex composition.
Andrey Esionov
Which colors in the palette are necessary for you?
Currently, no more than 12 colors: cadmium red, kraplak, ocher, iron oxide,
yellow, cadmium yellow, umber, blue, ultramarine, indigo, yellow-green and
black. Naples
Andrey Esionov
Is there a preference in the choice of paper, paints, brushes?
Paper by any manufacturer of
600 g.
rough. Paints "White Nights" ( ) in pans and any paints by
European production in tubes. Squirrel brushes by any known manufacturer. Russia
How do your individual features are manifested in your watercolors?
If you do not copy off from other artists' works, and stay yourself, your personality manifests as your personal painting style.
Do you think that the easy "incompleteness" only benefit watercolor work?
I do not like the word "incompleteness". If you mean, conscious use of paper white, untouched by paint, why not? If - it does not interfere with the integrity of the picture, or the composition solution, or just intuitively "delicious." If we go on the impressionistic style of writing, so watercolor in my opinion is very thereto.
Andrey Esionov
Full version of the interview read in my new book in series "Masters Of Watercolor" - "On Both Sides of the Great Wall".

You are a beautiful and sexy woman and have the most desirable pussy I have ever seen. What I and my cock would love to do to your body would pleasure us both and your pussy would likely give me the sexiest and most desirable experience I have ever had. I wish I knew you so I could enjoy intimate pleasures with you.
I want to kiss your beautiful eyes, face, ears and neck. I want to fondle your magnificent tits and make your nipples hard, and then I want to satisfy your desirable pussy until we are both so exhausted that we can do no more. After resting for a while and gaining our strength, I want to repeat the process. I don't know if I have ever seen a woman as sexually desirable as you.
It would be difficult to find a woman sexier and more fuckable than this gorgeous beauty with a very desirable body and fuckable pussy. I want to satisfy you on a regular basis so we can both have great sex.
I am jerking off
Any girl want fuck
Shake those titties!

My cock would really enjoy the smoothness of your pussy. I would love to fill that love hole with my man juice as you climax in person. My cock knows you would be a delightful fuck.

It's spring and if you're looking for a way to add a little color indoors, ceramics is the answer.
It's spring and if you're looking for a way to add a little color indoors, ceramics is the answer. This piece brings the beauty of an early spring flower and a beautiful butterfly to life. As a bonus, you can choose colors to complement your decor. I love the changing of the seasons. You can see Nature's reactions to the warmer temperatures in the spring and the bonus of an added hour of daylight in the evening means we are ready to get started with those outdoor activities. But until spring is really and truly here, let's paint something happy. And this piece is sure to bring some warmth to your home over the long months of next winter.Nature Rock—Nature Is The Are Of God

U.S. and Hong Kong Trade Agreement, Cargill Beef Rebounding
- The U.S. and Hong Kong, the fourth largest market for U.S. beef and beef product exports, have agreed on new terms and conditions that will help expand U.S. beef and beef product exports.
Effective Tuesday, Hong Kong will permit the import of the full range of U.S. beef and beef products as the World Organization for Animal Health granted the U.S. negligible risk status for BSE last year.
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack says this is great news for American ranchers and beef companies as the USDA looks forward to expanded opportunities in Hong Kong for the U.S. beef industry since all trade restrictions are now lifted.
- Beef Products Incorporated and Cargill say their sales of lean finely textured beef have started to rebound after about two-years since public backlash from critics labeling it as pink slime.
Cargill Director of Communications Mike Martin says the company has about 400 customers for lean finely textured beef which is more than it had before the controversy in 2012, but he says the amount of product they are purchasing is much less than before.

FRISCO, Colo.—Authorities say a 20-year-old man has been found dead in the Blue River near Breckenridge.
Summit County Coroner Tim Keeling says the body was found early Saturday. He declined to release any details about the circumstances of the death "because of the sensitivity of this particular incident."
Keeling tells The Summit Daily News ( http://bit.ly/12eifBS) the man's family has been notified of the death.

Today is Repeal Day, which as most of you know is the holiday celebrating the ratification of the 21st Amendment and the end of Prohibition. To mark the occasion, Reason has put together an interesting video on the "The Man in the Green Hat," Congress's very own bootlegger:
Also of interest: This trailer for Breaking the Taboo, a new documentary narrated by Morgan Freeman about the failure of the War on Drugs:
On a similar note, outgoing Mexican president Felipe Calderón spoke to The Economist about the Drug War and its devastating effects in his country:
"[E]ither the United States and its society, its government and its congress decide to drastically reduce their consumption of drugs, or if they are not going to reduce it they at least have the moral responsibility to reduce the flow of money towards Mexico, which goes into the hands of criminals. They have to explore even market mechanisms to see if that can allow the flow of money to reduce.
"If they want to take all the drugs they want, as far as I'm concerned let them take them. I don't agree with it but it's their decision, as consumers and as a society. What I do not accept is that they continue passing their money to the hands of killers."
Finally, here's an essay I wrote for The American Spectator on the 75th Anniversary of Repeal Day.

In the course of his professional life in the world of national security Edward Snowden must have gone through numerous probing interviews, lie detector examinations, and exceedingly detailed background checks, as well as filling out endless forms carefully designed to catch any kind of falsehood or inconsistency. The Washington Post(June 10) reported that "several officials said the CIA will now undoubtedly begin reviewing the process by which Snowden may have been hired, seeking to determine whether there were any missed signs that he might one day betray national secrets."
Edward Snowden.Yes, there was a sign they missed – Edward Snowden had something inside him shaped like a conscience, just waiting for a cause. It was the same with me. I went to work at the State Department, planning to become a Foreign Service Officer, with the best – the most patriotic – of intentions, going to do my best to slay the beast of the International Communist Conspiracy. But then the horror, on a daily basis, of what the United States was doing to the people of Vietnam was brought home to me in every form of media; it was making me sick at heart.
My conscience had found its cause, and nothing that I could have been asked in a pre-employment interview would have alerted my interrogators of the possible danger I posed because I didn't know of the danger myself. No questioning of my friends and relatives could have turned up the slightest hint of the radical anti-war activist I was to become. My friends and relatives were to be as surprised as I was to be. There was simply no way for the State Department security office to know that I should not be hired and given a Secret Clearance.
So what is a poor National Security State to do? Well, they might consider behaving themselves. Stop doing all the terrible things that grieve people like me and Edward Snowden and Bradley Manning and so many others. Stop the bombings, the invasions, the endless wars, the torture, the sanctions, the overthrows, the support of dictatorships, the unmitigated support of Israel; stop all the things that make the United States so hated, that create all the anti-American terrorists, that compel the National Security State – in pure self defence – to spy on the entire world.
Eavesdropping on the planet
The above is the title of an essay that I wrote in 2000 that appeared as a chapter in my book Rogue State: A Guide to the World's Only Superpower. Here are some excerpts that may help to put the current revelations surrounding Edward Snowden into perspective …..

Very informative, but extremely biased. For the uninformed reader, it gives them a strongly misleading view of the religion of Islam where the writer seems to be subliminally equating Islam to be exclusive to Arabs, thus as an Arab religion. Though he never actually used the term, Arab, he made it perfectly clear in my mind whom he was referring to in describing the lighter complected Africans who were Islamic disciples.

Schaefer says his children bought him a bike for Christmas four years ago, but he wasn't sure he'd use it.
A southern Minnesota man has turned his passion for biking into a part-time job. And at age 86, Bud Schaefer (SHAH'-fer) just might be the region's oldest "paperboy."Schaefer says his children bought him a bike for Christmas four years ago, but he wasn't sure he'd use it. Instead, the great-grandfather embraced biking, wore out at least one set of tires and even began earning some pocket change while tooling around Adams. Schaefer straps 37 Post-Bulletin newspapers in his bike basket each afternoon and makes his deliveries.Larry Croker greets Schaefer in his driveway. Croker tells KARE-TV (http://kare11.tv/Vw5ySY ) he's never had an older paperboy — or one that's been so dependable. When the winter snow starts piling up, Schaefer will use his vehicle to make his deliveries and then head to his basement where he rides his stationary bike.

Is The CIA Hosting A Wikileaks Mirror? [Updated]
from the honeypot-or-not? dept
But, perhaps more interesting is a comment on the thread, which notes that it appears at least one of the Wikileaks mirrors appears to be hosted by the CIA, or at the very least a company associated with the CIA using (for a time) a CIA netblock. The address, wikileaks.psytek.net no longer appears to be hosting anything (right now it just leads you to a standard Apache install page that says "It works!"). There's an interesting discussion in the Reddit comments over what this means -- ranging from everything to someone suggesting this is just a joke, to the "honeypot" question, to the one that seems most plausible to me: as a mirror that is quickly updated as Wikileaks puts up new documents, it allows the CIA to get access to what's being released as quickly as possible. Updated: And, as noted in the comments, it appears the answer is "no." Or, at least, if it is, it ain't this particular site.

ADEPT 2.0 First-Time User Guide
03 Mar 2011 | | Contributor(s):: Xufeng Wang
This first-time user guide provides a basic walk-through on how to run the ADEPT simulation tool.


text: Furious muscle toddler Chris Brown performed at this weekend's Billboard Music Awards (A.K.A. the Oscars of "No One Gives a Fuck"), although, on second thought, the word "performed" might be slightly misleading — what he really did was ride around on a child's bicycle then halfheartedly lip-sync his new single "Turn Up the Music," while occasionally pointing to his abdominal muscles. I can almost almost wrap my mind around the whole "love the art, hate the artist" thing, but what do you do when the art is as shitty as the person who created it?


text: Going in against an Olathe East team that was five points from being undefeated, Leavenworth needed to do all the little things right to have a chance for a second straight upset. The opposite transpired: Leavenworth matched East in the big things, like running the ball and playing good defense. But they got killed in the little things department, incurring untimely penalties, falling for trick plays, and getting beat in special teams. At the end of the first half, the Pioneers trailed 18-0. Had a few little things gone differently, Leavenworth might've actually led. They were able to fight back in the third quarter and pull within five, but East erased their gains late and ended up with a 31-13 win. "I'm disappointed for our kids because I thought they came out and gave a great effort," said Leavenworth head coach Mark Littrell. "Olathe East is a good team, and they had to fight for everything they got tonight." Leavenworth's defense held East's offense mostly in check. But at multiple points when the defense had backed East into a corner, Hawks coach Jeff Meyers opened his bag of tricks, and his players executed. There was a deftly executed fake punt in the second quarter that went for a 57-yard score and put East up 11-0. Later, on a crucial drive in the fourth quarter and East's lead down to just five, Meyers again went to the back pages of the playbook with a fake reverse wheel route that went for a score and stifled Leavenworth's momentum after they had cut it to a five-point game. On Leavenworth's first play of their next drive, they fumbled, giving East a short field and icing the game. Aside from trick plays, the other thing Leavenworth got burned on was the whistle. The offensive line was hit with numerous holding penalties that put the offense in long-yardage situations. But the most costly penalty came in with just under two minutes left in the first half and the score 11-0. The Pioneers defense had stuffed East deep in their own territory, setting up a punting situation and a fantastic opportunity for Leavenworth to avenge earlier mistakes and go into halftime with the momentum. East's punter shanked the kick, and it appeared Leavenworth would start inside their opponent's 40. But a late flag was thrown – personal foul for knocking down the center – giving East a first down. The Hawks would march down the field, score a touchdown with seconds left, and go into halftime up three scores. Littrell says the refs blew the call, explaining that once the center goes downfield and starts blocking, he's no longer protected. All together, the trick plays and penalties put the Pioneers behind the eight ball early against a team they couldn't afford to make mistakes against. Aside from those two things, the underdog Pioneers matched the Hawks pound-for-pound. Leavenworth, now 2-4, enters district play beginning next Friday verses Lawrence. Wyandotte and Lawrence Free State round out Leavenworth's district. The four teams will play each other round-robin, with the top two teams advancing to the playoffs. Game Notes: - Blowing strong from south to north, the wind was a factor. Landry Hodges couldn't get the feel on his deep ball for much of the night, throwing it short when going against the wind, and overthrowing when he had the wind at his back. - Olathe East's student section was loud, sizable, and very pink. Doing a 'pink-out' for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, they'd drum the bleachers by jumping up and down in unison to pump up the defense. .

Turnaround Merry-go-round: Is the music stopping?
In November 2012, the U.S. Department of Education released an analysis of the federal School Improvement Grants program, which invests in persistently underperforming schools with the expectation that they will turn around. The early results of its most recent $3-billion infusion, as described by Education Week: "mixed" (http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/campaign-k-12/2012/11/initial_school_impr...). Two-thirds of the schools made gains in math or reading scores, but the other third saw achievement decline. Program supporters contend that one year of data is not enough to draw conclusions about the program. Critics ask whether taxpayers should expend a single cent more on what they deem a failed experiment.
Who's right? The Fordham Institute is bringing together three leading voices on urban schooling for a debate on the future of turnarounds: Bellwether Education and Fordham edu-wonk Andy Smarick; the Department of Education's Carmel Martin; and former Chicago schools CEO Jean-Claude Brizard.

Nice to see Caputi getting on the scoreboard more regularly. I hope it continues. He's a guy that could earn an NHL spot too next season with a good camp and could be a cheap Fedotenko replacement. A big key for the Pens getting over their cap crunch in the coming years will be getting cheap production from these type of guys (Kennedy's another example, although he came up last year obviously).
bill from turtle creek wrote:No real need to replace Ziggy with Jeffery, since Ziggy is going to come cheaply anyhow. A guy like him is not going to much above the minimum, most likely, and I'm guessing that given his important role with the Pens, he isn't likely to go elsewhere and roll the dice.

About six or seven years ago, my wacky group of Bay Area friends played a game. But first, let me tell you a few things you might not know, because a) some of you never dated online and b) things may have changed in the last five years.
Thing you need to know Part One:
In the early part of the last decade, online dating was still relatively new. Among other novelties, men and women were just figuring out how to take pictures of themselves and post them online. Remember, in 2002 no one was using Facebook or Twitter. Waaaaaaaaay back then, you had to jump through a few hoops to get the picture you took (with your digital camera, not your phone) on to the computer and actually "viewable."
Thing you need to know Part Two:
For most people living in San Francisco circa 2005, Craigslist served as the Origin of Everything. Everything. Every apartment, job, community activity, pet, furnishing, event, laugh, or friend you could hope to get, have, give or make came from Craigslist.
All of my first SF friends, my first SF jobs (which led to my later jobs, including the friendship I have with one of my current business partners), my SF apartments, my a cappella group, and, yes, MY HUSBAND, came from Craigslist. In fact, some of you are reading this blog because of CL.
{I have thanked @craignewmark on Twitter many times for all that he's indirectly given to me.}
Thing you need to know Part Three:
Some people treat (or at least treatED) Craigslist like the Wild West. And for my friends and I who would sometimes use CL to meet people FOR TO ACTUALLY DATE, we always found it disconcerting when men would reply to earnest, well-crafted, thoughtful, funny personal ads with pictures of their genitalia. Which happened every time.
Yes. Every. Time.
Actually, I once wrote a post about some of the most disconcerting personal ad replies I received, all of which are true and verbatim.
No matter what the personal ad was about, I would receive at least one picture of a penis. Occasionally the man's headless body would be attached to the penis, but the penis was always center stage.
Why? I never understood this. Even if I were looking for meaningless sex, which I very clearly was not, a body-less penis is not enticing. Beyond "rapport" and "chemistry," I can't imagine ever, ever wanting to have sex with a man based solely on what his junk looks like.
I mentioned this phenomenon to my friends, and it turns out that I am not special. Men LOVE sending pictures of their penises to online women! It happens all the time! (Rep. Weiner is totally late to the game.)
So we decided to have some fun. Enter The Penis Picture Game.
We -- my friends and I -- decided to host a contest, to see who could receive the greatest number of UNSOLICITED penis pictures in a certain amount of time (it was something like 48 hours).
The rules went something like this:
1. You post an ad ANYWHERE in the terrifying forest of Craigslist personals. I think we all selected to post in "Casual Encounters." Because duh.
2. Your ad would obviously be made up. You could tell any story you wanted. The key was to try to think like a man (OR HOUSE REPRESENTATIVE, WHATEVER) who would want to send you a picture of his penis as enticement. What would be the most compelling? What personal ad says "please send me a picture of your ding dong"?
3. Your ad could not explicitly ask for photos of any kind.
4. All photos of naked penises would be counted, whether disembodied, on headless naked men, or on full pictures (v. rare!). Photoshopped pictures were certainly allowed, and the most amusing by far.
It was totally, totally fun. The ads went up and the photos poured in.
Now, I can't remember all the details, but tallying up the photos was hilarious. Our winner received over 20 pictures. Many of us received the same pictures, and some of us received the same pictures from different men, meaning either the men were posting under different names, or using the same database of fake penis pictures, which is the SADDEST THING EVER.
:::PAUSE:::Stop. Think. What personal ad would YOU post to garner the most unsolicited penis pictures? What topic do you think won our contest?
I had high hopes for my post -- something about a bored housewife looking for action while her husband was out of town -- but alas. My idea was either too trite, or maybe married men were a little more nervous to send penis photos? Who's to say. I was not a winner.
The winner was my friend Justin, who smartly made up a post about a collegiate girl who was embarrassed to still be a virgin, and was looking for a meaningless tryst to get her first time out of the way.
Right? Virgins. Gets 'em every time.
HILARIOUSLY MISGUIDED CONCLUSION: Men who are inclined to send penis pictures -- real or imaginary -- over the internet think virgins are the most eager recipients.
I don't know what to do with this sensitive and highly scientific data, but there it is. And if for some reason you are a man who wants to send penis pictures over the internet and you are reading this, please know:
1. No virgin is posting a casual encounter ad on Craigslist, unless she is a he, which you will discover eventually.
2. Of ALL the things a virgin wants to see in her inbox, a picture of a naked penis is not among them. No, it is not. No. Just, no.
While discussing our results, we decided we needed to add categories. "MOST" was clearly the winner overall, but we added special distinctions -- honorable mentions, if you will -- for Most Photoshopped, Most Frequently Sent, Saddest, Best Looking, and, well, Blurriest.
The end.

lol!! Its the strangest thing though since I usually go walking around at night I have to admit it was the first time I felt so uncomfortable about it but I do see a relevance in your point
I would be a little more freaked about the threat of the living walking down the road at night than any spirits. It's nice to know you made it back okay.
I think at first the little peculiarities (feelings of being watched) was just amplified by the fact that it was an impromptu late trip the the store and every little thing from then on fed your fear.
I've had those same fear driven epsiodes. I would have been sprinting back home, forget the chips. Make toast!
Usually when I'm out on my walks theres someone at home with my grandma
so I'm figuring that the discomfort I had was much to do with leaving her alone for even a few minutes. (at least thats what ive decided upon to have a bit more control over that situation )
Axman I wish I had an emf detector but youve given me a very good idea because I do have a small handheld compass...If I'm not mistaken I've read that they'll go a little haywire when electromagnetic fields are being disrupted
(And ghosts can do the same thing I think?)
Ill follow your suggestion and take some notes to see what I come up with.

France arrests suspect in 3 Paris shootings
PARIS -- After a two-day nationwide manhunt, French police arrested a man Wednesday night suspected of shooting a newspaper assistant photographer and three other attacks.
The motive for the attacks remains unclear.
Interior Minister Manuel Valls identified the suspect as Abdelhakim Dekhar, convicted in 1998 as an accomplice in a high-profile 1994 robbery and car chase that left three police officers and a taxi driver dead. Dekhar served four years in prison in the so-called Rey-Maupin affair but authorities had no trace of him in recent years, Valls said.
Based on DNA data, authorities believe he was the lone gunman behind Monday's shooting at the prominent daily newspaper Liberation, a shooting outside French bank Societe Generale, a brief hostage-taking in which the suspect hijacked a car, and a similar shooting incident three days before at news network BFM-TV.
The shooting prompted cries of concern about attacks on the media. Security was tightened at media offices and on the busy Champs-Elysees shopping avenue.
Dekhar apparently tried to kill himself before he was arrested Wednesday, Valls told reporters early Thursday.
Agnes Thibault-Lecuivre, a spokeswoman for the French prosecutor's office, said the suspect was arrested in an underground parking lot in Bois-Colombes, 6 miles north of Paris. She and police union official Christophe Crepin said the man appeared heavily medicated when he was detained.
"My colleagues noticed he was not very lucid. They deduced that he had taken medicines, because of the capsules nearby. They called the ambulance, which brought him to the hospital. There he is incarcerated but in a medical environment," Crepin told The Associated Press.
Dekhar was found after a witness reported to police that a suspect resembling images broadcast on national television since Monday had stayed at his house in recent days, said Paris judicial police chief Christian Flaesch.
Authorities had released video footage and photos of the shooter, who was wielding a pump-action shotgun in the attacks on Liberation and BFM.
The gunman entered the lobby of Liberation around 10 a.m. Monday and opened fire. A 23-year-old photographer, who works at the paper as a freelance assistant, was in intensive care after being shot near the heart and in the arm. Valls said he visited the photographer Wednesday and he's "doing better."
Soon after the shooting at Liberation, three shots were fired in front of the headquarters of the bank Societe Generale in the Paris suburb of La Defense. No one was hurt.
Less than an hour later, a man called police to say he had been taken hostage by a gunman in the town of Puteaux, next door to La Defense. Police said the gunman forced his hostage to drive 3 1/2 miles back toward central Paris, then let him go on the Champs-Elysees.
Three days before at BFM-TV, an armed man threatened journalists with a shotgun in the news network's lobby before fleeing.
He left behind unused cartridges, and told witnesses, "Next time, I won't miss," according to authorities. It was unclear whether the gunman's weapon malfunctioned or whether he chose not to shoot.

What does a Medical Representative Do? Click here to take a look at the Latest Medical Sales jobs. A medical representative is employed by a pharmaceutical company to maximise the prescribing of that pharmaceutical company's products in a geographical area. There are no strict formulae for how to maximise product prescribing - hard work is only part of the story and often working smarter is the key to success. This is why pharmaceutical companies are constantly looking for candidates who have the ability to think (and then put into practice) new ways of approaching sales opportunities. As an experienced representative you will know your territory, know your customers and have a clear idea which part of your territory offers the highest potential for sales. You set yourself clear objectives for every day that you work and will know exactly what you want to achieve from each customer visit. The traditional work pattern for a non-specialist medical representative is to spend the morning in 1:1 meetings with GP's and Practice Nurses. You may need to have booked an appointment for these meetings or you may be able to see the GP "On Spec" ie. if they are not too busy. At lunchtime you may have booked a meeting with a group of GP's/Practice Nurses or Hospital Doctors, where you will make a promotional presentation about your products and provide lunch. In the afternoons you will call on hospital doctors to try and persuade them to use your products. In addition you will call on local chemist shops where you will try to get information on the prescribing habits of the local GP's. This information should help you plan and set yourself objectives for future sales visits to those GP's. Finally, when all the selling is over, you will record all the information you have gathered regarding your sales calls and then plan for your next visits. Training Training is an essential ingredient to becoming successful in any field. Pharmaceutical sales is no exception and you will receive a comprehensive initial training programme. This comprises 3 areas:
Following on from this initial training you will receive comprehensive ongoing training, culminating in sitting the ABPI (Association of British Pharmaceutical Companies) exam within 2 years of starting work as a medical representative. Click here for more details on the exam. Career Development Pharmaceutical sales representatives receive one of the best initial and ongoing training programmes found in any industry. Future career opportunities are therefore not restricted exclusively to the pharmaceutical or healthcare industries as your skills will be sought after in other areas. However, to maximise the value of the experience that you have acquired during your time in medical sales there are several career paths to consider where you will be able to use this experience directly.
