Linebacker Myles Jack Placed on Injured Reserve
John Shipley
The Jacksonville Jaguars defense has had a rough year in 2019, and it appears the hits are going to keep coming. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Thursday morning that Myles Jack, Jacksonville's starting middle linebacker, would be placed on injured reserve with a knee injury.
The team later officially announced Jack would land on injured reserve and practice squad linebacker Joe Giles-Harris would take his place on the active roster.
Jack has not practiced as a full participant since Week 13 began, and he missed several snaps in a Week 12 loss to the Tennessee Titans after getting injured. Jack missed the first game of his career in Week 13, sitting out vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Third-year linebacker Donald Payne took his spot at middle linebacker and wore the green dot for the defense, thus serving as its primary communicator.
Before this knee injury, Jack had been an iron man of sorts for the Jaguars since being selected with their second-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, playing in each of the first 59 games of his career.
Jack started his career with Jacksonville as a strongside linebacker before becoming the team's inside linebacker in nickel situations in 2017 and then finally the full-time inside linebacker in 2018. He has started 27 games at inside linebacker since the 2018 season began.
Before the first week of the 2019 season, Jacksonville inked Jack to a contract extension, making him one of the highest-paid inside linebackers in the NFL. The four-year contract was worth $57 million with $33 million in guaranteed money.
Since signing the contract, Jack, a defensive captain, has had an up and down season. He was ejected in the first half of the team's Week 1 loss vs. the Kansas City Chiefs for fighting and has since turned in several inconsistent performances, contributing to Jacksonville's defense becoming one of the worst vs. the run in the NFL.
Jack totaled 66 tackles and three tackles for loss in 2019, along with an interception, four pass deflections and 0.5 sacks.
Jack joins Jacksonville's top reserve linebacker Najee Goode on injured reserve, resulting in a depleted linebacker group for the Jaguars. Payne and rookie linebacker Quincy Williams are the expected starters moving forward.

Cynn becomes WSOP Hold em winner with $8.8 million prize
Angeline Everett
As France celebrates winning 2018 World Cup Gold, and Novak Djokovic seals his fourth Wimbledon title, in the U.S., a new World Series of Poker Champion is crowned.
On Sunday, John Cynn went head to head against Tony Miles in a record-breaking ten-hour marathon session at the final table of poker's most prestigious tournament at the Rio All-Suite Hotel Casino in Las Vegas.
This year's World Series of Poker $10,000 No-Limit Texas Hold 'Em Main Event, drew over 7,800 poker players from all over the world, and was witnessed by millions of eager fans online.
This year marked the 49th year of the history of the tournament, with experts claiming it to be the largest ever. Tournament participants risked the $10,000 buy-in to play, with some players managing to establish lower buy-ins through associated satellite competitions.
High cards and big pots
The two finalists, Cynn and Miles, played nearly 200 hands against the other, but it was Cynn's final king of clubs and jack clubs, which gave him the better hand for the win against Miles's queen of clubs and eight of hearts. Miles proceeded to go "all-in", and the river came up king of hearts, king of diamonds, five of hearts, eight of diamonds and four of spades.
Surrounded by a cheering crowd, the 33-year-old Cynn pulled off a miraculous win, and took home a whopping $8.8 million in prize money and a WSOP champion bracelet.
"Right now, I do feel pretty overwhelmed," said Cynn. "The money is very significant, but I do like to think that I don't need the money to be happy, but at the same time, practically, it's going to make things a lot easier, things I want to do in life."
Miles did not walk away empty-handed however, and was able to leave the final table with $5 million. Michael Dyer came in third place and won $3.75 million in prize money.
The total nine finalists were each guaranteed at least $1 million, and respectively represented the US, Australia, France and Ukraine.
All the way to the grand stage
Cynn, an Illinois native, is not new to the WSOP scene. He had placed well and cashed-out in a series of poker tournaments prior, but without question, this WSOP finish is the biggest win of his career.
Although last night's Main Event was Cynn's biggest professional poker win, it was not his first WSOP tournament. Just two years ago, he managed to place 11th at the WSOP Hold 'Em Main Event, winning $650,000.
Both Miles and Cynn had played phenomenally well throughout the tournament, and Miles even managed to bluff Cynn off the better hand earlier during their marathon session.
Cynn took about three minutes before folding, despite having the statistically better hand. The broadcast revealed he had two pair, with a pair of threes on the board.
However, the roles were reversed as Miles lost after Cynn called his bluff after going "all in" on the final hand.
Dramatic finish
Cynn reached the final table with the second-most chips of $128.7 million against Miles's 238.9 million chip lead, the highest recorded for a WSOP Main Event.
With the win, Cynn now joins the ranks of poker greats like Amarillo Slim and Stu Ungar with his new WSOP Main Event Winner bracelet, and after a grueling 10 days of play, can rest easy knowing that he has a little extra "pocket money".
With his father as one of the many spectators in attendance, Cynn grabbed his head in disbelief as the winning hand was announced, while a teary Miles congratulated Cynn, hugged supporters, thanked them and left the stage.
Cynn told reporters that his winnings will be "life-changing", but he does not have any immediate plans to spend it as of yet.

The Southern Miss Golden Eagles and Kansas State Wildcats meet Wednesday in college basketball action at the Bramlage Coliseum.
The Southern Miss Golden Eagles look for a statement victory after winning four of their last six games. The Southern Miss Golden Eagles are averaging 67 points on 43.8 percent shooting and allowing 64.5 points on 40.4 percent shooting. Cortez Edwards is averaging 14.2 points and 3.1 assists while Tyree Griffin is averaging 13.6 points and 4.1 rebounds. Dominic Magee is the third double-digit scorer and LaDavius Draine is grabbing 3.5 rebounds. The Southern Miss Golden Eagles are shooting 36.6 percent from beyond the arc and 60.4 percent from the free throw line. The Southern Miss Golden Eagles are allowing 32.7 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 29.8 rebounds per game. The Southern Miss Golden Eagles have won two of their last three home games.
The Kansas State Wildcats need a bounce back win after splitting their last four games. The Kansas State Wildcats are averaging 69.6 points on 43.7 percent shooting and allowing 58.6 points on 40.1 percent shooting. Barry Brown is averaging 14.2 points and four rebounds while Dean Wade is averaging 13.6 points and 3.2 assists. Xavier Sneed is the third double-digit scorer and Kamau Stokes is grabbing three rebounds. The Kansas State Wildcats are shooting 30.9 percent from beyond the arc and 66.3 percent from the free throw line. The Kansas State Wildcats are allowing 28 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 34.2 rebounds per game. The Kansas State Wildcats have won all four home games this season.
The Golden Eagles are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 road games. The Wildcats are 7-15 ATS in their last 22 non-conference games, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 Wednesday games. The over is 5-2 in Golden Eagles last 7 road games. The under is 9-4 in Wildcats last 13 overall.
The Kansas State Wildcats continue to have trouble scoring, and they're shooting just 42.9 percent from the field in their last five games. The Southern Miss Golden Eagles are a battle tested team that just took Wichita State down to the wire and beat SMU on the road. Southern Miss is a balanced basketball team that's top-100 in field goal percentage and top-30 in points allowed. The Golden Eagles are no pushovers. With the way Kansas State has struggled a bit the last couple of weeks, the points with the road team is worth a look.

You've been hearing a lot about our recent trip to Uganda, and we're not through yet! In addition to working with Hackers for Charity, connecting schools around Jinja, and wirelessly controlling underwater robots, we wanted to explore the IoT side of the BRCK, too.
A number of people we're working with are keen on using BRCKs to remotely connect sensors and other objects to feed data back over the internet. Some of the uses we get most excited about are around conservation, ranging from tracking vultures to locate poaching kills to remote weather stations in the savannah.
Two projects we know of, Into the Okavango (http://intotheokavango.org) and the Mara Project (http://mara.yale.edu ; http://mamase.unesco-ihe.org), are deploying networks of sensors to monitor entire ecosystems. By tracking water quality throughout the Okavango Delta in Botswana and the Maasai Mara in Kenya, each hopes to improve our understanding of these fragile environments, and by publicly posting the data (as well as pictures of their own expeditions) on their websites, they hope to inspire further appreciation amongst those who may never get a chance to visit these amazing places in person.
When we first started talking about going to Uganda, home to the source of the White Nile flowing out of Lake Victoria, we knew we had to find a way to get out on the river and try our hand at collecting environmental data via the BRCK ourselves. It just so happens that Paul, one of the expedition team members, was a river guide for seven years in Colorado before coming to Kenya, and had found out about an expedition being planned by Pete Meredith down the Karuma to Murchison Falls stretch of the Nile.
This stretch is home to the largest concentrations of hippos and crocodiles anywhere on the Nile, and has been rafted less than 10 times in history, only once commercially. It's home to some of the biggest, most terrifying whitewater in Uganda – a country known for big, terrifying whitewater. Uganda is also a country that is industrializing fast, with hydroelectric power stations playing a key role in meeting fast growing energy demand.
All these new dams mean that rivers in their natural flow are disappearing quickly. The Bujagali Dam near Jinja covered 388 hectares in reservoir, flooding several miles of pristine whitewater. A new dam under construction near Karuma threatens to seriously affect the wildlife that concentrate downstream, and the Murchison stretch may no longer be runnable after 2018. With almost 85% of Uganda's population unable to access electricity, the case against building more dams is hardly clear cut, but it does mean the time to learn from, share, and experience some of the most unique ecosystems along the Nile is running out.
As a team of gadget-headed engineers, we figured a good first step would be to have an affordable, reliable platform for collecting and disseminating information about these ecosystems. While the BRCK itself runs on an Arduino compatible microprocessor, we included a blank AVR chip with direct access to the pins through a dedicated GPIO port on the back. In Jinja, our lead RF engineer Jackie quickly soldered up a pH and temperature sensor kit to a GPIO MRTR, and off we went.
Instead, we opted to run the 30 or so kilometers of the Nile north of Jinja with Nalubale Rafting. Our goal was to get far enough away from "civilization" to test both the BRCK's connectivity and the GPIO setup. The first day on the water, we hit five major Class IV/V rapids, including a three-meter tall, nearly vertical drop.
Along the way, we plugged in our MRTR and dipped our sensors into the water. Not being hydrological engineers ourselves, we weren't quite sure what to do with any data we might collect, but we did learn some valuable design lessons around using the BRCK with the GPIO port (such as the need for a tighter connection between the MRTR case and the BRCK's body). Ultimately, the hardware worked great, but some work remains on the software side to view our data on the web. We'll be working on these tweaks and incorporating them, along with a means to visualize data fed through the port, into future updates.
After a hard day of paddling (and no small amount of swimming, only some of which was involuntary) we found ourselves at our campsite overlooking the river. It's hard to imagine what this place will be like in 10 years. There's nothing quite like eating dinner around the campfire, away from the constantly connected buzz of the city to make you appreciate the stillness of the wild.
As an expedition tech company, believe me, we get the irony. We still believe sharing these places before they disappear is the best chance we have for preserving them. There are far too many people who will never get to raft the source of the Nile, but we hope we can build a platform through which many more can experience it, if only vicariously.

How did Steven Schmidt become the Charlie Manson of Ceres?
Steven Schmidt - photo by Contributed to the Courier
Southern California had Charlie Manson.
Ceres had Steven Lawrence Schmidt.
That's the summation of an Idaho writer who is researching material for a book on one of the worst people to ever call Ceres home.
When author Dewey Treat contacted me inquiring about past Courier articles on Schmidt, I remembered the name. He was the career criminal who on Feb. 26, 1998 was trying to break into a duplex at 2714 Whitmore Avenue with accomplice Kenneth Michael Duckett. Officers Howie Stevenson and Trenton Johnson responded to a call placed by a resident reporting someone trying to break into his residence. Duckett, 28, was killed when he charged officers with a knife and reached for a waistband gun and was shot.
Schmidt was arrested by Officer Greg Yotsuya after he tried to escape by jumping the fence into the backyard of a Casa Verde residence. Schmidt was found with two hand guns, a machete and several knives. Based on how heavily armed the two men were, police believe Schmidt and Duckett had a mission to kill the occupant.
Schmidt was 48 years old when his days as a criminal nightmare came to an end. He was sentenced the following year under the Three Strikes law and is today in Folsom Prison.
"It seems that the more I learn of this person, the more I tend to shake my head in disbelief," said Treat.
Treat knew about Schmidt since he was born and raised in Ceres where he attended Walter White Elementary School and graduated from Ceres High in 1963. Dewey's mother, Edna Treat, used to work at Hendy's Drive-In on the old 99 Highway at Fourth Street/Hackett Road. A retired construction project manager, Treat moved to Idaho in 1996 and has since taken up writing. A website notes that he is trying to write "a mystery novel that has been bouncing around in my head for years."
The subject, of course, is Schmidt.
Schmidt's evil side apparently was fostered at an earlier age. One well-known resident of Ceres - who shall remain anonymous - told Treat about Schmidt growing up at 2132 Sixth Street. Accounts say Schmidt's mother, Josephine, died in the late 1970s or early 1980s. His father was reportedly not around much and was either a carpenter or an auto mechanic.
Once Schmidt talked a 10-year-old neighbor girl (the daughter of Hendy's Drive-In owner Bill Henderson) to place an apple on her head and he would shoot it off with a bow and arrow. Treat is convinced Schmidt intentionally aimed at her forehead where the arrow struck. Apparently the arrow did not penetrate her skull and the girl escaped serious injury.
We know that in the 1960s, his teen years, Schmidt was abusing drugs. His sister Sally reportedly died of a drug overdose in her early 30s.
Steve Schmidt graduated from Ceres High School in 1966.
The sordid tales abound. Likely a psychopath, Steve was said to have tortured a litter of kittens and setting them on fire. For sport Steve would shoot out neighbors' windows with a B-B gun.
Once he supposedly rolled up next to a carload of teenage girls in the Fosters Freeze parking lot and boldly asked if any of them wanted to have sex, to which one woman volunteered. The woman, now 65, bragged about the incident to Treat.
Things grew far worse. Schmidt was convicted of robbing a Hughson grocery store.
Schmidt was 23 when he was arraigned on May 20, 1973 for the stabbing murder of Thomas L. Guzman, 24, at the family ranch in December of 1972. Blood stains in the home led police to believe the alleged drug dealer - known as "The Rocket Man" - met with foul play. The murder was not revealed until a road grader unearthed his body on April 7, 1973. Schmidt was arrested five days later.
Apparently he didn't serve in prison long enough.
On March 6, 1979 Schmidt was charged with kidnapping, assault with a deadly weapon, attempted robbery and auto theft. Schmidt accosted two ladies, Opal McGathy and Deborah Schooley, at the Silver Saddle Bar (now a store at the southwest corner of Richland and Evans). The two women were abducted at gunpoint but later broke free. Schmidt was arrested at the corner of Glenwood and Beachwood. Charges were dropped against the second suspect, William Wartham, because of insufficient evidence.
Treat said there are indications about Schmidt being involved in or responsible for the death of a transient at the Modesto Municipal Golf Course next to the Modesto Nuts stadium. The victim was stabbed to death with a flag-marker pole.
Seeing how he is still in his research phase, Treat would appreciate any first-hand experiences of persons who grew up or ran around with Schmidt. I can put him in touch with anyone who has some insight for his new book, "Kill The Messenger."
If anything, it's hopeful that someone can shed light on the situation- whether it was bad parenting or drugs or what - that made his life go so terribly wrong.
How do you feel? Let Jeff know at jeffb@cerescourier.com.

US administration admits Iraq 'reconstruction' failed
This video is called Half of Iraq hit by cholera – 04 Oct 2007.
From the New York Times in the USA:
Report Spotlights Iraq Rebuilding Blunders
By JAMES GLANZ and T. CHRISTIAN MILLER
BAGHDAD — An unpublished 513-page federal history of the American-led reconstruction of Iraq depicts an effort crippled before the invasion by Pentagon planners who were hostile to the idea of rebuilding a foreign country, and then molded into a $100 billion failure by bureaucratic turf wars, spiraling violence and ignorance of the basic elements of Iraqi society and infrastructure.
The history, the first official account of its kind, is circulating in draft form here and in Washington among a tight circle of technical reviewers, policy experts and senior officials. It also concludes that when the reconstruction began to lag — particularly in the critical area of rebuilding the Iraqi police and army — the Pentagon simply put out inflated measures of progress to cover up the failures.
In one passage, for example, former Secretary of State Colin L. Powell is quoted as saying that in the months after the 2003 invasion, the Defense Department "kept inventing numbers of Iraqi security forces — the number would jump 20,000 a week! 'We now have 80,000, we now have 100,000, we now have 120,000.' "
Mr. Powell's assertion that the Pentagon inflated the number of competent Iraqi security forces is backed up by Lt. Gen. Ricardo S. Sanchez, the former commander of ground troops in Iraq, and L. Paul Bremer III, the top civilian administrator until an Iraqi government took over in June 2004.
Among the overarching conclusions of the history is that five years after embarking on its largest foreign reconstruction project since the Marshall Plan in Europe after World War II, the United States government has in place neither the policies and technical capacity nor the organizational structure that would be needed to undertake such a program on anything approaching this scale.
The bitterest message of all for the reconstruction program may be the way the history ends. The hard figures on basic services and industrial production compiled for the report reveal that for all the money spent and promises made, the rebuilding effort never did much more than restore what was destroyed during the invasion and the convulsive looting that followed.
By mid-2008, the history says, $117 billion had been spent on the reconstruction of Iraq, including some $50 billion in United States taxpayer money.
The history contains a catalog of revelations that show the chaotic and often poisonous atmosphere prevailing in the reconstruction effort. …
The United States could soon have reason to consult this cautionary tale of deception, waste and poor planning, as troop levels and reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan are likely to be stepped up under the new administration. …
Titled "Hard Lessons: The Iraq Reconstruction Experience," the new history was compiled by the Office of the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction, led by Stuart W. Bowen Jr., a Republican lawyer who regularly travels to Iraq and has a staff of engineers and auditors based here. Copies of several drafts of the history were provided to reporters at The New York Times and ProPublica by two people outside the inspector general's office who have read the draft, but are not authorized to comment publicly. …
On the eve of the invasion, as it began to dawn on a few officials that the price for rebuilding Iraq would be vastly greater than they had been told, the degree of miscalculation was illustrated in an encounter between Donald H. Rumsfeld, then the defense secretary, and Jay Garner, a retired lieutenant general who had hastily been named the chief of what would be a short-lived civilian authority called the Office of Reconstruction and Humanitarian Assistance.
The history records how Mr. Garner presented Mr. Rumsfeld with several rebuilding plans, including one that would include projects across Iraq.
"What do you think that'll cost?" Mr. Rumsfeld asked of the more expansive plan.
"I think it's going to cost billions of dollars," Mr. Garner said.
"My friend," Mr. Rumsfeld replied, "if you think we're going to spend a billion dollars of our money over there, you are sadly mistaken."
In a way he never anticipated, Mr. Rumsfeld turned out to be correct: before that year was out, the United States had appropriated more than $20 billion for the reconstruction, which would indeed involve projects across the entire country. …
The secondary effects of the invasion and its aftermath were among the most important factors that radically changed the outlook. Tables in the history show that measures of things like the national production of electricity and oil, public access to potable water, mobile and landline telephone service and the presence of Iraqi security forces all plummeted by at least 70 percent, and in some cases all the way to zero, in the weeks after the invasion. …
By the time a sovereign Iraqi government took over from the Americans in June 2004, none of those services — with a single exception, mobile phones — had returned to prewar levels.
Some "sovereign Iraqi government", with US guns pointed at their heads in the Baghdad green zone … and spied upon by the Bush administration.
As I wrote before: NO schools, hospitals, etc. were built in Iraq since Bush's March 2003 invasion.
Bush's Iraq war was officially about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
When that turned out to be lies, the Bush administration flip-flopped to talk about 'rebuilding' Iraq, about building houses, schools, hospitals.
Only talk, as the only things built in Iraq, as the US government says, are prisons (apparently, dictator Saddam Hussein had not built enough of those).
Oh yes, and the gigantic new US colonial governor's building embassy in Baghdad (see also here; and here; including photos; and here).
And yes, I got to admit, walls to keep people apart who had been living together for centuries, but were set against each other in Bush's and Blair's 'divide and rule strategy'.

Iraq reconstruction 'faces uncertainty'
Pauline Jelinek
January 30, 2009 – 5:39PM
The often chaotic and wasteful $US125 billion ($A191.75 billion) Iraq rebuilding effort will face new trouble and uncertainty this year despite the decline in violence there, a US military audit report says.
A separate report on Afghanistan said there is no coherent strategy for that country's $US32 billion ($A49.09 billion) reconstruction campaign.
In Iraq, the nation's shifting power base and finances will force fundamental changes in the now nearly six-year-old rebuilding effort, as will questions about security when the United States draws combat forces out of Iraqi cities in the northern summer, said the report released on Friday by the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction Stuart Bowen.
A new agreement governing the American presence in Iraq means US contractors will no longer have immunity from Iraqi laws. That could entice some of them to quit the country when the government finishes writing new rules on contractor licensing, taxes, registration of their firearms and so on, the report said.
Also, the big drop in global oil prices over the past six months has forced Iraqis to trim their budget plans and could have "severe consequences for Iraq reconstruction, fundamentally altering government of Iraq plans to fund large-scale capital improvement projects" themselves, the report said.
The reconstruction effort in Iraq totals $US125 billion ($A191.75 billion), including US funding of $US51 billion ($A78.23 billion); Iraqi funding of about $US58 billion ($A88.97 billion) and international funding of $US17 billion ($A26.08 billion), not all of which has been spent.
For Afghanistan, the United States has appropriated but not fully spent $US32 billion ($A49.09 billion) for humanitarian aid and reconstruction while other nations have contributed $US25.3 billion ($A38.81 billion), said a separate report released late on Thursday by the office of Arnold Fields, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction.
Congress recently approved creation of the new SIGAR audit office, which mirrors the one set up to oversee Iraq reconstruction spending. That office has routinely found glaring examples of fraud and waste in a wide range of projects to provide police stations, schools, improve basic services such as electricity and water and programs to teach Iraqis skills needed for better governance.
Fields has been just getting his work underway in recent months.
"I fear there are major weaknesses in strategy," he said in only his second quarterly report.
Although he said his agency has not yet done an in-depth review, he found in recent trips to Afghanistan "a broad consensus … that reconstruction efforts are fragmented and that existing strategies lack coherence".
He said government officials there want a greater say in the building plan.
Retired Marine Major General Fields said he has finished setting up a permanent office in Kabul and has 30 employees at three Afghan locations.

Commission gets grim report on wartime spending
By RICHARD LARDNER
WASHINGTON (AP) — A new commission examining waste and corruption in wartime contracts is getting a grim report from government watchdogs who say poor planning, weak oversight and greed combined to soak U.S. taxpayers and undermine American forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Stuart Bowen, the special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction, says U.S. taxpayers have paid nearly $51 billion for a wide array of projects in Iraq – from training the Iraqi army and police to rebuilding the country's oil, electric, justice, health and transportation sectors.
Some of these projects succeeded, Bowen informed the Wartime Contracting Commission at its first public hearing, according to his written testimony, but many did not. Violence in Iraq along with constant friction between U.S. officials in Washington and Baghdad were also major factors that undercut progress.
The U.S. government "was neither prepared for nor able to respond quickly to the ever-changing demands" of stabilizing Iraq and then rebuilding it, Bowen said in his written testimony. "For the last six years we have been on a steep learning curve."
A lengthy study by Bowen's office, "Hard Lessons: The Iraq Reconstruction Experience," reviews the problems in an effort the Bush administration initially thought would cost $2.4 billion.
Overall, the Pentagon, State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development have paid contractors more than $100 billion since 2003 for goods and services to support war operations and rebuilding projects in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Congress created the bipartisan panel a year ago over the objections of the Bush White House, which complained the Justice Department might be forced to disclose sensitive information about investigations.
There are 154 open criminal investigations into allegations of bribery, conflicts of interest, defective products, bid rigging and theft stemming from the wars, Thomas Gimble, the Pentagon's principal deputy inspector general, said in his testimony.
Gimble noted that contracting scandals have gone on since the late 1700s when vendors swindled George Washington's army.
"Today, instead of empty barrels of meat, contractors produced inadequate or unusable facilities that required extensive rework," Gimble says. "Like the Continental Forces who encountered fraud, the (Defense Department) also encounters fraud."
Gimble's office found that a small number of inexperienced civilian or military personnel "were assigned far-reaching responsibilities for an unreasonably large number of contracts."
He cites an account tapped frequently by U.S. military commanders in Iraq and Afghanistan to build schools, roads and hospitals. More than $3 billion was spent on these projects, which were not always properly managed.
"In some instances, there appeared to be scant, if any, oversight of the manner in which funds were expended," Gimble says. "Complicating matters further is the fact that payment of bribes and gratuities to government officials is a common business practice in some Southwest Asia nations."
In an advance copy of the "Hard Lessons" report, Bowen says his office found fraud to be less of a problem than persistent inefficiencies and hefty contractor fees that "all contributed to a significant waste of taxpayer dollars."
Styled after the Truman Committee, which examined World War II spending six decades ago, the eight-member panel has broad authority to examine military support contracts, reconstruction projects and private security companies.
The leaders are Mike Thibault, a former deputy director at the Defense Contract Audit Agency, and Grant Green, a former official at both the State and Defense departments.
The panel has until August 2010 to produce a final report. Along the way, it can refer to the Justice Department any violations of the law it finds.
The inspectors general at the State Department and USAID were also testifying at Monday's hearing.

Time To Rebuild This Country
Republicans Who Said Yes to War Spending Now Say No to Job-Creating Investments Here at Home
In the coming days, President Obama will keep his promise to bring a responsible end to the nearly nine-year long Iraq War. This is an important moment for the nation, our men and women in uniform, and for the progressive movement, which fought tirelessly to bring this war to an end.
Our country, however, still faces many urgent challenges — perhaps none more urgent than putting 14 million Americans back to work. As the Iraq War comes to an end, it's time to invest some of the savings to rebuild our own country. Yet, the very same Republican leaders who voted to take us to war and committed more than $800 BILLION to the Iraq War without offsetting any of the costs are now refusing to make investments in this country to put millions of Americans back to work and create an economy that works for everyone — even though these programs are fully paid-for.
Republican Leaders Have Voted for $1 TRILLION in War Spending Since 2002
From the run-up to the Iraq War in the fall of 2002 through 2010, Congress voted to spend more than $1 TRILLION on the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other related costs — including more than $120 BILLION on worthy programs in Iraq and Afghanistan like building roads and schools that are nearly identical to the job-creating investments President Obama and Democrats now want to make in the United States. About four-fifths of this $1 TRILLION in war-related spending — about $800 BILLION — went toward the Iraq War.
Republican leaders in Congress have almost uniformly supported this spending — with the only exceptions coming in 2009 and 2010 after President Obama came into office. For example:
Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) voted for $997 BILLION in war-related spending from 2002-2010.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) voted for for $1.07 TRILLION in war-related spending from 2002-2010.
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA)voted for $997 BILLION in war-related spending from 2002-2010.
Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl (R-AZ) voted for $913 BILLION in war-related spending from 2002-2010.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) voted for $1 TRILLION in war-related spending from 2002-2010.
This spending all went on the national credit card, thanks in no small measure to the 2001 and 2003 Bush tax cuts, whose benefits heavily skewed toward the wealthiest Americans and did nothing to create jobs.
Republican Leaders Refuse to Support Investments Here at Home
In September, President Obama laid out his plan to put millions of Americans back to work: the American Jobs Act. Republican leaders immediately assailed the proposal — citing its cost and its reliance on asking the very wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share.
Speaker Boehner and Majority Leader Cantor have refused to even bring the president's jobs plan to vote in the House of Representatives.
Sens. McConnell, Kyl, and Graham have repeatedly voted against investing here at home to rebuild America and put Americans back to work:
Oct. 11: 100 percent of Senate Republicans voted against millions of American jobs in order to protect the very wealthiest Americans — the top 0.5 percent — from having to pay their fair share.
Oct. 20: 100 percent of Senate Republicans voted against nearly 400,000 jobs for teachers, firefighters, and cops in order to protect the very wealthiest Americans — the top 0.5 percent — from having to pay their fair share.
Nov. 3: 100 percent of Senate Republicans voted against 450,000 Americans jobs rebuilding our crumbling roads, bridges, airports, and other critical infrastructure in order to protect the very wealthiest Americans — the top 0.5 percent — from having to pay their fair share.
Dec. 1: 98 percent of Senate Republicans voted to raise taxes on 160 MILLION working Americans in order to protect just 345,000 millionaires from having to pay their fair share.
Unlike the $1 TRILLION in war-related spending over the past decade, these investments in rebuilding America and putting Americans back to work were entirely paid for by asking the very wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share.
IN TWO SENTENCES: It's time to rebuild this country and put Americans back to work. It's shocking that the same Republican leaders who voted for $1 TRILLION in deficit-financed war spending now refuse to support the fully-paid for investments we need to put Americans back to work and create an economy that works for everyone.

Cethosia biblis, Syn.: Papilio biblis, auch Bortenfalter ist ein Schmetterling aus der Unterfamilie der Passionsblumenfalter (Heliconiinae) innerhalb der Familie der Edelfalter (Nymphalidae). Seinen wissenschaftlichen Namen verdankt er dem Muster auf der Unterseite der Flügel, die wie Schriftzüge aus einem Buch aussehen ("biblis" lat. Buch).

Merkmale

Falter
Die Flügelspannweite der bogig gezahnten Falter beträgt 80 bis 90 Millimeter, oder je nach Quelle, 60 bis 70 Millimeter. Die Unterseite des Vorderflügels ist im inneren Teil orangerot und beinhaltet drei weiß-schwarze Bänder. Der äußere Teil ist orangegelb und weiß-schwarz gefleckt. In der Mitte verläuft eine weiße Binde, die von schwarzen einzelnen Strichen gesäumt wird. Am Flügelrand verläuft eine weiße, gezackte Linie auf einem dunklen Hintergrund. Die Unterseite des Hinterflügels ist im inneren Teil orangerot mit einer gelben Binde welche von schwarzen Strichen gesäumt wird. Der äußere Teil des Flügels ist orangegelb mit weißer Binde und schwarzen Flecken. Am Flügelrand setzt sich die weiße, gezackte Linie auf dunklem Hintergrund des Vorderflügels fort. Oberseits sind die Männchen leuchtend orangerot gefärbt. Auf dem Vorderflügel haben sie hier einen breiten braunen Saum am Flügelrand und weiße V-förmige Abzeichen. Die Flügelspitze ist schwarz und am Rand verläuft eine weiße gezackte Linie die auch auf der Unterseite zu sehen ist. Der Hinterflügel ist  orangebraun bis orangerot und zum Flügelsaum hin schwarz. Auch hier verläuft die charakteristische weiße gezackte Linie am Flügelrand sowie eine Reihe, schwarzer Flecken. Weitere schwarze Flecken befinden sich auch noch im inneren Bereich des Flügels. Die Weibchen sind hingegen deutlich brauner oder olivgrün, oft auch blasser gefärbt. Die grelle Färbung soll potenzielle Fressfeinde abhalten, da die Falter giftig sind.

Ihr Körper ist schlicht schwarz und braun gefärbt.

Raupe
Der Körper der Raupe ist rötlich-schwarz mit weißen Streifen, einem schwarzen Kopf und mit langen schwarzen Giftstacheln besetzt.

Ähnliche Arten
 Cethosia cyane (Drury), 1773
 Cethosia cydippe (Linnaeus), 1767
 Cethosia penthesilea (Cramer), 1777

Verhalten und Lebensweise
In Ruhestellung halten die adulten Falter ihre Flügel über dem Körper geschlossen, sodass man die Namensgebende Unterseite sehen kann. Sie nehmen Nektar von Blüten der Sonnenwenden (Heliotropium), sowie von Wandelröschen (Lantana camara) auf. Ihre Lebenserwartung beträgt mehrere Wochen.

Die Raupen  fressen an Passionsblumen (Passiflora) und Adenia-Gewächsen. Sie leben in Gruppen von 5 bis 6 Individuen zusammen.

Verbreitung und Lebensraum
Das Verbreitungsgebiet der Art erstreckt sich über Indien, Pakistan, Myanmar, sowie China und Malaysia, über Indonesien bis zu den Philippinen. Hier bewohnt sie Waldränder und Lichtungen.

The George Foreman Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machine, also commonly referred to as simply the George Foreman Grill, is a portable double-sided electrically heated grill manufactured by Spectrum Brands. It is promoted by two-time world heavyweight boxing champion George Foreman. Since its introduction in 1994, over 100 million George Foreman grills have been sold worldwide.

History
The concept for the grill was created by Michael Boehm of Batavia, Illinois.  The original intention was to create an indoor grill that would provide a unique benefit of cooking on both sides at once. A second key benefit was to reduce the fat content of hamburgers and other meats by draining away the fat into a separate reservoir. Boehm designed the product with a floating hinge and slanted grilling surface to accommodate foods of differing thicknesses and drain fat away from the food. Engineering work was performed by Bob Johnson. Boehm and Johnson brought a JVC camcorder and a sample of the product in bright yellow to the office of Barbara Westfield at Salton, Inc. The video was played, showing fat dripping from the grill into the collection tray. They presented the product as "The Fajita Express". The fajita grill had been promoted at industry trade shows in the early 1990s, but garnered little interest.

The slanted grill concept was pitched by Tsann Kuen to Salton, Inc. After one year, and several trade shows, Salton sent samples of the grill to George Foreman's colleagues, who then sent the grill to Foreman to test. Boehm was not involved in teaming up the grill and Foreman. Salton made several changes to the technical function of the product, removing the four risers meant for the user to lift up the grill, slide in one of the two included trays, and fill taco shells. One tray was for grease of fajita meat, and the second tray was to hold a taco shell, as was shown in the demonstration to Westfield in the original presentation at the Salton office in Mount Prospect, Illinois.

The Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machine, as it became known, was introduced in 1994 and promoted with distinctive infomercials which featured Foreman. A combination of his affable personality and the unique features of the product made it a huge success. Such was the popularity of these infomercials that Foreman's tagline, "It's so good I put my name on it!", is now part of popular culture. In Asia, the grill is endorsed and promoted by both George Foreman and Jackie Chan.

Design
The product has a clamshell design that simultaneously heats the top and bottom surfaces of the food, eliminating the need to flip it. Each heating surface is grooved to reduce contact area, and covered in a non-stick coating. The lower heating surface is angled to allow hot, liquid fat and other fluids to drain through the grooves into a removable drip tray, which shows the amount removed from the food. This arrangement has been marketed as a way to "knock out the fat", suggesting a healthier way to cook.

The grill is offered in various sizes for cooking individual or multiple servings. In 2006, the George Foreman "Next Grilleration" Health Grill was launched, featuring detachable grilling plates for easier cleaning. It has gone through several other versions, differing in their control interfaces and design.

In 2014, an updated Foreman Grill was released called the "Evolve Grill". The Evolve grill features interchangeable PTFE-free ceramic plates. The plates available are the traditional grill plates, waffle plates, a bake dish, mini burgers, a flat griddle, and a muffin pan.

Reception
The worldwide popularity of the George Foreman grill has resulted in sales of over 100 million units since it was first launched, a feat that was achieved in a little over 15 years. Although Foreman has never confirmed exactly how much he has earned from the endorsement, Salton, Inc. paid him $138 million in 1999 in order to buy out the right to use his name. Previous to that he was being paid about 40 percent of the profits on each grill sold, earning him $4.5 million a month in payouts at its peak, so it is estimated he has made a total of over $200 million from the endorsement, a sum that is substantially more than he earned as a boxer.

Competition
The success of the George Foreman Grill spawned a variety of similar celebrity-endorsed products, such as the Evander Holyfield Real Deal Grill, for which Holyfield starred in a 2007 infomercial, and the Carl Lewis Health Grill. None of these imitators, however, achieved the level of success of the Foreman Grill. The Jackie Chan Grill is the same grill as the George Foreman grill, but targets the Asian market, and is marketed by both Jackie Chan and George Foreman.

I would like to introduce myself. My name is Scott MacKenzie, and I am excited and proud to serve as the new Executive Director of the Charlevoix Area Humane Society. The CAHS Mission is "To practice and promote the principle that every life is precious. As such, we are committed to the highest principles of humane care and professional treatment of injured, ill, neglected or abused animals". This mission aligns with my own personal beliefs, so I feel my new position at the CAHS is a great match. I would like to personally thank you for your past support of such a worthy organization.
I kinda feel I am preaching to the choir here, but as you are aware the Humane Society brings up deep personal meanings and emotions, yet often different ones for each of us. I know for me the Humane Society has had a great emotional impact on several levels, first as a great civics lesson. When I was a child my mother served on the Board of Directors for the Genesee County Humane Society for many years. On a more personal level the Humane Society taught me my love of animals, and I learned about the unconditional love pets can bring to an individual and a family. I also learned the life lessons a young boy learns growing up with the wonderful adopted pets my mom brought home. Finally and most of all MacDuff. "Duff" was the most amazing mutt any child could ever want. To this day I'm still not sure of the mix, Collie, Shepherd, I think some Beagle, and several others… He was a big dog, white with brown ears with brown over one eye. Duff was so even tempered, yet brave and protective, independent, and the true family dog any family would ever want. I was two years old when Duff joined our family and I can vividly recall the day I said goodbye to him 15 years later. We had many pets, (other dogs, cats, birds, even gerbils, ducks and rabbits) in and out through the years, but Duff was the Alpha dog, and the love of my boyhood life. I have such strong and amazingly positive memories of my childhood with our family dog, the loyalty, the hugs, family trips and spelling out S.U.P.P.E.R (it was my job to feed the dogs) when it was dinner time. I only bring this up to share a small sample of how the staff, volunteers and I can relate to your relationships with the special pets in your life, and how we here at the Charlevoix Area Humane Society value; the sanctity and potential of each of the special animals that come to our shelter, along with the potential, the love, the positive effects and joy the animals we see who could bring quality and significance while sharing in a child or adult's life.
Those who know me might share with you that I can have a tendency to get a little long winded when it comes to things I am passionate about, so I will attempt to be brief here. I see an amazing and positive future for the Charlevoix Area Humane Society. The foundations of the organization have been set firm. We have a strong history of great progress in serving the animals and families of Charlevoix County. Over the years we have had great leaders and wonderful boards with vision. There is strong support with a wonderful constituency of donors and volunteers, but we do have room for improvement. We can achieve these needed improvements by broadening our support base, and that can be done through sharing our mission with others. I know you support our mission because of your personal life experiences, and those experiences gave you good reason to join our shared cause. Please share the reasons for your support of the CAHS with a friend and encourage them to join you, and help us achieve the next level in "taking humane care and professional treatment" of yours and all our precious animal friends.
What I want to do most of all is thankyouforyour support, and that I honestly look forward to working with you on the Charlevoix Area Humane Society's next great adventure.
