After fuelling the headscarf row, the Karnataka state government is quietly collecting data of Muslim students from educational institutions, especially those enrolled in classes 1-10, reports Deccan Herald. Education Minister BC Nagesh said that it is to counter media reports with misleading numbers. According to data of the Department of Public Instruction, there are 17,39,742 Muslim students in the state's government-run schools. Bengaluru South reported the highest number of minority students at 1,55,104, followed by Kalaburagi with 1,31,802 and Bengaluru North with 1,22,993. Chamarajanagar district reported the lowest number: 9,603.
The Department of Minority Welfare in Karnataka has issued a circular to schools under it to implement the Karnataka High Court's interim order on the hijab issue. Earlier, there was confusion about the applicability of the order to its Morarji Desai Residential Schools, and Maulana Azad Model Schools under it, where the maximum number of students are from the minority community.
While Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai has clarified that there is no ban on wearing the hijab in degree colleges across the state, many Muslim students are being denied permission. The Karnataka High Court's interim order, itself questionable, has been cited to refuse entry of Muslim girls wearing headscarves to schools and degree colleges as well, though the ruling does not apply to them at all, explains The Quint.
Washington-based Pew Research Centre's 'Religion in India: Tolerance and Segregation' report finds that 89% Indian Muslim women cover their heads outside their home. But so do 86% Sikh women, 59% Hindu women and 21% Christian women. Moreover, 18% Hindus (mostly Brahmins) wear a janeu, while 53% Hindu men wear the tilak; 69% Sikhs wear a turban; and 51% of all people surveyed (including 51% Hindus and 50% Muslims) across religions generally wear "a religious pendant, such as an amulet, cross, image or symbol of god."
It is 39 years today since a mob of caste Hindu Assamese, Tiwa (or Lalung), Mikir and other communities slaughtered over 2,000 Bengal-origin Muslims in and around Nellie in Assam in just six hours. The horrifying carnage, one of the biggest instances of sectarian mass violence in post-Independence India, happened at the peak of the Assam Movement (1979-85), which sought to cleanse Assam of "foreigners" or "illegal Bangladeshis". It remains one of the least discussed communal massacres in India, says Mint Lounge.
The mobile user count in India fell by 12.8 million in December 2021 compared to the previous month, with Reliance Jio and Vodafone Idea suffering subscriber losses though Bharti Airtel added customers, TRAI data showed. The consumer durable industry suffered a volume contraction of 25-30% in the third quarter, before the Omicron wave hit. Price hikes provided some respite in value terms as the fall was capped.
After waiting for more than six years, the family of Tapor Pullom has appealed to PM Narendra Modi to bring back an Arunachal Pradesh man who was allegedly captured by the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA). The recent release of Miram Taron by the PLA has rekindled the hopes of Pullom's family.
China's Ministry of Commerce has asked India "to improve its business environment" and to ensure "non-discriminatory" treatment of its firms, following a fresh ban on Chinese apps and tax probes on Chinese firms Huawei and Xiaomi. He said "relevant Indian authorities have taken a series of measures to suppress Chinese companies and their products in India, which have seriously damaged [their] legitimate rights and interests."
As India reduces its Ministry of External Affairs into a rebuttal-issuing office, former PM Dr Manmohan Singh yesterday put the knife into the Modi government for its foreign policy failure: "China is sitting at our border and efforts are being made to suppress it. Relationships do not improve by giving hugs to politicians, or by going to eat biryani without invitation." That refers to Modi's unscheduled trip to meet the Pakistan PM in Lahore.
The BJP's two-page manifesto for Manipur offers 20 promises to voters ahead of polls, but it is silent about repealing the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, which gives powers to search, arrest without warrant and shoot to kill in 'disturbed areas'. The people of Manipur have sought repeal for over two decades. Several of the BJP's ruling partners in the Northeast ― the National Peoples' Party, Naga Peoples' Front, Nationalist Democratic Political Party ― have demanded repeal and are raising the issue in the Manipur polls. BJP's Manipur CM N Biren Singh also wants the Act repealed, but his party manifesto skirts the issue.
The longstanding Prime Minister's National Relief Fund (PMNRF) received only Rs 321 crore in contributions in 2020-21, but it ended the year with its reserves at an all-time high of Rs 4,926 crore. Contributions declined from Rs 481 crore in 2019-20, largely on account of PM-CARES, the private fund created by PM Modi in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, which received Rs 3,076 crore in 2019-20.
A Delhi court has asked the Delhi Police Commissioner to file an inquiry report after noting that former JNU student leader Umar Khalid was produced in court in the alleged Delhi riots 'larger conspiracy' case in handcuffs, despite two previous orders against it.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi is likely to release the first part of the autobiography of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin, Ungalil Oruvan (One Among You) at a gala event in Chennai on February 28.

Savarkar biographer gets restraining order against historians charging plagiarism
A single judge bench of the Delhi High Court granted Vikram Sampath, author of a 2-volume biography of Hindutva ideologue V.D. Savarkar, temporary relief by restraining three United States-based historians from publishing their letter detailing extensive plagiarism charges against him on Twitter or elsewhere in India. In a letter to the Royal Historical Society last week, Audrey Truschke, Rohit Chopra and Ananya Chakravarti had provided several "preliminary" instances of alleged plagiarism, mainly in a paper Sampath published in the India Foundation Journal. The scholars whose research and writing he improperly cited or passed off as his own are Vinayak D. Chaturvedi and Janaki Bakhle. The restraining order will be in place till the date of next hearing, which is April 1.
In a Rs 2 crore defamation suit against the three historians, Sampath told the high court that "in all the instances of plagiarism that are being cited here there is not one wherein the Plaintiff is not guilty of attributing the source material to the original author.'
This claim is highly questionable. And in at least one paragraph where his words are strikingly similar to Chaturvedi's, the references Sampath provides to "the original author" also appear to have been copied from Chaturvedi, something that the academic world considers plagiarism:
India remains in denial of Covid toll
The Indian government has belatedly and unconvincingly denounced a serious academic report on the massive undercounting of Covid deaths in India. It terms the report "ill informed and speculative", and says that "India has a robust system of recording Covid-19 deaths based on a statutory framework." Good time to replug the report in Science on the massive undercounting, which estimates that nearly 3 million have died.
GoNews reports that the red herring prospectus filed by LIC for its IPO shows spikes in claims serviced coinciding with the pandemic. Since life insurance coverage is low in India, the figures indirectly indicate that the toll was much higher than official figures.
India discussed unfavourably in parliaments overseas
Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's praiseful invocation in their parliament of India's first PM Jawaharlal Nehru, and his references to present Indian MPs having "criminal, rape and murder charges", resulted in a prickly Modi government summoning High Commissioner Simon Wong yesterday, and calling the remarks "uncalled for, unnecessary and unacceptable". Lee, who has been in office for 18 years, had said, "Nehru's India has become one where, according to media reports, almost half the MPs in the Lok Sabha have criminal charges pending against them, including charges of rape and murder. Though it is also said that many of these allegations are politically motivated."
In the Australian parliament, Foreign Minister Marise Payne told Greens Senator Janet Rice on Wednesday of human rights abuses with India. The Senator had asked if there was a point when democratic decay/sectarianism in India would push Australia to reconsider engagement through Quad? The Indian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson said: "We have close relations with Australia. Quad was the main focus of the Foreign Minister's visit. She may have chosen to highlight certain aspects in parliament. These are useful occasions to exchange perspectives."
Kashmiri journalist arrested to keep 'public tranquillity'
A court in South Kashmir's Shopian district ordered police to arrest journalist and columnist Gowhar Geelani to ensure his appearance before it on Saturday in "order to maintain peace and public tranquillity". "In view of non-appearance of Gowhar Nazir Geelani after serving notice upon him under Section 107/151 CrPC … you are directed to arrest and produce the above said person before this court on 19/02/2022, in order to maintain peace and public tranquillity in the jurisdiction of this court," reads the order issued by Shopian executive magistrate 1st class.
Kerala temple cancels festival to mourn Muslim
A temple in Tirur in Kerala's Malappuram district called off its festival celebrations to mourn the death of an elderly Muslim man. The Thrippangod Beeranchira Punnassery temple suspended their thalappoli celebration out of respect for Cheratil Haider Ali, a timber merchant who lived close by. Thalappoli is a ritual in temple festivals where art forms are showcased and a procession of women and children carry lighted lamps and thalam (plate) filled with rice.
In the past, Malappuram has seen other examples of communal harmony. In January 2021, a Christian woman's last rites were held at the Ponnad Thahlimul Islam Higher Secondary Madrassa and her body was kept overnight there. In October 2020, the Parathakad Juma Masjid donated land to build a proper road to a temple in Muthuvallur Panchayat. The pathway benefited devotees and 10 families who live in a Dalit colony nearby.
Book Extract
The rise of Modi: Revenge of the elites
Modi's election in 2014 and re-election in 2019 represents an elite response to democratic empowerment from below. In India, democratic deepening was led by the rise of lower castes and a range of new social movements that coalesced into a loose but effective coalition under the UPA. Class interests are not given and building electoral coalitions is a messy and indeterminate affair. When and how coalitions produce electoral majorities is highly contingent. As Gramsci (1971) emphasised, historic blocs are formed of dominant classes that can exert hegemony over allied groups by actively coordinating interests. In India the period of restricted democracy was supported by a class alliance in which the three dominant factions of the propertied classes ― business, professional and landed ― were each guaranteed a share of public resources, much to the exclusion of the masses (Bardhan 1999).
That began to change with the UPA government (2004– 2014). Though the government did continue to push the liberalisation of the economy, business interests became increasingly frustrated with the government's determination to expand social programmes. NREGA in particular invited widespread attacks as a wasteful, anti-market policy, especially from landed elites who resented the government's interference in local labour markets they had long dominated (Veeraraghavan 2017). But the opposition of these dominant economic interests alone was hardly enough to build an electorally viable coalition and specifically to expand support from a growing middle class.
Sociologists have long argued that material interests are intertwined with cultural practices.
The durable categories through which inequalities are reproduced are rooted in group practices that marshal cultural and social resources to protect privileges and hoard opportunities. This intertwining is sharply revealed in the ideological project of the BJP which has been framed by a new discourse of forming a reinvigorated nation based in an essentialist and singular identity, a nation of virtuous citizens standing in opposition to the undeserving poor, criminality/corruption and the coddling or "appeasement" of minorities. In this casteless meritocracy, the virtues of an achieving and aspiring middle class have displaced the language of universalism and social rights. Traditional institutions of temple, the military, the nation and the patriarchal family have been resurrected. National capital and businesses are celebrated as champions of progress and the elan vital of a renewed national spirit is held up against the corrosive effects of human rights and a vaguely defined "globalism" as a carrier of anti-cultural materialism and secularism…
The upper middle class of professionals has always had a fickle relationship to democracy, but lent significant support to the Congress in its hegemonic decades (Fernandes and Heller 2006). The professional classes had ― per Bardhan ― a clear stake in the expansion of the developmental state and secular nationalism, most notably state-funded higher education. If this class has defected, it is because the expansion of welfare policies to include the poor has threatened its privileged status position, especially with respect to educational institutions…
Though upper-caste mobilisation crystallised around opposition to affirmative action policies in the 1980s, the BJP has supported "reservations" since the 1990s as a pragmatic concession
to incorporating OBCs (Chacko 2019). But practices in institutions dominated by upper castes remain resolutely exclusionary (Vithayathil 2018). Economically, the upper middle class has grown and has come to depend less on the state than on globalisation for its economic well-being, hence the pattern of global cities supporting reaction. But the upper middle class can hardly sustain a winning electoral coalition. The pivotal shift has been the realignment of the neo-middle class.

The wilfully created confusion between what is 'free' and what is financed by public money scaled new heights of vulgarity when a BJP MLA in Etawah, Sarita Bhadauria, complained about how people are not voting for the BJP, despite "gobbling up salt, ration and money" given for free. Earlier, vaccines were also passed off as largesse. These are paid for by the money of Indians, not the BJP, and the public distribution and health systems were in place well before the BJP was born.
Prime Number: 47% Vacancy
According to a Home Ministry report, 47% of DIG-rank posts at the Centre are vacant.
Assam cow law harming neighbours, amended
The draconian Assam Cattle Preservation Act, 2021 brought in by Himanta Biswa Sarma last December, has made it difficult for the neighbouring states of Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh to procure cattle. Short supply has pushed up the price of meat in these states, which are ruled by the BJP. The crisis has led to a change in the law and its rules by the Assam government, which will make it easier to transport cattle to these states, reports The Print.
Journalist Priya Ramani spoke up during the 2018 MeToo movement. Former Union minister and top editor, BJP's MJ Akbar, filed a criminal defamation case against her. The consequences were severe — but Ramani's friends and women journalists came together to question the roots of defamation in archaic English class concepts of reputation and honour. Fifty Two has the details of the seminal case.
Five breeds of dog banned from cantonment
The Army has stated that rottweilers, pit bulls, American bulldogs, bull mastiffs and German Shepherds will not be permitted as pets in the community living areas in Delhi cantonment. A circular issued by Station Headquarters, Delhi area, cited a ferocious attack by an officer's dog on another officer's son as the reason for the ban. The dog was being handled by a sahayak (now christened a 'military buddy') even though "various advisories at many stations are being promulgated that certain menial jobs should not be undertaken by military buddies."
Op-Eds you don't want to miss
Julio Ribeiro writes that it is noteworthy that our justice system facilitates the release of murder accused on bail if they support the ruling party and ensures that even young students criticising the government languish in jail for years.
On all counts, the government's record on its five-year goal to build a new India by 2022 is dismal, writes Aakar Patel.
Harsh Mander asks, 'Is India lurching towards genocide?'
Ajoy Bose writes that strenuous efforts by the BJP to woo Dalit voters in the state Assembly polls have hit a roadblock in both Punjab and UP.
Whatever the outcome of the five ongoing Assembly polls, one thing is clear: the BJP is no longer dreaded by its opponents ― no longer is it cloaked in an aura of invincibility, writes Partha S Ghosh.
Madhav Gadgil writes that revisions in the Biodiversity Act are anti-people and anti-science. To preserve biodiversity, the government must engage with grassroots conservationists.
The armed forces' strength can be reduced by 30-40%, like in other modern militaries trying to reduce human resources costs. Lt Gen HS Panag (retd) argues that increasing retirement age and reducing pension is not the solution.
How our policymakers absorb languishing masses into a flourishing state will define our nation when we celebrate the centenary of our freedom, writes Jaideep Hardikar.
Angshuman Choudhury and Suraj Gogoi write that beneath the BJP's seemingly secular pushback against the hijab lies a sinister single-point agenda of erasing the Muslim way of life from the public space.
If people are interested in 'liberating' women from the hijab, they must recognise that forcing women to do anything in the name of liberation does not achieve their goal, writes Ruha Shadab.
How can India be great when vitriolic rhetoric and fanning of communal hatred, reinforced by orchestrated social media onslaughts, create fissures in a society that had discovered an idiom to coexist for several centuries with all differences, asks K Jayakumar.

First time posting on here. I have just started using ANSYS and have run into a problem I haven't been able to solve. I have a large rotating antenna and I need to find the torque created around its rotation point caused by certain wind velocities and directions. I have been able to run a flow simulation on it in Solidworks just fine, however my work uses ANSYS and ANSYS is saying there are errors with the model (but not highlighting where or what they are).
I was wondering if someone might be able to spare a couple of minutes to help me out as I've run out of ideas. I've attached a Solidworks assembly file containing all the editable parts, and another of a single body STEP file that I have tried to use with ANSYS. I was hoping someone might be able to run a basic mesh over it to see what the problem might be. I appreciate any help I can get with this.
I am not completely sure, but it seems to me that you are interested in running a Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) simulation. Here are some resources which you might find useful for your model.
Please also check out the ANSYS HowToVideos page on youtube for other specific videos related to geometry, meshing, and solver.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to open your files. Perhaps the other members of the community can provide more specific recommendations. I hope this helps.
Thank you for this. It is useful to know, however at this stage coupling looks a bit too complex for me. I just want to simulate wind at a certain speed and heading, and how much force it creates around the rotation point, assuming the structure is rigid. Do I have to select every face of my model for this?
That is definitely issue regarding exporting mesh to Fluent. Can you paste the error message here?


Just a beautifully sunny day on the beach with a few white caps, sparkling ocean and not much wind. 4 people walking, one person reading and a couple sunning themselves. Two flocks of gulls and little to nothing in the rack line.


Finally got this resolved as of today. The new rear end didnt stop the issue of my left turn fuel pump voltage drop issue, but it did obviously fixed the whining issue. Fun fact, the preload was way out of spec because the main pinion nut loosened itself a good half turn! Brand new rear end is being broken in as we speak. About 500miles on it already but will take it easy to 1000 then swap fluid.
As for the issue regarding my engine codes and loss of power on hard left turns... my builder was working on a ZL1 1LE and installed 2" ARH headers (Mine are 1 7/8) and he noticed it was actually making contact with the main harness under the coolant tank... so he asked me to bring the car back and sure enough, we lifted up the tank, pulled the harness up and found the melted wires.
Moral of the story... if you have a ZL1 with ARH headers, you might want to check this!
I have been following your issues and glad that you finally managed to find the culprit.
Can you elaborate on the whining issue?
I seem to notice a very subtle whine from the rear end as well.
Seems to stop when I press the clutch and comes back when I engage the clutch again. It is especially noticeable when turning very slow speed.
Do you have headers... Did you see this thread?
Are you saying that when you engage the clutch and let the engine slow the car that you hear the whining? Usually clutching in and letting the car slow naturally would reduce my whine. Mine never made noise when turning though. My entire pinion was rattling around due to the loose nut. There is actually a TSB for the groaning when turning of yours is doing that.
The good news is that GM warranty replaced my differential. If yours has an issue hopefully they would take a look at yours as well.
My builder just checked a 2017 CTSV he is working on and it actually has a heat shield/wrap on that same harness. GM clearly missed the memo on that one. I feel it should have been wrapped on all the cars. Anyone with stock manifolds mind taking a pic to see what the clearance is?

A Statement from the US Military

Bow to Nobody Press Release
Scott Hommel / [email protected] / 518.595.4340
Tampa, FL – Special Operations for America is proud to release its brand new video at the "Defending Our Defenders" event in Tampa, FL on August 28, 2012. The ad features clips of our service men and women fighting on the principle of American exceptionalism. Their valiant service is abruptly negated by the Commander-in-Chief, President Obama, bowing to other world leaders. The video highlights this administration's fundamental disbelief in strong, American leadership. Our service men and women showcase America's strength and freedom, but their service is sorely discredited when their leader bows on the world stage. They have fought far too hard.
In the words of Chairman Zinke, "The ad itself accurately portrays where this President is. It accurately portrays his core belief that America should not lead. This President is shaping America to be one of the followers, to relinquish our role as a world leader. I didn't fight 23 years as a Navy SEAL to watch America bow to anybody."
Our message of leadership and American exceptionalism is striking a chord. Many veterans have expressed their strong support, because this administration is dismantling their efforts to maintain American leadership. The Obama administration is taking note. Last week it was reported that Special Operations for America was added to the Obama campaign's "enemies list." SOFA's message is resonating with voters. This ad will only continue to highlight our belief in strong, American leadership.
Chairman Zinke's words echo the sentiments of those who believe in American exceptionalism, "I've been trained to fight and not give up, and I'm not going to give in."

One of the significant sources of funds for the Cabal is the healthcare industry which registered a whopping $2.7 trillion in 2011, and is projected to soar to $3.6 trillion in 2016, in the US alone. We believe that this is just a conservative figure.
You can join the fight against the Dark Cabal and accelerate its demise just by boycotting Big Pharma. You can effectively do this by downloading "Towards Healthcare Emancipation", a fully illustrated do-it-yourself instructional eBook that will help you in implementing all eClinik methods that would negate the use of expensive medicine, avoid radioactive diagnostics and treatments in completely defeating cancer, AIDS and all other parasitic diseases. These methods, when faithfully followed, work 100% all the time. Find out more about this here.

SusieQ29 says:
I have the very utmost respect for our military and if anyone should be bowed to it should be them.I commend them and send them my love.
As far as O bowing to the leaders of the other countries…I think all of the leaders should be bowing to each other in the name of PEACE. And I don't think that the United States or any other country has to be the LEADER…we are all equal and should treat each other accordingly.
I don't like O. and I don't like Rom…neither one in my opinion should be president.
This whole movement is about WE THE PEOPLE. and neither one of them represent us in anyway. Nor does our government.
Please let's all stand together in the name of PEACE.

Before embarking on a successful media and communications career in the private sector, Brian Lamb served in the armed forces as a Lieutenant in the United States Navy from 1963 to 1967. His military service ran concurrently with the U.S. involvement in Vietnam. Approximately one out of every six Booknotes interviews dealt with works of military history. Among them there were several which were about the Vietnam War.
Neil Sheehan's book about the Vietnam War, Bright and Shining Lie, was C-SPAN's first-ever author interview series. Brian Lamb followed Sheehan's progress on the book during the sixteen years it was being written. Concerned that Bright and Shining Lie might not get the in-depth coverage that he felt it deserved, Lamb invited Sheehan to take part in a series of interviews to be televised on C-SPAN in October and November 1988. In this photograph, taken by Brian Lamb, Sheehan is examining archival boxes at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.
CBS News Vietnam correspondent John Laurence spent 22 months reporting from Vietnam during the period from 1965 to 1970. While embedded with U.S. Army troops, Laurence witnessed some of the most difficult and brutal events of the war, such as the Tet Offensive, the Battle for Hue, the siege at Khe Sanh, and other actions first-hand. In 1968 he came upon a cat in the city of Hue who became his companion for the remainder of the war and afterward. The item here depicts Brian Lamb's heavily annotated version of The Cat from Hue that he used to prepare for his January 2002 interview with Laurence.
Frederick Downs, a former U.S. Army officer who lost his arm in Vietnam, is interviewed as part of the "Booknotes" Oral History Project on May 15, 2014 at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. Downs discusses his appearance on C-SPAN's "Booknotes" program of January 1992, where he discussed his book No Longer Enemies, Not Yet Friends: An American Soldier Returns to Vietnam. The book deals with his service in the War and his return to Vietnam in the late 1980s to help in the repatriating of the remains of fellow American servicemen.
Robert McNamara, Secretary of Defense during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, appeared on Booknotes in April 1995 to discuss his book In Retrospect: the Tragedy and Lessons of Vietnam. He is shown here in his office in downtown Washington, D.C. In his "Booknotes" interview with Lamb, McNamara related that he began writing the book in this office in long-hand, without the aid of a computer, research, or notes.
Robert Timberg, a Naval Academy graduate and journalist for the Baltimore Sun, is interviewed as part of the Booknotes Oral History Project on September 26, 2014. Timberg discusses his appearance on C-SPAN's "Booknotes" program in August 1995, where he discussed his book, The Nightingale's Song. The book is about the military and political careers of John McCain, Bud McFarlane, Oliver North, John Poindexter, and Jim Webb, all of whom were graduates of the United States Naval Academy and served during the Vietnam War.

George Zimmerman sells gun for $250K

George Zimmerman, the man who shot and killed Trayvon Martin, told the Daily Beast that Trayvon Martin's parents "didn't raise their son right."

When asked about Martin's family and selling the gun he used to kill Trayvon, he said, "Sure, I'm sorry for any parent that has lost a child ... That being said, I also believe it's their duty to have an internal dialogue to see what they should have done better. ... They didn't raise their son right."

Since his acquittal, Zimmerman has been in the news for one scandal after another from his original Confederate flag painting sold in the "Muslim-free gun store" to his arrest on suspicion of domestic abuse.

"It's time to move past the firearm, and if I sell it and it sells, then I move past it," Zimmerman said.

Last week, Zimmerman made headlines for attempting to auction off the gun he used to shoot and kill Martin. After one site deemed the auction inappropriate and took it down, the item was picked up by another. The bidding currently sits at more than $137,000.

Zimmerman told the Daily Beast he wants to use the money to fight the Black Lives Matter movement: "I would take that money, and I would make sure that every law enforcement officer and every single civilian who is affected by the Black Lives Matter fraudulent, violent campaign those officers, those civilians, their entire families were made wealthy beyond their wildest imaginations."

The Martin family's attorney said last week that "the family does not want to dignify this with a response" when asked about the gun auction. So far, they're treating these latest comments the same way.

UPDATE: George Zimmerman received a higher bid for the gun used to kill Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman told a KTNV staffer that the bid he is accepting is $250,000. This is a developing story and more details will follow.
An earlier bid of $150,000 from a bar owner in Daytona Beach fell through according to the Daytona Beach News-Journal.
TMZ had reported that George Zimmerman has sold the gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin for $120,000.
The outlet says seven bidders participated in the process and that the winner is anonymous per the site's rules. The sale is pending verification of the winner's funds.
Zimmerman shot and killed Martin in Florida in February of 2012. Martin was unarmed at the time, carrying only a bag of candy and an iced tea. Zimmerman was ultimately acquitted of second-degree murder in 2013, sparking outrage across the country.
Zimmerman tried to sell the pistol used in the shooting last week on GunBroker.com. The site later took down the posting, saying it wanted "no part in the listing on our website or in any of the publicity it is receiving." He also put the gun up for sale on United Gun Group, but spam accounts quickly drove up the bidding to north of $65 million.
Zimmerman has also said that he will donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale to groups that oppose the Black Lives Matter movement, as well as groups opposing Hillary Clinton.

Visiting Vatican, South Korean president says confident of peace
Moon Jae-in to meet Pope Francis on Thursday; expected to extend invitation from Kim Jong Un to visit North Korea.
South Korea's president said he was certain peace could be achieved on the Korean Peninsula ahead of an audience on Thursday with Pope Francis where he's expected to extend an invitation from North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to visit the reclusive country.
President Moon Jae-in, who is Catholic, spoke at the end of an evening mass at the Vatican, saying the prayers offered at the service would "resound as echoes of hope in the hearts of the people of the two Koreas as well as the people of the whole world who desire peace".
"Our prayers today will turn into reality for sure," he said. "We will achieve peace and overcome division without fail."
The South Korean leader signed a broad agreement with Kim last month designed to reduce military tensions on the Peninsula. Moon's office announced during their summit that Kim said the pope would be "enthusiastically" welcomed in North Korea.
WATCH: Two Koreas open first liaison office since World War II (2:07)
Moon also played an important role in setting up June's meeting in Singapore between Kim and US President Donald Trump.
Improved relations?
In an article in the Vatican newspaper, L'Osservatore Romano, Moon praised Pope Francis for his promotion of dialogue and said he hoped the Korean peace initiative could help the Vatican forge relations with the North.
He wrote that when he visited Pyongyang in September for the summit, he was joined by a Korean Catholic bishop to try and improve relations between the church in North and South Korea.
North Korea strictly controls the religious activities of its people, and a similar invitation to Pope John Paul II to visit after the Inter-Korean Summit that was held in 2000 never resulted in a meeting. The Vatican insisted at the time a papal visit would only be possible if Catholic priests were accepted in North Korea.
Francis, however, has taken a less absolutist approach and recently agreed to a deal with China over bishop nominations, which only allows religious practice in state-sanctioned churches.
North Korea expelled the Vatican's priests long ago and state-appointed laymen officiate services. Estimates of the number of North Korean Catholics range from 800 to about 3,000, compared with more than five million in South Korea.
Is North Korea serious about peace?

What kind of kid were you at the age of students at this new school? I was a teacher pleaser. I tied all of my friend's shoes, helped them with their milk at lunch and talked to everyone — maybe too much at times.
The biggest lesson you have learned from students is… We can only see what is on the surface of each child until we build a relationship with them. After that, they show us who they really are underneath: what they love, what makes them scared, what excites them, what they are reaching for in the future. It is about caring for the whole child.
If I could go back to school I would … work on my doctorate and investigate more the effects of childhood trauma and how to have school success.

'It's for my people, my country,' says New Jersey family hosting Haitian asylum seeker
October 29, 2021 1096 views0
Vkatrine and her two young children have lived in three different homes since requesting asylum in the United States last month. But recently, she has found refuge in the East Orange, New Jersey, household of the Noelsaint family.
Gerda Noelsaint, a mother-of-two herself, had plenty of space in the seven-bedroom Victorian home she shares with her husband Joseph and two family friends. When she heard that Vkatrine and her family needed shelter and care after spending time at the encampment in Del Rio, Texas, Noelsaint felt moved to help.
"My daughter asked me if I have a space to take her, because she doesn't have a place to go," said Noelsaint, 73, a retired nurse. "When she told me [she] slept on the floor, and it was cold and the kids got sick, that hurt me so much."

Q: sfGuardAuth across multiple apps I've got 3 apps: Backend, Frontend and Members.
And I've got 2 credentials: Administrators and Members.
Administrators are imported by default but Members are created in the Backend.
When a Member is created, an event handler also inserts this Member as a sf_guard_user and of course, the proper relations in sf_guard_user_group and sf_guard_user_permission.
That's the boring part, now the fun:
Frontend is not secured, but Members is and using these credentials: [administrator, member].
According to all this, Members created in the Backend that also get inserted (correctly as far as I can tell) should be able to login to the Members secured app, since they get the member group/permission/credential.
This is not happenning, the only ones that can login to the Members app are the administrators, which is not wrong, but either is the fact that correctly created Member users can't login to it.
The error thrown by the guard is the classic: The username and/or password is invalid.
Now that I edit the error, the salt comes to mind: How would one emulate the inserting of the salt as the guard does it? Maybe that's what I'm not inserting correctly (or inserting at all) and thus the password invalid error (and in fact everythine else I've described is ok! omg)
And that's my problem.
Thanks in advance :)

A: [administrator, member] means both are required, I believe.
I think you want [[administrator, member]] for the credential requirement.
Also, yes, you will want to make sure you use a salt, and set the algo.
    parent::_set('password', call_user_func_array($algorithm, array($salt.$password)));

Salt before password, as well.

Smith's two-goal game leads Cape Henlopen to Division I field hockey final
Nov 13th, 2018 · by Ben Heck · Comments:
Cape's Alia Marshall, right, celebrates her first-half goal with teammates during the Division I field hockey state semifinals at Rullo Stadium in Newark. Delaware State News/Marc Clery
NEWARK — Every time the Cape Henlopen High field hockey team takes the field, the Vikings' offensive unit's primary objective is to score a goal within the first five minutes.
The Vikings were unable to put one on the scoreboard within the first five minutes of Tuesday night's Division I field hockey state semifinal showdown with Polytech High at University of Delaware's Fred P. Rullo Stadium.
Instead, the top-seeded Vikings settled for a goal within the first 13 minutes during a 3-0 shutout win over the fourth-seeded Panthers for their 15th straight win and shutout.
Polytech's Mackenzie Estrada battles Cape's Anna Stancofski.
"We wanted a goal five minutes in. Our goal is always in the first five minutes to score a goal, because that really just sets the pace for the game and it takes the wind out of a team's sail if you can score that early in a big game. It's deflating," said Cape coach Kate Austin.
"So we didn't reach our goal, but we got shots off and we had a few missed opportunities in those first five minutes."
Cape edged Polytech 10-0 in shots on goal and 10-0 in penalty corners.
Junior attack Cameron Smith paced the offense, netting a pair of goals to set her team up with a state title showdown with second-seeded Padua Academy Friday at the University of Delaware. The time of the state final game is yet to be determined.
Cape's Jacqueline Cannon hits the ball past Polytech's Megan Popp.
"We really just focused on creating those opportunities in the circle and drawing corners. I think we did a good job drawing those corners," said Austin. "We were just moving at a really high speed tonight, all over the field people were just flying and that's what it takes to beat a good team."
Senior midfielder Alia Marshall scored one goal — the opening goal at the 17:09 mark of the first half — and assisted on one of Smith's two second-half goals.
"We knew they were going to pack the circle and play tight defense, so our main goal I think was just running the offense quickly," Marshall said. "Right off the bat, right from the start of the game, we were hoping to get a goal or a corner just to set the tone for the rest of the game."
Two of the team's three goals came on penalty corner attempts, including Marshall's early goal.
"It was really exciting scoring that goal, and I think just getting a goal in the first half was also part of our goal today," she said. "So, to be able to do it myself was even better."
When Smith extended the lead at the 20:48 mark of the second half with her first of two goals on the night, she wasn't even trying to put the ball in the back of the cage.
The Vikings' Alia Marshall, left, battles the Panthers' Regan Kenney.
Smith drove the ball from just inside the circle, hoping to put it close enough to the cage for a teammate to tip it in.
"I was just going to take a shot and aim it towards the tippers, but luckily it just went in and it was just the luck of it," she explained. "I really didn't think I was going to score on that play, I normally don't hit so it was a shocker to me."
Smith cemented the victory by scoring a goal off a Marshall assist at the 4:01 mark of the second half.
"The ball had just come out from the goalie, so I was trying to get a shot up, but I couldn't get the perfect touch on it," Marshall said. "So, thankfully, Cameron was there to put it in for me."
"Basically, we're all about finishing on plays, and it was right there so I was able to tap it in and get our third goal," said Smith.
After struggling to finish on plays during Cape's 1-0 regular season win over Polytech Oct. 11, Cape made sure the offense finished on plays and capitalized on scoring opportunities the second time around.
"We knew they were going to pack the circle, so we were able to work around them and tap it in," Smith said.
We didn't have as many corners as we did last time we played them, but I think what did help us is the faster surface," Cannon said of the UD turf. "We made sure to keep the ball on the ground for easy tips, we scored twice on corners and the ball was getting out faster."
Junior goalkeeper Marlee Geppert posted the shutout without even seeing a shot on goal come her way from the Panthers' offense.
Polytech goalkeeper Holly Rembold made six saves.

Q: "Name" folder appears in the top of every finder window I am running Mountain Lion and notice occasionally a weird thing happening in the finder. I will be navigating through folders and notice that at the top of each folder that there is a folder called "Name". I can't click into that folder and there really isn't a folder of that name that should exist.
I've particularly noticed it when using the column view (not sure what else to call it the view where you see each folder in a column as you navigate through them). It only happens intermittently. Has anyone ever seen this or have an idea of why this might be happening?

A: I've seen this, can't reproduce it, but it's a glitch in Finder's Arrange By options, and can be fixed by leaving Arrange set to None.

Tiffany Cochran Edwards had three simple pieces of advice to those attending 16th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Freedom Breakfast: cultivate optimism in all that you do, be of service to your community and those around you, and fulfill your own unique destiny.
"We are here today because the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. laid a solid foundation for what is right and just for this country, a social consciousness that really permeates in every area of our life and it should still drive us today," she said.
Edwards served as a news anchor for 17 years, 10 of them in Atlanta. She currently is the national brand manager and public relations director for The Cochran Firm, the national law firm founded by her father, the late attorney Johnnie Cochran Jr. Since her father's death from a brain tumor 13 years ago, she also has focused on raising money for the Johnnie L. Cochran Jr. Brain Tumor Center at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
The theme for this year's breakfast was "The Power of the Dream: Building the Beloved Community," something King regularly called for in his speeches. This community could only be formed, he said, by love and understanding.
Today, our country is very divided, Edwards said, and many of the voices heard are loud and cruel. But there's hope of building King's community yet.
Creating this world means loving one another despite and because of our differences, Edwards said. It's a tough task but one worth achieving.
Three individuals were also awarded the President's Fulfilling the Dream Award during the breakfast. The award is given to people in the university and Athens-Clarke County communities who are actively striving to make King's dreams of racial justice and equality reality.
Paige Carmichael, a professor of veterinary pathology in the College of Veterinary Medicine, received the faculty/staff award for her commitment to advocating for students from all backgrounds.
Charlene Marsh, a fourth-year international affairs and political science major, was presented the student award for her involvement in numerous organizations dedicated to combatting racial prejudice. She also serves as the vice president of the Student Government Association.
Native Athenian Michele Pearson received the outstanding member of the Athens community award for her work in furthering King's dream of an inclusive community for all.

The following are some frequently asked questions from MSCL users. It can also be useful to view previous [Issues](https://github.com/LORD-MicroStrain/MSCL/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=)

If you need more help, please [Create a New Issue](https://github.com/LORD-MicroStrain/MSCL/issues/new), or contact richard.stoneback@lord.com

### How do I set up a connection to a WSDA-2000 / WSDA-1500 ethernet BaseStation?

Using a TCP/IP connection vs a USB/Serial connection in MSCL is as simple as changing 1 line of code:

```py
# creating a USB/Serial Connection
serialConnection = mscl.Connection.Serial("COM3")

# change to a tcp connection for a WSDA-1500
tcpConnection = mscl.Connection.TcpIp("192.100.26.1", 5000)

baseStation = mscl.BaseStation(tcpConnection)
```

### I am using a WSDA-2000 ethernet BaseStation, but am having trouble communicating with it / Wireless Nodes.

Depending on your network latency, you may need to adjust the timeout for communicating with the BaseStation:

```py
baseStation = mscl.BaseStation(connection)

# set the timeout to 2 seconds
baseStation.timeout(2000)
```

### My Wireless Node won't respond to commands.

In order to communicate with a Wireless Node, all of the following must be true:
- The Node is powered on, and within range of the BaseStation
- The Node is on the same frequency as the BaseStation
- The Node is in Idle Mode (not sampling, and not sleeping)

If all of the above is true, you may want to try adding some retries. MSCL can perform these for you for all read/write eeprom commands:

```py
node = mscl.WirelessNode(123, baseStation)

node.readWriteRetries(3)
```

### I'm attempting to connect to a device on Linux, and I'm getting a Connection error.

The /dev/tty* devices usually have a group of `dialout`. You will either need to make sure the device you are accessing is owned by you, or add your user to the `dialout` group (`usermod -a -G dialout YOUR_USER_NAME`).

To be updated with the latest information in the worm farming industry to can visit our composting latest news. On the other hand if you are starting composting and would like to start professional worm farming today get a copy of our how to make a worm farm ebook.
Worm farming is a huge step toward making your family environmentally friendly and our planet a bit greener. You won't find an easier means to do that than worm farming. Beneath, you'll find out precisely what worm farms are and understand the benefits of worm farming. You'll feel better about yourself knowing that you did your part to help the planet.
People who are thinking about worm farms frequently use food bits so that them can decompose. What the worms excrete is called casts, or vermicompost. That is subsequently used to fertilise the grass, the garden and other areas. The food bits become worm compost, which compost is rich in nutrients and minerals. This is an excellent alternative for people and garden lovers looking for an organic and 100 percent natural way to enrich ground without using commercial fertilisers. If you're contemplating starting a worm farm, you should look for the two worms that are common. These are the Red Earthworm (the Lumbricus rubella) and the Red Wiggler (the Esienia foetida).
If you would like to make a worm farm on a large scale or on a small scale it is possible to determine. You may also discover that many of the commercial farms sell the worm castings or the vermicompost and the worms. The organic compost sold here is sought after. Or, should you not care to purchase it you could always make your own. With a little research on the matter you will become the seller that is next in the neighbourhood!
The best part about worm farming is that you can do it in your own backyard. If you need, you may also do it in your kitchen. Composting bins or vermiculture bins (worm-farm bins) can be bought online. Nevertheless, you can begin worm farming with a couple of simple containers like metal containers, plastic bins, buckets, wooden crates and many other things, of your own.

FIRE > Newsdesk > Penn State's Student Newspaper Advocates Policy Revision for Free Speech
Penn State's Student Newspaper Advocates Policy Revision for Free Speech
by Adam Kissel
Today's edition of Penn State's Daily Collegian features a compelling staff editorial titled "PSU should revise free speech policy." The editorial focuses on Penn State's idea, in the "Penn State Principles," that all Penn State members, simply by being a part of the community, pledge not to "engage in any behaviors that compromise or demean the dignity of individuals or groups, including intimidation, stalking, harassment, discrimination, taunting, ridiculing, insulting, or acts of violence." (Emphasis added.) The editorial rightly responds:
No one wants to be demeaned or intimidated in their learning environment, but should making fun your friends' bad haircuts or unfortunate choices of rain boots, some examples of "taunting" and "ridiculing," really be included in behaviors "that demean the dignity of individuals or groups?"
Speech is not harassment simply because it offends someone. Harassment is extreme behavior, behavior so repeated and severe that its victim is effectively denied an education.
Good-natured ribbing has a historic home on college campuses and within the college-age bracket, and while this policy is not referring to friendly jabs, the language is too vague and broad.
As I wrote two weeks ago, the "Penn State Principles" presume to know "the values that our students, faculty, staff, administration, and alumni possess" and expect that all members of the Penn State community are "endorsing these common principles."
The "Penn State Principles" constitute a central reason why Penn State earned its "red light" rating for the restriction of free speech. Indeed, as Penn State spokesman Geoff Rushton said, the red light rating draws "attention," and it is attention that Penn State deserves for its unduly restrictive policies.
Rushton also said that FIRE was taking the policy out of context—again, one can view the entire statement here. Now that we're talking about the whole document, I actually think it's worse to couch the policy in the first person, as "I will" and "I will not," as though Penn State really knows that everyone on the campus has fully agreed with these pledges and with "common" principles and values. Penn State is not alone, as I have noted in general, in having administrators or statements that claim to speak for the whole campus community, in violation of the principle of promoting diverse views on campus.
In any case, kudos to the Daily Collegian for defending free speech at Penn State.

Q: Adding var to new window Javascript doing some HTML and javascript stuff and I seem to be at a stand still at this one spot.
All i have to do is perform a simple calculator and take the result and display it on a new window. Was using javascript to open the new window but having trouble taking the result and putting it into the new HTML window text box.
var totalarea is the value i need added to the new window was thinking of putting it in the HTMLstring+='\n'; somewhere

<title>Cross-Window HTML</title>

Carpet Calculator

<form name="userInputs">
Enter the length of your room in feet

<input type="Text" name="length" id="length" size="7">

Enter the width of your room in feet

<input name = "width" id="width" type="text"size="7">

Typically an allowance is made for room irregularities and         unavoidable waste.

Enter the percent overage as an integer in the interval [0, 20]

<input name = "allowance" id="allowance" type = "text" />

<input type="button" name="CalcSqFeet" id="area" value="Calculate Square Feet" onClick="newfeetwin()" />

A: Change your functions like
function newPage(totalarea) {

function ComputeSquareFeet() {
var percent = .01;
var num1 = +document.getElementById("length").value;
var num2 = +document.getElementById("width").value;
var num3 = +document.getElementById("allowance").value;
var area = num1 * num2;
var totalarea = (num3 * percent * area) + area;
return totalarea;
}
function newfeetwin() {
//ComputeSquareFeet()
newPage(ComputeSquareFeet())
}

A: You should return the value from JavaScript function, Then pass value to answer box..
change you JavaScript code as follows.

Answering the Atheist, Apologetics, Jewish Evangelism, Top Articles, Videos & Articles
Is Jesus Just for the Simple and Uneducated?
Will an educated person inevitably reject the message of Jesus? And what about an intelligent Jew? Would they automatically reject Jesus and His teachings? Is it only fools and uneducated people that are impressed by the message of Jesus?
This is what the rabbis want you to believe at least – see for example what Rabbi Aaron Moss wrote on chabad.org: "The missionaries choose to target those in society who are weak, old, immigrants and deprived populations, in an attempt to take advantage of their vulnerability… Of course they have nothing to offer to a thinking person…"
Is rabbi Moss correct?
Let's allow an educated Jew, a thinker, to respond: The Jewish scientist, Albert Einstein, answered the question: "Does he accept Jesus as an historical figure?" "Absolutely! No one can read the Gospels without feeling Jesus' presence. His character lives in every word. No legend is full of such life… No one can deny the fact that Jesus existed, or that His words were enlightened. Even if some of His sayings were said before, no one expressed them in such Godly way like He did."
The Jewish writer, Shalom Ash, whose stories were turned into theater plays all over the world, wrote: "Jesus is the most prominent figure of all times. There is no other teacher – Jewish, Christian, Buddhist or Muslim. His teachings are still milestones in the world we live in. Other teachers might have something basic to offer the Easterner, Arab or the Westerner; but in every act or word of Jesus, there is value for us all. He became the light of the world. Why wouldn't I, as a Jew, be proud of that?"
Professor Mordechai Buber of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, wrote in his book "Two Kinds of Faith": "Today, more than ever, I am convinced that Jesus has a great place in history, and in the faith of the People of Israel."
The Jewish philosopher Baruch Spinoza wrote: "God's eternal wisdom, showed itself in everything, especially in the human soul, but above all, in Jesus the Messiah." (Letter #21 to Henry Oldenburg, November 1675)
Benjamin Disraeli was Prime Minister of Britain during the 19th century and one of the greatest British politicians of his time. He was a prolific international author and recipient of a Nobel title from the Queen. He was Jewish, but also believed that Jesus was the Messiah. He said the following: "Between the Old and New Testaments, there is a page… Jesus came to complete the Law and the Prophets. Christianity is completed Judaism".
"Between the Old and New Testaments, there is a page… Jesus came to complete the Law and the Prophets. Christianity is completed Judaism".
Believe it or not, there are even rabbis who came to the conclusion that Jesus had something to offer them. Rabbi Dr. Daniel Zion, head rabbi of Bulgaria and of the city of Jaffa, said in a radio interview for Kol Israel: "Jesus did nothing but good for his Jewish brothers in Israel. He called on them to show regret and to return to God. He declared God's Kingdom and called for love, love for all people, even love for enemies."
Many don't realize this, but the famous saying, "Once a Jew, always a Jew", actually originated in relation to faith in Jesus. Rabbi Israel Zolly, head rabbi of Rome during the Holocaust, told how he came to faith in Jesus as the Messiah on the Day of Atonement in 1944, when Jesus came to him in a vision. When asked, "why did you leave the synagogue for the church?" he answered: "I didn't leave… Faith in Jesus is the completion of the synagogue. The synagogue is the promise, and Christianity is the fulfillment of the promise. Once a Jew, always a Jew."
Rabbi Dr. Kaufman said about Jesus: "These are the words of a Prophet, of a fearless reformer. With the same courage of genuine love with which he converted sinners, Jesus also defended the woman in whom the rabbis only saw an instrument in the hands of Satan to entice men to sin, and Jesus shattered the forces making the woman's lot lonely. Jesus was the helper of needy, the friend of sinners, the brother of all sufferers, the comforter of the unfortunate, the lover of mankind, the liberator of the woman, he won and conquered the human heart."
Many other non-Jewish philosophers and educated people also praised Jesus. The famous physician and mathematician, Sir Isaac Newton, considered one of the greatest scientists of all times, said: "I have deep faith in the Old and New Testaments as the Word of God."
Philosopher and Professor C.S. Lewis, also known for his "Narnia" book series , wrote of Jesus: "No lunatic could be the source of psychological understandings so deep and efficient as those of Jesus Christ."
Spiritual leader, Mahatma Gandhi said, "Jesus, who was completely innocent, offered himself as a sacrifice for the good of others, including his enemies, and became the ransom of the world. It was the most perfect act."
Napoléon wrote during his last days: "Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and I have founded empires, but on what did we rest the creations of our genius? On force! Jesus Christ founded his empire upon love; and at this hour, millions all over the world are willing to die for him."
Nobel Peace Prize winner, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said: "Jesus was jealous for love, justice and kindness. In that he rose above his surroundings."
The great scientist, Blaise Pascal, a mathematician, physician and a philosopher, wrote: "There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every man, which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the Creator, made known through the Messiah."
In conclusion, it seems that the emotional manipulation of rabbi Aaron Moss is without basis, and that Jesus has a lot to offer to the thinking person, to every Jew and gentile, and also to you.

The Cleveland Cavaliers' Big Three combined for 97 points on Monday, including a triple-double from LeBron James and 49 points from Kyrie Irving. The defending NBA champions still somehow lost to the New Orleans Pelicans sans Anthony Davis.
James played all but four minutes, Irving all but six, and yet the Cavs lost their fifth game in seven tries for the first time since LeBron returned to Northeast Ohio. And the four-time MVP isn't happy about it, not in the slightest.
James spared Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue from much criticism for his heavy minutes load, if only because, "What else are we going to do?" But his teammates didn't escape the wrath, and Cleveland general manager David Griffin fared even worse in LeBron's lengthy plea to reporters for more playmaking help beyond Irving and Kevin Love.
LeBron even mentioned 36-year-old Dahntay Jones, a seldom-used member of last year's team, as someone who could help.
"It's tough for Coach because we're in the process of trying to win a f***ing championship. It would've been unfair to [Matthew Dellavedova] to ask him his rookie year to play on a championship-level team. So that's why you got guys in front of him that allows him to [grow].
James has been steaming about the team's lack of a legitimate backup point guard and a rim-protecting big man for some time now, and frustration boiled over after recent losses to the title-contending Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs (the latter of which also saw James and Irving play more than 40 minutes).
The Warriors added Zaza Pachulia, David West and JaVale McGee on short money this past summer, just as the Spurs did with David Lee and Dewayne Dedmon. These guys aren't exactly playmakers, but they are bodies, and James seems envious of the depth they provide.
"I ain't got no problems with the front office," said James, via the Akron Beacon Journal.
When most teams lose their best or second-best player for extended time — in this case the greatest basketball player in the world and a four-time All-Star — it's going to put a strain on the roster. Golden State is one possible exception to that rule, and perhaps that's where LeBron's frustration is rooted. Even if he's not willing to call them his rivals, James knows full well the Warriors are the team to beat.
But what is the front office to do? At LeBron's behest, Griffin signed Smith and Tristan Thompson to mega-deals, and the Cavaliers will be paying heavy luxury taxes for a second straight season. Still, they've managed to acquire Channing Frye and Kyle Korver for future draft picks the past two years.
Thompson at whatever cost. This is his team, for better or worse. Of course, that shouldn't excuse Griffin from signing Williams and Andersen over more viable options.
It's just hard. The Cavs have no first-round pick to trade and no cap space to sign anyone beyond the minimum, and their only tradable asset of value is Felder. Would Cleveland be willing to part with helpful 3-and-D specialist Iman Shumpert in a deal for unhappy Chicago Bulls point guard Rajon Rondo? Because they're probably not going to find much better without tinkering with their core.
LeBron isn't too concerned with how the Cavs improve his current crop of teammates. He just knows they need to get better if he has any hope of adding a fourth NBA title in his 14th season and beyond.
Then, the Cavaliers will have an even bigger problem, so it's in their best interest to satisfy their franchise player's desires while he's still in his prime. At the same time, meeting those demands is a whole lot harder than LeBron makes it sound.
Outside of James usurping Griffin as GM and finding out for himself how difficult it is to land playmakers at bargain basement prices, the Cavs might just have to break it to their hometown hero that he's got to live with the roster he's been given. Whether or not James softens on his stance should give us an idea of how equipped he feels they are to repeat.


The headline is certainly going to raise some dander on the left. I did not ask, "Does the radical left hate American values?" because that question is already answered by the words and actions every day in a thousand ways.
Even though it is obvious, I suppose it deserves some explanation. In terms of America as a nation with noble values, which side wants to change the very core values of the nation as carefully crafted by our Founders? Which side rejects the Founders' universal belief in a very LIMITED federal government – with limited taxing and regulatory powers?
The Founders saw the potential danger of a national income tax to enable the federal government to expropriate too much of the people's wealth – and to use the money to excessively empower a distant elitist government in the nation's capital. The specifically forbade the income tax as part of the Constitution. That changed in the early 1900s, when the rise of radical progressivism within the then-ruling Democratic Party – under the leadership of such people as President Woodrow Wilson – passed a constitutional amendment to impose the income tax.
The Founders gave us the Tenth Amendment, which says that any power that is not SPECIFICALLY granted to the federal government remains with the several states and the people. Activist (meaning liberal) Supreme Courts – the most autocratic of our three supposedly co-equal branches of government – have found numerous ways around that portion of our Bill of Rights.
For almost 200 years, free-market capitalism has been the economic foundation of America's high standard of living – with socialism as the dark alternative. That is because big government taxing and spending – ultimately socialism – requires an elite ruling class. It requires a semi-permanent (and eventually, permanent) ruling establishment. The more powerful the federal government, the weaker is the ability of we the people to influence their government. Socialism is top-down governance.
A positive and proudful belief in a national culture, national ideals and civic nobility is, by definition, patriotism. The radical left burns the flag, disrespects the National Anthem and rejects the concept of American exceptionalism. They reject peaceful assembly and free speech in favor violent protests and censoring the voice of the people.
Protesting – including desecration of the flag and demonstrable disrespect for the National Anthem — IS protected by the full meaning of the First Amendment, but it is noteworthy that it is the left that takes advantage of that freedom to mount a broad-brush assault on the very Republic for which they stand.
The left is no fan of the Constitution. They openly declare it to be a "living document" – subject to change by contemporary whims or political advantage. The Constitution is to be capriciously reinterpreted by left-wing judges ruling according to the progressive politics of the day rather than the fundamental principles of personal freedom. When the left cannot change the Constitution, or have it politically re-interpreted, they will simply defy it.
While the left pays lip service to the highly vaunted rule-of-law, they are quick to ignore law, whether in the streets or the offices of government. Rioters, arsonists and looters are rarely arrested and prosecuted for the damage, mayhem and even their deaths they may cause – claiming such criminal actions are protected free speech and assembly. Liberal mayors have actually ordered the police to "stand down" as private property is destroyed and personal safety imperiled. It is the left that brazenly refuses to enforce our laws at the border. They defy the law by creating "sanctuaries" for law violators.
