" No Photo ID Required to Vote in GOP's Iowa Caucus	"
No Photo ID Required to Vote in GOP's Iowa Caucus
By Brad Friedman on 12/28/2011, 9:30am PT
For all of their years of claims that massive voter fraud is going on at the polling place, such that Photo ID restrictions are required to ensure the integrity of the vote, you'd think that when Republicans have a chance to run their own elections, they'd be sure to want it to be as "fraud" free as possible.
Nonetheless, despite onerous polling place Photo ID requirements now passed into law in about a dozen states where the GOP controls both the legislative and executive branches, voters will be able to cast their ballot in next Tuesday's "First-in-the-Nation" Republican Iowa Caucuses without bothering to show a Photo ID --- even though the Republican Party itself sets their own rules for voting there.
Unlike most primary elections where an official state election board or agency sets the rules and runs the registration and balloting processes, the Iowa Republican Party runs its own state caucuses, determines the rules, tabulates all the votes and announces the results to the public and media themselves. They have complete control over the entire process, and yet they don't bother to ask their own voters to show a state-issued Photo ID before casting their ballot.
I wonder why that would be?
Actually, I don't. I know exactly why that's the case. Polling place photo ID laws, passed in states where Republicans took control in the wave election of 2010, are instituted for one purpose and one purpose only: to suppress the votes of voters such as the elderly, minorities and students, all of whom have a dastardly tendency to vote for Democratic candidates rather than Republicans. Since only Republicans are on the IA Republican Caucus ballot, unlike general elections, the GOP has no interest in disenfranchising their own voters.
While the GOP likes to claim they're attempting to institute these laws to curb "voter fraud", they're unable to show evidence of virtually any polling place impersonation that would supposedly be prevented by such laws. For example, in rejecting the South Carolina GOP's new Photo ID restriction last Friday, finding that that the state's own statistics showed the law would be racially discriminatory, the U.S. Dept. of Justice noted [PDF] that the state failed to point to "any evidence or instance of either in-person voter impersonation or any other type of fraud that is not already addressed by the state's existing voter identification requirement and that arguably could be deterred by requiring voters to present only photo identification at the polls."
That, even as independent study after study have documented how hundreds of thousands of perfectly legal voters are likely to be disenfranchised by such laws.
Of course, if "voter fraud" was truly a concern of the Republican Party, surely they would require that Iowa caucus goers present a Photo ID before casting their vote. But, because such laws have never been about "voter fraud", once again this year, the Party will not bother to require Iowa Republicans to present any such ID before voting in the all-important caucuses next week.
According to their own "Bullet-Point Guide to the 2012 Republican Party of Iowa Caucuses", as posted at the state party's website last week, only new registrants, those registering to sign up with the Republican Party and vote on the same day at the caucus, will be asked --- but not actually required --- to show Photo ID...
Do you have to be registered Republican to participate in the Republican caucus? Yes. In order to participate in the Republican caucus, one must be a registered Republican in the state of Iowa. You do have the opportunity to register as a Republican at the caucus, provided that you have a valid photo ID with your current address on it (such as your Iowa driver's license) or a photo ID and a document that proves your residence (such as a utility bill). For more information, visit: http://sos.iowa.gov/elec...oterinformation/edr.html.
As the information at the above-linked website of Iowa Secretary of State and Commissioner of Elections Matt Schultz (R) details, a Photo ID isn't actually even necessary to register and vote on Election Day either! Any Iowa citizen 18 or over can register as a Republican and then vote in the Republican IA Caucus without a Photo ID being required of any of them.
The IA Sec. of State's website notes (and as I confirmed with them yesterday):
If you cannot prove who you are and where you live with the documents [ed note: such as Photo ID] listed above, a registered voter from your precinct may attest for you. Both you and the attester will be required to sign an oath swearing the statements being made are true.
Falsely attesting or being attested for is registration fraud. It is a class "D" felony and is punishable by a fine of up to $7,500 and up to 5 years in prison.
Cheryl Allen at the Sec. of State's office confirmed to me Tuesday that while showing Photo ID is the "easiest way" to register to vote there, it is by no means a requirement. Folks without Photo ID are allowed to sign a simple oath, along with one attester, in order to verify that they are who they say they are.
So not only is it possible to register and vote on the same day in Iowa --- something that Republicans have fought against allowing for most citizens in most other states --- one doesn't even need a Photo ID to do it, in an election where the Republicans themselves set all of the rules.
It's almost as if they realize that risking disenfranchisement of any of their own voters in their own caucus would be monumentally stupid --- not to mention potentially illegal and/or unconstitutional to boot, though that has yet to stop them from doing the same in general elections where Democrats may be on the ballot.
Too bad 96-year old Dorothy Cooper and 93-year old Thelma Mitchell from TN and 84-year old Ruthelle Frank from WI, just to name a very few, aren't residents of Iowa. They'd actually be allowed to vote in the much-ballyhooed First-in-the-Nation Republican Iowa Caucus without a problem --- just as they have been doing in their own states for decades....until Republicans in those states decided to change the rules this year and make it much more difficult, and/or potentially expensive, to exercise their once-free right to vote.
I attempted to reach out to the Iowa GOP's Communication Director for comment on all of this yesterday, via both phone and email, but those messages have yet to be returned.
One last point for now...since it's repeated so often in defense of indefensible Photo ID laws, and so few respond to the misleading claims with the truth. Next time you hear a supporter of one of these voter suppression laws claim, as they do in their usual talking points, that Photo ID is required to fly on a plane or to buy a beer or a pack of cigarettes, so why not for voting? Please let them know that, no, Photo ID is not required to fly on a plane, as the commercial airlines are not about to keep millions of Americans who don't have such IDs from flying. Furthermore, while I've purchased cigarettes and beer many times over the last several decades, I can't recall the last time anybody ever required me to show a Photo ID before doing so.
Nonetheless, even if Photo ID were required for each of the transactions mentioned above (and it isn't) each of those transactions are privileges in this country, as opposed to Constitutional rights, which cannot be infringed upon. Apparently the Republicans, in Iowa at least, are smart enough to appreciate that --- at least when it comes to running their very own elections.
UPDATE: As Eric W. Dolan at RAW STORY points out, in picking up on our story, earlier this year, Iowa state Republicans in their statehouse passed a Photo ID restriction law, as sponsored by Republican Sec. of State Matt Schultz. The measure, thankfully, died in a Senate committee. And yet, when state Republicans had the chance to set any rules they wanted for voting in their own caucuses for President next week, they declined to require Photo ID of their voters. So what does that tell ya?

Dear GOP Iowa caucus participant,
Please be advised that your vote has been removed to an undisclosed
location for our your safety and convenience.
D. Cheney
http://www.politico.com/...sed-location-108812.html
Thanks for the politico link, D. Cheney.
The idea of the GOP counting votes at an undisclosed location calls to mind Brad Friedman's previous observations about the 2004 Presidential Election when Ohio's "election night reporting website went down late in the evening, was moved to the 'back up servers' of a far Rightwing firm in Chattanooga, TN, before coming back up to show that George W. Bush had taken the lead over John Kerry."
Brad went on to note:
That system was created by Mike Connell, the GOP's IT guru who, in 2008, was subpeonaed for a deposition in a long-standing 2004 election fraud suit, only to die in a mysterious plane crash just weeks after the election, before he could testify in open court. Computer security experts have long charged that the results of Ohio's '04 Presidential election may have been compromised by a so-called "man in the middle" computer attack as the servers changed locations that night.
Take heed, Ron Paul.
... Ralph	said on 12/28/2011 @ 9:46 pm PT...
I really don't believe the GOP cares who wins this terrific vaudeville show. They already have their sure-fire back-up republican.
Barrack Obama.
Sad, but true.
... Richard	said on 12/28/2011 @ 10:39 pm PT...
They (Republicans) have complete control over the entire process, and yet they don't bother to ask their own voters to show a state-issued Photo ID before casting their ballot.
So they can claim fraud after Ron Paul wins and try to use that to smear him before New Hampshire.

Do you look younger than 21....if you did you'd be carded. Last time I flew (August 2011) I had to present photo ID to pick up my boarding pass. So did everyone if front of and behind me in line. I'm not buying your argument. You'll have to do better.
LFR foolishly wrote:
As I noted, buying Beer is a privilege, unlike the Constitutional right of voting. If you're in favor of infringing on such rights, then your war is with the Constitution, not me. I'm defending the Constitution in the meantime.
As to your flight in August 2011, no, you didn't have to present a Photo ID. You were asked for one, and you presented it, but you, by no means, were required by law to present one. But if you've convinced yourself that the commercial airline industry is denying millions of customers from flying on their planes because they have no Photo ID, then that's your own foolishness. I think you should do better than that. But, apparently, you don't want to.
In the meantime, apparently, you're also in favor of the GOP allowing "voter fraud" in their own caucus, eh?
Yeah. You'll have to do better. But you won't.
... U. Cover said on 1/3/2012 @ 5:28 am PT...
I wish photo ID were required to fly. It would make the damned crowded and uncomfortable flights much more pleasant. And since some people put so much value on a photo ID, maybe the airlines would let me have water and keep my shoes on, too...
Seriously, this post should be required reading in high school social studies or government classes. Voting is so much more than a free right of every adult citizen. It is the obligation of every adult citizen. We should be setting up transportation to polling places, not barring entry.
... It is I only said on 1/3/2012 @ 2:48 pm PT...
I think that Russia, Iran, Syria, Nth Korea,Venezuela,Cuba, should send observers to the US election & monitor that everything is democratic,free, & above boards!

Muschamp discusses Weis at Gator Bowl presser
By Adam Silverstein
In Jacksonville, FL to promote the 2012 Gator Bowl alongside Ohio State Buckeyes interim coach Luke Fickell, Florida Gators head coach Will Muschamp spoke less about the game and more about the breaking news that offensive coordinator Charlie Weis decided to accept the head coaching job with the Kansas Jayhawks.
"Charlie took the University of Kansas head football job today. He informed me about a couple of hours ago. I'm very happy for him and his wife Maura. I'm really excited for them," he said after making an opening statement. "Getting an opportunity to be a head coach, it's a great compliment to our staff. We've had numerous schools contact me about prospective coaches on our staff. For him to have the opportunity to be a head coach again, I know he's really excited about it, and we certainly wish him all the best."
Though the news comes as a shock to Florida fans, Muschamp said he was aware that Weis was interested in the position and does not have any problem whatsoever with him taking it even after he promised to be in Gainesville, FL long term.
[EXPAND Click to expand and read the remainder of this post.]"In the recent days he was contacted about the job and we talked about it, and he told me it was an opportunity that he wanted to take. I support him 1,000 percent," he said. "Any time – in our profession is no different than the business world – when you're able to take a step up, I support it 1,000 percent. In a situation when you're a coordinator and you got an opportunity to be a head coach, I support it 100 percent. That's what he wanted to do.
"I asked him and said, 'Is this something you're really interested in?' He said, 'Yeah, I want to talk to them. If I wasn't interested, I would not talk.' So I said, 'I support you 100 percent if that's what you want to do. I think that's great.' Now when guys make parallel moves, I don't think that's great. If guys can further their careers, I think that's great."
"There aren't many opportunities you get to be a head coach," Muschamp added. "I know with Charlie, the last one didn't end the way he wanted it to. He's an outstanding football coach. He's a family man, and I'm extremely happy for him and his wife, Hannah and Charlie, Jr."
He also noted that Weis's supersized contract doesn't hurt the decision-making process.
"When you talk about a five-year contract and the amount of money that people are willing to pay you nowadays, quite frankly I don't blame him. That's what happens. That's the reality of coaching and business," he said.
Muschamp was also asked to evaluate how Weis did in a Gators polo and said he appreciated how much effort put in even if things started faltering after redshirt senior quarterback John Brantley got injured on Oct. 1.
"I think Charlie did a good job," he said. "Obviously we had an awful lot of confidence offensively going into the fifth ballgame of the year. We lost our starting quarterback and we played with two freshman quarterbacks – who are going to be outstanding, who are very good players, and I'm very excited about their future.
"At the end of the day we had the injury, we lost some confidence offensively, we got out of kilter, we started searching for answers and things we can do against good people. When you lose that confidence, it's tough to regain that confidence. Considering the situations and the circumstances, I'm very pleased with the job he did."
Weis's Florida offense finished 102nd nationally in yards per game (334.17) and 72nd in scoring offense (25.58 points per game). He will take over a Kansas program sorely in need of a boost after a multi-year downturn.[/EXPAND]

Will W says:
Good luck front butt – you'll need it. Not sure why anyone is really upset to lose Weis. He had 3 senior playmakers in the backfield and had the 100+ ranked offense in the country. Not what I call a "brilliant" job from an offensive mind. I am more concerned that this is another sign of Coach M's bad decision making. He hired a guy that didn't fit and left at his first chance.
Gatorgrad79 says:
Will – do you honestly think that Muschamp hired Weiss all alone?! That hire has Foley's fingerprints ALL over it ( and while we're talking about decision making – Foley hired Muschamp, too…)

Anna Pedrosa had worked in all forms of media before God thrust her into the mission field. Though her education and experience were in the field of communications, she also discovered a God-given gift for teaching children.
Her first experience with cross-cultural ministry and teaching began in 2008 when a door of opportunity opened to teach and be a housemom to teenage girls in Cambodia. She taught elementary computers, and high school ESL, while discipling nine young women in the Word of God.
In 2010, Anna moved to Uganda, with a great desire to be better equipped for her calling as a teacher. She completed her Masters degree in Theological Studies with a Christian Education emphasis at Westminster Theological Seminary in Entebbe, Uganda, graduating in December 2013.
While working on her degree, she taught children at a local church and at a community-based Christian school in Kampala – Jesus in the Truth (JITT) Nursery and Primary School.
Anna saw the ministry of the school as the outworking of God's command to the church in Matthew 28:18-20. The school was envisioned to be a venue for the discipleship of students, teachers, and families in the Word of God. By God's grace, it has aided in raising up a new generation of Acholi Christians who love God, obey Him, and follow His commands. Anna then served as the head teacher of Jesus is the Truth Nursery and Primary School until 2016 when she returned to the Philippines.
Anna's ministry to women, young adults, and children continues in the Philippines, both in San Pedro, Laguna and Montalban, Rizal. Some of her specific ministries include working with a church plant in Montalban, a remote area of the Philippines, and feeding and educating children, many of whom are part of the indigenous Aeta tribe that have migrated from further north.


Lutron Caseta vs. RA2 Select — What's the Difference?
When trying to decide between the Lutron Caseta vs. RA2 Select, you're really looking at two quality smart lighting systems that are better suited for different situations.
With the Lutron Caseta Wireless, you'll enjoy an accessible and easy-to-install system with integration with a wide number of products. It's the perfect option for smaller homes and those looking for the perfect DIY smart lighting system. However, if you plan on installing more than 50 devices in one lighting system, you should definitely go with the Lutron RA2 Select.
But, first things first, let's check what the two systems have in common before we get to their differences to help you decide the better Lutron lighting solution for your home.
Comparing the Lutron Caseta vs. RadioRA 2 smart lighting systems can be a difficult task, as they are designed on completely different scales.
For smart functionality in a small home that works right out of the box, the Lutron Caseta is difficult to beat. The RadioRA 2, on the other hand, is the ultimate in smart lighting configuration. It's seriously expensive but, if you're willing to shell out a bit, it's one of the best options for bigger homes and businesses.
In 2017, many people have started to recognize that the idea of a smart, interconnected home may be more possible than ever before. With recent advancements in technology, functionality that was previously reserved for the wealthy techie is now accessible to pretty much everyone. If you're looking into a smarthome, you probably already know some of the basic functionality — and one of the major benefits of a smarthome is on-demand control of dimmers, outlets, and switches.
Each Decora Series has it's own benefits, and we'll compare them to the Lutron Caseta Wireless System.
Both Leviton and Lutron will serve as a welcome addition to any connected home, but there are some aspects that are worthy of note. We'll go over some of the main differences below, and try to give you a sense of which device is right for you.
Lutron Caseta vs. Maestro Wireless — What's the Difference?
Lutron was one of the first companies to offer smart home lighting. Besides standard dimmers and switches, Lutron has two wireless collections for smart homes — Caseta Wireless and Maestro Wireless. Products from both collections use Lutron Clear Connect technology to provide comfortable remote control of dimmers and switches. And while the two collections are very similar, there are some major differences between them. We've compared the differences of Lutron Caseta vs. Maestro Wireless to help you choose the right one for your home.
LIFX Z vs. Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus — What's the Difference?
Finding the right lighting for your home can be tough task. There are so many spaces where traditional light just doesn't quite fit. You want something more than functional, and at the right price. Lightstrips are an option away from traditional lamps in the corner of a room or bulbs hanging from the ceiling. And they can provide (offer?) excellent light in areas most can't even imagine, with added features that only smart lighting can provide.
With so many smart lights to choose from, this article is going to help you to compare and contrast the features of two lightstrips: the Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus vs. LIFX Z. We'll take a look at the features and differences to help guide you on the better choice for your home.
Both products are fantastic for under cabinets, television stands, computer desks, and basically anywhere your imagination says, "Yeah, lighting there would be a huge plus." After going over the differences, we've put together a table that will show the products and their features side-by-side, followed by a sort of wrap up. So, with that all said, let's look at both the Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus and the LIFX Z.
Philips Hue Lightstrip vs. Plus — What's the Difference?
If you're looking to light your home in a stylish, functional way, Philips Hue products are a great place to start. Offering tons of different features, Philips Hue lightstrips are wonderful examples of what smart home lighting can do for your home — and at a fair price. The only difficulty is trying to choose which lighting suits you best. This article is going to compare and contrast the differences between the Philips Hue Lightstrip vs. Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus.
But first, let's mention the features that you can look forward to with both the Philips Hue Lightstrip and Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus. Both lightstrips offer smart control, away-from-home control, light schedules, comfort dimming, being able to choose from millions of colors, and syncing with music and movies. All of these give you way more functionality than traditional lightstrips. And with that said, what about the differences between the two?


When a weekend in the great outdoors is on your list, don't let a heavy pack hold you back. The Gregory Paragon 58 Backpack gives you room to bring along the gear you want without making sacrifices, while simultaneously shaving weight to keep you light on your feet. With a minimalist mindset, this pack lets you cover long distances on overnight trips.
The Aerolon suspension system wraps hollowed out aluminum stays in a matrix ventilation system to keep the pack surprisingly supportive, given its light weight. The Aerolon system also features 3D-molded EVA at the shoulder straps and waist belt for cushy comfort.
Whether you use the zippered bottom compartment or external straps, the Paragon makes sure your sleeping bag isn't just crammed along for the ride, but secured in a space-efficient manner. The hydration sleeve not only keeps your water close by, but also doubles as a removable Sidekick daypack for quick day trips, summit hikes, or supply runs into town on a thru-hike. There's also a Gription lumbar pad for extra support, and the entire system adjusts vertically and horizontally for a customized fit.
I was given the Gregory Paragon 58L by Backcountry to test. The following review is solely my personal opinion and not influenced by either Backcountry or Gregory.
Overall I really liked the pack. I found it to be well thought out, well made, comfortable, lightweight, and durable (so far). My only complaint is one of capacity. For a backpacking backpack, I would prefer something with around 70 liters of capacity. If, however, you are looking for a slightly smaller capacity pack, I would strongly suggest you look at this excellent offering from Gregory.
I recently got to test out the Gregory Paragon 68 pack as a ranger for the Dyrt and it was really an incredible upgrade from my previous equipment. One of the major advantages to this pack is the weight. It is so much nicer to cut off those extra lbs when climbing the hills in the woods of Alabama. I felt like I had the ability to be more flexible with the gear I brought since the pack weight was so much less. Additionally, the pack is super comfortable and even after covering 7 miles in 2.5 hours my back was not sore or tired at all. The straps sit really well on my hips and are well padded. The pack also had very well designed pockets for all your gear. The hip belt pocket had a large enough space to hold my iPhone which was a big plus and the water bottle holder on the side has both a top and a side access. Another cool feature of the pack is that it has a summit pack built in that doubles as a water reservoir holder to keep everything dry. Overall I would highly recommend checking out this pack if you are planning to do backpacking where weight will be a factor.
Okay, I'll just throw this right out there from the beginning...I am biased... but I'm also demanding, critical and honest. So if a product lives up to its claims and survives my demands...I'm a believer!
I previously purchased and enjoy the Gregory Baltoro 85 and Gregory Baltoro 75 GZ (Goal Zero), so when the invitation was extended to test and evaluate Gregory's New Paragon 58, I jumped at it. As a review ranger for TheDyrt, on occasion I am honored with these opportunities.
I have used various big name brands of backpacks over the past 30+ years and settled in on Gregorypacks.com.
For those new to researching for a new pack, go back a couple years to 2015 and note Gregory's Baltoro 85 was presented both Backpacker Magazine's Editor Choice Gold Award and Outside Magazine's Gear of the Year Award. Which caught my attention.
Sizing: All three of these Gregory packs are men's medium. I am 6/180, average build..
At first glance, there were identifiable differences between my Gregory Baltoro "heavy haulers" and the new Paragon 58 other than volume. I deviated from my usual color choice of black (that hides stains well) and chose Omega Blue...which I like, but hope it keeps that clean look. Just hoisting the Paragon 58 reveals immediately the weight difference. At 3.9 lbs its not an ultra-light, but it carries even lighter by perception.
The Paragon 58 is classified as a weekend tripper. I was able to pack enough for 4-5 days, tipping the scales at 40 lbs. I immediately noticed a difference from the Aerolon Suspension and Matrix Ventilation System with increased breathability and airflow. I was hiking in consistent 90 degree sunshine, and while I was drenched with sweat, I could feel the air circulating on my back. In turn, providing me with increased comfort. When doffing the Paragon 58, it didn't feel as though I was peeling it off my sweat-drenched back.
As for overall comfort, the Paragon 58 adjusted perfectly for my torso, maintaining a snug, stable fit. I experienced no swaying, shifting or imbalance. The Hipbelt sat firmly on my Iliac crest and stayed there, due in equal part to Gregory's design and the Gription material in the lumbar.
The removable SideKick reservoir holder inside the pack, easily detaches and transforms into an ultralite day/summit pack with mesh shoulder straps...should you desire to leave your Paragon 58 at basecamp while you enjoy forays. The SideKick has room alongside your hydration reservoir inside the sleeve, but also has a small external zippered pocket and dual lashing points down the exterior of the entire pack.
The new Paragon 58 also sports a convenient SideWinder waterbottle pocket on the outside right, reachable as you hike. I had no difficulty retrieving and reinserting a water bottle into this SideWinder sleeve. Though thinner diameter bottles may slide out as you don and doff the pack. With a Camelbak 32 oz Eddy, I had to spin the loop on the cap downward to avoid arm swing.
The included rain cover is stowed neatly in its own "labeled" pocket. In fact, most items are labeled on this pack.
One of the biggest grumblings I had/have with the Baltoro packs are the smallish Hipbelt pockets. I can't fit my iphone 7 in them (when housed in waterproof cases). The new Paragon 58 remedied that with two cavernous Hipbelt pockets. One zippered mesh pocket (L) and one zippered nylon pocket (R). The only bummer is, the right concealed pocket is not a WeatherShield pouch like the Baltoros.
I love the pack and look forward to using it on shorter hikes...however, I do wish I would've chose the larger 68...which may have supplanted a Baltoro from my stable. My greatest concern, and the jury is still out on this, the compression and adjustment straps for the shoulder harness have considerably thiner web straps. Though nothing negative has occured as of date...smaller webbing means smaller sewing surface, which increases the possibility of faster failure. That thought is purely personal conjecture at this point.
I really liked the idea behind this pack, especially coming from a trusted brand like Gregory, but when I loaded it with sand-bags to get to ~30 lbs, there was nothing special about it. The load swayed heavily under a weak suspension, and the hip belt fit very small. UL backpackers--especially with a bear vault and 4-5 days of food--still spend the first leg of their trip above 30 lbs, so I was out. I had the same verdict with the Osprey Exos, but at least the Exos had better ventilation on the back panel. Finally, I'm pretty sure it's not possible to fit a bear canister (namely a bv500) in this pack. I'm going to give the Mariposa a try next.
I have an older Gregory Teton 60 (5.8 lbs) I use for backpacking and I have been trying to shed some weight on my gear for backpacking trips. I have looked at many different manufacturers of packs including the cottage companies and their ultralight offerings but I wasn't ready to commit to the ultralight mindset. I have adopted certain ultralight principles though and they have helped me to lower my pack weight. I'm not a thru-hiker so I didn't need an ultralight designed pack but I wanted a lighter weight pack than the one I currently own. I know there are many fans of the Osprey Exos pack but I have had problems with the way Osprey packs fit me. I came across the Paragon 58 and liked that it was in between ultralight and traditional. I ordered it and it arrived yesterday. I have to say that it is a very well thought out and designed pack. I like the integrated day pack/water sleeve idea. I like that I can replace the standard lid with the sleeping bag compartment flap if I desire to trim some weight. I can remove the rain cover to shave more weight. I know the ultralight mindset steers away from pack covers but I have had good luck with them. The cover easily stows into it's own pocket. If I'm not expecting rain on a trip, well now I have an extra pocket to store things. The large stretch outer pocket is a very nice addition and in-line with the ultralight pack designs. I have always liked the way Gregory packs fit me and the Paragon with its range of adjustment, fits quite nicely. I ordered the M/L and dialed in the fit easily because the torso length is adjustable up to 4 inches. The hip belt is adjustable also. I put some gear in the pack; sleeping bag, tent, pad, alcohol cookset, a few clothes and it hardly noticed it. I think this is a well designed pack from a great company.

Holy Terrors: The Book
Holy Terrors: Latin American Women Perform
Edited by Diana Taylor and Roselyn Costantino
Durham: Duke University Press, 2004
Holy Terrors, the book, brings together a divergent group of women artists involved in some of the most important aesthetic and political movements of Latin America. In one sense, these women don't have a lot in common either ethnically or artistically. Diana Raznovich (1945), a feminist playwright and cartoonist from Argentina, descended from Russian Jews who fled the pogroms at the turn of the 19th century and boarded the wrong boat (they thought they were going to the United States). Griselda Gambaro (1928), Argentina's most widely recognized playwright, is of Italian origin. Denise Stoklos (1950), author, director, and Brazil's most important solo performer, comes from the south of Brazil, and is of Ukrainian extraction. Diamela Eltit, born in Santiago, Chile (1949), has a Palestinian grandfather. Astrid Hadad (1957), performer, singer, director, and manager of her show, born in the southern Mexican state of Quintana Roo, is of Lebanese heritage. Jesusa Rodríguez (1955), director, actor, playwright, scenographer, entrepreneur, and feminist activist, is of Mexican indigenous and European ancestry. Sabina Berman (1955), playwright, director, poet, novelist, and film scriptwriter), is of Polish Jewish extraction. Petrona de la Cruz Cruz and Isabel Juárez Espinosa, co-founders of the FOMMA in Chiapas, Mexico, both born in the 1960s, are Tzotzil Mayan and Tzeltal Mayan, respectively. Teatro La Máscara (the Theatre of the Mask), a woman's collective from Cali, Colombia, which started in the early 1970s, includes women of diverse ethnic origins. Teresa Ralli, a founding actor, director, and writer of Peru's foremost theatre collective, Grupo Cultural Yuyachkani, is a Limeña of mixed ethnic origin. Teresa Hernández, from Puerto Rico, is a fair-skinned mix of African, indigenous, and Spanish ancestry that characterizes the mestizaje of the island. The same is true for Tania Brugera (1968), a Cuban performer who explores the long history of extermination and political repression and intervention through her work. These backgrounds attest to the racial and ethnic diversity of Latin America, and make visible a complicated history of Spanish and Portuguese colonialization, mestizaje, slavery, migration, and political turmoil that often results in displacement and exile.
The book also includes scholarly essays on many of the artists represented. Diana Taylor writes on Diana Raznovich, Robert Neustadt on Diamela Eltit, Leslie Damasceno on Denise Stoklos, Roselyn Costantino, on Astrid Hadad, Antonio Prieto Stambaugh on artists Katia Tirado and Ema Villanueva, Teresa Marerro on Petrona de la Cruz Cruz, Marlene Ramírez-Cancio, Vivian Martínez-Tabares, Jose Muñoz on Tania Bruguera. Excerpts of their essays are included for each artist. For the full text see Holy Terrors.

Indie TV: When Auteurs of the Art House Make the Move to Your Living Room
by Andy Greenwald
I recently watched Not Fade Away, a modest 2012 movie about '60s rock and roll that received attention not because of its sterling soundtrack or the chance to see Boardwalk Empire's Jack Huston with an intact face but because of the man behind the camera. The film was written and directed by David Chase, the grand capo of The Sopranos, and it marked his first foray into his beloved cinema after decades spent in the workaday trenches of television. As such, Not Fade Away is well intentioned, smartly conceived, and infused with tangible affection: for the period, for the music, and for the way only movies can take audiences away from their lives — and, it's implied, their living rooms — long enough to provide perspective, relief, or, on occasion, both.
It's also kind of a mess. When watching Not Fade Away, it's impossible to overlook the visible wear and tear caused by endless rewrites, reshoots, and reedits. Whole years vanish in a blink, and others drag like Monday mornings. The tone wobbles like a top; characters flit in and out without warning; central relationships are stitched together with a few stray glances and a lot of smoked cigarettes. Chase has the right story and the right point of view with which to tell it. But he seems to lack the proper vehicle. Not Fade Away is a pilot, not a feature. Spanning two coasts and most of a decade, it has the heft of a great TV series but all the limitations of a two-hour film. It's a tall man in a little car.
I mention this not to highlight the difficulties even masters encounter when switching mediums. Rather, my point is that the strongest work, regardless of medium, services the story in the best possible way. The skill set required to make good television is radically different from what is required to make a good film. The former requires intense collaboration, an indomitable spirit, and an ability to exist simultaneously in the present and in the future. The latter requires cocaine. (I kid! Filmmaking actually demands the patience of a saint and the rhythm of a professional dancer. Beginnings and endings matter so much more in movies; you only get one shot, so you'd better aim at exactly the right target.) One isn't necessarily better than the other. They're just different. We don't expect train conductors to be able to leap into NASCAR just because they both involve engines. Nor should we expect the same sort of effortless jumps from TV showrunners, even those who clearly expect it of themselves.
While Chase spent the bulk of his time on The Sopranos daydreaming about movies, the work he did in those years was instrumental in reversing that very cultural polarity. Thanks to a decade of inspiring, perilous brilliance, TV is now under assault from a jealous cinema. You can see it in the mad transfer of major stars from big screen to small, in the hijacking of network air by adaptations both blockbuster and not, and in the glee with which film directors have been tackling TV. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence but, these days, the money is too.
Still, thrilled as I am at the thought of upcoming, uninhibited hours from the likes of Steven Soderbergh, David Fincher, and Steve McQueen, the migration of heavy hitters across the newly porous border between film and television is only part of the story. Those who become big enough in either medium, be they Matthew Weiner or Michael Bay, will always be able to cross over, should they so choose. What's far more exciting to me is the opportunity now being offered to a generation of smaller-budgeted filmmakers. After years of scratching and clawing for funding, idiosyncratic talents like Jane Campion and Whit Stillman are suddenly in demand from cash-rich, content-poor upstarts like SundanceTV, Amazon, and Netflix. This is great news, and not only for the filmmakers and their long-suffering agents. Because this is not a case of network prestige-hunting or creator slumming. I don't predict many instances of Not Fade Away in reverse: movie directors attempting to stretch two hours of story into 10. Rather, what Amazon and others may have realized is that many of our best indie filmmakers have actually been making television all along.
Don't get me wrong: A movie is still a movie. Campion's An Angel at My Table and Stillman's Barcelona are considered, compact, and complete statements. But it's also possible to pull back and consider those statements as sentences in the service of a larger, interconnected paragraph. Campion's brilliant Top of the Lake (soon to return with a second season!) is enriched and informed by the sum total of her previous work. And while the names and context change in Whit Stillman films — from the uptight WASPs in Metropolitan to the uptight collegians in Damsels in Distress — the themes remain the same. That's the reason Stillman's Amazon pilot, The Cosmopolitans, at first feels so comfortingly familiar: Set in an anachronistic Parisian demimonde of bourgeois expats, it's full of Stillman's trademark dry musing and polite wine-sipping. (And, it must be said, Adam Brody is excellent in the role of Chris Eigeman.) Yet, with its brisk dialogue and complete uninterest in contemporary TV tropes (no dead girls, no bearded best friends, no deer), The Cosmopolitans is also bracingly fresh. After making one film this century, Stillman must be overjoyed at the freedom Amazon has afforded him. And he's responded with his lightest, most beguiling work to date. Making a pilot has allowed Stillman to luxuriate in the pleasures of takeoff without having to immediately worry about how and when he's going to land. (Amazon has not officially picked up The Cosmopolitans to series, but it has ordered additional scripts. Here's hoping.)
The current gold standard for this sort of filmmaking on TV, of course, is Amazon's astonishing Transparent. Creator Jill Soloway cut her teeth working on other people's series: Six Feet Under and United States of Tara. It took her years of hunting and pecking to put together Afternoon Delight, her very fine first feature. But the deep vein Soloway tapped into with that film — of good sex and bad guilt and the strange, blinding ennui of Los Angeles sunlight — could only yield so much in an hour and a half. By bringing her personal, cinematic vision to television with Transparent, Soloway has enlivened both her art and the medium. It's unlike anything I've ever seen on TV and yet TV is the only place it could ever exist.
Transparent is almost impossibly tender and yet so sharply observed it took my breath away. All the highly specific quirks of the kibitzing and kvetching Pfefferman clan — the old vinyl on the shelves, the cereal boxes in the basement, the secrets in the closet — create an atmosphere of dazzling intimacy. The way Soloway notes those details is pure cinema; the way she delicately weaves them all together into a vibrant whole is TV at its generous, expansive best. Transparent has received well-deserved praise for its commitment to inclusion both in front of and behind the cameras. But one of the ways Transparent shows respect to its characters, its subject matter, and, above all, its audience, is through patience. A good TV series, like life, swells and develops at its own inimitable speed. Not that I extended the same courtesy back to the show: I gobbled up all 10 episodes in a single weekend. (More, thankfully, are on the way.)
Many of Soloway's Sundance-scarred peers are now angling for the same privilege. Some, like Lynn Shelton (Humpday) and Miguel Arteta (The Good Girl), have already scored development deals. Others are already well past that. David Gordon Green (George Washington, Pineapple Express, Eastbound & Down) just saw his Amazon pilot Red Oaks get picked up to series. And the Duplass brothers are currently wrapping up production on Togetherness, an HBO sorta-comedy that tackles many of the same issues of intimacy and family that have dominated their more-lauded-than-seen movies. I say the more the merrier. As even the more forward-thinking networks begin to back away from writer-driven oddness and seek solace in the dependability of genre and gore — FX just chose Tyrant and The Strain over my beloved The Bridge; it chose poorly — the rush of hungry filmmakers into television is more than welcome, it's necessary. Think of how many writer-directors are stewing out there in rejection slips and frustration. When is the last time Hal Hartley made a movie? When's the last time Sofia Coppola made one that was worthwhile? Nicole Holofcener, who for years has been brilliantly chronicling the complicated friendships of women of a certain age, must have a TV show in her. (Her most recent film, Enough Said, starring small-screen supernovas James Gandolfini and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, was outstanding; it had the sort of keenly observed world you can sink into like an old couch.) I'd love to see Joe Swanberg take a crack at an ensemble comedy; his Drinking Buddies stumbled beautifully across the straight line that separates Friends from actual friendship. And if I were a Yahoo exec, the first thing I'd do after seeing Dear White People would be to sit down with director Justin Simien and not stand up again until a contract is signed.
Itinerant craftsmen like David Fincher elevate their material in any medium. But these smaller-bore auteurs arrive to television with entire worlds in their heads and loud, distinct voices that, for too long, have struggled to be heard. Unlike their more high-profile peers, they don't come to TV as tourists or gentrifiers. They're simply grateful outsiders blessed with the ability to burrow deeply inside of their subjects and, by so doing, take unique advantage of what has always made television exceptional: the time to tell a long story and the opportunity to deliver it to people directly where they live. I understand why a classicist like David Chase sought transcendence in the art house. But the best place for that sort of deeply felt, intensely personal expression is now in the home.

Q: Windows NT4 stack and heap address space I'm trying to search for an integer value in the stack and heap memory of Windows NT4. This integer is used by another program.
The problem is I don't know the address range of the stack and heap, is there a way to find the range of this address space?
Previously I've tried searching this integer value in the code space by using EnumProcessModules function of PSAPI (a windows api). From this function, I get the addresses containing the modules of the program which I can then search through to find some variables. This technique works for simple programs like Minesweeper, somehow, it fail to find any useful integer or variables in more complex programs.
Thanks in advance to anybody who can help me with this.

Boyfriend, two others nabbed over Kottana Chidyaonga's death
Jan 16, 2020 Archangel Nzangaya Top News 0
Police in Lilongwe on Wednesday night arrested three suspects in connection to the death of 23-year-old Kottana Maria Chidyaonga.
Chidyaonga was reported to have died as a result of a snake bite but an autopsy report has revealed that she was killed with termik.
According to Lilongwe Police Station publicist Joseph Kachikho, the suspects have been identified as Timothy Mtilosanje who was late Kottana's boyfriend, Gilbert Kamaliza and Diana Bhagwanji.
Kachikho said the three are expected to appear before court soon and they will be charged with murder.
On January 3, Chidyaonga reportedly stepped on a snake on the veranda of Mtilosanje's house and reported that she was bitten by the snake before it was killed by the security guard.
Moments after the incident, she a started feeling itching on the inner medial aspect of the right foot and later on, she complained of experiencing lightheadedness.
It was at this moment that she was rushed to Polyclinic for treatment before being referred to Kamuzu central hospital where she died upon arrival.
However, a final autopsy report by a Forensic Pathologist Dr Charles Dzamalala on the body of the 23-year-old, who died on 4th January, indicates that she died of acute poisoning with Termik and not a snake bite.
According to the report which Malawi24 has in possession and signed by Dr Dzamalala on Wednesday, there was no evidence that Chidyaonga died as a result of a snake bite.
Following the release of the autopsy report, police in the capital city instituted an investigation which has led to the arrest of the trio.

With growing preferences for online transactions during holiday shopping periods, consumers and businesses are looking for companies that can fill their needs whether they're searching for them from their mobile phone, tablet, or laptop. That means online businesses have to focus on creating more effective strategies for putting themselves in the line of sight of their target audiences as they conduct searches for what they need.
Since 2016 is just weeks away, it's time to start plotting the best types of marketing strategies to implement. Here are two marketing strategies that deserve attention in 2016.
Internal links are the connection points within a website's fabric that create a stable and clear picture for the user. This picture also helps Google in understanding the logic and meaning of the website's content so Google can rank it properly, and point users to the exact place they want to be.
So, these internal links that help users and Google navigate a website, making them very important. To optimize internal links, create a clear structure where both humans and search engine crawlers are able to get to pages easier (ie, with fewer clicks).
Sometimes, this can be easier said than done. As your website grows with pages, subpages, landing pages and more, this roadmap can become covered with internal links. The more pages you add, the more complicated it becomes to create that clear picture. Even with the various optimization tools available, it can be difficult to know if your site architecture is truly optimized.
Searchmetrics' Link Optimization tool provides help in this regard. It helps you identify the pages that have the highest traffic potential yet currently are the least connected via this internal navigation structure. The tool can calculate the revenue and rankings data of these pages and deliver a report of the ones that offer that maximum return. The tool also provides a way to understand which pages are link-givers, offering the ability to influence and drive traffic more than other pages do. In both cases, this tool leads to more informed decisions about the priority pages for optimization.
With so much more data being collected about online marketing and search marketing efforts, there has to be an intelligent way to organize this information in order to identify the most important areas and deliver a clear framework for future directions in content and SEO strategies. This is where new reporting tools will change your decision-making processes in 2016 and beyond; by requiring less time to compile but delivering enhanced details.
One of the biggest challenges is getting the most appropriate information to the specific group involved in making marketing decisions. With the growing complexity in platforms and roles, there are more roles than ever - from the Chief Marketing Officer and SEO director to the content marketer, site admin, agency and performance marketer. While some of the information they each need may overlap, there are many user-specific data sets that need to be collected and organized. No one has that level of resources to create such user-specific reports, nor would they want to use the bulk of resources on this regular need.
To respond to this need, Searchmetrics also created a Smart Reporting tool to encourage a focus on more detailed, personalized reports. The tool delivers role-specific templates that funnel the specific data that each user needs into a report format quickly. Besides the speed, the main benefit here is the access to only the data necessary for each user to make specific decisions and change their content and search strategies accordingly based on the results.
Implementing these two marketing strategies in 2016 should provide quantitative improvements in your search and content strategy performance. With tailored reports that give you the data you need to make decisions as well as a tool that optimizes your internal links, your target audience will be better able to find your website, and specifically what they're looking for on it.

MIKVA'OT (Heb. מִקְוָאוֹת; "Ritual Baths"), the sixth tractate in the order of Tohorot in the Mishnah and the Tosefta. The tractate consists of ten chapters and deals wholly with the details of the *mikveh. Chapter 1 classifies mikva'ot according to the grade of their purity and purifying effect, from ponds or ditches containing less than 40 se'ah (c. 750 liters; see *Weights and Measures) and therefore invalid, to those of the highest grade, consisting of mayim ḥayyim ("pure spring water"). Chapter 2 discusses cases of "doubtful impurity" (e.g., if a person is not sure whether he has immersed properly or whether the mikveh was ritually fit), and then deals with the problem of mayim she'uvim ("drawn water"). Chapters 3 and 4 continue with various aspects of mayim she'uvim, e.g., how a mikveh invalidated by mayim she'uvim can be made rituallyfit, or how to direct rainwater from a roof into a mikveh without letting the water pass through a "vessel" in order to prevent the water's becoming mayim she'uvim. Chapter 5 deals mainly with the fitness of springs, rivers, and seas as mikva'ot. Chapter 6 is concerned with the question of a body of water linked with a mikveh, or two mikva'ot connected so that the water of the one "touches" the water of the other (hashakah), which is of great significance in the construction of the modern mikveh. Chapter 7 discusses the minimal requirement of 40 se'ah, especially whether snow, ice, etc. may complete that measure. Chapter 8 first deals with the halakhic difference between mikva'ot of the Holy Land and those of other countries; it then discusses problems touching on seminal issue and menstruation. Chapter 9 discusses the problem of haẓiẓah ("interposition"). Chapter 10 deals with vessels or any other artifact requiring purification in a mikveh.
The Vienna manuscript of Tosefta Mikva'ot contains seven chapters (and is missing one page, containing the end of the third chapter through the beginning of the sixth chapter), while the printed edition contains eight chapters. The Tosefta quotes traditions about queries raised by the inhabitants of "Assia" with the scholars of Jabneh during the three pilgrim festivals (4:6); about R. Gamaliel and Onkelos the Proselyte bathing in the sea at Ashkelon (6:3); and about discussions which took place among 32 scholars in Lydda (7 (8):11). Although there is no Babylonian or Jerusalem Talmud on Mikva'ot, several of its Mishnayot are explained in the Babylonian Talmud; for example, Mishnah 4:1 is explained in Shabbat 16b, Mishnah 7:2 in Yevamot 82b and Zevaḥim 22a, Mishnah 7:4 in Shabbat 144b, Mishnah 8:4 in Ḥullin 24b, Mishnah 9:1 in Shabbat 57a, and Mishnah 9:5 and 6 in Shabbat 114a. The Mishnah of this tractate was translated into English by H. Danby (1933) and the Soncino Press (1948), while J. Neusner has recently published a translation of both the Mishnah (1991) and the Tosefta (2002).

The Michigan Nurses Association saves time and money with their new site, allowing them more time for their work in continuing education and advocacy.
We're proud to partner with the strong men and women of Michigan Nurses Association and the nurses they represent who work hard to provide quality care in Michigan every day.
Their new site is a workhorse for this hard-working organization, and is a lot to maintain (especially when it comes to new and events), so it'll save them time and money, which they can apply to better uses — like continuing education for nurses, and advocating for The Safe Patient Care Act.

Corey Grace—a handsome and charismatic Republican senator from Ohio—is plunged by an act of terrorism into a fierce presidential primary battle with the favorite of the party establishment and a magnetic leader of the Christian right. A decorated Gulf War pilot, Grace insists on voting his own conscience rather than the party line, and this stubborn independence—together with his growing romance with Lexie Hart, an African-American movie star—has earned him a reputation as an unpredictable iconoclast. But Grace is still haunted by a tragic mistake buried deep in his past, and now his integrity will be put to the test in this most brutal of political contests, in which nothing in his past or present life is off-limits.
A vivid and sometimes frightening depiction of contemporary power politics, The Race culminates in a deadlocked and febrile party convention where Grace must resolve the conflict between his feelings for Lexie and his presidential ambitions—and decide just who and what he is willing to sacrifice.
