Vermont GOP Senate Candidate Caught Lying Through His Teeth
By David Sirota (Page 1 of 1 pages) No comments
Vermont senior political correspondent Peter Freyne, pictured right, broke a big story this week about Vermont's upcoming 2006 U.S. Senate race. In an exclusive report linked below, Freyne breaks the story about how leading GOP candidate Rich Tarrant is publicly claiming he is pro-choice even though recent documents filled out by Tarrant show the exact opposite. In other words, Tarrant got caught right at the beginning of the campaign lying through his teeth.
Here are the details. Tarrant did an interview with Freyne, starting out saying "I'm so damn honest, I answer every question." Freyne then asked him a round of questions, one of which was about Tarrant's position on abortion. Tarrant, Mr. So-Damn-Honest-I-Answer-Every-Question, three times refused to say whether he supported a woman's right to choose. After the interview, however, Tarrant's campaign manager emailed Freyne to say that Tarrant believes that "the law on this issue is settled and must be respected."
Here's where it gets interesting. Freyne writes "So, Rich Tarrant, the wealthy, wannabe U.S. senator from Vermont, does support a woman's right to choose, right? Wrong." Here's how we know:
"According to a 2003 IRS tax filing obtained after the interview and just before deadline, Mr. Tarrant expresses vehement opposition to safe, legal abortion...The 23-page Form 990-PF was filed on behalf of the Richard E. Tarrant Foundation Inc...Tarrant goes out of his way to make it perfectly clear that not one red cent of his foundation's money will go to an organization that...supports abortion rights."
In other words, right out of the gate, the Republican candidate for Senate is openly lying to Vermonters about his views on a critically important issue. Though Tarrant has pledged to spend up to $5 million of his own money to try to buy the election, no amount of money is going to be able to hide his disgusting belief that he can just go around lying to voters. We're lucky Vermont's Independent Congressman Bernie Sanders is running against Tarrant for the seat - lord knows there are enough slimy characters in the Senate and we don't need to add another one in Tarrant.

You may want to just start with some scraps of fabric from your stash to practice with and learn the technique. Or, if you would like all of your blocks to match, choose coordinating fabrics with a variety of color and tones. It is recommended that your start with at least three different, coordinating fabrics (one light, one medium, one dark). A variety of fat quarters, fat eights, or 1/2 yard cuts will work. If you are using a specific background fabric to unify all the blocks, you'll need a couple of yards.

My daughter's life is celebrated with milestones. And each milestone she hits, I get older. My life used to be marked by milestones, celebrated by my parents. But somewhere along the way, I forgot to look for the milestones in my life.
I sit and reflect upon this because my daughter is about to cross a momentous thresh hold in her life. She is about to graduate from middle school and enter high school. High school. Every child's dream. Every parent's nightmare. While she is ready to hurdle herself into that new environment and meet this new challenge head on, I am ready to take her and move into a cave.
Recently, she had try-outs for the HS cheerleading squad. Every day I would drive her to the HS for her try-outs and sit and wait in the parking lot. This was precisely the same time the HS Lacrosse team was done with practice. The BOY'S Lacrosse team. These boys were not boys. They were "men-lings," somewhere stuck between teenager and adulthood. They towered over my daughter, who is very tiny for her age. They had facial hair and leg hair and for crying out loud, chest hair! How could my baby, my first born, possibly navigate her way through the hallways with these hairy beasts? No. I wouldn't let her.
But I have to let her. She has to cross that milestone and walk over that thresh hold. She's growing up and she's proud of it and so I must let her go. Not completely. Never completely, but stay enough paces behind her so she feels freedom and so I feel I can still be there to catch her if she falls.
She might fall. Maybe even a few times. And sometimes she might fall so far that she might feel that she will never get back up. But I know that despite the bruises and scrapes from all the falling that comes with growing, she will also spread her wings and fly.
Preparation for this momentous occasion called for collecting class photos for a montage the school will play in the background during graduation. One picture in particular, made me stop, take pause, smile, and reflect. It was her third grade picture. Mrs. GaNun. She was the kind of teacher every child should be so lucky to have in their lives. She was strong but gentle, kind but authoritative, creative but structured, a dream come true. This was the year we discovered that my daughter had some kind of a learning difficulty. She was bright, very bright but there was something, a synapse, perhaps, that was not adeptly firing. Mrs. GaNun made it her mission to reach my daughter and more importantly, to teach my daughter what tools she needed to bring information into her long-term memory bank.
I stared at the faces in the photo, scanning to find my Emily. There she was in the front row, first one on the left. What I saw broke my heart wide opened and love oozed out in ways I cannot fully express. Why hadn't I seen her expression before? Was I too busy? Was I too "in the moment" to see what was before me?
All the kids, all 20 of them to be exact, had broad smiles on their faces. The children in the front were clearly instructed to clasp their hands in front of them. And there was my daughter, even at that age, smaller than the rest. She did not have a smile on her face, the only child. She had an expression of timidity, a lack of courage or self-assurance. Her head, slightly tilted to her left, eyes wide, staring straight at the camera, her shoulders elevated just a tad, reaching for her earlobes. What struck me the most were her hands. Instead of being gently clasped in front of her, her wrists were crossed and then her hands were clasped. Where everyone else had a symbolic ring in front of them, she had a knot. Maybe she didn't understand the directions of the photographer but to me, knowing her plight, knowing the discoveries made that year, she looked protective. Afraid.
As I stated earlier, it broke my heart; wide open.
I realize now, this was her journey and a necessary one. She needed to know her learning style, her strengths and weaknesses so she could attend to them. She needed to shine the light on herself in order to radiate later. And radiate she does. She is now fully aware of her needs and one could scarcely know that she has a non-working memory. She knows how to compensate and as a result, she excels.
This discovery brought me to myself. You see, I, too, am standing at a thresh hold of a milestone in my life. And I can learn a lot from my daughter. As I embrace my writing career, my financial insecurity, and the fact that, alas, I am growing older, I see myself in her little third grade face. I, too, have a "learning" difficulty, if you will. My biggest enemy, like all of us, is myself. I still have a long way to go. But I recognize now that if a snapshot of my life had been taken, I would be standing in the front row with my wrists knotted and hands strained, with my shoulders raised, and eyes wide. I, too, would portray one lacking courage or self assurance. But not anymore.
I have stepped into the spotlight and unclasped my hands, relaxed my shoulders, and fixed my eyes on what is ahead for me. There are many problems still to be solved but one I will not need to solve again is this: I am a writer, have always been a writer, and will always be a writer. I accept that my fate is unknown, that there is much hard work to be done, but now I know in my heart that no matter where life takes me, it is where I am meant to be, and I will have the tools I need to take me there.
Five years later, my daughter's 8th grade photo portrays a very different Emily. Hands at her sides, shoulders relaxed, eyes on the camera, and a smile on her face.
She is ready for her calling, ready for her milestone, and now, so am I.
I adored this post on so many levels ... has your daughter read it? Simply beautiful and inspiring, Sheri!
Thanks Kelly. Sorry for the long delay in a response. I've been away from my blog for so long I assumed no one read it anymore... Glad to see you did!
I NEED to do this more for the sake of my sanity more than anything else, even grown-ups need encouragement sometimes. Thanks for sharing.
Don't worry, that's a good thing.

These are really good crowds for a runoff a few weeks after a major election. Usually GOP crowds struggle in these situations. Speaks well of the base's opinion of her. Not that the base's opinion of her is in doubt.
If Saxby wins by a decent margin he had better remember who helped him do it. Had he been a stronger conservative in office he wouldn't have needed a runoff to begin with.
I hope Sarah continues to get around the country (and to at least a few foreign countries) during the next two years. I'd suggest she get to Iraq PDQ, not just to see her son but also to meet with the government for a day or two.
Perhaps to Russia for trade talks.
stated much of what was in the article.
Great to not hear a Lib bashing for a change.
Gov. Palin brings out the base for sure.
" Palin promised a GOP that was both conservative and oriented to the American working class."
I dearly hope she can deliver, because that is the only way we can win.
Can someone explain Mr. Baxter's gratuitous 'downtrodden' remark ?
She can't say it yet...to close to the recent election... but she knows that McCain disappointed BOTH social and fiscal conservatives.
He did not offer his own tax cut plan.
He did not feature issues like life, abortion, marriage, guns, self-defense, judges, etc.
I'd really like to see Sarah reading (and governing) from the same playbook that such heroes as Margaret Thatcher,Winston Churchill and Ronald Reagan used. After her return to AK, I suggested as much to her in my "Thank You" email to her.She would be a force to be reckoned with,and that's putting it mildly. We will see a much smarter,much stronger Sarah in 2012,and all I can say is, look out leftists!!!
" "They've got no money," Baxter noted. "
There's the Republican mindset in a nutshell.
"Don't go messin' with them Republicans if you ain't got no MONEY!"
Our local Atlanta political go-to guy (who is usually very astute) said this a.m. that unless Martin gets out every left wing voter in the state, Chambliss wins big.


The below article was written by Dr. Eugene Murphey and was published in The Tower newsletter of November 2005.
When the United States entered World War II in December 1941 after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, I was just starring medical school at Ole Miss in Oxford. All the medical students, like others all over America, were immediately enlisted and commissioned into military service, either the Army or the Navy by our choice. We were permitted to complete our medical school training in an accelerated program and in a semi-inactive military status until graduation, and then we were commissioned again into active service for our country.
The word commision, according to Webster, implies "a certificate conferring military rank and authority, although I can assure you my authority as a green Army medical officer was very limited. Webster also defines the word as authority to act for, in behalf of, or in place of another," and this brings us by a somewhat devious route to "Christ's Great Commission" given to His followers after His resurrection. This is also the subject of the next stained glass window panel in the west wall of the sanctuary John's Gospel (John 20) tells us that late on the Sunday evening after the discovery of the empty tomb, Jesus' followers gathered together behind locked doors because of their fear of Jewish authorities. Jesus appeared before them, and after identifying himself by His crucifixion wounds, said, 'Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so send I you."'Thus, they were commissioned to go into the world to preach the Gospel and baptize in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. They were given His authority and command to continue to do His work in the world. This event is shown in the window panel with Jesus surrounded by His faithful disciples as He gives them their commission. This message is symbolized a the bottom of the panel by a world surmounted by tie Cross and surrounded by a banner with, on one side n open Bible signifying "The Word to be preached to the world, and on the other side a scalloped shell with falling water droplets signifying Christian baptism.
The adjoining window presents an immediately following event when the faithful were gathered to celebrate the Feast of Pentecost and were visited by the Holy Spirit who made His presence known by tongues of fire over each head. This recalled Jesus' words (Luke 24:49) 'I Myself will send upon you what my Father has promised.' The window shows the gathered disciples each with the flame of the Holy Spirit above his head. The ascending dove of the Holy Spirit is seen at the bottom of the panel. The Commission Window was given in memory of Mrs. Erin Payne Serrill by Mr. H. G. Serrill. The Pentecost Window was given in memory of Mrs. Louise May Baughman by her family, and in memory of Mr. Wilburn Wesley Hunt by Mr. and Mrs. Forest Linton Morgan.

CONCERT REVIEW: Bastille's DOOM DAYS (Part 1) Tour
Bastille brings their intense DOOM DAYS house party to Philadelphia
The dark energy of Bastille's third studio album found a home at the Met on North Broad Street. For the first stop on the band's lengthy "Doom Days (Part 1)" tour, the former opera house served as fittingly opulent venue. The $56 million renovation effort completed last year has restored the Met to a glorious event space audience members of any medium can be proud of. There isn't a bad seat in the house because the space was initially crafted to project voices well beyond their natural reach, so you can feel confident down in the pit or up in the back of the mezzanine. Screens throughout the orchestra level make it easy for fans to see an up close view of their favorite performers, even if they don't have the benefit of front row tickets. A dazzling chandelier glitters over the crowd and the juxtaposition of rough exposed brick against the classical golden features of the mezzanine facade are quintessentially Philly.
A giant lighted sign announced Joywave as the opener long before they took the stage. When they did enter, it is with matching outfits, each evoking a construction worker/gym teacher hybrid, with gloriously rhinestone-studded loafers. However gimmicky their outfits may have looked, they backed up their wardrobe with an excellent set. The lighting for Joywave fluctuated effortlessly from calm and ethereal to discotheque colorful; a jumble of purples and pinks to offset their neon shirts. Joywave has been around since 2010, and they exuded confidence and charisma on stage, even as frontman Daniel Armbruster self-deprecatingly apologized to the crowd for "sucking" on this first stop of the tour.
The acoustics of the historic Met certainly lend themselves to exuberant rock music. Joywave opened with "Like a Kennedy," which was a great way to gently introduce themselves to an audience who is mostly waiting for Bastille. They've structured their set to play to this climate as well, spacing their hit songs throughout their time on stage. More popular tracks such as "It's a Trip!" and "Tongues" played later, as Bastille fans trickled in closer to the main event. Hopefully, this allowed the growing crowd to catch a snippet of something familiar and walk away from the performance as newly converted fans. As Armbruster said, "Hello future Joywave fans!" They closed with their new single "Obsession," and teased their return to Philadelphia to headline their own tour in support of their upcoming third album.
Without the warm glow of the bright Joywave sign, the stage felt almost foreboding between sets; an impression that fit the Doom Days theme, especially once the fog machines kick in and blood red lights flooded the stage. The stage design included multiple platforms, a few sets of stairs, and a unique setup that set the drummer off to one side, facing across the stage rather than out toward the audience. One of the platforms boasted a vintage-looking TV set and chair, while a circular one toward center stage was eventually revealed as a spinning turntable à la Les Misérables.
Bastille took the stage to much excitement promptly at 9PM.
As they started to play, the unique staging began to make sense. Frontman Dan Smith made excellent use of the additional open space, weaving seamlessly between the various set pieces, including the unstable-looking platform that spins him around . During "Two Evils," he perched atop a long stairway, serenading the audience from a spotlight before a bloody-looking moon. The design overall made economic use of the vertical and horizontal space, allowing for a visually interesting performance even during softer tunes that are not necessarily designed to play to a stadium crowd.
For "Flaws," Smith did his best to thwart security by making his way slowly through the crowd, winding between throngs of fans standing on the ground level and up into the orchestra section. It was an excellent performance choice for a song that is raw and emotional; making each note feel personal in a way being removed from the audience on the stage cannot. Immediately after, Smith took a well-deserved break wrapped in a pink hoodie and lounging on a comfy looking couch for "Those Nights."
Throughout their set, a large screen set up behind the band played varied material depending on the song. At times, it was part experimental student film and part overused VHS tape, flashing between grainy blue and red lyrics for "Quarter Past Midnight" and nature footage set behind a window for "Things We Lost in the Fire." A red countdown clock appeared on the wall of a wallpapered room between songs. Every track Bastille played is familiar to the crowd. The energy of their fellow listeners singing along pressed gently against each individual member of the audience. People at every level stood and swayed to "The Waves," "Happier," and the third album's titular "Doom Days." It was a truly audience-forward experience. Despite Joywave's infectious energy, they cannot match the way Bastille unites 3,000+ people in a fervent chorus. (At least, not yet; maybe that will change when Joywave returns in the Spring to headline their own tour.)
Bastille is just beginning a lengthy tour. Doom Days (Part 1) is slated to continue through the end of October, and Part 2 will pick up in 2020 after the band plays a few Club Nights in the UK for November and December. The closest shows will be in Washington, DC on September 21, Pittsburgh on September 22, and NYC on September 24. More info on the Doom Days tour can be found on the band's website.

Living Life in the Rhythm Section: Nathan Hondros reviews 'One Hour Seeds Another' by Andrew Burke
on Jan 29, 2015 August 16, 2021
One Hour Seeds Another by Andrew Burke Walleah Press 2014
One Hour Seeds Another, Andrew Burke's twelfth collection of poetry, is an important book and demands your attention.
This is primarily, of course, because of the quality of the work, which seems to me a landmark in Australian poetry. One Hour Seeds Another is a counterpoint of simple narrative, multidimensional confessional lyrics, complex religious and profane imagery, all beside and within the deceptively simple subjects critics have mislabelled 'quotidian'.
More than this, however, Burke's achievement in One Hour Seeds Another is the fusing together so many of the best tendencies in poetry that it feels like some kind of apotheosis. The ecumenical character of Burke's poetry is also part of the man himself. As Andy Jackson pointed out at the Melbourne launch of this book (https://rochfordstreetreview.com/2014/08/15/a-disconcerting-bravery-andy-jackson-launches-one-hour-seeds-another-by-andrew-burke/), Andrew Burke turns no-one away: '…all poets are colleagues and poetry is democratic in the best sense'.
His refusal to be partisan to one form or school over another means he can move between classifications within a comprehensive and considered poetics, at times within a single poem, and choose his colours from a uniquely diverse and rich palette. Surrealism, jazz, rhythm and musicality, a kind of Australian formalism I'm yet to put my finger on (the whatever-it-is that a Geoff Page and a Robert Adamson have in common), Japanese forms: to Burke, these are tools employed to scratch at the rock face of poetry, not ideologies to use as broken glass in a fist fight. Each tool has an important job to do; no more, and no less.
This, perhaps to his alarm, puts Burke at the forefront of Australian poetry. The fusing of forms and subjects, an interest in most schools of thought without being a crusader for their cause, the sheer breadth and depth of knowledge of prosody, poetry and poetics sits under much of this work. While others are debating how to do the job by tossing useless barbs across the internet, Burke is doing it.
Andrew Burke gives away a rare clue in 'Two Dead Matches': 'Why ask me. I like to live life in the rhythm section.' He is feeling his way through the music of this collection. No prior knowledge of poetics and its controversies are expected or required of the reader; perhaps these poems should be listened to with the body like you would a drum solo, not over-analysed with the mind. They are expressive, emotional and Burke unifies their form with their intent almost perfectly.
For example, 'Shikibu Shuffle', a collaboration with prominent Canadian poet Phil Hall, is in part inspired by Japanese poet Murasaki Shikibu (973 – 1014) and jazz experimentalist Ornette Coleman, and works on a framework of Japanese forms.
Whistling without charts
I praise all swoops and calls
old red-throat has come back
the gentle violin-maker to the countryside
a left-footer's choir
all language metaphor
All this manages to be uniquely Australian (in spite of its bi-national authorship of this one). Even when he messes with Japanese forms and experimental jazz, Burke meets my test for the importation of foreign forms into languages for which they were not intended: e.g., haiku in English must be good English poetry before it can be good haiku. There is a lot of feeling in poems like this, sometimes it only needs to be reached through the musicality of the phrasing and the images set against it. No agenda here, just like Ornette Coleman, who wouldn't expect you to learn anything from him aside from the metaphysical lessons inherent in the experience of his work.
It is poetry like 'Shikubu Shuffle' that also confounds the too often repeated criticism of Burke's work as 'quotidian'. This does his poetry an injustice; if pundits and critics get away with this without appropriate extrapolation, then informed readers who approach this volume with those particular lenses will miss most of the show. True, Burke has in interest in the life he finds around him, but which poet doesn't? Only those who are inept or dishonest. Burke does not embellish his life in the poems that are fitted up as 'quotidian', but takes it as it is and uses it as a framework for wringing out the poetry. And that's how it should be. Poets who only write in aphorisms or 'great thoughts' bundled together in poetic forms or disparate lines too often seem afraid that their skills aren't up to the job of revealing the poetry hidden in their daily circumstances. Instead they retreat into philosophical niceties or form tinkering or abstraction and obscurity. I'll certainly confess this of my own poetry at times, and Andrew Burke was the first to point it out.
Among the extraordinary number of exceptional poems in One Hour Seeds Another are what Burke calls his 'Notebook Poems', which I gather are works masterfully excavated from the back catalogue of notebooks every poet lugs about. In these two poems 'Notebook "singing they sang"' and 'Notebook (Darlington)', I can see an Australian world transmogrified into an apposite and universal poetic representation of human experience. How many other poets can I write that about? 'Notebook "singing they sang"' binds Australian and American cultural influences into something unique: Burke thinks of Kerouac in the sparse Australian landscape, Tom Paxton and the Tasmanian Poetry Festival. He contemplates the music that exists independent of where it is sung. Any one of us could be in 'Notebook (Darlington)'; for instance here I am:
in a cold
hillside morning
a boy repeats his callsign
…………..endlessly
The works to which I will return the most often in this collection are the 'prose poems'. I've thought a lot about these poems, and have discussed them with the poet. They carry a powerful emotional charge. They sneak up on you. 'Late Winter Night' (the form of this one only verges on prose) is a contemplation of time explored through both an evening every one would recognise and 'Berkeley Renaissance' poet Jack Spicer: 'The old dog is snoring…This poem has no birds in it, as Jack Spicer said some time/off'.
The two poems among these that caught me most deeply were 'From The Centre Out' and 'Two Dead Matches'. Although an understanding of Ron Silliman's 'post-avant' treatise The New Sentence is not required to appreciate the expressive power of these poems, it's interesting to recognise that Burke is deliberately building on a tradition in language and poetics with these works. Phrases are repeated, and the poet appears in an almost renga-like dialogue with himself. The narrative and the phrases build and become more moving as each repetition is built upon those before and new lines introduced to elaborate the effect.
At the risk of upsetting people (including the poet) by using the term, 'Two Dead Matches', in particular, is a masterpiece of Australian literature. A review can't do it justice; you have to read it, and I hope you'll agree.
'Last Rites' is another poem alone worth the price of admission for this remarkable book. It's a knot of mortality angst that fuses the modern with the avant-garde. I'm not sure how the critics of the 'quotidian' neatly fit this in their theory:
'I shit with the dead'
How do the dead shit?
Their diners come to feast
corpus delicatus.
And for a final note, the poet who lives his life in the rhythm section summons Igor Stravinsky's Firebird Suite and Karlheinz Stockhausen's Stimmung to sit along side 'tea and finger food/for the living' for last rites. What a magnificent and fascinating synthesis of ideas.
Years ago a friend and I hypothesised that the character of a person can be measured by the books beside the bed he or she wakes up next to. I'll be happily judged for keeping Andrew Burke's One Hour Seeds Another on the bedside table and it'll be there for a long while yet.

Forum Adds Value At APPEX Houston
Activities Begin Sept. 14
The event is AAPG's annual Prospect and Property Expo — known now by the popular acronym "APPEX" — which will be held Sept. 14-16 in Houston at the George R. Brown Convention Center.
This year's fourth annual Houston APPEX will once again offer geoscientists the chance to buy, sell and trade their work in a professional marketplace.
The three-day event, expected to attract over 2,000 participants this year, has lined-up a "power luncheon" speaker to discuss experiences as an independent in the international arena, and also will for the first time feature a new workshop geared for geoscientists who are eyeing international activities, titled "Tools and Techniques for Assessing New-Country Entry."
APPEX, set Sept. 14-16 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, is big enough to accomodate thousands of people who are looking to buy or sell deals and property — and intimate enough for the personal touch.

This "going international workshop," offered by IHS Energy, will be held Thursday, Sept. 16 from 7:30-9 a.m.
The workshop is just one of many new features being added to APPEX this year to give attendees even more opportunities for success.
Among those features is a "Perspectives on the Upstream Business of Oil and Gas" forum, also sponsored by IHS Energy around the theme "The Exploration Dilemma: What is Exploration's Role in Shaping the Energy Future?"
The forum, set from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 14, will address issues such as financial markets, technology, regulations, politics and policies, and is organized into three sessions:
Global exploration opportunities, discovery trends and directions — Experts and executives from various company sectors will discuss industry directions, and will assess risks and rewards to stimulate increased international exploration investments.
North American exploration outlook — Executive views of challenges, opportunities and policy issues.
Investment opportunities.
The forum is the lead-up, of course, to the expo itself, which begins with an Icebreaker at 4:30 p.m. on Sept. 14 and offers the opportunity to find and/or sell ideas, prospects and property.
Other APPEX highlights include:
A "power lunch" on Tuesday, Sept. 14, featuring a talk by John Seitz, geologist and president of Houston-based Endeavour International (and former head of Anadarko Energy). (See North Sea Royalty Idea Paying Off.)
A SIPES/HGS/AAPG short course, "Packaging and Selling Your Prospect: Geoscience, Land and Financial Return — A How-To Guide for Presenting Prospects to Management and Investors," to be held from 1-5 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 16.

On March 31, Hussle was shot and killed outside his Marathon Clothing store in Hyde Park by alleged killer Eric Holder. After the shooting, East held a vigil in New York to honor Hussle.
"I didn't know until I did a tribute for Nip," East revealed about Hussle's influence on his debut album Survival. "I didn't want to talk about anything else. I talked about everything. I got shit about my moms. I got shit about me playing ball. I got shit about me being locked up. I went mad personal and I wrapped it up with a tribute to my boy. Once I said what I said to Nip, I was like, 'We're good.'"

Hussle's immediate impact on the culture was felt by East. "That was my nigga. Anything we did together or anytime I had to be around that nigga, I cherish it," East stated. "It's wack he went out like that. That nigga's a king. Kings ain't supposed to go out like that. But, that's the world we're living in. It's wack he went out like that, but it sharpened me and a million other niggas up. He went out like a G."

The 80 acre site is situated directly alongside the main A40 dual carriageway Euro-route linking Ireland to the M4 motorway.
The site is easy to access using the recently installed flyover from the duel carriageway and new purpose built internal road network, which makes this showground site one of the safest and easily accessible exhibition sites in the UK.
The long wide link roads mean that traffic does not back-up onto the dual carriage way. Access for visitors is easy and even events which attract a large number of vehicles have never seen traffic delays either entering or leaving the site. This is a major advantage of the site in comparison to exhibition venues in urban or very rural locations.


The traditional inn Lehen use mainly meat from their own production. The special specialty of the inn are "Wiener Schnitzel". In the warm season you can enjoy the delicacies at the partial covered terrace.

Q: Share disks through NFS on a CoreOS cluster? Is it possible for a CoreOS cluster to share disk space, e.g. using NFS?  If so, how would one go about this? (e.g. in the scenario where one node has a lot of disk space). This would be useful to avoid having each node have to download and store it's own library of docker images, for instance, or to share home directory space across nodes.
Because we cannot install additional software directly in CoreOS, I imagine one would have to write a container just to install NFS (e.g. nfs-kernel-server on a Ubuntu-based container).
I have no idea if this is possible, but am hoping there's some established way to go about sharing disk space across a CoreOS cluster (after all, seems like a common expectation for a cluster, and perhaps my proposal below is more convoluted than necessary). Just to provide some fodder for feedback, here's what I'm thinking so far:
Providing the host-side of NFS seems like a reasonable docker task, e.g. I imagine a Dockerfile like:
FROM ubuntu:14.04
ENV CLIENT_IP 11.111.111.111
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y nfs-kernel-server supervisor
RUN mkdir /var/nfs && chown nobody:nogroup /var/nfs
RUN echo "/home       ${CLIENT_IP}(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)" >> /etc/exports
RUN echo "/var/nfs    ${CLIENT_IP}(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)" >> /etc/exports
RUN exportfs -a
CMD service nfs-kernel-server start

Where CLIENT_IP was filled out appropriately (and perhaps we need to replace the CMD with a call to supervisord or similar to make this persistent, but you get the idea)
So, how would we link volumes appropriately when running this container? Which volume would we link from the CoreOS host? Or do I need to add something like --net="host" to make the client available?
docker run -v /home:/home nfs-server

It's not at all clear to me how we could implement the client side of things, since once again we would need a container to provide nfs-common, and somehow figure out how other containers could then share that resource (perhaps some appropriate use of --volumes-from?)  I'd love to see an outline of how to go about this, or why it's not possible & if there are better alternatives to address this use case. Thanks!

A: You need to start rpc-mountd and nfsd systemd services and define your nfs exports in /etc/exports file.
Example of cloud-config.yml:
coreos:
  units:
    - name: rpc-mountd.service
      command: start
      enable: true
    - name: nfsd.service
      command: start
      enable: truestrong text
write_files:
  - path: /etc/exports
    permissions: '0644'
    # Change /network-raid with the dir you want to export over nfs
    content: /network-raid/ 192.168.1.0/24(rw,async,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,fsid=0)

I have this setup working with CoreOS v723.3.0.
You can find more about sharing disk through NFS on CentOS on the following links:

*

*https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/coreos-user/-5_r8sAqyPk

*http://blog.scottlowe.org/2015/02/20/config-mount-nfs-coreos/

A: You should be able to mount an NFS volume on the CoreOS host. If there is no userland tools to export a filesystem from CoreOS, you can use Fedora toolbox container provided by the toolbox command.

Former veterinary college dean Peter Eyre is honored
Peter Eyre
Dr. Peter Eyre, of Blacksburg, Va., professor emeritus and former dean of the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia Tech, was honored with an "American Veterinary Medical Association President's Award" for exceptional service to the profession of veterinary medicine during opening ceremonies of the association's national convention in New Orleans.
Eyre has also been honored for service and achievement by a major Canadian university and a distinguished scientific professional society over the past several months.
"The AVMA President's Award is unquestionably one of the most prestigious and coveted honors in the veterinary profession," said Eyre, who served as dean of the veterinary college from 1985 to 2003. "I am deeply honored and very grateful."
During the presentation, American Veterinary Medical Association President Dr. Greg Hammer praised Eyre for the major contributions he had made to the profession of veterinary medicine through his extensive career in veterinary education and research..
In recognition of the major contributions Eyre has made to the field of pharmacology over his career, the University of Guelph has established "The Peter Eyre Prize in Pharmacology" to recognize exceptional student achievement in that field. Eyre helped build that university's pharmacology and toxicology programs in the late 1960s, 1970's, and early 1980's. From these beginnings, a B.Sc. (undergraduate) degree program in Biomedical Sciences developed which is housed in the Ontario Veterinary College, and attracts some 200 students each year.
Finally, the American Academy of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics has honored Eyre with the designation of Emeritus Fellow.
"If I can claim anything remarkable about my career, it is that it was unpredicted and unordered," said Eyre, who continues to teach pharmacology at Virginia Tech and has been very active in the Virginia Governor's School for Agriculture's academic programs. "My life's work has resulted from a combination of intense personal interests with a series of fortunate opportunities that included exceptional colleagues and mentors, and outstanding academic institutions."
Eyre served as the second dean of the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine, and is credited with leading a series of initiatives that consolidated the operating partnership between Virginia and Maryland, fortified the college's political and economic foundations, and developed its programs. He has served on the board of directors and as president of the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges (AAVMC). He also served on the American Veterinary Medical Association's Council on Government Relations, and provided leadership for many other professional associations.
Prior to assuming the deanship of the veterinary college, Eyre served as chairman of the Department of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Guelph's Ontario Veterinary College in Ontario, Canada, where he also served as associate director of the Canadian Centre for Toxicology.
After earning the BVMS degree and the MRCVS diploma in veterinary medicine, Eyre earned B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in pharmacology, all from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland.
As a biomedical researcher, Eyre was responsible for the acquisition and completion of over $1.2 million in sponsored grants and contracts, and authored 350 scientific publications, including more than 200 in refereed journals.

Пятилетние планы развития народного хозяйства СССР или «пятилетки» — экономические планы (т. н. пятилетки), предполагавшие быстрое развитие экономики Советского Союза. Разрабатывались централизованно в общенациональном масштабе специально созданным государственным органом (Госплан СССР) под руководством КПСС. Первой пятилетке предшествовала Новая экономическая политика.

История
Первый пятилетний план (1928—1932) был разработан на основе Директив Пятнадцатого съезда ВКП(б), как продолжение и развитие идей долгосрочного плана ГОЭЛРО. Главная задача 1-й пятилетки состояла в построении фундамента социалистической экономики и укреплении обороноспособности страны. План предусматривал задания и мероприятия, направленные на превращение СССР из аграрной в развитую индустриальную державу, на коллективизацию значительного числа крестьянских хозяйств. Работа по подготовке плана проходила в острой борьбе против троцкистов, отстаивавших лозунг «сверхиндустриализации», и правой оппозиции, требовавшей равнения на «узкие места» в народном хозяйстве, низких темпов развития, особенно отраслей тяжёлой промышленности.

Первые пятилетние планы формировались с целью быстрой индустриализации Советского Союза, и, следовательно, основное внимание в них уделялось тяжёлой промышленности. Всего было 13 пятилетних планов.

Несколько пятилетних планов не занимали полностью предусмотренный для них промежуток времени (некоторые были успешно выполнены раньше срока, в то время как другие провалились и остались нереализованными). Первый был принят в 1928, на пятилетний период с 1929 по 1933 год, и был выполнен на год раньше.

В 1959 году на XXI съезде КПСС был принят семилетний план развития народного хозяйства на 1959—1965 годы. В дальнейшем вновь принимались пятилетние планы.

Последний, тринадцатый пятилетний план был рассчитан на период с 1991 по 1995 год и не был выполнен из-за распада Советского Союза в 1991 году и последовавшего за этим перехода к рыночной децентрализованной экономике.

Список пятилеток
Госплан СССР начал составлять пятилетние планы и контролировать их соблюдение с 1928 года.

New Japan Pro Wrestling: Naito, the rise of evil, and the fall of subtlety
Zach Dominello
By Zach Dominello for WrestlingObserver.com
Witnessing a subtle moment transpire before your eyes in professional wrestling can give fans an incredibly powerful and satisfying feeling. Whether it be a spot in a match that's a call back to a previous encounter, a sly nod or wink to the camera by a wrestler who knows we're thinking what they're thinking, or a line in a promo that indirectly references a moment from the past.
These small, easily missable minutiae are what keep longtime fans invested in the product. It's like a reward for years of dedication and paying attention to detail. In comics it's like discovering an easter egg: an in-joke/visual gag hidden in the book by the creator for the reader to find. They can easily go unnoticed, which makes finding one all that more rewarding.
NJPW and its cast of grapplers are good at incorporating these moments into matches and storylines, but at King of Pro Wrestling 2015, they decided to go a more straightforward route.
Dragon Gate's Punch Tominaga and Kzy had a love child, and it turned out to be EVIL. Well, no shock there really. What is a shock is that EVIL was revealed as Tetsuya Naito's "pareja" during his match with Hiroshi Tanahashi at NJPW King of Pro Wrestling 2015. Formerly Takaaki Watanabe, the Young Lion on excursion in the US, most notably performing in ROH where he was just recently gaining some steam and an inkling of a following, EVIL was the last person expected to be revealed as Naito's Ingobernable partner in crime.
As the moment of revelation drew nearer, puro detectives online were quick to eliminate potential names, such as fellow Ingobernable members Rush, La Sombra, and La Máscara. Kamaitachi was another name being thrown around but he too succumbed to the process of elimination. Ultimately, the man under the silver Guy Fawkes'esque mask turned out to be Takaaki Watanabe. If he was your pick, someone call Batman and tell him there's a new detective in town. Also ask him what the deal is with the new "bunny ears" Batman suit while you're at it.
Watanabe's name did cross my mind as I was contemplating who the mystery man could be, but I quickly dismissed him, expecting rather a bigger name like one of the aforementioned Ingobernable members. Watanabe's slow reveal was handled excellently, and added an extra layer of intrigue to the already high stakes match. As Naito made his entrance, he was followed by an identically garbed and masked man, then known only as his "pareja." The "pareja" didn't just copy Naito's look, but also his walk and mannerisms. Even the hair protruding from the back of the mask looked the same.
As the match commenced, the "pareja" stood almost completely still, eyes locked intently on the ring. He didn't even move when Tanahashi performed his High Fly Flow crossbody to Naito on the floor, forcing Tanahashi to leap over him onto Naito. When the ref took a bump, the "pareja" finally made his move, entering the ring and taking Tanahashi down with a lariat. He removed his mask to reveal his face to the crowd, who sat in silence, not recognising the former Young Lion whom they hadn't seen for quite some time.
Those who follow ROH recognised Watanabe instantly, only recently seeing him on ROH TV. After the moment of shock wore off, the announcers realised the man in the ring with the darkened eyes and long, blonde and black streaked hair was the man they used to know as Watanabe. Naito and Watanabe beat down Tanahashi until Captain New Japan, who was cornering Tanahashi, and Meiyu Tag came out to make the save (well mostly just Meiyu Tag. The Captain was as always not so effective). The match continued and with the odds evened, Tanahashi came out on top. After the match, Meiyu Tag continued to brawl with Naito and Watanabe. Goto went after Watanabe, but was foiled by a very impressive STO.
In a post match interview, Naito revealed Watanabe's new name, and here's where we say goodbye to subtlety in New Japan. Watanabe's new name is "King of Darkness (Style?)" EVIL. Yes, EVIL in all capital letters, because of course. It was also announced that Hirooki Goto would be facing EVIL at the upcoming Power Struggle event. That's right, it's Goto vs. EVIL.
That just feels so weird to say, and instantly makes me think of the hilarious film Tucker & Dale vs. Evil. Maybe in a promotion like DDT or BJW, or even Dragon Gate, where over the top characters and creative, if not absurd, matches and gimmicks are the norm, EVIL wouldn't feel so out of place. But in New Japan, where for the most part pro wrestling is still treated as a legitimate sport, a wrestler with heavy eye makeup and a strong "forces of darkness' vibe is glaringly outrageous. That probably explains why I love it so much. There's a clear sense that New Japan has grown stale with its non-evolving top stars (barring Naito whose gradual transformation from Stardust Genius to Ingobernable has been one of the high points of the year.
A stark contrast to Watanabe's sudden transformation) and lack of developing new top talent. EVIL brings something new to the table, something different to what we're used to seeing in New Japan. At this point, different is very welcome.
But is it too different, too on the nose? I can't think of a wrestler being given a name that has lacked this much subtlety. "Evil" Takaaki Watanabe? Sure! Nicknames are one thing, but to be flat out called EVIL is next level stuff. Then there's the character itself. As I mentioned, if a character like EVIL debuted in Dragon Gate, say as a member of the former Mad Blankey, current VERSERK group, I probably wouldn't bat an eye. I mean I'd probably think it was great because I have awful taste, but I wouldn't be surprised by such an overtly cartoonish character. In New Japan, cartoonish characters are not the norm, though there is Kenny "The Cleaner" whom I'll talk about shortly. I'm interested to see how traditional New Japan fans will respond to EVIL.
Kenny "The Scenery Chewer" Omega
EVIL isn't the only one giving subtlety the big boot in New Japan. Kenny "The Cleaner" Omega seems to take his character to new a new level of scenery chewing excessiveness each match he has. At King of Pro Wrestling, Omega defended his IWGP Jr. title against Matt Sydal. I loved the match, with Sydal putting on, in my eyes, one of his most solid performances to date: Spectacular moves, great selling, and a good connection with the audience. Omega's performance was also memorable, but for a different reason.
Omega's villainous character is something straight out of a manga, mixed with a bit of 80's action movie bad guy, and dash of Looney Tunes chaos, which can at times stretch the limit of the viewers suspension of disbelief. Personally, I think it's the greatest. Ridiculousness is my thing if you haven't noticed, hence my affection for DDT Pro. But is an IWGP title match the right place for such a performance? Traditionalists would likely say no. Others have mentioned that it's not so much the over the top character they don't like, it's Omega's delivery and believability. I doubt the Golden Globes are going to come calling anytime soon, but I've seen worse acting in pro wrestling. And Omega is capable of delivering a more understated performance. Omega was a key part in one of the most compelling moments of the year during the Kota Ibushi vs. A.J. Styles match at Invasion Attack 2015, and it was without saying a single word.
As Ibushi was setting up for the Phoenix Splash, Omega got on the apron and the two simply exchanged a look. A simple distraction that ended up costing Ibushi the match. Afterwards, as his Bullet Club colleagues celebrated, Omega's expressions told us everything we needed to know (Sadly, all of this led to absolutely nothing, but there's still hope). No actions, no words. That was a nuanced performance. Not sure when we'll see one of those again.
HERO HEEL REVENGE
Rounding out the night's theme is the video package that played before Naito and Tanahashi's King of Pro Wrestling match. It was a very good video package, as they usually are in New Japan. If you were coming into the match unfamiliar with the two's rivalry and G-1 history, the video painted a very clear picture. Perhaps a little too clear though, as they literally spelled out the theme of the match with giant, John Cena inspired fruity pebble coloured key words in all caps plastered on the screen: REVENGE, HERO, HEEL. Making the story of the match crystal clear to viewers is in no way a bad thing, and the big blocked words did make for a pretty neat visual
Having said that, I couldn't help but chuckle a little at the imagery. Also, the use of the word "heel" was a little jarring. I don't know if I've heard that kind of insider term used so blatantly in New Japan before.
I hope subtlety in professional wrestling is not a dying art, and that nuances and niceties are not being moved aside for large, brightly coloured key words and self-explanatory character names. Was King of Pro Wrestling simply a night of plainspoken character portrayals and storytelling, or a taste of what New Japan has in store for the future?
