All,
The events of the recent Pulse Nightclub, in Orlando, Florida, are a tragedy. Our thoughts go out to the friends and families of the victims of this unfortunate act of terrorism. I want to remind all of you about maintaining general situational awareness in public places at all times (such as being aware of your surroundings and knowing where exits are in buildings). We are mindful that events like these can affect each and every one of us in different ways, leaving us feeling vulnerable or unsettled. They can even bring back painful memories from other tragic events. If you, or any of your loved ones, are experiencing stress or anxiety over this event, we encourage you to contact the Employee Assistance Program (EAP). The EAP is completely confidential and you can access it from wherever you are, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Taking care of yourself during a stressful time is an important method for fighting the terror these type of acts are intended to provoke. At a times like this, it is important to remember to take care of yourself and each other.
Remember EAP is a free service provided to all employees to help them cope with many different types of stress and conflict. Please consider these services as the impact of this event continues to unfold.

Today's Highlight in History:
On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress, meeting in Philadelphia, adopted the original design of the Stars and Stripes, specifying a flag containing thirteen red and white stripes and thirteen stars.
On this date:
In 1775, the Continental Army, forerunner of the United States Army, was created.
In 1801, former American Revolutionary War general and notorious turncoat Benedict Arnold died in London.
In 1922, Warren G. Harding became the first president heard on radio, as Baltimore station WEAR broadcast his speech dedicating the Francis Scott Key memorial at Fort McHenry.
In 1934, Max Baer defeated Primo Carnera with an 11th round TKO to win the world heavyweight boxing championship in Long Island City, New York.
In 1940, German troops entered Paris during World War II; the same day, the Nazis began transporting prisoners to the Auschwitz (OWSH'-vitz) concentration camp in German-occupied Poland.
In 1943, the U.S. Supreme Court, in West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette, ruled 6-3 that children in public schools could not be forced to salute the flag of the United States.
In 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a measure adding the phrase "under God" to the Pledge of Allegiance.
In 1967, the space probe Mariner 5 was launched from Cape Kennedy on a flight that took it past Venus.
In 1972, the Environmental Protection Agency ordered a ban on domestic use of the pesticide DDT, to take effect at year's end.
In 1982, Argentine forces surrendered to British troops on the disputed Falkland Islands.
In 1985, the 17-day hijack ordeal of TWA Flight 847 began as a pair of Lebanese Shiite (SHEE'-eyet) Muslim extremists seized the jetliner shortly after takeoff from Athens, Greece.
In 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld, 6-3, police checkpoints that examined drivers for signs of intoxication.
Ten years ago: President George W. Bush, just back from a surprise visit to Iraq, dismissed calls for a U.S. withdrawal as election-year politics and refused to give a timetable or benchmark for success that would allow troops to come home.
Five years ago: President Barack Obama made a four-hour visit to Puerto Rico, becoming the first president since John F. Kennedy to make an official visit to the U.S. territory. The long-delayed, problem-plagued musical "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark" officially opened on Broadway.
One year ago: Thousands of Syrians cut through a border fence and crossed over into Turkey, fleeing intense fighting in northern Syria between Kurdish fighters and jihadis. Inbee Park shot a final round 68 and finished at 19-under par to win the KPMG Women's PGA Championship for the third consecutive year and retake the No. 1 ranking in women's golf.

ALF actor Mihaly “Michu” Meszaros died Monday at the age of 76, EW has confirmed. The news comes one week after Meszaros was reportedly found unconscious in his home and hospitalized in Los Angeles, where he slipped into a coma for several days.
At 2-foot-9, Meszaros was unofficially known as the smallest man on Earth. Peforming with the circus since the age of 14, the Hungarian-born actor first rose to prominence in Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus during the ’70s. He toured throughout the U.S. and Canada putting on shows for the likes of Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. He even befriended his idol, Michael Jackson, along the way.

The intruders so thoroughly compromised the DNC’s system they also were able to read all e-mail and chat traffic, said DNC officials and the security experts.
The intrusion into the DNC was one of several targeting American political organizations. The networks of presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were also targeted by Russian spies, as were the computers of some GOP political action committees, U.S. officials said. But details on those cases were not available.
A Russian Embassy spokesman said he had no knowledge of such intrusions.
Some of the hackers had access to the DNC network for about a year, but all were expelled over the past weekend in a major computer clean-up campaign, the committee officials and experts said

Peforming with the circus since the age of 14, the Hungarian-born actor first rose to prominence in Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus during the ’70s. He toured throughout the U.S. and Canada putting on shows for the likes of Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. He even befriended his idol, Michael Jackson, along the way.

Russian government hackers penetrated the computer network of the Democratic National Committee and gained access to the entire database of opposition research on GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, according to committee officials and security experts who responded to the breach.Why hack the DNC...there is nothing of value for anyone there...
The intruders so thoroughly compromised the DNC’s system they also were able to read all e-mail and chat traffic, said DNC officials and the security experts.
The intrusion into the DNC was one of several targeting American political organizations. The networks of presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were also targeted by Russian spies, as were the computers of some GOP political action committees, U.S. officials said. But details on those cases were not available.
A Russian Embassy spokesman said he had no knowledge of such intrusions.
Some of the hackers had access to the DNC network for about a year, but all were expelled over the past weekend in a major computer clean-up campaign, the committee officials and experts said

Gabrielle's (my daughter's) graduation party update. So she parks in the American Legion parking lot, and walks up to her friends house(restricted neighborhood parking, due to proximity to train station). First they say she is 10 minutes early, then, oops, didn't you get the update, we rescheduled the pool party for next Monday, when it will be warmer(2nd reschedule of the party). So she calls me to let me know, she can pick me up from the train.Give her the credit card and tell her to go shopping until 8 then pick you up at the Legion.

An "assualt" weapon is not used for hunting. I have seen it classified as a gun for civil unrest. when was the last time we had civil unrest, I know, I am opening a can of worms, I think you should be allowed long rifles, shotguns, handguns, but an AR-15 to hunt, is like fishing with a stick of dynamite. if the deer were armed, it would be another story.The dumbazz in chief is speaking and the problem seems to be that he is fighting ISIL and ISIS is the one killing people. ::)Here we go, the only solution is to increase gun control on American's.

The AR-15 (and by the way, Moteen didnt use an AR-15 but we won't quibble about cosmetics) is just a rifle, like any other. It is no faster than any other semi-automatic rifle. Yes, it accepts box magazines, and yes, you can get high - capacity mags for it, but if magazines are restricted in capacity, an assailant like Moteen will just carry more magazines. That's why "assault weapon bans" (and the AR-15 is not an assault weapon, but again, we won't quibble) don't work - no legal language can be found that differentiates an AR-15 from any other rifle other than cosmetics, and cosmetics don't make a weapon more lethal.An "assualt" weapon is not used for hunting.

And I will repeat - the rate of fire of an AR-15 is no higher than any other semi-automatic rifle with a box magazine, which includes a dozen or so hunting rifles I can name off the top of my head.

LOL, the .50 BMG only holds 10 rounds and takes a while to cycle each round so maybe it is a "hunting rifle" or does the +/-30 pound weight qualify it as one maybe? No "A" in the name so must not be an "assault" rifle. ::)

The shotgun I bought my son is a Remington 870 that holds 4 shells. It has a pistol grip and flash suppressor which accounts for two of three criteria for making it an "assault weapon" If he is not careful in selecting a different gun stock or light holder for the barrel, he's illegal.

The irrational kind. Mine holds 8+1 so it must be one, good so if anyone comes strutting in my back door one night I will let them know that it is.The shotgun I bought my son is a Remington 870 that holds 4 shells. It has a pistol grip and flash suppressor which accounts for two of three criteria for making it an "assault weapon" If he is not careful in selecting a different gun stock or light holder for the barrel, he's illegal.

“Assault rifle” was first used to describe a military weapon, the Sturmgewehr, produced by the Germans in World War II. The Sturmgewehr — literally “storm rifle,” a name chosen by Adolf Hitler — was capable of both semiautomatic and full-automatic fire. It was the progenitor for many modern military rifles.
But the term “assault rifle” was expanded and broadened when gun manufacturers began to sell firearms modeled after the new military rifles to civilians. In 1984, Guns & Ammo advertised a book called “Assault Firearms,” which it said was “full of the hottest hardware available today.”
“The popularly held idea that the term ‘assault weapon’ originated with antigun activists, media or politicians is wrong,” Mr. Peterson wrote. “The term was first adopted by the manufacturers, wholesalers, importers and dealers in the American firearms industry to stimulate sales of certain firearms that did not have an appearance that was familiar to many firearm owners. The manufacturers and gun writers of the day needed a catchy name to identify this new type of gun.”

Timing couldn't be any better. One of the guys I "work" with is being asked to present something tomorrow. Unfortunately for him, he has no idea about the subject matter and I'm the expert in that technology. He was pleading with me to go to the vendor's office tomorrow to present and I told him that I was too hurt and needed time to process what happened today. Gotta love instant karma.

Excellent response!I'm drinking black ice coffee and that works just fine.Good idea, they sell beer in the park?I'm doing just that. May even have a 2nd one before heading home. Gorgeous day here.Great idea Tony, enjoy!Decided to leave early and head over to Paley Park for a La Palina maduro. Great stick.Chit, indeed. Sorry to hear it, Mr. Mayor.Well ain't that some CHIT! Make the best of it and smoke a damn good one.I had homework to do last night but I didn't feel like doing it. Wonder if my boss will believe that the dog ate it?Glad I didn't do that work from home last night. Although I did finish it up this morning. Just got my notification. Now I need to figure out what cigar I'll be smoking when I leave work today right after lunch.

Timing couldn't be any better. One of the guys I "work" with is being asked to present something tomorrow. Unfortunately for him, he has no idea about the subject matter and I'm the expert in that technology. He was pleading with me to go to the vendor's office tomorrow to present and I told him that I was too hurt and needed time to process what happened today. Gotta love instant karma.

TWSS....many times all you have to do is pump it.The irrational kind. Mine holds 8+1 so it must be one, good so if anyone comes strutting in my back door one night I will let them know that it is.The shotgun I bought my son is a Remington 870 that holds 4 shells. It has a pistol grip and flash suppressor which accounts for two of three criteria for making it an "assault weapon" If he is not careful in selecting a different gun stock or light holder for the barrel, he's illegal. What kind of criteria are those?it's not a hunting rifle, it is a high rate of fire weapon, with a large magazine. You don't have to reload a hammer.An AR-15 is just another semi-automatic rifle. I too am sick of this "assault" weapon BS. I can assault you with a hammer.An "assualt" weapon is not used for hunting. I have seen it classified as a gun for civil unrest. when was the last time we had civil unrest, I know, I am opening a can of worms, I think you should be allowed long rifles, shotguns, handguns, but an AR-15 to hunt, is like fishing with a stick of dynamite. if the deer were armed, it would be another story.The dumbazz in chief is speaking and the problem seems to be that he is fighting ISIL and ISIS is the one killing people. ::)Here we go, the only solution is to increase gun control on American's. Got to have an "assault" weapons ban........ same old bullshit. And now the weapons are going to get more powerful......
And now he is blaming it on the Senate for not confirming one of his nominees.
what I wonder, is why didn't a bartender or a group of people attack this clown with a bottle of 151 proof rum and a lighter. 3 guys on a french train stopped someone through their action. We need more "let's roll" type people.

Hey, even FOX can report something accurately once in a while.Some interesting stuff for both sides of the argument. As most would agree with, gun sellers are as guilty as the extreme liberals in confusing the use of "assault rifle"You had me going until you cited the source. Might as well have been USA Today.
“Assault rifle” was first used to describe a military weapon, the Sturmgewehr, produced by the Germans in World War II. The Sturmgewehr — literally “storm rifle,” a name chosen by Adolf Hitler — was capable of both semiautomatic and full-automatic fire. It was the progenitor for many modern military rifles.
But the term “assault rifle” was expanded and broadened when gun manufacturers began to sell firearms modeled after the new military rifles to civilians. In 1984, Guns & Ammo advertised a book called “Assault Firearms,” which it said was “full of the hottest hardware available today.”
“The popularly held idea that the term ‘assault weapon’ originated with antigun activists, media or politicians is wrong,” Mr. Peterson wrote. “The term was first adopted by the manufacturers, wholesalers, importers and dealers in the American firearms industry to stimulate sales of certain firearms that did not have an appearance that was familiar to many firearm owners. The manufacturers and gun writers of the day needed a catchy name to identify this new type of gun.”

Texas lawmakers likely to expand where people can take guns
10:06 am
Texas lawmakers have responded to mass shootings by expanding gun rights over the last few years. Look for them to continue the trend.

A lone-wolf terrorist by definition wouldn't have any accomplices. If he did, then it wouldn't be a lone-wolf attack, it would be a conspiracy.Hey, she's on a role, promise away. Lone-wolf deterrents is no more far fetched than any of the other shit they are promising to do.
But hey, Hillary has trouble understanding what "classified" means, so...

good afternoon guys. just arrived at my daughter's place. I-95 was a parking lot at 6am. I was stuck in traffic for 3 fucking hours this morning. if I ever see that stretch of road again it'll be too soon.Wouldn't 81 have been better? You are in western NY, right? 75 to 81 seems to be a better route as long as you can avoid peak Atlanta. With 95 you have to deal with Richmond, DC, Baltimore, Philly and NYC....one or more are sure to get you.

The fault is in us, for believing that a cosmos in which natural selection reigns supreme can be somehow regulated by legislation. Politicians tell us what they think we want to hear, and we believe it because we want to believe it's true, or because we're afraid it might be true.Hillary has a solution!

Was a pretty serious attempt. He swallowed all his meds on top of copious amounts of tequila. When that didn't work he sent a nastygram to my dad and then cut his wrists. He cut them the wrong way, but my sister arrived and called in the EMT's who took him to the emergency room to be stitched up. That's all I know so far. Not a good day.Goddammitall.
