https://www.washingto...tional-security This article from the WP seems to have the most credible explanation so far. According to this account, the woman (Broadwell) threatened another woman by e-mail. The other woman reported it to the FBI as a threat, and upon identifying Gen. Petraeus's involvement they investigated to ensure it wasn't a hacking-in of his e-mail, compromise of classified material or other criminal action given his role as CIA director. They apparently discovered no evidence of a crime by anyone, but came across evidence of the affair - which made it's way to the DNI. Apparently it fell apart after that, with the General choosing to resign (on advice from the DNI). Unfortunately, the article alludes to the possibliity of another woman participant. I don't buy a conspiracy re: Benghazi or any other skull-duggery. It seems to me like an incredibly accomplished and admired military leader fell victim to a very human weakness with an attractive and (probably) aggressive younger woman.

(I'm a general surgeon & i do this surgery) - what WKings06j said. At the end of the day you'll be fine. If it's acutely infected at the time of surgery it might have to be left open to heal up with dressing changes - might extend healing time to 8 weeks or so. If it's relatively clean at time of surgery they'll be able to sew it up and you'll heal faster (3 - 4 weeks) either way when it's over you'll heal up just fine, re; Wipe Down...best advice ever.

I understand that flying a military aircraft is different from a civilian aircraft, but airmanship is the common thread & there have to be some operational improvements we can develop and share (at least in non-tactical envirinments for mil).

You can probably find a green bitch or two here on earth if you know where to look...

The commercial ASEL add-on is pretty simple. I knew several AF guys who got it at LIT a few years ago so they could rent (they were C-130 guys who did T-37, T-44 or T-1 and C-130 so their mil equivalency civ rating was Comm Inst limited to AMEL only). Dunno about adding an ASEL to a CFI but I'm guessing about the same except from the right seat... Theoretically I guess the main difference is the engine failure procedure is a little different for a multi vs. a single engine.

Get a good lawyer - they're worth it. But it's usually better if you can get your lawyers to come to a reasonable agreement rather than fight it out. It helps to make your expectations & wants completely clear to your lawyer - such as tell him/her what's worth fighting over to you and what's not. If there are any lawyers you don't want her to use - get to them & interview then first - once you've visited with them, they can't represent her even if you don't use them. Get your own PO Box ASAP Stash away some emergency money - preferably in your own bank account. If possible, transfer your pay there. Understand if a divorce is filed, there will usually be a TRO that prohibits spending any money except for usual expenses. Cancel any joint credit cards ASAP. Get a copy of your credit report so you know what accounts are in your name. Perhaps enroll in one of the services that notify you if there's a change in your credit report. Don't allow yourself to get in any position that could even remotely suggested to be associated with domestic violence. Be good to your kids & yourself In most states, there's a set formula how most of it is going to work out. For example in AR, marital assets are divided in half. There is a state-approved formula for child support and alimony is rare. It's unusual to get any other settlement so it may not be worth fighting over it that much If you can agree on child custody & visitation issues it's so much easier. Sorry to hear - all the best.

The tat should be OK but I don't think FedEx will let you have a beard...

Heard today from a young surgeon I trained who's over there now. Great surgeon, she's from an Army family & is ready to take on anything they throw her way - makes me feel good about training her. If any of our guys end up needing her they'll be in good hands - it just pisses me off because I see absolutely no reason (at this point) we should have anything more to do with that place or those people - we've achieved our national objectives & they obviously don't want our help in achieving theirs. In May, 2011 it was reported that there were at least 26 murder/attempted murder incidents against ISAF personnel by ANSF or ASG members, resulting in deaths of 58 westerners. Of course there have been more since. This source https://www.michaelyo...mpatibility.pdf outlines it pretty well. Why do we tolerate this? I just don't see how either DOD or State can "nation build" when the the Afghans can't or won't at least try to play on the same team as us? How many more of our people need to be killed by the very people we're supposed to be trying to help before we decide that this is a bad idea? So far it's 58+ & growing.

Something he said over in the other thread about if BO got all the troops home from the 'stan by November.

Also found it by searching "baseops" - signed in with no trouble. There's a new Tapatalk HD for iPad in the app store. Looks nicer than using the original iPhone designed Tapatalk on an iPad at 2X.

Good point. With alot of the details coming out about this, I think you're going to see a huge push from the U.S. citizenry to get the hell out of there. Joe/Jane U.S. citizen may not understand all of the nuances of that part of the world, but they will understand - and I believe will have alot of trouble tolerating - that two U.S. military officers over there to help the Afghani's stand up their own military were murdered execution-style in a "secure" area by an Afghan military officer. That's not too hard to understand. Given what I think will be a big public uproar over this, the length of this war and the upcoming election, I'd bet the White House will looking for a rapid way out. I hope so.

It seems like the major national interest of the US was to take down the Taliban government after 9-11. As I recall that was done in a year or two. I suppose it was the honorable thing to do to give the good college try to support the "new" Afghan government, but enough is enough. I don't want another damn cent of my tax money to go to support either Karzai or that shithole of a "country". How 'bout we just get our people the hell out of there right now.

It seems to work here: https://tlc.howstuffw...tv/sister-wives I guess you could be "brother husband dudes"

If the property manager had the owner's authorization to rent on the owner's behalf (like a power of attorney) the owner is stuck with the contract the property manager enters her in to.

Just a guess - the owner has had bad experiences with roommates and probably doesn't want to rent to roommates any more. The agreement between the owner and the property manager may have a "no roommates" instruction - or maybe the owner told the property manager "no roommates" separately - but for you, it doesn't matter. If the owner legally authorized the property manager to rent it on her behalf (even with restrictions) and the property manager screwed that up, it sucks to be him. Assuming the property owner is authorized to rent the place, the paperwork is good and you are not in violation of any terms of your agreement with the property manager, its not your problem. If it has to go to litigation, all that stuff will get dug out at an excruciatingly slow pace by $200.00/hr lawyers. But if there's no controversy that hasn't been mentioned here, no one will want to let it go that far. My guess is that if you have a valid lease, no reason to be in violation of terms of your lease and SCRA, they'll fold like a cheap suit if they put up a fight at all. It is very much in your best interest to be an absolute model tenant until this is done with. Please keep us updated.

As much as I hate to encourage lawyers, lawyer up. Don't do shit, if the property manager pushes ask him to just let you know in writing that he wants you to move and then lawyer up. If the owner has given power of attorney to the property manager, then it's likely that you have a valid lease that can't be broken except under the terms of the lease. In that case the owner's recourse is to sue the property manager for breach of their contract. If it turns out the property owner's agreement with the owner isn't any good he's got bigger problems. Either way (and assuming there isn't something else besides whats in the post) sucks to be him. Don't do anything stupid, cute or anything that could come even close to you violating your obligations under the lease until this plays out.

Wonder if they successfully ejected only to later be beheaded for the crash?

this by his own choices, he made himself an enemy combatant, and therefore a legitimate military target. Had he chosen to avail himself of his rights as a U.S. Citizen, all he needed to do was turn himself in to the U.S. Embassy of his choice. Well Done to the team... to the targets, AMF & have a blast in hell...

(Disclaimer - I am not a Flight Surgeon. I am a pilot and a practicing general surgeon, I also work in hospital administration of a large university hospital - I work with medical records every day) If you know what hospital your surgery was done at, your best bet is probably to try to get a copy of your medical record from that hospital (if the record and the hospital still exist). The record will have the operative report, maybe a discharge summary and whatever other information is there. It will also show who your doctor was. You are entitled to receive a copy of the entire record (if it still exists) although they will ask you to sign a release and they may charge you for the copies. The department at the hospital to contact is the medical records department (sometimes called health information management or HIM). They are used to getting copies of old records for patients so they will know the drill - they may even have a specific release of information desk. It's pretty streamlined and except for having to sign a release and shell out a little $, it's painless. There is a certain time frame after which hospitals may destroy old records and they may not still have records from 27 years ago - but the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in most states doesn't start until age 18 or 21 for pediatric care. For this reason hospitals keep medical records of pediatric care for a really long time so you may be in luck. If they've purged the record, you can report the surgery with the name of the hospital and that records have been purged. Either way, I think you'll be fine. Infant hernia repairs are very common and if you've had no problems (and don't have a recurrent hernia) it won't be an issue.

Wow. Just ######ing wow.

Bud Light Lime - 8/10 under normal circumstances, 10/10 when I'm hot & thirsty and it's ice cold. I realize it's kind of a weak, everyday commoner beer, but I really like how it tastes and it is very smooth. (I am talking about the actual "Bud Light Lime", not a regular Bud Light with a slice of lime stuffed it it. Bud Light Lime just tastes better) Honorable mentions: Red Stripe Jamaican Lager Fat Tire
