The Murfreesboro Police Department, TN will host a Criminal Investigative Analysis Course from September 22nd to September 26th 2008. The course will be presented by Wayne Porter of the Alpha Group Center for Crime and Intelligence Analysis Training, and may be used for Certification purposes in the Certificate in Crime and Intelligence Analysis Program offered by the California Department of Justice and the California State University system.
Mr. Porter is an FBI-certified Police fellow profiler who for 11 years profiled serial rape and homicide cases as a Special Agent with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, several of which have been featured on television's A&E's Investigative Reports and Court TV. Currently maintaining his sworn status as a Reserve Special Agent with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, Mr. Porter, who retired with 32 years in Law Enforcement, now consults and instructs on violent Crime topics along with practical applications of Criminal investigative analysis techniques for Law Enforcement organizations throughout North America.
Designed for both investigators and Crime analysts who are responsible for investigating or assisting in the investigation of rape, homicide, and violent Crime cases, this course takes a very practical "learn-by-doing" approach to training that, through lectures and demonstration, provides students with numerous opportunities to walk through the analytical process in the analysis of serial rape and homicide. Participants learn how to analyze Crime scene patterns, recognize the all-important signatures of serial violent crime such as homicide and rape, identify the behavioral, physical, and personality characteristics of offenders who commit these crimes. They'll also be shown how to determine the offender's obsessions and motivations, how to determine if, when, and where offenders may strike again. In addition the course will address the target selection process of offenders, sexual deviants behaviors exhibited by the offender, how female serial killers differ from male serial killers, and how social and environmental factors shape an offender's life.
Each participant will receive a copy of "The Criminal Investigative Analysis Study Guide and Workbook," a manual of over 700 pages of class notes and supplemental reading material, and a CD of "Managing Death Investigations," by Arthur Westveer, Jr., containing over 600 pages of material for the investigation of many types of violent deaths. This is an unique opportunity to become more aware of the investigative analysis process currently preformed by the Police-fellow and F.B.I. profilers. The student will learn the importance of walking in the shoes of both the suspect and the victim.
Tuition for the course is $525 and includes the week of instruction and all related course materials. The course also fulfills the requirements of the Certified Crime and Intelligence Analysts Program and may be used for certification purposes.

The first three pictures are of the Forrest Mushrooms my mom bought for us (I paid her back:P). They are smaller then the other type of shrooms we normally eat from the wild and aren't as buttery tasting but still GOOOOOOOOD!
The first picture is of them soaking all day in salt water. Salt water kills all the lil bugs and such off of them. The second picture is of them nice and cleaned off (part of them anyway) and ready to be dipped in batter!
The third picture is of them deep fried and yummy tasting.
I used crackers for this go around of breading. The kids perfer that over flour. But I perfer the flour breading mixed with a lil corn meal myself!:D
The next round of pictures if of the tree that came down in that big thunder storm that rolled through our area of NE in the middle of May. We had no clue that it came down! And our bedroom window is on that side of the house! The top window showing is Colt's window. Our window on that side of the house isn't showing. Colt didn't even hear the tree coming down. And it had to hit hard! Randy had to hook the big truck up with his chains to pull out some of the bigger branches from my yard, they were embedded into the ground! The lil dog kept waking us up that night and we kept getting after the poor thing for barking! She was just trying to warn us the tree was falling was all!
To Kill an American
You probably missed this in the rush of news, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper, an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.
An Australian dentist wrote the following to let everyone know what an American is; so potential killers of such would know one when they found one. Good on ya, mate!
"An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, or Arab, or Pakistani or Afghan. An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as native Americans.
An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in America [I think the writer means in AUSPOTA] than in Afghanistan. The only difference is that in America [AUSPOTA] they are free to worship as each of them chooses. An American [United Stateese if you will. American is not a nation. The United States part of The Americas is a nation] is also free to believe in no religion. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.
An American [citizen of AUSPOTA or resident thereof] lives in the most prosperous land in the history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes the God given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness.
An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return. When Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country! As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan. Americans welcome the best of everything...the best products, the best books, the best music, the best food, the best services. But they also welcome the least. The national symbol of America, The Statue of Liberty, welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless, tempest tossed. These in fact are the people who built America. Some of them were working in the Twin Towers the morning of September 11, 2001 earning a better life for their families. It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least 30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those that aided and abetted the terrorists. So you can try to kill an American [a United Statesese] if you must. Hitler did. So did General Tojo, and Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung and other blood-thirsty tyrants in the world [like George W. Bush and the other blood-thirsty and insane fudkers in his illicite regime].
But, in doing so you would just be killing yourself. Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American.
Sincerely in pursuit of happiness and freedom from tyranny of whatever political stripe,
Mr. David Tecumseh Schmidt, MSW, University of Michigan, 1982

So sick of PVA glue.
So sick of staining my hands pink with drawing ink.
So sick of fabric paint all over my arms.
So sick of crepe paper getting all mushy under the glue.
So sick of cutting fabrics, glueing them down in random patterns and calling it art.
I FUCKING HATE TEXTILES!!!!!!!
Today we had a 3 hour exam preperation, where we did nothing for 3 hours but sit, paint in our sketchbooks and annotate random shite about and around random shite.
Tomorrow I have another 3 hours of Textiles, only we're starting the real exam.
And that's 3 hours of TEN.
...Argh, you know.
I'm a decent drawer, I'm a decent artist - I just CAN'T BE ARSED WITH TEXTILES.
It's one of my courses I may even come close to failing.
And I won't give a shit, to be frank.
Fuck Art & Design Textiles.
All of the articles in the magazine were discouraging in that each addressed an attempt to control Americans' religious beliefs. One article, however, was particularly difficult to set aside or dismiss as "existential what if," the one about Texas minister Rick Scarborough who wants to form powerful religious groups with enough clout override the concept of separation of church and state, enough clout to impeach judges and those in the House and Senate who violate his concept of religious freedom: "Believe as I do."
Sounds really far out, I thought, until I read that Tom Delay (a Bush favorite always in attendance until he broke one too many laws) is one of his principal supporters. Only the funeral of Pope John Paul II prevented Delay's personal appearance at one of his gatherings but "the bulk of his remarks (delivered via a videotape) poured gasoline on the fire." With two Supreme Court Justices about to retire, it is entirely possible that Bush will manage to get on the bench Justices who think like Scalia, Rehnquist, and Thomas, etc., and a majority of extreme right wing justices could and likely would decide that the Establishment Clause does not apply to the states. Ah, each state could decide what a church could do within its borders.
This is where Scarborough enters. The states could decide that daily prayers and bible study were to be a part of each school day, that in order to serve as a public official, one would have to take a religious oath, that the Sabbath was to be strictly enforced as a day of worship, that adultery and homosexuality were capital offenses, that posting on blogs that questioned the state government is a capital offense, etc. In other words, the states, even those with enlightened leadership, could be bullied by powerful manic religious groups like Scarboroughs, could become dangerous places for those of us who do not fit the molds designed by those who oversee the state's religious office.
Scarborough is dangerously demented and like many demented men, he is persistent. He reserves a special hell for gays, which is why I am writing this note here. Gays need to follow this man's movements. Yes, with the Bush faction behind him, Scarborough bears watching. Life in the U.S. is becoming more and more like a chess game - where we have to watch all avenues where we are open to attack and make smart tactical moves if we are to survive.
My friend, Kevin Bonner, before he died of AIDS in 1982, introduced me to many of his gay friends in Pensacola and Atlanda, and this is when I first recognized the clout this group possesses. My secondary purpose in writing this note, recognized only after I actually started writing it, is to enlist your support for Ron Paul, candidate for President. I just want to say there is only one candidate who in my opinion can be trusted to safeguard ALL Americans, forget making a choice based on what political party a candidate belongs to! "Bush Dogs" (Democrats whose votes consistently supported Bush) killed any loyalty owed to the Democrats and turned the Democratic Party's choices into a real crap shoot; and, we all the Republicans sold their souls in supporting Bush on every single issue that violated our Constitutional protections!
Our only protection is the Constitution and Bush and his Republican backers are dismantling it as expeditiously as is humanly possible. While I have been a Democrat all my life, after spending a hundred or so hours investigating who is behind this and that candidate for president, I am convinced that Ron Paul, technically a Republican but in reality a Libertarian, is the ONLY sane, wise choice for President. Obama was my default candidate until I learned that Brezinski (a dangerous globalist you should check out for yourselves) is running his campaign. I urge all of you, while you are checking out Scarborough and Brezinski on the web, to check out Ron Paul. You can feel confidence in his qualifications because both parties have ensured that he receive no media coverage. He is a threat to the Dark Forces - and this is not hyperbole - so they are both trying to pretend he does not exist. Downsizer Dispatch is a group that has enjoyed enormous success in monitoring Congress and Ron Paul is hands down their choice, the only choice for those who do not vote on reflex. This groups endorsement and support says it all. Join me at my blog, www://youshouldknow@blogstream.com, and leave me a note to say hi and give me your ideas of all this. Take care! Love, Tome
