“Yet the gun grabbers are still trying their level best to rescind concealed carry laws. They are still fabricating stats about how many children die by gunfire. They are still doing everything they can to disarm innocent people, thereby actually giving aid to criminals. Rest assured there was one thing this killer in Red Lake knew. He knew he would not face an armed teacher or principal while he slaughtered innocents. In addition, he had useless gun control laws and Liberals to thank for the fact his victims were helpless.” – Doug Hagin

Here are some good facts on unemployment during both the Clinton and Bush administration:
February 1997 Under Bill Cinton:
11.3 = Unemployment rate among African-Americans.
8.1 = Unemployment rate among Latinos.
4.5 = Unemployment rate among Whites.
February 2005, Under George W. Bush:
10.9 = African-Americans.
6.4 = Latinos.
4.6 = Whites.
Percentage says it all…

As you all might know, I have been really busy with my school project and work. As I mention on my previous post, I end up writing my own semi gate level Verilog parser. This is a very basic parser and do not check much syntax, but if the code is error free, it works. My lab partner is writing the PODEM part of the project and I believe I have to write the top-level code starting next week. Next week is the last week that I will be working on my school project. So, hopefully I will be back posting soon.
Here is a zipped tar file for the parser with a makefile:

Sorry, but things are very slow here at BlackPundit.com. I have a major project at school due in about a week or two. With work and this project taking the majority of my free time, it is really hard for me to read, watch the news and update my site. Sorry for the inconvenience. This project that I am doing is for a VLSI course and the topic is to determine the worst-case crosstalk using ATPG. This will be an extensive C/C++ application. The test bench will be a Verilog design. I found a C Verilog parser and got it working with C, but since I need to use C++ data structures, it is really hard compiling some of the parser code with C++. If you know a little about programming, C++ is stricter on coding than C. Therefore, there are a lot of code in the parser that will compile with C and not with C++. My next step know is to try to make the hieratical Verilog test bench into a flatten test bench and write a little mini parser myself using the Standard Template Library (STL) that is provide with C++. Well, click here for the progress report if you are interested more on what this project is about.
