While immigration and the Latino vote may not have been decisive in the 2014 midterm elections, the Republican takeover of the Senate come January 2015 and increased majority in the House have significant implications for the outcome of the immigration debate. This article examines the changing dynamics and the president's intent to proceed with executive action to shield some of the unauthorized immigrant population from deportation.
Pacific Islanders with criminal convictions have found themselves deported from Australia, New Zealand, or the United States, which have shifted their immigration enforcement priorities in recent years. This article explores the significant barriers to reintegration that criminal deportees in Pacific Island countries face upon their return, including difficulty accessing community networks and jobs.
From 1980 to 2013, the sub-Saharan African immigrant population in the United States increased from 130,000 to 1.5 million, roughly doubling each decade between 1980 and 2010.

The outbreak of Ebola in West Africa, with three cases diagnosed in the United States, has generated tremendous public fear and anxiety in the United States and other countries. The Obama administration has restricted air travel from West Africa to five airports with enhanced screening, amid calls for a complete travel ban. The Policy Beat examines the use of U.S. immigration controls to halt the spread of disease.
Recent surges in the arrival of unauthorized migrants with possible humanitarian claims have prompted the United States and the European Union to consider in-country and offshore processing for some refugee and asylum applications. As this article explores, some of the questions raised about the feasibility of such programs include their consistency with humanitarian law and their effectiveness in reducing unwanted entries.

With the state of Alabama's recent legal settlement ensuring that key portions of its highly contested immigration enforcement law will never take effect, an important chapter of heightened activism by states in immigration enforcement has drawn to a near close. This article explores Alabama's decision, which traces its roots to the Supreme Court's 2012 ruling in Arizona v. United States, as well as the Infosys civil settlement with federal prosecutors over its use of foreign workers, new refugee admission numbers, extension of Temporary Protected Status for Somalis, and more.

In 2001, filmmakers Shari Robertson and Michael Camerini embarked on a journey that took them across the country and into the offices of the U.S. Capitol, local town halls, high-level negotiations, election races, and activist rallies, all to tell one large and complex story: how the U.S. policy process — particularly in immigration reform — really works. Joyce Matthews, editor of the Migration Information Source, recently caught up with Michael and Shari for a candid conversation about their ambitious project and what they took away from their six years filming the U.S. immigration debate. Foreword by Demetrios G. Papademetriou, President of the Migration Policy Institute.
Rarely is migration among the Chinese from Hong Kong, the People's Republic of China, and Taiwan to the countries of the Pacific Rim as cut and dry as the labels "immigrant," "emigrant," and "returnee" suggest. In fact, Chinese migrants from each of these areas of origin share a tendency for traversing between their homeland; country of work, study, or residence; and even a third country as the needs of the family dictate. This article examines these contemporary migration patterns using Chinese migrants in New Zealand as a case study.
The past decade has brought tens of thousands of Chinese migrants to Africa, and well over half of all Chinese migrants to the continent head to South Africa. Yoon Jung Park of Rhodes University discusses the history of Chinese migration to South Africa, the various communities of Chinese currently residing in the country, and their levels of political, social, and economic integration.
Most of China's roughly 145 million rural-to-urban migrants were born after 1980, making this population the "new generation" of internal migrant workers. Having been directly influenced by China's rapid economic growth and recent sociodemographic policy changes, this cohort of rural-urban migrants offers much to learn with respect to their motivations. This article discusses survey data indicating that new-generation migrants have somewhat different motivations and expectations than their more traditional counterparts, such as the desire for excitement, fun, and career development independent of the needs of the family back home.
Diaspora entrepreneurs have several advantages over other entrepreneurs or investors because they have social, political, and economic connections in two or more countries. Kathleen Newland and Hiroyuki Tanaka discuss the conditions and commitments on the part of countries of origin that can help attract and support diaspora entrepreneurs.
The 2.9 million Central American immigrants living in the United States were more likely than both the native born and the foreign-born population overall to be of working age and to be participating in the U.S. labor force. MPI's Aaron Terrazas examines the population's size, geographic distribution, and demographic characteristics.
Interested in information on annual naturalization trends, illegal immigration, the geographical distribution of immigrants in the United States, current and historical shares, and a host of other topics?
MPI's Jeanne Batalova and Aaron Terrazas have assembled the latest, most interesting data on immigrants and immigration into one easy-to-use resource.
While the number of people detained reached a five-year high of over 383,000, apprehensions hit a 34-year low of 613,000 in 2009. MPI's Jeanne Batalova and Kristen McCabe examine the latest immigration enforcement data in this updated Spotlight.
Few visas in the U.S. alphabet soup of visa types have become as well-known — or controversial — as the H-1B has in its 20-year history. MPI's Jeanne Batalova examines the program's background and the numbers and characteristics of those granted H-1B visas in 2009.
Compared to the foreign born overall, the 1.1 million Vietnamese immigrants in the United States were less likely to hold a bachelor's degree but had much higher naturalization and homeownership rates. MPI's Aaron Terrazas and Cristina Batog look at the population's size, geographic distribution, and socioeconomic characteristics.
One of the poorest countries in Central Asia and a former Soviet Republic, Tajikistan has dealt with Afghan refugees, experienced outward flows of ethnic Russians since its independence, and seen thousands of ethnic Tajiks leave for temporary employment in Russia. MPI's Aaron Erlich investigates the migration issues facing this understudied country.
Although Sweden was once open to labor migrants from across Europe and refugees from all over the world, its policies have become increasingly restrictive over the last 35 years. Today, the country is wrestling with integration issues, as Charles Westin of the Centre for Research in International Migration and Ethnic Relations, Stockholm University, explains.
One of the poorest countries in the world, Burkina Faso is a former French colony in Western Africa that has traditionally sent thousands of seasonal migrants to Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. Brad Kress of the UK's Centre for Research into Economic and Social Trends examines the migration issues facing the country today.
Guatemala's long civil war, which spurred large flows of refugees, has given way to high levels of economic migration to the United States and an economy more dependent on remittances. Also, Guatemala's geography has made it a prime transit country for migrants headed north, as James Smith of Inforpress Centroamericana reports.
Perhaps best known for its brain drain and the related success of its diaspora, Ghana also has an important role in West African migration patterns, past and present. Micah Bump of Georgetown's Institute for the Study of International Migration takes a detailed look at a country in transition.

Thibodeau backs Taj Gibson for Sixth Man Award
By Mark Potash Staff Reporter January 20, 2014 10:15PM
Los Angeles Lakers v Chicago Bulls
Related Stories
Updated: January 20, 2014 11:25PM
Lakers swingman Nick Young, who was averaging 16.7 points off the bench, is a leading contender for the Sixth Man Award and didn't hurt his credentials with 17 points in the first half Monday against the Bulls. But reserve big man Taj Gibson, Young's former teammate at USC, deserves consideration, coach Tom Thibodeau said.
Gibson was averaging 11.7 points and 6.5 rebounds — numbers that only begin to explain his value to the Bulls.
''Taj, to me, is a starter,'' Thibodeau said. ''He's had a fantastic year. He can score, he defends, can play multiple positions. Whatever you ask him to do, he does.''
Gibson's versatility is immeasurable to Thibodeau because he's just as effective as a starter or as a substitute.
''Not many guys can do both as well as he can,'' Thibodeau said. ''It doesn't take him five minutes to warm up. As soon as you put him in the game, that motor's running and he's flying around.''
King and court
The Bulls paid tribute to Martin Luther King, with swingman Jimmy Butler addressing the crowd before the game, which was part of the NBA's observance of Martin Luther King Day.
''He was one of the great leaders of all time,'' Thibodeau said. ''When he talked about equality, he talked about equality for all people. You can't say enough about the things he did. And, obviously, it's withstood the test of time. All the stuff he did was amazing. He's a remarkable man.''
Cartier a keeper?
Thibodeau indicated that he would like forward Cartier Martin, recently signed to a second 10-day contract, to be signed for the rest of the season.
''We're hopeful that'll be the case,'' Thibodeau said. ''Very professional. Brings a lot every day to practice, preparation. And he's always ready. So you feel comfortable if you have an injury or foul trouble, you can throw him out there and he's going to do his job.''

Plymouth native Morgan Uceny's chances to win a gold medal in the 1,500 meter run at the Olympics just increased greatly.
Uceny has been considered among the favorites but hasn't been listed as "the" favorite for the last several weeks because of a remarkable run by Morocco's Mariem Alaoui Selsouli on July 6. Selsouli won the Paris Diamond League race in a time of 3 minutes and 56.15 seconds, the best time by any woman in the world since 2006.
Selsouli's doping test from that race returned positive and the 28-year-old old Moroccan has been suspended and will not be allowed to compete in the Olympic games.
"I'm glad she was caught before the Games," Uceny told Tim Creason. "She was already banned once from doping, and it was not much of a shock that she tested positive again after the way she ran in Paris."
"I'm sure there are other cheaters out there and I just hope the world anti-doping agency continues their efforts to keep our sport clean."
Prelims for the 1,500 are on August 6th with the semifinals on August 8th and the finals on August 10th. All three races will be shown on WNDU-TV.

- Studio: Menemsha Films
- Release Date: Oct 13, 2006
- Summary: Christian Bauer's film "The Ritchie Boys" tells a story that's never been told before. It begins in Camp Ritchie, Maryland, the birthplace of modern psychological warfare, and it ends with the defeat of Germany in May of 1945. After D-Day the Ritchie Boys became a decisive force in the war. Nobody knew the enemy, his culture and his language better than they. Their mission: ascertain and break the enemy's morale. (Tangram)… Collapse

Score distribution:
Positive: 8 out of 8
Mixed: 0 out of 8
Negative: 0 out of 8
A fascinating documentary with a high entertainment quotient thanks to the fact that the film's surviving subjects prove to be some of the most articulate, not to mention wittiest, octogenarians around.
These are men who know of what they speak; they're also eloquent, erudite, and funny as hell.
Christian Bauer's engaging The Ritchie Boys captures the excitement, ironies and "good war" feel of World War II.
Any thinking person – no matter what political stripe or moral belief – needs to see this important film then try to apply its valuable lessons to today's, still, unstable planet.
Still witty and eloquent, these cerebral boys became the haunted men who do their best to share their experiences with us, even as they know we'll never truly understand.
The visual monotony of talking heads and stock footage is interrupted occasionally by the spectral charcoal drawings of veteran Si Lewen, though his art is used to full advantage only when he describes the liberation of Buchenwald.
This is a film with a story we have not seen before, a story about American troops so unusual it needed a German director to ferret it out.

When listing the traits every good Christian should have, you may think of goodness, joy, peace, charity, modesty, and faith, to name a few. Physical exercise is one of the last things you would ever put on that list, if you were to think of it at all. With so many positive aspects associated with Christianity, why is it that church members, statistically speaking, tend to be more overweight than the general population? Does this mean that all Christians have spiraled out of control and given in to gluttony? Or could it simply mean that we have failed at exercising our bodies the way we should? The question then becomes, does God even approve of exercise?
The Bible says that the body is a temple. Like any temple, it needs to be maintained. It may be that today's Christians have taken verses like I Timothy 4:8 a little too seriously. This verse says, "For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things." This doesn't mean, however, that exercise holds no value. Notice how this verse doesn't negate the importance of exercise. In fact, it acknowledges it. All this verse does it place godliness over exercise in the rank of important values. Staying in shape has plenty of value on its own.
What the Bible does warn against is vanity, and an addiction to physical exercise can take away from your overall quality of life. Vanity, however, is not directly associated with physical health. A Christian can exercise daily and stay in shape without becoming vain about it. More physical energy and better health can mean more participation in church activities, mission trips, and devotion to spiritual goals.
The Golden Rule is all about loving your neighbor as yourself, but how can you love yourself if you feel obese, physically exhausted and look in the mirror only to hate what you see? Even Paul assumed that his fellow Christians were nourishing and cherishing their bodies (Ephesians 5:28-30). Why then does modern Christianity appear to be a majority of overweight, unhappy bodies? There is nothing ungodly about preventing your own sickness, prolonging life, and producing a richer quality of life for yourself and your family. Throw out those excuses and commit to physical exercise at least three times a week, even if it's as little as a walk around the neighborhood block. The end result will be increased productivity, which is better for your job, your family, and even the church.

Jobs, homes proposal for Snohomish County touted as eco-friendly
Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon unveiled plans Tuesday for an environmentally friendly development of businesses, housing and recreation...
Times Snohomish County Reporter
Community meetingsSnohomish County will host meetings to collect public input on how the Cathcart property should look and fit into the surrounding community. The meetings will be from 7-8:30 p.m. June 4 and June 24 at Willis D. Tucker Community Park, 6705 Puget Park Drive, Snohomish.
Source: Snohomish County
Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon unveiled plans Tuesday for an environmentally friendly development of businesses, housing and recreation on 600 acres of county-owned land off Cathcart Way near Highway 9.
The county envisions a job center, a transit hub, four-story condominiums and "green" businesses such as hydroponic greenhouses and solar-energy production on land once slated for a county landfill.
Reardon suggested that the project could allow homeowners in the rapidly growing subdivisions between Mill Creek and Snohomish to work closer to where they live and that it could be a model for low-impact development.
"This will be our showcase for a sustainable community, a place that will change development patterns in the county for the next generation," Reardon said.
The idea of creating job centers closer to burgeoning suburbs has gained popularity in recent years, particularly as a way to reduce fuel consumption and commute times. But similar projects, like the Snoqualmie Ridge Development in eastern King County, have struggled to bring in the right mix of business to the sprawling Snoqualmie Ridge housing development.
Reardon didn't attach a price tag to the Cathcart proposal, which is strictly conceptual at this point. He announced the plan to open a conversation with the community about how to proceed with the property.
Reardon also set an ambitious timeline for the project, calling for public meetings through the summer, presenting a conceptual design and proposed zoning changes to the County Planning Commission by October, and approval by the County Council by the end of the year.
The land has sat vacant since it was purchased from the county's Public Works Department for $30 million in 2004. It had originally been acquired to expand an existing landfill, but the county decided it was cheaper to send the county's garbage to Southwest Washington by train.
The County Council wasn't able to agree on a plan for the property.
Meanwhile, interest payments on the property are accruing at a rate of $1.4 million per year.
Reardon said the current economic slowdown will give the county time to develop a plan and be ready to move forward when business activity and the real-estate market pick up again. He said proceeds from the sale of 20 percent of the land for private investment could fund the remaining 80 percent of public spaces, parks and infrastructure.
The Snohomish School District bought 63 acres of the Cathcart land for $10.5 million in early 2005 for Little Cedars Elementary School, which opened last fall, and Glacier Peak High School, which is scheduled to open in September.
The high school's athletic fields overlook 35 acres that Reardon proposed for an office park. Housing would be located on a 73-acre hillside that faces east with expansive views of the Snohomish River Valley and Cascade Mountains.
Below the elementary school, 12 acres could be used for community amenities such as shops, stores, restaurants and public facilities such as a library. About 170 acres would be left as open space with trails, wetland restoration and the protection of a creek that flows through the property.
The remaining acres would go toward a new transit center, roads and infrastructure.
"We have an opportunity to take this gem in the rough and make it a great asset for Snohomish County," said County Councilman Brian Sullivan.
Most cities in the Puget Sound region have plans to promote more livable community centers with better access to jobs, shops, housing and other amenities. But attracting the right mix of private development, housing and public services — and doing it on a government-driven timeline — has proved challenging.
"These places evolve over time. The day-to-day services and businesses don't spring up overnight," said Ben Bakkenta, a planner for the Puget Sound Regional Council.
The Snoqualmie Ridge Development was intended to bring jobs close to a huge new housing development, Snoqualmie Ridge. But Snoqualmie Mayor Matt Larson said the city has struggled to find the right mix of business types to complement the largely high-end housing.
"You don't want a toothbrush factory, even though that's a great business, if your housing is more higher-market. You end up with blue-collar workers commuting from Enumclaw and Maple Valley, the very people who can ill-afford time in traffic and the cost of gas," Larson said.

I'm not having that exact situation, but for weeks I wasn't feeling my little girl move as much as I did with my son (there were 24+ hr periods of time where I didn't feel her at all). It made me super nervous. But in the past few days I feel her more and more and it definitely lessens my worries.

So, off we popped to the lovely Bowery Hotel, where a decadent (and some would say very British lounge) awaited 150 eager fashion folk. And as we sipped on champagne, anticipating what the new fall line would look like, live music filled the space courtesy of one of Simon Kneen's ( that's BR's Creative Director and Executive Vice President of Design) favourite new bands, A Fine Frenzy. It was intimate and sumptuous, so for fall it soon made sense that Banana's signature desk-to-dinner get-ups would take a turn for the seventies.
Uber models Hanne Gaby Odiele and Alana Zimmer chicly slinked their way through the oak panelled drawing rooms in glam but easy-wear flared pants, soft blouses, roll necks and sharp little jackets. But it wasn't a plain ol' retro look at this decade, because set against the seventies pieces were hints of heritage, too. Cue country gent checks, cosy cable knits and heeled riding boots. I very very very much liked those boots. And the leopard pumps, for that matter.
Not only did the looks hit autumn's ladylike and romantically retro mood on the bulls-eye but the colours felt fresh and exciting, the cuts modern and therefore, the response fantastic. Every fashion editor in attendance was ready to wrap up in the pumpkin orange super-long scarf styled with a neat, cropped camel double breasted jacket - even if it was 25 degrees Celsius outside!
We caught up with Simon before the show (who, did you know, is from UK shores and grew up in Liverpool?), to get the inside scoop on how the gorgeous fall collection came together. We also grilled him on the miracle that is Banana Republic's genius pattern cutting (seriously, I have a pair of classic black crop pants and I never look as skinny as when I'm wearing them!) and of course, the question on everyone's lips - what would Kate Middleton wear from his many BR designs? Catch some backstage action as well as the finale on these videos and a further in depth chat with Mr Banana Republic himself here...
What inspired you this season?
Well it all started when I was thinking of a classically autumnal colour palette. Mixing up camels, rusts and browns with the greens and oranges of the harvest. I have a little place in Conneticut and you can't help by be inspired by the fall in New England, it's incredible. This countryside palette inspired outdoorsy heritage twists too, like flannels, checks, cable knits and trench coats.
And so how did you move that idea on into this collection?
I was looking into 1970s icons like Catherine Deneuve, Faye Dunaway and Lauren Hutton at the same time and this idea of modern day heroines struck me. Women now are such heroines – they work, they raise a family, they travel, the see their friends. Women run this world, not men! So I wanted to modernise iconic seventies pieces like a silk blouse or flared pants.
So, tell us honestly, what trouser style do you think is the easiest for ladies to get into? And just how do you make the cuts so flattering?
Those trousers keep me up at night! We're concentrating on two new shapes for the season – a classic wide leg but also a flare. The leg slimming trick is in the flare starting before the knee, that's far more flattering.
And as well as these key trousers shapes – what else will a gal not be able to live without next autumn?
A good satchel bag, a smart heel like our simple pumps or heeled loafers and a great hat - whether it's a fedora, trilby or cloche. It's all about those ladylike touches.
And how should we be styling it all up?
Less is definitely more. Don't get too matchy and always, always, tuck it in!
The world has gone Kate Middleton mad and whilst speculation over the wedding dress has reached fever pitch, we're still just as interested in her day to day wardrobe. We think she'd make a great BR girl, don't you?
I think it's great that she's really supporting British brands but she would be perfect for our signature wrap dresses. We've actually been doing them for years but they're very Kate.

How honest are you?
Have you ever been tested? Have you ever been tempted? What is your personal limit of temptation? Well Sarge found out his limit of temptation one day long ago. And he has never regretted his decision. It happened like this:
In the middle 1970's when the Vietnam war was ending and the USArmy retreated out of Vietnam there was pandemonium and the people that lived in that country knew what would happen when the North Vietnamese would take over. The USA air lifted all they could when they pulled out. Some helicopters could barely lift off from the weight of the refuges that held on to anything even the sides of the aircraft to escape the NVA. And they that did manage to leave, brought with them all they owned on their back or in a pitiful small suitcases or bags. These refuges were taken to Fort Chaffee Ark. for repatrioting. And also the escaping Army units were sent there to guard and control the refuges. Because it was well known that amongst the legitimate refuges were infiltrators from Red China and North Vietnam. These spies and terrorists were sent to our country to do what ever they could to discredit the United States.
And here we see Sarge, and his unit, the 1139th MP Company. Sent to Fort Chaffee to control and guard the refuges and ferret out the criminals and spies. Sarge was a SPC which means Specialist,in this case Military Intelligence was his area of expertise. But like all soldiers he had to do yoman work too. Patrolling the base to watch for the criminals preying on their fellow Vietnamese and guarding the post against black market criminals that would rip the warehouses off in a minute.
One week Sarge was detailed to spend the days at the bank. The bank was a temporary building (trailer house) that housed the government bank so that the Viet's could have a safe place for their money or valuables. This was 'cush' duty and Sarge enjoyed it immensely. All he had to do was stand near the door and give anyone coming in the 'going over' look and scare the bad guys out. And to top it all off there was free coffee and donuts all day. What a tough job.
And then the Bank Manager called Sarge to the back room. This room was reserved for private deposits by people that did not want their identity or amount of wealth known. There the Manager told Sarge to lock the door and take his gun out of the holster and guard the door and the people inside. Sarge did as he was told. Inside the room besides the Manager was a little old Vietnamese man and a little old Vietnamese woman. The man was stooped and bent over and his wife was a copy of him. She was a chubby woman but had a thin face. They had two old cardboard suitcases with them and they held on them like it was their precious children. The Manager sit down and told them that they now could make their deposit. As Sarge watched with widening eyes they opened the two old suitcases and revealed that each was full of American currency. Stacks of 100 dollar bills all banded and crowded into the cheap cardboard suitcases. The bank Manager counted out the money and gave the two their receipts. Then the little old lady pulled her dress up to reveal an undergarmet of old rice sacks and it was lumpy. The man handed her a knife and she cut the lumps out and started to hand the Manager gold plates and lumps of silver. The old man was by then cutting the lining of his shapeless coat and he was placing on the table emerals, rubies and other precious gems. The pile of shiny metals and gems grew until it was three inches high and a foot around. The Manager weighed on a scale each piece of gold and each gem. The gems would be put in a safe deposit box and the bank would buy the gold and silver converting it to American money.
All told the hoard they managed to bring out of Vietnam added up to 1 million dollars plus the gems. The money and gold lay there on the table. And Sarge was the only one in the room with a gun. Yes the thought ran through his mind that he was the only one with a gun. And that much money in one place he would never ever see again. But the ethics and morals his parents taught him said that the money was not his. It was his job to guard it and the owners. And that is what he did. For the next 2 hours until the armored truck could arrive, Sarge sat in the room with all that money and gold and gems. The little old lady could not speak any English but the man was fluent. He and Sarge talked about their country and what it was like to have to leave it and be in a new and strange country. The little Vietnamese that Sarge knew allowed him to say "Worry not Grandmother, you are safe" to the little old lady and she soon lost the frightened and stressed look on her face and even smiled at her husband's occasional joke. Then the truck came and the money was transfered and the old Man stood at attention and saluted Sarge and then shook his hand. The little old lady gave him a hug and said thank you in Vietnamese.
Sarge went back to his station at the door and continued doing his job as he had been trained to do. And he had one new thing to think about. He now knew the limit of his honesty.

I'm honest enough to say that I (notice I did not say skullcrusher) have enough sense of mind to do what is right when right must be done. I (again, not in the first person) have been tempted enough to know the difference. I would have taken Saddam's gold AK had I been the one to find it. How's that for my honesty? I love pronouns, too.
From C3Shooter:
Skullcrusher, you are evil, sick, demented, twisted- and my hero!
I will have to agree with you on that one. War trophies are earned not stolen in my opinion. I have a SKS that was taken that way and brought back in a duffle bag. But these people had undoubtably earned their treasures and it was all they had in the world. Maybe they ran a brothel, or robbed someone to get the money, but I doubt. It was theirs and not mine.
sarge_257; Sir, I read this a couple of times. It is strange how some of the
"Montagard's'' (Yards) got out of Vietnam with what that they did. The early arrivals, were by and large the ?rich?, the ones that I have worked with {currently} are from the fields and mountains.
We are all tested by the Devil, he lost this battle with you. Don't despair, he will try again and again. Be proud, that you can be proud of oneself, doing the right thing once again.
♥ Exercise daily - walk with the Lord!
Sarge- remember back in the 60's when Army payday meant CASH money? Had friend that was a Class A Pay Agent at Ft. Huachuca. Talking over a beer at the club. He said, just thinking- here I am- right next to Mexico, with a loaded 45, and 1.5 million in $20 bills. Naw- the water sux.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.

Windemere Saga Continues: City Council upholds appeal of La Jolla cottage demolition
View the Windemere discussion and council vote:
and click on the 'video' tab for the city council meeting of Monday, Sept. 23. The discussion begins 51 minutes into the video.
By Pat Sherman
The San Diego City Council voted 5-3 on Sept. 23 to uphold the La Jolla Community Planning Association and La Jolla Historical Society's (LJHS's) appeal of a California Environmental Quality Act exemption, which led to the demolition of Irving Gill's 'Windemere cottage," formerly located at 1328 Virginia Way in La Jolla.
The vote is the latest development in a contentious, two-year conversation pitting development against historic preservation.
The house, built in 1894 and believed to be the master architect's first home in California, and the first Craftsman home in the state, was demolished on Dec. 23, 2011 after the City of San Diego deemed the property a "public nuisance," thus requiring its demolition (sans a normally required coastal development permit).
Historic preservationists argue that property owner Frank Bottini knew the cottage was potentially historic when he purchased it, and was aware of the costs associated with restoration or relocation of Windemere if deemed historic (from $750,000 to $1 million, according to LJHS attorney, Julie Hamilton).
Hamilton said that to avoid incurring such costs, and to expedite demolition of the cottage so he could build a modern, single-family residence on the site for himself and his family, Bottini altered the structure by removing "architecturally and historically important aspects of the cottage." These included redwood brackets in the eaves, and diamond-paned windows.
The changes, preservationists say, weakened the structure and led the city's Historical Resources Board (HRB) to determine it had been altered too much from its original condition to be historic, and the city's Development Service Department to declare it a public nuisance.
The motion to uphold the LJHS's appeal was made by District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner, who represents La Jolla, and seconded by District 9 representative Marti Emerald (opposing the motion were Kevin Faulconer, Lori Zapf and Mark Kersey, with Scott Sherman recusing himself from the vote).
"It is not appropriate to pretend (Windemere) never existed; this is a wake-up call for all of us about the potential abuse of the system," Lightner said when making the motion, noting that an environmental analysis should have been done when Windemere existed on the site, and not when it was finally performed, after the demolition on Jan. 11, 2013.
"Handling this any other way sets a dangerous precedent that will allow homeowners to intentionally damage and degrade a historic property to the point that it becomes a public nuisance in order to avoid historic designation so they can obtain a demolition permit from the city," Lightner said.
The issue will now return to Development Services Department staff, who have been asked to "re-evaluate the environmental determination" from the point at which Windemere cottage still existed on the site.
Lightner's motion instructs staff to conduct an "expedited" environmental review that takes into consideration a historic report completed on the property in January 2010 by the previous property owners (who sought to designate the property historic before separating and selling it).

For over four decades, South Africans lived under a government-imposed blanket of oppression. While the years of racial discrimination officially ended in 1998, many of the practices created by apartheid still exist in the conflicted country. Yael Farber, an award-winning writer and director raised in Johannesburg, has created many artistic works that express these years of turmoil. Her latest is Amajuba: Like Doves We Rise, which is being presented as a part of Miami Dade Colleges Cultura del Lobo performance series.
Written in collaboration with her cast of five, Amajuba is a visual journey that entertains with as much humor as sadness, proving the energy and strength of a nation through song and dance.

The new Shadow Warrior is out on September 26
Flying Wild Hog's Shadow Warrior is headed to GOG.com, Steam, and the Humble Store on September 26, 2013. Now that the release date is out of the way, let me just say that, basically, everything you need to know about the game is right here in convenient trailer form.
If you're one to like this chaotic style of first-person shooter, I'll add that the game is roughly as fun to play as it looks. The swordplay, in particular, is well done. Still no word on how much this will cost, but it ought to be budget-friendly. My only real concern at this point is whether or not Shadow Warrior can remain enjoyable throughout. Here's hoping it doesn't drag.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!Earlier this summer I posted a journal stating I would no longer be posting pictures of my creations because of my deathly fear of being copyrighted. I realized that this has held me back in my drawing because of the lack of feedback. So I have come up with a simple solution.IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ! by Teaaddict007
It's sort of like subscribing to a magazine. By commenting the sentence "Subscribe me" on this post, you are telling me that whenever I upload a secret picture/story, you would like to receive it through a note, and you are agreeing to never disclose this information art to ANY outside source. It would be like a regular post in my gallery, just so only you can see it. Sorta like a contract.
But! Just because you want comment that sentence, does not necessarily mean you will be accepted. If I don't know you very well, you probably wont be subscribed. Please don't be upset with me, I just can't risk my entire art career. I'm sure one would do the same. For those not accepted, I will still be posting other things lik

At Christ's Church Nursery School it is our mission to provide a superior education for the whole child. We value each child's unique personality, interests, abilities and family. It is imperative that our children consider C.C.N.S. as their "home away from home" and that they experience an environment that is not only conducive to learning; but a place where they can grow their self-esteem, participate in healthy relationships with those around them, and develop a responsible concern for the environment. As parents, we know that children need a warm, safe, and nurturing environment to learn, grow and suceed.rocover.
Smartboard technology is excellent for math and literacy skill building.
Many kids will have Smartboards in their Kindergarten classes. Our kids are prepared!
While CCNS is a mission of the parish of Christ's Church, our program is non-denominational and we value the unique spirituality of every family. Kindness, compassion and the "Golden Rule" of treating others as you wish to be treated is modeled every day by our warm and caring staff in a "home away from home" atmosphere.
Ann Leibell – Director CCNS
"We feel very lucky to have found CCNS and become a part of their community. They do so much with the kids every day we're constantly amazed at how they fit it all in. When we looked at preschools, an academic curriculum was very important to us and even though the kids may not be aware of how much they're learning, we see a big difference in how far they've come over the course of a year.
The staff and families at CCNS love and care about the children, and it creates a perfect atmosphere for their first interactions with a school environment. The teachers are all so creative, silly, loving and playful and the kids really respond to them and thrive there. Our son just graduated from CCNS and now we're sending our daughter there and to us that says more about the school than anything else"

Marsha Drake of Williston, is a jewelry designer and for five years has chosen to give a percentage of the sales from her business, Marsha Drake Jewelry, to the Vermont Land Trust.
Marsha says: "Having grown up in Vermont, I'm pleased to give to an organization that is working with landowners and farmers to help keep this state a beautiful place to bring up my own children. Vermont is well known for its open pasture land and lush green forests. I thank Vermont Land Trust for helping to keep our state known for these things."
We love hearing from our members and sharing interesting stories. Let us know if there is someone you think we should feature for their conservation efforts with VLT. Contact Christa at (802) 262-1229.
Many of our members prefer contributing stock, rather than writing a check, to fulfill their annual gift. By giving appreciated property (for example, stocks or bonds) you can avoid paying capital gains taxes on the appreciation, receive a tax deduction on the full value of the gift, and support the Vermont Land Trust at a lower cost to you.
Donations of stock can also be used to endow an annual gift or establish a planned gift, such as a charitable gift annuity.
For more information about gifts of stock or other appreciated property, or to discuss planned giving opportunities, call Jane Coffey at (802) 262-1204.
To make a gift, please notify your broker in writing that you are making a charitable gift of stock to the Vermont Land Trust.
Please call us or have your broker contact Jane Coffey to notify VLT of the transfer. This is important because your name will not be included in the wire transfer to our broker.

iiNet claws back AU$8 million from Telstra
Summary: The competition regulator has ruled that Telstra overcharged iiNet to the tune of AU$8 million in facilities access charges.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has resolved an access dispute between iiNet and Telstra, awarding iiNet AU$8 million in refunds for overcharging for facilities access.
Back in 2010, iiNet sought advice from telecommunications experts about the price that Telstra charges for facilities access for companies that wholesale on Telstra's fixed-line network. Their research determined that the charge that Telstra imposes for internet service providers (ISPs) to house the internal interconnect cable (IIC) — the cable that goes from the ISP's DSLAM to Telstra's main distribution frame (MDF) — was excessive, because the cost of housing the cable was recovered through other charges, such as rack and cabling.
iiNet said that it pays millions per year to Telstra for the IIC.
The ACCC made a final determination yesterday, ruling that Telstra must give AU$8 million in refunds to iiNet for excess IIC charges.
Telstra has the option to appeal the decision to the Federal Court by December 20, 2012; otherwise, it must pay the refund by January 3, 2013.
ZDNet has sought comment from Telstra on whether it intends to appeal the decision.

Date of Birth
August 22, 1985
Place of Birth
Just like she was last year, Eva Marie is again a candidate in the Maxim Hot 100, which basically allows fans to vote on which female celebrity they deem to be the most attractive. The WWE diva was nominated last year as well. Eva Marie is the only wrestling related personality that you can vote for, unless you count Maria Menounos.
April 30, 2014
Last month, it was revealed that a person was arrested after trying to scam Shane McMahon out of $20 million in a fraudulent bid to purchase Maxim magazine. Since the company is still desperate to sell, the belief is that McMahon could still step in and purchase them once the price drops to something that he is more comfortable with paying.
March 10, 2014
It appears that Shane McMahon has an interest in purchasing Maxim magazine. A story in the New York Post has revealed that someone attempted to get McMahon to invest $20 million into the purchase. However, it was discovered that the individual was actually just attempting to scam wealthy investors.
February 14, 2014
It looks like Maxim magazine will be attempting to set up a photo shoot with AJ Lee, so that the WWE diva can be featured on the cover of an upcoming issue. They recently conducted a poll, and she managed to beat out more known female celebrities.
January 13, 2014
On Night of Champions 2014, Cody Rhodes and Goldust defeated Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso for the WWE tag team championship. Rumors are floating around that management felt that the twins had grown stale because they ran out of teams to defend the titles again. Plus, Rhodes has really been getting into his Stardust character, so the front office wants to see if the gimmick can pick up further steam with a championship push.
September 22, 2014
Reports are surfacing that WWE will be throwing a last minute fatal four way match together at Summerslam 2014, where Cody Rhodes, Goldust, Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Curtis Axel and Ryback will all be vying for the tag titles. Management does not view this division to be a priority at this time, even though fan interest has grown.
August 7, 2014
While rumors of a Nation of Domination stable are still floating around, there are also talks that WWE could simply be building up Kofi Kingston and Big E Langston as a tag team because they need a baby face fodder for Luke Harper and Erick Rowan. Management is seriously considering putting the tag titles on the Wyatt Family, and they're going to need more than Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso as challengers.
July 14, 2014
Since management wanted to fill in some time at WWE Battleground 2014, the decision was made to book Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan into a best of three falls match for the tag team championship. The two teams have produced some good matches for WWE, so management is hoping that they can fill in a good amount of time at the pay per view for them.
July 9, 2014
Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso had their biggest challenge to date when Erick Rowan and Luke Harper challenged them for the WWE tag team championship at Money in the Bank 2014. The twin brothers delivered by retaining the belt. The Usos performed a double superplex on Rowan before finishing him off with consecutive flying splashes from the top rope.
June 29, 2014
Over the last several months, the Usos have been given more of the spotlight. While some of that is due to the Total Divas connection, the main source of their push is due to Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso being backed by John Cena. The trio has grown close backstage. Cena doesn't often use his stroke with management, but he has encouraged management to push guys like Antonio Cesaro and Big E Langston before.
June 27, 2014
Over the weekend, John Cena was injured during his match against Bray Wyatt, who delivered some headbutts that were a bit more stiff than they needed to be. WWE immediately took steps to protect one of their most valuable assets by changing the main event of the following event. Cena was teamed up with Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso in a six man tag team match against Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan instead.
June 9, 2014
Initially, there were rumors that WWE was going to add a tag team championship match at the last minute on Payback 2014 featuring Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan. However, management changed up their plans once they decided to include a lot of outside interference during the match between Bray Wyatt and John Cena. WWE did not want to take away from the big match by having the performers working multiple times last night.
June 2, 2014
In a segment filled with plenty of interference from Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Rowan and Erick Harper, John Cena was able to defeat Bray Wyatt in a Last Man Standing match at Payback 2014 after Cena put Wyatt through a big black box and covered him with an even heavier box. Rumors have it that WWE will be continuing this feud and something could trigger that on Monday Night Raw this week.
June 2, 2014
There are rumors floating around that WWE wants to add another match to Payback 2014. Speculations are that Erick Rowan and Luke Harper will be rewarded with a pay per view title match against Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso. There does not appear to be a high chance of a title change, as some feel that the Wyatt Family can get the spotlight without the belts.
June 1, 2014
"Almost a month on the road! We are headed back to the United States tomorrow! Thanks to all WWE fans in every country that we hit!" - Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso informing fans that they and the other WWE stars are heading back home after a lengthy tour of Europe.
May 26, 2014
WWE is not playing favorites during the current tour of Europe when it comes to Naomi Knight and Jimmy Uso. The newly married couple are working separate legs of the tour. Naomi is working with Paige and Cameron on the Raw shows, while Jimmy Uso is with Jey Uso on the Smackdown group. They will both be at Monday Night Raw together, though.
May 15, 2014
Earlier in the week, it was reported that Curtis Axel and Ryback would be receiving a shot at Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso and the WWE Tag Team Championship at Extreme Rules 2014, management has decided to put the match on the next episode of Monday Night Raw instead. A rematch at the pay per view is a possibility still.
April 27, 2014
As is usually the case with every pay per view, you can expect WWE to do last minute additions to the Extreme Rules 2014 match card. Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Curtis Axel and Ryback are expected to get the seventh match on the card. If WWE needs another filler match, then Emma, Santino Marella, Layla El and Fandango are the top candidates for that spot.
April 27, 2014
A video of Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso teaming up with Sami Zayn to take on Corey Graves, Conor OBrian and Rick Victor on an episode of WWE NXT.
April 26, 2014
While it has yet to be officially confirmed, you can expect to see Curtis Axel and Ryback challenging Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso for the WWE tag team championship at Extreme Rules 2014. The seeds for the match was placed when the former Paul Heyman duo attacked the Usos after they defeated Cody Rhodes and Goldust on Monday Night Raw last week.
April 25, 2014
Despite working a segment that is building towards a feud for the tag team championship, Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso were removed from the Hulu version of Monday Night Raw this week. The brother tandem defeated Cody Rhodes and Goldust before setting up their program with Curtis Axel and Ryback. WWE still intends to continue the story line.
April 23, 2014
Rumors have sparked about Cody Rhodes and Goldust doing a heel turn soon. However, that is just pure speculation at this point, as a lot of people are under the belief that WWE was testing things out at the live event in Saudi Arabia earlier this week. The brothers worked a match against Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso, but it was simply a matter of filling out the card.
April 22, 2014
"Obvious that Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso have committed to getting main event phsyical conditioning. I wish them well. They had in ring skills when they were eight years old. That's a fact." - Jim Ross praising the Usos
April 17, 2014
In an action filled Wrestlemania 30 kickoff match, Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso retained the WWE tag team championship by defeating Diego, Fernando, Curtis Axel, Ryback, Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro in a fatal four way elimination tag team bout. Afterwards, Cesaro did a face turn after Swagger attempted to attack him for being pinned.

United States crude oil prices rose more than two per cent on Tuesday in a technical-driven rally boosted by a weaker US dollar and forecasts for a draw on stockpiles of domestic oil products, www.upstreamonline.com reported.
Fresh unrest in eastern Ukraine provided background support for Brent as traders worried that heightened tensions between Moscow and the Western powers might interrupt oil supply from Russia, one of the world's top oil exporters, Reuters reported.
The US Energy Information Administration said on Tuesday it did not assume that a disruption of oil supply or demand would result from the events in Ukraine.
The US dollar fell to near three-week lows against a basket of six major currencies on Tuesday, which boosted buying of dollar-priced commodities such as oil.
US commercial crude stocks rose last week by 7.1 million barrels, much more than expected, according to preliminary data released by the industry group the American Petroleum Institute. A preliminary poll by Reuters forecast crude stocks rose by just 1.3 million barrels.
US crude oil pared gains slightly in post-settlement trade, falling by 23 cents to $102.31 a barrel in the immediate minutes after the data was released.
However, traders said they remained bullish as they awaited official data from the Energy Information Administration to be released Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. EDT (1430 GMT), that is expected to show that gasoline stocks and stockpiles at the Cushing, Oklahoma, delivery point fell.
Technical trading boosted Brent and US crude prices in addition to the support from fundamentals after both contracts fell to key lows on Monday, and bounced back in Tuesday's session.
"The seeds to today's prices were sowed yesterday," said Walter Zimmermann, chief technical analyst at United-ICAP in New Jersey.
"Both US crude and Brent held exactly, to the penny, to a bull mark correction (level). The reaction to falling to that key level was (they) ricocheted higher."
