An election
recount is underway for the district 3 seat on the Lehigh Acres Fire Board. The top two candidates each got 31 percent of the vote - forcing
an automatic recount of some 13,000.
The candidates say this race is sending a
message - a choice between the status quo and a new face.
race comes down to incumbent Larry Becker and challenger Ronald Krome - who says
he didn't expect to win.
didn't actually ever think I was going to have the seat. I really thought that
sooner or later he was going to win the seat," Krome
says he believes that's still the case.
you go into an election you cannot think to be a loser, you have to think to be
a winner all the time, and I believe the people of Lehigh will end up voting
the right way," he said.
leads the tight race. About 77 votes separate the two, which by law means an
automatic machine recount.
Krome, the tight race sends a strong message that the people of Lehigh want
months, tensions have been high between the board and union who have been at
impasse over contract negotiations.
not long ago, Lehigh Fire Chief Donald Adams stepped down after saying he was
simply tired of the critics.
signifies to me they wanted something different, they wanted change for their
board," Krome said.
does not share this view. He believes it's a ploy by the union to get what it
wants - more money. He says he fears his departure could ultimately lead the
district to go broke.
union wanted the people that they back on the board so that when it comes to
negotiations they will follow whatever the union wants," Becker
elected board member Jacqueline Danis says regardless of the winner, there is a
lot of work that needs to be done.
would like to see that the board and the firefighters works as a team that's
what I would like to see," said Danis.
the final tally is still to close to call after the machine recount, then staff
will have to count by hand.
If Krome wins, he will be one of three new board members. The other two new
members are replacing commissions who decided not to run again.

When Flip Saunders and Rick Adelman began to form this years Timberwolves roster, this had to be exactly what they imagined. A 3-0 team that comes out of the gate fast, scores buckets in bunches in the first quarter, then settles in defensively and plays with poise down the stretch.
In three games the Wolves have outscored their opponents 112-65 including a 40-19 lead after their only road game that came Sunday at Madison Square Garden. Kevin Love and Kevin Martin scored 34 and 30 points each with Martin finishing a perfect 5-for-5 from three point range in the 109-100 win over the Knicks.
Defensively, the Wolves followed up their masterful performance over Kevin Durant on Friday with three solid quarters against the Knicks. New York made a big run in the fourth quarter shrinking a once 20 plus point lead down to four points, but Martin's three pointer with four minutes left in the game doused the Knick rally.
The Wolves are 3-0 for just the second time in franchise history. The 2001-2002 squad was 6-0 before losing their first game. The team will try to remain hot tonight as they travel to Cleveland to face the Cavs.

Welbeck fields questions sent in by Reds supporters around the world...
Which player names were on the back of your shirts as a kid?
I had 'Welbz', but no players. If I could have had anyone, it would have been Giggs as I idolised him. I liked Thierry Henry, too, but that wouldn't have gone down too well on a United shirt!
What's your favourite goal you've scored in your career?
I'd say my first goal for United, on my league debut against Stoke [November 2008] – that was a special moment for me and I was pleased with the strike. After that, my first goal for England against Belgium at Wembley in June.
Which Reds would you want on your side in a snowball fight?
I'd have to go with someone with a good throw, so David De Gea. He has massive hands as well – if he hits you with one of his snowballs, it's hurting! I'd pick Antonio Valencia, too, as he has big arms and I reckon his snowballs would go straight through you.
Danny Welbeck has had to be patient for first-team, but the young striker told United Review he must be ready to take his chance when it comes…
In terms of game time, is it just a case of being patient?
Yes, it's important not to lose patience and make sure I work just as hard on the training pitch – do extra work, in fact – so that when the time comes and I get the nod, I'm match-fit and game-ready.
Everyone has been talking about our incredible attacking options, which include four top

Diabetes 'a UK health emergency'
7:16am Monday 7th July 2014 in National News © Press Association 2014
Diabetes is becoming a "national health emergency", a charity has warned as figures suggest that hundreds of people are diagnosed with the condition every day in the UK.
Diabetes UK said that more than 280,000 people a year are diagnosed with diabetes - the equivalent to the population of Newcastle.
Each day 738 people are told that they have type 2 diabetes - which is linked to being overweight - and 30 are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes - which is not linked to weight.
About 3.8 million people in the UK now have the condition and about 35% of the population have borderline diabetes.
Diabetes UK has called for more focus on preventing type 2 diabetes, saying that if the rate of people getting the condition continues the consequences could be "disastrous".
The chief executive of the charity, Barbara Young, said: "It is deeply worrying that more than 700 people a day are being diagnosed with diabetes and this clearly shows the frightening scale of what is fast becoming a national health emergency.
"If we continue to see people being diagnosed at this rate then the consequences will be disastrous.
"As the number of people with diabetes grows, we are likely to see even more people endure devastating health complications such as amputation and kidney failure and more people die tragically young. It would also lead to an increase in NHS costs that would be simply unsustainable.
"As a country, we are still not giving diabetes healthcare the priority it needs and we also need to get much better at preventing type 2 diabetes before it is too late."
Professor Kevin Fenton, n ational director of health and wellbeing at Public Health England, said: " Public Health England welcomes Diabetes UK placing a refreshed emphasis on prevention. We take the growing number of people at risk of diabetes very seriously.
"We can all reduce our risk by maintaining a healthy weight, using tips from our eat well plate to get balanced, healthy portion sizes, and getting active every day. We know that making those small changes, no matter how old we are, will have a real impact on our health."
:: The latest figures have been derived from the National Diabetes Audit from analysis conducted by Diabetes UK and supermarket chain Tesco.

Smoking can and will kill you, or severely shorten your life so we rightly legislate against it, advertise about its risks and tax it severely. Alcohol also will kill you in just one sitting and will also shorten your life and severely affect your health. Again its advertised as such, limits are advised and people are told and educated about it.
Being fat though ? nope cant say anything or do anything because it might hurt peoples feelings...
In fact lets make high street shops models fat too and encourage acceptance of a slovenly lethargic lifestyle.
lets make all the unhealthy sugary food cheap and plentiful,
lets not educate people about eating healthy, and the benefits of an active lifestyle.
lets turn a blind eye and the major cause of type 2 in the world and set ourselves up for a healthcare timebomb.
lets label obesity as a disease thereby shedding all responsibility from the shoulders of the obese because, hey its a disease its not like i can do anything about it.
before anyone chimes in 'oh its too expensive to eat healthy' that is complete rubbish fresh meat and veg is cheap and plentiful. For £30 a week you can by more food than you need.
and as my final point which i know will ruffle a few feathers here but is absolutely 100% correct.
why do we not treat people with morbidly obese children as child abusers ?

News: Rick Ross Joins Face Tattoo Fad, Shows Of New Ink
Monday, Jun 20, 2011 10:37PM
Maybach Music Group leader Rick Ross has joined the face tattooing craze as of late by showing off new ink beneath his left eye.
Based on a new photo, Ross now sports the name "Cazal" on his face.
Face tattoes = commitment. Placing ink on your face is a new and popular trend and Maybach Music Bawse Rick Ross just added more ink to his mug. Rozay took his obsession for shades to the next level and tattoed eyewear brand "Cazal" on the left side if his face. Ross reportedly has an insane vintage Cazal collection and now he'll be wearing the brand even when he's sans sunglasses. (VIBE)
In March, G-Unit leader 50 Cent discussed the negative side of artists tattooing their faces.
"That's the craziest thing," 50 explained in an interview. "Not necessarily Gucci, but to tattoo your face says that there's not a possibility that you can actually walk into a legitimate establishment without makeup covering your face every day. That does not work. It creates a separation. It says, 'I'm an artist.' That's it. That's the statement you make when you go and tattoo your face...But know that the public will not have interest in you as an artist for life. You have to be phenomenal. Talk to the best that do it and they will tell you that it will take more than you being an artist. It takes marketing, maneuvering to generate for that long. When you got 40 year-old rappers in the game, those guys have maneuvered and survived." (VIBE)
When asked if he would follow in rapper Gucci Mane's footsteps, rapper Waka Flocka Flame recently said face tats were not in his future.
"Like I just said, eh, we some wild dudes, [laughs]" Waka told radio host Bootleg Kev when asked about Gucci Mane's ice cream face tattoo. "Ain't no telling what [we] gonna do, man. [laughs] Nah, [no Fozzy Bear on my face]. Never. I ain't touching my face." (Bootleg Kev)
Around mid-January, Gucci Mane's highly publicized ice cream face tattoo landed online.
SO ICEY! Gucci Mane hopped up out of rehab/mental facility a couple days ago. And he may need to demand a refund. Dude visited Tenth Street Tattoo in Atlanta today. And got this brand new little nugget of classiness--a big *ss ice cream cone complete with color, 3 scoops and the word "Brrr"--covering his whole right facial cheek. Wow. Tattoo artist and owner of the shop, Shane Willoughby, is the artist behind Gucci's newest tattoo addition. And the master piercer in the shop--Jason Murray--tweeted the pics. (The YBF)

The sands keep shifting under media professionals who thought they knew what they were doing.
During my two year stint at Variety, the print product ruled and the venerable 107-year-old trade was accustomed to raking in millions at the top of the trade media heap. The Variety chiefs looked down their noses at also-ran Hollywood Reporter and Deadline's Nikki Finke, who was seen an easily dismissable "blogger."
To stay afloat as recession ad revenues plummeted, Variety slashed its most expensive name columnists and critics (including me) in favor of cheaper less-known writers and print support staff as it went behind an unforgiving pay wall and continued to churn out five print dailies plus one weekly edition.
Meanwhile under editor Janice Min, THR cut its print daily in favor of a consumer-friendly weekly, and surged ahead of Variety. Screen International restrained its print output to a monthly and took its daily online, while online trades the Wrap and Deadline mounted print Oscar editions for additional ad revenue. And Indiewire grew traffic with its smart trade/consumer demo and burgeoning blog network (including TOH), while retaining its online-only identity.
Now word on the street has Deadline owner Penske Media Corp. ready to acquire Variety for some $30 million--more than bidder New York Hedge Fund Avenue Capitol. No longer in the running is supermarket mogul Ron Burkle. Jay Penske, 33, is reportedly partnered with private equity fund Shamrock Capital Advisors. Just months ago Variety was thought to be worth $50 mlllion, which was still substantially lower than its pre-recession peak value.
The question is what Penske plans to do with Variety, a hidebound institution that until now has kept its distance from the kind of traffic-chasing economics that Penske lives by--he also owns Movieline, which has been trying to find its purpose, as well as Bonnie Fuller's breathlessly lucrative celeb site HollywoodLife.
Penske Media would operate Variety, which is essentially occupying the same space as rival Deadline, which poached experienced trade vets Michael Fleming and Nellie Andreeva after Finke sold her blog to Penske in 2009. Penske bet on stars with talent--the opposite approach taken by Variety.
Jeremy Tren | September 25, 2012 7:54 PM
It will never happen, but I wish sone of the Variety staffers would address this notion that their leadership spent YEARS ignoring, snubbing or just plain making fun of "bloggers" ... only now to (possibly) be consumed by a company that's built on them. Aren't they mad that management didn't do anything to compete? Aren't they pissed that nobody looked out for them during the transition of major media? Yes, some very talented people are there. But shouldn't their "parents" have taken better care of their future?

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - Seniors visiting downtown's Gary and Mary
West Wellness
Center Tuesday kept a
close watch on the government shutdown. While many won't be impacted, some,
like those looking for housing, could be.
"We found out today for example social security will not verify paperwork
for senior housing. When you look around, that's exactly where they go to
apply to one of these places," Brent Wakefield of Senior Community Housing
Mike Keller is one of those people.
He's been homeless much of his adult life.
"I was referred here recently because I'm looking for housing, homeless
housing. I'm a senior now," he said.
Other seniors who may feel the
ripple effect are veterans.
"Twenty-five percent of the people that come here are using VA services,"
Wakefield said.
CAMP PENDLETON (CNS) - Nearly 1,900 civilian employees at Camp Pendleton, Marine Corps Recruit Depot and Marine Corps Air Station Miramar were affected by furloughs prompted by the federal government shutdown, military officials said Tuesday.
At California and Arizona Marine Corps installations, 3,581 employees are subject to emergency furlough, according to officials with Camp Pendleton's public affairs office.
Nearly 1,200 employees at Camp Pendleton and its air station were affected by the emergency furlough, as were 360 employees at Marine Corps Recruit Depot and 328 Miramar employees, according to Camp Pendleton officials, who said civilian employees would be given as many as four hours today to turn on out-of-office email settings, set voicemails and otherwise secure their work space.
Public safety employees and employees that provide necessary utility services are exempt. Military pay was not affected.
Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton will remain open, as will its seven branch clinics, officials said.
"We have had to furlough some of our civilian staff, but in the short term, the shutdown will not affect our ability to continue to provide quality health care to our patients," said Capt. Mark Kobelja, the commanding officer. "As always, we remain committed to the health and well being of our patients and staff and will continue to do whatever is needed to take care of our nation's heroes and their families."
Camp Pendleton officials said that because of the federal government shutdown, base personnel and residents "may experience degradations in services and support from base agencies." That included the pass and ID office and base commissaries, which will try to sell off perishable goods Tuesday but be closed on Wednesday.
At Miramar, commissaries will close at 4 p.m. Tuesday, a base official said.
SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The Cabrillo National Monument and recreational facilities in the Cleveland National Forest were closed today due to the shutdown of the federal government.
All visitor facilities at the monument at the tip of Point Loma, including the Visitor Center, lighthouse, military history exhibit, tidepools, bayside trail, bookstore and all of the park grounds, will remain closed until the government reopens, spokeswoman Bonnie Phillips said.
Park programs and special events were canceled, which puts the facility's Oct. 12-14 centennial weekend activities in jeopardy. Field trips over the next two weeks that were to involve 400 schoolchildren will not take place, she added.
The Cabrillo National Monument, which provides sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, San Diego Bay and Coronado, is one of 401 locations closed by the National Park Service. Phillips said it gets around 800,000 visits annually.
About 30 employees of the park have been furloughed or had their jobs affected in some way, according to Phillips. She said a few employees will remain on duty to provide security and respond to emergencies.
The U.S. Forest Service announced that recreational facilities and campgrounds in the Cleveland National Forest areas of San Diego County are closed because of the shutdown.

Redwood History
A visit to an old growth redwood forest is unforgettable.
With the canopy far above and the open spaces below, the senses are overwhelmed by towering trees of enormous girth. In the presence of these silent giants, a person can feel quite insignificant.
Coast Redwood
The genus Sequoia is part of the CUPRESSACEAE family and contains only one living species, Sequoia sempervirens or Coast redwood. Coast redwood is an evergreen conifer that is found only in a narrow coastal band about 720 km (430 miles) long and eight to 60 km (five to 35 miles) wide from southern Oregon to the south of Monterey County, California.
Old Growth
Coast redwoods may live for up to 2,200 years and are the tallest trees in the world, reaching heights of up to 115 m (379 ft) with diameters at the base of 7 m (23 ft).
In 1850, 'old growth' redwood forest covered more than 810,000 ha (two million acres) of the California coast. After many years of clearfelling redwood forests, Californians realised that these magnificent forests were under threat and the result is complex legislation restricting forest harvest. Most of the remaining old growth redwood forests have been put into parks where they will be protected forever, a factor that has a significant influence on the premium price redwood commands on the local lumber markets.
Second Growth Redwood
Coast Redwood has a remarkable ability to coppice (regenerate from the stump). Once the old growth redwood forests were cleared, vigorous sprouts grew from the stumps, established root systems and quickly cloaked the hillsides in green. Although lumber from second growth forests is quite different to that from old growth forests, consumers willingly buy second growth redwood and virtually all of the redwood sold today is second or even third growth.
NZ Redwood
Redwood has been grown in New Zealand plantations for over 100 years, and Redwoods planted in New Zealand have higher growth rates than those in California. This is due mainly to even rainfall distribution through the year and in many cases, redwood stands on favourable sites are producing as much wood volume as radiata pine stands of the same age. NZRC has co-developed a growth model based on measurements over time of redwood stands from sites around New Zealand, and this model enables us to better predict future harvest yields for stands in New Zealand.
This table (left) shows details of existing redwood stands throughout New Zealand. The height and girth of trees in these stands have been measured and using the Redwood Growth Model, the yields have been standardised, to 35 years of age.

JACKSON, Tenn. (BP) -- While weighty issues of ethics are often pronounced from pulpits and courthouses across our nation, matters of morality are usually embraced and digested best by children around our own family dinner tables. Discussions of right and wrong carry a greater air of practicality when the family can see the whites of everyone's eyes and where the conversation is laced with "tell me about your day" and "pass the potatoes, please."
At his inauguration in 1963, Alabama's governor drew a proverbial line in the dust, threw the "gauntlet before the feet of tyranny" and infamously proclaimed, "I say segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." Six months later, a court order was given and the National Guard was mobilized to ensure James Hood's and Vivian Malone's entrance into the University of Alabama. Foster Auditorium became the showdown's location where the stand in the schoolhouse door simply could not withstand the force of truth and justice.
That evening, June 11, 1963, President John F. Kennedy courageously addressed the nation, delivering a bold and direct speech calling on each citizen to "stop and examine his conscience about this and other related events." Describing the issue of racial prejudice as a moral issue, President Kennedy articulated an idea which was "as old as the Scriptures" and "as clear as the American Constitution." He called on "Congress to enact legislation giving all Americans the right to be served in facilities which are open to the public -- hotels, restaurants, theaters, retail stores, and similar establishments."
Then he delivered what may be the most significant line of his speech. He knew that the heart of the race issue lay not only with lawmakers who labored at the Capitol, but with parents who were raising their children at home. Yes, there would be laws, "but" as Kennedy said, "legislation, I repeat, cannot solve this problem alone. It must be solved in the homes of every American in every community across our country."
We now find ourselves more than a decade into the 21st century. I personally take joy in the fact that my sons find themselves perplexed by those in our nation's history who treated others in such an inhumane fashion. For my kids, it's hard to imagine such a world where "whites" drank out of one water fountain and "coloreds" drank out of another.
Progress is still to be made, but my children do live in a land where -- in the words of Martin Luther King Jr. -- "the sons of slaves and the sons of former slave-owners [are] able to sit down at the table of brotherhood." My four children do in fact live in a place where they are judged not "by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."
Today's challenges are unique. Just as our children cannot imagine the trials facing President Kennedy's generation, I doubt he could have envisioned the day in which we live. As JFK challenged the nation concerning the racial problem of 1963, may we heed his words today. Let us realize that the solutions to society's problems begin with us -- in our own homes, around our own tables, with our own families.

Tulsa Police announced the arrest of a 36-year-old woman this week believed to be in connection with the murder of two women back in 2006.
Authorities with the Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force arrested Jaqueline Smith Tuesday in Mississippi. She was being charged with two accessory to murder warrants following the deaths of Dorothy Lindley and Linda Wright back in January of 2006.
According to TPD's Homicide Unit, detectives received "great assistance from the Okibbeha County Sheriff Department in Starkville Mississippi and the Kinder Police Department [in] Louisiana during the investigation."
Smith was taken into custody after an investigation that remained open since the murders of Lindley and Wright. Back in May of 2009, Hilliard Fulgham was suspected of taking part in the murder and was charged with two first degree murder warrants earlier this week.
Fulgham is currently being held within the Mississippi State Correctional System. Smith was taken to the St. Bernard Parish jail after the US Marshall Task Force placed her into custody.
She will be extradited to Tulsa.

Political Economy of International Infrastructure Contracting, Lessons from the IPP ExperienceWorking Paper
Erik Woodhouse
Issued by
Program on Energy and Sustainable Development Working Paper #52, October 2005
Private investment in electricity generation (so called "independent power producers" or IPPs) in developing countries grew dramatically during the 1990s, only to decline equally dramatically in the wake of the Asian financial crisis and other troubles in the late 1990s. The Program on Energy and Sustainable Development at Stanford University has undertaken a detailed review of the IPP experience in developing countries. The study has sought to identify the principal factors that explain the wide variation in outcomes for IPP investors and hosts. It also aims to identify lessons for the next wave in private investment in electricity generation.
This paper presents the conclusions and analysis of the study of the experience of investment in greenfield IPPs in developing countries. The term "independent power producer" has been used to refer to several types of enterprises, but for this paper, "IPP" refers to a privately developed power plant that sells electricity to a public electricity grid, often under long term contract with a state utility. For this study and report, the lead actors in every IPP are private investorsusually foreign, but often with local partners. The classic foreign-sponsored, project-financed IPP has taken root in more than fifty emerging countries that display wide variation in economic, political and social environments. The wide variation in settings for IPPs affords a special opportunity for researchers to probe systematically the critical factors that contribute to outcomes for host countries and for investors.

Harkin may introduce bill to end filibuster
by desmoinesdem, Sat Dec 12, 2009 at 02:20:03 PM EST
The Burlington (IA) Hawk Eye reports that Senator Tom Harkin may reintroduce a bill to end the filibuster:
Nearly 15 years ago, the Iowa senator first introduced legislation that would end the Senate rule of filibuster, or endlessly debating a bill until its ultimate demise. The bill ultimately failed to pass the Senate by a vote of 76-19.
Given what he sees as the abuse of power by a couple members of his own party whom he said are threatening to join the minority party if their every demand is not met, Harkin is considering reintroducing the legislation.
"I think, if anything, this health care debate is showing the dangers of unlimited filibuster," Harkin said Thursday during a conference call with reporters. "I think there's a reason for slowing things down ... and getting the public aware of what's happening and maybe even to change public sentiment, but not to just absolutely stop something."
Harkin noted with interest that his original legislation was cosponsored by Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., who has been threatening to filibuster the legislation.
Harkin's idea would preserve means for senators to slow down debate on a bill without imposing a 60-vote threshold for all bills in the Senate:
"Today, in the age of instant news and Internet and rapid travel -- you can get from anywhere to here within a day or a few hours -- the initial reasons for the filibuster kind of fall by the wayside, and now it's got into an abusive situation," Harkin said.
He and the constitutional scholars agree that the intention was never to hold up legislation entirely.
To keep the spirit of slowing down legislation, though, Harkin's proposal back in 1995 would have kept the 60-vote rule for the first vote but lessening the number required in subsequent votes.
He said for instance if 60 senators could not agree to end debate, it would carry on for another week or so and then the number of votes required to end debate would drop by three. Harkin said it would carry on this way until it reached a simple majority of 51 votes.
"You could hold something up for maybe a month, but then, finally you'd come down to 51 votes and a majority would be able to pass," Harkin said. "I may revive that. I pushed it very hard at one time and then things kind of got a little better."
This approach makes a lot of sense, although it will be an uphill battle to get a critical mass of senators to agree to change the rules.
Not long ago Ezra Klein publicized a memo from December 1964, which suggests that the recent election improved chances for Medicare to pass the Senate (by approximately 55 to 45). There was no expectation that Medicare couldn't pass without a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate.
One way or another, the current abuse of the filibuster in the Senate needs to end. The Constitution does not contain any supermajority requirement for ordinary legislation to pass the Senate.

Not Working chronicles the devastating effects of the 1996 welfare reform legislation that ended welfare as we know it. For those who now receive public assistance, "work" means pleading with supervisors for full-time hours, juggling ever-changing work schedules, and shuffling between dead-end jobs that leave one physically and psychically exhausted.
Through vivid story-telling and pointed analysis, Not Working profiles the day-to-day struggles of Mexican immigrant women in the Los Angeles area, showing the increased vulnerability they face in the welfare office and labor market. The new "work first" policies now enacted impose time limits and mandate work requirements for those receiving public assistance, yet fail to offer real job training or needed childcare options, ultimately causing many families to fall deeper below the poverty line.
Not Working shows that the new "welfare-to-work" regime has produced tremendous instability and insecurity for these women and their children. Moreover, the authors argue that the new politics of welfare enable greater infringements of rights and liberty for many of America's most vulnerable and constitute a crucial component of the broader assault on American citizenship. In short, the new welfare is not working.
Alejandra Marchevsky is associate professor of liberal studies at California State University, Los Angeles.
Jeanne Theoharis is Professor of Political Science at Brooklyn College, City University of New York and co-editor (with Komozi Woodard) of Groundwork: Local Black Freedom Movements (NYU Press).
"With this book, Marchevsky and Theoharis make a distinct contribution to the welfare reform debate by addressing a topic that has received less attention in the literature, namely how welfare reforms have impacted immigrant. Not Working is particularly timely as immigrants become more visible as they move to less traditional U.S. regions to find work and the immigration debate rages."
"Original and insightful. Not Working is a powerful book, connecting theories of the state, citizenship, and globalization with first rate ethnography. It is an instant classic and will remain the definitive book on immigrant women and welfare reform for some time."
"This is a scholarly, professional critique of social science research paradigms generally, and poverty knowledge industry and associated applied policy research in particular:"
"A smart, engaging, and groundbreaking study that exposes the racist underpinnings of welfare reform. A model of stellar scholarship and a must read for anyone seeking to understand poverty in relation to the meaning of American citizenship today."
"This highly significant contribution assures that Latina immigrants will no longer be invisible in scholarly research on welfare reform. This superb ethnography establishes a clear connection to the political, legal, and economic realities that is needed in reassessing the success stories of welfare reform. It should be read by all those concerned with social inequality, poverty, and justice in America."

Still, these studies have led some people to choose physical sunscreens over chemical ones.
"I have a tendency to opt for the natural stuff, the physical sunscreens," Friedman says, "but overall, the positives outweigh the negatives for all sunscreens" by reducing skin cancer and aging risks.
In addition, the negatives aren't limited to chemical sunscreens. The titanium dioxide in many physical sunscreens also degrades in light and can generate free radicals in the skin.
What's the best way to avoid the negatives? According to Hanson, the key is to use sunscreen properly, so it doesn't degrade in the sunlight.
"It all comes back to the need to reapply," she says. Most sunbathers don't reapply their sunscreen, or they apply it too infrequently. Hanson urges anyone venturing into the sunshine to follow the Skin Cancer Foundation's guidelines, which call for one ounce (about two tablespoons) of sunscreen for an adult's entire body, reapplied every two to three hours. The reapplications replace light-degraded sunscreen, preventing some of the free radical formation and more consistently protecting the skin, Hanson says.
Both the Skin Cancer Foundation and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend that babies younger than 6 months of age be kept out of the sun and receive only very small amounts of sunscreen when sun exposure can't be avoided. They say that infants' skin is more likely to absorb or react to the ingredients in sunscreens.
When shopping for sunscreen, Hanson suggests seeking out brands that contain antioxidants such as Vitamin E (often listed as Vitamin E acetate) or Vitamin C (often listed as sodium ascorbyl phosphate), which are added to many physical and chemical sunscreen formulations to counteract free radical formation.
"Look for sunscreens that have antioxidants highest up on the list of ingredients," she says, "as that means they have a higher antioxidant content."

The Bulldogs (14-4, 5-0) outscored Oak Grove 24-12 in the final quarter to make up a one-point deficit.
"We came out not focused and ready to play tonight and Oak Grove made us pay," Dora coach Michael Bridges said. "I preach to the guys that we are not good enough to just show up. We have to get focused and ready to play. However, I am proud that they battled back and put the game away and clinched the regular season area championship and the right to host the area tournament. That was one of our goals."
Dora trailed 19-9 after the first quarter and 30-28 at the half. Oak Grove held a 49-48 lead going into the final quarter.
Four Dora players scored in double figures. Kelan Bell had 19 points, DeKari Swain added 17 points, Kenton Petties had 16 points and eight assists and Darian Ramsey had 10 points and nine rebounds.
Dora travels to Carbon Hill for its last area game of the season on Friday.

The Irish Government Seized The Most Expensive House In England After Its Owner Defaulted On $80 Million Mortgage
The mega-mansion, named Updown Court, is located just 25 miles outside of London and was recently listed for $123 million.
Owner Leslie Allen-Vercoe put the house on the market six years ago but has been unable to find a buyer, according to The Daily Mail. When contacted by reporters, Allen-Vercoe said he had no knowledge of the bank's plans to put the estate into receivership.
The mortgage was reportedly provided by Irish Nationwide, which transferred many of its loans to the Irish government after it collapsed during the financial crisis.
Set on 58 acres of land, with 50,000 square feet of space, Updown Court is larger in size than both Buckingham Palace and Hampton Court Palace.
The behemoth home has five swimming pools, a $6 million marble heated driveway, a squash court, home theater, bowling alley, panic room, and much more.

The Oklahoma City Thunder are holding out hope that injured power forward Serge Ibaka will be able to return during the Western Conference finals against the San Antonio Spurs.
Ibaka was expected to miss the series with a calf injury. He sustained the injury during the Thunder's second-round series clincher over the Los Angeles Clippers last week.
The Thunder on Friday said Ibaka's calf has made progress after testing it.
"The abundance of blood and therefore swelling in Serge's calf has reduced substantially and unexpectedly, allowing a level of movement and stability not thought possible after the initial diagnosis," the team said in a statement. "Based on both imaging and physical exam, the considerable swelling in the calf indicated the likelihood of a certain degree of injury, and that established the original time frame for recovery.
"At present, Serge has yet to complete a full basketball workout, but is walking and doing light basketball drills. With this new information, and in an effort to keep his status current, we are now listing him as day-to-day with the understanding that there is a possibility for him to play in this series."
The Spurs lead the best-of-7 series 2-0. Game 3 is Sunday in Oklahoma City.
Ibaka is averaging 12.2 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.2 blocked shots in 13 postseason games.
Ibaka also led the NBA in blocks during the regular season for the fourth straight season with 219 and averaged a career-high 15.1 points and 8.8 rebounds.

According to a Charlotte County Sheriff's Office report, when the victim and men returned to the home, the men tried to steal several televisions and a gaming system. Detectives say as she confronted them, Jennis threatened her with a gun.

Eight men, each from a different part of Rhode Island, were nabbed in a child pornography sweep Tuesday called 'Operation Iceberg'. State Police held a press conference to announce the arrests.
A majority of the arrests came after a nearly three month long under cover investigation by the Computer Crimes Unit and Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force which worked to identify individuals involved in sharing images of child pornography on the Internet. One of the warrants stemmed from a cyber tip.
"Each person had an excess of 20 to 30 images. Some people over hundreds of images," said Lt. Todd Catlow who is the officer in charge of the Computer Crimes Unit.
Those arrested in the sweep include:
The men are charged with possession and transfer of child pornography and were arraigned at Sixth Division District Court in Providence, Third Division District Court in Warwick, and Second Division District Court in Newport. Those who were arraigned in Providence were released on personal recognizance and ordered to stay off the Internet and away from children.
"The investigation did not reveal any known link to any child victims," said Lt. Catlow.
Neighbors say the arrests have them on edge. They will be keeping close tabs on their children.
"It's like they can't even play out on the streets and be safe any more," said Joe Morais of East Providence. "It's pretty scary knowing that you have someone right next to you when you got kids your self."
Investigators are combing through a room full of digital evidence and say additional charges could be forthcoming.
None of the eight people arrested in the sweep work with children.

Five years after he studied abroad, UI graduate Mark Norris re-visits Reykjavík, Iceland and offers these reflections.
Cape Town is a huge urban center of South Africa, however, it also boasts a plethora of activities for those who love the great outdoors. Because of the surprisingly beautiful winter South Africa has been having, I have been fortunate enough to experience most of these exhilarating experiences firsthand!
"I wonder if U.S. customs will let me bring one back?" This was the question that kept running through my mind as I stared with awe and googly eyes at the reindeer and their calves all morning. It was finally the moment I had been waiting for, to conduct research in Northern Sweden in a Sámi, reindeer herding community. When I received my first call to attend the tagging of the reindeer calves, I was both nervous and excited. My thoughts were racing. Would they accept me?
As I now prepare for the launch of my debut novel, A Thread of Sky, it's a bit unnerving to remember that if I hadn't received a Fulbright grant, my novel might not exist today. Seven years ago, I was facing my last months as an MFA student and struggling to write a story set in China from my sunlit desk in Iowa. When a friend suggested that I apply for a Fulbright, it seemed a far-fetched notion...

Living in another country is definitely an experience that plummets you into the unknown. Everything you're used to is completely turned upside down. It's a scary, yet freeing feeling that creates independence at a whole new level. Nevertheless, adapting can sometimes be overwhelming when everywhere you look is unfamiliar. Here is my take on a few of the biggest challenges of living abroad from my experiences this summer.
Well, I've passed the halfway mark and I am officially in panic mode. I finished my first class, took the final, got to spend ten days with my mom while she visited, have started class #2, and now only have 23 days left of this once-in-a-lifetime adventure. I feel like a broken record… but WHERE is the time going? Cheesy, but time really does fly when you're having fun. Here's a summary of my trip through Florence, Rome, and the beautiful landscapes of Tuscany.
Though I certainly do feel little pangs of sadness when reminiscing on my favorite UK memories, I can definitely say I have gained a stronger appreciation for my life here in the states as well. For my final entry, I've decided to compile a "top 10" list of tips and things I've learned, so that whoever's reading might have some fresh advice on how to have a successful study abroad experience...
It's midnight in the north of Sweden, just below the Arctic Circle, and I can't fall asleep. It's not because I'm anxious or had one too many cups of coffee (which is often the case) but because the sun never sets! Most homes and hotels have blackout blinds or curtains, but my current home, a tent, doesn't. I decided, after a few restless nights, that I should buy a sleep mask. In the end, I have to admit, camping in the beautiful nature that surrounds me is well worth the lackluster quality of sleep I've had.
I recently completed a 5-day field study to Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic; Vienna, Austria; Budapest, Hungary; and Bratislava, Slovakia. What an amazing way to learn about the different cultures. Here are some highlights form Budapest and Bratislava.

Another Angle — Hollow me, breathe through
My grandpa died a few weeks ago.
It was sad and unexpected, but I'm thankful I was able to see him in Indiana the week before he died. I live in North Carolina. It was my first time in Indiana in five months. Five months. I couldn't believe I got to see him.
I think about stuff like this a lot, whether things are just a coincidence or if God has His hand in our lives, whether life is unfolding or if God is in control of all of it… Continue reading

Safe Body Art Act Summary: PDF
Body Art Operator's Guide: PDF
Assembly Bill 300, the Safe Body Art Act, was signed into law by Governor Brown on October 9, 2011. This law provides a uniform set of standards for the body art industry to protect the health and safety of body art practitioners, their customers and the public. Body art is an invasive process that includes piercing, tattooing, application of permanent cosmetics, and branding. These practices present the potential for spreading blood-borne diseases, such as Hepatitis B.
The Food and Housing Division (FHD) of the Department of Environmental Health is the local agency charged with implementing the Safe Body Art Act in the County of San Diego. Effective on July 1, 2012, the law requires that body art be performed in a safe and sanitary manner to prevent the potential for spreading blood-borne diseases; it establishes specific requirements for body art facilities and practitioners, as well as limited requirements for mechanical piercing. Click here to view a copy of the new law.
Body art practitioners are those who perform tattoo, piercing, permanent cosmetics and branding on a person's skin. They are required to received annual training in bloodborne pathogen standards annually to ensure they know how to prevent transmission of blood-borne diseases; they also must perform these procedures in approved Body Art facilities that have a valid health permit and are inspected by Environmental Health Specialists of the Department of Environmental Health.
AB 300 Safe Body Act Overview has additional information.
AB 1168 Safe Body Act Overview has additional information.
In June/July 2012, FHD provided informational workshops about the new law. Click here to view the presentation.
The County of San Diego is proud to present the Emmy Award winning Safety Stickler documentary featuring local owner/artist Mike Martin, who relates his experience promoting safety in the field of body art. In this six minute video you will also see how the County of San Diego works with local tattoo artists to protect the health of everyone that gets "inked!"

News: Juvenile On "Take Care" Premature Leak Hurting Drake's Sales, "It's Crazy 'Cause The Album Is Stupid"
Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 8:11AM
Former Cash Money Records' artist Juvenile recently weighed in on Drake's highly anticipated Take Care album prematurely hitting the Internet and if the leak will ultimately hurt Drizzy's sales.
In Juvie's eyes, Take Care is too good of an album for it not to sell off shelves despite a leak.
"It's crazy, 'cause the album is stupid. You don't want the album to get bootlegged, but when the album is this good, I don't think it will hurt it. If anything it might help it in the end. I'm definitely squeezing him on my album too. Before this album leak happened I was already back and forth with his peoples to get clearance to do a song." (BET)
Last weekend, Drizzy addressed the LP's online leak.
"I am not sure if the album leaked. But if it did thank god it doesn't happen a month early anymore.," Drizzy tweeted November 6th.
"Listen, enjoy it, buy it if you like it...and take care until next time." (Drake's Twitter)
His album began leaking track-by-track around early November.
Nine days before its release date, Drake's sophomore album has sprung a leak, starting with Just Blaze-produced "Lord Knows," featuring Rick Ross, and "Take Care," featuring Rihanna. The two songs off "Take Care" (Nov. 15) hit the 'net tonight (Nov. 6) while Drake premiered The Weeknd-assisted "Crew Love" on Toronto's Flow 93.5. "I know you've been hurt by someone else/ I can tell by the way you carry yourself/ If you let me here's what I'll do/ I'll take care of you/ I've loved and I've lost," Rih Rih opens "Take Care." Drizzy and Rihanna reunite to promise to "take care" of their scarred lovers on the album title track, which also samples Gil Scott-Heron and Jamie XX's "I'll Take Care of You." (Billboard)
A week prior, the LP's tracklisting found its way online.
1. Over My Dead Body 2. Shot For Me 3. Headlines 4. Crew Love 5. Take Care 6. Marvin's Room / Buried Alive Interlude 7. Under Ground Kings 8. We'll Be Fine 9. Make Me Proud (Feat. Nicki Minaj) 10. Lord Knows 11. Cameras / Good Ones Go Interlude 12. Doing It Wrong 13. The Real Her 14. HYFR (Hell Ya F*ckin Right) 15. Look What You've Done 16. Practice (Take Care)
Take Care is slated to drop Tuesday, November 15th.

The whole idea of this program is to empower the people with some small working funds in order for them to start a small enterprise in order to make a profit. Each village has a loan committee who participates in the decision of the loan amounts and the credibility of the loan applicants. The amount of the loans varies from $10 to $100. In America this would seem small, but in Mali with a per capita income of $1 a day, the amount has potential for an enterprise. The loans are set with a repayment schedule that will occur in a year.
The applicants present their request to the loan committee prior to our arrival in the village. During our stay in the village, the applicants come to the four of us and tell us their plan for the funds and the repayment schedule is discussed. There is a discussion that occurs between the applicant and us as to plans for the funds and how they will produce a profit. The decision is made on the loan and if approved, the paper is signed and the money is given to the applicant. A 5% loan fee is charged to the applicant to help cover the costs that are associated with the program.

In some cases, an unusual stool color is harmless and can be attributed to a particular food or medication -- but not always. Changes in bowel habits that persist can be a serious matter and should always be investigated by a physician.
Black Or Red Stool
Black or red stools can indicate internal bleeding somewhere in the gastrointestinal tract. Stool that contains blood from the upper digestive tract is black, tarry, has a distinctive odor, and is known as "melena." Stool that is red in color because it contains blood is called hematochezia. In the case of hematochezia, the blood may coat the stool, be mixed in with the stool, or even be passed without any stool at all.
Potential causes of black colored stools include:
- acidified blood (blood from higher in the digestive tract)
- iron supplements or foods high in iron
- Pepto-Bismol or other medicines containing bismuth
- black licorice
- large amounts of spinach or other greens
- blueberries
- other foods dark in color
Potential causes of red colored stools include:
- blood (such as from hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or diverticualr disease)
- red gelatin, popsicles, or food containing artificial red coloring
- tomato juice or soup
- large amounts beets
Pale Or Clay-Colored StoolPotential causes of pale or clay colored stools include:
- liver disease (such as hepatitis or obstruction of bile ducts)
- antacids containing aluminum hydroxide
- barium from a recent barium enema test
Green StoolPotential causes of green stools include:
- large amounts of green, leafy vegetables
- green or purple artificial coloring (popsicles, Kool-Aid, gelatin)
- iron supplements
- infectious gastroenteritis
- rapid bowel transit or decreased colonic transit time
Orange StoolPotential causes of orange colored stools include:
- some medications (such as beta-carotene and Rifampen)
- foods high in beta-carotene: carrots, sweet potatoes, apricots, winter squash, pumpkin, cantaloupe, and mangoes
If a change in stool color cannot be attributed to a dietary reason, or is accompanied by any other symptoms (such as diarrhea, constipation, weakness, or dizziness), a doctor should be consulted. Frank blood in the stool, or passing blood with no stool should be reported to a physician as soon as possible.

Beer: A fermented (typically carbonated) drink made from grain and flavored with hops.
Ale: Believe it or not there is no legal definition of "ale" in the United States. So, let's move to Wikipedia. "Ale is brewed from malted barley using a warm-fermentation with a strain of brewers' yeast. The yeast will ferment the beer quickly, giving it a sweet, full bodied and fruity taste. Most ales contain hops, which help preserve the beer and impart a bitter herbal flavor that balances the sweetness of the malt."
Lager: Compliments of Wikipedia again: "Lager is a type of beer that is fermented and conditioned at low temperatures. Pale Lager is the most widely consumed and commercially available style of beer in the world. Bock, Pilsner and Marzen are all styles of lager."
Now let's talk about food with beer. First and foremost, don't be hamstrung by opinions of others. Drink and eat what pleases you. The days of aloof and steadfast pairing rules are over. Consider these pointers as a starting point. Experiment and see what you like. Search the internet for great pairing suggestions.
Pale Ales: Match up well with salads, light appetizers and seafood.
IPAs: Known for their strong hoppiness. This beer stands up well to spicy foods. Also goes well with pizza, pork and BBQ.
Wheat Beers: Fruit, lettuce and grain salads, and desserts,
Amber Ales: This delicious brew goes with anything, in my humble opinion.
Stouts and Porters: These dark and rich beers go well with any meat dish. Also pair beautifully with chocolatey desserts, assuming you still have room!
Give different flavors a try. There are subcategories of this listed about, and sub-subcategories. It's really fascinating the more you delve into it. Expand your culinary universe with craft beers.

Spokane Firefighters say a dog died during a carport fire in northeast Spokane Monday night.
The call came in just before 10:00pm, and crews were told a car was on fire inside a carport that was attached to a single-story duplex. Crews arriving on scene saw heavy smoke and flames showing from the back of the duplex and upgraded the call to a working fire.
Firefighters quickly attacked the blaze and were able to extinguish it quickly, however the car and carport were destroyed. The backside of the duplex unit was heavily damaged and the front unit was ok, however all four occupants of both units will be displaced as the structure is not safe to stay in.
During the course of the fire, power lines in the alley behind the duplex fell and power was knocked out to several homes in the area. Avista is working on restoring service.
Right now the cause is under investigation, but officials say right now it does not appear to be suspicious in nature.

OTIS, Mass. -- A Massachusetts teen accused of allegedly raping three teens at Camp Lenox in Berkshire County pleaded not guilty in court on Tuesday.
A 17-year-old and two other 16-year-olds were arrested Friday, August 30th after the alleged incident at Camp Lenox where the City of Somerville had rented the facility for team-building activities for fall sports teams.
The junior at Somerville High School, allegedly entered a cabin occupied by freshman students on Sunday, August 25th and assaulted three boys who were a part of the Somerville High School soccer team.
The teen has pleaded not guilty to charges of aggravated rape of a child, two counts of assault with intent to rape a child, three counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and three counts of intimidation of a witness.
The defendant's lawyer, William Korman, says his client just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
"According to the victim, my client was telling the other boys not to do what they were going to do," said Korman.
The prosecution says the teen and two other male teens attempted to rape two freshmen boys and used an object to sexually assault a third freshmen boy. Berkshire Assistant District Attorney Rachel Eramo says the two of the victims were able to fight off the assault.
"The defendant and his co-defendants entered and began saying things along the lines of 'we're going to pick someone' pointing to various freshmen that were in the cabin," said Eramo.
The three defendants then tried to convince the accusers not to report the attack, Eramo said.
The teen is being held at the Berkshire County House of Correction on $100,000 cash or $1,000,000 bail pending a dangerousness hearing on Friday to determine if he is a danger to the public.
Under Massachusetts law, a 17-year-old is considered an adult and automatically charged as one. The two 16-year-old boys, whose names were not released because of their age, were to be arraigned in juvenile court on similar charges.
The investigation is being conducted by Massachusetts State Police Detectives assigned to the Berkshire District Attorney's Office assisted by State Police Detectives assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney's Office and the Somerville Police Department.
