California's multi-billion dollar deficit will be completely eliminated by 2018, according to the May Revise of Gov. Jerry Brown's state budget released on Tuesday.
Although not considered a "full-time" job, the weekly duties fulfilled by Turlock's elected officials often require many hours not only for public meetings and events, but also representing the City on other various local commissions and governmental agencies.
An improving economy is projected within the City of Turlock's proposed 2014-15 General Fund budget, which – despite reflecting $1 million in deficit spending – is a step towards a balanced budget in the near future.
Following years of neglect, the poor conditions marking Turlock's roadways – such as cracked pavement, dangerous potholes and deteriorated sidewalks – could soon be a problem of the past should the City Council decide to place a long-awaited citywide transportation tax on the November ballot.
Reflecting the bipartisan compromises agreed upon by state legislators last week, the revised 2014-15 budget proposal includes plans to save money for the future while paying off state debt.
Poetry may kick-off Tuesday's City Council meeting, but numbers will have the last word.
Opening government meetings with prayer was upheld by the Supreme Court on Monday, even if those prayers are overwhelmingly Christian - a practice previously argued by many to be in violation of the Establishment Clause.
After releasing three possible plans mapping Turlock's potential voting districts as the City prepares to vote on switching to a district-based system to elect future City Councilmembers, the City of Turlock is seeking input from its residents on how the districts should be formed.
A culmination of several months of hard work from the Mayor's Economic Development Taskforce, the Draft 2014 Economic Development Strategic Plan recently released by the City of Turlock was at the center of the 25-member group's meeting on Tuesday as they continue to build upon previous goals and develop new strategies that will keep Turlock's economy strong for years to come.
Even the smallest incorporated city in Stanislaus County is beginning to see some big changes, including holding its first-ever State of the City Address since being incorporated in 1972.
"A new day is dawning in Turlock. Our city has awakened with the hope that surrounds a new morning and the opportunities it brings. There is a new attitude at City Hall. Bold new ideas are emerging. Old divisions are being bridged. The city's growth and development are being reinvigorated. Turlock is a city on the move."
When the Turlock City Council opted to install the words "In God We Trust" within the Council Chambers at City Hall, the attention of the nation's largest freethinkers association, the Freedom from Religion Foundation, was quickly gained.
Avoiding an immediate revocation process, the Larsa Event Center, located on E. Monte Vista Ave., has been given an extended trial period by the Stanislaus County Planning Commission to resolve its impacts on nearby neighborhoods, after multiple noise complaints from area residents and unpermitted structures at the site put the center's Conditional Use Permit in jeopardy .
The golden arches could soon be seen in Downtown Turlock, as the City reviews a proposal to build a new McDonald's near Golden State Boulevard and Center and Marshall Streets.
After a successful first season of hosting a community ice skating rink, RAM Farms is seeking permission from the City of Turlock to not only extend their dates of operation but also expand the ice rink by nearly double in size.
Three groundwater regulation bills passed by the California Legislature are predicted to have a number of consequences for family farmers, ranchers, and other landowners and their passage provoked strong opposition from both Democrat and Republican legislators representing the Central Valley.
The Turlock Police Department welcomed a new officer Tuesday morning and introduced three new recruits headed to the police academy as the department works to increase the ranks after being chided by the grand jury for staff shortages.
Starting Sept. 2, dairy farmers will be able to enroll in the Margin Protection Program, a voluntary insurance policy program that will provide assistance to members in the event that they encounter unforeseen economic challenges.
As election season heats up Turlock's mayoral and city council candidates are becoming increasingly well versed in the nuances of Turlock's city government and all of its moving parts.
A third Taco Bell will soon be calling Turlock home as the Turlock City Council on Tuesday denied local citizens' appeal to reject the fast food franchise's minor discretionary permit location.
While Stanislaus County has developed multiple strategies to resourcefully combat issues caused by the ongoing drought in the state of California, the Board of Supervisors took one step further on Tuesday by unanimously voting to adopt a financial assistance pilot program for a select group of local water well users.
Congressman Jeff Denham spoke with locals about veterans affairs on Monday, but he didn't attend an event or host a public meeting - he led a telephone-townhall.
Locals protesting the establishment of a new Taco Bell in Turlock will meet before the City Council on Tuesday as the members will determine if the process to establish the fast food chain near Pitman High School will continue.

Product Information
- Tugg and Teeny published by Sleeping Bear Press
- Written by: J. Patrick Lewis
- Illustrated by: Christopher Denise
- We recommend this book for kids ages 6 and up
What It Is
Tugg and Teeny are the lead characters in this chapter book series for young independent readers. Tugg (a gorilla) and Teeny (a monkey) are proof that opposites attract. While they are as different as night and day, they are inseparable and help one another face life's challenges. For example, in this inaugural title Teeny is impulsive and always wants to try new things. Some of Teeny's ambitions include: becoming a musician, creating art and poetry and even playing detective when his friends begin losing things. But Tugg is the voice of reason and supports Teeny but also keeps him grounded so the pair can find good solutions for their friends' problems.
Is It Fun?
The three "chapters" in each of the books are actually separate mini adventures but should still give beginning readers the satisfaction of reading chapter books. The illustrations are very colorful and help bring the characters to life.
Who It's For
The publisher, Sleeping Bear Press, recommends Tugg and Teeny for grades 2 to 3, but once kids reach second grade, their reading skills can develop rapidly, and they tend to look for books with plots that continue from chapter to chapter. First grade, or ages 6 to 7, is our recommendation for the sweet spot for this series.
What To Be Aware Of
There are a total of three Tugg and Teeny books available in a variety of formats.

Recent Trail Running Shoe Reviews
Salomon Men's Speedcross 3 GTX
This is my new favorite trail running/light hiking shoe. It is extremely lightweight, has perfect flex in the sole, and provides plenty of support. The Gore-tex makes them that much better. My only gripe is that the traction does not seem like it will last very long. The shoe fits great. The lacing system makes it easy to adjust to your foot. I haven't met many people that can't fit into Salomon shoes unless they have very wide or very narrow feet. The shoes were comfortable right off the shelf. Full review
Altra Men's Olympus
For zero drop fans, this is a fantastic shoe for long, grinding runs or when you need some recovery cush. I've taken this shoe through mud, rocks, roots and it has held up great. I've also taken it out for extended road runs when the legs felt like they needed some added cushioning. An interesting take on a low drop shoe. At first I wasn't sure if I would like such a "maximalist" shoe. I've been a low profile, low drop fan for years. The Olympus pulls together the natural foot design and zero drop… Full review
Brooks Men's Cascadia 8
Great all around trail shoe, grip is fantastic and the fit and stability are superb! My favorite trail shoes to date! Comfortable and long lasting, with great grip, stability, and cushioning. Full review
Vasque ShapeShifter Ultra
The Vasque Shapeshifter is a heavily padded running shoe that attempts to buck the trend of minimalist footwear. It comes up unsuccessful however, mostly due to a sloppy high volume, wide fit coupled with the choice to use the BOA lacing system. The positives were the surprising responsiveness and the traction on a variety of surfaces. They are also reasonably lightweight for a shoe with this much padding. They are best for someone with wide feet looking for a heavily padded cushioned ride. In my… Full review
Brooks Men's Cascadia 8
Great shoes. I use them for hiking not just trail running. Sturdy, lightweight, and dry fast. Great for those who don't need a whole lot of ankle support and like being light on their feet. These shoes fit great and are super comfortable on a decent amount of miles. I like to hike in these rather than standard hiking shoes. They dry fast so I don't worry too much when crossing streams and they feel good because they are much lighter than hiking boots. Only after about 10 miles did I feel like… Full review
Montrail Men's Mountain Masochist
I torture tested this shoe on the JMT for 150 miles over one 12k rock pile after another. Wear on the soles was noticeable, but they gave excellent slick rock traction. Forded three rivers, same story. They dried quickly and I never got one blister. The blister free factor was, by itself, a huge point. Cuts, abrasions, a partial peeling of the toecap and heel rubber, but everything held together until I could effect repairs. This trail is too much for a running shoe, but these held up as well as… Full review
Salomon Men's X-Scream
A very good hybrid shoe. When I'm running my local trails, I have to run about a mile or so to get to a trailhead. That mile can be a pain when I'm wearing some of my heavier trail shoes. So, being a Salomon geek I had to go out and buy the X-Scream, if only because it was advertised as a hybrid shoe. I've now worn them several times on the trail and can say they perform as advertised—meaning they are comfortable on pavement and the tread grips well on the trail. That said, if you are running… Full review
Salomon Men's X-Scream
Transitioning from road to trail is a tough thing to do for a shoe. The Salomon X-Scream does an incredible job of providing rugged support for trails yet a smooth ride on pavement. Disclaimer: I own a running store. However, I do not carry Salomon products. The Salomon X-Scream is a new shoe in Salomon's City-Trail line that boasts itself to be a transition shoe from pavement to off-road. I have been turned off by Salomon's shoes in the past due to their narrow fit and my wide feet, but I thought… Full review
Merrell Men's Barefoot Trail Glove
A very expensive water shoe that takes a long time to dry. Covers your bare feet enough to protect from the elements. The ankle material/fit allows for a lot of trail debris to get into the shoes. Breathable material on the sides keeps your feet well ventilated. I would recommend this product to those who have seasoned feet, this is truly a minimalist shoe and allows you to do more than you would with a bare foot. But the fit, minimal sole material and support is not for the weak of foot. I would… Full review

LAS VEGAS -- A check of Las Vegas Valley Water District board meetings found that Southern Nevada Water Authority general manager Pat Mulroy missed 15 meetings from July 2007 through August 2011 but has been at every meeting since then. According to district board minutes, she wasn't listed as present at the following meetings:
Aug. 2, 2011 -- Agenda highlights included: receiving an update regarding the Clark County Recycled Water Feasibility Study Plan exploring the expansion of use of recycled water to irrigate county parks; and comment from Clark County Commissioner and district board president Steve Sisolak, who noted that in April 2011 the district awarded a contract to an out-of-state questionnaire development company when he said numerous companies in the county and state could have done the same work. He asked staff to review other professional services contracts to ensure that they aren't being awarded to out-of-state firms when local companies can perform the work.
Nov. 3, 2010 -- Agenda highlights included: approval of a $2 million contract for Microsoft Corp. for licensing of software products and support. (Mulroy was supposed to be on a trip from Nov. 3-5, 2010, first in Washington, D.C. at the Global Water Intelligence American Water Summit and then in Irvine, Calif., for the University of California, Irvine, Civil and Environmental Engineering Conference.)
June 1, 2010 -- Agenda highlights included: awarding a $2.3 million contract to Capriati Construction of Las Vegas related to Searchlight wells and a discharge pipeline.
March 2, 2010 -- Agenda highlights included: awarding a contract not to exceed $150,000 to Piercy Bowler Taylor & Kern for auditing services for the year ending June 30, 2010, with an option to renew for five one-year periods; awarding a $1.6 million contract to R&R Partners for Springs Preserve advertising and marketing services from March 2, 2010, through March 1, 2011, with the option to renew for five one-year periods; approving issuance of general obligation water bonds.
Nov. 3, 2009 -- Agenda highlights included: Selecting as underwriters JPMorgan, Bank of America, Merrill Lynch and Citigroup Global Markets for investment banking services related to the issuance of up to $450 million in bonds for the Southern Nevada Water Authority.
Aug. 4, 2009 -- Agenda highlights included: Nothing but routine items.
Aug. 19, 2008 -- Agenda highlights included: supporting district staff in the filing of a protest to a water right application in the Ivanpah Valley North Part hydrographic basin near Jean and authorize Mulroy to file similar protests in the future.
March 18, 2008 -- Agenda highlights included: awarding a $785,590 contract to Flow Cor of Boulder City related to a communication network upgrade.
Feb. 5, 2008 -- Agenda highlights included: rejecting the low bid of Petersen Construction, instead awarding a $1 million contract to Tand Inc. of North Las Vegas related to miscellaneous backflow installations; awarding a $185,000 contract to ENSR Corp. for professional engineering services.
Jan. 2, 2008 -- Agenda highlights included: rejecting the low bid of Harbor Company, instead awarding a $1.1 million contract to Acme Underground of Henderson related to well discharge storm drain ties; rejecting the low bid of Flow Cor, instead awarding a $1.1 million contract to Tand Inc. of North Las Vegas related to miscellaneous backflow installations; awarding a $1.5 million contract to K Construction of Las Vegas related to miscellaneous main extensions and water service installations; approving an agreement among the Las Vegas Paiute Tribe, Southern Nevada Water Authority and the district regarding water service on the tribe's reservation, a right of way for the water authority's Three Lakes Groundwater Project, and construction of infrastructure to connect the tribe's water facilities to the district's water delivery system for no more than $675,000.

Basically, I am 30 yrs old and have decided to become an architect !! Before you beat me down , let me finish.
This is a decision that has been nearly 12 yrs in the making. I have been in the construction industry in New York for nearly 8 yrs and am now self employed with a lot of high end jobs complete !! and also some fine woodworking experience under my belt. As far as art is concerned, I got a B in Honors and I also have 5 yrs of mechanical and technical drawing done. I can draw and paint and I also am interested in photography.
I have navigated the official web sites for DIT and UCD and I am waiting to hear back from their mature student body, but I wasn't able to find the requirements ! I need to know what I have to do? I'm sure all shall be revealed on Jan 7th when they return to office but I need to know now. I'm aware of the DIT entry exam and spacial test thingy majig. What does UCD require ? will I have to resit my leaving.....Right now I'm probably looking at 2009 to start any coarse. Does anybody have any information they would like to share with me . My interests lay in the sustaining, environmental and ecological areas (I'm a hippy ) so do these coarse even lead to such choices .
As I said earlier, this is a recent decision for me and I resourced this forum relatively short after so I haven't researched all avenues yet !! I appreciate all responses ..

Will definitely be a nice addition to campus. But, a few questions/comments:
1) Didnt't Paly just build a new science building not too far back, maybe 6 years ago? It already needs to expand? When will a third high school open to alleviate the need to cram 2200 kids into a campus built for 1700?
2) When will the school stop being a construction zone and get back to being a school?
3) Thank you Peery Foundation for the donation.

Wonder how long it will take for the District to get sued by the contractors for their failure to perform up to their promises?

Thank you Peery family!! This project will be a wonderful addition to Paly.

The doomsdayers believe this Friday is the end of the world due to the end of the Mayan calendar ironically the Mayans living in Mexico today don't.
The Mayans living in the city of Merida, Mexico, don't believe the world is coming to an end. They know the calendar their ancestors left them is the end of an era and the beginning of a new one but they don't think we're all gonna die.
Most scientist and NASA don't believe the world will come to an end either. They say the planets are not going to align, there is no predicted blackout for this December and the earth's rotation isn't going to change directions.
You can read more about the end of the world in the current issue and ironically the next issue of tu Decides the bilingual newspaper.

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!
(The ad below will not display on your printed page)
Makes 4 Servings
Prep Time: 45 Minutes
1 1/2 to 2 cups diced barbecued chicken meat, from leftovers or a store-bought roasted chicken
1 ripe avocado, diced
1/2 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed, or 1 ear of corn, grilled in the husk then shucked and cut from the cob
1/4 cup thinly sliced celery or celery hearts
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 head Bibb lettuce, broken into leaves, washed, and dried
Creamy Poblano Dressing (or quick ranch dressing)
Toss all ingredients except dressing in a salad bowl, then toss in the dressing or serve it on the side.
Feel free to also add red peppers, tomatoes, and cotija (an aged Mexican cheese) or any crumbly white cheese to the salad. This salad is also delicious with corn bread croutons. (Day-old corn bread actually works best, because it will be drier. If you use fresh, you can dry it out in a 350-degree oven for a few minutes.) Cut the corn bread into cubes, toss them with a little melted butter, and toast in a 350-degree oven until golden brown and crisp. Let them cool, and toss with the salad.
Grilling Corn
Grilled corn has a sweet, smoky flavor that's great on its own (eaten off the cob with butter and a squirt of lime) and in salads. You'll want to grill the corn in its husk, because this preserves moisture and imparts a distinctive sweet and "corny" flavor. Simply soak the ears in cold water for about 20 minutes. Place them directly on a medium-low grill or over pale gray coals, and cover. Grill for about 20 minutes, turning the cobs every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking. As with any cooked corn, you'll know it's done when the kernels are tender and release a milky liquid when pierced. Peel away the husk and silk and serve as you wish.
Roasting Peppers and Chilies
To roast fresh poblanos or other peppers or chilies, place them directly on the grill over a low flame on a gas range, or on a baking sheet under a broiler, and char until evenly blackened, turning as necessary. Transfer peppers to a bowl and cover with a hand towel for about 5 minutes to steam the peppers (this will make their skins easier to remove). Alternatively, you can steam the peppers in a sealed plastic bag. Use your paring knife and/or your fingers to remove the stem, seeds, and skin from the peppers and use the smoky flesh as directed in the recipe.

Let me start off by saying I love your magazine. Itgives many kids in my advanced language arts class a place to send theirwork.
I have a few concerns about the note you send to submitting writers.The letter your company sends back reads:
Thanks for the item(s) that yousent. Each piece is read at least once and most are reviewed by more than oneeditor, so be assured that your work has been thoughtfully considered forpublication.
We've included a Teen Ink bookmark as a little thank you forsending your work. Be sure to see our changing site (Teen Ink.com) and look forthe SIX Teen Ink books in bookstores or online ...
We appreciate all thepoetry we receive and publish three Poetry Journals each year with an additional1,000 poems. But, you definitely have a better chance of being published in anyother section. Also, why not interview someone special and be eligible to win acelebrity interview?
Sincerely, The Meyers,
I appreciate that my pieces have been reviewed,but were they published or not? I think that you should inform writers of thefate of their work that took so much time to write, not keep them guessing andhoping that someone, somewhere read it. If you don't wish to write individualresponses to every person who submits to your magazine - and I'm sure you don't,since there are so many of them - perhaps you could simply add to your returnletter the words "you will be notified if your work has beenpublished." That would satisfy the writers who submit their work to yourmagazine.
Thank you for your time, and I hope you consider mysuggestions.
Editor's Note: Thank you, Eldon, for yourthoughtful comments. We will indeed change the wording of our acknowledgment(which is only meant to assure you that we received your submission) since we getfar too many pieces to notify each creator of the fate of their piece.
Any teen who is published in Teen Ink or the Poetry Journal receives acopy of the issue with his or her work in it, a congratulatory letter and someTeen Ink items. This is why it is so important to follow the submissionguidelines and include all your contact information.
This piece has been published in Teen Ink's monthly print magazine.

I am in the minority having never been a fan of the trapeze, but I love chic the tri-colored "fold over" bag in brown, cream and red (orange?)!
I absolutely ADORE that one, and I hate brown. Celine can even find a way to make me like brown. Celine is magic.
My favorite also – the bottom of page 8? Perfect color combo.
love the "fold over" bags as well! does anyone know how much it costs?
Unfortunately, I can't find any price information on the new models. Celine is a bit cagey, so usually price info comes from retail and these bags haven't started coming into stores yet.
Are those bags at the end the EDGE? I really like those and will be interested in their price point. Some of Celine's prices are pretty ridiculous (i.e., the Phantom Cabas which costs almost as much as a regular Phantom!). The fold-over hobos look interesting as well. If the price is right, I would definitely consider getting one of those.
Love the ones on p. 14!
LOVE the all-soft!! Must say the collection is quite inspiring.
good cheap celine bags- tophandbagsuk,com
Are they coming out with any python cabas' with this collection?
Does anybody know when these bags come out next year?! I feel like whenever I get to Holt Renfrew to buy a trapeze, the sales rep just tells me they're sold out and I could get on the waiting list if I want, but I want to see them, perhaps try them on before I make a purchase. The beige and black trapeze with navy flaps looks gorgeous in the picture!
no more trio? :(
Do you know if the Phantom is still coming out?
This style is very good

Intelligence officials say the Syrian civil war has become one of the biggest magnets for Islamic extremists around the globe since CIA-backed militants fought to oust Soviet troops from Afghanistan in the 1980s, a war that ultimately gave rise to Al Qaeda.
James Clapper, the U.S. director of national intelligence, told the House Intelligence Committee on Tuesday that "7,500 or so" foreign fighters are in Syria from 50 countries. Clapper had cited an estimate of 7,000 at a Senate hearing last week.
A U.S. intelligence official told The Times that the total includes at least 50 Americans, a more concrete estimate than authorities have given previously. He declined to be identified because he was not authorized to discuss the figure publicly.
A report in January by the Israel-based Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center estimated that as many as 1,800 people from European countries have also fought in Syria.
CIA Director John Brennan said Tuesday that Al Qaeda is training foreign fighters at camps in Syria and neighboring Iraq.
"We are concerned about the use of Syrian territory by the Al Qaeda organization to recruit individuals … to use Syria as a launching pad" for attacks on the West, Brennan said.
A member of the Barrio Azteca gang who's serving as a U.S. government witness testified this week that his border-based gang received training from Mexico's notorious Zetas drug cartel on how to become top-notch killing machines.
Testifying at the trial of Azteca leader Arturo Gallegos Castrellón, gang member Jesus Ernesto "Camello" Chávez Castillo said that Barrio Azteca, a ruthless gang based in El Paso and across the border in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, sent two teams to the city of Torreón to train with the Zetas, where among other methods they were taught to kill people traveling inside moving cars.
Formed in the jails of El Paso, Texas in 1986, Barrio Azteca has become one of the largest crime groups in the United States, with a purported 3,000 members in the U.S. in locations such as New Mexico, Texas, Mass., and Penn., and at least 5,000 members in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
The gang, which has many members that hold dual citizenship allowing for quick border crossings, is believed to be behind that assassination of two U.S. consulate employees and a Mexican national in Ciudad Juárez in March of 2010.
Chávez testified at the Gallegos trial, where the purported Barrio Azteca leader is charged with being involved in the slayings of the consulate employees.
Arthur Redelfs, his wife Lesley and Jorge Salcido were traveling in white SUVs in Ciudad Juárez in 2010 when Barrio Azteca member targeted their cars, according to prosecutors. Lesley Enriquez Redelfs worked at the U.S. Consulate and Salcido was married to another consulate worker.
During his testimony, Chávez said that Barrio Azteca members suspected that U.S. consulate employees were helping the rival Sinaloa drug cartel get visas so they could sell drugs in neighboring El Paso for cheaper prices. Gallegos also allegedly ordered all Barrio Azteca members to be on the lookout for a white Honda Pilot SUV they had been tracking, after confirming it was used by U.S. consulate workers.
Chávez added that he controlled a group of hit squads that were responsible for killing more than 2,000 people in Juárez in a war between the Carrillo Fuentes organization (aligned with Barrio Azteca) and Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán's Sinaloa Cartel.
The admitted hitman also said that he was responsible for killing 800 people in Juárez between January and August of 2009, but that he stopped counting after that. He added that Barrio Azteca hit squads were given a quota of at least eight people per day in Ciudad Juárez.
The trial continues this week in El Paso federal court.

The Obama administration has issued new exemptions to a law that bars certain asylum-seekers and refugees who provided "limited material support" to terrorists who are believed to pose no threat from the U.S.
The Department of Homeland Security and the State Department published the new exemptions Wednesday in the Federal Register to narrow a ban in the Immigration and Nationality Act excluding refugees and asylum seekers who had provided limited material support, no matter how minor, to terrorists.
"These exemptions cover five kinds of limited material support that have adversely and unfairly affected refugees and asylum seekers with no tangible connection to terrorism: material support that was insignificant in amount or provided incidentally in the course of everyday social, commercial, family or humanitarian interactions, or under significant pressure," a DHS official explained to The Daily Caller.
Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson and Secretary of State John Kerry signed the exemptions.
DHS contends that the law change is "commonsense" and that immigration procedures will remain the same in other respects.
"In addition to rigorous background vetting, including checks coordinated across several government agencies, these exemptions will only be applied on a case-by-case basis after careful review and all security checks have cleared," the official added. "This exemption process is vital to advancing the U.S. government's twin goal of protecting the world's most vulnerable persons while ensuring U.S. national security and public safety."
While the administration says the rule change is reasonable, former State Department official and current director of policy studies for the Center for Immigration StudiesJessica Vaughan questioned the administration's right to unilaterally change the law.
"[T]here is a very legitimate question as to whether the administration actually has the authority to change the law in this way," Vaughan wrote in an email to TheDC. "It seems to me that they are announcing that they will be disregarding yet another law written by Congress that they don't like and are replacing it with their own guidelines, which in this case appear to be extremely broad and vague, and which are sure to be exploited by those seeking to game our generous refugee admissions program."

A senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood was recently hosted at the White House for a meeting with President Barack Obama, prompting an outcry from critics of the global Islamist organization.
Anas Altikriti, a top British lobbyist for the Muslim Brotherhood whose father heads Iraq's Muslim Brotherhood party, recently met with the president and Vice President Joe Biden as part of a delegation discussing problems in Iraq.
Altikriti, whose work has also been tied to Hamas, can be seen smiling in photos published by the White House as he stands next to Iraqi Parliament Speaker Usama al-Nujaifi, who is pictured shaking hands with President Obama in the White House's Roosevelt Room. The meeting was first highlighted by the blog Harry's Place.
The Obama administration has been criticized its outreach to the Muslim Brotherhood, the international Islamist organization whose members' brief reign in Egypt was supported by the White House.
Nujaifi, Altikriti, and other members of the Iraqi delegation were in town late January to discuss al Qaeda's growing presence in Iraq. Nujaifi himself was reported to have met twice with President Obama, though it remains unclear if Altikriti accompanied him on both occasions.
"President Barack Obama greets Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi, Iraqi Council of Representatives, after he drops by Vice President Joe Biden's meeting with the Speaker in the Roosevelt Room of the White House," read the White House's photo caption, which clearly shows Altikriti standing to al-Nujaifi's right side.
A White House spokesman confirmed that Altikriti was brought to the meeting to serve as a translator for al-Nujaifi.
Others present in the meeting included "Puneet Talwar, senior director for Iraq, Iran, and the Gulf at the [National Security Council], Philip Gordon, special assistant to the president and White House director for the Middle East, Brett McGurk, deputy assistant secretary for Iraq and Iran, and Andrew Kim, director for Iraq," according to the White House pool report filed on that day.
The meeting focused on ways the United States can help local Iraqi leaders combat al Qaeda.
"This afternoon, President Obama joined Vice President Joe Biden's meeting with Iraqi Council of Representatives Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi and a delegation of Iraqi parliamentarians," read a Jan. 22 statement issued by the White House about the meeting. "Both sides reaffirmed the importance of the strategic partnership between the United States and Iraq."
Altikriti's presence in the White House was surprising to many who said the U.K. organization he heads, the Cordoba Foundation, has been singled out by British Prime Minister David Cameron as the "political front for the Muslim Brotherhood."
Paul Stott, an U.K. academic and expert in British jihadism at the University of East Anglia, said Altikriti's presence in the meetings represents "part of the long term U.S.-U.K. engagement with the Muslim Brotherhood, a strategy which hit choppy waters when it became clear people in Egypt were far from ready to let the [Muslim Brotherhood] run the country the way they wanted."
"The coup could have put paid to this glad handing, but it is clearly continuing," Stott said.
Altikriti has been called the "key political lobbyist for the Muslim Brotherhood in Britain."
His Cordoba Foundation has been criticized for working "closely with other British extremist groups which seek the creation of an Islamic dictatorship, or caliphate, in Europe," according to the British Telegraph newspaper.
Altikriti formerly served as a spokesman for the British Muslim Initiative (BMI), a group that has been singled out for close links to Hamas. BMI's founder and president Mohammed Sawalha has served as a senior military operative for Hamas.
Altikriti himself has stirred controversy for publicly backing Hamas and advocating that Iraqis use "any means and methods" to free themselves from occupation.
Altikriti also defended the Muslim Council of Britain's 2007 decision to boycott Holocaust Memorial Day. He referred to the group's position as a "principled stand."
The Cordoba Foundation did not respond to a request for comment.

text: PRINTING PERFECTIONTHE ART OF BETH VAN HOESENMay 29 | September 29 Beth Van Hoesen, who lived and worked for most of her life in San Francisco, was born in Boise, Idaho, in 1926. After graduating with a BA from Stanford in 1948, she went on to study in Paris and Mexico City. She dedicated herself exclusively to printmaking in 1956 and excelled at the intaglio processes of etching, drypoint, and aquatint. In 1959, Van Hoesen and her husband, artist Mark Adams, purchased a 1910 firehouse in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood and made it their home and studio. Along with fellow artists, including Wayne Thiebaud, Van Hoesen and Adams hired models for weekly drawing sessions in the firehouse, making it a nexus for the Bay Area's art community. Van Hoesen's prints are first and foremost examples of great technical achievement. Renowned for her perfectionism, Van Hoesen often created many working proofs with detailed notes for changes she wanted made, before finally getting an image that met her incredibly high standards of refinement and finish. Typical of her method is Sally, a complicated combination of etching, drypoint, aquatint, and roulette; the image went through at least twelve revisions, what the artist called "stages," before getting what she wanted. Van Hoesen combined this technical virtuosity with her keen eye for texture, color, and line to create her alluring prints. In 2011, the Trustees of the E. Mark Adams and Beth Van Hoesen Adams Trust approached the McNay about a donation of the artist's works to the museum. The gift was particularly welcome since it included numerous preparatory drawings and working proofs that are so essential to teaching our public about the sometimes difficult printmaking processes. This is the first time these generous gifts have been exhibited publicly. This exhibition was organized by the McNay Art Museum. The Elizabeth Huth Coates Exhibition Endowment and the Arthur and Jane Stieren Fund for Exhibitions are generously funding this exhibition.

News. July 1984, part 1.
SECTION ONE.The House Style of SRI has been applied to this Section
Letter from Mona Cross, Editor, Northampton. July, 1984.Dear Members and interested people,
You will be as disappointed as I am that your articles and letters hav not been delt with from last December until now. In future we shall aim at a bulletin made in February and March, another in June and July, and a third in October and November. I shall need articles intended for those particular periods to reach me by February 1st, June 1st or October 1st respectively. Thank you for your support of the News Bulletin and for our work dun thru committee meetings. It has been a special reward to us to hav visits from members at our meetings. Maybe we shall hav the pleasure of seeing you there sometime, and of meeting you too at the Conference which is to be held on one weekend in the Summer of 1985.
I hav designed the cover of this Bulletin to show you the countries from which we receive letters and articles. I hav put words in the border to test your reaction to sum of the spellings proposed for Stage I and later stages. So far two people hav stalled on the same two words. Let me know if you do the same please. (Answer elsewher in the bulletin).
The S.S.S. News Bulletin is a forum for those interested in spelling reform. Therefor it not only uses as the House Style those reforms accepted by the committee and based on the 1984 "Working Party Proposals", but informs you of other reforms, the chief of which ar "cut spellings". If you ar about to repeat those familiar words, "Why, they can't even agree among themselves," - paus befor uttering them, then ask yourself, "In which group of peopl is there agreement? In the Church of England? In the Conservative Party?" It is in neither of those comparatively orthodox groups, yet each has a firm goal. So hav we.
It seems to me that promoting methods of gaining publicity for our caus is harder than creating a spelling system, judging by the number of well considered ones created this century. John Ogden, Preston, Lancashire, a new member of our committee, has recently made special proposals. And I am delighted that he will be a coordinator with regard to the letters and articles published in newspapers. We need to "follow up" every articl. If you send the articl (not cut out, but preferably with the newspaper or part of it) to Mr. Ogden, he can then pass it on to one of a group of society members who will endeavour to rite in the appropriate way according to the tenor of the newspaper. You will then hav to forward the anticipated correspondence to him.
Do you re-call that Valerie Yule tried to promote a "SPELLING SPOTTER'S DAY on SEPTEMBER 30th". She has first class material for this, including games and illustrations. Maybe your newspaper would enjoy taking up the idea. Valerie would gladly send you suitable material.
This is a long News Bulletin to make up for the missing February one. I hope I hav published something representative of all your correspondence. If I haven't, then I'd be glad to noe.
NOTE CORRESPONDENCE for STANLEY GIBBS our Secretary, needs to be SENT to ME so that I can forward it to wherever he is living in the next TWO MONTHS.
Yesterday I saw this in a Building Society window:Yours sincerely, Mona Cross (Publicity Office).
"XTRA SAVINGS. XTRA INTEREST. XTRA. XTRA. XTRA.Their spelling is improving isn't it?

I purchased three sets from this Sonore Solid Wood Mid-century Style Dining Chair for my dining room and I am thinking of buying two more for my mother. These chairs look amazing with a great design, and the fabric is also high quality. I adore retro style and these chairs fit perfectly into that category. The chairs are not only beautiful but solid enough to last for a long time.
When I saw these chairs on Overstock, I immediately paused. I was taken by their unique, eye-catching design. I got one set as side chairs but now I�m thinking of replacing my dining chairs with these. They are really comfortable, well-constructed and the walnut color of the wood adds a nice layer of warmth to my home. They arrived well packaged and earlier than expected. Another nice job by Overstock.
I'm very happy with these chairs. They fit perfectly within my kitchen decor. They were easy to assemble, and very stylish.
I have ordered two sets from this Sonore Solid Wood Mid-century Style Dining Chair and I have to say the chairs are amazing. The solid wood matches perfectly with the large oak dining table giving the elegance of classic beauty. The chairs have a great quality and the mid century design gives the charm of this type of furniture. I think I will buy some more sets as they are top quality and affordable.
Ordered a set of two. Arrived quickly and almost assembled. No damage. Well packaged. All you have to do is attach the seat to the frame. Low profile. Happy with how the look. Was going to order six more but inventory too low.
Chairs are beautiful and sturdy. Howeevr the color online is alot dark than the actual product. Just wasnt what I was looking for but seems like a good product otherwise.
I bought 4 of these chairs to use with my antique round dining table in the small space designated for dining in my 1950s ranch home. The black vinyl seat cushions were somewhat thin so I had them reupholstered (and some extra padding added) and they now are very comfortable and look great with the decor in my shared living space. The screws holding the cushions in place continue to fall out (could be from extra padding) so I have left them out. The cushions aren't going anywhere when seated. I only wish the chairs were mid-century quality. But, for the initial price and added investment, overall look good and I don't cringe when my young grandsons put sticky fingers on them. I am consistently pleased with my o.co purchases.
First, I cut myself when pulling them from box on one of the MANY splinters of wood hanging from the bottom. There are places where the supports are underneath where the screw don't come close to meeting the leg, you can see 1/2 inch or so of the screw. Don't think this bodes well for durability. Last, there are screw to screw the seats to the frame, but no holes in the seats. Not sure what to do there. Nothing about these chairs was what I expected.
These chairs are wonderful! But when I received the package, there was a small hole on the side of the box with the end of the back piece of the chair poking through the box. The back of one of the chairs had some paint scuffed off. It wasn't worth sending the entire package (35 lbs!) back so I think I'm going to use some varnish to fix the damage. Other than that, the chairs are great! Just wish the back of the chairs were wrapped a little more securely because it does get jostled in the box during shipping.
Not bad for price. Areas where stain had rubbed off, but not enough to warrant return. Seat bottoms are wood screwed into frame. Stain is more yellow than appears on-line; would describe as more of a teak color as opposed to walnut

I can't say I am much a fan of Mischa Barton's style, but she did look very pretty whilst attending the annual Serpentine Gallery summer party held in Hyde Park, London, on Tuesday evening.
Dressed in a floor-sweeping Luisa Beccaria Spring 2012 gown, I would say this is the best she has looked in a very long while.
Her lightly lemon ruffled frock with a sheer yoke was styled with a shoulder bag, which I wish she'd carried as a clutch, a bold red lip colour, and a chic updo.
As much as I think this is an improvement style-wise, the gown would've looked better for me with the runway belt.
Hit or miss?

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
Sabah is the second largest state in Malaysia, located on the northern tip of Borneo Island and one of Southeast Asia's greatest surprises.
This half-day tour will introduce you to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah's modern state capital with its alluring blend of Malay and Chinese culture. Largely destroyed during World War II, Kota Kinabalu has since developed into one of Malaysia's most exciting cities. Go past the serene City Mosque, followed by a photo stop at the Tun Mustapha Building. A 30-storey circular glass edifice supported by high tensile steel rods, this amazing structure is an architectural and engineering feat, one of only four such buildings in the world.
Continuing on, you will stop at the Sabah State Museum to see the extensive exhibits of Sabah's diverse culture, beliefs and traditions. See the Heritage Village displaying replicas of traditional houses representing the different ethnic communities of Sabah. From here, it's on to the magnificent Masjid Negeri Sabah or State Mosque, with its golden inlay motifs and impressive minaret. After a photo stop here, you will then make your way to your final stop, a brief visit to a local handicraft market where you can mingle with the locals and perhaps pick up a few souvenirs to take home.
Please Note: This tour includes approximately 1-hour of easy walking; however some of it is over uneven surfaces and there are some steps to negotiate. The tour is available to wheelchair guests who have a collapsible wheelchair, are able to make their own way on and off the transportation and have a companion to assist them. Those with mobility concerns are cautioned to evaluate their personal level of stamina and ability. Light-weight cotton slacks and shirts and flat, comfortable walking shoes are suggested. The Museum does not allow cameras or big bags inside the main building. These items must be checked on site. It is a local custom to take off shoes before entering a Heritage Village house so guests are encouraged to wear easy to slip on and off shoes.

MADISON, Wisconsin (WKOW) -- Boxing is back at the University of Wisconsin after a 54 year hiatus.
The sport was banned as a collegiate competition after a fighter died following injuries sustained in a 1960 bout.
However, sophomore Chandler Davis said research in the UW's library led him to discover boxing was never banned as a club sport.
Davis' efforts to get a boxing club established on campus began in his first semester as a student.
Davis, who had boxed during high school in his hometown of Los Angeles, Calif., said he wanted to start a boxing club immediately upon arriving in Madison. He put up fliers advertising the group, and said he received substantial interest.
But because the club, which was registered as a student organization, was not an officially recognized club sport, Davis and its members had to practice at a gym far off campus.
He said that deterred many people from staying involved.
But following more than 18 months of filling out applications and giving presentations to faculty and his peers, Davis earned the club official recognition from the university's recreational sports division in December.
"It was nice to work on building something up," Davis said.
The group now practices at the school's Natatorium. Its first practice was Wednesday evening.
"Just seeing everyone come out is awesome," said the boxing club's marketing officer, Cody Kuchinski.
Faris Alsree, the team's secretary, said boxing is a great workout. But it also teaches him and the 39 other club members who showed up Wednesday about self discipline and commitment.
"It's all about being a strong person," Alsree said. "Those three minute rounds teach you to focus on one thing... That helps me in my life with my studies, my relationships, like with my family."
Now that the club has been established on campus, Davis said its new goal is to hold an exhibition match "within the next few years.
He also said he'd like to see the UW's boxing team eventually compete against boxing clubs from other universities.
"It'll be nice to see how far (other students) take this," Davis said. "To see, after I graduate, how far this goes."

Our aura is an electromagnetic energy field that emanates from our bodies, and can be visualized through an outline of cascading colors, which are supposed to reflect our state of mind, body and inner being, says Jill Templin, owner of The Chakra Shack in Laguna Beach. Templin said these colors are associated with our seven chakras, or energy centers of the body, and determine our physical, emotional and spiritual states. ?An aura reading can help us learn how to balance our chakra system, by highlighting which areas we need to strengthen,?
Thurston fundraiser was Epic

With the lights dimmed as they sit barefoot on mats, students at Thurston Middle School are usually quiet and contemplative as they practice yoga during physical education class. This week, however, was quite different as students screamed and cheered loudly while competing in the school's fourth annual Epic Challenge. Nearly 800 students raced each other and raised money by finding sponsors as they competed in a weeklong event of physical activities. The Epic Challenge is the Laguna Beach school's biggest fundraising event of the year and aims to promote a healthy environment, bodies, minds and kids.

At first glance, the grand house sits like a beacon above Abalone Point, high above Crystal Cove, at the north entrance to Laguna Beach. But then you see the graffiti. The house is, according to the California Coastal Commission, "among the most visually prominent sites along the Orange County coastline. " And for a long time over the past year, tourists were able to see "The Clash" spray painted in vintage punk-rock style. So was the house the victim of another financial flame-out?

When Sydney Haik takes the stage to sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Main Beach on Saturday, she may not look like a veteran performer. But, of course, appearances can deceive. Sydney, who will turn 8 in October, is the youngest performer at this year's Fête de la Musique, an event hosted every year by the Laguna Beach Sister Cities Assn. She'll help open the festivities by singing the national anthem at 1 p.m. Stage nerves probably won't be a problem - the San Juan Capistrano resident has already appeared in "Annie," "Seussical" and other youth-theater productions.

He also has cerebral palsy and suffers from seizures. Yet, he wants children to know that there is always hope. That?s the idea behind the event that Koning, 22, said he?s put together on Monday. The Laguna Beach High volleyball team manager has set up a ?Changing Children?s Lives? event at the Los Angeles Clippers game that day. The Clippers play the New Jersey Nets at 12:30 p.m., which happens to be Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Thanks to Koning?
Auri ditches shoes for licensing
By Joanna Clay
September 6, 2012
Auri Inc., an upscale shoemaker once touted as one of America's most promising companies by Forbes, has shuttered its line of shoes to focus on licensing its technology to established luxury footwear brands. The company closed its North Laguna showroom and headquarters earlier this year as part of the move. "The costs associated with being a footwear brand are exorbitant," said founder Ori Rosenbaum. "It's overwhelming. " Rosenbaum, a Laguna Beach resident, cited the high costs associated with trade shows, samples, marketing materials, factories, inventory and being a public company.

By Jonathan Oyama
April 29, 2010
An Orange County jury has awarded a father $1.2 million in damages in a lawsuit against a landlord for neglecting the repair of a mold-infested house in Laguna Beach. Patrick Fetzer accused the lease owner of neglecting to eliminate the water intrusion in the home. According to Fetzer's attorneys, the elevated moisture and water intrusion in the home caused mold to spread throughout the home at 255 Center St. According to the lawsuit, the mold caused Fetzer's daughter, Lauren, to develop severe respiratory problems from 2006 to 2008.
