Lions TE Casey FitzSimmons retired on Wednesday after suffering several concussions during his seven-year NFL career, including one in December that is still causing problems.
"This has been a very difficult decision. I feel like 2009 was one of the best seasons of my career, because I was so consistent and was able to contribute in a variety of ways. If it wasn't for the concussions, I would not be retiring," FitzSimmons said in a statement released by his agent, Daniel Hoeven.
The concussion that ultimately shelved FitzSimmons occurred on Dec. 6 against the Bengals. He missed the final four games of the 2009 season on injured reserve and was advised by Lions team doctors to retire.
FitzSimmons, 29, entered the NFL in 2003 as an undrafted free agent and went on to play in 99 games in the NFL. He tallied 88 catches for 677 yards and five touchdowns in his career, including 18-128-0 in '09.
"Casey is a guy who played the game the way it's supposed to be played," Lions head coach Jim Schwartz said in a statement released by the team. "He was considered an underdog by many, but never by his coaches. He was a guy you could always count on."

BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) ---The Bangor Police Departmentsays bus commuters in the city have been expressing concerns about their safety while getting off of Community Connector buses.
PHOTOS: Storm related accidents...drive safely
The police department says it hasbeen receiving complaints about people driving too fast while the Community Connector buses are making stops. Many riders say that's especially nerve wracking while they aretrying to cross busier streets like Union Street in Bangoror spots where there is no traffic signal.
City officials say they want to remind drivers to take it slow when passing a bus that's dropping people off. Unlike a school bus you don't need to come to a complete stop. Still they say that's no reason to act careless.
"I also think just the motorists being taught how to go around us or how to stay behind us...which they shouldn't do..they should go around us," said Laurie Linscott with 'Community Connector, "just more education is what people need."
Bus riders are also being reminded to practice safety. Officials say when you get off a bus you should always wait for it to clear the area before crossing the street. They also say you shouldn't walk in front of the bus as the driver might not be able to see you.

LAWTON, Okla_A stand-off between Lawton Police and an armed, suicidal woman ended tragically Thursday afternoon.
30 year old Lauren Haskins had a gun and was threatening to take her own life when police showed up to her house to check in on her.
After attempting to negotiate peacefully with her in her back yard, officers felt they were left with no other option than to fire at Haskins while her husband and two children were inside the home.
It had been a routinely calm day around the neighborhood, but neighbors said things went from calm to chaotic in a matter of minutes.
"We actually just checked the mail, there was no one, came inside and two minutes later there were sirens everywhere, " said neighbor Brandi Stringer.
Brandi Stringer was at home when police showed up to Lauren Haskins' residence while she was threatening to take her own life.
"My mom said there's cops everywhere come out. There's an onslaught of cops, there's an ambulance, couple under covers, a lot of cops running around the building, guns drawn, just running back and forth, " said Stringer.
Police came to check on Haskins after receiving a call from someone concerned about her well-being. They were able to determine she was armed, and after attempting to negotiate with Haskins to put down her gun, officers felt it necessary to fire.
Brandi stringer heard the shots from her house.
"Shots were fired, and a couple seconds later they had tape up and wheeling the body out, " Stringer said.
Haskins was taken to Comanche County Memorial Hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Stringer and other neighbors never would have suspected something like this would unfold at the Haskins' residence. They said they were quiet and kept to themselves.
"They've only recently moved in so I don't know the people too well, " said Stringer.
Haskins' husband and two children were also at the home at the time of the shooting.
No one's sure what could have caused such a tragic end to a day that started out so peacefully.
OSBI Has launched an investigation. At this time they are gathering information to determine exactly how many officers fired shots and if the officers who did so were justified.

Gering's Mike Smith honored
Gering High School's Mike Smith has been selected as the Official of the year by the Western Nebraska Wrestling Officials Association.
Smith, a math instructor at GHS, will retire from teaching and coaching at the end of this school year but says he will continue to officiate.
Smith, a Gering High School graduate, began his teaching and coaching career in 1970 at Mitchell. He has been at Gering since 1975.
He got his first taste of officiating in 1970 when Mitchell had a dual with Banner County and the scheduled official didn't show up. He got a second opportunity to fill-in at a Torrington-Bridgeport dual and he has been officiating ever since.
He was the Nebraska Wrestling Official of the Year in 1991 and is a member of the Nebraska Wrestling Hall of Fame.
Smith, who wrestled for Nebraska in for a while in college and graduated from Chadron State, will be honored at a banquet in Kearney March 23.

Sad as it is, I actually can imagine Mosley winning this fight. I hope it stops with imagination.
I know that what he did against Alvarez was close to nothing but Malignaggi is small WW and doesn't have the power to Ko someone - which is the best way of sparing the audience of yet another most boring fight of the year candidate.. Mosley has got a good chin on him anyways so I wouldn't be worried about that even against a bigger puncher. If Shane doesn't bring at least 1% of that beast he once was, we are in for a boring, shell-shocked, bro hugging performance.
Paulie's main weapons should be his jab and craftyness that he brings to the table. Footwork and good ring generalship should serve him well too. Good thing Paulie can take a punch as well.
The chances are slim for Shane, but...what IF ??!!
All bs aside, this is a terrible matchup. If a non-deserving Mosley really wins and gets a title...ima hang myself.
Your thoughts?

DENVER -- Left-hander Drew Pomeranz threw a second straight scoreless outing for Triple-A Colorado Springs on Friday night.
But much to the chagrin of Pacific Coast League hitters, and probably to the disappointment of fans wanting a reason to feel good as the Rockies continue to struggle, manager Jim Tracy said Pomeranz needs more time.
Pomeranz, 23, who was 0-2 with a 4.70 ERA before the Rockies sent him down, held New Orleans scoreless in 5 2/3 innings, with three hits, four strikeouts and a walk in Friday's 4-2 Sky Sox victory. He blanked Memphis for six innings in his previous start.
But Pomeranz, the key to last year's Ubaldo Jimenez trade with the Indians, is not being measured by stats in Pacific Coast League games. The Rockies wanted Pomeranz at a higher arm slot, with the belief it will improve the power on his fastball and help him command his curve so that he can throw it for strikes.
"It's more of my hand on top, not on the side of the ball," Pomeranz told Brian Gomez of the Colorado Springs Gazette.
Pomeranz's 91 pitches in 5 2/3 represented not quite the efficiency that the Rockies would like. Some of the pitchers were left in locations that would not have worked against Major League hitters -- others that hitters chased would be ignored in the Majors.
"I'm not surprised he's pitching good in Triple-A -- throwing scoreless innings and giving up just a couple of hits," Tracy said. "But we're trying to make him a little bit better than good. We just don't want him here at the big-league level trying to survive or just making a little contribution. We view this guy as someone that can be a dominant force at the front end of the rotation.
"You need to develop the consistent arm slot and the consistent feel for the pitch. So you know when you've got a first-ball hacker that sees a breaking ball and quits on it, you can just toss it in there for a strike. He's not doing that consistently enough. He has a couple of other things in relation to his delivery that he needs to get a little bit better. He's going to get people out. But rather than get some of them out, we want him to get all of them out."
De La Rosa frustrated by setback
DENVER -- The left forearm tightness that Rockies pitcher Jorge De La Rosa has experienced while working his way back from elbow surgery has led the team to halt his rehab assignment, the team announced Saturday.
Technically, the Rockies recalled De La Rosa from his 30-day rehab assignment, which would have expired on May 27 and would have had him targeted to start in the Manors against the Dodgers on June 2. De La Rosa is frozen for seven days, then can be placed on the DL for forearm tightness and begin a new 30-day window.
De La Rosa was 5-2 with a 3.51 ERA when he underwent Tommy John surgery a year ago. In an odd pattern, De La Rosa experienced no tightness when he began throwing during extended spring training at the team's complex in Scottsdale, Ariz., and was fine during two rehab starts at Class A Modesto. But De La Rosa's first start at Double-A Tulsa on May 12 limited him to one inning. He threw four innings Thursday and experienced tightness at the end.
A frustrated De La Rosa angrily threw his T-shirt at the end of a workout Saturday at Coors Field, but calmed down and said he understood.
"It's very disappointing," said De La Rosa, who would have started at Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday. "I pitched good last time, but I felt a little tightness. They want me to pitch more time in the Minors. I have to do whatever they want.
"I want to be here, but like they say, I need more time. I have to pitch more, build more pitches, to be ready to be here. They want to make sure everything is OK. It hasn't been a year since I had the surgery. They know how hard it is."
Had De La Rosa made the June 2 target date, he would have been back a day short of the anniversary of last year's surgery. But rarely does a comeback from Tommy John surgery go so smoothly.
"I still don't think that this is any big thing," Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. "It's just another avenue in the road that you have to go down as you're recuperating."
Going into the season, the Rockies were hoping for solid work from a relatively young rotation that would get a lift from De La Rosa's return. Jeremy Guthrie, a veteran added during the winter, missed three starts in April and May with a shoulder injury. Jhoulys Chacin, expected to make major strides, tried to pitch through shoulder tightness, performed badly and hasn't pitched in a game since May 1. Now on the disabled list, Chacin isn't throwing because he needs to strengthen his shoulder.
For the Rockies to turn the corner after their 15-23 start going into Saturday's game with the Mariners, much of the responsibility falls to three young pitchers -- second-year righty Juan Nicasio and two rookies, righty Alex White and lefty Christian Friedrich, who started Saturday's contest. Guthrie and lefty Jamie Moyer are the staff's veterans.
Fowler regaining hold on center field job
DENVER -- It appears Dexter Fowler has regained a grip on the Rockies' center field position after seemingly losing it.
The mercurial Fowler has reached base in six of his last seven games. Going into Saturday afternoon's game against the Mariners, he was 4-for-7 through three games of the current homestand.
The last two seasons, Fowler endured demotions to Triple-A Colorado Springs before returning for strong second halves.
This season, the Rockies didn't send him down, but did begin shifting playing time to Tyler Colvin a little more than a week ago. Fowler had enough poor at-bats and enough sloppy plays in the field that he became a lightning rod for criticism during the team's disappointing start to the season.
But with other players needing rest, Colvin played left field and first base and Fowler received a new chance. Fowler's average went from .219 to .243 and his on-base percentage went from .406 to .466 through three games of the homestand.
"A lot of people lost confidence in me, but I never lost confidence in myself," Fowler said Saturday. "I don't think anybody in the organization lost faith in me, or I probably wouldn't be here. But everybody else made it a much bigger deal than it needed to be in my head. God's given me some talents, and it's about utilizing those."
Offensively, the leg kick that brought the switch-hitting Fowler's swing to a new level last year became an issue this year. He added it during last season. He could adjust it depending on how he felt or what he needed during a particular at-bat. It's an added moving part that's difficult to control.
"I had been playing, so my timing was there," Fowler said. "Coming back this year, it was actually like starting from scratch. So I had to learn to just simplify it."
As long as veterans such as Michael Cuddyer and Todd Helton need days off -- Helton was off Saturday, and Cuddyer moved from right field to first base to preserve his legs -- Colvin still will get the playing time he has earned. Colvin entered Saturday hitting .315 with three home runs and 11 RBIs, first with part-time duty and now in the daily lineup.
"[Fowler] definitely has opened the door," Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. "What has worked out very well for us, too, is it's not a matter of him creating opportunity for himself and as a result I have to slide Tyler Colvin to the back burner. Because of the day game after night game today and the effectiveness that I've seen Tyler Colvin have against right- and left-handed pitching, I have the opportunity to slide him right back in there.
"So they're both playing."
Tracy said he also can give left fielder Carlos Gonzalez, who went into Saturday 3-for-13 during the homestand, a day off and play Colvin in his stead.

Jamaal Charles / RB / Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs sent the Broncos, who entered Sunday with a slim chance at a postseason berth, home with a shell-shocked feeling, and Charles played a big role in Kansas City's rout. Charles ran for a franchise-record 259 yards on 25 carries, scoring on TD runs of five and 56 yards. The 56-yarder blew the game open with 6:25 to play, as the Chiefs pulled ahead by 20 points. He came within 37 yards of matching the record for rushing yards in a game but sat out Kansas City's final possession. "I could have (gone) back into the game, but I just went up to the coach (and said) I'm satisfied right now. I'll get (the record) some other time," Charles told reporters.
Derrick Johnson / LB / Kansas City Chiefs
After fading into the background for much of the year, Johnson, the one-time defensive star, returned to prominence in Week 17. Against a Broncos' offense that was without Pro Bowl WR Brandon Marshall, Johnson picked off two Kyle Orton passes and returned both of them for touchdowns. The first came in the third quarter. Orton threw a deep pass, but Johnson reeled it in and took it back 45 yards. He made his second pick-six in the fourth quarter on a 60-yard return, giving Kansas City a 37-24 lead. He finished with six tackles and four pass break-ups. Johnson only started three games this season after starting at least 12 in each of his first four years, but he made a career-high three picks in the 2009 campaign.
Tim Shaw / LB / Chicago Bears
Shaw has been a force on special teams all season, and he may have saved his best performance for last. The 25-year-old linebacker chased down returners all day and made five special-teams tackles in the Bears' win over the Lions. He also pried the ball loose from Detroit's Derrick Williams on one fourth-quarter kickoff return and recovered the fumble, giving Chicago great field position at the Lions' 24-yard line. The turnover led to a 34-yard field goal by Robbie Gould, giving the Bears a 37-23 lead that would stand through the rest of the game. The only person Shaw did allow to run the length of the field was a fan who leaped over the railing in the first quarter before being escorted away.

President Vladimir Putin's decision to head United Russia's federal ticket means that the results of the upcoming elections are now a foregone conclusion.
A prominent opposition spokesman recently wrote an excellent article proving that the results of the December State Duma elections would be falsified and that the exact number of votes each party will receive had been predetermined. The article also included a list of the parties and the predicted percentage results for each. Out of an old habit dating back to my school days, I decided to tally up the figures. The total was 112 percent.
The problem is not that the author of the article, who is an economist, had trouble with basic math; he simply received too much information. Before writing the article, he must have got his information from members of the Duma and was able to determine the conditions of the agreements between the candidates and the Kremlin.
Such an agreement was probably struck, and a promise to manipulate the election results might have been made, but the real question is whether that promise will be fulfilled. I believe that officials will not tamper with the votes — not because they are so honest at heart, but because they probably won't have the opportunity or even the need to do so.
According to an electronic vote-monitoring system called Fairgame, the elections results in 2003 were tweaked to benefit United Russia. If this is true, then the scheme employed by United Russia to pad its percentages was nothing short of genius. This is the way the scheme worked: If a tiny party garnered, say, 0.9 percent of the vote, it was officially granted 0.5 percent. The difference, a negligible and virtually unnoticeable number, was added to United Russia's tally. Since there were a lot of these small parties, United Russia was able to scrap together up to 7 percent more votes. This strengthened the party's position, but it did not radically change the overall picture.
This arrangement may explain why, after many viable parties were barred from the 2007 elections for not meeting the strict threshold of 50,000 members, a few marginal groups were nevertheless allowed to run, despite claiming memberships in the hundreds at best.
But the political landscape has changed so much since 2003 that such manipulations are no longer necessary. With President Vladimir Putin's decision to head United Russia's federal ticket, the results of the upcoming elections are now a foregone conclusion. Moreover, many voters who are dissatisfied with the current leadership will not participate in the elections because they understand that they are meaningless. Thus, padding United Russia's figures doesn't make a lot of sense, as the party will do well in the elections anyway. What's more, since the new law does not require that a minimum number of votes be cast, there is also no need to overstate the voter turnout.
At issue is not how well the party of power will fare, but if any other party will manage to clear the 7 percent hurdle needed to win Duma seats. For Russia to preserve even a semblance of democracy, it is important to have some opposition parties in the Duma. Happily, there is a solution: The conservative electorate supporting the Communist Party promises to turn out in adequate numbers to ensure that its candidates win their coveted Duma seats.
As for the others parties, their leaders dream of earning at least 3 percent of the vote in order to return the campaign money they've already spent. Election officials are undoubtedly reassuring them and promising to help, but in the end they won't lift a finger. No bureaucrat will come to their aid by falsifying the results because it is difficult to properly disguise. It is much easier to count the votes in an honest fashion.
In the end, since Russia now has a de facto one-party system, it is not necessary at all to falsify election results.

Individuals who are in need of completing a Medication Aide Competency Assessment prior to taking the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services Medication Aide written examination may do so at Clarkson College.
Please contact the Professional Development office for upcoming dates.
The individual has previously been on the Nebraska Medication Aide Registry. Clarkson College will verify registry status as inactive or lapsed. A photo ID is required at time of examinations.
For the assessment, 45 minutes is scheduled individually with a Registered Nurse. Students are verbally asked 20 questions to successfully demonstrate each of the competencies as identified in Title 172 NAC 96, section 005. Students must also successfully demonstrate 10 basic nursing skills related to medication administration. Students are given 5 minutes to review all 10 skills prior to testing.
Students must successfully pass each skill—70 percent required to pass each skill. Some skills may have critical steps that must be demonstrated to pass the skill. If a critical step is not demonstrated accurately, the student does not pass the skill and therefore does not pass the medication aide competency.
Preregistration is required. Walk-ins cannot be accommodated. The following registration options are available:
Phone: Register by phone with a credit card by calling 402.552.6148, 402.552.2311 or 800.647.5500.

Differential Effects of Thimerosal on Cell Division and Apoptosis in Normal vs Autism Spectrum Disorder Cell Lines
Baskin, David
The Methodist Hospital Research Institute
1 year
United States
This study will investigate the effects of a dose-dependent exposure of thimerosal on cell proliferation. First, thimerosal will be exposed to immortalized lymphocyte cell lines from autistic and non-autistic individuals as part of the AGRE collection, as well as human B cells. Both cell number and apoptosis will be examined before and after treatment. These results will be used to examine changes in cell proliferation (cell number) on an individual level with symptoms of autism including severity of disease, recovery, intestinal symptoms, immune function, and vaccination history. Finally, the RNA will be extracted from the lymphocytes and a whole genome array will be conducted on those lymphocytes with the largest change in cell proliferation, as well as five unaffected siblings. The investigators anticipate that cell proliferation will be a more sensitive measure than apoptosis in detecting differences in susceptibility to mercury exposure in lymphocytes from autistic and non-autistic individuals. The results of this research will facilitate advances in the understanding of the cause of autism. What this means for people with autism: This study will use the existing AGRE resource to examine if more sensitive endpoints are possible to determine the effects of environmental toxicants on cellular function. By doing so, it will facilitate knowledge into the understanding of the causes of autism.

Ten years ago today, I founded the site that'd later become Raw Charge. This post is simply marking the occasion.
The Lightning name the franchise's tenth captain in team history, who succeeds departed center Vincent Lecavalier.
While the argument's been made why the Lightning could opt to continue their youth movement when they name their next team captain, can they really overlook a experience leader like Marty St. Louis?
The world moves on and while we cling to warm memories for comfort, we cannot be lost in them, or our expectations on the present diminishes.

Hello Guys,
I am very new to SUPL and I am creating a tool to test supl servers.
I couldn't figure out from the SUPL specs, how do I know from a received SUPL message, whether it's a SUPL INIT or START or any other message. For example in diameter there was a particular field called command-code which was a mandatory parameter and was different for each message. In SUPL which field in the message should I parse to know which message is it ?
I know it's a basic Qn , but could any one help please .
I am not using any ASN compilers and decoding myself.

Can a low-income neighborhood become more livable — without gentrification?
09.28.10 - 3:23 pm | Caitlin Donohue |
Lack of development in the neighborhood has left the Tenderloin one of the city's best-preserved historic areasPHOTO BY BEN HOPFER
If Shaw is correct, it will indeed be a first. Many cities have attempted to transform low income areas with arts districts — and the end result has typically been the displacement of the poorer residents. Coalition on Homelessness director Jennifer Friedenbach described the process: "Gentrification follows a very specific path. First come police sweeps, then the arts, then the displacement. That's the path that we're seeing. Hopefully we'll be able to avoid the displacement part," she says.
It'd be great if the Tenderloin took the road less traveled — but will it?
Shaw's best-case scenario seems unlikely, according to Chester Hartman, a renowned urban planning scholar and author of the numerous studies of San Francisco history and the activist handbook Displacement: How to Fight It (National Housing Law Project 1982). Hartman doubts the Tenderloin will remain a housing option for the city's poor, given its central location and market trends. "The question is, what proportion will move and what will stay?" he said in a phone interview.
Earlier this summer, the National Endowment of the Arts awarded the SF Arts Commission $250,000 toward an arts-based "revitalization of the mid-Market neighborhood." The area, which is adjacent to the Tenderloin, is considered by many to be the more outwardly visible face of the TL. In truth, the two neighborhoods share many of the same issues and public characteristics, including high density living and prominent issues with drugs.
Amy Cohen, Mayor Gavin Newsom's director of neighborhood business development, said the Newsom administration is using the money "to implement arts programming that would have an immediate impact on the street. These activities would then build momentum for the longer-term projects." At this point, plans for that "immediate impact" have started with the installation of lights on Market Street between Sixth and Eighth streets. Two other projects are also in effect: a city-sponsored weekly arts market on United Nations Plaza and an al fresco public concert series.
It's hard to distinguish these moves from a general trend toward rebranding the image of the Tenderloin. These streets have already seen Newsom announce a historic preservation initiative that put $15,000 worth of commemorative plaques on buildings; it was also announced they would be added to the National Register of Historic Places, a move that allows property owners deep tax cuts for building renovations.
Cohen said her office has spent time trying to attract a supermarket (something the neighborhood, although flush with corner stores, currently lacks), but efforts seem to be faltering. "Grocery store operators and other retailers perceive that the area is unsafe and have expressed concerns about the safety of their employees and customers," Cohen said. "The arts strategy makes sense because it builds on the assets that are there. Cultivating the performing and visual arts uses that are already succeeding will ultimately enhance the neighborhood's ability to attract restaurants, retail, and needed services like grocery stores."
These days, many of the small businesses in the area have window signs hyping "Uptown Tenderloin: Walk, Dine, Enjoy" over graphics of jazzy, people-free high-rises. Looking skyward, one observes the recent deployment of tidy street banners funded by the North of Market/Tenderloin Community Benefit District that pay homage to the number of untouched historic buildings in the neighborhood. The banners read "409 historic buildings in 33 blocks. Yeah, we're proud."
Only one TL resident appears to be sourced for this piece?
Perhaps if the residents of the TL were allowed self determination over their neighborhood instead of being objects for the out of neighborhood nonprofiteers' enterprises, then proposals for the TL might reflect TL residents' aspirations?
Seriously, the TL has astronomical rates of un and underemployment, yet few if any of the nonprofit workforce live in the TL. Many commute in from the East Bay where it is less expensive to live. How about as an economic development strategy, the City mandates that 4/5 of the nonprofit workforce that receives City funding make the sacrifices to stay in the City?
Randy Shaw is the poster scamster for the problem. Shaw lives in a six room mansion in the Oakland hills. His salary has doubled to $140K over the past decade while the subsidies received by TL residents have remained flat or fallen. Shaw's portfolio is not limited to storefronts and master lease SRO operations. The Tenderloin Housing Clinic also operates beyondchron, employing another non TL resident as shin kicker for Shaw by publishing a blog that is designed to reward supporters and punish opponents, all to bring in more money to the THC.
The main reason why the TL is mired in disgustingness is because the job opportunities for commuter nonprofiteers would dry up were the problems solved. Job one of the white liberals is to monopolize positions of relative power in that low income queer community of color.

Sammy Soun, Rick Darnell, his colleagues at NOM-CBD, and other sources I didn't directly quote, but interviewed for this piece like Elvin Padilla and Kai Wilson, president of the Tenderloin Neighborhood Association are all residents of the neighborhood and all contributed information for the article.
"Mired in disgustingness" is an interesting response to the story that's told in the article, which talks about a lot of positive stuff going on in the neighborhood.
I think it's probably attitudes like that that keep SF residents from other parts of the city out until flashy, big budget projects are built to tell them it's okay to venture into the TL.

Or maybe it's the filth, public defecation, panhandling, open-air drug use and screaming mentally ill wandering the streets that I see everytime I'm in the Tenderloin.
Posted by JR on Sep. 29, 2010 @ 4:13 pm
I believe this idea that a neighborhood can be shaped to ones own designs is completely misguided. What Randy doesn't say is that all this rich history he's so proud of was not created during the current reign of non-profits controlling development in the TL. It once was a place that played host to a wide variety of entertainment, businesses, and yes... vice. It was a time when SRO's played a valuable part in housing what was once a very diverse transient population. Shipyard workers, musicians, entertainers, and roustabouts of all types once contributed to the vibrancy of this neighborhood.
Take a walk around Taylor, Eddy, and Turk and you'll notice that storefronts that once housed viable businesses are either boarded-up or have become offices for non-profits. Randy's own organization was involved in the eviction of long-time business (McDonald's Books) from a space on Turk Street in order to make way for his own storefront office where he keeps the blinds drawn 24 hours a day.

Caitlin, we have two lower income communities, SoMa and the TL that are separated by Market Street. Corporate SF wants to permanently divide these two communities with an "arts district" so as to conquer them.
The commuter nonprofiteers see disgustingness as an affordability strategy in the TL just as the commuter nonprofiteers see disgustingness as an affordablity strategy here in the Mission.
Residents of the Mission and the TL do not like plodding through human shit, piss and trash, seeing crumbling human lives splayed out on the streets and sidewalks (not to be construed as supporting Prop L which I oppose vigorously) as we go about our lives. And I'd wager that the only reason why some of the business supported "beautification" proposals have legs is because the progressive nonprofits have adopted no compelling alternative. We can't fight something with either nothing or more of the same failed policies.
District Six in general and the TL in particular host the lions' share of nonprofits and takes in the lion's share of city funding for nonprofits. Most all of the workers in these agencies are commuters from elsewhere. Yet our district has astronomical levels of under and unemployment.
If it is okay to suggest that cops and firefighters live in the City, then it is okay to suggest that nonprofiteers live in the City and more importantly, because nonprofits tend to be designated stakeholders before City agencies, in the communities they are empowered to speak for.
A real economic development strategy would be one of self determination where district residents with roots in the community take those jobs from commuters, so that the political agendas for our communities are organic and native. The TL and Mission would do well to capture those nonprofit public dollars into the local neighborhood economy.
A real political development strategy would be one of self determination as well. There are reasons why residents are consistently marginalized in San Francisco's low income communities. And the outcomes of such an approach leave much to be desired. Perhaps you really believe that Oakland Hills mansion dweller Randy Shaw or a well off condo owner like Puffington Ho-Garth speak accurately for the TL?
I'm sure that we can count on Tim and Bruce to give gentrifiers some op-ed space following Adachi and Illig to present their side of the story to Guardian readers. Fair and balanced, you know the drill. Anything but listening to the people directly impacted by these policies.
Posted by marcos on Sep. 29, 2010 @ 8:41 am
You'll find our central thesis is actually that Randy does not speak for the TL on these issues, and CERTAINLY not condo owners. Our premise is that proposed changes might actually push out the low income residents there now, and that "developments" need to be residents-based and driven to make them beneficial for the TL community.
Posted by caitlin on Sep. 29, 2010 @ 8:54 am
Caitlin, there are reasons why the TL finds itself in its current predicament. The nonprofiteers lost the Mission as it was rezoned.
There is no indication that the nonprofits which currently hold the cards and represent the neighborhood are going to see any sort of different outcomes in the TL.
Developments cannot be resident based until the political calculus of the Tenderloin is determined by residents. Otherwise, we've seen this time and again, the price point of the nonprofits will be identified and met, the community will be sold out again, and we'll fall further behind.
As it stands, we see nonprofiteers fail upwards like Carly Fiorina the way that Randy Shaw's salary has doubled, the way that Eric Quezada has fallen upwards into positions of increasing responsibility after blowing Eastern Neighborhoods, and we will see Tim Redmond wringing his hands about how bad it all is but that it is all we've got so we're going to grudgingly support it.
Seen this movie several times before, didn't like the endings. Let's have the residents write a new one!
Posted by marcos on Sep. 29, 2010 @ 9:44 am
when are you going to stop talking about the buildings and start talking about the people that Randy Shaw houses?
because no amount of window dressing is going to hide the blight, caused by people, not buildings
Posted by jeff on Sep. 29, 2010 @ 10:05 am
Jeff is correct that the THC warehouses those who need in depth services. But those services are minimal yet are used as political chits to keep Newsom's power base happy. Nonprofits provide a very small percentage of all services needed, but are so dependent upon city contracts that they will sell out possibilities for increasing the slice of the pie for services just so they can keep on providing theirs. This means no net increase in services while problems continue to mount.
THC is part of Newsom's power base in the TL as Jeff correctly notes, as the THC reaps the benefits of Care Not Cash.
But the human blight is being preserved in the Tenderloin by paternalistic nonprofits that have no interest in solving problems, and by the SFPD which contains the poor in a crescent running from the TL, through SoMa and into the North Mission.
Most residents of the TL are sane, functionally sober and housed. Yet the nonprofiteers look nothing like the TL residents. One activist with a housing nonprofit actually responded to my critiques with the question "if we don't have nonprofits, then how will activists find jobs?"
This self centeredness and economic conflict of interest is what is keeping the crescent as a refuge for the City's problems, keeping funding for social services static and keeping professional activists unaccountable and employed.

To Marcos: feelin your comments, and would love to have you over for tea and conversation at the Faithful Fools, a community center where I live (yeah, live! ;) and work in the TL (234 Hyde). If you're interested, we've got a little no-on-L action planned for October that we'd love to have more folks join. Call us at 415-474-0508 and ask for Katie! :)

The media continues to feed the community the bs about Randy Shaw visions for the TL, who lives in the Berkeley Hills, close to Scenic St. Please! Please let's hear from the people who live in the Tenderloin.
Posted by Guest Robert on Sep. 30, 2010 @ 11:11 am
I have to strongly agree with the many previous posters who called a hard foul on Randy Shaw. He does not legitimately speak in any sense for the Tenderloin.
But -far- worse, he recently wrote in an editorial in his pet online paper BeyondChron.org that the decision the Board of Supervisors made to support the Candlestick Hunters Point Shipyard Redevelopment project with the criminal Miami based developer Lennar corporation was.. courageous...
That decision was a travesty and will likely result in hundreds of people dying of cancer, mesothelioma, and asthma over the next century.
The only reason that a supposed 'liberal' like Shaw would support such a vile outcome is that it means big developer dollars from Lennar will go to nonprofits like his own and ACORN (now ACCE) and the SF Labor Council, the latter two of which brokered the Hunters Point travesty moving forward.

Shaw is Newsom's bitch.
When Newsom says jump, Randy will or else Newsom will eliminate the Master Lease Program. Problem solved!

Federal authorities should be called in to investigate exactly what is going on in the tenderloin. My suspicion is that there is massive collusion, fraud, and civil rights violations occurring in this district. My background: SF native, economist by degree, currently living in the tendernob, employed as a federal contractor (DHHS).
No one finds it odd that we just went through the largest property bubble in the history of the modern western world (not an exaggeration), in a city at the forefront of obscene housing pricing (again, not an exaggeration), and a non-profit is able to become the largest owner of residential buildings in the district?
The problems here are many but the cause is singular: SROs are being used to warehouse those deemed untouchable by the city's politicians. Everyone always references those SRO's filled with the elderly and hardworking/earnest folks who are down one their luck and working to better their lives. I have nothing admiration for them and those helping them; but, these building are the minority.
The typical SROs are not referenced by the feel-good articles of the day. These are the SROs that house the crack-heads who sell drugs directly out of their windows or the chronic drunks who are belligerent by 8 am and use their subsidized room as a home base for all day drinking binges. Where are the articles about how the corner stores in this district all receive payoff money from drug dealers so that they can use their stores as hideoutes when the police arrive and use their registers as change order machines, how some have scanners to help give head's up so that people can change their description as the 911 calls are being radioed out to the police, how all the homeless here have 'credit' accounts with the corner stores to exchange food-stamps for alcohol and cash. How police are on a first name basis with the regular vagrants who are responsible for 90% of the noise (deranged yelling) for each block but don't do anything because all their arrests are thrown out or not pursued. How 'non-profits' receive government section 8 subsidies while maintaining roach motels and drug dens. How Sunset Scavenger has received a waiver somehow so that they can collect regular garbage at 10pm (we're talking the huge garbage bins that require a truck to empty and make an enormous amout of sound) and then come again to pickup recycling at 630am (again, extremely noisy)...EVERYDAY...so that residents are constantly running on ~5/6 hours of sleep. How there are 500+ units of housing with 4 corner stores on every block--yet still not classified as a residential neighborhood.
If gentrification is defined as an influx of those with higher standards and higher income potential, then I am all for it. There is no way to improve an area dominated by drug dealers, addicts, and the mentally unstable without bringing in 'normal' people. The 'non-profits' are in name only--they are actually part of the problem and serve to maintain the status quo. That guy's been 'working on' (not living in) the Tenderloin for 30 years and has amassed a portfolio of buildings and a 6 figure salary....non-profit my ass. That guy has a business model and it seems to be working well for his finances.
As a native of this city I have been forced to realize that the liberal vs conservative dynamic is a false choice. This is the only rational choice left after seeing countless well-meaning but misguided people come to this city to try and change the world only to realize that they're trying to reinvent the wheel. After 30 years - it's time to try something else. Instead of creating a district where people HAVE to live here (subsidized SROs) why not try opening up the district to people who WANT to live here (aka - start selling the properties individually--to exclude developers--to people who live and work in the city).

Leftie nonprofiteers believe that anyone better off than abject poor is rich and will gentrify. Their concern is not ill placed, just too rigid. How do we make space for working people amidst lower income communities in a way that prevents displacement?
There is no nonprofit percentage in answering that question, so we can count on the nonprofiteers to revert to their "four legs good, two legs bad" chants.
Posted by marcos on Oct. 01, 2010 @ 10:24 am
The most disgusting place in SF is the Tenderloin. Why don't you vote for a supervisor who will make a change for the better because jane Kim isn't doing anything and Chris Daley was terrible too

Gobble is the hand/fist crack in between Ragger Bagger and Steppenwolf, just left of a bolted route. This is a great climb that I generally do any time I am at Turkey. Sustained jamming, mostly hand and fist, but you can put gear anywhere you want. This climb and Steppenwolf are my favorites on Turkey Perch.
#1-#3.5 Camalots or equivalent, extras in hand to fist size useful. The crack takes great pro all the way up. Larger piece can be used near the top, also.
