As your taxpayer advocate and elected member of the California State Board of Equalization, I'm fighting to protect your rights and bring about fair tax policies that help grow our economy and jobs. As always, I welcome your ideas about how we can work together to solve the problems facing our state.- GEORGE RUNNER
Fire Fee Bills Delayed and HJTA Lawsuit Received by State
There have been two major developments with the Fire Fee in the last month: the state officially received the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association lawsuit challenging the fire fee and Cal Fire requested that the Board of Equalization delay the billing of this year's bills.
On March 12th, the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association formally served the State Board of Equalization, Department of Forestry and Fire Protection and Department of Justice with their class action lawsuit. The lawsuit, filed late last year, challenges the constitutionality of the fire fee.
Days later, the Mountain Democrat reported that a recent Cal Fire investigation found "errors and inconsistencies" in State Responsibility Area (SRA) boundaries. Among its findings, the review identified more than 1,300 parcels in El Dorado Hills that don't belong in the SRA.
Because the state shouldn't be knowingly sending tax bills to anyone who doesn't actually owe the money, I wrote a letter to Cal Fire requesting a delay in the 2012-13 billing until it could be determined who actually lived within the SRA boundaries.
I noted in my letter that "As a matter of fairness, it is important that the billing of these accounts be delayed until these 'errors and inconsistencies' are resolved by the Board of Forestry."
The next day, the Board of Equalization received a request from Cal Fire to delay the billing of the 2012-13 fire fee bills, which were scheduled to begin mailing April 2nd.
The fire fee is tax policy at its worst. Ever since the Legislature enacted this illegal tax, it's created one problem after another. If the Legislature doesn't act quickly to repeal this fiasco, the courts need to strike it down.

Proposed Legislation Would Make Pet Meds Tax Free
California pet and animal owners would pay less for medicines purchased from a local veterinarian if a new legislative measure sponsored by the State Board of Equalization becomes law. Making pet medicine tax-free will benefit California pet owners and veterinarians. It also benefits Californians by keeping more dollars in our state and promoting animal health, which is why I supported this proposal at the March meeting of the Board of Equalization.
According to the Californian Veterinary Medical Association, there are 19 million companion animal pets in California. Approximately 33% of households own at least one dog and approximately 28% own at least one cat.
Many Californians currently buy medicine for their pets online under the assumption that such purchases are tax free—not knowing they owe "use tax," the equivalent of sales tax. The proposed legislation would eliminate sales tax on drugs and medicines sold or used for the treatment of animals by veterinarians, animal shelters and certain nonprofits.
Licensed veterinarians are currently considered consumers and must pay tax on any drugs or medicines they purchase for use or resale.
The Board's unanimous vote to sponsor this bill shows it is a good idea with broad bipartisan support and I look forward to seeing this effort gain momentum in the Legislature.
Free Income Tax Assistance
A reminder of a program that I mentioned in last month's newsletter: individuals and families who need help with income tax return preparation can now visit Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) sites throughout California. These locations provide free tax preparation services to individuals and families who may not be able to afford a tax preparer.
You can schedule your free appointment with a certified preparer at a local VITA site.
To find a VITA location near you or schedule an appointment, visit boe.ca.gov/Runner/VITA.htm or irs.treasury.gov/freetaxprep.
Tax Tip of the Month
Q. When do local sales tax increases go into effect?
A. Increases in county and city sales tax rates take effect on April 1st. This year, California taxpayers will see sales tax increases in three counties (Marin, San Mateo, and Santa Clara) as well as in 19 cities.
Learn more by reading the BOE's "New Sales and Use Tax Rates" Special Notice or Publication 71.

- Manufacturer: Panasonic
- Part number: DMC-FP3S
- Description: The DMC-FP3 features a 4x optical zoom LUMIX DC VARIO lens (35mm camera equivalent: 35-140mm). The folded optics technology makes it possible to fit the high performance lens in futuristic, flat body. The lens cover can be opened and closed with the touch of a finger, and also serves as a power switch. The Extra Optical Zoom function uses the center part of the CCD to extend this 4x zoom ratio to powerful 8.4x zoom at a resolution of 3-megapixel or less. In IA (Intelligent Auto) Mode, 4 detection functions work automatically and simultaneously to optimize your settings, making it easier than ever to take beautiful photos every time. The IA Mode includes MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) to detect hand-shake, Intelligent ISO Control to detect subject movement, Face Detection AF/AE to detect faces in the frame and Intelligent Scene Selector to detect scene conditions. Sunset Mode has been added to the Intelligent Scene Selector. The DMC-FP3 incorporates a 3.0-inch, 230,000-dot touch-screen interface. While shooting, auto focus and exposure can be set by simply touching the subject at that part to activate the AF/AE. While playing back, you can quickly select an image to view by scrolling images. The DMC-FP3 also features Intelligent LCD. It automatically adjusts the brightness in 11 steps according to shooting conditions. This LCD provides sharp, clear images in virtually all shooting situations, ranging from nighttime to bright daylight scenes. To realize the Sonic Speed AF, a number of re-engineering and improvements are made including the adaptation of higher-speed actuator, the optimization of algorithms and the parallelization of software processing element. The result is ultra high speed yet accurate AF performance for you to enjoy the airy shooting that has experienced never before. Panasonic also replaced its linear program processing with parallel processing to achieve an ultra high-speed start-up time. The DMC-FP3 can record motion pictures in high-definition (1,280 x 720 pixels at 30 fps in Motion JPEG format). The pixel mixed readout method enables bright motion-picture recording even in low-light settings. The DMC-FP3 can also record stunning full-size motion pictures in WVGA (848 x 480 pixels at 30 fps) or standard motion pictures in VGA (640 x 480 pixels at 30 fps) and QVGA (320 x 240 pixels at 30 fps).

LIBERTY TOWNSHIP, Ohio - Usually this time of year high school football takes a back seat, but not today.
Liberty is looking for a head coach after Brian Jones stepped down after one season.
Liberty school officials say Jones stepped down for personal seasons.
Under Jones last year, the Leopards won the national division of the All American Conference, made the playoffs before losing to eventual state champion Norwayne in the second round.
The Leopards finished 10 and 2 overall.
Superintendent Stan Watson tells 21 Sports that the district will start the process of finding their new head coach as soon as possible.

L to R R to L Alpha
New bolts make this a fun lead. Common this route is not. It is the only bolted, five-ten, jug-haul, dyno-action, hueco-pocket, after-work, pitch near Denver. Don't count on it being unoccupied. I wouldn't have added this route, but "Choppers" need this page for comments.
Top ropers: All you need to do is thread the new chains with rapid-links. A long draw is nice to back yourself up while you thread. If the links look worn, then get new ones at the hardware store for a few bucks.

Through its business operations, Halmstad University has a major responsibility for environmental issues including striving towards a sustainable society. We see the establishment of environmental management as an important part of the regular business of the University. The University reports on an annual basis to The National Agency for Higher Education and the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency with regards to its environmental work.
Environmental management systems involve the systematisation of environmental work with clear guidelines and goals involving such aspects as central governing documents, clear descriptions of areas of responsibility, routines for follow-up together with the auditing and accounting of results.
The essential point with the introduction of an environmental management system is to integrate environmental considerations into the whole business operations and in such a way enhance the University's environmental performance. This should be implemented through continuously raising the levels of ambition, establishing new goals and taking further measures.
The environmental management work should be followed up and documented so that the Swedish Parliament and government can show the results of the environmental work involving state agencies and authorities. The documentation should therefore focus on goals, the fulfilment of these goals and continuous improvements which have been made.
The essence of the University's environmental management system is increasing positive environmental impacts arising from the core business operations (indirect environmental impact) as well as reducing the negative environmental impact derived form the maintenance of the business operations (direct environmental impact).

(June 20) -- FBI agents have confirmed that a search warrant was served Thursday night on the home of a self-described military watchdog in the tiny town of Rachel, near the mysterious Area 51 military base.
Eyewitness News has learned this action was initiated by the Joint Terrorism Task Force. The search warrant remains sealed and the FBI won't say what was seized from the home of Rachel resident Chuck Clark. It's believed the action was taken because Chuck Clark escorted the I-Team on a tour of the roads surrounding the base. During the visit, he showed us the location of military sensors, hidden on public land. Here's our story.
Retired astronomer and desert rat Chuck Clark has a new hobby. He's prowled the hills and deserts of Lincoln County for several years now, has photographed exotic aircraft in the skies, and keeps an eye on the top secret base known as Area 51. He's even written a book about the place. Over the past few months, he's discovered that the military has been installing secret sensor devices on public lands surrounding the base. Using a frequency counter device, he can tell when his vehicle trips a sensor. When that happens, he looks for the hard-to-spot wire atop the device, and then he digs them up, takes pictures, and puts them back.
Clark isn't a terrorist or spy but is angered that hikers, four wheelers, or photographers are being monitored by the military on public land, miles from the boundary of the base, which is clearly marked by signs.
Chuck Clark says, "It's overkill in my opinion. They have a 25-mile buffer zone around the base. Why they have to put stuff outside the line really escapes me."
During the I-Team visit last week, two sensors were located and base security wrote down the plate numbers of our vehicles.
We returned five days ago and drove to the rear entrance of Area 51.
Two days later, FBI agents, working with Air Force intelligence and the Joint Terrorism Task Force , raided Clark's home and seized photos, records and his computer. Is it legal for anyone to touch military sensors hidden on public land? The government doesn't think so, although Clark hasn't been charged with anything, is the military trying to silence this outback gadfly?
"They're paranoid about this location and I don't see why" said Clark.
We asked the BLM if it's legal for the military to put sensing devices out on public land but a spokesman couldn't answer our question. Law enforcement sources say that by handling the sensors, the devices are disabled. So it amounts to destruction of government property. As we mentioned, Clark hasn't been charged. He was out of the state when the warrant was served. Our investigation of the issues involved will continue.

Interviews will start Monday as the Carolina Panthers look to hire their new general manager. A report today indicates that Jim Popp, one of the Canadian Football League's top executives will be among the list of candidates.
Entering his 16th year in the CFL, the 48-year-old general manager has helped establish the Montreal Alouettes as one of the top teams in the league. Filed to ESPN by Pat Yaskinskas, Jim Popp will be on the Panthers interview list this week, as the organization casts a wide net.
This is precisely why the Carolina Panthers chose to bring Ernie Accorsi on board. As the head of the NFL's executive union he has an innate understanding not only of potential applicants inside the NFL, but also a handle on who could be available in non-traditional ranks. Reports out of Indianapolis in January had the Colts strongly considering hiring Popp, before choosing Ryan Grigson.
The Elkin, NC native has ties to the region, and his resume since 1996 speaks for itself: Four Grey Cups (the CFL's equivalent of the Lombardi Trophy), 2011 Executive of the year, and teams under his control have made the playoffs in twenty straight seasons -- yes, twenty. Granted it's the Canadian Football League, which carries a different set of challenges -- but this wouldn't be a random hiring without any merit. In 2010 numerous NFL teams were attempting to interview Popp, but the Aloutettes quickly looked to block a potential move, signing him to a new long-term deal.
Since re-signing with Montreal in 2010 his team has gone 33-21, winning the Grey Cup in 2010, appearing in the Eastern Conference Final in 2011, and losing in the semi-finals in 2012. It would be an unconventional hire in some respects, but a Carolina native who has a player personnel background -- that's right up JR's alley.

Alerting motorists to dangers of vehicle defects (From Herald Series)

Alerting motorists to dangers of vehicle defects
2:00pm Saturday 24th November 2012 in News
HOW many dangerous defects can you spot on this car? How many could you spot on your own?
That was the challenge firefighters were putting to passers-by at Abingdon fire station this week.
With an average of four fatalities every month and one serious injury each day on Oxfordshire roads, the fire service is hoping to educate more people and prevent vehicle accidents as part of Road Safety Week.
Firefighter Andy Durndell said: "These vehicles are a great asset in helping us engage with people about the subject of road safety and ultimately help change their views and practices."
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue hoped to highlight the importance of keeping your car well maintained, from making sure tyres are pumped up to the right pressure to ensuring the brakes are working.
Chief Fire Officer Dave Etheridge said: "We want to educate people on the little things they should be keeping an eye on in their cars that could prevent them from being involved in an accident.
"Events such as this offer us a fantastic opportunity to work with the public and remind them of key road safety issues."

There are countless cars around Oxford with broken/failed headlamps, broken/failed indicators, worn tyres and exceptionally noisey exhausts.
A regular one I'm noticing now are brakes that are so worn that cars don't stop until they are well into the "cycle zone" at traffic lights.

Town Square
Waiving The Flag of Freedom
Original post made by James Lewis on Oct 7, 2007
Many, many cities throughout the Bay Area, the State of California and across the Country proudly display a MUNICIPAL flag. Over many centuries, the flag has represented many things to citizens across their lands.
Is it time for the City of Menlo Park to consider a "flag"? Could a contest be established for citizens and others to SUBMIT their ideas, recommendations and suggestions? Is the time now and the place here?
I shall defer this important decision to the citizens of Menlo Park along with the City Council's collective good judgement. However, please keep in mind while making this decision, that a flag may go a long wyas in building CIVIC PRIDE and fostering a dynamic, viable COMMUNITY. Flags can make a difference. The question is, will a flag in Menlo Park make a difference for you and for your fellow citizens?
It may seem appropriate at this time to restate some thoughts about BETSY ROSS, as follows:
"While Americans recognize and celebrate collective achievements such as the writing of the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE, victory in the REVOLUTIONAL WAR, or the landing of a man ON THE MOON, it is the individual accomplishments that is cherished by many people. The "stars" of the aforementiond events, such as THOMAS JEFFERSON, GEORGE WASHINGTON AND NEIL ARMSTRONG -- outshine the collective constellation. One person's contribution C A N define the course and meaning of history.
Betsy Ross sewed the first American Flag. When we view the flag, we think of LIBERTY, FREEDOM, PRIDE AND BETSY ROSS. The American flag flies proudly on the MOON, sits atop MOUNT EVEREST, and is hurtling out in SPACE. The flag is how America signs her NAME.
It is no surprise that Betsy Ross has become one of the most cherished figures of AMERICAN HISTORY."
Food for thought......
James Lewis, a Palo Alto resident, but nearly a
37 year CITIZEN OF MENLO PARK.
on Oct 7, 2007 at 10:45 pm
Seeing the word "waiving" in such close proximity to "freedom" kind of makes me wonder about the point of this grandstanding.
on Oct 8, 2007 at 2:12 pm
I do not think now is the time for Menlo Park to be having a flag contest because we have more important issues we need to focus on. A flag contest would take up a lot of staff, public and city council time (making sure the contest is fair, legal, getting judges, etc...)
It is a nice idea, but we have a new City Manager and a surplus of funds and it would be best to let him prioritize on critical issues:
* recruiting and retaining police officers (the city can afford to pay the same as Redwood City does for starting and line level police officers)
* infrastructure, traffic, health, safety and mass transit issues
* social services for people in need, especially children
A flag contest in this day and time would probably create more problems and distractions for people who need to concentrate on urgent issues.
Maybe in the future when the City is in better shape the time for a flag contest will present itself.
on Oct 13, 2007 at 9:43 pm
I live my life by the principal "why put off until tomorrow that which you can do today". Afterall, there is no time like the present.
The time to select a pattern for a flag ought to be minimal. Common sense tells you the "benefit" is more than worth the "cost". Sure, everything takes some time and money, but think of the PRIDE, think of the LOYALTY, think of the historic BENEFITS of a flag dating back 100's of years.
Providing a flag for Menlo Park is long overdue. One may say, the TIME is now and the PLACE is here. It certainly is true for many of Menlo Park neighbors,who have long had a flag flying PROUDLY for years.
The email above sounds like it is written by a Council member. If so, I have no doubt your plate is full if not overflowing. There are big problems in this town and equally big challenges. However, the City Council can be a POLICY MAKER in this case, leaving the details to staff, one of the important COMMISSIONS, or an ad hoc group.
Let's RECONSIDER having a flag for Menlo Park -- for today's citizens and for GENERATIONS to come.

Passenger Jet Shot Down in Eastern Ukraine
Malaysia Airlines lost a plane in Ukrainian airspace near the Ukraine-Russia border Thursday. The company's official Twitter page posted at 11:36 a.m. EST that it had "lost contact of MH17 from Amsterdam." Reuters reported that all 295 people aboard are dead. The jet came down over Donetsk, a pro-Russian Ukrainian separatist stronghold, crashing some twenty-five miles from the Russian border. The Russian news source Interfax reportedly broke the story citing Russian aviation officials. Its website was inaccessible as the story broke. The Associated Press reports that Anton Gerashenko, Ukraine's interior minister, wrote on his Facebook profile that it was shot down by a Buk missile system.

City taxes in Clay County to be billed Nov. 1
The City has changed the date for billing City real estate taxes for those who own property in Clay County. City property taxes formerly billed on Sept. 1 of each year will be billed on Nov. 1 of each year beginning this year.
The City only bills real property taxes for Kansas City citizens residing in Clay County. Cass, Jackson and Platte counties currently bill and collect City real estate taxes on behalf of the City by including these taxes on their annual tax bills mailed to property owners on Nov. 1.
The change in billing dates was approved by the City Council Aug. 15. The revision will be less confusing and give Kansas City property owners in Clay County the benefit of receiving their City property tax bills at about the same time they receive property tax bills from the County.

After a less than exceptional start to the season, the Washington State Cougars coaching staff says the team still has the ability to turn this season around.
The Cougars currently stand at a 2-4 record overall, including a 0-3 start to conference play. While the start is not what head coach Mike Leach had in mind for his team, he believes his team can turn it around and start winning. Now he just needs his players to believe it too.
Leach says he is tired of the body language he sees on the field and the team needs to avoid the extreme lows and highs during games. Leach has seen enough attitude on the field and just needs his players to believe they are as good as he knows they can be.

On Fawders Bay
It's a strange experience for first-time dads to suddenly become the subject of Father's Day. Your whole life you've had to remember this holiday (hopefully) weeks in advance to pick out a great gift or put a card in the mail. And when dads reach about 50, their tastes are essentially frozen and it's nearly impossible to pick out something thoughtful, so I've historically just stuck with the card or phone call and felt a bit bad about not doing more. I'll admit that as a son, I've often felt a fair amount of Father's Day guilt.
But then your life partner gives birth. You've reproduced. There's a little version of you messing her or himself in the next room, and everything changes.
Suddenly. Today is your day.
It's like you got a 2nd birthday all of the sudden where anything goes. People come from miles around to ask one question: "What's Dad wanna do? What's Dad wanna do?" And here's the kicker: They're talking about YOU! The world is your oyster. You could go anywhere, see anything, be whoever or whatever you want to be. And you don't have to get no permission from no one because you're a Dad on Father's Day. So beat it, all you non-Dads! This is Dad territory!
And it gets better. You almost always get the gift at the top of your list. Because the one thing you truly want – the one thing at the top of your heart's proverbial Amazon wishlist – is for your little Mini Me to look up at you and simply say the words "Happy Fawders Bay, Dada!" When you hear these words – those poetically eloquent words, your Father's Day dreams are fulfilled, your heart fully explodes, and you sink into the couch to start the long road to recovery with only afternoon football to aid you.
This experience made me realize. Father's Day gifts aren't about the gift. They're a physical object or gesture that reminds the dad in your life of the first time he heard "Happy Fawders Bay, Dada!". If you can make him feel that feeling again, you've given him the best gift in the world.
Happy Fawders Bay to all you Dadas out there.

Azure Redis Cache is offered in two tiers:
Azure Redis Cache is currently in preview and the prices below include a preview discount ranging from 50-65%, depending on the region and size.
Managed Cache Service is offered in three tiers based on cache size provisioned: Basic, Standard and Premium.
Contact us for Cache Service sizes larger than 150GB.
Prices apply for Web or Worker roles in Cloud Services that you deploy the cache in.
Shared Caching is priced based on the cache size provisioned.
No. Azure Redis Cache units are standalone at the advertised sizes, either as a single node in Basic, or as a Primary/Secondary combination in Standard.
The concept 'scale' refers to the number of units of a particular type that a customer can purchase. It determines the maximum cache size provided by each tier, e.g. Basic can provide up to 1 GB, Standard can provide up to 10 GB and the Premium can provide up to 150 GB.
Upon reaching the scale limit, you have the option to purchase a higher level tier that better fits your cache size needs. For example, after hitting the 1 GB limit on the Basic tier, you would need to purchase the Standard tier.
Additional units of a tier have all the same price.
We don't support the ability to create a managed cached in the portal today, you will need use the Azure Powershell SDK to create a cache. (The instructions can be found here.) Once you have created the cache you will have a full experience in the portal to manage it. We are currently evaluating options how to best bring this functionality back.
No. In-Role Cache can be deployed as a service alongside other application code in your web or worker roles. However, you can choose to have worker roles specifically dedicated to the cache and pay normal Cloud Services rates, which vary by the type of role and the role size.
Data transfers to and from the cache are charged at the regular rate.
We just announced support for the Azure Redis Cache, and we recommend new development use this cache. It is based on the open standard Redis protocol that is supported by many programming languages (C/C++, .NET, Go, Java, Node.js, Objective C, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby and over 29 more languages). This allows it to be used by nearly any workload you could build inside of Azure. Today it is available in Preview with up to 1 GB of cache, and larger sizes will be available this summer when it goes into production. This is the recommended cache in Azure moving forward because of the flexibility it offers. If you must have a cache today over 1 GB and with an SLA use the Azure Managed Cache. The Azure Managed Cache supports applications written in .NET up to 150 GB.
The Azure Shared Cache goes out of service in September of 2014, so you will need to move to the Azure Redis Cache or the Azure Managed Cache by that date. We recommend moving to the Azure Redis Cache but if you want to move your application with no code changes you can move to the Azure Managed Cache.
To support customers who made investments into Velocity Cache, who have dependency on it in their apps, to give them as much time as they need to move to the Redis cache.
Azure Redis Cache is in Preview and currently available in the following regions:
Azure Redis Cache is not available in the Japan East region. Please select another region.
Azure Redis Cache is not available in the US East 2 region. Please select another region.

Two stabbed in Hook Road, Epsom - man held under Mental Health Act
Updated 12:54pm Tuesday 22nd April 2014 in News By Hardeep Matharu, Chief Reporter
A man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after two people were stabbed in the early hours of Good Friday.
Surrey Police were called to the attack, in Hook Road, Epsom, at 4.35am, on April 18, following reports of a serious assault.
Officers found that an 18-year-old woman and a 22-year-old man had suffered stab wounds.
They were taken to St George's Hospital, in Tooting, with serious injuries which were not life-threatening.
A 19-year-old man was arrested at the scene and was taken to hospital with head injuries he sustained during the attack.
He was later sectioned under the Mental Health Act and has been transferred to a secure hospital while he remains on police bail.
A police spokesman said that the investigation is at an early stage and detectives are currently carrying out a number of enquiries to establish the full circumstances surrounding this incident.
He said: "At this stage, this is thought to be an isolated incident and there is nothing to suggest any wider threat to the local community.
"Officers from the local safer neighbourhood team are assisting the investigation and carrying out patrols in the area to provide reassurance to local residents."
Epsom artist Peter Mugridge said: "All day Friday and Saturday the house was taped off with crime scene tape and two police vehicles outside."

Kiev has a fascinating history and a high level of cultural life. For the past few years, it has also offered an exciting nightlife, with numerous theatres, cafés, restaurants and nightclubs.
Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, has had an eventful past. It has been occupied by Poles, Russians and other nationalities. These occupations have, of course, left their mark on the architecture and culture of the city. Kiev's most beautiful historic building is St. Sophia Cathedral, an eleventh-century building with magnificent mosaics and frescos.
Other tourist attractions include the Chernobyl Museum, which contains information about the nuclear disaster, and the Caves Monastery with the Dormition Cathedral and the Historical Treasures Museum. The centre of Kiev offers a large number of shopping options. Vullitsya Kreschchatyk, a shopping street, and Bessarabsky Market are certainly worth a visit.

Programs for Academic and Creative Enrichment (PACE) provides an enrichment curriculum to meet the needs of students who exhibit strength in academics. PACE includes the broad spectrum of opportunities for children to discover and expand their unique talents, affinities, and academic strengths. Teachers collaborate to provide a wide range of challenging learning opportunities within and beyond the classroom. Students are challenged to extend their learning in a variety of ways: advance and refine academic skills, develop problem-solving and higher level thinking, produce work of significant depth and complexity, and apply multiple intelligences to create original work.
Imagine traveling to Japan and China. Perhaps you are a jury member meticulously weighing the presented evidence. Picture yourself journeying back in time to interview your great-grandparents, discovering their poignant memories as new immigrants to our country. Each of these form the core of some of the children's learning experiences in PACE. The children actively learn by questioning, discussing, debating, researching, writing, and collaborating. What incredible adventures!

A mid-19th century translation of this work. "The grand, leading principle, towards which every argument … unfolded in these pages directly converges, is the absolute and essential importance of human development in its richest diversity." This description by Wilhelm von Humboldt of his purpose in writing The Limits of State Action animates John Stuart Mill's On Liberty and serves as its famous epigraph. Seldom has a book spoken so dramatically to another writer. Many commentators even believe that Humboldt's discussion of issues of freedom and individual responsibility possesses greater clarity and directness than Mill's. The Limits of State Action, by "Germany's greatest philosopher of freedom," as F. A. Hayek called him, has an exuberance and attention to principle that make it a valuable introduction to classical liberal political thought. It is also crucial for an understanding of liberalism as it developed in Europe at the turn of the nineteenth century. Humboldt explores the role that liberty plays in individual development, discusses criteria for permitting the state to limit individual actions, and suggests ways of confining the state to its proper bounds. In so doing, he uniquely combines the ancient concern for human excellence and the modern concern for what has come to be known as negative liberty.

Hello everyone!
I recently moved into an old apartment and the biggest eye sore in the whole place is the peeling paint of the bathroom tiles. Because it is an old apartment and on the lower side of rent, the landlords decided to paint over the old tiles instead of installing new ones. I would just like to paint over them. Do you have any recommendations for how I should go about it, a good paint to use, or another solution to my problem? Thanks for any advice!
Hello Stephanie,
First I would change your screen name to just your first name. You've given people a lot of personal information on a public board.
Now with respect to your tiles, if your landlord is OK with you doing the work I'd think you'd need to get rid of the old paint, being tile you can probably scrape it off quite easily with a straight edge razor blade scraper.
Once you get it clean here is a decent article on the subject: http://www.redbookmag.com/reci...ceramic-tile#slide-1
General Disclaimer
Any advice given here is general in nature and is not necessarily valid for your given area. If in doubt check with your local codes enforcement department for what is required when doing electrical, plumbing or structural work on your house. Permits may or may not be required in your area and home owners may not be able to DIY some tasks. I have no way of knowing if you have the skills needed to complete the tasks you are asking about, when in doubt seek professional assistance.
My advice may be worth exactly what you pay me for it. :-) For the record I did not stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Car Safety Features are Necessary for Inexperienced Drivers
- 17
- August
The leading cause of death for American teenagers is car accidents. Roughly two-thirds of fatal teen accidents involve driver error. While newly licensed teens on the road are more likely to be involved in a car accident, there are safety measures parents can take to prevent or reduce the severity of a car crash, should one occur.
Choosing the right vehicle for a new driver can be difficult. Crash test experts recommend mid-size sedans for teenagers because they are easier to control and are large enough to support the impact of a motor vehicle accident. For those who prefer trucks, smaller ones are preferable as they are easier to drive. Large trucks and SUVs are not recommended for teens because they are more prone to roll-overs and they are harder to control.

The tool we offer is called the Hebrew Day Planner and it has 3 things to offer:
- First of all it will enable you to put your planning for the relational season of your day first.
- Secondly, it can help you become more productive focus on getting your workday to cease at 6 p.m.
- Third, the HDP can enable you to sleep better than you ever have.
The Hebrew Day Planner helps make the relational season of the day, the dinner table and beyond, the first priority in our daily planning by placing it at the top of page. This highlights 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. as the hours to linger around the dinner table and waste the rest of the evening away with family, friends/neighbors. If wasting the evening hours away with friends/neighbors or family sounds good to you, you might be closer than you think to a life of Real Simplicity.
We would like to introduce you to a broader sample of The Hebrew Day Planner right here on this blog. It is available in the upper right hand corner of this blog and can be downloaded to your computer for you to print off and use. Simply click on it.
If you're like me, when you first begin to use it, it might mess with your head. It's harder than you think to plan the last part of your day, first. Keep at it though and it just might be what you've needed to help you not only enjoy your relationships more, sleep better than you ever have, and also make you more productive than you've ever been.
(For more details about why we developed this tool, read Real Simplicity.) http://www.zondervan.com/Cultures/en-US/Product/ProductDetail.htm?ProdID=com.zondervan.9780310334422&QueryStringSite=Zondervan

ARCADIA, Calif. (March 5, 2009)—With longshots connecting on both Pro-Ride synthetic and grass, Santa Anita experienced its 21st Pick Six carryover from 51 days of racing on Thursday, as $78,877 will roll into Friday's popular exotic wager. It is expected Friday's total Pick Six pool could reach $500,000.
Thursday's Pick Six started with race three at 1 1/16 miles on Pro-Ride and it was taken by Andwhatelse, with veteran Alex Solis aboard. Owned by Michael Bello, the 3-year-old Kentucky-bred colt by Even the Score paid $22.00 to win. He's trained by Jeff Mullins.
Race four, at one mile on turf, went to the Darrell Vienna-conditioned Thorondor, paying $8.00 to win. The 3-year-old California-bred colt by Ferrari was ridden by David Flores.
The fifth race went to Dotsy Jean under Joel Rosario. Trained by Marty Jones and owned by AJM Racing, the 4-year-old California-bred filly by Lit de Justice paid $12.40 to win. The fifth was run at seven furlongs on Pro-Ride.
Race six was also contested at seven furlongs on the main track, and it was won by Heartless Vixen, returning $27.60 to win. The 3-year-old Kentucky-bred filly by Lion Heart is owned by Gary Broad, trained by Ron Ellis and was ridden by Victor Espinoza.
Thursday's seventh, at one mile on turf, produced a win mutuel similar to race six, as Hot n' Dusty got up in the last jump to pay $27.00. The 4-year-old daughter of top sire Unusual Heat provided Alex Solis with his second win on the afternoon. Bred by Madeline Auerbach, the California-bred is owned by Auerbach and Little Red Feather Racing. She is trained by Barry Abrams.
The Pick Six ended with race eight at six furlongs on Pro-Ride, and it was taken by 10-1 longshot Mi Rey who paid $22.20 to win. Ridden by Michael Baze, the 8-year-old Argentine-bred gelding by Louis Quatorze is owned by Guiol or Dennis O'Neill and is trained by Doug O'Neill.
Friday's Pick Six will cover races three through eight. All General Admission attendees will be admitted free and box seats are available free on a first come, first served basis.
Beer, sodas, coffee, hot dogs and popcorn are available for one dollar.
First post time on Friday is 1 p.m.

I just arrived back in Southwest Florida after a two hour drive from my hotel in Fort Lauderdale. Last night was pretty crazy, considering that the game ended at about 9:45 p.m. but I didn't get back from the stadium until about 1:30 a.m.
As you all know by now, Drew Brees the Saints shocked most of the experts by pulling off a 31-17 victory over Peyton Manning and Indianapolis Colts. The game experience was incredible, and for those who say that Sun Life Stadium (or whatever they'll be calling it by the time South Florida hosts another Super Bowl) isn't capable of holding another Super Bowl without renovations, I say balderdash.
It had been a couple of years since I last watched a game there, I think Daunte Culpepper was the Dolphins quarterback at the time, but I walked away pretty impressed. The club level facilities are excellent, the stadium has two beautiful high definition screens, and there really isn't a bad seat in the house.
I had a chance to go into the Saints locker room following the game, and it was a great scene. Every football player dreams of winning the Super Bowl, and there wasn't one Saints player that wasn't enjoying the moment.
Overall my week in South Florida was great. I worked long hours, spent more time in line at the concession stand inside the media center than I did at any parties, but as a first time Super Bowl attendee, I give it two thumbs up.
Now I'm back to my main job as Florida Everblades beat writer. The team has two home games this week, tomorrow and Wednesday, before hitting the road again. I encourage you to check out my work on the Blades Blog, and the Everblades podcast, which should have a new episode posted later this week.

Chocolate Rum Truffles Recipe
It's hard to eat just one of these chocolaty silky candies. I like to keep some on hand for a quick sweet treat. DeAnn Alleva, Hudson, Wisconsin
- 14 ounces semisweet chocolate, divided
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/3 cup butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon rum extract
- 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts, toasted
- Coarsely chop 12 ounces of chocolate; set aside. In a saucepan, heat cream over low heat until bubbles form around sides of the pan. Remove from the heat; add chopped chocolate, stirring until melted and smooth.
- Cool to room temperature. Stir in butter and extract. Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or until firm.
- Grate remaining chocolate; place in a shallow dish. Add nuts; set aside. Shape tablespoonfuls of chilled chocolate mixture into balls. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. (If truffles are soft, refrigerate until easy to handle.) Roll truffles in chocolate-nut mixture. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Yield: 3 dozen.

This recipe is spot-on wonderful. So many people enjoy the conveniance of truffles made with cream cheese or the like but there is nothing like the silky goodness of a truffle made with heavy cream. Mmm!! Yummy! Thank you for posting!!
