You know the scenario- you just left a bar, a restaurant, a party or wherever. You had a couple of drinks…or more maybe more. Whatever the number of drinks are, you know you are either legally "under the influence" or straight up intoxicated. You look out your rear view mirror and you see the flashing lights behind you…oh brother. As you try not to panic you begin to weigh what you can do in the moment to help your situation. To blow or not to blow? In other words you are ask what Gina from Arcadia asked me on Facebook—IF I KNEW I WAS DRINKING SHOULD I REFUSE TO TAKE THE TEST?
First things first. You need to know your tests. There are a couple of kinds of tests—first there is thing called the PAS- that stands for Preliminary Alcohol Screening Test. This is actually NOT a chemical test by law and you are LEGALLY allowed to refuse to take it. The key is to be able to recognize a PAS. A PAS is a HANDHELD Breathalyzer that is done right there out in the field. Lots of people get confused between this and the real Breathalyzer, which the cops have to actually take you down to the station to take.
So lets say the cops say the magic words --- YOU ARE UNDER ARREST. You hear those words under California law YOU MUST TAKE THE TEST. Why? Well remember when you got your drivers license and you signed a form well one of the things you consented to for the privilege of driving is that you would submit to a chemical test when requested by law enforcement. IF YOU ARE ARRESTED you have to take a blood, breath, or urine…. Another week I will answer which one is the best. But under the implied consent law, you have to take one.
If you refuse to take a test not only can it make your sentence worse for the DUI itself but it also will cost you your license for a year with a first time DUI and 2 years revocation on 2nd one. THE DMV can still revoke your license EVEN IF YOU ARE ACQUITTED OF THE DUI.
So I know what you are thinking….ok if I refuse worst-case scenario is the DUI is gone and I lose my license for a year. That's better than a DUI. Well, maybe. Keep in mind that prosecutors may have other things to convict you. For example, they will talk about your driving pattern, the smell of alcohol on your breath, how you looked (like do you look disheveled or look like Lindsay Lohan), they will use the statements you make (by the way everyone says they just had 2 beers), they will use how you preformed on the pesky field sobriety test you know the one's touch your nose, follow the pen, stand on one foot, say the alphabet and GET THIS---the prosecutor can USE YOUR REFUSAL TO argue CONSCIOUSNESS OF GUILT. In other words, the prosecutor can argue you knew your were guilty. So, in the end you may get convicted and lose your license for a year.
If you have a legal question that you have not know who to ask, post then for me on MyFox LA Facebook page.

Excitement builds as X Factor finalist James Arthur returns to Teesside
4:39pm Monday 3rd December 2012 in News By Chris Webber, Reporter (Stockton/Hartlepool)
THE region is expected to go crazy for X Factor finalist James Arthur when he comes home tomorrow (Tuesday, December 4).
Tickets for the Saltburn singer's show at Middlesbrough Town Hall were gone in just 30 minutes yesterday.
Crowds are expected by the red carpet tonight for the X Factor finalist before the show and the talented singer song-writer will have a TV crew following him around his old haunts in Saltburn.
Hundreds queued at Middlesbrough Town Hall for the free tickets and more than 2,000 are expected to attend tomorrow night.
The 24-year-old will compete against Jahmene Douglas and Christopher Maloney in Saturday's final and is second favourite with bookmaker Ladbrokes at 6/4, compared to Jahmene at 6/5 favourite and Christopher at 7/2.
James has tweeted: "I can't wait to come home," and told his home fans, "thanks for all the support."
His excited older sister, Sian, called on fans to head to Dundas Street in Saltburn from 9am where James is expected to appear at 9.45am.
"It'll be the place to be," she said.
He won the support of last year's X Factor finalist Amelia Lily, of Nunthorpe, Middlesbrough, who tweeted: "So proud of James Arthur. Another home coming in the Boro! Go on son."
James will visit his old Saltburn flat, his local pub, The Victoria and Redcar pier with his mentor, Nicole Scherzinger and a TV crew in tow in the daytime. From 6pm TFM Radio will host a warm up event at Centre Square before the concert starts at 8pm.
Albert Road will be closed between Corporation Road and Grange Road from 6.30pm until 10pm as thousands converge on the warm up and concert. Traffic will be diverted although emergency service vehicles will be allowed through at all times.

While Joe Banner and Jimmy Haslam conduct interviews in Arizona for a new head coach, the one person I've been interested to hear from or about is defensive coordinator Dick Jaruon.
On Monday, Banner and Haslam made it clear that all coaches were free to interview elsewhere if they wished and that they could be brought back if the new coach wanted them. What we really don't know is if Jauron wants to come back to the Browns without Shurmur and Holmgren here. We reached out through the Browns, but have received no statement or answer. (Not surprisingly.)
I hope that Jauron wants to finish what he has started here in Cleveland and will be welcomed by the new head coach, whoever that happens to be. I would put the odds of that happening at fifty-fifty or less unfortunately.
If there is a change of defensive coordinators, we could be staring at another transition between the 4-3 and 3-4 defense. As Browns fans will remember, that transition is sometimes a slow painful one. [Read more...]

The Balance of Media Power
Is Poised to Change
By THE NEW YORK TIMES
Regulation: F.C.C.'s Chief
Seeks to Remove Restraints
If all goes according to
plan, 2003 will be the most important year in the tenure of Michael K.
Powell as head of the Federal Communications Commission.
Mr. Powell
is preparing to unleash a set of proposals in the next few months that
will unshackle the nation's largest broadcasters and telecommunications
conglomerates from restraints that have prevented them from growing. He
is armed with a broad deregulatory agenda and a series of court opinions
that have questioned or struck down some of the agency's most pivotal and
longest-lasting rules.
will be the most important year for these industries and the commission
since the passage of the Telecom Act seven years ago," said Scott C. Cleland,
the chief executive of the Precursor Group and a regulatory analyst.
many of the issues before the commission defy traditional partisanship,
it does not hurt that with a Republican Congress, many of Mr. Powell's
strongest allies now control the relevant House and Senate committees and
are likely to provide few political obstacles.
In the
Senate, for instance, Mr. Powell will now be reporting to a commerce committee
that will be headed by Senator John McCain, the Arizona Republican who
recruited him for the job of F.C.C. commissioner in 1997. Mr. McCain replaces
Senator Ernest F. Hollings, Democrat of South Carolina, who was Mr. Powell's
toughest critic and opposed many of his proposals.
the top of Mr. Powell's list is his plan to relax or eliminate a variety
of restraints on the size of the nation's broadcasters and cable owners.
ownership rules that the commission will reconsider restrict a newspaper
from owning a TV station in the same city. They prevent a media conglomerate
from owning two television networks. They prohibit a network from owning
stations that broadcast to more than 35 percent of the nation's homes.
They restrict a broadcaster from owning two television stations in the
same market unless there are at least eight other competitors. They restrict
a company from owning more than eight radio stations in the same market.
And they prohibit a cable company from owning more than 30 percent of the
national market.
The nation's
largest local telephone companies are also expecting to win substantial
regulatory relief this year, from requirements that they provide the individual
elements of their networks to competitive startups at à la carte
prices that the phone companies say are too low.
will be a very pro-investment deregulatory decision," said Mr. Cleland.
"It will
encourage the incumbents to invest more because they won't have to resell
at lower prices. It will be great news for the incumbents and for the Lucents,
Nortel and other equipment players. It will be very bad news for the competitors
who depend on regulatory subsidies."
Satellite Television:
DirecTV Is at Center of a Power Shift
more than two years of shifting alliances, ferocious bidding wars, and
behind-the-scenes regulatory wrangling, the media moguls Rupert Murdoch
and John C. Malone are within striking distance of acquiring control of
the satellite television service DirecTV, a strategic beachhead that could
alter the balance of power in the industry.
11 million subscribers, DirecTV, part of the Hughes Electronic subsidiary
of General Motors, is the largest satellite broadcaster in the country
and the third-largest pay television service. Federal regulators recently
blocked a deal for G.M. to sell Hughes to its satellite rival EchoStar
Communications as anticompetitive, leaving Mr. Murdoch, the chairman of
the News Corporation, and Mr. Malone, the chairman of the investment company
Liberty Media, as the two remaining contenders for the business, and they
are currently bidding as partners.
want DirecTV in part to help their channels. The News Corporation owns
Fox News and Fox Sports, and Liberty Media owns Starz Encore and has stakes
in Discovery, Court TV and others. A satellite system would guarantee distribution,
increasing the channels' leverage in talks with the six major cable operators,
which together account for 80 percent of the nation's cable subscribers.
Mr. Murdoch and Mr. Malone are old hands at using control of major pay
television systems to benefit favored channels. Mr. Murdoch operates a
satellite network that stretches from Europe to Latin America.
Mr. Malone
built Liberty Media while he was the chief executive of Tele-Communications
Inc., which before it was sold was the largest cable company in the country;
he made investments in new pay television channels and then carried them
on his company's systems. Owning a major satellite service would make it
easier for both companies to once again start channels, said Derek Baine,
an analyst at Kagan World Media.
But it
may mean stiff new competition for cable companies. Analysts say that the
News Corporation can use its size to lower expenses for satellite equipment,
possibly enabling the company to set lower prices, while using its channels
to promote DirecTV. Mr. Baine said both companies are likely to make DirecTV
into a much more vigorous competitor for cable customers.
And the
means of their competition could send ripples through the rest of the television
business: DirecTV is already wooing customers with digital video recorder
set-top boxes that make it easy for subscribers to record programs, view
them when they want, and fast-forward past the commercials. Analysts say
that they expect the new suitors to escalate the effort, an ominous possibility
for broadcasters who sell advertising.
Magazines: U.S. Publishers
Take Cues From the British
The success of Maxim, the
bawdy British-owned men's magazine whose start-up in the United States
has taken young male readers by storm, has publishers on this side of the
Atlantic wondering whether the American way is the only way.
The British
publishing industry is a frantic place that is driven by the whims of the
newsstand 80 percent of magazines come from single-copy sales. American
publishers have noticed that British editors know their way around a newsstand
and have been hiring them in droves. With costs escalating and advertising
slumping, American publishers are looking to reduce the expense side of
producing a magazine and maximize its impact, a formula the British seem
to have down pat.
magazines may not be the qualitative equivalent of American publications,
but they seem to have no trouble meeting the needs of the magazine-buying
public. Many British magazines make do with staffs that are half the size
of their American counterparts and much less well compensated. And the
lack of layers means that there is no endless editing and reiterating of
copy until as some writers might claim most of the life dribbles out
of an idea.
age of celebrity editors and monstrous staffing are over," said Felix Dennis,
owner of Dennis Publishing. "This is not a business of sufficient margin
to permit that kind of excess."
are some components of the British publishing environment that no one in
America is in a hurry to emulate. The dogfight at the newsstand has compelled
publishers to start using "cover-mounts," a practice in which a consumer
product is "poly-bagged" with the magazine. That means British consumers
can get a garden trowel or a pair of thong underwear along with their magazine.
aside, even the quintessentially American publisher, Time Inc., is looking
to IPC Media, the British publisher the company bought last year, for new
is going to continue to increase and paper will rise, so costs are going
to have to be looked at," said Norman Pearlstine, the editor in chief of
Time Inc., a unit of AOL Time Warner. "There are differences in the market,
but I think there are some approaches in Britain that are worth thinking
In 1998, movie director Alexandre
JODOROWSKY and master cardmaker Philippe CAMOIN accomplished the task of
restoring the TAROT of MARSEILLES. Their research led to discoveries: secrets
"hidden" for centuries.
Legendary film director,
master of Tarot, scriptwriter for comic strips and novelist Alexandre Jodorowsky
has studied Tarot for over 40 years. He says: "The Tarot of Marseilles
is the only reference Tarot I have studied for over 20 years." Alexandre
Jodorowsky decided to restore the Original Tarot with Philippe Camoin because
"knowing secret facts regarding its history, manufacturing, tradition,
symbolism and having the original plates, meant we were the only ones who
could properly restore the Original Tarot of Marseilles."
Philippe Camoin has studied
symbolism since the age of 14. "I grew up with the Tarot. As a child, the
prints on my bedroom walls were the 78 arcana of Nicolas Convers Tarot
of Marseilles, who founded what later became the Camoin House."
Cahokia Mounds: The CITY
The remnants of the Mississippian's
central city – now known as Cahokia for the Indians who lived nearby in
the late 1600s – are preserved within the 2200-acre tract that is the Cahokia
Mounds State Historic Site, located just eight miles east of downtown St.
Louis, Missouri, near Collinsville, Illinois.

3.83/5 rDev -7.3%
On tap at Capone's, 3/19/09.
Poured a cloudy muddy brownish amber with thin beige head. Average retention and some lacing. Smells of mango, coconut, bourbon, vanilla, brown sugar, and caramel. The mix of bourbon mixed with the hops makes for tastes of tropical fruits like pineapple, mango, and coconut, then some caramel and a slightly bittering grass and woody finish with a good amount of alcohol warmth. Medium to medium-full in body with moderate carbonation. Comes off as very tropical and unique for a barleywine. A little off at first, but as it warms up the flavors come out and becomes more drinkable with the notes of Brett and bourbon having a nice active roll. Still a little too hot to drink often, but a good sipper.

On tap at Capones. 2-year old, aged keg.
Poured a deeper amd hany amberish-brownish color with a very small sized off white head. Aromas of dark fruits, some leatheriness, caramel, vanilla, and woody. The brett came out a little more as the glass aired out and warmed up. Tastes of dark fruits, caramel, vanilla, earlthy, and woody. Lighter alcohol in the finish. The brett was there, but more on the subtle side.

S - Bananas, cherries, roasted caramel, butter and suger heated up. It reminds me of a dark fruit strussel! It is an incredibly pleasant and complex nose.
T & M & D - Bourbon is present on the tongue, oak woddsy flavors, caramel, a wine like tanin, and a subtle spice. It has a creamy buttery mouthfeel with a dry tanin hoppy finish. There is little carbination to this complex medium bodied brew.

From notes. On tap at Capone's...
Appears a dark amber with a small white head that slowly fades into a mild egg shell collar. Tiny remnants of spotty lacing are left around the glass, which droop back into the collar.
Smell is of tart berries, vanilla, & charred bananas.
Taste is of the same as the mentioned aromas with sweet, rum cake flavors coming through.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, tart, and sugary in the finish.

Authorities in Walterboro are looking for a teen accused of trying to bludgeon a man to death last Sunday.
Walterboro Public Safety officers say they are looking for 19-year-old Quenton HaKeith Sanders, who used an unknown blunt object to beat a 31-year-old into unconsciousness at the Sunset Inn on Bells Highway around 5 p.m. Sunday.
Witnesses at the scene told investigators that preceding the assault, the victim and Sanders had a series of arguments throughout the day. Sanders then left and returned with two other suspects.
Authorities said one of those suspects reportedly put his hand on his waistband, as if he had a gun, at which time the victim pulled a hammer from his pocket and threw it at Sanders.
Sanders then struck the victim with an unknown blunt object until he blacked out, then grabbed the hammer and fled the scene, witnesses told officers.
The victim was taken to Colleton Medical Center for treatment. When he recovered, he identified one of the suspects as Sanders, a press release states.
Sanders is charged with attempted murder.
Anyone with information about Sanders or the incident should contact Walterboro Public Safety at (843) 782-1030 or (843) 549-1811.

As for the cruise itself this is the worst cruise we have been on. Heard this from many of the cruisers on board. The long lines to board (2hrs),the service and entertainment left much to be desired. The entertainment is definitely lacking in all areas and need revamping. The first night for comedy was really bad. Everyone on the ship was talking about how bad the guy was. Later during the week another comedian was brought on that was much better. The best entertainment of the whole cruise was the magician and the singers in the main lobby. Also, the game shows etc were not conducted very well by the crew members. When you only have maybe 20 - 30 people show and then most of them start leaving within 15 minutes of the start then you should know that something is wrong. The crew themselves were not very enthusiastic. The best game show was the married game show.
The food was very bland and not as well prepared as on other cruises. There was a limited variety. I did not see much in the way of a balance meal during lunch. Limited selection of vegetables or starches to chose from to go with the many choices of meats. Mid night buffet is a Mexican buffet which is not a good choose considering the time (11:30 P.M.). The dinner service was definitely lacking. We did the any time dining which may have made the difference. Our orders were not right several times and the servers did not provide good service. Not as attentive as to what we are accustomed too. But this may be because we did not have a set dining time and table. We have done other cruises with anytime dining and gotten much better service.
Key West - Great town did the hop on hop off city tour with Butterfly museum. Very good tour.
Free Port - Not much there. Did not do a tour. Walked around the shop at the port. Lots of the same souvenir junk.
Nassau - Did a tour of Atlantis and the market. The tour was worth it. May want to consider taking a taxing over and buying tour ticket on site.
In short, unless Carnival improves on their service I would not suggest this cruise.

"Please Slow Drively." It's a sign posted outside of a preschool, on private property in Auburn, California."My first impression was that she got ripped off, she bought a sign and they miss printed it and then they just pawned it off on her anyway."But in a statement--the property owner said, not so fast. The sign is misspelled intentionally.
She said quote "The whimsical sign, which reads "PLEASE SLOW DRIVELY" was a gift to the school to be used as a part of its campaign to get drivers to slow down when they pass by the school."
We showed a picture of the sign to people in the area."I don't think it'll get people to slow down. I don't think it's gonna work.""People will slow down to read it and try to figure out what it says." Not everyone who drove by the sign noted the misspelled word. "Please drive slowly is the only sign I see.""Read it again.""hahahah."The property owner said since posting the sign she's noticed that drivers have begun to DRIVE SLOWLY--or should we say SLOW DRIVELY. But this mandolin player says if a misspelled sign is what it takes to get people to slow down the world must be moving too fast. "If there's a school we should keep our morals on the line, and slow down for the youth that might be wasted yet." A song about a sign that certainly got our attention.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSBrockovich Takes Issue With Tomblin Q&A On Water Concerns
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Jan. 19, 2014 9:15 PM EST
Updated: Jan. 20, 2014 2:40 AM EST
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (Heath Harrison) -- Environmental activist Erin Brockovich is taking issue with a community conference call from Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin's office regarding reports of skin irritations after using West Virginia American Water following the lifting of a do-not-use order.
Numerous people have stated they have experienced skin rashes and burning after bathing in the water once it was deemed safe.
On Saturday, Tomblin's office conducted a community conference call with West Virginia Commissioner for the Bureau of Public Health Letitia Tierney and Major General James A. Hoyer of the National Guard to address concerns over the water crisis.
Tomblin's office issued a Q&A list to address concerns for those using the water. One of the questions addressed the reports of skin irritations.
"We've been monitoring everyone who has presented to the hospital, and what they've been complaining of is not a burn like you and I would think of as a burn," the Q&A read. "Some doctors have described it as a 'solar burn' which is similar to a sunburn. Basically, it's red skin. Everyone has different sensitivities and as we move through the flushing process, sediment has been stirred up from your hot water tank and the pipes. Some sediment may be coming through the shower that you don't even see. Because everyone has different sensitivities, some may be experiencing this and some may not.
Brockovich took issue with the explanation.
"To dismiss the people's reactions, as nothing more than as sunburn is reckless," Brockovich said in a post other office's Facebook page on Sunday. "We are not lab rats. You do not know nor should you try to convince the people that what they see, what they feel and what they experience isn't real, in order to cover your own (expletive)! How dismissive, and the people suffer because of agency and political decision that were inappropriate, which resulted in delivering them tainted water!"

While the Chicago Bulls cleared Luol Deng to participate in the 2012 London Olympics, a previous back injury means his contract is not covered by the NBA's insurance for the Olympics. Instead, his Great Britain team will cover the cost of Deng's Olympic insurance policy.
The policy, which could cost Great Britain basketball upwards of $470,000, will insure the $27 million remaining on Deng's contract with the Bulls. When Deng played for Great Britian in the 2008 European Championship qualifying, British Basketball paid more than $300,000 to insure him.
Even with an insurance policy, Great Britain could still be on the hook for millions of dollars if Deng suffered a career-ending injury. Great Britain's performance director Chris Spice told Rob Dugdale of BBC Sport Great Britain could owe the Bulls more than $15 million.
The first quote was more than that [£300,000] but we're trying to get it down," said Spice. "Basically, if he permanently put himself out of action, we'd have to be able to pay the Bulls £10m.
As the host country, Great Britain was given one of 12 spots in the Olympic basketball bracket. The Olympic basketball tournament begins on July 28, with the gold medal game scheduled for August 12.

Light Fantastic: 8 Ways to Get a Twinkle On
I heard a rhythmic clicking as I lay in my bed and knew immediately the source of the light show down the hall. Our 4-year-old son Elliot had found the remote for the Christmas tree lights yet again. In our house, for our son, this holiday is all about the lights. I thought my daughter might be more like me, neutral about the use of twinkle lights. But on a backyard campout last summer I caught her staring up, mesmerized, and gesturing as she softly sang her favorite song: "Twinkle, twinkle..." Oh well, if you can't beat 'em...
1. Dancing with the Stars
Her pirouettes and leaps will look even more spectacular when you snip a hole in the seam of her tutu and feed a strand of battery-operated lights around the hemline. Poke cable ties (like heavier versions of trash bag ties) through the netting just below the waistband, wrap them around
the battery pack, back through the netting, and secure.
Warm white battery-operated LED light string, $15, environmentallights.com | Mini cable ties, $2 for 100 cabletiesplus.com
2. Hanging Around
Suspend a canopy from a hook mounted in the ceiling, drape it with lights, and invite a friend to the clubhouse. To arrange the lights, grasp one 17 1/2-foot strand at a time near the middle and hang
it from the hook at the center point, letting the lights fall over the canopy front to back, side to side, then diagonally, like the spokes of a wheel.
3 (17 1/2 foot) strands of 50 Bridal Lights, $7 each, acmoore.com
3. Walk This Way
If the kids are so excited about all those presents they can't walk a straight line, arrange parallel strands of rope lights from the bedroom door to the gift pile (while they're sleeping) to show them the way.
Pearl white rope lights in 18-foot lengths, $20 each, christmaslightsetc.com
4. Alert the Paparazzi
Need a festive backfrop for your holiday
card photos? Hang some net lights on the wall with removable hooks (pushpins or tape work too) and say cheese. Or set your camera on a tripod and give party guests the remote control for spontaneous shots.
Net lights, $18 and up, christmaslightsetc.com | 3M medium utility hooks, $4, officedepot.com
5. In the Mood
Need a public display of affection? Call attention to the mistletoe by suspending it from a Starlight Spehere -- then pucker up.
7 1/2-inch Twinkling Starlight Sphere, $20, noveltylights.com
6. Tied Up with Bling
Gussy up a special gift by criss-crossing a few twinkly necklaces in place around a
box or on top of ribbon. Use tape to attach the necklaces where they meet on the underside, or to secure any extra wire.
Lotsa Lites! Flashing Light Bulbs Necklace (Holiday or Snowflakes), $8, amazon.com
7. Fauxplace
All those lights from last year that you can't untangle? Arrange them artfully in the fireplace, plug them in, and sit back and sip some eggnog while your neighbor stokes his fire.
8. Spot Light
Let your dog lead the way. Attach battery-operated lights to her collar with cable ties and wind the lights around her leash, gently tying the end in a knot below the leash's handle. (Make sure she can't gnaw on the battery pack.)
Warm white battery-operated LED light string, $15, environmentallights.com | Mini cable ties, $2 for 100 cabletiesplus.com, or use twist ties from trash bags or bread bags

Song inspired by Neelix and Kes
When I first watched the VOY pilot and saw Neelix and Kes tell Captain Janeway they wanted to join the crew and head for Earth, I picked up a guitar in search of a song about refugees from other planets who had heard nothing but nice things about Earth and wanted to immigrate. The result is song titled Legend Of The Planet Earth.
I used MIDI files (because of the small file size) of this and nine other songs I teased out of a guitar or piano as wake-up music for the alarm function of my LCARS system starting in about 2001. That function can be set for MP3 or voice instead, so I suspect most users pay little attention to my songs. And this is the only one that's Trek-related. Here's a new recording I made. I may put it on YouTube eventually, but I asked my sister to take a crack at it in the hopes that she can sing it better.
I made a video showing the notes and lyrics as the song progresses, and if I can get a better recording it will be easy to drop that right into the video. This is also good practice for making a demo of my LCARS system to put on YouTube, which is quite a bit more work but not as much as I thought, since making this little song video gave me an idea for an easier way to put that together. This was my first attempt to make a video. So I learned a few things.
The idealized vision of Earth held by aliens who have never been here may seem overreaching in the song but perhaps pretty close to the overall impression of the Trek version of 24th-century Earth, with weather control, a cleaned-up natural environment, elimination of poverty, replicators, transporters, etc.
Here it is in storage with the files for my Web site. This link should activate it.

Well, I guess no replies means nobody's interested, but anyway I finally got around to setting up the LCARS 24 YouTube channel. All that's on it for now is the above-mentioned song and two others from the alarm-clock function of the LCARS standby screen, which is a full-screen clock and calendar wrapped in LCARS brackets. But this is leading up to making demos of my LCARS system in action.
LCARS 24 YouTube channel
And, I haven't tried it, but I read a blog claiming that the regular version of LCARS 24 works fine in the DOS box of Windows 7. I did make a Windows version, but it doesn't have all the features of the regular version and is really only supposed to run on XP, although I saw it work on one Vista machine.

UFC 166 saw Gilbert Melendez take on Diego Sanchez in a lightweight contest as part of the pay-per-view main card. The action packed bout earned a well deserved Fight of the Night honors and had Joe Rogan claiming it was best war he has ever seen in his life.
For most of the fight, the former Strikeforce champion used his boxing to completely pick apart and dominate Sanchez. He was able to drop and hurt his opponent multiple times, leaving a really deep gash on Diego's eyebrow that made it a really bloody contest. Like most of his bouts though, Diego Sanchez never let up as he showcased his trademark tenacity and determination to overcome technical deficiencies he had against a much better opponent.
Bloody and battered for majority of the fight, Sanchez just came out like a mad man in the third round as he ate punches just to land some of his own. To the delight of the crowd, he managed to land a huge uppercut that dropped Melendez and he rushed in to try and finish. Gilbert was able to survive though, and the two once again engaged in a firefight on the last seconds until the bell rang. It was truly an entertaining bout that had the crowd went crazy, and while Sanchez came close to securing an upset in the third, he wasn't able to do enough to take the victory. The final result: Gilbert Melendez def. Diego Sanchez by Decision (Unanimous, 29-28, 30-27, 29-28)
What was the high point?
The high point was definitely Diego Sanchez knocking down Melendez during the third after taking a beating during most of the contest. It looked like he clearly didn't have a chance against Gilbert, but "The Dream" displayed that heart he's known for and just went for it, leading to one of the more entertaining bouts this year.
What was the low point?
On the fight itself? Nothing. Diego, as always, made sure it was entertaining from bell to bell. The low point for me though, was the post-fight interview which had Diego slurring badly. He gets into all these wars against guys who are more technical than him, and while he always 'brings it', it makes me worry about his long term health with the accumulation of damage he takes.
Where do they go from here?
Melendez is looking for another title shot, but I personally don't think one win over Sanchez should earn him that. A bout against T.J. Grant for the next shot at Pettis' title seems more appealing.
Diego on the other hand, seems to have found a better way to make the lightweight limit, so he will likely take on another contender soon. Maybe a bout against Nate Diaz could be interesting.
Watch it now, later, or never?
Now. I may not agree with all the hyperbole Joe Rogan spat out about this being the absolute best fight he has ever seen in his life, but it truly is a must watch, and is one of the more entertaining contests of the year.

NexGEN SolarPads
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, 2008 - $19,000
Solar power has long been seen as a viable alternative to fossil fuel-based power, but has remained too expensive to force a trend in the residential market, where outfitting your home with photovoltaic panels can cost up to $40,000. Current panels are themselves non-sustainable: they require a large amount of energy to manufacture, and the materials are non-recyclable.
This E-Team is looking to solve both problems with SolarPads, an inexpensive, recyclable photovoltaic panel. The design uses compound parabolic concentrators to widen the panel's range and increase its concentration ratio, which means that fewer photovoltaic cells need to be used, lowering the cost. It also uses an inflatable wedge system that allows the panel to rotate to a position closest to the sun. Overall, the team is aiming for a panel that is 90% cheaper than similar solar panels.

Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The world population reached 7 billion recently and food is still a rare commodity for about 20% of the citizens live below global hunger index (GHI). Global food production is at all time high but problems surrounding pre- and post-harvest, storage and distribution mute such achievements. However, it is paradoxical where world is striving to provide food security to all, the 80% who consume food more than they need suffer from poor health and debilitating diseases. Food, as we all know, is an integral part of staying alive, but it also plays a significant role in keeping one healthy with a better quality of life. For example, world population of all age groups suffers from obesity and type-2 diabetes. Adult diabetes, type-2 diabetes, is one of the leading killers in the developed, developing and under-developed countries alike. The most significant reason for the rise in diabetes is increased consumption of food with sedentary life style leading to obesity. In almost all cases, obesity leads to type-2 diabetes.
The consumption of phytochemicals including flavones, isoflavones, tannins, anthocyanins, betacyanins, chlorophyll, carotenoids, terpenoids, phytosterols, long-chain fatty acids and shorter-length polysaccharides as dietary ingredients have positive impact on the overall wellbeing and quality of life. This has been demonstrated by researchers around the world by primarily using a series of in vitro bioassays. Food and health are synonymous these days to many even in countries with less food security. This is because of the belief that daily consumption of functional food, food containing beneficial bioactive natural products, delivers an effective dose of such non-nutritional components with potential to ameliorate debilitating diseases including cancer, metabolic syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. Fruits, vegetables, berries and other generally regarded as safe (GRAS) plants play an important role in filling this space occupied by functional foods.
Consumption of agricultural products with adequate amounts of bioactives will aid in the fight against obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory diseases and Alzheimer's disease. Food security policy being enacted by governments should consider agricultural products that provide not only conventional nutrition but also functional food constituents in order to improve health and quality of life of their citizens.

PCCC: 300,000+ GOTV calls made in Wisconsin
by Jason Williams, Sun Aug 07, 2011 at 06:42:20 PM EDT
Progressive Change Campaign Committee, via email:
With less than 48 hours until the Wisconsin recall elections, we wanted to send a Special Report about what Progressive Change Campaign Committee members contributed to this historic effort so far:
- 316,165 calls to voters made by thousands of national volunteers
- 116,755 grassroots donations toward our ads and activism
- 1,721 local volunteer shifts by Wisconsin PCCC members
- 5 powerful TV ads airing 17,333 times -- praised as some of the best ads in politics
- Over $2 million spent in the Wisconsin fight by PCCC and our partners at Democracy for America
If we win Tuesday, this victory will belong to you -- and to all working families who are fighting back against the corporate, Republican machine.
One of the strongests ads running now (PCCC, DFA Wisconsin) features a WI Republican voter declaring we need someone on our side, and internal polling looks promising. But Kevin Drum stresses this one will be a fight to the final vote:
One of the few available indicators of how the turnout will look [this] week was the re-election victory of Democrat Dave Hansen in mid-July, the first general recall election of the summer. Hansen cruised to victory, and the turnout neared 31,000—a figure suggesting an energized electorate in Hansen's Green Bay-area district. So the big question is: Can Democrats replicate that energy in six districts scattered throughout the state? Their hopes of snatching back the majority in the Wisconsin senate depend on it.
PCCC has launched a final call out the vote campaign. ActBlue page here. While national politics have been a disappointment, the fight for families, workers, and the middle class in Wisconsin against Scott Walker and his masters is an opportunity to make history.
The outcome will ripple, setting the stage in every state heading into the 2012 campaigns.

Press Release From Spokane County Medical Examiner's Office:
SPOKANE COUNTY, April 3, 2013 – The Spokane County Medical Examiner's Office has finalized
the cause and manner of death for Christopher
James Parker. Parker died on February 24, 2013 and the cause of death has been identified as methamphetamine toxicity.
Parker also suffered from diabetes and due to the physiologic effects and stress of being restrained, his death is being classified as a homicide.
Press Release From Spokane Investigative Regional Response Team:
SPOKANE, Wash. - The Spokane County Medical Examiner made positive identification of the individual who died yesterday at the Spokane County Jail, 33 year old Christopher James Parker. An autopsy was performed today and the results are pending.
The SIRR Team has completed all interviews of jail staff involved in the incident. Detectives also made attempts to contact witnesses and relatives in the area where Parker was contacted by the Spokane Police Department early Sunday morning after 911 was called. Video from the jail's booking area has been retrieved by detectives and will be included in the investigation. The Washington State Patrol will be the managing agency for this incident.
The SIRR team is composed of members of the Washington State Patrol, Spokane County Sheriff's Office and the Spokane Police Department.
UPDATE: The Spokane County Medical Examiner's Office has confirmed the identity of the man who died on February 24, 2013 in the Spokane County Jail. He's 33-year old Christopher James Parker.
SPOKANE, Wash. - The investigation into a death at the Spokane County Jail continues, and Washington State Troopers told KHQ Sunday, it appears the victim was high on meth at the time of the incident.
Troopers say just after 3:00am, 911 dispatchers received a call from a man who was not making sense. He told dispatchers he had ingested methamphetamine and thought someone was trying to harm him. The dispatcher sent over a Spokane Police Officer to the 2100 block of W. 4th to check on the man.
When police arrived, the man again told them he had been using meth and was a diabetic. Police called for medics to evaluate him. While being treated, dispatch informed the police officer that the man also had an arrest warrant. After being cleared by medics, he was taken to jail on the outstanding warrant.
While in the booking process, the man became uncooperative. Spokane County Corrections Deputies used force, including a TASER to gain control of the man who was then placed in a restraint chair. a short time after being placed in the chair, the man lost consciousness. Deputies and medical staff immediately began CPR and first aid, but were unable to revive the man. He was later pronounced dead.
The Critical Incident Protocol has been invoked and the Spokane Investigative Regional Response Team is currently conducting the investigation. The Washington State Patrol will be the managing agency for the incident. An autopsy has been scheduled for Monday.

Town manager responds to General Plan update concerns

This is very well written. Maybe it will answer some of the inaccurate lies being spread. This doesn't sound like it will turn Danville into Fremont. Section 8 housing is not being made MANDATORY. The idea is not to bus in "those" people that don't belong here. Has anyone ever looked at the 74 unit senior housing on Laurel Drive? What a great example of affordable housing. It transformed the neighborhood and filled a need. Yes, it is low income. Maybe some of your parents live there and enjoy being able to walk to town. Being a property owner on the same street, I appreciate that development, and trust and expect that the Town planners will continue approving quality projects like this.
So, as far as nine acres transforming Danville into a crime ridden slum, that is not going to happen. If you like the Town now, why do you think the current planning regime will change it into "Fremont"? The same planners have worked for the town since its inception in many cases. They have done okay to this point, and I expect that to remain the same.
on Jan 17, 2013 at 8:29 am
One little step, then another little step, all with frightening patience...
on Jan 17, 2013 at 9:49 am
Don is wrong. This fight is not about affordable housing and the perceived prejudices that may be behind that. This fight is about preserving open space and responsible development. It's about following the law - Measure S - and the will of the people - the 70+% of the voters that voted for Measure S. Our Town Council has systematically used the 2030 General Plan to gut the use of Measure S. And there are a lot of people in our town that don't want to see that happen. They just want their right to vote on development upheld. So it's great that Mr. Calabrigo writes this letter but it also sidesteps the issue. And his points don't add up. If ABAG only requires designating land for development, why does the Town so eagerly want to gut Measure S so that agricultural land can be developed? Why stand in the way of a Measure S vote on projects like Elworthy Ranch, SummerHill? Please stop telling us about what a great job the town has done while trying to vilify opposing views and listen to what we want - a Measure S vote!

(WMC-TV) - A Mid-South community is on edge following three robberies in the past week. The most recent robbery happened Monday night at a BP gas station in Whiteville, Tennessee, and it was all caught on camera.
Police are hoping someone will recognize the masked man from the store's surveillance video. The suspect, who was dressed in black, walked in with a bandanna and a Spider-Man backpack. He pulled out a gun, fired a round of ammo, and took all of the cash from the cash register.
"You hear about this all the time in Memphis but never think it'll happen in a small town like this," said Whiteville resident Darian Crisp.
The armed robbery happened Monday around 10:45 p.m. at the BP on Highway 64.
Whiteville police say once the man took the cash, he hopped back over the counter, and took off in a field behind the gas station.
Police are not sure whether the masked suspect lives in the area.
"Folks normally are just hometown people," said Chief Steve Stanley, Whiteville Police Department. "Everybody minds their business and goes about their way."
Whiteville police say this robbery is the third of its kind in just one week.
Last week, someone did around $10,000 worth of damage to the Whiteville Food Mart.
Police are not sure if that suspect is the same one who robbed the BP store.
"I'm just thankful to God I didn't stop in here last night on my way home as this was going on," said Crisp. "I stopped here today to get gas. I stop here everyday before I go to work."
Whiteville police say they will be stopping every car that comes through town. They will also be saturating certain areas and following all leads.
They say they hope this suspect's Spider-Man backpack will be a key piece of evidence to solving the crime.
If you recognize the man in the surveillance video, call the Hardeman County Sheriff's Department at 1-731-658-3971. You can also email information to firstname.lastname@example.com.
The City of Whiteville is offering a $2,500 reward for information on the robbery suspect.

TOULOUSE, France (AP) -- A gunman has opened fire in front of a Jewish school in a southwest French city killing several people, the Toulouse prosecutor said Monday.
Michel Valet told The Associated Press that there were "several dead" in the morning incident at the school in Toulouse. He said it was unclear whether the victims were children. French media have reported up to three dead, including two children. but this could not immediately be independently confirmed.
The shooter drove away on a scooter, a national police official in Paris said. The official did not wish to be named in line with departmental rules.
Police cordoned off the private school in the northeast of Toulouse, and some two hours after the shooting children were still in the school.
President Nicolas Sarkozy accompanied by Richard Prasquier, the president of CRIF, the umbrella group representing Jewish organizations, were heading to the site of the private school, the president's office and CRIF said.
The shooting occurred about 8:10 a.m. just ahead of the start of classes in most schools.
The shooting happened in the same area where a gunman on a motorbike opened fire on three uniformed paratroopers at a bank machine Thursday, killing two and critically wounding the other. The attack in the town of Montauban occurred not far from the soldiers' barracks. Four days earlier, a gunman on a motorbike shot and killed another paratrooper in Toulouse, about 50 kilometers (30 miles) away.
Authorities said at the time that forensic analysis showed that the same weapon was used in the shootings in Montauban and Toulouse.
It was not immediately clear if all three shootings are related.

MALONE — A Malone man pleaded not guilty to a 10-count grand-jury indictment for allegedly raping, menacing and choking his former girlfriend.
Jorge Rosario, 41, pleaded not guilty in Franklin County Court to a variety of felony charges, including first-degree rape; first-degree burglary; first-degree reckless endangerment; first-degree unlawful imprisonment; first-degree criminal contempt; and first-degree criminal sex act.
Misdemeanor charges against him are: second-degree criminal contempt; second-degree menacing; and criminal obstruction of breathing. And he is charged with second-degree aggravated harassment, a violation.
The alleged victim is in law enforcement in Clinton County and reportedly met him through her work.
Malone Village Police said Rosario broke into the woman's apartment on Webster Street, choked her and forced her to have sex against her will.
He is also accused of preventing her from leaving when she wanted to do so, for brandishing a gun during the confrontation and for making threatening telephone calls.
Rosario was arraigned before Clinton County and Acting Franklin County Court Judge Patrick McGill, pleaded not guilty and was taken to Franklin County Jail in lieu of $50,000 cash bail or $100,000 insurance bond.
He remained in jail on Friday afternoon.
A conference is scheduled for Tuesday in Franklin County Court.
