Journalists — Iranians and Westerners — share their firsthand experiences as they write about the challenges they confront in gathering and distributing news and information about Iran and its people. Their words and images offer a rare blend of insights about journalists' lives and work in Iran. In the fifth part of our 21st Century Muckrakers series about investigative and watchdog reporting, the focus turns to coverage of issues involving public health, safety and trust. And in Words & Reflections, essays touch on objectivity, religion, blogging, Ireland and post 9/11 America. – Melissa Ludtke, Editor
Ahead of the 25th anniversary of Tiananmen Square, Nieman Reports takes an in-depth look at The State of Journalism in China and what a number of reporters are doing to cope with tight restrictions. As Chinese officials continue to block websites from around the world, jam social media postings and delete sensitive online information, domestic journalists in China are seeking ways to circumvent censors. Those who go too far risk being fired or even arrested, while foreign journalists face various forms of government intimidation and visa denials.

Welcome to the Department of English at Old Dominion University. Located in the Batten Arts and Letters building on the Norfolk campus, the English department has nearly 50 full-time and approximately 75 part-time faculty and graduate teaching assistants, who teach a variety of undergraduate and graduate courses in a number of different emphases. With over 300 undergraduate and 150 graduate majors, English is one of the largest, most dynamic departments on campus.
As its core mission, the English department focuses on superior teaching. Members of our department win teaching awards nearly every year, from Most Inspiring (selected by students with the highest grade point averages in the colleges), the Stern award (one award yearly to the best teacher in the College of Arts and Letters), the Teaching with Technology Award, the Tonelson Award (one award yearly to the best teacher in the University), to the SCHEV award (an annual award given to eleven faculty members from across the Commonwealth of Virginia). Our faculty members encourage productive interaction both in and out of the classroom; in addition, many have integrated computer technology with instruction so that teaching has become an ongoing process. And because the department has hired many new people in the last few years, we have great energy and enthusiasm for the task of teaching.
In conjunction with teaching, we have an active program of research and writing. All of our tenure-track faculty are engaged in projects that lead to publication or dissemination in other forms. From books of poetry, memoir, and fiction to mixed media film/video productions and academic conference papers, or from full-length academic books in gender studies, rhetoric, electronic and technical writing, journalism, and early American literature to articles on a variety of topics, essays, reviews, short stories, and poems, our teacher-researchers stay active on many fronts. Much of what enlivens us as teachers comes from the energy created in sharing our research with our students.
What gives us a constant sense of renewal and focus, though, is the community of students who take our courses. Whether they are individuals from the mountains of western Virginia taking a televised course in public relations or a class in Virginia Beach studying cross-cultural communication or a seminar in Norfolk delving the mysteries of a great writer, our students bring to the classroom or the computer screen or the microphone a rich variety of life experiences that we hope can be engaged and made richer by interaction with English department faculty.
In addition to classroom experiences, students also benefit from opportunities to learn other kinds of skills. Through the Career Advantage Program at Old Dominion, the English department routinely sends many undergraduate and graduate English majors on internships with area businesses and institutions. Whether they are with a newspaper, a major corporation, or a library, these internships can be applied as credit toward bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degrees. In addition, many of our students earn teaching certification along with their English degree and use their internship time for practice teaching. English majors at Old Dominion can enjoy the courses for themselves, but also know that they can shape a curriculum with practical application.
For bachelor's degree holders who want to go further, we have a number of graduate programs. Our Master of Fine Arts program in Creative Writing offers a terminal degree in that area. A highly selective course of study, the M.F.A. enables students to take workshops in their chosen specialty as well as courses in theory and literature. The Master of Arts in Applied Linguistics can be used as preparation to teach English as a Second Language or as a stepping-stone to doctoral work at other institutions. The M.A. in English engages students either in Literature, Professional Writing, Composition and Rhetoric, or Teaching. A number of our master's-level students are teachers or other jobholders who need the degree for advancement at their place of employment. At the same time, the M.A. in English degree can be used as a springboard to Ph.D. work. Each year, many of our M.A. degree-earners win scholarships or assistantships at doctoral institutions. Finally, the department offers the Ph.D. in English to selected students with an earned M.A. and outstanding academic qualifications. This new program prepares its graduates to compete for university academic and other professional positions.
In short, the English department at Old Dominion University has the human resources, degree programs, and internship opportunities to suit a broad range of interests. We are an academic department; standards of performance are high. Yet we also recognize the world in which we live and work to assist students in making their degree experience pay off in many ways. Please take a few moments to review the rest of the Web site. If you are interested in further information on, feel free to contact me or the people listed in any of the homepage articles.
With best wishes,
Dana Heller, Chair

Union Head
The Real Poop
There have been the best of times; there have been the worst of times in this gig. You read The Grapes of Wrath when you were 12 and Ma and Pa Joad's struggles have never left you. You weren't trying to get rich, not for yourself. You just wanted your brothers and sisters to have a decent life - to not have to suffer abuses from The Man. You wanted a fair shake.
As union head, your job is to aggregate the working efforts of your constituents/ partners/ fellow union members to use "collective bargaining," a fancy word for "my side versus your side." That way, when The Man says your peeps have to make $9 an hour instead of the $15 an hour you feel they deserve, you have a way to fight back.
And the world has not been kind to the working man, at least it hasn't been for centuries - maybe even millenia.
The working man used to be a relatively uneducated but well-meaning and hard-working man (and yes, it was a man, not a woman for a vastly long time), who wanted to provide food and shelter and clothing and a few toys for his family. He wanted to protect them from the evil elements in the world and "give them a nice life."
But the individual man was dissed - by King, countrymen, and marauders who came to town every decade or three. The individual man had few rights and was really a projectile of the wealthy, the empowered.
Until the 20th century. At least in the United States. A bunch of things changed, the most important of which was the shift in global economies to manufacturing over farming; that is, the countries who dominated the world in the 20th century built stuff, rather than grew stuff. Namely, the car. (They tried growing cars for a while, but when they planted the fuzzy dice, surprisingly little would happen.)
The Model T was the first big manufactured product that had legs (not literally) and was globally exported from the United States. It was the standard in cars for a decade and made Henry Ford a billionaire. Henry tussled with unions - he wanted to pay the $9 an hour; his workers wanted $15 an hour (inflation adjusted, of course). Henry's push however, was that men were machines and he wanted to treat them as such, narrowing their duties and refining their physical movements until they were no more than automatons.
Then one day a group of men (at this point it was still pretty much only men who were agitatin') said, "there's gotta be a better way." And United Auto Workers (UAW) was formed.
Fast forward - go past strikes that assaulted corporate America in the middle part of the 20th century, and recall that in a strike, workers simply refused to work. They ... just... sit. No violence. No shoving. Just a whole lotta nothing.
In the era of peach-picking Joads, The Man was easily able to find others who would pick peaches within a few hours so the Joads were easily replaced and the famished labor supply was seemingly endless. But in a boom economy where everyone in France, Italy, Spain, England and beyond all wanted American cars, things weren't so simple - a car was hard to make. Or at least harder to make than a picked peach.
So unions struck and set an example and, over time, a huge percentage of the American work force was Union.
It was almost a game - one union looked over its shoulder at the work contract that the other union "won" in negotiations against the owners of the business and said, "Hey, gimme somma that."
So pay went up. And up. And up. Today, many unskilled laborers (those who didn't read Shmoop, didn't study at night, didn't graduate high school) earn $30 an hour or more - guaranteed. Not only did unions come to dominate the manufacturing sector of corporate America, they dominated - and still do - the public employee world. That is, the people at TSA (at the airport/ the gal who checks you in), the people at the DMV, school teachers, the postal workers and so on... they're all union. They all threatened strikes at one point or another and the government raised their pay and benefits.
They raised 'em high. So high, in fact, that in many cases the benefits and pay and pension obligations are now bankrupting the states that made those deals.
Couple that trend with the fact that the United States is no longer the "powerhouse" in making cars - Japan, Germany and Korea are now major players. The US isn't growing like it used to be. The world is competitive - and simply put, other countries pay their laborers a lot less, or at least differently, from how the US pays its laborers.
So the era of "great unions" appears to be over. Union membership is shrinking - and it's not just the UAW. Unions were a very large part of the newspaper industry, for example. But the internet came along, filled with bloggers who opine for free(ish), and almost the entire industry went from flush to nearly bankrupt in 25 years.
So you as Union Head now have a brutal vice inside of which you live. If you push hard for union contracts to be better, in many cases, you will bankrupt your employers and then everyone is out of a job. Or you'll piss them off Wal-Mart style (Wal-Mart famously hates unions; they won't deal with them and in a number of cases, they have simply closed their stores when the local workers tried to organize unions).
In corporate America, the reality for many sectors is that the world can't afford unions any more - that is, the US is a high cost labor area and if you are a consumer, why would you pay $612 for a printer made in Chicago over the exact same printer made in China for $316?
In public sector America, the union challenges you've reviewed have been different; there, the "revenues" don't come from selling printer units - they come from taxes. And in many areas, taxes are so high that they are changing behavior. In theory, if the government taxed 100% of your earnings above $100,000, you'd work during the year to make that much; then just stop working in September if you'd hit your number. Why work more? The taxes would just take away everything you'd have worked for.
Well, in the proposals around the 2012 Obama campaign, the rich in California, New York and other high tax states will be paying about 65% marginal tax, meaning that for every dollar they earn over $250,000, the proposals revolve around those people keeping only 35 cents on each dollar. So it's a fair question to ask: "why bother working more?" And that's bad for the people that the rich would employ - their spending likely reduces and... bad things happen to the economy.
The taxes issue assaults public workers directly who work for states rather than the federal government. The press has been vociferous in covering the near-bankruptcy status of California. Bad deals cut with unions by the government are blamed for much of the states' woes. And many wealthy people are simply moving out - it means that tax revenues go down a bunch and the state unions struggle further.
So... you're the union head. You have to figure out what to do. You're just trying to get your fair share and do right by the people who have elected you to… optimize. Still happy you took this gig?

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. -- The Bloomington Police Department's Interim Police Chief, R.T. Finney, will be leaving September 27 after serving the department for the last six months.
City officials said a search committee for the new chief has reviewed six candidates over the last month, and they have now narrowed it down to one.
Bloomington Mayor Tari Renner added that City Manager David Hales will most likely make the announcement next week.
Finney, who did not apply for the position, said it will be a smooth transition for whoever gets the job.
"I am very confident that whoever is picked, the current command staff will work with that person and they will go forward with the projects that the city wants. They will continue the fine work the department has done," Finney said.
Finney said he is considering another interim police chief position in Monticello once he completes his final two weeks in Bloomington.

Coyotes beat Flames 3-2 on Doan's 350th NHL goal
Originally published: Mar 15, 2014 - 9:50 pm
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Shane Doan scored his 350th career goal on one of Phoenix's six third-period power plays and the Coyotes went on to beat the Calgary Flames 3-2 on Saturday night.
Chris Summers got his first NHL goal and Rob Klinkhammer also scored to put Phoenix up 2-0 after one period. Calgary got power-play goals from Curtis Glencross and Mikael Backlund to tie it at 2 after two.
After a frustrating series of power plays, Rahim Vrbata rocketed a shot toward the net and Doan deflected it past Joni Ortio for the deciding goal with 11:11 to play.
The Coyotes pulled into a tie with the Western Conference's No. 8 team Dallas with 75 points, but the Stars have played two fewer games and hold the tiebreaker.

Truven Top 100 Hospital Scores Measure 'Leadership Impact'
Emphasizing that this year's Truven Health Analytics 100 Top Hospitals list "is not an advertising scheme," senior vice president Jean Chenoweth says the 2013 winners list reflects "a balance scorecard," that keeps "all the goals and mission of the whole organization in mind."
This year the top hospitals list, formerly published as the Thomson Reuters Top 100 Hospitals, gives equal weight to 9 elements of hospital performance:
- Risk-adjusted in-hospital mortality
- Risk-adjusted complications
- Risk-adjusted patient safety
- Core measures
- Severity-adjusted average length of stay
- Case-mix and wage-adjusted inpatient expense per discharge
- Adjusted operating profit margin
- Patient experience scores as measured by the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS)
- The ninth element in the algorithm combines a hospital's performance in 30-day readmission rates and 30-day mortality rates for patients with heart attack, heart failure and pneumonia.
Chenoweth emphasized that the Truven list is different than other scorecards "because number one, it is not an advertising scheme," and details of how each hospital has been ranked are not made available to consumers.
Rather, it is designed to measure "the impact of hospital leaders, and what they emphasize within their organizations. It's not just a one-year snapshot but a more long-term picture. We're measuring the impact of leadership in driving improvement forward."

I just bought a brand new car, and it was pretty expensive. I paid 45,000 dollars for the car, which is probably a good bit more than I should have spent on the car, but I really like it, and I hope to keep it for a long time. Anyway, when I called my car insurance company up after purchasing the car, they gave me a quote for coverage on the new car that was much too high. As such, I am looking for the best auto insurance policy I can find for my new car, and I am going to have to find a new provider of car insurance, so that I will be able to get that car insurance at a reasonable rate.
I am not looking for fairly extensive car insurance, due to the fact that I just bought this car. I want to make sure that it will be completely covered, and regardless of what sort of type of damage might befall it, it will be covered under pretty much any sort of circumstances. I do not want to end up a situation where my brand new car gets damaged, and the damage is not covered by the insurance policy.
Even though I am going to try to get a fairly extensive amount of coverage for the car, I do not want to pay more than necessary in order to get that level of car insurance coverage. I do not know where I will be ale to find the best rates for the type of auto insurance I am looking for, but I will search the web thoroughly for quotes from different companies. It would actually be nice to find some sort of site where I could compare the rates that different companies offer in a direct manner.

They work really good. Look ok. Fits in my bark busters with only minor touching on the clutch side. The clutch side rubber wore down after 1/2 a season to just rubber, just wore the ribs off, still grip slightly more than metal ones. Riding gloves less using 2 finger on the clutch it rubs on my 3rd finger and leaves a little gray mark from the aluminum. Nice especially for the price!Read All Reviews

In the years since CEO Steve Ballmer's infamous "developers, developers, developers" battle cry, Microsoft's relationship with developers has been a vital component of the company's strategy. If early developer enthusiasm is any indication, Microsoft appears to have done well with Windows 8.
Developer response to Windows 8 has been very positive in the wake of last week's Build developer conference, with many coders expressing eagerness to try out the upcoming OS. Foremost on their minds is the operating system's emphasis on touch-based interactions, a move that many believe could give Microsoft a much-needed shot in the arm in the tablet computing space.
[ See InfoWorld's Windows 8 preview visual tour. | Galen Gruman outlines how Microsoft may finally be making Windows winners. | Keep up to speed on the key Microsoft news and insights with InfoWorld's Technology: Microsoft newsletter. Sign up today! ]
"This is a major rewriting" of Windows, says Thomas McCormick, software and systems developer at ECI Innovations, and other developers view it as an important response to Apple's iOS and Google's Android.
Central to this rewriting is the operating system's new Metro UI, which some believe will enable developers to create the kind of immersive, full-screen, touch-centric applications that are driving the tablet revolution.
Microsoft's bold move
For many developers, the Windows 8 preview came across as a bold, if not essential, step forward for Microsoft. "I think it's the most aggressive [move] they've done in the post-Gates era," McCormick says, adding that Windows 8 will "absolutely" help Microsoft in the tablet space. "The UI is very polished."
Meanwhile, HP software architect Kevin Barnett sees Windows 8 being the biggest change to the platform since Windows 95. "It's a big shift in just about every dimension," Barnett says, citing the importance of the new application model for Windows 8, the operating system's new UI, and the fact that Windows 8 could make Microsoft a significant player in the ARM processor arena.
Noble Edward, senior architect at mobile CRM applications builder Consona, says he will be talking to his employers about supporting Windows tablets. "I develop applications for Android and iPhone, and in our company, we never even included Windows Phone as part of the target," Edward says.
Windows 8's emphasis on touch-based interactions impressed Brendan Forster, a developer at development firm Readify: "I love that they said they are putting touch first."
Developer Chris DiPierro, director of software development at data collection services provider Mi-Co, agrees. Windows 8 presents "an incredible opportunity for us," DiPierro says, citing strong interest among Mi-Co customers for software targeted at the tablet form factor. "Our response thus far has been to do Web applications, but there are inherent limitations you get out of that," such as reliance on HTML5 local storage, he says. "[With Windows 8] I feel like we can port a lot of what we already have -- native .Net apps -- over to this."

Westwood's U-2 connection
In his decades-long quest to learn about his father's life and honor his legacy, Francis Gary Powers Jr. has made a career out of piecing together puzzles.
Only recently, with the help of a Henrico native, did a giant piece of the puzzle – a shadowy, vaguely-alluded-to "Richmond connection" – drop into place.
The son of the famed U-2 pilot was at the Virginia Historical Society March 10 to lead a gallery walk through an exhibit of memorabilia from his father's life and career. The exhibit, on display through May, includes mementos from the senior Powers' early years in Southwest Virginia, a fragment from the U-2 plane in which he was shot down on May 1,1960, photos from his trial and keepsakes from his captivity in a Russian prison.
The exhibit also contains a display of letters addressed to 6103 West Club Lane in Henrico – souvenirs of a relationship that Powers' son discovered last spring after a puzzling call from Rosaanne Speranza.
Pausing to introduce Speranza to the gallery crowd, Powers told them he first heard of her when she left a message saying, "You don't know me, but my father paid for your grandparents to go to Russia for your father's trial."
The news came as a surprise, since Powers had always heard that Life magazine paid for the flight to Russia in return for exclusive rights to the story. Having seen pictures taken by Life photographers, Powers never had reason to doubt the story – until Speranza came into his life.
Headlines hit home
Today a resident of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Speranza grew up in the house on West Club Lane – the first house in the neighborhood -- and her parents owned the Westwood Supper Club. Vincent ("Jimmy") Speranza, the only one of his 13 siblings to leave Italy for the States, ran the club from 1935-1950.
A junior in high school in 1960, Speranza can remember her father's reaction when the news broke that a U.S. pilot had been shot down over Russia, and that he had family in Pound, Virginia.
"My father felt the pain of being separated from family," recalls Speranza, "because the rest of his family was in Italy. He said, 'If that was my son, I would want to be with him.'"
Hoping to help and also to avoid publicity, Jimmy Speranza contacted his close friend and confidante Wilmer Hedrick, the chief of police in Henrico. Hedrick and John Leard, a fellow club member and editor of Richmond Newspapers, assisted him in the effort to reach Norton shoemaker Oliver Powers. The correspondence that ensued grew into a long friendship between the Speranza and Powers family.
"Every time [the Powers] would travel to meet with someone at the State Department," says Rosaanne, "they'd stay at our house."
It was not until after her mother's death in January 2009 (Jimmy had passed in 1965) that Rosaanne had a chance to pore over the letters and gain an understanding of just how close the two couples had been.
"[The letters from Oliver Powers] start out, 'Dear Mr. Speranza,'" says Rosanne. "Then it's 'Dear Mr. and Mrs. Speranza and daughter,' then it's 'Dear Jimmy and Alice and Rosaanne.'
"I didn't realize till I sat down and read them – this is a wonderful evolution of a friendship."
'They're yours!'
While considering what to do with the letters, Speranza remembered that the Powers had had a son. A friend tracked down the Midlothian resident on the internet, and Speranza left the message on Powers' voice mail.
"I knew he was thinking, 'Who is this person? Is this a Looney-Tunes?'," Speranza recalls. Unaware that Powers was traveling, she waited 10 days for a response, then called again. This time she connected, and Powers listened politely – if somewhat skeptically – while she described the letters.
"Then he says to me," recalls Speranza, "'You can do three things: sell them on e-Bay, donate them to a museum – or give them to me.'
"I said, 'Hands down, they're yours!'"
She and Powers made plans to meet last May, while she was in town for her mother's memorial celebration at The Westwood Club.
Once Powers saw the envelopes, all skepticism dissolved. He read each letter aloud -- from notes written on receipt forms from the Norton City Shoe Shop, to letters informing the Speranzas that the Powerses would show photos and film from the trial.
There were also newspaper clippings about Jimmy Speranza's efforts (eventually made public) to encourage Oliver Powers to fly to Moscow and meet with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. One clipping, entitled "Powers' Father Writes Red," describes Powers' hopes for a heart-to-heart with Khrushchev -- "one father to another."
Eye-opening rewards
For Powers, who was five when Oliver Powers died (and 12 when his father died), the glimpse into his grandparents' lives has been both eye-opening and rewarding. He added the letters to the traveling exhibit of the Cold War Museum, which he founded in 1996 after a trip retracing his father's journey through Russia and his release in a prisoner exchange. This year, the letters should find a permanent home when ground is broken for the museum building in Fauquier County.
What's more, the discovery of the letters has cemented a new Powers-Speranza friendship.
The day after the gallery walk at VHS, Powers and Speranza met at the Westwood Club, where she visited with old friend Ada Evans – a Westwood employee since Speranza's teen-age years. Over lunch, Speranza and Powers reminisced about their families, and about the Westwood in its heyday.
During World War II, when the ban on using gasoline for pleasure trips could have shut down the club, Jimmy Speranza bought a railroad car flatbed, outfitted it with wheels, and devised a horse-drawn trolley to get diners to and from the last streetcar stop at Hamilton and Broad.
The Westwood Supper Club was also a popular spot for dances during the era, and the site from which Harvey Hudson (a frequent guest at the Speranza dinner table) made a remote broadcast on his very first assignment for WRVA.
Even then, her father was legendary for his generosity and compassion, said Speranza. He threw parties for families of the band members who played at the club, and in 1944 he brought in 100 soldiers from Ft. Lee for a free Christmas dinner at Westwood -- "which included a can of beer," she says with a laugh.
And although Oliver Powers tried at least three times to repay the cost of his plane fare, Jimmy Speranza always tore up the check.
So as the 50th anniversary of the U-2 Incident draws near, along with the long-awaited establishment of a museum home, Gary Powers is thankful as well for the appearance of Rosaanne Speranza in his life.
"It's been a pleasure, a surprise and a delight," he says of the encounter. "We've become good friends; we've bonded. It's nice to know people out there are good-hearted and do things for the right reasons."
"Thank you," he says to her, "for opening a chapter of my family history."
Once again, they share laughs about the way it all started: with Powers getting a mysterious call from "a crazy lady."
"It's a badge," says Speranza with a smile, "I will proudly wear."
A second gallery walk with Francis Gary Powers, Jr., may take place at the Virginia Historical Society at a date to be announced in April. For information about the gallery walk or exhibit, visit vahistorical.org. For information about Powers and the Cold War Museum, visit coldwar.org.

Short Pump brewery offers more than just beer
I am still (happily) thinking about my entire experience at Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery last week. Knowing nothing about this new brewery out of Denver, I was leery of brew-pub in the heart of Short Pump Town Center – this is not what I'd usually think of as a perfect fit, and yet, it was.
The restaurant and craft brewery opened in early June and features 10 beers made by female brewmaster Becky Hammond (pictured). This is the restaurant's second location in Virginia; the first is in Arlington. Behind glass walls, customers watched the beer brewing in massive steel barrels. For our up-and-coming beer region, it makes sense that Short Pump would jump on board.
As I walked up to the back of the mall near the comedy club, I was taken aback by what I saw: at the top of the stairs was an overflowing restaurant with outdoor seating, large umbrellas and dangling outdoor lights. > Read more.

Best FB status update I've seen in some time, courtesy Deborah Newell Tornello (aka litbrit):
I have seen the face of oligarchy: it's wearing a hat festooned with tea bags and it carries a misspelled sign.
There you have it.
# # # #
As I understand it, an environmental protester (meaning a guy who protests on behalf of saving the environment) named Tim DeChristopher went to a Bureau of Land Management auction where they were basically going to give away a bunch of land to Big Oil. He out-bid the oil companies for several parcels of land. There was no way he could even come close to paying for it.
The feds arrested him. And now it looks like he's going to prison for a couple of years.
I won't pretend to understand the ins and outs of the case. But based on his comments to the court at his sentencing, the whole thing sounds like a sham.
If what he is saying is even close to true, then this isn't justice -- it's vengeance.
Look, I think peaceful protests and peaceful civic disruption are, as Mr. DeChristopher says, pretty much the foundation of our democracy. After all, who were the Founding Fathers but a bunch of guys who were pissed off at the British Monarchy?
A guy comes in and deliberately dorks around with a BLM proceeding. Two years in prison for that? Really? Because that's a deterrent? No way.
The other side of this is you have to know what you're getting in to. When you walk through the doors of a federal office and deliberately disrupt proceedings where billions of dollars are at stake (granted, billions which would enrich Big Oil, but still...), you have to expect something. You don't have to like the process any more than I do, but it's there, and there are laws there to protect that process. It delivers an outcome none of us like, and Tim DeChristopher is a lot braver than I am -- but I'll bet he knows as well as I do that there are other ways to draw attention to the flaws in the system.
The whole thing sure is a shame.

I know you're probably as burned out (and by "burned out" I mean in a state of catatonic panic) on the debt ceiling deal as I am, but this is a must-read Paul Krugman piece in the New York Times:
But for those who insist that the center is always the place to be, I have an important piece of information: We already have a centrist president. Indeed, Bruce Bartlett, who served as a policy analyst in the Reagan administration, argues that Mr. Obama is in practice a moderate conservative.
Mr. Bartlett has a point. The president, as we've seen, was willing, even eager, to strike a budget deal that strongly favored conservative priorities. His health reform was very similar to the reform Mitt Romney installed in Massachusetts. Romneycare, in turn, closely followed the outlines of a plan originally proposed by the right-wing Heritage Foundation. And returning tax rates on high-income Americans to their level during the Roaring Nineties is hardly a socialist proposal.
True, Republicans insist that Mr. Obama is a leftist seeking a government takeover of the economy, but they would, wouldn't they? The facts, should anyone choose to report them, say otherwise.
It's tough being to the left, politically, and having to support a president who really is in the political center. I think that's what drives progressives nuts the most: having to defend what amounts to Republican positions as they are deflecting attacks on Obama. It's too much for a lot of folks, and frankly, I kind of understand it.
With that said, I understand the difference between politics and government, and so I can accept that Obama is going to try and drive policy decisions to the center. And I'll still defend him.
# # # #
Just what the Bay Areas -- and Florida -- needs: downgraded credit.
Hillsborough County is one of 162 local governments whose Aaa credit rating has been placed under review for possible downgrade by Moody's Investors Service amid the growing national debt crisis.
Moody's said its action Thursday was tied to its July 13 decision to place the United States' Aaa government bond rating under review for a downgrade as it inches closer to a possible default if the national debt ceiling is not raised.
I realize all the dopes in the tea party think that the U.S. defaulting is no big deal, or whatever -- but this is just nuts. How can anyone think there's no practical implications to default?

We have a problem with Government, it's way to big. So big, it can't even control itself.

Jeff Rosen is just another example of what is wrong with our system. He thinks that laws, policies and procedures don't apply to him. I am sure he is not an exceptions on issues like this. It is so prevalent our system. Who is watching these guys? No one. Jeff made a big mistake by asking for such a lenient sentence for Shirakawa and that was so outrageous by emphasizing that George Shirakawa's service to the public. One has to wonder what kind of service Shirakawa has done. he stole tax payers money and helped the corrupt and crooked labor unions steal more tax payers money. The system is so ****ing rotten. Anybody who thinks their local politicians, bureaucrats and state/city employees are honest and ethical, are way beyond stupid. They work less and steal more.

I am not able to control my laughter while reading this article. What a cruel joke it is to ask a corrupt and crooked state AG to investigate a local corrupt AG? Kamala Harris has set new lows when it comes to ethics and common sense. I blame the stupid voters (free loaders) of California.

Dozens of members of a state Baptist association came to tornado-ravaged parts of Hattiesburg Saturday to hand out relief supplies to victims of the Feb. 10 storm. About 50 folks with the Mississippi National Baptist State Convention gathered at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church to giveaway clothes, blankets and cleaning supplies to anyone who needed them...free of charge.
Organization members from Jackson to the Gulf Coast helped with the giveaway.
"We've already been up one time before in another community, so this is actually our second effort here in the Hattiesburg area," said Rev. Kenneth Davis, president of the Mississippi National Baptist State Convention. "We hope we'll be able to come again soon," he said.
"We lost some stuff...it's a blessing, it's a blessing," said Jeffrey Johnson, a tornado victim from Oak Grove who picked up clothes and other items.
About 300 churches are in the Mississippi National Baptist State Convention.

FORT MILL — The Fort Mill Yellow Jackets boys' soccer team, after 10 days off, defeated Clover 3-1 in the first game of Region III play.
The seventh-ranked Yellow Jackets won four of its first five games after opening the season in the Sandhills Classic in Columbia 10 days ago.
Before the match Clover had dropped four of its first six games.
In the first half, both teams tried to gain the upper hand, but it was the Jackets that broke through near the 10-minute mark when senior forward Austin Cassidy scored the first of his two goals.
"Interesting how Clover came out. I don't think the boys seen anything like that, allowing them to get the ball in the back and not even pressuring," said Jackets coach Lloyd Chalker. "It was a good thing to learn from. Austin did really well. Good result."
After the first goal, Clover tried to tighten its defense, but Fort Mill found its way around the Blue Eagles. The Jackets used the middle of the field to do most of its damage and then loaded the box once it was inside the 20. That helped Cassidy to convert his second goal just 10 minutes after his first. One thing that helped to allow Cassidy to thread the seams was the amount of open space Clover allowed.
Fort Mill came out firing in the second half taking a shot within the first minute and stayed aggressive. The Blue Eagles tried to be more aggressive in the second half as well, but struggled to get momentum its way as Fort Mill stayed on top of things offensively.
The Jackets had two corner kicks in the first seven minutes of the second half, but couldn't convert either one. Fort Mill also had a couple of free kicks, but launched them either too high or too far right.
Clover's keeper Robert Schreiner made a key save that looked like it was in the goal for Fort Mill with about 30 minutes left in the game to keep the Jackets contained.
Defensively, Fort Mill was just as strong in the second half as they were in the first allowing Clover to rarely get into position to set up a shot. Clover did attempt several corner kicks in the second half and got a couple throw-ins, but the Jackets stacked the box keeping the attempt at bay nearly each time.
Fort Mill added a third goal with about 15 minutes left on a save that again got knocked out of the goal initially, before senior midfielder Jon Cutrone came streaking up the middle to knock the ball into the back of the net.
Clover did get on the board with about 10 minutes left as freshman Buddy Curtin would score for the Blue Eagles preventing the Fort Mill shutout.
Fort Mill also cruised with a 5-0 shutout against York later in the week to improve to 6-1-0 overall and 2-0 in Region III.
Fort Mill has matches against Rock Hill and Lancaster this week, before a big region showdown against Northwestern on March 25.

We asked over 7,000 readers to pick their all-time favorite candy out of a star-studded lineup of some of the world's most popular candies. With our survey results, we're breaking down candy by the numbers. Curious to see whether chocolate bars outperformed fruity candies, or which licorice took top place? Then read on — some of the answers are bound to surprise you. Or check out our bracket infograph for all the results in one sweet spot! Readers' Top 10 Candy Picks What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 And the best candy of all time is . . . Reese's Peanut Butter Cups! Your favorite peanut-filled chocolate cups took top prize, with other chocolate contenders Twix, Snickers, and Peanut M&Ms vying for first place. The only nonchocolate candy to make it in the top five was Gummi Bears. M&Ms might've lost out on this title, but it took home another: according to Yahoo, it was the top-searched candy in the month of October. Trailing closely behind? Candy corn, chewy caramels, Skittles, and Butterfinger. 1 / 7 Best Performing Candy in Each Category What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Our extremely scientific candy polling team found a winner in each of six categories. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, which was named the overall best candy, also won in the chocolate category. With Gummi Bears, the name says it all: these translucent creatures took home the gummy category. Twizzlers beat out Red Vines in the licorice department, and Skittles won in the fruity candy category. Let's not forget about chewy candies, represented best with Bit-O-Honey, and last, but not least, candy corn in the novelty category. What's your favorite of the six? 2 / 7 Our Favorite Candy Picks What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We've got — pardon the pun — a sweet spot for a handful of the 64 candies that were chosen to be in the bracket, among them Butterfinger, Kit Kat, and Sour Patch kids. While our beloved Twix came in second place, another office favorite, Red Vines, didn't do so well, with a measly ranking of 37th place. 3 / 7 Most Popular Candy Filling What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 There's nothing better than a confection that offers a sweet surprise on the inside. Some popular candy fillings included cookie, fruit flavors, mint, and coconut — but nothing beats out the top two fillings, peanuts and caramel. These dueling winners might be the result of a difference between male and female candy preferences; according to a Twix Treat Survey, women prefer chewy treats 42 percent to 33 percent, while more men seek out treats with a crunch (33 percent to 23 percent). 4 / 7 Chocolate: The Best Performing Category What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Chocolate, by far, was the best performing candy category. Our top four chocolates: Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, taking a whopping 36 percent of the chocolate vote, followed by Twix, Snickers, and then Peanut M&Ms. 6 / 7 Vote! What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Don't agree with the results? Then be sure to cast your vote in our Best Candy of All Time bracket! 6 / 7 Nostalgic and Novelty Candy What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We played up every sweet tooth's nostalgic side by pitting the likes of Pop Rocks and Pixy Stix against one another. Some notable novelties in the game: concession pick Good & Plenty, Easter favorite Peeps, and, of course, the Halloween favorite known to the world as candy corn. A love for the past likely plays a larger role in our love for candy than we might think: According to a Twix Treat Survey, seven out of 10 adults age 18 to 24 said they would trick-or-treat if they could. The dirty looks from neighbors are holding them back. 7 / 7 0 20 8 7 0 Read More Candy Survey2011 Candy BracketExclusiveHalloweenCandy Halloween Get Ready For Halloween With DIY Candy Corn Wine Bottles 20 hours ago 43 "Punny" Halloween Costumes That Won't Break the Bank 2 days ago 44 Practically Free Halloween Costumes to DIY 6 days ago Get a Jump on Your Frozen Halloween Costume 1 week ago 101 Halloween Costumes to DIY on the Cheap 2 weeks ago Calling All Wizards: A Harry Potter Party For Kids 2 weeks ago candy This Pop Rocks Margarita Is All Grown Up 3 weeks ago 11 Reasons It Was Sweet to Be a '90s Kid 7/21 This Candy Bar Is Like a Rave in Your Mouth . . . in a Good Way 7/20 Lovely Chocolate-Lace Lollipops Are Shockingly Easy to Make 6/11 Pretty in Pink: Stunning Edible Flower Lollipops 5/29 What Totally Sweet '90s Candy Are You? 5/28 Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

A mid afternoon semi/car accident at a busy Grand Island intersection sends one person to the hospital.
About 4:30 Thursday afternoon, a semi rammed the back of a car at the intersection of Second and Broadwell. Authorities say the truck driver thought the car was going to go through a yellow light but didn't and the truck couldn't stop fast enough, hitting so hard it shattered the back glass.
The female driver of the car was taken to St. Francis emergency room with complaints of arm and head pain.
West-bound traffic was reduced to one lane for about 45 minutes, and the semi driver was cited for careless driving.

Customer Reviews
- good, light down layer (Review by Clayton)
I bought this vest online without having tried it on. At first I was a little bummed because I thought it would have had more filling but when I started using it over the radiant hoody and under a hardshell it's pretty darn nice. The glove pockets inside are also pretty nice for ice climbing so you can constantly keep your other gloves next to your body. Down vest under a hardshell is a pretty good & versatile combo for skiing.

- Men's Transcendent Vest (Review by By Matt)
I love this vest. It is warm and compressible, yet is still thin enough to wear as a layering piece.It does infact stuff into the right hand pocket, and even has a loop to hang from a carabiner.I did buy one size down because I wanted it to fit my torso nice and slim...worked out perfect.

- Men's Transcendent Vest (Review by By Luke The Urban Explorer)
Versatile it can be worn on the trail or out and about - the construction is second to none with the quality seams and sewing evident with it's tough wearing feel for a down vest.Perfect as a mid layer under a shell or as an outer layer on crisper days.The only thing is that it is sizing large so maybe some people might need to go down a size...

- Men's Transcendent Vest (Review by By Aslan)
