I regularly receive Twitter comments ranging from the tame and jejune 'fag', 'fudge packer', 'cock sucker', 'spazzy' and 'ugly cunt' to the more personal and nasty 'you should have been kicked out of your mums womb', 'I'd slit your throat fag', 'You should get raped with a machete' and 'Hitler had the right idea. Put you faggot bastards in an oven at 230 degrees until crispy'.
Usually the month of August is referred to as the silly season. The political exploitation of 14-year-old schoolgirl Hannah Smith's suicide by both tabloid and broadsheet newspapers suggests we might have to rechristen it the sinister season. Even for a press like ours, with its many well-known moral lapses, the shroud-waving over Hannah's death marks a new low.

Grants help two shops open for business in Nelson
3:30pm Monday 3rd December 2012 in News
TWO shops have opened up in Nelson thanks to grants given by Pendle Council.
First Stop and Choc Stop have opened recently in the town centre after the owners applied to the council for funding.
Councillor Paul White, who leads on regeneration, said: "It's great to support local businesses like these through our Premises Improvement and Business Start up grants.
"The new shops look fantastic and offer something that's a little bit different, in a central location.
"There really is no stopping business in Pendle."
Grants can be used for a variety of things including signage, canopies, new windows and window displays .
The council can also pay towards new websites for businesses and promotional flyers.
First Stop, owned by Andy Coulton, sells electronic cigarettes, a healthy substitute to smoking.
He said: "Starting up a new business is always costly and the grant really helped to speed things up.
"The assistance from Paul Collins and Imtiaz Shah in the council's economic development team was priceless.
"Coming from outside Pendle I was more than happy to set up business in Nelson.
"The location and shop size was perfect"
Anyone starting up a new business in Pendle can contact the council for advice about grants. For more information visit www.pendle.gov.uk/business or call Imtiaz Shah on 01282 661688.

Oh really? Well the extortionate business rates that the council insist on charging in some areas of Pendle would suggest otherwise.

While it always good to read of new businesses opening I must say that I think the Eectronic ciggy will be short lived.

I have a case where I have a Classification definition I want to do away with . There is not much in the drawing file... an MEP Pipe, Stuctural Member, a couple MvBlocks, and Property Sets. But no Schedule definitions.
I can't seem to purge out the Classification.
I did find a display set that had a reference to it.. but I cleared that... but still cannot purge it out.
Any idea what might be keeping a hold on it that would prevent me from purging it our?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I am going to assume that the classification does not have a little lock on the icon in the style manager. If it does then your out of luck it cannot be purged. But if it doesnt then there are a couple things that you could do. If it is a template drawing then just start with a blank pure acad drawing and using the style manager and display manager copy over all styles and display sets. Just make sure not to do a blanket copy of the classifications. Instead copy them over one at a time. If the classification to be purged copies over anyway then it is linked to an object in the template and you will need to dig deeper by checking all of your property sets and such. Do you have any property sets that apply to classifications and if so are they attached to the classification. In addition, do any of your property sets have a classification property definition inside of them? I don't think it would hold up purging the classification but you never know.
Make sure you use the bldsyspurge command on your drawing and then the regular purge command and see if you can purge the classification then. As a last resort you can try the export command and export the items in model space to a clean fresh drawing. This will not copy over any styles not in use so if your classification is not attached to a viewable object it should be removed from the drawing. You can then import any styles and display sets you might need in the new drawing.
Hopes this helps or gives you ideas to find the problem.
Just wanted to say thanks... I imported the half dozen items into my lattest template for 2013... the unwanted classification came in with it... but it did allow me to purge is out... it will replace one of our standard blocks in our system.
Thanks again!

Welcome to the Valley of the Chateauguay.
"....a community distinct from every other in the province of Quebec. With the Eastern Townships, with which they are often erroneously classed, the English-speaking settlements of the district of Beauharnois have no affinity. The first settlers of the Eastern Townships were Americans, and between the customs, speech, and habits of their descendants and those of the people who live to the south of them there is no material difference, but they who dwell by the Chateaugay and its tributaries are of Old Country stock, and in character, ways of life, and speech present nearly as striking a contrast to the Americans, who are divided from them by an imaginary boundary-line, as they do to the French Canadians who are found scattered among them and who hem them in to the north and east."

Survival Bracelets
A survival bracelet is a great way to start a conversation about your Savior. These paracord bracelets serve as constant reminders that God wants everyone to be pulled out the darkness and into the light (1 Timothy 2:4).
These Kerusso accessories do more than add a little something to your style—they're a reflection of what's in your heart. You're living a life that tells the world you're a follower of Christ. You're different—everyone around you knows that. Every Kerusso accessory is designed to start the conversation that can help you explain the difference to others.
As Oswald Chambers once said, "For one man who can introduce another to Jesus Christ by the way he lives and by the atmosphere of his life, there are a thousand who can only talk jargon about him." Be that guy or gal who walks the walk and talks the talk.
Christian Survival Bracelets
You can use Kerusso's Christian survival bracelets to prompt you to pray for the safety of our troops or to use as a gift for service members, helping them to remember that the Lord is their refuge and strength during times of trouble and hardship (Psalm 46:1).
Don't forget those men and women fighting on another battlefield—those soldiers for Christ serving as missionaries. They, too, could use the daily reminder that it's not by their might or their power that they are effective in their ministry, but by the Spirit of the Lord.
Paracord Survival Bracelets
Kerusso also offers matching paracord survival key chains in the same earthy colors as the bracelets.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- A man has pleaded not guilty to charges resulting from a fight after the Minnesota Vikings-Green Bay Packers game last month.
The case against Mark Swanson, of Lakeland, Minn., is now headed for trial. Ashwaubenon public safety officer Robert Messer testified in Brown County Circuit Court Tuesday that a video taken by Swanson's girlfriend shows some pushing and shoving in a bar parking lot between Swanson and Paul Hrubesky after the game Dec. 2. He says it then shows Hrubesky on the ground unconscious.
Swanson is charged with felony battery and disorderly conduct. WLUK-TV reports defense attorney Brian Maloney says Hrubesky's son started the fight and his client was defending himself.

Tomorrow probably. I've gotta add some stuff.This Message Edited On 08.16.07
Album's boring as hell. Nate Johnson's vocals kill it for me, and the production is horrible...there are some cool moments in there though, so I pretty much agree with the 2.5 rating. Average album, nothing special, and definitely not as good as Bloodlust.
Album Rating: 2.5I didnt really like Bloodlust though, I'd have that at maybe a 3. Scars of Ages I really like though.
i cant really get into these guys, great review. might check this one out

Tytherington-based Dan Studley to represent England at Burgos Cross Country International in Spain
9:27am Thursday 8th November 2012 in Sport
TYTHERINGTON-BASED runner Dan Studley is looking forward to representing England at an international event for the first time this weekend.
The 20-year-old has been called up to the senior squad for the Burgos Cross Country International in Spain after making giant strides forward in the last 18 months.
Studley only made his regional debut when he represented the Midlands at the Home Countries International at Rouken Glen in March, finishing 26th in 24:44.
After a good summer on the track, he impressed by finishing sixth on the first leg ERRA Men's 6 stage Relays, to help Bristol & District AC finish tenth as the 12th fastest runner overall and second under-23, and then came third at the Gwent League meeting in Bridgend to earn a call-up.
"I never thought I'd be selected but I'm really excited," said Studley.
"This year I've made a huge improvement culminating in this.
"I wasn't competitive in cross country last year, but I did well when I represented the Midlands at the British Championships, so in the last 18 months I've been moving forward really well.
"England tend to favour under-23s because they want to give you a chance to compete against international athletes."
Studley will be up against top professionals in Burgos, with last year's entry list including Ethiopian Tariku Bekele, who finished second and went onto win bronze behind Mo Farah in the 10,000m at the London 2012 Olympics.

Regarding the June 25 article "What's a good deal when it comes to disease prevention?":
Healthy workplace policies are a low-cost, high-impact way to support healthy employees. Creating a tobacco-free worksite greatly increases the chance employees who use tobacco will quit. Couple that with insurance benefits that cover no-cost medication and counseling, and tobacco quit rates double. As the reporter pointed out, this saves employers money.
While evidence is still building on obesity prevention in the workplace, establishing policies that give employees easy access to healthy snacks and allow them to exercise on paid time has immediate and lasting benefits at work and home. Building strong prevention policies at work doesn't cost a lot, improves employee productivity and makes for a healthier bottom line.

In the Garden
Caring for your trees
With the arrival of fall, days will soon be getting noticeably shorter and nighttime temperatures will begin to fall.
Now, as your trees begin responding to the changing conditions, you can take a number of proactive steps to care for them and help ensure they will be healthy and beautiful for years to come.
"It's a good idea to think about the health of your trees in fall," says certified arborist Jason Anderson, co-owner of Arborscapes LLC. Anderson conducts the training on trees for Master Gardeners in Henrico, Chesterfield, and Goochland/Powhatan.
He advises starting by taking a good, long look at your trees. Notice whether there are dead branches – which are much easier to identify while the leaves are still on the tree. Some dead branches are normal, but if more than roughly 10% -- the amount varies by tree type – is dead, you may want to consider talking to a certified arborist.
Look again when the leaves start to fall to make sure all your deciduous trees of the same species are dropping their leaves at roughly the same time. "If one is dropping its leaves earlier, it can be a sign that the tree is stressed," says Anderson.
Checking trees of like species again next spring to see if they bud at roughly the same time can also help you tell if you have a tree that is stressed.
"An important thing to remember," says Anderson, "particularly if you have a mature tree is that the tree may not show signs of distress for two or three years following the event that causes the stress."
After looking up, look down to check the mulch around your trees.
"Mulching is one of the best things you can do for your trees," says Anderson, "provided you do it properly."
Mulch around trees should be no more than 2-3 inches deep and should never be piled up against tree bark at the base of the tree. Make the ring of mulch as large as you can up to the dripline or end of the branches of the tree.
Good mulch materials include aged sawdust, shredded pine bark, or wood chips.
"It's important not to over mulch," says Anderson. "And you need to remember that mulch goes over the roots, but not on the trunk of the tree."
Mulch adds organic matter to the soil around the tree and helps keep soil temperatures warmer, allowing tree roots to continue to grow later into the fall. Once winter arrives, mulch helps reduce alternate freezing and thawing that heaves soil and can cause damage to young roots.
Mulching also reduces water loss and helps maintain uniform soil moisture around tree roots.
"Grass roots compete with tree roots for water," says Anderson. "Mulching eliminates the competition."
Fall and winter when trees are dormant are also ideal times to do any pruning that may be needed. "Structural and formative pruning on trees less than ten years old can help eliminate problems in the future," explains Anderson. "And older trees may need deadwood removed to improve their structure and reduce liability during bad weather."

Philippines ambassador to the US visits Filipino Festival in Henrico
The Ambassador of the Philippines to the United States Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. attended the Ninth Annual Filipino Festival at Our Lady of Lourdes Church earlier this month. Cuisia (pictured above with festival performers) was welcomed by County Manager John Vithoulkas and Brookland District Supervisor Dick Glover (below) at the church, which is located in Lakeside.
While enjoying some of the cultural performances at the festival, the ambassador and his wife had a private lunch with Vithoulkas, Glover, Eldon Burton (an outreach representative from U.S. Senator Mark R. Warner's Office) and Father James Begley, the pastor of OLL. > Read more.

'Planes' sequel crashes
'Fire and Rescue' proves too predictable, boring
Planes: Fire and Rescue opens with a dedication to the hero firefighters of the world. It's an admirable notion, and it makes sense, given that this is a film about planes that fight fires.
But here it might be a little out of place, as Planes: Fire and Rescue has a few things on its mind besides supporting the men and women who routinely throw themselves into burning buildings.
Like money. Lots and lots of money – into the 11-figures-and-counting range. In case you weren't aware, 2006's Cars was the biggest moneymaker Disney had in decades – not because of how much green the film printed at the box office, but because a combination of toys, games and snack foods stamped with the Cars seal of approval routinely pulls in tens of billions of dollars per year. > Read more.

Matthew Omolesky: An Island Adrift ... Britain and the Future of Euroskepticism
Matthew Omolesky specialized in European affairs at the Whitehead School of Diplomacy's graduate program, and received his juris doctor from The Ohio State University's Moritz College of Law.
Drawn in pale brown pink on two skins of soft vellum, the Gough Map, kept in Oxford's Bodleian Library, presents a haunting image of a Britain half-formed in the consciousness of a mid-14th-century cartographer. While a russet-robed William Langland sat nestled in the Malvern Hills, gazing eastwards and dreaming of a tower, a dungeon, and the "fair feld ful of folk" between, the Gough Map's anonymous scribe set about delineating the bustlingsettlements, blessed plots, ancient highways, and riverine byways of the Scepter'd Isle. The scattered icons of the fading map still recall the social panorama included in Langland's Piers Plowman, that great "assemblee" of Britain, with "alle manere of men, the meene and the riche, werchynge and wandrynge as the world asketh." In the Gough Map, one can still make out the various facets of Langland's country, from the fecund pastures to the teeming emporia, indeed all the hallmarks of a self-sufficient but outward-looking nation.
One can also make out, suspended overhead like a canopy, or perhaps like Damocles' sword, a thin strip of land vaguely representative of the coasts of Flanders and Normandy. Studded with inviting ports populated by obliging burghers, and with forbidding castles garrisoned by mortal dynastic enemies, Europe appears as both bane and boon to those across the narrow channel. Already being advanced in this, the first accurate map of the British Isles, was a semi-detached view of Albion's relationship with Europe. It was a view that would hold sway in the centuries to come, necessitating an uneasy accommodation between insular exceptionalism and the lucrative, yet dangerous, call of the continent.
From time immemorial, the English have flattered themselves with the Shakespearean formulation that theirs is a "little world," a "precious stone set in the silver sea," separated from "less happier lands" by a fortuitous moat, one wider in practice than the seven leagues from Dover to Calais. "This realm of England is an empire," declared the Henrician Act in Restraint of Appeals to Rome (1533), with a "body politic" admittedly comprised of "all sorts and degrees of people divided in terms and by names of spiritualty and temporalty," but one absolutely independent of "any foreign princes or potentates of the world." That Britannia was comprised of "all sorts" was certainly no exaggeration. Daniel Defoe, in The True-Born Englishman (1700), archly described his countrymen as an "amphibious ill-born mob," a palimpsest of invaders and settlers whose "relics are so lasting and so strong" as to leave a "shibboleth upon our tongue / By which with easy search you may distinguish / Your Roman-Saxon-Danish-Norman English." By factoring in the "Dutch, Walloons, Flemings, Irishmen, and Scots / Vaudois, and Valtolins, and Huguenots" who likewise made their often desperate way to Britain's shores, Defoe could conclude that his homeland was "Europe's sink," rather than the doughty "fortress built by Nature for herself" of Shakespeare's John of Gaunt.
Even if the "true-born Englishman" was in fact a curiously "het'rogeneous thing," as Defoe demonstrated and the passage of time has further confirmed, one exceptional aspect of his island empire's character could at least be considered sui generis: its free constitution. From the slow accretion of the common law to the dramatic recognition of the Magna Carta, and from the development of the writ of habeas corpus to the passage of the 1689 Bill of Rights, the British state would come to feature an array of what William Blackstone termed "the absolute rights of every Englishman." The English writer John Brown, in his 1757 Estimate of the Manners and Principles of the Times, spoke for his countrymen as he boasted that whereas Liberty "hath been ingrafted by the Arts of Policy in other Countries, it shoots up here as from its natural Climate, Stock, and Soil," with the result that "this great Spirit hath produced more full and compleat Effects in our own Country, than in any known Nation that ever was upon Earth." Liberal philosophes across the Channel were in full agreement, with Montesquieu positing that it was in England that "liberty will appear in its highest perfection," and with Voltaire praising the English for being "jealous not only of their own liberty, but even of that of other nations." The government of England, the sage of Ferney continued, had for its laudable object "not the brilliant folly of making conquests, but to prevent its neighbors from making them."
Poised in the balance of the swaying scales of European geopolitics, Britain could hold itself out as the safeguard of both continental stability and sovereign rights. It was a dual role perfectly suited to the conflicted identity of an exceptional island drawn inexorably toward the mainland. As such, Britain would find itself in an unending series of continental interventions, many renowned, and many more now but half-remembered in the public's consciousness. The British historian Brendan Simms has recently made a compelling case that "the Bank of England, the national debt, the stock market, the Royal Navy and the standing army"—all of which make up the modern "apparatus of the 'fiscal-military state'"—were each "primarily designed to sustain Britain's international role in Europe." Imperial holdings would grow in importance, and a "blue water" policy would become increasingly fashionable in strategic circles, but the European commitment was destined to remain a British preoccupation...

Poor communication skills can be an inherited family trait. If a person is raised in an environment where people don't listen or can't express their feelings, they will probably bring that inability to communicate into their marriage and other relationships. However, you can change the habit of being a shallow listener.
Listening Techniques to Try
To become a more effective listener, try some of these techniques:
- Be aware that you need to listen. Make eye contact. Pay attention by not looking at the TV or glancing at the newspaper or finishing up a chore.
- Don't interrupt. Let your spouse finish what they are saying. If this is a problem and you interrupt a lot, place your hands over your mouth, or you chin in your hands to remind you to keep quiet.
- Try not to jump to conclusions. Keep an open mind and don't judge. Put yourself in your spouse's shoes. Be loving as you listen and don't overly react. Think before you say anything in response, especially if it is an emotional reaction.
- Don't look for the "right" or "wrong" in what your spouse is saying. Just listen.
- When responding, let your partner know that you heard what they said by using a feedback technique and restating what was said. Say something like You are saying you ....
- Be open to hearing that you didn't hear what your spouse was saying.
- Be aware of non-verbal signs and clues - both yours and those of your mate. These include shrugging your shoulders, tone of voice, crossing arms or legs, nodding, eye contact or looking away, facial expressions (smile, smirk, frown, shock, disgust, tears, surprise, rolling eyes, etc.), and mannerisms (fiddling with papers, tapping your fingers).
- Remember that feelings are neither right or wrong.
- Look out for these blocks to listening: mind reading, rehearsing, filtering, judging, daydreaming, advising, sparring, being right, changing the subject, and placating.
- Remember, that you can't listen and talk at the same time!
- Try to stay focused on the main points that your spouse is talking about. Don't be distracted if your mate digresses onto another topic.
- It's okay to ask questions to clarify what you thought you heard.
- Don't give advice unless asked for it.
- Listen without planning on what you are going to say in response. Let go of your own agenda.

A Cypress woman who became the first person in Orange County to contract West Nile virus this year was recovering at home today, according to public health officials.
The woman in her 60s tested positive for the mosquito-borne virus in mid-July, Nicole Stanfield of the Orange County Health Care Agency said.
The woman, whose name was not made public, was hospitalized in July but is now at home, she said. The county recorded 48 cases of West Nile Virus last year, and two patients died, Stanfield said.
The first local case was reported on Aug. 2 in 2012.
Last week, a 78-year-old Carson man died from the virus -- the first person to die from from West Nile Virus in Los Angeles County this year. "West Nile Virus is endemic in Orange County, recurring every year during the summer months and continuing into the fall,'' said Dr. Eric G. Handler, the county's health officer. "The best way to avoid West Nile Virus infection is to take precautionary measures to avoid mosquito bites.
West Nile Virus is typically a bigger threat to the very young and very old. Many infected people do not notice the flu-like symptoms, but about 20 percent get a fever, headaches, body aches, nausea, fatigue and sometimes a skin rash. More serious symptoms include migraines, neck stiffness, confusion, muscle weakness or paralysis.
Less than one in 150 people bitten by an infected mosquito get severely sick. In rare cases, the virus causes encephalitis or even death.

11:07am Friday 8th February 2013 in News By Tim MacFarlan, reporter
THE Dartford-based mastermind of a £1m iTunes scam has been given just a week to pay back £60,000.
Craig Anderson, aged 25, of Edwin Road, was sentenced to four years and eight months after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit fraud on April 20, 2011.
At Southwark Crown Court on January 30 a confiscation order was imposed for £60,525 to be paid back within seven days.
Anderson and his group uploaded UK produced urban music albums and tracks for sale on Apple iTunes and Amazon.com.
He then acquired thousands of stolen US and UK credit cards which were given to a number of individuals who in turn used the cards to make more than 500,000 online purchases of the music.
This generated £500,000 in royalty payments with an estimated loss to the victims, Apple and Amazon in the region of £1m.
The level of sales generated by the network was equivalent to that of a major recording artist.
Apple identified the fraud in 2009 following an investigation with the security team of one of the distribution companies.
The case has seen 11 people sentenced to a total of 13 years and four months imprisonment for fraud and money laundering offences.

Two in hospital after aggravated burglary
10:52am Sunday 28th October 2012 in News
A MAN and woman were injured after being attacked by armed raiders in their home.
Police were called to Caerwent Road, Croesyceiliog, Cwmbran, at 7.56pm on Friday.
Three masked men are said to have gained access through a back door and threatened the pair with weapons.
The man suffered serious head injuries after being attacked and was taken to Newport's Royal Gwent Hospital. The woman was also injured and required treatment.
All three attackers wore head gear that covered their faces. One of the attackers, thought to be the youngest, was described as being around 18 years old, of slight build, with fair features.
After the attack the three men left the house empty handed.
Anyone with information is asked to call Gwent Police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Question: What interests a graphic designer?
Answer: The stuff in this book.
Question: Why?
My Mac computer stores my personal collection of a few thousand digital photos I've taken over the years from around the world. Some, it always seemed to me, were just waiting to escape. And so I decided to make this presentation.
This book is about disparate images and the interplay between them. The sequence of images is not a narrative but it very often suggests pairings that are a mixture of the deliberate and the unintentional.
Some of the images are compelling in their simplicity, while others are engrossing in their complexity.
They sometimes ask, "What's wrong with this picture?" Most of them ask, "What's happening here?" or "What's going on?" Some are wacky, weird, quirky, ambiguous, eccentric, sad, humorous or trivial.
So, whether you think there's a connection between the images on these pages or you think there isn't, you're right. I hope you enjoy these images as much as I do. And, I hope they make you think: Who? What? Where? When? And, of course, Why?

Poverty Peddlers is the continuation of a Miami Herald series published in June that revealed sweeping problems at a celebrated biopharmaceutical park proposed in Liberty City.
The newspaper found that developer Dennis Stackhouse diverted more than $500,000 from the project through double billing and questionable expenses while paying a host of political insiders to rally support for the plan.
The nonprofit agency that sponsored the project - The Miami-Dade Empowerment Trust - was supposed to monitor the developer's spending, but no reports were produced nor were any audits conducted, the newspaper found.
After the series was published, Miami-Dade County leaders killed the deal and broke all ties with the trust, while local prosecutors began a criminal investigation. After three months, prosecutors charged Stackhouse last week with improperly bundling campaign contributions. The investigation into the project's finances continues, prosecutors say.
While the newspaper was investigating the biotech deal, it was examining dozens of other projects sponsored by the Empowerment Trust - the subject of the current series that begins today.
To report the stories, reporters reviewed more than 300 resolution files from the agency, culling through thousands of pages of memos, correspondence, receipts and contracts to track the trust's efforts in combating poverty.
The reporters also examined dozens of lawsuits and bankruptcy cases, property records, nonprofit tax filings from the Internal Revenue Service and thousands of documents from other county agencies, including the Office of Community and Economic Development.
To verify job numbers the trust filed with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, reporters sifted through hundreds of pages from 15 progress reports the trust submitted to HUD this year and compared them to the agency's own internal files.
The comparison showed that the trust created eight of the 310 jobs it claimed in reports to HUD.
Reporters also interviewed scores of small-business owners scattered throughout the county and visited dozens more.
To measure the effectiveness of the empowerment zone program, the newspaper analyzed 16 years of demographic data from the U.S. Census and Claritas, a private research firm.
Because the empowerment zone program uses geographic areas created by the U.S. Census Bureau - called Census tracts - to identify neighborhoods, the newspaper relied on data from Claritas, the only source for current tract-level data available.
Although Claritas does not rely on the one-in-six sample used by the U.S. Census to report economic statistics, it is cited by many academic, corporate and government papers as a reliable source of economic and demographic data.
In fact, the U.S. Government Accountability Office cites Claritas economic data in a September 2006 report to Congress regarding the status of empowerment zones nationwide.
As part of its analysis, the newspaper examined various economic indicators from the 1990 and 2000 censuses, including family poverty data, workforce and employment statistics and median household income.

Menlo commission votes that turning over city property to neighbors follows general plan
Original post made on May 7, 2013

It is curious indeed that it takes six full paragraphs of the Almanac's coverage before a reader learns that last night's 4-2 vote actually went in favor of abandonment. The commission decided that abandonment is indeed consistent with the Menlo Park General Plan, which was the only question on its agenda. The headline of this article is therefore inaccurate. A 3-3 vote could fairly and accurately be described as a split vote, but a 4-2 vote is a win--for the applicants, for the rest of the homeowners on Louise Street who unanimously support abandonment, and for the hundreds of other Menlo Park residents who opposed the Sinnott driveway and support the efforts to protect the green space.
on May 7, 2013 at 3:34 pm
My thanks to the Almanac for quickly correcting the inaccurate headline and confusion about who won the vote last night.
on May 7, 2013 at 3:51 pm
For clarification: The Planning Commission did not vote to approve abandonment last night or whether it should or should not occur. It voted on whether abandonment would follow the general plan, which is a criteria considered as part of the abandonment process. The commission also discussed whether a driveway would have followed the general plan, although that was not up for a vote. The 4-2 split vote reflected a lack of consensus by the commissioners as to whether abandonment followed the general plan, with two members dissenting.

LEE COUNTY: Sometimes what's best for mom - is not best for her baby. Hospitals nationwide are seeing more pregnant women choosing to deliver early, in order to accommodate their busy schedules. But that decision comes with huge health risks for their babies.
What a difference a week makes.
"A baby's brain at 35 weeks is only two-thirds the size it is at 40 weeks. That's a huge amount of growth that baby does," said Dr. Mary Yankaskas, OB Medical Director at Lee Memorial Hospital.
Doctors at Lee Memorial say they've seen more women choose to induce birth or have C-sections at fewer than 39 weeks - thinking it's safe, when it's really not.
"They want to plan the exact day their child is born. They want to plan who their physician is. They want to plan having their family come in. They seem to plan their whole life around the delivery of their baby," said Chris Jabaay, Director of Labor and Delivery at Lee Memorial.
But research shows what's more convenient for moms has huge health risks for their babies.
Last year, Lee Memorial had just as many 35 week babies in their Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit as 38 week babies.
"Breathing problems, temperature problems, feeding problems, bonding problems," said Jabaay.
So the hospital has partnered with March of Dimes to launch a new initiative - completely eliminating elective deliveries before 39 completed weeks of pregnancy.
"When they learn that their baby's brain is not totally developed at 37 weeks, they are not wanting to deliver at all. They want to wait 39 or more," said Jabaay.
This would not apply to women who have medical issues and need to deliver early - only to women choosing to deliver early. Lee Memorial expects fewer admissions to their Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit and healthier babies.
"Changing our policies and our practices - doing what's best for the patients and for the baby," said Dr. Yankaskas.
Lee Memorial is one of six hospitals in Florida - the only one in Southwest Florida - that's part of this 39 week initiative. It has also been launched in New York, California, Texas and Illinois.

Appearance: hazy light amber with a medium sized white head. OK lacing.
Aroma: fresh american hops, citrus, pineapple, hints of pine and grass. Aroma isn't very intense, but is very refreshing and pleasant.
Taste: typical american pale ale, but just a bit more maltier I guess. Decent bitterness, mildly fruity, some resin notes, slightly earthy finish. Dry.
Mouthfeel: medium to low carbonation, medium bodied.
Overall: an everyday pale ale. Very tasty and refreshing but doesn't knock your socks off.

4.18/5 rDev +4.2%
Coming in a 330ml brown bottle, bottle-conditioned; bottled on 16/01/2014, served mildly-chilled in a straight pint glass.
A: pours a dark amber colour with light haze, coming with a very thin light beige foamy head with good retention, on top of mild but constant flows of carbonation.
S: like an American Pale Ale, aromatic with a good sweet pale malt backbone, in the aroma I could sense notes of lychee-ish and flowery hops as well as more piney elements, altogether so fragrant and juicy at the same time, while the pale malts provides a stable feed of sweetness in the background. Very nice.
T: nicely carbonated, the foretaste gives lots of impression of gristy pale malts with lightly nutty quality, followed immediately by a wave of juicy hops and spicy-tannic bitterness, underlined throughout by the lychee-shell like aroma – I wonder if Cascade hops are used in this brew? Mildly acidic notes go well with the otherwise lively bitter finish, while maltiness keeps its cool and renders just enough weight to buttress the other goodness throughout each sip.
M&O: very fresh comes the mouthfeel, well-conditioned in the bottle, superbly balanced, delicious and highly quaffable. To me this is a very very successful product, and I wish the quality will almost remain this good.

A 330ml bottle with a bottling date of May 2013. Picked up a little while back from Trembling Madness in York. The label describes it as an American-style pale ale.
Poured into a tulip pint glass. Bottle conditioned. A very hazy orange-amber hue with medium carbonation. Produces a huge head of creamy white foam with good retention; this steadily subsides to a thick surface layer. Some lacing. Aroma of bright, juicy hops with notes of grapefruit, lime, citrus, mild pine, white grape and faint tropical fruits. Underpinned by subtle caramel malt and earthy yeast. Simply amazing.
Tastes of intensely fruity hops with a dry, bitter finish. Notes of grapefruit, orange peel, citrus, white grape, melon, mild pine, faint tropical fruit, subtle caramel malt, earthy yeast and stewed hops. Crisp and well-attenuated, followed by a strident bitterness upon swallowing. Mouthfeel is smooth, tingly and lightly spicy, with soft carbonation and good body. Hop oils stimulate the palate. Slightly astringent, accompanied by an aftertaste of bitter aromatic hops, citrus and earthy yeast.
Impressive - an avalanche of hops on your tongue. Looks alright, if a tad yeasty, but the aroma and flavour are stunning. Fruity hops and a crisp bitterness; the definition of hoppiness. Decent body, though a shade more carbonation would have added texture. Lovely - I'd happy drink a barrel of it if I could. Well worth sampling if you have the chance.

Fourth Ward Councilman Kenneth Gist won Tuesday's Special Election by receiving 392 votes. Lisa White received 192 votes while incumbent Brad Burnett received 119.
According to Spartanburg County Elections Commission Director Henry Laye, the election was the first in Spartanburg County in which voters had to show at least one of five forms of identification in order to cast their vote. Laye stated that all voters presented their proper photo identification and no problems were encountered.
The election was held after last year's results in November's general election were thrown out due to a problem with the ballots.

New Pope Decides to Melt All the Gold in Vatican: Promises to Distribute to Poor Women Who Haven't Had Abortions
Original post made by Chris on Mar 14, 2013
Bergoglio's reputation for personal simplicity also exercised an undeniable appeal a Prince of the Church who chose to live in a simple apartment rather than the archbishop's palace, who gave up his chauffeured limousine in favor of taking the bus to work, and who cooked his own meals.
Now, earlier today, he announced that he intended to have all the gold in the Vatican melted down and distributed among poor heterosexual women in the Church who have heterosexual children and have never had abortions.
Some expressed concern that the Vatican, without its gold, is like Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" in black and white. "Is there a single material item in the Vatican that is not forged out of gold?" asked one dumbfounded worshipper? And ask another: "Where will all the poor people's donations to the Church go if not toward gold and sexual predation lawsuits?"

I think that it's wonderful that so many survivor's of sexual abuse by priests and nuns have won their cases and received settlements. VIVA!
Protect the innocent!

Billions of people cook for themselves. what's the big deal about riding a bus...duh
He's not likely to be much different that Pope Benedict. I don't understand the excitement about electing another Pope? I've always believed that a pope is a troublemaker...

In the Yucatan, a New Age fest turns into chaos
But tourism is still tourism, and there is certainly a reverence and respect for the Mayan culture being expressed by all the festival goers that I've talked to, even if this may be one in a series of culture moments that are part of this age of transformation and the creation of values that are different than the ones we've inherited from older generations.
As astrologer Rob Breszny told me, people are emotional beings, and there's something about transformation festivals that mark a moment and allow us to build on it, from the days of Woodstock through the annual exercise in community building that is Burning Man. And with this log thrown onto the fire, perhaps those interested in transformation will burn a little brighter.
Tulum is still pretty close to paradise, with its white sands beaches, warm clean seas, chill happy people, and wonderful off-the-grid abundance. Here, it's easy to commune with the natural world, which seems to be what this day calls for. Whether its the symbols in the sky created by the outlines of unfamiliar birds, or the dots of bioluminous organism on the beach as we celebrated the arrival of Dec. 21, they all seem portentous of something better.
Local Mayans: 1
Self-indulgent Rich San Francisco Hipsters: 0
As the Yucatan has developed its tourist infrastructure over the past few decades, the Mayans have not been at the table and as a result they are fast becoming minorities in their own land as others flock in for the loot. I'd seen this in coastal Oaxaca as well, where the Zapotec have been replaced by other Oaxacan mestizos, other Mexicans and, finally, Italians.
The influx of clueless gringos fleeing their own bankrupt culture and "spirituality" in search of someone else's to appropriate in what used to be your home never goes down well either when they come at the behest of growth boosters, whether in the Yucatan or San Francisco peninsulas.
And, Steven, the only place where you should rent a car in Mexico is in the Yucatan. The distances are manageable, prices reasonable, the infrastructure is some of the best in the country and it is pretty safe. Bus it everywhere else, drive it in the Yucatan.
Did you all at least get to ride bikes around Cobá?
Really? Reverence and respect for Mayan culture? Blasting base 24 hours a day, drowning out the sound of the ocean waves? Self indulgent assholes is more like it- I had fantasies of destroying the sound system myself. I felt like it would be a great form of torture boom boom boom all fucking day & night. Self centered raver assholes - I was 40km away in my cabana sleeping with ear plugs. My first vacation in 10 years since I'm not a trustafarian - people trying to emulate a hippy style - I'm A pissed atheist, but since these assholes had things fucked up for them maybe here is a god :)
synthesis was nothing like burning man.i am a long time burner and artist.the person that ran this event conned allot of people .period
Such a terrible end of the world haha

VISTA (CNS) - A man accused of fatally shooting his pregnant 18-year-old girlfriend and their unborn baby, then fleeing to Mexico, was ordered Tuesday to stand trial on two counts of murder.
Ruben Anthony Cepeda, 21, a documented gang member from Poway, faces 150 years to life in state prison if convicted.
Following a morning preliminary hearing at the Vista Courthouse, Judge Harry Elias ruled that enough evidence was presented for the defendant to stand trial in the April 7 deaths of Viridiana Rodriguez and their 4-month-old male fetus.
A Superior Court arraignment was set for July 10.
Deputy District Attorney Keith Watanabe said Cepeda and fellow gang member Jesse Juan Lopez were moving into a new apartment in Escondido when the shooting occurred sometime after 7 p.m. Two of the victim's sisters who were helping with the move were in the apartment on North Fig Street when the shooting occurred.
Escondido police Detective John Myers said one of the sisters, Yemely Rodriguez, told him that she was in a bedroom with sister Diana Rodriguez when she heard a noise in another bedroom and the victim crying out for help.
Yemely Rodriguez said she found her sister Viridiana on the floor with Cepeda kneeling next to her, Myers testified.
Cepeda said the shooting was an "accident" and that he was "sorry" and told Yemely Rodriguez to call 911, the detective testified.
Yemely Rodriguez said Cepeda told her he was going for help but disappeared, Myers testified.
In a second interview two weeks after the shooting, Yemely Rodriguez said she saw a gun in the bedroom and saw Lopez pick it up with a shirt, the detective testified.
Yemely Rodriguez told the detective that because of the stress of the situation, she had "visions" of Cepeda holding a gun in the bedroom but the defendant not knowing it was loaded, Myers testified.
Diana Rodriguez, Lopez's girlfriend, said she saw Cepeda and the victim standing face-to-face, then saw Viridiana Rodriguez on the ground. Viridiana Rodriguez and her unborn child died about an hour later at a hospital.
The witness said she saw Cepeda holding his girlfriend and saw a black gun on the ground.
Diana Rodriguez testified that she tried to call and text both Cepeda and Lopez but got no response.
She said that both the victim and Cepeda were happy about having a baby boy.
Lopez, 22, was detained in his Toyota Tundra about an hour after the shooting at the Otay Mesa Border Crossing and a man -- thought to be Cepeda -- was seen running from Lopez's car into Mexico, Watanabe said.
Border officials released Lopez, but he was charged two weeks later with being an accessory after the fact. He faces seven years behind bars if convicted.
Cepeda was stopped in Tijuana on June 11 and turned over to U.S. authorities.

It's probably impossible to listen to the Paper Cranes and not compare them to the Cure. Singer Ryan McCullah has that same fragile, whiny, ultimately lovable voice. The band sounds familiar and unique at the same time, combining the best of post-punk with all the catchy hooks and melodies of classic brit-pop.
Perhaps the Paper Cranes' greatest trait is their simplicity. Nothing is superfluous to the band's arrangements, and the drummer's predictable battering is enough to make Meg White proud. With songwriting sensibilities similar to Arcade Fire, minus the excessive orchestration, the Paper Cranes have the rare ability to make simple songs sound like epic heart-wrenchers.
The album's last track, "Deus Ex Machine Gun" is a successful foray into the realm of synth-pop, proving the band has more than a few tricks up their sleeve. If the impending full-length release is anything like this five-song teaser, the scenesters will be dancing till they burn through the rubber on their checkered Vans.
