Ramon Hernandez was found guilty today of vehicular homicide but was found not guilty of DWI in an accident that resulted in a stillborn birth.
Zach and Aileen Smith, who was 7 months pregnant with her baby Dimitri, were traveling through northern New Mexico in June of 2012 on their way to San Diego for their baby shower when their vehicle was hit. 43 year-old Ramon Hernandez of Las Vegas, NM pleaded not guilty to vehicular homicide and a felony DWI charge stemming from the accident. State Motor Vehicle Division records show that he had at least four prior DWI convictions, and his license was revoked when the crash with the Smiths took place.
Hernandez was found guilty of homicide by vehicle by reckless driving, great bodily harm by vehicle by reckless driving, and reckless driving. Hernandez was found not guilty of DWI.
Hernandez will be sent for a 60-day diagnostic evaluation, with a sentencing date still to be determined.

Poured jet black into an imperial nonic thick one finger deep beige crown atop that left multple ringes of lace as it settled into a frothy mass.Chocolate,roast,smoke,and fruity esters in the nose,it's very nice if it packed alittle more puch it would be off the charts.Full chewey feel to the beer really enhances the flavor nuances.Lightly smoked and earthy rawness mixed with bitter chocolate and mild fruit on the palate provide for a well rounded brew.A great beer in my mind,the best Clown Shoes beer I have had,a tad above Hoppy Feet 1.5.As I drink more some alcohol induced and molasses-like sweetness comes into play more.

Thanks, Kevin. Extremely dark. Densely sucking up all available light kind of dark. Nothing's shining through this dark bastard. Huge, pluming, creamy, long-lasting tan cap that froths up like a geyser and leaves copious sheets of lacing all the way down the glass. To hell with those big imperial stouts that can't leave behind any residual head - take notes on this one.
The aroma is a concoction of a chocolate malt mountain, light roasted malt rain, a hint of sweet smoke (almost like that liquid barbecue smoke) and a good bit of dark fruit sweetness. There's a shrill, sharp anise sweetness in the tail end, too, that cuts through everything else with ease. Can;t tell if this is going to be roasty or sweet, but it seems like it's leaning towards the sweet side.
Yep, it's pretty sweet. Not quite Dark Lord sweet, but still darn sweet. Heavy plum-y or grape-like fruitiness at first, that attacks that "dark fruit" sense, only not quite as dark as your typical imperial stout would imply. Milk chocolates beam through and heap on some more sweetness, as does a touch of that sweet, almost mesquite smokiness.
Roasty wood and a staunch, ashy and nearly-citric hoppiness in the middle do all they can to balance the sweetness. And while their efforts are valiant, they are indeed futile. Black licorice abound in the finish with more milky sweet maltiness. Needs more balance between the elements, I'm not all the way on board with this one yet.
The mouth feel is a bit too thin for such a heavy stout, and the booze becomes noticeable with a little bit of warmth, hindering the drinkability just a little bit more. Kind of a shocking meld of flavors; not at all bad or anything, just... well, not the best execution in my mind. The sweetness, while not necessary *over*done, just isn't piquing my interest of particular flavors.
I think this'll be a pass from me from now on, not only because of the price, but because I enjoy some of Clown Shoes' other available offerings much more than this one. The sweetness was more on the anise, dark fruit kind of side (though chocolate was still a big factor), but I really was yearning for more brown sugar, vanilla, etc... Not bad, just not exactly my thing.

In a tulip glass this beer was black in color with a medium-sized tan head. There was a bit of lace.
Aroma of chocolate and coffee. Some dark fruit. Nice, but not quite there.
Ah, but the taste more than made up for that. Dark chocolate primarily, but also a strong coffee taste. Some raisins also. Very nice.
Rich, with nice depth. I want more of these.

22 oz bottle. Pours dark brown black with a small tan head that goes to a thin film and laces the glass.
The aroma is roasted chocolate malts, some honey and a little cardboard.
The flavor is sweet chocolate malt with a lot of roast (bitter with some coffee) and a little vinous alcohol. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with low carbonation.
Overall, a decent imperial stout.

The beer pours a deep inky black color with a tan head. The aroma is full of heavily roasted malts with a little bit of chocolate and some alcohol thrown in. The flavor is a little more complex. I get a lot of roasted malt and a slight bit of char, as well as some dark chocolate and alcohol. There is also a little bit of sweetness that is similar to molasses. Medium carbonation and thick, full mouthfeel.

Pouring a thick, dark black, Vampire Slayer opens with a nose that perfectly fits the style and the brew's color, being heavy with coffee grounds, tobacco, and ash, balanced beautifully with heavy cream, and light finishing touches of caramel, vanilla, and anise. The heavy cream aromas are more present here than in many Imperial Stouts, and when combined with the coffees and alcoholic vapors, make this beer reminiscent of a Bailey's/Kahlua combo shot. There are a few hops in the nose, adding some pine textures, and it says much of the quantity of hops added that they're even detectable over the malt onslaught. As a whole, the nose is beautiful and enticing, suffering only slightly from an excess of cream and sweetness.
On the tongue, the beer opens dark, black, and ashy, rushing over the tastebuds in waves of black coffee, tobacco, and ash, enhanced with a black pepper and anise spice that emphasizes the burnt and bitter qualities. The sugars are somewhat less present here than in the nose, but there are still good rivers of cream and toffee running through the black meadows, giving the beer in some ways the same flavor profile as a shot of extra-strong espresso with whipping-grade heavy cream. Some flavors are lost in subsequent sips, the tastebuds perhaps simply overwhelmed and unable to keep up with the onslaught. Still, in subsequent sips the hops do make a larger appearance, bringing pine sap and bitterness. The ashy notes get stronger as the beer is held on the tongue and the sugars die off, and the aftertaste is heavily ash-based, lingering for a very long time. Mouthfeel is medium (though based on the flavors it feels like it should have more viscosity, which is somewhat surprising), and carbonation is medium-light to medium.
Overall, this is excellent Imperial Stout fare, though anyone not already a fan of big, black, ash-laden stouts will likely gag at the flavors. The beer really is like a cup of strong black coffee and a cigarette, as well as a small caramel candy held under the tongue. Personally, the combination is a huge success, and while I admit that the beer does perhaps suffer from what is perhaps an overabundance of ash (especially in the aftertaste, which becomes overwhelming at times), it still earns Clown Shoes a place of respect in my books.

kyleh says: This is one of the most original and fun games I've played. The individual levels are modeled after parodies of famous horror movies (including Evil Dead), and scaring people is FUN!
kyleh says: There are so many good things to say about this game. It's not perfect, but in terms of art and audio design it has nailed the world of the old school mad scientist perfectly. Gameplay is fairly complex and it can be very difficult to win.
kyleh says: I cut my RPG teeth on the M&M games. Magic, technology, and a very complete world story that swept me in for 8 straight games.
kyleh says: From the 20 minute cinematic intro to the giant ship this game came out of nowhere in it's day and was highly engaging. My favorite way to play was just to ignore missions and go around exploring.
kyleh says: 3 words, First Person Dungeons! Loved these games back in the day, they really set the conventions for many ambitious RPGs to come.
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

My new favorite climbing picture.
I second the nomination for this being a cool image. Nicely done
Not to be a hater, and those colors are awesome; but I hate the fake miniaturization/bokeh effect and how widespread it is.
Nice work with the tilt/shift lens. Gotta appreciate the pre-meditated work that goes into a shot like that.
Thanks for th comments. I have not checked this site in a while and have a ton more additions. It was shot with an Olympus evolt DSLR from the adjacent anchor. The out of focus was post production.

The National Capital Planning Commission released the draft SW Ecodistrict Plan for a 60-day public comment period running through Monday, September 10, 2012. The plan proposes to transform a 15-block predominantly federal precinct located just south of the National Mall into a highly sustainable, walkable neighborhood that connects the National Mall and the Southwest waterfront, and becomes a showcase of sustainable urban development and the site for new nationally significant memorials, museums, and events.
NCPC led this comprehensive planning process in partnership with 17 federal and District agencies, combined with input from private and public property owners and the public. The plan was also coordinated with the Maryland Avenue Small Area Plan, produced by the DC Office of Planning.

NCPC approved preliminary site and building plans for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Visitor Center as submitted by the National Park Service. In its approval the Commission noted that its June 2009 comments were addressed and that the center design is now consistent with design guidelines included in NCPC's Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) issued in conjunction with its approval of the center's site.
Proposed for a 5.2 acre site on the Lincoln Memorial's northern grounds, the underground center will educate the public about the Vietnam War and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. The two-level, approximately 37,000 gross square foot visitor center will house exhibit space, a bookstore, restrooms, and lobby space. The exhibits will focus on three themes: Making the Names Visible, The Wall Collection, and The History Timeline.

The Commission approved preliminary and final site and building plans for Phase 1 of the Intelligence Community Campus-Bethesda, as submitted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), except for final site development plans for landscape/hardscape, furniture, site security (including, among other items, bollard and barriers), and site lighting. Review of these elements was delegated to NCPC's executive director after design is completed and submitted. This first phase includes all redevelopment and new construction proposed for the site's North Campus. This action concluded deliberations that were deferred from the June 7, 2012 meeting.
The USACE plans to completely redevelop the approximately 39-acre site, former headquarters of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, into a secure campus for the Defense Intelligence Agency. The 12 acre North Campus is currently used primarily for surface parking. Plans for this area include replacement of existing parking lots with a parking deck, a small visitor parking lot, a new temporary vehicle entrance, vehicle inspection station, visitor control center, and related site and security enhancements.

In 1982 Microsoft licensed a version of a flight simulation game from a company subLOGIC Corporation and called it Microsoft Flight Simulator 1.0. Not only did the game become popular, but in those early days of PCs, the ability to run Microsoft Flight Simulator (and Lotus 1-2-3) was often used to test whether a machine was 100 percent compatible with the IBM PC.
Through the years, Microsoft has had media winners and losers. The Zune media player was a notable flop, but the Xbox 360 video game platform and community has become a rousing success, along with the Halo and Age of Empires series of games. Microsoft seems to be holding its own with its Windows Phone mobile devices, but there are a lot of people wondering whether its Surface tablets -- especially the lower-end Surface RT -- are innovative or a mistake.
Still, Microsoft's media system is a work in progress, being very strong in some areas such as gaming, and very weak in others, such as shopping and books.
Books and magazines
Predictions of the demise of printed books and magazines, brought on by digital media, have been premature -- but still, there's no denying that e-books and digital magazines are big business. An annual report from the Association of American Publishers and the Book Industry Study Group found that the entire consumer book market was $15.12 billion in 2012, of which $3.042 billion were e-books. And according to PricewaterhouseCoopers, by 2017 consumer e-book sales will overtake consumer print book sales, with a predicted $8.2 billion in sales. Here's how the ecosystems stack up.
When you think of Amazon, you think of books, and with good reason: It's the foundation upon which the entire Amazon empire was built. Amazon is the world's largest book retailer. Just consider the numbers: Amazon has an estimated 60 percent of the e-book market and an estimated 25 percent of the market for printed books, according to its competitor Barnes & Noble. Whether you're looking to buy physical books or e-books, Amazon is the place to go. And it sells magazines on its e-reader the Kindle, as well as from its website.
The ecosystem includes the Kindle e-reader hardware, but you're not limited to reading e-books purchased through Amazon on that. There are also Kindle reader apps for the PC, Mac, iOS and Android devices. And Amazon is more than just a bookseller; it's a publisher as well, with seven imprints that cover everything from science fiction to mysteries, romance, nonfiction and literary fiction. It's this simple: Amazon's ecosystem rules the book world.
Apple made a late entry into digital book sales in January 2010, with the introduction of iBooks. This free iOS app functions as a gateway for the iBookstore -- where e-books are available both for free and for purchase -- and is also used for storing these books, and for reading on Apple's mobile hardware lineup. The iBookstore carries over 1.75 million books in 155 countries, and prices start at free and don't often go higher than $14.99. These e-book files contain DRM, but follow the same rules as video: That is, you can share these books among up to five computers authorized to iTunes, and an unlimited number of iOS devices can be used as they're synced up to any one of the five computers.

Pears poached in red wine is a classic but not something that I've ever tried. If anything was going to soften these pears it was being simmered in alcohol. Not just any wine mind but Elderberry wine. Poaching pears is incredibly simple, takes around half an hour and is brilliantly tasty. I also quite like how the pears look afterwards; slightly over to one side almost as if they are drunk.
You will need:
Remove the pears when they're soft and then turn the heat up on the wine. Boil the wine until it has reduced to a thin syrup. Depending on the ferocity of your flame and how much evaporated while the pears were cooking this can take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes. Bear with it though and don't give in to impatience; pears in wine soup would I'm sure be delicious but it's not quite what you're after. Serve the pears with their syrup.
This is a pretty effortless pudding; you really just ignore the pears and they change from being hard and pale to soft and blushing. The colour is wonderful; as you dig your spoon into the pear the inside is almost glowing surrounded by an autumnal border. If you use normal red wine you may want to add a little extra sugar, I didn't add very much as the Elderberry wine was already fairly sweet. The pears flavoured the syrup and the wine flavoured the pears; an easy and decadently delicious dessert.

With training camp just over two weeks away, we thought we'd rewind and take a look at Bradley Handwerger's list of the ten most important - indispensable - Saints players, originally published in March.
We're not talking about best players; we're saying who means the most to the team at this moment.
One positive for the team is that none of the ten, nor the five 'honorable mentions' departed the team this offseason and only one appears to have a major contract squabble.
Click to see the list
Without giving away the entire 10 most indispensable Saints, we're fairly certain you can guess who No. 1 is.
This list is the view of WWL-TV.com sports writer Bradley Handwerger and not the station's. We welcome feedback in the comments section, we only ask two things – keep the comments clean and no personal attacks. There will be differences of opinion. It's what we love about America.

The Urban Garden Market opened up for the first time this season Saturday. This year they've partnered with the St. Joseph County Minority Health Coalition in order to address a "food desert" in South Bend.
By coming together the two groups hope to bring fresh fruits and vegetables to an area of the west side of South Bend that they say doesn't have easy access to healthy foods.
Karl Nichols of the Minority Health Coalition said that the market provides a great place for healthier options.
"It's not gonna happen going to your corner stores to try to be healthy cause they don't provide healthy items, healthy options. So this is a way to make it convenient for the community."
The Urban Garden Market will be open in its new location every Saturday through October 19th. They are still looking for vendors. If you are interested please call them at 232-4234.

A veritable plethora of hockey for you to enjoy today, as we start the morning off with the WJC Semifinal matchup between Canada and Finland, and end the night with the Canucks looking to get back...
I don't know if I can really get behind the Canucks/Sharks without Kyle Wellwood around. But I'll give it the ol' college try folks.
The Canucks have the night off but that doesn't mean we're not keeping an eye on other games. 6 in total tonight, 5 of them with playoff implications in the Western Conference. I love the stretch...
Sure open threads are fun, but even better when they include the speculation of an NHL superstar getting dealt away. Jarome Iginla is a healthy scratch tonight against the Colorado Avalanche. And...
I'm not sexist. No really I'm not. Just thought that was funny. Here's a new Open Thread for y'all to hang in, since the other one is full. Rock and roll! FUCK YOU, NHL!
GAME TIME: 6:00 PST TV: CBC, NBCSN, RDS GAME PREVIEW: NHL.com Obviously, the Kings have not lost 2 games in a row these playoffs. I expect a completely different effort / outcome from them in this...
Clearly we're wandering around the desert in the hockey world right now.
If the first free weekend in ten weeks doesn't signal the season is truly over then go check in on the Bruins' Cup parade today which should confirm it.

Slimmer Library: Debian Switches to EGLIBC
As Debian developer and package manager Aurélien Jarno says in a recent blog, Debian will soon switch from the standard GNU C library to the slimmer EGLIBC.
The Embedded GLIBC (EGLIBC) is an embedded system variant of the GNU C Library (GLIBC). Unlike GLIBC substitutes such as uClibc used up to now, EGLIBC provides optimum compatibility with the standard GLIBC so that embedded device developers can use the same GLIBC as with usual computers.
In his blog, Aurélien outlines the "nice points" for open development of EGLIBC, including that it's in a stabler branch for direct patch inclusion than the standard GLIBC. If EGLIBC were to completely replace GLIBC in Debian, the worst case would be compability issues of Debian packages in other distros. As of now, it's not yet clear if or when Ubuntu will switch to the slimmer EGLIBC.
Backers for EGLIBC consist of a consortium including FreeScale, MIPS, Montavista and Wind River, all having a strong interest in embedded devices on Linux.
Linux giant OS?"Linux has grown up very giant OS in years and mostly because it's design is a old fashion monolith OS."
Give me a break, windows 7 requires over 17GB while Linux only 2GB, so talk about giant OSes!
Linux old fashioned?? Another lame argument
How about OS then?
Debian seems to want to make system slimmer as possible. If they are now switching the most important system library to slimmer version, are they planning to switch linux operating system (kernel) to hurd as default too? Linux has grown up very giant OS in years and mostly because it's design is a old fashion monolith OS.
I believe that Debian should do as this far, offer multiple versions of the distribution. One version with Hurd OS and one, and the current default one with the Linux OS. Same thing with this system library, with glibc and this new C library.
Do not care about Ubuntu. It ain't doing anything special, just following what Debian does. Debian is the power and the source of Ubuntu's success and if Debian makes the choise, Ubuntu is forced to follow it, if it was to try to keep up the quality what they have (Thanks to Debian!!!). Ubuntu just flies under the Debian's wing.
The other distributions are the problematic question. Debian is needed to have compatibility to them and this is the great feature of Debian, it wants to be a Libre!

Business owners and employees returned to the boardwalk Friday to face a harsh reality. The fire has set many of them back to where they were almost a year ago when Sandy took their livelihood.
"My first thought was maybe the ashtray had caught fire from cigarette butts," said Brophy Sheen who recalls looking out the window of his job and smoke. He was unaware that Seaside Park boardwalk was going up in flames.
"By the time I got to the window I realized it's definitely not an ashtray," he said. Brophy started recording video with his cell phone at the first sight of smoke but quickly realized the Sawmill Café where he works as a waiter was in trouble.
"Within maybe 10 minutes I saw the flames come and engulf the building."
Friday he returned to the still active scene overwhelmed with worry.
"I just paid the rent so I'm good for the next month." But Brophy knows 30 days will come fast with no word on when he'll work again.
"We're going to be up and running hopefully in the next month or two. I don't'. I don't have answers," he said. The job also supports his three children who he's now worried about feeding.
"I'm concerned everyday about making ends meet."
Workers at other businesses tried to save inventory but ultimately lost everything.
"We had a police officer yelling saying you guys better get out of there. Once we got all the jerseys out we moved back and all of a sudden it started getting covered in smoke and flames," said a young man whose father owns a souvenir shop on the boardwalk.
Brophy says he feels lucky. The place where he works sustained mostly exterior damage.
"I'm glad that we're still here but I'm hurt that so many other people have lost so much. My son worked at Parks Seafood this summer and they were good to him. I'm sad to see that they lost everything."

This time, the Thompson Valley football team hopes, this one will count for good.
After defeating Golden last year in the season opener only to have the game forfeited because of an ineligible player, the Eagles left no doubt as to which was the superior team when they met again Thursday at Patterson Stadium.
The Eagles defense and special teams were dominant all night, starting with the opening series. That's when Bryce LaMarr blocked a punt that was caught in mid-air by Tyler Gonzalez, who then returned it 15 yards the other way untouched for a touchdown.
Other than one missed tackle that led to a long catch-and-run score a few series later, the night belonged to the Eagles, who rolled up 28 second-quarter points on the way to a 55-9 victory.
Talk about a successful debut for first-year head coach Matt Smith.
"It was a great win, a great way to start off the season," said Smith, who took over this season for Clint Fick after four years as an assistant. "We have some things that we need to clean up. That (second) drive defensively we were back on our heels, though we held them to three. I think that really got us started and fired up. Once the offense started clicking, we were able to make some big plays."
The blocked-punt-turned-touchdown was only the beginning for the Eagles' defense, which forced turnovers on three of four possessions in the second quarter -- interceptions by Jack Varuska, a fumble recovery by David Eusea and an interception by Aidan Gipson.
Each time, quarterback Garrett Smith and the offense were able to capitalize. First came a one-yard sneak by Smith, then Blake Firchau followed with a pair of scores, one from 30 yards out and another from 2 yards.
"The high energy from the defense was really feeding the offense," said Firchau, who finished with 45 yards on eight carries. "We just rolled with it, and that's how it ended up 55-9."
In between Firchau's touchdowns came a 47-yard passing score from Smith to Gunner Mengel, who had a field day every time he touched the ball, totaling 187 yards receiving on four catches, two of which went the distance.
The second-quarter barrage put the Eagles up 34-9, as the Demons' lone touchdown came midway through the second on an 78-yard catch-and-run from Jake McCormick to Danny Oertli. That cut TVHS' lead to 20-9, but that's as close as it ever got the rest of the way as the hosts quickly dashed any hopes of a Golden comeback by scoring twice more before halftime.
Touchdowns on its first two series of the second half -- a 5-yard run up the middle by Jake Hornick that included a dazzling spin move and a 28-yard scramble by Smith -- all but ended it.
While the offense eventually caught fire and never seemed to slow down, it was the Eagles defense that supplied the spark early and often.
"Turnovers are huge, and last year we were kind of on the other side of the turnover ratio," said Smith, whose team returns to Patterson next week Friday to host Skyline for homecoming. "When you protect the ball and make things happen on defense, you're able to make some big plays. That's how you win a ball game."

Remembering The Twilight Zone 54 Years Later
10/2/2013 (Updated 10:56:02 PM)He calls himself the son Rod Serling never had.
Arlen Schumer visited the Bundy Museum in Binghamton Wednesday to premiere his visual lecture "Westport in Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone."
The author, illustrator and lecturer has been studying Serling's works for years and has taken it upon himself to keep the Binghamton native's name and work alive. Schumer currently lives in Westport where Serling spent three years of his life and his presentation shows how the time he spent in Connecticut influenced his works.
"The Twilight Zone is a branch of 20th century surrealism but it also predates the psychedelic era. It was of its time and it's timeless which is the definition of a work of art," said Arlen Schumer, author of Visions From the Twilight Zone.
Wednesday marks the 54th anniversary of the premiere of the pilot episode for The Twilight Zone. Schumer will give his visual lecture at the Rod Serling conference in Los Angeles this November.

Spokane, WA (Sports Network) - C.J. Harris posted 19 points as Wake Forest rallied from a 13-point first-half deficit to down 17th-ranked Gonzaga, 77-75.
Ari Stewart had 17 points for the Demon Deacons (5-2), who snapped a two-game slide. Chas McFarland added nine points and eight boards in a winning cause as the Demon Deacons dealt Gonzaga just its fourth home loss at the McCarthey Athletic Center since it opened for the 2004-05 season.
Matt Bouldin's game-best 22 points wasn't enough for the Bulldogs (6-2), who saw their five-game win streak halted. Bol Kong added 12 points and Steven Gray had 11, but missed two key free throws late which could have pulled Gonzaga even.
Down 76-73, two Bulldog tries from beyond the arc in the final 15 seconds clanged off the rim, but Al-Farouq Aminu fouled Gray on his attempt with 8.1 on the clock. Gray hit the first, missed the second and let the last one fall off the rim intentionally, but Stewart was fouled on the defensive rebound.
He made the first for a 77-74 game but missed the second, grabbed by Bouldin, who also made the front end of his two tries for a two-point game with 3.5 to play. A lane violation gave the ball to Wake Forest, which managed to keep the ball out of harm's way as time expired.

Report reveals problems at Fort Drum's Warrior Transition Battalion
Fort Drum, NY, Mar 01, 2012 — A unit at Fort Drum charged with helping wounded soldiers transition to civilian life was given a scathing review in a report by the Department of Defense Inspector General's Office. According to the report, the Warrior Transition Battalion was seen as a "dumping ground" rather than a place to help soldiers heal. Medical recommendations were ignored, and morale was low, with some soldiers saying they'd rather be in jail or being "shot at in Iraq" than in the battalion. Joanna Richards reports.

Out-of-work San Franciscans descend upon City Hall with a special holiday request
San Francisco workers and advocates deliver 1,000 Christmas cards asking Mayor Newsom to sign community's local hiring law by Christmas Eve
by Brightline Defense Project
Workers and advocates brought 1,000 Christmas cards signed by residents of Bayview Hunters Point, Chinatown, the Mission, the Tenderloin, South of Market and other neighborhoods asking the mayor to "put the Merry into Christmas and the Happy back into New Year" by signing the landmark jobs measure sponsored by Supervisor John Avalos by Christmas Eve. As recounted by the San Francisco Bay Guardian, two Santa Claus bags full of Christmas cards were delivered to the Mayor's Office, with Chief of Staff Steve Kawa accepting them in the mayor's absence. "These are awfully heavy," Kawa commented.
Last week, Bayview-based job advocates Aboriginal Blackmen United (ABU) circulated a letter to Mayor Newsom with the "put the Merry into Christmas" jobs slogan attached, and the letter reached Newsom himself late last Friday. The idea caught on, with community advocates Brightline Defense Project printing up 1,000 more cards, on 100 percent recycled paper no less, and working with ABU and other organizations such as Chinese for Affirmative Action, PODER, the A. Philip Randolph Institute and the SF Bay View newspaper to collect signatures from unemployed workers, activists and concerned citizens throughout the city.
ABU's Joseph Greene, an out-of-work member of the Cement Masons union trying to work his way into the Laborers union, could be seen collecting signatures in every neighborhood in San Francisco over the past several days. Supervisors Avalos, Bevan Dufty and Eric Mar even got in on the action, penning local hiring Christmas cards to Mayor Newsom.
San Francisco's local hiring law is believed to be the nation's strongest, requiring 20 percent of all workers within each construction trade to be local residents starting in 2011, with an emphasis on workers from disadvantaged backgrounds and neighborhoods. That number will increase 5 percent annually, as local workers join trades where community representation is lacking, before reaching 50 percent. An op-ed this week by Assessor-Recorder Phil Ting noted that the local hiring law will strengthen the city's middle class tax base by creating jobs, while the City Controller estimates the measure will pump $270 million into the local economy over the next 10 years.
"Didn't the San Mateo Supervisors bother to read our legislation?" was the refrain heard around San Francisco City Hall yesterday, however, as both the Airport and the Water System Project were specifically exempted from the measure that currently sits on Mayor Newsom's desk, leaving an estimated 20 jobs demolishing the San Bruno jail as the only work in San Mateo County impacted by the San Francisco local hiring ordinance. The Avalos law would require four of those jobs for San Francisco residents if that project goes forward next year.
"We're here to say that we are not going to let these San Mateo politicians who can't even read ruin our Christmas," said ABU president James Richards, a journey-level member of the Electricians union and a union contractor, who came up with the local hiring Christmas card idea. "We want the mayor to stand with us instead of them and put the Merry into Christmas."
"Mayor Newsom has in front of him a law that works for the city, for the region, for labor, for contractors and, most importantly, for our unemployed and job-hungry communities," said Brightline Executive Director Joshua Arce, who worked with Supervisor Avalos and advocates from the Bayview, Chinatown and the Mission to help craft San Francisco's local hiring policy. "This is a Christmas gift nearly 50 years in the making."
Advocates visiting Mayor Newsom Wednesday had hoped that the mayor would come out from his office to greet them and sign the community's local hiring law. Instead, however, they found the door to his office, Room 200, locked tight. Eventually Chief of Staff Steve Kawa emerged smiling – though he closed the door behind him – to accept the thousand colorful cards packed into two of Santa's red bags.
On Thursday, Mayor Newsom announced he would neither sign nor veto local hire, saying, according to the San Francisco Chronicle blog City Insider, "he had reservations about parts of it and wanted the city to pursue reciprocity agreements with neighboring counties. Since his move was short of a veto, the measure will go into effect in 2011. …
"Even if Newsom had tried to kill the measure, his veto likely would have been overturned. A veto-proof majority of the board had approved the measure earlier this month on an 8-3 vote."
A jubilant Supervisor John Avalos proclaimed victory Thursday evening on his Facebook page: "Get out your hammers, your levels and your measuring tapes. Local hire is the law of the land in Frisco!"
Brightline Defense Project is a non-profit civil rights advocacy organization dedicated to protecting and empowering communities. Brightline's efforts have led to the prevention of a new power plant in Southeast San Francisco and increased employment opportunities for economically disadvantaged residents, particularly in the green jobs sector.

Congradulation, San Francisco have never had a community hiring policy since the old Model Cities Program for the Mission District and Bay View Hunters Point. That hiring practice was a healthy economic stimulus to the well being in the community. Please formulate a Community Ad Hoc Committee as a a watch dog to assure the success of San Franciscians first. Passing a law is one thing, enforcement is another. Formulate a 501-c-3 Non-Profit organization with full funding to crunch the numbers(Contract projection), follow the (Contract)bouncing ball and tract those on the jobs to assure its success. This will not work inside the Hiring Halls of the Unions, because of past sweetheart deals between Union and Management. This is the people opportunity, think about carrying your model to other cities in need of your expertise. God bless you Willie and Mary for your community service for little people.↓

Connecting the dots….
We hear it every day. States and the federal government are having to reduce funding for essential human services, (Some people call such services "entitlements". The definition of "entitlements" is then twisted in order to frame such services as hand outs to the 'undeserving'.) Those who do not agree that everyone is "entitled" to a decent job paying family-sustaining wages, adequate housing, health care, good public education, and security in retirement, are in league with labor-haters like the Heritage Foundation.
According to a 2008 study by economists Joseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes, the Iraq war will cost us $3 trillion and more. (They have since revised that figure to $4+ trillion.) Other respected economists, including Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugman, are in agreement with Stiglitz and Bilmes. Their findings can be accessed at:
The report tells us that federal discretionary funding for states and municipalities is being reduced because federal funds are being diverted to prosecute two wars. The several trillion dollar Bush tax cuts for the rich have likewise taken their toll. Federal and state programs are going under-funded because money is being siphoned-off by war profiteers and the top 5%.
When there are downturns in the economy public workers, and especially unionized public workers, find themselves in the crosshairs. Publicly funded community agencies suffer the same fate. Incredibly, sadly, the bleating of groups like the Heritage Foundation are too often joined by working class antagonists. (It seems that as long as their ox isn't being gored everyone else is fair game!)
Connect the dots! War, tax breaks for the rich, and politicians beholden to the wealthiest 5% are crippling our economy! Worse, however, is the social and economic injustice that is harming the most vulnerable amongst us. Rather than addressing those national maladies, too many people are looking for the easy way out, and pubic employees and funding for essential human services are convenient targets.
85% of Americans earn less than $100,000 per year (55% have incomes below $50,000). Isn't it time for us to look out for one another rather than continuing to cede our power to a tiny fraction of super rich power brokers (and their stooges we call "lawmakers")? A starting point is letter writing to newspapers as a way to change the national dialogue. Resolutions to city, county, and state governmental bodies is another. But make no mistake about it, more activism will be needed. As Frederick Douglas stated, "If there is no struggle there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet depreciate agitation…want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightening. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters…. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will."↓
He hasn't signed this thing yet? Wasn't it passed way last year?↓

New Jersey tea is a small shrub with ornamental, fragrant flowers. Benefits pollinators, drought tolerant.
Ceanothus americanus is a multi-stemmed, small shrub with ornamental, white fragrant flowers. The shrub tolerates shade and dryness and thick, woody roots help it to withstand periods of drought.
During the American Revolutionary War, the leaves of the shrub were used as a tea substitute, hence the common name New Jersey tea.
The shrub is beneficial to wildlife, providing nectar for hummingbirds and butterflies and seeds for songbirds.

Life After Patrick: Remembering My Husband, Patrick Swayze
By any measure, Lisa Niemi and Patrick Swayze had an exceptionally close marriage. By Hollywood standards, its endurance was astounding. The pair met as teenagers in Houston, at his mother's dance studio, and wed four years later. They cheered each other on as struggling actors and survived the stresses of celebrity couplehood after Swayze shot to fame in the 1987 blockbuster Dirty Dancing. They raised horses together, copiloted planes and costarred in two movies (Steel Dawn and One Last Dance, which Niemi also directed). They sometimes veered toward the rocks, propelled by Swayze's bouts of depression-fueled drinking, but somehow they always managed to regain their bearings.
Then, shortly before their 33rd wedding anniversary, Swayze was diagnosed with stage IV pancreatic cancer. Doctors gave him a few weeks to live. Yet he survived for nearly two years, shooting a TV series (The Beast) and renewing his vows to Niemi in a joyful ceremony at their Los Angeles ranch before his strength failed. She nursed him to the end and held him as he took his last breath, in September 2009, at age 57. Her moving memoir of their final struggle, Worth Fighting For, was just released. Niemi, 55, spoke with LHJ on the ranch's sunny patio.
LHJ You started writing your book just months after Patrick's death. What drove you to tell your story?
LN There are plenty of books about divorce, but nobody ever talks about what happens when a marriage actually works. In the wedding vows, it's "till death do you part." It's so hard to wrap your mind around that parting, but at some point, we're all faced with it. And nobody's prepared for it.

While initial reports suggested that Matt Holliday's appendectomy might knock him out of action for at last three weeks, Fox Sports Midwest reports that Holliday might not even be placed on the Disabled List:
The Cardinals plan to wait until Monday or Tuesday before deciding whether or not to put Holliday on the disabled list. Some players have returned from similar injuries in 7-10 days while others have missed 3-4 weeks.
Doctors were able to remove the appendix before it ruptured, potentially minimizing the amount of time he will have to miss.
During Sunday night's Giants-Dodgers game, ESPN's Buster Olney reported the same thing after talking to St. Louis general manager John Mozeliak. Olney also pointed out that Andres Torres missed only 11 days after his appendectomy last season.
Obviously, in a highly competitive National League Central, the Cardinals would like to see Holliday back in the lineup as soon as medically possible.

By John Toole
---- — PELHAM — Robin Dougherty and Donna Campbell want you to get fresh with them — fresh corn, fresh beans, fresh cukes, fresh tomatoes.
The women staff the farmstand that opened this summer at 28 Mammoth Road.
It's quickly become the community attraction town officials hoped for when they approved it.
"If they are not in good spirits when they come in, they will leave here in good spirits," Dougherty promises. "People come. We walk, we talk, we laugh, we tell stories."
It's all about the vegetables and fresh is the word.
Cars regularly pulled in and out of the farmstand on a recent afternoon, with customers prowling the tables.
"We've got the best corn around," Dougherty said. "Sweet. Just like eating an apple."
Squash, peppers, water melon, apples and eggs filled the tables.
Steve Poulin rolled in, a first-time customer from Manchester.
"I've been driving by for a month," he said.
"Fresh" was the attraction that finally drew him from the road, he said.
Campbell said customers are coming from all over the area, from either side of the border.
"Weekends are unbelievable here," she said.
Concha Devlin lives in Tyngsboro, a satisfied returning customer.
"Today, I'm buying corn and cucumbers," Devlin said. "I love it. I'm from Spain and I'm used to fresh vegetables."
Jack Lloyd lives in Pelham. He said this was his fourth or fifth visit.
"The corn on the cob is very good here," Lloyd said. "I like having a local place where I can get stuff."
Lloyd has a second home in Moultonborough, but will shop this farmstand instead of one of the many in the Lakes Region.
"I buy here and take it up there," he said. "This is as good or better."
Helen Carver came over from neighboring Dracut.
"I love it here. I really do," Carver said. "You know you are going to get fresh produce that hasn't been on a truck for two days."
Carver said prices are comparable to the grocery stores. Corn was selling for $6 a dozen.
"But you know you are going to get fresh produce here," she said.
The place opens by 8 a.m. and stays open until 6 p.m.
Third-generation farmer John Grzesik, 73, is operating the farmstand in association with Franklin and Frederick Nietupski, owners of farm land on Mammoth Road.
Dougherty said Grzesik often is first to the farmstand.
The farmstand staff recommends customers arrive early for the best selection of produce.
This isn't one of those stuffy farmstands.
"We let our customers do whatever they want: pick 'em up, feel," Campbell said.
They even will spare you the mess at home.
"I allow them to shuck their corn," she said.
The farmstand has more season to go. Plans call for staying open through October.
Bottomline, business has been very good this summer.
"We've been busy every day since we've been here," Campbell said.

1999 Mastroberardino Radici Taurasi Riserva
"The 1999 Taurasi Radici Riserva is simply beautiful. Sweet dried cherries, licorice, menthol and spices waft from the glass. Made in an elegant style, this complex Riserva shows some of the slightly advanced and oxidized flavors one might reasonably expect from 10 year-old wine, yet the balance is utterly compelling. The finish is long, sweet and ethereal, as pretty suggestions of mint come back to frame the wine beautifully."

European Modules
FRAMEWORK and APPROACH
February 2010 (revised in May 2011)
General approach
A flexible five step training approach
Thematic planning
Facilitators' team
Target group and profile
Nomination of participants
Travel and accommodation
Certification and recognition of participation
Pestalozzi network of trainers
How to participate
The European Module Series are directed at trainers working in the field of education and wishing to improve their knowledge and to develop their skills in the priority fields of the Council of Europe, namely, democracy, human rights and the rule of law. The modules offer a unique experience in a stimulating international environment which gathers trainers coming from across Europe and beyond1.
The training includes 5 phases at the end of which the participants will be invited to submit a proposal of educational training materials that they will have designed, tested and improved throughout the course. Participants are expected to invest about 120-150 hours to accomplish the training which is spread over 12 to 18 months.
While European political leaders have recognised the school as a major actor regarding the transmission of democratic values, the respect of human rights and the building of the rule of law, it is however difficult to develop meaningful and appropriate educational materials and resources adapted to the realities of European teachers. More precisely, the European Modules aim to:
› Raise awareness and provide training for trainers on the priority themes of the Council of Europe (democracy, human rights and the rule of law).
› Co-develop educational resources for training
› Create a network of expert trainers
› Disseminate the training resources
General approach
The work is based on three main pillars:
- Content : standards and principles as well as project results of the Council of Europe.
- Methodology: learner centered, peer-training, collaborative work on issues of common concerns to find fit solutions for diverse contexts.
- Four-fold concept of competences development: developing sensitivity and awareness, knowledge and understanding, individual practice, societal practice.
A flexible five step approach
The training programme is based on a flexible approach that allows participants to pursue their various activities while continuing the programme. The Module Series spreads over nearly 18 months and consists of five steps in which only two (Module A and B) require the participants to travel across Europe. For the other steps of the training, participants are free to carry out their collaborative work according to their priorities and agenda but within the time limits set by the programme. For that purpose, exchanges between participants are facilitated by a social networking platform.
1- Planning and preparation (6 to 8 months): The goal is to establish the priorities of the training, to share documents and training materials and agree on a common project calendar.
2- Module A (4 days): This kick-off workshop gathers participants in the same place and is designed to lay down the basis of the collaborative work, to establish priorities and to develop the foundations on which the participant will collaborate.
3- Development and piloting (6 months): This phase is conceived to elaborate educational training activities in connection with the theme of the Module Series. Once designed, the activities proposed by the participants will be tested.
4- Module B (3 to 4 days): This follow-up workshop gathers participants in the same place where they are encouraged to exchange experiences on the challenges faced during the piloting phase and to find personalised solutions to their common challenges.
5- Editing and dissemination (2 to 3 months): Participants have two to three months to finish the drafting of their educational training resources. The materials will then be selected, formatted and made available via the website of the Pestalozzi Programme. The production of selected training materials in the form of interactive CDs will also be considered.
Thematic planning
The themes for the module series together with their specific focus are decided by the Secretariat of the Pestalozzi Programme after consultation with the relevant units in the Education directorate. Since 2006, 7 themes have been explored:
- EDC (education for democratic citizenship) core competences for all teachers (2009/2010)
- Education for the prevention of crimes against humanity (2009/2010)
- Media literacy based on human rights (2009/2009
- Education for linguistic and cultural diversity (2007/2008)
- History teaching with a focus on multiperspectivity (2007/2008)
- Intercultural education (2006/2007)
- Education for democratic citizenship and human rights (2006/2007)
Four Module series will take up the following themes:
In 2010/2011
- Diversity of world views and world knowledge in the classroom
- Pestalozzi core knowledge, skills and attitudes for all teachers
In 2011/2012
- Education for the prevention of discrimination
- Education for the prevention of violence in schools
Facilitators' team
Each module series is supported by a team of facilitators selected by the Secretariat after a « Call for Trainers » and consists of 3 expert trainers selected on the base of their theoretical knowledge, practical experiences and competences in training.
Target group and profile
Participants should come from a pre-service or in-service training context of formal or non-formal education. More precisely, the programme favours the participation of:
- Trainers of trainers
- Trainers of teachers in either pre-service or in-service training contexts
- Other multipliers (authors of textbooks, university professors in the field of education…)
Participants have to demonstrate their experience and their interest in the theme of the Module series. They also need to be competent users of at least one of the two official languages of the Council of Europe: English or French.
Nomination of participants
The Modules are designed for a maximum total of 55 participants:
- One or two participant(s) from each of the 50 signatory states of the European Cultural Convention selected and nominated by the respective national authorities (members of the Steering Committee of Education and by the National Liaison Officer for the Pestalozzi Programme).;
- Up to 5/6 participants from countries of the southern Mediterranean selected by the Anna Lindh Foundation and/ or ALECSO.
Travel and accommodation
For participants coming from the 50 signatory states of the European Cultural Convention travel and accommodation costs are covered by the Council of Europe in cooperation with the authorities of the country hosting one of the modules. For participants coming from Southern Mediterranean countries the costs are covered by their respective sending organisation.
Certification and recognition of participation
The participants receive two certificates. The first one at the end of Module A is to certify that they are participating in the module series on the chosen theme. The reason for this is that an official certification of their participation can help to justify the amount of time and work they invest in this collaborative work under the umbrella of the Council of Europe.
The second certificate after Module B certifies the completion of the training programme including information on the duration and intensity of the training.
Pestalozzi Network of trainers
Trainers who have completed a training cycle and who are interested in staying actively involved in the work of the Pestalozzi Programme form the Pestalozzi Network of Trainers and are asked to participate in the work of Programme in different ways:
- specific projects to further develop the programme (identification of core elements, evaluation and assessment of soft skills, methodology, etc)
- participation in the plenary meetings of the network of National Liaison Officers of the Pestalozzi Programme
- facilitating training activities (modules, seminars, workshops, targeted cooperation activities with particular countries or regions, etc)
- participation in think tank activities providing feedback on project results of the Education directorate
- etc
