We citizens have a guaranteed constitutional right to free speech, which means government cannot abridge the people's opinions in thought or in speech.
It's the foundation upon which this country was built, and from which all other rights extend.
If we believe that our government is a government of the people, conversely that means that our government officials have protection from "we the people" infringing on officials' free speech.
That's the dramatic irony about the dustup over Mayor Robert Macdonald's recent comments regarding immigrant culture and American assimilation.
Citizens in this country proudly enjoy the right to free speech, but some among us don't want that right to extend to Macdonald? Why not?
He's a citizen. We're the government. If "we the government" demand he keep quiet on matters some of us may not agree with, aren't we in violation of the very constitutional protections we hold so dear?
We are.
Should Macdonald be forced to resign? For speaking his mind? Absolutely not.
He made no oath of political correctness, nor does the city charter have a recall provision to remove him from office.
Morever, as Council President Mark Cayer so appropriately and heartfeltly pointed out on Thursday, that charter doesn't give any councilor or the mayor more power to voice his or her opinion than any other person. The mayor, while representing his constituents in Lewiston, doesn't speak for them or for his fellow Council members.
"Like any individual councilor," Cayer said, "the mayor's comments and beliefs are his own."
Like it or not.
Do we wish the mayor had polished his thoughts about immigrant residents of Lewiston before presenting them? And then repeating them?
Absolutely. We believe his comments were unfortunate and we hope he will, if he has not already, reconsider the meaning of culture and how his remarks — any remarks — are interpreted by others. He is, after all, the top elected official in Lewiston and people look to him for guidance and understanding.
But, no matter what others may think of what he has said, he has the right to say it. And plenty of people have thanked him for doing so.
Our constitutional protection to free speech doesn't guarantee our words have to be politically correct or even kind. We don't have to agree with every spoken word. We don't have to like another person's opinion. We don't even have to like the person making the utterance.
We do, however, have to respect every person's right to speak. If we don't, we risk eroding our own personal protections to do the same.
"We are a diverse group with many different philosophies," Cayer said of the City Council, a sentiment that applies to humankind.
"As we move forward," he said, "it is vital that we consistently act upon the fact that people are people. Period. There is no room for separations of "us" or "them." Here in Lewiston, it is important that we be known as a united community, a group of people working together for the benefit of all of us."
Well said.
And, if there's action to be taken here, it is not resignation. It is confrontation about what makes this community great and what we must do to make it better. What makes the people who live here valuable and what we can do to improve our lot. And, perhaps most importantly, what we want the world to think of us.
This is a unique community filled with good people.
Let's celebrate that and proclaim it to the world.

We caught up with Capt. Brad Philipps recently. If you don't know who Brad is, you should. He's caught and released more billfish over the past decade than anyone on the planet. Brad's released an astounding 23,000 billfish during the last 11 years in Guatemala, averaging roughly 15 billfish releases per trip. In the process, he's won numerous accolades, including The Billfish Foundations' Release Captain of the Year Award 10 years running.
Brad calls Guatemala home these days, running his 40-foot Gamefisherman, Decisive, in the billfish-rich waters of the Pacific and operating his excellent lodge, Guatemalan Billfishing Adventures, alongside his wife Cindy. But before that, Brad fished all over the world, from his South African homeland to legendary billfish destinations such as Australia, New Zealand and Madeira.
The best thing about Brad is that he's exceedingly intelligent and enthusiastic. There's no better interview on the subject of offshore fishing in all the sport. And so, we got to talking briefly on the subject of trolling.
SF: Brad, you're one of the best trollers in the business. What is it about trolling that gets your juices going?
BP: Trolling gives one the opportunity to cover ground and look, Mike. It adds the element of the hunt to the game. You are not just waiting for things to happen, you make things happen.
SF: When did you first start fishing offshore?
BP: Probably 25 years ago, or more.
SF: What's more fun, in your mind -- trolling lures or baits for billfish? And which is more productive? I imagine it depends on the situation.
BP: Yeah, it all depends on the situation, the target species, species' size, the angler's choice and ability, the crew's experience, boat set-up, etc. But my favorite is a mix of either lures and teasers -- which you'll replace with a pitch bait -- or baits and teasers. It brings the best of all worlds together.
SF: I know a lot of captains talk about positioning lures or baits in certain areas on the boat wake. Do you do that? And, if so, why?
BP: Yes, very much so. First off, I like larger lures closer to the boat, and smaller lures farther back. Position them in clearer boat-wake channels. I also like to run larger teasers short, with smaller hooked lures further back. Or teasers short and hooked baits further back. If the fish does not tease, there is something with a hook to fall back onto.

Scouting Music Video Locations for Cheap Red Wine!
I had a fun day driving through the 'burbs I love best to scout out some music video locations for "Cheap Red Wine", which is scheduled for shooting next month. We're shooting on the RED! (Scarlet I believe?) Major thanks to Louis Maddalena, who will be executing this project on his beautiful camera. Definitely a bunch of work to be done and I can't tell you everything right now—but we are thinking this spot may make for some pretty music movie magic…can you guess where this is upside down?

© Copyright 2014 Clayton News Daily
By Joel firstname.lastname@example.com When your grease trap's full, and it doesn't look good ... who you gonna call? The Environmental Compliance Division of the Clayton County Water Authority (CCWA). Since August 2001, when the program was started, the Environmental Compliance Division of the CCWA, often called the "Grease Police," has been on a mission to educate restaurateurs, food servers, and the general public about the dangers of improperly disposing of grease. The division is also tasked with monitoring the grease trap levels of more than 800 county establishments that serve food, to make sure large amounts of grease never make it to waste-water treatment centers. Jim Poff, CCWA water reclamation department manager, explained that large amounts of grease can wreak havoc on the county's sewer system and make the treatment of waste water much more difficult. "We have hundreds of miles of sewer lines that are part of the conveyance system that brings sewage to our plants," said Poff. "Part of the job with maintenance is to make sure that there are no blocks in the line. When people discharge grease into the system, it contributes to blockages." Blockages can cause "the waste water to come out of the manholes and come on to the ground, and that is totally not acceptable," Poff added. "The pump stations can't operate properly because it has a huge grease mat in there when it should just be waste water." Monte Ellis, an environmental compliance inspector with the CCWA, said the little bit of grease that comes off of dirty dishes "will go a long way" toward creating problems in the water treatment process. Ellis and a team of other inspectors regularly travel to restaurants, schools, daycare centers, hospitals, retirements facilities, and other places that serve food to make sure they have a grease trap, that the grease traps are emptied regularly, and that the grease in them is disposed of in an environmentally safe manor. "We're trying to make sure that all of the restaurants are pumping out their grease, so it doesn't get into our sewers," Ellis said. All restaurants in Georgia are required to have a grease trap, which traps grease that drains from sinks, floors, and preparation tables. Many older restaurants have indoor grease traps, which are required to hold at least 50 gallons, while many new restaurants have outdoor grease traps, which must be able to hold at least 1,500 gallons. Indoor grease traps must be emptied every month and outdoor grease traps must be emptied every three months. Every time traps are emptied, they are tracked by a manifest which shows when the trap was emptied, who emptied the trap (and if they are certified), and where the grease was taken. If the traps are consistently over 25 percent full, the Grease Police have the power to issue an immediate pump order, charge fines of up to $1,000, and have the CCWA shut off water to the restaurant. Ellis said, however, that the CCWA has never had to resort to extreme measures, largely due to the education efforts of the Environmental Compliance Division. In addition to monitoring, the division also runs a Grease Education Program at apartment complexes and schools, handing out educational brochures and deputizing children to make sure their parents are disposing of grease properly. "We give things to the kids so they can write up a ticket," said Ellis. "It excites the kids because it's something that they can say their parents are doing." Ellis said the food service industry in Clayton has responded well to the efforts of the Grease Police. "If we're having a problem with some restaurant, we'll red flag them, but since we started the program, the majority of the restaurants have been pretty good about being in compliance."

Great instructor! A great mentor for anyone interested in psychology. She gives you the tools to make learning easy, diagnostic and class activities are reinforcing what you learn in class. Extra credit fair for attending psychology campus meetings. I appreciated the personalty test she made available to the class.
Great teacher. Make sure to do the study guides.
Make sure you do the study guides because the tests come directly from them. The study guides are very long. It was an interesting class oveall. The problem with this instructor is that it takes her forever to post any grades on Canvas and sometimes her directions are not clear on every assignment.
She is serious when it comes to the class and assignments, but I really loved her style of teaching. Make sure you do the study guides because they're word for word. She made Abnormal Psych even more interesting. My only problem with her is that it takes her forever to post any grades on Canvas.
The class itself is easy if you choose to do all of the assignments, especially the study guides. If you do the study guides, which are very long, you are almost guaranteed an A on the tests. All other assignments should take ten minutes max.
Mrs. Reeder was a very good teacher. While I did not always understand the concepts, she was very clear and helpful. She encourage us a lot.
Took online class over summer! EASY but you definitely learn. Incorporates video clips and music which helped stress info. Test is straight from study guide! If you spend the time to do work you should get A!
I took the online class, which was very easy. Read the chapter, post 2 blog responses per wk, take online quiz (which can be retaken until u get 100%), test over 3 chapters multiple choice using scantron. My only complaint is she would spring emails on u with no notice about extra credit or change in schedule literally 1hr or 2 before. But easy A.
Excellent teacher took the online class and it was easy took alot of notes and watch alot of videos. Test are based out of the book but she is there to help if needed.
i took her online class and probably one of the easiest online classes you can ever take. her powerpoints are so clear that i don't think you really need to buy the book. use her study guide when studying for exams. if you go over it serveral times you will get an A.
She is an amazing teacher. I really enjoyed this class and want to take more psychology classes now. Every class she was friendly and I learned something new every time. The extra credit helped a lot and the tests were pretty easy. You will definitely enjoy her classes :)
Dr. Reeder (Karen not Karin) is pretty much a big deal...She is THE reason that I love both abnormal psychology and psychology of parenting (very helpful class). She looks like Kevin's mom from Home Alone!
AWESOME!!!!She was great, I took her 8 wk.online course over the summerand piece a cake piece a pie!! As long as you do extra credit study guide you will great, she bases test solely on these. I reviewed study guides and quizes and passed class with an A, no final exam either. She is FANTASTIC, for the online course anyway.TAKE HER!!!
Great teacher, really enjoyed her class
I had her for her online course and loved it. Keeping up with the work each week wasn't bad and she is pretty organized and made things clear. Not hard to get a good grade if you put in the couple hours a week, if that.
Another amazing teacher, I don't recommend many teacher's from CGCC but this is definiatly one I will recommend. Long as you put in the effort then you will get a good grade. She's sets up the tests so you don't have to remember to much at once. You also must have good enough math skills to be in the class to begin with. She is a great teacher.
She really cares about her students and she made the subject really interesting. One of my favorite classes and professors.
She covered a lot of info. The stats class was a little hard to understand. The Into class we watched a lot of videos and took a lot of notes.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (Biscuits Media Relations) - After trailing 5-0, the Biscuits put up four runs in the sixth inning before coming back to beat the Tampa Bay Rays 6-5 in the final exhibition game of the Spring for both teams at Riverwalk Stadium Saturday afternoon.
The Biscuits entered the sixth inning trailing by five. Back-to-back doubles by Jake Hager and Joey Rickard made it a 5-1 game before Riccio Torrez drove in a run with a single to make it 5-2. The exclamation mark came one batter after Torrez when Jeff Malm launched a two-run blast to bring the Biscuits within one.
Taylor Motter tied the game at five with an opposite field home run to lead off the seventh. In the eighth inning, with two runners on, Richie Shaffer drove in the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly to the wall in right, driving in Luke Maile.
Michael Colla went four innings for the win. He allowed one run on four hits with two walks and two strike outs.
All of the Rays everyday starters were in the lineup except for catcher. Evan Longoria - played for the Biscuits in 2006 and 2007 - went 1-for-3 with an RBI. Desmond Jennings - with the Biscuits in 2009 - went 1-for-2 with two runs scored. Chris Archer - Biscuits starter in 2011 - started the game. The righty went four scoreless-innings with six strikeouts and no walks for the no-decision.
The Biscuits open their season on Thursday, April 3 against the Birmingham Barons. First pitch is set for 7:05 at Riverwalk Stadium.
The Rays open their season in Tropicana Field on Monday against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Wednesday, exclusively on WSFA 12 News' Today in Alabama, the Montgomery Biscuits made a big announcement that Big Mo will no longer be lonely; he's getting a new friend, a micro pig!
WSFA 12 News Reporter Melissa Johnson interviewed Sherrie Myers, co-owner of the Biscuits, and the state AG commissioner live from Riverwalk Stadium Wednesday morning where they announced the big news.
Along with the new mascot, the Biscuits have also launched a contest for the public to help name the pig. Winners will be announced Saturday, April 5. You can compete to name the pig by submitting your entry for the name:
Officials say they are working with the Department of Agriculture to provide the best care for the new mascot.
"We've got a good plan in place as far as feeding, care, nutrition, housing, after hours care, veterinarian emergency care, if something gets sick or something happens here at the game," said Dr. Brad Fields, the official veterinarian for the Montgomery Biscuits. "There's always going to be people who have concerns, I can assure you the department of agriculture, the Montgomery Biscuits, and all the people involved have looked at all of these and have addressed any concerns that we have."
Biscuits leaders hope the new mascot and the Rays exhibition game will help increase attendance at the ballpark this year. The organization says that after ten years of existence, the crowds have started to dwindle and that could be a problem for the Biscuits down the road.
"Major League Baseball does constantly look at what the attendance is in relation to the level of the team and there are only 30 double A teams in the country," Myers said. "Montgomery is a little bit of a smaller market than would normally have been allowed to have a double A team. So, it's even more reason for us all to just make it a priority to attend two to three times a year."

Robert Fulghum's New Book Supports Habitat
AMERICUS, Ga. – Robert Fulghum, one of America's most popular authors has teamed up with one of this countries best known nonprofits, Habitat for Humanity International. Fulghum's latest book, TRUE LOVE (HarperCollins:February 14, 1997) is a compilation of stories told to and by him which relate to the mystery, confusion, elation and pain associated with the incredible experience of love. Fulghum has gone beyond writing about love, and decided to celebrate the spirit of true love by donating all net royalties from the sale of the book to Habitat for Humanity for its work.
In the introduction Fulghum writes, "To Habitat for Humanity, founded on the principle that the ultimate grace is found in the simple admonition, 'Love one another.'" About choosing Habitat for Humanity as his beneficiary, Fulghum states, "It is one of the two or three charitable organizations I most respect. I especially admire former President Jimmy Carter's role with Habitat."
On writing his latest book, True Love, Fulghum found people were much more willing to tell their most personal stories when they found out the royalties were going to such a charitable organization.
Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry. Habitat works in partnership with people in need throughout the world building simple, decent shelter that is sold to them at no profit, through no-interest loans. Funds, building materials and labor are donated by individuals, churches, corporations and other organizations who share our goal of eliminating substandard housing in the world. Founded in 1976 by Millard and Linda Fuller, Habitat has helped nearly 300,000 people in over 50 countries have a decent place to call home.
True Love is available at a discount from Our House, Habitat's online gift shop. Please see the Our House page for pricing and ordering information.

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!
(The ad below will not display on your printed page)
The website where I booked our family's vacation offers travel insurance. Do we need it?
These plans typically include provisions like cash for lost luggage and life insurance payouts if a plane goes down. Neither is worth the $60 to $200 per traveler cost, points out Birny Birnbaum, executive director of the Center for Economic Justice. The policies also include trip-cancellation coverage to reimburse losses if, say, an injury makes travel impossible. But if you've booked flights and hotels separately, most airlines will credit you for an unused ticket and hotels rarely penalize more than the cost of one night for cancellations. You may want trip-cancellation coverage if you've booked an expensive prepaid package, such as a cruise. Don't buy a one-size-fits-all policy from a travel-booking website or agent. Instead, comparison shop at specialty sites such as seven corners.com, insuremytrip.com or accessamerica.com. An aspect of these policies that you may want is health coverage in a foreign country. Check your regular health policy to see if that covers you. If not, contact the country's tourism board or U.S. embassy to find out whether government-funded health care covers visitors. No?

Art, History & Design
American Revolutionary War reenactor from the Pennsylvania State Navy. Done on toned paper with white and black charcoal.
One of the things I love to do is work in the 18th century as an 18th century artist, or 'limner' as they were called. And being a reenactor I have a ready cast of characters to use as models. This fellow is an American rifleman. The portrait is done in graphite (or plumbago as it was called in the 18th century) and charcoal on laid paper.
Natural Pigments is a wonderful website that sells historic pigments and ready made colors for watercolor, oil, and tempura work. The site also has instructions on how to mull your own colors.
Terrific article from the Library of Congress that explains the how's and why's of historic inks as well as giving complete instructions from period sources so that you can make your own.
Or those who pass themselves off as same.
Smoke and Fire carries Oak gall ink. Made from walnut hulls. Nice brownish black color.
You can also get pens, quills, a chandlers box, and a proper 18th century journal with laid paper from them as well.
Dick Blick is the Mack Daddy of modern art supplies, but you can also find some good stuff in their massive catalog for 18th century demonstrations. Tons and tons of paper choices including some beautiful French handmade papers. But what really caught my eye was Sinopia's Historic Pigment Set. From the catalog:
These sets are a superb introduction into the historical world of genuine earth tones, and ancient and contemporary pigments, such as Hansa Yellow, which are no longer being utilized by most major artist paint manufacturers.

SPOKANE, Wash.—Samantha Cesario's the long program performance put Rachael Flatt ahead of her rivals.
Rachael Flatt has won her first national title and is likely on her way to the Vancouver Olympics. For Sasha Cohen, it's probably back to the shows.
Flatt's jam-packed program at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships overpowered the rest of the field Saturday night. Her score of 200.11 was more than 10 points ahead of Mirai Nagasu — a monstrous margin. Though the Olympic team had yet to be announced, it's likely Flatt and Nagasu will be chosen. Ashley Wagner was third.
For Cohen, it was a disappointing finish to a comeback beset by challenges. Her free skate was sloppy and filled with errors, and her lovely look couldn't overcome that.
Earlier, the ice-dancing competition made it seem hard to believe that only about a decade ago, cracking the top 10 was a monumental achievement for a United States pair.
Now the Americans are sending not one, but two pairs in medal contention to the Olympics.
Meryl Davis and Charlie White won their second straight U.S. title, beating Olympic and world silver medalists Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto for the first time in their careers. Long overshadowed by Belbin and Agosto — at home and internationally — Davis and White left little doubt they are now equal to their friends and former training partners, as well as the other top teams in the world.
"It's important in our home country to come out on top," White said. "What we want to do at the Olympics is win."
Davis and White finished with a U.S.-record 222.29 points, a little less than four points in front of Belbin and Agosto. Emily Samuelson and Evan Bates were third, likely rounding out the squad for the U.S. Olympics.
Davis and White never had beaten Belbin and Agosto, who have long dominated U.S. dance with five straight titles (2004-08) and the silver medal at last year's worlds. They missed last year's nationals because of Agosto's back injury, clearing the way for Davis and White to win their first title.
But Davis and White quietly have been climbing the international ranks — their win at last month's Grand Prix final was the first by an American team — and showed they have the skill, strength and acting chops to medal in Vancouver.
Maybe even win gold.
"I think it's really a testament to our training to come out and beat an amazing team, especially going into the Olympics," White said. "It feels good, but it feels like the hard work isn't done."
Skating to "Music of the Night" from "The Phantom of the Opera," Davis and White were simply magnificent. For all the fun that's been made of ice dance over the years, this was a program that would challenge any athlete, in any sport, and delight theater buffs at the same time. They portrayed characters and emotion so well Andrew Lloyd Webber would be proud.

A.J. Turman, a top running back recruit from Orlando (Fla.) Boone High School, is set to make his college commitment Tuesday. Turman, a three- or four-star recruit depending on the service, has received interest from quite a few schools, including Georgia, Florida State, Tennessee, Auburn and Miami.
Im excited to tell every one what college i will be attending. Tuesday #finallytime— AJ Turman (@AJtman25) November 12, 2012
He spoke with ESPN about his upcoming decision:
"I wanted to get my decision done with three weeks ago and I had a good feeling about where I wanted to go, but I had not taken my final trip to Georgia yet," Turman said. "My parents wanted to wait until after that trip to make my decision. I felt the same after the visit, so I figured since the season was over I should get it out of the way."
Turman was in Athens on Nov. 3, the weekend Georgia took on Ole Miss. The 6-foot, 200-pound running back stayed on campus with his family until Monday morning, and upon his return, sat down with his parents to discuss his options. Turman says they helped him narrow it down by discussing the schools and coaches at each program.
Where will he commit?
In the article, Turman mentions that he is being recruited hard by all of the schools mentioned above. However, it is believed that Florida State might not accept a commitment from him at this time, as it is still in pursuit of Alex Collins, the talented runner out of Ft. Lauderdale (Fla.) South Plantation High School.
Meanwhile, Tennessee and Auburn have real questions about the future of their coaching staffs. How much will that uncertainty weigh on Turman's decision?
And Miami hasn't been recruiting Turman all that hard, according to a source close to the situation, and may have higher targets on its board. It is unknown whether Miami would accept his commitment at this time.
That leaves Georgia. The Bulldogs do not have a commitment from a running back in the class of 2013 after losing Derrick Henry to Alabama. Georgia features a downhill, no-frills running game and would fit Turman's skill set fairly well.
We'll see where he commits Tuesday evening.

An important original goal of Virginia's COSIG grant was the development of a State Steering Committee to provide input into project activities from a wide range of stakeholders. From its inception in March 2005 to July 2006, the Steering Committee was comprised of DBHDS staff from the offices of Mental Health, Substance Abuse Services, Child and Family Services and Facility Operations who provided a higher level of input into project activities beyond the day-to-day Operations Team. It was always the Department's intention to include consumers, advocates and community and state facility providers on the Committee, and in July 2006 we began that process by inviting representatives of consumer advocacy organizations to join the group.
The Steering Committee met on December 7, 2006, facilitated by project consultant Dr. Ken Minkoff. Dr. Minkoff provided suggestions to the newly re-formed Committee on possible activities that would further the goals of the project. CSB staff representing four of the seven regional planning partnerships attended that meeting for the first time. At that meeting, the Steering Committee voted to develop several subcommittees to focus on specific goal areas of the VASIP/COSIG initiative, including staff development and training; developing a welcoming service system; and recommending "architecture" for the state's on-going transformation process. As a result of that vote, three subcommittees were created, including Membership, Welcoming, and Training, which eventually was re-named the VASIP Professional Training and System Development Workgroup. (The Steering Committee later voted to abandon the idea of recommending an architecture for transformation, as it was agreed that this idea was beyond the scope of the Committee's work.)
As of this update in December 2007, the Steering Committee includes CSB representatives from four of the seven planning regions, three of the eight state mental health hospitals, and four consumer advocacy organizations. A roster of the Steering Committee's members includes their contact information.

Law Firms
Partner Pay Cuts are New Signpost in Dismal Law Firm Economic Landscape
Posted Mar 24, 2009 2:49 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
Associates and staff were low-hanging fruit waiting to be cut in law firm layoffs. Start dates for new attorneys have been delayed, salaries have been frozen and benefits formerly taken for granted have been axed. At least one well-known law firm has even reduced the coffee service offered at its Chicago headquarters.
But now BigLaw partnerships seeking to stabilize their finances amidst a global economic free fall are getting down to the nitty-gritty. A growing number of major firms are reducing partner pay, Bloomberg reports.
Cuts in partner compensation have recently been announced at Allen & Overy, Dewey & LeBoeuf and DLA Piper, and could well be quietly under way at other major international firms, too, according to the news agency.
"It's hard to get rid of a partner, so cutting pay is a simple way of sending a message that maybe people ought to think about moving toward the door," says attorney Bruce MacEwen, a New York City-based legal consultant.
Partners at a number of top London-based international law firms have been warned to expect their compensation to drop as much as one-third this year, compared to 2008, the Evening Standard reported in January.

Gov. Jerry Brown has pursued two multibillion-dollar water and high-speed rail projects so aggressively in recent months that it loomed conspicuously how carefully he stepped to avoid the projects in his biggest speech of the year.
Brown mentioned the $68 billion rail program only once in his State of the State address this week, saying were building the nations only high-speed rail. He gave equally little air to his plan to build two tunnels to divert water around the Delta.
The absence of a forceful defense of either project was a departure from previous speeches, suggesting Browns wariness of controversy in an election year. Public opinion has turned against high-speed rail since voters approved it in 2008, and Brown acknowledged days before his address that an ongoing drought has accentuated regional tensions over water.
But Browns skirting of the tunnels and rail projects, two priorities of his administration, also highlights the shifting field on which the Democratic governor is seeking to push his public works agenda. After securing the Legislatures authorization for initial construction of the rail project in the Central Valley in 2012, Browns problems have mainly shifted to Congress and the courts.
His water plan is to be financed by water users and permitted administratively by state and federal officials. Needing no public vote on the projects and with his re-election campaign on the horizon Brown could see little reason to engage.
If he had his way, he wouldnt have given the speech at all, said Tony Quinn, a political analyst and former Republican legislative aide. He wants this to be a nothing election. Hes running up against two people who nobodys ever heard of. There is no sign of any political fever in California at all.
Browns speech to a joint session of the Legislature, lasting 17 minutes, was shorter than his offering last year. Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson, D-Santa Barbara, said Certainly the governor didnt languish on the podium, and lawmakers took note of all he left out.
Brown, who is preparing for a likely re-election bid this year, focused his speech on fiscal restraint, and Sen. Andy Vidak, R-Hanford, said Thats hard to talk about when you have a train that may be costing 10 times what the voters approved.
The Legislature has proved a similarly difficult audience for Brown on water policy. Last year, a handful of lawmakers, including some Democrats, issued terse statements critical of the water project after Brown heralded the plan in plain terms.
My proposed plan is two tunnels 30 miles long and 40 feet wide, designed to improve the ecology of the Delta, with almost 100 square miles of habitat restoration, Brown said at the time. Yes, thats big. But so is the problem.
A year later, Brown referred to the project only by its technical name, calling for further progress on the Bay Delta Conservation Plan.
Nor did Brown state a position on an $11.1 billion water bond scheduled for the November ballot.
The bond, which the Legislature has twice deferred, is likely to be rewritten to reduce its cost, if not put off again. Brown has been noncommittal, voicing only general support for expanded storage and serious groundwater management, among other water infrastructure improvements.
Negotiations over the bond are potentially perilous for Brown. While a governor preaching moderation might view a multibillion-dollar debt measure as unwelcome company on his re-election ballot, the drought has heightened calls for dams and other infrastructure.
Larry Gerston, a political science professor at San Jose State University, said that three months ago, before Browns declaration of a drought emergency, I would say, yeah, he wants to hold off.
Now, Gerston said, The environment may dictate otherwise. This state has a critical problem. I think the sense is that we cant sit back and let nature take its course.
Brown said Thursday that I certainly am going to deal with the water and the tunnels and the high-speed rail, but he acknowledged the purpose of downplaying them in his speech.
I didnt want to detract from the simple message that weve had a decade of deficits, and going forward the most important thing to do is to live within our means, he told reporters in Salinas. You can only say too many things. And when you write your stories I didnt want you to say, Today Brown said 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. No, I only wanted you to say one thing: Brown said live within your means.
Brown will soon be forced to re-engage on water and rail.
He has said the state may consider mandatory water restrictions if the drought persists, while legal challenges continue to beleaguer high-speed rail. A Sacramento Superior Court judge ordered the California High-Speed Rail Authority in November to rescind its original funding plan, ruling officials failed to comply with provisions of Proposition 1A, the initiative in which voters approved initial funding for the project.
Brown is seeking lawmakers approval to use $250 million in fees paid by carbon producers to help finance the rail project, and Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg said, There are some real important questions that need to be asked and will be asked this legislative session about the projects funding.
In his State of the State address last year, Brown acknowledged adversity facing the rail initiative and likened it to The Little Engine That Could.
I think I can, I think I can, I think I can, he said. And over the mountain the little engine went. Were going to get over that mountain.
Following his speech this week, Assembly Republican leader Connie Conway of Tulare said, There was no mention of the little engine from last year.

Some Queen City taxpayers are wondering why city leaders held a closed door meeting Monday night, and voted to study a plan that would renovate Bank of America Stadium with taxpayer money.
City council members voted 7-2 in a closed session late Monday night to study a plan that fund the Carolina Panthers' request for $125 million in upgrades to the stadium.
Sources tell WBTV that plan is not final as city council is expected to hold a final public vote after more information is gathered. City council members would not speak publicly about the backroom negotiations.
"We have economic development situations that we discuss all the time and at some point once our discussions reach a conclusion, the contents of those conversations will become public," said Charlotte Mayor Anthony Foxx.
The plan, if passed, would require approval from the N.C. General Assembly and Gov. Pat McCrory.
Sources tell WBTV Councilmen Warren Cooksey, a Republican, and Michael Barnes, a Democrat, voted against the plan.
Everyone else voted in favor except for Mayor Anthony Foxx, who did not vote, according to the source.
The city wants to raise to food and beverage tax from one to two percent to help pay for the upgrades for the 16 year old stadium.
Rumors have been swirling around the NFL in recent months that the Panthers may be one of several teams under consideration to be relocated to Los Angeles, which is building a new stadium in hopes of luring a pro team.
Team owner Jerry Richardson, now in his 70s, has not publicly named a plan of succession for who will run the team once he has stepped down. However, a Charlotte Business Journal article posted Tuesday night says the team will be sold after Richardson's death.
"A source who's very close to the team told me this week that the plan is, Jerry Richardson wants the team sold within two years of his death," said CBJ writer Erik Spanberg.
That could be added motivation for city council members to strike a deal with Richardson.
"The idea would be that if the city invested, they would also gain a commitment from the Panthers in the form of a lease or some other agreement that would have steep financial penalties to make sure that the team stays here. Right now the team owns their stadium, so they could leave whenever they want," said Spanberg.
When asked why Monday's meeting was not open to the public, Charlotte City Attorney Bob Hagemann sent us this portion of the city's open records law:
"To discuss matters relating to the location or expansion of industries or other businesses in the area served by the public body, including agreement on a tentative list of economic development incentives that may be offered by the public body in negotiations"

Today I am writing to find out what some of you think the hornets should do this off season. You are the hornets GM and you have the salary that they hornets have which is roughly 42.1 mil locked up in 5 players.
They are
CP3 at 16.4 mil
Emeka 12.5 mil
Ariza 6.8 mil
JJack 5.2 mil
QPon 1.2 mil
You also are basing this on the idea that the new CBA is similar to the old one so the cap is about 58.5 mil and the tax line is around 70.5 mil.
How would you make this team better? Who should they go after? What kind of contracts would you be looking to give? Are there any trades that you might try to make. Who will you try to resign and who will you give a qualifying offer to?
A list of the free agents is here and here is the salary for the Hornets.
I will put my moves in the comments as well.
Good luck!

Update: Here's what happened. Variety tried to be bloggers and failed and dug up a Total Film interview from January 2010 that they mistook for 2011. We were dumb enough to follow suit -- though so did half the Internet. Nothing to see here, please move on.
It all looked so promising. Last fall, reports surfaced that MGM was aiming to have James Bond back in theaters by November 2012, with Kate Winslet mentioning offhand that Sam Mendes was still going to direct and composer David Arnold saying the film was "back on" after being stalled thanks to MGM's money woes. Well 007 fans, it appears that James Bond is still unable to defeat his new and biggest enemy: bankruptcy. Producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli told Total Film (via MI6), "Well, our timeline's a little up in the air what with the situation at MGM, so we have to be flexible. We just don't know enough about the situation to comment, but we know it's uncertain."
Gabriel | January 5, 2011 6:53 AM
Yeah, that article is from Jan. 4, 2010, not 2011.
David Lee | January 5, 2011 6:32 AM
Erm, this article is totally out of date.
There is no new information about the film being put on hold again, anywhere.
Peter Morgan departed the production months ago, and yet this article states he's still involved.
Total hokum!

On a sidewalk. In a park. If you're on public property in Cairo, you better make sure your pants are pulled up.
"Nobody wants to see anybody's undergarments or any skin that is exposed that doesn't need to be exposed. Nobody wants to see that and we are doing it for the public. It is not anything for us," said Cpl. Chris Miller.
Late last year, the Cairo City Council voted to ban "saggy" pants within the city limits.
"People don't like to see other people's undergarments or skin exposed. Our ordinance states that you are not supposed to wear your pants, shorts, or skirts at three inches below your hip," said Miller.
With the ordinance now in full effect, police say violators are issued a warning for the first offense, and a fine for every subsequent offense.
"I'm glad they are coming up with the idea of a fine because anyone who wears their clothes half way off their behind should be fined. It is totally disrespectful," said Cairo Resident Michelle Bogan.
Bogan says she supports the ordinance "Why would you want to wear your clothes hanging off your behind in the public? That's what belts are made for."
And police say violations of the ordinance could become safety issues.
"You know if somebody is driving down the road and they are engrossed by somebody walking down the road with their pants hanging down, you know they may look over there and it may initially cause a wreck or something like that. I can see that happening," said Miller.
We did speak with one man off camera who says he disagrees with the ordinance.
He says it violates his freedom of speech and freedom of expression.
Violators are issued a warning for the first offense, no less than a $25 fine on the second offense, and no more than $200 for each subsequent offense.

A word from Armani's
Known for its authentic Northern Italian cuisine, the new Armani's restaurant features a fresh, sophisticated design and an atmosphere ideal for a romantic dinner for two, a get-together with friends or an upscale business function. With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Tampa Bay, guests can
take in spectacular panoramic views during dinner and enjoy a drink on the outdoor patio before or after their meal.
Armani's signature antipasto bar allows guests to create their own first course from a selection of more than 30 items and a dedicated station offers fresh made-to-order Caesar salads. Armani's "primi piatti" menu includes vegetarian, pasta and soup selections, while main courses range from veal scaloppini in a truffle sauce over mascarpone polenta to wild salmon on pan fried risotto bianco.

Loved it. Would go back. Food was
amazing, service was perfect, the view was priceless."
Dined on 8/22/2014
We choose Armani's as a venue to
celebrate special occasions not only for the outstanding food and service, but for the ambience, and piano music. Wonderful view of bay and sunsets, great selection of wines including old world and California."

On August 16th, I got engaged at
Armani's Restaurant. The entire staff including Kathleen Morgan were extremely helpful in pulling off an incredible night to remember. I highly recommend Armani's for that special occasion - Birthday, Anniversary, Engagement, etc."
Dined on 8/16/2014
Enjoyed my meal. Kept seeing
other tables given candles, with rose pedals, and wondered why them and not us. Service was all over us to start, and then largely gone. Enjoyed the special occasion dress and ambiance, until a different crowd in shorts tromped through. Tight nature of seating can make tables seem to be on an aisle or path, if you are not directly pointed at window."
Dined on 8/16/2014
In researching fine dining areas
with a romantic atmosphere in Tampa, Armani's was top rated and it's for a reason. The restaurant is on the top floor of the Grand Hyatt hotel right on Tampa Bay. It occupies the entire corner of the building that faces the bay so there are a lot of tables with great views. In making the reservation I requested a window table and also mentioned that it was our anniversary. They sat us at a great table and the service was amazing. Someone was there any time we thought we might need or want something without ever asking or needing to flag someone down. The food was amazing also. We started out with their signature Antipasto and had the chef put together his favorite selection for us. It was all so good."

My husband and I had a very
enjoyable evening mostly do to the incredible service!"
Dined on 8/9/2014
We ordered wine and it never came
we waited for over half an hour for it when my husband went to check another wsiter who hardly spoke english told us that she disappeared. He said yes yes dont worry about it when we said we were leaving as if he was doing US a favor. How reficulous for such a nice high quality restaruant"
Dined on 8/8/2014
The antipasto bar was very
good. The view was also very nice. Food was good."
Dined on 8/7/2014
This is an exquisite restaurant!
It never fails to delight with its lovely views of Tampa Bay, its friendly yet non-intrusive waitstaff and its consistently excellent menu. Prices are certainly comparable to, and often more reasonable than other fine dining restaurants. The ambience is one of quiet elegance. After all these years, it does not seem dated. Somehow it has managed to remain current and in step with changing tastes without becoming trendy. I have been reminded that this restaurant should not be reserved only for special occasions and will return more often."
Dined on 8/5/2014
The food and view cannot be
surpassed in a Tampa Bay area. Be sure and plan your reservation you are there for the sunset. the antipasto bar it is fabulous and one of the best values on the menu."
Dined on 7/31/2014
My husband I arrived ahead of our
reservation, but were seated immediately. The antipasto plate prepared by the chef included a wonderful assortment of food to sample, enjoyed with our Pinot wine. Our meals were prepared perfectly and we enjoyed the flourless chocolate torte for dessert with espresso while taking in the amazing view of the bay at night. Thanks for another amazing date night out with my husband."
Dined on 7/28/2014
Armani's has a quaint bar scene
with beautiful water and bridge view. We like to order a drink in the bar and chat over the piano music before dining in the restaurant. The antipasto bar is wonderful and is perfect as an appetizer. I would suggest one plate per couple so as not to ruin your appetite for your entree later. The filet mignon was delicious and it was served with a yellow tomato slice and red tomato slice. It was divine. The outdoor balcony has a fire table and sexy view of the water and lights at night."
Dined on 7/26/2014
As usual the service was perfect
and the food was great"
Dined on 7/21/2014
The food experience overall was
acceptable, however not outstanding. We expected more for the price. Separating the bar tab and dining tab was kind of cumbersome and should be combined. Service overall was slow. I expected more since when I made reservation I informed them it was birthday, anniversary and other celebration all combined. This was not acknowledged upon arrival until I mentioned to the server. Will I go back again most likely no as I did not much care for the menu. Great view and great for special occasions."
Dined on 7/19/2014
I was fortunate enough to be able
to go to Armani's the night before my birthday. The view was fantastic at sunset, the food could not have been better and our servers were spot on. It was all I could do to finish the Antipasto Bar and my entrée. The wine list was impressive with many new (to me) labels. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that would listen."
Dined on 7/19/2014
An incredible experience with
outstanding food. I would definitely recommend to friends and family. We will be returning for a romantic dinner with a beautiful view of the sunset."
Dined on 7/18/2014
Ambience, food, service,scenic
view including sunset and a lightning storm over Tampa Bay!!! What more could you ask for!! This restaurant has it all! My girlfriend and I celebrated our 6th Anniversary here and I am so glad we found this restaurant. As a current 16 year GM over a high end restaurant it is sometimes hard to go out and enjoy my self as I am constantly observing what is going on in the restaurant. The staff is very professional and the hospitality was something I do not see much of from the Tampa area! The staff was very accommodating and very knowledgeable! The staff went above and beyond and the food melted in your mouth. They even gave us a little dessert surprise to celebrate. Thank you for such a special Anniversary!"
Dined on 7/15/2014
We have a tradition for my
husband's birthday at Armani's and have always requested the same table# 30 with reservation. When we arrived, we were told that table or no table by the window would not be available for at least an hour or more. We took a small table in the lounge area and told the receptionist to move us to a window table in the dining room when it becomes available. We ended up eating our whole meal at the small table in the lounge area. Although there is no guarantee that we would get what we requested but there was no effort whatsoever to accommodate us . We have always had great experiences at Armani's for many years and always recommend to our friends and guests but we will change venue from now on."
Dined on 7/12/2014
Spent $600 after a few bottles of
good wine and a healthy tip. Totally worth it though. Best view in Tampa (probably all of central Florida) great food, outstanding service. Never felt like we were waiting on food or like we were being rushed. I had the veal scallopine, it was impeccable. Can't wait to go back an try the Osso Bucco."
Dined on 7/11/2014
Over the last few years many high
end restaurants have popped up in Tampa. I have been to them all. It has been years since I have been to Armani's. I went there last night and was reminded and once again... amazed at how spectacular Armani's is. The ambience, views and cuisine is beyond compare to any other restaurant in Tampa. This is the ideal place to go to for a special occasion or to make an impression. I will definitely be frequenting Armani's more often in the future."
Dined on 7/10/2014
Excellent bolognese on
tagliatelle. Tomato caprese sald with homemade mozzarella was divine!"
Dined on 7/10/2014
Wonderful experience. Great food,
great service, what a view! Top notch and would definitely return!"
Dined on 7/9/2014
Armani's has sure gone downhill.
Seated AWAY from the bay & sunset- even though there were several tables available. Waiter ARGUED with us when we made a negative comments on the view from our table of the freeway. Antipesto was good. Pasta dishes were over cooked and too saturated with sauce. Key lime gelato too sweet and not tart. Meal was OK-can get the same from Olive Garden! Went for the ambiance, great food & service. Disappointed on all counts. Last impression before leaving- someone had thrown up all over the ladies loo- ."
Dined on 7/5/2014
We went on the 4th of July for the
first time, the views were amazing and it was a great way to watch the fireworks. The food was delicious, although portions small for the price. Our server was very nice and knowedgable, when he visitied the table. The service took forever and was way more spaced out than it needed to be. Our final coffee service took a solid 20 minutes from when we ordered it, our dessert even came out first and we had already completed it. This was our only plans for the evening, but if we had elsewhere to go it would have been irrating. Biggest complaint would be the AC levels, FREEZING! Even my husband in pants and sleeves was uncomfortable."
Dined on 7/4/2014
Went to Armani's to celebrate our
4 year wedding anniversary on July 4th. I requested a table on the window so we could watch fireworks and we got a great table. The food was good but not great. The special bone in veal chop was tough. The veggies that it came with were a bit soggy. The dessert was ordinary. The service was very good and the views of the water and the fireworks off in the distance made the night very special. Yes, we would go back even if we weren't wow'd by the food. The bill was under $200 which I thought was reasonable as we had a glass of champagne and a glass of nice wine as well."
Dined on 7/4/2014
Great anniversary dinner. Waiters
were attentive without hovering. Did not feel rushed at all. Food was superb."
Dined on 7/3/2014
Armani's is one of the only
Five-Star restaurants in the Tampa Bay area and that rating is well earned ... Beyond excellent food, unique flavors and combinations, attentive and professional wait staff, gorgeous view. It's got all of the makings for a top-notch romantic evening."
Dined on 7/2/2014
This is the second time my family
has dined at Armani's and we continue to be disappointed with management's ability to deliver a sepcial seat requests. In both instances, I made reservations weeks in advance and specifically asked for a west facing table adjacent to the windows. This is very important because 50% of the appeal in eating at Armani's is the view! I don't want to pay $40/meal to overlook the airport. Both times Armani's failed to fulfill my request. I understand that several people probably ask for a window seat, but this past time we dined at Armani's, 75% of the restaurant was empty and yet they still couldn't hold a window table for us facing west? And even worse, the hostess wasn't even remotely apologetic about it."
Dined on 6/28/2014
On a hot summer evening on our way
to see the fireworks at Channelside we made a date for early dinner at Armani's. 14 stories high at Grand Hyatt we had a great view of the Courtney Campbell and kids running through wooded boardwalks out to the waterfront way down below. There was sunlight streaming through shaded windows as we chose a twosome table and a great meal - enjoying superb shrimp with scallops carbonara and citrus glazed salmon- both generously portioned and tastefully cooked. The atmosphere was festive with the upcoming 4th of July weekend -as the gracious pianist played mellow nostalgic tunes to garnish the occasion. Much appreciated the friendly service-and will certainly recommend."
Dined on 6/28/2014
My husband and I went for our
anniversary and enjoined a beatiful view from our table. Once dinner was done we took our drinks on the deck and watched the sun set. It was amazing!!!"
Dined on 6/28/2014
My wife and I enjoyed our
anniversary dinner there... The the food, views and service were great... Would definitely go back!"
Dined on 6/28/2014
My husband and I celebrated our
27th wedding anniversary here. We have been to several five star restaurants, but this one is exceptional. The view of Tampa Bay was fantastic. Our servers made us feel like the most important guests there. And of course the food was great! Try the Chef's Choice Antipasto Salad. We will definitely be going back soon."
Dined on 6/27/2014
The experience at Armani's was so
unique & incredible, starting with the antipasto bar!! What a unique concept and a great way to try out a number of different items! The service was impeccable, and our server made us feel special throughout, including a special dessert for our anniversary. Definitely save time to spend outside on the deck. It was so romantic and had an amazing view. When we go back, we'll definitely spend more time outside. Simply put, Armani's deserves its accolades as one of the top romantic restaurants!"
Dined on 6/20/2014
Food and service are superior,
wine list is great! Ambience and view are amazing. Get a reservation before sunset against the west windows for an incredible view!"
Dined on 6/19/2014
Been going here for years.
Excellent food. Everything is always cooked to perfection. Love the appetizers and the veal cannot be beat anywhere. Service was great. Thanks for another excellent evening. Hard to beat looking out over Tampa Bay. Piano music is great idea."
Dined on 6/19/2014
Although the service was a little
slow, we enjoyed ourselves immensely. The food was really good but not outstanding. It is the perfect place for a special date or to celebrate a special occasion. The ambiance is what makes Armani's so very special."
Dined on 6/19/2014
We celebrated both Father's Day
and a birthday at Armani's. We first selected from the antipasto bar but I don't think we would spend $19.00 per person to order it again (a salad would be preferred). My veal scaloppini, large portion was, again, good, not great (the risotto served with it was very good). My husband's dish was the stonebass, again prepared well, but, again, not great. However, our dessert, the hazelnut cheesecake was fabulous (everyone should try it). Albert, our waiter created a Happy Birthday plate complete with candle in serving it. The two outstanding features were Albert, our waiter (ask for him) and the ambiance (quiet elegance)."
Dined on 6/14/2014
Chose Armani's for our 20th
Wedding Anniversary Dinner based on researching online romantic restaurants in Tampa. The view was lovely but the food and service were about the same as going to a chain restaurant. The hostess did acknowledge our special occasion when we checked in and they did present us with a nice dessert. I may have set my expectations a bit too high. I was really hoping for an extrordinary meal/experience but in actuality it was rather average. My thoughts is that this venue is great for a sunset drink but the upscale prices aren't necessarily warranted."
Dined on 6/4/2014
Expected much more from such a
beautiful, established restaurant. Service was good, but the food was terrible. Too much dressing on salads, too much salt in lobster bisque, way too much sauce on pasta (could barely find the noodles). "

My doctor gave me this inhaler after diagnosing me with asthma. I had a scary experience. The inhaler actually made my asthma symptoms much worse!! I started coughing terribly and had trouble breathing for several hours. My doctor said this "occasionally happens," but it's a side effect everyone should be well aware of.

Ease of Use
I believe that this ProAir is actually causing bronchitis like conditions. I was put on Dulera and stopped using the proair. Ran out of Dulera so I had to rely on Proair only. I get this thick green/gray mucus in the morning. All this completely went away when NOT using proair. Along with the mucus I get a bad cough also. I'm not happy.

ProAir HFA is very expensive, tastes bad, and requires more puffs to bring the asthma attack under control. Unfortunately, I can't find any alternatives thanks to the CFC ban.
