KCAL and beer go together like….well, KCAL and beer! You've been hearing a bit about it, and we couldn't be more excited to tell you more about a project we've been working on…we hooked up with the awesome brew masters over at Inland Empire Brewing Company in Riverside to come up with a series of seasonal KCAL inspired beers. The KCAL Rocks The IE Brew Series! The first one is a refreshing light lager perfect for the hot I.E. summer that we're calling The Riverside Rocker.

Check out this shot of KCAL at the US Festival! Thanks to KCAL rocker Sean Syfers for finding this picture and sharing it with us for Throwback Thursday. You Rock, Sean! Now, do you wanna really trip out? We recently got a message from a listener asking if we wanted an old banner of ours back. He said his uncle and some friends had had stolen it from the US Festival on a dare, and it has been moving around garages of the IE for 30 something years ever since. Sadly, the uncle is in failing health and wanted to clear his conscience before he passed away, so he told his nephew to return the banner. The nephew (who wanted to remain anonymous, but is a really good guy) dropped it off:
And here it is with 4orty and Daryl holding it. The old Rock Spectrum lives in the new studio!!!

I don't know if you've heard, but Six Flags announced yesterday that after 36 years they're closing the legendary Collossus Roller Coaster at Magic Mountain in Valencia as of August. Yeah, there are newer and crazier roller coasters, but damn, I know a lot of us are gonna miss the old wooden monster! I was there in the summer of 1978 when it opened, and can't count how many times I bounced around in those uncomfortable cars. Might need to hit the park one more time before it goes away. Here's some front seat video to remind you of what its like…

The Foo Fighters have been setting up shop in the desert to record their new album, and little bits of info keep trickling out via social media. First it was a shot of some master tapes referring to their 8th album.
Next there was a shot of Dave messing around with a bb gun, and those that have been there saw that they were working at the Rancho de la Luna Studios in Joshua Tree:
And earlier today, Joe Walsh posted on Twitter a shot of him with Taylor Hawkins and Dave Grohl saying, "Look who I ran into in Joshua Tree!":
He later told the Hollywood Reporter, "I was a Foo Fighter for two days and played on a track of theirs that's gonna come out.".
Oh, and now we see that there is going to be an HBO show documenting the making of the new album!
Can't wait to hear it!

"This is the 'real thing'... You won't find these in a department store. Very heavy-duty built. I bought mine for a 2013 Ford Expedition along with a Westin chrome front grille guard. Between them, the truck looks great. The quality on this was so good that I didn't want to install it without some 'locking screws' to prevent theft. Very heavy chrome, very good enamel application, and heavy gauge all the way. Be sure to get some locking screws with caps to install it to deter thieves."

Are the shareholders getting restless? It certainly seems that way.

More quote details and news » (ticker: C) CEO Vikram Pandit's $15 million pay package and ousted New York Stock Exchange Euronext (NYX) director Ricardo Salgado, among several other, smaller, but no less successful rebellions.
But this has very little to do with sign-waving protesters. Much of the restiveness can be traced to Institutional Shareholder Services, a Rockville, Md.-based proxy-advisory firm—a business that advises mutual-fund firms on how to vote.
Mutual funds' voting power—and ISS's influence—can't be understated. Fund firms have been called the largest single bloc in U.S. corporate governance; they own more than 25% of outstanding shares of U.S. publicly traded companies, according to research by Jill Fisch, a University of Pennsylvania securities-law professor. Legally, directors are bound to vote the shares in the best interest of the fund's shareholders. Practically, an independent review of every proxy for every company in a portfolio with dozens or even hundreds of names is almost impossible. That's where ISS comes in.
Each year, ISS issues a recommendation on proxy materials, producing reports on some 5,000 U.S. companies. No corporate ballot initiative, whether it's a director's re-election or a CEO's compensation package, goes unexamined. And the firm's recommendations carry weight. An ISS recommendation of a "No" vote on a compensation plan, for example, meant a 25% drop in shareholder support in 2011, and a 28% drop so far this year, according to executive compensation consultancy Semler Brossy. That's substantial enough to have prompted 52 companies this year to file supplemental proxy materials to respond directly to ISS's opposition.
While ISS claims to advise more than 1,700 clients, mutual-fund companies in particular seem to vote with the firm's recommendation, according to research by James Cotter and Alan Palmiter of Wake Forest and Randall Thomas of Vanderbilt. When ISS and management were at odds, mutual funds voted more consistently with ISS than with management; for shareholders in general, the opposite was true.
Even so, all this influence rarely added up to much, until recently. Even with an ISS recommendation, it was unusual for shareholders to oust a director or to defeat a management proposal. Then came Dodd-Frank and the rise of "say on pay" votes. Prior to the law, if shareholders didn't like the CEO's compensation package, their only recourse was to vote against the board members who sat on the compensation committee. But while it is hard to vote against any one board member, it is much easier, it turns out, to cast a non-binding vote against a CEO's specific pay package.
WHY ARE MUTUAL FUNDS so much more likely than other institutional investors to vote with ISS's recommendations? On the one hand, mutual-fund firms pay ISS for its research, and why pay for something you wouldn't use? Also, mutual funds are required by law to disclose their votes, and a fund's directors have a fiduciary responsibility to vote in the best interests of shareholders. So hiring ISS offers a measure of cover, observe Cotter, Palmiter and Thomas. "Only voting outliers can be subject to criticism," they write.
No firm amasses this kind of power without attracting criticism. The longstanding complaint is that ISS had no real competition to provide an alternate view. That's fair: There are other proxy-advisory firms, but ISS is considered the most influential by far. Not that there are stats to prove it; ISS is the only one with enough history and reach to be studied.
The newer critique has to do with the firm's say-on-pay recommendations. ISS makes a recommendation based in part on a CEO's pay package relative to CEO compensation at similar companies, and several targeted firms have complained that the peers defined by ISS aren't really peers at all. For the second year in a row, ISS recommended against the pay package for Janus Capital CEO Richard Weil, noting that he was paid almost 1.5 times the median for his peers. But that peer group contained companies like Moody's, Piper Jaffray, and Lazard, Janus (JNS) pointed out in supplemental proxy materials. Compared with a more similar group, Weil's salary was 30% below the median.
Shareholders found that argument persuasive. At the annual meeting last month, 61% approved Weil's salary package.
It isn't a perfect system, says UPenn's Fisch. ISS may not be using the right measurements all the time, but it does provide some comparability and consistency, and "it's not clear that what investors could come up with on their own could do better," she says. "If you're a mutual-fund shareholder, you're glad your fund manager or directors aren't spending a lot of time or money to go through this process."
As for ISS's critics, they were at least treated to a little schadenfreude this season, when parent company MSCI msci +0.95% MSCI Inc.

"I'm discovering how valuable these magic words are..."
"During this Thanksgiving week, I simply want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm discovering how valuable these magic words are for any relationship (above and beyond the primary relationship)- and I'm handling a highly sensitive family trauma – which needs all the love, patience and wisdom in the world to work-through – and I'm adapting the magic words according to need to help support this delicate, difficult navigation.
I love how the workbook creates a sense of emotional space and reflection literally by including space for exercises – in itself helping to decompress 'tightness' and 'fear' and open-up heartfelt, authentic connection even where extremely deep differences, perceptions and experiences may exist. Susie and Otto, thanks for creating and sharing this – part of your invaluable gift of service to the path of truly authentic human relating." R

Interested in building iOS or Mac apps? The Swift programming language lets you do that faster than ever before. In this brief tutorial, you'll see how you can quickly create an app using Swift.
By Scott Fegette | Friday, June 13, 2014
Swift is a new programming language developed by Apple for iOS and OS X app development, which builds on the best parts of many popular languages like Objective-C, Ruby, Python, C# and more. Announced at Apple's annual WWDC developer conference this year, Swift is the culmination of years of "skunkworks" development alongside optimizations made to Apple's SDKs and developer tools.

Apple's yearly Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) has long been a place where Apple makes major announcements of both hardware and software.
But the keynote at this year's event, which began this morning in San Francisco, included no new hardware announcements: no new iPhone, no iPad, and no sign of any long-rumored iWatch or Apple TV.

One of my favorite Siri features is the ability to have a reminder pop up when you arrive at or leave a specific location. You can simply tell Siri, "Remind me when I get to my mom's house to ask her about the party invitation." The next time you drive up to your parents' house, a reminder will pop up on your screen as soon as you pull into the driveway.
Using this as a starting point, you can easily extend its use to local businesses that you frequent. You can have a reminder with your grocery list pop up when you arrive at your favorite market. You can be reminded to grab that gift certificate from the glove box when pulling up to a restaurant, or sync up your Evernote account before stepping into a client's office. The possibilities are endless.

Facebook has just released an update to its standalone messaging app, and the changes are significant. The app has been completely redesigned for both iOS and Android platforms and boasts many aesthetic and functionality changes as well.
Aside from the new look, the biggest change is the ability to message people who aren't among your Facebook friends. This is contingent on whether you allow the app to access your phone number and/or contacts list; if you allow it, others will be able to message you directly, regardless of whether they are on your list of friends, and you'll be able to do the same.

Creating an app for Android, iOS, or Windows means learning two things: a programming language and the SDK. Even if you use one of the cross-platform frameworks, you'll still need to learn some peculiarities of each system. It requires a significant investment in time and talents—and you'll have to repeat it to create the same app for a different phone.
lynda.com can help with this learning curve. We've created a playlist of three new parallel courses: Building a Note-Taking App for Android, Building a Note-Taking App for iOS, and Building a Note-Taking App for Windows Phone 8 and Windows Store. Together they provide a roadmap for building a cross-platform mobile app.
We've built the same app for all three mobile platforms (actually four; Windows Store and Windows Phone are separate), using the same assets and creating the same functionality for each. We enlisted three top-notch authors to show you how they would implement the application on each platform.

Alessandra Rich Looks West for Her Net-a-Porter Capsule-------
In case you had any doubts, fashion is still heading West. After debuting at Chanel's Métiers d'Art show in Dallas and picking up speed at the Cannes Film Festival, Western-inspired fringe, suede, and desert boots are still at the top of our wish list. It's a trend that can quickly look costume-y—or worse, watered down—which is why Alessandra Rich's new capsule collection for Net-a-Porter feels like a breath of fresh air.
Instead of trying her hand at ten-gallon hats and clunky cowboy boots, Rich infused her trademark aesthetic with subtle, seventies-inflected Western nods. Her signature curve-hugging dresses, fluttery ruffles, and miles of French lace were teamed with snap-front shirts, silk head scarves, studded leather belts, and pale blue chambray accents. While other designers are aiming for a rugged, androgynous vibe, Rich is focused on the femme fatale in floor-sweeping skirts and Victorian blouses. That's a role we wouldn't mind playing.
A first look at the collection premieres exclusively here on Style.com.
The Alessandra Rich capsule collection will be available exclusively at www.net-a-porter.com in July.
Marina's Must-Haves: Alessandra Rich's Lace Gowns-------
As I said yesterday, the spring gala season is upon us. When the time comes to dress up, Alessandra Rich's lace gowns are all I want to wear. The white version would be perfect for spring and summer events, or I could choose the black style to don to warm-weather weddings, so as not to be mistaken for the bride. Rich's approach to eveningwear is refreshing. These dresses are sexy and quirky at the same time. Which one to get? Black or white?
Alessandra Rich gown in white, $3,377, or black, $3,229, Buy it now

FHS Visit by Grim Reaper
Friday was "White Out Day" sponsored by SADD (Students Againt Destructive Decisions). Statistics say that every 53 minutes someone is killed by a drunk driver. Today there was a tone that rang every 53 minutes to signify that death. 28 students/staff were "Killed" or whited out to represent the total number of people killed each day in alcohol related car crashes. The "grim reaper" took students from class, they wore white and had their face whited out - for the rest of the day as they attended classes, they were silent. This activity was also incorporated into our Prom Pep Assembly to stress the importance of not drinking and driving. Great job SADD!

"My greatest concern is that they could be doing anything," said Peter Edge, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement official who oversees investigations into visa violators. "Some of them could be here to do us harm."This is a protect the border issue and according to Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) since the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks, 26 student visa holders have been arrested in the U.S. on terror-related charges.
Homeland Security officials disclosed the breadth of the student visa problem in response to ABC News questions submitted as part of an investigation into persistent complaints about the nation's entry program for students.
ABC News found that immigration officials have struggled to keep track of the rapidly increasing numbers of foreign students coming to the U.S. -- now in excess of one million each year. The immigration agency's own figures show that 58,000 students overstayed their visas in the past year. Of those, 6,000 were referred to agents for follow-up because they were determined to be of heightened concern.
Edge said ICE agents are trying to locate every one of the 6,000 missing students, but acknowledged that "we really have a lot more work to do" to tighten up the student visa program.Maybe that is why Obama plays so much golf, he is checking out all of those people overstaying their golf visas.
Despite repeated concerns raised by Congress, federal immigration officials have also continued to grant schools certification to accept overseas applicants even if the schools lack accreditation, state certification, or any obvious measure of academic rigor.
There are now more than 9,000 schools on the government approved list. The list includes such top flight American colleges as Harvard and Yale, but it also includes 86 beauty schools, 36 massage schools and nine schools that teach horseshoeing. Foreign students can enter the U.S. on a visa to study acupuncture, hair braiding, or join academies that focus on tennis and golf.
Once the student arrives in the U.S., it is up to the schools to keep track of the visa-holder's whereabouts -- and report to the government if they repeatedly miss class.The fact this visa issue has not been fixed is astounding. Bush didn't fix it and now Obama hasn't fixed it. As the report reminds us the man who drove the van containing explosives into the World Trade Center garage in 1993 was also a student visa holder who was a no-show at school. The terrorist who flew a plane into the Pentagon also was a visa no-show.
That is a serious concern, Coburn said, because a number of for-profit schools appear to have been operating with a primary goal of selling visas, not educating students.
"We know we have a lot of non-accredited universities that are using this system to bring people in, collect money, and not educate them at all," said Coburn, who is part of a bi-partisan group of senators that has been trying to tighten controls on student visas. "To me, it's a mess."
Rachel Banks, the director of public policy for NAFSA, the association of international educators, said her group has been working to promote opportunities for foreign study in the U.S. She said the group understands the need to monitor the arrival and departure of foreign nationals, but it should not come at the expense of legitimate applicants seeking to study in America.
But people who overstay their visa or come in on a student visa but don't go to school ARE a threat. Does it really take another 3,000 dead for people to realize that? This is not about scapegoating it is about protecting Americans."Students should not be scapegoated," Banks said. "Foreign students are an asset and not a threat."
This is idiotic. Why are we wasting time whining about a comprehensive immigration policy instead of protecting the citizens in this country? We need to seal our borders and soon, not only the southern border but the northern one also. Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi made a wrong turn and accidentally crosses the border into Mexico; he has been in a Mexican jail for five months so far because he had firearms with him (which he immediately declared). The United States on the other hand has no idea who is coming in, out, or staying in the country and what they have with them. Of course the vast majority of those "missing" visa students are here with good intent, however it just takes one with nefarious intent to cause a major tragedy.
According to the "social contract" between governments and their populace the number one job of a government is to protect its citizens. The fact that DHS has "lost" more than 6,000 foreigners who have overstayed their visas as well as the other sealing the border issues is a major failure of our government ---both parties. This should be the number one domestic issue above everything else. Minimum wage doesn't matter when your body parts are splattered throughout the neighborhood.
