Don't Let Big Oil Escape California's Climate Law
Big oil is mounting an attack on California's landmark climate pollution reduction rules, and we need your help to fight back!
The oil industry is trying to weaken and delay implementation of California's Global Warming Solutions Act, AB 32. Their powerful lobbyists have recruited an assemblymember to author AB 69, which would allow oil companies to escape from complying with pollution reductions.
Click here to tell your California legislator that we need the oil industry to do its full share to cut pollution from the fuel it supplies.
Since 2006, AB 32 has improved public health by reducing greenhouse gas emissions that force extreme heat events that increase pollution-triggered asthma and breathing difficulty.
Donate used items to benefit Breathe California
Thanks to the generous support of 1600 Hamilton Place in Campbell, Breathe California was the beneficiary of a Goodwill Donation Day. Residents of 1600 Hamilton Place and the immediate surrounding properties dropped off gently used clothing, electronics, small appliances, dishware and other useable items. E-waste items were also be accepted.
Breathe California will also be accepting such items at our offices at 1469 Park Ave. Please bring your items by August 27, and we will add your items to those already collected.
Camp Superstuff 2014 Thanks
Breathe California's 40th Annual Camp Superstuff 2014, a summer asthma camp for kids, had an exciting and successful week this July. Camp Superstuff fosters a friendly and fun environment for asthmatic kids to learn about the disease and its symptoms, as well as how to recognize triggers and use their medication. This year's camp was packed with fun and educational events, including a trip to the Tech Museum in downtown San Jose, ice skating, swimming and a variety of camp games and bonding activities.
Back to school with asthma
Back to school means buying backpacks, lunchboxes, notebooks, pencils and other school supplies. But if you have a child with asthma or food allergies, it also means preparing your child, his or her teachers and school officials to deal possible complications. There are a number of things you can do the help lessen the possibility of an asthma attack or allergic reaction, and to help prepare in case they do occur. Click below to learn more.

Household transitions to energy efficient lighting
AbstractNew energy efficient lighting technologies have the potential to significantly reduce household electricity consumption. But adoption of many technologies has been slow. This paper employs a unique dataset of German households to examine the factors associated with the replacement of old incandescent lamps (ILs) with new energy efficient compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and light emitting diodes (LEDs). The 'rebound' effect of increased light luminosity during the transition to energy efficient bulbs is analyzed jointly with the replacement decision to control for household self-selection in bulb-type choice. The results indicate that the EU ban on ILs accelerated the pace of transition to CFLs and LEDs, while storage of bulbs significantly dampened the speed of the transition. Households also appear responsive to new bulb attributes, as those with stated preferences for energy efficient, environmentally friendly, and durable lighting are more likely to replace ILs with CFLs and LEDs. Higher lighting needs generally spur IL replacement with CFLs or LEDs. However, electricity gains from new energy efficient lighting are mitigated by increases in bulb luminosity; with average increases in luminosity of 23% and 47% upon transitioning to CFLs and LEDs, respectively. --

Opinion at Forbes: Why A Philosopher Teaches PrivacyMonday, August 25th, 2014
At Forbes, Evan Selinger (an associate professor of philosophy at Rochester Institute of Technology) has an opinion column about why privacy is important to philosophy and why he makes it part of his curriculum:
Not too long ago, a privacy course in the humanities would be of limited interest. Many students were predisposed to believe that privacy issues mostly concerned bad things that happened to indiscreet blabbermouths or anxiety experienced by folks with skeletons in the closet—you know, people with something to hide.
But since privacy became a headline-grabbing issue, things have changed. Edward Snowden's revelations about NSA activity, fast-moving developments in surveillance and online information and communication technology, potent advances in data storage and analysis, and the emergence of powerful data brokers have all played a part in making privacy a matter of great daily concern for everyone.

Does anyone really believe that the value of pirated stuff costs the US $250 billion? Most of these numbers come from industry groups like the MPAA, and the RIAA, and they have a vested interest in overstating the reality of their losses. I mean, would all of these people otherwise buy all the movies, music and software that they pirate if they had to pay full price? I doubt it. When the music ain't free, people who pirate wouldn't be downloading thousands of songs.
Still, protecting intellectual property is important if we want content creators to keep producing content. I don't think laws like SOPA, for instance, will actually do anything but hurt innocent website owners and individuals. But we do need some way to enforce intellectual property ownership. What do you think? Are the costs in these infographics for real?

The autism bill didn't pass but the issue of requiring insurance companies to cover a certain therapy for the disorder might still be alive in Pierre.
Parents testifying say Applied Behavior Analysis is their children's best chance to lead productive lives.
"The results that we've seen from this therapy have been tremendous. He went from using two-word phrases, many behaviors, multiple times a day to now speaking in full sentences, asking if he can be excused from the table," Brett Huber said.
But opponents say House Bill 1257 wasn't fair, because not all insurance companies would have had to pay for the expensive therapy. Insurance companies would be exempt if the requirement to cover ABA could have cost the state money.
And Darla Pollman Rogers says insurance companies provide other coverage for people with autism.
"ABA therapy is unproven and there is widespread disagreement in the medical and scientific communities on how well early intensive behavior intervention based on ABA therapy works," Pollman Rogers said.
"I can assure you that if my child were to even be diagnosed with autism; my child would absolutely get ABA. There is no question," Dr. Daisha Seyfer said.
Dr. Daisha Seyfer is a developmental behavioral pediatrician and says research shows the therapy works.
But opponents say when the government requires insurance companies to cover something, premiums go up.
"When premiums increase, they don't increase to the company. They're spread along to the individuals and the small businesses community," Shawn Lyons said.
Some Senators in committee said the strong support and opposition during testimony is proof more compromises are needed, and encouraged both sides to continue talking to find common ground.
Bill sponsor Rep. Scott Munsterman chairs the health committee. He says it's asked for a summer study on this issue.

One of the most amazing sights in nature is that of majestic whales swimming and playing on the ocean's surface, leaping out of the water and slapping their mighty tales. On this 2.5 hour cruise off the shores of Newport Beach, you may see giant blue whales during the summer and fall months or the annual grey whale migration bringing tens of thousands of grey whales along the coast during the winter and spring months. Huge pods of several species of dolphin are very common as are the resident sea lions. You may also catch glimpses of seals, killer whales, sharks and many other marine creatures. With a 96% success rate, almost every cruise has many viewing opportunities. An added plus is picturesque coastal backdrops of Newport Beach, Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach. Learn More

Goldstar, next time give a location where Will Call is, the Coliseum is HUGE, not fun hunting around. It didn't help that Coliseum staff is not very informed either, I asked three event staff personnel before I got a correct answer and walked back and forth more than once between two spots.Robby Gordon's Off-Road Stadium Super Trucks info • Apr 29 2013 star this tip starred

Race was fun to watch and well worth the price paid. The real excitement was behind the entrance when the racers came through the arches. Wow!
Parking at $20 was a rip-off though. I think there is cheaper parking available, but the signs lead...continued

Excellent event!
For more than 20 years, off-road racing champion/legend (and winning IndyCar, NASCAR driver) Robby Gordon has meticulously planned and designed his own vision of what he knew drivers and race fans would like to see, and needed to experience in the return of off-road racing in stadiums. He sought a superior racing platform, unprecedented affordability for teams, efficient delivery of an entertainment product to mass audiences, real world affordability and value for ticket-holding fans, premier stadium venues, a clean family event, and the perfect all-around entertainment product in bringing back this immensely popular sport.
The main shows (races) are on Saturday evenings. National Anthem plays at 6:50 pm with the first heat races starting at 7:00pm. All four divisions will race throughout the evening. A series of brief qualifying races will determine the Main Feature Finals participants. Most races will be between 12 and 20 laps to ensure competitiveness and excitement.

Fashawn - Fash Plays It Cool
Artist: Fashawn
Producer: Alchemist
Album: The Antidote
Avg Rating: 2.7 ( 9 total votes )
Fashawn may still be waiting for his solo debut, the autobiographical Boy Meets World LP, to receive a release date from the label brass (originally scheduled to drop in summer '09, it's been pushed back to October 20th), but the CA buzzmaker's not off his grind—in the meantime, he's been chilling with iconic beatsmith The Alchemist, cooking up The Antidote to lousy-hip-hop malaise. On newly-released lead single Fash Plays It Cool, the artist does just as the title says, spitting chilled-out lyrical fire over Alc's propulsively spacey blend of head-bobbing percussion and gauzy synth burbles. The agile, expressionistic braggadocio the emcee delivers here is about as far as you could get from his tightly-written narrative on the previously-featured Life As A Shorty, but just as compelling—peppered with vivid imagery and nostalgic asides, Fashawn's "miscellaneous raps" blend beautifully with the dreamy beat, and the end result has a hypnotic energy that's hard to resist. Keep it locked to the Booth for release info on Boy Meets World and an exclusive interview with Fashawn.

"I received my order today and I think they are just lovely. The card stock has a nice weight to it and the print quality is very good. The design is darling as well. I'm very pleased with these thank you notes and would recommend them."
"Never order Thank You cards - and always end up searching for them after the party - which makes me late in sending 'Thank You's'. So grateful that this time - before the party I have the Thank You notes - it will save me so much time and wasted guilt after the party. Plus the quality is super. Never again will I order Invites without adding Thank You Cards!"
"I order these as thank you cards for my son's 1st birthday party, which had a construction theme. These cards are perfect!! They are not too big and the quality of paper and picture are top notch!! Being able to customize the title at no charge is a huge bonus and the shipping was lighting fast. Considering that they were a custom print and I received them in less than 10 days I could not be happier!!"
"These cards far exceeded my expectations!! The color is bright, vibrant and just a lot of fun!! Very high quality! I will certainly be ordering again in the future!!"
"Ordered these (not as "thank you" but as a "hello!" note) for my 11 year-old niece's b-day. She's not into flower and typical girly stuff, so this design was perfect for her. It came out beautiful. I do wish, though, that TinyPrints would offer boxes for their products. The "presentation" factor for the stationary as a gift isn't great. I'm going to pull it all out of the plastic & wrap in a ribbon, but wish there was a proper sized box that I could buy in which my niece could keep the stationary."

CNET editors round up the hottest gadgets for Mom this year.
This USB tuner means Xbox One owners can watch TV via their console without switching TV input, and use voice controls too.
Pricing not available
The Xbox One Media Remote is a must-have accessory that makes it much easier to accept a gaming console as the hub of your living room.
With its powerful processor, great camera, decent screen and gorgeous, waterproof design, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is the best small Android phone around.
The Xperia Z1S is the most impressive smartphone Sony has ever sold on any carrier, but an inferior screen makes Samsung's Galaxy handsets better deals.
The cheaper, no-Kinect version of the Xbox One gives buyers a better deal by eliminating the one part of the console they probably didn't want to begin with -- but the PS4 remains a compelling alternative.
Sony's flagship Xperia Z1 packs a Full HD display, a quad-core processor, and a whopping 20.7-megapixel camera into a waterproof body and wraps it in an aluminium frame.
Its high price and imperfect voice control and TV integration keep the Xbox One short of must-have territory, but the inclusion of Titanfall for free (for new purchases) helps Microsoft's console hold the line against Sony's compelling PS4.
We take the Xbox One's racing launch title for a spin and see just how eerily realistic its player-generated, cloud-based AI opponents can be.
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 might be a fresh take on a point-and-shoot camera, but the design ends up being a bit more trouble than it's worth.
Sure, it costs a bundle, but the Sony Xperia Z2 is everything you should expect from a top-end phone. Its impressive performance rivals the Samsung Galaxy S5 for smartphone top dog, but the Z2's slick glass and metal design trumps the S5's plastic body. If you're looking for both style and substance from a phone, you've come to the right place.

SOOO easy. A fix-and-forget oven entree. A very old recipe. If you throw a few baking potatoes in the oven toward the last hour of cooking time, you'll just need to add a salad or quick veggie for a complete meal.

Partington 'drunkenly cut two gas pipes before blast'
Andrew Partington drunkenly cut two gas pipes in his house because his girlfriend had left him and taken their children, the court heard.
He sent a series of Blackberry instant messages to partner Ms Williams on the night before the explosion.
In one he wrote: "Told you next time you leave, house goes up with me. You left your kids with no dad no home. Goodbye. Boom. Gas pipes cut. Already filled up. Boom."
He let his house fill with gas overnight, but said he woke up and cut the gas supply and opened windows.
Partington then lit a cigarette, with devastating consequences.

A Mulligan in golf is, of course, a second chance without consequences. A "do-over". Some take Mulligan's more frequently than others, but that is a discussion for another day, possibly when the fall weather is not so bitting.
The Court in a recent Ontario case (Small Claims Court) highlighted the need for employers to clearly provide working notice or risk a court concluding that the notice was ineffective or at least ineffective in the manner the employer hoped. The case is Bomhof v Eunoia Incorporated, 2013 CanLII 65859 (ON SC).
In this case the employer, due to market conditions, terminated the employment of its clinical trials coordinator "on notice". It's letter was dated January 3, 2011 and the termination was effective on February 11, 2011 (some 5 weeks after the date of the letter). On January 11, 2011, the employee brought to the employer's attention that the employers' notice failed to comply with the Employment Standards Act, 2000.
According to the Court:
[the employer] responded by handing her a revised termination letter on January 11, 2011, in which the termination date was changed from February 11 to February 25, but the date of the letter remained January 3. He acknowledged to Ms. Bomhof that he had been mistaken about the duration of her employment. January 3 to February 25 would be a working notice period of just under 8 weeks. January 11 to February 25 would be roughly 6.5 weeks.
The Court relied on Di Tomaso v. Crown Metal Packaging Canada LP (2011), 282 O.A.C. 134 (C.A.) where the Court of Appeal held that that a notice of termination must be "clear and unambiguous" and "must include the final termination date." In Bomhoff, this was determinative to the Court's conclusion that:
Something as important to employees and employers as the effective date of termination should not be subject to unilateral change by the employer without affecting the effective date of the notice. Such a position would create unnecessary and inappropriate uncertainty in employment law, both at common law and under the Employment Standards Act, 2000, S.O. 2000, c. 41
The notice began to run from January 11, 2011, not January 3, 2011.
The Court found, on the usual Bardal factors, that the terminated employee was entitled to 10 months reasonable notice at common law.
The employer argued that the terminated employee had a duty to mitigate her losses and that she failed to do so.
The Court confirmed that the employer bears the burden of proving that the employee failed meet her duty to mitigate. The Supreme Court of Canada put it this way in the leading case of Red Deer College v. Michaels, 1975 CanLII 15 (SCC):
It seems to be the generally accepted rule that the burden of proof is upon the defendant to show that the plaintiff either found, or, by the exercise of proper industry in the search, could have procured other employment of an approximately similar kind reasonably adapted to his abilities, and that in absence of such proof the plaintiff is entitled to recover the salary fixed by the contract.
The employer has a heavy onus and the Court summarized some of the elements as follows:
To overcome the onus, the employer must show that the employee's conduct was unreasonable in all respects. (Somir v. Kohler Canada Co., 2006 CanLII 42369 (ON SC))
According to the court, the defence must also demonstrate that the alleged failure to mitigate in fact caused the plaintiff to earn reduced income during the notice period. As was said in Rowe v. General Electric Canada Inc., 1994 CanLII 7389 (ON SC):
Proving a failure to take reasonable steps to mitigate is not sufficient - there must be direct evidence, or evidence sufficient to support an inference, that the omission of the plaintiff was causative. The evidence must prove that the plaintiff failed to take reasonable steps to mitigate the loss and that had such steps been taken they would have reduced the loss. The breach of the plaintiff's duty to mitigate will only be relevant if the breach is proved to be causative.
In Rowe the Court concluded that the terminated employee had not taken all reasonable steps to seek alternative employment. In particular, he failed to avail himself of the outplacement counseling services and other services put at his disposal (no charge) by the employer. That said, the Court found that "the evidence does not establish that had he done so the loss would have been less." As such, the Court dismissed the employers' mitigation argument.
The Court reached the same conclusion in Bomhof:
In the case at bar, my conclusion is that the defence has failed to establish on a balance of probabilities that the plaintiff's damages would have been reduced in whole or in part by her alleged failure to mitigate. The evidence falls short of proof on a balance of probabilities of the causation element of the alleged failure to mitigate. There is no evidence that any specific position was available and I am not satisfied that had Ms. Bomhof applied, for example, to any potential hospital positions that she probably would have attained such a position and secured better income during the notice period.
The Court also suggested that the mitigation obligation might be somewhat different for someone who was 64 years of age (as in this case) than "than for younger people".
The Court does a very nice job reviewing the authorities on mitigation.

QUESTION: If a 55-year-old has been 20 or more pounds overweight for decades, what small changes can they make to lifestyle that will jump start a new way of living healthfully?
Expert: Jamey Lachiana
Exercise Physiologist
Yangs Fitness Center
Answer: Small changes can make a gigantic impact on someone who has been overweight for most of their life and are looking to better their wellness. The very best way to lose weight is to decrease the amount of food/calories you consume on a daily basis. This can start as a very minute change such as going from whole milk in your coffee to skim milk or drinking it black, like I do. Or it can be a more proactive change like cutting down on your extras throughout the day i.e. snacking, alcohol, desserts and large portions. Cutting down on sugar-filled sport drinks or sodas, and replacing them with water, can make a huge impact on your waist size as well.
As we age, many people tend to become less active. Mom isn't setting up play dates anymore, friends are too busy with work to get together, or being a parent takes up a lot of the day. However, we need to be proactive enough that we replace our old activities with new, healthy activities. Working out even 30 minutes a day can cause a major change on the scale.
A great example of a recent success story is my father. He is in his late 50s and has been holding onto 30-plus pounds for decades. After years of nagging him to make changes, he finally gave in. He now works out 20 to 45 minutes a day. He spends half of his time doing cardio intervals and the other half doing various weight exercises I taught him. He cut down his portion sizes, and makes healthier food choices. Those changes alone have cut down his food urges greatly.

No the dirty secret is when IT people are young we are all naive, idealistic Libertarians who couldn't fathom the idea that Labor might need protection from Capital when the Free Market can clearly fix all ills if only the government would get out of the way. When we're older one of two things has happened: we're in management and on the other side of the table, or we're still in the trenches and we'd rather dangle in the breeze than swallow the bitter pill of our own reality or try to convince the new, naive. idealistic, Libertarian junior coworker that he's getting the shit end of the stick on purpose.

Putting aside the whole whitespace debate(*), I'm pretty sure that python has its own list of issues. Maybe not to the same extent as PHP, but they exist.
Picking a programming language is like picking an application, though. It's not about picking the syntax. That's not particularly relevant unless you're looking at Brainfuck or INTERCAL or GW-BASIC. You start by deciding what capabilities you need. There are inevitably several choices that meet your technical requirements, so in the end you're picking a language based on whatever set of limitations and issues you're willing to work with.
I should also add that what they are doing is at best a "semi-formal specification". Still pretty clunky.
That seems appropriate considering the topic.
Application support always says to turn off everything that might possibly interfere with their precious application. They would have you shut down the operating system if they didn't need it. Application support lives in a fairy land where the only thing they have to worry about is their application. They don't have to fix anything if the application isn't broken. They have no interest in anything else. A good vendor will program their application to work with the system standards. Most ISVs are not good vendors.
As a system or network admin, you have to protect the application from the rest of the network and protect the rest of the network from the application and protect everything from the users and the Internet. Part of doing that is firewalling the crap out of your core network, and if you can't do that you should be looking at adding more VLANs and controlling traffic that way.
The possibility of a resonance cascade scenario is extremely unlikely!
The school district wasn't blindsided. The county was.
I work at a school district, so let me tell you how public schools get their Internet. Obviously it's going to vary, but from what I've seen our situation is the most common.
Every building in a district runs fiber between their buildings to a central building where the district's servers are kept. It could be in the basement of the high school or some administrative building, but that's what happens. It's easy enough for the district to do capacity planning. Each school district may then connect to an intermediate school district, but ultimately then connects to the county's municipal network. This network is the ISP that connects every municipal office, such as city, village, police, fire, public works, etc. to the Internet. In my state, Michigan, the county connects to a statewide municipal network originally put in place to connect the public universities to the proto-Internet for research (our ISP, Merit, was founded in 1966).
In this story, the problem is at the county level, the middle man between the school and the state-wide network. This is not particularly surprising, since since in every case I've seen, the county is a) poorly funded, b) poorly staffed, and c) tends to be forgotten about. When a neighboring district went 1-to-1 at the high school level with lots of online classes, they did reasonable capacity planning for the district's small network and quadrupled the bandwidth from the high school to the district servers, and the district to the county (the district consists of 3 buildings on the same plot of land, so it was fairly simple). What they didn't do was consider that the county level needed upgrades as well. My district is about 8500 students across more than a dozen buildings, and this was about 200 students in just one building (grades 9 and 10). They were using about 90% of the bandwidth on our connection. That district got moved to a different connection pretty quickly, but until then nobody in our district could use the Internet during the school day.
And what if you have a house fire, break in, or accident?
So, what, all Windows patents are invalidated?
If they actually provide a service that people need, then why are they so afraid of direct sales? It seems to me that, like home realtors, car dealerships ought to be perfectly capable of functioning in a mixed market.

The United States Secret Service has posted a new job opportunity online, and it is one that has been getting people talking, in large part due to one strange requirement. Not only does this top government office that's charged with keeping our Commander in Chief safe want experts in social media monitoring – firms like Research Optimus, for instance – to ferret out trends, but they also want technical experts to be able to distinguish sarcasm from realistic threats.
It isn't the requests for the program to be compatible with Internet Explorer 8 that has tongues wagging, but the desire for the tool "to detect sarcasm and false positives" that is morphing the job into the realm of artificial intelligence.
Indeed, the ability to detect sarcasm in Twitter status updates might be a tall order for any developer to fulfill, especially since sarcasm is often more readily pegged by a person's tone of voice or inflection. Alas, the correct tool with no doubt thousands of lines of code in its algorithm could be able to discern an automatic way to decipher the hallmarks of sarcasm in social media updates. Those factors could include plentiful usage of exclamation points and capital letters, although subtler shades of sarcasm would be more difficult to detect.
In essence, the five-year government contract seeks a company that's able to create a real-time social media software analytics tool that's able to monitor massive amounts of data in an automated fashion. The winning company would have to prove they are able to uncover patterns in the huge data sets of tweets, updates, etc., and then present their findings in a way that non-technical personnel can understand.
With one of the edicts of the job being the ability to "provide user friendly functionality to multiple staff members," it sounds like the government body is asking for a pretty graphic user interface – known as a GUI in the technology world – that would let them be able to click a button and perhaps have the social media monitoring tool spit out the latest terrorism threat's likely locale, for example.
It sounds like a good tool, one that will be greatly needed as the online world of big data increases exponentially. Besides, imagine how many Secret Service agents it would take to manually perform a task like this. The clarion call also sounds like the perfect opportunity for the right company with enough expertise – and cloud storage space, I'd imagine – to handle the job and come up with the right answers.
"Award will be made to one vendor for all items," writes the government. And though they mention they have a "firm fixed price," they don't explicitly state the amount of money they'll be shelling out for such a program.
However, on the heels of the Edward Snowden controversy with the NSA, it'll be interesting to note how privacy pundits react to this latest bit of "spying" news. At least in this case the words being spied upon have already been published in public.
