An Egyptian court convicted an ultraconservative Islamist, who is an ally of ousted president Mohammed Morsi, of forging official documents to conceal that his mother was a U.S. citizen, sentencing Wednesday him to seven years in prison.
Hazem Salah Abu-Ismail, a lawyer turned TV preacher, also received two one-year sentences over the course of his trial in Cairo after the presiding judge twice found him in contempt of court. Abu-Ismail has refused to recognize the jurisdiction of the court or accept legal representation.
Wednesday's verdict can be appealed.
Abu-Ismail was arrested days after Egypt's military overthrew Morsi on July 3, 2013 following mass protests. Since then, authorities have conducted a sweeping crackdown on the former Islamist leader's supporters and allies, detaining at least 16,000 people, including Morsi himself. Many now face criminal charges.
The case against Abu-Ismail is rooted in his failed 2012 presidential bid. He submitted forged documents to the elections commission and was disqualified after allegations surfaced that his late mother had U.S. citizenship. Egyptian law bars anyone whose parents hold any other nationality from running for president.
Abu-Ismail had denied his mother held U.S. citizenship, but documents revealed in the media showed she was on a voter registration list in California and became an American citizen before her death.
Morsi also was in court Wednesday, where he is on trial with 35 co-defendants on charges of conspiring with foreign groups to destabilize Egypt. During the session, the court reviewed evidence presented by the prosecutors, including reports by the state security agency and the general intelligence agency, pictures of alleged members of the Muslim Brotherhood during a visit to the Gaza Strip.
One of the videos showed a man, allegedly a defendant in the case named Khalil Osama el-Aqeed, holding a rocket propelled grenade, but el-Aqeed denied it was him. Another picture purportedly of el-Aqeed showed him carrying a machine-gun inside a smuggling tunnel between Egypt and Gaza, according to Egypt's state news agency MENA.
One of Morsi's senior aides, Essam el-Haddad, who has been in detention since July 3, insisted to the court that he was "kidnapped" and that his detention was unlawful.
Morsi, who was Egypt's first democratically elected president, and his supporters have refused to acknowledge the military-backed government that took power after the army removed Morsi from office. Brotherhood supporters and other Islamists have held near-daily protests that have often turned bloody following crackdowns from security agencies.
With most of the Brotherhood's leadership in prison, students have been at the forefront of the protest movement. On Wednesday, clashes erupted inside the Islamist al-Azhar university in Cairo, and professors urged students to vacate Ain Shams university, amid demonstrations by pro-Morsi students.

For new questions please post at magento.stackexchange.com, the community-run support site for the Magento community. We will be providing updates on the new forum solution soon. For questions or concerns please email email@example.com.
Just Upgraded to magento 1.3.1 from 1.3.0 and the back end admin area is now painfully slow.
Its taking 3-4 mins to load every single page! before upgrading the backend was lightning fast so its def an issue with the new version.
The pagesdo all load eventually it just takes forever.
this happens regardless of the browser im using. ive tried refreshing all cache and rebuiling everything. have also clear everything out of the var/cahce directory with no luck
is anyone else experiencing this? any ideas?
Yes, I'm also experiencing this exactly as you describe it. I've tried upgrading via the downloader and via the full package, both with the same results. It's incredibly frustrating.
What's weird is, I set up a test site that used another database and hostname, and it seemed to upgrade OK - the admin wasn't slow at all.
Perhaps it could possibly have something to do with skin updates? When I installed via the full package, the only things I copied across were app/etc/local.xml, and the contents of app/design/frontend/ and skin/frontend/ - nothing else.
Thanks for the "tip". My freshly installed and updated CentOS machine with 1.3.1 experienced the same problem. All required and optional packages installed and permissions set. Cleared that installation out, downloaded 1.3.0 and all is well.
Oh, yeah, I should've said: this is hosting on CentOS 5.3 with Apache 2.2.3 and PHP 5.2.8.
Which browser do you use? Opera is at least twice as fast in the JS heavy admin panel as Firefox.
I use Opera 9.64 under Windows XP. This isn't a browser issue, though - this is the server not responding, for 3 or 4 minutes as the original poster said.
Very very slow.
I have an error :

Yes I have noticed this also, admin pages are taking twice, maybe three times longer to load compared with version 1.2!
Any word from the Magento Team on this?
I am a brand new Magento user, so I have nothing to previously base my assessment on, but I also notice that the admin pages take FOREVER to load. At first I just thought it was my webhost (shared server), but after some investigation I realized that that wasn't the issue. Because this is my first initial install I don't have any experience downgrading (or upgrading for that matter), is it possible for me to downgrade to 1.3.0? If so, can someone please point me in the direction of some instructions on downgrading?
The admin panel is unbearably slow, it took me over 10minutes just to change 3 attribute sets (add an attribute to each set and save), that doesn't seem right. Aside from this one little hiccup everything else is going smoothly with my 1st Magento experience.
OK, this is totally bizarre.
We have a site with Magento 1.3.0 installed, www.example.com.
After upgrading to Magento 1.3.1, www.example.com/admin becomes incredibly slow.
To look into this problem, we set up a test site, test.example.com, with a copy of the live site and a copy of the live database.
After upgrading the test site to 1.3.1, everything's fine - including the admin.
When trying to change the test site to start using the live database, it's still fine.
Renaming the document root directory of the test site to become the document root of the live site, and the admin becomes incredibly slow.
The only thing that's changed since test.example.com became www.example.com is the hostname and the path to the document root: how on earth can that affect the loading times of the admin pages?
Incidentally, the rest of the site is fine.
Hmm, is your main website behind a proxy or so and the test website not? If yes, check this: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/39726/
Generally I would have a look at what outbound calls magento makes and check whether these might cause problems. Otherwise - no idea, sorry…
Good luck
Hi Claudia. Thanks for the reply.
To answer your question, no, both sites are on the same server, behind the same firewall. All I did to move the test site to the example site was a simple mv command. test.example.com and www.example.com both point to the same CNAME, have the same setup in Apache, and were at the time set up to use the same database.
Do y ou have any hints as to how would I look at the outbound calls Magento might be making? (I mean with regards to Magento code.)
Right! Finally found out what's going on.
Claudia - your instincts were correct: it's to do with an outbound call.
First, to explain what I was seeing above: in my description, I forgot about one thing: www.example.com was using SSL, and test.example.com wasn't. So, when going to https://test.example.com/, because of the Apache configuration, it was actually serving up the content from https://www.example.com - which is why it "started" being slow when moving from http://test.example.com to https://www.example.com.
The problem: the reason it's so slow is because our firewall blocks outbound calls on port 443, and the admin section makes an outbound request for https://widgets.magentocommerce.com/notificationPopup.swf if you have SSL configured. If you don't have SSL configured, it uses http://widgets.magentocommerce.com/notificationPopup.swf - and our firewall allowed port 80, which is why the test site was working OK.
This is, in my opinion, wrong: the site shouldn't be making outbound calls at all; but, I doubt anyone else is going to care. We are able to solve it by reconfiguring our firewall setup, but for anyone unable to do this and unable to have outbound calls, they're stuck. As to why the .swf file isn't just included in the distribution anyway, that's anyone's guess.
It is good to hear that you solved the problem!
Frankly I would not have known how to check for outbound calls on a live server anyway - I just tried that once on my local test machine, where I simply could look at the router logs…
Regarding the swf file itself:
Maybe it would be possible to download the swf file and change the url of the swf file in Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Notification_Window.php accordingly? I haven't tried, but I don't see a reason why this should not work.
Weirdly enough you can disable/enable using https for the feed messages themselves in the system configuration - I don't know why they don't use the same setting for the swf file (or why they fetch the swf file from magentocommerce at all).
Greetings from Luxembourg
I have a slow admin panel but this is the debug code that show up at every instance when the server runs slow.
array (
'ZDEDebuggerPresent' => 'php,phtml,php3',
can anyone enlighten me to what is going on =)
Just wanted to add my experience with this:
I have 2 magento installs 18.104.22.168 on two different servers both using SSL. I did the first install on a shared server hosting about 60 websites. The site is in production and everything runs quite fast in the admin, so no problem here. I then moved to do an installation on the second (dedicated server) and I was totally amazed at how slow the admin section was running. Every single thing I would do was taking up to 30 seconds to finally get done, the slowest pages to load were dashboard and customers pages. I tried disabling some unused modules (notifications, google checkout etc...) but no change. Added crontab so magento would process cron.php, added sitmap and did a whole bunch of other things to find out where the problem could be but no performance improvement at all. Then at one point, I logged out, cleared the cache folder manually and re-logged in the admin section. The first acces was amazingly fast ! Thinking I got the problem fixed, I started going in different sections of admin and while I was doing it, pages started again to load slower and slower to finally end up at the same slow speed I was experiencing at the beginning. I repeated the same thing I did as described above a couple of times, cleared cache and use the admin section and got the exact same results. I knew then that it was a cache problem but had no clue how to fix it up to the point where I changed permission rights on the cache folder. My cache folder was set to 777 and I changed permissions to 766. Cleared content, logged in admin. The speed came back and now is constant ! I really don't understand why it is (on my other server cache folder is set to 777) but that is the only way for me to get good speed from the admin. I would be very interested to find out why though.
Hope this can help someone

Dick Harmon: In SDSU-BYU pregame heat, video coordinator Chad Bunn to be defended
Stuart Johnson, Deseret News
A warning shot has been fired.
Because BYU and San Diego State will renew their relationship in a bowl game in San Diego on Dec. 20, certainly the name of Chad Bunn will surface.
If it does, beware. He's got legal beagles on the case this time.
If somebody takes on Bunn, that person will face an oven.
You might remember the case of Bunn. He was part of a team in the video replay booth during BYU's last win over San Diego State in LaVell Edwards Stadium. When an apparent J.J. Diluigi fumble was ruled on the field as a non-fumble and a replay booth official upheld that call, most of San Diego almost fell into the Pacific Ocean.
Folks at SDSU, by leaking MWC conversations to the media that cover the Aztecs, blamed Bunn, a BYU employee, and used him as a scapegoat.
Shortly after Poinsettia Bowl officials announced last week that SDSU would play BYU, somebody sent me a copy of a San Diego newspaper column from two years ago that read:
"Would J. Edgar Hoover invite Julius and Ethel Rosenberg to sit in on security meetings? Would Gen. Washington text Benedict Arnold with his battle plans for Yorktown? Would the Mountain West Conference allow a Brigham Young University employee to work in the replay booth during last Saturday's San Diego State football game? The answer to the first two questions: Of course not. The answer to the third: Of course."
He went on, disparaging Bunn over and over again.
Fact is, the MWC often used staff from home teams to help with game production and the replay booth, but these locals don't make decisions. Bunn's case was no different. But you get the idea, the setting and the edge back two years ago.
Chad Bunn, an honorable man, devoted husband, father and son, never responded in public. In fact, when the MWC suspended the chief replay official, whose job it was to review and issue a decision, Bunn volunteered to be suspended for a week, because he was part of the team. That's the kind of guy he is.
The MWC then approached Bunn to continue to do its basketball tournament in Las Vegas, primarily because he is one of the best in the business at tagging and producing game videos in a lightning quick operation.
Beating up on Bunn will not go unanswered this time, according to Alan W. Mortensen, an attorney for the law firm of Dewsnup, King and Olsen in Salt Lake City.
When a Utah radio sports talk host revisited that last SDSU-BYU football game, and blasted Bunn, previewing this year's Poinsettia Bowl, Mortensen fired off a cease and desist letter and asked for an apology.
For the first time I know of, somebody publicly defended and explained Bunn's role in the booth that day, beyond his title as communicator.
"Let me be clear," said Mortensen, "he was not the review official. It is the review official's position to make replay calls. Mr. Bunn, per MWC protocol, was only providing the video feeds requested by Mike Angelis, who was the replay official. It was Mr. Angelis who made the decision on whether to reverse the call you fixate on."
Citing MWC procedures memos on video replay, Mortensen pointed out: "The replay official is in charge of the replay booth and has ultimate decision-making authority to review, confirm or reverse on-field rulings."
Bunn was responsible to provide Angelis the play to him "as requested and bookmark replays as directed by Replay Official." Mortensen added, "Mr. Bunn has no involvement in not overturning the fumble."

Justin Bieber was set to plead guilty Wednesday to misdemeanor charges in connection with his racing arrest in Miami Beach earlier this year He'll also agree to take an anger management course. Take a look back at Bieber's long history of bad behavior.
October 2010: Police begin investigating Bieber after he is accused of assaulting a 12-year-old at a laser tag arena. He is later cleared of all charges.
May 2011: CSI star Marg Helgenberger hints at Bieber's bad behavior after the singer films a two-episode arc. "I shouldn't be saying this, but he was kind of a brat," Helgenberger says. "He was very nice to me, but he locked one of the producers in a closet, and he put his fist through a cake that was on the actors' table."
May 2012: Bieber is involved in a scuffle with a paparazzo while leaving a mall with then-girlfriend Selena Gomez. The photographer files a police report, saying Bieber kicked and punched him, but because there is not sufficient evidence, including any apparent sign of injury, no criminal charges are filed.
January and February 2013: Bieber moons fans on Instagram and shortly after, pictures surface of him and two friends surrounded by sizzurp and blunts. Sizzurp -- also known as purple drank, syrup and lean -- is a mix of codeine-based prescription cough syrup, soda and, often, Jolly Ranchers candy.
March 2013: Bieber is held back from attacking a photographer outside his London hotel after the man calls him names and threatens the singer. Bieber leapt out of the vehicle, screaming "I'll beat the f--- out of you."
March 2013: Bieber's pet capuchin monkey Mally is detained by German customs officials when the singer flies into Munich without the proper documents. When Bieber never returns for his formerly beloved pet, Mally is moved to a zoo near in northern Germany.
July 2013: A videotape surfaces of Bieber peeing in a restaurant mop bucket in New York from earlier in the year. As Bieber runs off, he sprays a photograph of Bill Clinton with a bottle of blue liquid and yells, "F--- Bill Clinton!" Bieber later apologizes to the former president. "@billcinton thanks for taking the time to talk Mr. President. Your words meant alot [sic]. #greatguy" he tweets.
November 2013: Bieber is detained in Australia while customs agents search him and a member of his entourage for drugs. He was stopped after using "inappropriate language" toward the agents, but is released with a warning. Bieber's friend later pays a fine after officials discover a vaporizer that had marijuana residue in it.
November 2013: Bieber is charged with vandalism in Brazil for spray-painting the wall of a building with the face of a monkey wearing hoop earrings and a nose ring — an image some called racist. The incident happens a week after the singer was escorted away by police while spray-painting a wall in Colombia.
January 2014: Bieber allegedly takes part in egging his neighbor's Calabasas home, causing thousands of dollars worth of damage. Police detain Bieber in his garage while they execute a felony search warrant looking for evidence. During the raid, Bieber's friend Lil Za is arrested for cocaine possession, which is found inside Bieber's home.
Jan. 23, 2014: Bieber is arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and drag racing in Miami Beach, Fla. Police said Bieber and rapper Khalil (who was also arrested) were drag racing a Lamborghini and Ferrari shortly after 4 a.m. at about 60 mph in a residential area where the speed limit is 30 mph. According to the police report, Bieber failed a field sobriety test.

Bieber and his father were also reportedly "verbally abusive" the the flight attendant, causing her to hide out in the cockpit.
May 2014: Bieber is investigated by Los Angeles police for a possible attempted robbery after a woman claimed he tried to steal her phone for taking pictures of him at a miniature golf course. Charges have yet to be filed.
May 2014: Bieber was in hot water twice in the same week after a video surfaced of a 14-year-old Bieber singing his 2009 hit single "One Less Lonely Girl," but replacing the word girl with the N-word, as he jokes about killing African-Americans and joining the Ku Klux Klan. The offensive footage made its way online just days after another clip was unveiled in which Bieber uses the N-word as the punchline of a racist joke.

You can tell a lot about a family by its Christmas card: you can tell the family members' level of affluence, their comfort with displaying affection, the fact that they're not Jewish. Yes, judging other people based solely on their yuletide missives is a holiday tradition for many of us. And it's all the more fun when they're famous. We already got a glimpse at the Kardashians' Kristmas Kard (it's actually a finable offense to write the letter "C" when you're referencing the family), depicting the pop culture dynasty's luxurious embrace of winter festivity. And now, a clan from the other side of the reality television genre has released its greeting: the Honey Boo Boos.
In the new image, the Thompson and Shannon hybrid gather together to provide quite a different sort of celebration than the spectacle displayed in the Kardashians' kard. In place of the glitz and glamour showcased by the E! genera, we have a smaller, simpler, more intimate exhibition this time around. And when you compare the style of the Kardashians to the substance of Honey Boo Boo's inner circle, you're bound to ask yourself the all-important question: which is better? In life's endless array of scathing, bone-breaking competitions, we are faced with deciding which reality television family has the preferable Christmas card. Which best exemplifies the solstice? Who brings pride to the December holiday? Whose winter seems more content? Check out both images, and then join us in running through the categories of holiday cheer below...
The Kardashians earn credit for draping the entire family in white, with a backdrop to match. And what are those glittery things falling from the abyss? You might be able to call that a gentle flurry. (2 points)
The HBBs don't really look prepared for winter as far as attire goes (they'd be freezing where many of us come from), but they've got some bona fide snowflakes to make up for it. (1 point)
Babies and Animals
Everybody loves animals, and some people love babies. The Kardashians love both, with two infants (2 points) and one cat (1 point). Unfortunately, the cat in the box might actually be dead in that picture (in which case, negative 10 points).
On the other side of things, we've got one baby and no animals. Try and pick up your game, Boo Boos! (1 point)
You've got to give it to the Ks here. It looks like the entire herd is about to burst out in a holiday-themed power ballad. (5 points)
The Thompshans don't really put a whole mess of chutzpah into their presentation. Just your average family, sitting happily amongst one another, waiting for the flash. (0 points) But that might be just what Christmas is all about, which brings us to our final category...
The all-important, immeasurable quality of love. On the one hand, you have the Kardashians, who banded their entire pack together to put on a festive show in the most Kardashian form imaginable. And then there is the family of Honey Boo Boo, huddling together, smiling genuinely, probably soliciting a more familiar picture to the lot of us. In this category, we can happily decree a duality in triumph. With all the negative sentiments tossed their way, these families both exemplify something that warrants value in our society: the appreciation of family. The Kardashians and Thompsons/Shannons alike work to showcase just how adherently they are bound to the other members of their families. Whether the means by which each does so takes the form of puttin' on the ritz or simply forming a small scrum of merriment, it makes no difference. All family members in both pictures have made show business fame on how much they cherish their loved ones. And no matter what holiday you celebrate, you've got to pinpoint that theme as the makings of one great Christmas card. (Infinity points all around)
Happy holidays, everyone! Go hug your siblings.

Binge Marathon Sundays 5/4c
What You're Saying About Brock's Illness
Throughout Breaking Bad Season 4, AMC will award Talk Forum commenters quoted in our weekly "What You're Saying" post with prizes (limit one per person).This week, commenters will receive Season 3 DVD sets. Next week: Heisenberg T-shirts.
Breaking Bad fans are buzzing this week about Brock's sudden illness and trip to the hospital, with commenters on the Talk Forum debating whether or not Brock was poisoned — and if so, by whom. Here's a sampling of what people are saying:
• "I just think its a BIG stretch that anyone poisoned him. If he did get into the poison at all. Someone already used the term 'red herring.'" — Handysmurf
• "This is Breaking Bad here, they wouldn't just introduce something like this and have it be a complete coincidence. Would you be satisfied with the explanation that the kid just happened to get sick on the same day Jesse randomly lost his ricin cigarette?" — tonyg567
• "Gus poisoned the kid. It was his appropriate response to Jesse not signing off on killing Walt." — Wayne
Log onto the Talk forum to join in any of these conversations or start a Breaking Bad topic of your own.

Yes. In fact, you should get the H1N1 vaccine and the seasonal flu vaccine.
I suggest that you get the vaccines by injection, rather than by nasal spray. The shots contain parts of killed viruses. The nasal sprays contain live viruses that have been altered. They should not cause any flu-like illness.
But because you have a condition that affects your immune system and you take medication that also can impair your immunity, there is a small risk that a live virus could become active in you. That's why the shots would be my preference for you.
Perhaps you have been reluctant to get the H1N1 vaccine because of safety concerns. Manufacturers have followed exactly the same procedures to make H1N1 flu shots as they used to make seasonal flu shots. So, apart from the viral particles used to make the vaccine, the recipe is the same as for regular flu vaccines. It is therefore just as safe as the seasonal flu vaccine and carries similar risks.

Reflections on day one
... best part is when you get to exit the plane you get to see business class and silently weep as your sleep deprived body thinks of how that would feel... I initally thought the shopping you could do with the cash couldnt justify the cost. I have chged my mind!! So off the plane and waiting for mini bus to arrive. Bus arrives and was comforting to know our two countries are so similar - the bus driver was Indian :) Got to hotel about 9.30am or so ...

North America transit time
... The most interesting thing we saw was a skateboarding dog ( video below ) On our way to the airport we went to a really nice, small sushi restaurant, Hama sushi and ate the most delicious array of sashimi and sushi rolls, prepared right before our eyes. A great way to end our trip. And sate Tashi's obsessive sushi cravings. Now we just have a 14 hour flight home back to Melbourne. Thanks for reading. I'm sure we will see you all again ...

I am seeking ANY information on Samuel Dansby who married Serena Anne Johnson on Oct. 23, 1853 in Washington County, Texas. Together they appear on some deed records in Brazos County. Samuel died in 1854 before the birth of his daughter Gertrude. Serena soon moved with her family to Comal County, Texas and married John Marion Watson in Comal county on August 13, 1857. Together John and Serena had 9 children. John and Serena were my Gr-gr-grandparents.
Gertrude (it is not known if she took the name of Watson and/or was adopted by John Watson or not) as an adult married Rector C. Hope, her cousin, the son of Richard Hope and Emily F. Johnson, Serena's sister. Gertrude and Rector had four children, two of which died very young. Gertrude died in 1882 leaving three of her children and husband as survivors. For reasons not fully known, John Watson was appointed as the children's guardian and before the legal proceedings were complete, one of the children had died. John and Serena raised the two surviving children.
All I know of Samuel Dansby is what I have mentioned here. I am certain that he is related to the other Dansby's of Brazos / Washington County area, just have not been able to find anything more of him. Hope you might have something.
Thanks...Don Watson

Flowers and Gandhi
Madurai was a bit of a flying visit and I didn't really feel like we got a true feel for the place. We arrived late in the afternoon and had to leave early the next evening but we had a lot to cram in! The first day, we had a quick orientation walk and visited a flower market. The flower market was beautiful but, as it opens at 3am and we got there at around 5pm, most of the flowers were gone. There flowers that were left were ...

So far Shiva has rebuffed her sexual advances. This is good for the ...
Madurai - Back in the big city
... JC Residency Hotel in Madurai, which clearly caters to business travellers, also did not serve alcohol. Three days without alcohol is a reminder that we are in a different culture, and quite frankly made me think about the position of alcohol in New Zealand society in a different light. Is it really necessary to have liquor outlets in every small group of shops? Anyway, I hope our next stop allows us to feed our addiction, but I fear this will not be the ...

Braz Enterprises showcased its Cord Caddy at last week's Affordable Innovation event, hosted by the International Housewares Association. The Cord Caddy is designed as a practical solution for tangled electrical cords, especially for frequently used household items such as hair dryers and styling devices, or for electronic or lamp cords.
The Cord Caddy is a flexible tube that holds an electric cord when not in use or part of the cord not being used. On handled appliances, such as irons, because it is flexible, the Caddy can squeeze into a handle, neatly keeping the cord in place during storage. In addition, the Cord Caddy comes with a clip that fits on cords and attaches to the tube, ensuring it stays attached to a device when the cord is in use. The Cord Caddy has a suggested retail price of between $3.99 and $4.99, according to Braz Enterprises.

UPDATE: UBS Investment Research Downgrades United States Steel Corporation on Mixed Factors
In a report published Tuesday, UBS Investment Research analyst Matt Murphy downgraded the rating on United States Steel Corporation (NYSE: X) from Buy to Neutral, but raised the price target from $22.00 to $25.00.
In the report, UBS Investment Research noted, "As an integrated steel producer, X has been burdened by high fixed costs in the weak steel markets of recent years and high legacy liabilities due to low discount rates. We expect US Steel to benefit from reduced pension liabilities in 2014, while also improving margins through cost reduction and revenue maximization efforts currently underway. However, we remain concerned about increasing competition in X's most profitable segment, Tubular goods, and we only see sector capacity utilization reaching higher levels in 2016, meaning margins could remain weak in the medium term. We rate US Steel a Neutral and our $25 PT is based on a 7.0x EV/EBITDA (2015) multiple."
United States Steel Corporation closed on Monday at $24.01.

President Obama used his State of the Union speech to try to redraw the political landscape, placing himself at its center while working to give vulnerable Democrats a shot at surviving what could be brutal midterm elections in November.
Obama limped into the address with weak poll numbers and a stalled agenda after one of the worst years of his time in office — and quickly set about trying to turn the tables on Republicans while arming his party with political weapons.
Here are five takeaways from (and some questions about) the 65-minute address, with the caveat that we may not know until after election day in November whether the remarks were a success.
1) I'm out of order? You're out of order!
That famous movie-trial misquote captures one of the dynamics at the heart of Obama's speech. On issue after issue, the president sent this message: "Hey, I am working with CEOs, college presidents, mayors, governors, state legislatures, foreign partners — heck, even Iran. But HouseRead More »from 5 takeaways from Obama's State of the Union

Don't Distress: This Denim Looks Good On Everyone
Generally speaking, rips and tears require either a trip to the tailor or a place in the trash. But, there's one article of clothing that's an out-and-out exception to the rule: Apparently, the more distressed your denim is, the trendier you are these days. It's likely the reason we've noticed celebrities like Olivia read

Since I became a practicing lawyer, I've been called for jury duty four times: twice in Dallas County (where I lived from 1997 to 2003), and twice in Travis County (where I live now). This past week, I served my second stint as an actual juror.
My first experience as a juror was in Dallas. It was a felony assault case with facts better suited to a soap opera than a criminal trial. As we began deliberating, one juror announced that he didn't care what any of us said; he didn't trust the Dallas Police Department, and he would never vote to convict the defendant. The gentleman stuck to his guns, even though everyone else thought the defendant guilty. Just as we were about to send out a note telling the judge we were deadlocked, we were notified that the prosecution and defense had reached a plea agreement. Thus ended our service.
Last week's case—also a criminal matter—was tried to a verdict. I don't want to reveal too many details, but I left with a few observations worth sharing and throwing out for discussion:
Several lawyers have told me they would like to serve on a jury. If called, it's an experience I highly recommend, despite lost time at work and other inconveniences that come along with it. Getting first-hand experience as a juror provides a unique perspective of the system we are sworn to support and a renewed appreciation for our respective roles in that system.

Fall Prescribed Fire Activities in the Bald Hills
Contact: Jim Wheeler, 707-465-7764
Redwood National and State Parks will conduct a series of prescribed burns this fall in the prairies and oak woodlands of the Bald Hills east of Orick. The prescribed fire season in the parks begins in late September or early October as weather conditions permit.
This year fire will be used as a management tool in eight specific burn units in the Bald Hills: Upper Dolason Prairie, Lower Dolason Prairie, Williams Ridge, Coyote Creek, Upper Lyons Ranch, Lower Lyons Ranch, Maneze Prairie, and South Boundary Prairie. All eight units combined, total 2,121 acres.
For thousands of years, Yurok, Tolowa, Chilula, and Hupa people
The parks' 2010 Fire Management Plan provides for the use of fire to restore natural and cultural processes, manage exotic plants and conifers encroaching into prairie and oak woodland plant communities, and to interpret and educate the public about the role of fire in the parks. The parks have successfully used prescribed fires to achieve these objectives since the early 1980's.
If you are in the parks over the next couple of months, there will likely be additional activity and equipment on and near Bald Hills Road. Smoke may linger on the roadways and traffic control may be
