DC Marijuana Decriminalization Law Takes Effect
A remarkable marijuana decriminalization law has gone into effect in Washington D.C. The new law will hopefully help to end D.C.'s excessive racial profiling drug-related (particularly marijuana) arrests.
The district has replaced jail time with a simple $25 fine for any person found to be in possession of an ounce or less of marijuana.
Grant Smith, with the Drug Policy Alliance put it best when he said, "We are hopeful that marijuana decriminalization will reduce excessive racial disparities in the enforcement of D.C's marijuana laws."
And they are definitely on the right track. The $25 fine is the lowest out of all the states in the US that have chosen to implement a fine in place of jail time for people caught with personal amounts of marijuana. They have also taken a massive stride by putting an end to the "stop-and-frisk" laws that unfairly targeted minorities, as well as prohibiting using the smell of marijuana as probable cause to search.
This is an exciting time in our nation's capital, where voters will have the opportunity to decide whether the District of Columbia will become the third state to legalize marijuana for recreational use this November.

Sky NZ to cover Zimbabwe Tour
25 Jul 2005
Andrew Marmont
Sky television has confirmed that it will cover all of New Zealand's matches in the up-and-coming Zimbabwe tour, live and ball-by-ball.
The schedule includes two tests and a one-day tri-series that also includes India.
Sky's director of communications Tony O'Brien reinfored the nature of the broadcaster, to simply provide a service for the viewers. He added that Sky are committed to following the Black Caps "where-ever they go and whenever possible."
No Sky staff or commentators will be sent over, so there were no possible security risks.
The first test starts on August 7 in Harare.

Decorative Paint Techniques: Wall Preparation Instructions
From our online exclusive Decorative Paint Techniques with Danielle Hirsch of Color Splash. These simple wall-preparation tips will help ensure professional results.
Materials and Tools:
TSP (optional)
liquid soap
spackling compound
5-in-1 tool or wide blade
latex caulk
220-grit sandpaper
latex primer
drop cloths (plastic and cloth) or sheets
blue painter's tape (with and without paper attached)
old paintbrushes or china bristle brushes
latex paint, eggshell sheen (Linen White) – Benjamin Moore
paint tray
paint roller and 3/8" roller cover
1. Remove all the accessories, artwork and furniture you can from the room. Move the rest to the middle, and cover it with plastic tarps for protection. Don't cover the floors with plastic as it can be very slippery. Use drop cloths or old sheets to protect them from splatters and drips.
2. There's a misconception that decorative paint finishes cover imperfections. While that's somewhat true, paint doesn't stick very well to dirty walls, so clean them with soap and water (or TSP) and rinse with water once done. Let dry overnight.
3. Fill holes with spackle using a five-in-one tool or wide blade and caulk where necessary. Sand dry spackle smooth, and prime each spot.
4. Removing outlet covers makes for a much neater paint job. Tape the screws to the cover, and tape over the outlet or light switch to keep paint from getting on them.
5. Use an old paintbrush or china bristle brush to dust baseboards, trim and crown molding before taping them off (use painter's tape with paper attached to protect the baseboards). Overlap seams by at least an inch to avoid seepage between pieces, and then seal the tape to the surface with your fingers or a rag.
6. Base-coat the walls. Let dry, and you're ready to start any painting project.
These simple tips will help ensure professional results, whether you're simply adding a new color to the wall or trying a cool decorative paint technique.

LIBERTY, Texas (AP) - A 13-year-old Texas girl who authorities say was repeatedly sexually assaulted by 20 men and boys during a series of attacks two years ago cried Wednesday as a video of one of the encounters was played for jurors in the first case to go to trial.
The girl, testifying under a pseudonym, told the jury that 20-year-old defendant Eric McGowen and another man charged in the case took her to a house in Cleveland, a small Southeast Texas town where all the defendants and the girl lived, in October 2010. The girl, who was an 11-year-old at the time, said she was brought into what she described as the "baby room" in the house, and that several men or boys took turns having sex with her, including McGowen.
McGowen, one of 14 adults accused of having sex with the girl during a nearly three-month span, is charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child and faces up to life in prison if convicted.
Prosecutors played a few minutes of a video in which they say a third man charged in the case was sexually assaulting the girl. The girl testified that McGowen was in the room at the time. The girl cried as the video was played and several jurors turned away from it.
"Did the guys just take turns with you?" prosecutor Joe Warren asked.
"Yes sir," the girl said.
Prosecutors say the girl was assaulted on at least five occasions from mid-September through early December of 2010.
Eight of the 20 defendants accused in the case have pleaded guilty, including all six juveniles. A gag order has prevented prosecutors and defense attorneys from commenting about the case.
Authorities began investigating that December after one of the girl's friends told a teacher he watched a cellphone video of her being raped in an abandoned trailer.
The case sparked outrage in Cleveland, a community of roughly 9,000 residents 45 miles northeast of Houston. Some residents drew widespread condemnation for suggesting the girl was partly responsible because they say she wore makeup, looked older than her age and wasn't properly supervised by her parents.
The case also has been complicated by a belief among many in the predominantly black neighborhood where several of the suspects live that the arrests were racially motivated. All of the suspects are black, while the girl is Hispanic.
The trial is being held in nearby Liberty, the county seat.
On Tuesday, McGowen was dealt a setback when state District Judge Mark Morefield ruled that prosecutors could admit as evidence a videotaped police interview of McGowen in which he admitted he and eight other men took turns having sex with the girl, sometimes two at a time, the Houston Chronicle reported.
In the video, which was played in court without the jury present, McGowen initially denied ever touching the girl, but he later broke down and told investigators she performed oral sex on him. He said one of the others used a beer bottle on her.
Some of those present for the alleged attack made videos or took cellphone photos, McGowen said. Reporters weren't allowed in the courtroom when that footage was played.
McGowen's lawyer, Matthew Poston, sought unsuccessfully to have McGowen's statements to investigators deemed inadmissible, arguing that police had an arrest warrant for his client but hadn't served it when he was brought to the station for questioning, the paper reported.
Warren pointed out that McGowen was advised of his rights on video before he was questioned.
One of the two adults who pleaded guilty in the case received a 15-year prison term and the other is awaiting sentencing. The six juveniles each received 7-year prison terms that were suspended, putting them on probation for that amount of time.
Most of the adult defendants in the case face charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child, while four face a charge of continuous sexual abuse of a child

Budget supermarket tops UK BrandIndex rankings
The latest YouGov BrandIndex rankings reveal a move towards low-cost brands in the UK with budget supermarket Aldi, and the MoneySavingExpert.com, both featuring in the Top 10 for the first time.
In YouGov's mid-year rankings have German discounters Aldi and Lidl in first and fourth place respectively. The appearance of these brands, along with British consumer finance information and discussion website MoneySavingExpert.com, signal that consumers in the UK continue to hold to money-saving behaviors resulting from the recent downturn.
Aldi and Lidl both rank higher than supermarkets Waitrose (ranked 6th) and Sainsbury's (ranked 10th) and Aldi, in first place, ahead of department store John Lewis.
"Consumers want to do their weekly shops affordably while losing nothing in terms of quality, and they believe these German brands do this," says BrandIndex director Sarah Murphy. "The other supermarkets in the top 10 may need to react and adapt to the challenge in order to maintain their place in the hearts and minds of consumers."
The Top 10
1. Aldi
2. John Lewis
3. BBC iPlayer
4. Lidl
5. Dyson (equal 5th with Waitrose)
6. Waitrose
7. BBC.co.uk

The new fall season: the ratings so far
On Monday, NBC won the night, with its lineup of Deal Or No Deal (9.6 million viewers), America's Toughest Jobs (6.5), and Dateline (6.2), but FOX won in the all-important 18 to 49 demographic with its lineup of the Sarah Connor Chronicles season premiere and a new episode of Prison Break. The Sarah Connor Chronicles grabbed 6.3 million viewers, while Prison Break did even better, with 6.5 million. CBS beat NBC in the 18-49 demo with their lineup of comedy repeats. ABC was fourth and The CW was fifth.
Privileged: Pilot (series premiere)
(S01E01) In the first five minutes of this show, viewers are treated to a visual definition of the phrase "fish out of water."
I generally don't like any comedy that starts out with the the main character losing everything and starting her life all over again. In a drama, it kind of works that the hero has to go from town to town searching for something she lost. In a comedy, it just means that we'll be spending the next half hour watching the hero say things like, "What did I get myself into?"
TV Squad: The Week Ahead
1. Fringe series premiere. It's from the guys behind Lost and the pilot cost $10 million. I think a few people are going to be talking about it. (Tuesday at 8 on FOX.)
2. Sarah Connor Chronicles season premiere. "Everyone thinks I'm here to terminate John Connor. I just want to watch his DirecTV..." (Tonight at 8 on FOX.)
3. Saturday Night Live season premiere. Who's going to play Sarah Palin? (Saturday at 11:30 on NBC.)
4. The Bonnie Hunt Show series premiere. Will her talk show truly be different? Can it succeed in the crowded talk show landscape? Is it here for the long-term like The Merv Griffin Show or will it be gone as quick as The Martin Short Show? (Starts today - check local listings.)
5. Psych summer finale. Sometimes it gives you a headache trying to figure out when these seasons start and end and when they start up again. (Friday at 10 on USA.)
6. Privileged. I'm beginning to overdose on the pretty/rich people TV show genre. (Tuesday at 9 on The CW.)
TV Squad: The Week Ahead
1. Season Premieres. Prison Break (tonight at 8pm on FOX), Gossip Girl (tonight at 8pm on The CW), One Tree Hill (tonight at 9pm on The CW), The Shield (Tuesday at 10pm on FX), Bones (Wednesday at 8pm on FOX), America's Next Top Model (Wednesday at 8pm on The CW), Top Design (Wednesday at 10pm on Bravo), Kitchen Nightmares (Thursday at 8 on FOX), Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader? (Friday at 8pm on FOX), Cops (Saturday at 8pm on FOX), Football Night in America and Sunday Night Football (Sunday at 7pm on NBC), and Entourage (Sunday at 10pm on HBO).
2. Series Premieres. Raising The Bar (tonight at 10pm on TNT), 90210 (Tuesday at 8pm on The CW), Privileged (Tuesday at 9pm on The CW), Sons of Anarchy (Wednesday at 10pm on FX), Hole in the Wall (Sunday at 8 on FOX), and True Blood (Sunday at 9pm on HBO.)
3. Republican National Convention. Important for the usual reasons, but also because Hurricane Gustav might affect what goes on at the convention and who shows up. (All week on the cable news channels and CSPAN and Monday-Thursday at 10pm on the networks.)
4. Stand Up To Cancer. ABC, CBS, and NBC (though not FOX or The CW) join forces on one night to raise money. (Friday at 8pm.)
5. Swingtown season finale. Or is that the series finale? (Friday at 10pm on CBS)
6. U.S. Open Finals. Will it be Federer vs. Nadal again? We know it won't be a Williams/Williams women's final because they're in the same half. (Women's Final: Saturday at 8pm on CBS. Men's Final: Sunday at 4pm - or whenever football gets over - on CBS.)
CW announces an early Fall premiere schedule
The idea behind the move is that you're already going to be hooked on Gossip Girl and Top Model by the time the other networks get around to premiering their fall shows, sometime around mid-to-late September. The season isn't the only thing the CW is starting early, however. Starting in November, they're also extending prime time, with original programming beginning at 6:30 on Sunday nights.
Check out CW's full premiere schedule after the jump.
CBS gives Gary a name change - VIDEO
... and I think it's a terrible idea. I have a small fascination with the titles of TV shows. They are never the total cause of a show's failure, but I do believe they can play a part. That's why my ears perked up this weekend when CBS ran a spot for Project Gary. At least, it looked like a spot for Project Gary, but my TV was now telling me it was for Gary Unmarried. What the heck is that?
It gave me a bit of deja vu. Suddenly I flashed back to September 2006 when I wrote a post about bad show titles, prompted by the name change of Let's Rob Mick Jagger. As you'll recall, that one became The Knights Of Prosperity, and things didn't work out so well. Not all name changes are bad. The CW changing Surviving The Filthy Rich to Privileged actually sounds like a good idea, but Gary Unmarried, no. I don't think the new name is going to sink them, but when combined with the fact that they didn't land in the safe harbor of the Monday night comedy block, I'm starting to get nervous for Gary.
Anne Archer taking over Privileged role
The drama begins with twentysomething Megan Smith (played by Joanna Garcia) unexpectedly getting hired by Laurel Limoges to tutor the woman's teen granddaughters. Laurel is a widow whose fortune comes from a successful cosmetics empire.

IEEE Editor Blasts $7B USD Laser Fusion Project as "Mother of All Boondoggles"
Jason Mick
October 9, 2012 11:29 AM

National lab project is unlikely to produce results and is being misrepresented, allegedly
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
(LLNL) -- located on the grounds of the
University of California, Berkley
(UC Berkley) -- is the center of a growing controversy regarding a $7B USD
laser fusion project
, dubbed the "National Ignition Facility" (NIF).
I. LLNL Says Project is Near Fusion, IEEE Editor Says "No Way"
The project -- launched 15 years ago in 1997 -- has yet to achieve "ignition"; the point at which the laser-confined fusion produces more energy than it consumes. And it carries a sticker price of $290M+ USD per year in operating costs.
But those issues didn't stop LLNL from releasing a cheerful press release,
Fifteen years of work by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's National Ignition Facility (NIF) team paid off on July 5 with a historic record-breaking laser shot. The NIF laser system of 192 beams delivered more than 500 trillion watts (terawatts or TW) of peak power and 1.85 megajoules (MJ) of ultraviolet laser light to its target. Five hundred terawatts is 1,000 times more power than the United States uses at any instant in time, and 1.85 megajoules of energy is about 100 times what any other laser regularly produces today.
The release was hardly coincidental. It came just months ago, in hopes of swaying Congress, which is presently deciding whether to sustain funding for the troubled project.
Pre-amplifiers are pictured pumping up the power to the LLNL's record-setting laser. But is all that power being wasted on pipe dreams? [Image Source: LLNL]
according to
IEEE Spectrum
editor Bill Sweet, a veteran of India's nuclear power development project, most physicists view laser-contained (aka. "inertial confinement") fusion ignition as a pipe dream. He argues that most agree that
magnetic confinement fusion
is far more likely to be realized, though still a difficult problem.
William Broad, chief nuclear issues reporter for
The New York Times
, agrees. He
that the
National Nuclear Security Administration
's project overseer, Donald L. Cook, has serious concerns. He quotes Mr. Cook as saying, that even with the latest power milestone considered, the project simply "has not worked", and that the NNSA is "going to settle into a serious investigation" of the NIF's sliding ignition deadline.
II. Protecting the Nuclear Stockpile? Maybe Not...
Mr. Sweet also takes issue with LLNL's other justification for the project -- that it provides a test-bed to simulate
nuclear weapons performance
, a key national security goal.
LLNL comments, "[The NIF] is the only facility with the potential to duplicate the actual phenomena that occur in the heart of a modern nuclear device -- a goal that is critical to sustaining confidence that a return to underground nuclear testing remains unnecessary."
But Mr. Sweet counters, "Richard Garwin, for decades the most highly regarded independent specialist on nuclear weaponry in the United States, told IEEE Spectrum six years ago that it would be 'a mistake to assume that NIF experiments are going to be directly relevant to weapons testing. The temperatures in the NIF chamber are much lower than they are in actual nuclear weapons, and the amounts of material being tested are much smaller.'"
He adds, "For decades the joke about magnetic confinement fusion--much the more plausible approach to harnessing the energy of the sun--is that the technology is always 20 years away. So when will inertial confinement fusion be delivering commercial electricity? That one is easy. Never."
Congress is debating whether to scrap the NIF. [Image Source: LLNL]
It sounds like there's some serious credibility question regarding the project's security and energy claims. That said, there might be some merit to the project, even if Mr. Sweet is at least partially right.
UC Berkley astronomy
Professor Dr. Raymond Jeanloz
, comments, "Already the most incredibly tightly controlled and most energetic laser in the world, it is remarkable that NIF has achieved the 500 TW milestone - quite a significant achievement. This breakthrough will give us incredible new opportunities in studying materials at extreme conditions."
Indeed, from a
pure science perspective
, the device is a pretty impressive accomplishment, even if it turns out its fusion goals are indeed pipe dreams. It could indeed yield some novel materials research, if it escapes this round of funding reviews. Ultimately the issue appears not so much that the super-laser lacks novelty, but rather that its critics argue that it is being misrepresented. For that reason, Mr. Sweet infers, the NIF is the "mother of all boondoggles".

RE: I'm fine with this
Fusion weapon design is no longer a high priority. All the fusion weapons in the stockpile have been retired. The only deployed warheads now are simple fission or boosted fission devices. There is no need or desire for high yield devices (>1 Mton) anymore, the focus is on precision delivery.
I'm also skeptical of any fusion research project achieving economical power production in the next 50 years. The problem is incredibly complex and difficult and there are a number of unsolved/unresolved issues like the first wall problem and tritium production. Even if solutions are found the capital cost of the equipment and operations and maintenance costs put fusion power costs way out of line with other much simpler and energy dense systems like nuclear power, let alone competing with natural gas.
On the other hand I am loathe to cut research funding. It's often attacked because the benefits are not immediately visible or quantifiable, yet looking back historically basic research always pays off. Keep an oversight on it, but don't kill it. Technological advances yields economic advantages, it keeps the economy on the leading edge.

McKenna blasted for attacking health-care law
Democrat Jay Inslee launched a new round of attacks Friday against Republican Attorney General Rob McKenna over his participation in a lawsuit seeking to overturn the national health-care law.
Seattle Times political reporter
In a preview of the partisan brawl voters can expect for the next 13 months, Democrat Jay Inslee launched a new round of attacks Friday against Republican Attorney General Rob McKenna over his participation in a lawsuit seeking to overturn the national health-care-reform law.
At a news conference in front of the attorney general's downtown Seattle office, Inslee accused McKenna, his rival in the 2012 governor's race, of putting partisan politics above the health-care needs of the state.
"The office of the attorney general belongs to the citizens of the state of Washington," said Inslee, the longtime congressman from Bainbridge Island.
But McKenna, he charged, has trampled the state's interests in siding with "right-wing" politicians from more conservative states like South Carolina.
Inslee cited a new filing by the 26 states challenging the health-care law, which asks the U.S. Supreme Court to invalidate the entire law, including protections for cancer survivors and senior citizens. "This is unconscionable. It is unacceptable. It is wrong," he said.
Since joining the lawsuit last year, McKenna repeatedly has said he objects only to portions of the law he deems unconstitutional, chiefly the requirement Americans purchase private health insurance. He issued a statement Friday reiterating that position.
"There are many parts of the law that may be beneficial to Americans and their families without violating their constitutional rights — and I believe those parts should be retained," McKenna said.
He noted the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals took exactly that position, striking down the individual mandate but leaving other parts of the law untouched.
McKenna said he has been overruled by his co-plaintiffs, who want the entire law nullified, but believes the Supreme Court will eventually side with him in striking down just the individual mandate.
Inslee said, "Mr. McKenna needs to be straight with the citizens of Washington state" and withdraw from the case, or file a separate lawsuit, if he truly disagrees with his co-plaintiffs.
McKenna rejected that idea as too expensive. "Filing a separate suit would require additional funds at a time when Washington has nothing to spare, and furthermore, it would not impact the outcome. This case is before the U.S. Supreme Court where it belongs," he said.
This is not a new line of attack for Democrats. Inslee previously has called on McKenna to drop the lawsuit over similar legal filings.
Democrats clearly have smelled blood on the issue, sensing its potential to erode McKenna's image as a moderate figure who can appeal to independent voters.
Inslee's barrage comes after recent polls showed him trailing the better-known McKenna in the 2012 gubernatorial race that already is shaping up as one of the nation's most competitive.
