In my last post, I argued that the Seventeenth Amendment should be repealed. Once upon a time, Americans from across the political spectrum could agree on at least one principle of good governance: federalism, or more generally, localized decision-making.
To put a fine point on it:
- Your state knows its own values and interests better than the national government does.
- Your county knows its own values and interests better than the state government does.
- Your city knows its own values and interests better than the county government does.
- Your neighborhood knows its own values and interests better than the city government does.
- Your household knows its own values and interests better than the neighborhood does.
- And you arguably know your own particular values and interests better than other members of your household do.
Depending on who's won lately, the people in power at higher levels of organization may approximately reflect your values and interests, but the further away they get, the less likely this is to be the case. Simply put, the more people you have to represent, and the further they are away from you, the harder it is to faithfully represent them all.
Even if your Congressman is a tremendously intelligent and virtuous man, what he doesn't know about his constituents' beliefs and circumstances could fill libraries.
So as a general rule, it makes sense that we should want matters to be decided at the most local level possible. If you have a personal problem, you have the greatest incentive to fix the problem, your values will determine what trade-offs you're comfortable with, and the matter probably shouldn't leave your household — or at worst, your peer groups. If it doesn't naturally spill over into other people's lives, they don't want you to make it their problem.
Largely because so much power has accrued at higher levels of government, people increasingly turn to the impersonal and ignorant forces of those higher levels to handle their problems. Today, the federal government has so much power, reaching down to the most local possible decisions, that people focus an inordinate amount of their attention and aspirations on who controls it and what they do with it. Everyone's fate is determined by whose collective hand controls the Biggest Lever.
I cannot stress enough how dangerous a development this is. Let's leave aside, for the moment, how centralized control and planning tend to double down on mistakes rather than correct them. They have much more insidious effects.
Making everything a national issue has poisoned the national debate. It is a significant cause of the Culture War (see Roe v Wade, or Defense of Marriage Act). It has contributed to making politics personal, and it's why so many people have become emotionally invested in the person of the President. Think about how much more common it has become for both parties to use the language and imagery of dictators to describe the president — usually when we disagree with him.
Bottom line: it is difficult to tolerate your neighbor's difference of opinion if his opinion controls your life. It has become too difficult to mind one's own business.
Let that marinate for a minute, and I'll move on to my suggestion for one solution. Continue reading
"This is our house now"
Remember the organization that refused to pay its own workers a "living wage" even while it agitated for higher minimums for other businesses? The same organization that has been the subject of several voting fraud investigations? And the same one to receive $2 Billion from the stimulus bill? Well, its now in the process of "peacefully" occupying homes that are in the process of foreclosure. That organization, of course, is ACORN:
A community organization breaks into a foreclosed home in what they are calling an act of civil disobedience.
The group wants to train homeowners facing eviction on peaceful ways they can remain in their homes.
"The mortgage went up $300 in one month," said Hanks, former homeowner.
She says the bank refused to modify her loan and foreclosed, kicking her out of the house in September.
The community group ACORN calls Hanks a victim of predatory lending.
"This is our house now," said Louis Beverly, ACORN.
And on Thursday afternoon, they literally broke the foreclosure padlock right off the front door and then broke into the house, letting Hanks back in for the first time in months.
"We are actually trespassing, and so this is a way of civil disobedience to try to stay into our house," said Beverly. "Legally it's wrong, but homesteading is the only means that she has left to stay into her house. And we feel as though this is the right thing to do at this particular time to save this family."
So even though they know it's "legally wrong" ACORN is going to go ahead and do it anyway? Maybe they could take some of the $2 Billion they received and help Ms. Hanks pay her mortgage or even renegotiate it. Presumably ACORN received the stimulus money to do something other than commit criminal acts. Didn't it?

Jack's Friends
Political Wire writes that tomorrow might be an interesting day in Congress, corruption-wise. It seems that some things have been going on around Congressman John Murtha (D-PA) which may not be entirely copacetic.
There's a potentially big story brewing on Capitol Hill… Apparently 104 members of Congress of both parties — 42 Republicans and 62 Democrats — secured earmarks for a lobbying firm linked to Rep. John Murtha (D-PA) in a single bill. The earmarks were inserted in a bill Murtha controlled as the defense appropriations subcommittee chairman.
It looks like business as usual, of course, until we learn that the company's executives and clients seem to be big, big political donors to Rep. Murtha.
So, I guess it is business as usual.
This Could Be Interesting
If they can get this passed, it might shake things up in the states rights arena:
This week the Oklahoma House of Representatives Rules Committee voted unanimously to support House Joint Resolution 1003 authored by state Rep. Charles Key. Key's proposal should now be headed to the floor of the House where I look forward to supporting it.
HJR 1003 seeks to reassert Oklahoma's sovereignty under the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and according to the resolution's language, serves as "Notice and Demand to the federal government, to cease and desist, effective immediately, mandates that are beyond the scope of these constitutionally delegated powers."
The 10th Amendment states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people."
Of course it will end up in court if passed, but I would love to see it upheld and it lead to more 10th amendment exceptions leading toward a reestablishment of more states rights.
Read the rest of the article – Rep. Jason Murphey makes a good case concerning levels of influence and representation. His point about those with money driving national politics is well taken.
Misremembering (Updated)
You've got to hand it to former IL Governor Rod Blagojevich. He's the anti-Midas. Everything he touches turns to…not gold, anyway. His magical touch has once again appeared, and this time the touchee is the senator he appointed to replace Barack Obama, Roland Burris. Apparently, Blagos Magic Touch™ caused Sen. Burris to, uh, misremember things.
U.S. Senator Roland Burris was asked to help raise campaign funds for Rod Blagojevich before the ousted Illinois governor named him to the seat left vacant by Barack Obama.
The governor's brother, Rob Blagojevich, asked Burris three times to help with fundraising, according to a Feb. 4 affidavit the senator filed with state Representative Barbara Flynn Currie, who chaired the Illinois House panel that impeached Blagojevich.
Burris told the House panel on Jan. 8 that the governor hadn't asked for money or favors in exchange for the Senate seat. In a letter accompanying the affidavit, Burris's lawyer said the senator hadn't been able to "fully respond" to questions.
He didn't mean to give contradictory testimony. But it was all so confusing and difficult.
"While Senator Burris testified truthfully and to the best of his recollection before the Impeachment Committee, given the fluid nature of the questions and answers between the Senator and the committee, and based upon our subsequent review of the hearing transcripts, the Senator was unable to fully respond to several matters that were included in questions during his testimony," lawyer Timothy Wright wrote in the Feb. 5 letter.
You see, he meant to tell the committee that Robert Blagojevich, the governor's brother had asked him to do some, uh, fund-raising to the tune of $10,000, on three separate occasions, but he just wasn't given a chance to testify to all these things fully. So, it's really the committee's fault, with their slipshod procedures and what not. That's why he told the committee that he had not been asked for any fund-raising at all.
You'd think that a former state Attorney General would be able to negotiate the shoals of testimony, but I guess not.
Still, he told the committee that he had no contact with anyone connected to the governor in association with the appointment. And he specifically denied having been asked to raise any money. That's a difference that would seem difficult to explain, but Sen. Burris is having a press conference today in which he will, presumably, clarify these matters to everyone's satisfaction.
The press conference has started. "I was never inconsistent in my statements".
He says he answered affirmative when asked if he'd had contact with Gov Blagojevich's cronies, and provided Lon Monk's name as an example, after which, the questioning moved on to another subject.
He says his testimonies are fully consistent.
The Chicago press corps is asking him some pretty tough questions. They don't seem to be buying his schtick.
This should be interesting to follow.
Buyer's Remorse? Have Obamacons Been Obamaconned?
I've spoken before about the political brilliance that running on nebulous catch phrases can accrue for the politician. Lay them out there, let the voting public decide what they mean to each of them and then ride the wave to elected office.
Obama did precisely that. And many who are marginally on the right, were fooled by that. Those who voted for him projected their "hope" for "change" on the blank screen he provided. But, as you'll see in this example, the reality of who Barack Obama really is may be clearing up, and it appears it is a huge disappointment to many of his more conservative/libertarian supporters.
Silicon Valley, where I live, is home to both political liberals and conservatives–more liberals of late, but not by a huge margin. The lopsidedness occurs on the freedom-statist divide. An overwhelming majority of Valley residents would place themselves on the freedom side and against the state. This should not surprise anyone. Silicon Valley is a land of immigrants, both foreign and from other American states. What draws people to Silicon Valley is the freedom to go out and commit industrial revolution and make the future.
Thus it was always odd that Silicon Valley voted for the most statist-inclined presidential candidate since FDR. Silicon Valley fell in love with Barack Obama. His youth and multicultural cool, along with the Web superiority of his presidential campaign, had Silicon Valley going googly for Obama.
In the eyes of Silicon Valley, Obama was like the Apple Macintosh. John McCain was like Windows.
Now comes the reckoning. Obama may be the coolest guy ever to hold the office of U.S. president. He may be the personification of an Apple Mac, iPod and iPhone. But this week Obama proved he is a big-state liberal, through and through.
My Silicon Valley friends who supported Obama are weirdly silent about this. I suspect they are in denial, still hoping for the closet libertarian Obama to emerge. Throughout the 2008 campaign, Silicon Valley Obama voters would tell me that Obama was really an economic centrist. Forget his liberal Senate record and Saul Alinsky-conditioned career as a community organizer. Forget the Chicago-style thug politics. That was in the past. Obama did what he had to do to rise. Once in the Oval Office, Obama will really govern more like John F. Kennedy, Bill Clinton or Tony Blair.
Say it enough times, and you can almost believe it. Well, sorry about that, you Obamacons. You just got thrown under the bus.
The $790 billion stimulus headed for Obama's desk is statist. It is also backward looking. Sure, there are some forward-looking initiatives, such as a few billion for broadband. But the bill is overwhelmed by "shovel-ready" projects aimed at school building improvement, road repair and so forth, and by bailouts to profligate state governments.
Very disturbingly, the bill has the stench of protectionism in it. This is antithetical to the interests of trade-happy Silicon Valley.
What is becoming clear is the Obama we can expect to govern is the big government statist liberal and not a "closet libertarian" as they hoped. Note the word. They fooled themselves into thinking that was actually a possibility. Yet as I pointed out below, this huge and unfocused spending plan being touted as a "stimulus" is nothing more than a massive expansion of government. It is also just the prelude for further intrusion, essentially a down-payment which paves the way for massive intrusion in health care and the energy sector.
For those who cast a jaundiced eye on the candidate and his blank slate campaign, none of this comes as a surprise. A creature of the most liberal political machines in America, a student of Saul Alinski's method and someone who consistently saw government as the answer and not the problem during his political rise, the Barack Obama the folks are suddenly discovering in Silicon Valley and other parts of America is precisely the guy we expected.
His "youth and multicultural cool" may have been part of sales job, but now it comes down to performance. Thus far his performance has been directed at expanding government. Two of the first three bills passed in his administration have massively increased government. And as I've noted, he promises even more.
In less than a month, Obama has signaled that there isn't a libertarian leaning bone in his body. The question remains as to how people, like those in Silicon Valley, managed to fool themselves enough to vote for a candidate who so obviously didn't fit their "hope". And are they, as this particular piece seems to indicate, feeling a little buyer's remorse?
Years, Not Months, To Recovery
Well yeah - now:
President Barack Obama on Friday warned that economic recovery in the United States "will be measured in years, not months" as he scored a major victory in his young presidency with the approval in Congress of a $787 billion (£542) bill to revive the economy.
How unfocused is this mess? Well here's a nice example:
Sec.1421 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act gives employers a tax incentive for hiring people (I hesitate to call them "workers," given it's not likely they've ever held a job for more than a couple days) who fit the following description. Betcha can't wait to hire this person!
DISCONNECTED YOUTH . –The term 'disconnected youth' means any individual who is certified by the designated local agency as having attained age 16 but not age 25 on the hiring date, as not regularly attending any secondary, technical, or post-secondary school during the 6-month period preceding the hiring date, as not regularly employed during such 6-month period, and as not readily employable by reason of lacking a sufficient number of basic skills.
I wonder if the Democrats who voted for the stimulus bill realize they just voted to give a tax break to McDonald's and WalMart.
Of course, they have no idea of who or what they've given breaks too (although I doubt McD's and Wal-Mart are eager to take on workers with no skills).
And the bill is rife with examples like the above. What is doesn't have at all are the things economists know work and work immediately – like marginal tax cuts.
Fact Check takes a look at the bill and finds problems with many of the basic promises made (and certainly takes issue with the claim there are "no earmarks" in the bill).
A couple of things Fact Check notes include the claim that digitizing health records and modernizing the electrical grid will be quickly done and provide great savings:
The president also says electronic health records will save billions of dollars. But the Congressional Budget Office says that even a decade of expected savings are unlikely to pay back the government what the government will spend on health IT.
The president said the bill will modernize the nation's electricity grid, reducing consumption by 2 percent to 4 percent. That's optimistic. Industry reports say that a new grid could reduce energy consumption by up to 4 percent, but not until 2030 and at a cost much greater than the stimulus bill would cover.
But what this does is get the proverbial government nose under the tent and set up more spending with future bills:
Mr Obama will also propose a budget to lay the groundwork for sweeping health care reform and present a major green energy bill. Mr Obama will also propose a budget to lay the groundwork for sweeping health care reform and present a major green energy bill.
The mistake of the paragraph above is the "groundwork" is being laid with this "stimulus" bill.
So, we've added 789 billion to the 750 billion TARP and the possible 1.2 trillion Geithner plan and are contemplating spending hundreds of billions more for "sweeping health care refomr and … a major green energy bill". And we haven't even mentioned the coming "AGW" spending debacle.
What generation are we up to now? Have we dragged my great, great, great grandchildren's generation into to this yet?
About That Caterpillar Story
President Obama has been waving a quote from Jim Owens, CEO of Caterpillar, "said that if Congress passes our plan, this company will be able to rehire some of the folks who were just laid off."
Asked if the stimulus package would be able to stop the 22,000 layoffs or not, Owens said, "I think realistically no. The truth is we're going to have more layoffs before we start hiring again"
"It is going to take some time before that stimulus bill" means re-hiring, he said.
Amateur hour continues.
Free Market Bashing
Since the inception of the current downturn, free market capitalism has taken quite the bashing. Supporters of significant government involvement in the economy deride the horrors of "unfettered capitalism" and a "free market run amuck." Frequently, deregulation of capital markets is singled out as the most dastardly culprit, to which Pres. Obama seems to be alluding when he blames "relying on the worn-out dogmas of the past," and "too little regulatory scrutiny." Yet, after the last eight years in which we witnessed Sarbanes-Oxley, No Child Left Behind, Medicare Part D, and numerous attempts to reign in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac shoved aside by legislators, evidence of unregulated economic activity being the source of our crisis seems rather scant.
The idea that "deregulation" was somehow responsible for the mortgage meltdown is a particularly shaky proposition. Shannon Love explains why:
Leftists have to answer a question: if greedy, irresponsible, unregulated etc. capitalism caused the housing bubble, why didn't we see a similar bubble in commercial real-estate markets which operate under even less regulation than the residential markets? Why does the politically neglected and unregulated commercial real-estate market exhibit much milder swings?
The differences between residential and commercial real estate provide the means to test the hypothesis that government intervention or the lack thereof caused the housing bubble and subsequent collapse of the financial system. We can compare the two markets because the same institutions ultimately make residential and commercial loans. They make loans in the same communities and regions. Changes in the economy affect both types of real estate at the same time and to the same rough degree. The only major difference between the two markets lies in the degree of government intervention.
After dispensing with some obvious questions about the comparison, Love highlights how the residential market was essentially turned into a Lemon's Market:
As Love points out, the commercial real estate market has no such mechanism muddying its waters, and information is comparatively less asymmetric. Without the government interference, commercial mortgage lenders let the potential for bad outcomes drive their decision making:
More than any other policy, the creation of Freddie Mac and Fanny May distorted the residential mortgage market in a way that the commercial market escaped. The FMs exist solely to induce lenders to make residential loans that the free market judged too risky. The FMs buy up residential mortgages from primary lenders and bundle them together in securities. They do so precisely in order to short-circuit the free-market feedback system that communicates to banks when the financial system as a whole has lent out as much money as it safely can. That feedback system worked like a governor on an engine. It kept the system from running away and lending more money than it could recoup, but also prevented people with poorer credit from getting loans.
Politicians who wanted the engine to run faster created the FMs to bypass the governor in order to get higher performance in the short run. Since the FMs would buy up almost any mortgage, lenders could make riskier and riskier loans without suffering any negative consequence. The FMs replaced the self-interested secondary-market buyers with people playing with government money and a mandate to induce more and more lending. Special dodgy accounting rules allowed the FMs to hide the risk behind the securitized mortgages they sold.
Tellingly, no such intervention occurred in commercial markets. The FMs' charters expressly prevented them from buying commercial mortgages. As a result, the commercial mortgage market functioned with a free-market governor. When lenders made too many risky loans, free-market secondary buyers stopped buying their mortgages and the system cooled down. As a result, commercial markets saw no runaway boom and subsequent colossal bust.
Although I think that laying the crisis solely at the feet of the residential mortgage market is overly simplistic (for example, what was up with the ratings agencies?), Love does point to a very apt comparison as to how government intervention in the market changes incentives and behavior. If you guarantee risks against bad loans, and subsidize the debtors, then more of such loans will be made. Remove such a guarantees and subsidies and market forces will severely punish improperly compensated risk taking.
The trade off, of course, is that free markets do not allow much opportunity for rent-seeking. Which is why Love's final lament is so true:
Sadly, experience suggests that mere empiricism has no place in political economics.
That's because empiricism does not buy votes.
Details, Promises And Other "Stimulus" Package Fun Stuff
As the details of the compromise stimulus package come out, most will find plenty to not like.
For instance, those stimulative tax cuts for 95% of Americans:
Q: What are some of the tax breaks in the bill?
A: It includes Obama's signature "Making Work Pay" tax credit for 95 percent of workers, though negotiators agreed to trim the credit to $400 a year instead of $500 — or $800 for married couples, cut from Obama's original proposal of $1,000. It would begin showing up in most workers' paychecks in June as an extra $13 a week in take-home pay, falling to about $8 a week next January.
$13 bucks a week for 6 months, down to $8 bucks a week by January. $338 in '09, and, if it stays in place for all of '10, $416.
Wow. 800 billion of your dollars and in the next year and a half you're going to see $754 of it. Go make that down payment on the new house or car now!
Now, here's the rope-a-dope:
Q: How will infrastructure spending affect jobs?
A: The Federal Highway Administration has estimated that every $1 billion the federal government spends on infrastructure projects translates to 35,000 jobs. Collins put the total infrastructure spending — including highways, mass transit, environmental cleanups and broadband facilities — at $150 billion. Do the math and that translates into more than 5 million jobs, based on the highway administration's assumptions.
Senate leaders have offered their own estimate — they said Wednesday that the total stimulus package will sustain some 3.5 million jobs.
Most of that work will go to people who already have jobs. And those who are hired will be hired on a temporary basis. When the revenue stream for that job ends, so will the temporary jobs.
And one other thing to keep in mind – these people are estimating based on nothing more than some assumptions they've decided look rosy and fit their narrative. They have no freakin' idea how many jobs, if any, their spending will bring.
Q: How long would it take for highway projects to begin?
A: Lawmakers say most of the projects could be up and running within 90 days, although it could take somewhat more time in northern states with longer winters. Highway construction groups have estimated that there are thousands of projects that could be started within that 90 days.
Here's a dirty little secret about this answer – projects that are 90 days from beginning have most likely already been funded and those who are going to work on them have been hired.
All the rest of the projects in the bill will have to go through the normal years long bidding process that is required by government. So "shovel ready" does not necessarily mean an infusion of new cash or jobs.
Q: Does the bill include federal aid to the states?
A: Yes. It includes major contributions to states to help with their budget shortfalls and assure the viability of Medicaid and education programs.
Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, the moderate Republican who helped broker the deal, said the spending includes about $90 billion in increased federal matches to states to help pay for Medicaid, along with a $54 billion "fiscal stabilization" fund that states could use to build and repair schools and improve facilities at institutions of higher learning.
This bill is the "State Fiscal Mismanagement Bailout Bill" which rewards states for budget busting.
Tell me, in life, what is one of the major means of changing behavior?
Pain. No pain, nothing learned. Be it emotional, physical or financial pain, unless you suffer it, you have no reason to change your behavior. Given this bill, profligate state governments have no reason to change their spendthrift ways.
BTW, none of that spending will stimulate anything but more government.
Q: What are some of the other main focuses of the bill?
A: Here are some highlights:
Education: The package has some $11.5 billion to support the IDEA program for special education. There's another $10 billion for a federal program to help low-income students.
Energy: The package includes funds to modernize the electrical grid — in part by incorporating renewable energy resources — and to make federal buildings more energy efficient and help low-income households weatherize their homes.
Health: The plan includes subsidies to allow people who are laid off to purchase health insurance through the federal COBRA plan. There is also money to support hospitals seeking to modernize health information technology.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure section of the package includes funds for building and repairing highways and bridges, expanding transit systems, upgrading airports and rail systems and building and repairing federal buildings — with the focus on making them more energy efficient. Funds are available for clean water projects, cleanup of environmental waste areas and nuclear waste cleanups.
Nothing listed here is stimulative. Nothing. This is all the pork that everyone has denied is in the bill. This is the left's shopping list of the last 40 years rolled into one big raid on your wallet.
And what about the engine of productivity, the creator of jobs and wealth? Not much at all:
From auto dealers to the home-building industry, big business appears to be the biggest loser in the final economic stimulus plan being pieced together Wednesday on Capitol Hill.
Negotiators from the House and Senate sliced billions of dollars in tax incentives for businesses and slashed huge tax breaks for consumers that were strongly backed by industry lobbyists.
Many of the business tax provisions were added to the stimulus legislation in the Senate in an effort to attract Republican votes. President Barack Obama wants bipartisan support for the plan and was dealt a setback when no Republicans voted for the House version of the plan two weeks ago.
But when only three Republican senators voted for the Senate version of the bill Tuesday, Democrats slashed the business tax proposals in an effort to bring the total cost of the bill under $789 billion.
That's right, Democratic spite and their propensity toward government as the solution have mostly driven tax breaks for business, the one sector that can, in fact, create real jobs that produce wealth, out of the bill.
Tthe Democrats like to use the term "trickle down" derisively, but as Karl Rove notes, you're about to see their version of it. The difference is the money will "trickle down" through the government filter. Any guess as to how much will actually reach down to where it is needed?
Well, don't bet that whopping $754 bucks you'll be seeing over the next year and a half that it will do any good. Instead you might consider buying gold with it, since my guess is it isn't going to be worth $754 when the Democrats get done with screwing around with the economy.

Sorry, Cosmo: One More Resort Will Bring Ice Skating Back To The Strip
This Friday will see the return of two ice rinks to the Strip, but only two. Venetian, the original purveyors of traditional winter fun on Las Vegas Boulevard, decided to hang up its skates this season, however, Cosmopolitan and Caesars Palace will still be in the game.
Today, Caesars officials announced the return of their self-described Caesars Chalet which will once again be located Stripside. Both the Chalet and Cosmo's Ice Rink (a transformed Boulevard Pool) will debut November 21 while Caesars' attraction will run slightly longer closing January 11 instead of January 4 like its competitor.

How Sushi Roku Could Rock Your Next Meal
This VegasChatter writer spent way too much of her life not liking asparagus. I've been making up for lost time and finding interesting preparations in local restaurants. One of my current faves is the Filet Mignon-Wrapped Asparagus with soy mirin sauce ($18, above) at Sushi Roku in the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. The perfectly cooked asparagus is wrapped in insanely tender, thinly-sliced filet and served on a hot stone to keep it nice and toasty. The server pours the thick and savory soy mirin sauce when it is delivered to create a fragrant sizzle. Sushi Roku definitely won extra points for presentation!
The restaurant is celebrating its 10th anniversary with an "Ultimate Top 10" menu for a limited time. Select menu items like the asparagus appetizer and other top sellers like Yellowtail Diced Chilies with olive oil and garlic ponzu, the Katana Roll with spicy tuna and shrimp tempura topped with tuna and yellowtail and Chilean Sea Bass with Truffle Miso Glaze are only $10.

The Strip's New Border Grill Could Be Open As Soon As...
Rumor has it the new Border Grill location inside Forum Shops at Caesars Palace could be opening as early as this afternoon for dinner service. They're just waiting on the liquor license to be finalized. They've been doing mock service since last week in preparation for what a Caesars' concierge said would be a "fall opening."
Taking over the former space of P.J. Clarke's, the new location will have a bar area as well as a patio extending into the area in front of the restaurant. Sources closer to the action say all the restaurant should be open for lunch service tomorrow at the latest, if things go according to plan.

Will There Be An Omnia Beach Club, Too?
Omnia, the new mega-nightclub headed to Caesars Palace early next year, is said to mean "all," but will that mean a party pool, too?
VegasChatter Facebook fan Taylor R. found a trademark filed by parent company Hakkasan for the name, Omnia Beach Club. A check also found a sister trademark for Omnia Day Club. But, while this week's news reports have highlighted the rooftop garden, nary a word has been uttered about a day life experience.

While It May Sound Like A Sleep Aid, Omnia Aims To Keep You Up All Night
Is it just us or does the new club sound like a sleep aid? Omnia. Saying it just makes us want to take a snooze, not dance with booze. Not really the thoughts that should pop into mind when thinking about a high-energy nightclub. What was once home to one of the original mega clubs, Pure, will now be revamped by Hakkasan Group to become Omnia at Caesars Palace. The word supposedly means "all" though we're just hearing Ambien competitor.
The 75,000 square-foot space used to have celebrity appearances as its bread and butter but now will return as a performance-focused space much like recent additions to the scene, Light at Mandalay Bay and Life at SLS Las Vegas. Luckily, the venue will still utilize Pure's famous patio space. It will be turned into a rooftop garden. In addition to the large main area downstairs, the venue will also feature a lounge and mezzanine area. Because the old footprint just wasn't big enough, Omnia will also spill over into the former Caesars poker room area, giving it plenty of room for performance space.

Nameless, Still Under Construction And Not Opening Til 2015, Caesars' New Club Still Hiring
Hakkasan North will be here before we know it.
Okay, that's not really the new name of the club destined to replace PURE at Caesars Palace (that we know of), but it's now our designated placeholder. While still nameless (or, at the very least, still unannounced), the mega-club will be a sister to Hakkasan at MGM Grand. An extensive renovation of the space includes an expansion into the resort's old poker room.

Man Sues After Taking One Of Rod's Balls To The Face
We've been there before and can definitely confirm it's nigh impossible to ignore Rod's balls.
When Rod Stewart struts about on stage, he's been known to let his freak flag fly and show fans how adept he is with his balls. Wait, what? We're talking about his soccer balls, people! When he first started his Caesars Palace residency, the headliner we all think is sexy kicked his shows up a notch by filling the Colosseum with his balls. Even we hoped to reach out and grab one. None came close to our seats, though, despite Stewart's balls-to-the-
wall balcony high kicks. But, Page Six reports one fan was caught off guard and was smashed in the face so hard it broke his nose.

Someone?Anyone? The guy wrote me again looking for an answer. Thanks
Hey guys,
I was delighted to see that one of my files was selected to be the free file of the month. First I want to thank a lot the AudioJungle staff for the great opportunity they gave me and for the good job they are doing.
Now…immediately after the file appeared on the first page, I got an email from somebody who downloaded it. He asked if there is any license .pdf file that he should receive along with the file and what kind of license he receives with the free file. Can he use it only for non profit projects? Or is he allowed to use it as he pleases? Hope I was clear enough with the question.
Once again, big thanks for the AJ team and best of luck with the sales for everyone!
Maybe this nomination will bring some spark to the sales:http://audiojungle.net/item/valse-macabre/3500913
Thank you!
Hey Robert! Was doing weddings while in the university…good money, good food but sometimes sooo boring to play all those evergreens or folklor music… By the way…next week I start a 2 weeks tour in Poland, somewhere in the area of Lublin
Hey Robert! Was doing weddings while in the university…good money, good food but sometimes sooo boring to play all those evergreens or folklor music… By the way…next week I start a 2 weeks tour in Poland, somewhere in the area of Lublin
@Polarus_Sound : Man I'm living in Göttingen, which is not that far from Hannover…so it wouldn't really be that hard to come and hear ya
@Alien_Piglet : True words…and your story reminds me of some guy which did some extraordinary performances for one of these ''Got Talent'' shows…he never had any lessons and he had such a beautiful natural voice, unharmed by any school of music. After the show, he signed with some labels and they made him take lessons…result? he only got worse, trying to do what didn't quite represent him and his pure natural gift
As for me, I am mostly a performer…but while being on stage, or playing in different projects, I get a lot of inspiration for future compositions while improvising or I get a huge amount of ideas from other musicians with which I collaborate. Not to mention I ''steal'' the style of playing of instruments that I don't master and when it comes to working with sound libraries, I try to get as much as possible to the real feel of a certain instrument
Thanks for your thoughts guys! Really interesting to hear your thoughts
For some months now sales went down and I notice I have so much less visibility, so maybe this might help…I'm not complaining though, because I'm not doing actually so much to change the odds Thanks once again!
Cool stuff you've got there Olex! Nice piano skills and I love the sound of Viter! Too bad I can't really write the name of the song I like the most
Hey guys…I really wonder how many of you are also live music performers and how is that working for you? Would be great if you can share some of your work. Might be that we could even find nice collaboration between each other.
Would be great if you can share also for example festivals where bands can apply, or tour opportunities.
What I can share with you now for starters…
There is a cultural organization which is gathering around 20 artists in various disciplines for a tour across Germany,Austria and Italy…somewhere in autumn. They are looking for some instrument players which know how to put up a show…creative, nice improvisation skills, explosive. The show has theater,dance,music,acrobatic elements. I could write in private more details.
So…hope I'm not wrong by posting this here and hope the thread will have some success and it will be the start of some nice collaboration between musicians here.
All the best! Justin
Edit: maybe the right subject for this thread would be…AJ music performers – collaboration opportunities….or something similar…but i can't change it now
Thanks a lot for the prize! And big congratulations to all participants. It was really great to have a glimpse into people's ''weapons'' of music. I hope many more contests like this will come soon!

Indeed not dull now, & later I grow clematis on mine - but probably if its wasn't such a wonderful early shrub for its flowers, nectar etc., I probably would overlook it regarding it's summer appearance. I've not had anyone nest in mine, but several birds do so in other parts of the garden, so I must not be greedy. Maybe a bit near the feeders for happy nesting.
No garden passion is, everything is wonderful in its own right and time - wish I had more space for the collections I'd love to have, but as it is everything overgrows everything else - & more things will somehow get here and planted somewhere. Do you think anyone would notice if thee grassy area (can't call it a lawn under the trades description rules!), got a bit smaller? Again!!!
Hear hear re the lovely surprise in a corner you had forgotten about! Glad to hear someone voted for the pinks, though I still can't really like them -some of the very deep ones OK, but blue then white would get my vote.
I brought in some winter flowering bush honeysuckle twigs as the hyacinths were about over, they perfume the whole house too - not silly strong but gorgeous.
Hmm, bought some more hyacinths in a pot which were looking lonely, never could resist a plant offer -they'll do fine ………….
Pick a couple of twigs for a small vase, they will perfume the house beautifully - makes the keeping of an otherwise rather dull shrub worth its space.
We did it on our allotment, the only things we bought were 4 good posts for the corners, the rest was all from skip dives or dumped stuff - got some clear (ish) corrugated plastic too so made an almost greenhouse too!
Oregano has, delightfully, become a weed in this garden. I had several different kinds in pots, they have all self seeded everywhere, and thrive with no attention whatsoever. Mind, this garden drains pretty well, which is a good thing this year.
We are particularly fond of the blue ones as well - interesting that no-one seems to find the pink the best - they were all that were left in the shops this week! I expect someone will now say they love the pinks the best - well, someone should.
I find that it sometimes takes a year or so for them to recover from being forced, but I now have hyacinths in all sorts of places where I have tucked them in after indoor flowering. Seems awful to throw them out and quite unnecessary too. It is true that they do flower slightly smaller, but the perfume is just as good, and once they get massed together as they years go on, they look great anyway, smaller or not.
I pull out just about every forgetmenot I can see at the end of the flowering season, which leaves me enough to be gorgeous but not totally overrun!!
The darker reddish hellebores have started to push up buds, more than I expected i am happy to say, while the white ones have been open for a while - the pale one with the spotted inside is fully open, lots of flowers and beautiful.
Amazing how much flowering there is going on out there, tho' from indoors it doesn't look as if anything is happening at all except snowdrops and polyanthus - but it isn't so. Little irises, the reticula group, and the first hepatica nobilis shining out at me from a patch of greenery where it must have self seeded - more power to it and long may it spread.
Although this has been, and still is, a horrid, wet and windy day, the hedge is alive with small birds chasing each other about - mostly blue tits and sparrow, plus a pair of robins, so in spite of it all, they think Spring may be on its way!
Snowdrops are gorgeous, daffs. got their buds, loads of bulbs poking up - especially the ones I can't remember planting there. Some aconite's, a plant I have tried for many years to get established, and this year it looks as if they might really give it a go - hooray.
Some years ago a crocus bulb fell from my hand and rolled under the step at the at the front of our house, no soil there, just a tiled step - it has flowered every year since, and this year has 4 flower stems showing deeply purple there. No idea where it gets its nourishment, but it is slowly spreading - great.

To Reach the wall:
Park on the South side of Hwy20, at the East end of "town".
Walk along hwy 20 for ~150yrds to a trail on the left, which leads to the wall in about 30 seconds.

Thanks to the years of effort of the Access Fund, the Washington Climbers Coalition and the great National Park Service staff, Newhalem is once again open for new routes!!
The above parties in conjunction with the Vertical World climbing team, the Wilderness Society and the Washington Trails Association just built a new trail to a new mega cliff just down the road. Walk down and check it out and bring your new-routing mojo! There is a decade's worth of potential in this gorge and years of new routes on the new cliff alone!
Also, the late, great badass and all-around great friend Ryan Triplett put up a bunch of new-school hard classics at the main Newhalem cliff ("Newhalem West"). Check 'em out! I'll try to post route info...

|Someone else might know better, but I believe Ryan's Wall is south or southeast facing while the other larger wall is south to southwest facing. I think one could potentially climb here year round in the right conditions. Ryan's Wall seems to both dry quickly after and stay dry during most rainstorms. Most of it is in the shade in early afternoon as well.

Heron Resources Intrigue: Board Faces Spill
Dual-listed Heron Resources has been forced to call a "board spill" meeting, at which all directors apart from the managing director must stand for re-election.
Dual-listed Heron Resources has been forced to call a "board spill" meeting, at which all directors apart from the managing director must stand for re-election.
The news was no doubt welcome for Founder and Executive Chairman Robert Friedland, who's said in the past that he is bullish on zinc and copper.
Three-month zinc on the London Metal Exchange on Monday reached $2,268 per metric ton and was headed for its biggest gain since October 29. The metal's long-term prospects remain compelling.
Trevali released its production results for the third quarter, raising its production guidance for the year.
Foran Mining reached an agreement to extinguish Teck Resources' back-in rights on its Bigstone, Balsam and Hanson properties.
Silver Bull announced in a corporate update that it will shift its focus to the zinc side of its flagship silver-zinc Sierra Mojada project.
InZinc Mining, Pasinex Resources and Cypress Development have all seen share price increases of over 100 percent since the beginning of 2014. Here's a look at what they've been up to this year.
The last of Heron's two major cornerstone investors has now exited, freeing the company up to progress its major strategic change of direction from nickel to zinc.
Canada's Cypress Development is taking advantage of zinc's price rally by advancing its Gunman zinc-silver project in Nevada. Already this summer it's completed a Phase 1 drill program and moved on to Phase 2.
Analysts at Raymond James and Dundee Capital Markets had good things to say about Trevali Mining following its Q2 results release last Thursday.
Get our independent commentary on zinc trends and companies delivered to your inbox.
The long-term outlook for Zinc is positive and the worlds largest Zinc producers are confident that the next few years will see a return to robust demand growth. The main growth markets for the metal are the BRIC countries, but demand from Western economies is expected to rise as well. The automotive and aerospace industries are seen as the main catalysts for new growth as manufacturers seek to reduce fuel consumption by creating lighter weight vehicles.
Zinc Investing News is one of the leading providers of news and education on the Zinc market. We pride ourselves on delivering quality, independent news to our investor audience.

Emmy veterans take home the trophies
The 66th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards looked an awful lot like a repeat — or, at least there were an awful lot of repeat winners.
"Modern Family" won its fifth consecutive Emmy (tying "Frasier") as best comedy series, and "Breaking Bad" won its second consecutive Emmy as best drama to cap off a night in which it quickly became clear that the best way to win an Emmy was to have already won one. Or more than one.
" 'Modern Family' has been a big, beautiful dream for the last five years," said executive producer Steve Levitan, "and we thank you for not waking us up."
It was a huge night for "Breaking Bad," which ended its run this year and went out on a win streak that included writer Moira Walley-Beckett's second Emmy; supporting actress Anna Gunn's second; supporting actor Aaron Paul's third; and lead actor Bryan Cranston's fourth (tying Dennis Franz).
Cranston beat out Matthew McConaughey ("True Detective"), who was trying to win an Oscar and an Emmy in the same year. "Even I thought about voting for Matthew," Cranston said.
It was a big night for one first-time winner, PBS' "Sherlock." Benedict Cumberbatch won as best actor; Martin Freeman as best supporting actor; and Steven Moffat for writing in a movie, miniseries or special.
Add the four awards "Sherlock" won in the creative arts categories, and it was the biggest Emmy haul of 2014.
The evening got under way with a win by (adopted) hometown boy Ty Burrell — the co-owner of Salt Lake City's Bar X and Beer Bar — his second Emmy as best supporting actor in "Modern Family."
The least believable statement of the night came from "Amazing Race" executive producer Bertram van Munster, "I can assure you, we didn't expect this at all," on the occasion of the show's 10th win as best reality/competition series. "Race" was joined by:
• Jim Parsons, who won his fourth best actor/comedy award for "Big Bang Theory," tying Michael J. Fox, Kelsey Grammer and Carroll O'Connor in the category.
• Julianna Margulies ("The Good Wife"), who won as best actress in a drama — her third.
• Jessica Lange ("American Horror Story: Coven"), who won for best actress in a miniseries movie — her third.
• Kathy Bates, who won her second Emmy for her supporting role in the miniseries "American Horror Story: Coven" — beating out fellow Oscar winner Julia Roberts. (Bates' first Emmy was as a guest actress on "Two and a Half Men.")
• Sarah Silverman, who won for best writing in a variety special ("We Are Miracles") — her second Emmy.
• "The Colbert Report," which won as best variety/comedy series — the show's second win this year (including writing) and sixth overall.
• Allison Janney, who won for best supporting actress in a comedy ("Mom") a week after winning a guest actress/drama Emmy for "Masters of Sex" — adding to the four she won for "The West Wing" between 2000-2004.
• Louis C.K. ("Louie"), who won his sixth Emmy, all for writing, but was unable to break through in the best actor-in-a-comedy category.
Not all the winners were repeats, of course. Some categories don't lend themselves to repeat winners.

Getting patches upstream is the way to go on that. Do you have a pointer to the email discussion about the passive domain sample storage? Passive means that the domain is not taking the samples and storing them in the domain, right? One of the things that I have noticed on my previous experiments with the xenoprof is there are quite a few steps to setup xenoprof. The user has to do setup on each domain. Ideally it would be nice to be able to just do one setup in the host domain and then have that information be propagated to the guest domains. Similarly the analysis would be nice to get one over all picture of all the domains. Clusters have a similar issue; one doesn't want to manage machine individually. However clusters may have different hardware for the various nodes in the cluster. With xen the only difference could be the software. -Will

1931 Essex Super Six Model E news, pictures, specifications, and information
|Boattail Speedabout
Coachwork: Murray
Chassis Num: 1267966
|Sold for $66,000 at 2011 Gooding & Company.
The Essex vehicles were small and affordable vehicles. In 1919, an Essex accomplished a 50-hour, 3,037.4 mile endurance test in Cincinnati, Ohio at an average speed of 60.75 miles per hour. The early Essex automobiles also claimed many hill climb records, with one of the more impressive victories coming at the hands of Glen Shultz who won the 1923 Pikes Peak Hill Climb in a specially prepared Essex race car.
Sales of the Essex remained strong through the 1920s and into the very early 1930s before sales (like most of the automotive market) began a drastic decline. For 1932, a redesigned Essex was introduced and was named the Essex-Terraplane, a play on the word aeroplane. By 1933, the Essex was no more and the car carried on as the Terraplane.
The 1931 Essex
For 1931, Essex offered the Super Six Model E and available in elven different body styles. Pricing was fair and competitive, ranging from $725 - $900. Power was from a six-cylinder, 175.2 cubic-inch engine capable of producing 60 horsepower. It had a three speed sliding gearbox and Bendix mechanical brakes at all four corners. Styling was similar to the previous year's models, with a few subtle changes. Up front there was a new bronze chromium plated grid for the radiator shell. The curved tie bar for the headlights and fenders was replaced with a straight tie bar. The double row of hood louvers were now a single set that were much larger. New bumpers, hubcaps, running boards and exterior hardware were also visible on the 1931 models.
Inside, the Essex models were outfitted with Bedford cord, flat fabrics or velours. Essex sedan models also receive as much as five more inches of leg room.
Super Six Boattail Speedabout
This 1931 Boattail Speedabout is an original example of which only a few are known to have survived. It is a relatively late-production example and wears coachwork courtesy of Murray, rather than the early Biddle and Smart bodies.
This vehicle, with its many cosmetic and mechanical improvements introduced for the 1931 model year, was once part of the Harrah automobile collection in Reno, Nevada. When the collection was dispersed in 1984, the Essex Speedabout was sold to an Oregon resident who kept it for a number of years before having it fully restored to a high, show-quality standard. When the work was completed, it was finished in its current two-tone color scheme of beige and brown with contrasting green accents. It is equipped with the full array of options, including wire wheels, side-mounted spares, twin taillights and whitewall tires.
In the mid-2000s, it was acquired by the current owner.
In 2011, at the Pebble Beach, CA auction presented by Gooding & Company, the car was estimated to sell for $70,000-$90,000 and offered without reserve. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $66,000inclusive of buyer's premium.

|AUSTIN, Tex. (June 8, 2014) - It was a hard-fought race for Rockstar Energy Drink driver Tanner Foust this weekend at X Games in Austin, the second round of the Global Rallycross Championship. The four-time gold medalist, who has earned more X Games rally medals than any other competitor, was favored for a return to the podium in Austin.

US women to play exhibition at Canada on June 2
CHICAGO (AP) — The U.S. women's soccer team will play an exhibition against Canada at Toronto on June 2. This will be the first time these teams have met since last year's Olympic semifinal when the Americans won 4-3 in overtime on Alex Morgan's stoppage-time goal.
Under new coach Tom Sermanni, the Americans started 2013 with 4-1 and 3-1 victories over Scotland this month.
The U.S. plays Iceland (March 6), China (March 8) and Sweden (March 11) at the annual Algarve Cup in Portugal, then has an exhibition at Germany on April 5.
The match against Canada was announced Tuesday.

40 jobs to be created in B&M expansion
Last updated at 11:41, Thursday, 07 August 2014
FORTY jobs will be created with the expansion of B&M stores, in Whitehaven.
The firm's current premises at Bridges Retail Park are being doubled in size as they move into the space previously occupied by Lidl.
The larger premises, which total over 21,000sq ft, will enable B&M to offer a broader variety of both branded and own label products including groceries and toiletries, says their spokesman Charles Du Pré, head of communications.
Besides its non-food lines in toys, home, soft furnishings and furniture it will also introduce wallpaper, paint and DIY ranges for the first time.
The B&M Home Store is planning to re-open on Saturday, August 23, at 9am and is currently searching for a local hero or charity representative to perform the official opening.
"Heroes or charities can be nominated by friends, family or work colleagues and could be someone who makes life better for people in the area, works hard for a particular cause or is renowned for their charity work." said Mr Du Pré.
Lisa Hough, B&M's manager at the Bridges retail park store, said: "We wanted a true VIP to officially open our new store and what better way than to ask customers to nominate those who make a real difference to people's lives in and around Whitehaven.
"We're not judging by age or the type of support, we just want someone who goes that extra mile and who we can give something back to for a change".
The winner will receive £250 worth of vouchers to spend in store, as a thank you. Nominations are being accepted up to Friday, August 15, and can be e-mailed to email@example.com or posted to Whitehaven Bridges Local Hero Search, B&M Retail Ltd, Dakota Drive, Estuary Commerce Park, Speke, Liverpool, L24 8RJ.
B&M, which has a second store, its first in Whitehaven, at Swingpump Lane, also has a presence at Wigton, Penrith and Carlisle. It was formed in 1978 with its first outlet in Blackpool and is now one of the leading variety retailers in the UK with 380 stores employing over 17,000 staff.
Lidl vacated its Whitehaven premises on the retail park back in January this year, after 12 years of trading, saying the company was committed to acquiring a new site in the town to accommodate a new, larger store.
Since then the German supermarket chain, which has 600 UK stores, has said it intends to build its largest UK store in Maryport, creating 30 jobs. It would be on land (owned by Allerdale Council) off Curzon Street, and a planning application will be submitted in September, following community consultation. A rugby pitch and two football pitches on the proposed development site would be repositioned.

Have your say
I would prefer to see another take away shop im getting sick of seeing budget stores.
This town really needs more charity shops along with take away shops to keep up with popular demand.

Elected unopposedNo Congress candidate put up
LUCKNOW: Jaya Bachchan and Amir Alam Khan of the Samajwadi Party have been declared elected unopposed in the by-elections to the Rajya Sabha from Uttar Pradesh after the last date of withdrawal of nominations expired on Thursday.
The by-elections were caused by Ms. Bachchan's disqualification for holding an office for profit and the resignation of Anil Dhirubhai Ambani, industrialist. While Ms. Bachchan, whose name appears as Bachchan Jaya Amitabh in the nomination papers, was renominated and retained her seat, Mr. Khan filled the vacancy caused by Mr. Ambani's resignation.
Ms. Bachchan makes her re-entry to the Rajya Sabha after being disqualified from its membership in March this year following the President upholding the Election Commission's notice to disqualify her for holding an office of profit. Both Ms. Bachchan and Mr. Khan will remain Rajya Sabha MPs till June 2010.

Mount Laurel, NJ
The Paws Farm Nature Center is owned and operated by the Township of Mount Laurel, making it an affordable public resource for animal lovers in town. The center is geared toward youthful visitors and offers classes and activities for kids ages 3-8. Animal residents of this nature park range from the cuddly to the scaly, with birds, reptiles, fish, and mammals all on display. If your kid is an animal lover, you may want to consider hosting his or her birthday here or even getting a Paws Farm membership for regular visits and free nature classes.
Alice Paul, a leading American Suffragist in the early 1900s, is one of Mount Laurel's most famous and influential past residents. Though her education and work would take her to many different parts of the country, she was born in 1885 at her family home of Paulsdale in Mount Laurel, and she died not too far away in a neighboring New Jersey town. Today, Paulsdale is a museum dedicated to Alice's work as an early pioneer in the women's rights movement. The Alice Paul Institute owns and operates this museum, which has been restored to the condition it was in when she lived there.
Summer in New Jersey can get very hot and humid, which provides a stark contrast to its potentially harsh winters. Luckily for Mount Laurel residents who love water parks, CoCo Key is an all-indoor park with tons of slides, rides, and attractions that are available all year round. Though the park's summer hours are more extensive than the winter hours, it is pretty amazing that there is a water park in New Jersey that is open at all during the wintertime considering how cold and snowy it can get during that season.

TIMBUKTU, Mali — On the morning French commandos parachuted onto the sand just north of this storied city and ended 10 months of Islamic rule, Hawi Traore folded up her veil. On the next day, she wore heels. On the day after, she put on her sparkly earrings, got her hair braided and tried her mother's perfume.
Finally on Thursday, the 12-year-old girl dared to dance in the streets, celebrating freedom from the draconian rules that were imposed by the al-Qaida-linked militants on this desert capital for much of the past year.
Four days since French special forces liberated Timbuktu, there is a growing sense of freedom — particularly among women. The speed with which women have claimed back their freedom underscores one of the advantages the French hold against an elusive enemy on unforgiving terrain: The population here has long practiced a moderate Islam rather than the extremism of the militants.
Although Timbuktu has long been a code word for the ends of the earth, until recently its women led a relatively modern existence, where they were not required to be covered and could socialize with men. That changed abruptly last year, when radical Islamists seized control of the northern half of Mali in the chaos after a coup in the distant capital.
When they first arrived, Hawi, a tall, fast-talking, sassy preteen girl, was just learning how to put on makeup. She learned the hard way to wear the toungou, the word for veil in the Songhai language. Her slender arm still bears the scar left by the whip of the Islamic police, her punishment for not properly covering up.
Her once-free life became increasingly restricted, as did that of her sisters and friends.
The Islamists showed no mercy, beating everyone from pregnant women to grandmothers to 9-year-old girls who weren't fully covered. Even talking to a brother on the front stoop of a woman's own home could get her in trouble.
Smoking, drinking and music were banned. So was playing soccer. The worst punishment was reserved for love outside the rules, and an unmarried couple who had two children out of wedlock was stoned to death in one northern Malian town.
Fatouma Traore lives on Street No. 415 in Timbuktu, the road that runs directly in front of the building where the Islamic Tribunal operated in what was once a luxury, boutique hotel. A leaflet left in the dirt in the courtyard set out eight rules for how women should wear the veil.
Rule No. 1 is that the fabric should cover the entire body. Rule No. 2 is that it can't be transparent. Rule No. 3 is that it needs to be colorless. And finally, Rule No. 8 states that a woman should not perfume herself after putting it on.
The French military launched an intervention to oust the Islamists from power in northern Mali on Jan. 11, and rapidly forced their retreat from the major cities in less than three weeks.
The French arrived here before midnight on Monday in a platoon of 600 soldiers, accompanied by 200 Malian troops. They included paratroopers flown in from a base in Corsica, who landed in the north under the cover of darkness, as well as a convoy of 150 armored vehicles which simultaneously reached the town's western perimeter, according to a French military spokeswoman. The Islamists were no longer there.

Rams DT has been on shelf with high ankle sprain Brad Biggs
St. Louis Rams first-round draft pick Michael Brockers hopes to make his regular-season debut Sunday at the Edward Jones Dome against the Seattle Seahawks.
Brockers has been sidelined with a high ankle sprain since the team's preseason finale, missing the first three-regular season games. Although the Rams have officially listed the defensive tackle as questionable, he expects to be in action.
"We'll give it a go," Brockers said, according to Kathleen Nelson of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "I will be playing Sunday. The ankle's holding up pretty well, so I expect to play a heavy amount in Sunday's game."
Rams coach Jeff Fisher said Brockers has a "chance." The Rams have been excited about Brockers, who they picked up after trading down in the first round. He has an opportunity to anchor a line that already has some nice players on the edge in Chris Long and Robert Quinn.

Cal Poly Pomona has created a new feeding trial for JustFoodForDogs, which the petfood company says prioritizes the quality of life of the dogs involved in the feeding trail as well as still provides real-world data from the volunteer pets and pet owners.
Cal Poly Pomona's Animal and Veterinary Sciences Department helped design the method to satisfy Association of American Feed Control Officials' requirements. The study utilized volunteer dogs living normal canine lives in their own homes throughout the testing. Participants included 27 dogs of various sizes and breeds between 1 and 5 years old, who were studied throughout the 182-day feeding trial and tested three of the company's petfood recipes. AAFCO requires testing of four blood parameters, but this trial tested a complete blood cell count and chemistry panel looking at more than 25 blood parameters.
"The field method we developed takes significantly more effort than the standard industry approach, but to JustFoodForDogs it was absolutely worth it. The dogs are happy and the data is scientifically valid," said Dr. Broc Sandelin, chair of the Animal and Veterinary Sciences Department.
