Sensor count reduction for high-performance induction motor (IM) drives is considered. A novel strategy to compute the three phase currents, based on a single current sensor and an adaptive observer, is proposed. The observer estimates the motor state variables, allowing then implementing an IM field-oriented controlled (FOC) drive with closed speed loop based only on DC-link measurements. To demonstrate the practical feasibility of this proposal, representative experimental results, obtained with a FOC experimental prototype, are presented. The FOC prototype showed results similar to those from a conventional FOC drive with individual phase current sensors. The sensor count reduction achieved represents a significant cost diminution in the implementation of low-power high-performance drives

"All Eggs Shall Be Cooked"
It doesn't take a Le Cordon Bleu chef to know you ought to cook eggs before serving them, especially in a nursing home. Yet that rule is part of a countless list of regulations governing Kansas nursing homes--rules so detailed and specific that workers are forced to devote most of their time to compliance, rather than actually improving the level of care.
This is just one of many examples of regulatory absurdity discussed in The Rule of Nobody, and it's one that caught the attention of Free-Range Kids founder Lenore Skenazy in an article for the Huffington Post:
This kind of ridiculous regulating pops up in pretty much every public sector. In fact, in my neighborhood, RIGHT NOW, workers outside the apartment building next door are tearing down the beautiful, wrought iron fence that has been there for 60+ years, because the city finally noticed (and cared) that it is 7 inches higher than allowed by local law.
What happens when we pile on laws like this that are excruciatingly precise, but don't make life any better for anyone?
A better approach? Write laws and regulations that set principles and goals, and give people the flexibility to achieve those goals efficiently and sensibly.

Laws Should Have Expiration Dates
The message of The Rule of Nobody--that the accumulation of law and regulation over decades has made government impossible to run--is spreading. On Monday, the Boston Globe's Jeff Jacoby wrote that laws, like credit cards, should have expiration dates:
In the real world, things don't last forever. The carton of milk in your refrigerator has an expiration date. So does the credit card in your wallet. Cars need periodic tune-ups. Medical prescriptions have to be reauthorized.
Government should operate on the same assumption. Every law should expire automatically after a fixed period of time — say, 12 or 15 years — unless lawmakers expressly vote to reauthorize it. Likewise every legislatively created agency and program. Members of Congress and state legislatures should be required to revisit their handiwork on a regular basis, reviewing it for relevance, efficacy, and soundness, and allowing measures that have outlived their usefulness to lapse.
Philip Howard has proposed a 28th Amendment to do just that:
Amendment XXVIII: No statute or regulation requiring expenditure of public or private resources (other than to oversee legal compliance or enforcement), shall be in force for longer than fifteen years. Congress may reenact such a law only after finding that it continues to serve the public interest and does not unnecessarily conflict or interfere with other priorities. Before making its determinations, Congress shall consider recommendations by an independent commission on whether and how to amend any such statute or program. At any time, Congress by majority vote of each house shall have the power to invalidate any regulation promulgated under a statutory delegation, without presentment to the President.

Recommended Reading: Sen. Angus King's Testimony on Regulatory Reform
The national debate around regulation is too often restricted to one dimension: Is it over-reaching or overly lax?
In truth, the broad problem with regulation at all levels of government has less to do with its content than its method. As a rule, U.S. regulations are increasingly minute, narrow, and numerous. One consequence of this approach is that regulatory approval often balloons to absurd proportions, leading to hopelessly delayed projects and enormous expense for no good reason. We've seen this time and again with environmental review for infrastructure projects. Projects with minimal or negligible environmental impact can be caught up in years of investigation, reporting, and litigation, stifling progress and making long-term planning very difficult.
Fortunately, this issue is finally getting some attention in Congress. Senator Angus King (I-ME) recently summed up the idea in testimony at a hearing with the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs:
Regulation is an essential function of our government and is critical to protecting the things our society values, like the environment, public health, and safety. However, I am opposed to senseless regulation--those rules that do not serve a greater public purpose and are burdensome or impede our ability to compete with the rest of the world.
King told the Subcommittee on the Efficiency and Effectiveness of Federal Programs and the Federal Workforce that our current regulatory permitting process is hopelessly protracted and inefficient. Fixing the process is imperative for the sake of American infrastructure and the economy--and, as King says, it doesn't have to come at the expense of environmental protection:
It bears mentioning that tough standards and a timely process need not be at odds with one another. When I was governor of Maine, I used to say that I wanted Maine to have the toughest environmental standards in the country coupled with the country's most predictable, user-friendly process. A project's desirability should be based upon its merits, and its viability should not be determined by its opponents' ability to delay the regulatory process.
The answer is not to weaken regulatory protection, but to clarify and simplify the process. Doing so would promote construction that is both responsible and timely, and it would increase our ability to repair our failing national infrastructure. King's solution:
Can we find a way to permit major projects at a cost that is not extraordinarily prohibitive and within a reasonable time frame without trampling on the legitimate rights of the people impacted? I believe we can. One of the first steps we could take is to address the issue of serial permitting--i.e., the phenomenon of uncoordinated and successive permitting approvals for a single project. When I was governor of Maine, we addressed this problem by creating a system of "one-stop regulatory shopping," which put the responsibility of issuing the final permit within one agency and required all the other agencies to coordinate and consult with the lead agency.
I believe a similar process could work at the federal level, and two members of this subcommittee, Senator Portman and Senator McCaskill, have introduced a bill that takes this very approach. The bill--S. 1397, the Federal Permitting Improvement Act of 2013--would institute some important changes to federal permitting procedures, and I am proud to announce my co-sponsorship of the bill today.

Simone Weil on Rules
From L'Enracinement by Simone Weil (1949), translated by Arthur Wills:
Rules should be sufficiently sensible and sufficiently straightforward so that any one who so desires and is blessed with average powers of application may be able to understand, on the one hand the useful ends they serve, and on the other hand the actual necessities which have brought about their institution. They should emanate from a source of authority which is not looked upon as strange or hostile, but loved as something belonging to those placed under its direction. They should be sufficiently stable, general and limited in number for the mind to be able to grasp them once and for all, and not find itself brought up against them every time a decision has to be made.
Common Good advocates regulatory overhaul not to weaken regulatory protections but to simplify, clarify, and streamline the way we achieve them. Check out our issue brief on regulatory simplification here.Comment ›

Philip Howard on "The Daily Show"
Philip appeared as Jon Stewart's guest on Monday, discussing his book The Rule of Nobody. Here's what Philip had to say about legal accretion:
The Constitution is an open framework of goals and principles. It's 10 pages long. The Volcker Rule is 980 pages. Law is supposed to be a framework within which people take responsibility. And then you hold—in a democratic process—people responsible for whether they succeed in running the agency properly, or whatever. But we've taken away the authority that goes with the responsibility, with literally tens—hundreds—of millions of words of law, so that it's become this vast vat of legal quicksand. It's thicker every year. It's a progressive disease. It's worse now than it was 20 years ago. It will be worse next year.

Recommended Reading: "Up With Authority" by Victor Lee Austin
by Benjamin Miller
Philip Howard's new book, The Rule of Nobody, reveals the consequences of entrusting governance to broken bureaucracies and accumulated, often outdated law. A concern that often arises in this discussion is with granting officials authority to use their judgment. An individual can make a bad call, the thinking goes, in contrast to the security of a systematic, (ostensibly) impartial legal and regulatory system.
It's a concern worth considering. In The Rule of Nobody, Philip argues that if you simply look at the real, scandalous consequences of the heavily bureaucratic approach we've accepted (from exploding budgets to banned lemonade stands), it's clear real people are needed to exercise judgment and instill common sense. There's a positive angle as well: individuals with the authority to use good judgment can take pride in their work and strive to solve problems from the federal level down to individual communities.
Victor Lee Austin is a priest (and a personal friend), and his book Up With Authority concerns, in part, church hierarchy and doctrine. But Austin's project—as suggested by the book's subtitle, "Why we need authority to flourish as human beings"—at its heart concerns this positive side of authority as it appears, or should appear, across not only religious communities, but also society and politics.
It's unhealthy, Austin argues, to see authority as a necessary evil—an unavoidable cost of maintaining order that ought to be minimized. Rather, authority enables us as individuals and groups to do things that would otherwise be impossible. Consider a symphony orchestra:
Decisions must be made about phrasings, about tempo, about volume and blend of various instruments. On each of these questions there are many wrong answers, but there is also seldom just one right answer. So decisions must be made. And they must be made amongst alternatives which have equal reason. So someone, an authority, in this case the conductor, has to determine how the music will be played. And the musicians must accept the conductor's determinations and play as she directs, or else there will be no music.
Does a musician lose his freedom when he plays as his conductor directs? …Without the authority of a conductor, that symphony never could be heard.
Now of course a conductor will sometimes make a bad decision. A conductor might even at times exhibit malice or bias, and there must be avenues of recourse for musicians who are unjustly treated. But these risks don't mean that an orchestra would be better off without a conductor.
Teachers, regulators, and business owners may also make bad decisions from time to time. For decades we've tried to minimize such mistakes by writing increasingly specific laws and regulations. Thus over time we've severely constrained the ability of people in positions of authority to exercise discretion. But the antidote to bad decisions isn't to prevent decisions from being made at all.
As Austin puts it: "[T]he reality of evil in the form of fallible authority is not an argument against authority." Yes, people in positions of authority will sometimes make mistakes, errors in judgment, even willful wrongs. But that doesn't mean we would be better off without people—even fallible people—in positions of authority. We entrust individuals with authority not because they are perfect but because we believe they can make necessary decisions.
Up With Authority is available on Amazon and elsewhere.Comment ›

Do you have a personal experience of bureaucracy run amok? Absurd regulatory or permitting processes? Are you a teacher or government official whose hands have been tied by nonsensical rules? Did an outdated law or crazy lawsuit get in the way of something you were trying to do?
Philip Howard has been speaking around the country about cleaning out dead laws and fixing broken government. Every story that comes out about Americans struggling to use common sense in the face of idiotic laws and rules helps strengthen our case.

What Broke Washington
This weekend the Washington Post published an op-ed by Philip K. Howard which presents a case for combating government dysfunction. The diagnosis:
I think we have it backward. Polarization is mainly a symptom, not the cause, of paralysis. Democracy has become powerless. Politicians who are impotent have no way to compete except by pointing fingers.
The main culprit, ironically, is law. Generations of lawmakers and regulators have written so much law, in such detail, that officials are barred from acting sensibly. Like sediment in the harbor, law has piled up until it is almost impossible—indeed, illegal—for officials to make choices needed for government to get where it needs to go.
And the solution?
Human responsibility should be restored as the operating philosophy for democracy. Only real people, not bureaucratic rules, can make adjustments to balance a budget, or be fair, or change priorities. Democracy cannot function unless identifiable people can make public choices and be accountable for the results.

A Bridge Too Far: The President Visits the Tappan Zee Bridge
by James R. Maxeiner
At 16,014 feet long, the Tappan Zee Bridge that crosses the Hudson River at Tarrytown is the longest bridge in New York and among the fifty longest bridges in the United States. Although only sixty years old, the bridge has long been in need of replacement. President Obama's May 14 visit to the Bridge gives us hope for infrastructure approval reform in America even as it reminds us of how far the United States has to go and of how long we must bear the costs of our failures to coordinate approvals.
President Obama touted that through his personal intervention, approval of the replacement bridge had been fast-tracked and that the time required for approval had been cut to one-and-one-half years from the "normal" three to five years (or, he might have added, from the not uncommon decade or longer required for some infrastructure projects, such as the Bayonne Bridge). Fast-tracking does not mean slipshod review; it does mean coordinating and reducing required approvals.
The President announced plans to apply the same strategy to eleven other major infrastructure projects. But that's not good enough. We need coordinated approval to be the norm for all projects. Three to five years should be the exception, not the rule. Moreover, we need a strategy that coordinates infrastructure projects, period. Why?
NPR this week reported why the Tappan Zee Bridge is so long—crossing the Hudson at one of the river's widest points. Why not at a narrower point? Because where the river narrows, the bridge—and its lucrative tolls—would have fallen within the jurisdiction of the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey. Governor Thomas Dewey wanted those tolls instead to raise revenue for highway construction. So the bridge was built, at great expense, at one of the widest points on the Hudson. And this political decision from sixty years ago predetermined where the new bridge is today being built: where the old bridge is, at the river's widest point.
Governor Dewey's political decision reminds us that while laws can anticipate the future, they cannot do so perfectly, and need to be updated periodically. In 1921 New York, New Jersey, and federal laws created the Port Authority to facilitate cooperation between the two states, but they did not fully anticipate the growth of the New York City area over the next thirty years. In 1956, regional highway infrastructure cooperation became national policy when Congress created the Interstate Highway System. But the "bridge too far" had been finished the year before, too late to be moved.
President Obama'a visit reminds us that we should not wait another sixty years for a general coordination of infrastructure approvals.Comment ›

SummaryAdd a Summary
Alexandra, Lady Morley, an alluring widow, is on holiday to escape her creditors and devise a plan to reverse her fortunes. Distracted by the arrival of Phineas "Finn" Burke, a brilliant inventor with a shocking past, she despairs of ever getting what she needs…until they kiss.
Finn, naïve to the female species and intent only on perfecting his "horseless carriage" engine for an exhibition in Rome, never dreamed he'd meet a woman like Alexandra, who is as maddening as she is comely. Finn longs to make Alexandra his wife, but his own vows stand in the way…unless Alexandra can sacrifice everything she knows to realize her deepest desires.

History of Modern - Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
- Band Name: Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
- Record Label: Blue Noise
- Release Date: Sep 28, 2010
- Band members: Martin Cooper, Malcolm Holmes, Paul Humphreys, Andrew G. McCluskey
- Summary: The first album in 14 years for the Liverpool, England, musicians who are best known in the US for the song If You Leave from the movie Pretty in Pink.
- Record Label: Blue Noise
- Genre(s): Pop/Rock, Adult Alternative Pop/Rock, Alternative Dance, Synth Pop
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 5 out of 12
Mixed: 7 out of 12
Negative: 0 out of 12
Truth be told, finding a clunker on the second half is a tall order and that simple fact is what makes History of Modern so rewarding.
This 11th album refines their sound and gives it a modern productive tweak. [Oct 2010, p.112]
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark's first album in 14 years--and first in 24 to feature the lineup that recorded the bulk of their hits--meticulously returns to the ostensibly perky sound and pensive sensibility of the Merseyside quartet's early-to-mid-'80s heyday.
They set the table for a full-on renaissance, then stopped a couple courses short. With judicious programming, the best two-thirds of History of Modern will give you just enough of that old OMD magic to warrant a purchase. The problem is, it's also just enough to make the rest of the album break your heart.
It's a return to form only in the sense that it finds OMD, several decades on, still struggling with its identity.
Dec 21, 2010The results are mixed. The first four tracks are the most rewarding.
Like Simple Minds, it's not too late for OMD to stride all the way back to greatness. But this album isn't even a stumble in the right direction, and the clock, as always, is ticking.

I have some powered Sony desktop speakers that are a step up in price bracket from yours (though I haven't used them at all in the past 3 months), almost universally the headphone jack on these external speakers is cheap and noisy... It should be a little better directly plugged into the X58, but even so the amps built into soundcards aren't very clear and also have to contend with even more interference from other electrical parts.
I like the Omni because it's basically an external soundcard. It offloads the sound processing load from the CPU (more resources for other stuff), has a better DAC and Amp than what's built into any motherboard, and easily allows you to connect to upgraded amps or DACs later. It will also be the hub to let you connect headphones and up to a 5.1 speaker setup, and switch outputs in software without having to unplug anything. I like the virtual headphone processing very much.
A hi-fi amp will still improve on the sound, but my K712 sounded very good plugged directly into my Omni.

Glass tops, whether they're part of a coffee table's design or on a desk or dining table, always make that piece look interesting. A transparent glass top makes the base stand out more, even if it's very simple in design. Glass tops also give the whole room a more transparent, clear and spacious look because they go almost unnoticed.
A small office or workspace could definitely use a desk with a glass top. This one, for example, has a very light and delicate design.{found on dwellingsbydevore}.

Indonesia's heaviest-ever newborn drew curious crowds to an Indonesian hospital where the boy named Akbar - or the Great in Arabic - came into the world at a record 19.2 pounds (8.7 kilograms).
Akbar Risuddin was born to a diabetic mother in a 40-minute caesarean delivery that was complicated because of his unusual weight and size, Dr. Binsar Sitanggang said.
"I'm very happy that my baby and his mother are in good health," father Muhammad Hasanuddin said. "I hope I can afford to feed the baby enough, because he needs more milk than other babies."
Crowds pushed to get a peek of the extraordinary Indonesian boy, who measured nearly 24 inches (62 centimetres) when he was born on Monday, at the Abdul Manan hospital in the northern town of Kisaran.
"This is fantastic," said Dewi Miranti, a mother from a nearby village as she peered through a window with around a hundred others. "This is the biggest baby I have ever seen. He looks very well and is cute."
The baby's extreme weight was the result of excessive glucose from his mother during pregnancy, Dr. Sitanggang said.
"He is greedy and has a strong appetite, nursing almost non-stop," the doctor said.
The boy was the third child of Hasanuddin, 50, and mother Ani, 41. His two "little" brothers weighed 11.6 pounds (5.3 kilograms) and 9.9 pounds (4.5 kilograms) at birth.
The former Indonesian record holder was a 14.7-pound (6.7 kilogram) baby boy born on the outskirts of the capital, Jakarta, in 2007.
Guinness World Records cites the heaviest baby as being born in the U.S. in 1879, weighing 23.75 pounds (10.4 kilograms). However, it died 11 hours after birth. The book also cites 22.5-pound (10.2-kilogram) babies born in Italy in 1955 and in South Africa in 1982.

On Monday, Slater-Price pointed to the charter and state law, saying the board was held accountable to the public. "That's the way it should be," she said.
Added Supervisor Greg Cox: "Supervisors know the county very well and are familiar with the communities of interest in the region. The community leaders appointed to the committee also know the region very well. The public will have a significant voice in what will be a truly transparent redistricting process."
This matter came before the board late last year with no opposition, Supervisor Dianne Jacob said. The process includes ample opportunities for public input and comment, and it plays out in open session before the board, she said.
Supervisors each will choose and ratify a nominee to the advisory committee on Feb. 9.

Strange word, huh? It's a movie reference. The movie is Chariots of Fire. Remember the scene where Eric Liddle is handing out the trophies at an athletic meet, and the speaker offers to get him some "kit" so that he will run in the main event?
"Kit", in this case, meant running clothes: the right equipment. The right equipment is vital, even for beginners. A good, supportive pair of shoes for walking, for example. A swimsuit that fits and does not bind for water aerobics or lap swimming. A good supportive sports bra for us ladies!
All these things are ways of preparing ourselves for an active life, and for some of us, buying new "kit" is a reward and incentive in our programs. A cute new outfit, shiny new workout shoes, another piece of equipment - bands, or weights, or a balance board... can all keep my interest alive.
Is there any "kit" that you use as reward / incentive to keep your fitness program alive.
Oh, you think - there she goes again! Neither noun nor verb. "just" can be an adjective or an adverb. Don't you love quirky little words with multiple meanings? "Just" is just such a word.
I'm going to highlight two of those meanings. One of them is the sense of the minimal nature of whatever it is modifying. That's the adverb meaning:
"Just ten minutes of activity..."
"Just do it!"
"Just wait a minute here!"
"Just one cookie, thank you..."
All these little, precise, "just one thing" decisions add up to a healthier life-style.
But then there is the adjective side: right or fair; equitable; impartial
Think about what is "just" or fair treatment of your body, mind and spirit. What is right? Most of us know. Many of us bend over backwards to treat others fairly. Question for today: are you treating yourself in a "just" manner?
Speaking of "just"... there are just 99 days left in 2010! My aim is to make the most of them.
We all need inspiration. No matter what phase in life's journey, we need inspiration to get up in the morning, to keep going when the going gets tough, and to keep going after set backs AND after successes!
So I keep on finding goals and things to work for. I keep on reading success stories and blogs, participate in my spark teams and play those alphabet and number games in posts. And I share with others because it becomes an inspiration. My spark friends inspire me a lot.
Last night I put a stake in the ground: I sent in my registration fee for my target 5K.
For those of you who might not be regular followers of my blog, my son's unit was among those that took casualties last November, in the shooting at Fort Hood. When I found out they were going to do a memorial run to honor the fallen, I knew it was the perfect inspiration for me. My couch to 5K program that I keep writing status about was to get serious about being in shape for this event.
I still don't know how I'm going to pull off the logistics and fit it into the budget (the travel part), but signing up for it adds to my determination and makes it more likely to really happen. See the Spark philosophy? Do one thing!
What inspires YOU to keep on keepin' on?
Honesty - most especially honesty with myself - is an important part of this journey. Because the journey / lifestyle is all about self-discovery and self-improvement. If I'm not honest in my assessment of what I'm doing and why, I won't make a whole lot of progress.
This does NOT mean that I beat up on myself or make harsh judgments when I slip. Honesty simply to me means keeping track and being aware. Mindfulness of what's going on in my head and my heart... why is this candy bar in my hand? OH... I'm not really hungry, I'm worried... is there anything else I could do, rather than scarf this down without thinking?
Being self-aware doesn't happen overnight or by magic. It takes a conscious effort for me. Although I have to say it is becoming more habitual. Taking time to be aware... a simple process like a breathing exercise can bring me back from the brink: breathe in to a count of four. Hold for a count of four. Exhale to a count of eight. Do that a couple of times, doesn't take much time... and brings me right back to the present... to where I can identify what's going on in that head and heart, and make a better choice.
Here's to self-honesty, that frees us to decide about our actions more consciously!
This is where I was on Saturday late afternoon, in the 93 degree (F) heat of Dallas, TX, in a hotel pool. This is the first time I've been swimming in... three years? I swam 14 laps and my shoulders said, "You haven't used us this way in a while!" So I got out and lazed beside the pool and chatted with another attendee. And I have to say that coming home to the 52 degree (F) autumn evening in Nebraska on Sunday... well, it kind of felt good, but there's a part of me that would like to stay with the warmth and the swimming pools.
The current background photo is the view from my hotel room when I first checked in. If you look closely, you'll see that the rainbow is a double one... the outer arc is fainter, but it's there. Rainbows are promises. And it was a weekend full of promises kept.
The comic relief was on the way back: the pilot got the passengers to load quickly and efficiently by means of competition. Our flight was from Dallas to Chicago. The flight loading next to us was also going to Chicago... it was the charter flight of the Chicago Bears, who had, apparently, just defeated the Dallas Cowboys! Our goal, said the pilot, was to beat that charter flight into Chicago. I never found out whether we did, but we got people into their seats and away from the gate first.
Fun side trips: Addison, TX, Oktoberfest, Saturday afternoon.
Ate like crap, but in reasonable portion sizes: smoked turkey leg (but stopped after what I hoped was a reasonable portion), German potato salad, and sauerkraut.
Allergies killed me on Sunday and are still giving me after effects today. But all in all, a wonderful weekend, and I'm gentling myself back into my program.

Colombians say scandal hurts nation's image but blame U.S. men
Many in Cartagena fear the scandal may further tarnish Colombia's image, because it may add another stain to Colombia's reputation as a drug-trafficking and criminal hub.
McClatchy Newspapers
CARTAGENA, Colombia —
Surrounded by wall-mounted flat screens playing continuous deafening music videos, male patrons at La Dolce Vita nightclub face rows of young women in high heels and miniskirts sitting or standing by the bar, some swaying to the salsa songs.
The women generally do not approach the men sitting at tables in the middle of the dark room, but occasionally one of the men stands up and asks one or more of the women to join him.
Then they order drinks and discuss business. Vicky, a 20-year-old clad in a mini-dress with large polka dots, offered sex for $120 per hour at a man's hotel.
Hundreds of similar offers occur every night at dozens of nightclubs in this international resort on Colombia's Caribbean coast 409 miles northwest of Bogotá, the capital. But La Dolce Vita, at First Street and Adm. Brion Avenue, sits one block from the Hotel Caribe, the epicenter of a mushrooming prostitution scandal involving 12 U.S. Secret Service agents and 11 members of the U.S. armed forces.
The military men and the Secret Service agents were part of advance teams to prepare President Obama's visit to attend the Summit of the Americas April 14.
Dania Suarez, a 24-year-old single mother, helped trigger the scandal when she complained loudly in a hallway of the Hotel Caribe early on April 12 that a Secret Service agent staying there failed to pay her $800 sex fee. He offered only $30.
While Vicky and other women said over the weekend that the Americans did not pick up women at La Dolce Vita, they defended Suarez because prostitution is a legal way to make a living for young women who work day jobs in offices and stores or attend school.
Two percent of young female college students in Cartagena moonlight as escorts and prostitutes, according to a study from the University of San Buenaventura quoted in Friday's edition of the Cartagena newspaper El Universal, which also published pictures of Suarez in a bikini.
Though many here fear the scandal may further tarnish Colombia's image, one unifying strand in the local fallout of the scandal was that many Cartageneros, as local residents are known in Spanish, view the agent as the villain for trying to stiff a young woman who is only seeking to feed her 9-year-old son.
"This is all legal," said Vicky, the only one of the women at La Dolce Vita willing to talk at length. "This was the fault of the man who didn't pay."
Her view was echoed by more than a dozen other residents interviewed on the streets as Cartagena continues to reel from the scandal.
"The women were just trying to make a living," said Melissa Frasser, a bank manager from Bogotá who talked while sipping a drink and sunning herself on a beach across from the Hotel Caribe. Frasser was here for the weekend.
In the end, she added, the more "negative impact will be on the reputation of the Secret Service, not Cartagena, since prostitution happens everywhere."
The consensus was that the scandal is bad because it may add another stain to Colombia's reputation as a drug-trafficking and criminal hub.
"Now tourists will have more fears," said Elizabeth Sandoval, 32, a worker in a shopping mall where La Dolce Vita is located.
Marcela Romero, 27, who runs a small Internet cafe near La Dolce Vita, said her main fear was that from now on foreign tourists will equate Colombian women with prostitutes.
"I have a friend who is a nurse, and she is dating a man who lives in Alaska," said Romero. "She told me Friday that she now fears that her boyfriend may change his mind about her because of the scandal."
She also recounted how during a taxi ride one day last week, the driver complained when he saw a Colombian woman walking alongside a tall, blond man.
"He said, 'If I see my daughter with a foreigner I will disown her,' and I said to myself, 'Wow, nothing like that was said here before the scandal.' "
Within Cartagena's colonial section, hordes of foreign tourists took in the sights Saturday, led by tour guides. Some stood in front of the Tu Candela at Plaza de los Coches taking pictures of the nightclub whose name has been mentioned in connection with the scandal.
Among the tourists Saturday was a couple from New York, Rob Coppersmith and Mary Manaker, who had booked their vacation trip before the scandal broke.
"Before the scandal, many of our friends had trouble locating where we were going," said Manaker. "But now people have no trouble understanding where Cartagena is and who was involved."
On a beach near the colonial section, Gregorio Caraballo, 62, who rents umbrellas and chairs to beachgoers, hoped the scandal will eventually fade.
"People should look beyond what happened and see that Cartagena has an old history and is a city that by and large is peaceful and healthy."

Nils Lofgren
Having recently finished a 34 date tour with Bruce Springsteen, legendary American songwriter, virtuoso guitarist and pianist, Nils Lofgren returns to the UK in January 2015.
Lofgren's career as a sideman is one of the most illustrious in rock 'n' roll history. Playing alongside Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, and Ringo Starr, he's toured the world and performed for massive crowds. But, along the way, he's always recorded his own music, building a massive discography.
Recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the E Street Band Nils is due to release Face the Music on 5th August 2014, a 10 disc retrospective box set of his 45 years of recording. Nils will be joined for an acoustic set by multi-instrumentalist Greg Varlotta. Expect classic Lofgren favourites like 'Shine Silently, 'I Came to Dance', 'Keith Don't Go' and many others from his vast back catalogue.
"Nils' singing and guitar playing voice remains as distinctive today as it's ever been" - Bruce Springsteen
"Nils Lofgren is genuinely one of my favourite musicians" - Sting
"Listening to Nils play and sing has been an inspiration to me for many years" - Neil Young
