The NBA trade deadline is thirteen days away -- just enough time to quell that gnawing feeling in the gut telling you that, well, Kevin Garnett is old, and he has a lot of money left on that two-year contract, but he sure would shore up that interior defense.

Your Denver Nuggets are officially a playoff team. But they'll likely be out of the postseason mighty fast unless they manage to use the NBA circle of life to prevent the death of their 2012 season.

Labor ministry launches probe into Soma mine inspectors
Tuesday, May 27, 2014
MANISA - Turkey's Labor Ministry has launched an investigation into two inspectors who approved the last inspection of the coal mine in Soma, western Turkey, where 301 miners lost their lives May 13.
The head of the Labor and Social Security Ministry's inspection committee, Mehmet Tezel, said three officers were assigned to conduct the investigation into the two inspectors over possible negligence.
Tezel also pledged that every person found responsible for the country's worst mining disaster would be held to account.
Turkey's labor inspectors had ordered Monday a halt to mining operations in another coal mine run by the same company, Soma Coal Enterprises Inc., according to Soma's district governor.
More than thirty people have been detained and eight arrested, including the executives of the company, in the ongoing investigation into the Soma mine disaster.

text: I would like to commend Caelin on asking his question. If more people asked similar questions, Elfsea would not be in its current situation. I was once told that all great leaders will ask questions, They will consult with their officers, past leaders and their populace. Sometimes it is easy to think that everyone should know the answer to such simple questions, but everyone has a somewhat different answer and it is this sharing of ideas that promotes unity and cooperation. I have watched many Barons and Baronesses and crowns and I think that the things that Dana listed are all very important and very true. However, I would like to add that I would like the new B & B to take two things into consideration. 1. Starting to revive the old practice of mentoring within the group, taking someone under a wing and helping them grow to be a vital part of the SCA. I am not saying they should do it all, but the populace will follow their example. To this day Simon and Tessa hold a special place in my heart as they showed me the ropes. 2. Encourage the officers of this barony to recruit from and listen to their populace. Being a good administrator means you utilize your resources. There appears to be a long time trend that needs to be broken of officers thinking they have to do everything and excluding the populace, then they complain about not getting any help. This is not a slight against the current officers, this has been a long time problem and one of the reasons a lot of old timers don't play locally anymore. There are many wonderful talented people in this Barony who would love to help with various projects if they are just given the chance. So I say to whomever the B & B are, get to know ALL of your populace and utilize them. I know this was long, but I needed to get it off my chest.

Generally speaking, we enjoyed our stay here a lot. On our checkin, we were informed that we received an upgrade to a room with a view (from the pool and sunset), due to being our anniversary. Shower and bed are great, location is pretty good, right on the beach and across the street from Ralphs, with lots of nightlife, bars and restaurants around. Sunset view is breathtaking, can't miss it. We brought our own pillows so we can't comment on that. Would definitely recommend this place.
We were informed during checkin that we were able to get coffee anytime in the lobby, then early in the afternoon my wife went to the reception and asked where she could grab a cup of coffee, the other guy at reception mentioned she could either make it herself in the room or go to Starbucks (which was kinda rude). They charge 10 dollars / night for parking even for guests. WiFi was a bit slow and dropping signal but was usable.
Lovely hotel beside the beach. Rooms were big, comfortable and very clean. Self-serve breakfast available with lots of options.
Location, view, balcony, sound of the ocean.
Dated room decor.
Grocery store nearby. Great places to eat within walking distance. Would definitely return.
Good area and great service!
Cleanliness and customer service
Lots of pillows and comfortable bed great location on beach (top notch)
low grade room not worthy of the price (view of a red wall) Poor design up in bathroom, glass shower door would hit front of toilet (gel stopper applied to cushion) $100 charged to card up front (on top of booking cost of room) for goods/products in the room not used ( reimbursed upon checkout but charge is unnecessary prior to use when card number is on file) toothbrush was requested through phone. It did not show up after 1.5 hours and had to retrieve from front desk
Close to beach, directly at promenade. Good pub across the road. Very nice hotel. Good breakfast.
1) location in PB / MB area--ease of walking to everywhere 2) service and staff terrific 3) Balcony and view
breakfast food and facility
I enjoyed the comfort of the quiet room, nice bed. Small but effective balcony
The entire time I was wishing we had a better view and more room on the balcony.
I liked how clean the place was, also the beds were very comfortable. Ocean view, and sounds were perfect! I watched a beautiful sunset from my little porch.
The wifi didn't work in my room for the three days I was there. Why can't hotels and motels figure this problem out? Also, the $10 a night parking charge was annoying. Just put it into the cost of the room.
Great location if you want stay by the beach, very central located & close to the ocean
No trolley stop nearby Homeless people gather outside
The location, just in front of the sea!
We loved how it was right on the beach! You could walk out from the pool straight onto the boardwalk! Our flight arrived early so we were just walking around and went up to the front desk to see if we could check know early. They went ahead and gave us a parking pass for our rental car and called us about an hour later telling us our room was ready (which was an hour before the actual check in time)! The room was a good size, very nice bathroom, and had a mini fridge! There were a few beach chairs, boogie boards, and beach toys for you to use and bring back. The continental breakfast was good (we each had a waffle every morning). We liked how there were several good restaurants next to our hotel and the pier was only a block away too!!! The staff was very nice... Would totally stay here again!!!
I would pay extra next time to get a room with a view on the second or third floors. We were on the first floor and our patio walked straight out to the pool and jacuzzi. We could hear people above us but just seemed like when we were getting ready for the day. Wish the continental breakfast had other hot options but it did have a good variety so not really a big deal.
View, staff bed was so comfortable.
Location, price, nice view , $10 parking
Wi-Fi was not working properly in the rooms. Worked at the lobby. Not good enough.
The room was great. Bed comfortable. Location wonderful. We hope to return often.
The coffee was not very good in the room or in the kitchen area. But, Starbucks is just a few steps away!
Love the location! Had good partial view room on 3rd floor. Next time I'll get ocean front room on 3rd floor.
We were very pleased with Ocean Park Inn! Our room was very comfortable! The location was excellent! We can't wait to go back!
The ocean view, beautiful !
The staff were excellent! Great location and view.
Location was the reason we choice this hotel. The price of parking was excellent as well and I enjoyed that there was no resort fee.
I did not like that I booked a 'pay later' on booking.com and the hotel still charged me for 1 night immediately. The breakfast selection could also be improved.
The ocean view was fantastic. The sunsets were perfect. Hotel right next to lifeguard station. Fire department is right next to the hotel. There is no smoking at the hotel or beach. Abundance of food choices nearby. Very good continental breakfast. Enjoyed walking out on the pier every day and watching the surfers and sunsets. Waves were good enough to surf, but not overpowering. It was great to have private underground hotel parking. The pool was very relaxing after going in the ocean. There was a private shower right off of the boardwalk for guests only.
There were quite a few homeless that stay on the boardwalk area, but they didn't interfere with the stay or atmosphere.
We could walk to many restaurants. The boardwalk was right outside the hotel. Parking is $10.00 per day. Pool or the ocean right there. Free continental breakfast. Clean rooms!!
Didn't like the pillow so requested another one. They got me another one.
Pool area, with access to the beach. Nice big room with lovely bathroom! The view and location is just amazing. Great value for the money.
The breakfast was a bit boring. No fresh fruit or hot food.
The location and ocean view are absolutely wonderful. We upgraded to an ocean front, second story room. It was so worth the $50 extra! It was awesome to see and hear the ocean day and night. The facilities are the best we have experienced in Pacific Beach. So much higher quality than where we have stayed previously. The air conditioning was available and worked well when we needed it for a short time. Really enjoyed sitting on the little patio overlooking the beach and boardwalk. We actually had fun watching the skills of a small group of skateboarders (they are truly athletes in their own right), and all the different people walking or riding bikes or segues or skating. We just enjoyed the experience so much. The room was clean and very comfortable. The ambiance was peaceful and refreshing! The staff went out of their way to provide our room early since I was scheduled for a hospital procedure the next day.
The ONLY thing I would like to see improved would be the quality of the pillows, and I noticed that the inside of the lid on the ice bucket needed to be cleaned.

text: Trojan Horse Report: 'Culture of Fear and Intimidation' in Birmingham Schools Print article Send a Tip by Nick Hallett 9 Jun 2014 post a comment The head of school inspectors Ofsted has written to Education Secretary Michael Gove warning that schools in Birmingham are at risk of an extremist take over, and made urgent recommendations to the government. His letter summarises the findings of an Ofsted report into alleged Islamist takeovers at 21 state secondary schools in the city which has been dubbed 'Trojan Horse'. The report finds that schools are subject to a "culture of fear and intimidation", that some governors had exerted "inappropriate influence on policy and the day-to-day running" of the schools, and that Birmingham City Council failed to support a number of schools in their efforts to protect pupils from radicalisation and extremism. It concludes that, at several schools, children are being "badly prepared for life in modern Britain". Six of the schools inspected have now been placed in "special measures" and will be subject to further, snap inspections. School inspectors found cases where head teachers felt 'intimidated', 'undermined' and 'bullied' by school governors who had often only recently been appointed. One teacher was so frightened of losing their job that they had to arrange a meeting with inspectors in a supermarket car park to avoid being detected by governors. Some governors had also misused public money by hiring private investigators to interrogate the emails of senior staff. The letter recommends that the government overhaul the whole system of school governors, including mandatory training, requiring that governor's declare their interests and imposing professional governors where governance is judged to be weak. It also says that the government should be much clearer on what should be taught in a "broad and balanced curriculum". In a statement today, Sir Michael Wilshaw said: "Some of our findings are deeply worrying, and in some ways quite shocking." "While a number of these schoos are doing well and providing their children with a good, well-rounded education, there are others that give cause for grave concern. "In the most serious cases a culture of fear and intimidation has taken grip since the schools were last inspected." Speaking in the Commons today, Mr Gove said that he would impose new requirements to make sure that schools teach "British values". However the academy chain at the centre of the allegations has said it "rejects" the report. David Hughes, vice-chair of Park View trust described the report as "knee-jerk". "Ofsted inspectors came to our schools looking for extremism, looking for segregation, looking for proof that our children have religion forced upon them as part of an Islamic plot," he said. "The Ofsted reports found absolutely no evidence of this because this is categorically not what is happening at our schools."

What a wonderful place you have here, I love how you decorated it! This was our first full family vacation and we had a fantastic time. There is so much to do so close to the Resort. The kids all loved the pool. We appreciate you letting us stay here, it felt like a second home and the set up was perfect for all of us. We did not want to leave. :(

Take these Scarlett Johansson pictures from Glamour France. Where's the cleavage? Where's the sex? Where's the Scarlett we used to know and love? Yes, she's still super hot. I'm not saying she isn't. I just want to see more of it! Oh, and how the hell did they manage to make her breasts look so small in that top pic?

Fans of such neo-swingers as Squirrel Nut Zippers and Cherry Poppin' Daddies should take note: Austin's Asylum Street Spankers are the real deal. A mixture of old school jazz, folk, swing, honky-tonk, and blues, the Spankers' music is delightfully tongue-in-cheek. In the 12 years since the band's inception, it has released CDs on a wide swath of subjects: the merits of marijuana (2000's Spanker Madness), sex and lust (1997's Nasty Novelties and 2002's reprise Dirty Ditties), Christmas songs (2001's A Christmas Spanking), and childhood pranks (their latest, Mommy Says No!). Their repertoire includes the work of such seminal blues artists as Bessie Smith, Sophie Tucker, and Robert Johnson, as well as covers of The Beastie Boys' "Paul Revere" and Black Flag's "TV Party." Regardless of the set list, the Asylum Street Spankers should provide good if not always wholesome entertainment.

Odds of Passing a National Press Shield Law? A Respectable 17%, Says GovTrack.
By highlighting journalists' need to protect confidential sources and other information, the Justice Department's recent seizing of AP phone records without notice may finally lead to passage of a federal press shield law. The Authors Guild, which has long backed the enactment of such a law, is part of a coalition of media organizations calling on Congress to use this as an opportunity to strengthen the First Amendment protection of press freedom. It's going to be an uphill battle, says legislation monitor GovTrack.us.
Still, the moment seems right. Amid the uproar over the DOJ's actions, President Obama has asked New York Democrat Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) to revive shield law legislation that was shelved in 2009. Last week Schumer said he would reintroduce the bill, The Free Flow of Information Act, and Texas Republican Rep. Ted Poe introduced shield law legislation in the House. Here's the text of the bill from THOMAS (Library of Congress) and an analysis of the bill's sections by the Newspaper Guild.*

Who is the Baddest of them All? Ukraine, says U.S. Gov
The U.S. government is calling out Ukraine for its shoddy enforcement of intellectual property rights laws, putting the Eastern European nation literally in a class by itself among trading partners who fail to protect copyright holders.
A new report from the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative designates Ukraine a Priority Foreign Country (PFC), a benign-sounding label reserved for the worst intellectual property rights offenders. It's been more than seven years since a U.S. trading partner had PFC status. That country? Ukraine, a PFC from 2001 to 2005, when it improved its practices enough to (temporarily) lose the designation.

Pirate Party Wins First Direct National Elections, in Iceland
Update: Pirate Bay's moved yet again! TorrentFreak reports today that when Swedish prosecutors moved to seize Pirate Bay's Swedish (.SE) and Icelandic (.IS) domains, Pirate Bay swiftly migrated its virtual home to Sint Maarten, proprietor of the .SX top-level domain. Sint Maarten, a constituent country of the Netherlands, comprises the southern half of the Caribbean island Saint Martin.
The Pirate Party, an Internet libertarian group, has been on the political map for a while, particularly in Europe. It has gained seats in state legislatures (in Germany) and, through a coalition, a senate seat in a national legislature (in the Czech Republic). It now claims its first national, directly elected representative, in the Icelandic parliament.
It's been an especially big month for the piracy minded in Iceland. Last week, Iceland became the virtual home of file-sharing promoter Pirate Bay. Pirate Bay, no longer welcome in its home country of Sweden, had briefly moved its site from a Swedish domain (.SE) to Greenland-based domain (.GL). Greenland's domain name host, however, quickly booted Pirate Bay, so it moved again, to Iceland (.IS). It seems to have found a more hospitable home there, at least for the moment. TorrentFreak reported last week that Iceland's top-level domain name registrar had no plans to kick out Pirate Bay.
What does the Pirate Party's parliamentary victory mean? Leo Mirani at Quartz, a business news site, thinks it means the Pirate Party will need to grow up:
…the Pirate Party will need to refine its ideology and find a balance between the ideal vision of online freedom it espouses and the unsavoury activities and people it can easily find itself associated with. That is a tricky line to walk, especially since it can't pick its supporters and members.
We'll see.
Fair Use Ruling: Artist Sufficiently Transformed 25 of 30 Photos
On Thursday, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a trial court's decision, ruling that an artist's uses of 25 copyrighted photographs were sufficiently transformative to be protected by copyright's fair use defense. The court was uncertain, however, whether the artist's uses of five other photographs should be considered adequately transformative to trigger the defense. The court's opinion, Cariou v. Prince, is available here.
The artist, Richard Prince, had copied the work of photographer Patrick Cariou, who had taken the photographs over a six-year period in Jamaica. Cariou had published the collection in a book, "Yes Rasta," in 2000.
Prince used 30 photos from Cariou's book in creating "Canal Zone," a series of large-scale works exhibited at galleries in St. Barth's and New York City in 2007 and 2008. Prince's modifications to the black-and-white photos varied, but included enlarging the images, adding acrylic paint, pasting on new elements, tinting them, and using them in collages. According to the court, some of Prince's works exhibited at the galleries almost entirely obscure Cariou's original photographs. In others, Cariou's original images are still readily apparent.
The court found that 25 of Prince's works "manifest an entirely different aesthetic from Cariou's photographs":
Where Cariou's serene and deliberately composed portraits and landscape photographs depict the natural beauty of Rastafarians and their surrounding environs, Prince's crude and jarring works, on the other hand, are hectic and provocative. Cariou's black-and-white photographs were printed in a 9 1/2″ x 12″ book. Prince has created collages on canvas that incorporate color, feature distorted human and other forms and settings, and measure between ten and nearly a hundred times the size of the photographs.
The court cautioned, however, that not all "cosmetic changes to the photographs would necessarily constitute fair use. A secondary work may modify the original without being transformative." As an example, the court cited its 1998 ruling that a book providing synopses of Seinfeld television episodes infringed the original shows' copyrights, since the book simply repackaged the episodes' content in a new form.
The appellate court was uncertain whether Prince's modifications were merely cosmetic for five of the thirty works. The court remanded the case to the trial court to determine whether those "relatively minimal alterations" were sufficiently transformative to be deemed fair uses of Cariou's photographs.

Fort Worth Southwest rallied from an early deficit and rolled to a 63-45 victory over Fort Worth South Hills in a District 7-4A boys basketball game Tuesday at Wilkerson-Greines Activity Center.Kyle Hickey came out on fire for South Hills (14-11, 5-7) in a game the Scorpions needed to keep pace for one of the final three playoff spots. The senior buried three consecutive 3-pointers to start the game, but South Hills collapsed after Hickey suffered an eye injury.South Hills led 11-2 after Fred Norman finally got the Raiders on the board, but Hickey was poked in the eye bringing the ball upcourt with 4:38 left in the first quarter and never returned."That kid [Hickey] is the best player in the district," said Southwest coach John Church, whose Raiders improved to 11-12, 7-5. "I was worried about how our players were going to take it, coming out flat like that. But when that second group came in, they got after it."Part of that second group was Kris Jones, who came in and scored a basket right away that sparked Southwest. The Raiders chipped away to trail 15-11 after one quarter.Southwest went on a 27-2 run starting early in the second quarter and put the game out of reach. Gordan Dean's 3-pointer with 6:17 left in the third quarter gave Southwest a 40-19 lead."Kris [Jones] is getting better and he just played real smart," said Church. "He gets his blocks and scores, and he gave us a big lift tonight."It was a balanced effort by the Raiders, who were led by Kameron Malbrough with 17 points. Najee Adderly and Jase Brock had nine each, and Jones added eight.Treylon Lasalle had 10 of his game-high 19 points in the fourth quarter for South Hills, but without Hickey the Scorpions couldn't mount a comeback.

All quotes tagged Survival
(885 quotes found)
""Money is your means of survival. The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers you scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?"
"So, dear friend, put fear out of your heart. This nation will survive, this state will prosper, the orderly business of life will go forward if only men can speak in whatever way given them to utter what their hearts hold -- by voice, by posted card, by letter or by press. Reason never has failed men. Only force and repression have made the wrecks in the world."
"Christianity has sufficient inner strength to survive and flourish on its own. It does not need state subsidies, nor state privileges, nor state prestige. The more it obtains state support the greater it curtails human freedom."
"Survival, with honor, that outmoded and all-important word, is as difficult as ever and as all-important to a writer. Those who do not last are always more beloved since no one has to see them in their long, dull, unrelenting, no-quarter-given-and-no"
"In an age when man has forgotten his origins and is blind even to his most essential needs for survival, water along with other resources has become the victim of his indifference"
"In the survival of favoured individuals and races, during the constantly-recurring struggle for existence, we see a powerful and ever-acting form of selection."
"From now on it is only through a conscious choice and through a deliberate policy that humanity can survive."

Indicating that little progress has been made on key issues despite help from a federal mediator, the employers' bargaining organization that represents six grain export terminals in the Pacific Northwest presented the International Longshore and Warehouse Union with its final contract offer.
The union responded Sunday that, despite reports to the contrary, its membership has not decided to call a strike. "We want to keep the grain moving as we have done nonstop since the 1930s," ILWU Coast Committeeman Leo Sundet said.
The Pacific Northwest Grain Handlers and ILWU locals from Portland; Vancouver, Wash.; Tacoma; and Seattle have been negotiating since August. The previous contract expired at the end of September.
When it became obvious to both parties in mid-October that they were far apart, the employers and the ILWU agreed to seek assistance from the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. Negotiations have been held since Oct. 29 with the participation of the FMCS, but discussions have failed to produce an agreement.
The employers said the sticking points do not involve salaries and benefits, but rather "uncompetitive workplace rules that are significantly different from those agreed to between the ILWU and two competing grain terminals on the Columbia River."
The key benchmark contract for employers was signed earlier this year by the EGT grain export terminal in Longview, Wash., and the ILWU, after months of bitter demonstrations and numerous arrests involving longshoremen and their spouses. EGT had attempted to open the terminal with labor represented by another union.
In one of those demonstrations, the ILWU's international president, Robert McEllrath, was detained and charged with attempting to block a train from entering the terminal.
EGT and the ILWU finally agreed to a tentative arrangement earlier this year that was brokered by Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire. EGT agreed to hire labor represented by the ILWU.
However, the contract that the ILWU eventually negotiated with EGT contains provisions that differ from the contract under which six other terminals in the region have been operating. The six terminals that are represented by the grain handlers association are reportedly seeking concessions from the union similar to what EGT has in its contract with the ILWU.
Sundet said the terminals have profited under the previous contract that expired at the end of September. He said the ILWU has been bargaining in good faith, as the union has done since the 1930s.
"We believe that in light of a low-yielding harvest and corresponding high bushel prices, the profitable grain merchants are using the circumstances to undermine a mature 80-year contract with longshoremen that made the Northwest one of the most productive grain export regions in the world," Sundet said.
The ILWU will not comment on the employers' final offer until it has been shared with the union membership, but Sundet said any reports about the union planning to call a strike are not accurate.
The six terminals that are members of the Pacific Northwest Grain Handlers are the Louis Dreyfus terminal in Seattle; Temco/Cargill in Tacoma; United Grain/Mitsui in Vancouver, Wash.; and Temco/Cargill, Louis Dreyfus and Columbia Grain/Marubeni in Portland.

Once upon a time, singers and songwriters told stories. Back before Bob Dylan plugged in, "folk" music was just that music about folks, some stemming from oral traditions, others steeped in a performer's personal stories. That was before the "confessional" folk of people like Ani DiFranco took hold and all the characters in the songs became "me" or "you." Gilbert real estate agent Ty Lusk takes the old-school folk approach on Live at Club Red, getting onstage with just a guitar and singing songs about his job ("I'm a Realtor"), sitting in a Mexican jail ("Mexican Jail Cell"), the divergent life paths he and his brother took ("Biggest Fan"), overcoming physical disabilities ("Little Harelip Boy"), and giving a nod to Tucson musician Roger Clyne ("Rocky Point"). Lusk's gravelly voice narrates these stories like a campfire crooner, but he's also got a sharp sense of humor, singing lines like "You can pull up a chair, you can pull up my face" in "Nymphomaniac" and turning Prince's "Purple Rain" into a sparkling, stripped-down ballad that would be funny if it wasn't such an earnest rendering with a stunning electric guitar solo sailing in after the last chorus. Lusk also braves a Robert Earl Keen song ("Road Goes On Forever"), but his originals are equally endearing. Live at Club Redwon't make up for every folk singer who decided they weren't gonna work at Maggie's Farm no more, but it will give folks a reason to rock without wondering who screwed over the singer.

text: Durbin Admits Smear, Deletes Facebook Post Print article Send a Tip by Mike Flynn 29 Oct 2013 post a comment A couple weeks ago, Dem Majority Whip Sen. Dick Durbin posted an outrageous claim on Facebook that a House GOP leader had told President Obama that he "cannot stand to look at" him during talks on resolving a government shutdown. Even after House GOP Leadership and the White House denied the claim, Durbin used the anecdote in a fundraising email. Acknowledging the event never happened, Durbin quietly deleted his Facebook post on Monday. "[The White House] gave me a bad quote and then they said it didn't occur," Durbin said. "Now it's history, it's behind us." Durbin was not at the meeting where the alleged incident happened. Even given Washington's increasingly polarized environment, Durbin's allegation struck veteran observers as "off-key." Adults, even with opposing political views, simply don't speak that way. For Durbin, it was a convenient fable to show how irresponsible Republicans were. Durbin recently wrote on Facebook: "I appreciate this clarification from the White House that explains recent conflicting reports on the GOP quote. It is important now to move beyond the unfortunate events of the last few weeks and work together constructively so that we're not faced with another shutdown showdown or debt-ceiling debacle." Keep in mind, the "conflicting reports" are only because Durbin lied about what the GOP said. Perhaps Durbin didn't lie. Perhaps he just related a lie told to him by a White House staffer. If that is the case, who is that staffer? Still, I guess it is good that Durbin now wants to work "constructively" with Republicans in the upcoming budget talks. Presumably, by working "constructively," Durbin means he will no longer engage in smears against his political opponents.

Dear EarthTalk: What is the latest prognosis for wind energy to command a larger piece of the renewable energy pie? -- Peter M., Akron, OH
Hydroelectric sources of power dwarf other forms of renewable energy, but wind power has been a dominant second for years, and continues to show "hockey stick" growth moving forward. According to the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC), global cumulative installed wind capacity—the total amount of wind power available—has grown fifty-fold in less than two decades, from just 6,100 megawatts (MW) in 1996 to 318,137 MW in 2013.
And the future looks brighter still. Analysts from Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) predict that wind will account for the largest share—30 percent—of new renewables added to the global power grid by 2030. That new renewables are expected to account for as much as 70 percent of all new power sources over the next 20 years means that wind is poised to become a major player on the global energy scene.
Here in the U.S., energy generated by domestic wind farms has nearly tripled in just the past four years, despite a brief hiccup due to a lapse in the Production Tax Credit, a renewable energy production incentive that effectively subsidizes the creation of more wind farms. But even despite this, wind represented about a third of all new power added to the U.S. grid over the past five years. The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), a leading environmental non-profit and wind power advocate, forecasts that the U.S. will derive some 20 percent of its total electricity production from wind by 2030.
"The U.S. industry has many reasons for favorable long-term prospects," reports the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA), a non-profit trade group representing the wind industry. "In addition to the record activity at the end of 2013, wind energy helped keep the lights on and insulate against temporary price spikes during the recent 'polar vortex' cold weather snap, demonstrating the value of wind power in a balanced energy portfolio."
AWEA also points out recent reports showing how incorporation of wind energy lowers costs for electric consumers. "And critical to some parts of the country facing continuing drought, wind energy uses no water in its production, as well as releasing no emissions," adds the group.
The fact that wind energy in the U.S. avoids some 100 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually is also good news. AWEA adds that that number will grow as wind energy scales up to 20 percent of the grid and beyond "making the addition of more wind power one of the fastest, cheapest, and largest-scale ways for states to meet the Administration's new goals for reducing carbon pollution from power plants."
While wind continues to grow fast, solar may finally be catching up. According to BNEF, some 36.7 gigawatts (GW) of new solar photovoltaic capacity were added worldwide in 2013 compared with 35.5 GW worth of new wind power installations. BNEF adds that global demand for wind turbines may actually shrink in 2014 (by five percent), representing the first such decline since 2004. But Justin Wu, head of wind analysis for BNEF, says it's just a temporary blip: "Falling technology costs, new markets and the growth of the offshore industry will ensure wind remains a leading renewable energy technology."

When their CEO chooses to speak and headline with a company that is against us, it is tarnishing Coca-Cola's reputation," Schappaugh said. Delta Air Lines, also a gay-friendly company that ranks high with HRC's Corporate Equality Index, is a sponsor of the Leadercast event and Schappaugh said a letter will be sent to company officials pointing out the disparities between Delta and Chick-fil-A over equality for LGBT employees. Currently Chick-fil-A writes non-discrimination clauses into the franchisee agreements in states where they are required by law. Where it isn't required, they don't, said Art Izzard of the Queer Justice League. "We feel if Chick-fil-A really wants to 'talk the talk' for leadership and change they should 'walk the walk' and adopt a corporate policy that protects all their employees from discrimination regardless of the legal requirements of a specific jurisdiction," Izzard said. GetEQUAL, a national direct-action group, is also planning national protests of Chick-fil-A on May 6, including supporting student organizations trying to get the fast-food chain kicked off campuses for its anti-gay support, Schappaugh said. "Through action we can create change," he said.

MIAMI (AP) - Officials are announcing new rules banning the importation of four snakes that have been plaguing the Everglades.
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar on Tuesday announced the ban on Burmese pythons, yellow anacondas and northern and southern African pythons.
The snakes are also now banned from being transported across state lines.
Pythons have become a growing problem in Florida's revered swampland. Many are believed to have been pets that were dumped once they grew too big; others may have escaped from pet shops battered by 1992's Hurricane Andrew and have been reproducing ever since.
The snakes can grow to be 26 feet long and more than 200 pounds and threaten indigenous species. Last year, one even killed a deer.

Is This the First NYC Community Board Meeting Held in a Public Plaza?
I can't say with certainty that this is the first NYC community board meeting held in a public plaza, but it certainly is the first I've heard of in my 22 years in New York City. On Thursday, Queens Community Board 3 held their monthly meeting amid the hustle and bustle of Jackson Heights' Diversity Plaza on 37th Road between 73rd and 74th Streets.
By my count the meeting began with at least 150 people seated or standing. Plenty of on-lookers stopped by and admired the proceedings. The plaza was quite crowded.
City Council Member Danny Dromm (to the right of the mic), an early and vocal supporter of the plaza, spoke to the crowd. Without his steadfast leadership, there's a good chance this meeting space wouldn't exist.
