Editor's Note: Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va. and former U.S. Representative Steve LaTourette, R-Ohio, join WTOP's Capitol Hill correspondent Dave McConnell for "Ask the Lawmakers" 10 a.m. Friday, Feb. 15
WASHINGTON - While Congress attempts to stave off the devastating across-the-board spending cuts known as sequestration, Republican Sen. Rand Paul says it wouldn't be such a bad idea if the sequester goes through.
"I think the sequester has to go through," Paul, R-Ky., told WTOP Thursday morning. "People need to realize the sequester is not really a cut in spending. It's a cut in the rate of growth of spending."
He adds that a new proposal by Senate Democrats to avoid sequestration with a mix of spending cuts and new tax revenue is a bad idea.
"Another dumb idea," said Paul, who on Tuesday delivered the tea party response to President Barack Obama's State of the Union address. "They just raised taxes three months ago. Did they not get enough of a fix then? We've got to cut spending."
In response, Virginia Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., says allowing sequestration to take effect March 1 would be "a stupid way to cut."
"Sequestration was set up to be the stupidest way possible to cut," he told WTOP Thursday. "It cuts every component of government, regardless of whether the progam works or doesn't work."
As a result, the government will be breaking multiple contracts, he says.
"We're going to furlough government contractors one day a week. That's going to have a ripple effect across the whole capital region's economy," Warner said.
Paul maintains that any tax hike is a bad idea.
"The only real stimulus that ever works is leaving more money in the economy, which means lowering taxes," he said.
"Cutting the rate of growth of spending is absolutely a good idea. I don't think it will hurt the economy one bit," Paul added.
The sequester would drain $85 billion from the Pentagon and domestic programs, with the D.C. region feeling the pinch the hardest.
"The idea of 'plague every house,' it may be a good political soundbyte but it doesn't have any connection to anybody who's ever done a budget, run a business or knows how to operate an enterprise," Warner said.
He said he hopes the Democratic plan is successful, but if not, then cuts should be done in a less devastating manner.
"There is blame enough to go around for both parties. Democrats (have) got to be more willing to do entitlement reform. Republicans (have) got to be willing to do more revenues," said Warner.
"Even areas like defense need to be cut, but there's a smart way and a stupid way to cut them. We set up the most stupid way."

Male High eyes another State run
In every young pitcher's career there are moments when they must rise up and exceed the expectations of their teammates, their coaches, and themselves.
Rare occasions when hard work and preparation finally meet opportunity.
For Male High School's senior ace Brandon Allen, one such occasion was last year's state quarterfinal against Lexington Christian.
Then ranked sixth in the state, Lexington Christian was a heavy favorite. The Eagles had shelled Allen and the Bulldogs for an easy 5-1 victory during the regular season.
This outing was different, however, as Allen put in the best performance of his career.
He struck out four and allowed only four hits and no walks.
He threw so efficiently that a mere 86 pitches was all it took to lead the Bulldogs to a 3-0 win and a trip to the State Final Four.
"He did what all great pitchers do," explained Male assistant coach Bernie Holkamp. "He buckled down and got the win."
This season, Allen, who is 2-0, and his teammates are looking to get back to the state tournament.
Male is 10-4 and wins over No. 11 Lexington Christian, No. 5 Pleasure Ridge Park and No. 2 Harrison County have made it clear that this team has no lack of potential, although it's had some tough losses.
"We're taking our lumps right now," explained head coach Todd Driskell. "But that's part of building strength as a team."
"We're trying to peak at the right time and get some seasoning along the way," Driskell continued.
As one of the Seventh region's top hurlers, Allen will be crucial in determining the fate of this year's team.
Driskell compares Allen's style to Greg Maddux, the former major league pitcher regarded for his control. "He doesn't waste many pitches," Driskell said. "He comes right at you and tries to get you out in three pitches or less."
Allen's leadership has been impressive.
"He's embraced his role as a captain and looks to encourage and push the other kids," Driskell said.
Allen, who posted a 12-4 record and an ERA of 2.1 last season, was a pre-season All-State team selection.
While Brandon Allen may be garnering attention this season, he is not the only Allen on Male's roster.
His younger brother Chris, a sophomore catcher, has played an important role in Brandon's development.
"He tells me what I need to work on and I do the same," Chris Allen said.
This season has been particularly fun for their father, Roger Allen.
"It's the first time they've been on the same team and not competing against each other," Roger Allen said.
Next fall, Allen will continue his career at Wabash Valley College in Mt. Carmel, Ind.
"Of course (playing professionally) is his dream," Roger Allen said. "But he would also like to become a teacher someday."
Allen said one of his teachers at Male sparked an interest in the profession. "I took Coach (Tom) Crews' U.S. History class last year and he made the material so fun and easy to understand," said Allen. "I want to major in education so one day I can teach history and coach baseball." Tom Crews, who recently resigned as Male's head basketball coach, still teaches at the school.
For now, though, Allen's first priority is reaching the State Tournament.
"We just need to come together and play as a team," he said. "Hopefully we can make it back."

Ask Wright State
Transfer Academics banner
Credit Transfer
We understand that your earned credits are important to you! Wright State accepts credits from college and universities that are regionally accredited. Below are resources that can help you plan courses you can take before transferring to Wright State. If you are ready to transfer now, these tools can help you see how your coursework may be used toward your degree.
Transferability vs. Applicability
One of the most common questions we get asked is, "Will my credits transfer?" Did you know there is a difference between credit transferability and credit applicability toward your major?
Transferability means that the credit hours earned from another school will be added to your total number of hours at Wright State. Your credit will "transfer" as long as your current and/or previous schools and courses meet certain criteria. Beginning Fall 2005, a grade of D or higher earned at any regionally accredited institution will transfer, as long as the course is a college level course. Developmental courses will not transfer into Wright State.
Wright State University accepts credits from colleges and universities that are regionally accredited. Regionally accrediting agencies are Middle States, New England, North Central, Northwest, Southern, and Western Associations of Colleges and Schools and the American Council on Education for military credits.
Applicability of transfer credit means that the credit hours from another school will count as credit toward your degree at Wright State. The applicability of credit is dependent upon:
- Course equivalencies previously established between schools
- Decision made by academic advisors
- Decisions made by major/academic college
The website transferology.com can be helpful when determining the applicability of your transfer credit.
A free online tool that can help you determine the transferability and applicability of your credits.
You can use several of the resources, including:
- Viewing program/major requirements
- Creating a program plan that shows equivalencies
Creating a plan is easy! If you create a free account you can do all of the above and:
- Enter and store the classes you have completed
- Run a program plan to see how your classes will apply toward your degree
*Please note: If your school is not listed this doesn't mean your credits are non-transferable. Contact the Transfer Student Center at (937) 775-4830 with questions.
Statewide Transfer Guarantee
The University System of Ohio and the Ohio Board of Regents have created transfer programs that guarantee a seamless transfer of credits.
Ohio Transfer Module (OTM)
Students who have completed the Ohio Transfer Module (OTM) at another school will be considered to have completed Wright State's General Education requirements. General education requirements at Ohio's public colleges and universities represent a shared body of knowledge and academic skills.
The Ohio Board of Regents requires each school to identify a set of such courses (54-60 quarter hours or 36-40 semester hours) in the following areas:
- English Composition
- Mathematics
- Arts/Humanities
- Social and Behavioral Sciences
- Natural and Physical Sciences
Some programs require specific courses as prerequisites for more advanced major courses. Therefore, you might be required to take additional courses to meet program requirements, even with a completed OTM. Prerequisite courses apply to all students.
Wright State also considers all individually approved Ohio Transfer Module courses (taken Fall 2005 or later) toward your general education requirements. A list of Ohio Transfer Modules is available through the Ohio Board of Regents' Credit Transfer website. For more information, discuss the applicability of your transfer credit with your academic advisor.
Ohio Transfer Assurance Guide (TAG)
The Transfer Assurance Guide (TAG) program identifies foundational courses in over 30 majors. These courses have been reviewed as exact equivalents and are guaranteed to transfer statewide for students in that major. All Ohio public institutions participate in this program.
The Transfer Assurance Guide (TAG) Reporting System (on the Ohio Board of Regents' website) will help you cross-reference approved courses between other schools and Wright State.
Ohio Career Technical Credit Transfer (CT2)
Students completing certain courses at secondary or adult career-technical education institutions can transfer credit to state institutions of higher education. Over 10 technical majors are being reviewed, but Wright State may not offer programs in those fields. For detailed information, visit the Ohio Board of Regents' Career Technical Credit Transfer website.
Credit by Exam
Did you know that not all transfer credits have to be done in a classroom? Credit by examinations are becoming popular among high school, military, distance education, and adult students.
Wright State awards college credit based on five exams:
- Advanced Placement (AP)
- College-Level Examination Program (CLEP)
- DANTES Standardized Subject Test (DSST)
- Excelsior College Credit by Examinations (ECE)
- International Baccalaureate (IB)
*Important Tip: Discuss your options with your advisor before signing up for any exams.
Advanced Placement (AP)
The AP tests are taken in high school. AP scores of 3 or better are considered passing, and you will receive college credit. An AP score of 4 or better in certain areas is recommended for students pursuing a major in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Check out Wright State's course equivalency chart for AP (PDF).
Transcript Request: Request your official scores be sent to Wright State Undergraduate Admissions through the College Board website.
College-Level Examination Program (CLEP)
Wright State accepts only College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) Subject exams. There are 28 subject tests available. Academic departments at Wright State determine how credit will be awarded for CLEP exams. Some departments at Wright State may require higher scores from certain CLEP exams. Check out Wright State's course equivalency chart for CLEP (PDF).
Transcript Request: Request your official scores be sent to Wright State Undergraduate Admissions through the College Board website.
DANTES Standardized Subject Test (DSST)
If you're in the military, you can earn college credit with the DANTES (Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support) program. There are 37 DSST exams available to you. Academic departments at Wright State determine how credit will be awarded for DSST exams. Check out Wright State's course equivalency chart for DSST (PDF).
Transcript Request: Request your official scores be sent to Wright State Undergraduate Admissions through the Prometric (DSST) Resources website.
Excelsior College Credit by Examinations (ECE)
Wright State recognizes Excelsior College's credit by exams. There are 50 subject tests available. Academic departments at Wright State determine how credit will be awarded for Excelsior College Credit by Examinations (ECE). Check out Wright State's course equivalency chart for Excelsior College Credit-by-Examinations (PDF).
Transcript Request: Request your official scores be sent to Wright State Undergraduate Admissions through the Excelsior College Credit-by-Exams website. Simply follow the instructions in the ECE Registration Guide (login required).
International Baccalaureate (IB)
Wright State University awards credit for scores of 5 or better on the higher level examinations in Geography, Latin, Greek, Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics; and a score of 6 or better in Language Al (English). A complete listing of Wright State course equivalents is available from the Office of Admissions. Students who have completed IB courses in Spanish, French or German are encouraged to complete departmental examinations for advanced credit and placement. Check out Wright State's course equivalency chart for IB (PDF).

*The Department of Modem Languages encourages students who have completed an IB course in a foreign language to complete the departmental examinations for advanced credit and placement. Wright State will not award credit in a foreign language to a student based only on IB examination scores.
Note: The History Department has concluded that Wright State University does not have a comparable course to the IB World History course; therefore, credit will not be awarded for this subject area.

Rated 2 out of 5 by KatieR Nice mist, but LOTS of mold Even with regular cleanings, this humidifier has extremely difficult-to-reach spots that got moldy within the first week. We're very disappointed! March 5, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 wish it were easier to clean! This humidifier was great while we had it. It was quiet, ran all night, and produced mist that I could control how much or how little. It seemed easier to care for than most other humidifiers, but found it needed cleaned often and it was difficult to do if you don't stay on top of swishing with warm soapy/vinegar water. We went out of town and forgot to clean it out and leave it open to dry and came home to a moldy humidifier that couldn't be saved (it stunk and the seal at the bottom had warped). We had it for a year and loved it while we had it. If I had to do it over again, I would buy this and also an old school bottle brush with bristles at the end and a flexible wire shaft to make cleaning easier and thorough. May 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by GabbyGal Functional and easy Quiet and easy to use. Has a dial to adjust the amount of steam and the nozzle can be turned 360 degrees to point wherever you like. My only complaint is that it drips when changing out the water, but I guess, what do you expect when you are dealing with water? May 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by LMarie Effective, Easy to Use Our family has gone through several humidifiers over the years and this is by far our favorite. We purchased one for our son's nursery and liked it so much we got one more for our own bedroom. First and foremost, it's extremely effective but absolutely quiet. There is a nice dial adjustment so you can select the perfect amount of moisture, without being confined to a limited number of settings. There is also an adjustable nozzle so you can 'aim' the mist in whatever direction you would like. It's extremely easy to use and clean, and the best part is you don't have to constantly replace filters. December 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 does the trick Our son's room gets cold but I was afraid to turn the heat too high and dry him out. This humidifier is simple and works great. A little tricky to refill but easy once you get the hang of it. December 11, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Aimee134 Great works like a charm This is so easy to use and so quiet I barely know It is on! It also worked wonders for my son right after we put it on. Good size , not complicated or clunky And I like the price. March 25, 2011

Descale Humidifier
A:Lime deposits may develop in the nebulizer of Crane's Raindrop Cool Mist Humidifier due to hard water deposits. To overcome this problem, follow these easy steps to "de-scale" your humidifier:
1. Dampen a wet cloth with a few drops of white vinegar, and gently wipe the nebulizer until the deposits begin to disappear.
2. Rub down gently with a dry cloth to remove the remains of any humidity.
3. Be careful not to scratch the nebulizer.
4. Use care to not clean the nebulizer with any chemical solutions.
For this, and all best practices, keep a product's User Manual handy to maintain, and prolong, the life of your product.

Anyone Traveling with Baby for the Holidays?
|Mon, 11-19-2012 - 11:13am
Traveling during the holidays almost always feels stressful -- and adding a new baby to the mix can make even the shortest flight seem overwhleming. It's true, managing airport crowds, security, the luggage, a toddler and a baby -- while keeping your sanity -- is a lot to ask of a new mom (or any mom, really!). But with a a little prep and lots of patience, you can have a smooth travel experience. Here's how:

"Bullet Points" is our format for Community Board 15 meeting coverage, providing takeaways we think are important. Information in Bullet Points is meant only to be a quick summary, and some issues may be more deeply explored in future articles.
Neighbors Demand Board Rescind Support For Drug Counseling Center: Residents of East 17th Street near Kings Highway rallied at last night's Community Board 15 meeting, demanding the Board rescind a letter of support for a proposed drug treatment facility at 1670 East 17th Street.
Led by Madison-Marine-Homecrest Civic Association President Ed Jaworski, a group of residents took to the podium, claiming that the Board failed to inform the community that the issue would be discussed and voted on in December.
"The City Charter and the Community Board bylaws say that the Community Board should serve the community, should communicate within the community, should act as a liaison agency, should review services, should develop plans for the community. None of this was done regarding the drug center being located on East 17th Street," Jaworski said. "What took place at the November meeting was a shortcut. It was cutting the community's input."
The center, One World Counseling, received a letter of support from Community Board 15 in November with a 31-4 vote. Dmitri Oster, a rep for One World, told the Board then that they intended to target immigrants in the Sheepshead Bay area who have turned to drugs to cope with cultural integration. They would offer only counseling and would not distribute medication.
Keep reading about this story, and summaries of other actions from last night's Community Board 15 meeting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by RTab Took a Chance. I love crema coffees. I have my favorites but thought I'd take a chance and try a new one. I was very happy I did. I love the taste of the Jacobs Caffe Crema Vollmundig Intensiv. It is strong but not bitter. It has become one of my regulars. February 13, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tujungan Unusual Characteristic Jabobs CCVI (not 206, but cafe crema vollumdig intensiv) makes about a six ounce cup (closer to 5oz). It has the nice (creamless) foam that only a Tassimo can do. Besides this- it has to have one of the nicest aromas- gentle and complex. The taste is good but has something else there- I almost want to say hibiscus. Nevertheless, it's a high class cup of joe. May 27, 2012

(Cox Maze)
|Maze Procedure
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Reasons for Procedure
Possible Complications
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Anesthesia-related problems
- The need for a permanent pacemaker
- Kidney or other organ failure
- Stroke
- Death
- Smoking
- Drinking
- Chronic disease such as diabetes or obesity
- The use of certain medications
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
- Physical exam, including blood and urine tests
- Chest x-ray —makes pictures of structures inside the chest using a small amount of radiation
- Electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG)—a test that records the heart's activity by measuring electrical currents through the heart muscle
Talk to your doctor about your medicines, including over-the-counter medicines. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Anti-inflammatory drugs (eg, aspirin )
- Blood thinners, such as clopidogrel (Plavix), warfarin (Coumadin), or ticlopidine (Ticlid)
- Arrange for someone to drive you home from the hospital. Also, have someone help you at home.
- Eat a light meal the night before. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
- If you smoke, it is best to stop.

Syndicated from 1960-61; 130 five-minute "chapters" were produced. These segments made up a series of five-chapter, 25-minute episodes.
Based on the story and characters of Carlo Collodi's "The Adventures of Pinocchio."
Addition of new material and adaptation by Arthur Rankin, Jr.
This, the first-ever Rankin/Bass production, used the Animagic stop-motion animation process. Animation was produced in Japan. Voice work was recorded in Canada. Hasty production of the episodes led to frequent jerky or stagnant animation.
"I always wanted to do animation work, and having been an animator at ABC on a limited basis, I wanted to expand that. In order to do so, one had to find a property and television stations to play it," recalled producer-director Arthur Rankin, Jr.
In Chicago, the series aired on "Garfield Goose and Friends" and later on "The Ray Rayner Show," both on WGN-TV.
The character Cool S. Cat may have been inspired by Maynard G. Krebs of the "Dobie Gillis" series. Pedro Pistol is a parody of Peter Gunn. Cricket was not named Jiminy, probably to avoid a legal clash with the Disney studios. Pinocchio himself differs considerably from the Disney version; he wears a red-striped T-shirt and blue shorts, and has a pre-school child's voice.
In the last five episodes, starting with #126, Geppetto tells Pinocchio and Cricket stories of Willy Nilly, his pet Roscoe and his landlady. Willy Nilly, although intended to be a spinoff series for syndication, eventually became the 1965 Rankin/Bass film "Willy McBean And His Magic Machine."

The months are now racing past here in Burgundy. With the wettest spring on record no behind us, summer at last feels like it is here to stay.
An abundance or rain and then a sudden blast of heat have ensured that the vines in the village and my garden have exploded into life and the mower has not stopped spinning. The weeds are in ascendence and the idea of a goat, or perhaps an employee are not off the cards. But with early mornings and long evenings the work is getting done and the potential of the gardens and orchard are only too clear.
The cherry tree is heavy with fruit, fur-coated peaches have appeared and the roses are at last in bloom. The vegetable patch is providing and it is fair to say that May in Burgundy is stunning!
In the house the progress is slow but steady. More walls have come out and a couple more have gone up. The stairs and room layout has been confirmed and I have chosen a limestone from a local quarry to cover the floors. As ever my desire to get on with the "pretty things" has meant that local brocante have been attacked with vigor and I long for the day when I can start decorating.
With that in mind, the good news is The Hungry Cyclist Lodge has its first bookings for next year and so I can now put in writing that The Hungry Cyclist Lodge will be open on July 2014. No I need to get the thing built…

24th February 2011
Birmingham Museums & Art Gallery is the first partner organisation to be chosen by the Crafts Council for the Fifty:Fifty Programme
The Crafts Council and Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery (BMAG) will work together to deliver a major contemporary craft exhibition in autumn 2011. The exhibition called Lost in Lace will take place at the Gas Hall at BMAG from the 29 October 2011 to 19 February 2012.
BMAG were picked from a shortlist of three institutions on the strength of their proposal to present an ambitious exhibition featuring twenty international artists, designers and makers who will explore the relationship between textiles, specifically lace, and architecture through site-specific installations.
The Fifty:Fifty Programme is an innovative biennial scheme in which the Crafts Council match fund up to £50,000 with a partner UK organisation. The Crafts Council and BMAG will develop Lost in Lace together, sharing resources 50:50.
Rosy Greenlees, Executive Director at the Crafts Council, said:
"We are excited to be working with Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery on Lost in Lace this year. This is the first exhibition to emerge from the Fifty:Fifty Programme and we hope it will pave the way for more ground-breaking contemporary craft exhibitions with other cultural institutions in the future."
Rita McLean, Head of Museums and Heritage Services at BMAG, said:
"Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery is delighted to be working in collaboration with the Crafts Council in presenting this exciting and ambitious exhibition. It is an opportunity for us to share resources and expertise and work together to continually support new opportunities to showcase the best in national and international contemporary crafts."

In the hardcover The Bucolic Plague book, you will learn that raised in rural Wisconsin, Kilmer-Purcell moved to Manhattan to work in advertising in the 1990s. In his memoir I Am Not Myself These Days, he wrote about moonlighting as a nightclub drag queen. Now, in the Fabulous Beekman Boys book, The Bucolic Plague : How Two Manhattanites Became Gentlemen Farmers, he recalls how he and his partner, Dr. Brent Ridge, a Martha Stewart Omni Media v-p, became weekend farmers after purchasing the 19th-century Beekman Mansion on 60 acres near the hauntingly beautiful town of Sharon Springs, N.Y. Kilmer-Purcell writes with dramatic flair and trenchant wit, uncovering mirthful metaphors as he plows through their daily experiences, meeting neighbors, signing on caretaker Farmer John, herding goats, canning tomatoes, and digging a garden, as they fix up the 205-year-old house. In the Discovery book, the hardcover The Bucolic Plague, he cleverly contrasts ad agency life with rustic barn mucking, and he must choose: "I just can't face spending the rest of my life behind a desk selling dish soap to Middle America. Hell, I want to be Middle America." This entertaining book gets an extra big boost from the forthcoming Beekman Farm, a Planet Green documentary TV series about the dynamic duo's eco-adventures scheduled to air this spring.

We've seen plenty of evidence that central bankers in the developed countries intend to continue their easing policies, driving up balance sheets. Take a look at the rise in the balance sheets as a percent of GDP from the largest developed countries. The European Central Bank (ECB) tops the list, with the balance sheet approach half of its GDP.
Williams says central banks need to continue to print money to "maintain the pretence that the global economic situation is under control, which it surely is not."
This opinion is echoed by my friend, Ian McAvity. In his Deliberation on World Markets newsletter, he says "the orchestrated reopening of Cypriot banks creates two euros despite claims to the contrary." Most importantly, the fact that "gold did not surge on these developments for the second most important currency teetering on the brink adds weight to the case for surreptitious central bank interventions," he says.
McAvity says "surreptitious," while CLSA's Greed & Fear Author Christopher Wood calls it a "grandiose monetary experiment," which may be "unprecedented in recorded financial history." He believes that there is an "outright embrace of the eroding distinction between monetary and fiscal policy" and instead of moving away from its unconventional easing policies, "the central banks are moving further and further away from the exits."
But there is a much more important issue that has been raised because of Cyprus' and the euro system's "startling inequality of treatment," says CLSA's Russell Napier. He questions whether the euro system works in a political sense. He writes:
If … people of the system believe that the euro's sustenance necessitates the use of arbitrary power, resulting in unequal treatment, then they will conclude that the euro system is not worth having. The loss of democracy and the rule of law will outweigh whatever economic benefits euro membership may bring.
An avid sports enthusiast would translate this "loss of democracy and the rule of law" to a game where the referees are making unfair calls, adding rules and changing boundaries to control the outcome.

'Season of the Witch': A Dive into the Tumultuous Era of Heroes, Hippies, Druggies, Deadheads and Psycho Killers
David Talbot's book, Season of the Witch: Enchantment, Terror and Deliverance in the City of Love, is an amazing portrait and chronicle of the potent forces of political and social liberation that heated up in San Francisco, beginning in the late 1960s, and eventually boiled over, unleashing a shocking backlash that still feels hard to comprehend, today.
Talbot captures the high-speed velocity of the transformation crashing up against the deep roots of conservative resentment. The threats of change to a longstanding way of life were so powerful that they turned a public official, Dan White, into a psycho killer. White was able to wipe out Mayor George Moscone, and gay supervisor Harvey Milk, in a murder spree at City Hall — an act that was literally cheered on by members of the SF police department. As Talbot describes, Milk and Moscone "were everything White was not: charming, politically shrewd, sexual rambunctious, and comfortable in their own skins, the dynamic duo of San Francisco's progressive revolution." Dan White represented a past that some were desperately clinging to, and he stepped up to act out their fears and resentments.
The book reverberates through San Francisco neighborhoods that are iconic in the American cultural lore: Haight Ashbury, the Fillmore, the Castro and North Beach. The narrative is filled with dozens of unforgettable, larger-than-life characters, from heroes like Harvey Milk, to cultural icon Jerry Garcia, to killers like White, and mass murderers like Jim Jones.
Talbot's masterpiece covers one of the most intense 15-year periods in American history and includes the emergence of the gay liberation movement, the drug revolution — from good to bad -- the short-lived hippie explosion in the Haight, the sexual revolution San-Francisco style, including topless bars in North Beach, and the first organizing of a union for prostitutes. There was the emergence of the hugely influential SF music scene, which included Jerry Garcia, the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, Grace Slick and Jefferson Airplane. And the food revolution, whose Petri dish was Alice Water's Chez Panisse in Berkeley, but included Stars where Jeremiah Tower reigned
, and the venerable Zuni Café, which still attracts full houses night after night.
It was also a period of incredible darkness and horror, far beyond the White murder, including the mass murder of hundreds of mostly poor African American San Franciscans by James Jones in Guyana; the Symbionese Liberation Army and its crazed leader Cinque; the kidnapping of Patty Hearst; and the never-apprehended Zebra killer, who terrorized neighborhoods for years. Despite the avalanche of tragedies, I loved this book for its unabashed enthusiasm for the positive, creative and often mind-blowing side of the San Francisco revolution. I marvel at Talbot's dogged research and potent prose, which made the book such a great read.
I've known David Talbot since 1985, when he was an editor at Mother Jones magazine, and I was the publisher. I met with Talbot, along with my colleagues Jan Frel and Alyssa Figueroa, late this summer in his office in the classic building that houses Frances Coppola's film operations, as well as a number of small organizations, right at the foot of North Beach.
Don Hazen: Let's start with the all-important backlash question. Despite, or perhaps because of the powerful forces of change, some horrible forces were unleashed in the Bay Area, and then across the country. Was the backlash inevitable?
David Talbot: I think that is true. I quote Stuart Brand, who I think is a really important figure in San Francisco's cultural history, emerged with Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters during the acid test days; created the Whole Earth Catalogue and was kind of a bridge between hippie San Francisco and the digital future. I quote him saying, "You can't have a Ken Kesey without having a Charlie Manson. That, when everything is permitted, when everything is possible, that's what you have."

- Investigations of the geomorphologic and pedologic system of sedimentary vega deposits from Lanzarote (Canary Islands) supported by luminescence dating – important steps towards their palaeoclimatic interpretation (2007)
- On Lanzarote (Canary Islands/Spain), sequences similar to loess-palaeosol-sequences from other regions developed in dammed volcanic valleys during the Middle and Late Pleistocene. Based on former investigations, we assumed that these sequences could serve as palaeoclimate archives for the NW-African region, an area characterised by a lack of investigations from continuous terrestrial palaeoclimate archives. The material deposited in the valleys consists of Saharan dust as well as of local volcanic material. Due to their location in valley positions and adjacent strongly eroded slopes it is obvious that these sequences do not represent classic loess-palaeosol-archives. Instead, they must consist of a mixture of in situ aeolian fallout as well as of sediments derived from colluvial input from the slopes. Consequently, prior to a correct palaeoclimatic interpretation the geomorphologic character of the archives and the properties of their sediments must be analysed. Thus, in this study we intensively investigate the geomorphologic and pedologic system, combining geomorphologic mapping and quantitative GIS-calculations with sedimentological-pedological methods (grain size, XRD, rock magnetic und pedologic analyses as well as investigation of micromorphologic properties). Furthermore, we built up a chronostratigraphy using different luminescence-methods (quartz coarse- and fine grain-OSL, polymineral fine grain-IRSL). Fundamental investigations on the bleaching-behaviour of recent Saharan dust and colluvial sediments on Lanzarote demonstrate, that in spite of partial insufficient bleaching of the luminescence signal a dating of the valley-bottom sediments is possible. These datings were supported by a correlation of local kaolinite-contents with iron and kaolinite contents from nearby marine cores as well as a stratigraphic correlation between different profiles. Thus, we could establish a chronostratigraphy for the last 180 ka. We demonstrate that outcropped sediments were deposited almost continuously from the Middle Pleistocen until the Holocene, wheras the uppermost sections of the profiles consist of anthropogenic colluvia which can not be interpreted in a palaeoclimatic way. The alternation of reddish-clayey and yellowish-silty layers tracks changes of soil humidity on Lanzarote rather than variations of the composition of Saharan dust. Due to the colluvial dynamics of the valleys, reddish-silty layers in the valley bottoms are no palaeosoils sensu strictu but mainly consist of colluvial soil sediments originating from pedogenesis on the slopes. These soils as well as unweathered material were eroded and deposited with high frequency and low amplitude. Thus, their sedimentation age in the valley bottoms is close to the primary time of aeolian deposition on the slopes and the formation of pedogenetic properties. These findings allow a palaeoclimatic interpretation of the sediment sequences. We could demonstrate that glacials and stadials were characterised by higher soil moisture than interglacials and interstadials. When comparing our results with other palaeoclimatic studies from a broader region, we can show that the causes for periods of enhanced humidity were westerly cyclones using a more southern way than at recent, as well as lowered sea and air temperatures in the area of the Canary Islands. During some periods, soil humidity was possibly occasionally amplified by a northward advance of the African summer monsoon up to the latitude of Lanzarote. Although we are not able to directly derive palaeoprecipitation values from soil moisture, we can show that maximal precipitation values must have been in the the range of ca. 560 mm/a. Our results demonstrate that during most of the investigated period of the Late Quaternary the climate of Lanzarote was influenced by northern high latitude processes. Furthermore, during most of the investigated period the recent aridity of the island was somewhat mitigated.

Elderly bones fracture easily because over time, bone tissue becomes thin and brittle. Osteoporosis, the most common type of bone disease, occurs when the body doesn't form enough new bone, or when old bone is absorbed by the body.
While weight training, cardiovascular conditioning, stretching and balance exercises reduce the likelihood of bone fractures in people with osteoporosis, Jazzercise Founder and CEO Judi Sheppard Missett says in order to promote life long skeletal health, it's critical to establish physical activity habits in childhood.
Influential Impacts
A study reported in Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, shows that children who participate in higher levels of physical activity have greater bone mass growth. Impact loading through physical activity in childhood can decrease risk by 60 percent, and is one of the most powerful preventive strategies in the fight against osteoporosis.
Built to Last
We build the most bone when we are young, and reach peak bone mass in our late twenties and early thirties. Researchers found that one year after reaching peak bone mass, males who were active in childhood had 17 percent higher total body bone mass than their peers, and females were higher by 9 percent.
Window of Opportunity
Data indicates that nearly 40 percent of total young adult bone mass is achieved during the two years before, and two years after accelerated linear growth (when an item increases the exact same amount over the same time period i.e. if a bone is two inches long today, 4 inches long tomorrow, etc) . This means there is a specific period when the human body builds bone faster and better than any other time. The skeleton's response to loading is optimized during pre-puberty and early puberty stages.
Activity Type Matters
Jumping, running and competitive racquet sports are the most effective at improving bone mass in the spine and hips. Studies found that girls who ran two days a week for 75 minutes had up to 10 percent more bone mineral content than girls who did not.
To build hip strength and structure, all youth should participate in forty minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity every day. One hundred jumps from a 2-foot height, three times a week will build bone mass and structure. Participating in sports throughout childhood and adolescence will maximize bone mineral growth.
Long-term studies are needed to determine if the intentional bone building during childhood lasts through adulthood. If skeletal strength is proven to persist well into our thirties, we can add osteoporosis to the list of chronic conditions preventable through childhood physical activity.

Significant inhibition of the progression of
structural damage
Week 24
Patients receiving REMICADE® 5 mg/kg demonstrated greater inhibition of structural damage vs patients receiving placebo1,2
Week 54
The mean change from baseline was −0.94 in patients receiving REMICADE® 5 mg/kg vs 0.53 in patients who crossed over from placebo to REMICADE® 5 mg/kg at either Week 16 or Week 24 (P<0.001)2
*vdH-S=van der Heijde modified Sharp score. The total modified vdH-S score (0-528) is a composite score of structural damage that measures the number and size of joint erosions and the degree of joint space narrowing in the hands and feet.
IMPACT 2 (Induction and Maintenance Psoriatic Arthritis Clinical Trial 2): a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, phase 3 study of REMICADE® in 200 patients with active PsA for at least 6 months who had an inadequate response to DMARDs or NSAIDs. Patients had active articular disease (≥5 swollen and tender joints each), psoriatic target skin lesion (≥2 cm in diameter), and either CRP ≥1.5 mg/dL or morning stiffness lasting ≥45 minutes. Stable methotrexate (MTX) doses of ≤25 mg/week at study entry and stable oral corticosteroid doses equivalent to ≤10 mg/day of prednisone were permitted. During the 24-week, double-blind phase, patients received either REMICADE® 5 mg/kg (n=100) or placebo (n=100) at Weeks 0, 2, 6, 14, and 22. At Week 16, placebo patients with <10% improvement in swollen and tender joint counts were switched to active treatment and received REMICADE® 5 mg/kg at Weeks 16, 18, 22, 30, 38, and 46. At Week 24, all patients receiving placebo crossed over to active treatment and received REMICADE® 5 mg/kg (n=91) at Weeks 24, 26, 30, 38, and 46. Primary endpoints included the proportion of patients with
ACR 20 response at Week 14 and the change from baseline in total modified van der Heijde-Sharp (vdH-S) score at Week 24. Improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) was evaluated in psoriatic arthritis patients with baseline body surface area (BSA) ≥3% (n=87, placebo; n=83, REMICADE®).

REMICADE® is indicated for:Crohn's Disease
- Reducing signs and symptoms and inducing and maintaining clinical remission in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy
- Reducing the number of draining enterocutaneous and rectovaginal fistulas and maintaining fistula closure in adult patients with fistulizing CD

- Reducing signs and symptoms and inducing and maintaining clinical remission in pediatric patients 6 years of age and older with moderately to severely active UC who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy
- Reducing signs and symptoms, inhibiting the progression of structural damage, and improving physical function in patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in combination with methotrexate (MTX)
- Reducing signs and symptoms of active arthritis, inhibiting the progression of structural damage, and improving physical function in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA)
- Reducing signs and symptoms in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS)
- The treatment of adult patients with chronic severe (ie, extensive and/or disabling) plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy and when other systemic therapies are medically less appropriate
Patients treated with REMICADE® (infliximab) are at increased risk for developing serious infections that may lead to hospitalization or death. Most patients who developed these infections were taking concomitant immunosuppressants such as methotrexate or corticosteroids. Discontinue REMICADE® if a patient develops a serious infection or sepsis.
Reported infections include:
- Active tuberculosis (TB), including reactivation of latent TB. Patients frequently presented with disseminated or extrapulmonary disease. Patients should be tested for latent TB before and during treatment with REMICADE®.1,2 Treatment for latent infection should be initiated prior to treatment with REMICADE®.
- Invasive fungal infections, including histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis, candidiasis, aspergillosis, blastomycosis and pneumocystosis. Patients may present with disseminated, rather than localized, disease. Empiric anti-fungal therapy should be considered in patients at risk for invasive fungal infections who develop severe systemic illness.
- Bacterial, viral, and other infections due to opportunistic pathogens, including Legionella and Listeria.
The risks and benefits of treatment with REMICADE® should be carefully considered prior to initiating therapy in patients with chronic or recurrent infection. Closely monitor patients for the development of signs and symptoms of infection during and after treatment with REMICADE®, including the possible development of TB in patients who tested negative for latent TB infection prior to initiating therapy.
Risk of infection may be higher in patients greater than 65 years of age, pediatric patients, patients with co-morbid conditions and/or patients taking concomitant immunosuppressant therapy. In clinical trials, other serious infections observed in patients treated with REMICADE® included pneumonia, cellulitis, abscess, and skin ulceration.
Lymphoma and other malignancies, some fatal, have been reported in children and adolescent patients treated with TNF blockers, including REMICADE®. Approximately half of these cases were lymphomas, including Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The other cases represented a variety of malignancies, including rare malignancies that are usually associated with immunosuppression and malignancies that are not usually observed in children and adolescents. The malignancies occurred after a median of 30 months after the first dose of therapy. Most of the patients were receiving concomitant immunosuppressants.
Postmarketing cases of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma, a rare type of T-cell lymphoma, have been reported in patients treated with TNF blockers, including REMICADE®. These cases have had a very aggressive disease course and have been fatal. All reported REMICADE® cases have occurred in patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis and the majority were in adolescent and young adult males. All of these patients had received treatment with azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine concomitantly with REMICADE® at or prior to diagnosis. Carefully assess the risks and benefits of treatment with REMICADE®, especially in these patient types.
In clinical trials of all TNF inhibitors, more cases of lymphoma were observed compared with controls and the expected rate in the general population. However, patients with Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, or plaque psoriasis may be at higher risk for developing lymphoma. In clinical trials of some TNF inhibitors, including REMICADE®, more cases of other malignancies were observed compared with controls. The rate of these malignancies among patients treated with REMICADE® was similar to that expected in the general population whereas the rate in control patients was lower than expected. Cases of acute and chronic leukemia have been reported with postmarketing TNF-blocker use. As the potential role of TNF inhibitors in the development of malignancies is not known, caution should be exercised when considering treatment of patients with a current or a past history of malignancy or other risk factors such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Melanoma and Merkel cell carcinoma have been reported in patients treated with TNF-blocker therapy, including REMICADE®. Periodic skin examination is recommended for all patients, particularly those with risk factors for skin cancer.
REMICADE® is contraindicated in patients with moderate to severe (NYHA Class III/IV) congestive heart failure (CHF) at doses greater than 5 mg/kg. Higher mortality rates at the 10 mg/kg dose and higher rates of cardiovascular events at the 5 mg/kg dose have been observed in these patients. REMICADE® should be used with caution and only after consideration of other treatment options. Patients should be monitored closely. Discontinue REMICADE® if new or worsening CHF symptoms appear. REMICADE® should not be (re)administered to patients who have experienced a severe hypersensitivity reaction or to patients with hypersensitivity to murine proteins or other components of the product.
TNF inhibitors, including REMICADE®, have been associated with reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in patients who are chronic carriers. Some cases were fatal. Patients should be tested for HBV infection before initiating REMICADE®. For patients who test positive, consult a physician with expertise in the treatment of hepatitis B. Exercise caution when prescribing REMICADE® for patients identified as carriers of HBV and monitor closely for active HBV infection during and following termination of therapy with REMICADE®. Discontinue REMICADE® in patients who develop HBV reactivation and initiate antiviral therapy with appropriate supportive treatment. Exercise caution when considering resumption of REMICADE® and monitor patients closely.
Severe hepatic reactions, including acute liver failure, jaundice, hepatitis, and cholestasis have been reported rarely in patients receiving REMICADE® postmarketing. Some cases were fatal or required liver transplant. Aminotransferase elevations were not noted prior to discovery of liver injury in many cases. Patients with symptoms or signs of liver dysfunction should be evaluated for evidence of liver injury. If jaundice and/or marked liver enzyme elevations (eg, ≥5 times the upper limit of normal) develop, REMICADE® should be discontinued, and a thorough investigation of the abnormality should be undertaken.
Cases of leukopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and pancytopenia (some fatal) have been reported. The causal relationship to REMICADE® therapy remains unclear. Exercise caution in patients who have ongoing or a history of significant hematologic abnormalities. Advise patients to seek immediate medical attention if they develop signs and symptoms of blood dyscrasias or infection. Consider discontinuation of REMICADE® in patients who develop significant hematologic abnormalities.
REMICADE® has been associated with hypersensitivity reactions that differ in their time of onset. Acute urticaria, dyspnea, and hypotension have occurred in association with infusions of REMICADE®. Serious infusion reactions including anaphylaxis were infrequent. Medications for the treatment of hypersensitivity reactions should be available.
TNF inhibitors, including REMICADE®, have been associated in rare cases with CNS manifestation of systemic vasculitis, seizure, and new onset or exacerbation of CNS demyelinating disorders, including multiple sclerosis and optic neuritis, and peripheral demyelinating disorders, including Guillain-Barré syndrome. Exercise caution when considering REMICADE® in patients with these disorders and consider discontinuation if these disorders develop.
Treatment with REMICADE® may result in the formation of autoantibodies and, rarely, in development of a lupus-like syndrome. Discontinue treatment if symptoms of a lupus-like syndrome develop.
In clinical trials, the most common REMICADE® adverse reactions occurring in >10% of patients included infections (eg, upper respiratory, sinusitis, and pharyngitis),
infusion-related reactions, headache, and abdominal pain.
Concomitant use of REMICADE® with anakinra, abatacept, tocilizumab, or other biologics used to treat the same conditions as REMICADE® is not recommended because of the possibility of an increased risk of infection. Care should be taken when switching from one biologic to another, since overlapping biological activity may further increase the risk of infection.
Live vaccines or therapeutic infectious agents should not be given with REMICADE® due to the possibility of clinical infections, including disseminated infections.
Bring pediatric patients up to date with all vaccinations prior to initiating REMICADE®. Exercise caution in the administration of live vaccines to infants born to female patients treated with REMICADE® during pregnancy.

In the past few years, the US Supreme Court has begun to reshape how juveniles are treated when they commit criminal offenses. These cases (all 5-4 decisions) address both pre-adjudication and sentencing issues and illustrate the tensions that exist in how the justice system deals with adolescent criminal behavior. This course will examine the foundations of the juvenile justice system, how it has and is being reshaped by the US Supreme Court, and how Washington and other states treat juveniles in both their juvenile and adult criminal systems. The course will also discuss who gets brought into the juvenile justice system and what their prospects are once they have been processed as juvenile delinquents or young offenders.
