and has an incredible history, having been one of the first domesticated grains.
So now I've forgotten all about farro and I'm throwing my allegiance back to barley. Yes, I'm fickle like that. I always have barley in my cupboard to make Black Bean, Corn and Barley Burritos anyway.
My final recipe is actually quite different from the original because I just can't stick to a recipe. (There are always more vegetables that can be added!) But in case you want to compare, here it is.
Barley, Green Bean, and Chicken with Goat Cheese
loosely adapted from Jeanne Thiel Kelley in Bon Appetit
1 cup barley (find it near the dried beans in the market)
1 chicken breast
1 small onion finely diced
2 cloves garlic
1 carrot, finely diced
1 cup of green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup red bell pepper, finely diced
1 cup corn
1/4 cup of white wine
2 oz goat cheese
zest of half a lemon
salt and pepper to taste
pinch of chile flakes
handful of chopped parsley
Cook barley according to package directions.
Meanwhile, cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a large skillet saute the chicken over high heat quickly with a little oil until cooked and remove from pan, set aside. Add a little more oil and then the garlic and onions over medium heat, saute one minute. Add the carrots and green beans, saute one minute. Add the bell pepper and corn, saute one minute. Add the chile flakes and wine and cook one or two minutes, or until reduced.
Now add the chicken back to the pan and follow with the cooked barley. Toss it all together and add the goat cheese, lemon zest and season with salt and pepper to taste. Top it off with the parsley to make it pretty. This should make 2 big servings, or leave out the chicken and it's a side dish for 4.

Hey Sarah, if you are still looking for Farro, you can try http://www.nicolesgourmetfoods.com/ They are located in south pasadena, but i'm sure she's shipping too. Best of luck!ReplyDelete
I had a nice cold farro salad awhile back at a really nice french restaurant. It is tasty stuff. I found farro at a specialty store, in reality it is an inexpensive grain. You think we could find it in more places.ReplyDelete

Wyoming: The Equality State?
A Call for Increased Accessibility to the Legal SystemAmong the State's Underserved PopulationsThe people of Wyoming pride themselves on the state's motto – "The Equality State" – which was adopted by the state because of the rights Wyoming women have historically enjoyed. Wyoming women were the first in the nation to vote, serve on juries and hold public office. The question today is; have we as a state lived up to our challenging motto? It is indisputable that notions such as fairness, justice, equality, and the right to the pursuit of happiness are deeply engrained in our national culture and state culture, and in our political discourse. Consider the second provision of Wyoming's Constitution: "In their inherent right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, all members of the human race are equal." Because of the appeals made to such notions two centuries ago by the Protestant European males who founded this nation, and thereafter throughout the nation's history by people of color, women, the indigent poor, immigrants, and members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual & transgender (LGBT) community who have challenged America to live up to these ideals, we have become accustomed to the loose use of the terms "equality" and "justice."Quite often, we discuss equality and justice without considering the significance and the critical implications of these terms. Those of us in the legal community do it daily, as our working reality concerns the business of equality and justice, regardless of whether we take time to consider what that may actually mean with respect to our ethical duties and obligations as professionals. From the onset, any discussion pertaining to equality begs the question: What is equality? In what context are we discussing equality? Are we talking about equality of outcome or equality of opportunity? Are we discussing political, economic, social, or cultural equality, or some other brand of equality that is not so frequently debated? While this discussion could take multiple directions in consideration of whether Wyoming has in fact lived up to its motto, the scope of this article will be narrowed to considering accessibility to the state's legal system among the state's underserved populations, particularly the indigent, victims of domestic violence, and the state's immigrant population. For if equality means "rights, treatment, quantity, or value equal to all others in a given group," how can equality exist at all when individuals do not even have access to the system that promises it? In a society in which it is so expensive to seek out justice and equality, accessibility to the legal system should invariably be a starting point in our discussions on equality, regardless of whether we are speaking of equality of outcome, equality of opportunity, or any other issue relevant to the ideals we profess to uphold. Let's focus on the accessibility of Wyoming's legal system because, as lawyers, judges, politicians, law students, and other professionals who influence the state's legal system, we not only have the ability, but the duty, to work to increase access to the state's legal system among those who are underserved. The state of accessibility among Wyoming's underserved populationsThe American Bar Association asserts that "Today, despite the combined efforts of LSC-[Legal Services Corporation] funded programs, private attorneys and bar associations, more than 80 percent of the basic civil legal needs of the poor are not being met." While the LSC received half the funding it did in 1980, the number of people living in poverty increased by 5.74% between 1990 to 2000, leaving 43 million Americans financially eligible for federally funded legal assistance based on income guidelines of 125% or below the federal poverty level.Despite the small and spacious population of Wyoming, the demand for publicly funded legal assistance among Wyomingites is no different than that of the citizens of other states. In Wyoming, there are only two providers of civil legal aid to the poor: Wyoming Legal Services, Inc. (WLS) and the U.W. College of Law Legal Services Program (UWLSP), both having income guidelines of 125% or below the federal poverty level. About 75,000 Wyomingites meet this requirement.Unfortunately, while many Wyomingites, particularly victims of domestic violence, are in need of family law-related legal services, the Wyoming branch of the federally funded LSC does not regularly provide legal representation for family law matters, including child representation or protection order hearings. While there are limited resources available to the many Wyomingites who are eligible for legal services, there are greater concerns over the funding of these programs. Most of the funding for these programs comes from federal grants and/or funding from the state's IOLTA program. Some of the funding for these programs, like the federal grant that supports the operations of the domestic violence component of UWLSP, is set to expire within the next year, leaving the future of the program in question. Unlike the overwhelming majority of other jurisdictions in the U.S., there is no state funding for legal services programs in the state of Wyoming.In addition to the general need for increased access to legal services among the state's indigent population, survivors of domestic violence and the state's immigrant population are greatly in need of increased access to legal services. A recent study found that women in the poorest households experience seven times the abuse rate of the highest-income households. The isolation that women face in rural communities in Wyoming only compounds the problem. Despite the barriers these women face in obtaining legal services and the barriers the legal community faces in helping domestic violence survivors obtain protective orders, custody of their children, child support, and other public assistance, this study also found that access to legal services is one of the primary factors contributing to a 21% decrease nationally in the reported incidence of domestic violence between 1993 and 1998. In other words, extending access to legal services among survivors of domestic violence is a worthy investment. Dona Playton, Assistant Director of the UW Domestic Violence Legal Assistance Project and the professor of the "Domestic Violence and the Law" course offered at UW's law school, insists that "Providing comprehensive, holistic legal assistance to victims of domestic violence promotes self-sufficiency and, in turn, contributes towards other statewide economic goals." When asked for three recommendations that would increase the quality of services to battered women in Wyoming, Mrs. Playton suggested: 1) Increased, publicly funded training opportunities for attorneys, law enforcement agents, judges, and other legal actors; 2) increased opportunities for women in the work force in an effort to close the gender gap between men and women in the state; and 3) the establishment of a statewide network to provide free or reduced fee legal assistance to victims of domestic violence.The state's immigrant population is also in need of increased access to legal services. Wyoming's foreign-born population increased 47% during the 1990s. Between 1990 and 2000, Wyoming gained 3,558 immigrants, bringing the total number of foreign-born residents in the state to 11,000. Over 38% of Wyoming's immigrant population has arrived in the state since 1990. Many of these individuals, particularly Latino immigrants, do not speak English, and face cultural and language barriers with respect to obtaining quality legal services. Because the immigrant population is largely ignored and overlooked in general, few law firms or lawyers actually have the capacity to adequately address the legal needs of this population, usually because they don't staff bilingual attorneys, nor have established relationships with individuals or organizations that can assist in translation and other basic services for which they lack access. Setting party politics aside, it is pragmatic and practical to understand that the majority of the state's immigrants are here to stay, and that more will come until our nation finds another way to fulfill the demand for cheap, often dangerous, and otherwise unwanted labor these immigrants provide. Integrating them into society, which includes extending to them access to the legal system, is not only in their interests, but in the best interests of our society as a whole. Calling Wyoming's legal actors to action: What we can do to extend accessibility to the legal system among Wyoming's underserved populationsFollowing are recommendations for law firms and lawyers, judges, law students, legislators, and other professionals whose work influences Wyoming's legal system. It is only through a collective, multi-faceted approach that we can truly be successful in extending access to Wyoming's legal system to those most in need of legal services. Law firms and lawyersTo begin with, law firms should establish policies that encourage pro bono work on behalf of underserved populations. Lawyers themselves should also seek opportunities to engage in pro bono work on behalf of underserved populations. According to a recent ABA survey, 66% of U.S. lawyers do pro bono work. ABA president Robert Grey Jr., ABA emphasizes that "Despite the worthy efforts of legal services and pro bono lawyers, indigent people don't have adequate access to justice."Positively, over 70% of Wyoming's attorneys perform at least five hours of front-end pro bono work, including substantially-reduced legal services, which is above the national percentage. However, it is clear that more can be done to extend accessibility to the state's underserved populations. The offering of greater incentives for such work and a more community-based approach to the practice of law on the part of law firms will increase the percentage of Wyoming's attorneys who offer such services, as well as the number of pro bono hours offered to underserved populations. Law firms and solo practitioners should also work to establish partnerships with non-profits and other organizations, as well as individuals, who provide services to underserved populations. For example, law firms can network with organizations and agencies that provide counseling, emotional care, and other services to victims of domestic violence. Law firms that do not have bilingual attorneys can also create partnerships with organizations and individuals who are willing to interpret for Spanish-only speaking clients. When law firms are aware of community resources, and those providing community resources are aware of the services law firms are willing to provide, it is more likely that individuals in need of services will be properly referred so that their needs can be adequately addressed.Law firms, particularly in more diverse communities, should strongly consider hiring ethnic minority attorneys, bi-lingual attorneys, female attorneys, attorneys who are members of the LGBT community, and attorneys otherwise genuinely and sincerely interested in helping underserved populations. Lawyers themselves become informed about the issues that confront Wyoming's underserved. As Wyoming's population grows and becomes more heterogeneous, the need for culturally competent attorneys will become more evident. Law firms should also engage in community outreach to educate underserved populations about the services available to them; not only legal-related services, but also other services provided by community organizations and other agencies. Such outreach will not only do a service to the ideals of justice and equality, but will also benefit law firms in the long run, both financially and professionally, as outreach to untapped communities creates future legal and other business opportunities. Although poverty is typically pervasive among underserved populations, many people from disadvantaged backgrounds will move up the social ladder, become successful in their own right, and likely need legal services for a variety of reasons throughout the course of their lives. Individuals from underserved populations do not forget those who lend a hand in times of need. Law firms and solo practitioners seriously interested in addressing the needs of the underserved as a routine part of their practice should consider community lawyering strategies such as those proposed by Rose Cuison Villazor in a recent article in the New York University Journal of Legislation and Public Policy 2005. Community lawyering – a term apparently coined by Villazor, who considers herself a community lawyer – is a "social change strategy" that "focuses on engaging lawyers to de-emphasize litigation as the primary tool for achieving social justice. Instead, community lawyering encourages lawyers to critically and creatively examine non-traditional forms of advocacy such as organizing and other grassroots actions as a way of addressing the legal and non-legal problems of their clients. Community lawyering "enables community members to develop the skills and knowledge needed to challenge future discriminatory practices and policies," that serve as barriers to underserved populations. Advocacy strategies affiliated with community lawyering include organizing, community education, media outreach, petition drives, public demonstrations, lobbying, and economic development that will provide long-term benefits for underserved populations.Those considering engaging in community lawyering should be aware that a major limitation with respect to community lawyering strategies is that they may not have as far-reaching of an effect as litigation. However, it is arguable that if lawyers and other actors in the legal community are doing their part in their own particular community, such work may be more beneficial than continuing to focus solely on litigation alone, which may or may not reap the benefits sought on a state or national scale.JudgesIn addition to educating themselves on issues that affect underserved populations, judges should encourage attorneys to educate themselves on such issues. Judges are the stewards of the legal system, and as such should encourage knowledge and competence among the legal system's actors, especially on issues that affect underserved populations, as they are most in need of the knowledge and expertise that lawyers possess. Judges should also seek to be visibly involved in the community. As symbols of the legal community, judges' presence and involvement at community events that are attended by underserved populations sends a message to them about the accessibility of the legal system. Law studentsLaw students, like lawyers and judges, should seek to educate themselves about the legal needs of the state's underserved populations. In addition to taking courses that prepare one for a financially successful practice of law, students should also consider taking courses that will help them prepare for a successful career of public service. Along with the professional and financial benefits that flow from obtaining a J.D., there is also an inherent duty to the public that flows from obtaining such an education, as choosing a career in law naturally involves a pledge to pursue justice and equality. Law students interested in serving the legal needs of the state's underserved populations while still in school should also consider internships with UW's legal services clinics. Although a time-intensive commitment, Playton, who supervises UW's Domestic Violence and ASUW Student Legal Services clinics stresses that "[l]aw students are one of Wyoming's strongest assets for providing legal services to indigent clients statewide. They represent an enormous reservoir of time, energy, and enthusiasm."Legislators and other politiciansWyoming's legislators and other politicians should strongly consider advocating for funding and other initiatives that support Wyoming's legal services programs. Significant pro bono contributions are being made by law firms and private practitioners throughout the state. However, as recognized by the ABA, "a well-funded federal legal services program is essential to leverage other resources–human and financial–to help meet the legal needs of the poor." It is time that the state's legal services programs, which have earned the respect of the state's legal community, as well as the respect of the broader community as a whole, receive the state funding they need to continue to provide quality legal services to the people of Wyoming. Other professionals whose work affects the legal systemSocial workers, health care workers, and others whose work touches the legal system should educate themselves about accessibility issues, as well as legal assistance programs that extend access to underserved populations. They should also show support for legal assistance programs by referring individuals to such programs when appropriate.Other professionals who work either directly or indirectly with the legal system should also seek to develop ethical working relationships with attorneys, law firms, and other organizations that seek to extend access to the legal system. This is especially important for physicians and other health care professionals, who often see themselves at odds with the legal community. Providing quality services to underserved populations often involves the provision of various types of resources from multiple sources. Working together makes it more likely that underserved populations will receive the services they need. While legal actors in Wyoming's legal community are making substantial contributions to the state's underserved populations; lawyers, judges, politicians, law students, and other professionals who consciously choose to make a greater commitment to extending accessibility to the underserved, and who choose to follow some of proposed recommendations, will contribute substantially to increasing accessibility to the state's legal system. Undoubtedly, to self-identify as the "The Equality State" is one thing, but to live up to such a claim with respect to legal accessibility is quite another. While the task of seeking to extend accessibility, so as to provide every conceivable person in need of legal services with the services they need, is daunting, it is a worthwhile endeavor. As suggested by Paul Marvy and Debra Gardner in a recent article titled A Civil Right to Counsel for the Poor, "Poverty should not mean having to surrender vital legal rights. If our justice system conditions the rights to family, housing, and food upon having enough wealth to afford a lawyer, there is no justice in it."Although visions of equality and justice are often lost in the realities of inequality that plague our society, striving to live up to the motto of "The Equality State" isn't such a bad challenge.

Poll: Mainers support gun restrictions
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Mainers own more guns than most Americans but also are more supportive of restrictions on semi-automatic rifles and high-capacity magazines, according to a poll released Sunday.
The poll commissioned by The Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram said 79 percent of Mainers support some restrictions on gun ownership. A third of those respondents said their views were influenced by the shootings last month at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.

I was referred to Carmina from a business service I use, and I have to say she has been one of the best finds we've had since starting our new branding agency business last year. She has not only provided straightforward, helpful and timely advice, she has been appropriately frugal with her time, which has been much appreciated as we've gotten rolling. She has been collaborative as we've worked through legal needs as we've set up our business, and also been a great source of referrals for other professional services. We very much look forward to working with Carmina as our business grows, and expect her to continue to help us in a number of ways.
I am going through a nasty divorce and Attorney Tessitore has made it as manageable as possible. I really feel like I have someone in my corner. She gets back to me immediately, handles opposing counsel professionally and is the reason I will make it through this divorce. I really feel that we work as a team. She has written outstanding briefs, successfully argued motions before the judge and always has my best interests at heart.

First produced by Johann Friedrich Böttger in 1708, white hard-paste porcelain became one of the most important materials used in pipe-making.
Some of the first inventories at the Meissen manufactory list hundreds of pipe bowls made of red Böttger stoneware. Initially the shape of the Dutch clay pipes was used to produce pipes in one piece with an integral pipe stem. Soon this form was followed by the so-called 'Gesteck' pipes or pipes in parts, where only the bowl with its figurative decoration was made of porcelain and the stem made out of wood. A very popular motif was that of the 'janizary', a Turk wearing a turban, which appears in the inventories from 1711. Those master craftsmen who had been involved in the production of the porcelain tabatières or snuffboxes at Meissen are also mentioned in connection with pipe bowls. Johann Joachim Kändler for example noted in 1743: "Several new tobacco bowls with various faces, corrected and passed on for moulds to be made." 1
The porcelain manufactories at Sevrès and Vienna also produced porcelain pipe bowls.
However, porcelain is not in fact a very suitable material for making pipes. The bowl quickly became red hot, thus causing large amounts of condensate to be produced. These drawbacks led to the development of various inbuilt cooling systems and also necessitated the use of a reservoir in which the condensate could collect. After use this reservoir could be unscrewed and the condensate poured away.
Despite its poor smoking qualities the porcelain pipe experienced a heyday during the Biedermeier era. Its attraction lay in the colourful painted motifs which provided unending possibilities for decoration.
With the development of transfer printing techniques it soon became possible to mass-produce porcelain pipes at a relatively low price. In contrast to the expensive meerschaum pipe it was thus easily affordable for all social classes. Almost every occupational group had its own porcelain pipes with appropriate ornamental motifs. Decorated with landscapes or coats of arms they also made an ideal souvenir for the tourist trade which was beginning to develop at that time. As they could also be decorated with personal dedications or mottoes porcelain pipes were popular as gifts. They were also extremely well suited to displaying the smoker's political affiliation, as illustrated by the Viennese student pipes from 1848, the year of the revolution. In the Pre-March period the porcelain pipe came to express revolutionary opinions and was smoked by students on the street in defiance of the prohibition on smoking in public places.
Naturally the pipe makers did not hesitate to use well-known figures from public life to decorate their wares, a circumstance bemoaned by Goethe: "I'm to be had just like Old Fritz on pipe bowls and cups." 2
The 'Regimental' or reservist's pipe complete with regimental and company number which soldiers acquired at the end of their military service was often equipped with ornately turned horn stems decorated with mother-of-pearl inlay, some of which were more than one metre long.

MOPTI, Mali (AP) Ś Bawba Mint Baba AhmedÆs dress-making teacher singled her out in front of the class, telling her: ōYou look like a rebel.ö Others threatened to slit her throat, she says, drawing a finger across her neck.
Now the 29-year-old has dropped out of school and spends her days hiding inside her mud-walled home with her mother and two sisters, fearing retaliation from those who accuse her of being an Islamist simply because she is Arab.
ōWe are truly afraid,ö she says, tugging at the azure-colored scarf that covers her head and hides her light skin as she sat cross-legged in the shade on a woven mat. ōThey say, `YouÆre the same color as the ones who have attacked us.öÆ
As the French and Malian forces oust al-Qaida-linked militants from the towns of Gao, Timbuktu and Kidal, ethnic tensions exacerbated by months of political upheaval are putting MaliÆs minorities in danger.
Most members of the Islamic groups that took over last year are from Tuareg and Arab ethnic groups. Northerners living in the central and southern parts of Mali say they have faced discrimination and fear of reprisals by those who blame the countryÆs problems on anyone who looks Tuareg or Arab.
Less than 15 percent of MaliÆs population of 16 million are Tuareg or Arab, and the vast majority live across northern Mali.
Activists also fear that as tens of thousands return home to the north, there may be more such attacks against those suspected of links to Ansar Dine or NMLA Ś a secular Tuareg rebel group.
ōGiven its history and this high level of ethnic tension, weÆre really concerned that as local populations who suffered tremendously under the NMLA and the Islamists return to their towns and villages in the north that the incidents of reprisals could dramatically increase,ö said Corinne Dufka, a senior researcher with Human Rights Watch.
The U.N. special adviser on the prevention of genocide, Adama Dieng, also expressed concern.
ōWhile the liberation of towns once under the control of the rebel and extremist groups has brought hope to the populations of northern Mali, I am deeply concerned at the risk of reprisal attacks against ethnic Tuareg and Arab civilians,ö he said in New York on Friday.
Already in the town of Gao, Dufka said, there have been reports that people have targeted the homes of individuals who either housed Islamist fighters or are accused of collaborating with them, notably Arab traders.
And in the market of Timbuktu, more than a dozen shops owned by the cityÆs Arab population have been gutted, pillaged by the population because the townÆs Arab citizens were suspected of having been allied with the Islamists.
Malian military forces are also facing accusations of targeting Tuaregs and Arabs especially in the last month.
International human rights group have expressed concern about soldiers attacking civilians, including violence directed toward Tuaregs and those suspected of links to the Islamists. One witness told The Associated Press last month that he saw soldiers kill three men in Sevare, including an older man with a beard who had been reading the Quran at a bus stop.
The countryÆs current chaos began a year ago when Tuaregs from the north who have long sought autonomy launched another rebellion.
Backlash against Tuaregs and other light-skinned northerners soon began, and only intensified after radical Islamists took advantage of the chaos to seize northern Mali and implement a harsh version of Islamic law known as Shariah.
While most of MaliÆs Arab community lives in the north, the family of Bawba Ahmed, the woman who dropped out of her class, has lived in the central town of Mopti since 1963 Ś almost as long as Mali has been an independent nation.
Last year, Bawba fled to neighboring Burkina Faso with her mother and sisters 21-year-old Aguida and 33-year-old Mounaicha out of concern for their safety in Mopti.
They rented an apartment there for about a month, but decided to come back as money ran low and those in Mopti reassured them things were getting better back home.
Now they rarely venture outside, fearing attacks from unruly Malian soldiers patrolling the area or neighbors who view them with suspicion.
ōThere are certain neighbors who are kind and have protected us and others who have not,ö says Fatouma Arby, the 72-year-old matriarch of the family, dressed in a black robe and headscarf.
The four unmarried women survive off only their small herd of livestock Ś including two sheep tied to trees out front and a pile of baby goats sleeping in the shade that they can sell one by one for cash.
ōI just want people to know I have nothing to do with the Islamists,ö Bawba says softly as her sister Aguida prepares tea. ōI just want to live in peace.ö
Associated Press writer Baba Ahmed contributed to this report.

Throughout much of the 20th century, it was an open question in astronomy as to what the universe looked like on the largest observable scales. Were galaxies and galaxy clusters distributed uniformly throughout space, or was there a pattern? Thanks to galaxy surveys we know that, on large scales, the matter distribution of the universe is clumpy instead of smooth. Through these surveys we observe directly the distribution of luminous matter like stars, gas, and galaxies. However, luminous matter comprises only a small fraction of the matter in the universe (17%), the rest is dark matter which interacts via gravity but does not absorb and emit electromagnetic radiation like normal matter. Theoretical simulations of dark matter cosmologies firmly predict that there is a dark matter backbone to the cosmic web, with filaments of dark matter stretching between clusters of galaxies, though has not yet been a robust detection of a dark matter filament, until now.
It's a fact of the universe that most stars are members of a binary system. However, our knowledge of stellar evolution has most thoroughly treated the case of a single, isolated star evolving according to its own schedule, dictated by the well-understood equations of stellar structure. What happens when the binary stars have tight enough orbits to influence each other?
Any photon with a wavelength shorter than 912 angstroms (the Lyman limit) will ionize neutral hydrogen by raising the atom's electron from the ground state to an unbound state at infinity. From measurements of quasar absorption spectra, we know that the reionization of the intergalactic medium from its previously neutral state (at redshifts greater than 7) to the highly ionized state we observe today was complete by redshift of ~7. However, we still do not know which sources were responsible for producing the ionizing photons.
Sounds like a simple question. When you go out and look at the stars at night with your naked eye, you might be able to pretty easily sort out which stars are the brightest, which are the faintest, and come up with some ranking of them for those in between. Now, do this with telescopes…
I'm sure you've heard the expression "5 hours in the library can save 5 months in the lab." It's true. Productive scientists are aware of what other scientists have done before them, that way they may "stand on the shoulders of giants" so that they might see farther. Linking datasets to papers improves the usability of previously published research and is one major way to increase the overall productivity of the scientific field.

Association of Prosecuting AttorneysJuly 24, 2012
Longtime Broward prosecutor Satz faces rare re-election fight
This time, voters will have say in Mike Satz's title defense
The year was 2000, and Adam Balkan was an idealistic young prosecutor who thought he could do a better job than his boss. So he decided to do something nobody had ever done - run against incumbent Broward State Attorney Mike Satz. "I was 31 - I knew everything then," Balkan told me this month. He lost, getting nearly 34 percent of the vote. But he said he achieved his goal, rattling Satz and spurring him to make changes in the office."Sometimes the winning's not in the winning, but in the running," said Balkan, 43, of Parkland, now a civil attorney based in Boca Raton. That could be the battlecry of two challengers taking on Satz this election cycle, Democrat Chris Mancini and Republican Jim Lewis. Both are local criminal defense attorneys and former prosecutors who are critical of Satz. They complain Satz is too hard on low-level drug offenders and too soft on public corruption, a tag his office has been shedding in recent years with a string of convictions and arrests. Just making Satz sweat a little on thecampaign trail might be victory enough.

Wikidata Phase 2 In Full Swing
In December the Semantic Web Blog spoke with Wikidata project director Denny Vrandecic about progress on Phase 1 of the work to create a free knowledge base about the world that can be read and edited by humans and machines (see story here). At the time, Vrandecic explained that January would begin the roll-out of language-by-language editions – first up were Hungarian, Hebrew and Italian – on the Wikipedias.
Last week brought another language on board, as Wikidata Phase 1 went live on English Wikipedia, with Wikidata language links supplementing locally-hosted ones there too. March 6 should see deployment to the Wikipedias that do not have language links.
In an important update, Phase 2 of the overall effort to centralize access to and management of structured data – which was in development as Phase 1 progressed – saw its first fruits for use on Wikidata.org (not yet on Wikipedia) earlier this month: Infoboxes.

A rendering of a canned-vegetable Burns Tower
CANstruction: Building Burns Tower with canned vegetables to help Stockton's Emergency Food BankParticipate in this unique food drive, held in conjunction with the Stockton Asparagus Festival
As part of a service event, held in conjuntion with the Stockton Asparagus Festival - April 27 to April 29 - a team of local architects is building a canned-vegetable version of Burns Tower, and University of the Pacific is helping.
CANstruction is a unique food drive in which architects, builders and other volunteers create sculptures made of canned and boxed goods, which later are collected and donated to the Emergency Food Bank.
Pacific is helping to sponsor the event, and also is helping collect food. To build Burns Tower, WMB Architects needs 1,800 cans of vegetables: Specifically, cans that are 4.25 to 4.5 inches tall, holding about 15 ounces. (Cans with labels that show 14.5 or 15.25 ounces are OK too). For the base of the tower, we need boxed rice or pasta products, such as Rice-A-Roni or Kraft Macaroni & Cheese. Food is needed by the week of April 16. Find collection bins near the information desk at the DeRosa University Center and at the Vereschagin Alumni House.
For information, contact Jennifer Torres Siders at 946-3134 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Looks awful on my IPad
Here's my opinions:
Lose the full-stop in the header.
Some of the text is too close to the edge of it's panel.
Lose the text centering in the black panels on Home page and Services page, and anywhere else with blocks of text or lists.
The panels are different styles, colours, corners, no corners, wide, not as wide.
On the Home page: "The only thing HighTechRec.....(all the way thru to).....back from extinction" all sounds a bit naff imho.
The YouTube link goes to an empty channel, which is an improvement to what you had before.
The 't' icon, is that supposed to be Twitter, does nothing.
3 steps ahead of the competition? Really? How?
Is advancements a real word?
And do you really have to start a new thread every few days for your website critique?

Overall, it's not terrible but I think the shades of gray you use could be more contrasted, mainly the background could be lighter. My main issue is the navigation and the use of checkmarks for links. If you have to include instructions to show the user how to navigate your site, it could probably be improved. Think of it this way, in the home page, you set the expectation that checkmarks are clickable links, yet elsewhere in the page, you use them how users normally interpret lists with checkmarked items. At the very least, make it so that the text label is clickable so they don't have to only click on the check mark. On another note, many of these links refer to a common page, why not just have those as available options under the "Services" drop down menu. It makes it seem like each of these links have dedicated webpage and users won't see until they actually check a bunch of your links. I click on "Macbook Laptop Repairs" but I see a generic Hardware section when I expected to see Macbook specific things.
Next, the navigation of the internal pages is inconsistent. I click on a check mark then you essentially force the user to hit the back button or scroll to the bottom of the page and use a navigation mechanism that is more appropriate for tabs or wizards. You have the same issue with the buttons in these internal pages. Only the > is clickable on the stylized button or a very small portion of the button is actually clickable.

Rank 5 Staff:
Additional Notes
- The complete Fusion chain to Divine Staff uses just 9 ingredients, 2 of which provide no bonus as they only drop from chests. The 7 remaining are the Necromonicon and Earth Emblem of the final fusion, and 5 Darkness Crystals. Hence a Divine Staff +15 requires at least a True Crystal Rod +7, though higher is recommended.
- The Divine Staff's name in the Japanese version of Recettear is "Natural Disaster" (天変地異).
- Similar to its role in Recettear, it is also the ultimate magical staff in Chantelise, EasyGameStation's previous (and CarpeFulgur's next) game.
- Due to its base price exceeding his budget, this is the only item on Caillou's likes list that he cannot select from a counter; consequently the only way to sell it to him at base price is as part of an order for weapons.
- As orders do not count for an item's record sale value, the only way to get its highest sold price to match or exceed its base price is to sell one to someone other than Caillou.

Least Tern > Workshops > Teach Yourself > But not Least
But not Least...
A School Tool
"The Kids will do it all"
I was walking Little Bear on President Street this afternoon. Suddenly, a magnified voice said, "I'll take your money." We stopped, we looked, and we listened. Then we heard, "I really want your XXXXX." Little Bear thought it was funny, and so did the Middle School boys in the 4th floor of the brownstone next to us. I thought, "Put a powerful technology in the hands of of a Middle Schooler and you get powerful fun that may not be funny to an adult."
Put a laptop in front of a Middle School student and stand back. Exploration happens. Learning happens as every menu is opened and choices are selected at random. They will do it all, all right. Every last little thing that can be done. During the first week of the first laptop rollout at Portledge School, the following occurred: one student selected and deleted all of the .dll files on his laptop; three students created bios passwords and forgot them; one laptop was spray painted black; Student A showed Student B how to download image files and by the end of the day every sixth grader had a desktop personalized with a half-naked Internet image; Student C learned how to rip sound files off of a CD, using the preinstalled software, and by the next day she and her friends were sharing entire CD's over the network; Students D and E and Teacher A broke their wireless card pins when they took the card out to see how it worked; Student F decided to market his image collection over the network; over 30% of the homework assignments created on the laptop could not be retrieved the next day; five student machines had serious virus issues due to software downloads; ten student machines had serious compatibility issues after game installations. And that is just the short list. AND yes, we did a great deal of training and preteaching. What we did not do was a good enough job with was boundaries.
The point is, obviously, that the kids WILL do it all. They do this because they are kids and most kids will explore new technologies with abandon. Relying upon them to define procedures will mean that they are guiding outcomes as well - and your control over this will be limited to cleanup. You will have Laptop Diseases. Setting boundaries and focusing exploration are jobs for the adults. A few straightforward strategies are necessary to keep "Oh no" events to a minimum. Here are some that work:
- Have an AUP. Excellent examples are available on the net. There is currently an active debate about "detailed vs. broad" - take a stand, but make sure everyone has it, knows about it, signs it, and then skip to #6 below to amend it.
- Teach first and repeatedly about file and folder management.
- If you provide network file servers for students, teach how to use them and require network backup of assignments.
- Teach about file extensions and essential system files. If you are not blocking access to the System, you have to teach about dangerous places on the HD.
- Explain about viruses. If you have not issued protection software, introduce students to it via websites.
- Meet with a group of students and work with them to develop a set of guidelines for The Desktop appearance and a list of Common Sense rules for laptop use and abuse. Students are generally more conservative than adults when they are asked for advice. Use the meeting times to sneak in education about file size, copyright issues, and the physical weakness of the laptop itself. Post the list all over the place. Send it home. Put it on the Intranet homepage. Some schools require that students sign it (on a poster, on a flyer) before they can have network access (or before they get the laptop!).
- Fred Bartels at Rye Country Day School makes a movie each year in which he interviews students about "disasters." It is shown at the rollout.
- Learn about and teach about copyright. A straightforward set of rules for image and audio downloads, game installation, and software sharing will alleviate many of the most common violations (and allow you to skirt the P-Issue rather elegantly). Even better, use the elements of the Media Awareness curriculum that fit into your teaching framework. We have made a Cyberquiz on copyright that you are free to use (the results come to us - we can show you how to make it though. Let us know if you have used it so we can pass results to you.) The message has got to be: This is a School Tool.
Expectations: I can do it all!
And once the students are following rules and guidelines, does that mean they can follow any set of teacher instructions to complete a project or activity? Not in a squirrel's eye. "I can do it all" in kidspeak translates approximately to: "I vaguely remember the project we did in the Computer Lab" OR " I have played around with this software (or with this hardware) on my own and and done some really cool things that I want to use in the project." Tables, text wrap, graphic formatting, outlining, spellcheck, margins, alignment, spacing, centering, essential questions and relevant content are probably not on the list of "cool things." Neither is a consideration for file size. Again, a simple list of guidelines can save you, and your students, frustration and lost time in the classroom:
- Identify the technology skills necessary for the project. Be as detailed as possible, but you do not have to reinvent the wheel. Good lists of skills can be found at:
- ALA Literary Resources
- Mountain Brook Schools (Alabama) Technology Scope and Sequence
- Wisconsin's Model Academic Standards for Information and Technology Literacy - detailed checklists - you may use the .pdf version or the .html version
- Cooper Elementary School - 5th and 6th grade standards
- Essential Computer Skills - useful if you are teaching in a laptop class and need a baseline, but not essential.

- Create a checklist or rubric before you introduce the project. Take class time to go over it. I have often sat at the keyboard and had the students input the criteria for rubric categories. This clarifies expectations and cements them in the minds everyone (including you).

Gus: Leonard case represents a failure of the criminal justice system
Carroll: 'Monitoring [probationers] is critical'
The Ellis County Press
WAXAHACHIE – The race to replace 40th District Court Judge Gene Knize has attracted four Republicans seeking to replace the retiring 40-year veteran of county government.
The race has also attracted its fair share of controversy involving James Leonard, a Waxahachie lawyer who was accused of molesting two girls under the age of 14, only to be given 10 years of probation by Knize after prosecutors requested that judgment instead of jail.
Leonard, put on probation a week after Knize won his re-nomination battle four years ago in the GOP primary against Midlothian lawyer Dan Alt-man, fled to El Salvador and has not been heard from since.
Of the four candidates now in the race to succeed Knize, only one Leonard's lawyer at the time Cindy Ermatinger of Midlothian, did not respond.
Waxahachie Mayor Ron Wilkinson, former Ellis County Court at Law No. 1 Judge Bob Carroll and Red Oak lawyer Dan Gus each responded to a four-question questionnaire from The Ellis County Press.
It was the question about the Leonard case that received the most attention.
"The James Leonard case represents a failure of the criminal justice system," said Gus, a partner with Walker Sewell in Dallas.
"It shows that long experience in the criminal justice system does not always translate into sound judgment and good results. Fortunately, the Leonard case is a rarity in that most probationers do not flee the country in order to evade responsibility for their crimes."
Carroll, who switched from running for county judge to 40th District Court in December, said it was critical to monitor the whereabouts of alleged criminals given probation.
"At any given time, the Adult Probation Department typically has several hundred persons on probation," Carroll said.
"Monitoring the whereabouts of each probationer is critical, especially in higher risk categories. Limitations on the locations of where probationers live and travel restrictions on their movements are reasonable. It is important to note that the granting of probation is the post-adjudication release of a criminal defendant under specific terms and conditions imposed by the district judge.
"The continued freedom of the individual is expressly conditioned upon their compliance with such requirements as: regular reporting to the probation department, committing no further criminal offenses, paying fines, restitution to the crime victim, random drug testing, maintaining employment, and so forth. With respect to travel limitations, the surrender of passport documents could be required."
Wilkinson invoked judicial ethics canons and responded with, "… keeping these matters in mind, as far as [questions about the Leonard case] are concerned, I will enforce the law in every case that comes before me to the best of my ability and provide to every litigant a level playing field consistent with the laws of the State of Texas. Any infraction of the law will, of course, be investigated by the proper law enforcement authorities."
Due to space constraints, the candidates answers could not be put into this article.

Has anyone created new backgrounds for their games? Here are a few modified ones:
The Illan (both singular and plural) are a race virtually indistinguishable from humans, save for their innate psychic abilities. These gifts tend to separate the Illan from ordinary humans, making them suspected and feared, but also respected. The Illan are described more fully in the web enhancement for Green Ronin's Psychic's Handbook. This background could also be used for the Deryni race from Katherine Kurtz's novels, or for the Kalashtar race from the Eberron campaign setting.
- Ability Adjustments: None.
- Bonus Feats: Iron Will, Supernatural Talent (Mind Touch and Psychic Shield)
- Natural Psychic: Illan treat their total level as their adept level when determining the effectiveness of any mind-affecting powers they have. Illan can use the Mind Touch and Psychic Shield powers even if they have not taken those power feats, using them with an effective rank and adept level of 0.
- Favored Feats: Choose any two (based on the human culture the Illan lives within), or choose any one mind-affecting Power.
Changelings are the descendants of humans and doppelgangers, and have the ability to change their appearance into any humanoid form.
- Ability Adjustments: None.
- Bonus Feats: Power (Flesh Shaping. Changelings cannot use this power on others, but only need a full round action to use it on themselves, and treat it as if their total level was their adept level), Supernatural Focus (Flesh Shaping), Talented (Bluff and Sense Motive).
- Favored Feats: Choose two, or Power (Mind reading. Changelings treat this power as if their total level was their adept level, and do not need to be in mental contact with the subject).
Shifters, sometimes called "the weretouched" are the descendants of humans and natural lycanthropes. They cannot fully change their shape but can take on animalistic features – a state they call shifting.
- Ability Adjustments: +1 Dexterity, -1 Charisma
- Bonus Feats: Night vision, Improved Strike (natural weapons), Shifting (shifting functions like the Rage feat, but it can boost Dexterity instead of Strength (choose at character creation), and does not interfere with shifters using powers on themselves)
- Favored Feats: Shifting, and choose one of Diehard, Crippling Strike, or Weapon Specialization (unarmed strike)
- Ability Adjustments: +1 Constitution, -1 Charisma.
- Bonus Feats: Diehard, Weapon Training
- Living Construct: Warforged are immune to poison, disease, and natural fatigue, and do not need to breathe, eat, or sleep. They still take fatigue from extra effort, using powers, and fatiguing feats (such as Rage), and are affected by mind-affecting powers normally. Warforged do not recover naturally from lethal damage, and cannot benefit from the Cure power. They only recover from lethal damage if they or someone else spends the usual recovery time repairing them and succeeds at a DC 15 Craft check. Warforged may still spend a point of conviction to erase all bruised, dazed, and hurt conditions. All other rules on recovery apply normally.
- Composite Plating: Warforged cannot wear armor, but if they take the Armor Training feat they permanently gain the benefits and hindrances of one type of armor they are proficient in.
- Favored Feats: Choose two of Cleave, Favored Opponent, Master Plan, or Skill Mastery
Changelings, Shifters, and Warforged are from the Eberron campaign setting.

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A U.S. program in Cuba that secretly used an HIV-prevention workshop for political activism was assailed Monday by international public health officials and members of Congress who declared that such clandestine efforts put health programs at risk around the world.
Beginning in late 2009, the U.S. Agency for International Development deployed nearly a dozen young people from Latin America to Cuba to recruit political activists, an Associated Press investigation found. The operation put the foreigners in danger not long after a U.S. contractor was hauled away to a Cuban jail.
Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., said Monday it would be "worse than irresponsible" if USAID "concocted" an HIV-prevention workshop to promote a political agenda.
And InterAction, an alliance of global non-governmental aid groups, said, "The use of an HIV workshop for intelligence purposes is unacceptable. The U.S. government should never sacrifice delivering basic health services or civic programs to advance an intelligence goal."
The Obama administration defended its use of the HIV-prevention workshop for its Cuban democracy-promotion efforts but disputed that the project was a front for political purposes. The program "enabled support for Cuban civil society, while providing a secondary benefit of addressing the desires Cubans express for information and training about HIV prevention," said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki.
Documents and interviews make clear that the program was aimed at recruiting a younger generation of opponents to Cuba's Castro government. It is illegal in Cuba to work with foreign democracy-building programs. Documents prepared for the USAID-sponsored program called the HIV workshop the "perfect excuse" to conduct political activity.
Leahy, who is chairman of the Senate appropriations subcommittee that oversees USAID, said in response to the AP's findings: "It may have been good business for USAID's contractor, but it tarnishes USAID's long track record as a leader in global health."
The White House is still facing questions about a once-secret "Cuban Twitter" project, known as ZunZuneo. That program, launched by USAID in 2009 and uncovered by the AP in April, established a primitive social media network under the noses of Cuban officials. USAID's inspector general is investigating it.
In April, Leahy called the ZunZuneo program "dumb, dumb, dumb."
But on Monday, not all lawmakers were critical.
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., said USAID's programs were important for human rights in Cuba. "We must continue to pressure the Castro regime and support the Cuban people, who are oppressed on a daily basis," said Ros-Lehtinen, a Cuban native and vocal supporter of pro-democracy programs there.
As for health projects, the latest criticisms come months after a pledge by the CIA to stop using vaccine programs -- such as one in Pakistan that targeted Osama bin Laden -- to gather intelligence.
In the HIV workshop effort, the AP's investigation found the Latin American travelers' efforts were fraught with incompetence and risk. The young workers nearly blew their mission to "identify potential social-change actors." One said he got a paltry, 30-minute seminar on how to evade Cuban intelligence, and there appeared to be no safety net for the inexperienced workers if they were caught.
In all, nearly a dozen Latin Americans served in the program in Cuba, for pay as low as $5.41 an hour.
The AP found USAID and its contractor, Creative Associates International, continued the program even as U.S. officials privately told their government contractors to consider suspending travel to Cuba after the arrest of contractor Alan Gross, who remains imprisoned after smuggling in sensitive technology. A lawyer for Gross said Monday that his client cannot take life in prison much longer and has said his goodbyes to his wife and a daughter.
"We value your safety," one senior USAID official said in an email concerning the Latin American travelers. "The guidance applies to ALL travelers to the island, not just American citizens," another official said.
Creative Associates declined to comment, referring questions to USAID.
"All governments need to make trade-offs, for example, between civil liberties and public safety," said Les Roberts, a professor at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health. In the case of Cuba, he said, there is a trade-off between conducting neutral development efforts and "the political goal of regime change in Cuba."
"Without the appearance of neutrality," he said, "few things USAID wants to do internationally can be achieved."
Drawing on documents and interviews worldwide, the AP found the travelers program went to extensive lengths to hide the workers' activities. They were to communicate in code: "I have a headache" meant they suspected they were being monitored by Cuban authorities; "Your sister is ill" was an order to cut their trip short.

The Worst Website I've Ever Seen
"This is the McChicken Sandwich. As soon as you leave, I'm going to go T. Rex on this thing." – Paul
McDonald's does many things right, starting with their French fries, which are the international gold standard of fried potatoes. I have also commented in the past on their delicious Southwest salad. The McFlurry? McFuckable. Their food, with some notable exceptions (I'm looking at you McGriddle), is fantastic.
Where McDonald's consistently falls short, however, is in their marketing. Jesus they've got horrible marketing. Anybody who has ever seen a McDonald's commercial featuring rapping Chicken McNuggets knows what I am talking about.
(Pay special attention to the pop rocking Ronald McDonald)
McDonald's has a knack for appropriating the national zeitgeist and then getting it exactly and perfectly wrong. How they manage to so consistently mangle pop culture is beyond me, but they've been doing it so long that it seems to be part of their corporate DNA.
The way I interpret their marketing strategy is that they scour the landscape for trends, and then figure out a way to wring all the joy and authenticity out of whatever they find before presenting it to you, the consumer, as advertising.
So maybe it should come as no surprise that the good people at McDonald's are at it again. This time, they're promoting their dollar menu with an animated web series entitled "(Dollar Menu presents) The Reality House Show." You probably read the words "McDonalds animated web series/reality show parody" and think to yourself, "That sounds horrible." Well you would be wrong to think that. Horrible doesn't begin to describe how truly atrocious this thing is. I've never seen a more blatant and contrived example of corporate pandering in my life.

Respected and Feared Huntington Beach DUI Attorney.
Hiring the right Huntington Beach DUI lawyer will determine whether or not you win your Huntington Beach DUI case. The right Huntington Beach DUI Attorney will obtain all the evidence and fight your DUI charges.
Were you mistreated by the Huntington Beach Police Department during your DUI arrest?
You are not alone. The Huntington Beach Police Department has a reputation of mistreating and manhandling those in their custody for DUI. Part of hiring an experienced Huntington Beach DUI attorney is to maintain the balance of power between the Huntington Beach Police Department and the citizens of Huntington Beach.
Fight Back against the Huntington Beach Police Department. Call today to learn how.
I Passed All My Field Sobriety Tests!
Are you upset that you were arrested in Huntington Beach for a DUI after you took and passed all your Field Sobriety Tests, also known as "FSTs," ? We completely understand and are ready to subpoena the police and cross examine him or her about to your performance on the field sobriety tests and if he truly saw any "cues" of intoxication.
In addition, both Orange County Sheriffs Department and the Huntington Beach Police Department have patrol videos in their patrol cars. As of October 1, 2010, the CHP are currently installing patrol videos in each of their vehicles.
Patrol Videos are a vital piece of evidence for a Huntington Beach DUI defense because they often demonstrate your passing performance on the FSTs, the arresting officer's failure to follow protocol as trained, as well as contradict the arrest officer's contentions that you were visibly drunk and a hazard to the Huntington Beach roads.
Helpful Information Regarding Your Huntington Beach DUI Arrest.
If you were arrested in Huntington Beach for a DUI, you were either arrested by the Huntington Beach Police Department, Orange County Sheriffs Department, or the Westminister Division of the California Highway Patrol.
When arrested in Huntington Beach for a DUI, you'll be ordered to appear at the Orange County Superior Court - West Justice Center, located at 8141 13th Street, Westminster, CA 92683. Thus, a Huntington Beach DUI is also a Westminister DUI charge and you'll need a Westminister DUI Attorney to handle your case.
I got a DUI in Huntington Beach, now what?
First, when arrested in Huntington Beach for a DUI, you have 10 days from the day of your arrest to contact DMV and request a DMV hearing and date.
It is important to let an experienced Huntington Beach DUI attorney contact DMV on your behalf to better your chances of a win at your DMV hearing. Failure to contact DMV within 10 days of your Huntington Beach DUI arrest will result in the suspension of your driver's license.
Contact an experienced Huntington Beach DUI attorney soon to learn more about your possible drivers license suspension.
I don't want to go to trial, so why do I need a Huntington Beach DUI Trial Attorney ?
You can be the most intelligent, "book-smart" person or attorney in the world, but without local DMV and court experience, mere grades and book smarts alone will not be enough to negotiate a dismissal or achieve an acquittal for your Huntington Beach DUI arrest.
West Court District Attorneys know which lawyers consistently come into to court to merely run motions and plead their clients out of DUIs. The Huntington Beach DA's know which lawyers would rather not take a case to trial and this influences how they negotiate their cases for Huntington Beach DUI convictions.
If your attorney is known for not winning at a trial, there is no incentive for the DA to negotiate a dismissal because they know they are dealing with an attorney who will take any offer presented.
Even if your case doesn't go to trial, having a respected Huntington Beach DUI Trial Attorney negotiate your case will likely result in a better outcome than representing yourself or hiring an attorney with little local DMV and court experience, trial presence, and/or courtroom respect.
