BT journalist becomes chairman of PAP Policy Forum
Published on Oct 16, 2012 6:00 AM
The largest council of the People's Action Party (PAP) Policy Forum has been elected, and its chairman is Business Times (BT) journalist Malminderjit Singh.
Mr Singh, 33, is a member of the party's Kebun Baru branch. His council, voted in two Saturdays ago, comprises 25 members of different ages and professions, ranging from enterprise to law to financial services.
The number of members is more than double that of the last council of 11, reflecting greater interest from party members to be a part of the forum, said the PAP on its website and Facebook page yesterday.
The new council will lead the programming and engagement efforts of the eight-year-old forum, which was set up in 2004 to help rank-and-file members better understand the policy-making process and engage party leaders on national issues.

WASHINGTON After a brief congressional hold-up, the U.S. Senate passed by unanimous consent a bill honoring 4-year-old Kilah Davenport that aims to strengthen punishment for the worst child abuse cases.
Wednesdays vote clears the path for the legislation authored by Charlotte Republican Rep. Robert Pittenger to be signed by President Barack Obama . The House passed the bill unanimously in December.
Kilah was severely beaten by her stepfather in May 2012, fracturing her skull and leaving her with permanent brain damage. She died in March from her injuries.
Pittenger called the legislations passage a victory for Kilahs family.
The tragedy of their sweet child will not be in vain, and it will assist protecting other children, he said.
In a town known for its dysfunction, where Democrats and Republicans struggle to agree on anything, the passage of the legislation shows some good can come out of Washington, Pittenger said.
The bill is expected to be the freshman lawmakers first legislation to be passed by Congress and signed by the president.
It calls on the U.S. Attorney General to study child abuse penalties in every state and report whether penalties should be increased.
The Senate version was introduced by Republican U.S. Sen. Richard Burr of Winston-Salem and co-sponsored by Democratic U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan of Greensboro.
I am pleased that the Senate passed the Kilah Davenport bill tonight, and I thank Representative Pittenger for his advocacy on behalf of the family and the abused. I only regret Kilah did not survive to see her issue championed God bless her and her family, Burr said.
Last year, N.C. Gov. Pat McCrory signed a North Carolina law named after Kilah that increased sentencing punishments for five child abuse-related felonies.
Hagan intervenes for Pittenger
The federal legislation also got some bipartisan help from Hagan.
On a shared flight back to Washington last week, Pittenger asked Hagan for her help getting the legislation passed through the Democratic-led Senate Judiciary Committee, where it had been under consideration for several months.
Last week, Pittenger accused committee Chairman Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., of blocking the bill. His staff denied the allegation.
After the flight, Hagan sent Leahy a letter on Tuesday urging him to support the legislation that works to prevent more innocent children from becoming victims of abuse.
Leahy wrote back to Hagan, stating that his staffs review of the legislation took longer than usual because there was no previous hearing held in the House. He acknowledged he had some questions about the scope of the bill, but said he would defer to Hagans judgment and support the measure.

A pair of teams in the hunt for the Champion's Cup looked to shore up their defense just prior to the Trade Deadline at 5pm Eastern Time today. The Buffalo Bandits re-acquired All-Star defenseman Andy Ogilvie from the Vancouver Ravens in exchange for defenseman Greg Flores and the conditional draft selection Vancouver gave to Buffalo when Ogilvie was sent from the Bandits to the Ravens back in December. The Ravens also acquired a 2004 first round selection and a 2005 second round selection from the San Jose Stealth in exchange for defenseman Darren Reisig. The trade is conditional upon Reisig being able to report to San Jose. Earlier today, the Colorado Mammoth re-acquired forward Tom Phair from the Anaheim Storm for a second round selection in the 2004 Entry Draft. Phair played in every game for Colorado last season before joining the Anaheim Storm as a free agent prior to the start of the season. Earlier today, the San Jose Stealth acquired forward Josh Bergey from the Toronto Rock in exchange for defenseman Tim O'Brien. Bergey is the younger brother of Philadelphia Wings forward Jake Bergey, and was a first-round selection by Toronto in the 2003 Entry Draft.
On Monday, the Buffalo Bandits acquired forward Roy Colsey from the Anaheim Storm in exchange for forward Ryan Powell and third round selection in the 2004 Entry Draft. Colsey is a nine-year veteran and is closing in on 400 career points.
"All year we've been lacking a big right-handed outside shot," said Silcott. "We've got a bunch of talented offensive righties but bringing Roy in gives us that big shot that should open up the middle for us. We'll be talking to Roy very soon about his role with this team. Hopefully he can come in, find his niche and help us down the stretch in the playoffs."
A nine-year NLL veteran, Colsey scored 11 goals and nine assists for Anaheim in eight games this season. In 101 career games, he has scored 214 goals and 167 assists for 381 points. This is Colsey's second tour of duty with the Bandits. He appeared in six games during the 2002 season scoring 11 goals and eight assists for 19 points.
Over the weekend, the Calgary Roughnecks added veteran defenseman Craig Gelsvik to their active roster over the weekend, and waived forward Jordan West-Pratt. The Toronto Rock placed forward Ryan Painter on injured reserve and added forward Eric Pacey to their active roster. The Rochester Knighthawks signed forwards Shawn Wilkins and Dennis Juleff to their practice squad.
Please see the complete list of team activity leading up the trade deadline:
Tuesday, March 23
ANAHEIM STORM: Traded forward Tom Phair to the Colorado Mammoth in exchange for Colorado's second round selection in the 2004 Entry Draft.
ARIZONA STING: Signed goaltender Josh McNaughton to its practice squad.
BUFFALO BANDITS: Released forward Thomas Montour.

SAN JOSE STEALTH: Traded defenseman Tim O'Brien to the Toronto Rock for forward Josh Bergey.
VANCOUVER RAVENS: Traded defenseman Andy Ogilive to the Buffalo Bandits for defenseman Greg Floris and the conditional draft selection that was originally sent to Buffalo from Vancouver in 2003. Traded defenseman Darren Reisig to the San Jose Stealth for a first round selection in the 2004 Entry Draft and second round selection in the 2005 Entry draft.
Monday, March 22
BUFFALO BANDITS: Traded the rights to forward Ryan Powell and their third round selection in the 2004 Entry Draft to the Anaheim Storm for forward Roy Colsey.

TORONTO ROCK: Placed forward Ryan Painter on injured reserve and signed forward Eric Pacey.
Saturday, March 20

Last night I planned out what I was eating today (except dinner). I stuck with it. I have a new rule, NO EATING WHAT'S IN THE TEACHERS' ROOM!!! Today I JUST SAID NO to some kind of banana nut bread or something plus a coffee cake. My body doesn't need that junk. It just makes me look awful. My skin gets worse and I get pudgy... this morning I bit the bullet and weighed myself. 146.0. Yesterday I was OK - tracked everything I ate and came in around 1,730 calories or so, plus I went for a 45 minute walk. But today I was really good. Stuck with my eating plan (about 1,300 calories) and did an hour of high intensity stair climbing! My heart rate went higher so I know that I'm already in worse shape after just that little break. But things are a little easier, I must admit. I'm not as hungry because of the "reserve" from eating so much over the weekend, I have a higher daily target since my weight now starts with 14 instead of 13, I earn more activity points for the same level of activity, and it's easier to reach higher intensities. It really is harder the further you get into it. This is kind of a fresh start for me and just like with any fresh start I expect to lose a ton quickly. I should be back in the 130s in no time and then it'll get hard again. Sigh. But this time I WILL APPRECIATE MY HARD WORK MORE! I will celebrate with size 6 clothes! I will not keep it a secret how proud of myself I am or how good I look! Yay me!
I think I'm sick....I have a painful sore throat and feel tired. Unfortunately my appetite seems to have increased....and I mean the "I want to eat even though I know I don't need to" kind of appetite. Even though I'm supposed to be on Block Island this weekend, nothing has stopped me from being bad. I am too ashamed to even write what I ate today but let me just say that next time I need to JUST SAY NO when there are baked goods in the teachers' room. Sick or not, I know it's time to buckle down again before things really spiral out of control with my weight. Ugh.
Why AREN'T more books dedicated to maintanence alone? It's always an afterthought chapter added to the end of a diet book or program. In some ways, it's even MORE important than the weightloss program itself, because weight loss is temporary. Maintanence should be for life!
It's all been so new to me, but I have already learned so much in just over a month since starting maintanence. It's psychological and physiological and the two just cannot be separated. Here's some of what I've been learning:
*Drinking fluids is way more essential than you'd ever realize.
*Motivation is this magical flame that sometimes burns bright and strong, other times flickers or goes out and needs to be re-lit. I'm not sure if I have a solution that'll keep the flame always burning strong, but here are some things that have helped my motivation come back when it was in danger of disappearing:
-going to a WW meeting
-receiving a sparkmail message from someone who noticed I hadn't been around lately
-having definite short-term goals - knowing I will be ON THE BEACH seems to be the best motivator, it's already saved me twice and it's only June 4.
*Once motivation is there, it's a little easier to maintain it for a while. I get bursts of ambition like last night, when after I went to the grocery store I spent a couple hours pre-portioning all my cereal in serving-size bags, making a crockpot dish, portioning cherries into plastic cups... When I know I will see a lower number on the scale the next day, I don't want to mess that up by eating something I don't really need at night.
*On the flip side, when motivation is already gone, it's easy to keep on "being bad." If I've already binged on one kind of cereal, unfortunately I'll sometimes have a can of soup and then binge on another kind of cereal. That's why I didn't buy any soup and I preportioned all my cereal last night! Ha!
*You really can feel a lot of the physiological processes happening, I think. I really do think I can feel it in my body when I'm losing weight. It's this uncomfortable hungry and weak feeling I get, but the more recently I've gotten back "on program," the less uncomfortable it feels, if that makes any sense. I can feel when I'm a little hungry (but can live with it, UNLESS I'm about to do some exercise in which case I'd need to eat a little more to get through the workout), very hungry in an immediate sense (the low blood sugar, sweaty, shaky feeling), or very hungry in the long term sense (the weak feeling I get when I haven't eaten over 1,300 calories in a while). I can also tell when I'm really NOT hungry at all, but just want to eat!
*I have a binge problem. It's not that I get really hungry or LOVE the food that I'm eating, I just sometimes want to eat large quantities. I'm really not sure why. It's pretty destructive. I eat to the point where I don't feel good. I need to work on this.
OK, more on this later, I gotta go!
I'm living that Japanese proverb. Fall down 9 times, pick yourself back up 10.
The past few days every time I tried to post a blog entry I had technical difficulties. Luckily those entries were never very long. I had a few hard days on Monday-Wednesday and I ate too much, but of course I learned from the experience:
1) I need gum. I was out of gum on Mon-Wed, and I was eating cereal instead. I binged SO HARD on cereal. I have since bought gum and have not binged. From now on, it is a PRIORITY to ensure that I have gum around.
2) I can relapse from anything. I went on a 3-day binge basically, but my weight only went up to 140 and after just one day of being strict yesterday, it dropped back to 137.6. (I was strict again today so I expect to see another loss for tomorrow. I wouldn't have been so strict - I actually have an unused AP - but I'm going to the beach tomorrow - first time since becoming thin!!!)
3) No matter how "bad" I was, GO TO WEIGHT WATCHERS EVERY WEEK. I didn't want to, but I went, I weighed in (up 0.8 after being up 3 pounds the week before), and then I got the support I needed from my leader and group members to really get back on track. No offense, SparkPeople, but this was actually a case where I needed face-to-face support.
4) It's not all bad. It might just be the way I maintain. Some days I eat a lot but those days MUST be balanced out with days when I am strict. When I do eat a lot, it's healthy food and it's not nearly as much as "a lot" used to be before I started this program. I could not fit that much food in me anymore!! So I'm getting a LOT of nutrients on those pig-out days, and letting myelf know that I don't have to deprive myself 100% of the time to stay thin. I have more energy and am in a better mood after I've eaten a lot. My fitness level continues to increase. (Speaking of which, I ran a mile in 7 minutes, 52 seconds today and felt like I could have gone even faster.)
5) Thank goodness for that bridesmaid dress. I probably should have ordered the 8, but it's the 6 that's making me realize I MUST not gain weight. I no longer think I ought to weigh 124, but I do have to fit into that dress in December, so I gotta keep my weight at least NEAR 135. For the wedding I'll probably have to weigh under 135. But that doesn't have to be my permanent weight.
6) In addition to needing gum, I need to be drinking. Coffee is good because it decreases my appetite and increases my energy. But I also need non-caffeinated, calorie-free beverages. On the days that I ate too much I didn't drink enough. NOT a coincidence.
There's a very fit, thin woman at my gym. She does a LOT of strength training - she's at the gym more than I am!! She always says she does it because she loves to eat. She is so inspiring to me. I would rather work out a lot and get to eat a lot than deprive myself all the time. There's no way I could deprive myself all the time.

Rwanda's annual inflation rate increased to 8.18 percent in March as food prices and utility costs climbed, the National Institute of Statistics of Rwanda said.
Inflation accelerated from 7.85 percent in February, the Kigali-based agency said in a statement on its website today. Prices rose 2.2 percent in the month as food costs grew 4.4 percent and utilities advanced 2.6 percent, it said. Underlying inflation, which excludes food and energy costs, rose 5.3 percent in the year and 0.4 percent in the month, it said.
Rwanda's central bank left its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 7 percent last month as it forecast inflation will slow. The National Bank of Rwanda expects to reduce the inflation rate to 7.4 percent by the end of June, Governor Claver Gatete said on March 16.

firedancer commented on the blog post Poverty Unchanged By Wall Street Recovery
The official poverty rate is set at 3 times what it cost to feed yourself a basic diet. This was a figure set in the 60′s when food was 1/3 of a person's expenses, no longer the case now.
Poverty's impact is much more widespread than the official "poverty figure". The 2010 census showed that nearly 1 out of 2 Americans (48%) were living in poverty or "near poverty" (up to twice the official poverty income).This stunning figure is often not discussed.

eCAHNomics, I agree with your comment that "it gives the 1s another pool of 99s' assets to plunder". Basically this has been going on for a long time.
Strengthen social security, remove the cap on contributions, lower retirement age instead of increasing it, increase benefits instead of cutting them….this would actually and directly help us. Thinking of another vehicle to "save" is a joke. It is not possible for most people to "save" enough individually to support their retirement, especially with interest rates at .01-.25%.

It's high time we confront our collective denial about addictions. It's time to stop thinking that addicts are screwed up people and start focusing on our culture of addiction. It's time that we stop fantasizing that addicts are shooting up in dark hallways and smoking pot in high school yards and realize that our friends and families have a vast array of substances they abuse ready and available in their bathroom medicine cabinet, some of which have been prescribed by their doctors. It's time to take note of our own addictive tendencies in the way we "use" salt, sugar, coffee, wine, and other foods as well as tobacco, searching the Internet, watching television, and even exercising. It's time to stop projecting the problem on some young, dark-skinned, back alley, television hoodlum and take a good look in the mirror.
But the problem doesn't stop there. We are not only in denial about substance use and addiction, we have been fooled by television therapists, country club treatment program advertisements, and wishful but naïve thinking that people can end their addictions by going through drug treatment. Alas, the data is in and overwhelming clear. Consider the following:

SFI Inc., the non-profit organization that oversees the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) program, has issued a statement criticizing the third and latest draft of LEED 2012 for only issuing LEED points or credits for certified wood that is "FSC or better."
SFI maintains that the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), which administers the LEED program, continues to put up artificial barriers, shutting out 75% of North America's forests that are certified by programs other than the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).
The Washington, D.C.-based Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) forest certification program is inviting applications for its Conservation and Community Partnerships Grants program.
The program is now in its third year and continues to support research and outreach on responsible forestry.
Maine Governor Paul LePage has decreed that equal recognition be given to the Sustainable Forestry Initiative Standard (SFI), Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), American Tree Farm System, and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification systems when incorporating green building standards into any new or expanded state buildings.
The National Housing Endowment has announced 10 of the 25 Habitat for Humanity homes will be certified to the ANSI/ICC 700-2008 National Green Building Standard, thanks to a community grant from Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI).
Valley Forge, Pa.-based CertainTeed is making a significant change to its kraft-faced fiberglass insulation by incorporating paper certified under the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI).
Gaithersburg, Md.-based pro dealer TW Perry is promoting understanding of green building and environmentally friendly materials with a back-to-basics educational program.
The six-unit TW Perry has received chain-of-custody certification by both the Forest Stewardship Council and the Sustainable Forestry Initiative, and it recently hosted its third annual Green Building Workshop. According to CEO Michael Cassidy, as the company's green education programs grow, they will focus on product application.
ForestEthics, a hard-hitting environmental group that is running a campaign to protect endangered forests, has kept the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) organization in its crosshairs for the last several years. The forest industry's largest certification program for wood products even has its own tab on the ForestEthics Web page: Viewers can click on "Stop SFI GreenWash" and read a critique of the group's certification process, its membership, its nonprofit status and even its logo.
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, officially launching the International Year of the Forests on March 30, announced the USDA's strategy to promote the use of wood as a green building material.
"Wood has a vital role to play in meeting the growing demand for green building materials. Forest Service studies show that wood compares favorably with competing materials," said Vilsack, who laid out a three-part plan to address current green building practices. These strategies will include:
The Swedish furniture and home furnishings retailer is preparing for Earth Day by describing sustainability as "the never ending job."
The company also is promoting what it calls a "Never ending list" of small improvements toward a more sustainable IKEA.

Everett bookworms in love plan a library wedding
They love books and libraries. Her favorite authors are Jane Austen, David James Duncan and Robertson Davies. He likes Raymond Chandler, Rudyard Kipling and Bill Bryson. They also love each other.
The Herald
They love books and libraries. Her favorite authors are Jane Austen, David James Duncan and Robertson Davies. He likes Raymond Chandler, Rudyard Kipling and Bill Bryson. They also love each other.
Friday morning, in a place that's sacred to them, Barbara Morrow and David Kurland exchanged vows. Librarian Theresa Gemmer officiated at their wedding in the Everett Public Library's Northwest History Room. Gemmer, ordained by the Universal Life Church Monastery, said she has performed about 20 weddings.
In one sweet moment, Morrow started to cry while reciting words they had written together. As she promised to "love you today, tomorrow and forever" and to "always be open, honest and faithful to you," she paused a moment, then said, "We wrote too much stuff."
"That was one of the loveliest ceremonies I've ever seen," said Christine Hansen, the couple's friend and an official witness along with Gary Evans. The brief ceremony happened an hour before the library opened at 10 a.m. After the wedding, library staff enjoyed several kinds of cake.
The couple didn't have far to go to get to the wedding on time. Home is a fourth-floor apartment at Library Place, a downtown apartment complex next to the Everett library.
A week ago, over coffee at their apartment, they told their grown-up love story. It's one of hope, faith in new beginnings, and a belief that love is worth the trouble it takes to find it.
"I had been a single woman for a long time," Morrow, 66, said last week. A psychiatric nurse, she was divorced years ago and has a grown daughter.
Kurland, 64, was living in Bellingham when he and Morrow met about two years ago through the dating website Match.com.
"We both spent a lot of time looking for each other. We wanted the possibility of happiness," said Kurland, who relocated after doing computer graphics for an architectural business in New Mexico. He has also worked as a pastry chef and repaired violins.
When layoffs came in the architectural firm, Kurland followed a longtime dream of moving to the Northwest. He doesn't like the sun. Morrow moved here about 20 years ago to escape Wisconsin's extreme weather.
Kurland, who was also married before, has two sons. One works in Europe, the other is a doctor in New Mexico. Morrow's daughter Rachel and son-in-law John Steendahl live in Seattle.
It was the written word that first attracted Kurland to Morrow's profile on the dating site. "I just wanted to have lunch with the woman who could write like that," he said. They exchanged email before agreeing to meet in a public place.
It didn't take long to see how their lives fit together. As a boy, Kurland spent time with relatives in Scotland, and in his 20s he took a freighter to Yugoslavia. He also taught English in Morocco. Morrow worked on a kibbutz in Israel as a young woman. "It was fascinating to see how other people lived," she said.
There were barriers to their relationship. Morrow had two cats, and Kurland is allergic to cats. He lived in Bellingham, and for a time Morrow spent weekends there. Her elderly cats died. And with Morrow's job at GroupHealth in Everett, the move to Library Place made sense.
Wherever they go, they visit libraries. "Libraries are full of ideas. A person needs lots of ideas. And we both love words," Kurland said. "We are the ultimate nerds."
The couple, who were registered as domestic partners with the state, began thinking of marriage because of Social Security benefits. They considered a courthouse wedding, but decided to ask about a library ceremony.
Joan Blacker, the librarian they first approached with the idea, joked Friday that she became "their wedding planner." Everett Public Library Director Eileen Simmons said their wedding wasn't a first. A couple was married last year on the library's outside balcony. No wedding fees were charged, Simmons said.
The newlyweds will wait until spring for a honeymoon, perhaps to Victoria, B.C. At home, they make books romantic. "We like reading out loud to each other," Morrow said.
After cutting the cake, it occurred to the bride that she could take care of a small detail.
"I have to renew my library card," she said. "I got an email about that, but I was waiting for my name change."

Thats not how it works. It was the Democrats who started most of the blocking techniques Republicans are now using. Not to mention that a majority of Republicans won their elections and rightfully control the House.
We will see how gun control, immigration and the economy play out over next 2 yrs. Then we will see what happens. Dangerous play by Obama to be mr hardball when he could have went center. Instead he tacks right to pander to the super liberals upset with his first term.
Also the Democrats are getting to do some politics. Did they get their Supreme Court nominee in? Did they get to end the wars early and not leave troops in iraq? yes. Did they get a deal to have taxes for people earning over 400 grand a yr? yes they did get that. Did they get Obamacare rammed through repubs? Yes they got that also. So lets not act like Dems not getting things they want. This is like the first cut in spending in how long? Obama just acting like a spoiled child right now. It's embarassing for the country and history will not look kind upon it.

I don't know if this is satire or not but there are people out there whose thinking (or lack of it) scares me. I have a friend who thinks that Noah's flood was the first time it had ever rained because that is the first time rain is mentioned in the bible. Kind of makes you wanna yell "OK, we know what you believe! How about brains, do you believe in those?"
Are the posts usually scrambled like this? Replies on page 1 to comments on page 5?
Why don't ya drink all the Kool-Aid?
After all the crap Ive had to put up with today, this does nothing to restore my faith in humanity.
And its my birthday!

Perish the thought!!!
Hey Matthew,
That is very sad, imo.

Don't teach your kids to believe , teach them to think !!!!!
A woman that needs advice about a dinosaur toy shouldn't be allowed to adopt, let alone reproduce.
Thousands of families go through this place, truly heartbreaking for all the science that has been done on this, and people are being led to believe that dinosaurs were around and surviving very nicely with humans. Aaaggrrhhh!!

For profit nursing school
- 0Jul 9, '12 by mrscseatonI just want to know if anyone is going to a for profit nursing school this semester?
- 0Jul 9, '12 by mrscseatonIs anyone going to a for profit nursing school this fall?
- 0Jul 10, '12 by Nurse2b209No, honestly I'd rather wait and go to a traditional school where I wouldn't have to worry about accreditation/approval, high tuition rates etc. Luckily, I start nursing school next month. I know there are people out there who don't have time to wait for a nursing program and they need something quick, but hopefully thorough research has been done on that school and it gives their students a quality education. There is a for profit school in my town and most places around here will not hire those graduates. Not to say that all for profits are bad, but there are many out there that shouldn't be operating.
- 0Very true! I am going to one in September... I did thorough research...that is why I chose the school I did. )
- 0Quote from mrscseatonSame here, i will be attending one in September. Didn't have to do too much research, only because i already attended the school before for another program. Good luck on everyone's journeyVery true! I am going to one in September... I did thorough research...that is why I chose the school I did. )

APNewsBreak: Replacing Inslee may cost state $1M
The special election to replace former U.S. Rep. Jay Inslee may end up costing Washington state $1 million as officials factor in the spending needed to educate voters about the confusing ballot situation, officials said Friday.
Associated Press
The special election to replace former U.S. Rep. Jay Inslee may end up costing Washington state $1 million as officials factor in the spending needed to educate voters about the confusing ballot situation, officials said Friday.
Washington secretary of state spokesman Dave Ammons said the agency is asking lawmakers for $225,000 to send out postcards to voters explaining the situation.
Some voters will see two congressional races on the ballot, including a race covering Inslee's old 1st District to put someone in Congress to finish the final month of his term.
That money will come in addition to an estimated $770,000 the state will spend to reimburse counties for the cost of the special election votes in August and November.
Ammons said the postcard money is critical for voter education, especially since the state would ideally do something more widespread such as television or radio advertising. He said officials in King County are also looking at supporting the voter education effort.
"It's a bare-bones request," Ammons said.
Inslee resigned from his seat in March to focus on running for governor. The Democrat has said he delayed his departure in part because of cost considerations, telling KUOW in an interview last month that he didn't want to "expose the citizens to a $1 million election."
Had he resigned before March 6, the state would have had to call a special election for the summer to fill his seat for the remainder of the term, which Ammons said would have been more expensive.
A spokeswoman for Inslee did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Democratic Gov. Chris Gregoire and Republican Secretary of State Sam Reed determined earlier this week that the U.S. Constitution requires the state to call a special election to replace Inslee.
The election is made complicated because Congress is going through a redistricting process that reshapes the district boundaries. So people who live in Inslee's old 1st District boundaries may now live in one of four districts - the 1st, 2nd, 6th or 7th.
Voters living in the overlapping areas will have to vote in one race for someone to finish out Inslee's term and the other race to select a representative who will begin in January.
Candidates who want to run in both races will have to operate separate campaigns.
The request for an extra $1 million comes as state lawmakers have been straining to fill a half-billion-dollar shortfall.
Ammons said he is hopeful that the Legislature will include some of that money in the budget they are working on in the special session and that the office will need all the money by early next year.

Apple invites security experts to review Lion developer preview
CNET reports that Apple has sent notice to a few big-time security experts, including some folks who've attacked OS X security in the past, to check out the developer preview of OS X Lion. "As you have reported Mac OS X security issues in the past," the letter reportedly tells the researchers, "I thought that you might be interested in taking a look at this. It contains several improvements in the area of security countermeasures."
Note that this isn't actual consulting on the part of these researchers, though they are getting a preview copy of the OS for free. Dino Dai Zovi is one of the experts that Apple invited to check out the system, and he lauds the move on Twitter, stating that it "looks to be a step in the direction of opening up a bit and inviting more dialogue with external researchers."
Good for Apple, in that case. Hopefully the outcome of all of this is a more secure operating system, and we can all appreciate that for sure.

Sample Courses
Spanish 280A: The Twentieth-Century Mexican Novel
How did Mexican novelists respond to the enormous changes that took place in their country in the twentieth century? What literary innovations did they develop as they sought to capture new ways of looking at the world around them? These are the questions that will guide us as we read key Mexican novels from the 1910s to the 1990s. Among other topics, we will look at how Mexican writers responded to the Mexican Revolution, at their portrayals of indigenous peoples, and at their views of mass society and consumer culture. We will examine the new techniques twentieth-century Mexican authors developed to create more refined representations of the inner worlds of their characters, as well as more accurate portrayals of the experience of living in a modern society. Authors studied include Mariano Azuela, Juan Rulfo, Rosario Castellanos, Carlos Fuentes, Jorge Ibargüengoitia, José Agustín, and Cristina Rivera Garza. The class will also read selected critical texts that approach the novels studied from the perspective of subaltern studies, indigenismo, modernist and postmodernist aesthetics, feminism, narrative theory, and psychoanalysis.
Spanish 290: Octavio Paz
Mexican poet and essayist Octavio Paz had an extraordinarily rich and varied literary career that spanned more than six decades of the twentieth century. Working in the symbolist and avant-garde traditions, he produced some of the most enduring poetic works of the modern era in Latin America. As an essayist he wrote incisively and elegantly on a vast array of topics, including the Mexican national character, national and international politics, the visual arts, poetry and modernity, linguistics, anthropology, love and eroticism, Asian cultures, and the biographies of many of the distinguished writers and artists he met in the course of his long career. Christopher Dominguez Michael once stated that the twentieth century was the century of Octavio Paz in Mexican literature, while Irving Howe called Paz a "hombre orquesta." This course will attempt to give a sense of the importance and diversity of Paz's work through close readings of some of his major poems and essays. We will also examine the controversies that swirled around Octavio Paz as he evolved from a leftist and pro-revolutionary standpoint in the 1930s to a pro-democracy and free market outlook in the 1980s and 90s.

The month from 15 September to 15 October is Hispanic Heritage Month. The event was originally Hispanic Heritage Week, approved by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1968. In 1988 President Ronald Reagan made it a month-long event. 15 September was chosen as the starting point for the celebration because five Latin American countries celebrate it as their day of independence: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua all declared independence on 15 September 1821. In addition, Mexico celebrates its independence day on 16 September, Chile on 18 September, and Belize on 21 September.
Today Hispanic culture in America is thriving. Hispanic Americans are the fastest-growing minority group in the United States, with 46.9 million Hispanic Americans in July of 2008. Hispanics are the largest minority group in America, comprising 15% of the nation's total population, not including Puerto Rico. Only Mexico, with 110 million Hispanics, has a larger Hispanic population than that of the United States. Forty-eight percent of Hispanic Americans live in California or Texas, with 13.5 million in California and 8.9 million in Texas.
One of the best sources for searching your genealogy, if your Hispanic ancestors were from Mexico, is the 1930 Mexican census. This census is available at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City and its extension offices, Family History Centers. FamilySearch Indexing is currently working on digitizing all these records; they will soon be made available free on pilot.familysearch.org. In addition to the census, the Family History library has microfilmed 99% of Mexican parish records. Parish records are a gold mine for genealogical researchers, since every baptism, marriage, and death was recorded by the parish priest.
If you have early Spanish ancestors in the Americas that you want to learn more about, the Spanish Colonial Research Center is a prime resource. A partnership between the National Park Service and the University of New Mexico, the Research Center has over 85,000 pages of Spanish colonial documents, microfilmed. The Research Center also publishes the Colonial Latin American Historical Review, a quarterly journal.

On January 20, while President Barack Obama was in prayer following his inauguration a delegation from Alabama announced they would seek a Congressional Gold Medal, posthumously, in honor of the four girls killed in the 1963 Birmingham Church bombing, one of the most horrific attacks of the Civil Right struggle.
U.S. Senator Richard Shelby, U.S. Representatives Terri Sewell and Spencer Bachus stood next to Birmingham Mayor William A. Bell, Sr. in a sign of bi-partisan political unity.
On September 15, 1963, a bomb exploded at 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, killing Addie Mae Collins, 14; Denise McNair, 11; Carole Robertson, 14; and Cynthia Wesley, 14. (Black Star News)

£20 more and even better still.
Well .... this has definitely made my mind up I will be buying one in the very near future, once I am conformable that I will also have enough money to last me until the end of the month, as I am on an apprenticeship wage atm.
We did a test to see if buying SSD's would pay off for the school. Our test machine was a Pentium D with 256MB RAM. It was ridiculously quick and booted Windows XP in a few seconds. Applications opening instantly and we had 100 explorer windows, 80 internet explorer windows and 50 word windows open, and still it showed no lag at all. Okay, it was overkill but we wanted to see how far we could push it. We probably could have gone further!
But then ..... £66.00 from Ebuyer, with free deliver, might take a bit longer, but if its worth it. [Ohhh £80 with VAT]

I read somewhere that the write level wearing lasts for something like 35 years of constant use in all modern SSDs.
I use an SSD on my webserver which is reading and writing data 24/7 for a year and no problems yet. We also have our sims server with an SSD in it for 2 years now no problems. Its our most intensive I/O server by far.
I also have 150+ ssd's in school now and not had one fail yet.
In my experience using Intel 320 series SSDs are far more reliable than hard disks.
EDIT: Can you tell I like SSDs ?

Well i've got the feeling that once i've brought one, and I like it, there is going to be no stopping me.
Some makes of SSD are better than others in terms of reliability.
If you do go for an OCZ, avoid the vertex drives (especially the 60GB one's)... I've had 6 out of 7 die on me within 1-2 weeks of installing, I exchanged all the dead ones for OCZ agility's, and haven't had any problems with them. Still waiting for the 7th vertex to go...
With the HDD supply issues now is the time for SSD manufacturers to really ramp up their production and get the cost/GB down to aggressively take market share from mechanical drives. I still find SSDs too pricey to make them a commodity purchase in the way I would an HDD... £100 for 80GB is still on the "luxury" side rather than being standard fit.
Would love to see all our desktops here on SSDs as we want the performance over masses of local space but the price difference for a good quality SSD over equivalent hard drive does push the price up at the moment.

Subie headlightsby Quill
I know you guys are pretty familiar with Subarus, but occasionally you dole out some pretty bogus answers with regard to questions about them. This episode is a case in point. Your caller complained about excessive headlight bulb burnouts in an 05 Outback. I own an independent Subaru shop in northern Ca and I've been replacing bulbs in these things like crazy, and I never touch the bulb surface with my fingers. So far, my conclusion as to why they burn out so frequently is most likely excessive heat buildup in a poorly designed housing, but how do you prove that? I wish I had a constructive solution for your caller, but so far I've got nada. Feel free to e-mail me with Subie problems, because I've probably seen just about every one, and have even been able to solve some before Subaru of America has.

Martin Luther King's children battling over estate
ATLANTA (AP) — A generation after the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s death, his children are fighting among themselves again, this time over two of their father's most cherished possessions: his 1964 Nobel Peace Prize medal and the Bible he carried.
The civil rights leader's daughter Bernice King has both items, and her brothers, Dexter King and Martin Luther King III, asked a judge last week to order her to turn them over. She said her brothers want to sell them.
In a blistering statement this week, Bernice said their father "MUST be turning in his grave" over the idea. She said that while she loves her brothers dearly, she was "appalled and utterly ashamed" of the plan, and added: "It reveals a desperation beyond comprehension."
Then on Thursday, at a news conference from the pulpit of the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church where her father and grandfather preached, she portrayed herself as the true protector of King's legacy.
"When the record books are written, let it be said that there was at least one heir who tried to further the legacy," she said.
In response to repeated emails and calls, a lawyer for the King estate, which is controlled by Dexter and Martin III, sent a copy of a 1995 agreement among the siblings in which they signed over the rights to many items to the Estate of Martin Luther King Jr. Inc. The lawyer offered no comment.
It is the latest in a string of disputes over the years that some historians have come to see as a sad and unseemly footnote to history that could damage King's name.
David J. Garrow, whose book "Bearing the Cross: Martin Luther King Jr. and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference" won the 1987 Pulitzer Prize, said he wasn't "surprised in the slightest" to hear about the latest fight among the King heirs.
"The agenda has always been greed," Garrow said. "It's been about maximizing the dollar value of Dr. King's legacy."
Bernice has repeatedly acknowledged the validity of the 1995 agreement but is now refusing to hand over the Bible and medal, the brothers said in court papers.
Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in 1968. His widow, Coretta Scott King, died in 2006.
The King children have profited from their father's legacy. In 2006, Sotheby's auctioned off 10,000 documents from their collection for $32 million, with the siblings receiving equal shares of the proceeds.
They also haven't shied from legal battles that push their family disputes into the public eye.
Garrow said King's Bible should go to a museum or somewhere it can be seen by everyone.
"The fundamental bottom line here is that the King children have no clue what their father's legacy really means," the historian said. "Martin Luther King Jr. was the most unselfish, ungreedy person who ever lived."
While their mother was alive, the King children had periods of not speaking to each other, but they mostly kept their disagreements to themselves. After their mother died, it was the oldest daughter, Yolanda, who held the siblings together. When Yolanda died in 2007, that glue was gone.
