According to reports, the crash occurred at 3:45 a.m. on King Edward Avenue.
Officials eventually identified the man as Elias Perez Calderon, 25.
According to reports filed by Cleveland Police Department and with the Bradley County 911 Center, an immediate identification was not available but investigators were finally able to learn the victim's true identity.
The report filed by officer Jansen Vassey hasn't been completed, according to Evie West, information officer for Cleveland Police Department.
West said according to Vassey's initial report and findings, Calderon was headed north on King Edward Avenue when his vehicle left the roadway and struck a tree.
Calderon was pronounced dead shortly afterward. The report also indicated Calderon was wearing his seat belt.
Investigation is continuing.
- A man was arrested and charged with driving under the influence, possession of legend drugs, simple possession of Schedule IV narcotics and violation of implied consent after he reportedly struck a car in the parking lot of a local restaurant.
Thomas Tucker Johnston, 56, was charged after officer Whitney Owens responded Sunday afternoon to McDonald's located on North Lee Highway.
According to his report, Johnston was in the drive-through when he reportedly struck a car in front of him.
Law enforcement was notified and responded to the scene.
Owens noted in his report Johnston's speech was slurred and he allegedly had trouble finding his identification inside his wallet.
Further investigation revealed several pills inside his pocket.
Johnston was taken to the Bradley County Jail and booked on the charges.
- Several scrap metal items were reported stolen from a Lancaster Lane address.
According to a report filed by deputy Kevin Chastain of the Bradley County Sheriff's Office, Scott Hegel said someone took the metal from a building where he had it stored.
The building was reportedly not locked at the time of the theft.
Hegel estimated his loss at $100.

ACCA (The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants), KPMG and Fauna & Flora International, have investigated the concept and existing use of materiality in light of the increasing significance of natural capital as a business risk.
The new report entitled: Is natural capital a material issue? An evaluation of the relevance of ecosystem services to accounting professionals and the private sector will be officially launched at a briefing event held in London today.
Natural capital – the stock of capital derived from natural resources such as biological diversity, ecosystems and the services they provide – is in decline globally. The loss of natural capital exposes companies to a range of new risks and opportunities that can impact profit, asset value and cashflow. Civil society is increasingly concerned about the loss of natural capital, but are companies identifying and measuring these issues? When do they become material?
The report explores the current response of the accountancy profession to the increasing importance of natural capital as a business issue. It involved a survey of more than 200 accountancy professionals, interviews with CFOs and senior management from eight major companies, a disclosure survey of corporate reporting by 40 organisations in specific sectors, and desk-based research into relevant literature and work in the field.
Key findings of the survey include:
- Perceptions of Natural Capital as a risk are variable within the accountancy profession
- Current disclosures on Natural Capital, as currently practised, are too limited to provide insights into risk management
- A handful of companies in high environmental impact sectors are reporting substantial detail on aspects of Natural Capital, but the majority are reporting little or no information due to the perceived immateriality of the issue
- There are a number of barriers to corporate action such as the lack of a standardised business case, low or unclear market values for some aspects of Natural Capital and some accounting principles
- 60 per cent of respondents agreed that the natural world was important to their business
- More than half of the respondents had included natural capital issues in their company's business risk evaluations at some point, and
- Nearly half (49 per cent) of respondents identified natural capital as a material issue for their business and linked it to operational, regulatory, reputational and financial risks
Author of the report, Dr Stephanie Hime of KPMG's Climate Change and Sustainability practice, said: 'Specific parts of Natural Capital are increasingly being recognised as critical and material business issues. This report aims to bring a new audience into the debate by focusing attention on what the accountancy profession can do to mitigate these risks.'
Head of Sustainability at ACCA, Rachel Jackson, said: 'ACCA strongly believes that considerations should be made by accountancy bodies to make their members aware of the need to account for natural capital within the company annual reports and accounts, as well as sustainability reports in order to avoid failures when anticipating future risk and their associated costs to business.'

No - I am not from State Farm!
I went Carlton Daal and Cory Thompson. Straight upside SS. The Reds are rumored to be high on Daal, who I'm guessing will be the SS at Dayton, and Thompson flashed some potential right out of the draft.
Just a heads up, Tanner Robles who is listed in the poll, retired back in May.

There are still a number of kids who have talent left. Chacin, Rachal, Washington, Daal, Thompson....most at this point are either close like HRod, but seen as utility guys now, or at a low level with limited time. If a few of these low level guys break out this summer the Reds system is going to be a lot more highly ranked. Point is I could accept any of them getting voted on the list at this point.

Introducing ACCA's fourth international public sector conference, Anthony Harbinson, the Vice President of ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) said today that good economic governance should lie at the heart of public sector finance, alongside consistent, transparent and holistic financial information.
Mr Harbinson added that these issues are particularly important for the public sector due to on-going global sovereign debt issues and the fluctuations of the world economy, adding that both growth and austerity bring specific challenges.
Rebalancing the economy – boosting growth is the theme of the conference, at which Mr Harbinson said that finance professionals working in the public sector play a pivotal role in dealing with the financial challenges faced by public bodies.
He also spoke about the 'value' of the public sector, adding that as many economies around the world attempt to pull themselves out of one of the worst financial crises for decades, questions are increasingly being asked about the quality of government accounting and reporting and the value of audit.
Anthony Harbinson reminded the audience that the amount of expenditure on public services is significant - government expenditure accounts for more than one-third of GDP in most countries, adding: 'Given the sheer scale of expenditure and arena in which they operate, there is a pressing need for finance professionals in the public sector to encourage and embrace even greater transparency to underpin the enhanced financial management skills adopted in the sector in recent years.'
Mr Harbinson also commented on audit in the public sector: 'Given the amount of money we work with, ACCA strongly believes that external and internal audit make a valuable contribution to providing re-assurance to both public sector managers and taxpayers. Audit – whether in the public or private sectors - has a valuable role in promoting public confidence and trust.'
He concluded: 'Governments around the world are wrestling with a number of difficult and complex challenges – ageing population, healthcare costs, reform of welfare support, provision of quality education, the environment and climate change, defence costs and protection of natural resources to name a few. Each of these have to be dealt with at a time when the global economic crisis has impacted on the public sector in most jurisdictions. As a result, the public sector has to operate in a world of spending restrictions, of budget cuts, of greater efficiencies – at a time when cuts are unpalatable to many tax payers.'
Speakers at the event included:
- Carl Emmerson, deputy director, Institute of Fiscal Studies
- Gary Gillespie, director and chief economist for Scotland's government
- Mario Marcel, deputy director of the Public Governance and Territorial Development Directorate, OECD
- Fabian Zuleeg, chief economist, European Policy Centre
- Brian Quinn, director, Loan Department, World Bank
- Richard Hughes, economist, IMF
- Alexandre Makaronidis, head of unit - GFS quality management and government accounting at DG Eurostat.

Iowa Rush to host 2012 Select Celebration Banquet and Soccer Pro Jordan Angeli
On Sunday, June 3, The Iowa Rush Soccer Club, will host its annual select soccer banquet celebration for player and parents. The event will be held at the FFA Enrichment Center on the DMACC Campus in Ankeny from 6:30-8:30pm. This year's theme is "Hollywood".
The Select Celebration Banquet purpose is to continue to enrich the mission and vision of the Iowa Rush and engage players, parents, families and coaches in the Rush culture. The featured speaker of the event is an alumni of the Colorado Rush, Jordan Angeli.
Jordan grew up playing for the Colorado Rush. She was a part of a u-13, u-15, and u-19 Far West Regional Championship team and won the 2001 National Championship at u-15.
After high school, Jordan fulfilled her dream of going to Santa Clara University. Although she had great offers to go to other schools, she chose to go somewhere she knew would challenge her and make her into a better student and player. After a great sophomore season, she was invited to play on the U-20 US National Team as they competed in a World Championship in Russia. She continued to make a place for herself with the U-21 national team the next year and kept working hard to improve her game.
After 2 ACL injuries within a year of her junior/senior season, she finished her college career on a high note in 2009 back out on the field.
In January 2010, Jordan was drafted 16th overall to the Boston Breakers in the Women's Professional Soccer draft. Her rookie year, Jordan scored 7 goals and had 4 assists being named player of the month for July and selected to the "Best 11" in the league at the end of the year. That winter, she was invited into her first Full Women's National Team camps. Feeling on top of her game going into the 2011 season, Jordan scored the first goal of the year but it was shortly lived as she again tore her ACL just minutes later. She is now back at home in Colorado coaching with the Rush and working to get her knee and body healthy to compete again
Iowa Rush players and parents can register for this event at www.IowaRush.com. A silent auction will also be held in conjunction with this event with proceeds benefitting the lighting project at Prairie Ridge Soccer Complex.

why are there old queens in season 5 trailer?
Can't wait. Loving Alaska and Monsoon. Alaska has a very similar fun/slightly scary vibe to her like his/her bf Sharon Needles.
Not long til S5 starts and have yet to finish All Stars.
Here's a vid showing the girls out of drag. Who do you guys think is the most attractive? I think Alyssa Edwards is gorgeous and Ivy Winters is ADORABLE! Although I'm not sexually attracted to any of them.

Ivy Winters and Lineysha Sparx look the hottest as boys!
I am soooo late in the RuPaul's Drag Race game. I'm looking forward to watching this latest season--but I am still catching up on the others. I love this show, and can't believe I slept on it/ignored it for so long.
btw, does anyone remember a RuPaul music video that aired around the mid-late 90s where it was just her and two heavyset women as her backup singers/dancers? I think it was supposed to be a "light" and "funny" clip. I can't for the life of me remember the name of the song. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm just waiting for the shade. If I had to choose (like....forced) I'd go with ivy winters.
I think she was doing a cover of "It's Raining Men" with the Weather Girls.
yeeeeeehaw! this was a really good episode. im so excited.
this time, there is no queen that immediately won my heart, no queen that really stood out, no frontrunner. thats a bit of a pity, but it also makes it a little more interesting, competition wise.
the only one im really rooting for at this point is vivienne, but i always root for the asian girl. shes very pretty, and her entrance look was fierce, as was her shoot. but her runway look was way too plain. turn it up, girl!
serena: having an art school background myself, i get that the way we talk can be a little annoyning, and not intentionally so. but art school or not, serena just was annoying, period. her runway look was a disaster, but at least she brought it during the lip synch.
lineysha: wow. she is BEAUTIFUL. her runway look was kickass (although she seemed a little thick around her waist) and i think she should have won. shes pretty cute out of drag, too.
roxxxy: she seems pretty personable. i didnt think her runway look was the best; i liked her huge hair and her ass-showing gown, but there was too much shit glued to it.
jade: i like her personality. her runway look was bad, but she has potential. early favorite.
detox: her photo was hands down the best. like chad, shes creepy out of drag. her runway look was dreary.
alyssa: this one is a shit stirrer. im not buying her "feud" with coco for a single second.
coco: at least she seems a little more personable than alyssa, but her out-of-drag contacts are such a turn off.
alaska: her runway look was pretty good, but her photo shoot non-performance was a real disappointment.
honey mahoganey: rather unpolished, and not pretty at all.
penny tration: she didnt bring it. oh well.
i hope we get to see more of vivienne pinay's personality/looks. shes very fishy which i like. runway look was a little boring for me though.
not really feeling alaska. i remember her trying to sing lil kim's how many licks? and she got the lyrics wrong. which bothered me.
i like many other people think she wont compare to sharon.
serena is just plain annoying. she cant even read.
and she comes off as pretentious. but more than that. shes very childish.
I love this season already. I found every Queen to be fierce in their own way. I did agree that Penny deserved to go. I wasn't feeling Serena Cha Cha at first but I thought she looked ADORABLE performing Party in the USA and did deserve to stay. My favorites before the show aired were Ivy Winters, Vivienne Pinay, and Lynaesha Sparxx. After watching the show, they still very much are. The girls that grew on me were Jade Jolie (adorable), Roxxy Andrews (fierceee), and Jynx Monsoon (Pandora Boxxx+Sharon Needles+Tammie Brown?). The one's I'm so-so about but know they can still turn it out later in the season, similar to Phi Phi, are Monica Beverly Hillz, Serena Cha Cha, Alaska, and Honey Mohogany. I don't really care much for the Coco+Alyssa drama and don't really care much for Detox either, but nevertheless, still all fierce. Alyssas walk on the runway though... tone it down, girl.
I'm not really feeling any of the queens so far--but there do seem to be several that are on top of their game.
Roxxxy...I'm looking at you.
Alaska--not feeling her being there at all. I think she only made it through this time by association. Plus, I think she's just a far less interesting version of Sharon.
Also, the girl that made the dress out of wallpaper (Alyssa?) was fierce! That was a good job and I feel she should have won the challenge.
I'm going to have to make sure I start watching the Untucked episodes (shit is HILARIOUS!).
I wanted Cha Cha to go home so badly!!! ugh! That mess she came out on the stage with should have sent her packing. I mean, wtf? I think she's a mixture of Jiggly Caliente and Kenya Michaels. lol

Edit: Lineysha Sparx had the wallpaper dress.
Loved it!
Ru said in an interview that this was the first season with a love connection in the group, I am excited to find out who hooks up.
alaske is a favorite for me
i dont think its fair that people are comparing her to sharon
shes very different and she should be given a chance
jinx, alaska, detox ivy winters and the girl with the nbc logo are my favorites
OMG that is so cool, if this is true can you imagine if they had to lip sync together oh the emtional drama and conflict it will cause MWAHAHAHAHA..........
So far I'm really liking Ivy Winter( kinda cute as a boy) , Jinx Moonsoon (Is funny), Jade Jolie (did'nt like her at first but really grew on me towards the end and has a sweet personality but can still be fierce), Lineysha Sparx (gorgeous as a girl and guy).
I really like this seasons so far can't wait o see how this all unfold, by the way really can't stand Alaska fucken annoying as hell, and I'm just not feeling Detox as she seems to be the most popular one.
Good point Sparky, would make for a VERY dramatic episode!
I wonder if Ru knew both Jade and Detox did porn and put them on the show to add to the buzz.
Christina Aguilera - Glam
Christina Aguilera - Vanity
Christina Aguilera - But I am a Good Girl
I think Vivienne Pinay is a Christina Aguilera stan lol yasss I know who I'm rooting for now
okay so I know this is for season 5 but here's a vid of Jujubee doing "Your Body" I heard she did NMT too
PhiPhi Ohara doing YB
sorry for being off topic...but in the same vein as my previous post
Asian queens stanning for Xtina...I'm sensing a trend here
phiphi is not asian tho, right? i thought she was latino.
She's part filipino
did not know that.
i guess i dont love every asian girl after all :/
Not going to spoiler for anyone who hasn't seen this weeks epi yet, but I'm so glad for who went home I will HALLELOOO!
another really cool episode! the queens did all really well, except for serena, who was sent home for good reasons.
ivy winters: i didnt catch her name last ep, but i already thought back then that she makes a cute boy, in that nerdy kind of way. she seems really personable, too. not blown away by her drag yet.
vivienne: come on, hon! TURN IT UP!
lineysha: shes not only breathtakingly beautiful, but also has talent, and a shit-stirring side, apparently. a deserved win, shes one to look out for. her runway look was nothing special, tho.
jade: she seems all bubbly and sweet, but then she 1) has a fierce side to her, 2) has a shit-stirring side to her, and 3) turns out a unexpected kick-ass runway look. im intrigued!
monica: shes very personable, but the corners of her mouth are perpetually turned downwards. she needs to stop being a sourpuss and start kicking some ass.
coco: i like her, somewhat against my better judgement. her runway look was the best of all the looks so far this season.
alyssa: i didnt hate her this week. her performance was actually really good.
honey mahogany: better than last week, but still somewhat unpolished.
detox & alaska: those two are good and professional, but i also find them ever so slightly underwhelming.
I'm so glad Serena Cha Cha took her ass home. Personally, I'm still offended by her runway from last week--so I was definitely in agreement with Ru this week with sending her out the door. That being said--I kinda felt sorry for the way everyone ganged up on her in the Untucked episode. It was just too much.
No one is really making a good impression on me so far. There are a lot of shit-stirrers and wannabe divas though.
Well, I still have my eye on Roxxxy. I like her a little.
Detox's head is so far up her ass. Someone needs to knock her down a few pegs. I'm really hoping she's not going to be the Raja or Chad Michaels of this season. Seems a little too stuck on herself and not very personable, imo. Plus, out of drag he looks plastic as hell.
Don't like him.
It was so fun seeing the girls reenact some of the untucked scenes! Pure fucking comedy. My favorite was the fight between Mystique and Morgan.
Bitch, I am from Chicago!
Another contender:
This ain't RuPaul's Best Friend Race!
I cant at Serena telling everyone "to pick up a book"
Im so glad Serena went home..she was super annoying and still very much acting like teenager + her outfits and make up looked like shit....
Detox is veyr polish but i cant stand his attitude and the whole im humbled thing she said....well then better show it...i dont mind a queen with confidence as long as they can back it up like Raja could....Also the way Detox paints her nose makes it look so huge and thing and she need to get another gimmick than that mouth thing...
I think the interview scenes with Coco are amazing.. I like Jinx & Alaska because they are very quick in delevering a read or a line....
About Monica i wonder what the rules are for transgender...I mean if they had begin to take hormones they will have a huge step a head because they will naturally begin to get more female features..
I'm so glad SC went home, although I do think the queens were harsh with her.
I'm liking Alaska a lot more than I did in the first episode.
My favorites so far are Vivienne, Roxxy, and Detox.
I'm on the fence about Jade, but I like that she's sweet and not sweet at the same time.
First let me say Alaska is amazing. I know her and have seen so many of her and Sharons performances before the show. They are a lil similar but to say shes a copycat of Sharon is wrong. I am rooting for her,Detox,and Roxxxy over everybody. I want the drama queens coco and alyssa out asap. Lineysha is so hot outta drag as is Roxxxy. And for anyone who says Alaska is there by who she knows,the same could be said for Detox because she and Willam are like best friends and she has worked alot with Chad Michieals
I just don't understand what people see in Detox? She's a polished Queen, yes, but there's nothing about her that screams the "Next Drag Superstar". When they came out with that "Ro-laska-tox" crap I was like "Really?". It was awkward to watch them act like the cool girls of the season when really, everyone is (excluding miss Cha Cha lol).
I find it funny that not one, but two people are saying Coco is in her early 40's. I know if I were Coco, I'd be pissed as hell. FYI, she's 37, not early 40's.
another good episode! untucked was kinda useless this time around, though.
alyssa & coco: ugh. their little theater bores me to tears. and its working for them, too, since the producers are lapping it up. i wish one of the queens would call them out on just how fake it all is... now that would lead to some real fireworks! aside from that, they both actually have some talent, particularly coco. i dont know if pedo-drag is the way to go, but i have to admit, her outfit was impeccable. the pedo-bear was a nice touch.
detox: the runway look was fantastic. deserved win.
ivy: still not impressed by her drag, but totally crushing on him as a boy!
jinx: personable and talented. her runway look was adorable. out of drag, she freaks me out a little, tho.
vivienne: girl, im giving up on ya. shes gorgeous, but boring as hell.
jade: troublemaker, but at least she has some talent to back it up.
honey: wtf? this one needs to be called out on her dreary drag sometime soon.
roxxy & alaska: sure, theyre good, but a little too full of themselves. raja & manila at least were clearly head and shoulders above the rest.
Agree on the whole Coco/Alyssa thing...so boring and so teenage like.. but I really wanna know what Alyssa did to be d-crowned...
also I dont really get why the judges were so hard on Alaska not being in drag...if thats the case what about D-tox's chicken (or ravens in season 2) or Jade's look...
I loved Alaska's runway look with her pink ak41....Didten enjoy d-tox's..didten read pink from it just beige...and if you do the nude look you should have painted some nipples on that breastplate....
^To be fair, Raven and Jessica Wild HAD to wear that costume in season 2 to play the part of the chicken - in fact, that was Raven's main gripe.
I've watched 3 episodes and so far have not seen a "runaway" winner - Roxxy kind of comes close. KINDA.
"As anarchism rears its face,
They are answered by an iron fist..."
disappointed with Vivienne...though we do all know that RuPaul's producers do a lot of heavy editing. Is she really that boring or have they just been giving all the facetime to liek Coco and Alyssa. We literally get to see her talk for like less than a minute
but Honey Mahagony's gotta go. Shes annoying AND boring. wtf was with that toga. "im pummeling the runway" no you aint gurl.
I'm still not all that impressed by any of the girls...but I do like Roxxxy. I think she's going to be a frontrunner.
Still don't like Detox. Still don't like Alaska.
And I did mention that I think Alaska is only there because of her relation to Sharon Needles...
but I agree with what someone else said--that type of thing seems to happen across the seasons on Rupaul's Drag Race. It's so funny how so many drag queens KNOW so-and-so, or worked with what's-his-face, etc. hmmm...
just saying...
anyway, I think this week's challenge was kinda cute, and I loved the tossed salad bit. Pure comedy.
no editing in the world could save viviennes "comdey" performance, or her boring runway looks. she hasnt worn a single interesting thing this entire season. the polka-dot dress she initially showed up in was cute, but thats about it.
Because Vivian had so much time in the previews for next weeks episode I think she is going home next. Not that it really matters, she has had so little air time we don't even know her.
yea...I was hoping she was gon be Jujubee 2.0...oh well
I'm hoping Vivienne comes out of her shell. Sometimes the girls that either win or get close to winning don't get as much airtime in the beginning because there are so many other girls to focus on.
Roxxxy is cute out of drag.
Roxxxy seems to be a strong contestant for me, and likable too!! She's very sweet
and if Lineysha showed more personality, she could be a winner too
I think this is the weakest one in terms of talent, but the drama is high!
pouring into the night

Unrest in Iran Inspires Pro-Democracy Activists in the Arab World
June 27, 2009 by TMO · Leave a Comment
New America Media, Commentary, NAM Correspondent
NAM Editor's Note: Arab regimes haven't publicly criticized or even mentioned what is happening in neighboring Iran, triggering much speculation among Arab bloggers as to why that is. The author of this piece wished to remain anonymous due to safety concerns.

DAMASCUS — Images of bloody protesters and crowds numbering in the hundreds of thousands in the streets of Tehran have been broadcast into living rooms across the Arab world for five consecutive days, enchanting and inspiring pro-democracy activists in a region where pushes for democratic reforms tend to be met with an iron fist.
Meanwhile, Arab regimes have largely remained silent over the contested election. Leaders of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Jordan—the major Sunni powers in the region—haven't mentioned the elections or allegations of fraud. In normal circumstances, this would be strange — these countries are the regional archenemies of President Ahmedinejad's Iran.
Some say the reason behind their silence lies in their fear of bolstering pro-democracy movements in their own countries. "The unrest in Iran frightens dictators in the region because it makes it harder for them to justify their own absolute authority," says Syrian blogger Yasir Sadiq. "If they see tyrannies come down around them, they'll be afraid."
Whether or not the Iranian elections were "stolen," Iran is a long way ahead of most Arab countries when it comes to democracy — the country has a functioning electoral system. Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and the Gulf states don't hold elections, and in Egypt and Syria, "elections" are so tightly controlled that the results are always known in advance.
The state controlled media in authoritarian Arab countries have mostly downplayed the events in Iran. Government controlled newspapers like Al-Thawra in Syria, Iran's strongest regional ally, have kept Iran off the front pages and run headlines like, "The West needs to stop intervening in Iranian elections," using age-old claims of conspiracies to deflect attention from actual popular desire for democratic reform.
"Governments all over the Arab world accuse pro-democracy movements of serving the west, or of being tools of the CIA or Mosad (Israeli intelligence)," says Syrian freelance journalist Khaled Al-Khetyari. "They are just trying to manipulate people by using this language because the people in power don't want their populations to analyze what is actually happening in Iran."
The Obama administration has been relatively silent on the unrest in Iran. On Wednesday, Hillary Clinton said it was up to Iranians to "resolve this internal protest."
Al-Khatyari says the U.S. administration's measured distance is a strategy the U.S. should stick to. "The last American administration latched onto any internal opposition to regimes it didn't like. This always hurts local movements because it connects them to a country that most people here see as harmful to the region and it justifies repression by our governments."
Syrian blogger Yasir Sadiq says he is encouraged by the Iranian opposition's seven-point manifesto being circulated on the internet, which calls for the "Dissolution of all organizations — both secret and public — designed for the oppression of the Iranian people."
"It's inspiring to see people in the Middle East call for the end of secret services," Sadiq says. "Organizations like this have oppressed people in the Arab world so much."
Sadiq is reticent to believe that what he calls Iran's pro-democracy "intifada" could be exported to Arab countries any time soon. "It's difficult to hope for this kind of movement in the Arab world. We have a long way to go, but we hope that eventually, something like that will happen here."
For now, he says, Arab activists will attempt to learn what they can from their counterparts in Iran. For days, Sadiq has been pegged to Twitter, the social networking tool that has allowed Iranians to organize demonstrations while the Iranian government institutes a near blackout of internet services.
"Arab bloggers' main interest in what is happening in Iran is in figuring out how Twitter can be used to organize and bring our voices forward in our own countries," he says.
The government in Syria may eventually try to ban it, like they have with other networking sites like Facebook, but Sadiq says he is not deterred. "The more they ban, the more ways we will find to get around their restrictions."

Ernst Van Eeghen, director of marketing and product development at Salinas-based Church Bros. LLC, said excessive heat or rain in various regions is not the only reason for the price spike in some lettuce categories.
"Everybody has cut back their acreage, and that is reflected in commodity prices," Van Eeghen said. "After last year's disaster, we needed that. Prices were incredibly low then because of an oversupply. Cutting back has really corrected the overall supply and put the markets where they should be."
Although California's summer action for leafy greens is mostly in Salinas and Santa Maria, some crops — like spinach — are grown in other places, and different shippers will enter the lettuce deal as time goes on.
Baloian Farms, for one, will start lettuce in Fresno in October and then transition to the Coachella Valley in November, sales manager Jeremy Lane said. In March, Baloian's production will shift back to Fresno and finish up in early May. It's a three-season offering.
"We've found our niche and the customers who desire that high-end quality," Lane said. "We're looking forward to reengaging those customers when we jump back in in October."

I will take you out of your suspense: I am still depressed today. Because not only are all the Giants problems still raging, but yesterday the Best Closer Ever Who I Adore By the Way (Mariano Rivera, that is) twisted his knee before a game and torn his ACL. The outlook is not rosy. It may be the end of his career. As I've mentioned here before, the Core Four were some of my first loves in baseball so this just feels sad on many levels. Yankees fan @JaneHeller1 on Twitter said, "Watching Mo cry has completely traumatized me," and I have to echo that sentiment. The weather has improved over here, but I am still glum.
On that note, we're going to do the Top 10 Movies That Will Throw You a Curveball (aka, are seriously depressing). Here we go:
10. Corpse Bride. This one, I was not expecting to be sad, actually. I am a massive fan of Tim Burton (says so in my header, guys) so I was excited to see it and did ended up enjoying it but man, was it was sad. Twilight, you got nothing on that love triangle.
9. The Lord of the Rings. This makes both lists, because it is just that awesome.
8. Gallipoli. War movies are some of the saddest around, but also some of the best. This is one of my favorite war movies and I was reaching for my tissue box by the end. That end is heartbreaking. Consider yourself warned.
7. Titanic. Not for the reasons you think. Full disclosure: I didn't make it to the end, so I can't fully judge, but this was depressing indeed. Depressingly bad. I have a strong distaste for James Cameron and although I do like Leo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, that movie was unequivocally and sadly terrible in my book.
6. The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore. This is the only short on the list and it actually won Best Animated Short at the Academy Awards a couple months ago. It's absolutely beautiful and very sweetly sad. The whole thing is available on YouTube, so do yourself a favor and watch it.
5. Winter's Bone. A girl trying to protect her younger siblings from a community in Missouri that has been torn apart by the meth trade. Indie thriller and sad, sad, sad. But good, good, good, too.
4. Melancholia. This Lars Von Trier apocalyptic allegory for depression is amazingly and terribly beautiful and will leave you a little bit shell-shocked and more than a little bit gloomy.
3. Bright Star. Historical movie about the basically tragic life of John Keats. Dying of consumption and writing wonderful poems, need I say more?
2. Finding Neverland. I cried. The End. (Incidentally, why is Kate Winslet in so many sad movies?)
1. Never Let Me Go. And this one gets the prize for Making Diamond Girl Cry Harder Than She Has Ever Cried About a Movie Before. I've seen it three times now and it just gets sadder with time. It's really one of my favorite films ever, but be prepared to sob your heart out before you watch it.
May the fourth be with you, darlings! The Giants are going to turn it all around tonight! (Probably.)
Diamond Girl
p.s. I promise to actually talk about baseball tomorrow.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Poland's foreign minister said he feared a new arms race while on a visit
to Moscow on Wednesday, adding that Russian threats are taken "seriously"
by Poles.
"Experience has taught us that if Russia threatens us, we take it
seriously," Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said in an interview with the Echo
of Moscow radio station.
Sikorski's remarks referred to the Kremlin's plans to install a
missile-defence system on in Kaliningrad, by the Polish border.
In late November, Russian leader President Dimitry Medvedev reaffirmed
that if the US creates a missile -defence system on Polish soil, the
Kaliningrad project will go ahead.
Sikorski said that he was disappointed by the renewal of Russian "threats"
last month.
"We thought that that way of thinking was behind us," he said.
"Poland is the last country that wants a return to the arms race," he
Washington, alongside Warsaw, has always argued that the proposed missile
system in Poland was a defensive measure against "rogue states" such as
The initial project was signed in August 2008 at the tail-end of George
Bush's presidency, but Barack Obama put the concept on ice, backing a
alternative, and mobile, system in its place.
Meanwhile, on other Polish-Russian affairs, Sikorski said that he was
pleased that Russia was addressing the WWII Katyn massacre of 22,500
Polish citizens.
He said that Poland "appreciates the fact that Katyn is the first
Stalinist crime to be condemned by the State Parliament."
The condemnation took place in April 2010, just days after the Smolensk
air tragedy in which Poland's presidential delegation crashed while on its
way to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Katyn. Some 96 people,
including President Lech Kaczynski, perished in the accident.
While in Moscow, Sikorski signed an agreement that will ease border
controls for Russian citizens in Kaliningrad and the northern Polish
provinces of Pomerania and Warmia-Masuria.
Speaking to Moscow Echo radio, Sikorski said that "we prefer the concept
of open borders, not the intimidation," of an arms race.

RF, Poland do not have problems in energy cooperation
MOSCOW, December 14 (Itar-Tass) - Russia and Poland do not have problems
for cooperation in various spheres of energy, Russia's Foreign Minister
Sergei Lavrov said following talks with his Polish counterpart Radoslaw
Sikorski on Wednesday.
"If our companies are interested in shale gas, I am convinced this
mutual interest quite may be implemented," Lavrov said. He highlighted
yearning for stable gas supplies under the projects, which Russia
implements currently with several European companies.
"First of all I mean the North Stream and the South Stream. We also have
an agreement with Belarus on that country's gas transporting system," he
continued. "It is aimed at avoiding the problems which we faced in the
past regarding positions of transit countries."
The minister expressed confidence that "the amount of supplies will be
growing," and added that the companies are agreeing on prices "with the
use of the formula which is used now."
"This is an international practice," he added.
Lavrov said that "wider cooperation between Russia and the European
Union in the energy sector will be developing." This topic will be on
the agenda of the upcoming Russia-EU summit in Brussels, he added.

The company also has two personal-sized watermelons that are fairly new to the market, Sugar Bite and Summer Bite.
"We try to develop varieties that are true minis," said Robert Arriga, area business manager for Zeraim Gedera based in Texas. "Some companies have a little bigger size and ask the grower to work with the plant population, but we feel we have developed these varieties that are true minis."
Zeraim Gedera is part of Basel, Switzerland-based Syngenta AG after an acquisition in the 2000s, but still operates independently.
Syngenta itself has a new watermelon variety on the market — Fascination — bred to have firm flesh that will not break down and soften as quickly after cutting.
"It's a new generation of watermelon that has come out of our breeding program," said Andreas Steiner, director of marketing for Syngenta. "Consumers would like to get more bite and a sweeter aroma with watermelon. With this new generation we are able to address this."
Steiner said the variety has been made available to growers, and it is in high demand.

Grammar will soon become your students' favorite subject when you introduce them to Fold-N-Gos! With the Level 2 Fold-N-Go Grammar Pack, they'll make 10 lapbook-style grammar and writing flipbooks, each devoted to a different skill.
Colorful pages present simple rules, engaging examples, and practice exercises that make it fun to learn or review grammar and writing concepts. At the end of Level 2, kids will have their very own set of 10 portable reference guides, along with matching bookmarks for quick review.
What Parents Are Saying about Fold-N-GoTM Grammar
"Fold-N-Gos have been a wonderful opportunity to review and learn grammar concepts. If that weren't enough, they're fun and something my daughter looks forward to. I love that!" –Heidi, NY
"We love the Fold-N-Gos! Grammar has never been a favorite subject for my 11-year-old son. However, these break grammar down in such a fun and easy-to-use way that he now understands the concepts and doesn't even realize that it is 'grammar.' Anything that is simple to use while still effective is a must for any homeschool family, and these fit the bill perfectly!" –Tammy, FL
"We love Fold-N-Gos! It is much easier to correct a child's writing by using the guide than by the 'Mom says so' rule!" –Ellie, ID
This digital (E-book) version of the Fold-N-Go Grammar Pack includes the following printables:
Your child will make the following grammar flipbooks using the Level 2 Fold-N-Go Grammar Pack:
You will also need 10 tabbed file folders.
Assembling a Fold-N-Go
Some of the Fold-N-Go pages have cutting lines. Here is a sample page from the Compound Sentences Fold-N-Go. Cutting along the dotted line also yields a bookmark for review.
Also, by cutting away a strip from each page, the staggered widths will reveal the sidebar titles of the pages beneath.
Once all six pages are stapled into the file folder, you'll have one Fold-N-Go flipbook containing rules, entertaining examples, and simple practice exercises. An assembled Fold-N-Go will look like this:
"Andrew loves the Fold-N-Go Grammar guide. He actually looks forward to completing this each lesson and loves to go back and look at his previous guides." –Erika, TX

POLK CITY – A pressurized sewer force main in Polk City sprang a leak Wednesday releasing an unknown amount of wastewater into the Polk City Wildlife Refuge.
The break occurred just west of 44th St. on NW 110th St. The break was reported about 7 p.m. when someone noticed liquid bubbling up through the 110th St. roadbed.
City officials shut off the main by 9 p.m. Now they are working to repair the breech. They think the discharge ran for about three hours. The untreated wastewater flowed into a road ditch and then to a backwater of Saylorville Lake north of the marina.
"It's possible some of the wastewater made its way into the marina, but there is a barrier dam under Highway 415 where it crosses the backwaters greatly limiting flow into the lake," said Bill Gibbons of the DNR's Des Moines field office.
Gibbons added that the wastewater would have been very dilute since it entered the backwaters about a quarter mile north of the barrier.
The DNR cautions people to stay out of the backwaters for 24 to 48 hours. DNR staff will continue to monitor the situation.
