- Bypass lawsuit rolls on as Warbler sits
For decades the Federal Highway Administration and the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) have been pursuing a freeway bypass on Highway 101 around the town of Willits. For decades townsfolk have been suggesting simpler, less costly, and less destructive alternatives.
With word that a large-scale cutting of trees could begin immediately, a local citizen's group, Save Our Little Lake Valley (SOLLV), came together on Monday, January 28, at the proposed "Southern Interchange," just 2 ½ miles south of Willits, to protest the CalTrans bypass and to protect the life of the valley. This area features a large number of blue and black oak trees, mixed with ponderosa pines and madrones, many of which reside on a hillside CalTrans plans to excavate to use as fill material to build its 20-foot-high freeway.
When SOLLV citizens arrived they were surprised to see a young woman nestled high up in one of the large ponderosa pine trees slated for removal. She is a 24 year-old local woman calling herself, the warbler, who has been living and working in the Willits valley for the past four years. Her commitment to protect the land evolved naturally from her years growing up surrounded by the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
The Warbler has pledged to maintain her tree-sit as long as it remains an effective way of staving off CalTrans' construction plans.
The new human vocation is to heal the earth.
We can only heal what we love.
We can only love what we know.
We can only know what we touch."
Warbler inspires us all to get in touch. "CalTrans has not considered the many other viable and sensible solutions to Willlits' traffic problems developed by the people," says Warbler. "This bypass will not improve local traffic and will create no permanent jobs, but it will permanently scar the Little Lake Valley. The Army Corp of Engineers is mandated to choose the least harmful alternative and the CalTrans bypass isn't it."
Warbler's willingness to "occupy" a large tree in order to protect it and the surrounding countryside is reminiscent of Julia "Butterfly" Hill who was just 23 years-old on December 10, 1997 when she ascended 180 feet up the redwood tree she called Luna, where she lived for 738 days, before an accommodation was reached to preserve Luna and all trees within a 200 foot buffer zone.
Support for Warbler, and her efforts to find a better solution than the CalTrans bypass, is increasing every day. Local businessman Bill Barksdale says, "I am in favor of some kind of traffic burden easing on our Main Street. I know I absolutely do not want to endure years of pile-driving noise and pollution to accommodate an unsightly high-rise highway not suitable for our valley."
Longtime Willits residents Marc Komer and Robin Goldner wrote to Gov. Jerry Brown. The CalTrans bypass "is a project that needs to be stopped now. It is an unnecessary fiscal waste and an environmental disaster. Willits has traffic bottlenecks in summer months and during peak usage. But according to CalTran's own study, three-quarters of the traffic in Willits is local. A better solution can be built for a fraction of the project's estimated cost."
Michael Foley grows vegetables at Green Uprising Farm in the Little Lake Valley. "When our elected officials choose to leave it to the bureaucracies and leave us out," says Foley, "it becomes not just a right but an obligation of citizens to protest. That's what Thomas Jefferson and John Adams and the rest of the Founding Fathers said."
Warbler has made her stand. "I'm here and I'm going to stay here," she says. The question is, who will stand with her?
When asked which environmentalist she most admired she said, "I've been influenced by Native American activist and poet John Trudell, but really, I've been most inspired by the entire Willits community that continues to support me."

Not-so-Common Article 3 Marty Lederman
Well, as I suggested, the Administration's noises about how, in the wake of Hamdan, it was finally going to comply with Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions, are not quite what they were cracked up to be in the eager, early press releases.
So the England memo, besides being a tactical gesture to help Haynes's confirmation and a PR triumph in the SCLM, is also a stopgap for the brief interval between Hamdan and the abolition of CA3.
That would explain its implausibility--it's not expected to carry much weight for very long.
Professor Lederman,
I can't figure Graham out. You've written once or twice before (possibly more) about times that he's been really admirable in defending our detainees. Then he turns around and does something like this. He must know what he's doing here. Do you (or any of the other commenters here) have a sense of what's going on with that? I'm planning on writing a letter to him on the theory that he's not totally beyond hope, and I want to make it as effective as possible. Any pointers, advice, or information anyone can provide would be a big help and could just possibly make some kind of difference. If you or anyone else wants to write the letter with me, that would be great, but just helping me get past this stage where I'm totally baffled by him would be of great help. Thanks in advance, Dave
Here are a few Graham-related links I've collected so far and a very brief discussion of why I'm writing to him.
Really, any analysis of his motivation would help me a lot. I feel like if this were put in the right terms, he'd see how much damage he's doing and change course. I know that's stupidly idealistic, but I'm going to try anyway.
In the Armed Services Committee hearing yesterday with six former and retired JAG's including the JAG for each of the four services one thing struck me and I am looking forward to reading the transcript of the testimony.
If you go to www.c-span.org and click on Senate Armed Services Committee Hearing on Hamdan and go in to about 2 hours and 58 or 59 minutes you can see this exchange. In the second round of questioning by Senator Lindsay Graham he went to the nub of the issue in addressing to what standard are soldiers trained. At the point of capture, soldiers are trained to treat everyone like a POW was the mantra of all four uniformed JAG's. Graham went on behind that to when a military interrogator or civilian interrogator now gets access to that person captured on a POW standard basis. Such military or civilian interrogator may understand the person does not have POW status. Prior to Hamdan, such military or civilian interrogator and his/her chain of command giving orders would have not thought Common Article 3 applied pursuant to President Bush's February 7, 2002 memo but rather the humane treatment/military necessity standard. Graham's concern in light of Hamdan was how to get such interrogators clear instructions so that they do not do something that violates Common Article 3. Everyone agreed that violation of Common Article 3 would be a War Crime under War Crime Act (as did administration types speaking at other hearings this week). Graham pushed further by asking the JAG's whether any techniques approved prior to Hamdan violated Common Article 3. The four uniformed JAG's and two retired either said yes or agreed because Graham said something like "let the record show that all assented to the question." This admission/opinion I found extraordinarily significant because we must remember that Common Article 3 was the law of the land from 2000-2006. The only thing (we'll keep it simple for the purposes of this message) that changed was the President's February 7, 2002 order and the rest of it. Now there is some language for a "corporal's defense" in the Detainee Treatment Act about "order/reasonable person not understand as unlawful" to provide a defense for military or civilian interrogators but that seems to me does not prevent the charging of persons who ordered and or acquiesced in or used the techniques whether military or civilian and that defense is weaker the higher you go up the chain in command. Obviously there is more on this but I found that admission very clear. So what struck me is the consensus that some approved techniques violated Common Article 3 and violation of Common Article 3 is a crime under the War Crimes Act. Add to that former Colin Powell's former Chief of Staff Wilkerson's statements that there is a paper trail from the White House all the way down on this and you have a package (Jordan has brought this out in his pieces also but we now have this admission too). It was a very extraordinary hearing. Please listen to the tape and tell me if my ears are fooling me. Best, Ben
Post a Comment
Thank you for the discussion. It seems like the perfect thing for me to look at before I write the letter I mentioned above. Unfortunately, I can't get the C-Span link to work! Can you: a) find a transcript or b) write down a few quotes from the exchange so that I can find the transcript? Also, it sounds like you're very well informed about this sort of thing. If you'd like to collaborate on the letter, let me know. Thanks again for the C-Span find, Dave |

Dr Sanjay Bose sits at a clinic at the Tabba hospital and examines patients, mostly children who come in with various heart ailments. He puts a stethoscope on their chest, hears their heartbeat, goes through medical reports and asks them, "Do you have a passport?
Will you come to India for your surgery?"
Most are taken by surprise. They smile shyly and look up to their parents for an answer. The Aman ki Asha and Rotary Club have a vision to send 200 patients to India this year for free-of-cost heart-related surgeries.
India is believed to be ahead of Pakistan when it comes to heart surgeries for children. "We do not have many Pakistani cardiologists who can perform surgeries on children, which is much more complicated than performing it on adults," explains Fahad Anwer Chishti, Public Relations Officer (PRO) at the Tabba Heart Institute.
Dr Bose is a leading cardiologist in India, and has been running a hospital in a small city in West Bengal. "Pakistan has several congenital heart diseases because of cousin marriages," he says.
He explains that a parent should become alert if a playful child is not able to run around like a normal kid. "Then there are cases of blue babies. These children are born with a tinge of blue because the heart cannot separate the good and bad blood."
He appreciates the Aman ki Asha initiative because "it brings forward a positive message, and perceptions change when the message reaches home"."We share common problems and the region should get together to solve these issues," he maintains.
Director Rotary International India Shekhar Mehta is part of the team here from India. "Before partition at least we knew each other. The present generation does not. We need to have people-to-people contact to undermine this perceived animosity."
He shares an example: "One of the patients who got his surgery done in India told me, 'I was born in one country, but given life in another'."

About Botnets
Last Updated: Wed, 12 Feb 2014 > Related Articles
Learn about bots and botnets and how they play into cyber crime.
A botnet is a network of infected computer systems which are under the control of someone else, other than the intended users. Typically, the invader is a criminal or group of criminals who are exploiting the compromised systems for fraudulent activity and / or financial gain. Botnets are used to conduct all sorts of other criminal activities, from making online purchases with stolen credit cards to illegal online wire transfers.
One of the more common ways bots are used is to send spam and phishing scam emails. These emails are sent anonymously from the infected computers, to thousands or more recipients at a time. This typically happens while the user is away from their PC. Much of the unsolicited email you have received probably came from a bot running on someone else's infected computer.
Detecting Botnets
Today, it can be very difficult to detect the malicious software behind all of this. The processes are usually hidden and come online only after the system has been idle for a while. However, if your Internet Service Provider contacts you about any type of spam, virus or suspicious activity coming from your IP Address, there is a very good chance that you are infected and your system is likely under the control of someone else.
There are a number of tools that you can download and run to clean the more common infections. However, not all malicious software can be detected or completely removed. If you have been advised that your system is likely infected with a virus, it is best to back up your important files and re-image your system.
Protection Against Botnets
Today, one of the best ways to keep yourself protected is to promptly update your Operating System, Security Software, Adobe Acrobat / Flash and Sun / Java software, as soon as updates are made available to you. Your system will notify you of these updates:
- For Windows users, access the small pop-ups on the lower-right-hand corner of your screen.
- For Mac users, a software update menu opens as soon as you login.
You will never be notified of critical system updates via email, unless you have intentionally subscribed to receive these types of notifications from your software vendor. So, do not click on any links in emails or web browser pop-ups that claim to be for critical software updates. There are other free malicious software scanner tools available, such as the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool, which you can occasionally run, in addition to your current anti-virus.

D-1.1 6-62 INTER-OFFICE CORRESPONDENCE Date: February 7, 1973 To: Mexico Files From: Weston Bourret Sub: CONVERSATION WITH JIM HANNAN, CONSULTING MINING ENGINEER, COLIMA, MEXICO Ref: Mexican Report of 1972 A. M. Wilson c.c. E. C. DeMoss H. G. Peacock R. O. Wheaton H. Douglas On January 22, 1973, I had a call from Jim Hannan in response to previous discussions on Mexico. Following is the substance of the conversation: 1. The large Mexican mining companies like Penles, Asarco de Mexicana, Frisco, and Mexicana de Cobre are inundated with requests from American and Canadian companies for joint venture propositions. Foreign companies with generous exploration budgets are coming to realize that the key to entering Mexico is the right Mexican partner. Accordingly, American companies are seeking out established operators. 2. Asarco's deal with the Mexican government for La Caridad has hit a major snag in regard to management and technical coordination. For these reasons, financing is stalled. Jim Hannan is a close friend of Eng. Garcia Locana, Assistant Manager for Asarco, and has promised to keep me informed. The President of Asarco Mexicana is Gorge Larea. 3. One of the major problems to working in Mexico is the serious shortage of competent geologists and mining engineers. In order to get a good man (if there are any), you must resort to piracy. Mexico's best-known consulting geologist, Georges Ordonez, has retired and is turning his practice over to his son Ezekial, age 34. 4. The Fluor Utah joint venture arrangement, known as Azteca, has been dissolved for lack of business. 5. Jim Hannan recommends closely watching the La Caridad situation before making any major move or commitment. One of the few active foreign organizations in Mexico is Placer Mexicana. Fortunately, Placer has a staff of Spanish-speaking geologists, including a few Columbians, formerly attached to the Pato operation. ...12 - 2 - 6. Hannan spent several years running Daniel Ludwig's mining and exploration activities. Ludwig has pulled out of exploration and Hannan is presently spending most of his time for Martin Marietta and the Banks. Altogether Jim Hannan has had about twenty-five years in Mexico and is regarded as an ""old hand"" in the mining business. Personally, I regard him as most reliable and unusually well-informed. W.B. Weston Bourret WB:nam D-l.l 6-62 File INTER-OFFICE CORRESPONDENCE Date: . 8 February 1973 To: E. C. DeMoss cc A. M. Wilson From: Weston Bourret Sub: MEXICO - ATTACHED MEMO Ref: The attached memo on Mexico was prompted by rumors through Fluor Utah, Asarco and Georges Ordonez that investment climate in Mexico has taken a turn since my report of last year. Last fall, the Mexican Secretary of Commerce, Jose Campillo Sainz, gave a talk before a U. S. conference on investment policy. According to Jim Hannan, there has in fact been a rift between factions in the Mexican government and the United States business community. Wes Weston Bourret WB/nam Attachment

Soundgarden brings killer riffs and a sound mix from hell to Vancouver
At the Queen Elizabeth Theatre on Sunday, February 10
Vancouver's Soundgarden fans had real reason to rejoice in 2010 when the classic lineup of singer Chris Cornell, guitarist Kim Thayil, bassist Ben Shepherd, and drummer Matt Cameron reunited after 12 years apart, and then announced a summer arena tour that included a stop at Rogers Arena on July 30, 2011.
But the excitement level for those same fans reached new heights in 2012 when the quartet—in the wake of releasing King Animal, its first album in 16 years—lined up a winter soft-seater tour that would include a stop at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre on February 10, 2013. Not surprisingly, the show was an instant sellout.
Considering how impressive they were in the home of the Canucks, I for one was psyched about seeing Soundgarden perform in the much more intimate confines of the Queen E. My only concern—after checking on setlist.fm website—was that the band hadn't included "Outshined" in its set two nights prior at the Paramount Theatre, in its Seattle hometown. I mean, could I really get the most out of a Soundgarden gig without hearing my favourite tune of theirs?
As it turned out, the band did play "Outshined" last night—along with my other fave Soundgarden track, "Fell on Black Days". There was no problem with the song selection at all, in my books. The only problem was with the sound mix, which started off atrocious and stayed that way for the entire two-hour show.
The acoustics in the QE can be pretty great, but apparently not so much for hard-rock acts. Subpar sound was evident when Chickenfoot played the venue last summer, only it wasn't half as bad as it was last night. Where I was sitting Soundgarden's guitar, bass, and drums coagulated into one hurtin', muddy mess, while Cornell's lyrics were indecipherable throughout. You just don't expect a band to sound way worse in a theatre than it did in a hockey rink.
Maybe I happened to get stuck in a particularly poor-sounding location, because it wasn't as if the crowd fled in droves from the racket—or formed a posse to lynch the offending soundman. They held their ground and cheered every song, though not with any rabid enthusiasm.
As well as tracks from King Animal—including the rifftastic opener, "Been Away Too Long"—Cornell and Co. focused on material from the top-selling '90s albums Badmotorfinger ("Jesus Christ Pose", "Rusty Cage", "Outshined") and the five-times-platinum Superunknown ("Fell on Black Days", "Black Hole Sun").
There wasn't much verbal communication between the band and the audience, which was fine with me, since I'm from the "less talkin', more rockin'" school of thought. But a bit more in the way of visuals would have been nice, as it seemed like a lot of the lights that were set up were hardly even used. The most exciting thing that happened on-stage was when one overzealous fan crawled up and leapt around a bit before being tackled by a roadie and dragged away.
I hate to say it, 'cause I admire the group, but judging by Sunday night, Soundgarden has fallen on black days itself.
Or maybe it was just the soundman.
There is no excuse for poor sound in ANY room anymore.
People should demand refunds.
But Soundgarden was not a great show, sound quality quite aside. There was no love coming from them. It looked like they didn't particularly want to be there, the songs were often smooshed together and sounded alike in many instances. I don't demand stage theatrics (though I'll take them gladly) but Cornell and co were pretty lacklustre and it was the audience who actually carried the flag.

Lexus GX470 Navigation System
Is there a way to bypass or disable navigation restrictions while driving. I hope spoken with Lexus discretely and they disclaim this activity and mention any changes to software will void warranty. However, it was indirectly mentioned that an electronic jumper may accomplish my objective. Though quite frankly I am in agreement with this restriction conceptually, but it is too restrictive, literally navigation is unusable while driving even for passengers.
maizenblue Posts: 6I have a 2004 GX470, and the nav system has always had errors. Likes to lose me and put me in unknown places. Recently updated the disc and it is worse than the original one. I've read the manual, made sure settings/region is correct and use the heck out of the calibration/recalibration tool. Still have problems with system losing its place and not finding GPS satellite position. Live in large enough metropolitan city and travel to large cities. Satellite should find me, but it is always lost. Any other owners with this problem and any solutions?
lexusbee Posts: 1I have 08 gx470 with Nav system. Recently I drove from Dallas(TX) to Rogers (AR). The Nave system showed me 3 routes which are entirely different from yahoo or google maps. Even the shortest/fastest route show and excess of 70 miles. I took the Quick1 and I drove an extra 90 miles (extra 90 mins). While return I followed the yahoo map and I was back in less than 5 hours, compared to 6.5 hours.
Did anybody else experience this before. Cn u try this by your nav system too.
Thanks, -

bhutt Posts: 1I recently purchased this vehicle from a family member and it has the sat nav system. My job requires me to visit locations that are new roads and thus are not in the system when I try finding them.
I was told by my local Lexus dealer that you can upgrade the software by purchasing the cd software. However, the update may not be too useful as Lexus updates more of the roads and streets out west than they do in the east.
Does anybody have a solution to this issue?

Time-honored family recipes form the backbone of Great China's menu, which features iconic dishes from throughout the country and even beyond its borders. This pan-regional approach means that stir-fried hunan chicken and spicy szechuan beef mingle with entrees such as crispy, golden-brown duck. From there, the selection's broad-reaching focus becomes even more apparent, as evidenced by the shrimp pad thai, Vietnamese egg rolls, and fried rice with a side of friendship.
The chefs at Hot Wok Delivery stir-fry Chinese and Cambodian dishes before whisking them to diners' tables or homes. During lunch and dinner rushes, they man flaming stovetops, sautéing chicken, pork, beef, shrimp, and vegetables to thread into noodle entrees and combination plates. Before meals fly from the kitchen, the chefs finish them with a quick splash of sauce, adding either sweet or savory notes or imbuing them with a fiery sauce spicier than a jalapeño's memoirs.
Although the red-walled dining room includes three booths at which customers can sit, the staff also delivers orders, shuttling food to family dinners or lengthy daguerreotype posing sessions.
Trained in Hong Kong, Grand Shanghai Restaurant?s chef brings all the flavors of the East to St. Paul through a menu of authentic Chinese recipes. Pairs of shanghai spring rolls or a half dozen pan-fried dumplings lead the way for individual or shareable servings of noodle, rice, and meat entrees. Sweet 'n' sour sauce covers enough chicken, pork, or shrimp for two, and bowls of mushroom chow mein can feed up to six hungry mouths.
Born in Vietnam and raised in the United States by Chinese parents, chef Nina Wong has always infused her dishes with a variety of Asian tastes. After marrying Thomas Gnanapragasam—a third-generation Malaysian of Indian descent—Wong discovered more unique flavors to integrate into her signature sauces and syrups. Originally opened in 2005, Chin Dian Café channels the pair's unique backgrounds through Asian soups, salads, and noodle and rice dishes, even offering some gluten-free options. Popular dishes, such as chow mai fun and chicken-and-chive dumplings, keep patrons rolling in and have earned the restaurant media acclaim from the Star Tribune, Minnesota Monthly, and the dictionary.
Inside a restaurant whose vibrant purple awnings help diners spot it from afar, cooks concoct 75 different dishes derived from the "roof of the world." Artwork-laden walls surround the tables and cushioned chairs in the dining area, where patrons enjoy home-cooked items ranging from Tibetan-style dumplings made with lean chopped beef to batter-fried sesame chicken. The restaurant's separate bar area provides patrons with a place where they can grab a drink, watch TV, and practice thumb-wrestling moves with others.
Rainbow Chinese Restaurant collides a multifarious menu of seasonal local produce-packed East Asian mainstays with an eclectic wine list. Chopsticks, forks, or miniature stilts skillfully transport starters including cream-cheese wontons ($6 for 10) and Rainbow egg rolls ($4 for two) from aesthetic plates to salivating orifices. After warming up palates, mouths can chaperone flavor fiestas featuring classic Chinese creations such as kung pao chicken ($12) or mongolian beef, served with descendants of Genghis Khan's pet scallions ($13). Accompanying a selection of gluten-free options are vegetarian delights including curry mock duck with broccoli ($12) and curry tofu vegetable fried rice, prepared without eggs ($8). Those in search of liquid respite or looking to topple a great wall of Chinese food lodged in an esophagus can guzzle tap beers ($3), Yaegaki California Ki-ippon hot sake ($5), or selections from the restaurant's carefully chosen wine list.

Forester Interior & Passenger Comfort Questions
bigfrank3 Posts: 426Which model do you have? I have an 06 Premium with the power seat, and I have a bad disc in my back (L4, L5). I find my seat very comfortable and find that I just needed to play with all the adjustments to find what works best.
As I remember, even the manual seat adjusts the seat bottom tilt as it is raised and lowered. You may want to raise the seat a bit with that adjustment as I believe it picks up the back of the seat bottom.
There is also an adjustable lumbar support on the right side of the seat back that may be providing too much "support" for your taste and comfort. -
lionel2 Posts: 2Hmmmm..... these are not very extended drives.. as I bought this car used I doubt if they'll take it back and I'm not sure I really want to have it taken back. I like the car a lot except for this. But it is a large item. Do you think it would be possible to ask a Subaru dealer what it would cost to replace the front seats with the leather/powered type? Is this even possible?
Thanks -

ateixeira Posts: 72,587I installed lots of accessories on my 98 Forester when I had it.
Generally it's never too hard, but the instructions are terrible.
Try 1stsubaruparts.com to see what their cost is compared to the dealer, but I think your prices are fairly low already so you may only save $20-30 or so.

I hate it when people call their own work "groundbreaking." Let the public decide for themselves whether your work deserves the designation, thank you very much. She is quite entertaining and it's good that she's very vocal on gay equality, but she does grate on me at times.
BTW, has she ever had men kissing men in her videos before, or is it just girl-on-girl? The last time I've seen a male-on-male kiss in a mainstream music video was in Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful". I'm cool with lesbians, but she does realize that a large percentage of the straight homophobic population gets off on seeing that stuff? Hardly groundbreaking.
That being said, yes, homosexuality is generally not a choice.
