.- The U.S. bishops view the immigration bill that passed May 25 in the Senate as a critical first step in reaching a comprehensive approach to dealing with the challenges of the nation's immigration system.
"While the U.S. bishops' Conference does not agree with each and every provision in the Senate bill, we applaud its comprehensive approach and believe it contains many of the elements necessary to help solve the problems associated with our country's current immigration system," said Bishop Gerald Barnes of San Bernardino. Bishop Barnes serves as the chairman of the bishops' Committee on Migration.
The bishop called the passage of the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006 "a historic moment for our nation."
He also urged the Senate and House of Representatives "to work together to either eliminate or ameliorate the harsh enforcement provisions found in both the House-and Senate-passed versions of the legislation."
He also urged them to simplify the path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants to maintain a just temporary worker program, which includes an option to petition for permanent residency. He added that changes also be made to the family-based immigration system to reduce the waiting time for families to be reunited.

Summer is here and the time for poolside activity is nigh, these inflation inspired innovations are a perfect addition to your underwater escapades.
Depending on the size of one's outdoor pool, you may have to venture out to a water park to enjoy things like the Inflatable Iceberg or Survive the Titanic Adventure Slide. However, if you're lucky enough to have a 50-yard swimming pool or lake at your disposal, perhaps you'll want to invest in some fun flotation toys like an Aquatic Trampoline or Turbine Toy Boats.
Of course, pools can be more than just aquatic play areas, poolside fashion is a perfect way to showcase the scandalous and sexy attire of summer couture. Nothing says sexy summer fun like a naked, muscular man lounging in an outdoor kiddie pool.

Almost Perfect
Just got this polo in the mail yesterday. The fit is true to size and the inside has a more smooth and comfortable feel than the texture on the outside would provide, perfect if you like rocking a polo without an undershirt. I got it in white, and my only complaint is that the Hurley logo on the chest came in white, and not black (as pictured.) Minor detail, and one I don't really care about, but be warned that depending on the color you choose it may or may not be exactly as pictured.

Sharing the glories of Hyundai's work ethic and engineering speed in ways that customers can understand is Chris Perry's job as the company's new vice president of marketing. During the past three years, Perry and his friend for twenty-five years, Joel Ewanick, were the Joe Montana and Jerry Rice of the car marketing world. That is, until Ewanick left Hyundai last March for Nissan before being recruited a few weeks later by GM. Perry was promoted to the marketing vice president's job in May.
Hyundai's strategy for shining its light brightly is what Perry calls "big voices in big places." "What it takes to slice through the advertising clutter is a lot of trust from upper management," he explains. "I enjoy a near carte blanche in making decisions related to how and where we present Hyundai to our customers.
"While some Korean managers have struggled with American culture and marketing, my current boss understands what we're trying to do. At the 2008 Olympics, when Michael Phelps was going for his eighth gold medal, an advertising slot right after his race suddenly opened up. On a Thursday, I suggested that we should seize the opportunity. Gaining consensus took ten minutes, and our ad ran the following Sunday. This is an excellent example of Hyundai Speed.
"To help customer perception catch up with the reality of the product improvements we've achieved, we've been the largest Academy Awards advertiser the last two years. When GM gave up that position, we made the decision in seven days to take their place. We get three or four executives in a room, make up our minds, and move forward.
"Last year, when the Genesis won the North American Car of the Year award, we couldn't wait to deliver that news to Super Bowl viewers. Jeff Goodby, then the head of our advertising agency, noted that many folks -- including some journalists -- didn't know how to correctly pronounce our name. Over a cup of coffee, a few of us scratched out his concept for a message that would address that. Krafcik and others here loved the idea, so it was approved for production. Goodby shot and directed the commercial, and three weeks later it ran during the Super Bowl. We exercised creative license with our competitors in Tokyo and Munich, and all of them took it in stride. That whole project was completed in roughly one-third the amount of time usually required."
Hyundai has also demonstrated an uncanny ability to make lemonade out of the lemons that blossomed during the recent recession. "Our Hyundai Assurance initiative was well received by buyers fearing loss of employment. But others see it as peace of mind, so we've expanded that program to include roadside assistance, the best warranty, and top Initial Quality scores. Eventually, we might even drop the job-loss provision, because Assurance has evolved into strong Hyundai brand credibility and growing confidence in our products."
The word assurance does have a warm and fuzzy ring, so Hyundai is wise to keep it as part of its lexicon. But, considering the solid foundation that Juriga, Krafcik, Perry, and hundreds of other hard-working Hyundai people have laid, another word near and dear to this organization deserves its day in the sun. We'd love to see a hot sports car join today's family of coupes, sedans, and crossovers. Toward that end, here's our suggestion for what to call that new model: Hyundai Speed.

Well, at least Tyrone Taylor and Victor Roache make the Reggie Cleveland Top 100 Prospect All-Stars.
You know it's a rough system when the top prospect has a High 4 realistic role.
Overall Future Potential: 5; reliever (middle) Realistic Role: 5; late-innings reliever (setup) So David Goforth is expected to exceed his OFP? Setup > Middle, right? I think maybe a typo, but maybe not.
Yes; those are reversed.
Goforth's Realistic Role and OFP Role may be reversed.
How is Hellweg's potential "High 5" with Low risk but behind another "High 5" with Moderate risk (Haniger) and a regular 5 with Low risk (Nelson)?
Player specific; nature of the future role. Hellweg is going to be a major league pitcher, but he's likely to end up in the bullpen. Nelson has more value because he has a a better chance to start. Position players tend to have more value than relievers.
So shouldn't Nelson's potential be higher or Hellweg's risk higher or something? If Hellweg is 55/Low he should rank higher than a 50/Low or a 55/Medium, otherwise the scale doesn't work.
Read my response above. It's about future role.
Sorry I'm just trying to understand the system because it's used for all players on all teams. I thought the numbers represented the future role. If better chance to start or being a position player is more valuable shouldn't that be reflected either in the number value of the role or in the risk of achieving it?
The value is expressed in the order in which the players are ranked.
I know he's a ways away, but any love for the portly David Denson?
It's strange to see(and Rivera) move up so far in the rankings from last year with such lackluster offensive showings. Did fielding improve that much or did the space in front of them in the rankings empty out?
Does Gennett have enough bat to off-set the questionable def. at 2nd? What kind of triple stat line would you expect from him?
Two unrelated questions: 1) If Khris Davis was eligible for the 25-and-under list, where would he rank? Any thoughts on him? 2) Any thoughts on Drew Gagnon? Does he have a shot?
Davis would have talked 5th on the U25 list.
Clint Coulter was that bad, huh?
In the mix. Just didn't crack the top 10. Long way to go.
Devin Williams gets some Taijuan Walker comps... no so much for stuff, but for athleticism. Any similarities?
What an awful system. Hopefully the FO is getting ready for a massive rebuild. Hangier and Nelson are the only guys on the list with any realistic hope of being contributors in the future.
Valuable information for my Yadiel-only league!
Great fantasy name: Reverse Haniger
Why do some players get potential tool grades as opposed to those that get stuck with actual grades? For example Devin Williams does not get his actual tools rated.
It seems logical to list his potential tools rather than his current tools, given that Williams is on this list because of the way that he projects to develop. Jimmy Nelson, by comparison, is pretty much what he is going to be. Or at least that is what we are presumably supposed to infer from the respective scouting reports. Basically, I understand "the tools" part of the report as "this guy is on the list because: …."
I'm curious on the Brewer's international scouting. How is the team viewed in the industry when comes to being competitive in signing international free agents? Do the Brewers have a focus in any particular countries?
Any word out there on "Calvin and" Hobbs Johnson? 14th rounder from UNC Chapel Hill dominated in his pro debut, finishing the year in Low A.
Short guy, four pitch mix, average fastball, struggles too throw strikes at times, not much of a prospect for me; maybe a middle relief future.
Thanks Mark, just got around to reading this.

Upcoming Event
Supreme Court to review legality of Obama's NLRB recess appointments
- Kent Hoover
- Washington Bureau Chief
- Email | Twitter | Google
Business groups welcomed the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to review the legality of President Barack Obama's recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board.
Frustrated by Senate inaction on NLRB nominees, Obama used his power to make recess appointments to fill vacancies on the agency's board in January 2012. The Senate, however, was not technically in recess at the time -- it was in a pro forma session, something Republicans insisted on precisely to prevent the president from making recess appointments.
A federal appeals court ruled in January 2013 that these recess appointments were invalid because the Senate was in session, even though nothing happens in a pro forma session. The Supreme Court today agreed to hear the case, which it will consider next term, and decide whether the president's recess-appointment power can be exercised during pro forma sessions.
The case is important for constitutional reasons, because it will affect the balance of power between the executive branch and the legislative branch of government.
But it's also important to business. The NLRB has made hundreds of decisions since Obama made the recess appointments, and has continued to issue rulings since a federal appeals court ruled these appointments were invalid.
If the Supreme Court agrees that Obama lacked the authority to make these appointments, it could invalidate all of these decisions.
Business groups contend the NLRB has favored labor unions over businesses during the Obama administration, instead of begin a neutral arbiter of labor disputes.
The case the Supreme Court will review involves Noel Canning Corp., a Pepsi bottler in Yakima, Wash., which appealed an adverse ruling by NLRB by contending the agency lacked a quorum because the president's recess appointments were invalid.

Good deep ruby-red. Musky aromas of black raspberry, plum, mocha, smoke, minerals, earth and sexy oak. Then penetrating, dry and classic in the mouth, with outstanding sap and grip to its powerful, savory flavors of strawberry, raspberry, smoke, dark chocolate and spices. Impeccably balanced wine with outstanding depth and extract; really spreads out horizontally to saturate the palate. Finishes with extremely fine-grained tannins and great subtlety of fruit. I look forward to watching this outstanding Haut-Bailly unwind over the next 20 years.
Author: Stephen TanzerProfessional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
A prolonged cold but dry winter. This resulted in late budbreak, around 5 April for the first Merlots and mid-April for the Cabernets. Flowering had started during an exceptionally hot week in late May, but was interrupted by wet and cold weather in early June which disrupted fertilization (causing irregular flowering and mixed sized grapes), of the old Merlot grapes in particular. July was consistently hot and sunny inducing early water stress, stopping plant growth which is propitious for the development of small grapes . Fine weather continued until the end of the harvest with alternating fine hot days (28-32 °C) and cool nights. The harvest lasted four weeks: 15 days with six half days and nine full days, starting 22 September with the young Merlot vines. The Cabernet grapes were picked just after, between 5-14 October. As a result of the water deficit, the grapes were extremely small producing a higher phenolic content than in 2009. Vinification: gentle extraction with a controlled fermentation temperature (around 26 °C) to limit the effects of the high alcohol content. Cabernet Sauvignon 62%, Merlot 36%, Cabernet Franc 2%.Barrel sample taken two or three weeks ago. Great tension and liquorice and freshness. Sinewy.

Deep plum/purple, Haut-Bailly's 2010 required some coaxing to appreciate its subtle notes of barbecue smoke, lead pencil shavings and creme de cassis as well as its touches of pomegranate and forest floor. The oak is pushed far into the background and the tannins are extremely silky, but the intensity of the wine is profound and the finish lingers for close to 55 seconds. This wine is ripe yet delicate, powerful yet stylish, and essentially resembles a remarkable fashion design from a house of haute couture. This wine needs a good 7-8 years of bottle age and should keep for 40-50+ years.

Justin Bieber's Pet Monkey, Quarantined in Germany, Is the Latest Unwitting Victim of His Downward Spiral
Last week, as Justin Bieber's brand continued to spiral downward, the 19-year-old pop singer was attempting to re-establish himself as a down-to-Earth teenage multi-millionaire by flying to Munich . . . aboard a private jet . . . with his pet capuchin monkey. Bieber, not one to concern himself with airport formalities like "clothing" or "appropriate documentation for an exotic pet," neglected to obtain a health certificate and other necessary documents for bringing the 14-week animal, named Mally, into the country. In turn, she(?) was immediately confiscated by German authorities on Thursday and sent to a nearby shelter to be kept in quarantine.
Because Mally is not just a monkey but a monkey owned by the premier pop-singing, sexy-hospital-"selfie"-ing, gas-mask-flaunting, harem-pants-wearing teen sensation in this universe, "reporters from around the world" bombarded the shelter with inquiries about the animal. Now, the Associated Press notifies us that Bieber has four weeks to reclaim Mally. If he doesn't, several zoos in the area have kindly elected to take the monkey. Regardless of whether he claims Mally, Bieber will reportedly face a fine that could be as high as $17,000, along with costs related to the quarantine.
The latest bit of negative Bieber P.R., however, does not end at trying-to-smuggle-his-pet-monkey-without-proper-documentation-into-Germany. The singer is also being reprimanded by both third-party vets and Mally's own quarantine station for acquiring such a young monkey as a pet. In a statement, the shelter said that the animal should not have been taken away from its mother until it was a year old. Adding insult to more publicity injury, the shelter also revealed that Mally "seemed nervous and confused at being in a cell—and had refused to eat at first." Tragically hilarious captions and photos posted by the Daily Mail indicate that Mally will eat only if given a stuffed animal—in this case, a cat—to cuddle with as a surrogate parent. In the most awesome photo of the set (above), Malley mounts said stuffed cat while placing a single paw on an iPad that displays the cover of Justin Bieber's album Believe.
For those looking to buy a Bieber-like pet, do note that all authorities quoted warn that acquiring a pet monkey at 9 or 10 weeks old—no matter how cute it is or how much you loved The Hangover Part II—is not recommended.

no laughter here...not only are these folk art but highly collectable. I have a nice collection large and small. Some of the jewelry put on these when they were a popular handicraft in the 70's are now making these very very expensive to purchase. I don't collect the ones with the lights but I do collect the others. ginger Here's a quick link to a few of mine I have both collected and made... |

The light up one that is listed on ebay has been viewed 569 times! And has one bid for $15. - I like it but some of that old jewelry is pretty valuable these days, not sure I'd include it in a tree - great use for the zillions of costume earrings that are around, though. Suzan J |

I wasn't sure anyone was following the live-blogging here. I know there are lurkers, but most readers don't take the time to comment or e-mail. And that's fine. But, a few of you have e-mailed or commented here or at TalkLeft expressing appreciation for the coverage. So, I'll continue for a while. It would be a lot easier with daily trial transcripts, but those are too expensive for this blogger. I'll be at the courthouse live blogging the testimony in about 45 minutes. Hope you will check back. I'll include links to the mainstream media for coverage of the parts I missed this morning.

We will be undertaking a new home construction and plan on installing a non-cat castiron woodstove in the living area. Estimate that we need to heat 1800 sq ft. Local dealer has recommended Vermont Castings Encore, HearthStone Shelbourne, or DutchWest 2479. I looked at Hearth.com ratings and the Vermont Castings stoves had really mixed reviews, presumably due to a change in ownership? We also wondered about the top-load feature on this stove...doesn't the rising heat singe your eyebrows?! The DutchWest is the lowest price and offers side-loading. I like the look of the HearthStone Shelbourne, but it does not have the side-load option. Anyone have experience with any of these stoves? Thanks in advance! |
Follow-Up Postings:
No. But we have friends with a Hearthstone (not sure of the model) and they love it. If you really like the look of soapstone check out the Woodstock Soapstone stoves (all are side loaders). All use catalytic combustors, but once you understand what it does and how easy it is to use it, it really becomes a non issue. |
Here is a link that might be useful: more soapstone options

Hey Guys,
I have read a lot about nutrient film techniques lately, and am ready to get started. I have my lettuce seedlings started in pearlite, and they are about a week old. I understand that many people use rockwool and oasis cubes to start their seeds as well. Can you guys give me some advice on methods of putting the plants in the channel? The first thought I had was that I could wash off the pearlite and put the plants in neoprene discs and suspend the discs above the nutrient solution. I also thought that I could set the roots in the nutrient and let the plants fall over. This seems less than ideal. I could set the pots filled with pearlite in the nutrient solution, but I have not heard of anybody doing this. In the future, is it best to start out with something like oasis cubes? Any advice is appreciated. - jason |

Obama's speech hints at the ultimate strategic importance of Pakistan, rather than Afghanistan.
Pakistan created the Taliban because it wanted a friendly power on its western border and an end to the chaos of battling mujahedeen factions that were reducing Afghanistan to ruin. Pakistan's greatest fear and resentment against the United States is based on the conception that the U.S. will leave Afghanistan in chaos again, and leave Pakistan to clean up the mess. Until Pakistan is sure of the U.S., it will want to continue hedging its bets with the Afghan Taliban. Pakistan doesn't want to see India attempting to fill any vacuum that a departing America might leave.
Today Obama finds himself in the same shoes as the Soviet Union's Mikhail Gorbachev, with a war he didn't start but believes he cannot afford to lose. Obama dismissed the Vietnam parallel, but must fear, in his heart, that the Russian war in Afghanistan is worryingly similar.
The cliche is that presidents need a war to be considered great. But since World War II, wars have devastated presidencies. Truman became ensnared in Korea. Vietnam broke the back of both the Johnson and Nixon presidencies, and Iraq brought great discredit onto George W. Bush.
A major question is, will Obama's escalation to three times the force that he inherited from the Bush administration help stabilize or ultimately destabilize neighboring Pakistan? Obama hopes the surge will help do the former and hinder the latter. But is he setting goals that are beyond our ability to achieve at a reasonable cost, the very thing he said he would avoid?
Afghanistan's Hamid Karzai may reign over a weak and corrupt government, but he is a tower of strength compared to Pakistan's pro-American president, Ali Zardari, whose political weakness could see him out of office soon, and whose personal corruption could see him in jail. Civilian control of government is far healthier in Afghanistan than in Pakistan.
Obama promised a new deal with Pakistan, a partnership of mutual interest, mutual respect and mutual trust. It will not be easy to achieve.
For 100 years, from the 1840s to the 1940s, Britain fought three wars in Afghanistan and numerous campaigns on the frontier — the raison d'etre being not for Afghanistan itself, but for the defense of India, of which Pakistan was then a part.

All We Are
Double Six / Domino exclusive vinyl edition sold here: 180gm heavyweight LP plus bonus 7" featuring two exclusive tracks 'Just Give It To Me' & 'Reach'.
We are proud to announce the debut album release from All We Are, on 5th January 2015.
All We Are are a global gathering made up of Ireland's Richard 'O Flynn (drums, vocals), Norway's Guro Gikling (bass, vocals) and Brazil's Luis Santos (guitar, vocals), who met at university in Liverpool.
Written initially in a cabin in the isolated Norwegian mountains, with follow-up sessions in a secluded cottage in North Wales, the album was finished and perfected in their studio in a disused school in Liverpool. The record was then recorded in London with producer Dan Carey (Bat For Lashes, M.I.A, Hot Chip).
A total democracy, the band write all music and lyrics together. Inspired by a shared love of hip-hop and soul music, Guro calls their sound "psychedelic boogie".
Born of long, late nights, dreamy melodies, supple psychedelics and gorgeous midnight disco grooves – this is the sublime, swirling sound of All We Are.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
Nice for the price Id recc'd it for low pile carpet.
I own the 12 amp mcug471 panny" 25' corded vacuum. I like it, that said if youre like me and scaling down from a vacuum shops $3-400 dollar higher grade model this one will seem cheap and not as powerful. I know duh! LOL I previously owned a simplicity 7250 (made by panasonic) it was awesome I swear it cleaned the under side of the rug from top LOL. But its old and needs a thorough maintenance upgrade and its too costly for its age. (at least for now in this economy)I thought Id try this one because I wanted a panny' since they run quieter then most store bought vacs', I live in an apartment and tend to need to use it late (my neighbors say they never hear it!). This mcug471 is very quiet in fact quieter then my better one I retired, you can have a conversation without yelling. Its very plastic compared to the durable plastic the higher grade models are made of, I think if I bump it around too much Its a goner as the wheels are mounted in cheapo plastic or appear to be as well as the rest of it. ( the higher price ones can be fixed completey all over). Cleaning bare floors needs done w/ tools and can make me bend over more then old vacuum, but since I can use my old tools from old vac this works okay for me.That said it does a nice job, I have low shag rug from eighties and carpet runners which it transitions too very easily unless you have fringes but theyd all choke that up. ITs not heavy to me because my higher grade panny' was really heavy..they prob' are heavier then most tho' which is why the thing is quieter then the high pitch the really cheapos have. The cord winder is awesome, I hope its durable and doesnt wear on cord, I really like the auto wind up function. The tools are great especially the power paw thing...its a small tool with its own rotating brush you put on tube to do couch or other and its suction is great! The only other tools are a small brush and one ext pipe.Its an easy vac to use and store, and I like the hepa filter. My old panny bags fit and tools (if I use the extended hose I have from my old panny I have to put it in the hole where you connect the hose on the vacc of this one) I clean car this way. The hose on this vacuum is very flexible, not cheap or stiff, will wear well I think, my expensive old one had a stiffer hose that wore. I like the grip area on back to lift it with, helps not wear on handle. Time will tell on wear of this unit but it is really nice for the price. I cant be sure how it would do on higher pile rugs, I think Id rather one with manual adjust vac height if I had thicker carpets. It comes with one bag installed (mine did anyway) PLEASE check to be sure the bag is fully seated on connection inside..the factory had mine lose at bottom of bag and dirt was flying everywhere inside. Discovered it after I purchased high filter bags and installed them.NOTE: Installing bags is a little tricky, you really have to be sure its seated at bottom of connection the way its made makes it hard but if youre aware of it its not a big deal to do.If you cant spend a ton on a vacuum (300 and up in specialty shops) then this one is a good medium, I do recc'd it. VACUUM USES THE FOLLOWING BAGS BELTS: ub8 belts, and style u bags (u3/6). For more info please click the "view details tab" on product here at epinions :O)
Amount Paid (US$): 150.00

Gear Question
Some people say these bindings are too...
Some people say these bindings are too soft. Does that mean they would be too soft to handle a 60 foot booter?
Kris McGregor
I have had my Contacts for two years now and I love them. Smooth, solid flex throughout the straps and high-back. 18% of the binder actually touching the board to allow for a more natural flex of the board. Now this being said, they are softer than the Force's or Data's, but not by an extreme amount. I like to pair mine up with a lil stiffer boot (I have a pair of Lashed and TM2's that I switch up for different nights). I ride mainly park and I hit 50's no problem at all. No wash out, no "omg im way too loose to ride out", none of that. If you mainly hit booters tho, I would say go for the Force's as they will give you that little extra to help out with landings. Ppl also say they are super soft bec they are prob riding a reverse cambered board, with softer boots too. So obv the ride is gonna feel loose and soft bec of all of that. I do not ride a reverse cambered board (Rome Machine), and like I said switch it up from a softer boot to stiffer. You will be good hitting 60's with these tho. Just pair them up with a stiffer boot and you will not wash out. Ps... these are really comfy and a great binder. 'Park specific', yet I take them from park to trees to steeps to bk. Hope this helps bro

Anthony J. Garcia on the 1974 murders of six Chicano activists and his play Cuarenta y Ocho
Forty years ago, bombs exploded in Boulder, killing six Chicano activists. Their deaths are still shrouded in mystery: Who killed them and why? Were they plotting a bombing? Did the police and FBI entrap them? Were they murdered? Su Teatro's Tony Garcia has written Cuarenta y Ocho, a play that explores these questions and more. In advance of tonight's opening, Westword spoke with Garcia about his fictional work and the actual events of forty years ago. Courtesy of Su Teatro Anthony J. Garcia's play Cuarenta y Ocho explores the deaths of six Chicano activists in 1974.
See also: Anthony J. Garcia on Ludlow: El Grito de Las Minas
Westword: Talk about the upcoming production.
Anthony J. Garcia: The production is called Cuarenta y Ocho, which means 48. It is set against a background of two bombings that took place in Boulder in 1974. They took place 48 hours apart. It's set against the time between the first one and the second one.
At the time there was a lot of student unrest, especially within the Chicano community then. There was a takeover of Temporary Building One. In the first explosion, two people were killed. Two days later, there was another explosion. Nobody really knows what took place there. There was a grand jury that was convened afterwards, and the grand jury sealed the findings. Then FBI files from there were disappeared, or were gone, so nobody really knows what took place or who did what.
The speculation was that the six people who were killed were getting ready to blow up something, and they ended up blowing up themselves. It was in a period of time when there were a lot of other possibilities that could have happened. There are a lot of unanswered questions in there. I don't think that the play will answer those questions, because the one thing we know is that this play that I wrote is fictional. I don't know what the truth is, but I know this is not the truth. This is pretty much what I made up. It's set against that background and it covers that tension, that possibility of what else could be happening.
The Chicano activists felt that there wasn't enough investigation looking into the possibility that somebody else had set the bombs and that these people were actually assassinated and that the bombs were exploded. There are a lot of inconsistencies in a lot of the conversations, but the police seem to latch onto that one argument and then nothing else was ever really explored. It just kind of went away.
That's what Cuarenta y Ocho is about. It's a drama. It begins with an explosion and it ends with an explosion, so you know the beginning and the end and can only speculate about what took place in the middle.
Talk about the tensions in the Chicano movement at the time.
It's complex. The movement drew people across a broad spectrum. There were people who believed and had interest mildly in getting involved. Some people were heavily involved. Some people believed that nonviolence was an absolute. This is a big question in the United Farm Workers movement. People were very angry with what was taking place and they wanted to retaliate. Cesar Chavez really held the line on nonviolence. On the other hand, you had people who believed that it was important to send a message that we were living in a territory that had formerly been Mexico and that we were treated like second-class citizens, and there had to be a change. There had to be a much more serious conversation than was taking place.
I don't know who did what. All I get is information from people telling me what other people did. (Laughs.) Nobody tells me about what they did, right? There was a definite rhetoric about how we need to do something. "We need to send a message. We need to send a wakeup call. I want the police to feel as intimidated as they made us feel." Actually, that's a line from my play. It's all speculation.
There were so many loose ends. It's possible that people did things on their own. It's possible that people were set up to do some things. There is a conversation and enough evidence to indicate that authorities were willing to allow them to get further and further into this kind of stuff with the idea that it would just blow up in their faces. That's part of the conversation, too.
People are not going to walk away with an answer to any of this stuff.
There was a real force recognizing that there were forces across the world that were not exactly thrilled with what the U.S. was doing and what those in power were doing. There's a great quote that I picked up. It says: "We seem to accept violence by those in power and to be appalled by violence from those outside of power." I think this is part of that same conversation.

Features By Kevin Carr on September 11, 2009 | Be the First To CommentGremlins of all kinds invade the Magical Studio in the Sky. It's either a sign of the apocalypse or a sign of bad movies in September. The first wave caused a glitch in Neil's gender clarification surgery, so he had to return to the Netherlands to reclarify. Fortunately, David Medsker from Bullz-eye.com filled in.

Snobs in Arizona call Tempe home
PHOENIX -- Scottsdale, take note: The snobbiest midsize city in Arizona is ... Tempe.
The real-estate blog Movoto.com pored over all sorts of numbers for its criteria of the top snobby cities in the nation: median household income, percentage of population with a college degree, performing arts per capita, country clubs and private schools, among them.
Midsize generally describes a city with a population between 75,000-300,000.
All that placed Tempe (population 166,842) at No. 27 in the nation. A half-dozen California cities crowded the top 10, with Pasadena looking down on everyone else.

'Lost' Star Evangeline Lilly Turns Author
Since leaving Lost behind, Evangeline Lilly hasn't given up acting as she once threatened to do, but making films like The Hobbit and Real Steel has allowed her to follow her other pursuits, including writing. The actress's first book, the cautionary children's tale The Squickerwonkers hits bookstores on November 18. (July 22, 2014)
While Richard Linklater was making "School of Rock," "Bad News Bears," "Before Sunset" and "Bernie," he was also quietly making "Boyhood," a film that's production spanned 12 years. It's an unprecedented experiment, one that's met with unqualified raves as Linklater follows one boy, Mason (newcomer Ellar Coltrane) from age 5 to 18. (July 11, 2014)
Several movies hitting theaters this summer are based on terrific books, including spy thrillers, YA bestsellers, and biographies. Get a head start on the theater crowd with this intriguing, vacation-ready reading list. (July 3, 2014)

This week the Newton County Water Authority said it wants to sit down with the county and work on a solution to a problem before taking on a new venture. We believe this meeting should happen.
Last week in our editorial about the reappointment for a year of county Attorney Tommy Craig we said that none of the commissioners gave a reason for voting for Craig.
The Covington-Newton County Chamber of Commerce held its annual year-end banquet this past week.
The Newton County BOC held their first meeting of 2015 last week and among its agenda items was its annual appointments. One of those appointments was that of county attorney, and the reappointment was Tommy Craig.
Last week we were shocked by the violent attack on the office of a French satirical newspaper called Charlie Hebdo.
As we start the New Year we have a major dilemma facing us in in Newton County and that is the future of the Newton Medical Center.
We think it's safe to say that for most people, 2014 was not the best of years. For those of you that it has been good for, we are pleased for you and hope 2015 is even better.
It's hard to believe that we have less than two weeks left until Christmas day … after all we been reminded that it was coming since August at many places.
Last week the Newton County Water and Sewerage Authority stepped up to the plate and hit a home run.
The way we see it there is plenty of blame to go around in regards to the Ferguson issue.
Page 1 of 1
Here in Newton County, we have experienced the very lowest of the current economic malaise that has swept the nation.
The gloom and despair can be seen on faces throughout the community.
There is no question that this has been a tough winter here in Newton County and Social Circle.
The residents of Nelson Heights received good news this week.
The Smart Growth Newton County board of directors is disappointed by the Covington City Council's refusal to approve pursuing a nonbinding grant for funds to aid in conversion of unused rail lines in the city to walking and biking trails, should the rail lines be purchased. The grant investigation would have cost the city nothing; it would have simply added information to help the council weigh the merits and costs of trail use of the rail line.
Lyrics were always the hardest thing for me to master as a kid. The Beatles invaded American rock-n-roll in December 1963, and appeared on "The Ed Sullivan Show" in February '64. Invited to join a fledgling band, I discovered how challenging memorizing lyrics to a myriad of tunes really is.
"I support extending unemployment benefits, COBRA [health] benefits, flood insurance, highway bill fix, doc fix, small business loans, and distant network television for satellite viewers," Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Ky.).
Jim Bunning spent 15 years in major league baseball pitching for the Detroit Tigers and the Philadelphia Phillies. During that time he was a solid, all-around player winning more than 200 games.
Last Sunday we were proud to once again recognize the importance of agribusiness to Newton County; little did we know that the chancellor and the Board of Regents of The University System of Georgia were planning a broadside attack against the future of a segment of our economy that provides more than $70 billion in revenue in Georgia and employs more than 69,000 workers.
In these tough economic times the university system is under pressure to cut expenses so the state can have a balanced budget.
This time of year, we are not only excited that the first warmer days of spring are just around the corner, but also that the Arts Association in Newton County's spring series is ramping up too.
During the month of March the Arts Association sponsors the True Colours Art Exhibit at the Newton County Library. This exhibit features work from all grades of Newton County students and we are always amazed at the talent of the young people within our boarders.
There was a time when communities like ours knew their congressman. He usually attended all the major functions, patted babies on their head and even made speeches at Rotary and Kiwanis meetings.
Then politicians figured out a way that they could have their party, and themselves if they played their cards right, stay in power for as long as they chose.
We think it's worthwhile that the Newton County Board of Commissioners is reviewing their ethics policies.
The reason this is even necessary is the abuse of gifts of every sort by politicians across the country.
"When you concentrate on agriculture and industry and are frugal in expenditures, Heaven cannot impoverish your state."
The county BOC also is considering passing an anti-tethering ordinance.
Residents of Newton County, in one way or another, have all felt the effects of the economic downturn mainly caused by the collapse of the housing industry.
This past week the Covington City Council voted to purchase 15 external defibrillators for the Covington Police Department.
Georgia's legislators have gotten themselves into another fine mess with the state budget. The question is how do they get themselves out of it?

Respond to Review of Phoenix Garden
by MikeAdams
Review: Last night I had an amazing vegan meal at Phoenix Garden. It was a bit slow so I also had an opportunity to share with the owners. If you are in the area do yourself a big, healthy favor and visit with them. Phoenix has so many delicious offerings on the menu. I am looking forward to my next visit to the Richmond area.

Adding Logos to Photos is Easy with New App Watermark It from Best Branding Apps LLC
Photos with logos and brand messages are the advertising of the social media world. Mobile app Watermark It from Best Branding Apps makes it easy for anyone to create these pictures and share them on leading social sites in minutes.
Belfast, Maine (PRWEB) May 09, 2013
A new mobile app, Watermark It, from developer Best Branding Apps, can add a logo to a photo and upload it to Facebook or Instagram in less than minute.
"In the past, adding a logo or brand image to a photo has been a complicated, technical and time consuming task," says Tim Wilson of Best Branding Apps. "Our goal is to make it easy for anyone to perform this task and quickly post the finished pictures on leading sharing sites."
Watermark It performs a number of other functions as well. It can add text to photos and includes options for changing fonts, colors and opacity. Watermark It makes it easy to mount a photo on a background or to create photo collages by mounting and arranging multiple photos on backgrounds.
Several ready-made items are included. Standard watermarks like PROOF, SAMPLE and CONFIDENTIAL as well as symbols such as the copyright circle or a CENSORED tag can be instantly added to any image. The banners are provided in English and 8 additional languages; Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish and Danish.
Watermark It includes ready-made banners that say Season's Greetings, Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary; so it is easy to turn photos into unique greetings to share with a friend or client. Upload finished images to Shutterfly and turn them into unique and special gifts.
All of these items, the text, logos and ready-made images, can be positioned, re-sized and oriented using one´s fingers. When the photo is done, touching the Next button finishes the process.
The one touch upload feature will save, tweet, email or post the finished photo to Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest or Flickr in seconds.
Watermark It is a professional grade tool for photographers, social media managers, and web designers, who need to promote brands and protect content. It is also fun for consumers who want an easy way to add text to photos and make photo collages or memes.
The app is offered in both LITE and PRO versions and is available on iTunes.
More information including videos of the features is available at http://watermarkitapp.com/ including specs for brand images and a brand image preparation service.
BEST BRANDING APPS LLC builds tools that promote brands and protect content.
