"Do you have proof of that?" Wright asked. Lettieri calls it detective's instinct, but she knew with that question that Wright was already aware of the fudged numbers. He said he'd look into it.
Lettieri wasn't reassigned to a different sergeant; in fact, the next day she received an email from Montgomery asking why a dent in her squad car hadn't been repaired. "I knew my days were numbered," she says. "I knew they were going to ride me, set me up." Under extreme pressure from her superiors, that night she was hospitalized with severe chest pains. Wright called her husband and demanded she return to the office any paperwork she had at home even though she had no cases in immediate need of work.
Lettieri never went back to work, and she resigned a few weeks later. No one ever called her to ask her to stay. "Wouldn't you think when I put my notice in that somebody would have called me and said, 'Look, why are you leaving?'" Odder still because the month before, Wright had nominated her for deputy of the year, writing a glowing letter highlighting three high-profile cases she'd helped solve, including the capture of both a serial rapist and a child molester.
"They wanted me out of there because I knew what was going on," she says. At the beginning of February, she received a letter from James Knight, a captain in the district, indicating her allegations would be investigated. She never heard from anyone again. (She has related all her experiences to the Broward SAO. Through the BSO media office, New Times asked Montgomery and Wright to respond to Lettieri's allegations, as well as other assertions in this story. BSO declined to do so.)
Lettieri wasn't the only one driven out of Pompano for raising a fuss.
Allen Jackson, trim, energetic and now a full-time pastor, was fired from BSO last year. In a corner of his office at his storefront church in Lauderdale Lakes stand three cardboard boxes of plaques and awards he received during his 10 years as a community policing liaison with Pompano's black community.
Back in 1999, when Jenne was courting Pompano Beach city commissioners to allow BSO to take over the police department, Carney invited Jackson downtown, where the colonel regaled him with the wonders of Powertrac. Many blacks weren't happy about the prospect of BSO coming in, and Carney asked Jackson to spread the word about how Powertrac would make deputies accountable. Suitably impressed by the pitch, Jackson did his part to smooth the way for the take-over.
But by 2001, he started hearing grumbling about Powertrac from deputies, though he didn't take it seriously until a close friend of his on the force confided: "Allen, I can't take this. I have integrity. I'm not going to fudge numbers or change things. I'm not going to bow down and cater to Ken Jenne and go to jail for him." His friend retired from BSO.
But it was the suicide of a close friend that truly pitted him against BSO. Shortly before a Powertrac meeting on May 28, 2002, Sgt. Raphael Wolfe drove his squad car to BSO headquarters, parked, and shot himself twice in the chest.
Wolfe and Jackson had lunched together frequently, and the sergeant often stopped into Jackson's second floor office to complain about Powertrac and the pressure to alter numbers. Wolfe asked Jackson to intercede on his behalf by calling Danny Wright, who had by this time been promoted to downtown headquarters. The two had been friends at the Pompano department, but Wright brushed Jackson off.
Two weeks before his suicide, Wolfe and Jackson lunched at an Italian restaurant. "This fucking Powertrac is going to kill me," Wolfe told his friend, who was alarmed and suggested he needed to get out.
Losing a friend like that was tough, and it bothered Jackson all the more when Jenne appeared on the local news deflecting Powertrac as a cause in Wolfe's suicide.
An internal affairs investigation was launched by BSO, and Jackson informed Wright that he wanted to be interviewed. He was never contacted. The conclusion of that report downplayed the role of Powertrac even though the entire affair should have sparked an agencywide look into the integrity of the system.
"I requested to see the sheriff on two occasions," Jackson says. "I was blocked. Nothing happened with my first request. I was given a verbal reprimand the second time."
Jackson, who's black, believes he faced a backlash as a result. He endured retaliation, partly based on race, he claims. He was asked to perform duties that others with his same job title, but who were not black, were not asked to do. The final straw, he says, was being ordered to accompany deputies responding to 911 calls in squad cars, which he balked at doing because he was not a cop and hadn't been trained as one. He filed several complaints alleging harassment on basis of race, but failed to prevail. In early 2005 he was transferred to Lauderdale Lakes, and he knew the end was coming. He was fired in July for insubordination.

Visualize Your Backlinks with Google Fusion Tables. Data can be boring.
I'm sorry, but it's true. Don't get me wrong, I love a good spreadsheet as much as I love a good novel, but whenever I can get away with it, I'd much rather just see the movie. Visualization and presentation have never been more important then they are today. Keyword Research - Using Categories to Make Your Process More Actionable. The author's posts are entirely his or her own (excluding the unlikely event of hypnosis) and may not always reflect the views of Moz.
One of the earliest and arguably most important parts of the SEO process is keyword research. Keyword research helps you answer that all important question, "In what quantities do people use search engines to find the products and services on my website? ". Your research process will ultimately govern the method you use to structure your website, inspire your content strategy and kick start your link building campaigns. Excel and Google Docs: Tools for the Ultimate SEO Dashboard. I love SEO tools.
I'm sort of a pack-rat when it comes to Google Docs tools and Excel add-ins. I went absolutely nuts when Tom Critchlow posted his Google Docs SEO tutorial on distilled. Since then, I've rolled a few tools of my own and collected pretty much anything to do with SEO and spreadsheets since then. Competitive Analysis in Under 60 Seconds Using Google Docs. Faced with a new client, and having established a list of keywords they need to target, you want to evaluate the competition to find out what sites are dominating the SERPs for these keywords.
However... being an SEO you're a busy guy (or gal), and you need it done right now. I've built a Google Docs tool to automagically do exactly that and this post will walk you through it. The basis for this tool comes from a report in this linkbuilding post on YOUmoz which contained a neat little 'SERP Saturation' report. I don't know how Stephen made his snazzy looking report (he's now shared a few details in this comment), but in response to a few people asking about his I thought I'd put together a tool. Excel functions for fetching Google Analytics data. How to Build an Advanced Keyword Analysis Report in Excel - YouMoz.
Analyzing keyword performance, discovering new keyword opportunities, and determining which keywords to focus efforts on can be painstaking when you have thousands of keywords to review.
With keyword metrics coming from all over the place (Analytics, Adwords, Webmaster Tools, etc.), it's challenging to analyze all the data in one place regularly without having to do a decent amount of manual data manipulation. In addition, dependent on your site's business model, tying revenue metrics to keyword data is a whole other battle. This post will walk you through a solution to these keyword analysis issues and provide some tips on how you can slice and dice your data in wonderful ways. Playing Around with ImportXML in Google Spreadsheets.
Put me in front of a Mac and it's almost as if I never learned to use a computer.
Put me in front of Google Spreadsheets and all of the time I've spent working with Excel feels a little like time wasted, and not in a good way. I'm just not very used to a spreadsheet that isn't Excel. Unafraid of a challenge, I recently decided to give Google's (exceptional) importXML, importFEED and importHTML functions a try – the ability to fetch information from the web to retrieve the data you need. Mostly to make an interesting blog post, but partly out of envy that Excel doesn't have this function.
It's frustrating trying to get XML data into Microsoft Excel – unless you've got the time and patience to build some basic Macros or VBscript for your requirements. Tips and Tricks – Excel and SEO: Word Search Formula. The following Excel formula is useful for keyword research, perhaps one of the most important steps in search engine optimization.
You should always conduct keyword research prior to writing content for your website. By identifying relevant keywords with high traffic and low competition, you stand a greater chance of attracting visitors interested in your content. The word search formula enables us to sort a spreadsheet depending on whether words exist in an adjacent cell. Think of it as a full text search on a column. But instead of just seeing which cells match, we can also interact with the results. Using Excel for SEO – the Grand Collection of Tips. You probably know that I am a big Excel fanatic (though not an expert).
To me, Excel has always been the ultimate SEO, guest blogging and productivity tool. I've been collecting Excel tutorials for years and this post lists the most useful (yet, the least geeky) of them: no matter which SEO task you have come across, chances are you'll find one of the following tutorials handy: Microsoft Excel for SEOs. P.ost. How To Build Agile SEO Tools Using Google Spreadsheets.

Wedding bells bring in the New Year
Congratulations go out to Beryl and Eddie for tying the knot on New Years Eve 2010. The Wedding was a well planned affair in St Mary's Church, Ash Vale followed by an evening reception at the Tithe Barn, Loseley House, Godalming. The day was attended by friends and family enjoying the celebrations with the evening drawing to a close with a rendition of that time honoured classic Auld Lang Syne to see in the New Year. We wish them both every happiness in their life together.

Russtcb's forum GNREVO is good. I should probably post more there but I have to keep fighting the good fight around here!
Thank you! It's definitely one of the smaller forums but I think the user base is one of the best. I'd love to see you stop back by when you get a chance.
I think there's enough room out there for us all to share active members. I've never expected users to post at one place or the other but I get the idea that some admins (NOT mygnr) very much feel that way.
I post on htgth occasionally and you can't deny it's a great source for immediate show updates simply due to Jarmo being at all of the shows. As for the official forum, I honestly can't even remember the last time I posted there, though I do check in maybe once every couple of weeks.

Test for Gold
Name: Joyce Status: other Grade: 9-12 Location: FL Country: N/A Date: May 2006
Is there any kind of household test to do to see if gold is fake? I have had some gold given to me that i would like to test. I can only find 14k stamped on some pieces, and I cannot tell what the other pieces are stamped with.
NOTE: The words karat and carat are not the same thing. Karat works the idea of purity of a substance and carat is expressing how much weight in a gemstone. One carat is 200 milligrams.
There are a couple of ways that you may use depending upon the particular piece you have. First, however, the "karat" value loosely indicates the gold content: 24k generally meaning greater than 99% gold. However, the "karat" value differs from country to country. Also the alloying metals are not the same: Ag, Cu, Zn, Ni, Pb, and Pt are used. Alloying gold is not always meant to make it fake.
Pure gold is very soft, and in most applications, such as jewelry it is too soft to be used pure. A second way is to measure the specific gravity (density). Pure gold has a density of 19.32 gm/cm^3 while 14k gold has a density between 12.9 and 14.6 gm/cm^3, depending upon the composition of the alloy. Legend has it that Archimedes discovered the principle of buoyancy by measuring the difference in the density of the king's new crown using this method. An experienced jeweler should be able to distinguish the pieces at little or no charge. Below are some interesting websites on gold and its alloys.
Vince Calder
Since gold is so valuble you certainly would want to stay away from any chemical tests that may exist. The easiest way is to wear the piece and see if you get discoloration of your skin or the piece of jewlery. If you do, then the piece is very low in gold content (most likely gold plated) and probably high in nickel or copper. You can also tell a lot just by looking at it. Real gold should be a nice soft yellow and it should not be very shiny. It will certainly have a sheen to it, but it should not shine. You can also stick a pin/needle into the gold. If the pin breaks then it is not real gold--gold is soft and maleable.
Some might suggest that you take the density of the jewlery, but the problem is that your jewlery is not pure gold. 14K gold is 14 parts gold and 10 parts other metals. Since you do not know exactly what those other metals might be, you cannot tell by taking the density. For a chemical test, which I do not suggest, you can scrap a small portion of the jewlery off with a razor blade. You can get HCl (hydrochloric acid) or H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) at a hardware store and drop the scrappings into a small amount of the acid--use a piece of glass to do this on. If the metal dissolves completly, then there is no gold. Whatever does not dissolve is gold. Just be careful, acid can seriously burn you, eat through your clothes, damage most things that it touches and can even eat away your drain pipes! Remember that some of it should be expected to dissolve, since 14K gold is only 58% pure.
If you can stop by or call some local jewlery shops, they might be able to perform a gold test for you by taking an X-ray of the piece. The charge for this, if any, should be less than $20.

Music City "forward lateral" Miracle
We don't just lose games, no, they lose in the absolute most painful way possible.
One minute I thought we had the game. Just keep riding Fred Jackson, burn the clock and win.
Nope. Not the Buffalo Bills. Does it matter that we almost beat them for the first time since 2003? Nope.
Another special teams play debacles the Bills.
I hate football.

That was sick. My condolences.
But He loves Kyle Orton...
In all seriousness, I'm not a Bills fan but that was horrible to watch. Edwards and Jackson and the O line up to that point did a great job. That really sucks. Sorry to Buffalo and their fans. At least the team looks better than people thought.
Painful to watch at the end. I really thought the Bills would pull it out.
Good teams find ways to win.
Bad teams find ways to lose.

A man in Topeka , Kansas decided to write a book about Churches around the country. He started by flying to San Francisco and started working east from there.
Going to a very large church, he began taking photographs and making notes. He spotted a golden telephone on the vestibule wall and was intrigued with a sign, which read 'Calls: $10,000 a minute.'
Seeking out the pastor he asked about the phone and the sign. The pastor answered that this golden phone is, in fact, a direct line to heaven and if he pays the price he can talk directly to God.
The man thanked the pastor and continued on his way. As he continued to visit churches in Seattle , Dallas, St. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, and around the United States, he found more phones, with the same sign, and the same answer from each pastor.
Finally, he arrived in Massachusetts. Upon entering a church in Boston, MA. He saw the usual golden telephone.
But THIS time, the sign read "Calls: .35 cents."
Fascinated, he asked to talk to the pastor, "Reverend, I have been in cities all across the country and in each church I have found this golden telephone and have been told it is a direct line to Heaven and that I could talk to God, but in the other churches the cost was $10,000 a minute. Your sign reads only .35 cents a call. Why? Why?"
The pastor, smiling benignly, replied :
"Son, you're in Boston, Massachusetts now, home of the Boston Red Sox, the Patriots, Celtics, Bruins and Boston College! You're in God's Country. It's a local call."
Richard Seymour = the best defensive player that NE had.
I fully agree.
Only God would make a team lose 4 straight super bowls.

Maori WeaponsMaori were experts at ambushing their enemy and all warriors were extremely deft at the use of and the carving of these Maori weapons. They were adept at appearing and disappearing into the thick New zealand forest. On visits to New Zealand many cultural shows display in depth how these weapons were originally used. They can be fascinating to watch as the traditional clothing is worn and many Maori who demonstrate these weapons have learned their skills from generations of there own family (or whanau) which makes the whole experience very authentic.Traditionally they were made of wood, bone, or stone and crafted of three basic shapes. The carvings below are the Patu or Mere, the sickle shaped Wahaika and the violin shaped Kotiate. All were used in short thrusting jabs rather than downward blows which would be to slow in combat. Great New Zealand Souvenirs & Gifts. WahaikaThese Weapons were made of wood, bone, stone and greenstone. They were used where quick in-fighting action required thrusting jabs and were held by a thong of dog skin through a hole in the handle and around the wrist and thumb. The below Wahaika can have a name or similar engraved on the base for an extra $35.00 NZD. When selecting the add to basket button simply select from the drop down "plus engraving".
Patu or MereWarriors using these weapons in battle relied heavily on quick footwork and agility. Typical strike zones for warriors included the temple, the jaw and the ribs. In each case the leading edge of the weapon was used, rather than a downward clubbing action. A secondary development was the introduction of a hole to accommodate the wrist chord, which became necessary to stop blood or sweat drenched hand slipping up the weapon during the thrust. Also The Kotiate were prized weapons on the battlefield, as well as being favored by many chiefs during speech making. According to popular tradition, these notches were used to entwine the intestines and other organs of the vanquished enemy. (Kotiate means' to cut liver')
Full Size TaiahaThe Taiaha sent may differ slightly from the photograph as each one is carved by hand and differences are inevitable. The spear shaped Taiaha is the best known of the Maori weapons. It varies considerably in length from 1.2 to 1.9 meters. It can be described best in three sections. The first, Rau or long striking blade usually between 6 and 7cm wide. Second is the shaft which is oval in cross section. Last is the Proximal end, with an arero or tongue extending out from the mouth in the Maori gesture of defiance. The arero formed the extreme end of the weapon. When advancing to engage an opponent a warrior often assumed a guard, with the Taiaha held either vertically or slightly diagonally across the body, the blade uppermost and the arero facing the ground. During fighting, feints and passes were constantly employed, and experienced fighters continually repositioned themselves hoping to detect an opening for a strike. All the while guarding themselves against an attack. A favored ploy was to feint an attack on an enemy's torso or face with the tongue end of the Taiaha, then when the opponent recoiled, reverse arms and strike at the top of his skull with the edge of the Rau. Such a blow could cave in the top of a skull and kill instantly. I have made the blow up photos of these Taiaha's large so that you can use the scroll bar at the bottom of the picture to scroll along the length of the Taiaha. Depending on your operating system you may have to prevent Windows from fitting the whole picture into one window by clicking on the full size "ball" that appears when you hover over the picture. The below Taiaha will only be sent within New Zealand as its length exceeds NZ Posts maximum allowance.

The irony here is that Scared Straight doesn't suck at all. While it may lack some of the live-wire emotion of Destroy, and takes a few sonic steps away from the raw production of the band's early singles, Scared Straight, as Davidson puts it, isn't exactly a "Meatloaf album with tons of strings, or a lushly orchestrated Yes album." Indeed the swagger of "Jukebox Lean" and "Wrest Your Hands" isn't much different from the squalling power-chord wallop of older songs such as "I'm Weak" and "Grounded Ex-Patriot." And Davidson can still turn a phrase better than anyone currently lauded in the pages of Maximumrocknroll.
"It's not that radically different," says Davidson of the new album. "This is the record we wanted to make. We had an engineer who pretty much did what we told him to and we did exactly what we wanted. It's more our record than any of the three."
Certainly the album marks the progress the band has made since their first few singles, recorded just after the Turks were formed about five years ago. Inspired by the primal early punk of such groups as the Saints, the Pagans, and Radio Birdman, Davidson and Weber met fellow Ohio State students Randt and Reber and soon started writing songs within the framework of the quartet's limitations. "When we started, Jim had been playing guitar less than a year, and I had never been in a band," Davidson recalls. "So we just hashed out some three- and four-chord songs just to see what would happen. And at that time Jim and I had been listening to a lot of the Stooges and the Saints, so what we were doing grew out of that."
Early songs such as "Tail Crush" and "Cryin' in the Beer of a Drunk Man" were rooted in both the old-school punk of the mid-Seventies and the crude garage-rock of the Sixties. Where too many late-era punk groups have roots that go no deeper than Black Flag or Minor Threat, the New Bomb Turks showed the extent of their knowledge through heated versions of lost nuggets by obscure groups such as the Nervous Eaters ("Just Head"), the Queers ("This Place Sucks"), and Radio Birdman ("Do the Pop"). Their penchant for peculiar covers has also brought them to sources both likely (the New York Dolls' "Bad Girl") and unlikely (Darlene Love's "Christmas [Baby Please Come Home]" and Hawkwind's "Ejection").
"I think it's important to find the connections between anyone from a Little Richard to a Sonic Youth," Davidson says of the band's eclectic tastes. "You have to find something in all those sorts of music that captures you, and not try to stick it down to decades and genres and trends.
"Kids talk about punk dying -- well, that's what kills off the genre," he continues on another impassioned roll. "When you set up these parameters and this exact definition of the music, that's when people move on to something else, because it gets so boring. When we got together, nobody was dropping names like the Saints or the Angry Samoans that much. And as a band, I don't really know or care about any influence we've had so far. That's not for me to say, and we are kind of a small band. But the most I can hope is that maybe in a small part of the garage-rock, single-buying public, we've maybe had people thinking back about more obscure stuff that has a lot of energy to it."
And that may be the best Davidson can expect, at least in Columbus, where the hometown press roundly ignores the New Bomb Turks and some of the city's other innovative noisemakers. "I'm very happy with our success," says Davidson, who is able to survive solely on the band's income. "To most people in Columbus, though, it's not real music because it's not on MTV all the time and there's no radio single. That's how people think here and it's really sad. They're all watching some Joe Blow bar-band fucks who get a $200,000 advance from a major label and get all this attention and then the album comes out and it doesn't do a thing and they get dropped a year later and everybody's saying, 'Why can't one of our bands get big?' Well, we've toured Europe four times, gone to Japan, we've put four albums out, I'm able to live off this band. Is that big enough for you? For Columbus, I'd say it is."
The New Bomb Turks perform Saturday, March 1, at Cheers, 2490 SW 17th Ave; 857-0041. Showtime is 8:00 p.m. Cover charge is $6.

About Font Embedding. Mozilla moves to H.264. Feature By Daniel Eran Dilger Mozilla's director of research Andreas Gal has proposed enabling mobile H.264 video decoding via hardware or the underlying operating system, signaling the end to the group's war on the Apple-led H.264 video codec.
The move is necessitated by the overall lack of support for Google's WebM video codec, which Mozilla and Google hoped would replace H.264, the technology backed by Apple, Microsoft, Nokia and other commercial vendors. HTML5 Rocks - A resource for open web HTML5 developers. HTML5. CSS3.com: CSS reference guide, and blog. HTML5 in the browser: Canvas, video, audio, and graphics. December 08, 2010 Follow @peterwayner The five characters HTML5 are now an established buzzword, found everywhere on the Web and often given top billing in slides, feature lists, and other places where terms du jour congregate.
HTML5 in the browser: Local data storage. Of all the changes bundled in the HTML5 drafts, few are as radical or subversive as the options for storing data locally.
From the very beginning, the Web browser was intended to be a client in the purest sense of the word. It would display information it downloaded from a distant server, and it would do everything the distant server would tell it to do. HTML5 in the browser: HTML5 data communications. From the beginning, Web users have had mixed feelings about the way their browser communicates.
On one hand, the idea of a tightly controlled sandbox is appealing because it limits the damage a website may do to our personal data and to the Web as a whole. Without these controls, just clicking on a link could unleash viruses, worms, and worse. On the other hand, programmers have always complained about the browser's restrictions, pointing out the ways they limit the services that might be made available. Every AJAX developer can easily identify one way they could make their code that much cooler and more awesome if only the browser would loosen the rules governing the sandbox, but just this once and only for their code. HTML5 in the Web browser: HTML5 forms. March 09, 2011 Follow @peterwayner The changes and enhancements to the form tags are some of the most extensive amendments to the HTML5 standard, offering a wide variety of options that once required add-on libraries and a fair amount of tweaking.
All of the hard work that went into building self-checking widgets and the libraries that ensure the data is of the correct format is now being poured into the browser itself. The libraries won't be necessary -- in theory -- because the work will be done seamlessly by all browsers that follow the standard. In practice, we'll probably continue to use small libraries that smooth over slight inconsistencies.

Finally had the chance to stop by to see the rest of the story. Truly a endearing comic. An understatement really.
Anyway, this reminds me of a silly endings I made with fiends also.
The story was that Frankenstein gets the courage to knock on his future bride's door and give her a rose. He gets the kiss in the end. However, crazy other endings kept popping in my head. one was that the wolf man walks into the door frame with just boxers on. "she's mine dude"
People laughed but they didn't support the idea in the least. haha. They thought being nice to Frankenstein was the new thing.

Someone once said " Live today like you know its your last". Did you?? If you were to know that at midnight tonight, you would no longer be of this world, what would you do?? How would you spend it? Who would you spend it with? Now I ask you....... Why are you waiting till that day comes to do everything you thought about doing??
How do you see yourself?? Do you like what you see? And who? You and only you can make the changes you want in your self. Go out and be the best you can be and while your at it, change the life of another. You will be amazed at the changes you will see happening to you.
Look around you. Look at the home you live in, the job you work at, the friends you have. This all defines WHO you are. Do you love who you see? Maybe you LIKE who you are seeing or just maybe, you are looking at someone you don't even know. If you surround yourself with positive like minded people, you will begin to see yourself mirroring their image. Make your choice wisely because your happiness or lack thereof depends on it.
When I sat down to take a good look at what I wanted to accomplish for the next 12 monthes, I had a ton of ideas come into my head. How was I going to get them all done?? There were so many!! I had to then go back and regroup some and choose the ones that would be the most important and the ones that would make all the others possible.
I am a firm believer in the Law of Attraction. That what you think about, you bring about. When I first started on my new journey, I had lots of doubts in the back of my mind. Lots of fears of the unknowns. But then I asked myself, " How bad to I want change? " When I answered that with tears in my eyes, I know that I can and will , do whatever it takes to see my vision for 2014 come alive.
I believe that you too can make your dreams come true!! You have to believe in yourself and surround yourself with those who will build you up and if you stumble, help you back up. If you Ask and Believe, you WILL Receive!!
So really??? What are you really willing to do to find the true meaning of happiness??? Will you sit around, playing the lottery, hoping one day your numbers are called or are you willing to take that GIant Step and Go All In?
What are your motivators?? Your kids? Your spouse? Yourself??
I will choose to be happy and I am wiling to Go All In. Who's with me on this roller coaster ride?? See ya on the sunny beaches!

To Offset Disaster Relief, Curb the Drug War (VIDEO)
3:06 pm in Uncategorized by Jesse Lava
U.S. Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) says federal aid to his home state after the tornado should be offset by spending cuts elsewhere. We'll see how well the ideological integrity holds up if offsets aren't quickly found, but nevertheless, the question of how to fund disaster relief is increasingly urgent. It arose late last year when Superstorm Sandy ravaged the East Coast. And though we cannot know whether man-made climate change was specifically responsible for either of those acts of nature, we do know federal spending to cope with extreme weather events has been rising. Indeed, from 2011 to 2013, the federal government has spent $136 billion on disaster relief.
One area of spending that Americans from Left to Right are willing to cut is incarceration and the War on Drugs. According to a 2012 poll, 82% of Americans believe the country is losing the drug war, and a plurality say we should be spending less money on it. In another survey, voters overwhelmingly contend we should save money by shifting nonviolent offenders from prison to cheaper alternatives involving rehabilitation. Groups such as Right on Crime and Justice Fellowship demonstrate that many conservatives are now rethinking criminal justice policy. And of course, progressive organizations have long been beating that drum.
There is plenty of federal money to be saved. To start, President Obama's latest budget contains $8.5 billion for prisons and detention. With about half of all federal inmates locked up explicitly for drug offenses (never mind for the collateral consequences of prohibition, including black market violence), that's a hefty chunk of change being spent by the federal government on drug-related incarceration. Obama's proposed budget also allocates $25.6 billion to fighting the drug war through law enforcement, interdiction, international operations, and other means. These are substantial federal investments in an approach to criminal justice that most Americans no longer believe in.
Counting state and local appropriations paints an even bleaker picture of our spending priorities. As of 2007 — the last year for which data is available — the United States spends a massive $228 billion annually on cops, courts, and corrections. Much of that money goes toward arresting, prosecuting, and locking up nonviolent offenders. As a result, our country has become the incarceration capital of the world. With less than 5% of the world's population, we have nearly 25% of the world's prisoners. That gives us the highest rate of incarceration and the highest number of prisoners — besting Russia, China, and all the rest.
Money aside, there is something fundamentally unfair about how our criminal laws are applied. Given that this year is the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech, we would do well to reflect on the vast racial inequalities that have only gotten worse when it comes to the justice system. Consider that blacks, whites, and Latinos use and sell drugs at about the same rate. Yet people of color are far more likely to be arrested for drugs; once arrested, they're more likely to be prosecuted; and once prosecuted, they get longer sentences. In all, two thirds of the people incarcerated for a drug offense are black or Latino even though those two groups make up less than a third of the U.S. population.
This trend of mass incarceration has had sweeping consequences. Millions of formerly incarcerated people have vastly diminished economic prospects. Millions of children have a parent behind bars. And people of color have borne the brunt of the unequal application of our nation's criminal laws.
So as we figure out where to come up with more money for disaster relief, here's one question we face: Would we rather spend billions on rebuilding lives and communities destroyed by natural disasters, or billions on a criminal justice system that is itself destroying lives and communities?
It's not like taking money out of the justice system would be inherently bad for public safety. There are numerous cost-effective alternatives to mass incarceration that would free up money for things like disaster relief. Beyond Bars' new video, produced in partnership with the liberal evangelical group Sojourners, explores those options:
Policymakers hoping to find meaningful offsets to fund disaster aid or any other initiative will have look at three things: 1) Where there's a lot of money, 2) where the spending is unjustifiable, and 3) where the politics and public opinion are conducive to allowing cuts, since there are very few areas in which that's true. Mass incarceration and the drug war meet all three criteria. They just might be the only areas of spending that do.
Sen. Coburn and other politicians who insist on offsets for increases in spending should look anew at America's approach to criminal justice. It's perhaps our best option for making such cuts a reality.

FAU Students Still Fighting GEO Naming Rights Deal Say FAU Trustees Barring Them From Meeting (UPDATED)
One thing the students had in mind was attendance at today's meeting of FAU's board of trustees, the body that cut the $6 million deal with the company. But school officials have, without explanation, barred them from the meeting, according to the students.
See also:
-FAU Students, Faculty and Allies Vow to Keep Fighting
Today's board meeting, however, is at the FAU campus most distant from the stadium, a one-and-a-half-hour drive north in Fort Pierce, at Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute, where the school offers marine-related programs.
A representative of the protesters' Stop Owlcatraz! coalition told New Times ;that several of their members have met with trustees in the board members' offices recently, trying to win them over, and planned to gather at the Fort Pierce campus today when the board is scheduled to meet. When the Harbor Branch campus was contacted, however, the coalition was told (according to the representative) that "there is no way we can meet there tomorrow... It is not an open campus, and no one will get through the gate."
The Harbor Branch campus includes a restricted area along the north shore of its port, but the trustees' meeting is scheduled to be held in the campus' Marine Education Building, outside the restricted area.
The FAU trustees' website states that "The Florida Atlantic University Board of Trustees announces meetings to which all persons are invited." The site also advertises request for public comment, ADA access, and a call-in number for audio: 888-207-9997 Password: FAU Owls.
School officials told New Times it was in January that the trustees selected Harbor Branch as the location for today's meeting. They failed to respond to further requests for information.
The Stop Owlcatraz! coalition still aims to get as close as possible to the trustees' meeting, rallying outside the gates of the Harbor Branch campus at 10 a.m. Later, at 5:30 p.m. on the Boca campus, they're holding a "Board of Students" meeting "to strategize our next big moves and get people engaged who are newer to the movement."
Today went rather well. I went with two other students and we were met by community members affiliated with Move On. We were surprised when we were escorted through the front gate by police! Students were allowed to attend the Board meeting and make comments during the public comment section on the agenda. This included one call-in. Meanwhile, the Move On members protested outside with a large banner and various signs.Many Board members publicly expressed their allegiance with the deal (no surprise). We may have spoken to deaf ears for the most part, but our presence alone was a triumph!

Wiesbaden, 09.05.2012 - The state of Hessen's office for ground management and geo information (HLBG) and Ubisense sign a cooperation for the location based e-Commerce platform INSPIRATION. Since 2006 HLBG and Ubisense cooperatively developed and operated the system that enables HLBG to market their Geospatial data over the Internet. The system, a central component of the Hessian geo data infrastructure, is already extensively used (approx. 250,000 orders per year) and supports almost all processes in an automated manner. "The digital workflow enables the supply and use of geo data and contributes substantially to cost reductions, while maintaining a high level and quality of services" says Uwe Mattler, project manager at HLBG.
The goal of the cooperation is to intensify the collaboration of HLBG and Ubisense and to commonly develop the system further to a modular standard product with the product name INSPIRATION. The system, which smoothly integrates into an existing e-Government infrastructure, can be used in different implementation scenarios (e.g. integrating the sales component with already existing geospatial databases) for the online sales of geospatial data. It complies with the latest national and international standards (INSPIRE). "We are convinced that, by using this solution, other administrations and business companies will also enjoy substantial savings from improved processes, with high and fast availability at the same time. Users can receive specific geo data in almost any desired format at any day and nighttime within the shortest time" says Dr. Hansgerd Terlinden, president of HLBG." The architecture is so flexible that the system can make data available from any number of different sources simply by configuration, e.g. thematic maps, environmental data etc." says Dr. Jörg Poswig, of Ubisense AG.
"This co-operation is a great example of optimizing performance of processes in public administration – particularly when public budgets are more limited – and also for intensified 'networking' between public and private economy", says Dr. Hansgerd Terlinden.
About HLBG
The Hessian administration for ground management and geo information (HVBG) is a modern and future-oriented administration of the country Hessen with about 1,600 persons employed. It is divided into the federal state office for ground management and geo information (HLBG) as central authority and seven offices for ground management (ÄfB) with five branch offices. HVBG governs the real estate property land register and so secures land property and ownership. HVBG promotes the enduring and environmental fair development of rural and urban habitats by re-allocation of rural land and urban real estate regulations. It provides the cadastral land register and basic data from ordnance survey for numerous specialized information systems.
HVBG coordinates the Hessian geo data infrastructure (GDI Hessen), which provides access to distributed geo data. By its offices of surveyor boards for real estate value HVBG creates transparency on the real estate markets by collecting and supplying current market data (real estate valuation).

Self harm rise among young in Wales 'alarming'
A mental health charity says a rise in hospital admissions for young people in Wales who self-harm is alarming.
Paula Lavis of YoungMinds said the true scale of self-harming could be far greater.
The figures were revealed in a study monitoring young people's wellbeing, which also showed smoking and drinking among teenagers is declining steadily.
The assembly government said the research will inform future policy.
The wide-ranging 2011 Children and Young People's Wellbeing Monitor for Wales is an attempt to pull together information on all aspects of children's lives.
Examining existing data on issues such as education, health and tackling poverty, and conducting surveys, it covers the lives of Welsh children from birth until the age of 25.
'Tip of the iceberg'Hospital admissions for self-harm in Wales have increased, particularly among 15-17-year-old girls, from approximately 650 incidents per 100,000 people in 2003-2005 to about 900 per 100,000 in 2006-2008.
Paula Lavis said: "These figures highlight how big an issue self-harming is among some young people.
- Between 1995 and 2008 cases of chlamydia among 15 to 24-year-olds increased from 192 to 758 per 100,000 population
- Hospital admissions for self-harm increased among 15 to 17-year-old girls - from approximately 650 incidents per 100,000 people in 2003-2005 to around 900 per 100,000 in 2006-2008.
- The number of babies born with foetal alcohol syndrome in Wales rose by 10% in 2009
- The number of live births in Wales increased from 32,000 in 2006 to 34,900 in 2009.
- Death rates among 0-19 year olds in Wales continue to fall
- The infant mortality rate continues to fall and in 2009 was 4.8 per 1,000 births.
- In 2010 the proportion of pupils achieving at least level two in the Core Subject Indicator in the National Curriculum was 81.6% - the highest for 10 years.
- The numbers of young people not in education, employment or training (NEET) have remained at the same level for more than a decade
- The suicide rate for 15 to 24-year-olds has declined in recent years, particularly among males
- Fewer than one in three adolescents report eating fruit or vegetables daily, while less than half of older girls report eating breakfast daily
- The percentage of children living in absolute poverty rose to 21% in 2006-07 to 2008-09.
Source: 2011 Children and Young People's Wellbeing Monitor for Wales
"This may only be the tip of the iceberg as they only cover hospital admissions, so do not include the many young people who do not come to the attention of services."
The assembly government published its action plan to reduce suicide and self-harm in 2008 and Ms Lavis called for current data to show it is working.
Between 1995 and 2008, the number of reported cases of chlamydia among 15 to 24-year-olds in Wales also increased from 192 to 758 per 100,000 population.
Dr Jim Richardson, a former children's nurse with a background in adolescent sexual health research, said this was down to increased awareness.
The University of Glamorgan academic said: "The ways of protecting yourself are more varied and in general people are more knowledgeable about the side and after-effects.
"All the other indicators of sexual health are following positive trends and reflect the hard work which has gone on but more definitely needs to be done."
The study also found the number of babies born with foetal alcohol syndrome in Wales rose by 10% in 2009 - causing concern among experts, despite the numbers involved being small.
Between 2006 and 2009 the number of babies with the syndrome had been falling steadily.
Helen Rogers, head of the Royal College of Midwives in Wales, said more must be done to communicate the risks of drinking alcohol during pregnancy.
"Start Quote
End Quote Keith Towler Children's Commissioner for WalesLocal authorities and the new Welsh government post-election must...use this data to develop and review services that will have positive, lasting impact on children and young people's lives"
She said: "This is very worrying and we are always concerned pregnant women who drink aren't taking this as seriously as they should and the real number is under-reported.
"It appears we are not doing enough to communicate the risks - I think this is a symptom of a much wider issue about our attitudes towards alcohol."
Wales already has the highest rates of women who drink and smoke before and during pregnancy in the UK.
But the proportion of 15-year-olds drinking weekly has fallen in recent years, so that in 2009/10 36% of boys and 30% of girls reported drinking this often.
This compares with 58% of boys and 54% of girls in 2001/02.
Smoking among 15-year-olds remains more prevalent among girls but has continued to decline since its peak in the late 1990s among both sexes.
This trend can be seen across the UK and is the same for 13-year-olds.
Children's Commissioner for Wales Keith Towler welcomed the monitor as a "useful benchmark" and applauded the inclusion of surveys with children.
He said: "Local authorities and the new Welsh government post-election must show they have listened, taken their views seriously and use this data to develop and review services that will have positive, lasting impact on children and young people's lives."
Nearly one in three (32%) of children in Wales now live in poverty according to figures which measure relative income after housing costs.
Children living in poverty are those living in households with below 60% of the median income for households of that type.
A consultation on maternity services in Wales ended in April but should see healthy lifestyle options promoted by all health professionals caring for expectant mothers.
In November the assembly government launched a five year plan to reduce teenage pregnancies and STIs.
It also set up a new Integrated Family Support Service to provide specialist support and health advice to families with complex needs, including drug and alcohol abuse.

Sarah Palin not only annoyed leaders of the Utah Republican Party when she didn't have time for them during her book signing stop in Salt Lake City last week. She also took off from her hotel after arranging for a last-minute hair appointment without paying the hairdresser and leaving her to cover her own valet parking.But Rhonda Halliday of Images Hair Studio and Day Spa wants to give Palin the benefit of the doubt. She thinks the lack of payment was unintended, and someone on Palin's staff just dropped the ball.
Halliday was called by a friend at 8 a.m. last Wednesday and was told Palin needed her hair done that morning. Halliday had planned to take her 3-year-old to the dentist for her first filling that morning, but arranged for her husband to get off work for that chore.
She was told to meet the group at the Monaco Hotel in downtown Salt Lake City and to just leave her car with valet parking.
After being ushered to a room on the 15th floor and given some instructions (don't talk to Palin unless she talks first) she did Palin's hair while the former Alaska governor chatted with her family.
Then, the Palin party left to get to the book signing at Costco on time.
That's right. The great white hope of the GOP can be found in a semi-metropolis that's probably not all that close to you, hawking her ghost-written wears next to a five gallon jug of mayo. What's that Hitchens? Feel like talkin'?
Don't be too hard on her. She didn't write that piece and she probably hasn't read it. I doubt she could either read or write it. Everything she does is for effect, and is always deniable. She could switch back in a minute. At the moment she thinks her tea party crowd wants to hear this kind of thing so she'll say that. She's been out to say, 'well, I don't know but I think the President ought to produce his birth certificate. I'm not saying it isn't a good question. Then later, cause she's got to go to the Gridiron dinner in Washington, and learn how to use a knife and fork and be taught by Fred Malek. She takes it back. She's a disgraceful opportunist and a real moral coward.

Authorities said Jeannie Peabody called police to report that a white van pulled up on the lawn in front of her house in Peacham around 7 a.m. Her husband, Mark Peabody, went outside to talk to the occupant, she said.
She heard gunshots and retreated to the basement, heard footsteps upstairs, and then went to a neighbors house to call 911, police said. She didnt see her husband after he left the house, police said.
Police responded with a SWAT team and search helicopter. They said they found Mark Peabody, 50, dead outside his home and John Jackson, 59, of Amherst, N.H., dead inside the residence. Both had been shot.

Staples Center
Attendance: None
Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Kobe Bryant scored 22 points and dished out eight assists, and the Los Angeles Lakers used a big second half run to move a victory away from a return trip to the NBA Finals with a 103-94 triumph over the Denver Nuggets.
Lamar Odom had a spectacular game with 19 points, 14 rebounds and four blocks in a reserve role for the Lakers, who grabbed a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven Western Conference finals. Game 6 will be in Denver on Friday, when the Lakers can punch their ticket to the title series. Last year, they were beaten in six games by the Boston Celtics.
Pau Gasol chipped in 14 points, 10 rebounds and five blocks in the win.
"I think our mindset has to be extremely aggressive and tough," said Gasol. "I think we have to make very few mistakes there. We can't afford any mistakes, because they capitalize them well, very well."
Statistically speaking, the Lakers have the upper hand. When a series is tied at 2-2 in NBA history, the winner of Game 5 has gone on to take the set 83 percent of the time. Additionally, Lakers coach Phil Jackson is 49-1 in playoff series when holding a series lead of any kind. Also, the Lakers have not lost a 2-2 best-of-seven series when winning Game 5 since the 1969 NBA Finals vs. Boston, a string of 13 straight winning sets. Not only that, but the Lakers moved to 20-0 in Game 5s at home when a series is even, 2-2.
Carmelo Anthony poured in 31 points for the Nuggets, who also received 12 points apiece from Kenyon Martin and Chauncey Billups. Denver, though, was hurt by poor second half shooting. The Nuggets shot 29.3 percent (12-of-41) over the final two quarters, compared to 51.7 percent (15-of-29) for the Lakers. Additionally, the Nuggets went 5-of-21 shooting in the last quarter.
"The games that we've lost, they had an advantage on the inside. The games that we've won, we had an advantage," said Anthony. "So it's been going back and forth. I think come Friday we've got to take that advantage back, being a little more physical inside."
Down, 73-66, with just over five minutes left in the third quarter, the Lakers used a 21-3 spurt stretching into the fourth to take control, eventually holding on down the stretch. Shannon Brown started the burst with a slam and finished it by beating the shot clock on a long jumper, giving the hosts an 87-76 cushion with just over eight minutes left.
"We found a special that worked for us that made them double team, rotated the ball," said Jackson. "Kobe was moving the basketball. We found guys open for easier shots tonight and changed the complexity of the game and gave us a bust out."
The last time the Lakers played in Denver, Monday night, they lost, 120-101, as the Nuggets converted 37-of-49 free throws. Jackson was critical of the officiating and drew a $25,000 fine.
The tables turned two nights later, as the Lakers connected on 26-of-35 foul shots in Game 5, while Denver was 23-of-30.
"It means we respond to the challenge," said Bryant. "Denver's a tough team. And the way that they beat us in Game 4, I think there were a lot of people having doubts and we did a good job responding to the challenge."
The contest also marked the fourth time in league playoff history a game was tied after each of the first three quarters, meaning it all came down to the final 12 minutes.
Odom scored eight during the pivotal run, and the Lakers scored the opening 11 points of the final quarter. His slam, which turned into a three-point play, opened an 81-76 lead. Nene was then whistled for a technical foul, and shortly after Odom made a hook shot, Bryant's two free throws and Brown's shot to beat the shot clock provided the big margin.
"It seems like we get a little spark when I play well," said Odom. "And tonight I just came in, I just wanted to give it everything I got, whether the ball went in or not. It just happened to go in."
The Nuggets, who were held without a field goal for nearly a seven-minute stretch, finally broke the streak with a Linas Kleiza three-ball with nearly 7 1/2 minutes left.
Denver trimmed the deficit to four, the last time at 93-89 following a pair of Anthony free throws inside four minutes. Trevor Ariza stemmed the tide with a three-point play, and Odom was instrumental in putting away the Nuggets. He converted a layup off a smooth pass from Bryant and finished off the three- point play for a 99-91 cushion with 1:02 left.
"That was the difference in the game I think," said Martin of the big run in the fourth quarter. "We missed a few easy shots, I know I missed a few right around the rim. They came down and got a couple easy baskets, a couple open jumpers."
Anthony Carter's bucket in the closing seconds of the first quarter tied the game at 25 for the Nuggets. His three-pointer with a minute left in the half moved the Nuggets to a 54-49 lead, but Sasha Vujacic's three-ball in the waning moments evened the game at 56 moving to the half.
