Translate this page Supervisors to Call on State to Increase Funding for Public SafetyMonday, January 13th, 2014 Issue 03, Volume 18.
Riverside County Executive Officer Jay Orr will ask the Board of Supervisors to officially endorse an L.A. County board motion advocating larger allocations from the Assembly Bill 109 program. AB 109, also known as the Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011, was enacted as part of a broader strategy to reduce the state's inmate population in the face of a federal court decree mandating that the number of inmates in California prisons be slashed by 33,000 for health and safety reasons. Under AB 109, so-called "non-serious, non-violent" offenders convicted of felonies that do not stem from a sexual offense are to serve their sentences in local detention facilities. Proponents of realignment suggested that jail sentences would be capped at three years, but that has not held true; one inmate in Riverside County is serving a 12-year sentence, while another in Los Angeles County is serving 43 years at a local detention facility. AB 109 also made counties responsible for prosecuting and incarcerating probation and parole violators whose offenses do not fall into the "serious or violent" category. According to the Riverside County Sheriff's Department, nearly one-fifth of all jail detainees last year were AB 109 cases. A 20-year-old federal court order mandates that the county have a jail bed for every detainee or selectively release inmates to make room for incoming ones. According to the CEO's office, in 2013, the sheriff released 9,286 inmates because of space limitations. That compares to what Sheriff Stan Sniff described as an unprecedented number in 2012 -- 6,990. "Although Riverside County has Advertisement The county currently spends 20 percent of general fund dollars on corrections. That number is projected to more than double in a decade if the county appropriates the revenue required for jail infrastructure. There are five detention facilities in the county able to hold just under 4,000 inmates -- less than in any neighboring county. Orr noted that AB 109 problems are not centered entirely on space shortages. The county's resources are also being drained providing mental health services, substance abuse treatment, temporary housing, clothing, transportation and other assistance to "realigned offenders," according to the Executive Office. The Department of Probation's "realignment caseload" stands at 2,868, according to Orr. "More than half of those probationers are at high-risk for re- offending," he said. Both Orr and L.A. County CEO William Fujioka stressed the need for increased state funding to support rehab programs, family counseling, job training, electronic monitoring in lieu of jail and similar initiatives aimed at keeping people out of detention facilities. In a letter to Orr, Fujioka said that several counties now find themselves targets of the same type of healthcare-related litigation that spurred the state to shift public safety responsibilities to localities. "It is clear that in order to avoid the costly litigation that has plagued the state for many years, counties must address the operational, physical and clinical infrastructure issues presented by AB 109," Fujioka said. He characterized current AB 109 funding levels as "woefully inadequate." According to a California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation report, in the current fiscal year ending June 30, about $1 billion will have to be shared among the state's 58 counties. 0 comments Be the first to share your opinion on this article!

Arizona Wildcats
Ka'Deem Carey named First Team All-Pac-12
University of Arizona running back Ka'Deem Carey is the nation's leading rusher, and now he's also a member of the First Team All-Pac-12.
Carey, who has tallied 1,757 rushing yards on the season, is averaging 6.4 yards per attempt. He's scored 20 touchdowns on the ground along with another one via the air.
Carey is the first Arizona running back since Clarence Farmer in 2001 to be named to the First Team, and he did so in a season where he broke Trung Candidate's single-season school rushing record of 1,602 yards.
He also broke the Pac-12 and UA single-game rushing records with a 366-yard performance against Colorado on November 10.
Carey topped the 100-yard mark in nine of 12 games, and scored at least one rushing touchdown in all but one contest.
While Carey was named to the First Team, Arizona quarterback Matt Scott and receiver Austin Hill each earned second-team honors.
Scott, a senior, passed for 3,238 yards and 24 touchdowns while also rushing for 485 yards and five touchdowns. He ranked second in the Pac-12 in total passing yards, and threw multiple touchdown passes in eight of the 10 games he played in.
Hill, a sophomore, ranks second in the Pac-12 and ninth nationally in total receiving yards with 1,189 on 73 receptions. He caught nine touchdown passes.
Arizona receiver Dan Buckner, linebacker Jake Fischer, center Kyle Quinn and safety Jared Tevis were named Pac-12 Honorable Mention.

Installing child safety seats properly is the only way to ensure they'll work.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently gave its top safety rating to more car seats than ever before.
Unfortunately, the government warns that 73-percent of parents and caregivers install car seats incorrectly, and they only protect your child if they're installed properly.
If you're not sure if your seats are being used properly, find help here:

Greetings all! I was wondering if anyone was having problems installing SnagIt on Windows 7. I installed W7 yesterday, and cannot get it to install. Which is a real pain in the rear end as I use SnagIt all the time. The problem is that it begins installing ok, but then hangs with two or three seconds remaining … and that's as far as it gets. I looked online but couldn't find an answer. Would any of you good folks out there know of a solution?
May 6, 2009
Hi Ashraf! Yep, am on W7 32-bit. I tried installing as administrator – by that you mean clicking on "run as administrator" thing, right? But no luck. All goes well until it says "2 seconds remaining" and then …. nothing. I just cannot seem to get it to install.
September 24, 2009
Are you still using the old version 7. whatever?
If so, you can get 50% off with your free key you got. I know it isn't free but maybe it will help.
I'm still learning snipping tool and afraid to upgrade to windows 7 just for these reasons. Have it here right on my desk.
You can still use fast Stone no? and sniiping tool is it not in windows 7? I'll keep my eyes out for you.
Vidimo Se!

Sorry – I have no idea what is up =(.
@Steelers6 – Window 7 still has Snipping Tool and yes FastStone still works on Windows 7.
May 6, 2009
@ Evan: I still haven't been able to solve the problem with the SnagIt installation. According to the so-called experts I have consulted, it seems to be an incompatibility problem with some program I have installed, although they had no idea which (read that as: we haven't got a clue). Anyway, I was searching for an alternative that would be as good, and more specifically that would allow me to save my screen captures into PDFs (the main reason I loved SnagIt, actually). After trawling the internet, I came across Solid Capture, which does just that. And raymond.cc's website has a working link to a free download (it is normally for purchase). The link is: http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2009/03/30/free-solid-capture-unlock-code-worth-2995-for-everyone/#more-4122
I think this might be what we are both looking for. If we have to give up on SnagIt for the time being, might as well go for something on par with it.
I hope this helps.
October 22, 2008
Ozzie said:Hmmm, just discovered that the window scrolling tool only work with IE (which I am not a fan of). And this looked so promising, too …
Windows scrolling is a peciluar feature. So far the best screenshot tool I have used for capturing scrolling Windows is FastStone Capture; it does it better than even SnagIt. However FastStone Capture is also not perfect, sometimes messing up itself.
May 6, 2009
Ok, I found a work-around for Solid Capture (http://blog.soliddocuments.com/2008/03/scrolling-window-capture-in-firefox.html). Thanks to the very useful Firefox "IE Tab" extension, web pages in FF can be opened in IE and scrolled that way.
The reason I like having a built-in editor and PDF conversion tool in SnagIt and Solid Capture, as opposed to just a scroll-down web page snapshot tool alone, is that I gather research info from such places as Googlebooks. I can them compile all those page captures into PDFs with a couple of clicks of the mouse. Frees up a lot of time and makes research that bit easier.
So Evan, if you are still out there, you might want to give this a try.
Hey Ozzie, I'm still around and I've been reading each of these posts. You've done a great job of keeping up on this. I haven't because of I haven't had the chance to try messing with SnagIt again. My full time job, my family, my forum, and my best friend getting married has kept me a little busy, lol.
I want to track down what might be keeping the SnagIt from working (namely what program, if any, is causing the conflict) but that is going to take some Sysinternals level digging.
I was wondering how many posts it takes to get off the "I'm new around here" status… I know I can change it on my forum (I think I added something like "Spaz Ninja" for the 10,000 mark) but that's something that Ashraf will have to deal with if he wants.
Speaking of digging into the internals of all this, Ashraf, I still need to look into the whole Anvir, Process Explorer, Task Manager memory usage issue I mentioned to you a few weeks back. I haven't forgot…I'm just way too busy.
May 6, 2009
Hi Evan. I hope you have better luck than I in tracking down what is causing the install conflict. I don't understand the system internals, so I am loathe to mess in territory that may cause me unnecessary grief. But please post if you ever find an answer to the problem! In the meantime, check out Solid Capture as an alternative. It is at least a contender.

Skysports.com understands Bristol City are lining up a loan move for Wolves striker Andy Keogh.
Keogh is currently on a season-long loan at Cardiff, but the Republic of Ireland international has struggled to establish himself at the Bluebirds.
The 24-year-old has only made 12 appearances for Cardiff this season and Wolves are thought to be keen on the versatile forward getting more regular action under his belt so could loan him out again to a different club.
The news has alerted Bristol City, who have held a long-term interest in Keogh and tried to sign him before he made the move to Cardiff in the summer.
Robins boss Keith Millen is now trying to thrash out a loan deal for Keogh before the transfer window slams shut at 11pm.

Car Seat That Latches to Grocery Carts?
Can anyone recommend a good infant car seat that will securely latch on to a grocery shopping cart? My current one does NOT and it makes shopping a pain.
Featured Answers
J.K. answers from St. Louis on June 14, 2008
My car seat also did not latch to a grocery cart which did make shopping a pain! Having said that, I read many reviews that said it was not safe for any seats to be hooked onto carts as they have tipped over or come off completely. So... I guess it's up to you if it's worth it or not. I did envy those that had the extra room but felt better knowing my child was safe.
E.L. answers from Kansas City on June 14, 2008
I have one from baby trends. it attatches to every cart!! there are slits that hold the seat secerly to cart, it also has a stroller where the tray folds down to holes for the car seat to fit in. I am using this with baby number 3 and love it!!

Can't help you with the car seat, but I can recommend a sling. I love mine, I tried our car seat my first time out alone with our 10 week old. Before I left the store I had him out of the car seat and in the sling. I love it! I use it all the time even at home. The brand I have is jelly bean. I bought it at Burlington Coat Factory (on line). It can hold up to 35 lbs, and I can carry him 5 different ways as he gets older. I wish I had, had one of these when my oldest was a baby. Plus my son loves being carried in it.

I had 2 carseats that were great but however i'am on the short side so I couldn't see over them to well that was a pain,I did buy a baby sling from a breast feeding store and enjoyed it so did babies but it hurts my back.Now that they are older and were able to sit up I just used the seat and did my shopping I know that others think it is gross and germ infested and that is true know arguments ther but since i'm a sahm and do all the shopping I had no choice and stollers you can get only so much into them.Good Luck in finding one that you like
R.D. answers from Wichita on June 14, 2008
We have Baby Trend infant seats for our twins, and I haven't had any trouble latching them to normal sized shopping carts. I don't like how they latch to the small shopping carts (like the kind they have at Michael's), but at least for places you do your everyday shopping they work just fine. I also love the triangular shaped handles...makes carrying much easier.
T.Z. answers from Topeka on June 14, 2008
I have to recommend a sling or other soft carrier as well. It's much lighter and in my experience keeps your little one much happier during the shopping. I personally use a ring sling or a mei tai for shopping, but I have some friends that use wraps or the soft structured carries like the baby bjorn. It comes down to personal preference. I lugged the car seat around for a few months, but when I discovered the ring sling I was happy to leave the car seat in the car.

The Graco Snugride latches on pretty well. There is a catch toward the back part of the seat, but when you latch it into the cart, it reclines pretty far. Worked out fine for us until our son got older and wanted to sit upright more so he could see.
J.B. answers from Kansas City on June 16, 2008
I agree with those who say it's the carts, not the infant carrier. Depending on where I was shopping, the carrier fit sometimes and didn't others. I also agree with those who say it's not as safe to have it on there anyway; when the carrier didn't fit on the front seat of the cart, I put the carrier in the basket and just put groceries around it. Obviously, you can't get a ton of stuff that way, though. Good luck!

Recently the Cooling fan on my ford focus TDCI has been coming on even though the Temp gauge on the dash is showing what I'm led to believe is the perfect temp for the car( Just below half way)... The fan stays on after the engine has been turned off for about a minute... This occurs if I drive for 20 miles or even just 2-3 miles...
Also the average MPG is now only 31.8 MPG round town this seems a little low for a 06 Diesel engine... does the fan running all the time cause the alternator to work harder therefore cause for higher fuel consumption?
Could the problem be the thermostat or Temp Sensor?? Some also mentioned could be the EGR valve?
Any advice would be appreciated..
Thank you

How to eat your way through Sheung Wan
Before I even landed in Hong Kong, I knew that Wan Chai was going to be the sort of place I'd dream about for years to come – with its pedigree of establishments (Monocle, Phillip Lim 3.1, a store dedicated entirely to vintage polaroid cameras), how could it not be? Loving Wan Chai didn't surprise me in the slightest, but Sheung Wan caught me off guard. Totally and completely off guard. Though maybe things are better when you don't see them coming? When finding a place yourself makes it seem all the more of a treasure. A happy mess of run-down alleys (what is it about all these hip little nooks having alleyways?), creaky old noodle joints, art galleries, that seemingly deliberate grittiness, the Aesop office peeping out reassuringly from a seemingly forgotten little pathway. Sheung Wan was the kind of place I'd happily waste a year or two. I'd live above on of those interior design firms and
True to the notion of where there's hipsters, there's good food to be eaten, there's a smorgasbord of good places to grab a bite. Though if I had to narrow it down to a few key contenders, these would be it. Here is my perfect day of eating Sheung Wan.
Breakfast at Po's / Cafe Deadend
Please go here! If you go anywhere on this whole list, please let it be here. You'll see it from afar – all white walls and warm light and that unmistakable scent of cinnamon dusted carbohydrates. I've said it before, and I'll say it again – this place is flawless. Order a bostock, if they have them – a heavenly concoction of brioche, hazelnut cream, frangipane and a thick dusting of whole roasted hazelnuts. They are warm and molten and buttery and will glide down your throat like you never imagined.
Morning tea at Tea-kha
(Photo from here)
Oh but please go here too. Especially if you, like myself, haven't quite graduated onto the caffeinated side of life just yet. To a tea drinker in a coffee-lovers world, this place breathes reassurance. Like Po's, Tea-kha is unapologetically brazen on their butter-sugar-flour front. Get there early, around eleven in the morning, when it opens, as this teeny little kitchen is bubbling with every man and their tea-drinking dog by twelve. It's really no wonder, everything about Tea-kha is spectacular – buttery ginger scones studded with chewy bits of candied ginger, a silken green tea cheesecake, pots of jasmine blossom tea. Morning tea here is one beautiful, lingering marathon of floral notes and buttered things.
18 Tai Ping Shan Street
Afternoon snacks at Heirloom
At this point in time, with a stomach full of bread and hazelnut creme and cheesecake, the idea of a full blown lunch will probably seem intimidating, if not slightly nauseating. Behold Heirloom. The menu here is a little bit spectacular. Who'd have known that tacos and Balinese cuisine make such passionate bedfellows? Well, they do. Ride with it. Here is where this post takes a slight lean towards those 'choose-your-own-adventure' novels of the 1980s. Do you feel like something:
A big plate of warm chocolate chip cookies (baked to order) and a glass bottle of cold milk.
Tacos. The Balinese one in particular – seared barramundi with coriander and kaffir lime dressing. Wash down with an iced hibiscus water. Repeat.
226 Hollywood Road
Dinner at La Cantoche
Effortlessly cool and tucked away on a seemingly unpromising laneway, this French-Vietnamese-Chinese-Everymese eatery is all your childhood fantasies come true. Cereal for dinner? Yes. M&M's to follow? Sold. Can we listen to some bangin' music and watch old clips of MJ grooving? Obviously. Start with the rice bubbles, pork mince and Vietnamese herbs wrapped in lettuce leaves. And a pot of the duck rillet with warm crispy chunks of house baked baguette (it's really, really good). As for mains, the chicken cordon bleu with buttered macaroni and mashed potato is more than slightly mind-blowing, and what it lacks in originality it makes up for in butter and free flowing melted cheese. If you are feeling alarmingly full at this point, don't stop. Persevere. To finish this day of the dessert of choice is unquestionably the homemade nougat and m&m ice-cream, in all its silky, creamy bleeding artificial colour glory.
5 Wa Lane / 277 Hollywood Road

Here's a tip. If you ever start a watch company, give all of your watches a name. Those models that have names, whether it be Submariner, Speedmaster, Polaris, Navitimer, or anything else, stand out amidst the dozens of nameless models that we find each and every day. If a watch doesn't have a model name, it's pretty hard to identify, and equally hard to discuss with your friends, and thus rarely become classics, cult or other.
Take this LeCoultre chronograph you see to the right. This thing is AWESOME. Check out the blue sunburst dial, unique round multi-colored hour markers, and red-tipped second hand. You can't see it from this picture, but this watch also features a small but thick case that we don't see too often in LeCoultre chronographs.
Take these great attributes, add in a Valjoux 72 movement and the LeCoultre name, and you have a watch people WANT. Actually, Jeff (who graces this fare site from time to time) is currently obsessed with this particular timepiece, and even considered selling his vintage Rolex Datejust to help pay for it. Tempted to bid on this lot in tomorrow's Antiquorum sale, Jeff began to research this model (reference E 2644), thinking perhaps he could find the same watch from a dealer, on eBay, or a forum. But you know what? Because this watch doesn't have a name, and few outside of the auction world would take enough time to catalog the reference number, there isn't a single other LeCoultre reference E 2644 available in the world at this time.
This could be Jeff's only chance at purchasing this watch that he's spent hours staring at, all because LeCoultre didn't give it a name. It will be up on the block tomorrow tomorrow with a pre-sale estimate of $2200-$2800. Click here for details.

You can suck his dick for some Trukfit but if you want a new pair of Lil Wayne's sneaker collaboration with Supra you're going to have to juggle his balls for good measure. So, enjoy that.
In news related to the martian, he was dropped from an endorsement deal with Mountain Dew last week over his controversial reference to Emmett Till on a remix of Future's "Karate Chop," which leaked online earlier this year. His publicist, Sarah Cunningham, said that the split was due to "creative differences" and that it was an amicable parting. Girl, good day.
PepsiCo said in a statement that Weezy's "offensive reference to a revered civil rights icon does not reflect the values of our brand."
The New Orleans rapper (who now talks like Valley Girl from a wealthy family when he is down at the skatepark, I can't wait until I'm that rich) had sent the Till family a letter offering empathy and saying that he would not reference Till or the family in his music, particularly in an inappropriate manner. But the Till family said the letter fell short of an apology.
"It's mindboggling to me that they partnered with him in the first place," said the Rev. Wheeler Parker Jr., a Till cousin and witness to his abduction. "Major corporations should scrutinize who they endorse, don't let greed or money determine who you sponsor."

Yeah Yeah Yeahs: "New Album Very Different"
Listen up, Yeah Yeah Yeahs fans: Expect the unexpected! The New York rockers are in the studio working on their third effort -- and according to the band themselves, it sounds like nothing they've ever done before.
In a recent post on their MySpace blog, the YYYs said they are close to finishing work on the currently untitled record and emphasized its new direction: "Will it sound kind of like Show Your Bones?No, been there done that.What about Is Is? Is that more of the direction it's going in? Absolutely not, it sounds VERY different...What does it sound like? Not much like anything you've heard from us before. Does it sound like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs? You bet your sweet ass it does."
Karen O and company are currently eyeing a 2009 release date and urge everyone to "GET PSYYYYYYYYYYYYCHED." Will do, guys -- after all, you did include enough 'Y's to abbreviate your band name four times over.

'Vampire Diaries' Stars Heat Up The Cover Of Entertainment Weekly [GALLERY]
The stars of "The Vampire Diaries" already have a huge fanbase, and it's only bound to grow once their sexy new Entertainment Weekly covers hit stands on February 10th! Nina Dobrev, Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley get up close and personal with each other on all three collectable covers.
'Pretty Little Liars" Tyler Blackburn Admits He Wants To Be On 'The Vampire Diaries' [AUDIO]
Nina looks absolutely stunning as her co-stars take turns vying for her attentions. There's more than a little skin showing, but the chemistry is definitely real. Rumors have been swirling for years on whether Nina is dating Ian or Paul– rumors that are made more complicated by the fact that her character on TVD has locked lips with both vamps!
'The Vampire Diaries' Star Joseph Morgan Says Casper Zafer 'Is A Hell Of A Guy' [AUDIO]
The article addresses how the show deals with the outspoken "shippers": people who are passionate fans of a specific fictional relationship. TVD's cult following is full of them! The executive producers of the CW's hit show discuss how they decide whether or not to make shippers happy, especially when there are conflicting couples.
There's bound to be a lot more shippers after these covers hit stands on Friday! Check them out below. Will you buy all three?

Hi all, I need to ask a question about some recent events taking place in a seaside town called Victor Harbor in South Australia. There is a group of street preachers who have come to our town to preach the word (which God says to do but..), their preaching is highly offensive, loud, vulgor, they have used the word "slut" in their preaching. They JUDGED catholics and said quote "You will be in Hell with child molesting catholic preists, you will be in Hell with the Pope" They went to the local tattoo parlour and called a girl a "slut" for having a tattoo. They have said "They wish to see the tattoo shop be closed down". They target a local pub yelling at people who are outside this pub during the day, some people are here having lunch and are not alcoholics yet they are judging them and claiming these people are alcoholics. They have come on more than one occasion. They have disturbed our local markets. Poor farmers who rely on these markets to make a living, these farmers are not doing anything wrong by selling their produce at these markets yet this group known as the Adelaide Street Preachers have harassed customers of the markets so much the markets were forced to close that day.
One man who is being accussed by these preachers as being a sinner because he is at the pub drinking is at this pub because his child is dead. He and his wife sit in their child's car every night in the driveway, for hours. Just sitting there missing their child. This may or may not be the reason this man drinks, but never-the-less.. this is his business and no one elses to judge but God's.
God has said to preach the GOOD NEWS.. These preachers preach nothing but "Love God or Go To HELL".. This is not love. This is not GOOD News.
There has to be a way to make these people understand they're doing the right thing.. in a wrong way. They're judging. I've tried saying to them "First remove the plank from your own eye before removing the splinter from someone elses" they have ignored this, this is scripture yet they have ignored it. Ignored me. What can we do because I'm tired of seeing the people of my town being harassed.

…"I quit"

January 24th, 2010 10:55 pm
Sounds like a decent gesture, afterall reading to schoolchildren is a traditional Presidential photo op pasttime… Except, in this instance the President was reading because he's apparently too stupid to give a speech to middleschoolers without the aid of teleprompters.
It's always nice to know that the guy representing our country to world powers can't even speak to a room full of school children without a prepared script scrolling on a pair of teleprompters.

Given the embarrassing results of his stumping for Democrat candidates in Virginia, New Jersey and Massachussetts and his miserable failure in campaigning for the Olympics in Copenhagen, I've figured out a winning strategy for us to defeat the terrorists….
Send Barack Obama to the middle east to campaign for al-Qaida.
January 20th, 2010 8:08 am
Dear Democrats,
We warned you. We told you that if you tried to ram that socialist agenda down our throats, we'd shove revolt back up your asses. You didn't learn when voters sent you packing in Virginia and New Jersey. Despite the community organizer in chief swooping into those states to gladhand the koolaid drinking sheep. We told you that America is built on the foundation that all men are created equal, endowed by our Creator, with life, liberty and justice for all. These weren't suggestions of how people should be treated, these are core principles upon which our country was founded and by God, we will never let them disappear without a fight.
You've overstepped your bounds. You've tried to thrust upon us a government that, under the guise of dispensing justice, favors kickbacks to supporters at the expense of the opposition and prefers handouts to the greedy at the expense of the hardworking men and women that keep this country moving everyday. You've continued to spend more than you should, or our money, never worrying whether the expense was sound, reasonable or financially viable. You've killed job growth, rewarded failure and cast a dark cloud over this country. You've waived the banner of cradle-to-grave government and the citizens of America have resoundingly objected it.
The message could not be more clear. We want a government that fears the people, not the other way around. We hope you've gotten the message this time. We're mad as hell and we won't stand by while you dismantle all the things that make this country great.
And let not your heart be troubled… we will be back. We do not view last night's repudiation of your socialist agenda as an end, but a beginning. You've awakened the sleeping giant and he's pretty pissed off.
See you in November.

Our pastor, Dr. Ed Young, takes on corruption in Washington with a biblical perspective. A truly must-hear sermon.
January 18th, 2010 5:44 pm
Democrats have been hyperventilating with glee over being able to use an innuendo-laden term like "teabaggers" to refer to American citizens with legitimate grievances against an over-bearing, pork-infested, rights-limiting, ever-encroaching federal government. It was sad enough when being used by unemployed hippies showing up to their daily liberal protests, and became downright ridiculous when anchors on networks like MSNBC and CNN started tossing the term around, seemingly impressed with themselves that they could be so crafty as to use a putdown that would rank high in an elementary school playground fight… but now we have United States Senators and one-time, has-been, uppity, elitist Presidential candidates doing it?
I think it's only appropriate, then, to start referring to Democrats as D-baggers.

What happens when Democrats find themselves behind in elections?
They cheat, of course. (audio)
SCHULTZ (23:02): I tell you what, if I lived in Massachusetts I'd try to vote 10 times. I don't know if they'd let me or not, but I'd try to. Yeah, that's right. I'd cheat to keep these bastards out. I would. 'Cause that's exactly what they are.
The more we hope, the less they change.

One man potentially stands as the last line of defense against a disastrous monstrosity of legislation that threatens the United States. That man is Scott Brown. On January 19th, voters in Massachusetts will go to the polls in a special election to fill the Massachusetts Class I Senate seat (formerly held by Ted Kennedy), for the remainder of the term ending January 3, 2013. The election has become a referendum of sorts on the healthcare fiasco currently being crafted through backroom deals and shady bribery among the Democrat-controlled Congress. If Republican Scott Brown can pull off an upset in the blue state, he would become the 41st Republican in the Senate, ending the Democrat super majority.
Brown's campaign had a goal of raising $500,000 today. So far, he's raised $1.3 million and counting. Click here to raise that total.
By the way, here's Brown during a recent debate reminding people just whose seat is up for grabs in this election.

Mortal Instruments: City of Bones is another YA adaptation that is no doubt trying to replicate Twilight's success and perhaps get an adaptation for each of the sequel.
According to IMDB, the story revolves around Clary Fray. When her mom is attacked and taken from their home in New York City by a demon, Clary Fray, finds out truths about her past and bloodline on her quest to get her back, that changes her entire life.
The movie stars Jamie Campbell Bower, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Lena Headey, Kevin Durand, CCH Punder, Kevin Zegers, Jared Harris and Lily Collins as Clary.
EW has just released, I think, the first picture from the movie. Click here to see the bigger picture. Doesn't give us much of the movie. But this I suppose is to create some anticipation for the trailer which, is from what I've read, would be released later this week.
I know its too early to really tell...but I have a feeling, that this movie won't really take off...not in a way that Twilight and the Hunger Games did...so we probably won't get sequels. But the trailer could change my mind on that.

Bernanke Backing Low Rates, Stimulus Possible
Posted By RVBusiness On February 29, 2012 @ 1:01 pm In Breaking News | No Comments
The uneven U.S. economic recovery will have to pick up in order to quickly bring down an unacceptably high jobless rate, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said on Wednesday (Feb. 29).
"The job market is far from normal," he said in comments prepared for delivery to the House of Representatives Financial Services committee.
MSNBC reported that Bernanke's remarks suggested another round of Fed bond buying to stimulate growth is not off the table as policymakers assess whether job market gains will persist.
The drop in the unemployment rate, which fell to 8.3% in January, is more rapid than would be expected given the economy's sluggish rate of growth, Bernanke said.
"Continued improvement in the job market is likely to require stronger growth in final demand and production," he said.
Sustaining a highly accommodative monetary policy stance is consistent with the Fed's goals of achieving full employment with low and steady inflation, he said. The Fed believes rates near zero will be appropriate through at least late 2014, he added.
A recent rise in oil prices due to geopolitical tensions may raise inflation for a time and curb consumption, Bernanke said.
"Gasoline prices have moved up … a development that is likely to push up inflation temporarily while reducing consumers' purchasing power," he said.
At its last policy-setting meeting in late January, the Fed said it isn't likely to raise benchmark interest rates – which have hovered near zero since December 2008 – until at least late 2014.
Bernanke, in a press conference following the meeting, left open the possibility the central bank could launch another round of bond buying if the weak recovery falters or if inflation begins to fall below the Fed's 2% target.

Durant Cricket launch video guides
Durant Cricket has made it much easier for NatWest CricketForce members to install their cricket ground equipment by creating a series of easy-to-follow step-by-step video guides on You Tube, showing the installation process.
Durant Cricket managing director Cristian Durant said: "We wanted to make things as simple as possible for the end user. All of our ground equipment comes with detailed instructions on how to install, however the videos provide that extra visual and practical aid.
"Thanks to technology people don't even have to be sat a computer to view the videos; instead they can view them on mobile phone devices like iPhones, while they are out there on the cricket pitch putting up the sight screens or cages."
So far Durant Cricket has created You Tube installation videos for three sight screen models and two mobile cricket cages, with more videos on the way.
He added: "At Durant Cricket we try and ensure every cricket club's purchasing experience is as straightforward as possible; this means everything from the quality of products, price competitiveness, and the pre-sales and after sales service.
"The videos help support our after sales service and enhance the overall purchasing experience."
Meanwhile, Durant Cricket is still offering a full installation service for NatWest CricketForce clubs who do not want to install the ground equipment products themselves, as well as considerable discounts on a number of products specifically for CricketForce registered clubs.

The history...
In 1867, the city prohibited the use of Bradford Beck water in the canal, which soon ran dry. The Becks only real utility to the town was now as a main sewer, and in that capacity the stream served as the depository for all of the towns waste. Even when sewer pipes had first been installed in Bradford, in the mid-19th century, they merely dumped the (untreated) sewage directly into the Beck, to the deep unhappiness of downstream landowners on both the Beck and the Aire. In 1869 one of these landowners, a William Stansfield of Esholt Hall, obtained an injunction mandating that Bradford treat its sewage before releasing it into the river. The first treatment plant proved to be a failure as the grease from the wool mills made the sewage exceptionally difficult to treat, but continued injunctions forced the city to continue investing in treatment facilities. Ironically, in 1899, the city took over William Stansfields Esholt estate on the Aire for a new treatment plant, and the Esholt Sewage Works continues to be Bradfords main treatment plant today. In the 1920s, the three-mile Esholt Sewage Disposal tunnel was dug to directly connect the citys sewer system to the Esholt works, and the Bradford Beck was finally freed of its sewerage burden. By this time, however, the river had already been completely culverted through the center of town, and so few fully appreciated the change that had taken place
The mission...
This site is MASSIVE, and we still didn't cover it all!! We started at the north of the site from the old primary settlement tanks which are no longer in use. We travelled along the top of the shit pipes, across the River Aire to the main site. The building in the distance is the incineration plant.
Behind the incineration plant is some kind of poo silo
Then we moved onto the best bit of the site, part of Yorkshire Water's £39m upgrade of the works. The upgrade has seen the 100-year-old secondary treatment plant replaced by new 'activated sludge' process tanks. Basically, HUGE vats of constantly whirling gurgling poo being biologically broken down!!
HUGE tanks of steamy poo's being churned and broken down. Aromatic?... Quite
Yours truly

How to Overcome a Fear of Escalators
If you are afraid of escalators, here is how to overcome that fear.
1Observe how other people are using the escalator.Ad
2Approach it deliberately, slowly. Step out of the way to back off and wait a while--if you wish to work up to it a little.
3Notice that most people seem to love and enjoy escalators, and approach them happily even with joy.
4Think about why other users do not seem to be afraid.
- Why are you afraid? Do you just need to go for it, a few times?
5Take your time getting on and off the escalator to be safe, and not to fall. Don't rush: keep control of your emotions, and follow steps below.
6Grasp the moving handrail and step on. Be still. Hold onto the handrails.
7Use the escalator carefully. If you have average eyesight, coordination, balance and agility it is considered safe to use an escalator.
- Is their danger--well, probably no more than falling on ordinary steps or stairs. That one should not slip and lose balance depends on your equilibrium.
8Remember that Escalators have safety features like emergency stop buttons.Ad
We could really use your help!
computer hardware?
case studies?
- Escalators are maintained regularly, accidents are rare.
- Just remember they are safe.
- Caution: Young children--as well as very slow-moving, wobbly, or very elderly people--may not have the eyesight, coordination, balance and agility to use an escalator.

If you remember, I wasn't a big fan of Mint.com in the first place because there was trouble getting all my accounts to show up on the website. A few weeks after that post, everything was sorted out and the website started working the way it was supposed to. I LOVED the app on my iPhone and the summaries of my spending emailed to me or appearing as alerts in the app were super useful since I haven't been tracking it lately (sorry guys, April is definitely another month lost in the abyss. I have only a vague recollection of where my money is going).
However, this week I read this article in MoneySense and realized absent accounts might not be the biggest concern when using Mint.com. I didn't need much convincing, and deleted my accounts from the website right away. Since I'm spending May in France, the last thing I need is my credit card being stolen abroad and then being responsible for the bill. I'm particularly wary because credit card fraud is exactly what happened on my vacation last year.
I went to Montreal last May, and about two months after I got home, $300 was withdrawn from my chequing account. I received a call immediately from my bank notifying me of potentially suspicious behavior on my account — the money was withdrawn from a Montreal ATM machine only 2hrs after I bought Starbucks in Edmonton with the same card, so yeah, that was definitely weird! TD handled things perfectly, and I had my $300 back within a few days. I really appreciated how painless they made a scary experience!
That said, having had money stolen from my bank account in the past means I have no naivetee to spare thinking it won't be stolen in the future (though a lot of hope that it doesn't!). The MoneySense article says that the way Mint.com accesses your bank accounts breeches the contract you've made with your bank and thus voids your protection against fraud. This makes sense, because if you're not keeping your passwords confidential then no surprise the bank doesn't want to back you up if your money gets stolen.
So now I am Mint-free, but that's ok. Now that I'm using ING's Thrive chequing account, they're filling in for alerts when I have low account balances or new deposits. My own money tracking (when I intend to get back to it, that is) will provide me with graphs & charts in simple office software.

Varicose veins aren't merely a cosmetic problem. They can cause pain and discomfort on a daily basis, with some of the more persistent symptoms including swelling, throbbing and cramping of the legs. Serious complications can develop over time, such as phlebitis (vein inflammation), blood clots, dermatitis and painful vein ulcers that in extreme cases can lead to amputation. While many treatments exist, the one currently attracting most attention is endovenous laser therapy – a less invasive alternative to surgery with good success rates reported in the hands of experienced and skilled practitioners. Its popularity is likely to increase if a proposed Medicare rebate for the treatment is approved. CHOICE discovers what varicose veins are and who gets them, what treatment options are available, and management strategies to help reduce discomfort.
Please note: this information was current as of May 2009 but is still a useful guide today.
There are two venous systems in our legs, deep veins and superficial veins, which are joined by perforator veins. Most varicosities are due to problems with the main superficial, or saphenous, veins, that collect blood from other surface veins. One-way valves in veins direct the flow of blood back to the heart. In the legs – the most common location of varicose veins – these valves are particularly important because the blood is flowing against gravity. When one or more valves fail, blood can pool in the section, causing the bulgy, tortuous appearance of varicose veins. Weak vein walls exacerbate the problem. When the blood flows backwards because of weak valves, it is known as reflux. Deeper veins, which lie within and between muscles, are not affected in the same way, because muscular contraction (when walking and so on) compresses the veins, creating a pumping action that returns blood to the heart and provides support. The veins near the surface, however, have little support. Not all varicosities are caused by valve problems in the saphenous or perforating veins; any superficial leg vein can become varicose, although these veins are usually quite small and cause few symptoms. However, the severity of the symptoms isn't always related to the appearance of the veins, and even large, obvious ones may cause little or no discomfort. Varicose veins serve no useful purpose: alternative pathways have already been formed to bypass the abnormal varicose veins and return blood to the heart. Compressing, closing off or eliminating varicose veins improves circulation and relieves many of the symptoms.
In Western nations it's estimated about 40% of people suffer from varicose veins, and it appears to be hereditary. Susceptibility varies among cultures, although it's not clear if this is genetic or lifestyle-related (poor diet and lack of physical activity may be partly responsible). Women seem to get varicose veins more than men, most likely due to the hormone oestrogen. Taking oestrogen-based contraceptive pills or hormone replacement therapy also appears to increase risk. Women who have had children are more likely to get varicose veins in the future, as hormones in pregnancy relax vein walls, and the weight of the uterus puts more pressure on leg veins. Varicose veins that occur during pregnancy often go away within a few months of giving birth. Poor diet, obesity, smoking and a sedentary lifestyle increase risk, as does standing still for long periods of time.

Crybaby Liberals, Part 2
The previous blog post was seen as a might bit unfair by a couple of folks on twitter. Particularly in my thought that Ms. Murray and Coyne were so off base that their position was quite farcical. Let me explain in more depth the problems with their position.
Firstly, they've warped the idea of the open primary. Yes, the goal was supposed to make the party more open to regular Canadians to get a feel for it and to commit themselves as people sympathetic to Liberal principles. But to pull it to an extreme and say that was the only way that supporters were meant to be misses the point entirely.
It was also to open a channel for liberals across Canada to look at the party and see the leaders describe their sense of a greater Liberalism. And then pick that leader to believe in, volunteer for, and contribute to. To have their personal choice counter-acted seems foolhardy and destructive.
The system was also set forth to provide an avenue for engagement, which had been advertised for months and received almost 55,000 supporters from across the country to weigh in on the party and be engaged with.
This forgets about the fundamental organizing requirements for the party. When it was implemented in Alberta on the provincial scene with the provincial Liberals the updated lists were sent out each month and not automatically as soon as a person signed up. Implementing that system, and the arguments put in the party, made it clear that there would be a process where data would be collected, checked, and then released. It was not to be a free for all from the get go, which is important to avoid list-dropping (where thousands of supporters and memberships would be dropped on unsuspecting data-entry volunteers) or abuses of the system.
If they expected immediate and unfettered access to all of the supporters then they were wrong and weren't listening. There needs to be a functional process in handling the immense amount of data that the party is now handling from the Canadian electorate.
Following this is their quaint expectation that there'd be an instant database of Liberal supporters that they could latch onto to start firing off their messaging to. Well, no. It's not that easy. You need to make it past the second installment of $25,000 (showing your commitment) and then show that you can attract people to the party. Are these other candidates attracting members to the party? I don't know. We will know by March 3rd, though.
And then we'll see how well these candidates, with their marshalled supporters, will do in the leadership race, with the almost two months they'll have with the fully unrestrained database of supporters at their and every other party's disposal.
My guess is quite badly if this is how their campaigns operate.
Secondly, we are seeing the hallmarks of the Liberal-loser mentality displayed in broad daylight — where if a person can't win under a certain set of rules they complain about those rules, and then off and go to the media with those complaints. It's a joke this time around. Almost. Except the joke isn't just on the candidates themselves but everyone around them and the party at large.
Coyne and Murray going to the press, labeling the party as anti-democractic and fundamentally at odds with the membership, help nobody and squanders every effort the people in the party spend day in and day out earning the trust of Canadians. It is farcical and down right mind numbing the stunt these two leadership candidates are pulling right now.
Not only is it upsetting to see it done against Liberals it is also deeply disturbing to see this trend in the party attack Canadian democracy at large. Whenever an article like this is released it discourages the voting public from engaging because, guess what, it just confirms their suspicions that they can't engage because there's no point. Opinions confirmed and biases matched, and the Liberals and the general status of Canadian democracy is knocked flat onto their back.
What this ultimately does is pushes people away, undermines the process, and keeps the Liberals from building towards the 2015 federal election.
Thirdly, it is patently obvious that when you sign up on a website owned by another candidate that you are signing up to be their supporter. To make the argument that this isn't the case is beyond laughable and makes me wonder what those two campaigns are thinking.
So I don't know where they're coming from this on. It seems down right disingenuous from their camp and thoroughly undermining the process at large. Sadly this'll hurt the party more than their individual campaigns.

Del Valle football has grown into a new powerhouse in the city of El Paso. The conquistadors have taken District 2-4A by storm, going 18-1 in the District the past three years. Last season, Del Valle was 9-2, but lost in the Bi-District round of the playoffs for the first time in five years. The previous four years, Del Valle were Bi-District champs.
This season, Del Valle returns 15 starters, and with 28 seniors, Head Coach Jesse Perales is not worried about breaking in 6-5 Sophomore quarterback Steven Montez.
"We feel like he is very special and he has some talent, but he has a good surrounding cast around him, and he has playmakers, he doesn't have to do it all on his own," Perales said of Montez. Senior Linebacker and Tight End Judas Contreras added, "I'm pretty sure we're unstoppable, and we can accomplish great things this year, because we have the talent, we have the size, and we have enough dedication and heart."
Saturday, September 1, Del Valle opens the season against Everman in Sweetwater, Texas.

Twilight Tour
An Enchanted Benefit Event
This year's twilight tour has been set for May 31st, 2014 at 5:00 pm.
As dusk approaches, the energy at Tanganyika Wildlife Park takes on an enchanting quality. While the sun starts to set, the senses begin to rise, turning toward other signs of the presence of these magnificent animals nearby. The reverberating roar of a lion, a sound heard most often at night, carrying nearly five miles as he announces his presence and lays claim to his land.
It's during this special time that we host our annual Twilight Tour, an exclusive benefit event supporting the Tanganyika Winter Fund. The Fund was first established in 2011 when we adopted several big cats and giraffes literally overnight from the Roosevelt Park Zoo, which was destroyed by a flood with an estimated $60 million needed to rebuild. While it was our honor and duty to respond, with these animals came the need for additional care that stretched our family-owned zoo's budget beyond its limits.
Join us for our annual Twilight Tour, an exclusive event benefiting the Tanganyika Winter Fund. This intimate evening includes wine and beer samplings, hors d'oeuvres, free unlimited interactive animal stations, visits with animal keepers, and a wildlife art auction.
Tickets are $55 per person. We also have a limited number of VIP passes for $125 ($1000 per table of 8) that include a special cocktail hour and meet and greet with the one and only Jim Fouts, owner of Tanganyika Wildlife Park with his wife Sherri. During the VIP Dinner sponsored by Hampel Oil, Jim will share stories of his travels around the world, the challenges facing our industry, and answer your questions about the Park while VIPs will enjoy a plated meal provided by Hereford House - Wichita. After touring the Park, VIPs will be able to return to their reserved tables to enjoy the Wichita Familiy Vision Animal Art auction which will be hosted by Mark Davidson and Leon Smitherman from KSN news.

PHOENIX -- Phoenix police are using new imaging technology to try to identify a body that was found more than a decade ago.
The man's body was found in a field near Southern and 13th avenues on April 7, 2001. Phoenix police said the unidentified victim died from an overdose a couple of days earlier.
The victim was described as Hispanic, 30 to 40 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall, 160 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, wearing green jeans, a purple and black jacket, plaid shirt and a cloth necklace.
No missing person reports were ever found that matched the victim description.
The victim had very distinctive colorful tattoos over much of his body and police are hoping they will help identify him. The victim's tattoos included:
Chest: banner with flowers and names
Left chest: dolphin and a heart with the name "Claudia" and "Gabriella"
Left arm: a bird and a child with two heads and a woman
Left forearm: Virgin Mary
Left elbow: spiral design
Right shoulder: abstract design
Right deltoid: crucifix
Right upper arm: illegible script
Right forearm: jack-in-the-box with a clown head
Right forearm: two women's heads
Lower left leg: abstract design
Left ankle: coral snake
Left back: two skulls
Left back: ill-defined tattoo with what appears to be wings
Right back: ill-defined tattoo of a woman with a sombrero
A photo forensic specialist created a computer-generated three-dimensional figure of the victim that depicts some of the more distinguishable tattoos (view the photos in the gallery above).
The Phoenix Police Department is asking anyone who may know the identity of this victim to call Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS or Crime Stop at 602-262-6151.
