ANCHORAGE, Alaska – The Alaska Attorney General's Office today joined the Native American Rights Fund (NARF), the American Civil Liberties Union, the Northern Justice Project, four Alaska Native elders and four tribal governments in announcing a settlement of litigation in Nick, et al. v. Bethel, et al. According to the settlement, the state of Alaska will make enhancements to language assistance for Yup'ik-speaking voters available at elections in the Bethel area.
The resolution of the case, originally filed in June 2007 on behalf of Alaska Native elders Anna Nick, Billy McCann, Arthur Nelson and David O. David and the tribal governments of Kasigluk, Kwigillingok, Tuluksak and Tuntutuliak, was welcomed by all parties involved.
"We are committed to equality under the law and fair voting practices and effective access to the voting booth for all Alaskans," said Alaska Attorney General Dan Sullivan. "We will vigorously implement the terms of this settlement."
The settlement recognizes improvements to language-assistance protocols implemented by the state during the 2008 and 2009 elections, while providing for enhancements designed to ensure that limited-English-proficient voters receive effective assistance.
"We are extremely pleased the state of Alaska will provide Yup'ik-speaking voters in the Bethel area with the tools they need to fully participate in the political process," said Natalie Landreth of NARF. "That is what this case was all about – equal access to the polls."
"Our right to vote is one of the most important that we as Americans possess," said Alaska Lieutenant Governor Craig Campbell, who oversees the Division of Elections. "Here in Alaska, we want all our citizens to exercise that right, regardless of where they live or the language they speak. We are pleased to have come together to ensure that this case is a win-win for Yup'ik-speaking voters and the state of Alaska."
"Every American deserves an equal voice in the political process," said Laughlin McDonald, Director of the ACLU Voting Rights Project. "The Constitution protects all Alaskans' right to vote regardless of what language they speak."
Key protocols for the Division of Elections include:
"I have said all along that all we wanted was to be able to understand what we are voting for. Now that will happen, and I am very, very happy," said Billy McCann, a plaintiff in the case. "Being a plaintiff is not easy, but when you come together to fix a problem like this, it is worth it."
State of Alaska attorneys who worked on the case are Gilman Dana S. Burke, Sarah J. Felix, Margaret A. Paton-Walsh and Michael Barnhill.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs are Natalie Landreth of NARF, Laughlin McDonald of the ACLU Voting Rights Project, James J. Davis, Jr. of Northern Justice Project, Dr. James T. Tucker, and attorneys from the ACLU of Alaska.

Santa Fe's Summer Markets
Andrea Gross | Jun 26, 2012, 2:48 p.m.
July 2011 I think I'm at a bazaar in India, a market in Mexico, a village in Africa. People in bright traditional garb are weaving baskets, beading necklaces, stitching scarves. A medley of sounds — light-hearted laughter, serious bargaining — and a multitude of languages fills the plaza. Exotic smells waft through the air.
In reality, my husband and I are in New Mexico, enjoying the first of three major art markets over the summer that transform Santa Fe first into a global village, next into a Spanish fair, and finally into a prestigious Native American art festival.
July 13-15 Folk Art Market
The season begins in July with the Folk Art Market, which in eight years has ballooned into the largest international folk art market in the world. Partly as a result of this event, Santa Fe was the first city in the United States to be named a UNESCO City of Craft and Folk Art.
More than 170 craftspeople, all of whom have survived a rigorous selection process, come from 55 countries. We walk the aisles, stopping to see silver jewelry from the Chinese province of Guizhou, ikat weavings from the Malaysian state of Sarawak, magnificent baskets from the Panamanian rain forest.
The pre-show attracts avid collectors who often drop big money for museum-quality pieces, but there are less expensive items as well. Best of all, fair-goers can visit with the artists, most of whom are accompanied by translators. One woman, a weaver from Sudan, tells us how the rebels killed her husband and burned her home. "I carried my children for many days until I reached a camp where I was safe," she tells us. "Now, thanks to this market, I support my family through my craft."
July 27-29 Spanish Market
While the Folk Art Market takes place several miles from the core of Santa Fe, the Spanish and Indian Markets, which are inextricably intertwined with the history and culture of New Mexico, are held in the downtown plaza, a collection of adobe buildings, some of which date back to the early 1600s.
In order to immerse ourselves in the atmosphere, we check into the Hotel Chimayó de Santa Fe. Like the Hotel St. Francis a few blocks away, the Chimayó is owned by Heritage Hotels, a company that takes special care to have its properties reflect New Mexico's culture.
After admiring the Southwestern décor reflected in everything from the chandeliers to the rugs, we wander through the largest exhibition of traditional Hispanic arts in the United States. In short order we learn that santos, which depict saints, come in two versions (three-dimensional bultos and two-dimensional retablos), that tin and straw are frequently used materials in Spanish art, and that the handsomely carved wood furniture is much too large to fit in our house.
Back in the hotel, the chef at Tia's Cocina serves up traditional meals based on his grandmother's recipes. I choose "village tacos" for my main course, but I'm stumped when it comes to selecting the chile sauce. Do I want green, which is often — but, says the waiter, not always — hotter? Or should I get red, which is usually, but not always, more pungent?

Green Revolution no boon for hungry in hot climates
We have plenty of reasons to curse our cold climate, with its short summers and seemingly endless, brutally cold winters -- this past year being a notable exception.
But when it comes to keeping the crops Prairie farmers grow in good, usable condition until they reach the customer, a few dry, cold months simply can't be beat.
Although there is plenty of evidence showing how quickly a stored crop can deteriorate in heat and humidity, it would have to get a lot colder than we've ever experienced to see a quality loss due to a Prairie winter.
Farmers here still must monitor their crops in storage to ensure insects haven't moved in or rapid changes in temperature haven't caused their crops to sweat, which attracts mould. But by and large, the climate here gives them a huge advantage when it comes to quality preservation.
By comparison, consider the dilemma facing authorities in India these days, where bumper harvests, thanks to government production incentives, have combined with a lack of storage to cause major losses to rot. State warehouses can store only 63 million tonnes and current government-owned stocks are sitting at 82.4 million tonnes. Plus, farmers have just harvested another record crop.
A Reuters story this week notes brimming granaries prompted India to lift a four-year-old ban on exports in September, but wheat is still being stored under tarpaulins.
Lack of infrastructure makes it logistically easier for authorities to dump the surplus on the export market -- even if it takes subsidies of up to $100 per tonne to do it -- than get it to the 500 million poor in a country where nearly half the children under age three are underweight or stunted due to malnutrition.
It's a tragic twist in the ongoing debate over the Green Revolution, the 1960s initiative for which American Norman Borlaug received a Nobel Prize. With the best of intentions, U.S. and Canadian researchers introduced improved genetics, fertilizers and pesticides to help India produce more of its own food and avert a pending famine.
It has since become clear that while the concept was remarkably successful at increasing production, it hasn't meant the end of hunger. Without the necessary infrastructure, market mechanisms and storage to help get the food to the people who need it, India -- like many countries in hot, humid climates -- has routinely been confronted with surplus production and a lot of losses due to waste.
And when it resorts to exports to clear up the stockpiles, the increased supply dumped on world markets drives down prices for farmers everywhere.
The world can't afford this. Non-renewable resources are being consumed, and greenhouse gases are being generated to produce food that never gets eaten. Wastage is just as high in our society, where food is so deceptively cheap we buy more than we can eat before it spoils.
"Many of the breakthroughs in food production are literally being wasted because food that should be filling hungry mouths is often spoiled before it can be consumed," Digvir Jayas, a professor in biosystems engineering and the University of Manitoba's vice-president of research and international development, says in a recently published article.
We have heard repeatedly we must increase production from 50 to 70 per cent if we are to feed nine billion people by 2050. Even the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) was spouting that line less than two years ago.
But a newly released FAO report noted the world can feed itself with less food output than previously forecast if it turns to sustainable farming, cuts waste and stops excessive consumption. It said "bold policy decisions" are needed to cut food losses and waste that amount to 1.3 billion tonnes a year, roughly one-third of the world's food production for human consumption.
There's the rub. A commitment to less waste requires policy in a world that increasingly follows the money.
And right now, the money -- pretty much everything from the research to how producers get paid -- is based on boosting production.

Written for Rob Frear's trumpet ensemble at California State University Long Beach. The piece starts as 6 individual voices, eventually blending into 3 movements: Fanfare, Canon, and Presto-3 views of the trumpet that form a triangle of trumpeting within the range and technical facility of a good high school or college-level ensemble. The audio sample is from Rob Frear's new CD In the Big City, which is available through CD Baby.

a utility for testing promise code
Promise Testing
A testing library for then-able promises.
- Implementation independent. Should work with any Promise/A+ conformant library. (Test suite runs against Q and When).
- Runs in Node or directly in the browser.
- Support for NPM and Component package managers.
- Test/Assertion framework agnostic. Support for Mocha and Chai built in.
Quick Start
See the example;
Create a new test engine.
Node.js or Component
var PromiseTesting = require'promise-testing';var engine = ;
In the browser (included via script tag)
var engine = ;
Add Chai Support.
If you are using any chai extensions (i.e. SinonChai) before calling the scanChai method.
Wrap Promises or Patch Methods.
Promises need to be wrapped by a wrapper object for testing.
var rawPromise = someServicecreatePromise;var wrappedPromise = enginewraprawPromise;
Functions that always return promises can be
patched for convenience
enginepatchsomeService'createPromise';//all calls to the patched function now return a wrappedPromise var wrappedPromise1 = someServicecreatePromise;var wrappedPromise2 = someServicecreatePromise;
You can now use chai expectations just like you normally would, however they won't be run until the promise completes.
is equivalent to
promisethen expectresulttoequal'hello';then done; //No Error - test passes done //There was an error - pass it to done ;

Teen Arrested in Fatal Robbery Attempt
By KWGS News
Tulsa, OK – A 15-year-old is now in custody in connection with last Thursday night's fatal convenience store attempted armed robbery in north Tulsa. A 14-year-old accomplice was shot and killed during the robbery as the store clerk returned fire from the robbers.
The name of the 15-year-old is not being released as he is a minor. He was taken into custody last night.
Tulsa Police officer Leland Ashley says it is not uncommon for clerks, especially in smaller mom and pop type convenience stores to be armed.

Kimya Dawson's Band the Bundles to Release Debut Album
By Tom Breihan on December 18, 2009 at 5:15 p.m. EST
Photo by Sarah Cass
Early in the decade, Kimya Dawson (formerly of Moldy Peaches) and Jeffrey Lewis were leading lights of New York's antifolk scene. They've been kicking around ever since, Dawson even sniffing mainstream fame thanks to her contributions to the Juno soundtrack. In 2001, the pair joined forces to form a band called the Bundles, gigging and recording infrequently. On March 9, K Records will finally release their first album.
Like some antifolk Voltron, the Bundles also include fellow singer-songwriter Karl Blau and two members of Lewis's band, Anders Griffen and brother Jack Lewis. Earlier this year, they recorded their self-titled debut at Dub Narcotic Studios in Olympia, Washington. Predictably whimsical song titles include "Shamrock Glamrock" and "Ishalicious". Click below for the tracklist.

!!!'s Nic Offer Talks About New Album, Late Drummer Jerry Fuchs
By Tom Breihan on December 17, 2009 at 12:30 p.m. EST
Photo by Kathryn Yu
Throughout the past decade, the unruly Brooklyn punk-funk mob !!! have been a party-starting institution, turning crowds of buttoned-up indie kids into sweat-drenched bacchanalians since back before anyone thought that was cool. A !!! show is pretty much guaranteed to be a fun, ridiculous night out. But since the last !!! album, 2007's Myth Takes, the band has been through a messy, chaotic time. First, original member John Pugh left the band. Then, former drummer Jerry Fuchs died shockingly and tragically in a Brooklyn elevator accident just last month.
But !!! soldiers on, and they'll release a new album next year. We caught up with frontman Nic Offer to talk about the new album and everything that has happened in the past few years.

Amazon Leaks Lil Wayne's Rebirth
By Tom Breihan on December 16, 2009 at 1:25 p.m. EST
Somebody is so fired. After six different release date changes, Rebirth, Lil Wayne's forthcoming rock album, isn't due in stores until February 1. But the album is now out there in the world, thanks to Amazon.com.
Billboard reports that the online retail giant mistakenly sent 500 copies of the CD to customers who had pre-ordered it. A "shipping mishap" was the reason for the early leak, which caused Rebirth to show up in mailboxes this past Monday.

Students and working professionals took time off to express their solidarity with the ongoing campaign and fast-unto-death by social activist Anna Hazare in New Delhi, here on Thursday.
The protest, which commenced pre-noon at Freedom Park, went on through the day and saw further support towards evening when a candlelight rally was organised.
It was a medley of the young and old, students and professionals, seasoned activists and well-heeled urbanites that formed this rally. Most of them testified that they were inspired by the massive New Delhi rally.
Jan Lokpal Bill
Led by non-governmental organisations here, protesters expressed their opposition to the Lokpal Bill and sought participation of civil society in the drafting of the more progressive Jan Lokpal Bill that will give extra powers to the office of the Lokpal to tackle corruption. Prithvi Reddy, a volunteer with the NGO Smart Vote, said that politicians' attempts to trash the campaign calling it a "cosmopolitan and middleclass campaign" won't take the debate very far.
Rama Lakshmi, a volunteer supporting India Against Corruption, said it was high time the country woke up.
Ordinary people
The protests also inspired several non-activists to turn up. An IT professional, Krisna Bhat, who left work early to make it for the candlelight vigil, said the campaign was heating up as many organisations were seen mobilising support outside IT offices, the ITPB and even malls. "It is very important for the youth to speak up," said Mr. Bhat, who claimed many youth groups were ready to take up this cause and see it to its logical end.

Jon Dough was the stage name of Chester Anuszak (November 12, 1962 – August 27, 2006), an American pornographic actor who worked steadily from 1985 to 2006.
Early life[edit]
Dough grew up in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. At eight years old his mother's boyfriend began sexually abusing Jon and his younger brother. At 15, Jon was sent to live with his uncle.[1]
After graduating from college, Dough moved to Los Angeles, where he initially tried breaking into soap operas. However, a photo shoot at Hustler quickly resulted in steady work in the adult industry.[2] His first film was a short loop he made for Lance Kinkaid in 1985.[3]
In 1999, Vivian Valentine received a black eye after being hit by Jon during the filming of Anabolic Video's Rough Sex; however, she has said: "I have no regrets or bad feelings about it".[4]
As Dough or one of his other performing aliases, he was a veteran of nearly 1,100 adult videos and had directed 71 titles, according to the IAFD. One of his most noteworthy achievements was participating in a gangbang with 101 women,[5] becoming[clarification needed] as well the first DVD published by the adult-magazine publisher Hustler.
Reportedly, the character Johnny Doe in the film Boogie Nights was loosely based on Dough.[6]
Personal life and death[edit]
Dough's first marriage was to Deidre Holland, a pornographic actress, whom he later divorced. He remarried pornographic actress Monique DeMoan, with whom he had a daughter.
Dough died on August 27, 2006, in Chatsworth, California, of suicide by hanging. He was 43 years old. DeMoan discovered his body in a closet in their home.[7]
DeMoan subsequently left the industry and is raising their daughter in an undisclosed location.[8]

Excellent starter camera
By Deanna

About Me Photography Student
The only thing I'd complain about are the lens choices - they don't really fit with the style I use. Otherwise it's a beautiful camera. I've used it for covers and outdoor sports so far - no complaints, especially for the price.
