Draft rumors: Hornets' No. 11 pick available
|06.24.10 at 11:04 am ET
Yahoo! Sports reports that the Hornets are listening to offers for the No. 11 pick because they need money. The pick probably would come with the requirement that the acquiring team take on the salary of former Celtic James Posey or Julian Wright. This comes on the heels of rumors that star point guard Chris Paul could be traded if the right deal comes along.
Yahoo! also reports that the Kings have settled on Kentucky big man DeMarcus Cousins with the fifth pick.
The New York Daily News' Frank Isola reports that the Knicks, without a first-round pick, are looking to find a way into the first round, with their sights set on Iowa State forward Craig Brackins, New Mexico small forward Darinngton Hobson or Maryland guard Greivis Vasquez.

|Kids can discover how to make all sorts of things happen at the Little People Racin' Ramps Garage from Fisher-Price. It's just their size. So they're in the driver's seat, racing down the three-story ramps, going up and down in the elevator, and pressing down on the driver in the car for fun sounds! Includes mechanic, driver, car and tow truck. Requires 2 "AA" batteries. Please dispose of batteries safely. Since 1930, Fisher-Price has been in business to create toys that fascinate and stimulate a child's imagination. Fisher-Price was founded in 1930, hardly the best time to launch a new business as the shadows of the Depression still loomed over American business. Still, Herman Fisher, Irving Price and Helen Schelle combined their diverse manufacturing and retailing experience to create a toy company and confidently brought 16 wooden toys to the International Toy Fair in New York City. The whimsical nature and magical surprises of those first Fisher-Price toys quickly caught on and became the hallmarks of Fisher-Price ever since. Fisher-Price believes in the potential of children and in the importance of a supportive environment in which they can grow, learn, and get the best possible start in life. Fisher-Price supports today's families with young children through our breadth of products that includes GeoTrax, Imaginext, Little People, Laugh and Learn, Thomas the Tank, Thomas and Friends, Elmo, Dora the Explorer, Go Diego Go, Sesame Street, Smart Cycle, Ni Hao Kai-Lan, Toy Story and other learning toys and pretend play items.

Decent toy7/11/2012
We don't own this but the babysitter does and our son is playing with it often when we come pick him up. He loves cars so this is no brainer that he would like it. The durability could be better but as long as you are not too ruff with it it shoudl last a long time. I would recommend it for children that like cars and racing.

I think it's a good idea but doesn't stay put together which is a nuisance.

If the housing societies take the lead, then something can happen
The Pune Municipal Corporation is responsible for disposing and recycling of e-waste generated in the city. The civic body has to find out ways and methods of disposing and recycling e-waste. At individual level, we dump the e-waste in our dustbins, which then lands up in our garbage disposal system. Some of the e-waste is being incinerated, which is all the more dangerous for the environment and human health. The situation is such that we don' t want to segregate our household waste. If the housing societies take the initiative in collecting e-waste and then handing it to over to the PMC for disposal and recycling, then something can happen. PMC must make it mandatory for producers of electronic goods to collect e-waste and help in its proper disposal and recycling. The end-users of electronic products also have to be aware of health hazards from e-waste. Disposal of e-waste has to be very carefully handled as it contains a high degree of chemical and minerals. If not managed correctly, the outcome can be much more hazardous than other waste. All the concerned -- be it the manufacturer, user or the municipal corporation -- need to be more responsible about sharing of information, health hazards and disposal.
—Qaneez Sukhrani, civic activist
PMC should mark dedicated areas where citizens can drop e-waste
E-waste disposal and recycling is the responsibility of PMC. The administration has to realise that the city is facing very critical situation as far as the piling up of e-waste is concerned. Right now, the civic body does not have any dedicated facility to handle the city's e-waste. The e-waste that is landing up with the garbage disposal system is being handled by untrained people, putting them to high risk. The PMC has to mark certain dedicated areas where citizens can drop the e-waste. It should appoint trained and authorised persons to handle the e-waste. These days you can see some people moving around in the city distributing pamplets saying they are authorised e-waste collectors, but the truth is PMC has not given any such authorisation to anyone. It has to formulate a policy on proper e-waste disposable system otherwise the lives of citizens will always be at risk.
—Satish Khot, president, National Society for Clean Cities
There is a need for capacity building on e-waste mgmt
First of all the manufacturers of e-products must be made to take some responsibility of disposing and recycling of e-waste. There is a need for capacity building on management of e-waste, starting with the users of the e-products. The civic administration is doing something and they have a policy on e-waste management. There are ragpickers who are children and women, involved in handling the e-waste. In fact, the e-waste should not reach these people. The solution for managing e-waste is with the PMC and it has to do something. Managing e-waste has become a matter of concern and it is an environmental and health hazard.
—Erach Barucha, director, Bharati Vidyapeeth, Institute of Environment Education & Research
People are not aware of importance of e-waste disposal
Proper e-waste management is joint responsibility of the civic administration, manufacturers and the end users. The onus is on the PMC in creating sources of e-waste collection and recycling. Big companies definitely have an in-house process to handle e-waste. Ten years back, mobile phones were being used by one person in a family, but today each person owns one or two mobile phones and along with it they have a laptop, PC at home and other electronic gadgets. It is obvious that e-waste has increased manifold. At the corporate level they are the maximum consumers of e-products. Companies have to look at avenues of dumping these e-waste. The big problem is that people are not yet aware of the importance of proper disposal of e-waste. The fact is that even I don't know where to throw the e-waste, so I have no option but to dump it in the dustbin.
—Abhijit Atre, past president, SEAP
India has only two e-waste recycling plants at Bangalore and Chennai
We have proposed two e-waste collection centres for the city -- one at Hadapsar and the other at Kothrud. It is a proposal which we are working out with the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB). We will also be using the SWACH channel in helping with the e-waste management. Recently, German International Cooperation, GIZ along with PMC, MCCIA, PCMC and MPCB had done a study on the sources of e-waste in the city, what is happening to the e-waste now, and what is the solution to manage e-waste. At present, India has only two e-waste recycling plants at Bangalore and Chennai. In 2007, the city was generating 2,500 metric tonnes of e-waste and now the number might have increased considerably.
—Suresh Jagtap, joint municipal commissioner (Solid Waste Management), PMC
The e-waste
Discarded computer monitors, motherboards, cathode ray tubes, mobile phones, chargers, CDs, headphones, LCD/plasma TVs, AC, refrigerators etc.
Fact file
* Over 4.5 lakh children across the country are exposed to toxic chemicals as they handle discarded electronic gadgets
* Of the total 12.5 lakh MT of e-waste generated in India, only 4 pc is recycled while the remaining is handled by scrap dealers
* When the e-waste is burnt to recover copper and other precious metal, kids come into contact with over 1,000 toxic substances
* This is likely to cause irreversible damage to their liver, kidney and the nervous system

U.S. Won't Withhold Israeli Aid
Envoy Mitchell's hint was apparently innocuous
While being interviewed last week on Charlie Rose, U.S. Special Envoy George Mitchell noted, "under American law, the United States can withhold support on loan guarantees to Israel." That's technically true. But since Mitchell has been tasked by the Obama administration with getting the Israelis and the Palestinians back to the negotiating table, the Israelis were a little curious as to whether Mitchell was speaking more than just matter-of-factly, and as more than just a person who happens to be familiar with that area of American law. Was his answer a hint? A veiled threat?
Turns out that, according to an assistant secretary of state, Mitchell was merely answering a direct question:
Mitchell was simply asked a question with an historical context. You know, are there sticks that are available? And I think he mentioned that this is a step that the United States has taken in the past … He wasn't signaling that this is something that we're forecasting in the future. You know, but it is—it obviously is something that we have in our toolbox. It's not that we're out, you know, wielding that particular tool at this particular time.
If Mitchell was in fact launching a trial balloon, to see how the notion of threatening to withhold Israeli aid would go over, then he appears to have gotten his answer.

Great owner - great property
We booked this house with Andrew for a last minute long term rental for a business trip to LA. Being a first time user of VRBO I wasn't familiar with the process, but Andrew was extremely accommodating, flexible, and accommodating to our needs. Really great communication throughout the month long rental period. The house itself was great and perfect for what we are looking for. I wouldn't hesitate to book this property again. Great experience.

Sikh leaders are taking the initiative to curb extravagance at weddings. On Sunday, representatives of 17 gurudwaras met at Khar to discuss ways to do this and put an end to the game of one-upmanship associated with grand weddings among Sikh families.
"The meeting was to ensure that people spend less on marriages. These days marriage expenses run into lakhs. We feel the money wasted on fancy weddings should be utilised to better educate and socially uplift the community," said Pritam Singh, treasurer, Sri Guru Singh Sabha in Khar, where the meting was held.
Sikh weddings have, over the years, grown in grandiosity with members of the community growing richer. The catering rates per plate in some of these marriages are as high as Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,000.
"The trend is to have Mexican, Italian, Thai and Chinese dishes with a large number of sweets added in. However, there isn't a matching capacity to eat, the result often being a lot of food being wasted. But this splurging, instead of triggering consternation, make many others in the community feel inferior and envious. We are now thinking in terms of introducing a code of conduct where not more than one dal, two/three vegetables, raitas, etc are served," said Kanwal Nain Singh, chairperson of the trust looking after Gurudwara Kalgidhar Sabha in Dahisar.
Decorations too eat into the purse, say Gurudwara representatives. "There was a time when people conducted marriages spending just a few thousand rupees," said Avtar Singh Sachdev, president, Khar Gurudwara, who took the initiative in organising the meeting.
"These days, even at gatherings post death (of a person), a number of dishes are served. It's unnecessary, tea and light snacks should do."
In the meeting it was decided to approach more Gurudwaras in the city on the issue. They are expected to make announcements at Sunday gatherings and Kirtans to help spread the word among the community.
"In Sikhism, one has to spend 10% of one's budget for social upliftment. Garib ka mu guru ki golakh (mouth of the poor is coffer of the Guru); that's what Sikkism teaches," said Manmohan Singh, secretary, Sri Guru Singh Sabha, central body of all Sikhs. He added: It's in fact aadesh or order of the SGPC that 5% of the budget should go towards social betterment."

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

We show monthly charts of the MDY (SPDR Mid-cap Series Trust), the IJR (iShares Small Cap 600) and the SPY (SPDR S&P 500 Trust) below. Readers should note the performance of these ETFs since 2000.
Notice how, after the 2000-2002 recession/decline, Small- and Mid-Cap stocks also outperformed. For those who suggest the SPY has a stronger Financial Sector weighting, we show a monthly chart of the good old XMI (Major Markets Index) -- 20 big blue-chip names, equally weighted. This eliminates financial "weighting" issues, and enables us to zero in on mega caps vs. smaller capitalization issues. The XMI outperformed the SPY, but still lagged Mid- and Small-Cap names. This has happened after other recessions -- interested readers can email us for copies of our report on this phenomenon. Here at the FRED Report, we believe the reason for this is that Mid- and Small-Cap indices are more in tune with the U.S. economy rather than multinational firms. Historically, the U.S. economy has led the way out of recessions and investors endeavoring to take advantage of this have bought these issues first. We could see some change in this pattern, however, as U.S. stocks look to outperform international markets in 2011. Foreign money has a tendency to enter the U.S. via Large Cap names first, and then gradually filter down into Mid-Cap names. One reason for this is that portfolio managers in other countries tend to buy "household name" stocks first, as their clients are more comfortable with these U.S. stocks. These stocks are often in Consumer Staples (XLP) and similar sectors. Should these stocks start to outperform, we will devote more attention to them later in 2011.

It is true that necessity is the mother of innovation, but creativity is its father. Creativity among children is almost in-born; the degree may vary, but not the basic manifestation. There are many children who are more creative and innovative than adults. They are open to exploration, experimentation and discovery. "While our generation was willing to live with problems unsolved indefinitely, our children don't want to do that anymore," says Anil Gupta, founder, Honey Bee Network. Children today look at things with fresh eyes and a perspective untainted by everyone else's opinion. "They learn about their world around them by pushing the limits, discovering what's possible and what's not," he adds.
Take for example the city buses in India. Most of us have seen bus drivers driving away before the passengers have either boarded the bus or alighted. It doesn't matter if anyone falls down and gets injured. However, apart from just cribbing about such problems in our drawing rooms or office corridors, we do nothing. Mercifully enough, the new generation of children are not so tolerant with inefficiency any more.
R. Santhosh, Class 11, from Tamil Nadu couldn't live with this problem so he suggested that a bus should not start as long as there is anyone standing on the steps of the bus. He calls it the 'Step Lock System in Bus'. "Hopefully, it will become part of the standards for making buses so that no child woman or man would ever fall from the steps of the bus because the driver is in a hurry or the transport authorities don't care," says Nitin Maurya, innovative officer, National Innovation Foundation.
All of us need access to creativity to solve the problems of daily life, even if it is as petty as getting away from being scolded by your parents. Kulsoom Rizavi, a Class 5 student from Lucknow is a case in point. She used to get reprimanded by her mother regarding her faulty posture. "Whenever I used to sit at the computer or was watching TV, I would either lie down or sit too close to the screen," recollects Rizavi.
One day Rizavi was upset because of the scolding, and that's when the idea to create a "posture correcting chair" struck her mind. "I thought how good it would be if instead of my mother yelling at me all the time, the chair on which I sit alerts me about the wrong posture," she says.
Currently, Rizavi is working on the prototype of the chair which works through electricity. The real chair however, will work on battery so that one can carry it anywhere. "The mechanism will have bio sensors attached at the back of the chair which will detect if the user is sitting in the wrong posture. It will then send signals to an alarm which will be attached at the back of the chair and it will start to ring. The alarm would keep ringing till the person corrects his/her posture," informs Rizavi. She hopes that the entire nation would benefit from her innovation. "This would contribute to a healthier India. I hope to develop more such innovative projects," she adds.
Kids like Rizavi and Santhosh are here to make a difference. Soumya Ranajan Behera, a class VIII student from Odisha, also has an innovative mind. He evolved the concept of an alarm to indicate an onset of convulsions/ seizures. "It is a device to be worn by an epileptic patient which will blow a siren when there is an episode of epilepsy," informs Behera.
Behera's friend who suffered from epilepsy, a neurological disorder, lost his life due to an episode that occurred when he was bathing in the village pond. "Although there were some who were nearby, no one noticed him fall. This made me think of different ways I could've prevented it. If there was a kind of device put on the patient that would emit a siren when the episode occurs, it could save lives," he says.
Anyone can be innovative, it is just that an ecosystem needs to be there to identify and nurture these ideas. The biggest challenge such innovative children face is of acceptability. Their peers, friends, teachers and even parents may mock at their creative pursuits and discourage them. "We can't give children talent, but we can train the eye, the ear and the mind, and we can help our children gain access to a creative way of seeing. We can also help them gain the concentration, competence, perseverance, and optimism necessary to succeed in creative pursuits," says Gupta.
Originality, creativity and innovative spirit among children need to be promoted so that when they become leaders of our society, they ensure an imaginative, inclusive and an innovative future for the country. Many a times an innovative mind is left unattended and who knows maybe your child could be the next Einstein. "In my opinion not only parents, teachers or family members, but everyone should always encourage children instead of discouraging them because today's youth is tomorrow's future," concludes Maurya.
Game Changer
Make the change to see the change, says Anil Gupta
Each school should set up innovation clubs to pursue four goals: search, spread, sense [unmet needs] and celebrate innovations
Children should be engaged in benchmarking societal inertia so that the future will overcome deeply institionalised inertia
We should encourage children to start up enterprise if some of them wish
We could give concession in marks and attendance to innovative children if need be, and also scholarships to underprivileged children
School textbooks should include examples of innovation by children and innovators

Experience dark winter as never before; this plugin adds a great island far north, until recently completely isolated from Tamrielic law. Now that the Imperials have arrived and colonized the island, complications with the local Nords are undeniably present and the area's agitation is tangible.
As promised here are the final titles of all 10 quests appearing in Prerelease 1.
Posted by TeamTI on Oct 7th, 2008
As promised here are the final titles of all 10 quests appearing in Prerelease 1. All quests are done except 2 being in finalizing stages. Some quest titles may be changed in the last minute but the chance of it happening is extremely low.
Some quests are longer than others but the length of them all together is set to be between 1 and 2 hours. Of course the final release will be much longer. We have not yet decided whether we're going to allow access to the full island in the Prerelease. We expect to have the Prerelease out in November.
Main quest:

A good product
posted 6 years ago
This is a great product,but you really need to know the correct way of using salt,as not to cause additional problems to your tank.
Pros: good for treating small ailments
Cons: can build up in your tank

If you're looking to spend your Hawaiian vacation in a small picturesque town in a secluded area, only 35 minutes from Honolulu, this is the place for you! It has a variety of excellent restaurants, and it's a great place for all water sports including snorkeling, scuba diving, surfing, windsurfing, and kayaking.

Honu Hale is situated on the ocean, with unobstructed ocean views and an unbeatable quiet and private location. Come stay where the people of Oahu come to get away from the crowds.

There are no hotels in Mokuleia and we have empty white sand beaches for miles and miles. This is the Hawaii you dreamed of and thought you could only find on the Outer Islands.
A great horseback riding and equestrian center is just down the street. Enjoy the sunset every day in your backyard from the bubbling Jacuzzi® or on the rooftop deck.
Our backyard is your beach - an amazingly beautiful and peaceful setting of nearly private uncrowded beaches. Mokuleia provides some of Oahu's best and least crowded surfing. Most of our guests enjoy staying close to home and enjoying the ultimate Hawaiian Paradise. Within a 10 minute drive are fine restaurants, quaint shops, a marina for fishing and sightseeing, and North Shore's world famous surfing. Just a short drive from the nearly private beaches and sets of both popular TV series 'Lost' and 'Baywatch' (Hale'iwa). Honu Hale's location is also a great home base if you are interested in sightseeing. Conveniently located 10 minutes from the H2 Hwy, you can get across the island within 20 minutes.
No events, parties, or weddings allowed.

Best vacation ever!
Honu Hale....a perfect getaway!!
Honu Hale could NOT have been more perfect! It had all the comforts of home and complete w/ all of the amenities needed for a tropical vacation.
We were less than 10 min away from Haleiwa. An awesome surf town full of shops and Restaurants. The locals could not have been more kind and helpful to help make our stay perfect.
Our family had a wonderful time from Pop Pop all the way down to the grandkids.
Our only complaint was hurricane Iselle gave us some rain on our last day there.
Your home gave our families memories that will last forever.

Cuenca, Ecuador
My Rating
We loved this trip!!! Our guide Balen (apologies if I am not spelling her name correctly) was wonderful. We are not usually "guide" people, but we loved this hiking experience. Balen was a great hiking guide, but also very skilled and imparting information without being obtrusive. We did two hikes with our group (which was just us and one other participant). An easy one around the lake to gauge the groups fitness and a more intense hike up into the mountains, which was the perfect level of challenge for us and filled with breathtaking views....

SALEM, Ore. -- The Marion County sheriff's office says a 14-year-old Salem boy was wounded while playing with a gun with a 11-year-old friend.
The .45 caliber semi-automatic handgun belongs to the father of one of the boys. They were playing with it Thursday afternoon in the garage of a duplex when it fired.
The 11-year-old boy was showing the gun to his friends when it discharged, investigators said.
Jesse Arredondo, 14, was shot in his right shoulder. He was treated at the hospital with non life-threatening injuries and released.
The 11-year-old boy's father told deputies the gun is normally stored in a safe in his home and he was not aware the son was playing with the gun.

Identity: Yours, Mine, Ours, Immigration Museum Exhibition, 2011-2021
Image: Tin - Piccaninny Floor Polish
Source: Museum Victoria
Identity: yours, mine, ours explores who we are, who others think we are, and what it means to belong and not belong in Australia. The exhibition focuses on how cultural heritage, languages, beliefs, and family connections have, and do, influence our self-perceptions and our perceptions of others. This can lead to discovery, confusion, prejudice and understanding.
Engaging personal stories, intriguing objects, compelling images and interactive multimedia experiences invite visitors to find both expected and unexpected connections with others, as well as challenge the assumptions we make about each other every day.
The exhibition encourages visitors (both in the gallery and online) to share their stories, affirm their identities and celebrate diversity in our community.
This exhibition has offered an exciting opportunity to bring together and creatively interpret a diverse array of material culture that will often be unexpected in the context of the Immigration Museum. Popular culture, racist and anti-racist ephemera, religious and sporting items, Aboriginal historical and contemporary cultural material, and an eclectic mix of artworks are all combined and interpreted to challenge visitors beyond the more conventional narratives of migration. Over 130 objects have been drawn primarily from the Museum's History and Technology collections (including the Migration, Cultural Identity, and Numismatic collections). Community and institutional loans relating to particular personal stories are also included, including those exploring Aboriginal experiences.
An interactive display exploring the theme of First Impressions incorporates a small number of objects which have either symbolic resonance about diverse forms of visible identities or represent personal experiences of family connection and disconnection.
The theme of Belonging draws upon museum and community objects to explore a variety of personal and collective experiences which cross time and culture - both in inter-cultural and cross-cultural ways. This theme is object rich and eclectic and places artefacts together in unexpected ways. Moreover the focus on Creativity within this theme provides the opportunity to present a cornucopia of beautiful often thought-provoking artworks which all explore personal identity in ways unique to the experiences and chosen media of the artists. This case features objects from the Museum's Immigration and Artistic Practice collection while also bringing in new works on loan or purchased by unrepresented communities. Short videos provide further insights into personal and community stories and the related objects, with cultural and faith representation including: Albanian Muslim, Irish, Brazilian, Caribbean, Scottish, Indian Sikh, Wotjobaluk, Naga, Jewish, Vietnamese, Sudanese, Latvian, German, Chinese, Christian Fijian, Greek, Japanese, and Wathaurong.
The final theme of Difference uses objects in very different and often confronting ways. A small number of objects provide material representations of theories and politics of race over time within the context of a strong graphic presentation and text-based historical narrative. These items range from an early magic lantern slide to an anti-racism protest badge. Another section draws on a rich, colourful and very familiar array of objects, including toys, games, clothing, advertising material and product packaging, to explore how popular culture has affected the creation and perpetuation of stereotypes. Some of these items are clearly prejudicial, while other more subtle objects consider the complexities of intention and interpretation according to the different viewpoints of the producer, target and consumer across time.
This is a long-term exhibition and some objects will change over time as new stories are represented and conservation requirements mean that more fragile items are removed from display and exchanged for new ones.

PeaceHealth's Response to Supreme Court Ruling
Today the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to uphold the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (health care reform). Below is PeaceHealth's initial response to the ruling. PeaceHealth may make a more comprehensive statement once the High Court's decision has been more thoroughly analyzed.
PeaceHealth Statement:
The Supreme Court's decision allows us all to move forward on the path to reform. We continue to study the implications of the decision. Challenges remain, particularly with regard to Medicaid financing. PeaceHealth supports reform based on our longstanding conviction that all Americans should have access to basic health services and health insurance. The real work now begins to improve access in the face of chronic Medicaid underfunding and the federal deficit. PeaceHealth remains committed to fulfilling our healing mission to care for all in need.

WWII: Internments for San Diego's Japanese-Americans
A couple's bond; both were sent to internment camps in their youth
After a few years spent helping his father make a living as a gardener, Yukio passed the civil service exam. For the next three decades, he worked for the federal government, becoming a civilian computer analyst for the U.S. Navy. Life was good, especially after he met Mitsuko at a Young Buddhist Association dance in 1955. They married three years later.
Neither Kawamoto has bad memories of camp. But they believe those years took a toll on their parents.
"As far as families were concerned, especially kids my age — we never spent time with our parents," Yukio said. "I didn't do anything bad, but I never felt they were strong authorities, like they were before the war. It definitely undermined their authority."
Their parents, though, never complained — and neither did their adult children. At home, Yukio and Mitsuko rarely mentioned World War II or the internment camps to their three sons.
"And there wasn't a whole lot of Japanese culture in our home," said Jon Kawamoto, 51, now a biotech executive in Northern California. "I think they were influenced by the internment camp experience to downplay their Japanese-American culture and experience."
Slowly, though, that changed. After he retired in 1980, Yukio volunteered at the Buddhist Temple of San Diego and the Japanese American Historical Society. The couple's living room now includes Japanese artwork, and both husband and wife speak at schools and universities. Students are often baffled by their accounts. Why did Washington force these Americans into exile?
The Kawamotos are puzzled, too.

Cycling for Children's Education
Baan Dada has held Cycling for Education event each year since 2012!
In October 4, 2014, 8 children from Baan Dada Children's Home, Boonmi, Ekachai, Dajae, Kamput, Eh, Mongkon, Pithu, Tasada as well as Dada Ramakrishna, Dada Prashanta and two volunteers took part in an intense, endurance bike ride to raise money for university tuition and accommodations for the upcoming school year for 10 children from Baan Dada and surrounding areas of Sangkhlaburi. As a true test of endurance, riders stopped only for food and to use the toilet. Cyclists rode 150 km from Baan Dada Children's Home located outside Sangkhlaburi, Thailand. 7,400 USD out of 13,035 USD needed was raised through the cycling event!
In April 2013 Cycling for Children's Education event raised money to pay school fees for 50 children studying in elementary and secondary school. Dada Ramakrishna, Fa, Malai, Yada, Mayuree, Johnny, Ramesh and volunteers Carl, Erin, Weiliang, Lim Yi and Dao, cycled from Kanchanaburi to Phuket in 4.5 days, a total of 895km! We stayed in temples and cheap guesthouses along the way. We were able to raise a total of 122,000 baht on road after expenses!
Walk for Education
Baan Dada has held Walk for Education event each year since 2010!
The 2014 Walk for Education event of 39 km from Baan Dada Children's Home to Three Pagodas Pass began on 13th April. See the Flyer 2014 in Thai or in English. In October 2013 walk participants walked from Sangkhlaburi to Kanchanaburi (218km) to raise money to pay school fees for 50 children studying in elementary and high school. There were 17 children participating, ranging in ages 10 – 15 years, along with Dada Prashanta. There were also five volunteers, along with 12 school students and two teachers from Singapore who completed the walk. We stayed in schools along the way and cooked our own food. We completed the walk in four days in relay style and spent two nights camping at Erawan waterfall having some fun. We were able to raise US$7,500 on the road after expenses!!!
Solo Cycling for Education
Dada Ramakrishna has done Solo Cycling for Education each year in September since 2012!
In his 2013 Solo Cycling for Education he cycled from Kanchanaburi (Thailand) to Singapore (yes, Singapore!) in hot and rainy weather. The journey took him eleven days and he covered 2,027km.
This event raised money to cover university fees for eleven children for the second semester school that opened in October 2013. By raising this money, Baan Dada can ensure that these children can continue their studies which are so important to their future.
Live Music and Cultural Dancing
Going side by side with the 2012 Cycling for Education event, the Children's Live Music and Cultural Dance fundraising activities were arranged at Koh Phangan. It began on 11th April, 2012 and was a 12-day event organised by Katie and Steve Cumbers. It included live music and cultural dance performances by the children. This event was a great success and all of the children had an amazing time!

C&L's Late Nite Music Club With Guided By Voices
Guided By Voices were a sublime, drunken mess of greatness. I flew to Chicago New Years Eve of 2005 to see their last show ever and it was worth every penny and hour in the air.
Ringleader Robert Pollard has consistently held court as one of rock's last consistently fascinating lyricists, best listened to over a long period to get into the rhythms of his obtuse language. "My Valuable Hunting Knife" has always been a favorite of mine; I interpret it as a tale of an older man who has retreated away from people to the safety, comfort and predictability of a life surrounded by objects and crafts but ultimately finding dissatisfaction and loneliness inescapable. Pollard's a tough nut to crack, and I could be way off. Lyrics after the jump.
What songs have your favorite lyrics?
I want to start a new life
With my valuable hunting knife
She will shine like a new girl
And I want to shout out our love to the world (Hit it!)
Everything I think about I think about
Everything I talk about I talk about
With you
But you don't know what I go through
You don't know
Days, they will turn into nights
But my valuable hunting knife
It will not rust through the tears
And it will not lose its appeal over years (Come on!)
Everything I think about I think about
Everything I talk about I talk about
With you
But you don't know what I go through
You don't know
I'll never know
I'll never know
And then I will run
And then I will. . .
And then I will hide

Cashner struggles, Padres offense fizzles
San Diego's ace gives up season-high four runs in loss to Brewers
MILWAUKEE Contrary to what a handful of starts would have you believe, there will be nights this season when Andrew Cashner falls short of a human bowling pin, when the battery between the potent right-hander and catcher Rene Rivera proves penetrable, when pitches rocket toward the plate only to be redirected with equal force.
Of the nights when the margin for error is vanishingly thin, there already have been a whole bushel. Monday, again without a cover-all offense and this time without his sharpest offerings, Cashner took the sacrificial loss in the Padres' 4-3 defeat at Miller Park.
The top of the seventh could have provided a game-winning surge. Instead, it was rendered the Brewers' great escape. It might have been christened the Padres' great letdown, yet another in this young season of untimely misses.
"We're gonna be playing tight games because we have the pitching," said first baseman Yonder Alonso, who had two of the Padres' seven hits. "It's just that matter of getting one extra hit when it really needs to happen. We definitely feel at fault, but we need to take care of business and move on."
For a moment, Chris Denorfia ignored the prevailing trend, leading off the aforementioned inning with an opposite-field blast, his first home run of the year. The deficit shrank to a single run. Nick Hundley, pinch-hitting for Rivera, followed with a double. Tommy Medica, pinch-hitting for Cashner, reached on an error. Both runners moved up a base on Everth Cabrera's sacrifice bunt. Xavier Nady, pinch-hitting for Will Venable, walked to load the bases.
What ensued was awfully familiar. Seth Smith flied out to shallow left, reducing the Padres' chances to Chase Headley. The third baseman, recently returned to the lineup from a biceps strain, gazed at a strike and swung through another. The third pitch was a second consecutive slider, 81 mph out of the hand of reliever Will Smith.
Headley swung. His bat caught nothing but air.
"More than anything, I'm missing the pitches I'm getting to hit," said Headley, who went 0-for-3.
"When you go through times like this, you've just got to weather the storm. ... To be where we are is a testament to the way we've pitched. It's frustrating, but I think everybody knows it's gonna come. Hopefully sooner than later so you don't go crazy, but there's definitely no panic."
That the Brewers grounded into a double play in the bottom of the seventh -- this after they, too, loaded the bases with one out -- did not assuage the disappointment.
Earlier, it had been applied throughout an atypical third inning, in which Cashner surrendered as many runs as he had in his three previous starts combined. Wily Peralta, Milwaukee's starting pitcher, drilled his second career double. Scooter Gennett tripled for a 1-0 lead. Ryan Braun hammered a sacrifice fly that just missed leaving the park. Aramis Ramirez crushed a pitch of his own, this drive carrying over the fence.
All three scores came directly off Cashner's two-seamer, which, on this night, often missed the corners of the plate.
