The general thrust of Camejo's message is that Davis has abandoned progressives and liberals. Camejo has secured the endorsement of a few prominent Hispanic leaders in the state, and he's going full-bore after that segment of the vote: his campaign tells us he wants to get at least 20 to 30 percent.
He'll spend lots of time in San Francisco, where he'll stump with newly elected Green city supervisor Matt Gonzales. And he's reportedly talked with representatives of the California Teachers Association, whose leaders had a public falling out with Davis.
In 2000, Ralph Nader got 418,000 votes in California. He has stumped for Camejo, and an adviser says he'll do it again before the election.
10. Massachusetts governor
Democratic nominee TBD (primary is September 17) Businessman Mitt Romney (R) Jill Stein (Green) Carla Howell (Libertarian)
Stein, a 52-year-old physician from Lexington, is best known for her environmental advocacy and her work for Ralph Nader's 2000 campaign.
Voters in the Bay State approved a Clean Elections law in 2000, setting up a mechanism to fund candidates who adhered to strict campaign contribution limits.
But Massachusetts House Speaker Tom Finneran, a Democrat, said the state didn't have enough money to fund the program. Earlier this year, the state's top court forced the legislature to sell its own possessions (furniture, etc.), to try to build a cash reserve for qualified candidates.
Stein's campaign looked to be the chief beneficiary, and the resulting publicity and ill will widened the chasm between Massachusetts Greens and Massachusetts Democrats. Stein wound up not getting enough signatures to qualify for the public funding.
Because Republican Mitt Romney is running strongly in this heavily Democratic state, Democrats will need every liberal to turn out in favor of their nominee come election day. But Ralph Nader got 173,000 votes here, and Stein counts on at least half of them to vote for her. Republican Paul Cellucci beat Democrat Scott Harshbarger for governor by just 65,000 votes in 1998.
Romney, meanwhile, will most likely lose votes to Carla Howell, an articulate Libertarian who received 12 percent of the statewide vote against Senator Ted Kennedy in 2000 (though Republicans did not field a credible challenger to Kennedy that year, so Howell likely picked up some GOP votes). Howell also is leading the statewide campaign for a ballot imitative to repeal the state income tax, and her campaign expects to be able to run a series of television ads in the waning days.
Depending on which Democrat secures the nomination and how they run against Romney, either one of these third-party candidates could tip the race.
11. Illinois governor
Congressman Rod Blagojevich (D) Attorney General Jim Ryan (R) Cal Skinner (Libertarian) Marisellis Brown (Independent)
A lesson for the two major parties: if you want the press to ignore a third-party candidate, don't do anything to draw attention to that candidate.
Take the case of the Libertarian Skinner: Republicans tried to keep him off the ballot by challenging his signatures. Elections officials found that Skinner's petitions for candidacy was indeed valid. Republicans said that a bout of fraud in 1998 provoked their contest. The press reported the snafu, and Skinner's campaign got a bump.

Dr. Phillip Bustrum, professor of Intercultural Studies at Cornerstone University, spent three weeks this summer in Chennai, India, teaching at the Hindustan Bible Institute.
Bustrum enjoys teaching overseas, but also uses his work to open doors to locations where CU students can make a difference.
"Cornerstone has wonderful opportunities for students to do study abroad," said Bustrum, who would like to see opportunities for study abroad to continually expand into places with the greatest need of the gospel.
"That is my heart and passion," he said. "I want to go to areas where it is more strategically viable to teach the gospel, places where people are in bondage because of the lack of understanding of Christ."
While there, Bustrum taught graduate students in two courses, Missions and Diversity and Educational Research Methods, and gave a graduation address to 50 graduates of the school. He was also invited to speak at a multi-lingual pastor's conference attended by more than 1,000 pastors from various parts of India.
Many of the pastors and students in Bustrum's class there were the only believers in their families and came from strictly Hindu backgrounds.
"These people are highly committed to Christ," he said. "I spoke with students who left their family and were ostracized, often kicked out with no support. And, yet, they had the willingness to follow Christ."
He hopes to bring students back with him to experience the culture and commitment to Christ.
"My hope and dream would be that I could return with students so they can learn and grow in the same place," Bustrum said. "It's not only a great opportunity to learn about culture, religion and belief systems but also to experience what God is doing in another place."

Matchup: Montreal Canadiens vs. Ottawa Senators
Date/Time: May 7th, 7:00 PM ET
Television: CNBC
NHL Betting Odds from BetOnline Sportsbook
Moneyline: Ottawa -140
Total: 5
With a 2-1 series lead in tote, the Ottawa Senators look to push the Montreal Canadiens to the brink of elimination on Tuesday night at Scotia Bank Place for NHL betting action in what could be a brutal game.
Montreal has to get its composure back, and in a hurry if it is going to have any chance to get back into this series. The club lost its mind, starting an all-out brawl in the third period of play on Sunday night. The team got beaten in the majority of the fights on the ice, and the rest of the game, the team just kept taking shoddy penalties and making aggressive moves that there is no place for in hockey. Even worse, the Habs were visibly shaken when Ottawa called timeout with just 18 seconds left in the game, and you can bet that the team is going to try to get some retribution in this one. It's not about dropping the gloves or making the big time hit, though. It's about scoring more goals than the other guys and leveling this series at two games apiece, and that's something that we aren't sure that Montreal really has the ability to do. LW Max Pacioretty and D PK Subban, arguably the top two players on the club were seen fighting with each other on the bench on Sunday, and that isn't going to make matters any better for the team either.
The Senators really have this series by the throat, and they aren't going to want to let it go. They were definitively the better of the two teams on Sunday night, winning 6-1, and they have every opportunity possible here to try to essentially finish this one off. Lost in all of the mess from the 236 penalty minutes on Sunday was the fact that G Craig Anderson played himself a darn good game. Before all of the carnage broke out with melees all over the ice, Anderson stuffed up C Brian Gionta on a breakaway in a game that, at the time was competitive at 3-1. It was the biggest save of the series for sure, and it effectively ended the game. C Jean-Gabriel Pageau made a name for himself the last time on the ice, as he scored a hat trick as a rookie for his first three playoff goals, and he and his mates are going to try to finish this one off as quickly as possible.
We really think that Montreal is going to pull off some stupidity in this game, and it is going to ultimately send it down the tubes. Anderson has really outplayed G Carey Price, and as the Senators have already proven, they aren't going to back down from the Northeast Division champs. The Sens should win this game and head back to French Canada up 3-1.
Montreal Canadiens @ Ottawa Senators Pick: Ottawa Senators -140

Frank Sinton | February 11, 2014 | Comments
As streaming video to TVs moves closer to mainstream adoption, it's time that marketers turn their attention to how to monetize the industry, with subscription, a la carte, and advertising.
Streaming video to TVs has clearly become a viable way to distribute and access content. While it has not yet reached mainstream adoption, it's certainly moving in that direction...particularly given the huge push behind smart TVs at this year's Consumer Electronics Show (CES). So with the technology making streaming video possible largely settled (and amid today's ramp-up in marketing efforts), we must now turn our attention to the third leg of the stool holding all this up - monetization.
Like any other kind of content, there are three ways to monetize streaming video delivered to smart TVs: subscription, a la carte (aka on-demand), and advertising. And all have an impact on consumer adoption. However, to date, we've primarily only seen mostly the first two. Netflix and Hulu Plus are subscription services. Xbox Video and iTunes Video are a la carte services. It's time to layer in more ad-supported models to bring this activity mainstream.
Here's why: Only the most loyal and active user will take the subscription route. These are viewers who "get it." They understand the value of streaming video. They've converted to the model. Many of them are cord-cutters. But they're just a fraction of the mass market. Netflix reported huge subscriber gains for the fourth quarter last year, with 33.4 million. That's fantastic, but more than 100 million are still paying for either cable or satellite TV (many of whom are also Netflix subscribers).
In contrast, there are the a la carte users...those who cherry-pick the individual shows and movies they want at the moment and pay a one-off rental fee. These viewers are more interested in paying for just the content they want, rather than experiment with something new.
Both models are seeing increasing revenues. According to the Digital Entertainment Group, U.S. streaming subscription revenues increased more than 30 percent in 2013 to $3.1 billion, while video-on-demand (VOD) revenue increased 5 percent to $2.1 billion. And according to an ABI Research report, subscription and on-demand streaming activity combined contributed to the worldwide over-the-top content (OTT) market reaching $11 billion last year.
Adding an advertising model to this mix can play a huge role in driving this figure upward, both by establishing an additional revenue stream and by serving as a path to new users. But there's also a user acquisition play here. A free, ad-supported service tier would allow new customers who are currently unsure of the OTT model to try it out on a limited basis. Without the immediate upfront barrier of a monthly fee, these users can experiment with streaming video with zero commitment on their end.
Just look at the music space. That's an industry moving toward a streaming consumption model as well. Streaming services like Spotify have a free, ad-supported tier that lets users listen to music with ads. The pitch to converting free users to a paid subscription is 1) the promise of no ads, and 2) added features. Spotify, for instance, limits the functionality of its service on mobile phones, requiring a paid subscription to get the full experience.
There's no reason the same strategy can't apply to streaming video on TV. Consumers are accustomed to ads on radio between their music choices, and they're just as familiar with ads on TV during programming. Users willing to pay today are already doing so, so there's little risk involved with adding an ad-supported free tier in hopes of drawing more users into the mix.

From the Publisher
"Real Country is by far the best book on Texas country music and working-class culture since Manuel Peña's The Texas-Mexican Conjunto: History of a Working-Class Music was published in 1985. As opened to us by Aaron A. Fox, the working-class world of Lockhart, Texas, is complex and richly textured, and country music is its most characteristic and expressive voice. Grounded both in the most sophisticated recent scholarship and in Fox's longtime involvement as performer and observer, Real Country extends to the music the full measure of respect it deserves. In so doing, it carries country music scholarship to a new level that will challenge and guide all subsequent commentators."—David E. Whisnant, author of Rascally Signs in Sacred Places and All That Is Native and Fine
"Aaron A. Fox's Real Country gets to the heart and drama that fuels the cigarette smoke, music, talk, and beer of a honky tonk Saturday night."—Peter Wolf, musician
"Aaron A. Fox's Real Country is a powerful and moving study of Texas working class culture (including an articulate defense of the now heavily criticized notion of 'culture' itself). Combining the tools of linguistic anthropology, ethnomusicology, and sensitive ethnography, Fox performs a series of brilliant interpretations of 'vocal practices'—country music and all kinds of talk, mostly in bars—as these actively shape personal subjectivities and interpersonal relationships. The chapter on 'The Fool in the Mirror' alone is worth the price of the book."—Sherry B. Ortner, author of New Jersey Dreaming: Capital, Culture, and the Class of '58

WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: It is with great disappointment that I call on my colleague, Representative Anthony Weiner, to resign. The behavior he has exhibited is indefensible, and Representative Weiner's continued service in Congress is untenable. This sordid affair has become an unacceptable distraction for Representative Weiner, his family, his constituents, and the House. And for the good of all, he should step aside and address those things that should be most important, his and his family's well-being.
KARL: Democratic leaders expect that Weiner will ultimately get that message and resign, but no indication he's doing it yet. And, Christiane, there is nothing they can do to force him out short of a vote of the full House to expel him. And at this point, nobody expects that to happen.
AMANPOUR: Jon, thank you so much.
And Congressman Weiner, of course, has deep roots in the Democratic Party. He's married to Hillary Clinton's top aide and was widely expected to be the next mayor of New York. Instead, he's paralyzed his party at a crucial moment.
So let's bring in our roundtable now, George Will, Democratic strategist Donna Brazile, who's also vice chair of the Democratic National Committee, Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan, who served as Ronald Reagan's wordsmith-in-chief, and ABC's senior White House correspondent Jake Tapper.
Thank you all for being here. George, is it over for Weiner? I mean, let's cut to the chase.
WILL: No. But with absolute predictability, this being a modern enlightened age, we've arrived at the medicalization of this crisis, says I'm going in for treatment. For what, no one can say. But we also reach a point these days where they say, "I didn't do it. My disease made me do it." So presumably...
AMANPOUR: But interesting you say no.
WILL: Well, his next move would be to say that I cannot -- because I have a disease, I cannot be expelled because that would violate the Americans with Disabilities Act. There are lots of...
WILL: There are lots of -- when a political obsessive such as this faces expulsion from politics, it's not the loss of a job, it's the loss of identity. It's personal annihilation. He's going to dig in.
AMANPOUR: Well, Jake, you've been obviously covering it closely, and you mentioned, of course, that Nancy Pelosi has never done this to a fellow Democrat. So can he hang on?
TAPPER: He can, legally, as George says.
AMANPOUR: Legally, yes.
TAPPER: You have to be -- you have to be expelled. And his case to make is he has not done anything to violate the law, at least not that we know about as of right now.
As Jon mentioned, Pelosi and other Democratic leaders, including Steve Israel, who's a good friend of his, and also congressman from New York, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, all week have been pushing him, "You have to step down, you have to resign. We can't go into a third week with this dominating the headlines. We want to talk about the Republicans' Medicare plan. We want to talk about the economy."
And Friday morning, Weiner told Pelosi that he was checking into treatment, and she's like, "We're going to have to go public now. You're really not getting the message."

China to start regular patrols from island in South China Sea
Published on Jan 21, 2014 3:00 PM
BEIJING (REUTERS) - China will base a 5,000-tonne civilian patrol ship on one of the main islands it controls in the disputed South China Sea and begin regular patrols, an official newspaper said on Tuesday, a move likely to add fuel to territorial disputes with neighbours.
The China Ocean News, published by the State Oceanic Administration, said the ship would be based on Woody Island, which China calls Sansha city, on the Paracel Islands.
China will "gradually establish a regular patrol system on Sansha city to jointly protect the country's maritime interests", the report added. It will continue to build infrastructure on the island as well as a "joint platform for sharing maritime security data", it said.
China is in an increasingly angry dispute with its neighbours over claims to parts of the potentially oil and gas-rich South China Sea. China lays claim to almost the whole of the sea, which is criss-crossed by crucial shipping lanes.

While almost everyone in D.C. was fawning over Hillary Clinton's stint as secretary of state, I was trying to figure out exactly what she accomplished.
I would challenge anyone to name four notable or good things, an average of one a year, she accomplished as secretary. How about three? Two? How about one?
However, I do know of one thing she accomplished: She met all the world leaders to build support to be the next president. So, she did accomplish a Clinton goal, which was the point all along.
In my opinion, the Clintons never did anything that was not meant to further their own personal goals or ambitions, either of becoming more wealthy or, more importantly, regaining and holding on to power.
She did cover a lot of miles and spent an ungodly amount of money; she was not exactly flying coach.
So, we have once again footed a huge bill for the Clintons to further their personal ambitions; nothing new there.
Now there is Benghazi, but don't expect any buck stopping with her. The Clintons are masters at dodging blame and accepting praise. Bill Clinton did finally get caught with undeniable evidence; however, like that old reprobate Teddy Kennedy, he has since turned public opinion around, despite his being guilty of lying under oath, which is perjury for us commoners, and betraying the public trust.
Some things never change.

McCain fundraiser linked to Colombian terrorist group.
"McCain fundraiser linked to Colombian terrorist group."
One of John McCain's biggest fundraisers "oversaw the payment of roughly $1.7 million to a Colombian paramilitary group that is today designated a terrorist organization by the United States." HuffPost reports that Carl Lindner, the former CEO of Chiquita Brands, "paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (known by the Spanish acronym AUC)," which is described by George Washington University's National Security Archive as an 'illegal right-wing anti-guerrilla group tied to many of the country's most notorious civilian massacres.'"

The Balearic Islands region
Ibiza is blessed with incredible beaches, a rich history and some of the worlds biggest and best nightclubs - but it also has so much more to offer the visitor.
There are small inland villages where you can experience the traditional side of Ibiza. There are several hippy markets around the island which are ideal for picking up homemade and unique souveniers. The dining options on the island are overwhelming - whether you are after a characteristic and quaint Spanish tapas place or a fine-dining experience with international cuisine, such as Sushi, Italian or thai, there is something to suit every taste and budget.
For a fantastic day out, take a boat across to the neighbouring island of Formentera and you will soon discover why it has some of the highest rated beaches in the world.
Another must do is wandering up to the lookout above Dalt Vila in Ibiza Town, for incredible views across the north and south of the island.
Also on Ibiza are excellent walking and hiking trails, great diving and snorkeling opportunities, water sports, horse riding, golf, tennis, cycling trails and much much more.
With a fantastic climate, including mostly sunny days through April to the end of October, you can take your pick when to visit. The mid-summer months of July and August can get very hot and the nights in May and October can have a slight chill, however this villa has air-conditioning and heating throughout, so you will be perfectly comfortable.
Ibiza Town
This villa is located within walking distance to the shops of Sant Jordi, where you will find the nearest supermarket, bank, chemist, bakery and a few other speciality shops. There is also another large Mercadona supermarket within walking distance of the villa which will sell all the supplies you should need for your holiday.
The closest beach to the villa is, Playa den Bossa, Ibiza's longest stretch of sandy beach and less than five minutes drive away. This is also where the closest nightlife hub is, including some of Ibiza's most famous nightclubs including Space Ibiza and Ushuaia.
Ibiza Town is also just five minutes drive away and here you will find plenty of dining options, as well as excellent bars and clubs, great boutique shopping and the trendy Ibiza Marina Botafoch area.
We always recommend car hire when visiting Ibiza (which we can help you organise if you wish) however you can easily stay at this villa without hiring a car. There is a bus station within walking distance from the villa with regular buses into Ibiza Town and catching a taxi to Ibiza Town should cost you no more than 10 euros.

"Great Villa in the perfect location"
Villa was amazing- had everything we could have needed. Easily accessible from the airport and close to everything. We were even able to walk home from the bar at the end of the night.
The pool was great and then entire property was very clean.
Michele was extremely helpful leading into the trip, assisting with all our questions about the property as well as concierge services for activities on the island.

"Truly Amazing & Beautiful Villa - Excellent Location"
This is a truly, genuinely amazing villa.
The owner is very helpful, with contact via email prior to arrival, all questions were answered. Check-in times were fexible and they gave good instructions on how to find the villa (it is not too difficut to find and is quite straightforward when you find it once). I paid half of the cost into their bank account on booking, and the remaining in cash on arrival.
Check-in / Check-out
The checkin/out times were flexible to suite our flight times which was very useful. All went smoothly, no issues getting deposit back (we lost a key and had to pay 50 euros which was fair enough).
10 min walk to centre of San Jordi - supermarket, restautants and bars. It is in quet residential area close to surrounding counryside. 5 mins drive to airport, Ibiza town or Playa den Bossa. The walk to Playa den bossa is abount 30 mins and over an hour into Ibiza Town. There is always lots of parking so taking a car is alsoan optio. Local taxis were a bit hit & miss, somethimes they would come when called, some times there would be long delays or no taxis sent at all. At busy times, you may be better off walking to the taxi rank in San Jordi. The next door neighbours are residents so we were asked to not makle too much noise (ie. loud music) after midnight - not a problem for us as we were out until the mornings anyway.
The villa was amazing, could not be faulted. Every room was spotlessly clean and the furnature was beautiful. The villa sleeps eight, although there is plenty of room to spreadout - the large living room could be used as an additonal bedroom as the house is air-conditioned throughout. There are also large terraces with views to Ibiza Town and across the hills. The master bedroom was huge (could easly fit an additonal double bed in this room) and has a jacuzzi bath. There is a safe in teh basement and a large laundry room with exercise bike. There is no air-con in the room with 2 single beds - although this is in the basement and so cooler than the other rooms anyway, still some people may still find it too warm down there. There are mosquitoes about so either take repellant and keep the window open for air, or just sleep in the living room with the air con on...There is a coffeee machine and all the kitchen essentials, including dishwasher! The outdoor BBQ was ace to use, no indoor cooking was needed really! Almost everything has been thought of in this villa, the garden and pool were all imaculate and very well kept. There is also a tank that collects rain water and uses a water filter so this is drinkable - this cut down on trips to the shop!
The one problem we had was with the music system - there is only an old portable stereo which we could not connect our mp3 players to as the only connection was usb. Also, we could not connect to the TV with our audio cables. So - either take cd's or make sure you have the right connectors. I think, for the price of this villa, a better stereo would be expected perhaps with ipod/ipad docks or connectors. Also, wifi is slow, it is ok for general surfing but dont expect to stream videos.

Lovely to hear your comments about Villa Ibiza and we are so pleased you enjoyed yourselves.
I am sorry to hear that the pool lights were not working whilst you were here on holiday. Whilst we did call a technican, it is such in the summer period that the companies can be very busy and as a result we are not always able to state a date/time for things to be fixed.
Check out can only be at 10.00am as we have clients checking in the villa from 15.00. We have to ensure that the villa is cleaned during the short turnaround.
Villa Ibiza is extremely popular and we are pleased that you were impressed with the high standards that we keep it to.
We welcome you and the rest of your party back to Ibiza and our villa in the future.

"Perfect in every way"
When i was looking to book my holiday this was the first villa that i saw and even though we looked at others we always came back to this one.
Villa is ideally situated as only 10 minutes away from airport.
Villa was perfect for us all as we were 8 adults and there was plenty of room for us all.
Shops and restaurants close by, so car is not essential.
Would definitely recommend this villa, and would go back again.
Letting agents very polite and helpful as were the couple that maintain the property.

Over the last few years a great deal of information has been uncovered about how the tobacco companies knowingly engineered their cigarettes to become more addictive, usually by adding chemicals to cigarettes that increase the addictiveness of nicotine and keep smokers hooked.
What if the food industry was doing the same thing?
According to David Kessler, MD, that's exactly what food manufacturers have been doing for years, and that's at least partially responsible for the epidemic of overeating and obesity we're now witnessing.
Kessler, the former Commissioner of the FDA, has written a terrific and compelling book called " The End of Overeating". The book makes several arguments:
Now there's a lot more to the book than that, and I strongly recommend that you read it. But a few points that Kessler makes are worth mentioning here.
Kessler thinks that to overcome the addictions to certain "trigger" foods, it may be best to eliminate them completely – at least for a while. This is exactly what we do on the first two weeks of Diet Boot Camp and here's why: When you're addicted to something (cigarettes, alcohol, sugar, grains)- the idea of "everything in moderation" is useless. An alcoholic can't drink in moderation, a person with an allergy to peanuts can't eat peanuts in moderation, and those of us who are addicted to lethal combinations of sugar and fat might have to treat the foods that contain those combinations in the same way- abstinence!
Kessler also believes, however, that it's very difficult to stay on an eating plan that completely eliminates foods you're in love with. He suggests that you (very carefully) begin to add back certain foods you really love, but with a renewed consciousness about their dangers and a different attitude about portions. (This is what we do after the first two weeks in Diet Boot Camp.)
I think " The End of Overeating" is an important contribution to the literature about appetite, brain chemistry and obesity. After reading it, I find myself thinking a lot more about what I'm eating, why I'm eating it and how much of it I'm consuming. All of a sudden cravings aren't seen as just compulsions to be obeyed, but as the result of a carefully engineered plan on the part of food manufacturers to keep me "hooked".
Read this book and you're unlikely to ever look at a chocolate chip cookie in quite the same way as you did before reading it.

Afghanistan's presidential campaign to begin
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — The posters are printed. The rallies are organized. A televised debate is planned.
Campaign season for Afghanistan's presidential election kicks off Sunday, and the stakes are high for the 11 candidates vying to succeed President Hamid Karzai and oversee the final chapter in a NATO-led combat mission.
The April 5 vote is a pivotal moment in Afghanistan's history, its outcome seen as make-or-break for the country's future and key to the level of foreign involvement here after nearly 13 years of war. Billions of dollars in funds are tied to the government's holding a free and fair election — the first independent vote organized by Afghanistan without direct foreign assistance.
Amid a surge in violence from the Taliban ahead of the NATO combat troop withdrawal at the end of the year, the poll also will be a crucial test of whether Afghanistan can ensure a stable transition. And the West will be watching the vote as means of gauging the success of its efforts to foster democracy and bolster security over the past 12 years.
"If the result is so contested that the new government lacks all legitimacy and authority, if the election is so manifestly rigged and corrupt that it destroys the willingness of the U.S. even more than is happening already to go on funding Afghanistan, then indeed you can see the setup that we have created going to pieces," said Anatol Lieven, a professor in the War Studies Department at King's College in Britain.
A withdrawal of U.S. funding and support would put the future president in a compromised position, struggling to hold together the armed forces while staving off an emboldened Taliban.
Ziaulhaq Amarkhil, chief electoral officer for the Independent Election Commission, noted the "huge difference" between the coming vote and the previous two presidential elections, in 2009 and 2004: Only Afghans will oversee this one.
"This is a very important election, very crucial election because this is the first time from an elected president we are going to go to another elected president," he told The Associated Press. "We are fully ready — logistically, operationally as well as from the capacity side, the budget side, the timing side."
The challenges facing the election apparatus are many: The 2009 election was severely marred by allegations of vote-rigging. Safety and security are major concerns, with the Taliban expected to ratchet up their attacks to sow chaos and disrupt the vote.
Sediq Sediqi, spokesman for Afghanistan's Interior Ministry, stressed that Afghan Security Forces are "well prepared," but in a sign of the risks remaining, two campaigners were killed on the eve of the election.
Then there is the challenge posed by Karzai's mercurial behavior and the risk that a deteriorating security situation could be used to justify postponing the vote.
Karzai has essentially run Afghanistan since the American-led invasion in 2001 drove the Taliban from power. While he is constitutionally barred from seeking a third consecutive term, his presence alone will complicate the run-up to the election.

Turner, you'll recall, was ousted by fellow Republican Ronda Storms in the August primary election after serving 16 years in the position. It was the public's way of showing disgust with his behavior, after it was revealed that he had shared "lurid" texts and emails with a former girlfriend who just happened to be the office's human resources director (including exchanges after he was married). Turner said because all the communications between himself and Carolyn Filippone were done off company time and company equipment it didn't reflect on his job performance, but the GOP electorate didn't agree.
At Wednesday afternoon's candidates forum between Storms, Democrat Bob Henriquez, and Independent candidate James DeMio at the Tampa Club, only state Sen. Storms mentioned Turner, and she did so freely, saying she wants to clean up the office.
"You might think that's what caused me to run, but that's not it," she told the crowd consisting of members of the Kiwanis Club of Tampa and the Hillsborough County League of Women Voters about Turner's fall from grace. "The headlines explained to me what I'd already known."
She added that she had worked with "multiple constituents" who have had bad experiences with Turner regarding their property appraisals.
She told the story of how the owners of the Ruskin Drive-In Theatre were threatened by an assessment that went from $174,217 to $814,425 in one year, causing a public backlash after the then St. Petersburg Times reported on it. She also mentioned how Turner pulled the Homestead Exemption of seven separate surviving widows and widowers for more than a year before a subsequent public outcry killed that proposal (both items were mentioned in a campaign mailer she used against Turner in the primary).endorsements (as he made sure to mention during the forum), but some analysts say he remains the underdog, not having ran for public office since 2004. He admitted that it's doubtful he'd be running for the office if Turner didn't have those issues, but he has refrained from speaking about him at all in his campaign.
Henriquez and Storms have said virtually nothing critical about each since they entered the race in late spring, and that sense of bonhomie continued during today's debate.
The three candidates were asked their take on all of the constitutional amendments that deal with property taxes in some fashion or another (four are on the ballot), specifically Amendment 4. Amendment 4 would reduce property taxes for some homeowners, though officials in local government in Florida fear its passage would further reduce their revenues. But advertised as providing more potential tax relief for homeowners, and it's no surprise that all three candidates support the measure.
As part of the GOP-led Legislature in 2011, Storms voted to put all 11 amendments on this year's ballot, and said she strongly stood behind every one of them.
Henriquez said he has concerns about changing the state Constitution in such a "hodge-podge" fashion, but supported all of the measures regarding property taxes.
DeMio explained why he supported Amendment Four, "Being in real estate, buyers that I've been working with looking at a retail strip or an apartment building or small office. They don't like seeing variables or expenses coming at them so I think that would add an incentive for people to make a move off the fence buying, which would have a ripple effect on our economy."
On several occasions, DeMio boasted that he was the only candidate with 20 years of real estate experience. After the forum, one observer sitting next to CL questioned why such a position should be an elected one, saying that in his opinion none of the candidates' credentials were sufficient for the role.
Henriquez' key line was that all of the taxpayers of the county "own the office," and that they were making a "hiring decision."
"It really shouldn't be a political office, " he said. "Your assessments are not Democratic assessments or Republican assessments. They're just fair and just, or not."
Sen. Storms has been a traditional nemesis for Hillsborough Democrats going back to her days on the County Commission (she was elected to the state Senate in 2006). But she's run a disciplined race so far, doing nothing to antagonize liberals or the media.
She did take exception to the charge made by a member of the audience that she could be considered a "career politician," calling herself a career public servant, and emphasizing that life was not that grandiose for herself until she was elected to county commission in 1998.
"I started off as a high school English teacher making $14,000 a year, by the way," she said.
Calling herself a proven reformer, she said she refused her salary every year while serving in the Legislature and would do the same as property appraiser. She later clarified to CL that she meant to say that she had "cut" her salary in Tallahassee, and would do the same if elected (a state legislator makes $29,000 a year — the property appraiser more than $150,000).
There is a fourth candidate in the race, Independent Rob Townsend, who made a run for the office in 2008. He did not appear at Wednesday's forum.

As we have previously reported, the 2010 Health Care Reform Act imposed new, specific requirements for hospitals to maintain their Section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. On June 22, 2012, the Treasury Department released proposed regulations interpreting and implementing certain of these requirements. Specifically, the proposed regulations provide guidance on the following requirements of Section 501(r): required financial assistance policies (including how they are to be made "widely available"); required emergency care policies; amounts that may be charged to patients eligible for financial assistance; and the requirement that hospitals make reasonable efforts to determine whether individuals are eligible for financial assistance before initiating extraordinary collection actions against such individuals. The statutory requirements went into effect at the time of enactment but the proposed rules state that the rules specified in the regulations will be effective only when final regulations are published. We will provide a summary of these proposed rules shortly.

The high school track and field season is still young, but several local high school track and field athletes have already made the state take notice.
Ridgeview senior Ivan Gonzalez ran a 1:52.02 in the 800-meter race at the Mount Carmel Invitational in San Diego on Saturday. That time briefly ranked first in the nation this year until Corona-Santiago's Brett Moulton ran a 1:51.78 to push Gonzalez to No. 2 later Saturday night at the adidas Distance Meet of Champions in Azusa.
Gonzalez and Moulton will run against each other for the first time this season at the Arcadia Invitational on April 6.
Also in Azusa on Saturday, Stockdale junior Blake Haney took over the state lead in the 1,600 meters, winning the race in 4:12.36. Haney, who finished third in the 1,600 at the state championships a year ago, ranks No. 4 nationally in the event in this young season.
Two horizontal jumpers from Bakersfield High also joined the ranks of the state's elite at the California Relays in Norwalk: Scotty Newton, a junior who jumped 49 feet in the triple jump at last year's Central Section championships, hit 47-11 in the TJ, good for second in the state this season. Bryce Huggins, a sophomore, is fourth in the state in the long jump after a 23-1 at the same meet.
Earlier this month, Liberty sophomore Morganne Hill ran a 43.43 in the 300-meter hurdles, good for third in the state. Stockdale senior Kiare Tanner ranks fourth in the girls triple jump at 36-11.
All of these local standouts could be featured in the annual Patriot Games meet at Liberty, which allows only the top 16 locals in each event to compete. This year's Patriot Games are April 19.
USA Basketball has selected Garces freshman C.J. West to try out for its U16 national girls team, May 23-27 in Colorado Springs.
Thirty high school players around the country were selected for tryouts; 12 will be selected for the U16 team, which will compete in the FIBA Americas U16 Championship in hopes of qualifying for the FIBA U17 World Championship next year.
West, a 6-foot-2 freshman, averaged 16.2 points and 15.9 rebounds per game for the Rams, who finished 27-4 and reached the Central Section Division II championship game.
Frontier's softball team, ranked No. 8 nationally in MaxPreps' Xcellent 25, lost its first game of the season in this week's Fresno Easter Classic, 4-3 to Clovis.
The Titans, who had won their first three games of the tournament and the first 16 of the season, trailed the Cougars 4-1 before rallying for two runs in the sixth inning. But they fell short in the game and so were eliminated from the tournament before the semifinals. They still lead the Southwest Yosemite League at 3-0.
Former Liberty football player Jason Diffee has committed to play for Central Washington, a Division II program, as an offensive lineman and long snapper.
Diffee started on Liberty's offensive line in 2010 and 2011 and attended College of the Sequoias last season.

Orlando's back.
After an on-air ruckus and then a weeklong hiatus, the star of WLLD-FM Wild 98.7's Orlando and the Freak Show returns to his 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. time slot Thursday.
Last Monday, March 31, listeners heard Orlando Davis being yanked from the air after a dispute over upgrading studio equipment led to Davis nearly revealing the home telephone number of CBS Radio's top executive in Tampa, Charlie Ochs. Before the plugged was pulled, Davis encouraged fans to logon to wild987.fm/fighttheman, where photos contrast Wild's studio with those of two other local CBS stations, oldies WRBQ-FM 104.7 and country WQYK-FM 99.5. Davis and Ochs said they agreed that Davis needed a cooling-off period, so the deejay has spent the past week in Vegas, L.A. and Daytona Beach with his wife while his Freak Show sidekicks ran the show in his absence.
A day after the supposed dustup, Wild staffer DJ Trauma filled in by spinning tunes and awkwardly reading the news. This, coupled with the fact that it was April 1, made the incident look suspiciously like an April Fool's Day publicity stunt.
"It wasn't a prank," Davis, 36, told tbt*. "If it was, it was a prank on everybody. It was just kind of a culmination of a whole bunch of things that happened, and it kind of unfolded on the air."
While Davis was away, baffled listeners flooded the station with calls and e-mails. He said even got a call from his competitor, Bubba the Love Sponge, who asked, "Man, you crazy?" Carlos Diaz, Vegas correspondent for the gossip show Extra and daily rumormonger for the Freak Show, also received e-mails, Davis said, leading Davis to appear on Extra last week to assure fans that he'd soon return to the airwaves.
Davis said it hadn't occurred to him that his on-air grievances could be construed as a joke until listeners called to ask if he was pulling their leg.
"And then we looked around the room like, 'Tomorrow is April 1,'" he said.
Although Davis refused to elaborate on hoaxes Wild has pulled in the past, the station been known to fool its listeners. In fact, Wild began as a prank, with two fictional characters taking over 98.7 to transition it to a hip-hop format. Last year, DJ Alli That Girl staged a spurious quest to determine the paternity of her unborn daughter.
As for Davis' request for new studio equipment, he said the issue is "kind of resolved." Station managers have approved some upgrades, and others are in the works.
"I wouldn't urge anybody to barricade themselves in their cubicle or anything, but this seemed to work out this time," he said.
According to Davis, from now on the Freak Show will be business as usual.
"It's the same show. Nothing changes," Davis said. "We still do everything that we were doing before I left. I just went on vacation."
