Sacramento, Calif.
Released On: June 29, 2010
The Bureau of Reclamation announces the availability for public review and comment of the Draft Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact for the proposed implementation of a 10-year program to remove accumulated sediment and vegetation at the Los Banos Detention Dam.
The dam is a flood control facility that protects the San Luis Canal, the city of Los Banos, and surrounding farmland from flood damage by runoff from the Los Banos Creek watershed. The program would improve water flow downstream from the dam. It also would improve the ability to monitor drainage from the toe drain, allow the California Department of Water Resources to detect problems with the dam, and prevent both loss of access and unsafe access conditions for the recreation area at the Los Banos Reservoir.
The Draft Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact (EA/FONSI) were prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act and are available online. If you encounter problems accessing the documents online, please call 916-978-5100 or e-mail email@example.com.
Please send written comments to Shauna McDonald, Bureau of Reclamation, 1243 N Street, Fresno, CA 93721, by Friday, July 30, 2010. Comments may also be faxed to Ms. McDonald at 559-487-5397 or e-mailed to email@example.com.
For additional information or to request a copy of the Draft EA/FONSI, please contact Ms. McDonald at 559-487-5202 (TTY 559-487-5933). Copies of the draft documents may also be viewed at Reclamation's Fresno office at the above address.

Google Cars Drive Themselves, in Traffic
Posted on October 14, 2010 by saya
No body would give himself or herself up to the autonomous cars without struggle, but at least the latest news from Google can make us think twice before we refuse to have a try. According to Google, seven test cars have driven 1,000 miles without human intervention and more than 140,000 miles with only occasional human control. And the Google cars seldom come into accidents except one car that was rear-ended while stopped at a traffic light.
For more information, please check out the link here or the video after the jump.

Jedediah Smith
Mountain Man ... Desert Man
Jedediah Smith is probably the most famous of all "Mountain Men" -- those fur-clad, grizzled individuals who were first to explore the American West in search of pelts and adventure. He was the first American (after the Astorians) to cross west over the Continental Divide, rediscovering South Pass, and the first American to traverse California's rugged Sierra Nevada Mountains. He was also first to open the coastal trade route from California to Fort Vancouver on the Columbia River.
But few realized that among his greatest exploits were Jedediah Smith's trail-blazing expeditions across the deserts of the American West. In fact, Jedediah was the first American to enter California overland from the east (across the forbidding Mojave Desert) and the first to cross the enormous Great Basin Desert and return east, overland from California.
Jedediah Smith was born June 24, 1798, at Bainbridge, New York. While still in his teens, Jedediah joined a fur-trading expedition to the Rocky Mountains, becoming one of the original "Ashley Men," trappers under the command of William Ashley. He continued in the Rocky Mountain fur trade for more than a decade.
Jedediah and his party of trappers spent the winter of 1823-24 with a band of Crow Indians who told him how to reach Utah's Green River. In mid-March 1824, his company rediscovered the South Pass -- a passage to the Northwest through present-day Wyoming -- and descended into the Green River area for the spring hunt.
In July 1825, Jedediah attended the first Mountain Man Rendezvous at Henry's Fork then accompanied William Ashley back to St. Louis with the season's bounty of furs. En route downriver, Ashley took Jedediah as partner to replace the retiring Andrew Henry.
In the spring of 1826, Jedediah went ahead of the company's westbound pack train to arrange for that year's Mountain Man Rendezvous, to be held in Cache Valley. That August, he led 17 men to appraise the trapping potential of the region south and west of the Great Salt Lake.
This expedition took him along the route of present-day Interstate 15, the entire length of Utah, to the Virgin River and its eventual confluence with the Colorado River. He followed the Colorado south to the villages of Mojave Indians, then turned his band westward across the Mojave Desert. When he and his band arrived at San Gabriel Mission near present-day Los Angeles, they became the first Americans to cross overland to California, entering from the east.
Blocked by the suspicious Mexican governor of California, Jedediah changed his plans to explore Oregon and journeyed to the American River near Sacramento instead. In the spring of 1827, he left his party on the Stanislaus River, and taking two trappers, traversed the Sierra Nevada Mountains over Border Ruffian Pass. He then crossed the Great Basin Desert through Nevada, roughly following the route of present-day US Highway 6.
His band reached the Utah-Nevada border near present Grandy, Utah, continued on to Skull Valley and reached the south tip of the Great Salt Lake two days later. By the time they arrived at the 1827 Mountain Man Rendezvous at present-day Laketown, they had become the first Americans to return from California by an overland route.
Later in 1827 Jedediah, with 18 men, retraced his steps from Great Salt Lake to southern California. But this time, Mojave Indians attacked his party while crossing the Colorado River, killing 10 men and capturing all the horses. The remainder made their way to California and into the clutches of Mexican officials waiting to incarcerate them.
Legal issues finally resolved, his band spent the winter of 1827-28 in the San Francisco Bay area. In the spring of 1828, after traveling north up the coast to Oregon, their encampment was attacked by Kelawatset Indians near Smith's Fork on the Umpqua River. The four survivors of the attack, including Smith, finally reached Canada's Fort Vancouver in mid-August 1828, where they spent the following winter.
In March of 1829, Jedediah journeyed east, arriving in August at Pierre's Hole, site of that year's Mountain Man Rendezvous. At the following year's 1830 Rendezvous on the Wind River, Jedediah and his two partners sold their trapping interests to the Rocky Mountain Fur Company and became involved in the Santa Fe fur trade.
On May 27, 1831, while en route to Santa Fe, Jedediah Smith was surrounded and killed by Comanche Indians at a water hole near the Cimarron River. His body was never found.
Jedediah Smith's pioneering memory is honored in a number of ways including:
- A Birthday Celebration for Jedediah Smith is held in January at the Stockton, California Wildlife Museum. The 200th Birthyear Celebration for relatives of Jedediah Smith was celebrated in 1999.
- The Jedediah Smith Society holds two regular membership meetings per year, one in April at the time of the California History Institute at UOP, and a fall "rendezvous" in late September or early October at a historic location on or near one of Jed Smith's known campsites.
A number of locations in the U.S. also celebrate Smith's legacy:
- The Jedediah Smith Wilderness includes most of the western slope of Wyoming's famous Teton Range.
- The Jediedah Smith Redwood State Park near Crescent City, California, offers camping and outdoor activities.
- The Smith River in California includes 46 tributaries that are protected.
- Smith River National Recreation Area in northern California offers camping and outdoor activities.
- The Jedediah Smith Memorial Bicycle Trail runs along 32 miles of parkway from Old Sacramento, California to Folsom Lake.
- Jedediah Smith Society: History Department, University of the Pacific, Stockton, CA 95211.

The Saguaro often begins life in the shelter of a "nurse" tree or shrub which can provide a shaded, moister habitat for the germination of life. The Saguaro grows very slowly -- perhaps an inch a year -- but to a great height, 15 to 50 feet.

The St. Louis Cardinals have signed versatile Ty Wigginton to a two-year contract, according to a report.
The value of the contract is approximately $5 million, Fox Sports reported Friday.
The right-handed-hitting Wigginton hit .235 with 11 home runs in 360 plate appearances for Philadelphia in 2012.
Wiggington, 35, likely will fill utility and pinch-hitting roles for the Cardinals. He played first base, third and the outfield last season for the Phillies.

if you're still using beta 7 or beta 8, don't upgrade to the final version.
here's a list of broken things in 5.0 final:

3. printing doesn't work well for text marked up with <TT> and <I>.
i've been using mozilla lately for times when opera looks too awful.
geez. this was the nicest and best behaved browser out of the entire bunch.
i hope they fix it.

COLUMBIA – There is no team in college baseball that South Carolina knows better than Florida, which the Gamecocks have played five times in each of the past two seasons. Yet as the teams renew their rivalry this weekend in Gainesville, beginning with tonight's game on ESPNU, the Gators are struggling to find their own identity.
Gone from last season's team are all nine of the players selected in Major League Baseball's draft, including five players picked in the first three rounds and two first-round selections. Encountering Florida last year "was like playing a big league team," said USC catcher Grayson Greiner. Like USC, Florida made the College World Series in each of the past three seasons.
Now, the Gators might not even make the NCAA tournament. The midpoint of the Southeastern Conference schedule arrives after this weekend's games, and the Gators begin their series with 11th-ranked USC at 16-18, 5-7 in the SEC, though they won at No. 7 Florida State on Tuesday.
Few things have gone right for the Gators since they arrived in Omaha last year as the nation's top-ranked team, hoping to build off 2011, when they lost to USC in the College World Series final, two games to none. Florida was 3-1 against the Gamecocks last season before opening the World Series against them. But after USC immediately sent Florida into the losers' bracket in Omaha, the Gators dropped their next game to Kent State and were done.
It matters little this weekend that USC beat Florida 7-3 last year in Omaha, or that the Gamecocks are 6-4 against the Gators over the past two seasons. More pressing is the health of freshman second baseman Max Schrock, as the Gamecocks try to build on back-to-back sweeps of Texas A&M and Tennessee.
In Tuesday's win over The Citadel, Schrock was plowed over by a runner while covering first base and sustained a mild concussion and neck whiplash. He traveled to Florida, but his playing status remains uncertain. Schrock, a prodigious hitter, batted .212 in the first half of the season, which concluded with the Texas A&M series. Then, at Tennessee, he was 7 for 12 with seven runs batted-in.
USC is starting to win with offense, an encouraging but not unexpected development for coach Chad Holbrook. In its past three games, it scored 12 and 19 runs, and beat The Citadel 6-5 on a walk-off solo home run by shortstop Joey Pankake. Players like Pankake and Greiner, who started as freshmen last year, have learned that college baseball requires an assertive mindset at the plate.
Pankake hit .264 last year and was 4 for 20 against Florida. He is now hitting .295 and has 25 RBI, two fewer than he had last year. Greiner hit .222 last year and was 1 for 13 against Florida. His average is now .289 and his 24 RBI are eight fewer than he had all of last season.
"I did the walk of shame a lot last year, a lot more than I wanted to, back to the dugout," Greiner said. "That's the worst feeling playing baseball, making that walk back there. I try (now) and get my hacks in early. In high school, you could just sit on off speed or fastball because when you're some of the better players in high school, you don't get much to hit. But at this level, you've got to really pay attention to scouting reports, watch what (the pitcher) does to other batters, what he does in between innings. If you get one pitch, you've got to hit it, because if you miss that one pitch, you're probably not going to get another one after that."
Last season, Florida's weekend starters included a first-round pick, Brian Johnson, and a seventh-rounder, Hudson Randall. The third starter, Jonathon Crawford, is back this season, but he is 1-5 with a 4.37 earned-run average.
USC has starting rotation issues of its own. Nolan Belcher, strong all season, will start tonight. Jordan Montgomery, making his second start since missing four because of an elbow injury, goes Friday. He will not have a limited pitch count, like he did at Tennessee, where he threw 59.
The Saturday starter is unclear. USC began the season with Montgomery, Belcher and Colby Holmes as the starters. Montgomery's injury and Holmes' ineffectiveness bumped Evan Beal and Jack Wynkoop into starting roles. Montgomery's return knocked Wynkoop out of the weekend rotation. Beal remained, but has struggled in each of his past three starts.
After Florida, USC faces No. 13 Kentucky, No. 3 LSU and No. 2 Vanderbilt in its next three series, which could define the Gamecocks' regular season. So, like Florida, USC is hoping to find some answers this weekend as another homestretch push for Omaha begins.

It has been a long non-division schedule for both Ackerman and East Webster.
This week the Indians and Wolverines square off in each team's first Class 2A, Region 2, District 4 game.
East Webster (5-1) travels to Ackerman (4-2) for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff.
As the final seconds ticked off the clock, a couple of Starkville Academy players grabbed the water cooler and doused coach Chad Peterson.
They were celebrating their second Mississippi Association of Independent Schools Class AAA, District 2, Division II title.
The Volunteers (6-1) did it in convincing fashion with a 35-0 win over Copiah Academy at J.E. Logan Field Thursday night.
The Starkville High School 9th grade Yellowjackets started fast against the Louisville Wildcats Thursday night.
When quarterback Montario Montgomery found Terrance Grayer for a 61-yard touchdown pass on the first offensive possession of the game for Starkville and Deontay Rogers ran in the two-point conversion, it was the first eight of what turned out to be 28 points for the home team.
The smile that came across the face of Emilie Sanders said it all Thursday afternoon.
All of the seniors for the Starkville Academy girls soccer team saw action during the final home match and all of them scored a goal during an 11-0 victory over Copiah Academy at the Starkville Sportsplex.
Sanders was the final senior to get in on the fun in the later stages of the second half.
Baseball is different at Mississippi State.
It is not just something Bulldog fans watch until the next football season. It is more. Baseball is important.
Today, MSU opens its 45 days of fall baseball with a scrimmage at Dudy Noble Field at 4 p.m.
EUPORA – In Lee Berryhill's first season, the East Webster slowpitch softball team greeted him with a Class 2A, Region 5, District 4 championship.
The Lady Wolverines took care of business and beat Eupora 7-2 Thursday to ensure the title.
Mississippi State fans have heard new football uniforms were on the way.
On Wednesday, the Bulldogs unveiled the look they will don during their games with Texas A&M and Ole Miss.
MATHISTON – There's a saying that defense wins championships.
East Webster's defense is making that cliche look promising.
The Wolverines are 5-1 this season and a big reason is the defense. East Webster head coach Doug Wilson echos that cliche and knows how important defense is in this game.
"Defense wins championships," Wilson said. "It is just as important as a fast-paced offense."
The Provine High School Rams may not have the type of record that is overly impressive, but they have a running game that does.
Frank Jenkins and Robert Lee have combined for 714 yards rushing this season. Jenkins is the top rushing Ram with 388 yards on 85 carries.
Sometimes it's hard to find a silver lining when a soccer team doesn't score a goal in a match.
However, Starkville Academy soccer coach Robert Gardner found a reason to be encouraged Wednesday afternoon.

Extra Long Satin Gloves
Also found in:
♠ Gloves ♠ Leg Avenue ♠ Cosplay
When the Classic Satin Gloves aren't quite fancy enough, these above-the-elbow gloves are perfect for any princess.
At about 21 inches from end of glove to tip of middle finger, they went happily over the elbows on all of us. The arms stretched nicely up to 15 inches around at the upper end.
Would work best for small to medium hands. There's lots of stretch and finger room, but wider hands will have discomfort with the thumb gusset.
Additional Info: Made in China. Leg Avenue has close relationships with its manufacturers, visits their facilities on a regular basis and requires they comply with fair trade standards and follow ethical labor practices.
Fiber Content: 96% nylon, 4% spandex
Hand wash cold, drip dry.
Label: Leg Avenue
Would it be inadvisable to attempt dyeing a pair of these? (I'm going to be working on a Belle (Disney's Beauty and the Beast) costume, and it seems dark yellow/gold is not a popular color for these.)
What is the smallest arm size that these would fit comfortably on? I don't want these to slide down, and with some gloves, I have had to use tape to keep them up. (smallest upper arm dimension?)
Dearest Sock Dreams: Received my package of fabulous socks and tights and just had to give you all a big thank you! LOVE the watermelon stripes, and the cable knit socks are so comfortable. Thanks again for fueling my addiction to your socks!

What's in the Best Mouthwash for Treating Bad Breath?
Do you have oral odor, bad breath or evil-smelling exhalations? Is every puff from your palate putrid, every gasp gross? Is your respiration rank? In short, do you have halitosis? If so, you're probably on the hunt for the best mouthwash around. Well, look no further. TheraBreath is here to help.
We find that many people come to us feeling frustrated about the mouthwash that they're using. After all, most alcohol-based mouthrinses promise to nix bacteria, sweeten breath, thicken enamel and so on. Why is it that these products just don't seem to work?
The problem is in the ingredients. Simply put, common mouthwashes are missing the compounds they should have and contain what they don't need. TheraBreath, on the other hand, creates the best mouthwash around.
The worst mouthrinses contain alcohol. This may sound silly, since alcohol kills microbes, right? Well, even though ethanol eliminates many bacteria – the usual figure is 99.99 percent, though that's not necessarily accurate – it can't kill them all. Those that remain quickly repopulate your mouth with a new breed of slightly more resilient microorganisms.
That's no good. On top of that, alcohol dries out your palate, leaving your mouth in prime condition for recolonization. Dryness can irritate your gums and tongue, too, as can sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), another common ingredient in typical mouthwashes. This chemical is a surfactant and detergent. That's right: SLS is similar to the stuff you wash your dirty clothes in.
If that's what you want foaming up in your mouth, feel free. However, know that SLS can make you more likely to suffer from canker sores. These mouth ulcers can be very painful. Skip the standard rinses, use TheraBreath's specialty rinses, and you can keep your mouth moister.
Here's what our best mouthwashes contain that others don't.
– Zinc: Numerous experts point to zinc as an ingredient that can reduce halitosis the natural way. TheraBreath PLUS Oral Rinse contain zinc compounds that sweeten your breath and eliminate bacteria, all while leaving no metallic aftertaste.
– Tea tree oil: This natural extract appears to slow bacterial growth. Plus, it leaves a fresh, cool feeling on your palate.
– Oxygenating compounds: What puts TheraBreath's rinses head and shoulders
above the rest are their oxygenating substances, which foam up in the mouth and can dislodge tonsil stones and food particles. Oxygen is a key odor-fighting ingredient. The bacteria that live on your tongue and teeth are anaerobic, meaning they thrive when the oxygen content in your mouth dips. To zap these critters away, gargle with an oxygenating mouthrinse today.

Back again! This past week just flew by, and now its crunch time. I'm currently working on creating a literary unit of study for first graders. I'm supposed to be working with my group right now, but I'm distracted J We are currently sitting in the University Memorial Center, slaving over the corrections for our unit that is due tomorrow.
This past week, CU had the entire week off of school to celebrate the holidays. After 13 weeks of going strong, students packed up their suticases and headed home, ready to kick their feet up, take hour long naps, eat homecooking, and take showers that actually have decent pressure (or maybe that's just me). It was both well deserved and well needed.
Hello everyone,
Who knew break would come so soon? As I sit on my bed back home in New York, I'm thinking to myself …okay, when do I get to go back to Boulder again? As I was landing in Newark airport (side note: don't ever fly into Newark if you don't have to), I realized how fortunate I am to be able to attend such an incredible school and get such an incredible education.
We did it! The CU football team got its first win against the University of Arizona this past Saturday! It was so strange to see the Buffs playing at such a high and successful level, but I loved it!
Hey Friends,
Habits are what build up character and its important to work on habits now instead of later. Why do tomorrow what can be done today. Right?
Well, my health is my most priced asset (capital) and its the core of my productivity in school. Therefore, I absolutely do not spare myself when it comes to good food. Food is fuel and I need to keep this fire burning. Boulder is great because it has such a beautiful collection of restaurants and cafes. I've never been to another small city with great food beneath the mountains.
Hey everyone!
Long time, no blog. My apologies!
My semester has picked up tremendously and I am slowly realizing the difficulties of taking 18 credits (6 classes) on top of work and my social life! Complaints set aside, however, I will share with you one of the coolest projects I am currently working on.
Note: What I am about to share with you is totally stereotypical of Boulder, but it is important nonetheless!
Wow! Two more weeks until Thanksgiving break…can someone remind me how that happened again? I feel like every semester of college has been going by faster and faster as I get older and older. Scary thought right? Upcoming exciting events though are:
Hey everyone!
Now that it's November, it's definitely winter in Boulder! We had our fist snow about two weeks ago, and it was absolutely breathtaking. See my photos below for details, but when the flatirons are frosted after a snowfall, it's hard to go to class and not just stare at them.

People for Open Government
"POG" - is a nonpartisan, political committee dedicated to:
Promotion of open, accountable and transparent municipal government.
Active participation of Hoboken residents in municipal affairs.
Curbing the undue influence of campaign contributions on public policy .
April 30, 2012
The Hon. Ravinder Bhalla, Esq.
President, Hoboken City Council
Dear Ravi:
The Board of Directors of People for Open Government (POG) invited you, and any Council colleagues you chose, to meet with us in a public forum to discuss problems with the way the City Council conducts its business. In reply, you have said that, instead of such a meeting, POG should send you a list of remedies to the problems we have identified. POG expects the City Council and City administration to be willing to meet with citizen groups on public issues. Such meetings would foster the accountable and transparent government to which POG is dedicated. Inasmuch as you are unwilling or unavailable to meet with us, this letter will inform you of our thinking.
POG's main concern is with the difficulty for the public of obtaining information about Council agenda items in a timely way.
As for POG's remedy, we ask that, at a minimum, the Council follow its own rules as set forth in the Resolution Adopting New Rules of Procedures for the City Council of the City of Hoboken, adopted by the City Council Feb. 18, 2009. Article IV provides that "All reports, communications, resolutions, ordinances, contract documents, or other matters to be submitted to the Council, shall be delivered to the City Clerk by 4:00 P.M. on the Thursday preceding each regular Wednesday Council meeting." Further, the City Clerk shall make the agenda available to the public as well as Council members and City officials "no later than 4:00 P.M. on the Friday prior to the Wednesday meeting." Exceptions shall be items "of an urgent nature, and . . . shall have the written approval of the Mayor before presentation to the Council." The Council should adhere to these procedures and deadlines in order for the public to be properly informed in a timely way about Council business.
We use the expression "at a minimum" above because we think there were other steps the Council could take in addressing these issues. You have said that the Council recognizes that there are difficulties with its present operations and that it is considering changes to its procedures. We look forward to learning about your proposals.
Alice Crozier, President, for the POG Board
Cc: Council members
Mayor Zimmer
April 12, 2011
People for Open Government (POG) is dedicated to open, accountable and transparent municipal government in Hoboken and one of our goals is to curb the undue influence of campaign contributions on public policy.
We are disheartened to hear Hoboken Councilman Michael Russo, in his own words on FBI tapes in the Spring of 2009, while at lunch with an FBI informant, talk about legal restrictions on campaign contributions, anti-"Pay to Play" laws, as "nonsense." Additionally, we are troubled by Mr. Russo's description of how he would, in theory, control and circumvent what should be the autonomous planning and zoning processes for development in Hoboken.
With the support of Hoboken citizens, POG has worked hard over the years to open the processes of government, shine light on its procedures, and reform government to work more in favor of the citizens than for the special interests and the politicians themselves. We have had good success in enacting anti- "Pay to Play" laws that strengthen restrictions on money in politics.
But Councilman Russo reminds us when he says that he operates under the mantra, "I do for you, you do for me," that we must continue to fight against those that use their positions in government to advance and enrich themselves and their selected friends over the interests of the public that they are sworn to serve.
Using the taxpayer-supported resources of government to selectively buy favor and promises of support is wrong and those who violate this public trust should be held accountable.
Revelations that then candidate for office and recently resigned Public Safety Director Angel Alicea also met with the same FBI informant as Russo, while important, are a separate matter and one about which the public has a right to know. Our Mayor and the full City Council must take forceful measures to rebuild the public trust that is necessary for us to have confidence in our government.
Please join us in our on-going endeavor to make government work better for the people.
In 2004, POG created a package of reform ordinances, in cooperation with New Jersey Common Cause and the Center for Civic Responsibility, with the intent of reducing the amount of money in municipal elections, and leveling the playing field among municipal candidates, as well as among developers seeking variances or redevelopment contracts, and entities seeking no-bid professional services contracts with the city. The purpose of the reform package was to lower the cost of professional service contracts, improve the quality of services provided to Hoboken, and increase the publics knowledge of, and trust in, government.
Electronic Accessibility of Public Information
Ordinance requires the city to make public notices, agendas, and records available in electronic form in the City Clerks office as well as on the Hoboken City website.
Competitive Negotiations for
Professional Services Contracts
Ordinance requires that the city award all contracts or agreements to outside consultants for the provision of professional services on the basis of competitive negotiation.
Developer Contribution Disclosure Statement
Ordinance requires developers before the City Zoning or Planning boards, or taking part in redevelopment processes, to disclose contributions made to city officers and political candidates.
Public Contracting Reform
Ordinance restricts the amount of campaign contributions that are permitted to be made to Hoboken politicians by professional services entities that have contracts with or seek to obtain contracts from the city.
Public Contracting Reform
Not a new ordinance, actually, but better and more comprehensive than the previous law.
Redevelopment Pay-to-Play Reform
Ordinance prohibits developers who engage in redevelopment activities from contributing to local candidates and political parties. This will help reduce the amount of influence developers have in creating and defining our redevelopment zones.
Amending the Professional Services Contract
Designates compliance officer who will create and make public a list of
no-bid professional contractors and redevelopers with contracts or agreement with the city of Hoboken; who will receive and check local ELEC filings for compliance with reform ordinances; who will receive anD investigate complaints from public; and who will report regularly to the City Council on the status of any investigations or complaints.

Zients to Serve as Acting OMB Director
January 17, 2012
Jeff Zients is returning for another tour as acting director at the Office of Management and Budget, the White House announced Tuesday.
Zients, currently OMB's deputy director for management, will step in near the end of the month for outgoing director Jack Lew, who is leaving to become White House chief of staff. Zients had previously served as acting OMB chief from July 2010 to November 2010, after then-director Peter Orszag resigned and Lew was awaiting Senate confirmation.
"Since day one, Jeff has demonstrated superb judgment and has provided sound advice on a whole host of issues," President Obama said in a news release. "With decades of experience, Jeff has been a tremendous asset to our team and I'm confident in his ability to help us rebuild an economy where hard work and responsibility pay off and the middle class has a chance to get ahead."

Another e-paper technology looks promising
October 7, 2010 | 8:15 am
By Chris Meadows
Ars Technica has a report on a new form of e-paper that could offer the same low power consumption rate as the e-ink used in current e-readers, but at a much higher refresh rate and better screen reflectiveness.
Gamma Dynamics's e-paper screen uses layers of oil and pigment that can be induced to change places through an electrical voltage. It could offer a refresh rate of 50Hz, and possibly color eventually. (At the moment it works best in grayscale.)
The screen will reflect 75% of ambient light, rather than the 40% of e-ink or 30% of electrowetting, making it easier to read in brighter areas without needing additional power.
This looks like a promising technology, though I hope they figure out something else to call it. If everything that isn't "e-ink" becomes "e-paper" things are going to get pretty confusing.

Interesting, but it looks to be at least a couple of years from market. The near-term new display looks to be mirasol, due out in products withing the next six months.
And mirasol already does colour and video refrash rates, which being a relfective, bi-stable display.
But the more the merrier. It's about time eInk got some serious competition.

UTSA P-20 Initiatives sponsors March 31 workshop for high schoolers
(March 27, 2012) -- The UTSA Office of P-20 Initiatives invites UTSA faculty and staff members with children in the ninth and 10th grades to bring their young students to a special all-day event Saturday, March 31 at the UTSA Downtown Campus.
In collaboration with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute, the Ready to Lead (R2L) program will present a free workshop on leadership. The program provides high school students with the tools and training they need to prepare for college.
The goal of the program is to motivate more Latino high school students to attend college, empower them to serve and lead in their communities, and instill the belief in them that a college education is achievable.
The workshop will be presented in several cities across the country with predominantly Latino populations. Since its inception in 2007, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute has assisted more than 4,300 high school students.
To reserve a seat at the workshop, contact Pamela Cervera, high school programs specialist, at 202-548-8780 or Darrell Balderrama, UTSA Office of P-20 Initiatives, at 210-458-2697.

The World Today, Volume 70, Number 1
When Nina Simone sang To be Young, Gifted and Black, she might have had Ndidi Nwuneli in mind: a degree from Harvard, a stint as management consultant with McKinsey & Co and named by Forbes in 2011 as one of the 20 Youngest Power Women in Africa.
On a trip to Ramallah, she was asked why she was in Palestine helping them while her country was in a 'mess'.
The question prompted her to think about poor leadership in Nigeria. It filled her with rage, and led her to quit her job in the US and return to Nigeria to set up LEAP, a non-profit organization dedicated to breeding an 'army of committed change agents' - young people, business owners and social entrepreneurs who cared about making a difference.
Her latest venture, moving into the for-profit arena, is an agribusiness and agro-processing company which aims to replace imports with locally sourced produce.
Ndidi attended a state-funded secondary school in Nigeria, and was lucky to have access to a university education in the United States.
This marked her out as the stereotypical 'Nigerian in the diaspora'. Ndidi did not see this label as a status symbol, but recognized the responsibility it carried. On moving home, she refused to accept the way things were.
Many young Nigerians have experienced life in the West and developed a sense of how things could be in a well-run Nigeria. Many are investing their energy in projects to improve the daily lives of Nigerians.
Like Ndidi, Jason Njoku, the founder of the online home video channel, iROKOtv, and Ikenna Azuike, video blogger and founder of the hugely popular 'What's up Africa', are using new media to spread ideas out of Nigeria while creating sustainable businesses.
Ndidi, Ikenna, Jason and many other Africans like them have shared their stories at TEDxEuston, an annual event in London - these days not necessarily being held in Euston - where speakers drawn from the arts to business and public service hold discussions on African issues. It challenges the notion of the 'single African story' and encourages engagement.
A common theme is a passion to drive the continent to fulfil its potential. This message is amplified through social media and influences conversations all over the continent.
There is increased optimism among Nigerians in the diaspora - and in Nigeria too - that democracy is here to stay. While acknowledging the challenges ahead, there is a consensus that building a better Nigeria will require ordinary people to get more involved in holding elected politicians to account.
The next frontier will be translating this engagement into real change in the way politics is conducted. Nigerian governments can no longer ignore political controversies for weeks, as they did in the past.
The current Nigerian president has a special adviser on social media. His chief spokesman is on Twitter - @abati1990 - and has over 80,000 followers.
The sacking in January of Nigeria's top military chiefs was announced on Twitter. One of the most vibrant Nigerian citizen journalism websites, Sahara Reporters, is edited primarily by Nigerians in the diaspora, but draws most of its readers from within Nigeria, who fuel a lively comments section.
We live in interesting times. An increasing number of Nigerians are returning to re-engage with the country. Many are doing this primarily to participate in the economic opportunities that are emerging, and having spent time abroad, they are bold enough to voice opinions.
This mix of engaged citizens and social media platforms will play an increasingly important role in Nigerian politics.
More savvy politicians are developing their social media skills and engaging their audiences in debates on the things that matter to them; others still ignore social media or outsource their presence, often to poorly qualified assistants.
The effect of this activity on the 2015 elections in Nigeria is difficult to predict, especially as many poor Nigerians outside urban areas remain cut off from social media, but it is likely that this is the last generation of politicians who can ignore these trends.
As Ndidi Nwuneli has said, the biggest challenge for those in the diaspora is not to simply get angry but to channel that anger into the things that matter most, in building the country of our dreams. She calls this a 'rage for change'.
Ndidi reflects the ideas of a new generation of African thinkers and leaders, committed to re-engaging with the continent.

"Let each man exercise the piece of art he owns."
Aristophanes, a classic playwright, wrote, "let each man exercise the art he knows." The heroes of his plays were resourceful, independent-minded and self-reliant. (Nearly all the plays are part of the Great Books.) As I was thinking about the subject I wanted to write about in this post, it seemed to me a perfect fit to impose some creative liberty on his classical words to create this post's title. After all, what greater piece of art is there than the human body you own.
Spring is here. Summer next. Sunshine. Heat. The beach. The pool bar-b-qs. Shorts and tank tops. Bathing suits. Time to shred the winter wardrobe and get outside and have some physical activity and fun. What about you?
Every single day someone writes and asks me "how" to get in shape and live a healthy life.
Frankly, "how" is easy. A "fitness trainer" search on Google digs up 2,680,000 links. "Fitness training" pulls up 34,600,000 links. "Exercise advice" pulls up 23,000,000 links. All these same searches at Amazon bring up over 20,000 books and dvd products. Google "exercise science" and 33,100,000 links pop up.
That's a whole hell of a lot of "how."
Makes you wonder why then there are approximately 127 million adults in the U.S. who are overweight, 60 million obese, and 9 million severely obese. And what about all the other millions who do not do any exercise at all and miss out on the great life-quality benefits.
What's missing? Same thing that is always missing. The unvarnished truth and people's unwillingness to accept it.
My Warrior Workout START Kit is the truth. The kind you sometimes are not in the mood to hear, let alone accept. But it may just be the very thing that pisses you off at yourself enough to finally inspire you to get up off your ass and get your health and fitness act together once and for all — for good.
It's time, isn't it? Too much time has gone by already, and time has this funny thing about it that once it is gone you never get it back. If you want to better the quality of your life (well, do you or not!?), START with bettering the great piece of art you already own — your Body. Exercise WILL do this. I promise. If you are ready…START now…purchase at paypal.

Cairo — Egyptian Opposition groups have called for mass protests on Friday against President Mohamed Morsi's surprise decision to give himself, and the Islamist-dominated assembly writing Egypt's new constitution, extraordinary new powers.
The decree states that the president's decisions cannot be revoked by any authority, including the judiciary.
They have described his move as a "coup against legitimacy" and accused the president of appointing himself Egypt's "new pharaoh".
"This is a coup against legitimacy. We call on all Egyptians to protest in all of Egypt's squares on Friday," Sameh Ashour, Head of the Egyptian Lawyers syndicate said at a joint news conference with Mohamed ElBaradei and Amr Moussa.

Tanga — CASHEW farmers in Tanga Region have appealed to the government to repossess idle cashew nut processing factories and handle the facilities to them through co-operatives.
They said, if the factories were handled over to them they would do wonders and operate at full capacity, unlike current situation whereby many of the factories are either idle or turned into warehouses. The farmers gave the request yesterday during the cashew farmers' meetings held in Tanga and Mkinga districts, discussing various challenges facing the industry.
Earlier, the chairman of Cashewnut Industry Development Trust Fund, Athuman Nkinde from Mtwara, told the meeting that the government has been urging the farmers not to sell raw cashew nut. He said if the cashew farmers wanted to get rid of poverty, they should process their products which at present commands a good market internationally.
Citing as an example, Mr Nkinde said that a kilo of raw cashewnut is being sold at 1,200/- but the same kilo of the processed one is more than 15,000/-.
However, he urged them to unite through their cooperatives so that the Fund would assist them with processing machines and even with good quality seeds. The fund's chairman was in Tanga to promote the growth and revival of cashew nut crop because the crop thrives well in Tanga and Mkinga districts. However, farmers have been discouraged due to lack of reliable market and high prices of inputs.

There's a dog in peril, after all.
But of course, there is still no way to make fun of Barack Obama.
Stop trying, conservative curmudgeons.
Give up on that wild goose chase, silly reich-wingers.
The well-paid comedy geniuses at Hollywood have tried their damnedest to find an angle by which they can satirize the President. Boy, have they ever tried. It's been a truly heroic effort. If our media betters can't make a joke stick on Obama, there's simply no hope for the rest of us.

Advent by Candlelight and Lent by Candlelight
Lent by Candlelight is an adaptation of Advent by Candlelight
for the season of Lent, with a focus on the Passion of Christ.
Advent by Candlelight is an event to help women
focus on Christ during the busy holiday season.
Share the message of Christmas!
These events can be designed as an outreach to the community or an opportunity to encourage believers. Most commonly, women gather for a brief service or program (see below) followed by food and fellowship. Some groups do all the decorating while others have hostesses who each decorate one table and provide refreshments for those guests.
Flexibility makes this an excellent ministry tool. There are a variety of services which can be adapted to any setting and countless ways to host the event based on the resources available.
Need additional help? We have hostess guidelines, and bulletin/newsletter articles to help you plan your event.
How do you start? Talk to your pastor! Explain that the purpose of an Advent By Candlelight service is to gather women together around the Word of God in a quiet setting to help them focus on the true meaning of Christmas. Through narration, readings, prayer, music and optional skits, the evening will draw them to see Christ as the Savior.
Gather a few ladies to help with music, narration, decorating or hosting tables and set a date! Announce the event and invite others with posters, bulletin and newsletter information.
Trust that God will always bless the proclamation of His Word! Enjoy creating a beautiful ambience, but know that the power is in the message of the Gospel!
Lent by candlelight
Lent is becoming a popular time to hold candlelight programs. Here are Lent by candlelight programs for you to consider:

Kevin O'Leary …you are a prime example of what the protests of OWS are all about…not wanting working Canadians to benefit with our social programs and healthcare…want to de-regulate banks in Canada which would have been a disaster during this recession…but on the same hand you get funded by Canadian taxpayer dollars to run your call centers with the enviroment of sweat shops without providing your workers with any basic rights…Now on this show you again are being paid by taxpayer dollars to insult guests. If you had done your homework on Mr Hedges agenda..he has been very clear about not being anti-corporation or business for those who create jobs…Again he has been very clear about financial institutions that want to control peoples social securities…pension funds etc to play the gambling investment game with..So O'Leary so if your are who you profess to be stop using taxpayers money for you cheap shod business..Step down from your job on CBC…you are not an investigative reporter..You are simply a mouthpiece and a poor one at that for the 1% who use tax loops and corporate government welfare for your own benefit.

Pingback: [AUDIO] "OBAMA WAS NOTHING BUT A BRAND": CHRIS HEDGES IN CONVERSATION WITH MICHAEL ENRIGHT ON CBC RADIO'S SUNDAY EDITION « rudhro's ruminatoria
I watched with disgust as this so called Journalist insulted a rare human being and humanist Chris Hedges, but Mr. Hedges put the guy in his place and any impartial person can judge for himself/herself. O'Learly looked like a nut that he is, a capitalist of the Oligarch type that poses as a journalist advancing the corrupt system and protecting the big bankers. He gets outraged that how can anyone think that the criminal Goldman-Sachs leaders should be prosecuted, and so that person suggesting this must be a left-wing nut.
Just compare: Hedges who could have had enough money (he was a top reporter for NY Times, and he is Pulitzer prize winner) and a comfortable life, has chosen a really tough life in support of his belief and for humanity, He actually was told by NYT to stop his activism or else and he resigned. Woludn't a normal person, left or right, or impartial just respect him for that, even if one disagrees with his opinion? How many of the people in the media, or anywhere, have 1% of his courage and humanity? Next time O'Leary opens his big mouth, he should at least know who he has on his show. Now compare Hedges with this little miserable guy O'Leary. Compare that with a pig that will do anything, including lying, to keep his status and his money and has no empathy for millions of people, billions all over the world, being hurt as direct result of this inhumane and predatory mega ponzi scheme called world financial system and globalization, that is profiting from child labor, trashing the environment, etc. etc.
The mouth piece of this system, the bought-up media (from the trash like the NY Post, and Fox News, to the sophisticated like the Economist magazine) always praise this system that raises the standard of living (essentially creates a world labour market for lower wages and create essentially the neo-feudal system, with everyone working like dogs for subsistence living, and the top 1% reaping the benefits (of course this is nothing but the classic definition of fascism). This is the nightmare world that all big thinkers always have warned us against and the realization of Ayn Rand dream, that socipath and third rate philosopher wanabe, and the grand old mentor of the disgraced and corrupt Alan Greenspan.
If there ever was a true prophet, Hedges and Chomsky must be at top of the list, may be after Jesus and Buda, the difference is that the last two may be complete fiction whereas the former two are real.
Mr. O'Leary I know you believe this in your heart (that these people are all left nut cases) ,not necessarily because you are not well-informed, which you are not, but also because you are that 1% of the 1% who has sold his soul, does not even want to think that maybe thousands of people showing up in protests might have a point, and that necessarily they must be all left-wing nut cases. This is very similar to Nazi propaganda. He should at least be aware that people with some conscience from the top 1% are reflecting exactly the same sentiment as shown by the "Occupy" movement, just read what Bill Gross the founder of the largest bond-fund recently said: "Wall Street Protesters Are Just Fighting Back After '30 Years Of Being Shot At"
There is a theory in psychology that one projects his own thoughts and personality on other people, in fact it is O'Leary who is angry and a nut case plus shallow and illiterate as well (yes right "the OWS people does not even know the name of the banks"). I have a lot of adjectives, mostly four letter, than would like to shower on O'Leary but will abstain out of respect for this blog.
I am so outraged that I believe that we should create a response to O'Leary by starting a petition signed by people that condemns the way he conducted that interview, also we can dig some info that may really expose this guy and show that he is not just expressing an opinion. If the FED governor Frederic S. Mishkin (Ivy League Economist) can be bought (as proved in the film Inside Job) why not a lowly "journalist" like O'Leary? (oh, but he is an entrepreneur with lots of money, but remember no amount of money is enough for these sociopaths!)
When you watch the clips of the "Occupy" movement on the YouTube and elsewhere you see that they are mostly young, intelligent, and know exactly why they are there and have demands like give us back our rights and government, and can elaborate their opinions. The media keeps censoring this message and (because it is controlled by the corporations and the Wall Street) has to claim that they just don't know what they want, which of course is a lie. Media has to keep up its propaganda otherwise it's not doing the job its owners expect of them, their role is misinformation very similar to Nazi propaganda but with a soft edge.
