Stay safe at holiday cookout with these tips
PHOENIX -- With the Fourth of July coming up, the Mesa Fire Department is reminding grillers of some safety tips.
Advice includes:
� The grill should be in good working condition. Make sure excess grease has been removed and the propane hose line is not damaged.
� Situate the grill away from where people are gathering or children are playing. Keep the grill at least 10 feet away from the house and low-hanging tree branches.
� Anyone manning the grill should wear long mitts especially made for barbecuing and cook with long-handled grilling utensils.
"Furthermore, when it comes to using charcoal grills, make sure the coals are cooled off before you dispose of them. We have had cases where those disposed in trash cans have led to fires," said Mesa Fire Capt. Forrest Smith.

I purchased these about 12 years ago for our weekly live broadcast of our church service at a Sony Outlet store. They were refurbished and at a great price. They still are in use and sound as good as new.I have replaced the ear cushions twice but that is a small problem since they are available through Sony. I wish they had these when I was working in radio.
I bought my Sony MDR-V600s during my freshman year college in 1988. A fellow DJ at our radio station swore by them, traveling back and forth to the radio station with them in her backpack. One day I borrowed her V600s for my radio show. Incredible! They blocked out all other noise in the studio, and I could not believe how clear, deep, and rich the sound was; I purchased my own pair the next day for $100.
I have owned these headphones since 1994 or somewhere about that time. I was 14 years old when I got these headphones. They cost the same back then as they do now, which really surprised me to see that the cost hasn't gone up for an incredible piece of audio equipment. I bought these headphones to block out the noise on the school bus so that I could actually hear my music. They performed incredibly well! The sound is clear with both highs and lows. The bass is almost amazing! After 16 years of owning these headphones, the ear pads are finally getting to the point where they need to get replaced. I have NO complaints about these spectacular headphones! I would buy them again in a heartbeat! If you're in the market for some great headphones, GET THESE! You WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!
I've been a professional DJ for about 35 years. I've owned every brand of headphone you can name. These may not be better then the more costly phones, but they are as good. I've owned these about 20 years (it's been so long I don't remember how long). They are just now starting to wear out (they are starting to sound bad at high volume). You can be a whatabe and pay three times more so you can own the ones that everybody say you should own. But they are not going to be any better. Your just the dipsh~t that paid more. These sound very clear with good sound quality. I've used these in the biggest nightclubs with the biggest, baddest, loudest sound systems around and you can still hear these loud and clear. They do a good job keeping the unwanted sound out. While being loud and clear enough to hear the music your mixing in. If your a DJ that really needs a good pair of headphones at a good price. These are the ones....PERIOD!. Oh, and they are very comfortable to.
This is hands down the best pair of headphones I have owned so far. They sound great and I've had them for over 5 years and they havent died yet. These arent the nearly disposable headphones you get nowadays. This is a great design that will last for years as long as you take decent care of them. The one downside is that the cord is so long that it might not be ideal for people on the go. But these are studio monitor headphones so I'm not sure why you would use them as such.

An NPR Weekend Edition feature from October 2007 discusses author Jay Winik's book about the burst of revolutionary upheaval around the world in the late 18th century. An excerpt from Winik's book vividly describes one man's death in the Salem witch trials and compares life in colonial New England to life in Europe at the same time.
"But Giles Corey's brutal execution was not some aberrant punishment concocted on the fringe of the Europeanized world, where, a mere seventy miles away, Indian war parties were murdering colonial farmers in their fields. No, here in this budding paradise of liberty, Corey died by means of a centuries old, rather conventional European punishment, popularized by Henry IV and named the peine forte et dure, and employed as a standard sentence for those who refused to submit to the state's will. In such ways, big and small, did the hand of the old reach out to touch the new. The waning decades of the seventeenth century remained, for a majority of mankind, the bleakest of times."

Wednesday, Oct. 16 - 5:30 – 7 p.m.
Loyola University Maryland – McGuire Hall East, Andrew White Student Center, 2nd Floor
4501 North Charles Street, Baltimore, MD 21210
How does good urban teaching differ from good teaching in other contexts? What are its joys and challenges? The panelists will use stories from their experiences as a teacher in an urban high school in Baltimore and as a director of an urban teacher preparation program in Milwaukee at Marquette University to stimulate discussion and debate about the knowledge, skills, and dispositions needed that are critical in urban teaching but not often addressed in formal teacher preparation. We will examine, What do "other mothering," "warm demanding," and "culturally responsive teaching" actually look like in real urban classrooms? How can I connect with parents and communities? And, what kinds of activism, advocacy and teacher leadership are possible for new teachers in urban classrooms?
Directions to Overflow Parking at the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen

In this Friday, Sept. 23, 2011 photo, Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea arrives at a meeting in Bkirki, north of Beirut, Lebanon. (Mohammad Azakir/The Daily Star)
BEIRUT: Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea said Friday engaging in National Dialogue with Hezbollah to resolve the issue of its arsenal would be futile, adding that the resistance group has never abided by decision arrived at in previous all-party talks.
During a news conference at his Maarab residence, Geagea also slammed Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah's threats against Israel, saying that the Lebanese had not authorized his group to set the country's foreign policy.
"Hezbollah is not willing to discuss its arms. Therefore, on what grounds should we participate once more in Dialogue sessions?"Geagea asked during the televised news conference.
"We support Dialogue in principle but not one that has produced nothing but lies and cheating," he added.
Geagea quoted several Hezbollah figures, including its leader, of voicing outright opposition to discussing the issue of its disarmament and that party members issued threats should there be any attempt to do so.
The LF leader, who is one of the opposition's leading figures, also slammed Hezbollah's "violation" of decisions arrived during previous National Dialogue sessions, including agreeing on the formation of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, which was established in 2007 to try those behind the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
"In 2006, we agreed during a Dialogue session to form an international tribunal aimed at revealing the truth behind the assassination of Hariri ... but Hezbollah lawmakers withdrew from the government when the decision was referred to Parliament," Geagea said.
He also noted that the 2008 Doha Accord, which ended street clashes in Beirut between supporters of Future Movement and Hezbollah, had stipulated the formation of a national unity government and banned any attempts to obstruct it.
"And in 2010 with the excuse of the issue of false witnesses, the March 8 ministers resigned and forced the collapse of [former Prime Minister Saad Hariri's] Cabinet," Geagea added.
Tension between rival Lebanese political parties intensified following the Oct. 19 assassination of Brig. Gen. Wissam al-Hasan, with the opposition declaring a boycott to government work. Most opposition groups also oppose a resumption of National Dialogue, which was relaunched earlier this year by President Michel Sleiman.
The March 14 coalition blames Syria for Hasan's killing and also holds the Lebanese government responsible for providing "political cover" in the case. The opposition insists that there can be no dialogue before a neutral government capable of overseeing the 2013 polls is formed.
Sleiman resumed all-party talks in July to discuss a national defense strategy to benefit from Hezbollah's arsenal.
Hezbollah insists that its weapons should remain under its authority in collaboration with the Army while its rivals in the March 14 say all arms should be under the jurisdiction of the state.
Geagea, whose party boycotted the resumption of Dialogue altogether earlier this year, said the talks were held even as several political figures were being assassinated.
"A primary look at the situation of Dialogue will show you that it was ongoing while several security incidents were taking place as well as assassinations, including the unfortunate events of May 2008," he said.
He added that the March 14's participation in such Dialogue sessions would imply that "we are covering and supporting in one way or the other actions outside the Dialogue table."
The LF leader voiced a loss of trust in Hezbollah for the multi-party to resume.
"We no longer have trust in them to engage in talks," he said.
Geagea, a staunch critic of Hezbollah, also criticized Nasrallah for warning that the resistance party's rockets could cover all of Israel in the event the latter decided to attack.
Addressing Nasrallah, he said: "You are not authorized to take such stances. The president and the government have such authority from the Lebanese people but you don't."
In his televised speech last week, Nasrallah said that his party's missiles would rain down on Tel Aviv and other cities if the Jewish state attacked Lebanon.
"Israel, which was shaken by a handful of Fajr-5 rockets during eight days – how would it cope with thousands of rockets which would fall on Tel Aviv and other [cities] ... if it attacked Lebanon?" Nasrallah said.

text: Since a lovely Christmas break, with all the stables empty and the horses out in the field having a well deserved holiday… everything is now back in full swing. The horse all came back into work at the beginning of the week, looking fat and shaggy! They will have a month of road work, then start their fast work (galloping) and their schooling, gradually getting them fit and ready for the start of the even season in March. I have two exciting new young horses for this season, Charlie- who is a 5yr, 16.1hh, dutch bred gelding, and Brian- who is a 5yr, 17.hh, dutch bred gelding. This will be both of their firsts seasons eventing, both of them have not competed before. They are both very talented young horses… so it should be a very exciting season! Mr Hiho (my top horse) thoroughly enjoyed his winter break but is now also back in full work building up his fitness… I will compete him in the Junior trials this year and aim to to the CIC** at Houghton Hall, with my eyes set on the Junior European Championships!

"It's all about giving back," Williams says. "I think we as athletes old athletes or what have you it still boils down to helping other people when you have the opportunity."

ACLU to appeal federal judge's ruling declaring NSA mass surveillance to be lawful
By End the Lie
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has already stated that they will appeal a Friday ruling handed down by a federal judge that declared the mass surveillance program run by the National Security Agency (NSA) to be lawful.
Friday's ruling sharply contrasts with another federal judge's ruling issued earlier this month in which he found the NSA's bulk collection of phone records to be likely unconstitutional.
The latest ruling dealt with the dragnet collection of the phone and internet records of Americans, which U.S. District Judge William Pauley said is just part of the government's counterterrorism efforts.
However, the other federal judge said that the government couldn't show an instance of the NSA collection thwarting a terrorist attack or aiding in "achieving any objective that was time-sensitive in nature."
In Pauley's 54-page ruling, he said that the NSA surveillance program "represents the government's counterpunch" to the threat of terrorism, according to USA Today.
Such surveillance measures will assist in "connecting fragmented and fleeting communications to reconstruct and eliminate al-Qaeda's terror network," Pauley ruled.
Pauley said that the NSA surveillance program must collect everything in order for it to work, going as far as to write that it "only works because it collects everything."
In issuing his opinion, Pauley dismissed the ACLU's attempt to challenge the constitutionality of the NSA program.
"There is no evidence that the government has used any of the bulk telephony metadata it collected for any purpose other than investigating and disrupting terrorist attacks," Pauley wrote, according to the International Business Times.
Yet Pauley acknowledged the "unintentional violation of guidelines." Previously, it was reported that there were numerous instances of the agency violating their own restrictions, including instances of agents spying on loved ones and former spouses.
He wrote that the violations "appear to stem from human error and the incredibly complex computer programs that support this vital tool."
Pauley wrote that the right to be free from unreasonable search and seizure, which is codified in the Fourth Amendment, "is fundamental, but not absolute."
"Every day, people voluntarily surrender personal and seemingly-private information to transnational corporations, which exploit that data for profit," Pauley wrote, saying that few think twice about it even though it is more invasive than the NSA's bulk data collection.
"We are extremely disappointed with this decision, which misinterprets the relevant statutes, understates the privacy implications of the government's surveillance, and misapplies a narrow and outdated precedent to read away core constitutional protections," said Jameel Jaffer, ACLU deputy legal director.
"As another federal judge and the president's own review group concluded last week, the National Security Agency's bulk collection of telephony data constitutes a serious invasion of Americans' privacy," Jaffer said.

For Pinellas and Hillsborough transit officials want collaboration, not consolidation
Janelle Irwin
WMNF Drive-Time News Friday | Listen to this entire show:
Tags: HART, psta, TBARTA, transit, Transportation
A transit merger between agencies in Pinellas and Hillsborough Counties may not be the best way to save money. An independent study was approved by the Tampa Bay Area Regional Transportation Authority during a meeting Friday that shows collaboration between the two groups could cut costs without the risk of consolidating.
The Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority and Hillsborough Area Regional Transit hired the audit firm KPMG to start weighing the pros and cons of consolidating the two groups in October. David Dennis is a partner with KPMG.
KPMG identified approximately $996,000 to $2.4 million of cost savings on an annual basis from consolidation of management, administrative support and operation functions. The cost to implement those functions would range from $1-$10 million.
That means even though the agencies could save money by merging, its also possible they could come out underwater.
While there are savings that we identified in our report through consolidation, much of the savings through consolidation could be achieved through collaboration and avoid the incremental risks from a technological, legal and operating perspective.
An earlier study conducted by PSTA and HART at the bidding of state Representative Jack Latvala identified greater savings than the KPMG study. The $100,000 cost was split between the two agencies. The KPMG study, which was funded by the state, looked at more detailed financial analysis of things like transitioning the PSTA and HART fleets to run on the same kind of fuel. Just the cost of that could be anywhere from $5-15 million. PSTA CEO Brad Miller said thats something the two agencies can do without merging.
While there may not be savings to the operations, perhaps some savings to the consolidated overhead of the two transit systems might be resulting.
The transit boards are already working together. Miller said one major collaborative effort includes creating a Smart Card that would allow transit users to have one pre-paid card that could access any regional transit.
I think as we implement it, itll be more cost effective than if you choose to pay cash or want some other kind of fare media, but were looking to expand it so that maybe it can also be used for parking or you can use the same card in your wallet for parking or ultimately down the road, I think it will even move to your smart phone and other ways to pay. But it will be consistent across no matter what system you ride on.
Instead, the TBARTA Board, which oversees regional transit efforts across multiple agencies, is suggesting the state legislature instruct PSTA and HART to continue and expand their collaborative efforts. Ronnie Duncan is the chair of TBARTA.
Maybe on the surface, taking two existing operations in their current format and putting them together doesnt make as much sense, but if we come at it from the perspective of, we really want to give people the opportunity to go from the airport to the beach or the airport or USF St. Pete to USF in Tampa, than we need to have a different mindset and thats what weve been talking about here is to how to do that and how to create that vision.
A draft letter to state lawmakers due in Tallahassee by February 1st highlights the current studys findings that collaboration carries similar cost savings without the added risk of a merger. But it didnt include any language about instructing PSTA and HART to work together. Duncan asked and the board approved adding language to the letter that would make the relationship between the two boards more than just a handshake.
They dont do something like this unless theyre mandated, forced or pushed into doing it not necessarily the right way or the right thing that should be done, but thats what happens. So, I think this directive is saying to them, you will go and sit down and have this conversation; you will go and continue the collaborative effort and every bit of collaboration that you can do, thats one more thing on the list that you dont have to worry about and thats one more way that you are closer together as one organization.
Duncan added even though the transit agencies are mostly funded through property tax revenue, there is some statewide funding that could be held over the groups heads.
The state and DOT have dollars invested in both of them and so if the state says, you need to continue that collaboration and, oh, by the way, ratchet it up ten-fold and if you dont, that money may be at risk.
A revised version that will be sent to the legislature hasnt been approved yet. PSTA CEO Miller said his board is focused right now on a one-penny sales tax proposal that will go before voters in Pinellas this November.
Were focused on Greenlight Pinellas and the referendum coming up this year to have a much better system in Pinellas County than we have now. So, perhaps HART wants to look the same way. So, rather than just looking at ways where we might take the two current systems and squeezing out some more savings, but look to how we want to grow the system regionally into the future.
If approved, the sales tax would replace a property tax that currently funds PSTA. It would increase revenue to pay for improvements to the countys bus system, bus rapid transit and passenger rail. Officials in Hillsborough County are brainstorming ways to fund similar improvements through a coalition of elected officials from the county and its three cities. That group is called the Transportation for Economic Development Policy Leadership Group.

I've tried greasing them but they eventually got noisy again after an hour or so of driving. There isn't excess play or ware nor broken pieces so what the %^$ is goin on. It sounds like a bloody creaking door when I turn while in motion or hitting bumps. I'm thinking it's possesed . THis all happened right after replacing the strut cartriges

burger company (wesley heights)
price: $-$$
rating: * * *
1500 west morehead street
charlotte, nc 28208
i've already done a few reviews of burger joints in charlotte, and i still stand firm in my assertion that the liberty has the best burger in town; however, this sentiment has never stopped me from trying out another contender. i mean, let's be honest, burgers are a ubiquitous staple of the american diet, regardless of dietary restrictions. i've tried so many different kinds of burgers: tofu burger, turkey burger, thai peanut and sriracha burger; mushroom burger, kobe beef burger, buffalo chicken burger, etc. some are excellent, others not so much . . . but i always have a good time eating them!
burger company is in the trendy, up-and-coming neighborhood known as wesley heights, which is a stone's throw from uptown charlotte. the building itself is brick, modern, and new, with a cute outdoor patio space on west morehead. the interior boasts high ceilings, cement floors, and a modern mixture of sports bar and diner/pub.
i know what you're wondering . . . how's the food? it's pretty good. i wouldn't say i was blown away, but burger company has its own unique take on its staple namesake, and they do it well. the restaurant boasts that it "grinds its own meat daily", and the ingredients taste fresh and well seasoned. my chicken breast burger on a whole wheat bun was juicy and flavorful, and the seasoned fries were crispy and hot.
we love us some fried pickles, and while the ones at burger company are a bit on the salty side, they still manage to hit the right notes.
my two favorite items we tried at burger company were the sweet potato waffle fries and my husband's meatloaf burger.
the waffle fries were crispy, sweet, and perfect. the meatloaf burger had an amazing array flavors: savory, salty, and sweet. i love a simple dish that hits many different notes, and this burger was quite close to meeting my lofty demands.
of course, following this meal, my heart had a serious discussion with me. prior to this lecture with memyselfandi, my husband spent some time with the manager of burger company. i love it when the manager of an establishment takes the time to talk to lowly food bloggers like us, and she was an absolute gem. she shared that burger company has the occasional evening of live music, and they also offer free parking for panthers games, which is a definite plus. the high ceilings and open space are great for boisterous parties and kids, so i strongly suggest it for family dinners. the prices are also incredibly reasonable, and the food is clean and tasty.
i mean, what more could a burger buff ask for than a unique burger at a good price?

Darkside conversion for R1200 BMW bikes & late K's with newer Final Drives

Hello GAS GUY,
Yes, this is a direct bolt-on conversion for the R1200GS/GSA bikes as well.
It will also fit any of the newer K-bikes which use the same style of final drive. (You just need to stand on your head when installing because the shaft is on the wrong side...
As far as changing the suspension or effect on the final drive:
Based upon my abuse of one of these setups on my sidecar rig, I don't see it being any problem.
The centerline of the wheel assembly is NOT offset vs. the stock wheel setup.
The wheel used for the conversion has more backspace to it, which is what allows there to be enough space for the adapter, but the thickness of the adapter brings the new wheel right back to the original wheel/tire centerline of the bike!
The unsprung mass of the wheel assembly doesn't really change much.
If you compare the weight of the stock GS/GSA wheel and tire to the total weight of the new setup (adapter/wheel/tire) they are right in the same ballpark. The exact figures depend somewhat on which tires you are comparing.
-The stock GS/GSA spoked rear wheel is listed as being 13.01 pounds.
-A 150/70R17 Metzeler Tourance rear tire has a listed weight of 15.43 pounds.
That gives a total wheel/tire package weight of 28.46-lb (including valve stem).
- As you can see from this photo of an actual complete wheel/adapter assembly, including the lug nuts, stem, etc., the total weight of the new wheel AND adapter assembly is only 14.38 pounds.
- The typical tire used with this setup on the GS bikes is a 165/80R15 all-season radial. This size tire weighs in at about 17.0 pounds when new.
That gives a total package weight for the new setup of 31.38 pounds.
Less than 3 pounds difference between the two wheel/tire assemblies, and you can easily pick up more mud than that.
On my sidecar rig, I am using a different size tire with the new setup to change my overall gearing. That tire is only 13.5 pounds when new, for an total wheel/tire assembly weight of only 27.88, which is actually LESS than the stock setup!
(My winter tire is even another 1/2 pound lighter still...)
The unsprung mass of the wheel is not even CLOSE to the greatest force/load on the final drive.
The weight of the bike bearing down on the rear wheel is far and away more of a factor to loading on the final drive bearings. The unsprung mass will simply affect the reaction rate of the rear suspension.
And even there, the wheel is less than half of the total unsprung mass when you start adding up the weight of the final drive assembly itself (18.21-lb), the swingarm and torque links (8.79-lb), the driveshaft (4.65-lb), and the various pivot bearings, bolts, drive fluid, etc which adds and additional 1.86 pounds. For a total unsprung weigh of the swingarm/final drive of 33.51 pounds.
I believe that I have "torture tested" this setup with loads transmitted to the final drive above anything that you will be able to dish out. And my original final drive is still humming along happily with nearly 50,000 miles on it. (about 42,000 of those with this wheel/tire conversion installed)
When fully loaded for a trip my sidecar weighs in at close to 1,400 pounds with just myself aboard. That equates to an actual measured static rear wheel loading of about 660-lb. More than the entire weight of a stock GS bearing down JUST on the rear wheel!
Add in that a sidecar doesn't lean into turns, so that my final drive has been subjected to side-thrust loading in addition to the normal radial loads on the support bearings and you can see that I have been testing the final drive of my rig pretty hard...
(I DO like to sometimes ride the rig at a bit more 'spirited' pace...)
In addition to the on-road miles, I have ridden this rig over quite a few dusty miles of rutted/washboard gravel at speed, run it through mud, and hit whoops big enough to bottom out the suspension on more than one occation.
AND, I don't own a car, so my sidecar is my only winter transportation. Meaning my final drive has been subjected to running with below-zero lube in it, road salt thrown at the seals, and all sorts of other mean, nasty stuff.
I don't baby my bikes, and so far I have not detected any issues with this conversion!
Sorry if this reply got a bit long, but I just wanted to give you a thorough answer to your question.
I'm not weird; I'm gifted.

"Numero Uno" Armchair
Today when we think of where inventive contemporary design is manufactured, we often think of Italy. This, however, was not always the case. Wide acceptance of modern design came somewhat later in Italy than elsewhere, perhaps because of the ever-present conservative influence of the palpable Roman classical past and the slow development of the Italian economy in the twentieth century. To be sure, before World War II there were important modern designers in Italy, foremost Gio Ponti, an architect from Milan whose influence spread beyond his native country through two architecture and design magazines he founded, Domus and Stile. And the Fascist regime of Mussolini in the pre-World War II period did embrace modern architecture, unlike the Nazi regime in Germany, which consciously rejected modernism as a source of foreign, moral corruption. It was not, however, until the post-World War II era, when the Italian economy expanded rapidly, that Italian modern design achieved international recognition.
One pivotal event made consumers in the United States aware of the diversity and accomplishments of modern Italian design—the exhibition Italy at Work, which travelled to twelve venues between 1950 and 1954. The exhibition was initiated by the Art Institute of Chicago in partnership with two organizations devoted to the promulgation of Italian design, Handicraft Development Incorporated in the United States and its corresponding institution in Italy, CADMA. Italy at Work included hundreds of objects by more than 150 artisans and manufacturers and featured furniture, ceramics, glass, textiles, metalwork, jewelry, shoes, knit clothing, and industrial design. The exhibition opened at the Brooklyn Museum, and at its conclusion, when the objects were dispersed among the host institutions, the lion's share, more than two hundred items, came to the Museum.
In the second half of the twentieth century, Italy became a center for modern design. Many foreigners went there to study and work at small, adventurous firms that produced high-quality objects.

After working with 26 other states to create common standards for K-12 science education, South Dakota has decided against adopting the Next Generation Science Standards.
Only eight states have adopted the standards, and Education Secretary Melody Schopp said South Dakota will not be joining them. Her office reviewed Next Generation but decided the state would be better off bringing teachers together to write a different set of standards for the state, as the department has done in the past.
Nonetheless, Schopp on Wednesday spoke in favor of legislation that for two years would prevent South Dakota from adopting any education standards written outside of South Dakota. The House Education Committee voted 14-1 to advance Senate Bill 64 to the full House for consideration. The bill already had passed the full Senate.

ACORN v. Murphy
July 20, 2009 | Voting Rights Project
The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), most commonly known for its "motor voter" component, requires that states provide voter registration services in conjunction with the provision of public assistance benefits. Low-income citizens are less likely to own a car and are among the least likely to register to vote at motor vehicle departments, making the public assistance requirement crucial in reaching these citizens. In enacting the NVRA, Congress expressly recognized that the right to vote "is a fundamental right," and took note of the disproportionate harm to voter participation by racial minorities caused by discriminatory and unfair registration laws and procedures.
In July 2009, plaintiffs filed suit against Indiana state officials based on their failure to offer voter registration at public assistance offices in the State. The suit was brought on behalf of the class of all public assistance clients who are not registered to vote and who have been denied the opportunity to register to vote at Indiana public assistance offices. The individual named plaintiffs include ACORN, the Indiana Conference of the NAACP, and an individual public assistance recipient. Plaintiffs are represented by the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, Demos, Project Vote, the ACLU of Indiana, the NAACP, Advocates for Justice and Reform Now, and the firm of Miner, Barnhill and Galland.
This lawsuit is part of an ongoing coalitional effort by the Lawyers' Committee, Demos, and Project Vote to ensure that states fully carry out their responsibility under the NVRA to offer voter registration at public assistance offices. On the same day that the Indiana lawsuit was filed, the Lawyers' Committee and its partners filed suit against state officials in New Mexico to remedy that State's failure to comply with the NVRA (at public assistance offices and also at motor vehicle department offices). The Lawyers' Committee and its partners previously sued Missouri officials (ACORN v. Scott), which was resolved through the entry of a preliminary injunction and then a comprehensive settlement, and Ohio officials (Harkless v. Brunner), which is being litigated in the federal trial court in Ohio.
This lawsuit is at its early stages. Plaintiffs have filed a motion for the court to certify the case as a class action, state officials have filed a motion to dismiss, and discovery has not yet begun.

Feb 23, 2012Southwest Grilled Avocados
Avocados are a favorite of many, for good reason, but I would dare bet that not many have ever had them grilled. This is a recipe that a friend of mine came across while touring the country and tailgating at every NFL stadium along the way. You could say that it's been tested and proven worthy of it's lofty status among blacktop foodies, I am sure it will find favor with you as well.It's

You might be wondering where I got the idea to have smoked wings and potatoes from. Well….I had smoked chicken wings for the first time at a local restaurant and I couldn't believe how amazingly yummy they were. So, I thought we could try to make our own "smoked chicken wings" in our Smoke Vault here at Camp Chef. Now where did the potatoes come in? I've heard

This really didn't do it for me... I had high expectations after reading this review and was very disapointed with this brush. I tried it on BB creams and powder foundation but although it blended well it SHREADS a lot. This is so disapointing for what I paid compared to cheaper drug store brands this is actually worse for me.
I love MAC products but this was really really disapointing for me. I got it at the MAC store so it is legit but it shreds a lot.
It is soft and does the job but the shredding really annoys me. Also, I can blend foundation/BB cream with my hands or a sponge so this brush is not necessary for me. Waste of money :(

I bought this brush with a pack of 4 brushes - a limited edition set for 54.00$, it came with this stippling brush, a mini stippling brush, a blending brush, and a flat eyeshadow brush. All of them are very good quality, and for the price it was SUCH a steal. Normally this brush runs 45$-50$ (with or without tax) and honestly, that's ridiculous. Even though this brush is a really high quality brush, I don't think I'd ever spend that much on one brush because I'm too much of a bargain shopper. Which is why I'm SOOOOO happy I got the 4 brush set for the price of one! What a good deal! This brush is a very high quality brush - but when I first started using it, it shed - A LOT. I washed it & everything. I washed it again, and it was STILL shedding - which is kind of frustrating when you're doing your foundation. Other then that, this brush is very nice. I love that when I wash it it remains just as soft and retains it's shape. This buffs out my Studio Fix Fluid very nicely, and it's good with other products as well. Definitely a good brush and can be used for several different things.

I was very excited when my mum brought me this back from duty free and wanted to try it straight away. When I applied it a lot of the hair bristles were left on my face and that put me off at first and I thought 'this is one of the expensive stipple brushes why is this happening?' but after a couple of goes it stopped and now I am in love with it as I can use less foundation and look flawless every day in a short amount of time.
It is very pricy but it's completely worth it.

MAC #187 is the biggest beauty-disappopintment for me this year (so far)!. Positive: It´s soft and feels very nice on the skin, yes, for this reason I gave a Lipstick.
I "treated" the #187 as careful, as my other brushes which I use very often since years (MAC #116, #109 for example and others from EDM). Negative: The MAC #187 changed shape immediately after washing it for the first time and it lost a large amount of bristle (or hair- however you call it). After drying, the shape was different, lot´s of hair/bristle on the outside stood in different directions and went an bit wavy, sic!
I bought it to apply MAC Mineralize Skinfinishes or Guerlain Meteorites which didn´t work very well (the cheap Kabuki I used before was much better in comparison). I wonder because this brush has plenty of fans, if I have had a brush, that was´nt proper made, For sure, It was an original one bought at a MAC-Counter! For me, the MAC #187 is too expensive and not worth trying, I returned it and I am happy, I got my money back!

I love this brush as well I also have it in the se from my Hello Kitty kit and never bothered with them either till I got into BB cream. I noticed I was way too shiny for my liking so I went to MAC. Got some Studio Fix and this brush and omgoodness it's amazing!!! My BB stays perfect and i barely need concealer after either
~Blends flawlessly
~You can do heavy to light coverage.
~I'm shocked at how well it stiples and the swirly blend makes my powder look divine.
~I see why others love it and the coverage it gives without looking caky.
~Love how the brush hold the powder.
~The bristles stay in the brush:)
~Pricy but worth it.
~Have to wash it all the time but that's a good thing. i like to keep it as nice as possible.
Summation it really makes your powder do magic so I will repurchase when I need it and I recommend it. Especially if your healing from acne,redness,skin issues it helps cover those trouble spots really well. It's a great brush and I couldn't do without it:) It's a splurge purchase but a satisfactory one without a doubt.

Ive had this brush for a couple of years (came in a set) but never really bothered with it.
After looking at the reviews again out of boredom I thought id have a go at this stippling everyone talks about. I usually either use my fingers or a Bobbi Brown foundation brush. After applying foundation (cle de peau) I then have to apply concealer to a couple of scars I have from old spots. Well after stippling I gently went over my whole face in light circles and then went to apply the concealer - except I didnt need it! The scars were totally camouflaged. I thought this probably meant I was caked in foundation so took my mirror to a bright window to get a better look - AMAZING. It looked like I was airbrushed and that I didnt have any foundation on at all. It looked so much better than my usual technique. I am so impressed cant believe I was sitting on this little gem for years with no use.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this brush!!!! I'm very heavy handed when it comes to applying blushers and bronzers however this brush has made blush application a dream! It's especially great for heavily pigmented blushers (e.g NARS).
You can also use this brush for liquid foundation application. You simply dot the foundation all over the face and then blend blend blend. It gives the most flawless finish and makes any foundation look just like skin :)
Have had mine for 4 years and still in great condition
This brush is definitely in my all time top 5 brushes!

My brush is over five years old. I bought it on a whim and have only really learned how to use it in the past year. Even though I wash it frequently, it barely shows any wear. I have never had any problems w shedding.
It is a pretty big head, which is good for liquid and powder foundation, not so great for areas in which you want to work w a small section. It requires a v light touch, or else the product can get really packed into the brush and smooth on unevenly. If you decide to go w this brush, I encourage you to watch some of the you tube videos to learn about the proper technique. I see some folks using it to both stipple and buff. When I use it to buff, I get streaks. For stippling you want to use a v light, v patient hand and go w another brush to buff. This one really packs in the product, and I have yet to use it and create a nice finish.
Because this brush is so expensive and because this brush is MAC, I think the expectations placed on it are really high. MAC 187 is a v good brush. However, for a lot less money, Kashuk, RT, even Sigma, make comparable brushes that do the same job.

I found my new foundation brush!! This brush is not your typical foundation brush. It has a round shape to it rather than your typical flat shape. A mac makeup artist showed this to me and so far I really like it. It is great for not only applying my foundation but it is great for blending. I felt that my flat foundation brushes just applied the foundation but this brush really does do both! I think it great and my makeup goes on much smoother now.

Information for Local Government
About the Scheme
The National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme will provide Australian householders and small business with access to free recycling services for televisions and computers, printers and computer products (such as keyboards, mice and hard drives) regardless of their brand and age. The Scheme does not cover other e-waste products.
In its early years the Scheme will build on, rather than replace, existing waste management and recycling activities. However, over time it is likely the Scheme will replace existing recycling services which will reduce costs for local government and, through them, the community.
The Scheme will boost the recycling rate for television and computer products in Australia from an estimated 17 per cent in 2010 to 30 per cent in 2012-13 and 80 per cent by 2021-22. The Scheme will be funded and run by the television and computer industry, and regulated by the Australian Government under the Product Stewardship Act 2011 and the Product Stewardship (Televisions and Computers) Regulations 2011.
Local government does not have any obligations under the Regulations and the Scheme does not change state, territory or local government responsibilities in relation to regulating waste. However, there may be opportunities for councils to participate in the Scheme. For example, councils may choose to enter into partnerships or commercial arrangements with the administers of a co-regulatory arrangement to collect televisions and computers on behalf of the co-regulatory arrangement. The co-regulatory arrangement will then arrange for them to be recycled.
The first services under the Scheme, commenced in the ACT on 15 May 2012, and are expected to roll-out progressively, with reasonable access to collection services to be provided across Australia by the end of 2013.
Existing local government collection and recycling services
The Scheme will boost the recycling rate for televisions and computers and provide a long-term solution to television and computer waste.
However, there will be a continued need to collect and recycle waste outside the Scheme as it is designed to build on existing arrangements, particularly in its early years of operation.
Consultation with local government over the past two years has highlighted the importance of coordinating the Scheme with existing electronic waste collection, and to work closely with local governments on any issues that arise, including communication with householders.
Local government involvement in the Scheme
Manufacturers and importers of televisions and computers (referred to under the Scheme as liable parties ) are now required to join an approved 'co-regulatory arrangement' . Co-regulatory arrangements are membership arrangements responsible for meeting the outcomes of the Regulations, including collecting and recycling televisions and computers.
Co-regulatory arrangements may choose to select and contract service providers, such as local governments or recyclers, to operate these collection and recycling services. Local Governments that are interested in participating in the Scheme as service providers should contact the administrators of the co-regulatory arrangements in the first instance. Participation of councils in the Scheme is voluntary.
- Co-regulatory Arrangements - contact details
Some changes to existing services may be required for councils to be service providers or to partner with industry in the Scheme. For example, relevant environmental and occupational health and safety requirements must be met and fees cannot be charged to householders or small business for the collection of products under the Scheme.
Safe Work Australia is developing a Model Work Health and Safety Code of Practice for the e waste recycling industry:
Standards Australia is developing an Australian and New Standard for the collection, storage, transport and treatment of used electrical and electronic equipment:

'Real Housewives of BH' feud report: Taylor separates from hubby, Kyle and Brandy catfight [Update]
Spoiler alert! Isn't any news on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" while Bravo's shooting just that? It looks like we have another dramatic season in store for us as news escapes the production and reaches our ears.
Us reports that Taylor Armstrong has separated from Russell, her husband she kept referring to as hot stuff (though no one else saw it, proving love is indeed blind).
"They've had huge marital problems related to finances," a source tells the magazine.
You'll remember that Taylor once said there marriage seemed more like a business arrangement than a romantic one in Season 1.
In other news from the set, Eddie Cibrian's ex, Brandy Glanville, who just joined for Season 2, seems to be fighting battles on different fronts. Not only is she reportedly managing ultimatums from her ex about keeping their kids off the Bravo show, she's kicking up dirt with original queen bee, Kyle Richards.
It seems Brandy and Kyle have been going at it since shooting started and recently got into a scuffle.
"They got into a fight and Brandi lunged at Kyle," a source says. "They had to be separated by producers."
You know it's bad when Bravo actually intervenes!
Oh, Season 2: Can. Not. Wait.
[Update 6:17 p.m. ET Taylor's rep tells People the couple has not split up .]

(good stuff snipped)
yeah, you're SDL is pretty much the same with my experiences with gtk+.
in gtk:
most of the functions have absurdly long names to begin with. i know
you've seen xlib functions. imagine them with the prefix "gtk_".
there are so many objects that you end up having to call them long
names just to keep it straight, like "upper_left_radio_button"
whenever you pass upper_left_radio_button, you almost always need to
typecast it to help C with typechecking. so you almost never pass
upper_left_radio_button, you actually pass something like
GTK_OBJECT(upper_left_radio_button). 35 characters for a stupid
radio button! :-)
i can go on, but gtk programming gets very ugly very quickly. passing
data to callbacks is a headache. globals are actually very convenient
and enhance readability by an order of magnitude (as i physicst, i take
an order of magnitude very seriously ;)).
so yeah, my gtk (and ncurses) experiences are very similar to your
experience with SDL.
but some people are really insistent on this point, and i'm kind of
wondering why.

I'm planning on getting a new phone sometime soon as I feel that my skate is on its last legs. I'm looking for some suggestions of what other people are considering or should I wait it out for another few weeks/ months. Money isn't a massive issue but I'd be looking for something that will be worth the extra bucks!! All suggestions accepted.
My personal favorite as of now is the Huawei Ascend D1 Quad XL or the ZTE Grand Era as they both have Quad cores and Micro SD slots.
