The UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has announced that it will no longer process pre-planning enquiries for wind turbine developments. The CAA said that the improved awareness of aviation related issues amongst wind farm developers means its involvement in this voluntary and informal process is no longer required.
The CAA said that, following discussion with the Government-Industry Aviation Management Board and with the support of all management stakeholders (including the Department for Energy and Climate Change and RenewableUK), it has been agreed that, after the 24th December 2010, it will no longer process pre-planning enquiries unless submitted as a Scoping Opinion through a Local or National Planning Authority. As completion of the pre-planning process is not a statutory requirement, the CAA's decision will not affect the formal planning process.
A number of specialist aviation consultants are now also available to offer expert advice to interested parties. The CAA has published further information and guidance on its website, which includes all the key issues and procedures developers and the aviation industry need to be aware of, see
Andy Knill, Head of Surveillance and Spectrum Management at the CAA said: "The level of understanding of aviation related issues within the renewable energy sector has significantly improved over the past few years. Therefore, the requirement for the CAA to be involved in pre-planning of wind farm developments has reduced.
"Our general advice continues to be that developers of potential wind farms should engage with aviation stakeholders at the earliest opportunity, using the guidance provided in CAA Publication 764. Any impact on aviation can therefore be mitigated ahead of the formal planning process."

Notes to Editors:
The CAA is the UK's specialist aviation regulator. Its activities include: making sure that the aviation industry meets the highest technical and operational safety standards; preventing holidaymakers from being stranded abroad or losing money because of tour operator insolvency; planning and regulating all UK airspace; and regulating airports, air traffic services and airlines and providing advice on aviation policy from an economic standpoint.

A woman who suffered injures following an accident in West Virginia has sued both the supposedly negligent driver of a cab, along with the company that owned the cab itself. The woman claims that the cab driver, against better judgment, U-turned on a street and thereby ran into the plaintiff's car. The woman seeks to recover her medical bills, pain and suffering and other damages.
As this case illustrates, in a car accident involving a person who was driving as part of his or her work, an injured plaintiff needs to be aware that in certain circumstances, he or she may be able to impose liability on the negligent driver's employer.
For example, in this case, the injured woman seeks to hold the employer "vicariously" liable for the actions of its employee. Under West Virginia law, a person can hold an employer financially responsible for what an employee does (or fails to do) while on the clock. This is true even if the employer adequately supervised the employee and took the necessary steps to prevent an auto accident.
Also, even when for whatever reason an injured motorist cannot hold an employer "vicariously" liable for an employee's action, a company still has an obligation to the public to hire and supervise its employees carefully. If an employer negligently hires an accident-prone driver or fails to provide proper supervision of its employees, the employer may have to pay damages to an injured motorist in the event of a collision.

if you have a car on pcp/finance with them give them a call and see if they can beat/match your current deal. Just ordered myself a new Fiesta ST-2 in Spirit blue, spare wheel, style and convenience pack for the same money as i am paying for a now 9 months old, race red st-2 with no added extra's.
so give them your local dealer a call and see what they can do for you!

Need to know: Dallas Mavericks try to take down Denver Nuggets two days after 102-100 loss
Denver Nuggets (6-6) at Dallas Mavericks (9-5)
7:30 p.m. Monday, FSSW, KESN-FM (103.3), KFLC-AM (1270 in Spanish)
Click here for full TV/radio listings
Scouting the Nuggets
* The Nuggets offered some surprising comments Saturday after their 102-100 victory over the Mavericks in Denver, especially considering the teams are meeting again 48 hours later. Denver coach Brian Shaw criticized his team's second-half shot selection:
"We could have had anything we wanted because (the Mavericks) started playing zone against us from the first play of the game because I think they fear our attack, our offense," he said.
* Forward Kenneth Faried made all seven of his shots, scored 18 points and pulled down 14 rebounds, becoming just the seventh player since 1985-86 to get 18-plus points, 14-plus rebounds and at least two blocks while shooting prefectly. Faried said having to play the Mavericks again so soon "makes it harder because we were trying to send a message, especially with us going down to Dallas. We were trying to have them flustered and wondering how to slow us down, but they figured it out with that zone."
* Shaw also criticized his players' attitudes, saying, "Guys started pointing fingers at each other when they were not getting the ball."
Scouting the Mavericks
* The Saturday loss in Denver dropped them to 2-5 on the road. They are 7-0 at home, however, their best start since they went 10-0 at home to begin the 2003-04 season.

Twin Cedars Shuts Down Iowa Christian Academy 9-1
Posted By Sports On July 6, 2012 @ 5:58 am In Today's Local Sports | Comments Disabled
Hot bats and stingy pitching came together Thursday night for the Twin Cedars baseball team, as the Sabers downed Iowa Christian Academy 9-1.
Starting pitcher Drew Carlson threw four innings of three-hit baseball to earn the win, with Brent Parker coming in to close out the victory – allowing just one hit the rest of the way. Offensively, Corey Harrell was 2-for-2 with two runs scored and two walks; Parker went 2-for-3 with a double, a run scored, and two RBI; and Eric Clark slugged a triple on a 2-for-4 night that saw him also score twice and bat in a run.
Twin Cedars has now won five straight games and improves to 22-8 on the season.

Deputies: Knife, BB gun used in Bella Vista man's attack on neighbor, neighbor's wife
A 37-year-old Bella Vista man was arrested Monday evening after Shasta County Sheriff's deputies say he used a knife and BB gun to attack his neighbor following an argument.
Deputies arrested Chris Severson was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon for the attack on Chad and Janeigh Smith just after 7 p.m. on Gregory Lane, which is off Livona Lane about a mile east of E. Stillwater Way on Highway 299 just outside Redding.
Sheriff's Sgt. Jose Gonzalez said deputies responded to a reported stabbing at a home on Gregory Lane where they found Severson bleeding from cuts to his arms and neck. Next door they found the Smiths with cuts to their hands and Chad Smith with two BB's lodged in chest.
Deputies said they found surveillance video that showed Severson going onto the Smiths' lawn and throwing things at their house. The Smiths walked out of the home to confront Severson, who shot Chad Smith three times in the chest with the BB gun, Gonzalez said.
Severson also backhanded Janeigh Smith after the shooting, at which point Chad Smith and Severson began to fight and wrestle in the yard, deputies said.
During the struggle, Severson pulled a fixed blade knife and the three fought, resulting in injuries to each person, Gonzalez said.
Medics at the home treated Janeigh Smith for cuts while Chad Smith was taken to a local hospital where he was treated and released. Severson was also taken to the hospital for treatment and will be charged upon his release, Gonzalez said.

FOLSOM — An Emmy award-winning television news anchor in Sacramento is facing grand theft charges in connection with the alleged shoplifting of $2,500 worth of Coach wallets.
Television station KCRA reports that Sabrina Rodriguez, a reporter and anchor at Fox 40 News in Sacramento, turned herself into Folsom police on Thursday after a warrant was issued for her arrest.
KCRA says the warrant alleges that Rodriguez helped an accomplice steal the wallets from an outlet store in Folsom last year.
KTXL, Fox 40 News' parent station, said in a short story posted on its web site Friday that Rodriguez maintains she is innocent and has taken a voluntary leave from her job.
The Sacramento Bee says Rodriguez has worked at Fox 40 News since 2011 and was promoted to early morning anchor last year.
The Daily Republic does not necessarily condone the comments here, nor does it review every post. Please read our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before commenting.
I'm sure this is a simple misunderstanding. Ms. Rodriquez was probably just practicing her religious freedom. Who knows what the heck those folks over at FOX are thinking?Reply |
Don't know if she is innocent or guilty but I prefer to let the legal system to run its course. We could however talk about the lovely Bernie Ward or Anthony wiener or many of the left lovelies.Reply |

What Do You Take To Sleep With Wellbutrin?
Posted 29 September 2012 - 04:42 PM
Posted 29 September 2012 - 04:56 PM
I have found a good mix of zopiclone (Immovane) 5mg and .5 mg of clonazepam is enough to give me a good 8 hrs of sleep.
I might have to talk to the doctor about increasing the dosages though as we have just increased the wellbutrin.

My psychiatrist put me on 150mg of Seroquel XR and it works well for me.
FYI: For some reason it takes a long time to start working. I try to take it by 6:00pm, no later than 7:00pm. I usually go to bed around midnight. If I take it any later then 7:00pm I'm very groggy in the morning.
I haven't had luck with Trazodone, Melatonin, Ambien or Lunesta. Clonazepam works but 1) I have to take a lot of it and 2) I'm not really supposed to use it anymore.
You might ask your doctor or psychiatrist opinion on Seroquel XR if you are still having trouble.

When I went back on it this time, I just experimented with when I took the Wellbutrin to minimize the effects. For me, for some reason, I either have to take it before about 9am, or in the early afternoon for it to not keep me up at night. (I'm on the XR, so I guess it has something to do with the release of the drug in the body, and catching it at the right times)
Posted 03 December 2012 - 03:43 PM
I would ride out the insomnia and see if it subsides on its own. Now I'm hooked on sleeping aids- if I go two night without I get extremely nauseated.

Quetiapine (Seroquel) 50mg, works very well for me.
I tried it for a couple of nights. Made me go to sleep but I was sleepy the next day.
Now I am having one dose of midazolam and half of zolpidem. Works most of the nights.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 03:41 PM
The first week of Wellbutrin I needed to take Benadryl 50-75mg to sleep. The side effect though was TERRIBLE dry mouth, since both Wellbutrin and Benadryl will dry you out.
I'm afraid to try a sleeping pill because of the side effects. I hate feeling groggy in the morning... especially because I work early and in a highly stressful situation.
Posted 02 March 2013 - 11:26 AM
trazodone for me, 100 to 200 mg
Posted 14 March 2013 - 10:10 PM
Hi there. I found the insomnia wore off after a week each time I increased my dose of W, so my advice would be to ride it out. I do sometimes take melatonin.
With all this talk about not sleeping, you have better attitude to not worry somuch.
Posted 24 March 2013 - 10:13 PM
I am taking 1 mg of Xanax at night (for leg cramps and teeth clenching) and wellbutrin during the day. I find that 1 mg relaxes me enough to sleep all night... sometimes I still wake up with leg cramps but I also take hylands leg cramps PM an hour after I take the Xanax.

AMD fights Intel with next-gen "Puma" notebooks
updated 08:40 am EDT, Fri May 18, 2007
AMD Puma
Chipmaker AMD today launched one of its first clear challenges to Intel's Core platform. Codenamed "Puma," the platform is a combination mainboard and CPU which will both be much faster than today's hardware while also fine-tuning battery life. A new CPU architecture, nicknamed "Griffin," will be one of AMD's first explicitly tailored for mobile use. In contrast to the current Turion 64 X2, which is fundamentally an Athlon converted for notebook use, "Griffin" will have completely independent power levels for each processor core as well as the HyperTransport system links; the system can lower clock speeds and power draw whenever the system idles or is put into a power-saving mode.
The CPU design is at the same time faster than today's chips, AMD says. "Griffin" will use HyperTransport 3.0, which triples the peak bandwidth for especially demanding tasks like graphics. Its on-chip DDR2 memory controller is also said to be more effective while also friendlier to battery life.
The mainboard chipset for "Puma," so far called the RS790, is equally built to be faster and more efficient. Even basic systems will have access to a new integrated graphics chipset with unified shader support for DirectX 10 and OpenGL; the hardware will include a Unified Video Decoder that both greatly improves Blu-Ray/HD DVD decoding and also saves power by taking the intensive work away from the main CPU. Support for the faster PCI Express 2.0 standard will also be built-in for dedicated graphics -- including AMD's rival NVIDIA, the company notes -- and will intelligently switch back to integrated graphics to once again conserve power. DVI, HDMI, and the upcoming DisplayPort format will be explicitly supported.
Outside of graphics, AMD will also nod towards Intel's Turbo Memory with HyperFlash, a flash memory cache built on to the mainboard for speeding up boot times and responsiveness in Windows Vista and similar operating systems.
Details were still early with the announcement, but were expected to receive some clarification with a presentation at the Spring Microprocessor Forum on May 22nd. Actual shipping notebooks are planned for a mid-2008 release.

Madiba's Beemer to be auctionedComment on this story
BMW South Africa has donated former president Nelson Mandela's BMW 7 Series Security Vehicle to the 46664 Mandela Day School Library project.
The customised sedan, fitted with a blue-light grill, will be auctioned in the coming months and the proceeds will go towards supplying fully-stocked container libraries to disadvantaged schools in Johannesburg.
The office of the former president returned the car to BMW at the end of its service life; it has since been restored to an immaculate condition and is currently on display at the Franschoek Motor Museum.
A private auction will decide the next destination of this car, once the official transport of arguably the most famous and revered statesman of our generation. Bidder are expected to include serious car collectors as well as museums worldwide.
Robert Coutts, CEO of the 46664 Bangle Initiative, said: "We have to balance the preservation of the history surrounding this car with the commercial reality of funding the next phase of the 46664 Mandela Day School Library project.
"We're hoping the car will find a home in a museum in South Africa its history is preserved appropriately in our own country - but if it realises the price we anticipate, we'll be able to deliver a library every six weeks for a year."
BMW South Africa managing director Bodo Donauer said: "Ninety percent of South African schools do not have a library. That's a huge gap in the resources necessary to educate young children, and we're happy to contribute to this initiative."
As part of the agreement, the first two libraries will be placed at schools in the communities near BMW's plant at Rosslyn, north of Pretoria, where most of BMW's workers live and where their children go to school.

UMW meeting
The Sept. 13 Eudora United Methodist Women's meeting was called to order by President Elva Kindred. Louise Weeks gave the devotion, "Building a Culture of Peace." Her scripture was taken from Paul's letter to Timothy.
Fern Long then gave a talk "Dedicated Christians," from a book published in 1914 about the people and the circuit preachers of that day and the hardships they endured to spread the word of God. It was about the Evangelical Association before the United Methodist or the United Brethren were in existence.
Eudora resident Jean Reynolds, who is district president of the United Methodist Women, gave a talk on the national and international women's conference she attended in Anaheim, Calif. She talked about the different speakers and programs at the conference.
Cards were signed and sent to members with health problems -- Eva Belle and Carrol Gerstenberger, Clarice Morriss and Gertrude Coon.
The following list of officers were read and will be installed in December: Elva Kindred, president; Amye Scott, treasurer; Judy Hundley, program resources secretary; JoAnn Becker, cards, gifts and flowers; Jean Hall, social action; Bertha Nichols, membership, nurture and outreach; Susie Dickerson, spiritual growth; Arlene Lawson, publicity; and Norma Gienau, local church responsibility.
The meeting closed with the president and members reciting the UMW benediction.
Refreshments were served by Elizabeth Woods and Louise Weeks.

My problem is that I'm apparently using too many tasks (threads?) that call a method that queries a SQL Server 2008 database. Here is the code:
for(int i = 0; i < 100000 ; i++)
Task.Factory.StartNew(() => MethodThatQueriesDataBase()).ContinueWith(t=>OtherMethod(t));
After a while I get a SQL timeout exception. I want keep the actual number of threads low(er) than 100000 to a buffer of say "no more than 10 at a time". I know I can manage my own threads using the ThreadPool, but I want to be able to use the beauty of TPL with the ContinueWith.
I looked at the
Task.Factory.Scheduler.MaximumConcurrencyLevel but it has no setter.
How do I do that?
Thanks in advance!
I just tested the
LimitedConcurrencyLevelTaskScheduler class (pointed out by Skeet) and still doing the same thing (SQL Timeout).
BTW, this database receives more than 800000 events per day and has never had crashes or timeouts from those. It sounds kinda weird that this will.

Jury deliberations in Phil Spector's murder trial remain suspended as the judge struggles to help the deadlocked panel reach a verdict.
With jurors split 7-5, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Larry Paul Fidler is listening to detailed legal arguments by lawyers over how to give the panel a new instruction after he withdraws a special legal instruction that some panelists cited as a point of dispute when they announced the impasse.
The instruction concerns the prosecution's theory that Spector held a gun to actress Lana Clarkson's mouth, and that the weapon discharged, causing her death.
It says jurors must find Spector committed that act in order to convict him of second-degree murder.
Fidler said yesterday he reread the instruction and decided it should not have been given because it misstated the law.
Some legal experts say the change could make a conviction easily reversible on appeal.

LG cuts price of 55-inch curved OLED TV from $15,000 to $7,000
updated 02:47 pm EST, Mon February 10, 2014
Price cut an attempt to grow OLED television market, claims LG
LG has lowered the cost of its curved OLED television in the United States, in an attempt to improve demand for OLED devices. The 55EA9800, a curved OLED Full HD television that went on sale in the US through Best Buy in July last year, is being cut down in price from the initial $15,000 down to $8,000, with an extra $1,000 rebate bringing the price down to $7,000.
Weighing 37.5 pounds and measuring 4.3mm (0.17-inches) thick, the 55-inch television is concave in design in order to minimize distortion at the edges of the screen when viewed from straight ahead. The 55EA9800 uses a four-color pixel system that employs an extra white sub-pixel for fine-tuning colors, something which helped the display gain a THX Display Certification.
LG 55EA9800 curved OLED HDTV
"Our goal is to grow the US OLED TV market by making OLED TVs more affordable. And this is another step in that direction," said LG Electronics USA CEO William Cho, according to CNet. The company has also confirmed the television will be available until the middle of this year, despite the introduction of other similar televisions the company launched at CES last month, including a 77-inch Ultra HD model.
Earlier this year, LG advised it would be expanding its production of OLED panels, after completing new television plants in Brazil, Poland, China, and Thailand. A new facility in Mexico for the creation of OLED TVs destined for the US market is expected to start production sometime this year.

More criminal charges have been filed in connection with the operation of the Bad Boys Toys store in North Londonderry Township, the Lebanon County District Attorney's office said Friday.
John D. Herr, 38, whose last known address was 14 Barrington Court, Palmyra, was charged Thursday with operation of a corrupt organization, conspiracy, dealing in proceeds of unlawful activities and a variety of drug offenses, including delivery and possession of controlled substances.
The charges are the result of an investigation that began in September last year. The Lebanon County District Attorney's office raided the Bad Boys Toys, 1010 E. Main St., in December, arrested its owners and closed the shop.
Officials described Bad Boys Toys as a multimillion-dollar business and said several truckloads of merchandise, including synthetic drugs and drug paraphernalia, worth thousands of dollars were confiscated during the raid.
Authorities alleged that Herr was an employee of Bad Boys Toys, which originally opened in North Londonderry Township in December 2008. Additional stores were opened in Elizabethtown, Lancaster County, and Lemoyne, Cumberland County.
Herr was charged with possession with intent to deliver drugs that included so-called bath salts and synthetic marijuana, the district attorney's office said Friday. He also was charged with possession with intent to deliver drug paraphernalia.
Police are looking for Herr, also known as Shawn Herr, and anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to contact the North Londonderry Township police at 717-272-2054.
The district attorney's office also charged Chris A. Neal, 42, and Michelle R. Neal with corrupt organizations, dealing in proceeds of unlawful activities, theft and theft by deception.
Chris Neal lives at 2819 Horseshoe Pike. Michelle Neal is currently in the Lebanon County prison on a probation violation.
The Neals owned and operated 422 Auto Sales, 1000-1010 E. Main St., next door to the Bad Boys Toys store. Chris Neal was also part-owner of the Bad Boys store, according to the district attorney's office.
Police, PennDOT and the attorney general's office received numerous complaints about business practices of 422 Auto Sales during the past several years, the district attorney's office said.
About 50 customers contacted officials about warranty complaints, title work not submitted to PennDOT or transferred months after the transaction occurred and deposits that were withheld from customers, according to the district attorney's office.
Customers also complained that fraudulent representations were made on PennDOT paperwork about the purchase price of vehicles or the value of trade-in vehicles. PennDOT documents requiring the signature of a notary were also forged by people not authorized to complete the transactions, the district attorney's office alleged.
In addition, the Neals were accused of submitting fraudulent paperwork to the district attorney's office, claiming a lien on a vehicle seized in the drug investigation that did not exist.
The district attorney's office also alleged that funds from the Bad Boys Toys store, which allegedly was selling controlled substances, flowed through the 422 Auto Sales accounts and was used for both businesses.
Preliminary hearing dates for the Neals have not been set.

One of the key tenets of investing with an asset allocation model is that bonds and stocks working together will help reduce the volatility of your portfolio. Recent history has shown that while stocks crashed, bonds soared and those fortunate enough to hold them generally did better than those invested entirely in equities.

Delusions Of An Easy Life
One of the things that used to bother me the most in high school, was the rampant sense of entitlement amongst student athletes used. In my youth, jocks seemingly could get away with anything. It didn't seem fair at all, but that's how it was. I wonder if the athletic kids today still enjoy that kind of social priviledge?
Frame 1
Zoya seems puzzled.
Why bother with sports?
Frame 2
Zoya stares at a now gothed-out and androgynous Sasha with ravenous lust as Dmitri talks.
Because, life is easier when you're an athlete.
Frame 3
Zoya stops paying attention to Dmitri and fawns over Sasha. Sasha plays a violin as he speaks.
You're delusional. Life is never easy.

Women's backpacks

I am looking for some advice on women's backpacks i've done quite a lot of research on backpacks so far but cannot seem to find anything suitable for my needs. I am looking for a backack around the 55-65L range with a daypack (65L max inc the day pack) but not top loading, i want one that opens right out. I also need one with zippers so it can be locked, not a drawstring, and preferably it needs to be waterproof material (or at least have a rain cover) I also would like it if it was specifically designed for a woman as i am really short so i need something that is going to sit just right. I've looked on Millets, Blacks and Oswald Baileys websites as well as doing individual searches for makes such as The North Face, Osprey, Karimoor, Berghaus but nothing really so far has seemed to fit all those requirements, i didn't think i had a particularly tall order. Anyway, any input would be fantastic! Thanks

I was wondering something similar. I didn't think I was being picky, but so far I haven't managed to find the right backpack. I'm traveling only for 1 month and a half, so I thought to take only a 45L + 10, because I know myself and I know if I have more space I will end up filling it up with endless unnecessary shopping!
As per the daypack, I didn't think to carry a 20L, but something much smaller, more like a should bag, with space for the guide, a small notebook, a scarf and the odd snack. Is it too light???

That Karimoor 50-70L one does look good, the others are all far to massive. I am a little confused though, does it come in like 50L and 70L sizes or what i don't get that it doesn't explain it properly. Or is it 50L with 20L daysack in which case ARGH i think 70L is too big!!!
Shadek, have you looked on the websites like Milletts etc, i seem to think i saw some around the 45L size, not sure if that was with or without the daypack though. I will also be taking like a shoulder bag/handbag as well for everyday use but the actual 'daypack' i would use for like tours and excursions and stuff like that.

Millets has one called Amazon 45+15 and its designed for women, my girlfriend bought one last week. It was the last one in the shop and in the sale so not sure how many they have left. I looked on their website and couldnt find it on there either so mabye go visit one and you might be in luck.

Tatonka did have one in the 45L range with a carrying system designed for women's frames, when adjusted properly i felt almost 'no' strain on my shoulders, compared to other brands/models. bought it 6 years ago so not sure if Tatonka still carries that model.
instead of a daypack i've carried a shoulder bag - zip closure + strap long enough to sling across my body instead of hanging from one shoulder (deter snatch thieves). enough space for notebook, camera, maps, bottle of water, foldable umbrella, etc.

Cathedral City Councilman Greg Pettis and California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom pose for photographs during the Southern California Association of Governments regional conference in Palm Desert. / Barrett Newkirk, The Desert Sun
PALM DESERT — Cathedral City Councilman Greg Pettis was named the new president of the Southern California Association of Governments on Thursday during the groups annual regional conference in Palm Desert.
Pettis was next in line for the groups one-year presidency after serving as first vice president. His new position was approved in a general vote for all of SCAGs new officers during the general assembly meeting at the JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort and Spa.
During the events luncheon, Pettis said he wants to expand SCAGs employee wellness program and was entering a friendly weight-loss competition with the groups executive director, Hasan Ikhrata. Pettis told The Desert Sun he also wants to expand the groups outreach to labor groups.
Pettis is believed to be only the second SCAG president from the Coachella Valley in the regional government groups 48-year history. In the coming year, Pettis said he wants to make sure more valley cities benefit from SCAG grant programs to support planning efforts.
In todays economy, cities just dont have that kind of money to put into planning efforts, Pettis said. So if somebody is willing to say, OK, Ill give you a quarter of a million dollars, go ahead and do your plan. Then we can at least get that done.
ALSO AT THE CONFERENCE: Gavin Newsom advocates ground-up approach on economy
In the past five years, Pettis has traveled extensively across the country for quasi-governmental groups such as SCAG, racking up at least $92,000 on his city-issued credit card for the trips, according to an investigation by The Desert Sun. As president of SCAG, his travel is likely to be at least as much.
Pettis maintains that all travel expenses charged to his city-backed MasterCard are reimbursed to the city by the groups.
According to documents provided to The Desert Sun by Cathedral City Administrative Services Director Tami Scott, the groups reimbursed the city $49,000. The city also budgeted $13,800 from the general fund to assist with Pettis travel expenses. That left $29,000 in charges to Pettis city-issued MasterCard unaccounted for.
INVESTIGATION: See the documents and read more about Pettis spending
When interviewed at Thursdays meeting, Pettis declined to comment on the story or calls from members of the citys finance committee to amend the citys credit card policy. He instead directed questions to City Manager Andy Hall.
Hall said although hed received one call from a local business owner about the citys credit card rules, no one from the finance committee had contacted him with concerns.
I think that we properly track the credit cards of the council members, Hall said. I think the question people are asking is should council members have credit cards. Thats a question that the council will have to consider.
Palm Desert Mayor Jan Harnik said during the conference that Pettis travel spending had not raised doubts about whether he should assume the SCAG presidency. She credited Pettis for being an advocate for the Coachella Valley, and specifically mentioned his lobbying to get a valley passenger rail line added to a statewide plan.
He shows up. He works, Harnik said of Pettis. We need our voice heard in the Coachella Valley and dont want to be left out of the big picture.
In his speech during the conference luncheon, Pettis told the crowd of hundreds of city officials from across Southern California to take pride in the work they do.
We do have a responsibility to serve in an ethical and honest manner, he said.
But we shouldnt feel defensive to our residents, our colleagues and certainly not the media for what we do and the time we take from our families and our jobs to service our city, our state and our nation.
In interviews with The Desert Sun during its investigation, Pettis said he charges the travel costs to his city-issued credit card because he filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy in August 2010 and only has one credit card that he shares with his father, who lives with him.
Pettis bankruptcy documents list more than $500,000 in liabilities, including five student loans and more than 50 credit cards.
In addition to lobbying for the rail line, Pettis wrote on his Facebook page that the trips hes participated in for the organizations have brought in millions of dollars to help offset the cost of sewers in the Cove, Dream Homes and 35th Avenue neighborhoods; the Date Palm and four other new freeway interchanges in the Coachella Valley; the state Route 91 freeway; shuttles for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts and Stagecoach festivals; and alternative fuel stations and vehicles.
California state Controller John Chiang attended Thursdays SCAG luncheon along with Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom.
Chiang, who has made public accountability and transparency his top platform issues, told The Desert Sun he was not familiar with the papers story on Pettis credit card use, but said elected officials need to ensure theyre spending money on travel in a way that benefits their communities.
You want to make sure you maximize the value of that expenditure, Chiang said.

text: Napolitano: The Border Is More Secure Than Ever And crime is down in border states, too By Kevin Spak, Newser User Posted Jun 24, 2010 9:13 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (70) (Newser) – Janet Napolitano pushed back against immigration alarmists yesterday, even as she touted the the White House's latest efforts to secure the border. The Obama administration will deploy an unmanned aerial drone in Texas, and allow local police communities to temporarily "deploy" to assist the National Guard along the border, the Washington Post reports. But Napolitano said there was no crisis, asserting that the "border is as secure now as it has ever been," despite the people "looking to score political points" by suggesting otherwise. "The numbers tell the story, and they do not lie," she said: violent crime is down on the US side of the border, while seizures of illegal weapons, drugs, and cash are up. The new measures should only improve things. The UAV in Texas, incidentally, ends a showdown with Republican Sen. John Cornyn, who had blocked the confirmation of the FAA's deputy director until his state got a drone. He now says he'll allow a vote.

SACRAMENTO — Jamming major bills through the Legislature at the last minute with little if any time for review has been an ongoing source of frustration for some lawmakers, especially minority Republicans.
The practice has been used often on budget bills, forcing lawmakers to vote on spending issues with long-term consequences without having the ability to actually read what's in them. That would change under legislation being proposed by two lawmakers.
The identical bills by Democratic Sen. Lois Wolk of Davis and Republican Assemblywoman Kristin Olsen of Modesto would require all legislation to be in print and online 72 hours before it comes to a vote. Both bills would be constitutional amendments and would have to be approved by the voters.
To get on the ballot, SCA10 or ACA4 need a two-thirds vote in the Legislature.
"When bills are introduced at the last minute and voted on minutes or hours later, that's just bad public policy," Olsen said.

COLLIER COUNTY, Fla. -- Boo Boo the escaped grizzly bear cub has been caught by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Friday.
The grizzly cub escaped Tuesday from his enclosure at A Grizzly Experience, a licensed exhibit in Golden Gates Estates.
Boo Boo has been returned to his owner animal trainer Dexter Osborn.
"We're very happy that we located the bear and will be able to return it safely to its home," said Capt. Mitts Mravic, area supervisor for the FWC.
Neighbors reported seeing the bear on Thursday night, Mravic said. FWC focused its effort in that same area and were able to locate and tranquilize the bear.
The FWC is investigating how Boo Boo was able to escape.
Mravic said FWC investigators will work with the local prosecutor to see if any charges apply.

Another week means a whole new set of business headlines to cover in the Business Blitz here at Extreme John! Today I'll cover a number of small business tips which include: New Net Neutrality Rules Become Official, How to Use Social Media to Build a Following — And a Business, 5 Blogging Mistakes And A State of Wonder and Do Entrepreneurs Need to Be Crazy?
Hot Business News For September 26, 2011
First up this morning: New Net Neutrality Rules Become Official. The new FCC rules that were approved in December have officially been entered in to the Federal register and will go in to effect on November 20th. What do these new rules mean? Well one thing that they will do is prevent fixed broadband providers from blocking access to specific sites and applications. What does this mean for you? Nothing if you're a customer to a wireless provider but if you use cable, fiber or DSL it means that you will now have access to all lawful content.
Also in news this morning: How to Use Social Media to Build a Following — And a Business. You know that I am all about social media so seeing this article caught my attention particularly since it focuses on building a following rather than how to hit social media. This article covers a specific example of a business that built itself through the use of social media. Are you using social media to its fullest extent?
Next up this morning: 5 Blogging Mistakes And A State of Wonder. This article caught my attention because I am always interested to see what other bloggers have to say in terms of how they define "mistakes." So just what are the mistakes defined in this article? "It's not just content, it's writing," "all people love stories" and "lighten up and read for more fun."
Last up this morning: Do Entrepreneurs Need to Be Crazy? If you didn't already know from my all too popular straight jacket image I can be a little crazy, so when I saw the title of this article I had to check it out. This article covers three "disorders" that are believed to popularly plague entrepreneurs including: hypomania, delusions of grandeur and narcissism. Okay, so this article wasn't quite what I expected but I have to say it was pretty interesting regardless. I'm not sure I agree completely but it did make for a good read.
Parting Shots
So what was my favorite article from this morning? 5 Blogging Mistakes And A State of Wonder. Why? Not only was it a well written piece but it also included some great points.

Probably very few of you have heard of it, cause I don't think it's out in the states yet... but I was hoping this excellent Romanian film, 4 months, 3 weeks, 2 days would be nominated in the foreign film category. Of course I am biased, being Romanian myself, but - it really was a moving film that I felt well portrayed the difficulties women faced during communism (where abortion was outlawed and it was difficult to get birth control). And it won the Palme d'Or at Cannes, so there are other people out there who thought it was good! If you have a chance to see it, I encourage you to go. Don't be put off by the subtitles - plus if you understand Italian or Portuguese, probably you will understand a lot of the Romanian language because it's similar.

WHY ARE YOU COMMENTING ON MOVIES YOU GUYS HAVEN'T EVEN SEEEEEN!! people, commenting isn't necessary. if you don't know what youre talking about then don't say anything. comments: "i havent seen any of these movies but..." are annoying. as someone who has seen all of them.. Id say the ongoing snub that Oscar has against Ridley Scott is unwarranted, as American Gangster should be up there (and isn't at all). Also undermentioned is 3:10 to Yuma. Why are there no Asian movies mentioned in the foreign films? I mean, there were so many great ones to choose from this year! Lastly, I think we should all be honest and admit we're happy to see Angelina isn't there.
nikecold 7 years
Now I haven't watched almost any of these movies, but I agree that Tim Burton, Christian Bale and Ben Foster are underrated. As for Johnny Depp, how many times are they going to nominate the man and not give him anything? Jesus, he's amazing I can't believe he's never won. Also I haven't watched hairspray but the trailers are good enough for me to say they probably should've given the makeup nomination Norbit (WTF I know great makeup but they always nominate Eddie Murphy movies in this category) got to Hairspray. Also, am I the ONLY HUMAN BEING on this planet who hated Enchanted?!!!
Kazo 7 years
Hello?! No love for Hairspray!!! That is the biggest snub of all. I can see why it didn't get any noms for acting as the cast was huge and most of the performances were fairly quirky. But what about direction or costume or set design or makeup? Or original score and song? I can't beleive that Enchanted got three noms for original song and they couldn't even nominate 'Come so far, Got so far to go'. Bullshit. That's all I'm saying! Also, why all the love for Michael Clayton? That movie was so convinced of it's own brilliance, it was boring and confusing.

Keira and James for Atonement and Tim Burton for Sweeney Todd (I can kind of see it not being nominated for BP but seriously, he did amazing things with that film and totally deserved at least a nomination for Directing).

3:10 to YUMA got totally robbed. The movie single-handedly breathed new life in to the western genre and the stars (Christian Bale, Russell Crowe, who they seem bent on ignoring after his wins a few years ago, and of course, Ben Foster) deserved some recognition for their hard work and wonderful film. I am so upset on this one. I hate westerns and I LOVED THIS MOVIE! Oh and Depp gets love for Sweeney (which was fabulous), but no more love for the final Pirates.... such a shame. .

yiddidea- I agree 100%! Ben Foster is such an amazing talent that needs to be recognized soon! I used to think it was just me (I've got a thing for boys that have a little bit of crazy going on behind their eyes...), but a lot of people have commented on how awesome he was in 3:10 so I feel justified :) Katiefrog- don't be afraid to see Atonement because of the book- trust me, it totally does it justice. I loved both the book and the movie, if you want some more reassurance, you can look at my Book to Film comparison here: http://teamsugar.com/group/65258/blog/912981

@Katiefrog I've seen both Juno and Hard Candy. Page's performance in Juno--sarcastic and witty but with a heart of gold--stands miles apart in my mind to her in Hard Candy. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed the idea of Hard Candy but found her performance lacking believability. Either way she is still one of the most talented young actresses out there today.

Sarah Polley's direction in Away From Her. This was one of the most beautiful movies I have seen in ages.
Katiefrog 7 years
I haven't seen any of these movies but I know initially there was a lot of buzz around Atonement that seems to have died down significantly. I love the book so I'm afraid to see it. I haven't seen Juno but I'm skeptical about Ellen Page. I saw her in Hardy Candy and I have seen parts of Juno, and I feel like she is just playing a wise-cracking, sarcastic teen again. In Hard Candy I really felt like she did come across as authentic...I don't know how to explain it but it really felt like a performance. Maybe if I saw all of Juno I would feel differently.

Russell Crowe and Christian Bale were fantastic in 3:10, but Ben Foster outshone them all. He was phenomenal and he hasn't been recognized once this awards season, not even with a nom. I'm sooo annoyed by this! :IRK: :rant: :mob:

'Winston Legacy' diamond sets auction record
Geneva--A 101.73-carat pear-shaped diamond sold for $26.7 million at Christie's Geneva on Wednesday, setting a new world auction record for a colorless diamond.
Jewelry and watch company Harry Winston, which recently was acquired by Swatch Group, purchased the D color, flawless diamond and, as is the tradition with large, important stones, gave it a name: the "Winston Legacy."
Christie's had estimated the price of the diamond "in the region of $20 million."
Overall, Christie's May 15 sale of Magnificent Jewels totaled $102.1 million, the highest result ever for a various-owner jewelry auction at Christie's. Twenty lots sold for more than $1 million, with record prices also set for diamonds, pearls and sapphires.
The auction was sold 86 percent by lot and 93 percent by value.
A single-strand pearl necklace with pearls measuring between 13.7 to 10.4 millimeters sold to an anonymous buyer for $8.5 million, setting a world auction record for a single-strand natural pearl necklace.
Diamantaire Laurence Graff placed the winning bid for a 26.24-carat oval-shaped, D color potentially flawless diamond ring, shelling out $4.5 million, or $170,200 per carat.
World auction records also were set for a pair of pearl ear pendants ($2.4 million), per carat for a sapphire ($3.5 million for a 19.88-carat Kashmir sapphire) and for a red diamond ($3.3 million for a 1.92-carat fancy red, VS2 diamond ring).
"World record prices were set … thereby firmly establishing the international appetite for the most beautiful gems and jewels," said Rahul Kadakia, head of jewelry at Christie's Switzerland and the Americas.


text: WWII POW's Treasured Ring Finds Its Way Home After 1.5 years in prison camp, David Cox traded it for food By Kate Seamons, Newser Staff Posted Aug 19, 2013 12:06 PM CDT STORY COMMENTS (11) (Newser) – Last week, David Cox Jr. opened a package that had been sent to Raleigh, NC, from Germany. In it was a ring—and with it an amazing story. The gold aviator's ring had belonged to the 67-year-old's father, David Cox, who had been given it by his parents in celebration of his Army Air Corps commission in 1942. Within the year Cox was deployed to Europe, and the AP reports that his plane was shot down over Kassel, Germany, on July 28, 1943. He parachuted into a rose garden, was captured, and ended up in the POW camp immortalized in The Great Escape before marching, in January 1945, to Stalag VII-A. There, faced with bug-infested soup and bread and little hope, Cox traded it to an Italian POW for a few chocolate bars. The camp was liberated on April 28 of that year, and Cox returned to North Carolina, where he spoke little about the war—but spoke wistfully about the ring, which he treasured enough that he had an exact replica made. It finally made its way home thanks to the arrival of an American couple in the Bavarian village of Hohenberg. Last month they met 64-year-old Martin Kiss, whose family was given the ring by a Russian solider after the war, ostensibly in exchange for room and board. Kiss knew from the inscription ("Mother & Father to David C. Cox Greensboro, NC," along with Cox's birthdate and the current year) that it belonged to an American, and with the help of the Americans and the Internet, was able to track down Cox via a 2005 master's thesis from North Carolina State University written by Cox's granddaughter's husband—which mentioned the ring. Soon after that, it was back on US soil.
