They get about 90 minutes of water twice a week. The flowers are beautiful little purple five pointed, inverted stars. Butterflies seem to like them. They survive quite well in the ground here in Titusville, FL. The soil is sandy based. We have a lot of big trees, so the leaves drop and provide a natural mulch.

Parles vous Francois? Sprache de Deutche?
As you can see I am not any good at either.
I have been speaking Greek and English (and BASIC and C) for as long as I can remember and I've decided that it might be jolly fun to expand the repartoire and pick up a couple of new languages. French and German .. as an English speaker I'm halfway there already.
Has anyone here ever learned a new language before? As a 'mature ager' I mean. How did you find the experience? What is a good way - or a not so good way - of going about it? I am thinking of using podcasts, at least until I find some native speakers to spar with. Not really able to afford proper lessons at this point.
I seem to recall reading that we have a polyglot on this forum somewhere, but I can't remember who it was ....

Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to DDRinWA
What a shame on Apple for not offering a fix with their products. It is astounding that the fix for many of us with MBA connectivity problems is to buy a competitor product. Perhaps this will be the wake up that Apple needs to analyze the MBA wifi connection issues and find a solution. Just glad to have a choice now.
Yes, I'm sure the Surface has issues but wifi connection is not one of them. I bought my MBA to create, access, edit and sync files across my home wifi. The Surface does that. Anything I do on the MBA requires me to move the files over a USB thumb drive.

Yes, I've seen the AWESOME Win8 and even installed it on my other PCs. I got the beautiful Surface Tablet too. Total freedom. You don't have to follow Apple blindly. Worthy competition now available.

Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to mt granny
Are you for real - it is CR-P. Windows 8 is even worse. If it was going to be any good Microsoft would not be releasing Office for ios & android. It still has rubbish legacy code from 20 years ago stuck in there and you will get more frustrated with that than the MBA. I posted a solution to my similar problem 18 months ago and have never lost a connection since. It involved deleting the automatic connection and creating a new connection. Get rid of automatic dns details and fill in manually. Turn of wep etc. Then on your router fix wireless to channel 11 or 12 and it should all work. As i say never had a problem since either at home or when away. Hope it helps, but satisfy yourself with W8 first and you will soon realise its Steve Ballmer bull--it :-)

Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to robbiegraham
Yeah because it's not like Apple products are supposed to "Just work".... oh wait....
The Air is garbage plain and simple, you shouldn't have to go fiddling with settings on both the laptop and your router to make it work, no other Apple product requires you to mess with your router. Apple needs to recall these plain and simple.
Windows 8 is Windows 7 with a new Metro interface (that can be turned off) and Windows 7 is a solid OS. So yeah, Surface is a solid machine as well, it just lacks apps, but that will come with time.
myriapod Nov 9, 2012 8:06 AM
Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to robbiegraham
Wifi problems are gone since 1 year ago, if you followed tips posted on this topic you'd find a solution.
Issues are related not only on Mac system software (now patched form Apple) but to peripherals we/you use every day,
Than if you think WIN8 and Surface gives you freedom (?) it's ok but , you are on WRONG forum,
go to microsoft.com websites and have fun...
swolbynos Nov 9, 2012 8:13 AM
Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to myriapod
this is a load of bull. They are not gone, there are many different types of wifi issues with the 2012 macbook airs, all of which have been reported in this thread and very few of them have been addressed. It simply has a weak antenna in it and there's no fixing that. My wifi works for a while but drops connection often and I have to fiddle with it to get it to connect again, not completely unusable but it's inexcusable for sure. None of my other devices (apple or not) drop connection when it does.
I have no peripherals with my macbook air, just the air, no bluetooth mice, etc. Nothing. so don't try to blame it on that.

Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to swolbynos
I Agree totally.n I was trying to offer a workaround on my previous post which worked for me. Should not have to considering every other mac, ipad, iphone all work with no problems. Tim Cooke should get his digit out of himself and kick somebody in the ***. This is much worse than "maps" in iOS.

Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to gcrump
Apple also had horrible wifi issues with the iMac - of which I no longer own. I went Apple crazy about 2 years ago and despite loving IOS devices - I have had more headaches with my Apple products than products running windows. It is a true shame Apple can not get a handle on this - having products that cannot do the main thing they are intended (connect to wifi) and this the Internet reliably has cost Apple customers and will continue to do so. I for one am also on the verge of crossing back over to Microsoft completely - for my sanity and to teach Apple a lesson. If enough people who are disgusted with Apple's product quality say good bye with their wallets - Apple will fix the issues.
swolbynos Nov 9, 2012 8:21 AM
Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to accordguy0325
Amen, it's sad that despite paying a "premium" to own their products we are stuck with sub-par hardware that can't even do the basic tasks it was designed for. I honestly can't recall a single windows based laptop or netbook that I had wifi connectivity issues with.
rar624 Nov 9, 2012 8:28 AM
Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to swolbynos
Do Apple employees monitor this forum? There's clearly an issue with the MacBook Air's wifi and it seems like a large number of people are facing the same issue.
Perhaps if all of us take to Twitter and link to this forum, Apple might start to take notice? I just tweeted a few quotes from some of the comments. I encourage others to do so as well.
(Of course Apple doesn't have a Twitter account, as that would make it too easy for customers to give valuable feedback to them.)

i manage more than 70 macs in my lab, from G5 models to latest, i found some problems on MBA 2010 on 10.6.8
that i solved simply
- upgrading System
- replace some old hardware for example old AP's.
- WIFI-N AP's, WPA2 keys
- Correct DNS parameters
All issues gone on my 3 MBA 2010-2012 .... feel free to post your problems maybe i can help you.
swolbynos Nov 9, 2012 8:36 AM
Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to myriapod
Already told you.
Wifi is flaky. It drops often and i have to try over and over to get it to connect. Once it connects it's usually ok for a while, until it drops again. OS is fully updated.
This is both at my Work and Home. I'm not replacing any hardware. All of my other devices are 100% fine. The air is junk, quit trying to defend it. maybe it's not all of them maybe some bad batches, No clue. But the machine I have and that multiple other folks in this thread have are terrible hardware. Apple techs have admitted it's a weak antenna. Search around you'll find accounts of this. Apple knows about it, there is just nothing they can do short of admitting fault and recalling the device (not gonna happen).

Re: WiFi Issues With MacBook Air in response to myriapod
RE: "if you followed tips posted on this topic you'd find a solution."
OK there are 5+ Discussions on the WIFI probems. This one alone has 42 pasges of posts.
I myself have spent months reading and trying them to no avail. It they had worked I would not still be interested in this Discussion. I have spent nearly 8K in buying Apple products. WIth that kind of investment I am not easily going to give up on a solution. I can't even begin to figure out how many 100's of hours I have spent on reinstalling, upgrading, updating, reconfiguring, & tweaking my MBA. And it has been in the hands of Apple Repair Technicians for 3-5 days on 2 occasions. I have reached the end of my limit on expecting the wifi to "just work" on my MBA.
It's my choice- I am NOT going to spend more time and money on this issue. I have turned to another product to replace my MBA.
I am very happy for those MBA users that found a solution. I am very empathetic with the MBA users that, like me, have not.
I am now in a difficult position of deciding what path to go in the future. All my family's other Apple products "just work" (iMac, MacMini, Apple TV, 4 iTouches, 2 iPads, 3 iPhones). Why shouldn't I expect my MBA to do the same?

La. police at a loss for words
Copyright 2006 The Times-Picayune Publishing Company
NEW ORLEANS, La. — Slidell police Lt. Kevin O'Neill was dispatched to the City Motel recently to investigate a series of 911 calls in which the caller kept hanging up without saying a word.
He arrived to find several men with puzzled expressions huddled around the phone in their room.
"I asked them, 'What's going on? Why do you keep calling 911?'" O'Neill said.
One of the men launched into a lengthy explanation -- in Spanish.
Unable to understand what he was saying, O'Neill did what any veteran police officer would do: He called his wife.
"I asked her to talk to these guys on the phone and try to find out what the problem was," he said.
Essie O'Neill, who lived in Panama for six years as a child and is fluent in Spanish, quickly determined that the men were migrant workers from Guatemala who were trying to call home using a calling card that included the digits 911.
"They were just feeling homesick and wanted to talk to their families," said Essie O'Neill, a volunteer Police Department interpreter whose services are suddenly in high demand with the influx of Spanish-speaking workers helping to rebuild flood-ravaged homes.
Before Hurricane Katrina, her help was needed about once a month. Now she's called upon two or three times a week.
She's been so busy that police Chief Freddy Drennan is seeking fresh recruits to share the workload, signing up more than two dozen interpreters who speak Español.
"Before the storm, we had a small Hispanic population that was pretty much bilingual, but now we have a lot of people who only speak Spanish," Drennan said. "We're facing some interesting times, and we're not the only ones."
A growing issue
Law enforcement agencies throughout the New Orleans area and across the Gulf South are facing a language barrier formed by the post-Katrina demographic shift.
Many agencies in the region, including the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office, are sending officers to take crash courses in Spanish, while others are leaning on volunteers or officers who already speak the language.
In Kenner, where the most recent census found the growing Hispanic population makes up about 14 percent of the city, police usually turn to one of three Spanish-speaking officers.
Kenner police sometimes call in members of local community groups who speak Spanish, but they can usually rely on the officers, a department spokesman said.
The Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office maintains an interpreters bureau of 12 employees and community volunteers who speak Spanish, Vietnamese, German, Chinese and Korean and other languages.
The office was created in 1980 and is run through the community relations division, said Col. John Fortunato, the department's spokesman.
The participants are on call 24 hours day to assist investigators, said Fortunato, who did not have information on how often they've been used since Katrina.
The 70-officer Slidell Police Department, which has a reserve officer who speaks Spanish, recently tried to enroll four full-time officers in a three-day Spanish class in Gulfport, Miss., but the class was already filled.
"The demand for these classes is overwhelming," Capt. Kevin Foltz said. "It's the same story all along the Gulf Coast."
Demand is huge
The Regional Counterdrug Training Academy in Meridian, Miss., has turned away scores of police officers seeking to enroll in an introductory Spanish course, said Orrin Fuelling, the federal academy's training director.
"Every week, I get a call from another police department that wants to bring in half of its officers to learn Spanish," he said.
Fuelling said all 240 slots in the eight sections of the introductory class offered this year have long been filled.
The four-day "Survival Spanish" course focuses on key words and phrases that officers can use during traffic stops.
"We know you're not going to leave here fluent in Spanish, so we stick to basic commands like 'stop,' 'turn around' and 'show me your hands,' " Fuelling said.
He said officers also learn to recognize certain "danger words" so they can tell, for example, whether a driver they're questioning starts speaking in Spanish to a passenger about a hidden gun or knife.
The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office found slots for two detectives in an intensive 10-day Spanish camp hosted by a private police-training company next month in Indianapolis, spokesman George Bonnett said.
"From the time they sit down to breakfast until the time they go to bed, they speak only Spanish," he said, noting that sheriff's deputies encounter citizens who don't speak English nearly every day.
Other law enforcement agencies said they are stretched thin by additional post-Katrina responsibilities and can't afford to take officers off the street to enroll them in Spanish classes.
There are signs that some officers are taking matters into their own hands: An English-Spanish dictionary was visible on the dashboard of a Lake Pontchartrain Causeway police officer's patrol car at the scene of a recent crash.
Cultural barriers
"The language barrier is frustrating to people on both sides," Foltz said. "As police officers, we're in the business of helping people, but it's hard to help someone if you can't understand them."
In addition to the language barrier, Foltz said, officers must be aware of cultural differences. He said some Hispanic workers are wary of law enforcement officers because of experiences with corrupt police forces in their homelands.
"You don't want to handcuff a Hispanic suspect and put them on their knees because where some of these guys come from, the next thing that happens is they get a bullet to the back of the head," he said. "We don't want them to think we're a death squad."
Fuelling said police chiefs often tell him they want their officers to learn at least some Spanish because experts believe many of the demographic changes brought about by the storm will be permanent.
People of Hispanic descent comprised just 4.5 percent of the population in the seven-parish New Orleans metropolitan area before Katrina, according to U.S. Census data.
But many Spanish-speaking workers are expected to lay down roots here, possibly raising the percentage of permanent Hispanic residents into the double digits.
Just being heard
In Slidell, which had one of the lowest pre-Katrina Hispanic populations in the area, Essie O'Neill said she's enjoying the chance to practice her Spanish.
She said the people she helps police question often launch into elaborate explanations, eschewing the just-the-facts responses officers usually prefer.
"They need someone to hear them out," she said. "They always tell me the whole story from the very beginning because they're so relieved to finally be talking to someone who understands them."
Drennan emphasized that most of the Slidell officers' encounters with Spanish-speaking migrant workers are linked to language-based misunderstandings, such as the accidental 911 calls.
"I don't want to give people the impression that we're dealing with a Hispanic crime wave, because we aren't," he said.
Even so, O'Neill has helped with enough police interrogations and arrests that she carries a card in her purse with the Miranda rights in Spanish.
"Tiene usted el derecho de quedarse callado," the translation begins; it's Spanish for "You have the right to remain silent."
"I was really nervous the first time I had to read someone their rights, but it's also pretty exciting," she said. "This has given me a chance to be a part of my husband's work, and not many police officers' wives can say that."

We've been waiting for a chance to pick up a Toshiba Gigabeat S media player since we first got a chance to check it out at CES in January. And now it looks like the wait may soon be over. While Toshiba has yet to officially announce a US rollout, Engadget reader One.Person pointed us to HIDEF Lifestyle, which has the model available for preorder, with a ship date of May 15th. Of course, it could just be a ploy to bring in pre-orders, and we should point out that Amazon -- which is usually a pretty accurate source -- has the Gigabeat S listed with a May 30th ship date. Hey, after waiting since January, either date is fine with us, though we wouldn't mind getting our hands on this before Memorial Day, so we can break it out as soon as we open the Engadget beach house.

From the field: Hip-hop and social activism in Senegal
World Learning
April 21st, 2011
Sonya Shadravan is an alum of the SIT Study Abroad Senegal: National Identity and the Arts program and a Barnard College graduate. She recently arrived in Senegal where she will be implementing a series of youth-empowerment programs as a World Learning Alice Rowan Swanson Fellow. This is the first of several blog posts we will receive from Sonya as she completes her fellowship project.
When I first arrived in Senegal in 2009 I quickly became fascinated by the Senegalese hip-hop movement, by the social consciousness and engagement of Senegalese rappers, and by their ability to affect change locally and throughout the African Diaspora. Through my SIT research I had the privilege of becoming close friends with many rappers whose work ranged from creating educational TV shows on child rights to public health announcements to projects encouraging Senegalese youth to vote.
Many of these artists, however, expressed frustration with what they identify as a sort of endemic of apathy—of youth who are frustrated with the daily realities of Senegalese life yet are too disenfranchised to enact change. Though leading hip-hop artists proudly portray their commitment to examining social issues, the legacy of Senegal's caste system and rigid age hierarchy as well as the residue of colonial rule in educational systems hinders opportunities for the majority of youth to explore issues pertinent to their daily realities. These issues include the history of slavery and sex trafficking in Senegal, gender inequality, public health, politics, and post-colonial studies. The inspiration for my Alice Rowan Swanson Fellowship project, informed by Senegalese adolescents and community leaders, was the recognition that Dakar is in need of safe and inclusive spaces for youth to explore these themes to awaken within them a sense of belonging to their community and a responsibility to catalyze its betterment.
Prior to studying abroad in Senegal, I became involved in youth empowerment projects in New York, and went through a training called Releasing the Powers of Junior Youth. This training is a part of a model of Junior Youth Empowerment, initially created in Colombia and now utilized in almost every country internationally. In this model, young adults undergo training to become "animators" (or facilitators) of small groups of junior youth aged 12-15 who meet regularly in their neighborhoods, engaging in discussions on their daily realities and creating and executing their own small-scale service projects.
Since I returned to Dakar it has been clear that social frustration with the government, unemployment rates, and the difficulties of daily life have risen. As I write this, thousands are protesting in the streets under a movement named "Y'en a marre" (or "Fed Up"). In the past few days I have met with community members, hip-hop artists, youth, and educators to begin organizing "animator" training programs. Each group's exploration of reality may include turning towards local media, political speeches, and discussing cultural values. Sessions may also include personal reflection, drama, meditation, art, and in this case we are making a special attempt to use hip hop as a mode of reflection and expression. The animators of each program will aim to encourage their junior youth to identify needs in their communities, and devise small-scale projects that will collectively transform those communities. Some of the projects we have already discussed for groups in Dakar range from neighborhood clean-ups to the hosting of gatherings aimed at ameliorating ties between people of different religious backgrounds.
For now I am working to reach out to artists and youth in different parts of Dakar, especially those areas deeply affected by poverty and a lack of educational opportunities. Children's rights organizations, school directors, and artists have asked many questions but also expressed excitement about the project, all of which gives me encouragement about the impact this project can have on Senegalese youth.

The evidence is setting out to stack up that 2006 will indeed be this year of peak world oil production. You have to Google "peak oil" inside your more, but here are three of this most compelling reasons for believing how the peak almost upon everyone.
Another area of concern precisely what the full news release do utilizing the waste water, referred to as produced water. Is definitely the water that features the chemicals combined in that is pumped through the shale. There has been accounts where dumping in local streams near drill wells have taken place. The film also documents where aero sprayers are widely used to spray the chemically treated water into the air raising concerns about chemicals going airborne. The question is also raised if everyone the water is actually pumped out of the drill wells. In Wyoming at one among the largest drill sites in country, the filmaker counted 400-500 trucks taking water in but only 200-300 taking water information about. With half the quantity of trucks taking water appears like perhaps not all the waste water is pumped out.
Gas heating elements. Since these heaters are fuelled either by oil and gas exploration or bottled ones, could be less capable that the electric heaters. Their waste products due to combustion are discharged in the greenhouse and ventilation should be applied when they in usage. Also, these heaters ought to placed within a safe location and need constant monitoring and complete replacement.
There is no doubt you will find there's looming energy problem in the arena. While gas prices may seem high now, things look particularly grim over the other 60 changing times. oil exploration investing is at an historical low while at the same time emerging economies such as China and India improve the demand on existing solutions. Throw in population growth of around another 3.5 billion people over the next 50 years and we are really staring within the wrong end of a energy shotgun. Of course, this doesn't even to help account for global warming issues.

Dodgy ankle won't stop Frayne making history in London
- Details
- Created: Wednesday, 25 July 2012 00:19
The 22-year-old from Brisbane will become the first Australian since Ian Tomlinson in 1964 to feature in both events in the sand at the one Games, becoming a track and field dual international in rugby and rugby league parlance.
He has been troubled recently by an ankle complaint that stemmed from what he admits was a technical flaw he picked up while trying to avoid landing on bruised heels, and instead falling on his toes. However, the athletics all-rounder is hopeful he can make an impression at his first Olympics — and in both disciplines.

"Really, all that existed there were a few beams, tires and chains," Zavaski said. "There was nothing that was exciting for the kids. We were looking to get the kids active. We've been behind the times on that. And safety was an issue. The time had just come for a new playground."
If the number of children present at the site on construction days was any indication, the kids were excited about the prospect, as well. Canino said she thought the fact that it was a volunteer-driven effort increased the students' pride in the playground.
"It makes them appreciate it that much more," she said. "I think it's good for kids early in life to volunteer for something and see how good it makes them feel. And when they look at this playground, they'll be able to do that. They'll know that they had a hand in building it, that their parents had a hand in building it. It makes them proud."
MRE's playground to go up this weekend
Wetzel Road Elementary has a nice new playground, and Morgan Road is next.
Principal Fred Fowler said the school will begin construction of the new playground this weekend, Aug. 17 and 18.
"It's all volunteers," Fowler said. "We'll have two workers from Miracle [Equipment, the company that designed the playground] plus all of our volunteers."
Fowler said HSBC will present a check to the school Wednesday for the work.
Fowler said Morgan's playground had become a safety hazard and needed to be updated.
Anyone interested in volunteering or helping out can contact Morgan Road Elementary at 453-1268.

AUSTIN -- Texas lawmakers are learning that anti-sanctuary cities legislation is laced with nuances.
Broadly defined, the legislation puts local governments at risk of losing state grant funding and being sued if they establish policies preventing law enforcement from questioning the immigration status of people they lawfully detain or arrest.
But lawmakers on the Transportation and Homeland Security committee on Monday started unraveling details about how such a law would be implemented if local authorities have the proper training to enforce federal immigration law and who would be most affected by the legislation.
El Paso County officials testified that they have already been threatened with a lawsuit. Houston Police Chief Charles McClelland Jr. estimated that it will cost him about $4.3 million to train 5,300 officers by the Sept. 1 implementation date. And, Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez told lawmakers that it would cost her office about $1.5 million annually to keep undocumented immigrants in jails.
"You all had difficulty explaining the definitions of this stuff," Valdez said. "How am I going to train my officers to carry out this law appropriately without us getting sued?"
Debating ambiguity
Some lawmakers expressed concerns that each officer interprets terms such as "probable cause" and "reasonable suspicion" differently and some may go beyond the scope of what is allowed in order to target undocumented immigrants.
The larger arguments for and against the bill that have been debated for months carried into the committee meeting on Monday.
The author of the bill, state Sen. Tommy Williams, R-The Woodlands, said racial profiling would not be allowed. He said the measure does not target Hispanics but instead is a "proactive" way to send "a loud and clear message to criminal aliens that we will not tolerate their presence here in Texas."
Opponents said that is not what the bill does.
Democrats, who are outnumbered and no longer able to block anti-sanctuary cities legislation, also grew more nuanced in their opposition to the bill. They are hoping to amend the bill, which cleared the committee and is expected to pass when the full Senate takes it up today.
Lawmakers spent several hours debating how various broad descriptions in the bill would be interpreted by police officers.
The bill says that local law enforcement can question the immigration status of anyone who is "lawfully detained" but that could also mean people who are witnesses to a crime and victims of domestic violence, according to testimony.
"Lawfully detained means you are not free to go," McClelland said. "For example, I'm a homicide detective. There has been a murder committed. I don't suspect you of being the suspect but you're a material witness. I can lawfully detain you."
The bill also allows individual officers to check a person's immigration status under "probable cause" and "reasonable suspicion." Some lawmakers expressed concerns that each officer interprets those terms differently and some may go beyond the scope of what is allowed to target undocumented immigrants.
"We all know of newspaper accounts, of television accounts, of anecdotal accounts of people who get stopped by the police because of a broken tail light or some kind of traffic infraction that was used as a pretext to stop that person," state Sen. José Rodríguez, D-El Paso, said.
El Paso has had problems with such actions before and could face them again, Rodríguez said.
Former American Civil Liberties Union activist Carl Starr sued El Paso in federal court in 2006 after a sheriff's deputy stopped a bus he was riding in and allegedly asked each person to provide proof of citizenship.
The lawsuit led to a settlement that required county officials to establish a clear written policy prohibiting deputies from enforcing civil immigration laws and to train them on the limits of their authority to enforce those laws. Starr has put the county on notice that he will file another lawsuit if it breeches the settlement terms in order to meet the provisions in the proposed state law.
Texas lawmakers have not identified a sanctuary city.
State Rep. Florence Shapiro, R-Plano, during an exchange, asked Williams if the bill abolishes sanctuary cities. Williams responded, "No, it does not."
Shapiro, who supports the bill, said that is "because we have no sanctuary cities." To which Williams quickly responded that there is debate over whether there are any such cities in the state.
"So, what it really does is it prevents sanctuary cities," Shapiro said.
Williams responded "actually no. I would say that would be the goal of the legislation but if a city or a county decided they wanted to continue, they could do that. They would just suffer the loss of state funding."
Tears and tension
As lawmakers and law enforcement officials discussed the distinctions of the proposed law, supporters and opponents shared tearful stories and tense exchanges.
On one end, Sgt. Joslyn Johnson, whose husband, Houston police Officer Rodney Johnson, was killed by an undocumented immigrant five years ago, pushed for passage of the bill.
"My husband was killed by an illegal alien who had been deported and had molested a child," Johnson said. "This will be a tool for officers to use to ensure that our cities are safe."
On the other end, Patricia Rendon gave a tearful account of being physically and mentally abused by a man who told her that if she called police she would be deported.
Rendon called the police anyway, and the man, who also abused her children, is now serving a 30-year sentence.
"If there is a law that makes us feel that we cannot call police to report a crime because we will be deported, then criminals will be free and people will be able to continue harming immigrants," Rendon said.
Some citizen supporters of the measure chastised opponents who gave testimony in Spanish with English translators.
State Sen. Chris Harris, R-Arlington, at one point snapped at a man who was testifying in Spanish against the bill. The man said he has been in the country since 1988 and speaks English but felt more comfortable testifying in Spanish.
"Why aren't you speaking in English," Harris said. "It's insulting to us. It's very insulting. If he knows English he needs to speak in English."

Nonvignon 8 Group
The group's representative, named Pélagie, is the one raising her hand in the photograph. She's 24 years old and married to a mason named Victor. Pélagie is the mother of two children whom the couple has to support. Both children attend school.
Pélagie lives together with her children and her husband. The couple ensures together that the various household expenses are covered. To be able to do so, Pélagie sells fruits (apples) and kitchenware (bowls) as a traveling saleswoman.
She gets her supplies in one of Benin's market. Eager to satisfy her clientele and in order to bolster her revenue and income, Pélagie, together with the other members of NONVIGNON 8 Group, is seeking a second loan from ALIDé. The first loan was repaid without problems.
Additional Information
About AlidéAlidé is a Beninese NGO that works to reduce poverty by offering sustainable access to productive loans like this one in addition to savings, training sessions, and social work to low-income families.
Supporters of this loan should be aware that there is some risk of being repaid late. Because the Beninois Ministry of Finance has imposed restrictions on the amount of money Alidé can send to Kiva, the organization can only send monthly repayments in installments smaller than $13,000. This means that some Kiva lenders may receive their repayments late. However, Alidé remains a healthy institution in good standing with its creditors, and Kiva would like to continue working to support its clients. For more information, please refer to Alidé's partner profile page.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

London Buses route 50 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, England. Running between Croydon and Stockwell, it is operated by Arriva London.
Route 50 commenced operating on 7 January 1951, as a replacement for former Tram route 24, providing a Monday to Saturday peak hour service between Streatham Hill and Embankment station. The route was operated from Brixton and Clapham garages by AEC Regent III RTs and Leyland Titans.
By October 1956, the Saturday Clapham allocation was withdrawn. By 16 October 1957 the entire Saturday service was withdrawn also with the allocation at Clapham. The route was also revised Monday to Friday to run between Addiscombe and Stockwell station. Monday to Friday peak services were extended to Embankment station. By the end of November 1958 the Saturday service was running again, but only between Addiscombe and Stockwell station.
During May 1963 the AEC Regent III RTs had been replaced by Leyland Titans. On 29 January 1964, route 50 was withdrawn between Victoria and Embankment, the route ran from Addiscombe to Victoria Monday to Saturdays. Streatham (AK) took over the allocation from Brixton.
By the end of 1966, the route had been withdrawn between Stockwell and Victoria except for Monday to Friday peak services. A new allocation was introduced from Thornton Heath garage.
On 15 June 1968, the Monday to Friday service between Streatham (AK) and Addiscombe was withdrawn and replaced by route 289. On 19 July 1969, the Streatham garage allocation was withdrawn and this was replaced by a full-time Brixton garage allocation.
On 31 October 1970, the Saturday service was withdrawn. Monday to Friday services ran from Streatham garage to Stockwell, and Monday to Friday peak services ran to Victoria station. On 24 July 1971, a full weekday service was introduced. The route was converted to one-person operation and was operated by Daimler Fleetlines. The route was revised again: Monday to Saturday services ran from Croydon to Stockwell station, and Sunday services from Thornton Heath High Street to Stockwell station.
On 4 September 1982, the Sunday service was withdrawn. The PVR for Monday to Saturday remained the same. In October 1984 the Daimler Fleetlines were replaced by MCW Metrobuses. On 7 February 1987, the Brixton garage allocation was withdrawn and was replaced by Streatham garage. On 14 May 1988, the route was extended from Croydon to Old Coulsdon and withdrawn between Streatham and Stockwell. The route now ran from Streatham garage to Old Coulsdon. A Monday to Saturday Croydon garage allocation was introduced.
By now the route was only operated by Leyland Olympians and MCW Metrobuses. On 21 July 1990 a Sunday service was reintroduced. The Streatham garage allocation was withdrawn and replaced by one at Thornton Heath. The route ran from Old Coulsdon to Streatham St Leonard's Church daily. In June 1991, the route was withdrawn between Streatham garage and Streatham St Leonard's Church.
On 9 October 1993, the Thornton Heath allocation was withdrawn and was replaced by Croydon (TC). On 29 August 1998, the route was withdrawn between Old Coulsdon and South Croydon, this was replaced by route 60.
On 25 October 2003, route 50 was converted to low floor operation using Wright Pulsar Gemini bodied DAF DB250LFs. On 30 August 2008, route 50 was extended from Streatham Hill to Stockwell station via the withdrawn section of route 255.
In 2010, Route 50 was retained by Arriva London.[1] On 31 March 2012, route 50 was transferred to Brixton (BN).
