Judge says juvenile charged in fatal stabbing has mental health issues
A 12-year-old boy accused of fatally stabbing a playmate in East County last year was ordered Thursday to be released from Juvenile Hall and sent to a residential treatment facility until his mental competency is restored.
Juvenile Court Judge Cynthia Bashant determined in August that the boy was not competent to stand trial and suspended the criminal proceedings. The judge said the boy was not only immature but also suffered from mental health and developmental issues brought on by fetal alcohol syndrome.
The boy — who was 10 when 12-year-old Ryan Carter was killed — has remained held in Juvenile Hall while authorities wrestled over who would pay for housing and treatment at a potential cost of up to $160,000 a year.
In December, the boy's attorney said a facility had been found where he would receive daily psychiatric and psychological care, and be seen by a social worker. The staff is expected to meet the boy's educational needs and teach him to interact with others in appropriate ways, Deputy Public Defender Marian Gaston has said.
The facility is not locked, but the boy is not considered to be a flight risk.
Lawyers said Thursday that an administrative law judge had ordered the county Office of Education to pay for the boy's treatment, housing and education until he is 21, unless his mental competency is restored before then.
The judge set a court date a year from now to determine his status.
Music Watson, spokeswoman for the county Office of Education, said room and board at a residential facility can cost $100,000 annually. The education component would add an additional $30,000 to $40,000 a year, and mental health treatment could add $10,000 to $20,000 a year.
U-T San Diego is not using the boy's name because his case has been handled in Juvenile Court, and he cannot be charged as an adult.
Deputy District Attorney Victor Barr said outside the courtroom that Ryan Carter's parents had remained strong and compassionate in the face of tragedy.
Prosecutors charged the boy with murder and assault with a deadly weapon in connection with the Jan. 16, 2012, outside the younger boy's home. Ryan's parents have said the boys were playing together when the younger one grabbed a kitchen knife and threatened another playmate. Ryan intervened and was stabbed in the chest.

HIDE/SEEK Difference and Desire in American Portraiture
The first major museum exhibition to focus on sexual difference in modern American portraiture, HIDE/SEEK: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture presents new perspectives on American art, the nature of modern portraiture, and the multifaceted role that sexuality and gender have played in modern art. Featuring works by some of the most important figures in modern and contemporary art, HIDE/SEEK explores the role that sexual identity has played in cultural expressions through more than a hundred works in a range of media.
From early modern works by realist painters to contemporary conceptual works, HIDE/SEEK follows the thread of often coded expressions of sexual identity, pointing out connections between stylistic innovation and marginalization, social history and art history. The works on view range from early twentieth-century paintings in which artists developed visual codes and other strategies to veil sexual themes, to works by artists responding to the Stonewall riots of 1969 and the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s and beyond. That so many of the artists in this exhibition, from Eakins to Warhol, are touchstones in the history of American art is clear evidence that exchange among people of differing sexualities has been the rule, not the exception, in American culture. HIDE/SEEK tells a story of artistic and cultural creativity that has been hidden in plain sight for the last century.
HIDE/SEEK: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture was originally organized by the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution, and has been reorganized by the Brooklyn Museum and the Tacoma Art Museum. The original presentation was co-curated by David C. Ward, National Portrait Gallery, and Jonathan D. Katz, director of the doctoral program in visual studies at the State University of New York in Buffalo. The Brooklyn Museum presentation is coordinated by Tricia Laughlin Bloom, Project Curator.

One of the tabs that forms one side of the pivot joint of one of the tripod legs broke the other day. It appears to be a clean break flush with the base of the mount. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there anything that can be done to fix it? Would it take to being welded back on?
Help! My Meade tripod is broken!

Little is known about the clinical significance of chronic alanine aminotransferase (ALT) elevation in HIV-infected patients without hepatitis B and C coinfection. Study aim is first to evaluate the prevalence of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis in HIV-infected patients with chronic ALT elevation and no chronic viral hepatitis using non-invasive diagnostic tests and second to find associated factors with significant fibrosis and cirrhosis. In a second longitudinal part we intend to assess fibrosis progression within 1 and 3 years.

The Blacklist
Thursdays 9/8c on NBC
About The Blacklist
For decades, ex-government agent Raymond "Red" Reddington has been one of the FBI's most wanted fugitives. After brokering shadowy deals for criminals across the globe for years he's now mysteriously surrendered to the FBI with an explosive offer: he will help them catch an entire "blacklist" of politicians, mobsters, spies and international terrorists but only under the condition that he works exclusively with Elizabeth "Liz" Keen, an FBI profiler fresh out of Quantico. Red will teach Liz to think like a criminal and "see the bigger picture"... whether she wants to or not.

The old belief goes that in the world of small business startups, restaurants are most prone to failing in the first year. In the online world, though, blogs hold that dubious honor. Many blogs crop up every day, started on a whim, never to be updated again. Or they stick around for a few months, only to fizzle out as the audience never materializes. But one Alaska woman has been quietly building a blogging empire from her home in Delta Junction, and a new book featuring her homebuilt furniture designs may soon help her become a household name.
"The Handbuilt Home" is a collection of plans and instructions for creating more than 30 different pieces of furniture, from kitchen and bathroom storage to indoor and outdoor dining tables and even beds and mirrors. It's a woodworking rookie's dream, as the plans are simple, require minimum cuts and tools, and are laid out in a straightforward, step-by-step guide. It's being released nationally on Tuesday.
Behind the book is Ana White, a peppy, brunette 32-year-old mother from the Alaska Interior, who began building furniture out of necessity, not as a business plan that now nets her a reported four million views every month on her blog and has amassed more than 100,000 Facebook followers -- numbers any digital business would kill for.
How it all began
White grew up in the area of Fairbanks and Delta Junction. In the late 1990s, she left Alaska to attend school out of state.
"I did leave as soon as I was old enough to get out of here," White said. "I went to college, got a corporate job. I thought that was the ticket to a healthy life, and quickly discovered that I was actually sort of miserable."
One day in 2002, she was sitting in her office in California's Silicon Valley and watching gardeners and landscapers working outside, "tending flowers and cutting the lawn and joking around."
"I actually felt really envious," she said. "Like they had a better life than me."
So she quit her job and briefly returned to Alaska before becoming what she describes as a "ski bum" for about a year.
"I didn't really know what to do with myself," White said. "I felt like a failure."
She then returned again to Alaska before meeting her husband, Jacob, whom she married in 2005. They began building a house, by themselves, on a property they owned with nothing more than a garage. That's where they stayed while they worked on construction from summer of 2006 to the fall of 2007.
But when the house was finished, they didn't have money left for furniture, White said. Jacob had been laid off from his job in the electrical field, and their daughter, Grace, had been born. They had little time and little money, and they were using a card table for dining, and their mattress sat on the floor of the bedroom.
"Eventually I thought, 'if we can build a house, why can't we build furniture?'" White said. "So despite having limited knowledge and very little experience with tools, I decided I'm going to try to build my own bed."
That bed became the "Farmhouse Bed" White's first and signature project. She and her husband still use that bed to this day, she said, but getting there was a process of self-education.
MORE: See the "Farmhouse Bench" project from Ana White's "The Handbuilt Home"
"I didn't have any woodworking experience, and no books or anything to draw on," White said. "I would study the furniture in stores and in catalogs. We would go to people's houses, or go out to eat, and it wasn't uncommon for me to climb under the table to see how it was built."
She bought $80 worth of wood from a home improvement store, laid out a plan using the simplest woodcuts she could, and worked on the project while her daughter slept in the car, sitting outside the window of the garage where White could keep an eye on her without waking her with the sounds of construction.
"I couldn't believe it," White said of her bed when it was finished. "Still to this day I go into our bedroom and think, 'oh my gosh, I built that?'"
The start of something big
That, White said, was when she went "crazy about furniture," and furnished their entire house with DIY projects, with the exception of upholstered pieces like couches.
But with her newfound passion, White still hoped to find an outlet to share her discoveries. Then, while on a playdate one day, a friend of hers mentioned blogging. White signed up for a blog of her own in 2009.
She shared her story and her designs on her blog, and didn't fall victim to the frustration that comes from building a blog from the ground up, seeing few if any readers in the early weeks. She posted project after project, then about three months in, she woke up and saw that the blog had been viewed 68,000 times in one day.
"From that month on, the blog was being seen a million times every month," she said. And it kept going, in large part thanks to White's devotion to building furniture and sharing it with the world. She began trying to complete a project every day, often drying fresh finish and paint with a hair dryer so she could get it online faster.
Her work is targeted toward other people who otherwise wouldn't have the experience, time or money to build their own furniture. Most of the pieces in the book can be completed with simple hand tools and a couple of easy-to-use power tools like a circular saw and drill.
White said that building your own furniture is especially practical in Alaska, where shipping costs can often be as much as the item itself -- if it can even be shipped this far north.
Eventually, though, with so many projects, White began to run out of room in her home for furniture, and she wasn't interested in producing furniture just to sell it. So she began collaborating with others who would contact her looking for plans for a specific project. She would come up with the plans, and the collaborator would work on building it, while they would troubleshoot issues together.
The finished projects look great, too, many along the lines of upscale mass-market furniture brands like Pottery Barn and Restoration Hardware.
In "The Handbuilt Home," many of the projects were built by other bloggers from White's plans. White said that this is because the process is entirely one built around community. One of the big demographics for White's work is other moms and "mommy bloggers," a major blogging niche. Many of the projects are also for children's furniture or play sets, targeted toward housewives and mothers.
So what's next for White? She's preparing to embark on a book tour to promote her book, and continuing to blog and design new projects. She's also focused on building what she's dubbed the "Momplex," a from-the-ground-up home they're building for her mother and her husband's mother.
"I really just feed off of what my readers want of me," she said. "I'd love to take it to television at some point, but I'm not really excited to leave Alaska again."
In the end, she said, her new passion is its own reward, especially after her years of aimlessness in the wake of her leaving her career in California.
"After being a mom, I can see now that it's the most important job I'll ever do," White said. "But there was a time I never thought I'd have a career again."
Ana White will be doing book signings in Alaska during the month of November, including a signing beginning at 7 p.m. Nov. 6 at the Barnes and Noble bookstore in Fairbanks, and another at Barnes and Noble in Anchorage on Nov. 10, beginning at 2 p.m.

STARKVILLE, Miss., - Mississippi State overcame a slow start to pull within one point heading into the locker room at halftime against Alabama.But the Crimson Tide were simply too much in the second half outscoring their twin state rival by 17 points in the final 20 minutes claiming a 75-57 victory in the conference opener for both. "To pull within one point in the first half as horrible as we'd played, I felt like we won the half," said MSU head coach Rick Stansbury. "I didn't think we could play any worse and then I found out the second half that we could."Alabama (9-6, 1-0) shot 60-percent in the second half and 49.2-percent for the game. The Tide also played well on the defensive end of the floor holding MSU to without a field goal for nearly seven minutes in the final half."We had opportunities to get the lead and didn't do it," Stansbury said. "They came down in the first seven or eight minutes of that second half and spurted out to 10 or 12 and that's where it was at and we never recovered from it. The basket got bigger for them and tighter for us."Trevor Releford led Alabama scoring a game-high 17 points on 7-of-11 shooting. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member.

A 15-year veteran of the N.C. General Assembly Police Department has been arrested on a number of sex charges involving children and dating back to 2002.
An arrest report filed with the Wake County Sheriff's Office says 42-year-old Daniel Shawn Evans of Raleigh was arrested at the legislative building Friday. He is being held at the Wake County Detention Center under a $1 million bond. It isn't known if Evans has an attorney.
General Assembly Police Chief Jeff Weaver said the agency has accepted Evans' resignation.
Warrants list two victims, referring to them only by their initials. The arrest report says Evans faces two counts of statutory rape, three counts of taking indecent liberties with a child, three counts of a first-degree sexual offense and one other sex offense.

The Power of Independent Thinking
Developing the Developed World
Entrepreneurship, Liberty, and the Future
Recorded: Tuesday, January 27, 2015
In his #1 New York Times bestselling book, Zero to One, Peter Thiel presents his often contrarian ideas about competition, progress, technology, and finding value in unexpected placesto build a future that we have yet to dream, but that may someday become reality. In Developing the Developed World he brings these ideas to life, including his insights on how to create true innovations in the world of atomsnot just digits and bitsand how to foster a peaceful, prosperous and freer future marked by globalization in a world of limited resources.
Peter Thiel is Founder and Managing Member of Clarium Capital Management, LLC; Co-Founder of Paypal, Palantir Technologies, Mithril Capital Management, and Valar Ventures; Managing Partner of Founders Fund; and past President of Thiel Capital International and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Confinity, Inc. He has been a Research Fellow at the Independent Institute, and he is the author of the books:
The Diversity Myth: Multiculturalism and Political Intolerance on Campus (with David O. Sacks)
He co-founded PayPal in 1998, led it as CEO, and in 2002 sold it to eBay and founded Clarium Capital Management, a global macro fund. In 2004 he made the first outside investment in Facebook, where he serves as a director. The same year he co-founded Palantir Technologies, a software company that harnesses computers to empower human analysts in fields like security and global finance. He has provided early funding for LinkedIn, Yelp, RoboteX, Spotify, and dozens of successful technology startups. He is a co-founder and partner at Founders Fund, a venture capital firm that has funded companies like SpaceX and Airbnb. And in 2012 he co-founded Mithril Capital Management, an international technology investment fund.
Mr. Thiel started the Thiel Fellowship, which ignited a national debate by encouraging young people to put learning before schooling, and he leads the Thiel Foundation, which works to advance technological progress and long-term thinking about the future. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Stanford University, where he received an A.B. in philosophy and a J.D. from the Stanford University School of Law. He further co-produced the film, "Thank You for Smoking," he was rated a master by the United States Chess Federation, and he received the Innovation Award from "The Economist" in 2010.

Smarter Urban Growth: Markets or Bureaucracy?
Recorded: Wednesday, October 3, 2001
Astronomical housing costs, suffocating traffic congestion, and pollution take a heavy toll on our quality of life. Are these problems the inescapable consequences of modern life or the results of poor government policies? Proponents of "smart growth" seek to correct them by replacing suburban living with high-density, urban living and public transit. Others seeks to extend and expand current public and private systems. But how smart are these and other approaches? Would market-based alternatives be preferable to create sustainable communities? Urban economists Randal O'Toole and Daniel Klein discussed innovative "smarter growth" solutions for affordable housing, transportation, land use, and the quality of life in our communities.

Truth and Propaganda in Politically Correct America
Recorded: Tuesday, August 14, 2001
Although comedian George Carlin's infamous routine, "Seven Words You Can't Say on TV," has become outdated, today many ideas are considered too 'politically incorrect' to discuss in polite society. According to popular Los Angeles talk-radio host Larry Elder, many sacred cows- about racism and sexism, health care, welfare, education, the family, drug laws, the media, crime, gun control, and more- are soft-headed distortions that have worsened America's social problems. If "the truth shall make you free," then, says Elder, these myths need a serious reality check- before we forget what truth and freedom look like. Larry Elder discussed what's really wrong with America and how a free people, rather than an intrusive government, can fix it.

Counterfeit Gangster
this wiki
Counterfeit Gangster is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars given to protagonist Huang Lee by Chan Jaoming.
Chan Jaoming has got some problems with the FIB. They will be coming to search his "Goods" and when they find out they are counterfeits they will arrest Chan again. Chan wants Huang to dispose of his "Goods".
This mission is pretty straight forward. You need to destroy all of Chan's goods before the FIB discover them. This mission is timed: you have 6 minutes and 15 seconds to complete it. The first bunch of "Goods" are right in front of Chan's place. Shoot, run over, or blow them up to destroy them. There are some Molotov Cocktails around the corner. Next take a vehicle and head to the nearest bunch of goods near the docks. Destroy these crates and then head to the next bunch. These are cars, you will need to use a crane to pick them up and dump them in the water. The Crane controls are pretty simple. Use the black joystick to move the crane around and pick cars up, dumping them in the water. The next part involves pushing a number of cars into the water using a Bulldozer. After they are all gone the mission is complete.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Destroy Chan's 'goods'. The FIB will arrive soon
- This area is clean. Get to another location.
- Find a heavy vehicle and dump Chan's cut'n'shut cars into the water
- This area is clean. Get to another location
- The compound is locked. Use the crane to dump Chan's cut'n'shut cars into the water
- This area is clean. Get to the final location
- Dispose of Chan's 'goods'
Mission Replay description
"The FIB were set to raid Chan's businesses.
I had to race around, getting rid of anything that could have been incriminating.
NB: Chan's convinced that Zhou is ratting out the Triads."

Christ Church, Esher, Surrey
Benjamin Ferrey (1810-80)
According to Chris Hawkins, Ferrey "was an architect with a sense of place... [He put] a fine building on a rise overlooking The Green and with a spire that signals the location of Esher for miles around." The inside of Christ Church also "fulfils expectations," partly because Prince Leopold personally contributed to the building fund. Queen Victoria attended worship here on later visits to nearby Claremont (pp. 65-60. [JB].

A designer at heart, Valori sees ideas and is able to capture them in her artistic endeavors. A graduate of Pacific Northwest College of Art, she received the school's "Outstanding Photographer of the Year" award in 1997. Since then, she has become involved in the family store, "The Stitchin' Post", in Sisters, Oregon, where she uses her talents in pattern and book design and is involved in the daily tasks of running a business. Valori is an author of two books, "Stitch'n' Flip" and "Radiant New York Beauties," and has co-authored four books on gardening and quilting with her mother, Jean Wells.

When Valori designs, she takes what she learns from her customers and her own desires for fabric to create original designs.

This blog is second in a series in which I take a look at four films in our collection which deal with illegal immigration, first and foremost from the perspective of those who undertake the journey, but also from viewpoint of their family, the communities they immigrate to and border patrol officers charged with repelling them from entering the country. Sin Nombre, Which Way Home, Mojados: Through the Night and El Inmigrante are all films that take a look at illegal immigration in greater depth and with a greater diversity of opinions than can be included in the typical media coverage of the debate. If you have a desire to take a closer look at the hows and whys of illegal border crossing, I urge you to check out one or all of these films.
With Sin Nombre still fresh in mind I was pleased to come across Which Way Home while I was perusing the new releases in the Audio Visual department. This was a documentary about the real-life youths making the journey by train. Even more astounding than witnessing the same dangerous circumstances of riding "el tren," now with actual lives at stake, was the extremely young age of those who rode it. "La Bestia," the beast, this is the affectionate and fearful title given to their transport by the main figure, Kevin "El Gordo" or "Fatty."
Kevin made this journey at the age of 14, making him the eldest among the children featured in the film. In fact, most of the children in this documentary are only around eight or nine years old. What a terrifying thought to think of my own child riding on top of a train all the way across the length of the Mexican territory. Some ran away from home. Some never had a home and some were sent by their families with hope they would arrive in America and be able to send money back home. The children laugh, make jokes and sing just like any other children. It is difficult not imagining a child you know of the same age making the journey.
I was very moved by two travelers in particular, Olga and Freddy, whose youth and innocence seems impossible in those surroundings. They are preoccupied with childish games but also worry about the dangers of their journey and sit awake through the night telling horror stories of what happens to those swept off the roof by a tree branch and between the cars below. When they talk about crossing the desert, as they must when they reach the end of the line, they have an air of bravado. They seem unconcerned with the warnings given by social workers who have volunteered to assist and inform the travelers in their crossings. However, although the situation is pitiful there is a lot of joy in the movie, thanks to the children.
The journey they share ends differently for all of them, and without saying too much, I can assure you that none of those endings is entirely unhappy, but it should be remembered that happy endings are not in store for all those who travel this way, perhaps they are even the exceptions to the rule.

News and Recent Developments
- August 2011, 2011. After several years of having the pleasure of testing out a whole range of solar oven designs, Sun Cooking Australia has launched their online online store of solar ovens, solar kettles solar cooking accessories, recipies and more. It's the largest range in Australia and we're always expanding and looking for ways to work with the solar cooking community. Website is www.SunCooking.com.au or you can contact [mailto: email@example.com Heather Stevens]
- September 20, 2008: Alice Springs, located in central Australia, will host its second annual Solar Oven Bakeoff on September 20, 2008, as part of the Alice Desert Festival at the Olive Pink Botanic Garden. All are welcome to join in the fun and compete for the Green Spoon Trophy. Oven design and use of local bush foods are two of the award categories. Last year's recipes included an Australian Quandong dish and a cacciatore. Respected food writer and cook Stephanie Alexander is among the judges. Alice Springs has on average 300 sunny days per year, and recently became one of five communities participating in the government's Solar Cities program. For more information, contact Kat Taylor.
- August 23, 2008: Learn to make and cook in your own solar oven out of recycled and new materials, including bits from old solar hot water systems. http://ee4s-ca.blogspot.com/2008/07/making-solar-ovens-out-of-old-hot-water.html
Climate, Culture, and Special Considerations
The average Australian home produces 500 kilograms of greenhouse gases a year through cooking, says the federal environment department. That is less than lighting (750 kilograms), and heating and cooling (1.5 tonnes), but it is still a fair old weight.
