State to extend bid deadline for city slots license
Maryland's slots commission convened a meeting on short notice to decide whether to give Baltimore developers an additional two months to hand in their casino proposals, adding yet another twist to the long-delayed project.
The idea is under consideration on the same day that Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake is rolling out her plans to spend the slots revenue. She wants to put most of the money toward reducing city property taxes by nine percent. It is unclear how much the delay -- it if occurs -- will impact her plan.
Robert Howells, with the State Lottery Agency, said during the meeting that his office needs more time to answer questions from potential Baltimore casino developers. He characterized their inquiries as "very technical" and "very thoughtful."
"It is difficult to cut off questions," Howells said, noting that he is aware that is answers may affect whether some groups decide to bid.
Developers for the Baltimore project are supposed to turn in their plans by next Thursday. A delay would likely put the due date after the Baltimore mayoral primary, eliminating any potential embarrassment should bids fail to materialize.
Baltimore developer Patrick Turner attended the meeting with his business partner Jim Seay, who owns Premier Rides and recently traveled to Asia with Gov. Martin O'Malley. The pair declined to comment.

Life is beautiful, life is fine,
Your goals are worthwhile, so are mine…
Don't worry, there is a God,
Just follow, and always nod.
Good people always come through in the end,
And morality, is our best friend…
Follow your leaders, watch TV,
We'll all one day be free…
And don't listen to angry intellectuals,
They're all latent homosexuals…
And don't be tempted by the beast inside,
This son of the devil you must always hide…
And don't do drugs, they'll make you die,
Only through prayer can you to heaven fly…
Love thy neighbor, turn thy cheek,
For remember that the lonely are weak…
And know that sarcasm comes from fear,
Hiding nothing but frightened tears…
And that everyone who attacks the system are liars,
They're all primitive savages with morbid desires…
If you see someone wearing black with long hair and studs,
You know he's up to no good - ashamed of our divine blood…
And if you see someone defiling our holy word,
You should crusade against him for the sake (of the herd…)
(The only happiness lies in fraternity…
And by true faith (only) you'll live for eternity.

Dark Furry Monster
The past week has been insane, whether it was running from job to job or staying up all night to complete homework; I'm exhausted.
Pretty much that means that school is finally back in action, sadly.
I question myself everyday while I sit in class why I am taking 18 credit hours. Some people would say I'm bizarre, but I just call myself an overachiever.
The outfit above represents the negativity that I've been experiencing throughout the week. It seems like I've either been spending too much money or people are constantly sick getting sick in my family. All I can say is I have a shopping problem.
With New York slowly approaching in February.. oh wait I haven't told you guys yet. Well let's just say that I will be heading to New York from February 9th through the 12th for internship meetings, friends,
shopping, and my future. This trip will determine whether I will be moving to New York in May and transferring schools. One thing I can say is that I'm extremely nervous.

A direction on the road ahead for Texas Democrats
Despite the overall election outcomes for Democrats in Texas, there were a few Democratic election successes in Texas in 2012. While these results are no "game change" yet, they could lead to one in the future. The success seems to have been built through a well financed and sustained effort of contacting the campaigns likely, or persuadable voters, with a populist message, and then getting them to the polls for early voting and election day.
This awesome analysis posted by Harold Cook on how Democrat Pete Gallego won his race for Congress, Rotkoff: Texas Democrats know how to win – we already are.
The formula was simple: the right message + innovative targeting + good old-fashioned field operation = a Gallego win.
First, we ditched the message recommended by a now out-of-business pollster, that Pete should focus on his background as a prosecutor and run as Mr. Law and Order. Instead, we started talking about the issues that Latino Democrats in Bexar County, South Texas, and El Paso really care about: protecting Social Security and Medicare for our seniors, and providing educational opportunities for our kids.
Second – it wasn't quite Project Narwhal – but working with the teams at AMM Political, GQR Research, and the Pivot Group we implemented a truly innovate candidate support model, and worked off the best field and mail targeting I've ever seen.
And you know what? It turns out that when you to talk to the right voters with the right message, you can win an election nobody thinks you will.
That same mantra served Pete well in the general election: find the right voters and talk to them about the issues that make a difference in their lives.
Also this article on a $600,000 effort in Bexar County that produced great results, Massive ground game boosts Bexar Democrats.
Trial lawyer and über Democrat Mikal Watts financed the effort this year, making it the most lavishly funded GOTV campaign ever mounted through Vote Texas. Watts had contributed $500,000 by the time the final pre-election campaign report was filed, and Daniels said Watts gave another $100,000 in the final days of the campaign.
The operation circumvented the Bexar County Democratic Party headquarters and chairman, an approach pioneered by Daniels and Lukin Gilliland Jr. in the 1990s.
Adelante Strategy Group partners Christian Archer and Cuauhtémoc "Temo" Figueroa organized the effort on the ground. Notably, Figueroa was the National Latino Vote Director for the 2008 Obama Presidential Campaign. And he ran a 2010 grass-roots effort in Nevada for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, which became the model for the Bexar County program.
Voter contact began late last summer. The targets were 125,000 "soft Democrats" who voted in the 2008 Democratic primary but aren't consistent Democratic voters.
Figueroa directed a team of 50 workers that went door-to-door for months. Phone banks also were used to push voters to cast early ballots.
Archer said more than 60,000 of the targeted voters cast ballots early.
A well-financed project that started over a year before election day. Even Harvey Kronberg mentioned it recently.
But a little noted relatively low-budget effort in San Antonio demonstrated what Democrats have to do to capitalize on demographic shifts that are making a difference elsewhere in the country.
A wealthy contributor kicked in $600,000 to build a ground game that spent months identifying 125,000 so-called soft Democrats who voted in 2008. The organization made multiple contacts and, according to a San Antonio Express News report was so successful, almost half of those targeted showed up to vote early.
Democrats had a blowout year in the San Antonio area and that $600,000 may have been the best utilized Democratic money in the cycle.
Turnout drops dramatically in non-presidential years, so Texas will probably still be solidly Republican in 2014. But a barely noticed effort in San Antonio may have built the roadmap to a future two party state.
The Texas Democrats also made minimal gains in Congress and the state House, Texas Democrats Gained, if Only a Little, in 2012.
Democrats still do not have any statewide officeholders — and their numbers in those races were dismal. But they held their ground in the state Senate, gained seven seats in the Texas House, split the four new seats in Congress and wrested another one away from the red team. The rebound from the disastrous 2010 election was not dramatic, but a gain is a gain.
I've seen little analysis of how Wendy Davis won her reelection in the Fort Worth area. The campaign consultant for her opponent Mark Shelton has received blame for running a bad campaign. But the truth is Davis just ran a better campaign.
The Democrats in Texas need to go back to a message like this in order to succeed in the future.
In the century in which we live, the Democratic Party has received the support of the electorate only when the party, with absolute clarity, has been the champion of progressive and liberal policies and principles of government.
The party has failed consistently when through political trading and chicanery it has fallen into the control of those interests, personal and financial, which think in terms of dollars instead of in terms of human values.
The Republican Party has made its nominations this year at the dictation of those who, we all know, always place money ahead of human progress.
For some reason too many voters in Texas still see the Democratic Party in Texas as the party of elites and the greedy. Part of the reason is because not enough Democrats have been telling them it's the GOP that now wears that mantle in Texas.
Further Reading:
Why Texas Republicans won't win over Hispanic voters.
Hispanic voters, as it turns out, are smart. They overwhelmingly support Democrats because we believe in educating their children, caring for their elders and ensuring that their family has health care. They know that Democrats support the Dream Act and that we don't believe that wasting $7.3 billion on a border wall is the answer to immigration reform.
As the Hispanic voting population continues to increase in Texas, so too will the turnout rates for the community. We've seen how grassroots organizing efforts in Colorado and Nevada increased Latino turnout and transformed those states blue. A similar effort in Texas will reap equal rewards. That work will occur alongside the continued rise of elected Democratic Latino leaders. Julian and Joaquin Castro, Juan Garcia (assistant secretary of the Navy), Rafael Anchia and Leticia Van de Putte are just a few of the promising leaders in the Democratic Party.

DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER KHUPE: Thank you very much. First of all, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the U.S. Government for the support they've given to my country to try and end HIV. And I'd also like to share with you – and I think this is what is happening in all the countries – that women constitute 52 percent of the population. In my country, women contribute more than 80 percent of the gross domestic product in my country. Half of the food consumed in my country comes from a woman's hand. Women work 10 times harder than men. Women are creators of wealth. (Laughter and applause.)
But if we try to interrogate to say, what is it that the benefit at the end of the day? What is it that we are rewarded with? HIV wears the face of a woman. Poverty wears the face of a woman. Discrimination wears the face of a woman. Inequality wears the face of a woman. In Zimbabwe, currently 1.2 million people are infected with scourge of HIV and AIDS; 600,000 – out of the 1.2 million, 600,000 are women and 150,000 are children. So it is a clear indication that HIV wears the face of a woman. And this is the reason why as a country we've come to understand that women are a force to reckon with, and this is why we have made them our focus in our AIDS response.
Currently Zimbabwe reported improved awareness as a result of massive educational programs which have led to behavior change. We also recorded an increase in the use of condoms, and the use of condoms have paid a dividend, and coupled behavior change our prevalence rate reduced from 28 percent to 14 percent. We have more than 500,000 people at the moment who are receiving ARV treatment, but out of the 1.2 million.
And our major focus as well is elimination of new HIV infections among children and keeping the mothers alive. We have made sure that we increase the number of sites for PMTCT from 960 to 1,560. So now women able to go to those areas, and 86 percent of the women received ARV prophylaxis, thereby making sure that there's no vertical transmission.
So we have done all those things. At the same time as a country, we have introduced (inaudible), It was introduced in 1999. And last year alone, it managed to generate 26 million, and this year we are expecting that it's going to generate 30 million. So this is the money which is also used to make sure that people, especially women, have good access to ARVs.
But at the same time, I think it is important that when we talk about HIV and AIDS, let's talk about it within the context of poverty. Because as much as we are giving our women ARV prophylaxis, ARVs, as long as these people do not have food, the medication will do more harm than good. You've got – you're supposed to take that medication with food. So we give them those ARVs. We go out to the villages. Because they do not have food, they end up not taking that medication.
But on the other hand, you are saying, oh, we are assisting Zimbabwe. We are giving them ARVs, but you don't know that most of the people in the villages are not taking that medication because they do not have food. And I would like to plead, especially with the U.S. Government and other development partners, to say as we give people ARVs, let's also give them food hampers for the period of the treatment. That's the only way I think we can try and end HIV.
And at the same time, I strongly believe that it is important that all the men get tested for HIV, because once they're tested and they start taking medication, they will reduce the viral load, and thereby making sure that we do not have more HIV infections. And if all those things were to be done, believe me you, we will get to zero.
In Zimbabwe again we started the program with male circumcision. As we all know, research shows that HIV – I mean male – men who are male circumcised, they go to 60 percent chance of not getting infected by the scourge of HIV. So in Zimbabwe right now, 50,000 men have gone going through male circumcision. Our target is 1.2 million by the year 2015, and we're hoping that by then all those men would have been tested. As long as we do all those things, I strongly believe that we can definitely turn the tide and end HIV. (Applause.)
MS. GIBSON: Deputy Prime Minister Khupe, could you explain the GlobalPOWER Women Africa Network and the Harare declaration? Because this is about the global unified approach. I want you to – if you can keep it quite short, I've been told that we don't have that much time – but I would love you to explain what that network is and what the Harare declaration is.
DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER KHUPE: First of all, our touchstone for the GlobalPOWER Women Network is the excellence of Joyce Banda, the President of Malawi, and she has done fantastic at the work to make sure that this network becomes strong. GlobalPOWER Women Network is a network which brings in women from all walks of life, women parliamentarians. And it means that because we realize that our leaders in Africa who have been penning signatures, in so far as (inaudible) are concerned for (inaudible) declarations. But when it comes to implementation, they have done absolutely nothing.
For instance, if you look at the Abuja declaration, they set in 2001 in Abuja and we agreed that we were going to lead from the front to end HIV and that we were going to make sure that 50 percent of their budgets were towards health so that we so that we end HIV. Up to now, very few countries have done that. So we want to hold them accountable. We want to make sure that we transform those signatures into action.
So women who are in the executive where policies are made, where budgets are discussed, will make sure that there is no budget which is passed as long as if it doesn't take into consideration the needs of women. In parliament as well, women parliamentarians will ensure that no budget is passed, no law is passed, as long as if it doesn't take into consideration the needs of the women. So this is what GlobalPOWER is all about. We want to hold our leaders accountable, and we will definitely do that to make sure that they transform their signatures into action.

1.5 Patch/Philippine Islands Map:
In this new conquest map for Battlefield 1942, naval warfare and infantry island invasions take center stage in a raging firefight for the Philippine Islands. The shallow water between the islands act as a barrier to the invading Japanese Destroyer, but is no problem for the fast patrol craft used by either side. In some cases, islands are so close together that infantry can wade between them.
The Invasion of the Philippines map introduces two new vehicles: the Elco 80 PT Boat for the US Marines and the Type 38 coastal craft for the Japanese. These fast patrol craft are the most heavily armed for their size in either navy packing torpedoes, machineguns and sea mines into one pint-sized warcraft. With their size, speed and manueverability they bring naval warfare into knife-fighting range. From fast naval action to beach invasions to fierce jungle combat, Invasion of the Philippines brings a new intensity to the battlefield.

Article Date: 12/1/2012
We've all heard the assessment, "He's his own worst enemy." But the retort, "Not as long as I'm alive," often attributed to British politician Ernest Bevin, is the type of clever "needling" I've always admired.
I'm impressed with folks who can come up with clever and quick answers. I usually come up with great answers — only problem is it's two hours later.
"This instrument measures the curvature of your cornea, and is accurate within 1/200,000 of an inch," I told a college professor as I was using the keratometer on him. I had found that explaining tests to patients as I performed them, seemed to impress most of them. But not with this bozo. He obviously interpreted it as me giving him a snow job.
"Obviously, that much accuracy is not necessary," he replied. I thought of a good reply, "Perhaps so, but I'd prefer to err on the side of too much accuracy rather than too little." But it was two hours later after he was long gone.
Many of history's greats have been expert at the clever remark. We can learn from them.
► "Mr. Douglas accuses me of being two-faced," said Abraham Lincoln during a presidential campaign debate. "Obviously this is not true. If I had two faces, do you think I'd be wearing this one?"
► "I've had a wonderful evening," said Groucho Marx to his disastrous date for the evening. "But this wasn't it!"
I've been hooked more than once by something that started as what I saw as a compliment, only to turn into an insult.
► "Thank you for the book!" wrote a journalist friend after I sent him a copy of my latest book. "I shall waste no time reading it." I was flattered that he looked forward to reading it so much, that he intended to waste no time before doing so. Until I realized that it also could mean that he didn't plan to waste any of his time in reading it.
► "Your book has been invaluable to Julia and me," said my former friend, Fred Dent.
"Thank you," I responded gratefully — until his continuation.
"Our kitchen table has one leg that wobbles. But we've found that your book is exactly the right thickness to put under the short leg."
► "I wasn't able to attend his funeral," said Mark Twain, "but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it."
And then there are the "zingers," the quick witted answers.
► "You're not going to forget me, are you sir," said the hotel doorman as he held out his hand for the customary tip, as Robert Benchley departed. This doorman had completely ignored Benchley during his stay, been rude, and no help whatsoever. Benchley seized his extended hand, shook it vigorously, and said, "Of course not!!! I'll write every day."
► Reportedly Winston Churchill didn't get along with the Astors. At a function, Lady Astor said to him, "You're disgustingly drunk!"
(And Churchill probably was.)
"And you are disgustingly ugly!" said Churchill. "But tomorrow I'll be sober, and you'll still be ugly." OM

Flotation Can Expedite Juice Clarification, Improve Quality

Oct 2012 Issue of Wine Business Monthly
Winemakers are showing renewed interest in flotation, a juice clarification technology that offers potential benefits compared with more common clarification processes. Clarification, the removal of suspended solids from pressed juice prior to fermentation, is primarily performed on juice for white and Rosé wine production. Clarification can enable more efficient fermentation, result in wine with cleaner and fruitier aromas and reduce the danger of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) formation. Comm...

PROJECT EARTH DAY: EGB Eco Fashion Show
Posted By Jill Fehrenbacher On April 22, 2007 @ 3:02 pm In Accessories and Fashion,Design,New York City,sustainable style sundays | 6 Comments
Anyone who has been reading Inhabitat for awhile knows that we love our eco-fashion here – almost as much as we love green building. Fashion and architecture don't often get mentioned in the same breathe, but happily, this past week we were able to see the green architecture and the green fashion worlds come together to celebrate Earth Day in an eco-fashion show put on by the Emerging Green Builders (EGB) Chapter of NYC [2]. "Project Earth Day" [3], as it was called, was put together to showcase the latest in sustainable apparel and textile designs by up and coming designers.
We attended the fashion show on Thursday night and had a great time checking out the latest and greatest examples of sustainable fashion from NYC designers such as Nature Vs. Future [4], Bahar Sharpar [5] and Covet [6].
The highlight of the evening was the student fashion show [7], which you can read more on Inhabitat here > [7] Our very own Jill Danyelle [8] was one of the esteemed judges – along with Jennifer Busch from Contract Magazine [9], Christian Larsen from MoMA [10], Randy Fahey from Gensler [11], and Margaret Lydecker from GreenDrinksNYC [12].

What does green architecture have to do with sustainable style – you might ask? Organizers Molly Garretson and Amber Nelson explained it this way: there has been an upswell of interest in green design everywhere this year – in green building even more than green fashion. Sustainability is an issue that cuts across all design disciplines and in fact, brings disciplines together under common strategies and a common purpose. "EGBNY members are young, creative professionals in the building, architecture and interior design fields," says Molly Garretson, EGBNY member and the fashion show liaison. "We wanted to throw an event that would not only be fun, but would bring together similar creative, eco-conscious people in another yet related area of design."
Since we are avid believers in the philsophy that design is design – and architects should be interested in fashion, and fashionistas should be interested in architecture – we were obviously very happy about the interdisciplinary collaboration that came together in Project Earth Day.

In terms of green architecture on display, we were extremely impressed with Amber Nelson's thoughtful and meticulously green design for the whole space – including an eco catwalk made from 100% recycled plastics from milk jugs and soda bottles, supported by shipping pallets that went straight back to the warehouse for reuse after the show.
The gorgeous runway backdrop was constructed entirely out of bamboo, cardboard roles and waste textiles, while the eye-catching cardboard podium is a simple DIY flat-pack design constructed of cardboard found on the streets of Park Slope, Brooklyn. Kudos to Amber on setting a terrific example for event/interiors designers everywhere. If only all green events went to this level of detail.

Like Learning A Foreign Language At FirstI started studying ACIM during the late 80's, but I realize now that I was only scratching the surface for many years. Only recently have I really began to 'grok' what the Course is teaching. One really needs to be dedicated to changing one's perception and thus see the world in a much different way, free of suffering and striving. It is all about perceiving how the ego self incessantly filters our world view causing us to feel seperate and limited, when in fact we are infinite and integrated into the ONENESS from which we derive our very being.
"but I realize now that I was only scratching the surface for many years."

Yep, I know how that goes. I studied the course from 2004 to 2011, and then, I started up again, right now 2012. (I'm doing the ACIM all over agin, this time, more diligently.)

I'm doing it again, because I really want to understand these lessons, I really do want to see the world differently, I really do want to understand the nature of a miracle, I really do want to be that person who's like, oh, yeah, it was so obvious all along, nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists, herein lies the peace of God, duh!

But right now it's not like that. Instead of duh, it's like huh? I'm wondering does it ever really, fully, completely takes? And if I have to ask, will I ever get there?
I already did. That's where I found out that 99.9% of you are still into the Forgiveness-to-destroy attitude with a spiritualized ego. Keep looking in.
Nevertheless I find Liz Cronkite''s blog very enlightening and eye opening
And also btw, The Course IS about finding and maintaining peace...in any situation. I'm not going to go into great detail but in the 70's I experienced an emotional drying with no thoughts going on. I didn't know what it was then but I do now...it was ego death. No "I" so Liz is right this is about ridding yourself of the emotional charges so you don't have to feel any discomfort or react to them in any way. This the way addictions work and why the ego is a living type entity. Very ugly too btw. My time on Ep has been about "why" when there is no "why" there just IS...Acceptance in any situation so I'm about done here anyway at Ep.
I can go on and on but I simply find her experience simply resonates with mine the teachings of Jacob Glass as well google him.
Be well.
The more I study the Course (for the past 4 years) the less I am finding peace. I find it extremely hard to turn inward to Truth when the world of illusion - even though an illusion - continually throws up problems. In my case, the problems aren't even mine, but others that I care about.
Don't you find that some people will walk all over you if you let them.
That's right of course, but it is easier said than done and, it doesn't matter if you are able to continually turn to Truth, you are still here in this world. But on a day to day basis, how do you deal with people who just want to take advantage of your good nature? Do you just stand there, loving them? And, if so, what is their response?
You're right, of course.
So true. I picked up studing the Course just 3 years ago but since then i already realized that it is more about unlearning what we think we know about life than about learning anything new.
Did you carry on studying the Course?

U.S. Rep. Rick Renzi was wiretapped by one of his former aides during a federal investigation into a land deal that led to the third-term Arizona congressman's indictment on extortion and other charges.
The role of that congressional staffer and others is disclosed in a motion filed by Renzi's attorneys, who seek to have much of the government's evidence thrown out because they say the FBI violated constitutional shields protecting lawmakers from interference in their official actions.
The U.S. District Court motion says Joanne Keene, Renzi's former legislative director, cooperated with the FBI by secretly recording phone conversations with her ex-boss concerning the land transaction.
The motion also alleges that FBI agents improperly questioned Keene and other ex-Renzi staffers, as well as one working for him at the time, about his role in the land-swap deal. The FBI then used that information to secure search warrants and a court-approved wiretap of the congressman's phone, the motion says.
The new revelations add intrigue to a case that includes sealed FBI tapes of conversations between the Republican lawmaker and other members of Congress, including Rep. John Shadegg, R-Ariz.
Patrick "Wyn" Hornbuckle, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Phoenix, said prosecutors will not comment except through a court response later this month.
A federal grand jury indicted Renzi in February on extortion, conspiracy, money-laundering and other charges in connection with a federal swap of public land for private property. Prosecutors allege that Renzi pressured participants to include land owned by James Sandlin, a former business partner to whom he was indebted. He also is accused of embezzling money from his insurance company's trust fund and using it to finance his first House campaign. Renzi pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The defense team's challenge of evidence mirrors recent court arguments made by other members of Congress who have been targeted by criminal inquiries. The cases expose a gray area in the separation of powers under U.S. law.
The motion, filed Wednesday by a defense team that includes attorney Brian Heberlig, says agents conducted at least 15 interviews last year with Keene and three former chiefs of staff who had worked for Renzi: Karen Lynch, James Jayne and Kevin Messner. The motion says another legislative aide, Nicholas Strader, was interviewed in 2006 while he was still on the congressman's staff.
"During these interviews, the government improperly questioned Renzi's aides," Heberlig asserts. "The government also directed Keene and proponents of the land-exchange legislation to secretly record their telephone conversations with Congressman Renzi and to question him about his legislative acts."
Renzi has declined interview requests.
Jayne, the only former aide who could be reached, confirmed speaking with FBI agents but said he spent only a short time on Renzi's staff.
"I answered their questions and shared what I could," he said, adding that he was not asked to record any calls.
In court papers, Heberlig says the interviews and recordings violated the Speech or Debate clause of the U.S. Constitution, which shields members of Congress from legislative- or executive-branch interference when they are acting within the "legitimate legislative sphere."
Because a judge approved wiretaps and search warrants based on the initial interviews and bug recordings, the motion says, all evidence gained by those means should be dismissed.
The FBI bugging was authorized by a judge with provisions that Renzi's legislative conversations wouldn't be recorded unless they involved the land-swap measure. The defense contends that no exemption is allowed under the Constitution, so even a congressman's criminal conduct is shielded.
If that position prevails, federal prosecutors could be blocked from using most of the evidence against Renzi related to the land-swap charges. They also may be barred from using evidence in the campaign-finance portion of the case if those materials were obtained with tainted search warrants or wiretaps.
The government has not yet submitted a response to the motion but is expected to argue that criminal acts such as extortion are exempt from the Speech or Debate clause.
Similar legal disputes erupted in several other corruption probes where members of Congress are under indictment or targeted by investigators.
One pivotal case involves Rep. William Jefferson, D-La., indicted last year involving bribery after FBI agents searched his office. An appellate court in Washington, D.C., decided that the search violated legislative immunity. The Supreme Court rejected a Justice Department appeal despite claims by prosecutors that such a ruling would stymie ongoing corruption cases.
Lawyers for Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, sought to have wiretap and video evidence against him dismissed last month based on the Speech or Debate clause.
The same argument is expected to play a role in the bribery inquiry involving lobbyist Jack Abramoff, former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas, and at least three other members of Congress.
In Renzi's case, the defense motion says FBI agents also "inexplicably" recorded at least 18 phone conversations where the congressman was speaking with House colleagues. Those transcripts, which remain sealed, could lead to further court battles over disclosure.
Finally, the motion alleges that agents recorded a call between Renzi and a high-ranking Department of Homeland Security official regarding classified terrorism intelligence.
"The volume of protected legislative acts seized during the wiretap is staggering," the brief concludes. "The court should suppress all evidence seized during the unconstitutional wiretap."
U.S. District Judge Bernardo Velasco has scheduled a hearing on those issues for Nov. 24 at the District Court in Tucson.

I'm trying to locate the zip file that contains the OTA update for my Droid Bionic. Right now, its failing to update, and every time it fails it deletes the file and I need to re-download it (takes a long time). I was hoping to save off the update so I could try a few things on my phone and try the update. I read online its somewhere in a /cache directory, however I dont see anything at all when I mount it to the PC and do a search for cache or even "*.zip". Does anyone know how I can find the zip file? Maybe I need to change the PC settings or something to search for it (I have changed the folder settings to view hidden files and system files).
Two pieces of ground I want to cover here:
Alternatively, you can flash an FXZ rom image for your current version or later. The benefit of that is that it doesn't matter what state your phone is in or if its missing bloatware that the OTA update requires.
Things you need:
I had a similar issue when updating from 902 to 905. I followed the two pages of instructions in the below-linked article to get me to 905: http://androidadvices.com/update-motorola-droid-bionic-latest-59905-firmware/
Good luck!

Alternate Project
PA ID# 051-99051-00; Jefferson Parrish
PW ID# 12665; Alternate Project
Citation: FEMA-1603-DR-LA, Jefferson Parish, Hazard Alternate Project
Project Worksheet (PW) 12665
Reference: Alternate Project
Summary: On October 18, 2007, the Jefferson Parish (Applicant) requested an alternate project to demolish the Jefferson Parrish Courthouse, over two years after the kick-off meeting. The State sent the letter to FEMA on March 12, 2008. On
May 12, 2008, the State of Louisiana Division of Historic Preservation determined that the Jefferson Parish Courthouse was eligible for listing on the National Register for Historic Places. FEMA de-obligated PW 12665 on
June 9, 2008, because the Applicant demolished the Jefferson Parish Courthouse in April 2008, before FEMA could complete the statutory required review under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The Regional Administrator sustained that finding on October 21, 2008. The Applicant contended that FEMA knew about the demolition since August 2007, delayed the review and did not inform it that there were historic preservation issues prior to demolishing the Jefferson Parish courthouse. The Applicant said it relied on general comments that the historical preservation specialists made and comments that FEMA officials made in meeting notes and the case management file to support its argument that FEMA knew about the demolition. The Applicant did not provide any new information in the second appeal.
Issue: Is the Applicant eligible for reimbursement for funds to demolish the Jefferson Parish Courthouse?
Finding: No.
Rationale: Section 406 (c) of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act; 44 CFR § 206.203(d)(2) Alternate Project; Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act Historic Preservation

Reaction and Recommendations
In an accompanying Lancet opinion piece, James Whitworth of the London School Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and Kirsten Hewitt of the Health Protection Agency Centre For Infections write that "better integration of health services" for HIV and malaria is "crucial" if even a small increase in the likelihood of HIV transmission occurs when a person contracts malaria, according to SciDev.Net/AllAfrica.com. Whitworth and Hewitt write that viral loads reported in the study might equate to about a 50% increase in the likelihood of HIV transmission, according to SciDev.Net. However, Neil French of the Malawi-Liverpool Wellcome Trust laboratories said discovering the "exact interaction" between HIV and malaria would be difficult because of ethical concerns given that potential study participants would be required to abstain from treatment for both diseases, according to SciDev.Net. French recommended that disease control programs "come together to provide a comprehensive package of care," including providing bed nets to HIV-positive people to reduce the chance of contracting malaria, SciDev.Net reports (Shetty, SciDev.Net, 1/20).

On Friday October 28th at 9:00 pm, Miami City Ballet will be coming into your living room by way of PBS's Great Performances: Dance in America. (Check your local listings). For this evening of dance, Miami City Ballet Dances Balanchine and Tharp, the company will showcase a broad range of strengths: precise classical ballet technique in George Balanchine's Square Dance, contemporary athleticism with Twyla Tharp's Golden Section, and neo-classical ballet with a western flare in George Balanchine's Western Symphony. This program was filmed last September, during which I shared my experiences from the filming here on TENDUS. After the filming...Read More
The Miami City Ballet dancers love ballet and we love our jobs. But that doesn't mean that we don't look forward to the end of the season. It is only understandable right? This doesn't make us bad people! I mean, just look back at what we had crammed into the past 8 months: We started our season with a four -month crash course of John Cranko's Romeo and Juliet. We then spent two weeks filming three ballets for PBS' Great Performances: Dance in America, Balanchine's Square Dance, Tharp's Golden Section, and Balanchine's Western Symphony. Then we hit the stage with Program I in October, followed by a nice long run of Nutcracker. After...Read More
I am so excited to bring you the second installment of my interview with Matthew Diamond, the Director of Miami City Ballet's PBS premier. Find out more about his work in his own words. What was the biggest challenge you faced during this process? I feel I must get to the same level of proficiency (from my point of view) that the dancers have. Since the company has been steeped in these ballets for years, and I have been at this for just several weeks, the pressure is greatest in playing catch-up. How long will it take you to edit the film and what will that process involve? Three weeks, more or less, with my brilliant editor, Girish Bhargava, whom I...Read More
I am so pleased to bring you an interview with the man who directed Miami City Ballet's PBS special "Great Performances: Dance In America", Matthew Diamond. Mr. Diamond approached me in the studios after reading my first post about the PBS filming. He was very interested in it and told me he would be happy to answer any questions that I had. Not only did he reach out to me, he tried to reach out to all the dancers and get to know them all on a personal level during the time we worked with him. By the end it seemed that he knew every dancers name. He would come up on stage in between takes for pep talks during the...Read More
That's a Wrap! (O.K. well not quite yet, but we sure are getting close!) It is an hour into the last day of filming for Miami City Ballet's PBS special, "Great Performances: Dance In America." Today the finale of Square Dance is being filmed and everyone is getting a little antsy! (While everyone was getting ready we were watching Saturday Night Live videos on Hulu!) So today as a wrap-up post (pun totally intended), I am going to answer a few of the questions that readers have sent in to me through email and twitter: What is the theme of the program? I assume it's not "Balanchine"...Read More
We are approaching the end! The dancers have completed shooting for the boys dance in Balanchine's Square Dance, and they are currently spacing the girls dance. The boys did their dance four times full-out, straight through, in 45 minutes. For anyone out there who has danced this ballet, you will know that that is no small feat. But they all survived, and now onto the hardest part for the girls! All that is left for tomorrow: the male principal's solo and the finale. Our physical therapist and stage manager fashioned some artistic posters to keep the dancers up beat! There are some in the wings and in the warm-up area. Here are a few of my...Read More
