It all started when Ron and Carol Eisenberg left the harsh winter life in Cleveland, OH to sunny San Diego, CA with their three kids and two dogs in tow. Ron, a pharmacist by trade, and Carol, greeting card department buyer, decided to open their own retail store called Great News! selling functional housewares and alternative greeting cards. In the 1990s, based on the trends and interest from his customers, Ron decided to focus on cookware and kitchen items. Around the same time, Carol was diagnosed with stage-4 terminal breast cancer. Ron began to research and learned to cook macrobiotic diets to help his wife fight the cancer. In May 1996, Carol passed away. Ron threw himself into the business to build his first cooking school, which is part of what Great News! is all about. During construction, he met Devora Safran. Devora is an artist, designer, and great home cook who loves to entertain. In 2002, Ron and Devon tied the knot. Together, along with a healthy list of contributors, they put together, Great Food! From Great News! Cooking School cookbook. One well known contributor is executive chef for SOL (Newport Beach, CA and Scottsdale, AZ) and Solita (Huntington Beach, CA), Chef Deborah Schneider.
The introduction is chocked full of information for the novice to the seasoned cooked – A Well-Stocked Pantry, Basic Cooking Methods, Useful Terms & Tips, and Measurement Equivalents. The book is broken up by season and then by menus.
In the Summer – Cooking with Beer section, Guinness Chocolate Brownies sounded scrumptious! From seeing sweet recipes and decadent concoctions made with Guinness, I definitely had to give this recipe a try. This recipe was created by Chef Phillis Carey. The recipe was fairly easy. If you don't have a standing mixer, you'll definitely need a helper in the kitchen with you when incorporating the wet and dry ingredients together. Helpful hint for the chopped chocolate, put your chocolate bars in a Ziploc bag and use a meat tenderizer or mallet to break into smaller pieces for the melting process. The brownies were a little crumbly, but had the texture of a chocolate truffle. The beer flavor was very subtle, but actually enhanced the dark chocolate flavor. The semisweet chocolate chips were a great touch, not too sweet. Vanilla bean ice cream was the perfect pairing adding cold creaminess to the mix. Whipped cream would also be a good choice too. Thumbs up!
In the Autumn – Party in a Pot (for slow cookers and crock pots) section, Slow Cooker Brisket with Fruits sounded fun and easy. This recipe was created by Chef Diane Phillips, also known as the "Diva of Do-Ahead". I love cooking with my crock pot. Put a bunch of great food in a pot in the morning, set it on low for the whole day, come home from work and dinner is ready. Nothing better than that! I love that the recipe calls to sear and caramelize the outside of the brisket before it goes into the crock pot. You might wonder why you have to do that, but once you see the final result, you'll know why. It has the look of slow-smoked BBQ when it's done. The only thing I did not do in this recipe was trim as much fat off of the brisket as called for. I personally like the flavor the fat layer imparts on brisket so I left it on. The brisket, when done, will almost fall apart so if you want to have the brisket sliced, let the meat rest for a while in a foil lined pan. The things I would add: more salt to the braising liquid to enhance the beef flavor and counteract the sweetness of the fruit and red potatoes into the crock pot as a ready-made starch side. If you don't like brisket, you could also use pork loin roast. The fruit flavors would pair nicely. Thumbs up, way up!
In the Autumn – Do-Ahead Appetizers Party section, Baked Brie with Apricots and Dried Cranberries sounded fancy and elegant. This recipe was also created by Chef Diane Phillips. I've always wanted to try making a recipe like this. You'll sometimes see this as an appetizer at a fancy restaurant. Remember to thaw your puff pastry dough in the refrigerator the night before. Once the dough is thawed, the prep is very simple and easy. Hopefully, your brie doesn't escape your puff pastry while baking and you'll end up with a golden brown crust and cheesy goodness inside. The creamy cheese and slightly bitter rind matched perfectly with the apricot preserves and dried cranberries. I would probably cut the amount of apricot preserves and dried cranberries in half next time. It was a little too sweet for me and made it seem dessert-like instead of savory. Adding pine nuts, sliced almonds, or some cinnamon would make wonderful additions. Thumbs up!
There are so many recipes suited for so many occasions, Great Food! will be a keeper in your cookbook collection.

In a cleanly installed Ubuntu Raring machine I am trying to perform a
debootstrap of another system. Here's the exact command:
http_proxy=http://192.168.122.1:8000/ debootstrap --arch=amd64 raring /mnt/virtfs-test/
It runs fine, but almost at the end it failed:
I: Extracting zlib1g...
W: Failure trying to run: chroot /mnt/virtfs-test mount -t proc proc /proc
W: See /mnt/virtfs-test/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details
The log file shows only this:

chroot: failed to run command 'mount': Permission denied
That made me curious on why this would fail. I noticed I couldn't even chroot into there:
chroot /mnt/virtfs-test
chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': Permission denied
That led me to this ServerFault Q&A and I made this interesting discovery:
# ls -al /mnt/virtfs-test/lib64/

drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 Feb 7 2013 ..
---------- 1 root 123 0 Aug 21 20:02 ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
What? The file is not a link, it is empty and does not have any permission set? This makes no sense. So I linked the file as in the SF Q&A:
ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.17.so /mnt/virtfs-test/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
Now I can chroot:
# chroot /mnt/virtfs-test
groups: cannot find name for group ID 0
I have no name!@mymachine:/#
However, I am still curious as to why debootstrap failed. I am using debootstrap version
1.0.46ubuntu1 which is the fully updated version in Ubuntu Raring. I am unable to find any bugreport regarding this.
Does anybody have a clue?
- I performed all commands being fully root (
sudo -i).
The filesystem I try to debootstrap onto is type
9p(VirtFS, inside a Ubuntu KVM virtual machine). I am not seeing any messages on the host machine after enabling this in the apparmor profile (
/etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/libvirt-qemuon the host):

Darchinyan retains throne with TKO over Arce
DeMarco stops Diamond
Ringside by Rocco Morales & Francisco Salazar
Photos by Big Joe Miranda
In a highly anticipated grudge match, unified IBF/WBA/WBC Super Flyweight Champion, Vic "Raging Bull" Darchinyan accepted the challenge of four time world champion and current interim WBA Superflyweight Champion, Jorge "Travieso" Arce.
There was no love lost between these two fighters who had their moments during the weeks leading up to the showdown. The 29 year old Arce, a winner of 31 of his last 32 fights, with 20 of those fights either being for a world championship belt or elimination fights for a world championship belt, hoped to be able to pull off a minor upset over the powerful Darchinyan.
Darchinyan, after unexpectedly losing his IBF Flyweight Championship to Nonito Donaire in July, 2007, has since been nearly invincible, going 4-0-1 including winning the IBF Superflyweight Championship with a convincing victory over Dmitri Kirilov, and then unifying the IBF/WBA/WBC Super Flyweight Championships with a crushing one-sided knockout victory over Cristian Mijares last November.
Coming into this fight, just as he did prior to the fight against Mijares, Darchinyan promised victory over Arce, and despite being four years older than Arce seemed to be the younger and fresher fighter.
Before a highly charged crowd made up of Latino fight fans who came out to support Arce, and Armenian fight fans who came out in support of the Australian based Darchinyan, both fighters entered the ring in what promised to be a brutal showdown.
From the opening bell, Darchinyan seemed to be both the faster and the stronger puncher and his unorthodox style seemed to leave Arce with few openings. Arce, in the opening rounds was peppered with Darchinyan's punishing lead left cross and uppercuts.
In the third round, Arce finally started to show some life, connecting a few times to the head of Darchinyan with right crosses, but Darchinyan refused to give any ground and even launched a couple of hook/uppercut hybrid punches similar to "The Smash" punch made famous by one time heavyweight contender, Donovan "Razor" Ruddock, missing each time but definitely keeping Arce on his toes.
Rounds four and five had very good back and forth action and were probably Arce's best of the fight, although he was never able to hurt Darchinyan.
By round six, Darchinyan reassumed control of the fight as his wicked left crosses and uppercuts continued taking their toll against the much weaker and slower Arce.
The next few rounds were more of the same, but to his credit, Arce never backed down and did all he could in his attempt to win the fight. However, against the very determined and relentless Darchinyan, it was not enough, as Darchinyan started racking up the points by winning round after round after round, all while Darchinyan was also trying his best to not leave the decision in the hands of the judges but rather tried to knockout Arce.
By the start of the tenth round, Arce had a look on him that suggested that he was well behind and that he knew he needed a knockout to win the fight. Showing the mettle of a true champion, Arce subjected himself to further punishment by Darchinyan while he tried, in a futile effort, to turn the tide. Instead, this only opened up Arce to further punishment.
Going into the eleventh round, Arce now had the look of a beaten fighter and his world only got much worse as he suffered a major cut over his eye, blaming a headbutt. For the remainder of the round, blood poured from above his eye as Arce struggled to see the dangerous punches coming from all directions from Darchinyan. Although Arce managed to survive the round, he really took a lot of punishment, especially in the tenth and eleventh rounds.
Prior to the start of the 12th and final round, the referee, upon advice of the ringside doctor stopped the fight, making Darchinyan the victor by TKO at 3:00 of the eleventh round.
With the loss, Arce may be best served signing up for more Mexican television gigs as he has now been fighting professionally for 13 years and despite not even being 30 yet, has taken a lot of wear and tear.
With the victory, Darchinyan cements his claim on being the best super flyweight in the world and seemingly looks invincible in the Super Flyweight division although WBO Super Flyweight Champion, Fernando Montiel, may disagree. –Rocco Morales
Demarco stops Diamond
In the co-feature bout, Antonio DeMarco stopped Almazbek "Kid Diamond" Raiymkulov after the ninth round of a scheduled 12-round bout.
DeMarco won a close 10 round split-decision victory over Jose Reyes in his last fight. Not only was this his first scheduled 12-round fight, but it was against his most difficult opponent on paper. His most impressive victory to date was a 10-round unanimous decision victory over Nick Casal in September of 2007.
Raiymkulov had won his last seven bouts in a row since an October 2005 stoppage at the hands of Nate Campbell. Raiymkulov had not fought since a September majority decision victory over former world champion Javier Jauregui.
It was a chess match at the beginning of the fight as the southpaw DeMarco threw and landed short left hands to the head. Raiymkulov did his best to counter with right hands.
Both fighters suffered cuts in the opening rounds. Raiymkulov had a cut above his right eye in the second round, while DeMarco had a cut opened in the third round over his left eye by an accidental head butt.
Raiymkulov attempted to bait DeMarco into throwing punches in an attempt to counter to the head. His plan worked at times as he landed hard right hands to the head of DeMarco, who took the punches well.
Beginning in the seventh, DeMarco began to be more active and would let his hands go more. He connected more across the head and at times finished with right hooks to the body.
Raiymkulov attempted to use angles and his awkward style to land lead right hands to the head. However, he began to slow down and his punch output dropped noticeably.
DeMarco controlled the ninth round as he landed hard shots across the head of Raiymkulov. Sensing Raiymkulov could be hurt, DeMarco pressed the action and punished his opponent with more left hands across the head.
After the round ended, the ringside physician checked Raiymkulov and allowed for the bout to continue. However, Raiymkulov decided to quit. Word was Raiymkulov felt weak because he contracted a cold yesterday (Friday).
Entering the 10th round, one judge had Raiymkulov winning the bout 86-85, while the other two judges scored the bout 88-83 for DeMarco. Fightnews.com had the bout scored 86-85 for Raiymkulov.
DeMarco, from Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, improves to 21-1-1, 15 KO's. Raiymkulov, from Las Vegas, NV, drops to 27-2-1, 15 KO's. With the victory, DeMarco won a regional title and positions himself for another decent payday. –Francisco Salazar
Martirosyan still undefeated
2004 Olympian, Vanes "The Nightmare" Martirosyan, 22-0 (14 KO's), from Glendale, CA, hoped to open 2009 with a big statement over journeyman, Billy Lyell, 18-6 (3 KO's), from Youngstown, Ohio.
Lyell was likely serving as nothing more than a measuring stick for Martirosyan since he has fought top competition in other contenders including James Kirkland and David Lopez, suffering knockout losses to each of them.
However, Lyell would never come close to being knocked out in this fight by Martirosyan, and the only "Nightmare" witnessed by fans was the boring fight that took place in the ring, as Martirosyan seemed to do just enough to win the majority of the rounds, but not much more.
It would later be reported from ringside that Martirosyan possibly hurt his hand in the opening round, but hurt hand or not, Martirosyan did not impress and even the large Armenian base of fans in attendance had little to cheer about in this fight.
There were no knockdowns in the fight and neither fighter was seriously hurt. To his credit, Lyell put on a spirited performance, seemingly giving it his all, but was outclassed by Martirosyan who took a unanimous decision victory by scores of 79-73, 78-74, 80-72.
FightNews reluctantly had Martirosyan winning the contest by a 78-74 margin and with the victory Martirosyan has now been taken the distance in three out of his last four fights and with four full years as a professional he seems to be taking quite a bit of time in developing into a true contender for the super middleweight championship. –Rocco Morales
Henry stops Martinez
Middleweight Omar Henry stopped Francisco Martinez in the first round of a scheduled four round bout.
A left hook to the head by Henry hurt Martinez. Henry followed it up by landing a right hand that backed Martinez against the ropes. Henry then landed a three-punch combination that ended with a right to the head that dropped Martinez to the canvas.
Referee Tony Crebs did not bother to count and waved the fight over at 57 seconds of the round.
Henry, from Houston, TX, improves to 3-0, 3 KO's. Martinez, from Moreno Valley, CA, falls to 0-3. –Francisco Salazar
Kauffman stops Couser
Heavyweight Travis Kauffman stopped Cliff Couser, who has now lost his last seven bouts in a row, in the first round of a scheduled six round bout.
Kauffman fought just three weeks, when he knocked out Ken Murphy in the second round of a scheduled six round bout. In December, he stopped Malachy Farrell in the third round of a bout that was broadcast on Showtime.
He wasted no time taking the fight to Couser, whose last victory was a surprising stoppage over Monte Barrett. A double uppercut by Kauffman seemed to stun Couser. Kauffman went after Couser, landing vicious hooks and crosses to the body.
Couser did little to fight back and looked to survive. Suddenly, Couser's corner threw in the towel, prompting referee Jerry Cantu to step in and stop the bout at 2:41.
Kauffman, from Reading, PA, improves to 16-0, 13 KO's. Couser, from Las Vegas, NV, falls to 26-18-2, 14 KO's. –Francisco Salazar
Avalos defeats Daniels
In an eight-round bantamweight contest, undefeated Chris Avalos (8-0, 6 KO's) from San Diego, took on his most experienced opponent to date in Torrance Daniels (12-8-1, 5KO's) from Denver, Colo.
Avalos, who turned pro just 12 months ago, came in off a very successful 2008 that saw him rack up all eight of his wins to dat and he wasted little time in getting started with tougher opposition to start 2009 in Daniels.
In an action-packed first round, Avalos asserted his power while Daniels showed that he was not just going to roll over but, rather, was a live opponent. Avalos showed ring savvy in mixing in hard body shots, in addition to the power punching to the head of Daniels to win the first round.
Round two saw Daniels come out strongly, but it only proved an opportunity for Avalos to show off his power punching skills, first by knocking Daniels mouthpiece out, and then after a brief timeout by the referee to attend to the mouthpiece, Avalos was able to pin Daniels on the ropes as the two traded left hooks. Trading left hooks with Avalos proved to be risky business and Daniels was dropped hard to the canvas but managed to beat the count of the referee and survived the round.
The middle rounds saw good back and forth action with Daniels able to land some good clean shots, if not win a couple rounds, but with Avalos continuing to wear down the resilient Daniels.
The beginning of the end for Daniels came in Round 7, when he proved to be too gentlemanly for the sport, dropping his hands when he and Avalos engaged in a self-imposed break. Upon the break, Daniels was floored by a hard overhand right from Avalos. Daniels, down for the second time in the fight, beat the count, bitterly complained to the referee to no avail and then continued to fight on.
However, after the second knockdown, it seemed as if there was no more wind in the sails of Daniels and he was battered about the ring by the relentless Avalos.
Prior to the 8th round, after consulting with the ringside doctor, the referee called an end to the fight, making Avalos the victor by TKO victory at 3:00 of Round 7. With the impressive victory, Avalos moves to a perfect 9-0 (7ko's), while Daniels suffers only the second knockout of his career and drops his fourth in a row to fall to 12-9 (5 KO's). – Rocco Morales
- Super bantamweight champion Israel Vazquez, heavyweight contender James Toney, super lightweight champion Timothy Bradley, super flyweight champion Fernando Montiel, heavyweight contender Chris Arreola, super welterweight contender Alfredo Angulo, bantamweight contender Yonnhy Perez, unbeaten Super lightweight Omar Chavez, former heavyweight champion Michael Moorer, and former world champion Genaro Hernandez, and former flyweight fighter-turned -promoter Kahren Harutyunyan caught the action from ringside.
- Ironically, the last time Arce fought at the Honda Center was two years ago. He dictated and had his way with Julio David Roque Ler, winning a wide unanimous decision.
- Attendance was 5,450.
- Gus Johnson and Al Bernstein called the action from ringside for Showtime.
- Ring announcer was Jimmy Lennon, Jr.

This is my diary of broken dreams
A monument over me, page after page
Twists my mind with grief
What I should but never did
How could I ever be so wrong?
Crucified upon an empty sand glass
My life is gone, I am none
Sentence to mediocrity
Sentence by myself
Forgotten, forsaken, frustrated
When nothing more remains
Forgotten, forsaken, wasted
I am in vain
I had a life I had a dream
Places to go where I'd never been
Visions so brutally ruined
'Cos I didn't dare to try
Forgotten, forsaken, frustrated
When nothing more remains
Forgotten, forsaken, wasted
I am in vain
Am I in vain? Wasted, broken, trying
People spend their life
Regretting the things they never did
All those times they turned away
Was yet another dream unfulfilled
What I should I never did
How could I be so wrong?
How could I be so wrong?
Was I ever right?

LG Remarq LN240 QWERTY phone coming to Sprint
LG has announced some of the phones that it plans to showcase at CTIA Wireless 2010 (which debuts tomorrow), and it looks like there are only tow new devices among them: LG Remark LN240 for Sprint, and another handset for Verizon.
The LG Remark LN240 has a landscape display (probably QVGA) and a vertical sliding QWERTY keyboard. Its other features are not know, and neither are its price and release date via Sprint.
There's also a new phone for Verizon, but LG didn't announce its name – it's horizontal slider resembling the LG Rumor.
Update: Sprint announced that the LG LN240 is actually called LG Remarq (not Remark, as LG says in its press release). The phone is an eco-friendly one and will be sold starting May 9 for free with a 2-yr contract agreement. The LG Remarq features MP3 player, stereo Bluetooth, 1.3MP camera and easy access to Facebook and Photobucket. You can get notified on when the LG Remarq becomes available here.
Other phones that LG will showcase at CTIA 2010: LG GT540, LG GW620, LG GS500 Cookie Plus, LG Expo GW820, LG GW550 and LG GM750.
The South Korean company will also present an LTE terminal and demonstrate features like HD video, video conferencing and fast Web surfing.

I had landed a job writing for a big New York City based aviation magazine in the 1970s. I had grown up and learned to fly in the Cleveland area so I wasn't exactly a small town boy, but New York was still a new experience in almost every way.
I was flying with a much more experienced pilot returning home from one event or another. The chance to fly with experienced pilots instead of being tossed into the system on my own was one of the luckiest breaks I have had in a fortunate life.
We had to drop a passenger off at La Guardia. I don't remember why. Probably because the person had airlined out of there and had left a car in the parking lot and needed to retrieve it. In those days GA airplanes landed at La Guardia, Kennedy, Newark and other major airline airports pretty routinely.
The FAA had allowed the New York airports to slap a big landing fee on GA at the three major airports during prime time hours. Prime time was 5 am until 11 pm, as I recall. Pretty much the whole time anybody was flying. And the fee, I think, was one hundred bucks. A lot of money still, but when you consider New York prices for cabs, or rental cars, or town cars or however one could get back to La Guardia from one of the GA airports the fee wasn't a huge deterrent.
It was a nice night and New York controllers were using visual approaches. We were returning to New York City from the south and the controllers were talking a mile a minute in what to me was still a strange accent. I heard my call sign and the controller said "go to the statue and then fly 040 degrees."
I keyed the mike and said one of the dumbest things I have broadcast from an airplane. "What statue?"
The New York controller just couldn't resist. He had a rube on the line and set the hook. "The statue. The big one in the harbor. It's a lady holding up a torch. Think you can find it?"
I'm sure others working in what was then called the New York "common IFR room" had a good laugh about the hick in the Baron wanting to go to La Guardia but didn't know what or where the statue was. It had never crossed my mind that the Statue of Liberty could be a navigation fix, especially a fix for a new hot shot IFR pilot.
I remembered that long ago evening when a documentary about the Statue popped up when I was dialing through the channels. The 4th of July is near, and the Statue reopens on that day after damage caused by hurricane Sandy last fall has been repaired.
Though I haven't heard a bad word about the Statue in my lifetime, it was very controversial initially when it arrived from France as a 100th birthday gift for the U.S. But that should surprise none of us. What I did learn is that the real miracle of the Statue, at least to one interested in aircraft design, is the framework that holds the copper skin together and upright.
French artist Frederic Auguste Bartholdi figured out how to shape the copper sheets into the form of the Statue but had no way to hold the many individual pieces together. It was Gustave Eiffel who designed a framework of iron beams and spars that supported each piece of the copper skin independently. Eiffel's structure allows the Statue to flex and bend in high winds without stressing individual pieces of skin, or allowing the whole thing to blow over.
Eiffel's frame work is surely a pattern for the airframes that followed, not to mention a tall tower that bears his name. I bet Eiffel would have been very pleased if he could have looked out the window at the long wing of a Boeing flexing dramatically but not breaking in response to turbulence. That's how his framework has kept the Statue standing for more than 125 years through uncounted storms and the worst recorded hurricane in New York history.
I didn't acquire all, or nearly most, of the habits of a New Yorker during our years there, but I did pick up that one affectation of calling it only "the Statue" as though there could not be any other. If a New York controller ever again clears me directly to the Statue, I know where to go.

Looks And Wears GreatI bought these in a hurry one day when I didn't have time to get my nails done,and I am
glad I did. They are so unique and cover the nail beautifully. I do not use the file. I trim them with small scissors, and while holding them, clip them to fit my nails. I had one set that lasted over 2 weeks. I have tried them on toes, but I only like the striped zebra ones on my toes. I keep the extra ones in my purse, in case one peels off. As another reviewer said, be easy when peeling them off. The ones with no jewels tend to last longer. So you have a choice $60 at the salon or 10 packs of these? For money and time, I would go with these!Nov 23, 2012Carol

How To Keep These On??I saw these for $3 at a local store and had to buy them because they were so inexpensive compared to others i've seen. I don't know what i did wrong. But when I file them acrose my fingernails they do not cut right at the endin of my nail and bunched a bit. Over all they were cute, but wouldn't stay on because the fit was awkward. I bought a second type and will try them, maybe i will have better luck. I may youtube a video to see if Im an doing something wrong , They are really cute though and would love if they would stay on!!! as they are supposed to last longer than polish.Oct 19, 2012Christina J. / Sc

The Kansas Bureau of Investigation says a man posing as a law enforcement officer while trying to cash phony checks has recently been spotted in western Kansas.
Several Kansas agencies are searching for 45-year-old Robert Wayne Helms of Pittsburg for allegedly cashing or attempting to cash phony checks in more than 20 cities across the state.
In many of those cases, Helms reportedly identifies himself as an Adams County sheriff's deputy - a county that does not exist - and carries a gun and fake badge.
Helms was most recently seen last Friday in both Russell and Scott City.
According to Kansas Department of Corrections Records, Helms absconded in November after being paroled following a 2011 theft conviction.
Helms has been in and out of prison since 1986, according to records, and has several past forgery and worthless check convictions as well as a kidnapping conviction.
Late last month, Helms contacted law enforcement and stated he is on the run. He should be considered armed and dangerous.
Helms is described as a white man, 45-years-old, about 5 feet, 7 inches tall and weighs approximately 190 pounds. He has blue eyes and short gray hair and is known to wear round glasses. He has recently been seen driving a maroon minivan, possibly a Chrysler or Dodge.
Anybody with information about Helms is asked to call their local police immediately or to contact the KBI at 1-800-KS-CRIME.
Robert Helms has allegedly tried to cash phony checks in the following cities since the beginning of the year:

What is the Green Fund?
The University of Arizona is a living laboratory for sustainability—and laboratories require funding. The Green Fund creates opportunities for students and employees to test innovative solutions to challenges in renewable energy, energy and water efficiency, waste reduction, and environmental sustainability education, research, and outreach.
Approved in March 2010 by the Arizona Board of Regents, the Green Fund is funded by student tuition. Project proposals are reviewed by a 10-member student committee, which allocates its $400,000 yearly budget to multiple projects across diverse disciplines. The UA Office of Sustainability administers the Green Fund program and provides the Green Fund Committee with advice and support.
Check out what UA students and employees have done together with Green Fund support to make the UA a more environmentally sustainable institution.

Having purged their ranks of liberals, moderates, and many ancient and honorable conservatives whose service antedated the Reagan era, Republicans have whittled themselves down to a reactionary party angry at the modern age, fearful of the future, and terrorized by the radical Tea Party. The Tea Party is not actually a party, of course, but a revolutionary movement of malcontents who seem to despise or fear the way the world is trending and to hold an older generation of Republicans responsible for it. Their response has been to eliminate Republicans whose conservatism they judge to be impure.
What they call conservatism seems a great deal like the sentimental longing for those mythic good old days with which depressed codgers belabor the young on long car trips. In Tea Party types it seems like nostalgia for a past when social security meant ending life in a poorhouse and health care meant knowing a doctor who made house calls. During the past five or six years old-line Republicans whose conservatism failed to meet the new purity standards have found themselves sandbagged in primary elections by cunning Tea Party minorities and replaced by Republicans of the new breed.
This development has been a mighty force in the restructuring of the Republican Party. Its influence is visible in this year's party platform with its surly attitude toward women's issues, its barely concealed hostility toward the burgeoning immigrant population, and its subliminal dream of repealing a hundred years of progressive government. The passion for turning back the calendar and revisiting the joys of keeping cool with Coolidge, if not the gloriously tax-free age of Mark Hanna and President McKinley, is not a passion, one suspects, that thrills Mitt Romney to his pragmatic Mormon roots. Indeed, the purified conservatism that now afflicts the Republican Party seems so alien to Romney's personality, character, and history that his candidacy seems bizarre.

Case Resolution
In July 2006 the then Home Secretary, John Reid MP announced that there were between 400,000 and 450,000 outstanding asylum applications with the Home Office. He committed to these being cleared by summer 2011. To carry out this work the Case Resolution Directorate (CRD) was established. Cases within the CRD had all been submitted before April 2007 and included:
- oustanding and undecided asylum applications, including those whose country of origin had since joined the EU, fresh asylum claims and those waiting for an appeal
- those who had been granted limited leave to remain and who had applied for an extenstion
- people who had been refused asylum and lost their appeals but still remained in the UK
- duplicate case files.
Case Resolution was not a general amnesty, although it has been widely reported in the press as such. UKBA was tasked with finding a rapid and permanent solution for those whose asylum applications had been open for a significant period. Rather than establishing a new form of status (which would strengthen the external view that case resolution was a form of amnesty) the Home Office granted status through existing and longstanding immigration rules, often referred to as Paragraph 395C.
The UKBA reported on progress with the exercise through updates to the Home Affairs Select Committee, transcripts for which are available on their website. Final figures relating to the exercise have not yet been published. However from previous updates, including the one to January 2011 we know that approximately 40% of the backlog cases resulted in a grant of status, the majority of these being Indefinite Leave to Remain.
Issues for those granted leave to remain
All of the people in the backlog had been waiting for a decision on their case for some time. For some, the delay was nearly 20 years long. Through research funded by the Rayne Foundation Employability Forum has been speaking to groups of case resolution clients in Scotland, Coventry, Leeds and London. On average people had been waiting for a final decision on their asylum application for 8 years. Key challenges to their integration are strongly related to the time spent waiting in limbo and include :
- destitution and homelessness
- lack of knowledge about rights and entitlements, or feeling that they belong as a settled member of the community
- accessing employment - with years where they of not being allowed to work, this group has had little work experience, large gaps in their CVs.
- lack of language skills - despite their length of time in the country many struggle with English
- difficulties in gaining documents to travel overseas to see their children and other family members
- exclusion from the refugee route to family reunion.
A report on our research into Case Resolution will be available in 2012. For more information please contact Beryl Randall.

John Boehner Wants Paul McCartney to Apologize for Cracking the 10 Millionth Bush Joke
One that wasn't even factually accurate!
While at the White House on Wednesday to perform and accept the Library of Congress's Gershwin Prize for Popular Song, Paul McCartney made a joke about George W. Bush's lack of intellectual curiosity.
"It's a fantastic honor (for) the Gershwin family to give me this incredible award and for me to be awarded it by the Library of Congress. And in fact, after the last eight years, it's great to have a president who knows what a library is."
Now John Boehner, the Republican leader in the House of Representatives, wants him to apologize. "I hope he'll apologize to the American people for his conduct, which demeaned him, the White House and President Obama," he said in a statement. Furthermore, Boehner's spokesman points out that Laura Bush was a librarian, so McCartney's joke wasn't even factually accurate like all other jokes. Now who hasn't been to a library, Paul?

Baltimore County News
Louis Diggs
Baltimore County Landmarks Preservation Commission
It pleases me greatly that African Americans from Baltimore County now have much of their history documented in book form, because for most of the 300+ years they have been residing here, there has been no previously documented history.
About twenty years ago, Baltimore County identified forty African American communities that have been in existence for many generations, thanks to the African American history compiled by my friend and mentor, Lenwood Johnson, a retired planner from Baltimore County government. He inspired me to take on the task of researching the history of African American communities and life in the County. I am not even a native of the County, as I was born and reared in Baltimore City; however, my ancestors came from slavery in the Boring area back in the 1700s.
When I returned home from the Korean War, I met a beautiful young lady named Shirley Washington from Catonsville and married her in 1954. We took up residence in the historic Winters Lane community. After retiring from the military and civil service, I taught a class at Catonsville High School on researching family and community history. During the class, I discovered that the Winters Lane area had no documented history. The Catonsville students urged me to find their history for them. This has resulted in the publication of eight books so far, documenting much of the history of the African American communities and life in Baltimore County.
Now our children can find much of their own community history in Baltimore County. Interesting facts abound, such as:
· Who was the first female Superintendent of Baltimore City Schools? Alice Penderhuges from Chattolanee in the Green Spring Valley
· Who was the first known elected politician from the County who was from a historic African-American community? Adrienne Jones from Cowdensville in Arbutus
· Who caused Thurgood Marshall to come to the County and possibly caused African American students to no longer have to go into Baltimore City for their high school education? Margaret Williams from Cowdensville, in the 1930s
· Who is widely considered the first African-American man of science? Benjamin Banneker whose life and works are celebrated at the Benjamin Banneker Historical Site and Museum in Oella.
· What were some of the contributions made by many African Americans, both free and enslaved, who fought for this Country during the Civil War? This is the subject of my 10th book, which I hope to complete by 2014.
· African American students like Phyllis Randall King (from the Winters Lane community in Catonsville) protested to open public swimming pools in the area.
My ninth book is on the all-African American military unit in Baltimore with whom I proudly went to war with in Korea in 1950. I encourage you to take a look at some of this fascinating history for yourself.

This question is distinct from other questions which ask how and when to begin Shabbat, etc. when there is no sunset. I am asking about places in which sunset occurs very late during certain times of the year. For example, in certain very northerly places, sunset occurs as late as almost 2 a.m. during certain periods. In this case, even Plag ha-Mincha is not until 11:30 p.m. Are there any dispensations for celebrating earlier in these times/places, or at least eating earlier? What about in families with young children?

Caitlin Does Extraordinarily Extraordinary and Ordinary Things
A Perhaps Somewhat Unexpected Collection of Paper Dolls
de Caitlin Field
For those of you who don't know Caitlin, I'll tell you this: sometimes, Caitlin does extraordinarily extraordinary things. Other times, she does extraordinarily ordinary things. And sometimes Caitlin imagines all sorts of other things that she could do or be. This book of paper dolls contains many of the things that Caitlin probably (and in most cases, hopefully) will never experience. Thanks to this book, for example, Caitlin now knows what it is like to be a member of an indigenous tribe of the amazon. Who'd 'a thunk?

The 3DS game library is expanding quite a bit in 2012. People in Japan and Europe will both be able to enjoy an entirely new, lengthy Fire Emblem, for example. Fire Emblem: Awakening was discussed at today's Nintendo Direct conference, with an April 19, 2012 launch confirmed for Japan and a general 2012 release window opened for Europe.
Exact details on the game and its story aren't readily available. We do know players will create a custom avatar and assist the Kingdom of Iris' prince as he takes part in a global conflict. Players will journey across the country to fight. Fire Emblem: Awakening will also introduce a new feature called Dual Battles to the series, where it seems characters can team up for an attack.
Fire Emblem: Awakening will be among the first 3DS games with paid DLC. (Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy is the first.) The first round of DLC for the game will be free until May 31, 2012 in Japan. After that people would have to pay for both the original DLC pack and future updates. The European DLC schedule has not been released yet, which is understandable as the game doesn't even have a solid European release date.
Fire Emblem: Awakening will also make permadeath optional. Permadeath is a hallmark of the Fire Emblem series. If someone falls in battle in almost every entry in the series, it means that character is dead and you can no longer use him or her again. The 3DS version will allow that feature to be turned on and off, to make it more accessible to newcomers.
No word from Nintendo of America yet, but I think we can safely treat this news as a worldwide announcement. Almost every recent Fire Emblem release has been localized, after all.

We've all heard of time-outs, reward systems, withholding privileges, spanking. But here's a discipline alternative you may not have considered: Licking. Yes, you read that right. Licking.
Actress Rosario Dawson says that her mom – who she describes as amazing but "radical" – used to lick her when she misbehaved.
"My mom licked me – that was her punishment. If I was a little uppity or if I didn't listen or if she wanted to get my attention, she'd lick the side of my face or under my armpit. My mom's a six-foot-tall amazon and she'd say, 'You came out of my vagina and I own every part of you,' and she'd lick me like I was her wee pup and she was a lioness. It was humiliating and really intense. Very primal. It's not spanking, but it definitely works.
From the sounds of it, Rosario had a very interesting childhood. She tells the New York Times that it's had a definite influence on the way she chooses to live her life today.
"My way of rebelling in life is to be conservative in my behavior because my mom is so radical. She'd go to P.T.A. meetings with a huge nose ring and I used to say, 'Can't you just wear the stud when you come up to school?'"
I'm usually open to new parenting tips and ideas, but licking? I think I may pass on that one.
Have you used any unusual discipline methods with your kids? Have they worked?

Five items, a sort of mini-MMQB, for a Championship Week Tuesday ... What's up, exactly, with Peyton Manning?Let's start with all the chatter about Peyton Manning, the conservative Denver playcalls, etc., coming out of the Broncos' 38-35 loss. Reader Jeff Keith of Charlotte asks: "You mentioned that Manning should have loosened up Baltimore's defense in the second half with some deep throws. I have watched Manning throughout the season, and I have little doubt that he cannot throw the deep ball anymore post injury. I wonder what the stats point to regarding the distance the ball covers in the air on Manning throws this year versus his career numbers?''According to ProFootballFocus.com, here are the percentages of Manning's throws 20 yards or farther past the line of scrimmage (attempts, not completions) since 2008:2012: 12.3 percent.2011: injured.2010: 13.5 percent.2009: 12.8 percent.2008: 13.2 percent.So, not that different. But with the CBS report Saturday -- which I didn't hear about until Monday -- about Manning having some trouble with numbness in his fingertips, the question makes sense. I had a minute alone with Manning postgame and would have asked him about it had I known. But it's something to keep in mind as Manning continues to recover from his four neck surgeries. You can see the number of throws downfield is down slightly -- very slightly -- so I don't believe it's a significant difference there.Bottom line: With 31 seconds left in the fourth quarter in a tied playoff game, one of the best quarterbacks in history had the ball with two timeouts, needing about 47 yards to be in field goal range. You've got, what? Five plays to make 47 yards to get in position for a field goal? I know the conditions were lousy: frigid day, a Ravens defense playing well, Manning having had a good but not great day to that point. If Manning went to John Fox and said, "I'm really struggling, so let's sit on it here,'' that's fine. If not, I don't understand the decision, and never will.*** On the CTE discovery in the brain of Junior Seau.With the ABC/ESPN report last week that Junior Seau's brain contained evidence of brain disease caused by multiple hits to the head, it is now imperative, obviously, that the league do as much as possible for the mental health of ex-players -- and that efforts continue to remove helmet-to-helmet hits from the game.I also think, other than chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), there are other causes to be considered -- namely, depression and post-career transition, both of which could have been major points of emphasis in the decline and death of Seau. This morning, I spoke with former Lions quarterback Eric Hipple, now an outreach specialist with the University of Michigan's Depression Center. He's a victim of depression himself, and his 15-year-old son killed himself in 2000 after suffering from depression. He was between sessions, he said, with a former NFL player who is depressed. That shouldn't be a surprise, he said, given the results of a NFL Players Association poll of former players, in which 15 percent of 1,600 players polled said they have felt moderately to severely depressed since the end of their careers; the national average for men is about nine to 12 percent."There is no doubt in my mind that CTE creates problems with some former players, and it's a contributor to depression for sure,'' said Hipple. "CTE certainly can exacerbate depression. But CTE has become a catch-bag for every problem now, and I don't think it should be. Jovan Belcher happens [the murder of his girlfriend, and Belcher's suicide], and everybody wonders if CTE did it. There is simply no data to confirm that CTE is the dominant reason for suicide.''Hipple believes the transition from a football life to a civilian one is the most difficult one to handle."When players leave football, I've found almost every one goes through a process of thinking, 'What do I do now? What's my identity now?' Their support system was taken away. All of a sudden, the support system, the friends, the money, the identity, is gone. If I want to see a doctor, I've got to make an appointment; I don't have a doctor available to me at all times. It's pretty devastating when you get cut. Or you get injured, and you're released. But nobody ever talks about it. It's a traumatic event. Look at research on ostracism. Psychologically, it's tough. That in itself can lead to depression."Then you get out in the world, and, let's say you've been in the NFL for eight years. You find yourself competing for a job against people who have been in the line of work for eight years. You've been working hard on football, and now you're way behind everyone when you go out in the field. Then you add the chronic pain, which some players have. And people saying to you, 'You played the greatest game in the world? I would have done anything to be able to do that. What can be wrong with you?' ''Hipple's advice to the NFL (and he has spoken to commissioner Roger Goodell about this): The day a player gets cut, debrief him -- tell him about the post-career resources available to him, and emphasize mental health care; connect him to a post-career support system."I'm as mentally healthy as I've ever been, and it's because of education,'' he said. He wishes he could have had a chance to speak with Seau before his suicide last May -- but he says he wishes he could talk to every former player to tell them there's hope, even if a player has a brain injury, to deal with the depression that might be plaguing them.CTE, Hipple believes, should be part of a mosaic of the post-career player issues. But it shouldn't be the only thing experts study when lives go so tragically wrong.*** Four questions with Andy Reid ... Not long before the end of the season, I wanted to ask Andy Reid whether he'd be interested in writing something around the time of the Super Bowl for Sports Illustrated. He said no -- even though in his youth he wanted to be a sportswriter. He thought he might be otherwise occupied. I'd felt he wouldn't take a year off from coaching up to that point, but then I knew if there was a job out there, he'd want it. Q: So, since you've been named the Chiefs' coach, many people wonder: 'With everything you've been through -- your son Garrett's death by overdose, the turbulent year on and off the field you just went through -- why not take a year off to recharge and get your life back in order?Reid: "Because I love what I do. Garrett loved what I did. It doesn't feel like work. I didn't want to sit home and not coach. What was I going to do? There was nothing I wanted to do as much as coach football. The thing with Garrett ... it was not very sudden; this was a long, long process. Unfortunately, [drug addiction] is so rampant in America, and people who have gone through it realize that you don't just -- as in my case -- lose a son; you lose a great friend. Now I'm able to bring my other son here. [Reid hired Britt Reid, who also had drug-addiction issues, to be a Chiefs quality-control coach.] Remember, he lost his best friend. But I am so proud of how far he's come. And it says something about him that the three coaches he worked for at Temple wanted him to come with them. The other side of this is working to move on like a man and handle what life throws at you. We're doing that.''Q: Why the Chiefs? Why not, say, Arizona, or the other places you were linked to?Reid: "The Hunt family is one of four or five bedrock families in the NFL that I always thought, 'If I'm ever released [by the Eagles], if one of those families calls, I'd listen.' The history here is so rich, the tradition is so rich, the fan base is so strong.''Q: What's the one overriding thing you take from Philadelphia into this job?Reid: "I learned to embrace a city in Philadelphia. They'll take you from boyhood to manhood, which they did with me, and that's okay. It's a results business. I got that. As far as the team goes, it's imperative that everybody's pulling in the same direction. That's the only way you can succeed."Q: What's your take on the talent you inherit?Reid: "Before I interviewed with the Chiefs, I looked at every snap from every [Kansas City] game this year. Special teams were average. The talent overall, it looked to me like they were transitioning from an older team to a younger one. And I thought, 'With a couple, three drafts, very good things can happen here."*** I don't know precisely what this means, but I like it.Rob Chudzinski, named Friday as the seventh head coach in 14 new Cleveland Browns years, was an offensive coordinator for four years in the NFL -- two with Cleveland (2007-'08), two with Carolina (2011-'12). And I would bet his greatest win as a coordinator came in October 2008, when the struggling Browns welcomed the unbeaten Giants to Cleveland Browns Stadium for a Monday night game -- and Chudzinski's offense piled up 454 yards and routed the Giants 35-14.I bring this up because I tried to reach Chudzinski after the game by phone to speak about it, failed, then went to bed around 1, figuring I'd catch him sometime during the week. Well, at 1:45 a.m., my cell phone rang. It was Chudzinski. He was in his office, at the Browns training facility in suburban Berea, starting to work on that week's foe, Washington, and we arranged to talk later in the week. I thought this said something either about Chudzinski the worker bee or coaches in general: The Browns have their biggest win in the Crennel Era, beating the unbeaten Super Bowl champs at home on a Monday night before a national audience, and the offensive coordinator's mode of celebration was to go watch tape of the next foe. When we spoke, he did say he watched three Washington defensive game tapes between about 12:15 and 4 that night before getting some sleep. Some coaches who have a Monday night game will spend a good part of Monday during the day getting a head video start on the next team, but Chudzinski won't do that because he feels it clouds his thinking if he looks ahead to the next foe before finishing with one opponent."It's just the job,'' he said then. "It's what the job is in the most competitive league in the world. I just like to watch two or three games and get a feel of the team we're going to play. See how we match up, see how they call the game. Just getting a feel for them. For me, I think, and I've always thought, this is just what I have to do. I just feel I need every waking hour to do this job right. You better not spend too much time licking your wounds or patting yourself on the back.''That's your new football coach, Cleveland.*** A Polian tree grows in the NFL.In the span of 25 hours last week, three teams hired new general managers: Jacksonville named David Caldwell late Tuesday afternoon, San Diego picked Tom Telesco at midday Wednesday, and Carolina announced David Gettleman. All got their start in the NFL when hired by Bill Polian -- Gettleman in Buffalo, and Caldwell and Telesco out of John Carroll University (along with son Chris Polian) with the Carolina Panthers. "Bill's the linchpin for me and Tom,'' Caldwell said. "I would venture to say no, I wouldn't be here right now if not for Bill."Said Polian: "All three are the epitome of football men. Football teams need to be led by football men who know how coaches think, how players think. You can't learn that in business school or law school.''So much for capologists rising to GM jobs ...Now for your email: I AM BLUSHING. "Thank you for the peek into the locker room meeting between Peyton Manning and Ray Lewis. This is why you are appreciated by fans of the game. These are the types of revealing moments that fans long to see, but unfortunately they always occur behind the scenes where we cannot share in them. Reading how Mr. Lewis called Mr. Manning a great warrior was touching and revealing of the respect they have for one another, and I think this should not be lost on the players of today's generation. Mr. Manning displayed a lot of class to seek out and congratulate the victorious Mr. Lewis.'' -- From Kenneth Garrett, Covington, Ky.I have covered the NFL for 29 seasons, and this is one of the coolest things I've seen in a post-game setting. These men will go down as two of the top -- whatever -- 20, 25, 30 players in history when they're finished, and the respect that they had for one another was a lesson for future generations of players. Thank you for writing. ON RAHIM MOORE. "While I think it is correct to criticize the Denver safety Rahim Moore for allowing the 70 yard TD pass at the end of the Broncos-Ravens game I think it is completely unfair and unprofessional to suggest it was "laziness" as a possible culprit. You don't think that kid is heart broken over what happened? He screwed up big time but don't pour salt in his wound by suggesting he was lazy.'' -- From Rudy Dyck, of Kingsville, Ontario.I said he was either lazy or had a lapse in concentration. It was one of the two, probably the latter. I understand your outrage, but how do you or I know which it was? OUTRAGE OVER PETE CARROLL. "How do you write an entire column about the four games last weekend and not mention Pete Carroll's inexcusable icing of the kicker? First, statistics show it doesn't work. Second, he looked to be asking who called the timeout when it is pretty clear on replay that he is the one who called the timeout. Do you have any insight on this issue that cost them the game.'' -- From Chris Reagan, of Middletown, N.J.No, I don't. I'm not a big icing fan. To me, as much damage can be done to a kicker by making him kick when he's a little bit rushed -- as Matt Bryant would have been before the timeout -- as by giving him 45 seconds to get his bearings and prepare. But I don't know who called it. If I were a coach, that would not be in my repertoire. PEYTON'S PLACE. "It's unfortunate that we live in an era where an all-time great quarterback like Manning is routinely criticized for not being able to win the 'big one.' Despite the fact that he has won a Super Bowl, he seems destined to be treated as Marino, to Brady's Montana (another unfair comparison). Marino never had a defense or a running game. Saturday, Manning brought his team within a minute of victory, only to have it taken away by a poor defense. Montana played on teams so great on both sides of the ball that the backup (albeit another Hall of Famer) was able to step in and win. Likewise, all of Brady's Super Bowl victories came when he played on a team with a great defense, something the Pats have not had in their recent Super Bowl failures.'' -- From Dan, of New York City.I'd agree, although Manning made a gigantic gaffe to help Denver lose this game. You can't overlook the terrible overtime interception. I blame Rahim Moore more than Manning, but the quarterback has to take his share of the blame when he throws an interception in overtime on a ball he knows he should never have thrown. PEYTON AND THE PLAYOFFS. "For Peyton Manning, what I think is the most glaring statistic isn't the total number of playoff loses, it's the number of one-and-done games, most of which are at home as a top three seed. He's been knocked out of the playoffs eight times in the first game. Compared to the likes of Elway, Favre, Brady, that number is incredible.'' -- From Sean McCarthy, Boston.Agreed. You can't hide that. Comments More NFL

Screening tests check for signs of cancer in people who don't have any symptoms. There is no standard screening test for the early detection of esophageal cancer that is recommended for the general population. If you have risk factors linked to esophageal cancer (such as Barrett's esophagus) you might want to talk with your doctor about screening. Or, he or she may raise the idea of screening with you.
Your doctor may request a test to view your esophagus. This test is called an esophageal (or upper) endoscopy. For this test, a doctor uses a thin, lighted tube called an endoscope to look inside your esophagus. It has a tiny camera on the end of it. This lets your doctor see pictures on a monitor. You will be told not to eat or drink anything for about 6 hours before the test. Before the test, you may be given local anesthetic to numb the area. You may also get a sedative to make you sleepy.
If the lining of your esophagus looks unusual, the doctor can take a small sample of tissue, called a biopsy, to test for cancer or other problems. Your doctor can also request other tests to see if you have esophageal cancer.

Fixing solar's intermittency: Do SolarReserve and PG&E have the answer?
By Tom Slater in Greanbeat, December 23 2009
Pacific Gas & Electric has signed a contract with SolarReserve to buy power from its 150-megawatt plant. Power purchase agreements like this are pretty commonplace at this point — so what makes this one special? SolarReserve claims its technology can supply solar-generated power even when the sun's not shining — revolutionizing the way we look at solar.
SolarReserve relies on solar thermal systems to make this possible. Using a field of reflective mirrors, it concentrates sunlight on a central receiving tower. The intense heat, topping 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit, is stored in molten salt in this tower. This salt solution is then funneled into a storage tank where it can sit there, glowing hot, for hours, before being used to generate steam to turn a turbine. The salt can retain useful amounts of energy for up to a week after it was last exposed to the sun — essentially taking care of solar's intermittency problem.

If snowy conditions back east has delayed your flight or you arrived at LAX too early or your flight's simply delayed and you're flying Virgin America or find yourself in Terminal 3, invest in a Loft pass, you won't regret it.
We got to LAX sooner than expected for a flight to Fort Lauderdale to catch a Princess Cruise and the plane was delayed, so we popped for a Loft pass and the time flew by, so to speak. With an open bar, great snacks, free WiFi and very comfy chairs, it proved $40 (each) well spent.
The spacious lounge is manned by a friendly staff and barkeep who pours good drinks and fine wines. There's lots of reading material, flat screen TVs, restrooms and wide windows for watching the planes take off and land.
Less than a year old, the oasis-like Loft, located on the upper level of Terminal 3, is very popular with frequent travelers especially lately with bad weather conditions plaguing most of the country but thankfully not Los Angeles. Lounge hours are 6 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. but are adjusted when necessary. Passes are $40 for general travelers, $25 for Elevate (Virgin's frequent flyer club) and $20 for Elevate Gold card holders.

How to use intersphinx to link to sphinx or python documentation
Christoph Neuroth <christoph.neuroth <at> googlemail.com>
Hi, I just started using sphinx 1.0 for our documentation and I'm having trouble using the intersphinx extension. I added python and sphinx itself in conf.py: intersphinx_mapping = { 'python': ('http://docs.python.org/', None), 'sphinx': ('http://sphinx.pocoo.org', None) } And now I try to link to these documentations. But even this example from the sphinx documentation does not work: :ref:`comparison manual <python:comparisons>` (It will just output "python:comparisons" in italics without a link). Also, I don't get how I would know about these labels anyway (for documentation I didn't write): When I have to look at the python or sphinx documentation source to find the labels first, it's way faster to just link the URL like `this <http://sphinx.pocoo.org/markup/ inline.html#ref-role>`_, isnt it?

The more I read the commentary and letters in the Sierra Star's opinion section I find myself reluctantly being a self-appointed, local, de-facto fact-checker and context contributor.
Recently, I debunked Albert L. Kiser's assertion - "...Stimulus of almost $1 trillion = zero jobs. Talk to an economist. It's a fact" - with Politifact's finding that this was the No. 1 lie of the top 10 lies in 2011.
Again we are faced with similar assertions in Bill Atwood's "A look at Obama." This is not a critique of Mr. Atwood, who I'm sure is an honorable man, but more a chastisement of those who originally proffer these misleading and, frankly, false ideas for others who trust them to make it mythical urban legends.
A popular belief Atwood echoed is that "...President Obama stated that once the stimulus package was enacted, the unemployment rate would drop below and stay below 8%." Here are excerpts from The Fact Checker column entitled "Mitt Romney's claim that Obama said stimulus would keep unemployment below 8% ."
"Far from being anything that Obama said, the Romney campaign acknowledges that this 8% figure comes from a staff-written projection issued Jan. 9, 2009 -- before Obama had taken the oath of office." In other words, Obama didn't state it nor promise it. "Thus, it was not an official government assessment or even an analysis of an actual plan that had passed Congress."
In the Pinocchio measure, this got three Pinocchios.
Will the GOP pundits and future opinion writers to this paper stop spinning this falsehood?
Probably not, but at least you now know better.
Bill correctly said Obama stated that Bush's massive run up of the debt was unpatriotic but says Obama is hypocritical because he presides over a $5 trillion debt increase. Here is the necessary context. Clinton left a $250 billion annual surplus to George W. Bush. If that continued, some economists predicted that the 2000 $5.5 trillion national debt would have been paid off in 2012.
Instead, Bush used the money for tax cuts in June 2001 giving the bulk of the cuts to the richest 1%. After 911, instead of rescinding the tax cuts to pay for the war, he borrowed the money. In May 2003 during a now full-blown war, he doubled down on a second massive tax cut for the rich. Meanwhile, soldiers couldn't up-armor their Humvees; parents had to send supplies to their children; future generations were laden with a $10.4 trillion debt, all for more tax cuts to the rich.
Is this unpatriotic? You decide.
In contrast, Bush left Obama with a $480 billion deficit - which did not include war costs. In fact, it is really an $830 billion deficit since it went from a $250 billion surplus to a $480 billion deficit; 7.2% unemployment heading to 13% according to Bloomberg; and a recession only rivaled by the Great Depression. In January 2009, before Obama took office, the CBO projected Bush's legacy deficit would reach $1.2 trillion for 2009. Given the worst recession since the Great Depression, the annual deficit from Bush's legacy would have ballooned beyond $1.2 trillion in each subsequent year.
Let's do some math. If Obama did nothing for three years, we would have accrued a minimum of $3.6 trillion ($1.2T x 3) in Bush's legacy debt. Since the debt increase from 2008 stands at $5 trillion, it means Obama's policies are responsible for $1.4 trillion ($5T - $3.6T) or $467 billion ($1.4T /three years) per year deficit. In other words, $3.6 trillion of that $5 trillion debt increase is attributed to George W. Bush. Where's Obama's hypocrisy?
In February 2009, we were losing almost 800,000 jobs per month. For the past 23 months we have had increases in private sector job growth averaging 200,000 jobs monthly for the recent 14 months. Unemployment peaked in Oct. 2009 at 10.2%. Today, it is at 8.3%. Republicans wanted GM to go bankrupt. Obama resurrected GM and Chrysler saving and creating tens of thousands of jobs. The CBO (Congressional Budget Office) says 3.3 million jobs were created by the stimulus.
Obama pushed unemployment extension and payroll tax cuts for those making under $106,000 savings millions from hunger, homelessness and slipping into poverty. For a full list of Obama's record, go to obamaachievements.org/list. Saying that Obama won't run on his record is actually what the GOP hopes for not what Obama will be doing.

The faster you are diagnosed with a heart condition, the greater your chances for recovery. That's why we work with the Surprise Fire Department to have emergency patients' heart rhythms and other key health information transmitted while patients are on the way to the hospital.
By the time you reach the Banner Del E. Webb Emergency department, our physicians and nurses can offer immediate care tailored specifically for you.
