If anywhere, it would be here in Ohio.
But, actually, I think the NY Times editorial went a little further than the actual issue. From what I understand (based on NPR and a quick Google News search of local sources) Blackwell is trying to challenge Strickland's right to VOTE, not his place on the ballot.
If this sentence is correct, then those are one and the same: "If Mr. Strickland was not a qualified voter, he would be prohibited from running for governor."
God damn, that Blackwell is a sleaze. He makes Katherine Harris look like a saint in comparison. When are the real Christians going to stand up against these freaks who are corrupting their faith?
Then there's his "I'm just sayin'" attempt, aided by the state GOP, to brand Strickland as "pro-pedophilia."
Um. Dan. This was an editorial in the NYT -- yesterday. Old news.
more scary than the "technicality" issue (as i recall, it's actually that strickland has TWO ohio addresses, which could get him purged as a voter, and thus ineligible to run with less than three weeks to the election)is this machiavellian maneuver:
blackwell is purging voter registrations like crazy by:
1] sending out deceptive "test" mailing to targeted voters (read: likely dems)with 'opt-in' style fine print stating that if the recipient does not respond to the mailing, they will be ineligible to vote. (by nature of being called a test, it does not need to go to all ohio voters)
2] the deadline for response falls after the primary--so these voters are eligible in the primary and think they're all set to vote in the general. surprise! we didn't get a response so you're out.
3] people smart enough to read the fine print are showing up to re-re-register and finding that minute details are getting them purged (this ID says "Jr", this one does not--you're out. College student switched dorms, you're out. Etc.)
4] Deibold machines. Nuff said.
and this is why rove and bush are 'optimistic' about november. it's happening in four battleground states.
do not concede!!
I live in Ohio and everybody I know fucking hates Ken Blackwell. I turned 18 last year and I'm very proud to have the chance to help throw him out of office.
I got the fuck out of Ohio, but I'm looking forward to this election so I can quit hearing about rigged voting machines. When Strickland wins in a landslide the people throwing out these conspiracy theorists will have to quietly remove themselves from the public eye.
Of course if Blackwell wins, it will be so obvious that the machines are rigged that I will retroactively pretend that I knew it all along.
Wow, rereading my comment it becomes obvious that I'm a product of Ohio public schools.
A high-school friend went to Oberlin, and the touch screen voting machines _his_ colleagues and pals* registered in Democratic counties did something quirky: after voting Kerry, progressive local candidate, progressive issue, etc. the "confirmation screen" showed they had voted... Nader. Yep. They went to the poll workers and it was duly noted.
*(a little shaky, yeah, but he's not known for his flights of fancy)
My partner had a similiar flaky machine thing happen when he voted in the primary last spring. The poll workers ended up retiring the machine. Coincidence?

Hey Deviants,
I have a problem with consistency. Some days my work looks awesome and a lot of days I think its poop. I just have a hard time staying consistent with the art I produce. One flip through my sketchbook pages will tell you that. I just get so frustated with myself. with either the lack of patience, creativity, or inspiration. All in all I just feel like something is missing in my work that prevents me from being consistent. I'm not sure what it is but I hop eI find out soon.
Thanks for your time,

Have you ever used the excuse you are too busy to exercise? During the winter holidays we often eat more and are stressed. Both of these can be helped with exercise. The New Year is the perfect time to get in the exercise habit, so you will see its benefits before Spring.
I, for one, will not mourn the passing of 2009. That's the thing about the New Year; we can always begin it hoping that it will be better than the last one.
I would submit 2009 as a poster child for that approach. Unfortunately, I can't think of more positive and memorable events than events and realities that are better off forgotten.

Ellender continues torrid pace
Published: Tuesday, October 9, 2007 at 1:51 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 9, 2007 at 2:04 p.m.
HOUMA For a school thats known for its basketball teams, Ellender Memorials volleyball team is certainly making a name for itself.
The Lady Patriots have started the season off red-hot. After a tournament at Lutcher, last weekend, the Lady Patriots boast an overall record of 23-2 and are 3-0 in district play.
Ive been here for 10 years, said first-year head coach Leah Gaudet. I know theyve never had a record of this magnitude.
Gaudet coached Ellenders freshman team for nine years before taking over the varsity job this season.
So far, Gaudets impact has been evident.
But the Lady Patriots success on the volleyball court began last season when they reached the state tournament at the Pontchartrain Center. In the quarterfinals, Ellender lost to eventual Class 5A state champion Mandeville.
The Lady Patriots moved down a class this season, but have continued their late-season surge from a year ago.
We started off a little shaky last year, said senior Asia Williams. Toward the end, we got a little better. We started working harder. So that, and our workouts over the summer are improving our record.
Sophomore setter Holly Portier agrees.
It feels really good, Portier said of the Lady Patriots start. Last year, we did a good job, but this year were doing better. Were off to a good start.
Gaudet said Williams and Portier have played key roles in the Lady Patriots success, calling Williams one of the best hitters around.
Shes our go-to-girl, Gaudet said. And then of course it would be Holly.
Gaudet says her teams strength is their athleticism, but their smarts shouldnt be overlooked.
Not only do they have a lot of athletic ability, she said, but they see the floor well. When you think theyre going up to spike it, thats when theyll dink it and get a kill that way.
Still, Gaudet said the Lady Patriots are learning to play a structured defense, after years of getting by on athleticism alone.
Our weakness, I would have to say, is our defense, she said. If you dont have a defense, youre not going to have a good offense.
Were working on it. Were getting better. Were getting more and more digs per game, and the players are improving.
One tactic that Gaudet used was to take her team to watch an LSU volleyball game against Mississippi State.
Gaudet said the Lady Tigers run a similar defense, and her players said seeing it in action helped.
It was a really cool experience, Portier said. We got to see other teams, like LSU and Mississippi State, do what were doing.
Gaudet feels the experience helped the team.
They actually get to see whats going on, she said. They realize that Im not teaching them just to teach them.
And with their early season success, the Lady Patriots are seeing that the teaching is affecting their play in a positive manner.
A lot of my kids have been talking, Gaudet said, saying theyre more of a team, this year. I stress not to point fingers. If theyre going to point fingers point it at me, or to themselves. Not to other players.
Portier echoed Gaudets sentiments.
Weve just got to work together, and keep doing what weve been doing, she said. Weve got to try to make it farther than last year.
Making it farther starts today, when the Lady Patriots face Vandebilt Catholic, a game the team is looking forward too.
I think the whole team is excited, Portier said.
Its a big game, Williams added.
And if the Lady Patriots win, its another step in the direction of the ultimate goal.
I just hope these kids have the confidence that I have in them, Gaudet said. I expect to at least make it to the semifinals, if not going on to win a state championship.
Winning a championship or at least getting close would go a long way towards helping the Lady Patriots volleyball program gain more respect in a parish that boasts traditional powers Terrebonne High and H.L. Bourgeois.
Hopefully we get back to the playoffs and we get more respect, at least around school, Williams said. And around the parish. Hopefully we get the respect that well earn.

A very important issue in constructing global electronic markets is to enable semantic interoperation between fragmented electronic markets by constructing an interoperable electronic product catalogue (EPC) for product data exchange. Nevertheless, the heterogeneous EPCs are highly complex, which, causes the severe semantic inconsistency that prevents from semantic interoperation between them. To reduce complexity and to provide a solution to semantic consistency maintenance, this paper has developed a theory of deconstruction and reconstruction. The theory deconstructs heterogeneous EPCs into ordered concepts, structures and semantic relations by a proposed articulation approach. It reconstructs the deconstructed units into a novel CONEX framework for component EPC integration. The CONEX maintains semantic consistency amongst heterogeneous component EPCs in structure, concept and context.

Hey there,
If you use the Inspect Element tool in either Firefox or Chrome you can see that the DIVs with classes widget-container and widget-inner have widths set on them. By adding the following to the end of your theme's style.css should do what you want;
.widgets_on_pages .widget-container, .widgets_on_pages .widget-inner {
width: 100%;
Let me know how get on.
Sadly didn't work.
Aha... typo in my post.
.widgets_on_page .widget-container, .widgets_on_page .widget-inner {
width: 100%;
Again, this was spotted by using the Inspect Element feature... it's very useful and I suggest you have a play with it.
alas, that didn't work either my friend.
OK, not sure what you're after... do you want the "sports cast" block to be full width and the "facebook" block to follow underneath?

I am delighted to lead the Urban Male Leadership Program at Lehman College in strategic efforts to increase the number of Black and Latino males in higher education. And while I have seen progress, I am fully aware that it has not been enough. Barriers continue to rise making further progress for Black and Latino males even more difficult to attain.

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Yeah thanks for great article and info about this i am also hunter and i got one from http://pickbestbinoculars.com/ now try you content now :)
my company was needing a form last year and was made aware of a business with lots of fillable forms . If you need it too , here's a https://goo.gl/sekBoF.
Today a customer called to state she'd left a review on Yelp for us
July 19, 2016
Ugggnnn!!!! No more bing/yelp for me.
When I search for the problem with their apparent suppression of reviews, I see they recently were drawn into court and have complaints by the thousands in a class action lawsuit
I googled to find out what to do about it and see what others are encountering (since there's no way to contact the bing/yelp monopoly...I did however leave this message on a few OTHER websites where people are all up in arms about the manipulation (apparently they are all saying the same thing....if you advertise with yelp/bing your reviews MIGHT be able to be seen (!!!)
This was the note I wanted to send to Yelp....but they don't have a means of contacting them....what a joke, anonymous terrorists.
"I was called earlier by a woman customer that stated she left us a review on Bing. When searching my company name with the terms " Troy Road Computers Springfield Ohio " I see the company page come up and it states only 1 review, after clicking to see the 1 review I see it states we have 3 reviews, when I click to see what was said, the yelp page states that 'these reviews are not recommended " (!?!) Are you kidding me? I am not one to be extorted or manipulated but AM the type to inform each and every one of our customers that if they are finding that we serviced them appropriately to please use google to do so (to avoid loss). We have our own server and will be updating our notices page to reflect this recent finding with the bing/yelp monopoly asap. http://www.yelp.com/biz/springfield-computers-springfield?utm_campaign=yelp_feed&utm_medium=feed_v2&utm_source=bing
Searching a bit deeper I see there's been others with the same problem with the yelp manipulation."
And to think that I've gone through the extra work of putting bing as one of the links available to a great deal of my customers favorites bar....phhhhttt......just goes to show you, our nation is overrun by capitalizing and it's at all levels.
Capitalists don't appear to be doing such a good job of managing our nation as evidenced by our very real debt/looting (pick your word): http://usdebtclock.org
After reading the article Betrayal of Trust I was left wondering who I should feel sorry for. Is it Ms. Pendergrass who was taken advantage of? She blames Mr. Mims the ex-con turned public servant. Certainly the young lady who was forced into prostitution is a victim…of poor parenting. Now that she's pregnant it leaves me to wonder what sort of parenting skills she learned from her mother and what will she be able to pass along to her child. Mom's a victim. She's a victim. Clearly this new baby will be the next victim. Who is to blame for this lack of personal responsibility? The timing of this story is unfortunate and I am afraid it only serves to reinforce the racial divide by perpetuating the stereotype of black people as helpless victims who have children out of wedlock and then wind up on welfare. The fact that this whole thing began at a public agency doesn't bode well for social programs either. Will more social programs alleviate problems like this? Is this story some sort of right wing propaganda? It sure fits the conservative agenda.
We can't hide from the headlines anymore and people from all over the world are now waking up. The European power structure with their religious jargon is now falling on deaf ears. Minorities all over the world are now being awakened.
From my first visits to Cuba, Central America, and Africa, you could feel the change and global revolution among the people worldwide within the air. That's why it's so imperative for people of color to learn their history and to be properly educated on who they are and their history of greatness.
And now I can compare the Black lives matter movement to the civil rights movement of the late 50s and early 60s. Both movements are equally powerful. Whenever I would compare their struggles, I've always thought the civil rights movement was more dangerous because of the lynching.
But now I can sadly say we are still witnessing lynching in 2016 by the same crooked cops, which has sparked the Black lives matter movement all over the world and equally placing both organization's struggles on the same page.
Pretty much we've been treading in shallow waters and nothing has changed. But it's just something special about this generation. I remain hopeful and optimistic that this generation will be victorious in our struggles.

While I am honored to have had my piece selected, I'm quite disturbed that it was edited down. The call out was for up to 500 word essays and what I submitted was under that amount...yet the following was edited out. WHY? You asked for perspective, why would you limit mine when the lives of our brothers and sisters of color are on the line? Engage, especially if it makes us uncomfortable. PARTICULARLY if it makes us uncomfortable.
"I say that this impacts OUR community because these are our brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews who are dying, being locked up, and terrorized by people unwilling to interrupt and examine our personal bias as well as laws and policies that disproportionately harm our family of color.
When my black sister is curled up in a ball for days on end after seeing another video of an unarmed black man murdered by police.
When my black brother is numb and hides out in his house to avoid having to talk to anyone after another white man walks free after murdering a black person.
When my black niece makes videos about the pain of black girls not fitting in and it resonates with millions of cis and trans black women.
When my black nephew rehearses with his parents EVERY DAY before he leaves the house what to do if he encounters a police officer knowing that it may very well be an exercise in futility…#PhilandoCastille.
When any of my black family and friends have to weather a breaking point again and again and again….and then be expected to show up in service of curious white people (their boss, the person buying coffee in front of them, their landlord) who want to talk about these horrific events from a voyeuristic curiosity and be re-traumatized again and again and again.
I will NOT be silent while this country does this to my family. YOUR life matters, black family.
White family, if you see, you are EXPECTED to raise your voice and be in action with us. If you don't see, you are EXPECTED to open your eyes. The atrocities we see (when we choose to look) on our own soil by far outweigh the smoke and mirrors our government and media will have you believe about "outside terrorism" coming in. Scared of ISIS? Try being black in any city in America. ISIS is not the priority. The liberation of our family being terrorized right in front of our closed eyes is the priority. Look, listen, learn, engage, stand up…..you know full well you'd burn the courthouse down if this was your brother or sister. Well, it is. Light the match, family.

Poignant, but, no, emphatically no, it is NOT always the same race. Use some facts once in a while too. (directed at Cuffs and Coffins above) That any killing of any person anywhere is a tragedy is a given. People of all races are treated in all kinds of horrific ways. Do not hallucinate within your racial being. WE all can do this: Chinese, Irishmen, Sudanese and American blacks. Try using some facts too. Finally, leadership from the top has been horrid in the USA. A total bust. Can these things above be said and still feel empathy. Of course. It is for each individual to explain how he feels. I can't speak for you and you can't speak for me.
This is very terrible. I have had to take anti-sexual harassment training every other year at my job for about a decade now, so am familiar with the legal issues. This sounds like something that could result in a civil suit against BAWAR for the very issue of exploitation of clients by counselors identified in the article. They are liable for that and the resulting psychlogocal/emotional trauma it caused this woman, who should have been safe and protected.
BAWAR needs to open up publicly about this terrible breach of ethics. Otherwise, how will anyone trust them after this?
I'm being subjected to near fatal whistleblower retaliation in Oakland, and anywhere I go. [Lawyer desperately needed to save lives]
In 2014 Swords-to-Plowshares.org raped me in a manner described by hate crime & acknowledged doing so to many others (shown 'souvenirs' and told they're entrapping, raping, & killing Veterans with hate crimes) when attempting to obtain permanent housing/employment through their agency. Justice remains obstructed, with near fatal harassment daily ever since per StP's threats.
Their criminal acts destroyed my housing & careers (leaving me homeless as acknowledged by VA therapist despite the VA being acknowledged by my attacker as their friends) then threatened me into silence with their gang & have nearly killed me several times & harass me daily while agents attempt to solicit me for prostitution after displaying the same threatening gesture as the StP agent who apologized for their crimes, bought me coffee & informally paid me a few gift cards for food before having me tortured per the United Nations definition. (Which is ongoing to the point of my praying to God that i do not wake up the next day, every day.) This past week strangers have begun slipping me unknown poisons/drugs again causing more damages. Their crimes have destroyed my entire life (finances, relationships, careers, etc.) Email is best for now, but i am desperate for help & have DVDs/footage of the constant harassment. Police report (see below RD#16-010658) has been filed but I need a lawyer.
Thank you,
Mike VanValkenburg
Further to Eric's excellent reply to "geykerry"'s attempt to minimize the issues here, it should be noted that in the model for decriminalization of prostitution , New Zealand (the place of my birth) the actions of the law enforcement outline in the story are all illegal. In fact about a decade ago there was a similar case of a culture of one North Island city's police force having sex with young women who were exploited.
Several officers and ex-officers faced long trials on rape charges and though they were unsuccessful (due to the jury finding the actions consensual) in conviction, all the officers who where still in the force were dismissed, losing their police pensions, including a senior officer who was at that stage 3rd in line to being NZ's Police Commissioner, the highest post a Police officer can hold.
Even in a decriminalized system the Police's actions outlined in the story are completely unacceptable and corrupt.
Cap and trade means that folks who live near forests in Maine breathe clean air so Richmond refineries can use those cap and trade credits to continue to force Richmond inhabitants to breathe refinery toxics. And the rest of the Bay Area is subjected to the TONS of toxic emissions from the refineries.
The Bay Area Air Quality Management District is responsible for air quality here--cap and trade is irrelevant to Air District mission. Let Chevron get credits for reducing greenhouse gases HERE--and then their neighbors can avoid breathing all the other toxins. The Air District Board is made up of elected officials--let them know we want the Board to direct Air District staff that it is past time to put an enforceable limit on refinery emissions in the Bay Area.
Great reporting. Just horrifying situation.
Ohmygaud, have i got more info for you on mims. This is no surprise to hear this story and im truly saddened. Have you ever read the yep on Baywar? The criminalization of prostitution is at the heart of institutionalized rape.
Thank you for writing about the attempt to limit carbon and other emissions by refineries. Author and climate activist, Bill McKibben, has said that negotiating with basic physics is a losing proposition. He means that no matter what we do, adding more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere will make things worse. Worse means more droughts, floods, fires, rising sea level that could put large parts of the Bay Area (and all coastal zones) underwater and the possibility of huge famines due to water shortages and changing weather patterns.
Given how bad things already are and certain to become worse, anything that reduces carbon emissions more quickly is the right thing to do. The "logical and reasonable" arguments of government bureaucrats and fossil fuel company representatives should be ignored as the baloney it is. I urge everybody reading this story to contact the Bay Area Air Quality Management District Board of Directors and urge them to make sure that the caps on refinery emissions are enforced. If one of the directors is your county or city representative, contact them. If not, choose one or more and contact them anyway. Link to Board Members and contact information: http://www.baaqmd.gov/about-the-air-distri…
They put OPD Capt. John Lois in charge of the investigation .. What a joke !! I was an Oakland Cop for more than 15 yrs and knew John very well. He had a reputation of stopping all the prostitutes on his beat and getting very "handsy" during his "pat down" searches. How fitting that they chose him
Yelp has tried the same strong arm tactics on my wife and my small tanning salon, we don't have enough money for a pay off to YELP!
Other than "What we do in the shadows" was a horrible film about self absorbed... Oh wait, it's a metaphor about millennials. Of course our writes found it exciting. Bleh!
Investigating leaks? Wait! When did reporting a crime become a crime?
EB EXPRESS' sustained interest in the Coast to Coast Crisis of Confidence in U.S. Law Enforcement is very much appreciated. The situation with 3 Police chiefs being fired in 9 days in Oakland and the remarks of Mayor Libby Schaaf as illustrated in your independent reporting cited in Philip Lewis's MIC article carried by Yahoo News would be stronger with some broader context on the Musical Chairs being played with PD's from True Blue sea to shining sea. Also, across the bay as reported in May 2016 when SF Police Chief Suhr was asked to step down.
Don't stop at the Oakland jurisdictional line with your multi-faceted coverage of the shuffling of deck chairs on Chiraq as EB EXPRESS's one-time sister alternative news weekly the CHICAGO READER uncovered and dug deeper than the corporate-captured national broadcast news media into the 25 year CHICAGO POLICE TORTURE CASE and RECENT SETTLEMENT OF CIVIL SUIT that excluded so many victims during the years of cover-up, WHITE-OUT and silence. The Abu Ghraib and Gitmo years in Mid-western U.S. Law Enforcement formed a continuum with Richmond, Indiana Police Chief Daniel Mitrione whose role as a U.S. POLICE EMISSARY (read: torture consultant) and support operator in OPERATION CONDOR's circa 1970's Uruguayan theater of State Terror was well-documented by former NY TIMES war reporter A.J. Langguth in his book HIDDEN TERRORS that was rarely cited when Spokane Torture Consultants to the CIA Mitchell Jessen & Associates were exposed in THE SPOKESMAN and from there to a NY TIMES cover story post 9-11-01.
See Portland, Oregon's own alternative press weeklies the WILLAMETTE WEEK and PORTLAND MERCURY's coverage of the serial removals of rock n' roll band-member Mike Reese's resignation as Police Chief followed by his rapid revolving door into the role of high-paid lobbyist for the PORTLAND BUSINESS ALLIANCE selling the militarization of police equipment and procedures, followed in April 2016 by the month-long suppression by Mayor Charlie Hales' of replacement Portland Police Chief Lawrence O'Dea's DUI off-duty shooting of a fellow police official while sage squirrel hunting in Harney County.
As in Watergate the Cover-Up is the real story eclipsing the Dick Cheney Deja Vu (except the New Portland Police Chief shot his hunting buddy in the back not in the face like Chicken-Hawk VP Cheney).
For my time-line, arbitrary though it may be, the awareness of a CRISIS IN CONFIDENCE in U.S. LAW ENFORCEMENT dates back to THIS AMERICAN LIFE's (Public Radio X-change dba PRX) September 2010 re-cap of the NYPD OFFICER ADRIAN SCHOOLCRAFT imprisonment in a mental institution of a conscientious whistle-blowing beat patrol officer who had the temerity to call attention to the HORRIFIC OUTCOMES OF MAYOR BLOOMBERG's STOP & FRISK policies and the NYPD's various Police Chiefs' cooking of crime reduction numbers after instituting counter-productive patrol officer quotas for race-based STOP(S) & FRISKs.
We cannot cut and paste online links to other news reporting but do search for THIS AMERICAN LIFE's audio archive of its SEPTEMBER 2010 broadcast titled: "RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT" and the VILLAGE VOICE expose on the PATROL-MAN ADRIAN SCHOOLCRAFT case where a police officer whistle-blower was committed to a state psychiatric facility just like in the COLD WAR industry's exposes of LAW ENFORCEMENT AS USUAL BEHIND THE SOVIET, CHINESE and CUBAN COMMIE CURTAINs.
So many more recent incidences and so little space and time to shape them into a long-form piece of journalism that is used as a Fourth Estate Check and Balance rather than to sell the latest in tax-avoidance schemes or off-shore investment opportunities. Get curious and look for yourselves. Start with what's left of the alternative press. Not perfect, but way more fruitful than the corporate-captured mass media indoctrination via its relentless WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRACTION...
Beware the Neo-Liberal political solutions that amount in Billionaire Oligarch Mayor Bloomberg-stye or Boss Trump-style or Goldman Sachs Private CONsultant turned Presidential Candidate Madame Hillary Clinton-style to MARKET-BASED SOLUTIONS FOR MARKET-CREATED PROBLEMS....
Keep on doing EB EXPRESS!

Union Elementary School principal won't be back
MONTPELIER — Union Elementary School Principal Owen Bradley will resign at the end of this school year.
School board Chairwoman Sue Aldrich said Bradley has worked with the district since 2010 and has had his contract renewed in the past.
Administrator contracts in the district last for one year at a time.
School board member Lowell VanDerlip said the board held two executive sessions this year in which it discussed the issue. He said the board used a "personnel" exemption in the state open meetings law to keep the discussions private. Boards can talk privately about certain aspects of employees, such as their contracts, evaluations and disciplinary or dismissal actions.
School board members declined to elaborate on details of the case.
The resignation comes before Superintendent Brian Ricca was able to issue a recommendation on whether to renew Bradley's contract, VanDerlip said.

BARCELONA, Spain (AP) -- Barcelona clinched its third straight Spanish league title and the 21st in its 111-year history with a 1-1 draw at Levante on Wednesday night.
Seydou Keita headed in Xavi Hernandez's pass to put Barcelona ahead in the 28th minute, but Felipe Caicedo tied the score in the
40th after Gerard Pique flubbed an attempted clearance.
Barcelona (29-2-5), which has two games left, won the league for the fifth time in seven seasons, while Real Madrid (27-4-5) is assured of its third straight second-place finish. Because of the tie, Barcelona no longer can become the first team in Spain to reach 100 points.
The Blaugrana now turns their attention to the Champions League
final against Manchester United on May 28 at London's Wembley

I've been playing Dungeons and Dragons (v 3.5) on and off now for about 10 years. Although I consider myself a novice DM and prefer playing to refereeing, DMing is most of what I do these days. I've slowly been building up reputation here by almost exclusively asking the somewhat obvious questions easily cleared up by the sites more experienced players, and hope to someday be knowledgeable enough to start answering some. That will likely involve branching out into some new RPGs, be it Pathfinder, or one of the FATE systems. If you have a system you'd like to trumpet the merits of, feel free to convince me the next time we bump into each other in chat.

South Africa call for Kapp
Mariazanna Kapp has replaced the injured Kirsty Thompson in the South Africa squad for the women's World Cup next month.
Fast bowler Thompson, 20, was forced to withdraw from the squad after she suffered a stress fracture of the back in a provisional match.
The tournament's technical committee cleared South Africa to name a replacement for Thompson, paving the way for 19-year-old Kapp's inclusion in the Proteas' 15-strong party.
South Africa open their World Cup campaign against West Indies on March 8.

Famed for his hazard-striped columns of the Haçienda, Dry Bar and Fac251, designer Ben Kelly returned to Manchester to undertake the re-design of South. With a brief to modernise the space whilst retaining the underground dive-bar feel, new additions include a bespoke Funktion One sound system featuring a "body sonic infrabass" dancefloor system.
Within the centre of the Victorian building, a new secret courtyard has been transformed into a Lower Manhattan outdoor cinema space, complete with its own bar screening cult artists such as Velvet Underground, Nico & the Stones, taking inspiration from Factory, but this time Andy Warhol's Factory, not Tony Wilson's.

Bootyfull View 2 starts off promising with a sexy opener between Olivia Winters and Tyler Knight in the foyer of an expensive-looking home. But after the blowjob, the duo moves upstairs to smaller quarters. Much of the rest of the disc has a similarly cramped, one-angle feel.

Kudos to Al Gore and the Oscars
Climate change broke onto the big screen – and then made the summer concert line-up – but it may have brought political action to a new level at the Academy Awards, where Al Gore and Leonardo DiCaprio announced the event's having gone green.
Political issues have traveled the Oscar road before, but this year the event's production went out of its way to act in tune with the message, even passing out carbon offsets in lieu of gift bags!
Years ago the phrase 'global warming' began to scare people, and so 'climate change' became more common. While making the announcement to go green and then accepting the Oscar for best documentary, Gore referred to our climate crisis.
What our planet and our way of life face is a crisis, and it really shouldn't be a political issue except that the political arena seems to be the only one not moving forward fast enough on the issue.
2 Responses to Kudos to Al Gore and the Oscars
Hey, I saw that you had mentioned offsets and I wanted to let you know that there is a new report published this last week on the offsets industry, The Carbon Neutral Myth – Offset Indulgences for your Climate Sins. Free download from http://www.tni.org
Carbon offsets are the modern day indulgences, sold to an increasingly carbon conscious public to absolve their climate sins. Scratch the surface, however, and a disturbing picture emerges, where creative accountancy and elaborate shell games cover up the impossibility of verifying genuine climate change benefits, and where communities in the South often have little choice as offset projects are inflicted on them.
This report argues that offsets place disproportionate emphasis on individual lifestyles and carbon footprints, distracting attention from the wider, systemic changes and collective political action that needs to be taken to tackle climate change. Promoting more effective and empowering approaches involves moving away from the marketing gimmicks, celebrity endorsements, technological quick fixes, and the North/South exploitation that the carbon offsets industry embodies.
[…] companies that sell offsets to greenhouse gas emissions. You may recognize the phrase from the Oscars or even Fox News on […]


text: Posted January 8, 2013 Chud tried to stay ahead of defenses and in doing so got too cute. I really think he over thought a lot of thinks and tried to fix something that wasn't broken. Last year the read option caught guys off guard, so he implemented more of it. The problem with that is that not only did you give defenses and entire offseason to prepare, but it puts a ton of additional strain on the OL by making them hold blocks longer so Cam can make the decision about what to do with the ball. I assume he thought, initially, that more reps would iron out the problems but with a rookie LG, IR'ed C and back up RG's it only exacerbated the problems. Cam was taking a lot of hits and was essentially the entire offense. As the season went on he FINALLY saw that it wasn't working and went back to a more traditional, pro style offense with the read option sprinkled in and the results were a lot like what we saw last season. I don't have a problem with the read option used now and then to keep defenses guessing and such, but it shouldn't be the basis of your whole offensive game plan. I blame almost all our offensive problems on Chud. So then read option is simply asking the QB to do more, make the call whereas a standard 'pro style' offense involves the OC calling the play and the QB sticking by that? That's how I understood it - but does read option also involve the QB rushing more often? Presumably if they're unable to pick the play they're left with little option but to rush or be sacked or throw a silly int? I can't recall the game but I recall Cam throwing a rushed pass earlier in teh season that was easily picked and returned for a TD - a sign of poor utilisation of Read Option? Was the Broncos fixture one of the games where we adopted the heavily read option style? I'm sure it was around week 9/10 and Cam got nailed by the Broncos pass rushers - that wasn't nice to watch!

High school sports: What it really costs to play high school football
"The whole idea of sports and what makes it great is that it doesn't matter where you come from," said a second Canyons District mother, who just moved to Utah from a state that relies on booster clubs, not parents, to cover the costs of athletics. "If you have talent, you can succeed and you can make it. Now they're taking that away with the pay to play. You never even get a chance to show your athletic ability."
Coaches have mixed feelings about the optional fees. In many ways, coaches have no choice but to offer many of the programs that drive those optional costs. It is simply the reality of modern high school sports.
But some do ask where does it end?
"The fees have gotten enormous with no criteria," said Logan coach Mike Favero, whose only additional cost is a $75 summer camp. "What's the right number and what's fair?"
Granite District and its school board made massive rule changes aimed at controlling the costs of athletics and activities. Still, Fraser looks at what his schools are offering and asking, and acknowledges there is still room for improvement.
"The only hope that we have of getting this changed is to expose it," he said. "I know it can be done."
Alder said the state includes information about this rule in its financial training. While she believes most coaches and principals want to abide by the rules, there are some exceptions. She hopes school districts will ask more questions and keep better tabs on costs.
One coach, who asked for anonymity because he feared retaliation, said there is a serious lack of administrative leadership. Principals should be aware of the laws and rules, and they should be training their coaches. Alder said parents can report unfair or unlawful fees to the district or state. Parents said they're reluctant to do that because their children just want to participate.
"I just don't think that's right," said the second Canyons District mom. "The tradition of sports should be that everybody is able to play. It's based on your talent. To me, this just seems like it's based on your money."

text: Perhaps no theatrical production staged during this year's Black History Month sounds as offbeat as ANGELA'S MIXTAPE, a joint world premiere continuing Sat., FEB. 16, between Atlanta's Synchronicity Performance Group and New York City's New Georges. Playwright Eisa Davis, niece of Black Panther and activist Angela Davis, offers a musical memoir that finds radical 1970s politics at odds with 1980s materialism. The play, a Pulitzer Prize finalist directed by Liesl Tommy, sounds like a one-of-a-kind mashup of autobiography and hip-hop. Through March 16. $14.46-$17.10. Thurs.-Sat., 8 p.m.; Sun., 7 p.m. 7 Stages, 1105 Euclid Ave. 404-484-8636. www.synchrotheatre.com.

News This Year on Drugs
posted by December 30 at 14:10 PMon
Despite drugs' appeal and merry-making capabilities, most news about drugs is an unmitigated downer. Poor saps get screwed while rich sports pros walk free; the DEA jerks off about the number of crack-heads they bust while the White House whips parents into rabid hysteria over the next pandemic. Jeezus criminy. We all know our drug policy and propaganda are failing. But will things ever get better?
Looking back on the year, several stories and developments stand out as faint lights at the end of a tunnel, giving hope that the Drug War's lock-`em-up prescript will crumble under its onerous weight, and that the movement for reform will deliver policies rooted in science, compassion, and frugality. Other stories simply stand out like gruesome traffic accidents you can't help but check out one more time in your rear view mirror.
Here are some of the inspiring highlights - and the horrifying lowlights of 2006:
White Out: Meth was declared a national epidemic, and gabby news anchors couldn't stop flashing pictures of toothless vagabond tweakers and the remnants of apartment laboratories that allegedly exploded without warning. Parents now must recite the alphabet backwards in Gaelic to buy Sudafed and hunters are warned to avoid shooting near unfamiliar trailers lest Hoquiam is inadvertently detonated like Hiroshima.
Alaska Rules: Alaska's Supreme Court smacked down their penalty-pushing Governor and upheld a privacy clause in the state's constitution, thereby allowing adults to keep an ounce of pot in their home. This suggests we could see similar rulings in states with comparable privacy laws next year.
Good Man: Kirkland's Roger Goodman, former chair of the Washington State Sentencing Guidelines Commission and director of the Drug Policy Project at the King County Bar Association, was elected to represent the 45th District in the state legislature. In what turned out to be a costly mistake, an opposition campaign sent swing-district voters several beautiful, glossy mailings labeling him an aggressive advocate of reforming drug policy, helping to earn the Democratic Goodman more than 54% of the vote.
Time Will Tell: Five locales, including San Francisco and Missoula County, hatched laws to de-prioritize marijuana enforcement. These local laws are like policy incubators (cloned from Seattle's Initiative 75) that could fledge into statewide decriminalization.
Time Out: The City of Seattle funded Clean Dreams, a vanguard program to get shady folks out of arrest's way by helping them get on their feet and out of financial desperation. If the proliferations of laws like I-75 are an indication, pre-arrest-diversion programs like Clean Dreams may start popping up around the country.
License to Ill: Medical marijuana dispensaries were raided left and right in California, sparking a legal brouhaha. Among other litigation, county governments are challenging the constitutionality of the California ID cards that grant pot patients immunity from prosecution. If the counties win, the legal precedent could invalidate all state medical marijuana laws - forcing chemo patients to choose between tossing their cookies or getting tossed in the slammer.
Cutting Class: Prompted by an impending class-action lawsuit, Congress scaled back the Drug Provision of the Higher Education Act. As a result, thousands of students who would otherwise have been denied college funding for hitting the bong can start hitting the books.
Smoke on the Water: The Seattle Hempfest tackled the City and the Art Museum with a lawsuit after officials dilly-dallied over the permit application for the event's annual waterfront venue. Once securing the permit out of court, Hempfest sprinted to make a touchdown with its largest event ever (and the most populous pot rally in world history) while dropkicking David Schmader into Electric Lady Land.
Pipe Dreams: Two state initiatives that would have basically legalized marijuana, one in Colorado and one in Nevada, went up in proverbial smoke earning a depressing 41% and 44% of the vote respectively. This means people should make sure they can win before filing dreamy initiatives and getting our hopes up.
God as Their Witness: The US Supreme Court ruled that members of the Union of the Vegetable (a trippy church) could use ayahuasca (a trippy vegetable) for spiritual purposes, building the stairway to a religious drug use defense.

Sometimes I have to use a recipe as a starting point for what I prepare. I did this recipe, substituting darker miso for light, and chopped red onions for scallions. I also had only a few drops of mirin, so I added a splash of white wine. That's what you have to do when you like the ingredients in a recipe, but do not have all of them on hand.
I always skin the salmon, making it 1000% easier to serve and reducing the cooking time a bit. Finally, I use a pyrex baking dish with a very light coating of olive oil, rather than lining a baking dish with aluminum foil. No wasted aluminum foil and just as easy cleanup.
Now I want to go out and get the missing ingredients and prepare the recipe more or less as given. Betcha it will be excellent!

BEST BETS: "Jessica Jones," "Big Trouble/Escape from New York" & More October 2016 Highlights
Comic Books
Attack on Titan, Death Note and Black Butler are on a list of 38 manga and anime the Chinese Ministry of Culture has designated as "severely improper content" and banned from print or digital distribution within the country.
The ministry announced Monday it has shut down eight websites and sanctioned 29 more for carrying comics and anime that either were unlicensed or featured violent content, and it's threatening to issue warnings and fines to websites that don't remove the blacklisted titles.
Welcome to Food or Comics?, where every week we talk about what comics we'd buy at our local comic shop based on certain spending limits — $15 and $30 — as well as what we'd get if we had extra money or a gift card to spend on a splurge item.
Check out Diamond's release list or ComicList, and tell us what you're getting in our comments field.
Chris Mautner
If I had $15, the third issue of Batman Inc. would be a must for me this week [after Chris turned in his picks, DC announced that the issue will be delayed until next month], especially since it features the return of Matches Malone, a character I wasn't even aware I missed until now. I might also spring for the first issue of Axe Cop: President of the World, a new limited series featuring the hatchet-swinging lawman.
I read very little manga by Moyoco Anno, but what I have read has impressed me and what I've read about her has made me want to seek more of her work out. So with $30, I'd almost certainly nab Sakuran, Vol. 1, about a high-priced courtesan/geisha looking to escape her gilded cage.
If I really, really wanted to splurge, I'd plunk $125 down for the second printing of the Wally Wood EC Stories Artist Edition from IDW, of which I've only heard wonderful things. If my splurging had to be a little budget-friendly, and I was in a more academic mood, I'd at least flip through Cerebus: The Barbarian Messiah, a collection of critical essays on Dave Sim's controversial opus.
