The Asiana Airlines crash continued to cause flight delays at San Francisco International Airport on Monday, but the impact on other Bay Area airports isn't expected to be a problem Tuesday.
SFO's website said the runway where Asiana Flight 214 crashed Saturday "will remain closed for the immediate future" and that the airport is still "experiencing numerous delays and cancellations."
A separate notice on the Federal Aviation Administration's website Monday afternoon said the accident "is causing some arriving flights to be delayed an average of 2 hours and 32 minutes" at SFO.
Both SFO and the federal agency advised passengers to check with their airlines for more detailed information.
Vicki Day, spokeswoman for Mineta San Jose International Airport, said only four planes were shifted to San Jose from SFO on Monday, compared with 21 on the day of the Asiana crash. She added that it was common for a few flights a day to be moved to San Jose from SFO because of bad weather. Day predicted that Tuesday "is probably going to be pretty normal" for Mineta International.
A dozen to 15 flights that had been originally scheduled to land at SFO were rescheduled to land in Oakland on Monday, according to Oakland International Airport spokeswoman Kim Domerofski. She wasn't sure what might happen Tuesday, but added, "We can handle the additional rescheduled flights that are coming our way now" without incurring any flight delays.
SFO regularly updates general information about flight delays at www.flysfo.com/index.html. Delays at SFO and other Bay Area airports also can be checked through the Federal Aviation Administration's website, www.fly.faa.gov/flyfaa/usmap.jsp.

If you live in Columbia County your water bill goes up next month. The increase is just a dollar, but it all adds up to keep the Savannah River clean.
Wastewater manager Robert Hutchison checks Columbia County water daily to make sure contaminants aren't getting out into your water.
"The restrictions are getting stricter. Whenever you put out those kind of restrictions, it's gonna cost you," Hutchison said.
This system supports just over 27,000 homes. With expected growth in the county, officials say, the upgrade is needed. The extra dollar brings in over $320,000 more a year for improvements.
After the water comes in, it is separated from the solid waste. Over the years as Columbia County has grown, they've added more of these. The growth also adds to the cost.
The big pieces of solid waste like sand and even eggshells are removed. And then the water goes back to where it came from, the Savannah River.
We're actually discharging at a cleaner rate than the stream water," Hutchison said.
The water needs to stay this clean to protect drinking water. But the bill is an issue for Robert Boudreau.
"You have to make more money. Jobs don't increase, salaries don't increase, but bills are really going up," Hutchison said.
Columbia County is asking for more, so the health risk will be less. Sewage cost is also up because the water department added to their treatment facility to keep up with the growing population. You can expect to see the extra dollar on your bill in November.

Organic Farm
About the Organic Farm
Connected to main campus by two trails through the campus forest, the Organic Farm is a working small-scale organic farm that serves as a learning laboratory focused on small-scale organic agriculture. The Farm currently produces fruit, vegetables, and sheep. Produce is sold through a weekly farm stand on campus. The Farm Stand is open Tuesdays & Thursdays from 3-6pm during the growing season and is located in front of the library at the Olympia Campus. Check back regularly for schedule changes!
Located in the northwest portion of the Evergreen campus the 5-acre developed area includes the Farmhouse (built by students in the 1970's), 3 acres of fields and orchards, greenhouses, a closed-tunnel composting facility and miscellaneous outbuildings.
The Organic Farm is Certified Organic, by the Washington State Department of Agriculture, and has been certified Salmon Safe since 2008. We work diligently to protect riparian areas, maintain appropriate water use, reduce erosion, practice integrated pest management, animal management and biodiversity conservation in accordance with both Salmon Safe and Organic certifications.
The Organic Farm as a Living Laboratory
Supported by staff, student farm aides and faculty, students enrolled in the Practice of Organic Farming program (POF) work as interns on the Organic Farm throughout the entire growing season. The growing methods practiced and taught at the Farm provide a working example of organic agriculture with a focus on soil health. Students learn how to plan, plant, maintain and harvest a diverse array of crops while also developing a wide variety of agricultural skills. The internship is supported by academic work in the agricultural sciences. Yearly research projects test new crop and crop varieties, as well as ideas to improve the Farm.
Students can learn the art and science of making compost at the Compost Facility. Student-designed composting tunnels rapidly turn farm waste into compost for fertilizing the fields and orchards.
From building the Organic Farmhouse to being a significant part of the design process for the Sustainable Agriculture Lab, student projects have contributed significantly to the Farm. Other student projects include the Composting Facility, installation of the composting toilet, expansion of the orchard, creation of a master plan for the Organic Farm, design and installation of an aquaponics system, and a compilation of Farm history.
Student Groups and Activities at The Organic Farm
Community Gardens Is a Student Activities group dedicated to providing gardening space to members of Evergreen and the greater Olympia community. Every year, the Community Gardens hosts a Harvest Festival at the Farm to celebrate the end of the growing season!
Demeter's Gardens is a community-based demonstration site, embodying the principles of permaculture and perennial polyculture systems.
The Medicinal Herb Garden is a classical four square garden of herbaceous and woody plants with healing properties including common culinary herbs such thyme, rosemary and sage.

A man who called police claiming to be Jesus Christ is now in jail after he took police on a chase in Coolbaugh Township, according to Pocono Regional Police.
Police said Jules Callaghan, 42, of New Jersey, called 911 Thursday to report that he "couldn't get through the dark side" and then identified himself as Jesus Christ.
Police found him in the parking lot of the Full Gospel Holiness of God Church on Summit Avenue in Pocono Summit reading a Bible and wearing a medical admission bracelet on his wrist.
While police were checking his records, Callaghan started his vehicle, backed it up nearly into police cars, then took off at a high rate of speed onto Summit Avenue, where he was caught and arrested, police said.
He is charged with
escape, resisting arrest, fleeing police and other charges.

In these days of rising costs for everything from fuel to new vehicles, fleet managers are looking high and low for new ways to meet their budgets.
"You're asked to do more with less or the same budget," said Sam Lamerato, superintendent of Fleet Maintenance in Troy, Mich., a city of 83,000 people. "That's our biggest challenge. Rising fuel and oil costs are tearing up cities' budgets right now."
By talking with fleet managers in three cities across the country, PUBLIC WORKS magazine found a variety of best practices that are helping these managers meet their budget challenges head-on. In addition to Lamerato, we interviewed Charlie Caudill, fleet manager in Yuma, Ariz, (population 89,300), and David Higgins, director of fleet maintenance in Boston (population 600,000). Following are some of their best practices:
In-sourcing. The maintenance shops in Troy and Yuma take in vehicle repair and maintenance work from surrounding communities, which pay time and materials for services performed. The additional revenue helps Troy and Yuma defray overhead costs, and the other communities get the services for reasonable rates.
Active technician training. Five years ago, the city of Troy had no technicians certified by Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). Then the city offered an incentive of $100 more per month to technicians who gained ASE master certification. Today, 14 of the 15 technicians in Troy's Fleet Maintenance division have ASE master certifications, and three have dual certifications.
Aggressive vehicle replacement programs. "Our average vehicle is six and a half years old," said Yuma's Caudill. "That keeps our costs down because a younger fleet is less expensive to maintain."
Advanced use of computerized fleet management systems. Boston's Central Fleet Maintenance (CFM) Division uses Fleet Focus (FF) software, now serviced by Maximus, Reston, Va., to manage the maintenance information for some 1500 pieces of equipment. "FF generates all of our repair orders, tracks all parts and labor consumption and subcontracted work, and tracks our mechanics' productivity in bill-able hours," said Higgins.
In-Sourcing Revenue
In an exclusive survey of its readers, PUBLIC WORKS magazine found that most departments (74%) do not use in-sourcing—doing fleet repair or maintenance work for outside agencies or departments—as a form of revenue. Of those who do in-sourcing, 63% of respondents to this July survey indicated that they bring in less than $50,000 from this work.
The fleet maintenance department at Troy took in more than $170,000 of in-sourcing revenue for the year ending June 30, about $10,000 more than the prior year. The shop is fitting up sedans to make them police cars for neighboring Clawson, Mich. "We install the lights, radios and emergency equipment, push bumpers, shotgun racks, and more," said Lamerato. "And we also do that on a time-and-material basis for the Troy Police Department, so that's a revenue stream coming from the same city."
What's more, Troy maintains all fire apparatus for Clawson. And last winter, Troy stepped in when the automatic transmission on one of Clawson's snow plow trucks broke down. "The soonest a local repair shop could fix it was a week or 10 days," said Lamerato. "We fixed it and had it back in their hands in 48 hours."
The Troy shop also has worked for Huntington Woods, Mich., another Detroit suburb, and for Troy's private Medi-Go Plus, which runs four vans that deliver senior citizens to doctor's visits. Troy's shop runs a second shift that starts at 3:30 p.m., so the vans can be repaired overnight and are ready for use the following day, Lamerato said. "Our guys understand how important those doctor's visits are to the citizens," he said. "And since we took them over, we have substantially improved the condition of those vans.
Lamerato plans to do more in-sourcing. "Our reputation is becoming well known," he said. "We're in negotiations to do additional in-sourcing for neighboring communities."
In Yuma, Caudill does the same thing. "We're doing nearly $100,000 a year in work for outside agencies," he said. "That money helps keep the cost down for our existing customers." The city's Fleet Services division of the Public Works Department employs 10 full-time mechanics who maintain 708 vehicles and pieces of equipment, including 12 trash packers.
Fleet Services' operating budget is slightly more than $2 million, not including equipment replacement, so revenues from in-sourcing represent less than 5%. Still, said Caudill, "It pays the light bills, and helps us balance the budget."
The Yuma shop works for Somerton and San Luis, two neighboring communities, and for the local Humane Society, which operates 17 pickup trucks. Additional work comes in from the Yuma Metropolitan Planning Organization; the Yuma Crossing Park; the Yuma Territorial Prison, which is now a museum; and the local Cocopah Indian Nation.
Moreover, said Caudill, "We have a whole bevy of fuel contracts, and we have a markup on fuel." Among others, Fleet Services provides fuel for the Housing Authority of the city of Yuma and for a nine-bus fleet run by Yuma County Area Transit.
These two cities are the exception, however. According to survey respondents, 85% reported that their fleet maintenance department had no plans to add in-sourcing as a means to gain more revenue.

Updates on WebM Support – All Aboard!
June 2, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments
As could probably be predicted, there's been a lot more press around WebM over the last ten days or so. A few articles are worth noting.
CNET posted a reasonably ordinary piece regarding the quality of WebM, when compared against H.264. However, there were two interesting links in this piece.
The first pointed to a WebM project page where the indepth encoding parameters for WebM content are outlined. If you're planning to create WebM files, reading this page is essential.
The second link, to the quAVlive website provides some various examples of H.264 (using x264) encoding compared against WebM. I can't really see a lot of visual difference in the "Sunflower" example. However, it is easily clear to my eyes, without even enlarging the screenshots, that in "Park Joy" and "Riverbed" H.264 is certainly superior. I would like to have seen more information regarding the time taken to transcode these examples, with each codec, and the resulting file sizes. Picture quality isn't always everything, transcode time and storage requirements should also be taken into consideration.
Everyone's jumping on the WebM bandwagon with software and hardware support. Gstreamer claims full plugin support, which means in turn there is Moovida support and the Transmaggedon transcoder can also output VP8 codec files, although not in the Matroska/WebM container yet. Not to be outdone, Flumotion, will also stream live VP8/WebM content. The Miro Video Converter will also output valid VP8/WebM files, claiming to be the first to do so. The list could go on, but the easiest thing is to probably just keep tabs on the WebM project page listing all the supported devices and software tools, both commercial and open source.
Also worth a shout is the fact that both Mozilla and Opera are pushing for VP8/WebM to be specifically included in the HTML5 specification. Previously, major browser makers couldn't agree on one specific video file format – Mozilla and Opera backing Ogg Theora and Apple sticking with H.264. I can't see that particular situation changing now.

A Primer on Boehner v. Obama
The House of Representatives on Wednesday voted 225-201 to authorize Republican Speaker John Boehner to bring a lawsuit against the Obama administration accusing the president of overstepping his legal authority. Here are answers to some frequently asked questions about the unprecedented constitutional battle unfolding in Washington.
What is the House alleging Mr. Obama did wrong?
Mr. Boehner claims President Barack Obama has usurped Congress's powers under the U.S. Constitution by "attempt[ing] to make his own laws.' House leaders say the litigation will specifically focus on the White House's decision last year to give employers a one-year reprieve on enforcing a requirement under the Affordable Care Act that they offer health coverage or pay a penalty.
What are the House's chances in court?
The biggest obstacle for Mr. Boehner is getting the legal right to bring the lawsuit, a concept known as standing. Many constitutional scholars are skeptical that a court would agree to hear the case. Legal experts say a court may be wary of getting involved in such a politically charged dispute between the two branches of government, especially if it doesn't think it's possible in this case to draw clear lines around executive power. There's also the question of whether the House could meet the standing threshold without the Senate's blessing, among other potential issues.
Some conservative lawyers say that analysis misreads judicial precedents over the last century. "To assert an institutional injury to the House or Senate, courts want proof that the chamber, as an institution — and not a rump group of legislators — believes it has been injured," wrote conservative lawyer David Rivkin and Florida International University constitutional law professor Elizabeth Price Foley, who helped develop a legal road map for Republicans. "When legislators do represent their institution's views, however, courts have granted standing," they said. They note that federal courts have recognized a single chamber's standing to enforce congressional subpoenas against the executive.
What does the president think of the lawsuit?
Mr. Obama and Democrats are dismissive of the legal assertions made by Mr. Boehner, disputing Republican claims that his administration has failed to faithfully execute the law. "Everybody recognizes this is a political stunt," the president said of the lawsuit on Wednesday ahead of the resolution vote.
What happens if Obama loses the case?
This isn't a case where the loser has to pay a judgment or fine. The potential consequences are more political and symbolic. A judge could declare unconstitutional an action taken by Mr. Obama, establishing clearer limits of executive power moving forward.
When is the suit going to be filed in court?
The House isn't expected to bring the suit for at least another month, according to a person familiar with the case. It's not clear yet in which federal court the lawsuit will be filed.
Is the House actually suing Obama himself?
No. Although the case is commonly referred to as Boehner v. Obama, the named defendant will almost certainly be the new Health and Human Services Secretary, Sylvia Mathews Burwell, according to a person familiar with the suit. IRS Commissioner John Koskinen could also be named as a co-defendant.

Published: Sunday, November 25, 2012 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 26, 2012 at 12:48 a.m.
UPDATE: The charges against Guerin were nol processed and expunged from his record in 2012, according to court documents.

Google Posts French Privacy Warning, Follows Very Specific Instructions
Et voila. On Saturday morning, Google bowed to French authorities and posted a notice on google.fr informing users that it has been fined €150,000 ($204,525) for violations of France's privacy laws.
Google lawyers had tried to block the notice in an emergency hearing Thursday, arguing it would cause "irreparable damage" to the company's reputation while it appealed the overall ruling. But when the court ruled Friday that Google hadn't proved an urgent danger, the company had no choice but to follow instructions.
And they were very specific instructions. In its January decision (French), France's Commissions Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés specified an exact text for Google to publish, and went so far as to tell Google that the notice must be published "at a size no smaller than 13 points in the font called Arial," in a box that is "centered vertically and horizontally." The CNIL even specified the colors Google must use for the word "Communiqué" and the rest of the text, using RGB codes.
The overall case relates to the unified privacy policy that Google implemented in early 2012, which brought together different policies from across services such as Gmail and YouTube.
France's CNIL and data-protection authorities in other European countries have found that that the policy isn't sufficiently explicit about what Google does with data, and doesn't give users enough control. Google says the policy allows it to offer "simpler, more effective services," and conforms with European law.
Here's our translation of the CNIL's notice:
"Communiqué: The sanctions committee of the Commision Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés has ordered Google to pay a €150,000 fine for violations of the 'Data-Processing and Freedoms' law. Decision available at the following address: http:www.cnil.fr/linstitution/missions/sanctionner/Google/"
And here's our translation of the relevant portion of the decision ordering it to be posted:
In accordance article 45 of the law of 6 January 1978, as modified, the sanctions committee of the CNIL, after deliberations has decided to apply to Google a monetary sanction of €150,000 (one hundred and fifty thousand euros)
The CNIL also made its decision public on its website. Furthermore, it ordered the company to publish, at its own cost, on its public communications platform accessible to the public online at https://www.google.fr the following text:
"Communiqué: The sanctions committee of the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés has ordered Google to pay a €150,000 fine for violations of personal-data protection rules established in the "Data-Processing and Freedoms" law. Decision available at the following address: http://www.cnil.fr/linstitution/missions/sanctionner/Google/"
The publication of this bulletin shall occur under the following conditions:
-The publication is ordered for a duration of 48 consecutive hours beginning at 8 a.m. Paris time, the seventh day after the notification of the current decision.
-The communiqué will appear in a box specifically located at the page accessible at the address https://www.google.fr. This box will be inserted below the buttons "Google Search" and "I'm feeling lucky" and above the information strip on the bottom of the page that includes information the use of cookies. It will be centered vertically and horizontally.
-The published text will be framed using the style the company uses for information presented at the bottom of the page.
-The boxed text will be published at a size no smaller than 13 points in the font called Arial, sans serif. The RGB color (177, 68, 54) will be used for the word "Communiqué." The RGB color (102.102, 102) will be used for the rest of the text, including the hypertext link.
-The inserted box will reproduce exactly the following text: "Communiqué: The sanctions committee of the Commision Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés has ordered Google to pay a €150,000 fine for violations of the "Data-Processing and Freedoms" law. Decision available at the following address: http:www.cnil.fr/linstitution/missions/sanctionner/Google/
-The text http:www.cnil.fr/linstitution/missions/sanctionner/Google/ will contain a hypertext link available to users.
-At the end of the period determined above, the company will remove the text from the box.
Google Inc. is granted a two-month window from the date of notification of this decision to file an appeal before the Conseil d'Etat.

Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone had a non-shiny carvanha they could part with. Perferably male and adamant nature, but I'd be happy to get anything.
I haven't beaten the elite 4 yet (i'm looking to get a sharpedo before i do), but I can offer you some PP-ups, a TM, or a non-legendary pokemon you might be looking for. Thanks!

really i have shiny machoke, shiny roselia, or shiny garydoes (mispelled)
FOR A SHINY skarmory, or a shiny cyndiquill.
OH or shiny sharpedo!!!!
I am currently hatching for a Female Adamant/Jolly Carvanha. This bores me.
Thereby, could someone trade me a Female Adamant/Jolly Carvanha/Sharpedo? Better yet, just a A Sharpedo EV trained with the standard set.
Not putting up offers because I have too many. Maybe a Male Wailmer with Earthquake so you can get EQs without buying the TM.

Interested in finding a shiny Carvanha, no one has one looking for legendaries or exclusives do they?

Never miss another 'Craig Hill' show
Jock's Trap: Craig Hill
Scotland's favourite comic whirlwind hurtles back to the stage in 2013 with his brand new whip-crackingly exuberant show packed full of deliciously wicked comedy.
With his cheeky, irreverent and, of course, wonderfully camp blend of incisive stand-up, razor-sharp improvisation and fabulous musical characterisations, he has become one of Scotland's best-loved exports. His boundless energy, pitch-perfect stagecraft and superb audience rapport are perfectly matched to make each and every one of his live shows a joyously entertaining experience.

Craig Hill
'A high-camp, high-energy non-stop spate of gags, audience-directed invective (in the nicest possible way) and deadly-accurate take-offs of various chanteuses. Hill's voice and his impressions are so precise it's hard not to wonder if there wasn't a more serious musical career discarded in favour of comedy - except that keeping a straight face, or anything else for that matter, might be well-nigh impossible for such a lively and cheeky performer' (The Sunday Age, Melbourne, Australia)
'Hill had everyone in hysterics from go to whoa... this is one highland fling you'll
never regret... or forget!' (Adelaide Advertiser)
'Class. Risque, rib-tickling and absolutely screaming from the rafters... Absolutely hilarious!' (Evening News)
'High-octane... Irresistible... an hour with Hill makes for a cracking show!' (The List)
'... riotously funny... he is that rare thing, a naturally funny comedian' (The Independent)
'Priceless!' (The Scotsman).

3.8-6 Legal Malpractice - Settlement
Revised to January 1, 2008
With regard to the
plaintiff's allegation that the defendant rendered faulty
legal advice concerning accepting a settlement offer, it is
worthwhile to remember that pretrial settlement of claims is
encouraged because, in the vast majority of cases, an
amicable resolution of disputes is in the best interest of
all concerned. However, although such settlements are
desirable, attorneys giving advice to clients as to whether
to accept or reject offers of settlement are still required
to employ that same skill, knowledge, and diligence with
which they pursue all other legal tasks.
I point out to you
that an attorney would not be liable simply because the
attorney was unsuccessful in persuading an opposing party to
accept certain terms. Also, I remind you that an attorney
who pursues reasonable strategies and renders reasonable
settlement advice to the client cannot be held liable merely
because those strategies fail or because of an unprofitable
outcome that results because the client followed that
advice. While the law demands that lawyers handle their
cases with knowledge, skill, and diligence, it does not
require that attorneys be perfect or infallible nor that
they always secure the most successful outcome for the
In advising a
client concerning settlement, the attorney must exercise
that degree of learning and skill which the average and
ordinarily prudent attorney in that line of practice in
Connecticut would apply under all the relevant
circumstances. Consequently, the plaintiff must prove, by a
preponderance of the evidence, not only that the defendant
rendered certain settlement advice which the plaintiff
followed to his financial detriment, but also that the
advice given to (him/her) fell below the standard for
lawyers in that field of practice in Connecticut.
Grayson v. Wofsey, Rosen, Kweskin, & Kuriansky,
231 Conn. 168, 173-177 (1994).

VAIL, Colorado - True ski bums need three jobs, says Paul Testwuide.
• One so you can eat for nothing.
• One so you can drink for nothing.
• One so you can ski for nothing.
Testwuide and a friend left Sheboygan, Wis., in a $250 Ford they bought from the junkyard guy who built it from three other Fords, and headed West. They landed jobs building ski runs in Breckenridge, which had opened in 1961.
Fifteen days after Vail opened in 1962, he and Jim Clark ventured over to Vail, where they dropped into the Back Bowls for the first time and skied and skied and skied all day.
After they were done, Testwuide wandered into the Red Lion and ordered a beer. The choices were limited, and you could ski right to the Red Lion's front door in those days. An older guy - he seemed older at the time - wandered over and sat down to talk about skiing.
"I just had the best day of skiing I've ever had on Milt's Face," Paul said.
The guy was Larry Burdick, who had just opened the Red Lion. They talked about skiing, the bar business and life its own self.
Burdick said, "Paul, as soon as I fire that guy behind the bar you can be my bar manager."
Testwuide was back in Vail the following Monday and landed his three jobs: One to eat, one to drink and one to ski.
Most of his salary came in the form of scenery and skiing. His first check from Vail Associates paid him 64 cents an hour.
He worked at the Red Lion for several years, and one of his most famous waitresses was Sheika Gramshammer.
He lived with John Donovan in the middle of the village, right in the middle of the action.
"A lot of shenanigans went on. It was the nature of the people who came here. They wanted to have fun," Testwuide said. "People would ride horses right into the bar."
Testwuide omits the detail from that story that he was the equestrian who did it.
"Ray Romer, Clare Elliott and other early Vail police officers kept a low profile, but kept a lid on things. They'd give people a ride home, or make sure their horse wasn't tied up too tight," Testwuide said.
Some stories are legendary, some are just legends.
"Things got a little rowdy at times and I was usually right in the middle of it. As the town and the company matured, it seemed I matured right along with it," Testwuide said.
By Vail's second year Testwuide was part of the ski patrol and he rose through the ranks quickly.
"I started at the very bottom and worked my way up. I liked the management, Pete, Earl, Bob Mayne and others. They were the heart and soul of the Rocky Mountains as far as I was concerned," Testwuide said. "I think it was my love of Vail Mountain and the people who worked there that drove me to do better."
He was head of ski patrol when Bill Brown was mountain manager. A day started at 6 a.m., but there was no schedule, and things weren't as sophisticated as they are today.
"Snowcats broke down, lifts broke down, things went wrong. You had to be fast on your feet," Testwuide said. "It was a real adventure being a ski patrolman in those days."
Testwuide spent much of his career with the ski company, becoming one of the foremost water experts in the western United States.

It's been ten years since Bungie gave Xbox gamers the first Halo game, a console first-person shooter that didn't feel like the weak sister to the genre's PC alpha dogs. From that single title grew blossomed one of video game's most successful franchises, one which reshaped what it meant to play video games with other people. Now, Microsoft's commemorating a decade of Halo by issuing an upgraded remake of the series' first game. Is this trip down memory lane worth your money? Let's take a gut check.
Evan Narcisse, who counts the last Warthog escape in the 2001 Combat Evolved as one of the most thrilling—and frustrating—experiences on the original Xbox: You've played this game before, even if you haven't played Combat Evolved. While the game that started it all is an artifact of the last console cycle, the Halo DNA lived on and evolved into two direct sequels, one spin-off and a prequel. That means that you already know what this experience feels like. Yes, 343 Industries' remastering of the game that made Microsoft's first game console a success is a shiny and well-tempered love letter to Bungie's original code. But, as much nostalgia as I have at revisiting the deadly ringworld and as much as I marvel at the visual upgrades given to the game's sturdy mechanics, there's not enough new here to interest anyone other than Halo super-fans. The memories and nostalgia are powerful, but not so much that I can recommend shelling out $40 for Anniversary. No.
Once you get past the rough edges, which are to be expected in something ten years old, you quickly find that the meat and potatoes of Halo, both in singleplayer and multiplayer, are as enjoyable now as they were in 2001. Well, except for The Library. That sucks as much as ever, but not enough to stop this being a Yes.
I am terrified of sullying that pure memory with a gussied up version of the game that started it all. I suppose that's a concern with any HD remake, but for this one in particular, having made such an impact, it's quite a profound feeling.
If you've never played Halo: Combat Evolved before I can see picking up a copy of Anniversary just to fill in the missing chapter. As one of the millions of players that played and loved the original game, I'd prefer to keep my memories as they are and let 343 Industries get on with the business of showing us what they can do in Halo 4. No.

One need not be of German decent to enjoy Octoberfest in Lowell, but it helps to have a big appetite.
"I haven't been in about 10 years but I plan to go this year," said Jeff Steinel, 54, who is originally from Williamstown and relocated to Lowell after moving out of the area for some time. "I remember all the craft dealers and all the good food ... really the food."
The 38th Lowell Octoberfest will be held Saturday and Sunday on Buell Island, seven miles north of Marietta on Ohio 60.
From German potato salad, reubens and kielbasa to funnel cakes and cream puffs, the options are many ... just make sure to get there in time.
"Food is our biggest draw," said chairperson Terry Schwendeman. "Some years we run out ... it just depends on the crowd."
For a few years now, Schwendeman has driven to Columbus to pick up the ingredients for the world-famous jumbo cream puffs from Schmidt's Sausage Haus, based in German Village.

"Last year we got enough to make 500 and we sold out of those," Schwendeman said.
Money raised from the sale of food and raffle tickets will go back into the fund for upkeep of the pool and park on Buell Island. Parking and admittance is free.
Another draw for the third year in a row is the quilt auction to benefit the Lowell-Adams (L-A) volunteer fire and rescue department.
"This was planned for our social in July but we kind of got rained out," said chief Josh Harris. "The money raised from the quilt auction and country store will help us to buy additional equipment."
Lowell native and breast cancer survivor Loretta Miller has donated several quilts for the past two years that have helped to raise thousands for the department. This year she will have three Christmas-themed quilts and other items to auction on Saturday at 2:30 p.m.
"These guys have come out to help my family many times," said Miller, a current Washington state resident, who is in the area to support her ailing twin sister Joretta and will return west next week. "I knew I had this gift and I want to use it for good."
Miller said she took up quilting after moving to Washington and taking quilting classes. Sewing, she said, helped to keep her busy while undergoing radiation.
"I didn't know that I was actually keeping a family tradition by taking up quilting, but my grandmother quilted," she said.
A quilt of Miller's featuring photos of Lowell through the years brought $4,200 for the fire department at their social in 2011.
According to Schwendeman, there will be around 75 flea market, craft and antique vendors set up all around the island.
The event will officially kick off with a parade at 10 a.m. on Saturday. Participants will line up at the junction of Ohio 60 and Cat's Creek Road. This year's parade marshal is Fred Heldman, a longtime Lowell resident, Octoberfest volunteer and softball coach.
"I've been coaching since 1986 and I've coached everything but I mostly now coach older girls' fastpitch," Heldman said. "I do it for the kids because you have to keep them busy."
Heldman, a retired rural mail carrier, lives on the farm he grew up on and is happy to give back to his community.
"I think it is a great honor (to be parade marshal) and I am in good company," he said.

Q As a former firefighter, I did my best to do the following if I saw someone flipping a lit cigarette out their window, especially when I was in uniform. When I would be at a stoplight and see this, I would quickly get out of my car, pick up the burning butt and drop it back inside their car stating "you dropped something and it's a $1,000 fine for littering"!
Thor Poulsen
A And more cigarette litterbugs felt your wrath.
Q The last time I picked one up in civilian clothes, I flicked it back into a high-end convertible Mercedes then watched the driver pull over immediately, trying to get it out from between his seats. Another time at a stoplight I watched an entire ashtray of about 40 butts get dumped. I was able to scoop most of them up with both hands and pour them back onto the woman's lap.
It's time we take the litter off the streets and put it back where it belongs. Make people think twice!
Thor Poulsen
A I think you may have succeeded.
Q I was driving on Interstate 280 when a driver in an SUV threw a cigarette out his window. It hit my windshield and went down to where the wipers stay. I couldn't get off the freeway since it was one of those bumper-to-bumper days. When I did stop and was able to lift the hood, it was there on the shelf.
I wish we could put up signs that say: "Please keep your butts in your car."
Jean Gillette
San Jose
A And ...
Q I was so upset one morning, getting home and venting to my husband made me think of you. I was behind an SUV with a man with his window down, arm out enjoying the fresh air like me, he dropped his cigarette out his window. I live where it is getting so brown (Niles Canyon) I couldn't believe this idiot.
I drove up to him making a right turn while he made his left. I got to give him the peace sign with one finger. I hope he figured out what I said.
Sue Barnett
A I'm hoping he did, but don't raise the road-rage factor.
Q Mr. Roadshow, I appeal to you about a potentially dangerous condition on Highway 1. My wife and I were on our way to a concert and after passing through the Devils Slide tunnel (what a blessing for us coastsiders) and dropping down into Pacifica, we were confronted with a very hard stop for traffic in front of us. As we moved into Pacifica we could see that a temporary light was installed about 500 feet south of the signal.
Now it is obvious this is for a construction project; however, the main issue I have is that all Caltrans thought was needed was "Road Work Ahead" signs. To make that drastic of change without visual diagrams of the diversion is just plain negligent.
Mark Zborowski
Half Moon Bay
A Help is coming. Caltrans will add a "Signal Ahead" sign approximately 500 feet south of the new temporary intersection and will alter the message for the southbound electronic signs to state "SB Route 1 Detour" and "Turn Right at San Pedro Avenue."

DOE Lauds a Biofuels First: Producing Isobutanol from Cellulose
Researchers at DOE's BioEnergy Science Center have achieved another advance in the drive toward creating next-generation biofuels by using bacteria to convert plant matter directly into isobutanol. Using consolidated bioprocessing—a one-step process to produce biofuels—the team produced isobutanol directly from cellulose for the first time. Higher-grade alcohols such as isobutanol are better candidates for replacing gasoline than ethanol is because they have an energy density, octane value, and volatility that are much closer to gasoline. The process highlights the possibility of creating a new industry using bio-material such as wheat and rice straw, lumber wastes, corn stover, and specially-developed plants to produce biofuels.
The new research is part of a broad DOE effort to reduce U.S. dependence on foreign oil and to create new economic opportunities for rural America. Researchers at DOE's BioEnergy Science Center, led by DOE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), conducted the work. The team's findings are published online in the journal "Applied and Environmental Microbiology." See the press releases from DOE and ORNL, as well as the BioEnergy Science Center website.

TEXAS A&M - CORPUS CHRISTI (2-4) vs. UTSA (3-4)
Monday, Sept. 9 • 7 p.m. • Dugan Wellness Center • Corpus Christi, Texas
VIDEO | LIVE STATS | Twitter: @IslandersVB
CORPUS CHRISTI – The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi volleyball team will open its home schedule Monday, Sept. 9, vs. UTSA at the Dugan Wellness Center. The Islanders are coming off a 1-2 weekend at the Rice Invitational I including a five-set thrilling victory over UALR.
Texas A&M - Corpus Christi comes into the match with a 2-4 record while the Roadrunners hold a 3-4 record after compiling a 2-2 record in the UTSA Classic over the weekend.
The Islanders tallied a 9-1 record last season at the Dugan and opened the season 2-0 at home. The team is looking to clinch their first victory over UTSA in program history. Monday's contest will mark the 17th meeting between the two teams with the last meeting taking place in San Antonio on Oct. 19, 2011. Prior to that, the Islanders played host to the Roadrunners on Oct. 4, 2011.

Northwest's Largest Solar Facility Built Amid Wind Turbines in Washington
November 1, 2007
The Pacific Northwest's newest and largest solar facility began producing electricity this month. The 450-kilowatt (kW) Wild Horse Solar Facility, recently built by Puget Sound and Electric (PSE), is unique in that it is situated within the company's 229-megawatt (MW) Wild Horse Wind Facility.
The 9,000-acre site, about 125 miles southeast of Seattle, receives as much sunshine as Houston, Texas. The solar facility, which comprises 2,408 solar panels, is a demonstration project that will help PSE and the renewable energy industry learn about the viability of large-scale solar generation in the Pacific Northwest. In addition, PSE hopes to learn about the potential for integrating solar and wind power at the same site.
The $4 million solar facility was designed by EI Solutions of San Rafael, California. EI Solutions also managed the five-month construction of the arrays.
Next spring, PSE will install 300 more solar panels outside its Wild Horse Renewable Energy Center, about a mile from the solar facility. The center's panels will be manufactured by Silicon Energy LLC of Arlington, Washington.
Besides its Wild Horse Wind Facility, PSE owns and operates a 150-MW wind farm, Hopkins Ridge, near Dayton. Together, the wind farms produce 379 MW, enough energy to serve 100,000 homes. The Wild Horse Solar Facility will produce enough energy for about 55 homes.
For more information, see the PSE October 31 press release.

CLEARANCE - Three Days with Bobby Fischer
How to Meet Champions & Choose Your OpeningsProduct Code: B0014LV
Publisher: CIRC
Author: Alburt & Lawrence
Year of Publication: 2003
Pages: 285
Notation Type: Algebraic (AN)
Book Description
Three Days with Bobby Fischer and Other Chess Essays: How to Meet Champions & Choose Your Openings is a chess book you can sit back comfortably in your armchair and just read. Or, when you feel like getting the pieces out of the box and learning from some great games, tactics and strategies - that's all here as well. Nearly everyone with an interest in chess shares the same two questions?
What were the great champions like?
How can I choose opening moves that give me a good game?
Chess Hall-of-Famer and three-time US Champion Lev Alburt teams up with World Chess Hall of Fame Executive Director and Chess Journalist of the Year Award winner Al Lawrence to answer these questions - and tell the intriguing, inspiring and sometimes downright bizarre behind-the-scenes stories of the chess greats and near-greats, and how, above all else, they were men of their times.
* Steinitz, who codified the rules of good play, before going berserk
* Lasker, the chessboard Freudian who wielded psychological weapons
* Capablanca, dashingly handsome and to whom everything came easy
* Alekhine, a displaced person who gave up drink to win
* Under-rated Euwe, the last amateur to become world champion
* Botvinnik, who refrained from sex to preserve his phosphorus
* Smyslov, an amateur opera singer who brought chess an artist' s touch
* Tal, whose gaze and red-hot sacrifices wilted even the toughest wills
* Petrosian, who through chess became a paradox - a Soviet bourgeois
* Spassky, irreverent attacker who bowed to enigmatic Bobby Fischer
* Karpov, the positional boa constrictor of the board
* Kasparov, the charismatic boxer/chess-player remained at the top of his game for several decades.
And many more great players of the past and present who never made it to the very top, but nevertheless left their indelible mark on the game.

SACRAMENTO -- After a fiery and passionate debate, the state Senate this morning voted 28-1 to suspend all three lawmakers caught up in high-profile corruption cases.
Current law mandates that those disgraced elected officials -- Sens. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, Ronald Calderon, D-Montebello, and Roderick Wright, D-Inglewood -- receive their $90,526 annual salary while suspended. But Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento, also introduced a constitutional amendment that would give the Legislature power to suspend its members and not have to pay their salaries.
"We unequivocally distance ourselves from the unfathomable allegations contained in the Yee indictment as well as the other cases," Steinberg said, speaking about the suspension resolution. "Only this body may allow them back, and only if they are exonerated."
Steinberg said he was shocked to see so many of his colleagues face felony charges this year, which will be has last in the legislature because of term limits.
"One is an anomaly, two a coincidence, but three?" Steinberg said on the Senate floor before the vote.
Joel Anderson, a Republican senator from San Diego, was the only lawmaker who voted no. He said he was upset that Steinberg didn't suspend Wright and Calderson a few weeks ago as Republicans had asked and called Steinberg's efforts today "disingenuous."
Sens. Steve Knight, R-Antelope Valley, urged Steinberg to introduce a separate measure to suspend Wright, but he later voted in favor of the triple suspension measure.
The developments this morning come two days after Yee was indicted on charges stemming from a 4-year-long FBI sting operation that range from wire fraud to illegal gun running.
After this morning's vote, Paul DeMeester, Yee's lawyer, issued a statement saying: "Suspension is the right step for now, and is appropriate in a system that presumes the innocence of the accused."
Lawmakers who are suspended by their colleagues cannot participate in any votes or use their offices. They cannot even set foot on the floor of the Assembly or Senate floors, though they are allowed to enter the Capitol, which is a public building.
When lawmakers take voluntary leaves of absence, they can decide to end that leave and return to their duties in Sacramento at any time. Lawmakers who are suspended can only return when the body that voted to remove them votes to do so.
In February, Sen. Calderon surrendered to authorities after being indicted on bribery charges. A month before, Wright was convicted of voter fraud and perjury stemming from a 2010 indictment.
Today and in statements earlier this week, Steinberg addressed public criticism of the chamber, but stressed that the actions of these three disgraced lawmakers don't reflect the good work done by the rest of the body.
Steinberg also announced plans to cancel a Senate floor session in April so that lawmakers and their staffs can participate in mandatory ethics training and urged staff members with concerns about their bosses' behavior to come forward and report it.
Speaking with reporters shortly after the vote, Steinberg said the Senate already has "intensive" ethics training for lawmakers and staff members, but that there are some common-sense things you just can't teach.
"I know of no ethics class that teaches about the illegality or the danger of gun-running or other such sordid activities," he said.

Many shooters don't apply enough lead and consistently shoot behind their targets. A few use too much lead and shoot ahead of their targets. So how do shooters learn to use the right lead so their shot column and target simultaneously arrive at the same spot?
You can't shoot often enough while to master how much to lead your target," says Scott Robertson, who has been an exhibition shooter for Beretta for 16 years. "You have to learn proper lead on the shooting range. You must learn the right sight picture for various shot angles and speeds through good instruction and lots of practice."
Robertson says an instructor will tell students if they are shooting ahead of or behind the target and make appropriate corrections. He will also help them learn proper leads on a variety of target angles, such as 90-degree crossing, 45-degree crossing, incoming/descending, and others. "After the lesson, the student must practice on his own before the next lesson," Robertson says. "I try to pace my instruction so a student can shoot 300 to 400 shells between lessons."
Robertson stresses that shooters shouldn't avoid challenging shots. "To develop your game, you have to tackle those problem areas instead of avoiding them," he says.
Besides instruction and practice on the sporting clays range, Robertson urges hunters to gain as much experience shooting game birds as possible. This should not be viewed as practice, however. Whether shooting doves, waterfowl, or other birds, hunters have an obligation to develop proficiency before shooting live birds. Still, doves offer a true shooting challenge, and dove hunting serves as a great tune-up for waterfowl seasons to follow.
"Clay targets won't flare and dart," he says. "They won't change their flight paths quickly if you miss with the first shot. Live birds will do these things, and they will help shooters learn to adapt to changing speeds and flight paths."

EDMONTON, Alberta -- The Sharks are anything but middle of the road when it comes to their starts this season.
San Jose exploded for six goals in the first 20 minutes Tuesday night, then held on for a 6-3 win over the Edmonton Oilers. The outburst set a franchise record for most goals in a period on the road, and San Jose won its second straight to open this shortened 48-game season.
Yes, San Jose was conscious of its terrible start in Calgary in the season opener, but coach Todd McLellan said his team had a second motivation as well.
"There was a lot of talk about them (the Oilers) skating and taking the tempo to us," he said. "We wanted to turn the tables on them a little bit and put pucks in areas where we could use our size."
The Sharks used both size and skill to put the game out of reach early. Patrick Marleau equaled his opening day sniping with two goals -- one on the power play and one at even strength. Logan Couture matched that. Two goals came from the blue line: Dan Boyle's on an early power play, Marc-Edouard Vlasic's to wrap up the scoring at even strength.
All before the first intermission.
"It was the first thing Coach talked about when we came in here -- don't be reactive, go for it," Couture said. "And that's what we did."
More on that first period later. Because as impressive as it was, there were areas where it was obvious the Sharks still needed work.
The penalty kill remained a work in progress as a pair of Oilers rookies -- right wing Nail Yakupov and defenseman Justin Schultz -- both got their first NHL goals on power plays, Schultz's coming with a two-man advantage.
Still, the penalty kill did find success late in the game.
Oiler forward Taylor Hall scored at 3:34 of the third period to fuel Edmonton's comeback dreams. But San Jose's short-handed effort ended those when rookie Matt Irwin was sent off for tripping at 7:47 and Joe Pavelski was called for delay of game at 11:31, and the score stayed 6-3.
Sunday night in Calgary, the Sharks were inept for the first 20 minutes, though the Flames didn't come close to taking full advantage of eight giveaways and only led 1-0 as stellar goaltending by Antti Niemi kept San Jose in a game it went on to win 4-1.
Against Edmonton, San Jose had no giveaways in the first period and was able to capitalize on the seven by the Oilers as goalie Devan Dubnyk let six of 17 shots get past him before being replaced by backup Yann Danis for the final 40 minutes.
Early penalties 47 seconds apart to Oilers Ales Hemsky and Jeff Petry gave the Sharks an extended 5-on-3 advantage early in the game. Boyle's slap shot at 3:17 opened the floodgates and 73 seconds later Couture gave the Sharks a 2-0 lead.
Yakupov scored his goal at 8:25 with Brad Stuart in the penalty box for interference, but Marleau got that one back at 10:02 and then widened the gap at 11:07 after a roughing penalty by Oilers defenseman Corey Potter.
Marleau's first goal was another one beautifully set up by Joe Thornton from behind the net.
"I just kind of saw Patty out of the back of my eye," Thornton said. "He was wide open. He made a beautiful shot and put it in far side."
The Sharks added their final two goals in the first period's final two minutes with Couture scoring at 18:09 and Vlasic with 39.7 seconds remaining.
The previous record for most goals in a period on the road was five, accomplished twice and most recently in a 7-6 victory over Chicago on Oct. 27, 1996.
That could change as soon as Wednesday after the team returns to San Jose.
Gomez took part in Tuesday's morning skate as the Sharks prepared for their game against the Oilers, and afterward McLellan made it clear he has liked what he has seen.
"He's coming across as a very hungry player, a guy that would love to prove himself right before he proves everybody else wrong," McLellan said, "and that's a pretty strong motivator."

A 92-year-old northeast Missouri woman is dead after falling into a small pond at her home.
Authorities say Hazel Martin died Wednesday. She was using a pail to get water from the pond for plants on her family's property near Wyaconda when she fell in and couldn't get out.
Martin's husband tried to save his wife of 72 years, as did a neighbor with CPR, but she was pronounced dead at the scene.

BAKERSFIELD -- East Bay competitors showed they belonged on the big stage at the California Interscholastic Federation Wrestling Championships.
Eight locals, including the James Logan High trio of Artemio Flores, Jacob Macalolooy and Clayton Hartwell, advanced to Friday night's quarterfinals at Rabobank Arena.
Even though only Flores earned a spot in the semifinals, at 126 pounds, the North Coast Section participants made their mark. Flores, who had a 3-2 mark at state last year, walloped Wasco freshman Joshua Hokit 11-0 in the quarters.
"Artemio has a great draw," Logan coach Eli Bagaoisan said of Flores' Saturday morning matchup against Wyatt Wyckoff of Paradise, the Northern Section champion. "He's never wrestled the kid before, but he's on a mission to win the title. He's in the zone right now."
Clearly, the quarterfinals took a little of the hop from the step of the NCS contingent.
Freedom junior Ricky Coster, one of three East Contra Costa County quarterfinalists, fell 5-1 against Julian Flores of San Marino (Southern Section).
Liberty senior Austin Solari dropped a tense 2-0 decision against highly touted San Diego Section champion Ralphy Tovar of Poway.
Heritage senior Joey Vigil, who wrestled brilliantly and won by fall in the second and third rounds, ran into a Southern Section powerhouse in Zahid Valencia of St. John Bosco-Bellflower in the quarterfinals. Valencia, a returning state champion ranked No. 1 in the country, pinned Vigil in 4:35 after taking a big lead.
Semifinalists clinch at least a top-six spot, and medals go to the top eight in each division. Those who lost in the quarterfinals need one more win Saturday morning in the fifth round of consolation to earn a medal.
Others falling in the quarterfinals were Livermore's Tyler Rardon (152 pounds), Granada's Kyle Campiotti (160), along with Logan's Macalolooy (138) and Hartwell (195). De La Salle, which won a fifth consecutive NCS team title last week, advanced Nathan Cervantes (120), Payton Russom (145) and Aaron Pease (170) into the third round. None of them made it to the quarterfinals.
Campiotti enjoyed quite a ride this season, considering he failed to qualify for state last year as a gifted three-sport athlete. He lost just 3-1 against Ray Lomas of Central Catholic-Modesto in Friday's quarterfinals after winning by fall in the third round.
In the second round, Vigil won with a quick pin over Reedley's AJ Rosas, then he steamrollered Jorge Carbajal of Bloomington of the Southern Section, winning by fall in the second period.
Coster beat Madera's Daniel Ruiz 2-0 in the second round, and Amador Valley junior Tommy Yozzo (126), who finished third at NCS, carved out two tough wins to advance to the third round. Yozzo then lost 3-1 against Southern Section champion Justin Thomas, a heralded freshman from Santiago-Corona, before bowing out in consolation by injury default.
Granada's Angel Beltran (138) and Campiotti thrilled a good turnout of Matadors supporters by each advancing through the second round, as did Rardon, Livermore's two-time NCS champion.
Saturday's championship round begins at 7:15 p.m.

December 21, 2012
Businesses have saved a total of £836 million between January 2011 and January 2013 thanks to the Government's commitment to reducing red tape, according to an independent report.
"One-in, one-out" – the Government rule that dictates that every new cost on business must be balanced by an equivalent saving – is being credited with the achievement.
Now the Government expects to reduce the regulatory burden by a further £83 million between January and June 2013 when "one-in, one-out" is replaced by "one-in, two-out". Expected measures include reforms to environmental regulation, employment law and consumer law.
The report shows that the overwhelming majority of Government measures affecting business are deregulatory, with only ten new items imposing new costs on business compared with 89 that will save money or will impose a zero net cost.
Recent deregulatory measures include:
Business minister, Michael Fallon, said: "The Government has a very simple objective: to make the UK the best place in Europe to start, finance and grow a business. This requires a fundamental culture change in Whitehall, so that new regulation is only imposed as a last resort. We'll now push departments to go further to bear down on costs imposed on business, and we'll fight harder to get EU bureaucracy off the back of our entrepreneurs."
Alexander Ehmann, head of regulation at the Institute of Directors (IoD), said: "The Government's red tape bonfire has begun to burn under Michael Fallon's watch. With 'one-in, two-out' kicking in from 2013, businesses hope that the deregulation savings delivered so far could eventually increase to £4 or £5 billion."

AUSTIN (April 26, 2013)—Gov. Rick Perry expressed "disgust and disappointment" on Friday at an editorial cartoon that appeared in a California newspaper that shows him boasting about business booming in Texas just before a major explosion.
The cartoon in The Sacramento Bee shows Perry crowing that "Business is Booming" and flanked by signs that say, "Low Tax" ''Low Regs!"
The next panel reads "Boom!" as an explosion engulfs the area behind the governor.
The cartoon doesn't make direct reference to the explosion last week at the fertilizer plant in West that killed 14 people and injured 200 others, but the implication is clear.
In a letter to the Bee's editor Friday, Perry said he wouldn't stand for "someone mocking this tragedy."
He demanded an immediate apology for the newspaper's "detestable attempt at satire."
Fellow Republican and Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst called for the firing of the artist, political cartoonist Jack Ohman.
