We've been through this before. Mass killings lead to a groundswell of demands for more and better gun controls. As the weeks pass into months, the clamor slowly subsides and very little comes of it.
Will it be different this time? Will the Newtown school killings result in some legislative action? A short random survey in East Contra Costa indicates that most locals doubt that anything will or should be done to stop guns or assault weapons from getting into the hands of crazies. And, the gun lobby already is hard at work putting the blame elsewhere.
Kristen Chardin of Antioch said, "I don't think anything is going to change. I'm behind the American right to bear arms. We have lots of laws on the books to control abuses. The problem is we don't enforce them. Simply put, we aren't tough enough using the laws we already have."
"Gun laws are fine just the way they are," echoed Vicki Pierce of Oakley. "Guns don't kill. People do it. The big thing I learned from the school killings is to take it personally. I am determined to teach my three kids respect and responsibility when it comes to guns."
Jabari Mpagazi of Discovery Bay said, "There's more noise about gun control laws now after the school horror. But, when the votes will be tallied it'll be close but don't expect any new action to come of it. Too many people don't see gun control or assault weapons as a real issue. The school killer would have killed even if he had no guns."
Bob Gayewski of Antioch put it bluntly, "The NRA is too strong. It has the support of enough people to fend off change. Real change didn't happen before in other mass killings and it won't happen now. People enthusiastic about guns are all over America. And their voices are loud."
Don Mori of Brentwood is a sportsman hunter. "Anything they try to do now will only hurt those of us who are good gun owners," he claimed. "There is no way we can stop these mass killings. Real reform isn't going to happen in our time."
"With the crime rate what it is, it's doubtful that Americans will accept new laws to control weapons," said Ed Yahn of Bethel Island. "We simply don't have enough faith in the police to protect us. They aren't strong enough. We have to have guns, but maybe some types should be restricted."
Oakley's Marnie Gonzales agrees. "People want to keep the right to own guns and the NRA is so powerful that it's very hard to take them on," she said. "It's unfortunate, but the school shootings as news will simmer down and the country will start to forget it."
"The issue is just too complicated and too political," added Sally Hensen of Oakley. "Nothing will happen on new gun controls because it really won't change violence. There are too many other factors involved."
Antioch's Jimy Williams sees it differently. "Shock over the school massacre should accomplish something on assault weapons despite it being complicated and tough. But, there should be more emphasis on the other end of the spectrum, monitoring the mentally ill."
William Shapiro of Brentwood sees a slim ray of hope. "With the next election two years away, we may see some courage on the part of congress. There's less pressure on the legislators to pacify their electorate. It's not much, but it's a thought."

Let them know that it isn't the parks guys doing all the course improvements and out of the ordinary maintenance to the course, and invite them to help out and bring their tools on the next work day. Sometimes they will actually show up and help but most of them get the point and start taking a little ownership of the course and it's well being.

It will take some work but how about cutting them down to 6"-8" tall, welding tabs on them and securing them with the heavy plastic zip ties?
I can get tons of those from work to give to all of us who have keys.
Most of us have snips in our bags to cut them loose when we move baskets.
We need to keep the pin placements clean while not in use so I don't see leaving them open as an option.

On 28 August 1963 Martin Luther King, Jr. organised a now historic march to Washington to show the importance of solving the United States racial problems. About 250,000 people gathered and listened to his immortal words: "I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character".
A year later, in 1964, Martin Luther King, Jr. was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In his acceptance speech he said:
"I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality".

Definition of prosody in English:
- He cared deeply about Greek and Latin history and mythology and possessed a comprehensive knowledge of the prose, poetry and prosody of the eighteenth century.
- There is no song without prosody, no prosody without song.
- By contrast, Chapter 6 uses the prosody of classical Greek poetry to illuminate the Seventh Symphony.
- Further ventures into prosody and theory I leave until senior classes.
- By good luck I heard that a former professor of mine was about to teach a course in prosody - the study of poetic metre, rhyme and stanza.
- Surviving journals, notebooks, and letters articulate his profound responsiveness to nature and beauty, his acumen as a literary critic and theorist of prosody, his playful wit and devoted friendliness.
- The current dude flap features exchanges consisting entirely of occurrences of the word dude, with varying prosodies and accompanying gestures, the whole thing telling a story.
- Craft lore was his phrase for the kind of knowing that's always just escaping our grammars and prosodies - partly, we surmise, because these are described knowledges.
- The mother's spoken responses, which at first convey to the baby only feelings - the shared affective language of posture and prosody - begin to carry specific semantic content.
prosodic (or prosodical /prəˈsädikəl/ /-ˈzäd-/) adjective
- Example sentences
- Promising the would-be poet a freedom from formal constraints, the irregular ode, with its lofty manner, prosodic liberty, and intensity of feeling, attracted many writers, most of whom were not equipped for its demands.
- The distinction casts light on Coleridge's prosodic jottings in his notebooks, but is not directly germane to the present concern.
- In grammar, syntax, and metrical system Japanese shares nothing with English, and if one tries to obey the prosodic principles of Japanese, as some earlier translators did, the result is likely to be both verbose and ludicrous.
- Example sentences
- As poet, prosodist and epistolarian, words in their millions ran through his fingers, like the sands of the desert.
Late 15th century: from Latin prosodia 'accent of a syllable', from Greek prosōidia 'song sung to music, tone of a syllable', from pros 'toward' + ōidē 'song'.
accent from Late Middle English:
English distinguishes the different parts or syllables of a word by stressing one of them, but the ancient Greeks pronounced them with a distinct difference in musical pitch. Syllables marked with a grave accent (for example à, from Latin gravis 'heavy, serious') were spoken at a comparatively low pitch, those with an acute (á, from Latin acutus 'sharp, high') at a higher pitch, and those with a circumflex (â, from Latin circumflexus, 'bent around') began at the higher pitch and descended during the pronunciation of the syllable. This gives some explanation of why the root of accent is Latin cantus 'song', which was a direct translation of the Greek word prosōidia (source of prosody (Late Middle English) 'versification'). Quite a few languages (technically known as 'tonal' languages) still have this musical way of speaking, among them Chinese and Swedish.

RIO DE JANEIRO, 18 June 2012 - A financing agreement worth over EUR 350,000, signed today by the Director-General of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and the Director-General of the Agence Française de Développement (AFD) will help destroy in an environmentally-friendly way some 166 metric tons of unwanted ozone-depleting substances in Mexico.
UNIDO's Kandeh K. Yumkella and Dov Zerah of AFD signed the agreement during Rio+20, the UN Conference on Sustainable Development taking place in the Brazilian capital.
The pilot demonstration project will be jointly implemented by UNIDO and the French Global Environment Facility (FFEM). It is funded by the French bilateral contributions to the Multilateral Fund.
The project seeks to identify the best technical solutions to avoid releasing unwanted ozone depleting substances that have a high global warming potential into the atmosphere, and to eliminate them by using destruction technologies approved under the Montreal Protocol, an international treaty designed to phase-out substances responsible for the ozone depletion.
"Today's contribution agreement is another testimony to our increasing cooperation with AFD as well as with the French Global Environment Facility (FFEM)," said Yumkella.
UNIDO and the Agence Française de Développement also signed a financing agreement on a FFEM contribution of EUR 900,000 that aims to reduce the impacts of mercury on human health and the environment in artisanal gold mining communities in Burkina Faso, Mali and Senegal. This will be done by adapting the so-called fair-trade-gold concept developed in South America to the West African context.

SAN JOSE -- After just a few left-left-left-right-lefts into the Tournament of Roses Parade on New Year's Day, the East Meets West Fusion Band will face its first major hurdle: a tricky 105-degree turn that could trigger a colossal marching-band malfunction.
That's because nearly half of the band's 235 members will have just arrived from Beijing and may not have had time to perfect the move with their counterparts from San Jose's Valley Christian High School.
But such are the risks you take when you (1) pair up your award-winning marching band and color guard with a band from a state-run school in China, then (2) get yourself accepted as one of the 24 bands marching in the famed Rose Parade, and in the process (3) enter the record books as the first dual-nation group to participate in what's known as "America's New Year Celebration.''
"Just being chosen to march in the Rose Parade is an incredible opportunity,'' Valley Christian's band director Troy Gunter said Saturday morning as the band and guard gathered on campus to prepare for the big show. "But doing it alongside the Chinese marching band from Beijing's No. 57 High School makes this a truly historic event.
"And while we'd certainly love to have more rehearsal time,'' said Gunter, "given the fact that the two schools are on different continents limits us somewhat.''
The rehearsal schedule has been, to put it mildly, unorthodox. Gunter, who had previously taken his students to Thailand and Cambodia, accompanied the current group in April to Beijing. There, the Mandarin-challenged kids from San Jose got to meet and march a bit with the English-challenged half of the East Meets West gang, perhaps the only marching band with a subtitle -- "From The Great Wall to the Golden Gate.''
"We didn't know what to expect,'' said tuba-player Nicholas Heliotis, 16. "But despite the language barrier, we had a delightful time.''
Tenor saxophonists Carly Pritchett, 16, said "it was hard at first, because our official translator didn't know how to say a lot of the band terms in Mandarin. But then we found out one of our students from Valley Christian spoke Chinese and was able to get us all on the same page.''
As the students stretched out on the wood floors at Valley Christian's rehearsal hall on Saturday, Gunter laid out next week's battle plan: Dec. 26, the San Jose members rehearse all afternoon, while the Chinese students go sightseeing in San Francisco. Dec. 27, both bands hook up at Gilroy Gardens where they'll have enough room to practice their parade routine, weather-permitting. Dec. 28, the two bands rehearse together at Valley Christian and then everyone hits the road to Pasadena.
"We won't have much time to rehearse,'' said drum-major Mark Muendelein, 17. "So they'll have to learn that 105-degree turn really fast.''
The Valley Christian kids got a head-start on Saturday, studying a video of another high school band making the harrowing turn in a previous Rose Parade, and then practicing it themselves for the next half-hour. With band members 11 abreast, the complicated turn-on-a-dime move practically cries out for a human train-wreck on Colorado Boulevard, midway through the 5.5-mile parade route.
The musical part of the show likely will come off without a hitch. The musicians should easily nail the two march songs -- famed South Carolina composer Jay Bocook's Aztec Fire and another original by him that melds an American folk tune called Shenendoah with the Chinese classic Jasmine Flower. And their specially created uniforms -- blue for Valley Christian, red for No. 57 -- is sure to create a nice visual for parade-watchers in Pasadena along with the millions watching it on their TV sets.
But what if this Chinese-American mash-up of a marching band blows that big right turn?
"We don't really have much of a Plan B,'' says Gunter. "So this just has to work.''

When You Love Makeup Enough to Eat It
A woman in Toledo can't control her insatiable cravings for cosmetics
Let's back up.
Meet Brittoni, a 22-year-old woman who "wants to be beautiful on the inside too." Nothing wrong with that except that rather than maybe volunteering for a charity or working on her spiritual self, Brittoni took the literal route and started eating makeup.
READ: 12 Best Eyeshadows
On TLC's "My Strange Addiction," the show that's showcased a woman who eats her dead husband's ashes, one who sucks on dirty diapers and a guy who makes out with his car, Brittoni revealed that she's been addicted to consuming cosmetics since she was 9 years old and is now up to a 15-20 compact a day habit that sets her back $200 each week.
"It's like a craving of your favorite candy bar," the Toledo, Ohio resident explains of her compulsion to ingest makeup -- particularly eyeshadow. "I prefer the gray, white and brown colors, they taste cleaner than dark colors."
As with any "food," taste matters and there are some brands and items that Brittoni prefers over others so she makes sure to test everything before buying it. "When I come into the store, I have to taste to make sure. If it's not the right kind, [and] nobody seen me lick it? I will put it back. I don't want to get stuck with something I'm not going to eat or wear."
And, like any addict, Brittoni doesn't like to be far from her substance of choice. That's why she hides makeup around her house (in the couch, under the bed, etc.) so she's never too far from a fix.
Naturally, Brittoni's family (most of whom have a penchant for sprinkling baby powder on their food before eating it -- but that's a story for another day) and her fiancé are worried about the health ramifications associated with ingesting non-edible items -- especially since was diagnosed with heart disease at age 12, a diagnosis her physician thinks could stem from the chemicals she's been putting into her body.
Lead, nickel, cadmium and arsenic are but a few of the toxic substances to be found in some cosmetics and none of them are safe to eat. This is not lost on Dr. Jack Siebenaler, the Medical Director of Oregon Urgent Care in Toledo, who cautions Brittoni that additional heart ailments and perhaps even cancer could result from her continuing to indulge in her cravings for cosmetics.

Major active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturers are cutting back on new capital investments in facilities in response to problems with their core chemical businesses, but biopharmaceutical companies shouldn't face capacity shortages in the foreseeable future. In the meantime, new outsourcing opportunities are opening up in clinical-scale contract manufacturing.
The biopharmaceutical product pipeline is moving again, backed by renewed funding from venture capitalists, public equity investors, and major pharmaceutical companies seeking licensing deals. However, the biomanufacturing industry is not necessarily responding with the same enthusiasm as investors, forcing biopharmaceutical company executives making key manufacturing decisions to monitor developments beyond their normal purview.
The issue stems from the fact that the fortunes of major contract biomanufacturers — such as Lonza, DSM, Diosynth, and Cambrex — are bound closely to developments in their core fine chemical businesses, including custom pharmaceutical chemicals manufacturing. The always-cyclical fine chemicals industry is in the midst of a difficult period. Pharmaceutical intermediates and actives have been impacted especially hard, with many major chemical companies experiencing revenue declines of 10 to 30% in 2003 and even more drastic declines in profits. The industry has been hit by a "perfect storm" of adverse events, including overcapacity, product failures and cancellations, weak new product pipelines, the rising value of the euro versus the dollar, Asian competition, and highly-leveraged balance sheets.In response to the crisis, the chemical companies are moving to "rebase the business," in the words of Lonza chairman Sergio Marchionne, by selling or closing down facilities, halting capital investment, and reducing staff. As much as 20% of GMP chemical manufacturing capacity will be eliminated at many companies. Management attention has turned from driving rapid growth to carefully utilizing existing capacity as fully as possible.
Reduced Biomanufacturing Investment Despite signs of a re-energized biopharmaceutical market, biomanufacturing investments have not been spared from the conservative outlook that pervades the chemical industry's executive suites. Recent experience with chemical manufacturing has made industry executives more skeptical of rosy projections for biopharmaceutical production, and the skepticism is bolstered by major contract cancellations suffered by Lonza and Cambrex in 2003. That aversion to risk, coupled with their constrained financial capacity and the desire to fully utilize assets already on the ground, have led some companies to scale back their biomanufacturing investment plans.
A case in point is Lonza, which is completing a major expansion of its Portsmouth, NH, manufacturing facility, including the installation of three 20,000-L cell culture bioreactors. Thanks to its recently announced contract to manufacture Rituxan for Genentech, Lonza has virtually sold out its large-scale manufacturing capacity. Rather than commit to building more large-scale capacity, however, the company is looking into moving some production currently slated for the 20,000-L bioreactors to existing 5,000-L equipment. The 5,000-L bioreactors are more costly to operate on a per-gram basis, but Lonza's 5,000-L bioreactors are substantially underutilized owing to contract cancellations in 2003. Moving production to the smaller bioreactors will enable Lonza to more fully utilize existing assets while avoiding additional capital investment.
In addition, Lonza announced that it is reducing investment in its new microbial fermentation plant in Visp, Switzerland, primarily by planning to use existing downstream processing and purification capabilities rather than installing new equipment. Other companies are showing restraint in building new facilities. Industry sources report that DSM slowed its expansion of the DSM Biologics facility in Montreal, Canada, which includes installation of two 15,000-L bioreactors. Dowpharma has yet to proceed with expansion of its Smithfield, RI, facility, despite much talk of doing so in recent years.
Near-Term Capacity Sufficient Despite the reluctance to invest, there are no indications of a looming disastrous shortfall in biomanufacturing capacity. Merck KGaA is confident enough about capacity availability to announce it will rely on contract manufacturers to supply API for two monoclonal antibody products it is developing, including the European version of Erbitux.
And new capacity is still coming onstream. Sandoz recently opened a new cell culture manufacturing facility with 13,000-L and 3,000-L bioreactors. Avecia recently completed installation of two 5,000-L microbial fermentation tanks.
"On the aggregate, the supply and demand numbers look pretty well matched right now," notes Howard Levine, president of BioProcess Technology Consultants. However, Levine warns that some companies could have problems. "Access to capacity and overall facility utilization rates would suggest that some companies could have difficulty in obtaining capacity," he says.
Longer-term, the availability of commercial manufacturing capacity will depend on process improvements as much as investments in new facilities. "If expression levels routinely reach 1 g/L (several companies are already there) and overall yields increase to 60% (again some companies claim to be there already), a 5,000-L bioreactor now produces 3 kg per batch, making it a viable scale for production of 50 kg or more per year," says Levine. In addition, higher expression levels mean companies will need to run fewer batches in larger bioreactors, which will also increase capacity.

FIVE QUESTIONS WITH ... Sonora High forward Jimmy Golden
Few teams have been able to put together a more impressive start than the Sonora High boys basketball squad.
The Raiders have compiled an 18-3 overall record, and a 4-1 mark in league has them tied atop the Freeway League standings. Maybe more notable is the way Sonora has gone about its business. Of the team's 18 wins, 17 have been by double digits, and two of its three losses have come by a single point.
Senior forward Jimmy Golden leads the team in scoring, averaging just over 20 points per game. Golden is the third leading scorer in all of Orange County and has established himself as the go-to guy on a team that really knows how to score in basketball.
Q. Do you have any pregame rituals?
A. We like to goof around before games. I listen to a little music like Waka Flocka Flame. Sometimes I like to switch it up, but that's pretty much it.
Q. How would you describe your game?
A. I'm a shooter. I'm trying to work on my mid-range game, too, to be more complete.
Q. What are your plans after high school?
A. I'm not sure. I've been talking to a couple of schools – Hope International in Fullerton and Chapman. I've been to Hope and checked out a game. I met coach (Bill Czech). He's a cool guy, and they're pretty good.
Q. What is the most difficult venue for you and your team to play?
A. Sunny Hills. There are so many students, and it's such a huge gym. They get crazy. You can hear what the fans are saying, but you just try to ignore it and play.
Q. What is your greatest basketball accomplishment thus far in your career?
A. This year, so far, has been. We're 18-3, and we can really score. We want to win CIF, and I'd like to be on an All-CIF team. We just have to focus, be enthusiastic and be ready.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Thursday, Dec. 6, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Board members say there's nothing else like it in Augusta.
And in this tough economy, a school like this will do what many other schools can't.
"The ultimate goal is employment," Principal Renee Kelly said.
Employment is a goal many students have failed even after a four-year college degree, but leaders are hoping this hands-on high school will help change that.
"This is the wave of the future, to have these young people the ability to go to a school and get them a job that will pay them when they get out," said District 6 School Board member Jack Padgett Jr.
"For the very first year, we have currently computer networking, culinary, broadcast video and banking," Kelly said.
Now that the building's done, it's just a couple more weeks before these halls are filled with 150 handpicked Richmond County students, and Principal Kelly is thrilled.
"Definitely up to my expectation. This is gorgeous. This facility is state of the art. Having those hands on and having the necessary equipment to do the job we're asking them to do will definitely be a reward for them," she said.
Each classroom was designed with a specific purpose in mind. For example, the art room has a lot of natural light, color and patterns to the floor.
But classrooms aren't the only places where learning will happen -- the building itself is a teaching tool.
If you look up to the ceiling, you will see pipes and conduits.
"Definitely not a traditional or typical high school," Kelly said.
While there are still a few finishing touches left to be done, like rails on the stairs and smart boards on the walls, Kelly says she's ready to get started.
"We're hoping that we can guide our students to be not just a worker, but become passionate about what they're going into and then it doesn't become work," she said.
The freshman class has already been chosen. Each year they'll add another class until they reach capacity of 750 students.
Current students have been at Lamar Elementary while this building is being finished.
Unfortunately, they won't be able to unwrap it all by Christmas, but it won't be too much longer. Classes start Jan. 3.
Students will also have the opportunity to do a dual enrollment with Augusta Tech in their junior year.

Given that, you can only imagine my sheer delight when Capella Singapore's Pastry Chef Sam called me into his kitchen to share the new profiteroles recipe he is working on for The Knolls.
I was very grateful that Chef Sam took time out of his busy schedule to teach me. According to Chef Sam, "I always believe to teach is to learn twice. By teaching I get to learn a second time, and also it gives me insights on ideas other people may have, which could eventually become part of my next idea for a new creation."
Chef Sam's profiteroles were indeed heavenly and they were surprisingly easy to make. They were light with a slight bite and with a rich golden brown colour. The profiteroles were sweet at first bite, but with a mild salty aftertaste perfectly complementing the chocolate sauce we made.
Serves six
50g Milk
50g Water
¼tsp Salt
1Tbsp Sugar
50g Butter
60g All Purpose Flour
2.5g Baking Powder
2 Eggs
1. Mix the milk, water, salt, sugar and butter into a saucepan. Bring to boil allowing the butter to melt.
2. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder.
3. Remove from heat and pour the flour into the boiling liquid and cook until a smooth dough forms and it pulls away easily from the sides of the pot.
4. Put the hot dough into a mixing bowl. Continue mixing while adding in 1 of the eggs to cool it down immediately.
5. Add in the second egg and continue mixing until the dough forms a smooth shiny consistency.
6. Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
7. Pour the mixture into a piping bag and pipe onto a tray lined with baking paper.
8. Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes until dark golden in colour.
9. Remove from oven and once cooled on a baking rake, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to two days.
10. Once chilled, poke a hole into each profiterole and pipe in ice-cream and serve with chocolate sauce.
Chocolate Sauce
Makes 1 ½ cups sauce
½C Water
⅓C Sugar
2Tbsp Corn Syrup
¼C Cocoa Powder
100g Dark Chocolate Chips
1. Bring water, sugar, corn syrup and cocoa powder to a boil in a small saucepan.
2. Remove from heat and quickly whisk in dark chocolate pieces.
3. Stir until smooth.
4. Strain through a fine mesh sieve.
5. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
6. Pour generously over profiteroles.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!!!

LODI — To reflect the numerous operations established under its vast umbrella during the past 61 years, Lodi Memorial Hospital is undergoing a name change of sorts to better represent the full scope of its services.
The hospital at 975 S. Fairmont Ave. will retain its name, but its 60 other operations — including 16 medical practices, home health agency, home medical equipment company, adult day care center, fitness center and numerous outpatient services — will now be known as Lodi Health.

This world is all about irony. When you have absolutely no identity, any identity becomes yours. America meant so much to so many, it was the dream come true, it was what every single country aspired to be. We all wanted to be American, we all secretly wished that our country would be America. And now... well… who wants to be American now? Don't look at me, I'm horrified!
To be honest, we went through hell. From afar we looked at everything that has happened since George W. Bush came to power. We went from being surprised, to being amazed, to being totally disgusted. We could not believe our eyes! What in God's name happened? We witnessed the absolute annihilation of everything we admired. And now, dear me, perhaps our own country, with its own ever lasting dictatorship, is better than America.
My own personal dictator is not as bad as George W. Bush. That man has reached a whole new level of dictatorship, as it is worldwide that he is fooling around, it is humanity that he is playing with. At least my own personal dictator limits himself to my own backyard.
I needed hope, desperately seeking some sort of liberation in my mind, the thought that perhaps somewhere else in this world people were happy to be alive, to exist, to be fully emancipated. Somewhere at least, beyond my own country, someone was living exactly what he or she was meant to live. Absolute freedom, the chance to say what one needs to say, without consequences, no consequences for speaking one's own mind! What a dream!
Known and very popular cialis coupon which gives all the chance to receive a discount for a preparation which has to be available and exactly cialis coupons has been found in the distant room of this big house about which wood-grouses in the houses tell.
I thought that this only existed in America… not anymore. I find I can speak my mind much more freely than Americans nowadays. My own dictator does not seem to mind that I spit on George W. Bush and the Republicans, otherwise I would be dead by now. This is how it works in my country. It seems, it is getting worse in America right now. Because no one is speaking anymore, but I speak, and I am still alive.
True, I have not said one word against my own government, I have not denounced anything about what is happening in my own country. I limited myself to speaking for Americans, against their new found dictatorship, against their psychopath leaders. I have not been shot yet, I guess my leaders hate Bush and Cheney as much as I do. For different reasons, no doubt, still, I have never felt that free in my whole life.
You see, in my country, we have always lived under threat from the government. We have always been starving. Unemployment is quickly reaching zero. The Global Warming you are so keen on talking about, we suffer the whole brunt of it. Within years my country will become inhabitable.
Where I live, it seems, every single policy and decision of the American government, seem to be another nail in our national coffin. We are about to die, we are in fact dying by the millions. Of course, none of you have ever been made aware of that. Your mass media are totally silent about that global genocide.
However, I do not wish to talk about this right now. I want to embrace the idea of freedom, of prosperity, of living full on, towards some sort of escape from this reality, the very idea of being an American, or at least, what it used to be.
My President does not like me. All the books and articles I have written, they have been banned in my own country. I have been put under house arrest. Every phone call I make, is recorded and listened to. Every website I visit, the President is made aware of. There are already many websites my country has banished from my computer. I get this screen instead telling me that this is inappropriate content. Search engines are no longer listing anything I was searching for. Soon my government will have severed every single link I still have to the American dream, to what it means or meant to be American, to be free!
And the more I study what is happening in America right now, the less I feel sorry for it. A revolution is more likely to happen in my own desperate country than in yours. An insurgency is just around the corner for us, for you, dear me, it might take you a few decades to see the point of it. And yet, it seems to me, it is getting worse in your own country than in mine. I guess you are not used to living under a tyranny, you are unable to recognize it when it hits you in the face. But it has, believe me, and yet, you remain oblivious to it. I guess it is part of your charm.
My brother died in the last civil war. My father was killed by the government way before the civil war. My mom was a teacher, she was the hope of my country, and yet, she was judged a danger to society, she was shot in front of me in our own house. This is probably the last thing I will be able to convey to you before my Internet connection is cut.
Be careful, because what I have witnessed in my own country, is happening to yours right now, you are inches away from that state of affair. You have already lost all your rights, the American Constitution is now meaningless, just like your Bill of Rights. Your President can now unitarily declare a state of emergency and martial law at any time, just like they always do over here. You have no experience with that kind of thing, we have become experts on how dictatorships develop. So please, be careful. We know what is going on in the US, we witness it all the time over here.
Elections have never been fair in my country, we all knew the outcome before anyone ever voted. The ones in power always remained in power no matter how they were hated by the people. I see you have the same problem in America. Our leaders are war mongers, they always want more power and wealth, they want what our neighbors have, so we have always been at war, it has been one genocide after another. I see you have the same problem in America.
Our mass media are so afraid of the government, none of them would venture to talk about anything else but the most trivial entertainment news. So we have heard a lot about Madonna, since this was judged unthreatening by our leaders. They had no idea. It is rare we hear anything about what is happening in your part of the country, and so anything we are allowed to put our hands on, becomes our whole philosophy of life, our sole reason to exist. That kind of thing is the product of revolutions. Just like the Beatles have been instrumental in the dismantlement of the U.S.S.R.
I love you! I love you all! Even if your country is about to be destroyed and civil war is about to be declared. You have inspired me no end! You showed me, you showed us all, that for a limited time at least, humanity could feel free. Not be free, that is of no consequence, but feel freedom. This is what your American dream is all about, the hope and faith that one day we will all be free, we will govern ourselves, we will have a true democracy by and for the people. It was such a great concept. But I guess, that if even you, my American friends, are unable to make it happen, us, in the rest of the world, have no chance at all.
The dream is all we have left. The dream of democracy and freedom. Oh dear, just to feel the wind on my face on a sunny sky, with a view showing me a wide area over the horizon… this is what freedom has been for me, since forever, nothing else. Perhaps this is what freedom is meant to be, or maybe this is what freedom is now reduced to.
Welcome to my world! The world of the rest of humanity, to which you have been blind for most of your life. Well, I feel somehow pleased that you will get a taste of what we have been going through for most of our lives. It ain't easy out there, you have to fight to survive, you have to become an idealist, and constantly fight for your rights to even exist, and be prepared to die at any time for what you stand for. Cowards survive, the others don't.
America has not known any of that in recent times, it has all changed now. You are no better than we are, you are exactly like us. You will learn to fight for your rights, for your existence, for what you believe in, just like we always did. You will become aware of all the tricks used by untrustworthy leaders, you will read between the lines in the media and instantly see through all the lies, and live though it, just like we did. So painful it is.
Just like us, you have no more rights. Just like us, you have no more democracy. Just like us, you have no more privacy. Just like us, you go to war and commit genocides against your will. Just like us, you have no more freedom. Have you ever wondered if this life was worth living? We always did wonder about that, we never found an answer.
Yes indeed, welcome to my world, welcome to what the world truly is and has always been, a world governed by psychopaths, tyrants and dictators, a world where there is no hope for humanity.
It was so nice for a while to cling to some sort of dream that somehow there was a land of liberty out there somewhere called America…

The South Park BMX track is hosting a fundraiser Sunday with the goal of raising $5,000. One attendee will ride away in style by guessing the number of jelly beans in a jar to win a new BMX bike.
"What better way to celebrate Earth Day than to promote a green sport," said park spokesman Saam Golgoon.
The track is giving away a 2011 Redline MX20, donated by High Alpine Sports. The winner will be announced during the fundraiser and will be given to the person with the closest guess on the number of jelly beans in the jar, per tradition. Each guess costs a suggested $5 donation and there is no limit on the number of guesses. The winner does not have to be present to win the bike. (Guesses may also be submitted on their Facebook page.)
Funds raised at the event will pay for fixing the drainage on the track and apply Soil Tak, a product that prevents erosion and preserves a superior racing surface throughout the season.
But the athletic challenge is the main focus of the fundraiser, Golgoon said. Participants will select one of four activities, cycling, walking, running or swimming, and the athlete will gather sponsors through friends, family and local businesses to raise money.

Mingo out of hospital
Published: Saturday, August 17, 2013 at 10:06 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 17, 2013 at 10:06 p.m.
CLEVELAND — Browns rookie linebacker Barkevious Mingo has been released from the hospital after bruising his lung in an exhibition game.
Mingo, a former LSU player, spent two nights in The Cleveland Clinic with the unusual injury. He was hurt on a hit in the first half of Thursday night's game against Detroit. Mingo played on special teams during the game. The Browns say he likely will be kept out of practice for the next week.
Mingo was the No. 6 overall pick in April's NFL draft. He has been playing with Cleveland's second-team defense, but the Browns are excited about the speed he brings from the outside and intend to use him as a pass-rushing specialist.

Energy Department Commissions a New Wind Farm Testing Site in Texas
DOE along with Sandia National Laboratories and Texas Tech University commissioned the DOE/Sandia Scaled Wind Farm Technology site in Lubbock, Texas, to test multiple wind turbines.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Sandia National Laboratories, and Texas Tech University on July 9 commissioned the DOE/Sandia Scaled Wind Farm Technology site at the Reese Technology Center in Lubbock, Texas. The site is the first of its kind to use multiple wind turbines to measure how wind turbines interact with one another in a wind farm.
Some estimates show that 10%–40% of wind energy production and revenue is lost due to complex wind plant interaction. The new Sandia site allows for rapid, cost-efficient testing and development of transformative wind energy technology, with specific emphasis on improving wind plant performance. The site's advanced testing and monitoring capabilities will help researchers evaluate how larger wind farms can become more productive.
Researchers have already begun planning the site's first research projects. The two primary research projects for the next year will be testing and evaluating Sandia's new National Rotor Testbed Project and collecting baseline data for turbine-turbine interaction that can be used by the international community to improve wind plant performance. The National Rotor Testbed Project will provide a public, open-source complete rotor design that the wind energy community can work on collaboratively to bring the best technology to market as rapidly and cost-efficiently as possible. See the Sandia National Laboratories press release.

Subacute combined degeneration is a disorder of the spine, brain, and nerves. It involves weakness, abnormal sensations, mental problems, and vision difficulties.
Subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord; SCD
Subacute combined degeneration is caused by a vitamin B12 deficiency. It mainly affects the spinal cord. But its effects on the brain and the peripheral (body) nerves are the reason for use of the term "combined." At first, the covering of the nerves (myelin sheath) is damaged. Later, the entire nerve cell is affected.
Doctors do not know exactly how a lack of vitamin B12 damages the nerves. It is possible the lack of this vitamin causes abnormal fatty acids to form around cells and nerves.
A person has a high risk of this condition if vitamin B12 cannot be absorbed from the intestine or if a person has:
Symptoms include:
These symptoms slowly get worse and are usually felt on both sides of the body.
Other symptoms include:
The health care provider will perform a physical exam. The exam usually shows muscle weakness and sensation problems on both sides of the body, especially in the legs. Knee jerk reflexes are often decreased. Muscles may develop spasticity. There may be reduced senses of touch, pain, and temperature.
Mental changes range from mild forgetfulness to severe dementia or psychosis. Severe dementia is uncommon, but in some cases, it is the first symptom of the disorder.
An eye exam may show damage to the optic nerve, a condition called optic neuritis. Signs of nerve inflammation may be seen during a retinal exam. There may also be abnormal pupil responses, decreased visual acuity, and other changes.
Blood teststhat may be ordered include:
Early treatment improves the chance of a good outcome.
Vitamin B12 is given, usually by injection into a muscle. Injections are often given once a day for a week, then weekly for about 1 month, and then monthly. Vitamin B12 supplements either by injection or high dose pills must continue throughout life to prevent symptoms from returning.
How well a person does depends on how long they had symptoms before receiving treatment. If treatment is received within a few weeks, complete recovery may be expected. If treatment iss delayed for longer than 1 or 2 months, full recovery may not be possible.
Untreated, the disorder results in progressive and irreversible damage to the nervous system.
Complications can include permanent, progressive loss of nerve and mental functions.
Call your health care provider if abnormal sensations, muscle weakness, or other symptoms of subacute combined degeneration develop. This is particularly important if you or a family member has had pernicious anemia or other risk factors.
Some vegetarian diets may be low in vitamin B12. Taking a supplement can prevent the disorder.

A 25-minute Bowie? Nice; but 'silent jam' notwithstanding, this is in most ways a 'Type I' performance, its side passages accenting or punctuating the (conventional) main jam rather than breaking new ground. You'll notice its length rather than its depth, I suspect.
The Simple jam is certainly memorable though: after doing weird things with his effects rig throughout the show, Trey just goes *off* with a crazed effects-laden solo statement during this standalone encore version. It's not particularly tasteful or cohesive, but there are other aesthetic virtues after all - sheer commitment and brazenness among them - and Ernesto Anastasio III possesses no shortage of those.

This activity is brought to you by Melissa & Doug, written by our Blog Ambassador Stacy Teet.
"How influential are you in helping your child develop a unique personal style?" – Stacy
Even at a very young age, my children responded to certain types of clothing more than others.
My oldest son (6) is very detail-oriented. He likes to look good and appreciates the style he gets from a fresh polo shirt, or the polish he feels when he puts on a clean tee and a button down. He doesn't care so much, at least not now anyway, about brand names or where the clothes come from . . . as long as they are unique and special, and come together into outfits only he could create.
My youngest son (3) is the total opposite. He dresses purely for comfort and would prefer if all clothing were made of fleece, knit, or jersey. Really. To him pants should never have buttons and sleeves should never be long. (Thank goodness we live in Texas!)
My daughter (5) does style in a very different way. She responds to color and pattern, choosing her clothing and outfits based on her mood and what makes her happy. Her current favorite combo is a chevron tunic, a camo top, and an old knit belt she wraps haphazardly around her neck (making her look like a modern-day Amelia Earhart–I love it!). I am fascinated with how she feels her way through life and constantly surprised by how this quiet girl finds ways to express herself proud and loud through art and fashion.
Watching them grow in to their own unique styles has even helped me define my style as a mom. They've all had a hand in teaching me the most important style lesson of all–dress in what makes you feel good and you will always look fabulous!
My daughter has mastered her closet, but I thought it would be fun to do a little designing with her and she where all that love of color and pattern could take us.
She put her thinking cap on and we got to work using Melissa & Doug's Fashion Design Activity Kit.
She didn't let me down!
We cut some plain paper in half and grabbed a box of colored pencils, and the ideas just kept coming.
