This is an excerpt from EERE Network News, a weekly electronic newsletter.

DOE Requests $2.4 Billion for Renewable Energy, Efficiency in FY 2011
President Barack Obama emphasized the importance of the clean energy economy during his State of the Union address on January 27.
President Barack Obama unveiled on February 1 a $28.4 billion budget request for DOE for fiscal year (FY) 2011, including $2.36 billion for the DOE Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE). The proposed budget aims to reduce unnecessary energy use, boost renewable energy sources, and strengthen clean energy research as the United States moves toward a clean energy economy. The budget request for EERE represents a 5% increase over FY 2010, not counting funds provided through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
The President's budget includes substantial increases for many EERE programs, including a 53% increase for wind energy, a 43% increase for the Weatherization and Intergovernmental program, a 32% increase for the Federal Energy Management Program, a 25% increase for geothermal energy, and a 22% increase for solar energy. The proposed budget also includes $57.5 million for facilities and infrastructure at DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory, including the completion of the Energy Systems Integration Facility. It also proposes $50 million for a new program called Regaining our Energy Science and Engineering Edge (Re-Energyse), an educational effort designed to guide students and workers to pursue careers in science, engineering, and entrepreneurship related to clean energy. In addition, the budget asks for a 43% increase in the funding for program direction and calls for nearly doubling the amount spent for program support. The President's budget typically represents a starting point for the Congressional appropriation process. See the DOE press release and text pages 25-31 (PDF pages 30-36) of the DOE Budget Highlights (PDF 4.2 MB) on the DOE budget and performance Web page. Download Adobe Reader.
In addition to the funding for EERE, the proposed DOE budget includes $500 million to support an estimated $3-5 billion in loan guarantees for renewable energy and energy efficiency projects, as well as $10 million to support the continued administration of the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program. The budget includes $35 million for clean energy transmission and reliability, $39.3 million for Smart Grid research and development, and $40 million for energy storage on the electrical grid. It also includes $300 million for the Advanced Research Project Agency–Energy (ARPA-E), for transformational energy research that industry by itself cannot and will not support. ARPA-E received $15 million in initial DOE funding in FY 2009 as well as $400 million in Recovery Act funds. The budget also requests an additional $140 million for the existing Energy Frontier Research Centers program, including two new centers, and $107 million for Energy Innovation Hubs. DOE will continue funding the three Energy Innovation Hubs introduced in FY 2010: fuels produced directly from sunlight; improving energy efficient building systems design; and creating a virtual model of an operating nuclear reactor. For FY 2011, DOE is proposing a new hub dedicated to batteries and energy storage. See text pages 2-3, 5-8, 18, 20-24, 32-34, and 53-55 (PDF pages 7-8, 10-13, 23, 25-29, 37-39, and 58-60) of the DOE Budget Highlights document.

06 Nov 2007 - REVIEW
Recorded in six days and rushed out – first on the 'net and now as an album release proper – Neil Young's 32nd album is without a doubt his most controversial. It certainly doesn't get any more direct than 'Let's Impeach The President' ("for lyin' and misleading his country to war"), the key track here and the one that's drawn him the most flak from predictable quarters in the US.

If you were to look up the meaning of the word weld in the Oxford English Dictionary you'd find: *Weld v. unite (pieces of esp. heated metal etc.) into solid mass by hammering or pressure*. There's more of course, but that basically wraps it up. It also wraps up Neil Young ... Crazy Horses' new double live album. A merciless wall of noise, Weld is all about guitars. Very loud guitars. It's also about chaos, albeit chaos in perfect motion, chaos in full flights, majestic, marauding - Weld in chaos, in control.

About the Book
At once hilarious and inspiring, CookFight is a one-of-a-kind cookbook that that pits the strategies and recipes of popular New York Times food reporters Julia Moskin and Kim Severson against each other as they take on the challenges today's home cook faces both in and out of the kitchen. An epic battle for kitchen dominance, CookFight features two well-seasoned cooks, 12 tough culinary challenges, and 125 mouth-watering recipes, plus a foreword by Frank Bruni, former chief restaurant critic of the New York Times. Fans of Mark Bittman, Melissa Clark, Ruth Reichl, and Dorie Greenspan, as well as top-rated cooking shows like Top Chef, Top Chef Masters, Iron Chef, and Hell's Kitchen, will be riveted by every round of this intense, no-punches-pulled CookFight until the final (dinner) bell!
Food obsessives.
Work wives.
New York Times writers Julia Moskin and Kim Severson were all of the former, until legendary Times restaurant critic Frank Bruni challenged them to go head-to-head in a culinary duel—a battle for dinner dominance that turned them into kitchen combatants. Armed with only $50 each, Bruni dared them to prepare a full meal for six, a showdown which he would judge for the newspaper.The thrill of battle proved too exhilarating to resist, and that initial clash turned into a yearlong kitchen war as Julia and Kim faced off to tackle the most vexing kitchen predicaments, from how best to console friends in need through old-fashioned home cooking to conjuring kids' food that keeps both parents and children happy at a party.
CookFight is the delicious result of their brinksmanship, a chronicle of their skirmishes over the course of twelve months and a look at how two very different people—best friends from wildly divergent backgrounds—approach the kitchen. In each heartfelt and hilarious chapter, Kim and Julia confront a new "challenge"—those quandaries all home cooks deliberate, from how to strategize a dinner party (the Fancy Food Challenge) to how to eat more seasonally and locally (the Farmer's Market Challenge). Every recipe, from Julia's Caramelized Corn with Mint to Kim's Carnitas, is a delectable testament to their creativity and savvy—only the reader will be able to call the winner.

About the Book
"The most credible and frightening of all the vampire books of the past decade."
—San Francisco Chronicle
"Bram Stoker meets Stephen King meets Michael Crichton. It just doesn't get much better than this."
—Nelson DeMille
The stunning New York Times bestselling vampire saga that author Dan Simmons (Drood, The Terror) calls, "an unholy spawn of I Am Legend out of 'Salem's Lot," concludes with The Night Eternal. The magnificent, if monstrously warped brainchild of cinematic horror master Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth, Hellboy) and Chuck Hogan—whose novel Prince of Thieves, was praised as, "one of the 10 best books of the year" by Stephen King—The Night Eternal begins where The Strain and The Fall left off: with the last remnants of humankind enslaved by the vampire masters in a world forever shrouded by nuclear winter. Still, a small band of the living fights on in the shadows, in the final book of the ingenious dark fantasy trilogy that Newsweek says is, "good enough to make us break that vow to swear off vampire stories."
It's been two years since the vampiric virus was unleashed in The Strain and the entire world now lies on the brink of annihilation. There has been a mass extermination of humans orchestrated by the Master—an ancient vampire possessed of unparalleled powers. The future of humankind lies in the hands of a ragtag band of freedom fighters—Dr. Eph Goodweather, Dr. Nora Martinez, Vasiliy Fet, and Mr. Quinlan, the half-breed offspring of the Master who is bent on revenge. It's their job to overturn this devastating new world order. But good and evil are malleable terms now, and the Master is most skilled at preying on the weaknesses of humans.
Now, at this critical hour, there is evidence of a traitor in their midst. . . And only one man holds the answer to the Master's demise, but is he one who can be trusted with the fate of the world? And who among them will pay the ultimate sacrifice—so that others may be saved?

Strong rumours certain bookies have stopped taking bets on him becoming manager or director of football at Newcastle.
Can't see that happening somehow, Redknapp's wife wears the trousers and she likes living down south.Plus old baggy jowels would never get given an open chequebook by Newcastle United so that he could line his own pockets off dodgy transfer dealings like he's done at other football clubs.I hope the Bookies rake it in off people's stupidity!
Would love to see Harry manage Newcastle, he is one off the best managers in the PL. But like the old saying goes if its not broke don't fix it. Mr Pardew is doing a great job atm, and I would like to see how things go next season before we even think to consider replacing him

Virginia's Leader in SOL Science and Social Studies Practice and Review for Elementary and Middle School
If you are looking for help preparing yourself, your students, or your children for the Virginia Standards of Learning tests in elementary or middle school Social Studies and Science, you have come to the right place. Request a trial password here if you are visiting this site for the first time.
Solpass activities are intended to supplement, not replace, solid classroom instruction by providing review of the specific concepts and information that the students are likely to encounter on the SOL end-of-year test. By making test preparation easy and convenient, we hope to encourage excellent classroom instruction, which need not be sacrificed for narrowly focused "teaching to the test".
We hope you like our new look!
All grades and subjects will soon have a new look and new content. All social studies content is based on the new VDOE standards which were tested for the first time in 2011.
We hope you like our new design and welcome your comments .
Social Studies content revised in 2011, Science in 2012
The revised Social Studies standards, adopted by the Virginia Board of Education in 2008, were tested beginning in the 2010-1011 school year. Our revamped website has been updated to include this new content.
New science standards adopted by VDOE in 2011 began implementation and testing in 2012-2013. SOLpass content has been revised to reflect the content changes, which, in general, were minor.

EAGLE COUNTY, Colorado - The desire to seek public office has been bubbling for a while now inside Dale Nelson. This is the year that urge bubbled to the surface.
Nelson thought about running for Eagle County commissioner in 2008, out of anger about the way he believed the county was being run.
"That's not the place to come from, though," he said.
This year, Nelson, an unaffiliated voter, is one of three candidates seeking to replace District 1 commissioner Peter Runyon, who can't run for office again due to term limit restrictions.
Nelson's running as an independent because that's the way he's voted for nearly a dozen years.
"I couldn't in good conscience join a party to do this," he said. Besides, he added, there are thousands of unaffiliated voters in the county. Circulating the petitions to get his name on the ballot was even more encouraging.
"I talked to people who are as far on the left or the right as you can get, and they signed," he said. "They told me, 'We can work with you.'"
But running as an independent has its disadvantages, too, particularly when it comes to organization and fund-raising.
So Nelson is knocking on as many doors as he can this fall. "And I always carry lots of business cards," he said.
Focus on the economy
While Nelson is happy to talk about subjects small and large, the economy is the overriding reason he joined the race, and he talks at length about what county government should be doing to get cash and jobs flowing again.
Part of Nelson's answer is cutting back on county regulations that require worker housing for new developments. Nelson also believes the county should look into actively recruiting companies to relocate here.
"If we can bring in a few companies a year that employ 10 or 15 people... If that's a possibility, shouldn't we approach it?" he said.
New blood for the economy could also cut down on the number of homes for sale in the valley, Nelson said. That, in turn, will help property values. And that's the way the county's policies should work, he said.
"Boards often make decisions based on property values," he said. "I'd prefer to ask how (a policy or project) will affect the community. If that happens, property values will fall into place.
Better property values ultimately mean more money in the county's general fund, and whoever is elected this fall will have to deal with a 2014 budget that's expected to have less money in the county's accounts. Nelson said that budget will be a tough one to draft.
"The county's done a reasonable job, but belts will have to tighten again," Nelson said. Nelson said he'd hate to see any more layoffs, but added that balancing the budget may require either layoffs or pay cuts - something that should include the county commissioners.
"I think it makes more sense to keep more people on at lower amounts," he said. And, Nelson added, the county may have to dip into its reserves in order to maintain services.
A big focus on the economy has to include tourism, of course, and Nelson said the county has a role to play.
Nelson said Fruita has trailheads with campgrounds to access mountain biking terrain there. The county should work with the town of Eagle to provide similar amenities - and work with other communities to help build tourism elsewhere, he said.
"The county can work on infrastructure, and let businesses do the rest," he said.
Nelson said the county ought to be as pro-business as the town of Vail has been over the past several years. That includes supporting an international terminal at the county airport, and looking at proposals with a "small business" mindset, he said.
But, Nelson added, not every business will succeed, and not every proposal is worthy of support.
"Development has to stand on its own merit," he said. "You need to look at all aspects of an issue, then make the best decision for the county."
What about open space?
A decade after voters narrowly approved a new property tax to establish a dedicated fund for open space, the issue has become part of this year's campaign. Nelson is among the critics of the program.
"I voted for the program," Nelson said, before adding that he'd prefer to see the funds used more for access and recreation.
"The Eagle River Preserve was sold to us as another Ford Park," he said. "But the list of things you can't do there is longer than the list of what you can do."
While it's too late to change the contract governing use of the land, Nelson said it should have included space for athletic fields and other recreational uses.
Nelson added that while he's in favor of recent purchases of property with river access, he believes the county paid too much for the property.
Ultimately, he said, he believes the program has been mismanaged.
"We need to hire people to manage it properly," he said. "If I continue to see mismanagement (as commissioner), that may be a reason to vote again."

Style Spotlight: Wendy Costa!
As you may be aware, Sock Dreams all started with one woman and her dream of being self-employed at her own sock company. Over the years her dream has grown into the company that we know and love today, and has provided us with opportunities to support other women and independent entrepreneurs, which we find very rewarding. The artist we'd like to draw your attention to today has actually been at it longer than we have: Wendy Costa has been producing her home and accessories line, featuring her own paintings and poetry since 1987, though she just started printing socks back in 2010. We absolutely adore her iconic art style, so of course we jumped at the chance to carry some of her styles!
Working out of a historic church in upstate New York, Wendy's studio prints all of their fabric by hand, in small batches. All of their materials are sourced within the USA, which is true of our own house brands, and something that is very important to us!
~Deborah Grey Printed Knee Highs~
Our current selection features four styles, which we consider prime examples of the kind of motifs Wendy Costa is known and loved for. The Deborah Grey and Junebug Printed Knee Highs have an off-beat Rococo vibe, featuring classic vertical stripes with a deliberately hand-drawn aesthetic, and fanciful ornamentation which pairs nicely with heels or flats. We love the way these play off of vintage fashion, but have a definite contemporary edge.
Other prominent themes in Wendy's work include food, vintage appliances, animals and women. Her Cat and Music Crews (shown in the first photoset) depict one cat serenading another on the concertina, in a tiled and wallpapered setting which reminds us of a cafe in 1950's France. Of course, we couldn't bring in Wendy Costa socks without at least one design featuring one of her women! Willow Knee Highs (pictured below) feature a sassy redhead who peeks out from your ankles amidst a swirl of leaves, flowers, and plenty of vivid color!
From the origins of the socks themselves, to the imagery which makes them so recognizable, Wendy Costa's designs are right up our alley! We're very happy to share our dream of beautiful, expressive socks with this talented artist, and can't wait to see what she creates in the future!

Return to Atlas Scoops!
Well dreamers, it's been nearly a year since we first wrote about Atlas Scoops, the gelato cart which sprung up in our shop's own backyard, which means that yet another season of gelato is here! We happen to think that this is a very good photo op, and our models seem to enjoy doing a bit of… er…. "prop management" as our photographic subject slowly melts in the sun.
Last year we took our Dessert Stripes over to enjoy "à la mode", but this year we wanted to do something a little different, so we've brought you our favorite sock/flavor combinations! Atlas Scoops has some delightful flavors, made by Staccato Gelato, and while some of them are a little out-of-the-ordinary, none of them are so sophisticated that a kid can't enjoy them!
Dreamer Rae picked her socks for this shoot based on the flavor she wanted to model – peanut butter fudge! We felt that the N Stripes in Coffee and Mocha did a great job of representing this flavor combination, with a lighter, warmer brown for the peanut butter, and a nice dark chocolate brown for the generous swirl of fudge!
Dreamer Sarah wore our O Rayons in rust to evoke the concept of caramel, as she enjoyed her salted caramel gelato. The gelato itself is off-white, like most of the flavors, because Staccato Gelato uses locally sourced, quality ingredients which don't include caramel coloring, but we thought the socks could do the talking, as it were.
We felt that the Ruffle Striped OTKs in chocolate, hemp and cream were a fairly perfect representative for the most classic of flavors – chocolate and vanilla! Toby the dog enjoyed sniffing every inch of the gelato-scented yard before laying down for a nap in the shade. We're so glad our shop's backyard has been turned into one of the best outdoor hangout spots in Sellwood!
One of Atlas Scoop's more unusual flavors is lavender honey, and the M Stripes in lilac and natural really convey that flavor, via color. Most of us think of lavender as a scent or color before we consider it a flavor, but we think its aromatic herbaceousness is perfectly refreshing!
As Dreamer Brenna recently reminded us, there are lots of great reasons to visit the sweet little neighborhood of Sellwood, and we're so glad that one more reason has taken up residence in our own back yard! We strive to make the sock shopping experience a fun one, but there's no reason you shouldn't reward yourself with a little gelato when you're done!

Sock and Roll!
There are several gifted musicians residing among the many Dreamers here at Sock Dreams. So when we were told that our summer ad for Bust Magazine should have a musical theme, we had just the right people for the job. We also had plenty of band equipment to work with.
Best of all, we had three varieties of Dream Stockings that rock like no others.
Nothing screams punk sock quite like our Super Stripes. At 36 inches long these stripey bad boys can be worn stretched up the thigh or scrunched over your boots. And with 15 different color varieties you can wear a different pair for each blazing guitar solo.
Our Vertically Inclined Stockings are perfect for conveying both class and sass. With eye-catching details these socks are as bold as your bass moves. The design of these cotton stockings is breathable enough to keep you cool. So you wont have to fret, while working the frets.
Because they are made of nylon, the N Stripes do a great job of staying in place. We love that, because when you are singing your heart out, you've got no time to stop and pull up your socks. These beauties come in array of vivid colors and have the stay-up power to keep you rocking all night long.
Even if you don't have a killer band, these three sock varieties will have you looking like a rock star. Well, at least a sock star!

A Host of New Stickers!
Recently we debuted our newest line of Dreamer Socks: Extraordinarily Longer Elemental Stripes. We were so inspired by the beautiful combinations that we made a whole host of stickers to match! Each is surrounded by the elements they represent, and feature their Alchemical symbol on their arm.
Cool and rich, Terra represents the element of Earth. These socks are your dependable favourites, a solid foundation to build an outfit.
Zephyr is fresh and light as a feather. The element of Air is uplifting, and brightens your whole look.
Inferno lights the element of Fire. These socks are fierce and powerful, but also warm and comforting.
The element of Water can be both liquid and solid, ocean and Glacier. This palette is dark and dreamy, and will look good under casual shorts or a froufy skirt.
Unlike the other four elements, the fifth element, Aether or Spirit, is not terrestrial in origin, but exists beyond our atmosphere. Alchemists and early scientists used it to explain all the spaces in-between; it was said that light traveled through it, and that gravity was caused by it. A lot of symbols have been used to represent Aether over the years, so we chose the one we thought fit best with the theme. It should be noted that, in Alchemy, this is also the symbol for salt.
Soon we will have regular Extraorindary Thigh High versions of these five colours, but for now we hope you enjoy these super long beauties! If you would like to receive a free Elemental sticker, please simply request one in your Order Notes field. Make sure to let us know which you want, or if you'd like for us to choose for you!
Oh, wait, we have one more! It's not an Element like the others, but rather the wielder of one element in particular. Our Summer Sticker is this delightful Sea Witch wearing our Dreamy Knees in Seaside. She's friendly, we swear, unless you're throwing your litter into the ocean or poaching her whales, in which case you'd better watch out when travelling near large bodies of water…

Performance Tuners & Programmers
Cars and trucks can be greatly tuned today. All vehicles come with a special computer chip that controls your engine's output, particularly in the area of fuel delivery. You can add extra horsepower and torque including wheel upsizing, fuel curves, air/fuel ratio, gear selectors and shift points. From street racing chip sets through towing performance chips for additional horsepower and torque increase. There are performance programmers for most fuel injected engines including import and domestic cars turbocharged, supercharged, Hemi, Cummins and Diesel cars and trucks. Performance computer chips for cars by well-known manufacturers including Super Chips, Bully Dog, and Edge are widely spread and available for everyone. Dealers of car accessories offer a great variety of performance chips, programmers and modules to boost your ride's performance at a fraction of the cost of a major engine upgrade.
There are lots of argues for and against using car performance chips and programmers. Some may claim that implementing of car programmer may influence not only performance of the ride but will also increase the amount of fuel your car will use. But the most pleasant thing is that you can choose between fuel economy and total boost level. Depending on the aftermarket improvements made to your vehicle, your car should run more efficiently and save you fuel, not consume up additional resources.
With a car performance chip, your vehicle realizes a much more efficient delivery of fuel to your engine at specified times in the course of driving. Replacement vehicle performance chips by Superchips or Edge will also help your car run more efficiently, resulting in slight increases in fuel economy. The main shortage of such technology is that with a engine performance chip you must remove and replace the original chip, which involves removing of your car's dash to access the chip. Changing your car's chip is very cost-effective as it is far less expensive than upgrading your car engine. And the best thing is it provides more benefits and is very gainful for your car in the long run. With the development in technology, everyone can enhance the performance of your car even without anyone's help.
With a power programmer the same results are gained as with a performance chip for a car, but in a more easy way. No tools are required to use a performance programmer and you can return your car to its OEM power specifications at any time. These tuners are hand-held and designed to work for most of the modern cars and trucks, providing more levels of tuning than car computer chip replacements. With a power programmer, you simply plug the programmer into your under dash diagnosis plug, answer a series of Yes/No questions, and the programmer quickly and easily reorganize your engine.
Car performance chip will help your vehicle realize a much more efficient delivery of fuel to your engine at specified times in the course of driving. A super chip or power programmer can do wonders for your vehicle, making it a true modern day muscle car. You can increase the performance of your car or pickup truck without pricey and time consuming aftermarket parts.
Different automobiles require different mechanisms to increase horsepower and fuel economy and therefore the manufacturers of these super chips provide custom made chips for each car. A properly programmed and optimized computer chip will boost your engine's response in specific conditions, thereby increasing power and torque and consequently enhancing gas mileage or MPG. Increasing the fuel flow can actually help the vehicle to run more efficiently, contrary to what one might think. When there is more fuel injected into the cylinder on acceleration, there is less "turbo lag." Turbo lag is the time before the turbocharger builds pressure. Lag is between when you hit the accelerator and when the turbo spools up and corrects the air/fuel ratio. If you are looking for an extremely simple and highly cost-effective procedure to tune up your vehicle, then engine performance chip are what you need. These chips will allow you to tailor your car engine's capabilities according to your driving needs.

- Super Bowl 50: Few cities get shot to host big game
SANTA CLARA -- Roger Craig was 24 years old and in his second NFL season the only time a Super Bowl has been played in the Bay Area. Before Craig took the field at Stanford Stadium that day, veteran linebacker Jack "Hacksaw" Reynolds pulled him aside and offered some advice.
"I remember he told me, 'Play every play like is going to be your last. You don't know if you're ever going to be back to the Super Bowl. So you have to take advantage of every opportunity that's given to you," Craig recalled Tuesday.
While the running back scored three touchdowns in that game and went on to play in two more Super Bowls during his 49ers career, the rest of Northern California has been waiting since Jan. 20, 1985, for the opportunity to come around again.
That's why the NFL's announcement Tuesday that Santa Clara will play host to Super Bowl L so delighted Craig and other members of the 49ers dynasty. They know exactly what it means that the NFL circus is coming to town in 2016.
"I'm thrilled," said former Pro Bowl tight end Brent Jones. "And you talk about the perfect culmination. For a new stadium to be awarded Super Bowl L in the greatest area in the country is spectacular."
Jones, 50, is an ideal local ambassador. He was born in Santa Clara, attended Leland High in San Jose and De La Salle High in Concord before starring at Santa Clara University. With the 49ers, he won three Super Bowls. And on Thursday, he will be inducted into the Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame.
So he is happy to roll out the welcome mat on behalf of Silicon Valley.
"First and foremost, there is great civic pride to be able to show off your city, or cities," Jones said. "We're probably going to have a couple of weeks' worth of excitement here in the Bay Area. A lot of great commerce. I'm sure some great parties. A lot of tourists.
"And hopefully the 49ers will be playing a home game. How great would that be?"
Craig, who made four Pro Bowls, now works as the vice president of business development for the TIBCO Software company. He was happy to see the 49ers' bid ace out Miami, the other top contender for Super Bowl L.
"I know people said Miami had more (Super Bowl) hosting experience but, please, why wouldn't people want to come to the Bay Area? It's one of the most beautiful places in the country," Craig said.
As for the current 49ers, it's safe to say their reaction was more restrained. Even after practicing Tuesday in the shadow of the Santa Clara construction site, home of the $1.2 billion new stadium, players kept their enthusiasm in check.
"It's not a big deal right now," fullback Bruce Miller said. "We're focused on this season and getting to this year's Super Bowl. It's nice. It's going to be exciting for the community. But right now we're focused on this year."
Jones, though, was already getting prepared. Even though the big game is two years away, he was bracing for the onslaught of tickets request.
"It probably won't be very long before that starts," he said with a laugh. "But they're going to have to get in line behind me."

Golden Globes 2014: Fashion Highlights of the Night
Black-and-white dresses were a trend at the 71st Golden Globe Awards, with Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts and other actresses favoring the look. Lawrence, who took home the award for best supporting actress for her role in "American Hustle," chose a couture Christian Dior strapless ball gown.
Roberts wore a Dolce & Gabbana dress with a white button-down shirt and sparkly belt. "Game of Thrones" actress Emilia Clarke wore a custom Proenza Schouler gown, while "Girls" star Allison Williams chose an Alexander McQueen dress with a striped bodice. Laura Carmichael of "Downton Abbey" chose a strapless Viktor & Rolf dress, while "Girls" actress Zosia Mamet chose a floral embroidered fall 2013 Reem Acra dress. "Nashville" actress Hayden Panettiere wore a halter gown from Tom Ford.
Baby-Bump Style
Pregnant star Kerry Washington wore Balenciaga, while Olivia Wilde looked glamorous in a figure-hugging Gucci Première green beaded gown. Drew Barrymore showed off her baby bump in a delicate floral spring 2014 Monique Lhuillier dress.
A Fashion Risk That Paid Off
In one of the braver style moments of the evening, Emma Watson wore a Christian Dior coral dress that opened up in the back to reveal pants underneath. From the front it looked ordinary, but it was anything but. Watson didn't go for the easy black dress or something that was merely pretty, and it worked. On another person, this ensemble might appear gauche or too revealing, but Watson has the poise, confidence and youth to pull it off.
Crayola Colors
Bright, singular color gowns were also on display, with "Girls" actress Lena Dunham striking a pose in a canary yellow Zac Posen gown. Reese Witherspoon's Calvin Klein dress balanced a simple silhouette with a vivid shade of green. Caitlin FitzGerald of "Masters of Sex" wore a baby blue spring 2014 Emilia Wickstead dress with an elegant hemline. "12 Years a Slave" actress Lupita Nyong'o chose a striking orange-red spring 2014 Ralph Lauren dress that was one of the evening's fashion highlights.

The following is the recommended practice for event naming:
- Name your events in lower case:
Separate multiple words with dashes (-), not underscores:
If you wish to namespace events, use a period (.):
lsb.some-thing-happed debian.some-other-thing
System-level namespacing will use a forward slash (/):
startup/failed ~scott/personal-event
- Use arguments for information that is normally used to filter the event. First argument should be the most related to the event:
network-device-added eth0 path-mounted /usr hda1
- Use environment variables for incidental information, to save the job having to look it up:
network-device-added eth0 IF_NAME=eth0 IF_ADDR=...
Environment variables are all capitals, words separated by underscores (_) and usually share a common prefix.
- Document your event in a manpage. Give the arguments and environment, and describe when the event is issued and what it means.

Former Press Secretary: Obama Admin. Tried to Conceal Drone Strikes on Americans

Top White House official comes clean about covert drone strikes
In recent weeks, controversy has been boiling over the targeted
killings of American citizens with drones
. While most would agree that Americans who join hostile overseas terrorist groups like al Qaeda may be difficult to capture and may necessitate strikes with deadly force, most also take issue with the way the administration handled the information.
At a time when drones are
deployed over U.S. airspace
to "monitor the homeland" and discussions of arming such drones are ongoing, the issue is a sensitive one for Americans who fear what could happen under a system with such a lack of transparency.
I. Down the Rabbit Hole
Robert Gibbs, a former White House press secretary who recently joined MSNBC -- a network owned by Microsoft Corp. (
), Comcast Corp. (
) and General Electric Comp. (
) -- gave an exclusive interview with his new employer on the politics talk segment "Up".
In the interview clips are played in which he and the new press secretary -- Jay Carney -- are shown dodging questions about targeted drone killings. In the interview, he confirms, "When I went through the process of becoming press secretary, one of the things, one of the first things they told me was, 'You're not even to acknowledge the drone program. You're not even to discuss that it exists.'"
When reporters started asking questions about drones, Mr. Gibbs recalls, "I realized I'm not supposed to talk about it."
The case is drawing fictional comparisons, such as "The Wizard of Oz" (in which a normal man hides behind an animated curtain to hide his lack of magic powers) or "Alice in Wonderland" (due to questions of how many layers of obfuscation are wrapping the reality of the covert actions -- i.e. how far down the rabbit hole, we must go to find the truth).

Mr. Gibbs used
The Wizard of Oz
analogy in his own interview. The former official, who says he never talked to President Obama about the issue, complains that "when [drone strikes on Americans are] obviously happening, undermines people's confidence overall in the decisions that their government makes."
II. Drone Medal Awarded, Brennan Nomination Jeopardized
The White House has
finally agreed to release some documents
to the Senate and House, but much about the reportedly highly codified death strikes program is unknown. Reportedly the only people with fully details are the Obama administration and high ranking military and intelligence officials.

use of drones overseas
exploded in recent years
. The autonomous
surveillance-cum-killing machines
offer a way to project U.S. hegemony without risking the lives of servicemen. Reportedly
one in three U.S. warplanes
is today a drone.
The Pentagon recently
announced a new medal of honor
-- the Distinguished Warfare Medal -- for drone operators and cyberwarfare experts. The medal ranks above the prestigious Purple Heart (which is awarded to servicemen wounded or killed in battle), raising criticism. Critics dub the award "the Geek's Cross".
The controversy over drone killings of American citizens and the secrecy surrounding the administrations' rules on the topic has impacted the nomination of John Brennan to become director of the
U.S. Central Intelligence Agency
John Brennan helped mastermind the drone killings. [Image Source: Reuters]
John Brennan has also been criticized for supporting "enhanced interrogation" (torture), warrantless wiretaps, and the Iraq invasion/war. Much of these policies were his work during his time with the previous Bush Administration.
has a
nice piece
on these issues.
Sen. Rand Paul
(R-Tenn.) says the strikes raise serious Constitutional issues, due to the administration's secrecy and ambiguous language. He says unless he gets answers he plans to do "whatever it takes" to block Mr. Brennan's nomination.
That in turn, could create chaos in U.S. intelligence ranks and compromise America's ability to monitor enemies and defend itself overseas.

The slippery rabbit hole slope???
Some interesting thoughts on how problemattic this can become. HSBC bank is accused of laundering money for Al Qaeda, does this mean that we can target their overseas operation with a drone? I personally would approve that! Next up, a Palestinian/Afghan/Iraqi American returns home to visit family. Unbeknownst, one of the family members belongs to a terrorist organization.... KABLAMO!!! death from above. The question remains how do you determine an enemy combatant. There are no official documents completed by these people of their joining a "Terrorist organization". Besides the list of these organizations is pretty expansive
For all you know you may be working with one of these organization through a legitimate contract or related party contract. But one day you have to go to the client on business and you too could meet a firey death.
Seems to me that before you can be ajudged an enemy combatant and targeted some sort of court should hear the government's case and even extend to the citizen a chance have representation. If the allegations are correct and the preponderance of the evidence shows that you are allied to valid terror organization.. then yes fire away. But i think we need to trim down the list of executable terror organization... And honestly, can we stop calling these people terrorist and terror organizations. It just encourages them... how about if we call them "Demonstrators involving Chaos and Killings" (D.I.C.Ks)

A good friend, brother, father, and uncle left us on the morning of September 26. Junior Bush, as he was known to friends, passed from this life into the next. Bill was born November 24, 1925 in Maricopa, CA and was raised locally. He was one of the best oilfield truck drivers ever and was a master at tailboarding heavy loads onto his truck. Bill also could move extremely heavy loads, which cranes would have difficulty with, with a super-heavy duty A-frame, and he did those jobs safely. Bill and his wife, Wanda, operated the Sunset Antiques for many years after he retired from driving truck. Together they enjoyed going to swap meets all over central and southern California. Bill was a magician at woodworking and applied his magic to restoring antique pieces of furniture. He was a very kind, generous and gentle person. We will say our "good byes" at a graveside service on Tuesday, October 2, 2012, at Greenlawn Cemetery, Panorama Drive and River Boulevard, in Bakersfield. The service will be at 1100 am.

Share your experiences with the 2011 Greenfield Glide below Back to event details page.
There is no race in Western PA that compares to this one! The course is a bit of a challenge, but it is nice to run on cinder trails instead of pounding the pavement. T-shirts are really cool - they keep the same design but the change the colors every year. And, of course, there is the post-race cook out.
Anthony L. Boerio
I've always heard good things about this one, but how challenging is challenging? I'm a somewhat new but definitely slow runner (13-15 min. pace/mile) and have never run on trails. Any other feedback from people who have run it before? And is the 5K race clearly marked, or would a back of the pack runner like me be alone and lost in the woods?!
I run this course a few times a week as I live about 400 yards from the trail. This might be my favorite 5k of the summer, mostly because of the trails in the woods and the after-party. It is not very challenging in my opinion, but the last 1/2 mile is predominantly uphill - but the first 2 miles are downhill!! So just the very end is the real challenging part. Awesome T-shirts, awesome trails, awesome race - I can't wait!
You will love it! And lost, no, I think there is a misconception with the word "trail". I think the problem is the English language does not have enough words for "trail". For example, have you ever been on the Montour Trail? It is one of those rails-to-trails projects: totally flat, mostly cinder, tho some parts are paved. I DO NOT consider an asphalt walkway/bikeway a "trail", yet it is still called that. As for Trail Runners, those are the people who go off into the dep woods and run through creeks, over logs, and get all muddy.
What we have in Schenley Park are fairly wide, mostly cinder - a few grassy/dirt areas - trails that, no, you won't get lost on because there is sort of only one trail around the upper part of the park. Lower Schenley has an extra trail that loops around Panther Hollow Lake. This is really a fun time, a must race for everyone!!!

Very nice run through schenley park. Challenging for a 5k. Will definitely do again.
It was really nice track to run and lots of Raffles and prizes being distributed after the race.I participated in Pittsburgh 5K as well, but this one was much more interesting and better without a doubt. I don't understand one thing that almost everyone performed really good. A lot of them had extraordinary performance. Do many people participating in this run are professional athletes or marathon runners? The average performance was much better than that in Pittsburgh 5K run this time. That is a big surprise to me since this is little bit more challenging that Pittsburgh 5k as we have up-hill and down-hill track while Pittsburgh 5K was almost flat.
The 2011 Greenfield Glide was my first 5K! I was slightly nervous, but I could not have picked a better race as my first. it was well organized, everyone was friendly and the trail rocked! i can't wait to do it next year.
I run atleast one race a month and I loved this course. If was my first year running it and probably my favorite. I love how it is not on the normal flat montour trail and road. I definelty would agree and just say a dirt road as opposed to trail. It is nice and wide for all to fit. It was a lil challenge but whats a race without it, Mostly downhill with a nice up hill finish.
There seemed
This was my first time running the Greenfield Glide, and I loved the course. I'd say it is one of the best runs in Pittsburgh. The race organizers were really friendly, and there was a good selection of beverage and snack after the race. The only drawback was that the race packet and t-shirt were handed out before the start of race and I didn't have anywhere to put mine (one of the participants even ran holding his bag). Maybe next year we can pick them up afterward.
I enjoy the Greenfield Glide and I've run the race off and on since 1989. It is a challenging course and I do think that it tends to attract a fitter class of runners as one participant observed. And it is deceptive insofar as going down you can easily be running a PR for the time (if you could keep it up) but on the way back up, as you pass Sherpas hauling oxygen tanks, you can lose the time.
One point: on the race website, you might want to direct people to the Miles of Smiles Website (or whatever it was...) for the results. I kept thinking they would pop up on the race website because they had last year's there.
I love the Glide! My mom comes down from the north hills to run it with my husband and I, and we always have a great time. I would appreciate it, though, if we could stop talking about how great it is...the more you folks talk it up, the stiffer the competition gets! Two years ago, I won my age group...now I'm 7th!!!
Kidding, of course. Of course. I mean, who would want to decrease competition on their home turf? Certainly not me!!!

LEXINGTON, Ky. – The No. 7/7 University of Kentucky women's basketball team earned its school-record fourth straight bid to the NCAA Tournament, and 10th overall, with a No. 2 seed in the Bridgeport Regional. The Wildcats' No. 2 seed ties its highest ever in the NCAA Tournament. The Wildcats (27-5) will face 15-seeded Navy in the first round Sunday, March 24 at Carnesecca Arena in Queens, N.Y. The game will air live on ESPNU at 12:05 p.m. ET.
The No. 2 seed is the third in school history for the Wildcats, and ties their highest seed ever in the tournament. Kentucky was also a two seed in 1982 and 2012. The other first-round matchup in Queens, N.Y., features No. 7 seed Dayton (27-2) and No. 10 seed St. John's (18-12).
"We're excited to be in the tournament again, and to get a two seed for the second year in a row shows you that the team has accomplished a lot over the season and they are considered one of the top eight teams in the country and there's a bunch of teams playing," UK Hoops Coach Matthew Mitchell said. "It's really, really good to be back in the tournament and we are excited to get started and see what we can do with the draw we received."
UK is 11-9 all-time in the Big Dance, including 7-3 under Mitchell. The best finishes for UK came in 2012, 2010 and 1982 when the Wildcats fell one win shy of the Final Four. Last season UK advanced to the Elite Eight with wins over McNeese State, Green Bay and Gonzaga. The Cats fell to top-seeded Connecticut in the NCAA Regional finals.
Navy (21-11), located in Annapolis, Md., and coached by Stefanie Pemper, claimed the 2013 Patriot League Tournament Championship with a 72-53 win over Holy Cross. It marked the Midshipmen's third straight tournament title. Navy, co-champions of the regular season, has won three consecutive games leading into the NCAA Tournament. It will be the Midshipmen's third straight trip to the NCAA Tournament.
Kentucky has a connection with Navy as former Wildcat Jenerrie Everette Harris (2001-04) who is in her fourth season as an assistant coach. UK also has a connection with the host-town of Queens, N.Y., as two Wildcats are native New Yorkers. Redshirt-sophomore point guard Jennifer O'Neill hails from the Bronx, N.Y., while sophomore forward Jelleah Sidney is from Queens Village, N.Y.
This will mark the first meeting vs. Navy in school history. However, UK is 3-0 all-time against teams from the Patriot League. Kentucky is 1-0 vs. American, Holy Cross and Lafayette.
Kentucky was one of seven Southeastern Conference teams to be awarded a bid to the NCAA Tournament on Monday evening. Texas A&M earned an automatic bid to the tournament after winning the conference tournament, and is a No. 3 seed in the Norfolk Regional. Tennessee (two seed), Georgia, South Carolina (four seeds), LSU (six seed) and Vanderbilt (eight seed) also made the field.
Earning No. 1 seeds are Baylor (32-1); Notre Dame (31-1); Connecticut (29-4) and Stanford (31-2). Baylor, Notre Dame and Stanford each won its respective conference regular season and tournament titles in the Big 12, Big East and Pac-12 Conferences, respectively, while Connecticut was an at-large selection from the Big East. The Final Four will be played April 7 and 9 at the New Orleans Arena in New Orleans.
The Queens, N.Y., pod is hosted by St. John's and will be played at Carnesecca Arena. Session booklets, which include all three games, are $25 for adults and $15 for students (must be purchased at ticket window). Single session tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for students. Tickets are available through St. John's ticket office at 1-800-GO-STORM or online at redstormsports.com. Everyone regardless of age requires a ticket for admission.

In season four, Hyacinth is determined to buy a cottage in the country as a weekend retreat. Needless to say, her idea of what is suitable matches neither Richard's wishes nor his wallet.

Aptos High wrestlers will pay tribute to Nathan Phillips by wearing black athletic tape on their right wrist during matches for the remainder of the season.
Phillips, 17, who competed for the Mariners as a junior in 2012-13, had his lifeless body pulled from the ocean at Seacliff State Beach on Thursday, nine days after he was reported missing.
The straight-A student competed on the junior-varsity team for the Mariners and placed in multiple tournaments, said Aptos coach Reggie Roberts.
Phillips didn't go out for the team this season.
"We're missing a part of our family this year," Roberts said. "Hopefully Nate's passing will bring us together greater as a team/family."
Roberts informed the Mariners of his former 126-pounder's death on Friday at practice, doing his best to fight back tears.
"It was tough to see someone who seems so strong break down," Mariners wrestler Ramon Zacarias said of his coach.
Aptos made an announcement over the public address system regarding Phillips on Monday and posted a note on aptos.net discussing ways to further remember Phillips and offer support outlets for mourning students.
Saturday, the Mariners competed in the 4th annual Webber Lawson at Fremont High in Sunnyvale and placed 12th out of 26 teams despite missing the majority of its returning talent that was busy helping the football team win the Central Coast Section Division III football championship on Dec. 6.
A moment of silence was held for Phillips at the Sunnyvale tournament, though announcers didn't mention him by name.
The Mariners plan to do the same this Wednesday night, when they host three duals meets, featuring Monterey and Westmont highs, beginning at 5 p.m.
Roberts -- who doesn't stress wins or loses, rather attitude, effort and personal growth -- noted Aptos isn't dedicating the season's success to Phillips. He said he hopes the black tape will serve as a reminder that everyone is special to someone and that Phillips was special to the Mariners.
Roberts has been inundated with sympathy emails from hundreds of well-wishers.
"He was a real go-getter," said Roberts, noting he hadn't seen Phillips since a team portrait last season.
Youth-laden Aptos won its fourth straight Santa Cruz Coast Athletic League title and took 24th at the CCS championships last season. Though Phillips didn't compete on varsity, he played a role in the team's success, several varsity wrestlers said.
"He was a strong competitor," said Zacarias, who won the league title at 122 pounds last season and often competed against Phillips in practice. "He was one of the strongest kids on the team for his weight. He was strong, fast and aggressive. He always gave 100 percent. It's a great loss to the community, a great loss to the team, and it hurts."
Aptos' Alex Marquez, the SCCAL's 2012-13 heavyweight champion, said the news hit the team hard.
"He was a good kid, really smart," said Marquez, who sat next to Phillips in Spanish class. "He helped me with class work a lot."
Marquez said Phillips was a perfectionist, both academically and athletically
"He helped kids, making sure their moves were right," Marquez said. "He worked hard on technique and liked to perfect moves. I remember a couple matches where he could've been pinned, he didn't give up. He kept fighting.
"We want to win for Nate and have a good season for Nathan." ------ (c)2013 the Santa Cruz Sentinel (Scotts Valley, Calif.) Visit the Santa Cruz Sentinel (Scotts Valley, Calif.) at www.santacruzsentinel.com

Columbia County commissioners were back at it Tuesday for the second day in a row, trying to find the funds for county projects.
Columbia County is over $40 million short. They planned to unite under one government and get the funding through city fees, but that fell through early this year.
Now, a list of about 50 projects is on hold.
$16 million is needed for improvements to roads like William Few, Evans to Locks, and Hereford Farm. Public Safety needs over $4 million for projects like new fire stations and equipment. Recreation needs over $8 million for park improvements. And Storm Water needs almost $12 million.
Commissioners are hoping to make up the $40 million in a property tax increase. They decided Tuesday that the list of 42 projects will appear on the ballot in November.
Not every commissioner and elected official agrees with every project. But the decision was all or nothing. The commission had to either pass all 42 or put the entire list on hold.
This morning, commissioners decided the best thing for the county is to give voters the chance to decide.
"As you would like to see, the commission came together and said 'I don't like this or I don't like that.' But this entire program of 42 projects is the best thing we can do for the county," says commission chairman Ron Cross.
The November ballot will have four categories: water, transportation, recreation, and safety. A yes vote for each is a yes vote for all the projects in the category.
That's what caused some problems.
Bowen Pond was a source of disagreement among commissioners. It's on private property, so it's not accessible to the entire county. But improvements are going to cost around $1 million.
The issue is that certain projects like that only benefit small portions of the community. But Commissioner Tommy Mercer and the others with reservations decided there's a lot on the list the county really needs.
"We've got a lot of projects on there that touch the lives of just about everyone in the unincorporated part of the county and the two municipalities," Mercer says.
One of those municipalities is the city of Harlem.
"I'm glad it's going to a vote, and the voters can at least have their say over whether or not they want to approve this," says Harlem mayor Scott Dean.
Mercer says the projects need funding sooner rather than later. He says delaying it any more means the list gets even longer.
"If it doesn't pass, the projects aren't going away," he says. "We're going to have to fund them some kind of way."
"Nobody wants to increase their taxes--that's me included," Cross says. "But there are certain things in the county that need to be done, and we hope this program has something for everyone."
Now the power is in the hands of voters.
The list took commissioners about a year to finalize. They have until Friday to get this decision in to the secretary of state's office in Atlanta.
