About the Book
Financial journalist Riva Froymovich has good reason to be anxious about the financial turmoil facing Generation Y. This is her generation.
Indeed, Generation Y has suffered the brunt of the financial crisis and great recession. For those in the U.S. born after 1976, the American dream is a is becoming a nightmare. Swamped in student loan debt they're postponing marriage and buying homes, unable to save money, and delaying having children.
The End of the Good Life: How the Financial Crisis Threatens a Lost Generation--and What We Can Do About It examines short-sighted government policies and initiatives that will wreak havoc on our youth. In addition to offering concrete policy suggestions, this book is driven by the touching personal stories of Americans and other young people around the globe affected by the financial crisis.
Generation Y faces the bleakest economic landscape in modern history. The recent spikes in unemployment and debt, alongside a drop in marriage, home-buying, and childbearing rates, will have long-term consequences for a group that had no hand in creating the financial crisis. For these young adults, the American Dream is moving farther out of reach. Worse still, leaders aren't doing anything about it. Drawing on a wide range of reportage and interviews from across the United States, Europe, Asia, and Latin America, Riva Froymovich gives voice to those struggling in this new economy and explains the harm of shortsighted government policies—including initiatives to curb the national debt and key social programs. Through policy suggestions that focus on social enterprise and investment in economic growth, as well as inspiring stories from young entrepreneurs carving out their own way, End of The Good Life presents a deeply relevant read for Millennials, their baby boomer parents, and anyone who cares about the survival of this nation's most important tenet: the opportunity to get ahead.

Dayton Duncan - The Dust Bowl
Tuesday, November 13, 2012
6:30pm @ Plaza Branch
The result of uncontrolled plowing on the Great Plains, the Dust Bowl of the 1930s turned prairies into deserts and unleashed a pattern of massive and deadly dust storms. Children contracted "dust pneumonia," businesses collapsed, and thousands lost their land and were forced on the road.
A screening of excerpts from Ken Burns' The Dust Bowl will be followed by a panel discussion headlined by the documentary's writer and co-producer Dayton Duncan.
Co-sponsored by KCPT and the University of Kansas Libraries.

New old stock found! Limited quantities! Andy is a multi-instrumentalist who put together some excellent jazz-influenced salsa sessions in the seventies.

Yomo Toro, Eddie Martinez and Jose Madrid are some of the excellent musicians on this mid-seventies date, which features a soulful version of 'Tin Tin Deo' and the irresistible dance groove of 'La Mujer Cocinera.'

[Only a few left in stock. Once it's gone, it's gone. - Ed. ] This great late 1970s session is one of the hottest salsa dates ever. The group's sizzling version of 'Baila que baila' is a classic. Panamanian singer Azuquita, one of my favorite soneros, and an emerging Jose Alberto 'El Canario' share vocals. Violinist Alfredo de la Fe, timbalero Nicky Marrero and pianist Sonny Bravo are part of a large cast of all-stars that inject an unbelievable level of energy into this swinging album."

CD (Selecto 65709),Released 2012;
Colombian singer and bandleader Buenaventura offers a heady mix of salsa, Latin jazz and Afro-Colombian folk rhythms in this arresting offering. The orchestra's sound, reminiscent of mainstream salsa units like El Gran Combo and Willie Rosario's band, is big, brash and funky, with a powerfully tight rhythm section. This Colombian slice of the salsa pie adds some welcome gritty texture to the genre.

Arte Mixto, Deseos
CD (Ahi-Nama 1009),Released 1997;
"This sextet is among the most interesting of the new Cuban groups. Sparingly used pop elements fortify an eclectic acoustic sound that explores a number of Afro-Cuban styles through an ensemble sound shaped by guitar, violin and vocal harmonies. Lead singer Sandra Cepeda is coy and vibrant, a real find. A key track is the group's infectious version of Ritchie Rey's salsa hit 'Aguzate.'"

CD (Concord Picante 4778),Released 1997;
"Conguero Sanchez has forged fruitful partnerships with guest artists like Eddie Harris on previous dates, and has struck a responsive chord with tributes to the music of Cal Tjader and Mongo Santamaria. On his latest album, Sanchez embraces the funky, R&B-flavored tradition of the Jazz Crusaders, featuring two of the original group's members, saxophonist Wilton Felder and trombonist Wayne Henderson. Poncho and his octet also cover such Crusaders hits as the album's title tune and 'Scratch.' The Cubanization of Brazilian composer Edu Lobo's seldom heard 'Aleluia' is another highlight.

SANTA CLARA -- With all-time assist leader Evan Roquemore out of the lineup for academic reasons, Santa Clara had several younger players out of position Saturday night in its 91-81 loss to Brigham Young at the Leavey Center.
Roquemore's absence was one of many challenges the Broncos proved unable to overcome.
"Evan's a great player for us," senior forward Jerry Brown said. "When Evan's out there, we've got a better chance to win. We just had to work with what we had."
Santa Clara announced just before tipoff that Roquemore and fellow senior John McArthur would not play against BYU "for failure to uphold academic responsibilities." Roquemore, the starting point guard and third-leading scorer this season with 11.6 points per game, was not even permitted to attend the game due to an undisclosed violation of team rules.
SCU coach Kerry Keating said Roquemore's absence wasn't an excuse for his team's loss.
"The first team to 80 points wins with (BYU)," Keating said. "When they haven't gotten to 80 points, they've lost, and tonight they got to 80 way too fast by scoring 47 in the first half."
Freshman guard Jared Brownridge scored a career-high 30 points for Santa Clara (10-11, 3-5 West Coast Conference) before a crowd of 2,560 that seemed equal parts SCU and BYU. Brownridge's four 3-pointers in the contest moved him past Roquemore into the No. 2 spot on SCU's list of most 3-pointers by a freshman.
Junior guard Brandon Clark added 20 points for SCU, the seventh time he's scored at least 20 in eight WCC games. He also dished out seven assists.
Brigham Young (13-7, 5-2), meanwhile, had six players finish in double figures. Junior guard Tyler Haws, the WCC's leading scorer, was one of them despite the fact that he only played a minute of the first half due to picking up two early fouls.
"It's hard enough with Haws in the game," Keating said. "For them to get that kind of support from their bench is a credit to them. It's what makes them such a dangerous team."
Sophomore guard Kyle Collinsworth led the Cougars with 18 points. Haws and Anson Winder, who replaced him in the first half, finished with 16 apiece.
The Broncos had tremendous difficulty penetrating inside against BYU's stifling 2-3 zone defense in the first half, especially after the Cougars seized a 5-4 lead on a 3-pointer by junior guard Skyler Halford with 17:03 remaining in the first half. Brigham Young led from that point on.
Forced to fire away from the perimeter, SCU missed 11 of its first 12 3-pointers and managed just two field goals in the final 7:30 of the first half, both by Brownridge. As a result, the Cougars were able to build a 24-point lead that the Broncos managed to trim to 17 at halftime.
The Broncos fell behind by 21 early in the second half but rallied to cut the Cougars' lead to 10. A 3-pointer by junior guard Denzel Johnson with 14:15 to play touched off a 12-0 run that narrowed the score to 58-48.
Brigham Young responded with an 18-4 run of its own, however, and the Broncos never recovered, though they did pull back within 10 on a long 3-pointer by Brownridge with less than a minute to play.
"We just needed to figure it out," Brown said. "In the second half we did a better job of pushing the tempo and getting to our spots."

THE MODERATOR: Congratulations on a well-deserved victory. Why don't I open up the questions out here and ask away?
Q. Todd and Cot. Could you just talk about, I guess, the first way he tested your patience and maybe he tested your trust at times?
TODD PLETCHER: As for me, I was just hoping that he would have an absence of bad luck. And not necessarily get a good break, but just don't have anything go against us.
We had trouble in Louisiana. We didn't do good in the Derby and God knows we went good today.
THE MODERATOR: Anybody else?
Q. Could you explain what was the difference today than the Derby? You went so fast in the Derby and then today he was able to relax more?
TODD PLETCHER: Well, I think the real key, he was relaxed. It was actually, I thought, for a Belmont, pretty keenly run, first part of the race. But the main thing was, Mike was able to get him to a real comfortable rhythm. The horse had trained really impressively, and we just felt if we could get him into that rhythm, get him relaxed, it wouldn't necessarily matter if he was on the lead, fourth, fifth. Wherever he was, it wouldn't matter as long as Mike had him in that big gallop he had.
Q. Could you take a little bit, you sort of mentioned when you walked in here, the feeling you had today across the finish line as opposed to last year and all three Triple Crown races?
MIKE SMITH: I guess I should be an optimist, you know, and all three races last year, they all ran extremely well. But today meant a lot to me. Mr. Campbell, Dogwood and Todd, just for having faith in me, believing in me, and keeping me on.
They certainly could have changed very easily after the Derby. It wasn't the prettiest of things. When I came back, Todd knew right away, I think running on a floated racetrack, it made a lot of noise. He caught such a good break. I kind of asked him out of there.
You know, in hindsight, if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't asked him out of there, but we thought we would break well, and have him settled, we rode really well and I asked him out of there, and then all that noise behind him, he was just running scared. He completely ran through the bridle.
Whereas today, you know, we were going at a decent clip. I felt we were moving along pretty good. He was just so relaxed, and great rhythm, I mean, down the back side. He pricked his ears every now and then, just take a deep breath of air. I felt very confident he was going to run.
Q. Todd, could you have asked for three better works leading up to this?
TODD PLETCHER: No. In particular, this second work, or two works back, I told Mr. Campbell afterwards, as good as a work I ever seen a horse put forth in the morning, and you know, not just the five furlong part of it. But we kind of emphasized the gallop outs you the definitely want a strong gallop out.
There is not a horse training any better than he. He
become a little bit frustrating, because we really felt like there was a big one in. And like Mr. Campbell said, the Louisiana Derby was a nightmare. He never had a chance to run there. So we had to kind of alter course and run back quickly in the bluegrass. And saw some tire marks late in the race there. Went back to his left lead and kind of lost his momentum.
You know, probably overthought the Derby a little bit putting the blinkers on, but, you know, I can live with we put the blinkers on and he was two rank if he jumped tire marks 57 yards before the wire and finished second, I was wishing, you know, you live and learn and it paid off today.
Q. Yeah, for Todd, and especially Mike. Todd, I asked you about this earlier in the week with Mike. Can you look back on it now and say for blinkers on might have been the mistake at the Derby, and second guess that all you want, but did that set up this race with blinkers on? Did it really play a big role five weeks ago to set up this race?
MIKE SMITH: He certainly got a lot out of the Derby. I meant he went quick enough. And he ran a sneaky race in the Derby. It wasn't like he just folded at the quarter pole and just everybody went by him.
I mean, he was actually stealing the race at the eight pole. You take into consideration he never once took, never got a second breath of air running that fast. He ran incredibly well.
Today, that's all he did. I mean, it seemed like every ten strides he would just fill up with air again, there he'd start. It's a beautiful rhythm. That's all it was, was getting him into that rhythm. Certainly bred to go the distance. All along, Todd always told me he's got it in him.
And he rode the perfect game plan. It ran just like he rode it. I'm just happy to be a part of it.
Q. Todd, your thoughts with the whole thing with blinkers on setting up this race.
TODD PLETCHER: It's hard to say. I mean, maybe we got to the bottom of it a little bit in the Derby. Maybe that's what he needed to take another step forward. But I know that, you know, if the five horses that we ran in the Derby, he was the one that bounced out of it the quickest.
Honestly, if we were thinking about running one back in the Preakness, he would have been the one I would have chosen out the group. But we just felt like he run in the Louisiana Derby. He run in the Blue Grass. He run in the Kentucky Derby.
Mr. Campbell and I talked about it and decided the right thing was not to run him back in two weeks, but hoping the five weeks would bring him forward.
Q. Mike, you've [won or hit the board] in the last four Belmonts you've ridden in. You got two wins during that stretch. I mean, is experience some you really need to excel in this race? Did you figure some things out in your career to do so well at this point in your career in the Belmont?
MIKE SMITH: Experience and extremely talented horse. I was just blessed, again, to be part of it and to have ridden so many years in the Belmont. I think Gary Stevens put it best when he said, it's like the ocean. You can get lost, if you don't know it. And these are my waters. I know where the fish are at.
Q. It's been a long time between classic drinks. But a lot of misconception about where you are in your career. A lot of people say you're retiring. But I know you've still got horses. So what does this mean to you going forward? How many horses? And you planning to be in this for a while?
COT CAMPBELL: I don't think it will accelerate my retirement. I'll put it that way. And I have cut back. We used to carry 65 horses. We've got 30, 35 now, and I'm going to just play it as it comes along. I enjoy what I do. God knows I've had the most wonderful life a human being could have, and this is a great chapter in it.
And so I'm not in any hurry to do anything but keep on doing what I'm doing. As I have said, I don't want to chase any rabbits I can't catch.
Q. You Caught it today.
COT CAMPBELL: Yes.
Q. For Mike, can you tell us as you got toward the end of the backstretch, you know, and you're still tracking those horses, you know, what you saw from Oxbow, and I understand there was an exchange between you and Stevens. I'd like to you elaborate on.
MIKE SMITH: Yeah, I was just keeping a close eye on him. He wasn't going to try and -- would be able to steal it at some point. Gary is known to do stuff like that. You know, I was keeping a close on eye on him. I felt I was moving better. When I ranged up next to him, it was like a movie scene. He looked over to me. I could see his face clear as day. He says, he go on little brother, you're moving better than me. Just ride off your win. Don't leave me yet.
And I won. He run second. You couldn't have written this script any better.
Q. -- did you feel strongly?
MIKE SMITH: One of the closers were going to have to run a race of a lifetime to get by me. I felt like I was moving that good.
Q. Earlier in the week you were talking about driving with your dad to first come to work [at Belmont Park for Wayne Lukas]. Can you talk about those days, your thoughts? You ever thought you'd get to the spot you're at now?
TODD PLETCHER: No, I never dreamed it would happen that way. I was telling someone the other day, they were talking about Easy Goer and Sunday Silence. My dad and I drove up, it was like a 24-hour drive, basically, and we got to the hotel in time to see that Preakness.
As you're coming here next day is my first day of working for Wayne and, you know, couldn't have imagined getting the opportunity to win races like this.
Q. Do you still get excited and nervous about this type of thing? What are you feeling in the moments --
TODD PLETCHER: I don't know if they showed in the replay yet. They were filming me in the grandstand. I told Mike about the 16th pole, I jumped on pretty hard. I kind of looked and I thought that point he had a good chance and kind of surveyed the rest. Better help Mike ride this one home.
Q. How does it feel to have your sons here and your dad and family be a part of it?
TODD PLETCHER: You know, what's really gratifying more for me about the job that I have is that something that you can share with your friends and family, and you know, having my dad here and my whole family here, and my best friend from college came today, him and his wife, roommates in college. So they came in. Really, to me, this win was for Mr. Campbell.
Q. What are your plans now and future plans, if anything?
TODD PLETCHER: For Palace Malice?
Q. For the horse.
TODD PLETCHER: I mean, I know Mr. Campbell pretty well. I imagine he's got Saratoga on his mind pretty quick.
Q. Mr. Pletcher, you said Easy Goer once was the best horse you've seen in the last 25 years. How does a horse like this compare to horses you've had and a horse like that?
TODD PLETCHER: I don't know for sure. I said that, but he was, like I said, you know, the first day I was on the job, basically, was three weeks later. He was winning the Belmont. It's an honor to be able to train horses that win races like this.
Q. Todd, can you elaborate on what this means, to win this for Dogwood and, you know, a client of yours for a very long time?
TODD PLETCHER: Mr. Campbell gave me an opportunity when no one knew who I was, and I didn't have any horses. He's been a supporter of me, basically, from the very beginning. We've had a long, terrific relationship. He's been very, very good to me.
COTHRAN CAMPBELL: Let me pitch in and say that I sent maybe four horses to Todd in 1996, and I guess he had eight, and he might have lied a little about his age. I think he said he was 30, and he probably was 29, but it's been a great relationship and we've hit it off, we never had a bad moment, and I'm proud of what he's done.
He will go down as one of the great trainers in the history of the game. At least I had the good sense to give him a shot early on. Lucky.
Q. Can you compare this Belmont to the first you won back in 2007 with Rags to Riches?
TODD PLETCHER: Yeah, I mean, I feel just as excited about this one and for all the reasons I just talked about but you know I felt like to me that Rags to Riches was sort of getting the monkey off your back. Hadn't won a Classic up to that point, we had opportunities in the Derby, few in the Preakness the Belmont. We hadn't won one yet. After a little while, it started to build on you a little bit. I felt like it was tremendously exciting but also a relief. This one was just exciting.
Q. Just following up on those questions, Cot, is this Dogwood's finest hour?
COT CAMPBELL: I wouldn't be surprised. I don't know what would beat it. It comes at, you know, what is certainly the twilight of my career, to put it euphemistically. So I wouldn't be surprised. It's a race that means a lot to me. I like the tradition of it, and I've come to the Belmont many years and, yeah, it's hot stuff.
Q. Mr. Campbell, I wonder is this might be worth another book this race this victory?
COT CAMPBELL: If there's another book in me this will push it on a little bit.
Q. Obviously the Derby was a sloppy track in Kentucky. Were you worried it was going to be like this today with the weather we had yesterday?
MIKE SMITH: Early on it was sloppy, they were getting over it pretty good and getting over it well, and with the wind that was going on and the great weather this track dries really quick of course by the sixth, seventh race you could already it was going to be a fast track.
Q. You said Mr. Pletcher drew up a game plan, what was the game plan?
MIKE SMITH: Right where I was. He gave me a plan B, he said, hey, don't think you don't have to be -- if you're going 49, go to lead, lead on 49, but more likely you'll be sitting right outside of Oxbow, just keep your eye on him and you just play it from there. That's really what we did. We thought Freedom Child would probably be in front. I knew that Kenny McPeek, he was going to try to send his horse in the one hole, but I just didn't think he had his feet that Freedom Child did, I knew Oxbow would be sitting right of him, and we just parked ourselves right outside of that him.
Q. Mike and Todd, do you think that having the post position of 12 helped your horse, did that play into his strengths at all.
MIKE SMITH: I was happy with the post. I know Todd was, Mr. Campbell was. We didn't have to do a lot for jockeying for position, it was a matter of getting in the right order, getting into rhythm, once I put my hands on him, he's been taught that and he did it.
Q. Todd, were your eyes pretty much on this horse the whole way with all your other guys out there? What was going on there?
TODD PLETCHER: He was the easiest one to see just because of the position he was in, and I kept trying to monitor where some of the other ones were, I saw Revolutionary making kind of a move down the back side, looked like Overanalyze and him were kind of stuck down inside. I could barely see the Unlimited Budget, she was parked on the outside, certainly felt like by the three-eights pole you could tell Mike was moving really comfortably, turning for home, I kind of saw Orb was making his run. At that point, you're thinking you've got a quarter mile to go already run a quarter mile hoping he's got enough left in the tank.
Q. You mentioned Unlimited Budget, what is the future?
She's just a big, nice-looking filly; what's down the road for her?
TODD PLETCHER: Well, you know, we give her plenty of time after this race to regroup and think maybe in Saratoga, the Coaching Club or Alabama probably makes sense, well see how she mounts after this.
Q. Mr. Smith, how does this horse rate to some of the great Belmont wins you've been in?
MIKE SMITH: As Todd said earlier, he knew he had that good one in him he showed that today. If he could come back and keep this performance a time or two, he's going to rank way up there. Some big races left for him.
Q. What point during the trip did you feel that he really had the Belmont locked up and knew you were going to win the race?
MIKE SMITH: I've been around a long time you don't have nothing locked you. I love the way he was moving. I liked the way he was doing things. It ain't locked up. Just for an example, look at last year, I thought it was locked up, get through down on the inside on me. So it anit over till it's over.
Q. Any last questions before we let these gentlemen go?
MIKE SMITH: Thank you. Campbell thank you.
TODD PLETCHER: Thank you.

A Masterpiece in Your Pocket
Posted by Shreve & Co. at 3:05:27 AM in Panerai (29)
The Panerai Pocket watch, officially PAM 446 Pocket Watch Tourbillon GMT Ceramica, is a celebration of the origins of watchmaking and an evidence of the Swiss company's passion for innovation as well as tradition. The exclusive masterpiece echoes the history of Panerai, as the brand's earliest timepieces had been known as the "Pocket watches made by the main Swiss makers." Nevertheless, it finds itself among the most admirable contemporary haute horlogerie pieces. The P.2005/S movement, which can be viewed clearly through Paneria's iconic open dial design, is enhanced by a sophisticated tourbillon oscillating perpendicular to the balance at two rotations per minute. A small ecru disk within the small seconds dial at 9 o'clock reflects the rotation of the tourbillon, making the skeleton dial not only a source for accurate time but also a wonderful display of horology expertise. The 59 mm diameter black ceramic case of the pocket watch is attached to a strong nautical-inspired chain, which can be detached and replaced by a back support.
Find the pocket watch tourbillon by Panerai at Shreve & Co in Palo Alto, San Francisco, and Portland.

City officials to discuss sales taxes, borders at Legislative Breakfast on Monday
Published: Sunday, January 27, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 26, 2013 at 9:22 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | City officials will urge local legislators to oppose any legislation that will streamline sales tax collections statewide during their annual Legislative Breakfast on Monday.
The concern is rooted in a growing push for national rules to require that sales taxes are collected from every online purchase.
Now, sales taxes are not collected on web-based transactions with businesses that have no brick-and-mortar building within the area from which the purchase was made. This means a purchase made by someone in Tuscaloosa on Amazon.com is not charged sales tax, but one made at BestBuy.com would be taxed.
Alabama law says people who make online purchases from businesses that don't collect sales tax should calculate the tax and pay it on their income tax return.
But with no mechanism to enforce the provision, few report it.
According to Gov. Robert Bentley's office, this loophole costs Alabama about $300 million a year, city officials said.
Securing these lost tax dollars is a worthy goal, but the current plan, city officials said, would centralize sales tax collections at the state level, thereby preventing local revenue collection efforts from monitoring the businesses that fall within its jurisdiction.
And in addition to removing Tuscaloosa's ability to ensure that local sales taxes are properly collected, it would force businesses to take questions related to tax collections to a state agency.
"Ultimately, I think it will cause more confusion within our business community," said Mayor Walt Maddox.
This is one of the 20 items the City Council adopted last week in its local legislative agenda. This compilation of anticipated laws and bills that the council either endorses or opposes, as well as other matters it wants to see addressed during the regular session, will be formally presented to the local delegation during the annual breakfast held at the Tuscaloosa River Market.
Also on the agenda is Tuscaloosa support for altering a portion of the boundary separating Tuscaloosa and Northport.
Shifting Tuscaloosa's border from the northern edge of the Black Warrior River to the waterway's midpoint was approved by the City Council last month after Northport officials and state Rep. Alan Harper, R-Northport, made the request.
Usually, when two municipalities border one river, the jurisdiction for each ends in the middle of the water. But for a nearly one-mile span of the Black Warrior River near Northport's historic downtown, the city of Tuscaloosa's border ends on the northern shore of the Black Warrior River.
Harper and Northport City Administrator Scott Collins asked the Tuscaloosa City Council to go along with the change because the current border would not allow Northport to benefit from any riverfront development that extends from its jurisdiction into the river, such as a marina or private boat dock.
Other items on the agenda include extending legal liability limits to those sued in their individual capacities as part of lawsuits against municipal employees. These limits of $100,000 per person, per offense or a total of $300,000 in the event of widespread offenses are offered only when those employees are sued in their official capacities.
The City Council also would like to increase the amount City Hall and police officers and firefighters contribute to the Tuscaloosa Fire and Pension Fund by 0.25 percent of the employee's salary. Because the fund was established by the Legislature in the 1950s, any changes to it must be approved at the state level.
To eliminate complaints from unsuspecting buyers and renters, the council supports legislation that would require sellers or landlords to disclose the occupancy limitations for which the property is zoned.
Officials said it's common for residents to purchase a home with the intention of converting into rental property only to learn after the deal is closed that the number of unrelated persons who can live under one roof is regulated by city law.
Other items include:
- Opposition to any legislation adverse to the city's water and sewer operations.
- Support for Lake Tuscaloosa extra-territorial zoning.
- Opposition to drug sales exemptions from the gross receipt total that is used to determine business license fees.
- Support for adequately funding the state General Fund budget to eliminate unfunded mandates for municipalities.
- Opposition to legislation that would redistribute tax proceeds collected from the sale of beer across Tuscaloosa County.
- Support for legislation to bolster tornado recovery efforts.
- Opposition to limitations on business license fees.
- Support for extending law enforcement immunity to tactical paramedics.
- Support for modernization of the state's bicycle laws.

Kirk Aker, the progressive assault on Christ during the past 50 years has resulted in societal and moral decline in every measure possible, from unwed pregnancy, drug use, literacy, SAT scores, honesty, murder, rape or any other measure you wish to look at.
You state that it is the parent's responsibility to provide and teach morals. Morals come from this same God who is belittled and abused in public schools and hated by progressives - you know, the 10 Commandments.
How do you think your progressive ideals are working out for our society? Godless kids pumped out of politically correct public schools, some who seem to think it is OK to mimic a video game and shoot up a school. The progressive response is predictable: Blame the gun instead of the godless soul who pulled the trigger. You have the right not to believe in Christ. The Bible calls it free will. You are correct, I do believe social justice are dirty words, because Jesus Christ did not teach social justice. In fact, he taught the opposite.
He wanted to change the hearts of men, not level the playing field. Social justice is the government taking equally from those who have. Social justice embodies essential principles of equity (George Mason University definition), but Jesus Christ taught you individually must give to those who need. If you do not understand the difference, you don't understand Christianity.
Jesus Christ came, died on the cross for our sins and was resurrected to provide an example for us who believe. John 3:16-17: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."
The Bible also speaks about people like you. 1 Cor 1:18-19: "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent."
Mr. Aker, I hope you take the time this Easter Sunday to visit one of the Christian churches in the valley to take a little of God's grace into your heart.

Delegates Sworn In January 4 Constitutional Committee Begins Difficult Task Dixon: The ten-member Constitutional Committee has begun the difficult task of reviewing and proposing changes in the Tribe's 39 year old constitution. The five men and five women of the special committee were sworn in during the first quarterly Tribal Council Meeting Jan.4 at the Dixon agency gym. The ten were elected from a slate of 31 during the Dec. 15 Tribal Council Elections. The committee's first order of business was to select officers. Doug Allard, an Indian Craft Store proprietor from St. Ignatius, was elected Chairman ...Rose Cline, who works with the Indian Public Health Service and is a Poison resident, was selected as Vice-Chairwoman...and Jane Fouty,a Commodity Clerk in St. Ignatius, was elected Secretary. During a meeting Jan. 8, the committee began to clear some of the ground work for their task. Conferences with a Bureau of Indian Affairs Tribal Constitution expert and the Tribal Attorney were scheduled. The Committee will meet with Tom Whitford, Billings Area BIA Operations Officer, Jan. 18, to review BIA and Indian Reorganization Act requirements for Tribal Constitutions. On Jan. 23, the con-con delegates will discuss legal problems f and strategy with Richard Beanan, of the Washington D. C. legal firm of Wilkenson, Cra-gun and Barker. The committee also decided to establish a procedure of reviewing the old constitution article-by-article rather than in order of importance. They felt that this would save time and would permit them to provide more positive progress reports to the Council and the people of the tribe. As soon as the committe has its legal footing, it will take the old constituion and any proposals it has for change to the people in a series of district meetings. The meetings will begin after the committee has heard from Whitford and Beanen. There will be at least one meeting in each of the 8 reservation districts and the committee has decided to hold them on Saturdays to give more people an opportunity to attend. Tentatively, the district meetings will start at e ither 10 :00 a.m. or 7 :00 p.m. depending on when district representatives feel most people will be free. Missoula: A U.S. Federal District Court Judge has found that Tribal Members who do not reside on the reservation are not entitled to vote in constitutional change referendums. Last month, Missoula District Federal Judge William J. Jameson, in a case between the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes and the Bureau of Indian Affairs overturned a Department of Interior order which would have permitted off-reservation voting in constitutional elections. The ruling was the last development in the November 17,1973, election to determine whether or not 18 year olds should be allowed to vote in tribal elections. In that election, both off reservation members and 18 year olds....as well as adult residents...were allowed to vote. The ballots of all three groups were counted separately and all three groups overwhelmingly approved the lowered voting age. Consequently, the 18 year The people of the tribe will also have an opportunity to voice their views in a questionnaire mailed with the last Char-Koosta. These questionnaires, which should be returned to the committee before March 1, give members an opportunity olds were allowed to vote in the Dec. 15 Tribal Council-Constitutional Committee election. In reversing the Department of the Interior ruling, Judge Jameson found that "...the Tribes Constitution and By-Laws were adopted at the October 4, 1935, election by a majority vote of the adult Ind- Dixon: Pledging to "listen to anybody but represent the needs of the working Indians on the reservation", newly elected Tribal Councilman Joe McDonald took his seat during the first Quarterly Council Meeting January 4.

Weather Journal: Cold Start to New Year
After completing the warmest year on record, New York City enters the new year on a chilly note.
According to a Weather Journal analysis, 2012 was the warmest year in city history. No year has been as warm since modern weather record-keeping began at Central Park (1869), and there's compelling evidence that perhaps no year since the city's founding in the 1620s has been as warm, either.
The local National Weather Service is in the midst of running the official numbers and will likely confirm the new record on Wednesday.
The new record comes as climate change edges to the fore of city politics after a year in which superstorm Sandy motivated renewed discussions about local adaptations to increasingly extreme weather. Eight of the 10 warmest years in official city records have occurred since 1990. At least 31 other cities in at least 17 other states also tied or broke their all-time records, including the United States as a whole, according to a report from the Weather Channel.
Last year broke the old record shared by 1990, 1991, and 1998 by a tenth of a degree (57.3F vs 57.2F). Last month was the 11th warmest December since 1869, even though the month ended with a cold spell (there were more below normal days over the last three days of December at Central Park than throughout the entire rest of the month combined) that has continued into the new year.
That cold weather will intensify over the coming days, particularly on Wednesday night, as temperatures will dip well into the teens in outlying areas around Greater New York. Wind chill values, including those in the city, will be in the teens and single digits each night until at least Sunday. The National Weather Service office in Albany, N.Y., has issued a rare alert for anyone who may be partaking in activities on frozen upstate lakes in the coming days: beware of ice collapses due to the weight of the nearly two feet of fresh snow that has recently fallen.
Lingering high pressure should ensure that no large scale snow storms will impact the region at least through the next seven to 10 days.
Weather Journal's Greater New York forecast roundup:
- WSJ Headquarters in Manhattan:
- Actual High: 34; High feels like: 35
- Actual Low: 25; Low feels like: 18
- Weather: Cold, wind chills in the teens and single digits
- Brooklyn: 34/25
- Queens: 35/26
- Bronx: 35/25
- Staten Island: 34/25
- Poughkeepsie, N.Y.: 30/12, wind chills a few degrees above zero
- Trenton, N.J.: 34/22
- Islip, Long Island: 34/22
- New Haven, Conn.: 32/17

Engineers talk in front of a home, where a sinkhole opened up underneath a bedroom late Thursday evening and swallowed a man, in Seffner, Fla. on Saturday, March 2, 2013. Jeffrey Bush, 37, was in his bedroom Thursday night when the earth opened and took him and everything else in his room. Five other people were in the house but managed to escape unharmed. Bush's brother jumped into the hole to try to help, but he had to be rescued himself by a sheriff's deputy. (AP Photo/Chris O'Meara)

I've been using this since beta testing. While I miss some of the pre-X functionality, The current version Works well enough for my purposes. That is, publishing a newsletter, writing articles, books and research papers. Nisus has helped me publish two books and many short stories and articles. Since I use three "foreign" languages, Nisus becomes a necessity. I'm especially impressed on how right-to-left Hebrew is so neatly and easily (I just change keyboards and Nisus takes care of all the dreary work) inserted into the English text. I'm satisfied with the import speed and ..... but really wish they'd bring back all the indexing and stuff that was lost in moving from system 9 to X. The Macro Language is really handy at times. None of my work is done with outside input so tracking changes doesn't really matter to me, though it would be handy for marking up; the differences in different versions. Priced so reasonably you just can't pass this one up!
I love this program.
Importing other formats under snow leopard has become painfully slow b/c NWP uses PPC binaries for the importers. No longer my WP of choice as a result -- I will still use for finishing up my work (begun in Scrivener) but am seeking other solutions for viewing / editing documents in formats other than RTF. Developers are usually quite responsive but the problem with dead slow importing has been around several months now and they aren't addressing it.
Could I use this as free?
The most important for me in Nisus is that it supports secondary fonts. None of Apple app support this(Pages, Textedit, ...), and MS Office and NeoOffice just sucks. Hooray for Nisus!
Excellent, with very responsive support, a helpful user community, a robust macro language, and a non-proprietary file format (rtf). Better WordPerfect importing than NeoOffice or AbiWord (which both use libwpd). I've come to use it for nearly all of my single-authored documents - but it's missing a key feature for any collaboration: track changes.
Yippie! A very reliable and fast wp with all central features. Great!
Version 1.0 is officially released and the price is $79.
This is my favorite word processor for the Mac. I write in Scrivener and format in Nisus. Great combination.
Only available in beta at this point....not sure why v3.0 is listed.

As 18 kids from the U.S. (the Snowboard Outreach Society) were chosen to go to London, I was fortunate to be one of them. Knowing that I was representing the U.S., I knew I had to be on my A game.
After landing in London my heart was pumping, I was ready to see everything. From cultural displays to athletic events, everything seemed to pop out and look amazing. Not knowing what events we were going to see was half the excitement. I know that getting to London was as if I had won the lottery, anything after that was adding to the price. I thought that this trip was going to be just for fun, but the truth is I changed. I learn plenty of things - culturally, historically, socially and just about life.
When we landed in London I still couldn't believe it, I pinched myself trying to make sure it wasn't a dream. The first day we were there we didn't rest, we were up and ready to explore. As we headed down to where we were staying, we were in shock. The building we were staying in was called High Leigh. This building was a mansion, hospital, church, and now a sort of hotel. The staff was extremely generous and we found out that most of them were volunteers and they were part of the Salvation Army. Knowing how generous people are made me think, if they can do things for others, and not think of themselves, then why are most things all about me? I became more aware.
Traveling through London made me see the difference between the USA and Great Britain. I realized the U.S. is more socially insecure. By that, I mean races are more separated here than there. I saw in Great Britain that every culture was diffusing into one another. I felt safe and secure. I enjoyed seeing people helping everywhere we went, and not racial problems like we face here. I love America, I just believe that we can become more of a unit. I mean, if Great Britain did it we can do it, too. It's not impossible.
In London we met with kids from Canada and parts of London. I learned from talking to some of them that they don't have perfect lives and they struggle just the same way as I do. Their lives haven't been filled with high points and you can say they are "at risk kids" as well. Knowing that there are kids with same problems I have is a relief. I am not the only one. Other than that, I learned how each culture reacts to one another. We all speak English but with different dialects. It was interesting, and fun to try to mimic one another's speech.
Each culture had different ways of making friends, it was interesting. We all were shy, but we became so close at the end it was depressing to say goodbye. It was like saying goodbye to a family back home. The only problem was that these were people we will probably never see again and it hurt more than anything.
I also learned that being generous always pays off. Just knowing that the Olympics had so many people there was crazy. But the wild thing was that everyone I saw there was helping out one another, and it seemed as though I was back in Eagle, the little community where people help one another, and everyone helps keep the town running. Being such a big event, I thought that I would have to just take care of myself. But everywhere I went someone was there to give a hand.
I knew then that the Olympics brought people together. Everyone just wanting to see their athletes win, and this brought Americans, Mexicans, British, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, all different cultures together for this one massive event.
This trip helped me see how the world works outside the little community I live in. It opened my eyes to see that life outside the Eagle Valley is amazing. Everything has a little twist to it, nothing that you hear is how it really is.
At the beginning of this trip I believed that I was just going to have fun, and that's about it. I didn't expect to learn so much and find things I didn't know about the world. Now that I look back of this trip, my perspective has changed in many ways.

After weeks of scandalous revelations about her tempestuous affair with a methamphetamine addict, Alameda County Supervisor Nadia Lockyer said Friday she was resigning from office to recover from her own addiction and care for her 8-year-old son.
When asked in an exclusive interview to explain why she was quitting, Lockyer, who celebrates her 41st birthday Saturday, paused for a moment, tears welling in her eyes, and told this newspaper: "I'm resigning today as a mother, and as ... I don't like to say the word 'victim,' but as somebody that didn't realize how difficult it would be to heal from what I went through the last year."
The wife of state Treasurer Bill Lockyer, Nadia Lockyer began a public meltdown in February after reporting she'd been assaulted in a Newark hotel room by an ex-lover and then revealed she was going into rehab for "alcoholism and addiction." The two months since brought a series of sordid accusations -- from embarrassing text messages and voice mails to claims of blackmail.
"The public deserves and I think wants some answers and is tired of hearing about me and all this drama," Lockyer said Friday in an emotional interview from her Hayward hills home. "I do need to resign and really, really focus on my recovery from both the assault and that abusive relationship, healing my heart and my psyche."
Bill Lockyer, 70, on Friday afternoon issued a statement saying he fully supported his wife's decision to resign and focus on her recovery and their son.
"She has worked hard and well for her district," he said. "But the last year took a great toll on Nadia. It's best for her, best for Diego and best for our family that she leave public office."
As a reporter interviewed his wife in their living room, Bill Lockyer arrived home carrying his dry-cleaning, then sorted mail and went about household tasks.
Shortly after Friday's interview, Nadia Lockyer issued a letter to her constituents and friends: "Without a doubt, being a mother is the most important role and duty of my lifetime. I can surely be a great mom and effectively represent the 325,000-plus constituents of District 2, yet not while also (treading) the waters of early recovery from addiction and the aftermath of interpersonal violence."
Adrienne Dell, an attorney for Lockyer's ex-boyfriend, Stephen Chikhani, of San Jose, said Friday she thought the supervisor made the right decision to resign.
"She needs to take care of her personal business," Dell said, adding that there's "no point in commenting on the rest of her statement."
Newark police investigated Lockyer's complaint that Chikhani attacked her, but because she used to work for the Alameda County District Attorney's Office, the case was passed along to the state Justice Department.
A department spokeswoman said Friday afternoon that the case remains under investigation with no timeline for a decision on whether criminal charges will be filed.
No one on the board can remember a supervisor resigning for personal reasons. The last to step down was Wilma Chan, who left to take a seat in the Assembly from 2000 to 2006; she was re-elected to the board in 2010.
Supervisors must vote at Tuesday's board meeting to officially recognize Lockyer's resignation, and then they will have 60 days to appoint a replacement to serve until her term expires in 2014. If they don't act within that period, Gov. Jerry Brown would have the prerogative to do so.
Board President Nate Miley declined to name any candidates, but said Lockyer suggested someone when she and Miley spoke before Tuesday's board meeting. During that conversation, Miley had suggested two options to Lockyer: recover her health by taking an unpaid leave of absence, or resign. "The status quo is unacceptable," he said he told her.
The continuing revelations and being exposed to the drama associated with her private life were "beginning to get to me," Miley said.
He said he told Lockyer: "I have my demons. We all have our stuff. But you have to take care of yourself."
Lockyer told him she was considering her choices, and Miley later in the week consulted with county counsel Donna Ziegler in case Lockyer chose to resign.
But her decision still came as a surprise Friday.
Fellow Supervisor Keith Carson said he saw no sign she would step down when he last saw her at Tuesday's board meeting.
After the meeting, Lockyer had spoken one on one with advocates who had pleaded with supervisors to reinstate a grant for the Centro De Juventud in Oakland, a nonprofit that serves Latino youths. Lockyer promised to follow up with the group.
She stayed until the end of a long board retreat, which ended at 5 p.m., Carson said.
From the start of her 2010 term as supervisor until 5 p.m. Tuesday, he said, "I found her to be a pretty dedicated board member. It did seem like she had a passion for public service."
It was a contrast to the image that emerged since the scandal erupted in February, Carson noted.
That was echoed in a statement issued on behalf of the board shortly before 6 p.m. Friday.
"We respect Nadia's decision to place her own health and the well-being of her child and her family before her career as a county supervisor," the statement said. "Our thoughts now turn to supporting our colleague as she addresses the personal issues she has cited in her resignation letter."

From F.A.Q
My server and device are on different subnets:
Per the DLNA protocol (which uses UDP broadcast packets), the server and device must be on the same subnet. The easiest way to check is if you can ping the device from the server (a successful ping typically means same subnet, at least for home networks). This issue should only really happen if you have multiple routers or managed switches in your network (in which case you'll need to bridge your routers together). If you only have a single router/switch, then you incorrectly set a manual IP address on at least one of your devices leading to a sub net mismatch.
My solution, was.
- To set up an Remote NFS (network file server) on the network were my video files were located.
- To set up an local PMS (playstation Media Server) in vmware workstation / vmware player.
- Set up an VPN server on the remote network, then connect to it on my local network.
- then mount the NTF file storage on my local PMS.
And i could play videos thats located remotely on an server, on my playstation 3 located at home. (ill create an more detailed guide to how to do this on my blog, when i got the time for it.)
To-do list
- Configure the VPN-client on the PMS server, so the setup is portable.
- turn the PS3 Media server into an portable USB stick, so its suitable for travel.

Palliative Care Center
Hospice Care
In this article
Hospice Settings Vary
Many patients receive hospice care in the familiarity of their own home, where friends and family can visit freely. A relative or friend usually serves as the primary caregiver. But patients can also receive care at hospice centers, hospitals, nursing homes, and other long-term care facilities.
Once you enter hospice, an interdisciplinary hospice team will develop an individualized care plan for your pain management and symptom control. Hospice staff will check on you regularly to assess your condition and provide services. A member of the hospice team is on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Hospice services typically include:
- A doctor's medical care, either from your own doctor or a doctor connected with the hospice program
- Regular home care visits from nurses to monitor your condition and maintain your comfort and care
- Home health aide and homemaker services to help with your personal needs, including bathing, dressing, cleaning, and cooking
- Chaplain services for you and your loved ones
- Social work and counseling services
- Medications to relieve pain and control symptoms
- Medical equipment and supplies
- Dietary counseling
- Physical, speech, and occupational therapy
- Volunteer support to help your loved ones
- Bereavement counseling for your loved ones
Setting Goals for Hospice Care
What is a "good death"? The question may be startling, but it may not be as hard to answer as it seems. For example, many people yearn to avoid a painful death, to make amends and say good-bye, and to have family and friends recognize their life in its fullness and meaning.
Ultimately, the definition of a good death is highly personal. However, in a 2000 study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, Karen E. Steinhauser, PhD, and her colleagues interviewed patients, family members, and health care workers to uncover the elements of a good death.
While stressing there is no "right way to die," Steinhauser and colleagues identified six themes that contribute to a good death:
- Pain and symptom management. Patients wanted reassurance that pain, extreme shortness of breath, and other frightening symptoms would be well-controlled.
- Clear decision-making. Patients didn't want to feel disregarded, nor did they want decisions to be made in a state of crisis. They felt empowered when they could communicate with their doctors and make clear decisions and treatment choices.
- Preparation for death. Patients sought ways to prepare for the end of life. They wanted to know what to expect during the course of their illness, and they wished to plan their wills, funerals, and obituaries.
- Completion. Patients emphasized the deep importance of spirituality or meaningfulness at the end of life. "Completion includes not only faith issues, but also life review, resolving conflicts, spending time with family and friends, and saying good-bye," according to the researchers.
- Contributing to others. Patients wanted to help others by bestowing gifts, time, or knowledge. For example, many dying people felt an urgency to share important life lessons.
- Affirmation of the whole person. Patients wanted to be affirmed as "a unique and whole person," the researchers write. Their relatives also wanted health care professionals to see the whole person. "Family members were comforted by and spoke with great respect about those who did not treat their loved ones as a 'disease,' but understood them in the context of their lives, values, and preferences," the researchers state.
Since people have individual definitions of a good death, talk to your hospice team about your own vision and how it can be achieved.
