text: As a sign of the times be advised. I am on the brink of losing a large high-end landmark property to TruGreen LandCare because their company is in bad shape, they really want the account I service and are super desperate for work. When I saw the proposal myself I had to laugh but at the same point my blood starting boiling. I won't talk exact numbers but let's just say I bid against them for a sum greater than 30k in spring 2008 and got the contract for the whole nine yards(cutting, fert. treatments, bed-edging, mulch, tree trimming, irrigation maint. etc.). Last week, unknown to me because they already do lawn care for this customer at other locations, they bid one quarter of what they did last year and claim they will provide better service and more frequently. I can't even compete with that. This is a multi-acre property and after I did the math they can't be cutting for any more than $65 per cut and mulch will be installed for $12 per yard. This is also after I have gained several customers and compliments from this account has been in numerous publications for it's beauty and precise maintenance. So I just wanted to vent for all of my frustration and do not wish this happens to any of you. All of this is happening because a particular public office needs to shave it's budget 20% and do not care that they will be sacrificing quality because of it.

Poor Man's Petrus
Only winemaking impresario Christian Moueix would dare to characterize a property as great as Chateau Trotanoy as a "Poor Man's Petrus." (Both are great wines from Pomerol, a wine-producing region in Bordeaux.)
On the other hand, no one knows better than Mr. Moueix, since he owns them both, and a lot more besides, including other properties in Pomerol (La Fleur-Petrus, Chateau Magdelaine, Chateau Lagrange), a negociant business and the Napa winery, Dominus.
I could only guess that the charismatic Mr. Moueix knew that at least a few of the Trotanoys we tasted yesterday at Benoit would soon belie the truth of his words.
After all, he'd come bearing bottles of legendary wines like the 1995 and 2008. And, as he said, a determination to make Trotanoy better known.
"Trotanoy has long been in the shadow of Petrus," explained Mr. Moueix about his mission.
"It's like the late Jess Jackson had both Curlin and Rachel Alexandria, but not in the same vintage." (A charming reference to Mr. Jackson and his great race horses, I thought.)
Mr. Moueix was in charge of Petrus for many, many years. He took control of the famed property at a very young age back in the '70s and only retired a few years ago.
Now that his son is overseeing Petrus, he has time to promote the other Moueix-owned properties, like Trotanoy.
We tasted Trotanoy vintages in pairs (2008 and 2007, 2005 with 2006 and finally 2001 coupled with 2000) and the star was immediately apparent: the 2008 was remarkably expressive aromatically and in the mouth, prodigious.
"This may be the best Trotanoy we've ever made," said Mr. Moueix.
The 2005 took second place, showing excellent concentration and richness. "I am not a great taster but I find violets on the nose," said Mr. Moueix about the wine, showing his self-deprecating charm.
He told a few stories in between wines, and let fall the fact that he was the first to crop-thin his vineyards, back in 1973. (Who knew?)
And he spoke of his ability — or inability — to predict vintages. In a highly quotable fashion. "In wine, as in life, we know the truth too late."
More wines were poured with lunch, most memorably, the 1995 Trotanoy.
"A classic wine," said Mr. Moueix. "It is perfectly balanced." (It was.)
Then, as if to emphasize this point, he did a small jig. "I am sorry to be so enthusiastic about my own wines; I can't help it," Mr. Moueix said with a laugh.
Trotanoy may or may not be second to Petrus, but Christian Moueix is second to none.

Manchasol 1&2 CSP Project
- Reference: 20080578
- Release date: 10 August 2009
ACS Actividades de Construcción y Servicios SA
The project proposed to the Bank consists of a concentrated solar power (CSP) project of capacity of 50 MWe to be built in Ciudad Real, in the Castilla-La Mancha region of Spain, at an elevation of around 700 m above sea level.
The project concerns the development, construction and operation of large–scale CSP plant, with a capacity of 50 MWe. The plant will apply parabolic solar trough technology, as in Andasol 1 & 2, and Extresol 1, all projects being built by the main EPC contractor that will build Manchasol I. The plant will incorporate a molten-salts heat storage system, based on the one used in Andasol 1. The collectors to be used are Senertrough type, which has been tested in the Plataforma Solar de Almeria (PSA), although for shorter loops than those installed in the plant.
Up to EUR 225 million.
Estimated to be around EUR 746 million.
The project consists of three components: two CSP plants and a common overhead connection tie-line to the transmission grid. The CSP plants fall under Annex II of Directive 85/337/EEC, as amended by 97/11/EC and 2003/35/EC, whilst the connection tie-line falls under Annex I of the aforementioned Directive, requiring an EIA to be performed. Two EIAs were thus performed: one for Manchasol 1, and the other for Manchasol 2 and the connection tie-line. The outcome of both EIA procedures was favourable and the environmental authorisations were awarded in May 2008 and in October 2008, respectively. Details of the environmental assessment procedures applied and any potential impact on sites of nature conservation will be reviewed during appraisal.
Neither the promoter nor the special purpose companies are subject to EU Procurement Directives. Suitable procurement procedures, including an appropriate selection of works, goods and services offered at competitive prices should be applied in the project's best interests. Details will be verified during appraisal.
Signed - 21/07/2011.
Before financing approval by the Board of Directors, and before loan signature, projects are under appraisal and negotiation. The data provided on this page is therefore indicative and cannot be considered to represent official EIB policy (see also the Explanatory notes).

Golf Fraud CallsUPDATED 6:38 PM MDT Jun 20, 2014
Target 7 reveals exclusive audio recordings of suspected shady dealings at city golf courses. According to a state audit, under-the-table swaps cost taxpayers big bucksVideo Transcript
6 A-M. TARGET 7 REVEALS EXCLUSIVE AUDIO RECORDINGS OF SUSPECTED SHADY DEALINGS...AT CITY GOLF COURSES. ACCORDING TO A STATE AUDIT.... UNDER-THE-TABLE SWAPS, COST TAXPAYERS BIG BUCKS. REGINA RUIZ SHOWS US HOW. As a taxpayer, you and I, this is unacceptable. CARLOS VILLANUEVA IS IN CHARGE OF CREATING PURCHASE ORDERS FOR THE CITY'S GOLF DIVISION. HE COULDN'T BELIEVE IT WHEN A VENDOR CAME INTO HIS OFFICE, SAYING HE WAS PROMISED HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS IN FREE GOLFING FOR RE-STRIPING A GOLF COURSE PARKING LOT. This was not approved and I never created a purchase order for it and we had no knowledge of it. VILLANUEVA CALLED UP THE GOLF COURSE SUPERINTENDENT DAVID SALAS TO SEE IF HE KNEW ABOUT THE UNDER THE TABLE DEAL. VILLANUEVA FELT SOMETHING WASN'T RIGHT, SO HE RECORDED THE CONVERSATION. Villanueva: he said that you Tony and everybody came up with an arrangement for the Accu Stripe but that I need to give him a couple of cards so that they can go play golf, they already played some golf, but so that we can keep track of this $672, so how should I break up the cards? David Salas, Golf Course Superintendent: I thought we had already taken care of that, let me talk to Tony and get his phone number for me and we'll give him a call. Giving away free goods on the taxpayers dime is unacceptable THE OFFICE OF INTERNAL AUDIT REVIEWED THE GOLF COURSE MANAGEMENT AND CONCESSIONAIRES TRADE ARRANGEMENTS INCLUDING THE STRIPING DEAL AND THE RECORDED PHONE CONVERSATION. THE AUDIT SHOWS THE TRANSACTION WAS OFF THE BOOKS WITH NO I-R-S FORM DOCUMENTING THE VALUE RECEIVED. We want to make sure they are licensed, bonded and not hold the city or tax payers liable for anything that may have gone wrong, THE REPORT SHOWS SOMETHING WAS DONE WRONG. It wasn't even done correctly, they didn't have the right arrows, the directional arrows. BUT, THERE WAS NO ACCOUNTABILITY, BECAUSE THERE WASN'T DOCUMENTATION OR A PURCHASE ORDER. Mr. Salas says his department takes the concerns raised in the audit seriously, including those about the barter system. When it comes to the parking lot striping trade-off, Salas says the department has taken corrective action to address it, back to you.

California is celebrating 100 years of commercial rice production this year, marking the anniversary of a commodity that has evolved to become one of the state's most important agricultural exports.
Farmers began experimenting with rice growing during the Gold Rush more than 160 years ago, but it wasn't until 1912 that the first commercial production started in the Sacramento Valley.
California has since become the nation's largest producer of sticky rice, with much of the high-quality product shipped to Japan and other Asian countries. The state's growers ship nearly 5 billion pounds of rice each year as far away as Europe and the Middle East.
Most sushi in the U.S. is made with California rice.
Rice was the state's fifth largest agricultural export in 2010, the most recent year available.

A casino proposal four years ago was unsuccessful, in part because of heavy community opposition.
LeVan said he will submit a new proposal to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board by April 7. His new slots and table games parlor would be much smaller than his proposal in 2006. It would be in an existing building and would be farther from town and closer to the Maryland border, where many prospective casino patrons live.
With pro-casino and no-casino camps disputing the most basic claims of the other, an undercurrent of division snakes through this historic area, which depends on more than a million visitors a year to its Civil War battlefield but which also has seen unemployment more than double in the last five years.
Yet public opinion was only part of the reason the 2006 proposal failed. The Gaming Control Board's decision was not an up-or-down vote on the suitability of the Gettysburg project, but rather a more complicated selection of the "best projects" among five proposals from around the state competing for two licenses. The same is true this time, with at least four proposals competing for a single license.
This time, LeVan would refurbish the Eisenhower Hotel and Conference Center, about a mile's drive south of the Gettysburg National Military Park.
The project would bring much-needed jobs to Adams County, LeVan said, and, if other casinos in Pennsylvania are a guide, provide millions to local government. That has prompted some who opposed the 2006 plan to change their minds this time.
It's not enough, or necessarily true, said Susan Star Paddock, 65, a social worker who four years ago collected more than 65,000 signatures in opposition to the first plan as the leader of the group No Casino Gettysburg. "We don't think it's economic development," Paddock said. Any jobs created will be offset by jobs lost as businesses close because residents would be gambling their money instead of spending it elsewhere, she said.
Paddock also said a casino would repel the people the area relies upon for its livelihood: heritage tourists. She cited studies that indicate heritage tourists abhor commercialization of historical sites.
A consortium of preservation groups including the Civil War Preservation Trust and the National Parks Conservation Association has opposed the new plan, writing in a Jan. 26 letter to LeVan that "a gambling facility at Gettysburg unavoidably conflicts with the essential meaning of this place in American history."
However, the crowds of visitors to the battlefield have been dwindling steadily for nearly a decade. "We need to diversify tourism," said Jeff Kline, 38, an Iraq war veteran and a spokesman for Pro Casino Adams County. "Folks here are in desperate need to see some change. People need jobs. Too many businesses have closed. ... Too many attractions have closed. ... We can't keep going the way we are."Preservation is a red herring, said Kline, who noted that the Eisenhower Hotel does not sit on historically significant ground. As for heritage tourists, he said that a majority of them are already offended by Gettysburg and its souvenir shops and restaurants. "Heritage tourists only stay on the battlefield; they don't want to spend time in stores and restaurants," Kline said. "They want it to look like 1863."
Business owners are split on the idea of a casino.
Barbara Shultz, 43, who runs the Aces High hobby shop and bed-and-breakfast with her husband, Steve, said, "Other casinos advertise heavily in this area. I know they're going to be advertising Gettysburg and casino in the same sentence in a 50-mile radius."
Shultz said she has two teenage girls and "I tell them their reputation is so important."
"That's how I feel about our community," she said. "We have to watch our reputation."
Tommy Gilbert, 62, who runs a hobby shop on the other side of town, said entrepreneurs first made Gettysburg a successful tourist destination with a privately owned visitor center, wax museum and amusement park. "They created a fanfare of things for tourists to enjoy in Gettysburg, but those things have slowly eroded away," he said.
A casino would help "bring revenue back in, which we desperately need, and maybe some tax relief," Gilbert said.
"We all want to preserve our battlefield," said Gilbert, who noted that his great-great-grandfather was a drummer boy for Adams County Company K. "Not everybody's a heritage tourist; we have families that come here," and they want other things to do, he said. "People that want to go to the battlefield will. There's only one Gettysburg."
A Hanover Evening Sun poll of Adams County residents in January found more than 42 percent in favor of the casino, with 35 percent opposed and 22 percent saying they had no opinion.
Gettysburg's status as a Civil War shrine means opinions from elsewhere cannot be ignored.
This month, a group of re-enactors sitting at a table outside O'Rorkes Eatery and Spirits on Steinwehr Avenue had divergent views.
Samuel Martin, 56, of Shippensburg, said gambling holds no appeal for him, and a casino would have no impact on his activities at Gettysburg. His wife, Lisa, 48, noted a casino "might bring jobs in."
Sean Lynch, of Alexandria, Va., said, "I grew up in Atlantic City. I know what kind of crime and trash that came with it. It would be the same here."
Across the street, Pat Phillips, 64, of Greenbelt, Md., sat on a bench checking messages on her cell phone. Phillips said she has been coming to Gettysburg for 20 years. She said that she's a gambler but that she would not go to a casino in Gettysburg. "I love Gettysburg," Phillips said. "I think this town really should stay historical."
On the battlefield, opinions among tourists were sharper.
"Absolutely not! No!" shouted Kathy Tull, 54, of Marcus Hook, Delaware County, as she looked out over the field where Pickett made his charge. "This is sacred ground. ... I don't care if it's going to be near the park or not."
Tom Beck, 66, a city planner from Forest Grove, Ore., said, "This is a sacred place. I find casinos low-life, demeaning and commercial."
"Desecration is a strong word," said Ben Richardson, 20, of Havre de Grace, Md. "But history and gambling don't really mix. ... They shouldn't, at least."
Paddock, the leader of No Casino Gettysburg, takes strength from that sentiment and from past success as she musters for a new fight.
"We will not stand for it!" she said with fervor. "We will do everything in our power to ensure there will never be a casino in Gettysburg or close to it."
By law, the Gaming Control Board is required to consider a variety of factors, with some emphasis on job creation and which project is likely to generate the most money for the state. The battle for the one "resort" casino license available might have less to do with public opinion and more to do with numbers.LeVan said he expects the Gaming Control Board to see "the best numbers of any applicant" in Gettysburg. The Eisenhower Hotel, which has seen business drop by half over the last decade and had an average occupancy rate of 34 percent last year, will compete with posh resorts that draw more than 250,000 visitors a year, including Nemacolin Woodlands Resort in Fayette County, whose patrons come primarily from the same Baltimore-Washington market Gettysburg is aiming for.
Many Gettysburg businesses are wary of enlisting too deeply in the coming fight.
Even such a die-hard as Gilbert said, "No matter what happens, we still have to get up in the morning and say, 'Good morning, neighbor.'"

"Doc" Mumford is, well, an unconventional psychologist.
He's the type of therapist who tells his clients, "Sometimes it's best to be able to keep a few things to ourselves." He's not averse to gossiping about his patients' problems. He even falls in love with a woman needing help with chronic fatigue syndrome. Sessions usually only consist of Doc smiling inscrutably as his patients spill their guts - that is, if he lets them stay. He's been known to tell them to leave early if he gets bored.
But with all of that, he's become - in only 41/2 months - the most popular and successful therapist in the bucolic town that oddly bears his name.
Too bad, then, that he's not even a real psychologist.
That's the central conceit of "Mumford," a charming fable by Lawrence Kasdan, writer / director of "The Big Chill" and "Grand Canyon." Everyone, according to this film, just needs someone to listen to them.
"Mumford" is utterly charming despite, or maybe because of, its slow pace. It takes forever - actually, about 45 minutes - to find out that Doc (Loren Dean) isn't a doctor at all. But during that long introduction, the audience grows to care about Doc's patients and sees that he is actually doing some good.
Those patients include Althea Brockett (Mary McDonnell), who tries to fill the emotional void in her life by voraciously buying mail-order products; Henry Follett (Pruitt Taylor Vince), a pharmacist whose self-esteem is so non-existent that he doesn't even star in his own sexual fantasies; Skip Skipperton (Jason Lee), the lonely billionaire who invented a modem and employs most of the town; and Sophie Crisp (Hope Davis), a sharp woman suffering from chronic fatigue.
These are all good people who simply need a little help and a sympathetic ear, which Doc is more than willing to provide. As shown in his has-to-be-seen-to-be-believed back story, he understands "what it's like to want to leave a problem behind." Of course, Doc is found out eventually, but not before making a difference in the lives of his patients.
The genial film is enhanced by the strength of its ensemble cast. Quirky independent film stars like Davis and Lee mesh well with more familiar faces like Alfre Woodard (as Doc's friend Lily) and David Paymer (a rival psychiatrist). Dean gives an affable performance as the mysterious Doc Mumford and anchors the film well.

Sandra Sanchez, Immigrants Voice Program Director
Fall 2009
What's on your mind these days regarding immigration?
One thing that it's in my mind is this apparent naïveté on the part of a lot of people, thinking that because the Democrats are in the majority now and we have a Democratic president, that we are ultimately going to have a just immigration reform passed this year. Well, no. I've got news for everybody.
It's not happening like that. Sadly, I have to say, the Democrats have adopted a lot of the same ideas. They are not using the same dehumanizing or even abusive language many Republicans used but they are using the same ideas bounced around by the GOP in recent years regarding immigration reform.
It seems to me this democracy is working only every four years, for a short period of time. And then people get complacent, thinking that, "Oh, it's going to be OK because I chose the right candidate." No, that's not the way democracy works. It'll be equivalent to say that because they are Democrats, we should extend them a blank check without really doing an analysis to see if their legislative proposals really respond to the reality we're seeing in our day-to-day work in our communities, with our friends and neighbors.
Also, I've noticed that mainstream people still don't believe the bad things that are happening—home round-ups and abuses in detention centers—until they happen to somebody close to them. It's like they're seeing these things as faceless issues versus something real.
How to address both? The political naïveté can be addressed by getting policy updates and analysis on regular basis to our allies and supporters to work with congress members. Immigration reform is not an automatic thing.
Democrats will not offer a much better deal. What they're proposing so far is not very different than what was discussed in 2007, which we didn't support, and it's actually getting worse. In regard to the reality of the issues, we need to get the human stories out so people can put a face to the issues.
These days, a lot of people's top concern is economics. Critics ask why immigrants should be able to come to the U.S. and receive benefits from taxpayers. People are obviously hurting a lot in this economy. How do you address the question of economics vis-à-vis immigrants and immigration reform?
Immigrants are not receiving benefits from other taxpayers, even though they should because they are taxpayers too. I've heard allies and supporters say: "Yes, we support immigrant rights, but can we afford it when the economy is so bad?" I would need a couple hours to better answer this question, but in a very simplistic way I would say that all people—and I mean all—are consumers and producers. Immigrants are consumers and producers too. And since we are in a recession right now, you need people spending. Immigrants spend money, and they spend it now.
Immigrants are also very hard working, so they're in their most productive years, and they are very young. Therefore, they are mostly contributing to this economy. Finally, typically they have not been part of the formal financial system, meaning their savings were not lost. They were not investing in the stock market. They have savings to spend. Where do we want them to spend this money? Here, or somewhere else?
More importantly, in terms of production and consumption, they are very active. Why get rid of them? There's some hypocrisy we are talking about here. The government is not really coming forward with, and society in general is not accepting it because they believe what anti-immigrant groups have been saying, that is: immigrants are paying taxes. There are more than $560 billion in the Earnings Suspense File of the Social Security Administration, most of which is believed to be contributions of undocumented workers to this system alone.
Do we want to stop that? Or do we want to regularize that? People are afraid that if we regularize that, if we give legal status to these undocumented workers who have been contributing for, in many cases, decades to this system and who cannot claim one penny out of that. The claim is they will claim those benefits, but the truth is that they can't. If they get a legal status, eventually they will be able to claim benefits but from the time of their legal status on.
So immigrants represent a double win to this country. We are winning in the sense that they have contributed already as taxpayers, they have contributed to the economy as workers, and they have contributed to the economy as consumers. Do we want to lose that? No. I truly believe that if these persons are given the opportunity to regularize their status, they will be able to buy homes. They will be able to buy more cars. They will be able to send their children to institutions of higher learning. And that will definitely be a plus to the economy. It will help us turn around this recession faster than if we don't.
We need to remember that we have been buying into the lies that immigrants are costly to this economy. Maybe in the short term they represent a cost but that's because the whole system takes time to catching up. The minute they get here, they start paying taxes, they start contributing.
The catching up from the Federal government to local governments means that there is a cost to local governments at the beginning. But in the long term, after 10 years, and more so as years go by, they are net contributors, more than the average American by about 15-20% more. That is significant! So this is my very simplistic answer to that question.
Wouldn't even critics agree that immigration reform would eliminate the shadow economy which exploits undocumented workers while skirting taxes?
Yes, and then you can plan the budget. You can use more wisely the money that is right now suspended in the Social Security administration, money that can't be used as it is because they cannot connect it to any worker.
Why keep in limbo these hundreds of billions of dollars, with more coming, just because we're not giving them a chance to get a legal identity?
And by the way, having a legal identity is a human right. So, whether you go by the economic stand or you go by the human rights stand, giving a legal status to undocumented immigrants is the right thing to do.
Would you please talk about how the Immigrant Safety Network (ISNET) has been a model for organizing? What's currently going on with ISNET?
Two things are happening. We are providing a training next week for legal volunteers, meaning attorneys and paralegals, to get the proper training, to know what to do in case of another workplace raid. And that is OK.
However, like anything with immigration, which is one of the most active and rapidly changing policy areas in the U.S., things are changing. Now the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) strategy will be that instead of doing workplace raids, the Federal government is going to be doing more law enforcement through E-verify.
E-verify has been a pilot program—I don't know if you can keep calling something that started 10 years ago a "pilot"—to verify documents for workers to ensure that they have the "right" to work—which is wrong to begin with. After IRCA in 1985—the so called amnesty—the human right to work became a privilege! That's beyond me, but it's the reality This e-verify system is unfortunately plagued with errors. It is believed that it may have as many as 68% of mistakes in the database. That's extremely high. Who would be the most affected by E-verify? Besides immigrants—legally present or not—all workers will b affected particularly women, who may change names due to their marital status.
I ran into a lot of trouble when I remarried. I went from Sandra Sanchez-Miranda to Sandra Sanchez-Naert. This fact created all sorts of problems for me, from changing my driver's license to changing my passport to buying a plane ticket. Every time I go to check my baggage in, I ran into trouble.
If I move from this job to another job, it's very likely that there will be a glitch in my name between E-verify's information reported by Immigration and the Social Security Administration as they cross-reference their
databases. If they are not exactly right, that computer is not going to say:
"Oh, this woman remarried in such and such a year, she's the same person, just her name is different." No, it's going to report a "discrepancy." And most employers will be discouraged to proceed with the hiring process. That's a very subtle and hard to prove discrimination, but it has happened to my family members.
People might say, "I don't care. I am a citizen." Well, I'm a citizen too. And you'd better care. Especially if you are a woman, because immigrants and women are the populations I can foresee being hugely impacted.
Another example: in my sister's documents, her legal permanent resident's card doesn't have a dash in her last name. She got married, kept her maiden name, then added her husband's name with a dash. Well, in the immigration documents, it doesn't have a dash because they are used to Latin American names having two last names, what we know here as one last name. There we use two last names. So they are used to it. So in Immigration's computer system it's not a problem.
But the Social Security Administration, for example, they put the dash. So her SS card has the dash, but her legal permanent resident card doesn't. The system doesn't recognize that. So the system believes that these are two different people. Now, she's been having a hell of a time trying to get a job because of that minute discrepancy.
I would say employers in Iowa are pretty good. Not so in Arizona. In Iowa, they give it a fair try. They say, "Why don't you go back to the Social Security Administration to correct this because the computer is telling me there's a discrepancy?" But there's no discrepancy. It's just a dash! "Well, go change it." The SSA doesn't recognize that as any kind of mistake or problem. "That's the name you gave us. That's the card. There's no mistake here. Go to Immigration so they can put a dash." Then immigration says,
"No, we don't have to make any changes because your name is correct!"
Correcting such a discrepancy is a nightmare if you eventually would want to go through the legal proceedings to get a completely new card. It will take months and hundreds of dollars. It might mean you'd be unemployed for months. That's not good!
What's ISNET doing in regards to this?
ISNET is educating and organizing communities that have been getting ready to respond in case of a raid, to now invest their energies in communicating with their congress members to say E-verify is not the answer. We really need comprehensive and just immigration reform in which all workers have the same rights.
Get rid of this stupid thing about employer sanctions. In reality they are not sanctioning the employer, they are sanctioning employees. They are not sanctioning only undocumented workers, they're sanctioning all workers.
And at some point it's going to catch up with everybody. Why do we have to go through that for 10-15 years until they realize that it's not a good idea?
They keep saying that they are going to correct the problems in the system. But the problem is not the system. The problem is the idea of making work a privilege, instead of recognizing it as a human right! That's where the problem is. We need to help them see that E-verify and employers sanctions are not the solution. It will be more of the same.
At the core of this problem is the idea that work is a privilege. Why would work be a privilege? Why? I need to pose that question to Congress. Why do you think that work is a privilege? Why an employer needs to ensure that you can enjoy that privilege? Will you tell me how else am I supposed to support my family if I don't work? A privilege is something beyond what a basic human need is, isn't it? It's like a luxury. When did we make work a luxury? It's like saying that life is a privilege.
There's something fundamentally wrong with the idea of making work a privilege. It was wrong back in 1985, and it is wrong now. We're talking about something that took place more than 20 years ago, and we haven't corrected it. We've made it worse. True, at the beginning it was impacting mostly undocumented immigrants, but how does that story go? First they were coming for the Jews, and I didn't say anything. Then they were coming for whoever was related however indirectly to Jews, and I didn't say anything. And then one night they came for me, and there was no one to speak for me.
Well we as a society were not speaking for those workers, those undocumented immigrants back then. And we're not speaking now. Now this wrongful concept is catching up with us, all of us, citizens or not, foreign-born or not. It's catching up with all of us because we were not speaking loud enough back then. We need to speak louder, saying no. Everify is wrong!
ISNET will be directing its energy towards that, making public the fact that now, the government is not doing workplace raids anymore, it's doing home raids. And those are very silent. They are not getting any publicity, and yet people are disappearing. And their family members don't know where on earth they are. And as we saw with the story of Mrs. Zelaya (see http://www.afsc.org/iowa/ht/a/GetDocumentAction/i/81400), she was one of those persons who had been raided in her home, was deported, tried to come back and lost her life!
These are the connections we need to be making. It's happening close, it's hitting home. Now they are knocking at our door, and we need to direct our energies there. Yes, ISNET is in need of rapidly changing strategies to deal with what's happening now.
You spoke earlier about employer sanctions hurting workers rather than employers. Why is that?
The original concept of employer sanctions was to discourage employers from hiring undocumented workers. Well, technically, they are not hiring undocumented workers. What happened was that people were forced to use false documents in order to work. So at the end, whichever way you look at it, for a company, a fine, even if it is a stiff fine, that is a write-off for the company. It's a cost they can pass on to the consumer.
But for a worker unable to work…who's been sanctioned here, the employer or the worker? I am a citizen. Let's say that I leave my job at AFSC and go look for employment somewhere else. Because of that little dash I have in my name now, and the use of E-verify, I may have trouble getting work.
Who's being punished? A $1200 fine for an employer is nothing. For a worker not being able to work is huge. These are not employer sanctions. These are workers sanctions.
Anything else to add?
Please do not be complacent. We really need to pay attention to what Congress is doing and what both parties are proposing, using a magnifying glass. Hear beyond the words they are using, and look over these legislative proposals. So far they are not good. What we've heard is bad, and we can expect worse to come!

Savannah Stern came to shoot for High Speed Magazine and I was excited to work with her. Honestly I don't remember exactly how she and I connected up but I am very glad that I did. Savannah is one of the only "Native American" models I've worked with, and she brought a very stunning presence to the set.
Savannah Stern is certainly a no nonsense PROFESSIONAL model! She's been in numerous magazines and has a huge following in both the mainstream modeling world and the adult industry. Savannah is a tall and extremely well built woman from head to toe! All of that and she is still a great deal of fun on the set!
Savannah can really talk shit with the best of them and she is a laugh riot. Sometimes models who are so fun to work with are difficult to work with. I mean really how can you get a shot when you're constantly laughing! I guess that's a great problem to have on set. 😀

Demantra USA Based Companies and SOX Compliance
By JeffG-Oracle on Mar 28, 2012
A USA based company is assessing Demantra Trade Promotion Management (TPM) capability. It appears that SOX
is necessary in their case due to the nature of what TPM does and the necessity for auditability. Do we
have any detail on SOX compliance for Demantra?
SOX compliance with regards to IT:
1. Requires auditing of data changes done by who, what, when
a. Audit trail profiles can be set up for key financial series and view them in audit trail reports
b. One functionality we do not have which typically is asked for is user login history. We have only
active sessions, history is not available.
2. Segregation of duties
a. With respect to TPM, you could have deduction and financial analyst for settlement be different
from promotion creator, promotion approver or sales team.
b. Budget Approver for funds can be different from funds consumer.
c. Promotion creator can be different than promotion approver
d. For a US customer you may have to write some custom scripts to capture promotion status change
and produce an external report as part of compliance.
One additional requirement is transparency of forward commitments entered into with retailers / distributors

Paul Davids' documentary The Sci-Fi Boys is the kind of mediocre effort that makes its way onto DVDs as supplement material, although finding an appropriate special edition to include it with would be tough, as its focus isn't limited to any specific film or filmmaker. Davids, an admitted "sci-fi boy" filmmaker, spotlights other directors like Peter Jackson, Stephen Sommers, John Landis, Roger Corman and William Malone, all who grew up as fan boys before acquiring their own followers. Of course, with all the attention Davids gives to himself (the photo above shows him on the left as a young model maker), he could include the film as an extra on one of his own films, except that it wouldn't quite fit with his '97 debut Timothy Leary's Dead.
In interviews, the filmmakers gush about the influence of Ray Harryhausen, William Castle, George Pal, and the invention of the Super 8 camera. Mostly, though, the doc is a showcase of Forrest J. Ackerman, founder of the magazine Famous Monsters of Filmland and credited coiner of the term "sci-fi". This publication, which no longer exists, but which paved the way for Fangoria and SFX and others, is highlighted as the catalyst for many filmmaking careers, particularly for great creature designers and effects artists such as Rick Baker, Steve Johnson and Dennis Muren.
Despite the somewhat misleading title, The Sci-Fi Boys isn't much concerned with the literary roots of cinema's science fiction genre. In fact, if anything, the film only seems to concentrate on the more specific sci-fi horror hybrid. It too heavily praises the corny pictures we associate with Ed Wood and "Mystery Science Theater 3000" by aiming at the kid inside us. Of course, Joe Dante and Tim Burton (neither of whom make appearances here) have been doing this more appreciably for twenty years.
The Sci-Fi Boys doesn't work as even a broad look at sci-fi film history -- other than a reference by George Lucas in archive footage, there is no mention of Georges Méliès -- nor does it work completely as a tribute to Ackerman thanks to all the additional figures represented. All it does is confirm the notion that today's blockbusters are just rich cousins of the B-movies of the past, and also, by displaying some of its subjects' early childhood productions, which unabashedly copied Harryhausen and Pal and James Whale, it unintentionally justifies the existence of fan films now widely available on the internet.
A discussion of make-up and model effects being outmoded by CGI, addressed slightly though sufficiently, is the most interesting topic The Sci-Fi Boys touches on. Baker and the rest worry a bit about their roles in the future of visual effects, but never appear too bitter, especially since they credit computers as being a big help in their own work with advances like motion control. The doc also includes some old footage of Steven Spielberg talking about original plans for Jurassic Park to use stop-motion animated dinosaurs made by Phil Tippett, who, when replaced by the better-looking computer effects, told the director, "I think I'm extinct."

Lady Pios cruise past Crowley; Gents top Notre Dame
CROWLEY – You know you're having a good night shooting the basketball when your coach is the only person stopping you from scoring.
Or so it seemed Tuesday when Notre Dame's Alex Miller poured in a game-high 24 points to help lead the Lady Pios to a 60-32 blowout victory over the Crowley Ladies.
The Lady Pios improved to 23-5 overall and 8-1 in District 4-3A play with the victory. Crowley fell to 15-9 and 6-3.
"Alex really played well tonight," said ND coach Nolan Theriot of Miller. "Her biggest defender tonight was me. The only thing that stopped her from shooting was me.
"Actually, I told her to keep shooting in the second half. She was one of the only ones knocking them down so I let her go."
Miller connected on five 3-pointers on the night, including three in the second half.
Her contribution was much more than that, however.
"I think she came full circle tonight," said Theriot. "She played an outstanding game defensively and offensively, she did everything we wanted her to do."
Sam Lyons and Gabbie Romeo led the charge for the Lady Pios in the first half by combining for 12 points in the opening frame to push Notre Dame's lead to 17-7.
Romero knocked down two 3-pointers in the opening frame while Lyons hit three midrange jumpers.
"When Gabbie knocked down the first 3-pointer to start the game, I knew we were going to be okay," said Theriot. "And Sam really kind of put the game on her shoulders early on. I thought her three buckets were really the biggest thing to start the whole thing off."
Notre Dame took a 27-12 lead at the half before Crowley rallied to cut the advantage to 29-22 early in the third quarter.
But the Ladies' rally ended there.
The Lady Pios finished the quarter on a 15-3 run to take a 44-25 cushion and the only thing in doubt was how many points they would finish with.
"In the third quarter, they (Crowley) cut the lead to seven but we didn't panic," said Theriot. "We continued to run our offense and we knocked down shots."
The Lady Pios outscored the Ladies 16-7 in the fourth quarter.
Romero and Lyons each pitched in 10 points in the victory while Liddy Rothermel and Madelyn LeJeune each had six. Elise LeBeouf rounded out the scoring with four points.
Tiara Dugar paced the Ladies with 13 points and Alanna Plummer had eight. Mercedes Rogers added six points, Raven Ardoin had three and Myah Rogers scored two.
The Lady Pios will play host to South Beauregard Friday at 6 p.m. Crowley will be in action at Westlake.
CROWLEY – The Crowley Gents shrugged off a sluggish start and outscored Notre Dame 46-20 in the final three quarters to walk away with a key District 4-3A victory Tuesday evening.
The Gents improved to 14-13 overall and 5-4 in league play with the victory. The Pios fell to 3-24 and 0-9.
Notre Dame jumped out to a 10-6 advantage in the first quarter behind four points from Tre Milstead.
But the Pios were unable to keep that intensity in the second frame and the Gents took advantage by outscoring the Pios 19-7 to take a 25-17 edge.
The Gents followed that up with 21 more points in the third quarter to extend the lead to 46-24. Each team scored just six points in the final frame.
Marcus Williams led the Gents with 12 points ande John Davis and Danny Malbrough each had 10. Andre Mills followed with six points, Charles Onezine and Damon Malbrough each pitched in four points and Leroy Washington, Myan Stevenson and Tiron Foreman each had two.
Milstead had 10 points for the Pios. He was followed by Brice Bandon and Luke Habetz with five points each. Claiton Johnson added three points, Brent Didier, Hunter Meche and Christian Landry each scored two and John Duos had one.

Even though it hasn't been the reviewer's privilege to read other books on electrocardiography written in Spanish, it would appear that Dr. Alvarez Mena has set with the publication of this textbook a pattern for other Spanish authors in the field to follow.
Through his experience as faculty instructor and as chief of the cardiology service of the Department of Medical Pathology at the University Hospital of Habana, Dr. Mena has felt the need of a suitable textbook in Spanish which would present not only what is basic and fundamental but also the new orientations and concepts on the science of electrocardiography. Equipped with adequate and generous training obtained from his teachers, Drs. F. N. Wilson, F. F. Rosenbaum, L. N. Katz, P. D. White and S. A. Levine in this country and Dr. P. D.

2001 Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Gold Capsule #12
Producer: Fritz Haag
Style: Sweet Wine
Grape Type: Riesling
Origin: Germany
Region: Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
2 stars Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - November/December 2002
Black tea, brown spices, sassafras and baked apple set the aromatic theme here. Creamy on entry, this quickly shows its fine teeth of citricity, setting up a fascinating counterpoint. For all of its baked-in richness, there is still a lovely sense of delicacy, enhanced by a subtle spritz of CO2. The finish is billowing and elegant. "I think this is my favorite Auslese today," says Haag, "because it is so very Mosel." 2 stars.

Helmer to direct adaptation of Thompson novel
Marc Rocco will direct an adaptation of Jim Thompson noir novel "The Killer Inside Me."
Robert Weinbach wrote the script, and his Cyclone Prods. will produce with Chris Hanley's Muse Film Prods.
Published in 1952, "The Killer Inside Me" concerns a deputy sheriff in a West Texas town whose kind Everyman demeanor masks his true dark self. He is slowly revealed as a psychotic killer.
Rocco ("Murder in the First") said financing is being finalized for a fall start, subject to casting.
"I loved the idea of filming a beautiful small town and adding an antihero who is right out of the films of the 1970s," Rocco said. "We will put him into a post-9/11 world, and one interesting layer to the script is how much technology has changed the definition of a small town."
Rocco is mobilizing to direct "The Winter Hill Gang," a drama he wrote with David Flowers about the largest gang war in American history, which started in Boston in 1961.
Project was set up several years ago at Paramount, with Tom Cruise and Paula Wagner producing with Marc Frydmann. Rocco is also teamed with Birtu Entertainment's William MacDonald ("Rome") and Vinne Viola on a TV series pilot adaptation of his film "Where the Day Takes You," which Rocco co-wrote and directed in 1993.
Thompson books have been adapted into films including "The Grifters," "The Getaway" and "After Dark, My Sweet."

For only five years have we definitely known that anterior poliomyelitis must be classed among the acute infectious diseases. In 1909 Landsteiner and Popper reported the successful inoculation of monkeys with the disease, using for inoculation material an emulsion of the spinal cord of a patient who had died in the early stages of the disease.
Since then, notably through the researches of Flexner and his associates in this country, and of Landsteiner, of Levaditi, of Kling, Wernstedt and Petterson and of Römer abroad, many additions have been made to our knowledge of the disease. Especially is this true concerning the nature of the virus, the morbid anatomy and histology of the natural as well as the experimental disease, and the routes by which the virus escapes from the body.
Of especial importance has been the announcement by Noguchi and Flexner of the successful cultivation of the causative organism by

WASHINGTON -- Birmingham lawyer Abdul Kallon had a smooth, noncontroversial hearing this afternoon at the U.S. Senate, clearing the way for him to easily win confirmation as a federal judge in the Northern District of Alabama.
Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said he spoke to several lawyers in the Birmingham area about Kallon.
"They all speak universally very highly of his integrity, judgment and legal ability," Sessions said.
With the support of Kallon's home state senators, both Republicans, Kallon's nomination will likely proceed quickly to a vote in committee in about two weeks and the full Senate sometime afterward.
Kallon answered only a handful of questions during the hearing, including whether he would have to recuse himself from certain cases because of a conflict of interest.
Kallon said any cases he has worked on would be off-limits but that he didn't forsee any particular subject that would force him to step aside.
President Barack Obama this summer nominated Kallon to the lifetime post.
The senior Democrat in Alabama's congressional delegation, Rep. Artur Davis, recommended Kallon for the job after consulting a panel of legal experts. He predicted Kallon would be a future nominee for even higher federal courts.
"As he assumes the bench at the ripe old age of 40, he will serve as a glittering role model for young lawyers," Davis said. "As the years advance, I have no doubt that he will gain the reputation of being one of the outstanding federal district judges in the nation."
The judge he'll replace, U.W. Clemon, was in the audience to offer support. Clemon brought Kallon to Birmingham in 1993, right after he earned his law degree from the University of Pennsylvania, as one of his law clerks.
Kallon has been a lawyer with Bradley Arant Boult Cummings in Birmingham since 1994, representing mostly employers in civil cases in federal court.

Taranaki consumers are promised a vastly improved shopping environment in a state-of-the-art store with the re-opening of Farmers Trading Company's newly refurbished New Plymouth store today.
They can also expect to be well served by the addition of 14 new part time staff, bringing the total number of jobs in the store to 90.
Farmers has added 700 sq. m. of new space to the City Centre Mall store's top floor to better showcase its manchester, children's and infants' clothing, nursery and homeware.
The 5,500 sq. m., two-level store features the very latest in department store design providing substantially more room to provide extra choice and more spacious viewing for customers, Farmers says.
Managing director Rod McDermott is delighted not only with the refurbished store which he says is world class but also by the fact the refurbishment has enabled the company to provide new jobs in New Plymouth.
"We are a family business and our shoppers are mostly family shoppers so we are very pleased to be able to bring new employment to the region," says Mr McDermott.
"And of course, it is of utmost importance to us to provide our shoppers with a modern, comfortable and safe environment in which to make their purchases or simply to browse with plenty of room to move."
Farmers has occupied the site for the past 25 years but store manager Herman Petrick is a relative youngster on the team after only 18 months in the city.
However, Mr Petrick is well versed in the ways of Farmers and the needs of its shoppers after managing the Lambton Quay store for more than two years. An American by birth from Portland, Oregon, Mr Petrick has worked for 25 years in retail.
"I am enjoying New Plymouth after the hustle and bustle of Wellington - I love the area and everyone's so friendly. It's just great".
"We're all really looking forward to working in our new store and providing the service and environment that shoppers want and enjoy."
Mr Petrick says the re-opening represents the culmination of a lot of hard work by many staff and others in the Taranaki community. "I take my hat off to everyone who has helped make this store refurbishment possible."
To celebrate the official re-opening of the extended New Plymouth store, Farmers is going in to sale mode for four days from today (29 August) and will remain open for extended hours. There's also a range of demonstrations and in-store events on offer, including new season fashion styling tips and home demonstrations.

As of Friday evening, the National Weather Service predicted temperatures in the Santa Clarita Valley could reach 103 degrees today, which is 25 degrees above normal. A high of 98 is predicted for Sunday.
Night time temperatures will likely not dip below 66 degrees.
The sizzling temperatures are due to a moderate offshore flow caused by strong high pressure over the West Coast, according to the weather service.
Although historical data for Santa Clarita was not available Friday, the record high for the San Fernando Valley on today's date was 102 degrees in 1954.
The weather service expects winds to stay calm through Sunday, which means no red flag warning despite the high temperatures and low humidity.
The weather service issued a hazardous weather statement that humidity levels could stay below 15 percent, which could bring potentially higher fire dangers.
Inspector Sam Padilla of the L.A. county Fire Department advised residents to be more cognizant of their outside activities, particularly when using equipment like weedwhackers that can spark fires.
He recommended clearing brush within at least 100 feet of houses.
"Help us help you," he said Friday. "When you help us, it gives us a buffer around your home if we're out fighting a fire."
But his best advice for avoiding this weekend's harsh weather was simple: "Move to Hawaii," he said. "Just get out of here."
If you choose to stick it out, weather officials say to be careful.
"We always say to relax during these hot periods," said Bill Hoffer, spokesman for the Oxnard office of the National Weather Service.
He suggested wearing loose-fitting clothing, reducing activity and not leaving elderly people, children or pets unattended in closed vehicles.
"Temperatures creep up there and become life-threatening real fast," he said.
The weather service expects temperatures to slide back down to the 90s early in the week due to onshore flow. However, temperatures will likely stay higher than normal.
