CFP: North Eastern Workshops on Southern Africa, 2014
United States
Conference Date:
Date Submitted:
Announcement ID:
This is a call for papers and discussants for the twelfth North Eastern Workshop on Southern Africa (NEWSA). We encourage scholars from all disciplines who are currently working on southern Africa (Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe) to submit proposals. The meeting will be held at the Bishop Booth Conference Center in Burlington, Vermont (USA), October 17-19, 2014. Located on 130 acres of forest with its own secluded beach, the center is an ideal location for scholarly conversation.
The NEWSA conference is organized around intensive discussion of pre-circulated papers. There are also many opportunities for informal conversation about work in progress. Drawing on the successful precedents of the former Southern African Research Program at Yale and the Canadian Research Consortium on Southern Africa, this program is designed to give southern Africanists the opportunity for close and intensive discussion of work across a wide variety of scholarly fields. We aim to prioritize scholarship, regardless of discipline or topic, that is evidence-based and grounded in analysis of African discourses and concepts, and which elucidates local worldviews and experience.
We encourage the presentation of previously unpublished work, and submissions from graduate students and junior faculty in particular. However, we are unlikely to accept any papers submitted from graduate students unless the writer has completed significant fieldwork that informs the analysis.
We especially encourage participation from professionals, scholars and graduate students in Africa, as well as those located in Europe, Canada, and the United States.
There are multiple ways to participate in the NEWSA conference. Participants may:
a) present a paper
b) propose a panel of three papers
c) serve as a discussant
Because of the high demand for participation relative to the size of the conference facility, and our desire to maintain the workshop atmosphere, we can only allow attendees who are presenting papers or serving as discussants.
If you wish to give a paper, your proposal should include your name, academic affiliation and status, paper title, and abstract. Your abstract should explain the argument you intend to make, the source of your evidence (e.g., archival, fieldwork, survey), and the contribution your paper makes to understanding significant problems in southern Africa, to furthering conceptual debates, and/or to producing new knowledge in Southern African Studies. The maximum length for the abstract is 500 words.
If you wish to organize your own three-paper panel, your proposal should include all the authors' names, titles and abstracts for all three papers, as well as a brief rationale for how the papers complement each other. The organizers will be happy to negotiate alternative panel formats (such as open discussions of a current issue). We also reserve the right to accept only some papers within a panel. You may choose to include a discussant, or leave it to us to provide one.
If you wish to serve as a discussant, your proposal should indicate the areas of southern African studies on which you are most prepared to comment. Once the conference participants are selected and organized into panels, each panel will be assigned a discussant. Discussants read the pre-circulated papers by the participants in their session, and at the conference give a 10-15 minute constructive criticism/comment on the papers individually and collectively. Discussants also coordinate discussion of the papers amongst those attending the panel.
The deadline for paper and/or panel proposals, or to volunteer as a discussant, is March 31, 2014. Please send proposals to Diana Jeater at email@example.com.
Completed papers, not to exceed 8000 words, will be due September 12, 2014, so that the papers can be pre-circulated on a conference website ahead of the meeting. For more information, please visit the NEWSA website: http://csbs.csusb.edu/newsa/index.htm

A new UN fund to manage billions of dollars to help developing nations combat climate change will be based in South Korea
The Green Climate Fund is to be sited in Songdo, Incheon City, the board of the fund said.
Germany, Mexico, Namibia, Poland and Switzerland had also sought to be the headquarters.
Under definitions laid down by the 1992 UN climate convention, South Korea is regarded as still being among the developing nations.
Developed nations agreed in 2009 to raise climate aid, now about $10bn a year, to an annual $100bn from 2020 to help developing countries curb greenhouse gas emissions and cope with floods, droughts, heatwaves and rising sea levels.
So far, there has been no discussion by the fund about how to raise $100bn, from public and private sources. The fund is now empty and the economies of many developed nations are struggling.
The decision will be put to environment ministers for approval at a meeting in Doha, Qatar, from 26 November to 7 December.
Oxfam welcomed the decision to site the fund in South Korea and urged action to fill it.
"South Korea must work to get all developed countries to make immediate pledges to the Green Climate Fund at Doha," Oxfam climate change program manager David Waskow said.
"The millions of poor people who need help coping with extreme weather events and destroyed harvests cannot afford for another UN Climate Conference later this year to close with the question of funding for adaptation still unresolved," he said.
South Korea has been favoured partly as a bridge between rich and poor nations, diplomatic sources said.

Faculty News
Prof. Orfield Interviewed on CNN NewswireSeptember 27, 2016
Professor Myron Orfield was interviewed by CNN Newswire about the relationship of growing racial segregation to urban conflict between non-white citizens and police. In discussing racial and economic tensions in St. Paul, Orfield said that racial segregation in housing and dismantling school integration programs in the 1990s, along with a trend of racial profiling by police, can all be contributing factors to the growing unrest in these communities.
Prof. Hasday Discusses the Constitution on KFAISeptember 26, 2016
Professor Jill Hasday was featured on a one-hour broadcast of Truth to Tell, a long-running public affairs show on KFAI radio. She discussed constitutional interpretation, constitutional structure, and recent controversies in constitutional law.
Prof. Painter on Bloomberg Radio (NYC) About High Profile Insider Trading CaseSeptember 22, 2016
Professor Richard Painter appeared on Bloomberg Law Radio's Bloomberg Law to discuss the SEC's insider trading allegations against prominent hedge fund manager Leon Cooperman who is accused of using his status as a major shareholder in Atlas Pipeline Partners to obtain nonpublic information and earn $4 million in trading profits before the sale of an important company asset in 2010. Painter was joined on the radio show by Erik Gordon, a professor at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business and Michigan Law School.
Prof. Vaaler Interviewed on MPR about Indictments for Embezzlement at Starkey TechnologiesSeptember 22, 2016
Professor Paul M. Vaaler was interviewed and quoted by Minnesota Public Radio correspondent Matt Sepic about the September 22 indictment for embezzlement of more than $20 million by five executives who either worked at Eden Praire-based hearing aid maker Starkey Technologies or who did business with those Starkey executives. Vaaler commented on the likely criminal trial process and its impact on related civil litigation arising from the firing of the three Starkey executives and other Starkey employees in September 2015. Vaaler also commented on differences in corporate governance and oversight of executive behavior in public versus private, closely-held companies like Starkey.
Prof. Levinson to Present Lecture on Law and Covenant at Symposium on Law, Society, and ReligionSeptember 14, 2016

Prof. Painter's New York Times Op-Ed Urges Clinton Family to Separate From Clinton Foundation if Clinton Wins PresidencySeptember 13, 2016
In his third New York Times op-ed in 2016, Professor Richard W. Painter writes that to avoid the appearance of impropriety and favoritism toward donors, the Clinton family should promise to separate all family members from the Clinton Foundation if Hillary Clinton is elected president. Prof. Painter also observed that favoritism toward political donors is pervasive in Washington, and has a greater corrupting influence than alleged favoritism toward a single charitable foundation.
Prof. Shen's Research Featured on Public News ServiceSeptember 12, 2016
Professor Francis Shen's recently published article, "Invisible Inequality: The Two Americas of Military Sacrifice," was featured in a Public News Service story.

Prof. Orfield Quoted in the Christian Science MonitorSeptember 10, 2016
Professor Myron Orfield was extensively quoted in this Sunday's Christian Science Monitor cover story, "The Resegregation of America." "When you live in a society where there are really distinct communities on the basis of race, distrust grows and the potential for incidents like [the police killing of Philando Castile] are much higher," says Prof. Orfield. "In places in the country that are less socially and racially segregated, I think these things are less likely to happen and less likely to have such an enormous outcry if they do."
Prof. Hasday Quoted by National Public Radio on Common Law MarriageSeptember 6, 2016
Professor Jill Hasday was quoted in a National Public Radio piece discussing the legal status and practical implications of common law marriage.
Prof. Orfield Quoted in Boston GlobeSeptember 3, 2016

Have evidence of RSS` involvement in terror attacks: Union Home Secretary
Zeenews Bureau
New Delhi: Home Secretary RK Singh on Tuesday said that intelligence agencies had the names of at least ten persons involved in
Samjhauta Express, Mecca Masjid and Dargah Sharif blasts who were associated with RSS.
"Yes, during investigation of Samjhauta Express, Mecca Masjid and (Ajmer) Dargah Sharif blasts, we have found at least 10 names who have been associated with the RSS at some point or the other," he told reporters.
Singh was replying to a question on whether government has any evidence linking RSS with any person involved in any terrorist strike anywhere in the country as claimed by Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde.
"We have evidence against them. There are statements of witnesses," he said.
The Home Secretary also made public the names of the ten persons who were allegedly involved in terror attacks and also had links with RSS.
The names given out by Singh included that of Sunil Joshi (dead), who was allegedly involved in Samjhauta Express and Ajmer Sharif Dargah blasts. He was an "activist of RSS" in Dewas and Mhow from 1990s to 2003.
Sandeep Dange (absconding), who was allegedly involved in Samjhauta Express and Mecca Masjid and Ajmer Sharif Dargah explosions. He was "RSS pracharak" in Mhow, Indore, Uttarkashi and Sajhapur from 1990s to 2006.
The Home Secretary also named Lokesh Sharma (arrested)
who was allegedly involved in Samjhauta Express and Mecca Masjid blasts. He was RSS `nagar karyavahak` in Deogarh.
Swami Assemanand (arrested), allegedly involved in Samjhauta Express, Mecca Masjid and Ajmer Sharif Dargah blasts. He was "associated with RSS wing Vanavashi Kalyan Parishad" in Dang, Gujarat in 1990s to 2007.
Rajender alias Samunder (arrested), allegedly involved in Samjhauta and Mecca Masjid blasts. He was "RSS Varg Vistarak".
Mukesh Vasani (arrested), allegedly involved in Ajmer Sharif Dargah blast.
He was an "activist of RSS" in Godhra.
Devender Gupta (arrested), allegedly involved in Mecca Masjid blast, was a "RSS pracharak" in Mhow and Indore.
Chandrasekhar Leve (arrested), allegedly involved in Mecca Masjid, was a "RSS pracharak" in Shajhanpur in 2007.
Kamal Chouhan (arrested), allegedly involved in Samjhauta and Mecca Masjid explosions was a "RSS activist".
Ramji Kalsangra (absconding), allegedly involved in Samjhauta Express and Mecca Masjid blasts, was a "RSS associate".
Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde had on Sunday stoked a controversy by accusing BJP and RSS of conducting terror training camps and promoting "Hindu terrorism", setting off an angry reaction from the saffron parties which demanded an apology from Sonia Gandhi.
"One on hand we are trying to bring peace in this country. We are also taking steps against injustice to minorities as also against infiltration. But, in the midst of all this, we have got an investigation report that be it the RSS or BJP, their training camps are promoting Hindu terrorism. We are keeping a strict vigil on all this," Mr Shinde had said at the AICC session in Jaipur.
He had said taht bombs were planted in Samjhauta express, Mecca Masjid and also a blast was carried out in Malegaon. In all these incidents, the involvement of right-wing extremist groups is suspected.
"We will have to think about it seriously and will have to remain alert," he had further added.
Attacking Shinde, BJP spokesperson Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi had told reporters in Delhi, "Their (Congress`) destructive mindset is reflected in the statement of the Home Minister. The statement he has given at the Chintan Shivir is very objectionable. It`s not only unacceptable but also dangerous."

I have an extremely bad habit of snacking on crap and then that sets off a major chain reaction of binging. I know myself and I'm positive I am not snacking because I am hungry and need the food. I am snacking because of bad habits and basically boredom.
What are some good ways I can break this nasty habit/addiction? Right now I just try to chug a glass of water and find an activity to take my mind off of it. Or if I do get a snack, I try to opt for high protein/low carb stuff so that the carbs and sugar won't set off a big chain reaction for me.
I am F, 30yo, 5'6", 219lb, been primal for 2 weeks and lost 8lbs so far. My husband refuses to go primal/paleo and I have 2 very young children so I can't just toss out all the carbs and snacks in the house.

At the Yokohama Arena concert,
Michishige Sayumi graduated from Morning Musume.
When I announced my graduation on April 29,
I thought
"I want to make lots of fun memories with all of the fans over the next 6 months."
In reality
I made so so soーーー
many memories!
In the half a year between the announcement and my graduation,
I felt more love from the fans than I had before
It was all.. fun.
Also.. so fast….
I like you all too much
However, it's because you tell me you like Sayumi! lol
Everyone who likes Sayumi
I loーーーve you!
Thank you
My graduation yesterday
In the middle of it, my leg started to hurt, and I couldn't dance like I thought I could and it was exceptionally mortifying, I'm so sorry,
I was more mad at myself than had ever been before (lol)
thinking back on it now, I was still happy
The Sayumin calls and the pink penlights.
I received so much love from your support and cheers and kindness.
I got all of it!
The power of everyone's love is incredible. It's unparalleled.
Now that I have graduated from Morning Musume, it honestly feels strange, like I'm still in the middle of a dream or something..
No, rather, now at the present moment,
the truth is, the past 12 years I've been working as a part of Morning Musume have been like something out of a dream.
I got to spend 12 years like they were a dream
Sayumi is truly fortunate.
Thank you for so much support
for me, who can't do much of anything,
for me, who causes problems because I can't do anything.
Thank you for loving me.
My final dress yesterday.
"I want to wear a dress made of flowers!
I want the dress itself to look like a flower garden!"
That was my wish and they brought all of it to reality for me
When I sit down it really looks like a flower garden, doesn't it
I sang Akai Freesia in this dress and at that moment
I was in utter bliss!
I have been bad at that song for all of 12 years (lol)
But I still thought, "I love this song!"
With everyone there, I really thought about how so many things have changed.
I have a lot of confidence and got stronger!
Thank you so much.
After the end of the show, with everyone in Morning Musume '14!
I love them!
I'm happy we could get along as well as we do
I'm glad I got to be with these members!
thank you for being Sayumi's kouhai.
New leader Fukuchan!
You will be okay if it's Fukuchan!
And the new order of Morning Musume after I have graduated will definitely be okay!
Because it's all of you.
You're all so awesome!
I love you
Then, Morning Musume OG senpai.
They came to see the concert
and gave me warm words
after the show, like "Good work," "You worked so hard these 12 years."
I looked up to them, joined Morning Musume, got scolded a lot by them, learned from them, and in the end they hugged me, I was so happy.
I am here now because my senpai were there.
Morning Musume is here now because they were there.
I'm so grateful to them,
And from now on Morning Musume will go on.
Also, the Hello!Pro members!
Thank you, everyone!
They all stood on stage with me, talked with me, spent time together with me, and it was fun.
I was happy they came to see me yesterday and had fun themselves.
told me
"Michishige-san, your singing voice has made progress~" (lol)
all of the staff members.
Thank you!
I caused trouble for you until the end… I am thankful from the bottom of my heart that I got to work with a staff who all have such love for Morning Musume.
And, I got presents and beautiful flowers from many entertainers and relations, and all of the fans.
Thank you so, so much!
Please take care of Morning Musume after this, everyone.
4329 days…
Thank you so much.
Morning Musume's 8th Leader Michishige Sayumi

On Saturday, June 2nd, David Hernandez took the hill against the Myrtle Beach Pelicans in front of the largest crowd of the year at Harry Grove Stadium.
Hernandez has been a pleasant surprise for most of the year. Coming into this appearance, only his previous start could be classified as a poor outing and he has been a consistent performer in the O's organization's most prospect-laden rotation.
The Keys' right-hander started out strong, striking out the side in the first, but command problems cropped up in the 3rd and 4th inning. He ended the day with the following line: 3.2 ip, 4 H, 6 ER, 5 BB, 6 K, 1 HR (Game Box Score).
After the game, I spoke with two talent evaluators about Hernandez. The first, Frederick Keys Manager Tommy Thompson, was able to look past his rough outing and find plenty of positive things to say about his 22 year old starter.
"He got behind in some counts," Thomson explained. "When he missed with a pitch, they executed. They hit the ball. We had a chance for a double play and we didn't execute it. Then it got to a 3-2 count [on Isaiah Kala Ka'aihue] and their team is a very good hitting team, they are going to score runs, and the guy just hit it out of the park. Dave battled. I tip my hat to him. It just didn't work out tonight but our bullpen picked him up. I'm not disappointed in Dave. He competed tonight and he's going to get the ball out there again in five days and compete again."
"He's got three pitches. He can pitch inside. He can throw a breaking ball. He can throw a fastball away and he can throw a changeup at anytime in any count. He just needs to locate his pitches better and, I think, pitch with a little more confidence at times. I don't know if he realizes how good of stuff and pitches he has. Once that comes into play, I think the concentration and confidence will take those pitches and make them even better against the hitters."
A scout from outside of the Baltimore Orioles organization was also on hand to watch Hernandez pitch and he came away impressed despite the difficulties.
"He did pretty good, he topped out at 94 MPH. He had pretty good command for a little while, but things started to fall apart a little bit."
After starting out so well, the scout explained, Hernandez ran into trouble when he started to tire.
"His mechanics started to break down a little bit. When he first got going, he started off really great and then, all of a sudden, he got tired real quick and his mechanics fell and then everything fell apart."
"His arm slot was the main thing. It went from overhead delivery and then came down to a three-quarters slot."
Nevertheless, the scout saw better days ahead in Hernandez's future, even praising his secondary offerings.
"The breaking ball and changeup are really good. He mostly has command of it. Tonight, it was just one of those things, he just broke down early. I just think he was a little bit tired."

You may not feel comfortable trusting others today and could keep information to yourself as a means of self-protection. Perhaps there have been people in your life who have betrayed your trust, and you might feel that by being cautious they will not have the power to hurt you. Learning to trust your instincts today may be the best way to overcome your fear of confiding in other people. As you interact with others, you can take a deep breath and quietly ask yourself if this person is someone you can entrust with your feelings or other information. Your body may give you a signal, such as tightness in your abdomen or a sense of openness, which can tell you what you should do. Trusting your own intuition might help you decide when to confide in others.
Understanding how to trust ourselves is the best way to place our trust in others. Keeping things to ourselves is not always the best form of protection since it might cause other people to want to dig deeper into our thoughts and feelings, which will create an even greater violation of our trust. When something feels amiss, however, our bodies warn us to be careful. We know on an intuitive level when we shouldn't trust someone. This form of awareness serves as a guide to choose the most appropriate course of action, and we learn how to open ourselves up when it feels right. By letting your intuition help you today, you will increase your trust in yourself and others.

Robert Watson Ferguson (born February 23, 1965) is an elected official and attorney from the U.S. state of Washington, who serves as the 18th Attorney General of Washington. He was first elected on November 6, 2012, receiving 53.48% of the vote.[1]
Early life[edit]
Bob Ferguson is a fourth-generation Washingtonian. His great-grandparents homesteaded in the 19th century on the Skagit River, near what is now Marblemount.[2] Ferguson's family has deep roots in Everett, Washington. His grandparents started a family business, a meat market, in 1900.[3] After the death of his grandfather, Ferguson's grandmother, Edith Hausmann, operated the meat market while raising five young children during the Depression.[1] Ferguson's grandfather was a member of the first graduating class at Everett High School in 1910.[1]
Ferguson's late father, Murray Ferguson, was also born in Everett. Murray Ferguson worked as a Boeing facilities manager. Ferguson's mother, Betty (Hausmann) Ferguson taught special education in Seattle's Public Schools. Both are graduates of Everett High School.[1] Betty and Murray Ferguson had seven children, including Bob.[1]
Ferguson attended grade school at St. Anne's and graduated from Bishop Blanchet High School in 1983. He attended the University of Washington where his fellow students elected him Student Body President.[4]
After graduating from the University of Washington, Ferguson joined the Jesuit Volunteer Corps and directed an emergency services office for a year.[5]
Legal career[edit]
Ferguson went to law school at New York University.[6]
During law school, Ferguson received a grant to provide legal assistance to the Yaqui tribe in Guadalupe, Arizona. Ferguson lived in Guadalupe and assisted community members on a wide range of legal needs.[7]
After receiving his law degree from NYU, Ferguson began his legal career in Spokane, where he served as a law clerk for Chief Judge William Fremming Nielsen of the Federal District Court for Eastern Washington, who was appointed by George H. W. Bush.[6] He then clerked for Judge Myron Bright of the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals in the Midwest, who was appointed by Lyndon Johnson.[6]
After his clerkship, Ferguson returned to Seattle and joined Preston Gates & Ellis (now K&L Gates) as a litigator, where he represented individuals, businesses, local governments, and Washington corporations. As an attorney, Ferguson worked with the legal team that successfully defended taxpayers from paying for cost overruns associated with Safeco Field construction.[8] He was part of the legal team that successfully challenged the constitutionality of Tim Eyman's initiatives.[7]
Representing business, Ferguson worked on cases involving software piracy and successfully sued companies that stole intellectual property from Washington companies.[8] Ferguson also donated hundreds of hours of free legal advice to non-profit organizations. For example, he assisted Kruckeberg Botanic Garden Foundation as legal counsel to turn a six-acre garden into a public park in Shoreline.[7]
After four years at Preston Gates & Ellis, Ferguson decided to run for the King County Council.
King County Council[edit]
Ferguson was first elected to the Metropolitan King County Council in 2003 by defeating Cynthia Sullivan, a 20-year veteran of the Council. Ferguson managed to outpoll Sullivan by about 500 votes.[9][10] At the time, the council was elected on a partisan basis. He faced no general election opponent in the heavily Democratic district. During his campaign to unseat Sullivan, Ferguson knocked on 22,000 doors in the district.[11]
As a result of the council reduction, redistricting placed Ferguson in the same district as another Democratic County Councilmember, Carolyn Edmonds of Shoreline. Ferguson narrowly defeated Edmonds.[12] He went on to defeat Republican challenger Steven Pyeatt in the general election, winning approximately 74% of the vote.[13]
Before being elected Attorney General, Bob Ferguson served on the King County Council, where he represented Council District 1, which includes northeast Seattle, Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, Kenmore, Bothell, Kirkland, and part of Woodinville.[4]
During his time on the Council, Ferguson served as Chair of the Regional Policy and Law, Justice and Human Services Committees and twice chaired of the Council's Law and Justice Committee.[6] In 2005, he co-sponsored legislation to place a ballot measure before the voters of King County to generate revenue to improve health services for veterans and military personnel.[14] County residents approved the measure.[14] In 2011, King County voters renewed the Veterans and Human Services Levy.
When King County Executive's office proposed spending $6.8 million for new furniture for the new County office building, Ferguson pushed the County to buy used furniture instead, saving taxpayers more than $1 million.[15]
Ferguson led the effort to raise $50 million annually to assist those suffering from mental illness and chemical dependency.[16] He received the Booth Gardner Mental Health Champion award from Sound Mental Health in 2011.[17] Ferguson successfully fought for $5 million to fund public health clinics in Northgate and Bothell that were threatened with closure.[18]
Ferguson served on the Youth Justice Coordinating Council on Gangs.[19] He pushed for civilian oversight of the King County Sheriff's office. In 2006, he helped lead the effort to create permanent oversight in the King County Sheriff's office.[18]
He sponsored the Open Space Preservation Act, which protects 100,000 acres of open space.[20] Ferguson authored legislation that prevents King County from doing business with companies known to repeatedly violate wage theft laws.[21]
In 2007, Ferguson co-sponsored legislation increasing the sales tax by one tenth of one percent in order to expand mental health, chemical dependency and therapeutic court programs to reduce costly and unnecessary involvement in the criminal justice system by mentally ill and chemically dependent individuals, and to save lives. The council approved the measure on a bipartisan vote.[22] In 2009, Ferguson co-sponsored bi-partisan legislation that called on the Executive to streamline the County's procurement process. Along with Republican Kathy Lambert, Bob co-sponsored legislation that eliminated 15 pages of paper forms required to contract with King County. (Ordinance 2010-0186)
Ferguson also worked to reform County government by connecting workers' wages to the economy, leading the Seattle Times to write, "This is brand new, necessary stuff in a county that can ill afford the existing approach. These changes would not be possible without the hard work of Republican Kathy Lambert and Council Chairman Bob Ferguson…Ferguson is taking considerable heat from labor for sticking his neck out on policies that may be anathema to his constituents. Ferguson's work should inspire other Democrats on the council to join him in moving the county forward to the 21st century."[23]
He co-sponsored legislation promoting the use of small businesses in fulfilling county contracts. (Ordinance 2007-0146). Ferguson co-sponsored legislation in 2011 creating a "Small Business Accelerator" program.[24] He declined to take a pay raise during tough economic times.[25] Ferguson also helped lead the effort for an independent audit of the county's election office.[26]
In 2010, Ferguson sponsored a ballot measure that would increase the sales tax to provide additional revenues to King County. Proposition No. 1 Sales and Use Tax. The measure failed 54.9% to 45.1%.[27] He wrote the law that reformed the county's public records process to ensure that citizens can easily obtain records and monitor their government.[6]
In recognition for his work to preserve King County's cultural heritage, Ferguson was presented with the Landmark Deeds Award for Public Service by the Washington Trust for Historic Preservation.[28]
The Center for Human Services selected Ferguson as the 2008 recipient of their annual Dorrit Pealy Award for Outstanding Community Service.[29] Food Lifeline gave Ferguson a Special Appreciation Award at its annual Ending Hunger Awards luncheon.[30]
In 2010, Ferguson was selected to join the Aspen Institute-Rodel Fellowship, a program that brings together the nation's most promising political leaders.[6]
Attorney General of Washington[edit]
On November 6, 2012, Bob Ferguson defeated fellow King County Councilmember Reagan Dunn to be elected as the 18th Attorney General of Washington State. Ferguson won by a margin of more than 200,000 votes, receiving 53.48% of the vote to Dunn's 46.52%.[31]
Ferguson won despite an unprecedented amount being spent by an out-of-state group in Washington state Attorney General's race.[32] The Republican State Leadership Committee, a group founded by Karl Rove, spent nearly $3 million in an effort to defeat Ferguson.[32] Ferguson was criticized during the campaign for not having prosecutorial experience.
During the course of the campaign, Ferguson visited all 39 Washington state counties.[33]
Arlene's Flowers lawsuit[edit]
In April 2013 Ferguson filed a consumer protection lawsuit against Barronelle Stutzman and her Richland, Washington floral shop Arlene's Flowers in response to a complaint by Robert Ingersoll and his fiance Curt Freed.[34] Ferguson claimed that the business violated Washington's consumer protection law after Stutzman refused to provide flowers for the couple's same sex wedding.[35] The attorney general's office sent a letter to Stutzman informing her that she was in violation of Washington State's Consumer Protection Act. A letter by Ferguson called for a penalty of $2,000 Dollars and to celebrate all same sex unions. Stutzman sent back a reply that it was against her religious beliefs to do so. The attorney general's office followed up with a phone call to Stutzman, giving her an opportunity to comply with the law, head off legal action, and avoid paying any fees or costs. Stutzman responded with a letter from her lawyer. The move was criticized by Stutzman's lawyer, who stated that Ferguson did not have the statutory authority to file the lawsuit and that it was uncertain whether or not it was a "clear case of discrimination".[36][37]
The couple had been previous clients of Stutzman for nine years until they had requested her services for their wedding, which she refused to do based upon her religious view on same sex marriage.[38] Stutzman has since filed a counter-suit, stating that Ferguson's lawsuit was an attempt to force her to violate her religious beliefs.[39] Stutzman and her attorneys also requested that the lawsuit be dismissed, as they alleged that the suit didn't show that the couple had received any financial injury to their business or property.[40] Judge Sal Mendoza Jr ruled that the lawsuit could continue, as the time and travel spent traveling to Arlene's Flowers and finding another florist did count as financial injury.[41] On February 18, 2015, Benton County Superior Court Judge Alexander Ekstrom ruled that she had violated the state's anti-discrimination law.[42] On February 19, 2015, Stutzman stated she would appeal the ruling.[43] On March 27, 2015 Judge Alexander Ekstrom ordered Ms. Stutzman to pay a $1,000 fine, plus $1 for court costs and fees.[44][45]
Personal life[edit]
Bob Ferguson is an enthusiastic mountain climber, backpacker, and birder, and has hiked hundreds of miles of Washington trails and climbed many of the state's highest peaks.[7] After college, Ferguson traveled around the country to see a baseball game in every major league stadium.[4]
Ferguson is an internationally rated chess master.[46] His games have appeared in local, national and international chess publications, and he has twice won the Washington State Chess Championship.[46] He and his wife Colleen live in Seattle's Maple Leaf neighborhood with their twins, Jack and Kate.[4]

Arthur creator to make stops at Erie-area schools
Previous versions of this story incorrectly reported that March Brown's talk at Ridgefield Elementary School on Jan. 23 would be open to the public. His presentation at the Millcreek Township school is open to only students and their families
Author Marc Brown will return to Erie this month to speak at Gannon University and two local elementary schools.
Brown created the popular "Arthur" children's book series that spawned a long-running PBS cartoon. The McDowell High School graduate published his first children's book, "Arthur's Nose," in 1976.
Brown will make stops at Ridgefield and Fairview elementary schools on Jan. 23 to talk with groups of students about how he writes and illustrates books.
He will speak at 9:30 a.m. and noon at Fairview Elementary School, 5145 Avonia Road, Fairview.
Principal Ben Horn said his school kicked off a countdown to Brown's visit last week. Students are working on their own Arthur stories, the best of which will be read to Brown, and the school gets daily visits from Arthur himself -- or at least someone in an Arthur costume.
Horn said his school has collected "a ton" of Arthur books from the community so students can read as many as possible before Brown's visit.
"We decided to have a big kickoff beforehand, so everyone knows he's coming and who he is," Horn said. "But that wasn't really necessary for the students. Every kid has read an Arthur book."
Brown will be at Ridgefield Elementary School, 3227 Highland Ave., from 6 to 7:30 p.m., and students in attendance will receive a free Arthur book. The presentation at Ridgefield will be open to the students and their families and includes a book signing.
Brown will address the importance of encouraging children to read when he stops at Gannon on Jan. 25. He will speak at 7 p.m. in the university's Waldron Campus Center, 124 W. Seventh St. The session is free and open to the public.

I don't have much to say about the original topic other than to say I'm a tall woman, now in my mid-forties, who has been relatively slender her whole life. For those brief periods of time (usually less than a year), when I did find myself 10-15 lbs overweight, it was because I was eating absolute crap (fast food, frozen pizza, crackers, etc) on a consistent basis. I cut that shit out, I lose weight. My body really does seem to prefer the high-fat, low-carb WOE. But's that's just me. Your body may prefer something different.
I do want to comment briefly on the horse topic. On a functional level, there is virtually no genetic difference between wild and domestic horses. "Wild" or feral horses in the American West travel up to 20-30 miles a day in search of grass, which for most of the year is relatively low in sugar. In the spring, when the sugar content of grass shoots way up, wild horses may pack on the pounds, but those fat stores are burned up later when the grass isn't as abundant or rich. So, for most of the year, the wild horse is moving most of the day, low and slow, and eating grasses with relatively lower sugar contents. These horses rarely have metabolic issues such as insulin-resistance or founder.
What do we do with our domestic horses? We park them in a stall or in a lush pasture and feed them way more sugar than they need. We also greatly curtail their movement. They no longer have to walk 20 miles a day in search of food. The result is often horses with metabolic issues, which all too often present as hoof issues. Mustangs pulled off the range and placed in BLM holding pens will often develeop the same metabolic issues as domestic horses. The lesson learned here is that when we move a horse to far away from it's natural way of living, bad things can happen to it.
I'm not sure what any of that has to do with the original topic, but there it is. :)
ETA: Magnolia is correct that certain breeds of horses will have different caloric needs, but WHAT they should eat, and the need for movement, is consistent throughout the species.

For the first time in the village's history, McDonald has formed a historical society.
David Martin, a member of the newly organized group, said there has been discussion in recent years about the village needing a historical society.
"There was concern of losing the information on the history of the village with many of the older residents dying. We wanted to talk to some of those residents and get their stories," he said.
The village was established more than 90 years ago and grew in population as the mills brought workers and their families to the community.
An initial meeting attended by eight residents was held in early December about organizing and what the group wanted to do. Plans are to meet at 9 a.m. the first Thursday of each month in the village's community room.
Resident Ellen Surak was one of the community members who spearheaded the effort to form the society. Surak, who has been active with the Girard Historical Society, wanted to see McDonald also have a society.
Martin said village council was informed of what the group wanted to do and received their support.
"Mayor Holmes and village council are behind us and have given us their support," he said.
Martin, who is a member of the Niles Historical Society and familiar with such organizations, said McDonald is a steel town with a rich history with the village growing because of the mills.
"We have a unique community. We need to promote our history and speak with our older residents on what they remember," he said.
Martin said he spoke to the McDonald residents on what Niles' historical society does including having member Audrey John serving as curator of the Ward Thomas House Museum.
Martin said until the group is official they cannot accept any items for possible future display for the public to see.
Martin said since the group's plans have become known, several people have indicated they have old records and also noted Youngstown State University has archives on McDonald.
The idea was also presented at a McDonald Senior Citizen meeting where there was much interest from those in attendance, Martin said.
"We want people to realize the history of Mcdonald is important,' he said.
Plans are to elect officers and gather information to kick the group off the ground.
Martin said the group would like to see more people get involved.
The next meeting is 9 a.m. Thursday. For more information, call 330-530-4878.

As President Obama calls for a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world, some in Israel are wary of this new relationship and what it means for the Jewish people.
The speech was one of the most anticipated in recent Middle East memory. Many saw Obama's speech to the Muslim world as a bellwether for U.S. Middle East policy for the next four years.
The Israeli government reacted with a brief official statement. It read in part, 'We share President Obama's hope that the American effort heralds the beginning of a new era that will bring about an end to the conflict and lead to Arab recognition of Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people, living in peace and security in the Middle East.'
For some, Obama's speech struck chords of hope.
"It was absolutely fantastic," one person said. "It was full of hope and we really need someone like Obama to make peace."
Others were inspired.
"Just completely struck by his courage and his vision," another stated. "I find it totally inspiring."
However, many Israelis felt Obama's speech was more sign Israel is losing its strongest ally in the world and one day soon may have to go it alone.
"Personally, I'm really concerned about what's going on for the next four years and basically I think he's going to leave us alone and we are on our own," one man said.
"A lot of things that he's been saying can be potentially dangerous for Israel," another person said. "He's kind of pitting them against a wall."
In his speech, Obama once again called for a stop to settlements. The additional demand to stop natural growth troubles those who support Jewish communities in the West Bank.
"They think it's a bogus term, natural expansion of the settlements. But like I said, if you have to live there and you have children or you get married and you want to live close to your family, how are you going to do it?," one Israeli said.
But Obama's portrayal of Islam throughout history in his speech concerns some academics.
Obama stated "throughout history, Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance and racial equality."
But Islamic historian and scholar Moshe Sharon says this misrepresents historic Islam.
"When you speak about the equality that Islam has within it, as if all people are equal, it is not true," he explained. "Islam never regarded all people as all equal. Because the Moslems are always on the top and the non-Muslims are dmimmis. Jews and Christians, according to Islamic law can never be on the same level as the Muslim. Where is the equality?"
"The president is very eloquent," Sharon said. "The president is an excellent speaker. He's got his charismatic person and everybody would believe that whatever he says is true. It's not true. Historically, it's not true. Not only, because I'm saying it, but because the Muslims think it's not true. It's not true that there's equality between them and the others."
President Obama plans to set a different course than President Bush did to the Muslim world. This new course will have a profound impact on Israel, the Middle East and the U.S.

Native to Japan and China. Pennsylvania State Champion.
Designated as the Arboretum's top tree by staff and visitors, this is perhaps the largest Katsura tree in North America and was planted in the early 1900s as part of a Japanese garden. Its huge spreading canopy is simultaneously graceful and powerful, and the wide exposed roots have an equally distinctive character. The leaves start out in spring as a beautiful light pink before turning to light green. In summer the leaves are a bluish green before turning yellowish-apricot in the fall. As the leaves fall and decompose, they give off an odor of caramel or cotton candy.
The Arboretum is open as usual. Click here for hours.
Please note that weather conditions can change quickly, check back or call (215) 247-5777 before heading out for a visit.
Weather conditions may limit garden access to certain features even if the garden is open – please check the web site or call (215) 247-5777 for updates before visiting. Our visitors' safety in the garden is our top priority. Therefore when inclement weather is predicted, we will make decisions about closing the garden accordingly.

Featured Golf News
Langer Extends Edge in Senior Players Championship
Bernard Langer continued his outstanding play in the $2.7 million Senior Players Championship, the third major of the year on the Champions Tour. The 56-year-old German followed up his first two rounds of 5-under 65 and a 64 with a 66 at Fox Chapel Golf Club in Pittsburgh.
After two bogeys and a pair of birdies on the front nine, the two-time Masters champion with 20 victories on the over-50 circuit settled down on the home half with four birdies.
Through 54 holes, Langer, a two-time winner this year who also leads the season-long Charles Schwab Cup points race, stands at 15-under 195, three strokes ahead of defending champion Kenny Perry, who carded a 65.
Perry, the 2013 Charles Schwab Cup winner, had six birdies, an eagle on the par-5 second hole, and three bogeys.
The 53-year-old Kentuckian heads into Sunday seeking his fourth Champions Tour major title in the past year. He's also trying to become only the second player - joining Arnold Palmer - to secure back-to-back Senior Players titles.
Sharing third at 11-under 199 are Russ Cochran, whose 7-under 63 was Saturday's low mark, Joe Durant (67) and Bill Glasson (68). Five behind Langer is Jeff Sluman, who shot a 64.
Tied for seventh at 9-under after 69s are John Riegger and Michael Allen, while another stroke back are Tommy Armour III (66), Marco Dawson (68), Mark O'Meara (69) and first-round leader Doug Garwood, who carded a 71 in the third round.

First Descent
This is a documentary about snowboarding, two things that go together about as well as chamber music and slam-dancing. If the documentary were paced in a manner appropriate to the sport, I could see it working, but at times the tempo was so slow I expected Ken Burns to appear and start reading historic letters from the Civil War.
The problem starts with the opening credits, which last longer than an Oscar acceptance speech and cause the movie to immediately run afoul of a primary characteristic of its intended audience: short attention spans. Segments on the history of snowboarding clunk by like PowerPoint slides, interspersed with some footage of snowboarding luminaries riding the Alaska wilderness.
In this expedition, Nick Peralta and Shawn Farmer are the snowboarding old-timers, and Farmer especially strikes you as someone who's beginning to realize he's "that guy" at the all-ages show twice as old as everyone around him. Hannah Teter and Shaun White are the young turks, halfpipe masters who sometimes struggle with the Alaska terrain. Terje Haakonsen is the Scandanvian superstar, a one-man-ABBA of snowboarding. When not actively snowboarding, everyone gathers to talk about snowboarding, snow conditions, and the postmodern philosophical critiques of Michel Foucault. Well, not so much the Foucault.
In the end, we learn that snowboarding's fun for everyone, except, it would seem, black people. Seriously, if you do go see this film, play "spot the black snowboarder." There is one. But he's hard to find. Like Waldo. The larger issue here is "do we care"? I mean, someone came up with the idea of strapping a board to his feet and sliding around on the snow on it. Is this really an occasion for such cinematic gravitas? Apparently this turned into a "movement" and all this time, I thought all these folks had just lost a ski.
The movie keeps underscoring the "anti-establishment" energy that drove the snowboarding revolution, which is the height of irony given that the message is being delivered directly from the establishment, namely PepsiCo. That's right, "MD Films" is one of the producers of this film. "MD" stands for "Mountain Dew." So it's essentially a two-hour soda pop commercial, which explains why a Mountain Dew sponsored NASCAR race is considered central to a film about snowboarding. At one point, some snowboarding luminaries ponder whether the sport has sold out. The only surprise for me in this film was when that heartfelt soliloquy wasn't followed up with a big onscreen swig of Mountain Dew, and an exclamation along the lines of "Wow, that's refreshing to the EXTREME!"
"First Descent" goes downhill fast.

With its boulevards, shops, bars and turn of the century townhouses, the Andräviertel is Salzburg's classic, central residential area. You can't get much closer to the city centre. As a result, there is a wide selection of shopping, leisure activities and cultural offerings.
Tip: Every Thursday, residents and tourists alike come together at the Schrannen Market, a colourful farmer's market in front of St Andrew's Church. The market operates year-round and offers a great variety of fresh foods and products.
This apartment is easily reached by public transport and, with many bus connections to the railway station and airport, you will have no trouble getting around in Salzburg.
The apartment has a parking space available for guests arriving by car.
The approximately 85m² apartment ideally sleeps up to 6 people but can sleep up to 8 if needed (living room couch and/or guest beds). Travel cot and high chair available.

A very comfortable and rather central location. It is brilliantly clean and ample bedding and towels, but a few basics like tea/coffee would be helpful, as would the "heads up" that you must pay 12€ as a "city tax", for which you fill in a form. The local gas bar is great for some groceries and delicious bakeries and cafes are nearby, as is the Mozart museum.
This is the second time we stayed at this apartment in Salzburg and once again were happy with everything. Quick and clear communication with hosts, good location, clean and nice apartment.
We had everything we needed at the apartment and it is very well situated, close to the Old Town. Great communication with hosts Marion and Walter, always available and quick to respond. Thank you and I would definitely recommend this place.
Lovely apartment wished we could have stayed longer. Everything as described.
Thank you for having us
Die Lage der Wohnung war gut; in die Salzburger Altstadt waren es zu Fuß ca. 15 bis 20 Minuten. Die Schlüsselübergabe hat gut geklappt. Die Wohnung ist geräumig und gut geschnitten. Bei unserem nächsten Salzburgbesuch würden wir die Wohnung wieder mieten.
Vielen Dank für den wirklichen schönen und entspannten Aufenthalt in Salzburg.
Das Apartment Teresa liegt fußläufig hinter dem Hauptbahnhof in der Neustadt. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten sind gut zu Fuß zu erreichen.Das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis ist OK. Die Wohnung wird von einer "Vermietergesellschaft" verwaltet und liegt in einem Mehrfamilienhaus. Der Verwalter kam unseren Wünschen entgegen und ermöglichte uns freundlicherweise einen deutlich früheren Zugang zur Wohnung. Die Wohnung war funktional und sauber. Manche Selbstverständlichkeiten anderer Ferienwohnungen sind etwas karg limitiert (z. B. zusätzliche Müllbeutel, Tabs für die Spülmaschine).
Schöne, zweckmässige Wohnung, gute Lage in Salzburg, gute Organisation wg. Schlüsselübergabe. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

'Middle Cyber Monday' eclipses 'Cyber Monday' as biggest UK shopping day ever seen
UK consumers make 120 million visits to online retail sites in a single day
Visits up by 3.6 per cent compared to Cyber Monday
Experian has revealed that for the first time ever the second Monday of December (9 December 2013), coined "Middle Cyber Monday", was the biggest online shopping day of the year, eclipsing Cyber Monday (2 December 2013), the previous record holder.
Data from Experian Hitwise, the online competitive intelligence tool, shows that British Internet users made 120 million visits to retail websites on Monday 9 December, representing a 10.5 per cent increase year-on-year from Monday 10 December 2012. This is a 3.6 per cent increase compared to last week's record breaking Cyber Monday which saw 115 million visits on 2 December 2013 alone.
Additional data points include:
- UK consumers spent more time than ever before shopping online on Middle Cyber Monday, spending 16 million hours on retail sites compared to 15.3 million hours on Cyber Monday 2013
- On average, consumers spent eight minutes per site visit on Monday 9 December, equaling Cyber Monday 2013
- A new trend is emerging with festive shopping spreading out across December, instead of peaking at the start of the month as previously seen
- Thursdays and Fridays, traditionally poor performers for online retail are experiencing substantial growth for the first time
As people shop later and later into December, Experian is predicting further peaks on Christmas Eve, with Boxing Day still on track to smash records as the biggest online retail day ever witnessed.
James Murray, Digital Insight Manager for Experian Marketing Services commented:
"This is the first time that the second Monday of December (Middle Cyber Monday) has eclipsed the first Monday of December (Cyber Monday) in terms of online visits. This represents a dynamic shift in consumer behaviour and is disrupting the shopping trends that we have been observing for the last five years."
"As retailers get better at delivering goods before Christmas, the imperative to order online early is diminishing. With shopping becoming easier on the go, savvy consumers are also increasingly using the internet on mobile devices to browse, compare and shop where, when and how they want. "

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Nearly twenty years after two young women were shot and stabbed to death at a Kentucky massage parlor, two former police officers stand charged in connection with their deaths.
Edward Carter and Leslie Duncan are among three men charged in the 1994 slayings at the New Life Massage Parlor in Oak Grove. Carter and an Alabama man were indicted late last week on two murder counts. Duncan was indicted on two counts of complicity to murder.
Investigators are being tight-lipped about how the ex-cops are allegedly linked to the slayings. But Tammy Papler, the woman who once ran the parlor, claimed years ago that she had been bribing police to allow her to operate what was in essence a prostitution business and that the killings took place after she stopped paying.
