As you may know, Sausalito's 75-year-old sewer system is deteriorated and needs upgrades. Ensuring we have updated pipes and infrastructure to properly and safely transport sewage is essential to protecting our environment, continuing to comply with clean water requirements, and maintaining a healthy, safe community.
The City Council and Finance Committee has thoroughly discussed sewer infrastructure investment and maintenance alternatives, financial plan findings, cost of service allocation and development of a rate alternative during ten public meetings from September 2013 to March 2014.
The City has identified the initial critical need for $5 million dollars in priority sewer system projects and emergency repairs over the next five years. Rate payers have received a notice about a proposed rate structure to make these improvements, including written protest procedures. Proposed homeowner rates include an average increase of about $50 annually, or about $4 per month. Rates for condos, apartments, and commercial properties vary.
The City is proposing equitable rates that ensure all rate payers share in the cost of necessary sewer upgrades and system maintenance in proportion to the cost of serving each class of customers. All funds raised by sewer fees are legally required to stay in Sausalito, are subject to annual independent audits, and must be spent to improve our sewer system. A public hearing will be conducted on May 6 offering property owners the opportunity to comment on this issue.

In past years, the City of Sausalito has seen a steady increase in the number of bicycle riders coming into the City and then taking a ferryboat ride back to San Francisco. As the number of riders grows, so does the concern for safety issues involving the interaction of bicyclists, vehicles, and pedestrians. In addition, the number of bikes coming into our City has exceeded the capacity of the current bicycle parking areas.
With summer just around the corner, the City has taken proactive measures to increase tourist safety, find additional bicycle parking and encourage additional ferry runs.
After meetings with local merchants and careful review, Chief Jennifer Tejada and Public Works Director Jonathon Goldman proposed a pilot project to improve upon last year's changes. This plan, which includes the closure of Tracy Way for bicycle parking, was presented to the City Council and approved. This closure has allowed staff to add additional bicycle parking in the downtown area and reduce the interaction of bicycles and motor vehicles. During this closure, El Portal became a two-way street with areas where motorists can quickly drop off passengers. All changes to the El Portal –Tracy Way area are temporary and can be easily restored back to their original design after the end of tourist season.
In addition to meeting with the merchants, the Department also held its annual pre-season bicycle meeting. City Staff met with representatives of the ferry companies, Sausalito Chamber of Commerce, Marin Bicycle Coalition, and the bicycle rental companies to discuss the upcoming tourist season. The main focus of this meeting was to address bicycle safety issues along with resident and merchant concerns.
Staff facilitated several discussions that stressed the importance of the rental companies providing proper bicycle safety instructions and rules of the road handouts to bicycle renters, requiring bicycle renters to wear helmets, parking bicycles in designated areas, and increasing the number of ferry trips during peak times. Staff has also requested that the ferry companies, Sausalito Chamber of Commerce, and the rental companies work together to increase the amount of staffing at the reservation kiosk and at the ferry dock.
With these changes and recommendations, along with on-going meetings with the Chamber of Commerce, merchants, citizens, ferry and bicycle rental companies, the City is working diligently to lessen the impact of bicycles in Sausalito.
Special Event
Marin Open Studios: Gabrielle Moore-Gordon
Saturday, May 3 and Sunday, May 4 - 11am to 6pm inside the Library
Marin Open Studios is an annual, free, self-guided art tour in Marin County that takes place the first two weekends in May. The Sausalito Public Library is proud to be hosting an artist in 2014, painter and Sausalito resident Gabrielle Moore-Gordon. Moore-Gordon's painting education began in Switzerland and continued for many years in Hong Kong. Her African up-bringing and a fascination with Eastern art techniques culminate in unusual and interesting work. This has helped her to express her deep concern, not only for the people of her troubled country, Zimbabwe, but also for the endangered wildlife of our planet. Her endeavor is to bring greater awareness to the plight of our vanishing wildlife and to the suffering in the country of her birth, as well as to the delights of the birds and wildlife in our own backyard in California.

The Mountains of the Moon are a region in the Vale of Arryn. They form the western edge of the Vale, separating it from the Riverlands to the west. They are a substantial mountain range with many splinter ranges that dominate most of the territories ruled by House Arryn.
The western foothills and flanks of the mountains are home to Hill tribes, warrior clans of varying size but unmitigated ferocity against the civilized inhabitants of the region.
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, the Mountains of the Moon are tall and forbidding, among the tallest peaks in all of Westeros. The largest pass through the mountains is guarded by a fortress known as the Bloody Gate, while the Eyrie, the seat of the Arryns, is built on the shoulder of the Giant's Lance, the tallest mountain in the region.
Due to their superior knowledge of the terrain, attempts by either the river lords or the valemen to wipe out the Hill tribes have failed. However, they lack the knowledge and technology needed to successfully prosecute siege warfare against the Vale of Arryn, which they regard as their true birthright.

Louis Baker is Recording Prize Winner
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Friday 1
theaudience.co.nz announces Louis Baker as Recording Prize winner
Louis Baker could be described as one of NZ music's up and coming talents with a very successful 2012 behind him. It also looks like 2013 will be no exception, beginning with the success of a #1 placing on music discovery website theaudience.co.nz.
Working tirelessly to forge a path for himself in the music industry, last year saw Louis supporting local legends Fat Freddy's Drop, playing Rhythm and Alps, Rhythm and Vines and La De Da. He was also selected to attend The Red Bull Music Academy, described as "a platform for those who make a difference in today's musical landscape."
The young Wellington-based musician with the warm, soulful voice, has also spent time in the studio working on his own material. Posting 'Even In The Darkness' on theaudience.co.nz near the start of January, it was a slow but steady climb to the top and just the beginning of what is set to be another great year for Louis Baker.
"I want to thank each and every one of you [that voted] from the bottom of my heart, this outcome would not have been possible without your amazing support" Louis's first response to word of his win. "I see this video and recording as a vehicle to create more of a positive vibration in the world, and to me it feels like this is a shared, collective victory for both myself and the fans."
This success sees him secure the first ever theaudience Recording Prize, which will entitle him to a full day of recording in the legendary Brick Room at Roundhead Studios, mastering from Chris Chetland at Kog Studio and a performance video directed by multi-award winning photographer and video director Mat Baker.
Louis is the inaugural winner of theaudience Recording Prize, finishing in the #1 position at the end of the December / January Wildcard Chart on 31 January. His song 'Even In The Darkness' was the most popular unreleased track on the Wildcard Chart for the combined months of December and January on theaudience.co.nz, and you can listen to his winning track here.
Announcing the #1 track also marks the beginning of a new chart month on theaudience.co.nz, with the NZ On Air Making Tracks Wildcard funding resuming. Who will be in the running for February? Head to theaudience.co.nz to discover new music and have your say.

Winner of a Consumer Electronics Show Innovations Design and Engineering award, this is the amplified TV antenna that eliminates the need for constant adjustment. Unlike typical antennas, this superior model has a 360� signal-detection radius in both vertical and horizontal planes, allowing optimal signal reception without adjusting the antenna's positioning. The antenna employs a low-noise filtering chipset that suppresses any interfering noise, ensuring unambiguous reception of both standard definition and 1080p high definition broadcasts (requires HDTV). The antenna can be wall mounted, placed flat, or stood vertically. Connects to television with the included coaxial cable. 11 1/2" H x 10 3/4" W x 1 1/8" D. (2 lbs.)
Q: Do you attach it directly to the TV instead of a regular antenna?
The Antenna connects with the coaxial cable directly to a digital television, or connects to a converter box which connects to an analog television.
Q: I currently don't have cable or a satellite dish, so I get no reception at all on my TV. Will I be able to receive any channels with this antenna, or will I still be required to obtain a digital converter box?
The Antenna receives 1080 HDTV broadcasts that are being broadcasted in the area. To display digital signals, a TV must either be capable of decoding digital signals itself or be connected to a converter box or other HD capable tuning device with an antenna input such as a cable box or satellite receiver.
Q: What is included with the Antenna?
The Best Amplified Television Antenna comes complete with:1 HDTV Antenna with built-in coaxial cable1 Removable multi-purpose stand/wall mount with screws for attachment1 Power adapter1 Removable 10 DB gain signal amplifier with built-in coaxial cable

Amplified Television Antenna
By Desert rat
from Yuma, AZ
Product came just in time for the Super Bowl. Set up time was very short, easy, and made a big difference. I had to extend the cable coax so that I could make it work as the location was a problem for reception. A little creativity made a big difference on game day. Wonderful!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not So Great
By Snow on the Roof
from San Antonio, TX
I was disappointed in it's ability to pull in weak signals. There are 3 local broadcast stations and it can pull in 2. Sadly it does no better than the rabbit ears it replaced. To be fair, I am extremely limited in where I can place it, and it could probably do better elsewhere in my home. I am keeping it because it looks so much better than the rabbit ears.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
The technology has improved
By Manic Mare
from High Point, NC
I had an antenna from the same company that was the top of the line four years ago, but this one is a marked improvement in picture and reception.
No need for cable
By CAL the homebody
from Detroit, MI
No outside antenna or rabbit ears anymore. Placed behind furniture and still receives signal.

The idea of a school of public affairs at Harvard was born in the midst of the Great Depression and on the eve of World War II. As government grappled with historic challenges both domestic and international, Harvard alumnus Lucius N. Littauer backed his vision of a school for a new professional governing class with an unprecedented $2 million gift, then the largest single gift from an individual donor ever given to a university.
For the past seven decades the Harvard Kennedy School has strived to place itself at the vanguard of studying public policy and preparing its practitioners. Today the Kennedy School has evolved into one of the world's most eminent social science research institutions – housing 15 research centers and institutes and more than thirty executive education and degree programs – with worldwide reach and influence. More than 46,000 Kennedy School alumni reside in more than 200 countries and territories and serve in a wide range of positions in the public, private and nonprofit sectors.

Jack White announces new solo album 'Lazaretto'
Listen to Jack White on iHeartRadio
Jack White's latest solo venture is officially on the way. The former White Stripes rocker has announced plans to release Lazaretto on June 10th. But White has already unveiled a sample of the follow-up to his Grammy-nominated solo debut Blunderbuss in the form of a new song called "High Ball Stepper."
The instrumental guitar workout also comes with a video made up of shots paint and sand getting bounced around by the vibrations from a massive speaker cabinet.
Fans can pre-order a special limited edition copy of Lazaretto by signing up for the Third Man Records' Vault subscription between now and April 30th at ThirdManRecords.com.
Meanwhile, White has a few other projects in the works as well. He's set to appear on a pair of tracks from Neil Young's upcoming album A Letter Home, and his other band The Dead Weather plans to put out an album in 2015 with two-song sets coming out periodically until then.

SUSANNA White, producer of Generation Kill, and Sir Tom Stoppard, author of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, make a most unlikely partnership.
And yet in fusing the two together the last thing you would expect them to deliver is a period drama such as Parade's End.
Adapted from the novel by Ford Madox Ford, it is a sweeping period saga, spanning seven bodice-ripping, war-torn years from 1912 to 1918, with a flashback to 1908 thrown in for good measure.
Think Downton Abbey with the fate of the free world at stake.
While the narrative is propelled by the events of the First World War, Parade's End is more of a bitter-sweet love story focusing on the world of the aristocratic Christopher Tietjens (Benedict Cumberbatch).
He is trapped in an unhappy marriage to Sylvia (Rebecca Hall), while being drawn to a woman he quickly realises he is deeply in love with, the outspoken, system-bucking Valentine Wannop (Adelaide Clemens).
White describes Ford Madox Ford's original novel as a natural for screen adaptation because of its extremely visual style. ''His grandfather was Ford Madox Brown the painter, and he was married to two painters, so he is very visual as a writer,'' she says.
''He was a modernist, he edited Conrad and he knew Joyce, he knew Virginia Woolf. He was very stimulated by that whole modernist world. And the more I read, the more I started to see all these painting references in his work. That's very much the look we've gone for with the television adaptation.''
Enter Sir Tom Stoppard, who was asked to write the adaptation by Damien Timmer, whose production company Mammoth Screen made the series. Timmer paired Stoppard with White, whose credits include the edgy HBO war drama Generation Kill.
''The responsibility is directing a huge piece of work by Tom,'' White says, smiling. ''He's one of the world's greatest writers. But you can't think too much about that or you'll go mad. So you just get on with it.''
It's an unlikely partnership, she admits, but one that has been a thrilling ride. ''What always attracts me to a piece of work is storytelling, and I love Tom's voice, in his plays, and in Shakespeare in Love,'' she says.
''People find me unusual because I like having a writer on my set. I would be silly not to have Tom on my set, because he's a tremendous resource.''
And what a set it is. Borrekens Castle is standing in for the Tietjens family home. It sits in the middle of a dense woodland just north-east of the small Belgian town of Vorselaar.
The five-hour series was filmed at several locations in Britain including the Kent and North Yorkshire countryside, and in several locations in Belgium, notably Aalter, Nieuwpoort and Veurne.
White, who is producing and directing the series for the BBC, HBO and a third co-production partner, the Belgian network VRT, says the length and intensity of the location filming was difficult.
''For the first time I walked onto a set I'd never seen before because we literally had a ticking clock,'' she says. ''I had to hold my nerve and remember I have a great team around me.''
The scale is epic. Particularly because part of the story is shaped by the events of the First World War. But White doesn't define Parade's End as a war drama. Far from it. She sees it as a love story.
''I think Tom has filleted this very complicated novel and at the heart of our piece of work is a love triangle, and I think a changing portrait of Britain, with all these women trapped in their gilded cages at the beginning.
''In the 10-year span of Parade's End we see [that] the world changes and all the values that Christopher stood for are blown apart by the events of the war, just as people were physically blown apart by mechanised war. In that sense, the war serves as something of a catalyst, for the changing of people and the changing of the values of society.''
In the middle of this set we find Clemens, the 22-year-old Australian actor who was plucked from the crowd to bring Valentine to life. Clemens secured the role after being told the producers wanted an English actor. ''In the end I sent an email and I said I can't put this to rest, can I have 15 minutes of your time; 15 minutes became three and a half hours and here I am,'' she says.
Clemens is best known to Australian audiences as Harper in John Edwards' critically acclaimed pay TV drama Love My Way. She says the apprenticeship served her well. ''The John Edwards dramas have such an authenticity to them, the characters are so multifaceted, and they're these kind of very everyday scenarios that are so real they're overwhelming,'' she says.
''That experience, those actors, they all swept me off my feet. I feel the exact way being here with Benedict [Cumberbatch], Rebecca Hall, Stephen Graham and Anne-Marie Duff. It's amazing.''
Clemens describes Valentine as a woman ahead of her time. ''She has incredible morals, but she's seen the world, she's been into London, been a part of the suffragette movement.''
In a sense, she is destined to become Christopher's mistress, but Clemens loved the moral absolutism of the relationship. ''They've done nothing to damage Sylvia and Christopher's relationship. If they could turn off the switch and not be in love that would be great, but they can't.''
It isn't long before Clemens is called back to filming, and the master himself appears - Sir Tom Stoppard, playwright and great thinker, an unlikely presence on a TV set, largely because he seems so serious.
He agreed to take on Parade's End because he loved the book. ''But it's more than a war story,'' Stoppard says. ''And it's more than a love story. It's about the loss of idealism, about life in the upper echelon of London society but most of all it's about the individuals, all of whom are interesting in different ways.''
Stoppard wrote his adaptation by hand, trying to assemble a story told (in the novel) out of linear sequence into one that made chronological sense. ''I don't think you should begin until you are saturated and immersed in it and reading it isn't quite enough,'' he says. ''It's built like a Russian doll.''
This is his first live TV set and he seems rather pleased with the experience. Very often, he says, he is surprised when an actor interprets a line in an unexpected way. ''It makes me feel like I have a very conventional mind.''
Sir Tom Stoppard, television producer? ''This is not typical,'' he insists. ''I have never ever been to a set in my life. It's ruining my life. I am supposed to be writing a play because I haven't written one in a while,'' he says, laughing. ''What am I doing here?''
Parade's End premieres on Wednesday at 8.30pm on Channel Nine.

European Space Agency (ESA), French Agence Spatiale Européenne (ASE), European space and space-technology research organization founded in 1975 from the merger of the European Launcher Development Organisation (ELDO) and the European Space Research Organisation (ESRO), both established in 1964. Members include Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. Estonia, Hungary, and Slovenia have signed cooperative agreements with ESA in preparation for eventual full membership. In 1981 Canada signed a special cooperative agreement, which enables it to participate in some ESA projects. Headquarters of the agency are in Paris.
Representatives of ESA's member nations form the agency's policy-making council. A science program committee established by convention deals with matters related to the mandatory science program; other such bodies may be formed by the council to assist in decision making. The chief executive and legal representative of ESA is the director general, assisted by an inspector general and the directors of various departments.
The principal components of the organization are (1) the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC), located in Noordwijk, Netherlands, which houses the satellite project teams and testing facilities and is the agency's main space science and technological research centre, (2) the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC), located in Darmstadt, Germany, which is concerned with satellite control, monitoring, and data retrieval, (3) the European Space Research Institute (ESRIN), located in Frascati, Italy, which supports the ESA Information Retrieval Service and the Earthnet program, the system by which remote sensing images are retrieved and distributed, (4) the European Astronaut Centre (EAC), located in Cologne, Germany, which is a training centre, and (5) the European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC), located in Villafranca del Castillo, Madrid, Spain, which holds scientific operations centres as well as archives. ESA also operates the Guiana Space Centre (CSG), a launch base in French Guiana.
ESA has cooperated with the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on many projects and, on its own, was responsible for the Giotto space probe, which enabled examination of the core of Halley's Comet in 1986. ESA also developed the Ulysses spacecraft (launched 1990) to explore the Sun's polar regions and the Ariane series of launch vehicles, and it established a system of meteorological satellites known as Meteosat. At the beginning of the 21st century, ESA launched the Mars Express orbiter and its lander, Beagle 2. With the launching of the Columbus laboratory on the International Space Station in 2008, ESA became a full partner in the operation of the station. In 2009 ESA launched Planck, a satellite that is designed to study the cosmic microwave background, and Herschel, an infrared observatory that is the largest telescope in space.

Well until this morning I thought I was the only person in the UK who couldn't care less whether Bisping wins or loses. However, I was still curious enough to come on here and learn the news.
I was puzzled that it was devoid of comment and then looked at the UFC website. Then I heard in my head the old football chant (to the tune of "She'll be coming round the mountain") "Oh it's all gone quiet over there?.........."
Where are the usual haters, admirers of Bisping's undoubted skill (I recognise that but I am ambivalent about the prospect of him becoming the first British UFC champ), and those quasi racists who would support absolutely anyone over an American as long as he happened to have a UK passport.

Noobie here! Ok so I have a friends AP I am trying to get into (with his consent of course) and he has MAC filtering enabled on his AP. During my initial testing I was able to get into mine and his without MAC filtering enabled but now that it is I am not getting anywhere. Now I am assuming that what I need to do is spoof my MAC to look like an authorized one, basically watch the network traffic of that AP and then fake my MAC as one that connects to it, is this correct? Also I am doing the following cmd and checking the file it creates for any new station info but nothing is showing yet. Granted I do know hes at work right now so his PC might not even be on.
airodump-ng -c 6 --bssid xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -w stuff mon0
Now I do not know if he has any devices on and connected to this AP at this time so I am assuming that in order for me to see anything there would need to be a device on and connected to the device at the time I am looking at the traffic? Or am I just going about this wrong? Maybe there is a better way for me to check for an authorized MAC connecting to the AP?
Thanks for any pointers!

FANNING SPRINGS - Fanning Springs State Park belonged to bicyclists last Friday, April 4, as some 650 pedalers - a lot no doubt tired and sore - pulled into the 50-acre natural wonder on the Suwannee River to mark the end of a six-day, 300-mile trip from Clearwater.
The "Gulf Coast Trail Link Tour 2008" is part of Bike Florida's 15th anniversary.
Bikers from all over the Sunshine State as well as many northern states enjoyed lunch, a shower and just plain rest under balmy conditions.

Israeli and world leaders alike recalled the complexity of former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's duality as both a fierce fighter and a peacemaker during his funeral on Jan. 13.
JERUSALEM — Former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was remembered as a man of courage and strength both on the battlefield and in the political arena during his public funeral.
"Sharon was a complex man who lived in complex times in a complex neighborhood," U.S. Vice President Joe Biden said during the memorial ceremony on Jan. 13 at the Knesset plaza in Jerusalem.
Sharon, said Biden, "engendered strong opinions. But like all historic leaders, he had a North Star that guided him. The North Star which he never – in my observation – deviated from. His North Star was the survival of the State of Israel and the Jewish people. "
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who currently serves as the ambassador of the Mideast Peace Quartet, recalled that Sharon was not comfortable in formal meetings, tending to repeat himself or read from prepared texts. Blair said that when Sharon accepted an invitation to his home for dinner he saw "a different Arik – warm hearted, humorous and charming, and passionate."
Blair said that despite agreeing to the Road Map for Peace, evacuating Gaza settlements and forming the centrist Kadima Party, Sharon's "strategic goal never wavered: (Israel) had to be protected for future generations. When that meant fighting, he fought. When that meant making peace, he sought peace with the same iron determination."
Israeli President Shimon Peres called Sharon "a friend, a leader, a military chief." He continued: "Arik, you were a rare man. You turned the impossible into great opportunities. Rest in peace, great leader."
Sharon and current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not always agree with each other, Netanyahu admitted during his eulogy, but they served in each other's governments and supported each other "for Israel's sake," he said.
Netanyahu called Sharon "one of the greatest generals that the Jewish people and the Israel Defense Forces had ever known."
Shimon "Kacha" Kahaner, who fought alongside Sharon in the fabled Unit 101 in the 1950s, called Sharon, "my commander, teacher and rabbi."
"Arik's strength came from his love of the land, and from what the land gave him. It was a two-way relationship," Kahaner recalled.
Ze'ev "Zambish" Hever, a settler leader and close Sharon friend called Sharon a "hero of Israel," and called his last two years in office, referring to the expulsion from Gaza settlements, "painful and difficult."
"The questions go unanswered. But as you commanded, we will not give up. We will not give up," he said.
Some 1,000 guests attended the public funeral, including Knesset members, cabinet ministers, the military leadership, and 21 delegations from other countries.
Sharon's casket was taken to the Latrun Armored Corps Museum and Memorial, where 15 Israel Defense Forces major generals saluted the late military and political leader. Some drivers stopped on the highway for the procession, got out of their cars and saluted the military vehicle as it drove by; others filmed it on their cellphones.
The convoy then continued to Sharon's Sycamore Ranch in the Negev, for a private funeral attended by family and close friends, after which Sharon was buried next to his wife, Lily.
Toward the end of the funeral the IDF confirmed that two rockets had been fired from the Gaza Strip into Israel.
"As the entire nation mourned the passing of
#ArielSharon, #Gaza terrorists took the opportunity to fire two rockets at southern #Israel," read the IDF's official Twitter account.
The rockets both struck open areas without causing any damage but were symbolically aimed in the direction of Sharon's Sycamore farm where the funeral was taking place.
In response to the attacks, the Israeli Air Force struck two terror sites located in the Gaza Strip.
"Hamas and its terrorist servants are not immune; it is our moral obligation and calling to protect Israel against such atrocious acts," said an IDF Spokesman.

PHOTO: Britney Spears Flaunts Her Super Fit Body In New Photo Shoot
Listen to Britney Spears Radio on iHeartRadio
Kanye West may have just called Britney Spears dumb and boasted that he's "the smartest celebrity you've ever f*****g dealt with," but the Princess of Pop is too busy launching her own lingerie line and keeping her flawless gym body in tip-top shape to care.
The Holy Spearit showed off her super fit physique in a sneak-peak of a new photo shoot posted on Facebook earlier today, revealing the fruits of a hard workout regime to get back into peak condition for her Vegas residency.
The 32-year-old wrote, "Been working hard this summer! So ready to bring it for the next round of #PieceOfMe shows next week."
Work, b**ch!

Yes, that is really how far to the right you have to be a right-winger who does not trust Fox News.
Dizdarevic testified in 2003 that he and a trust for his children owned 100 percent of Jet Set.
Bruce Springsteen is fond of reminding his listeners to "trust the art, not the artist."
How do you trust what has become a breeding ground for hate speech and fraudulent talk?
Polls suggest the public does not care for our policies and they do not trust our politicians.
Happy to meet you again, Mr. Carew; I trust you don't forget me.'
When she got through he thanked her and said it was always wise to trust a woman's intuition.
"I trust that there can be no mistake upon that point, at least," replied he.
No; upon deliberation, I have too much charity to trust you to yourself.
I love him with every fibre of my whole being, and yet I cannot trust him.

Hahah nah there shit excuses!
My best one is "im having my tea" "my shorts are dirty"
Even got a t shit made by pro fighter Jamie Taylor as proof!
Lmao Paul!
I have no experience mma training, but I do BJJ twice a week. and muay thai 4 times a week.
Put as much effort in as possible mate, the more you put in, the more you get out of it at the end. Don't cut corners and or do it half arsed. It will impress the instructor when he sees your not there to mess about.
Listen very intently, if your not sure of how to do something, ASK! The instructor is there to help, rather than go through and do it how you want to do it, just listen, try it, and ask if your not sure. Better off learning it right the first time.
Have fun, its there to enjoy, don't think about it too much, ^^you probably knew these anyway, just to re-iterate them and make sure you get the most out of it. Everyone was knew once, and as long as you do the above, you'll be fine pal.
Don't listen to Paul Jono He's undergoing proffesional mental help.
How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies
Don't be affraid to tap, the more you get tapped the more you will learn and be able to tap others. Plenty of people still have an ego when it comes to MMA but the best thing you can learn is to forget your ego, loosen up && be readyy to learn. Train hard and you'll get out what you put in!

I'm not going to lie, there was a time not-so-long-ago that I didn't really get fennel.
Its shape intimidated me and its texture and strong aniseed flavor when raw were kind of turn off.
So I left the cream-colored bulbs alone for a while.
But my curiosity was stoked when Mr. F and I started watching old episodes of Australian Masterchef (you know, to assimilate into this cooking show-loving country.)
Turns out, every chef and judge that came through those kitchen doors freaking loves fennel. It's the cool, cheffy vegetable that when used, the contestant would get mad props for such "clever cooking" or "understanding flavors."
Mad. props. yo.
Inspired, I gave fennel another try.
Following my compulsion to roast nearly every vegetable under the sun, I gave it the old…well, roasting treatment. Obviously.
And that's the story of how I discovered the real-life (non-reality tv) joys of fennel.
Each week when we're at the farmer's market, F lobbies for a fennel purchase and I'm always happy to oblige. I kind of love it that he loves this weird-looking vegetable as much as I do. It makes me feel like I've accomplished something, somehow.
While my default way to cook fennel will probably always be roasting, I've found that pan roasting/caramelizing can be another excellent alternative.
This salad is a great combination of sweetness from the caramelized fennel, tart citrus from the blood oranges, saline bite from the black olives and peppery kick from the arugula. Perfect for your weekly fennel fix!
Caramelized Fennel & Blood Orange Salad
– 1 large fennel bulb, cut into thin slices
– olive oil
– salt
– 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
– 1 blood orange, segmented (juice reserved for the dressing)
– 4 large handfuls of arugula
– 1-2 tablespoons sliced black olives
To caramelize fennel, heat oil in a large skillet over a medium high heat. Add fennel and toss to coat in olive oil. Pour in the balsamic vinegar and a pinch of salt. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring only once or twice and adding a tablespoon or two of water if the pan looks dry. You want the fennel to get some nice color on it, so stirring it only occasionally is important.
Allow the fennel to cool and arrange your salad with the remaining ingredients. Toss with Blood Orange Vinaigrette (see below).
Blood Orange Vinaigrette
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
– 1 tablespoon blood orange juice (from the pith of the segmented orange)
– 1 teaspoon honey
– salt and pepper
Place all ingredients together in a jar with a lid and shake well to combine. Serve over the salad and store remainder in the fridge for 2-3 days.

Funny thing that... the DVDs aren't even available yet.
OK, well, I overhear all this talk about online sites like crunchyroll.com. Let's go there...
Which means people are fans of illegal shows. Wow... I am shocked that this many people are illegally downloading these shows - I can't tell you how many people I've met on this forum that list Hetalia as one of their favorite shows.
Shouldn't fans be SUPPORTING the thing they are a fan of? I know our pockets are lighter than ever, but I mean, come on, you guys can't even wait until these shows are put online legally?
I feel like I'm "missing out" on all the references to these shows at cons and on the forums - and my natural instinct is to go watch the show. But if we're fans of something illegal, do I really want to be a part of that fandom?

Board approves FY13 budget that emphasizes student graduation, high-demand programs
Operating and capital requests next go to Gov. Parnell
The University of Alaska Board of Regents approved an overall budget request for the upcoming fiscal year that emphasizes more and better student advising and a continuation of the tough battle to reduce deferred maintenance across the 16-campus UA System.
The FY13 operating budget, which now goes to Gov. Sean Parnell for his consideration, focuses on high-demand job training in engineering, health and biomedical fields, teacher education and workforce development. The regents met on the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus Nov. 2.
The operating budget for UA reflects a number of internal cost-control measures taken in recent months, including a $7 million cost avoidance in the employee health-care plan, reductions in certain fixed costs and an effort to hold down utility cost increases as much as possible.
"I really think the administration is doing a pretty good job of containing costs," said Regent Tim Brady of Anchorage.
Public testimony touched on a wide range of issues, including strong support from engineering firms for new engineering buildings at UAA and UAF, which are the top new academic construction priority in UA's 10-year capital improvement plan. Several public and private employers spoke about the need for energy research for Alaska, which is included in the board's FY13 capital request. Still others spoke in favor of a veterinarian school partnership with Colorado State University, funding for which is included in the FY13 operating budget.
The proposed capital budget continues the UA System's emphasis on tackling deferred maintenance, with no new construction projects proposed for FY13. Under the capital plan, UA would put $137.5 million toward deferred maintenance, spread out across the system based on a formula that takes into account building age and other factors. The capital budget also supports Alaska-focused energy research, including energy technology testing and development, energy analysis and fossil fuel research. Arctic oil spill response and ocean acidification impacts on Alaska fisheries would receive a share of state funding under the board-endorsed capital request.
The board also gave permission for Mat-Su College to move ahead with detailed planning and design for the new Valley Center for Arts & Learning in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley, not to exceed $20 million. Alaska voters endorsed the project in a general obligation bond last year.
The new building will provide a music classroom, a drama lab, instrument storage, display areas, study areas and a theater large enough for 500 people. Mat-Su College enrollment has grown considerably in recent years, as has the population of the Mat-Su Borough, but the college can only house about 120 people in one venue--the cafeteria. College Director Talis Colberg called the project "transformational" in allowing the campus to serve as a public square for the community. The new center also provides additional space for the region's medical community to conduct training and continuing education.
Regents tune in

Expanded Engineering facilities needed

Support for staff
UAF Staff Council President Pips Veazey speaks in favor of President Gamble's 3.5 percent across-the-board increase for non-unionized staff members. A majority of board members agreed.

Superhero Sexism
Ever since I was little I've loved superheroes and action adventure stories. Whether it was a story about fighting the world's darkest wizard in Harry Potter, teaming with The Avengers to save New York City, or becoming a master Pokémon trainer like Ash, I wanted to be the main character with the power to save the day. While aspiring to be a hero from stories like Harry Potter, The Avengers and Pokémon is a great way to build heroic qualities, my issue is that I've always found myself wanting to be a guy. I wanted to be Iron Man in the suit, not Pepper Potts. Why would you want to be the over protective girlfriend when you could be a daring, charming, genius in a nearly indestructible flying suit?

Christine Milne formal declaration that the alliance is all over with Labor doesn't change much in practice. She has pledged to continue to vote against any no-confidence motion and for supply, and many of the bills the government needs to pass in the few remaining sitting weeks before the election are things the Greens would be inclined to support anyway.
But it does free both Labor and the Greens to say what they really think about each other.
Labor's kind of been doing that ever since it decided to try to shore up its ''battler base'' by accepting the Coalition's lines that employment and environmental protection were somehow incompatible. (Remember Julia Gillard saying the Greens were just a ''party of protest'' who would ''never embrace Labor's delight at sharing the values of everyday Australians''.)
But Labor strategists were gleefully saying that now they could really go all out in the pitch for the blue-collar worker. The national secretary of the Australian Workers Union, Paul Howes, immediately accused Senator Milne of sour grapes over the government's decision to heritage list almost none of Tasmania's Tarkine wilderness. Labor has clearly calculated that decision is a plus in its marginal Tasmanian seats.
Senator Milne could fully ventilate her view that the big miners have become so powerful and so close to the major parties that they are threatening our very democracy. The Greens appear to have calculated the mining tax that raises no money somewhat undermines Labor's bona fides when it makes a similar claim about the Coalition.
Senator Milne also claimed credit for the carbon price and said it would never have happened if Labor had won in its own right, undermining Labor's ability to claim kudos for the politically damaging policy achievement and giving credence to the same point every time it is made (in a negative way) by the Coalition.
And Tony Abbott? He just stays small target, insisting that the Coalition offers ''real solutions'' to the ''real problems'' faced by Australians, without saying in detail what they are. Oh, and accusing the other parties of relentless negativity.
