Magazine Press (PICS) – Freedom Ride
This has been a good month for the Black kids on Bikes. We got some pretty great press in a bicycle magazine called Momentum. You can read the article here.
There was also a significantly long article on me, the black kids on bikes, some of my past work and my plans for the future in ALARM Magazine. My scanner is literally being held together by tape so you'll have to go out and buy the issue. It's the one with OM on the cover. My name is on the top right, next to Ian Svenonius'.

White Lies Black Sheep Review
Title: White Lies, Black Sheep
Artist: James Spooner (director)
Label: Renew Media
Catalog No.: N/A (no commercial DVD release)
Date: 2007
White Lies, Black Sheep is the work of James Spooner, a modern day Renaissance man. In addition to being an independent filmmaker and producer, Spooner has sculpted, promoted records, built custom-made bicycles, danced in an iPod commercial, founded the Afro-Punk Festival in Brooklyn, and co-founded the Freedom Rides-an organized bicycle ride supporting black community building in Los Angeles. His most recent projects include tattoo art and fatherhood.
Spooner's own experiences with alienation and negotiating multiple identities have served as the motivation behind both of his films. Although Spooner has spent most of his post-toddler days living on the West and East Coasts of America, he was born in the Caribbean nation of Saint Lucia to a black father and a white mother. In an interview with Konstantin from Defkon City Presents, Spooner describes how he had always thought of Saint Lucia as home until he returned there for a visit. Initially immune to the exclusionary forces he faced as one of the only black people in a predominantly white punk scene, Spooner found this visit to be a life-altering experience. He quickly discovered that he knew little about life and culture in Saint Lucia and that there his biracial identity caused people to label him as a white outsider.
Spooner's desire to fit in caused him not only to re-evaluate his racial identity, but to question how he could be so involved and politically active in a predominantly white punk world without addressing its glaring racial issues. This new racial consciousness inspired his creation of the film Afro-Punk, which Spooner used to open communication among black members of the punk community. The film soon developed a cult following and served as the driving force behind the first Afro-Punk Festival in 2005.
After the success of his documentary film Afro-Punk, Spooner has released his first narrative film. Promoted as a semi-autobiographical tale or a pseudo-documentary, White Lies, Black Sheep closely parallels Spooner's own experiences. The main character, Ajamu "AJ" Talib, is a concert promoter for the underground rock scene in Brooklyn, New York. Much like Spooner, the seed for AJ's awakening is planted by a visit home-although in this case the visit is to his father's apartment as opposed to his home country. During his train trip to the apartment, AJ is clearly uncomfortable as he tries to blend in with other black community members. He even goes so far as to hide his punk hairstyle when the other passengers heckle his appearance and accuse him of thinking that he's white. Once at the apartment, AJ's father confronts him over his involvement in the punk scene and his need to educate himself about black issues.
Throughout the film, AJ receives pressure from both his white friends and members of various black communities to conform to black social norms. People criticize his clothing and hair (when he doesn't hide it) and his best friend encourages him to adopt an afro hairstyle, listen to R&B, read Malcolm X, and date black women.
After two failed attempts to start a relationship, AJ's internal crisis goes into overdrive and he gradually begins to give in under social pressure to conform. He starts to explore black social venues and to study the lives and works of Fela Kuti and Malcolm X. When AJ starts getting too close to his best friend's black girlfriend and attempts to incorporate black dancers into the shows he promotes, the racist backlash from his friends and the club owner severely shakes his devotion to the rock scene.
Perhaps one of the more interesting aspects of the film is the integration of Spooner himself into the film. Playing the role of a documentary cameraman, Spooner refuses to remain a detached observer. He almost plays the role of the film's antagonist as he forcibly documents the darkest moments of AJ's downward spiral of self-destruction. By not allowing him to turn away from his own inner turmoil, the camera serves as a catalyst for AJs final crisis. Whether Spooner is ultimately a demon tearing AJ's life away or an angel facilitating his rebirth by forcing him to recognize and let go of the things that are hurting him, however, is a matter of perspective.
Unfortunately, White Lies, Black Sheep doesn't appear to be available to the general consumer market as of yet (although you can purchase educational copies through the Afro-Punk website for around $300-extremely reasonable as far as educational sales go). If you're local to Bloomington, however, you can catch the film for free at 7:00 PM on Friday, 6 Nov. 2009 as part of the City Lights & Underground film series. More details on the screening are available on the City Lights & Underground website.
As part of the Reclaiming the Right to Rock conference on Friday, 13 Nov. 2009, Spooner will participate in a Q&A session following a free screening of Afro-Punk. See the official conference website for details.
PRESS – Afropunk on NBC
As usual mainstream reporting leaves much to be desired but hey who'd a thunk afropunk would make it on NBC news ?
James Spooner on Grit TV w/ Laura Flanders on Vimeo
I was on a half hour political web show called Grit TV with host laura flanders in conjunction with the afro-punk fest .
Below is the text from her website.
"This week the Afro-Punk Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music takes center stage. James Spooner, festival organizer and filmmaker joins us in our studio to discuss his new film White Lies, Black Sheep and the complex world of punk rock music.Spooner's first film, Afro-Punk is part personal odyssey and part chronicle of a musical scene that has informed his life. Born in the Caribbean nation of Saint Lucia and raised in America, Spooner has straddled many worlds. The DIY punk scene was a kind of refuge for the young activist. But he didn't question his own identity in that world until he returned to St. Lucia at the age of 22. It was the final breaking point he says.In this interview Spooner discusses being Black in the largely white world of punk music, his love/hate relationship with the whole scene, and why punk rock really raised him. Check out the eclectic Afro-Punk festival, a celebration of film and music at theBrooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) this week in Brooklyn, NY."James Spooner was interviewed in this video.

The Associated Press
The New York Rangers are adding some offensive punch by agreeing to a one-year, $3 million contract with free agent forward Alexander Frolov (FSY).
The 28-year-old winger is joining New York on Tuesday after spending his first seven NHL seasons with the Los Angeles Kings. Frolov has scored more than 20 goals five times — including two 30-goal seasons — but is coming off a disappointing one in which he had only 19 goals and 32 assists in 81 games.
He earned $4 million last season when he scored his fewest goals since scoring 14 in his rookie season of 2002-03.
FREE AGENCY: Tracker for offseason moves
ARBITRATION SCORECARD: Status on all 31 cases
The Kings later Tuesday said they have agreed to terms with winger Alexei Ponikarovsky, a four-time 20-goal scorer, on a one-year, $3 million deal. He played for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Pittsburgh Penguins last season but had only two goals in Pittsburgh after scoring 19 with Toronto.
"I hope it's going to be a long-term relationship after one year," Ponikarovsky said. "This was the first time I ever experienced the free agency process, and so it was both exciting and tough. I'm happy it's over, and that I know the team I'm going to be playing for next season. It's a young team playing great hockey. I've followed the team, how they play and where they are at, so I know it's going to be an exciting year."
Frolov has 24 career multigoal games, including three NHL hat tricks. In 536 regular-season NHL games, Frolov — who can play on either wing — has 168 goals and 381 points. He is expected to play alongside Marian Gaborik, the Rangers' top offensive threat, who had 42 goals and 86 points in his first season with New York.
"Alex is a highly skilled player who we feel will play a key role in improving our offense and play in all situations," Rangers general manager Glen Sather said in a statement. "He is strong competitor and has the ability to play either wing position."
The Rangers are banking on Frolov returning to the form he showed two seasons ago when he led the Kings with 32 goals — 12 on the power play — and was second on the club with 59 points. It was the third time he topped Los Angeles in goals.
Frolov established career highs of 35 goals and 71 points during the 2006-07 season.
He has proven to be durable throughout his career as he has played at least 71 of 82 regular-season games in all but one season. Frolov played a low of 69 games during the 2005-06 season, but still managed 21 goals and 54 points.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the Kings had approached Frolov about returning after they had fallen short in the negotiations for Ilya Kovalchuk.
According to the Times, his work ethic was questioned by coach Terry Murray, who sat him out of the lineup for an early-season game. That snub was cited by Frolov's Russian agent as a reason he didn't want to stay.
The deal for Ponikarovsky still leaves the Kings roughly $10 million under the NHL salary cap, but with relatively few significant free agents remaining in the NHL pool. Los Angeles also has discussed trades for a top scorer with several teams.
Ponikarovsky is a solid two-way forward who handled a significant offensive role with the woeful Leafs while playing at least 66 games in each of the past six seasons. He scored a career-high 61 points for Toronto in 2008-09, including 23 goals.
The former fourth-round draft pick played in 11 postseason games with the Penguins last spring, scoring five points.
"I'm 6-foot-4 and 230 pounds, and I know what my game is," Ponikarovsky said. "I have to use my size and basically go hard to the net — take the puck there, protect the puck in the corners and finish my checks, all the basic stuff that a guy my size has to do, along with scoring some goals and helping my team win."
Moulson, Brule avoid arbitration
New York Islanders left wing Matt Moulson (FSY) has agreed to a one-year, $2.45 million contract.
The agreement was announced Tuesday by general manager Garth Snow (FSY) and allowed the Islanders to avoid arbitration. Snow says Moulson played an "integral" role last season and is part of the team's young core of players.
Moulson led the Islanders with a career-high 30 goals while making $575,000. His 48 points were fourth on the team. Moulson was one of three Islanders to play all 82 games. He led the team with five game-winning goals.
Edmonton Oilers forward Gilbert Brule also settled before his arbitration hearing. Canada's TSN.ca said the deal was worth $3.7 million over two years.

I got up first thing this morning and made note of all of the things that I am grateful for:
1. Waking up this morning 2. Having my health and strength
3. Knowing the true God Jehovah 4. Knowing thy-Self 5. Staying conscious 6. Having a great support system i.e. family and friends
7. Being capable of loving 8. Helping others
9. Being able to laugh, sing and dance and love!
10. Knowing what is real and what isn't.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Stood for something. He rocked the world with his greater since of mutual respect for all of humanity. He lived his life, making conscious choices, working towards "the greater good" of mankind. He preached the importance of judging one by the "content of their character" - not their skin type. That is deep.
Thank you, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and those that marched with you, and those that existed before you, that paved the way so that I can try and make this place a better space for the generations that follow...
I got up this morning, April 4, got all dressed up and listened to some Stevie Wonder and had a glow and an inner smile in my heart. Reflecting on a day, not so long ago, that my friend Debbie came by my office and we went to lunch - Italian food. Debbie is conscious of the ugliness that has plagued this nation for generations, racism, a disease that has caused the demise of so many people. So, my friend Debbie, brought me a flower, to celebrate MLK's B-Day. We, as friends, are living the MLK Jr. Dream. She and I smiled and reflected on the fact that not so long ago, 30 years ago or so, we could not have shared the same table. Why? Because she is a blond hair blue eyed white
(Anglo-Saxon descent) American, and I am an black (West African descent) American.
Today it was not even an issue as we entered the restaurant in Beverly Hills, CA., and sat down to
"break bread". Now, that's progress!
Today, due to the many sacrifices of so many black, white, red, yellow and brown Americans -
we can sit down to a meal and not get arrested. We can live together as neighbors and not harm one another. You see, as fellow human beings, we have more in common then we have differences.
Let's think about how we can come together and let go of the hatred that is being stirred up like embers from a flame that burns in a low undertone here in the USA, and just when it looks like the flames have died, someone waves the flames, hoping to re-ignite the fire. Enough.
Let's reflect on the life one man, that died in the name of progress, so that you and I can live and work, shoulder to shoulder, helping one another, not trying to destroy each other.
Let's have more respect for one another, be patient with one another, feed one another kindness - shall we?
Love & light, C
(updated/edited/from a 2/ 09, 2/12 post | no intentional copyright infringement.)
This blog is dedicated to finding a commonality that connects us all globally. I've developed this mathematical equation that equates success to me. It goes like this: music, arts, entertainment, good food, good health, lots of laughter, happiness, and most of all, L-O-V-E (of self/family/friends) = the best quality of life! So, I stand on my soap box and express my thoughts. May they enlighten and strengthen you.

Economic reports paint mixed picture of modest recovery
NEW YORK – Three economic reports Thursday again reflected a mixed view of a modestly recovering economy that is unlikely to begin creating jobs in the near term.
The economy grew at a tepid annual rate of 1.7% in the April-June quarter. Many economists expect growth will hover around 2% in the second half of the year, a pace too weak to lower the unemployment rate.
Stocks fell after the reports were released Thursday.
Thursday's reports:
• The number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits was unchanged last week at a seasonally adjusted 374,000, suggesting slow improvement in the job market. The Labor Department says the four-week moving average, a less volatile measure, increased to 370,250.
Unemployment applications have risen slightly the past three weeks. Last week's number was revised up to 374,000 from the 372,000 reported initially. That was a second straight increase.
Still, applications are lower than six weeks ago, raising hopes for the August employment report due Sept. 7. Employers added 163,000 jobs in July, not enough to lower the unemployment rate, which ticked up to 8.3% from June's 8.2%. July's hiring gains were an improvement from the previous three months, when the economy created 73,000 jobs a month on average.
Weekly unemployment claims
Analysts estimate the economy added 118,000 jobs in August and the unemployment rate will be unchanged.
• Americans spent at the fastest pace in five months in July after earning a little more, the Commerce Department said. The increase in personal income and consumer spending could help boost subpar growth.
Consumer spending rose 0.4% in July after being unchanged in June and declining in May. Income grew 0.3%, matching gains in May and June. Americans also earned 0.3% more after paying taxes.
The savings rate after taxes dipped to 4.2%. That's down from 4.3% in June, a level that had been the highest in a year. Economists believe Americans began saving more partly due to worries about a sharp slowdown in job growth earlier this year.
•U.S.retailers Thursday reported strong sales gains for August despite escalating worries about the anemic economic recovery.
Target, Costco Wholesale, Limited Brands and Macy's, which also operates Bloomingdale's, all reported results that beat Wall Street estimates. Among the stragglers was teen merchant Wet Seal, which suffered a worse-than-expected sales drop.
The figures are based on revenue at stores open at least a year and are a key indicator of a retailer's health because results from stores recently opened or closed are excluded.
The reports on retail sales and consumer spending and personal income are closely watched because consumer spending accounts for 70% of economic activity.

Nissan Forum Concept
Nissan's latest funky take on the minivan.
Clever details include the Forum's floating-dial dash, hidden-track sliding side doors, and a reinforced chassis without B-pillars. While the pillars would be added to a production vehicle, the other features are viable now, including a system that makes the sliding doors appear trackless both inside and out. While most minivans have three tracks: one on top, one in the rocker, and an invisible one in the middle of the door, the Forum has a major hinge and only two tracks, both of which are hidden in the door.
Time-Out Button
Options that are somewhat less appealing—at least for anyone not in the running for "Neurotic Parent of the Year"—include the "kids' cam" and the "time out" button. The kids' cam is exactly that: an elaborate system of cameras that offer the driver a CIA-like view of the kids in the rear seats. The time-out button located on the steering wheel is even more bizarre. With one press, the driver can mute all audio devices and broadcast his or her voice through an in-car intercom. It's a modern spin on the tried-and-true "don't make me turn this car around" system.
Under the hood, the front-engine, front-wheel-drive Forum has what Nissan refers to only as a "clean diesel" engine mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Nissan has already said that it will equip the next Maxima with an optional diesel engine in 2010.
Meanwhile, Renault, Nissan's parent company, has plenty of luxury-minivan expertise (via its Espace model) and a fine 3.0-liter V-6 diesel engine waiting in the wings, should Nissan opt for a little cross-product pollination. Either way, the Quest is due for replacement in 2009 or 2010, so look for a very unsquare new Nissan minivan about that time.

Previously I wrote an article that just looked at the net budgetary impact of whites and non-whites. Here I decided to break down the black and Hispanic numbers as well.
The most recent year with good data on everything is 2014. So that is the year all of these numbers are from.
Before getting into the methods, I'll first show the final impact of this so you can see what a big deal this is:
Budgetary Impact of Whites, Blacks and Hispanics in 2014
This takes into account taxes paid and government services consumed at both the State and Federal level. The "Equal Military" column treats military spending as a service consumed equally on a per-capita basis between blacks, whites and Hispanics. The "Static military" assigns all military spending to whites.
On net, whites generate a $249.52 billion surplus, or $1,260 per person if you assign 100% of military spending to whites. If you just give whites a proportional share of military spending, their surplus goes up to $553.52 billion total and $2,795 per capita.
Blacks, by contrast, run a budget deficit of $389.71 billion, or $10,016 per capita. If 100% of military spending is assigned to whites, blacks STILL run a $306.53 billion deficit, or $7,700 per capita.
Hispanics run a budget deficit of $411.95 billion or $7,289 per capita if military spending is proportional. If 100% of military spending is assigned to whites Hispanics run a deficit of $291.3 billion, or $5,160 per capita.
Race and Tax Revenue
So regarding the methodology, I first looked in several places to figure out how much each race paid in taxes, as the government doesn't keep such statistics. However, there are statistics collected by the tax foundation showing how much each income bracket pays in taxes.
And the census has data on income for each race and the proportion of brackets they are. And so using this, we can deduce how much each racial group pays in taxes:
This comes out to $4529.52 billion paid by whites, $528.30 billion paid by Hispanics, and $485.67 billion paid by blacks.
Race and Government Use
So how does that compare with services consumed? Well for Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and Welfare I was able to find racial breakdowns. But what about state spending? Roads, schools, trash pick-up, police? For all of that I lumped into "equal government" and assigned the cost of it on a population basis.
So as it happened, and this is something I thought going in, the race differences in government consumption are not a very big deal, and the real cause of the budgetary impacts of races is the difference in tax payment. I also found some data showing that whites made up 75% of millionaires, and I thought "ya know, based on this, whites overall probably pay around 75% of the taxes" – and I was correct.
Wage Impact of Racial Diversity
One thing people will say in response is that white wages are jacked up by having non-whites around. This doesn't appear to be true when you look at regions in the US:
So a big impact doesn't just pop out at you. And if there is a correlation between median white income in a state, or county, and the proportion of blacks and/or Hispanics in that state or county, well then the next step would be to show causality.
Another interesting thing to point out is that a Dutch meta-analysis of 384 studies on the impact of immigration on native wages in the United States and EU countries found that a 1% increase in immigrants as part of the labor force was associated with a 0.119% reduction in native wages.
But one thing to consider is correlation and causation. Just because a 1% increase in immigration is only associated with a 0.119% decrease in native wages doesn't mean that the actual impact is that small.
So we're looking at a small negative impact on wages, not the big positive impacts you would need for the libertarian story to hold water. I mean it's not stupid to believe in the absence of data; lower-skill people come in, earn wages, white people are freed for higher-earning labor. But it doesn't appear to be actually happening.
If you want to argue that the presence of blacks and Hispanics around white people drives up white wages, that's not something that is immediately obvious from the data, it's only intuitive if you to hold very pro-market priors. You need more than just "ideas that make sense" and connect-the-dots / painting-by-numbers economic narratives that libertarians like to spin, and then act as if they've actually discovered something.
The negative fiscal impact of blacks and Hispanics is significant. All of this discussion of a "national debt" and "deficit" is primarily of function of blacks and Hispanics. Without them, we would be running budget surpluses today, even when keeping the military the same size.

Hey guys. I was looking at stuff on the wiki, found Marceline's Mom, and started doing some thinking. This is just another crazy Adventure Time theory that I came up with. You guys can read it, and tell me what you think. So here it is:In this photo seen in "Return to the Nightosphere", obviously Hunson Abadeer is on the left, then there's Marceline in the center, and possibly Marceline's mom on the right. To me, what appears to be Marceline's mom on the right, actually appears more like Marceline. Also, I think it was confirmed that Marceline's mom was a human, right? So, I actually think the white person in the middle is actually Marceline's mom while Marceline is on the right. The reason Marceline's mom is shorter than marceline and Hunson is because she's very old. This would also explain why her skin is so white. So, if the woman on the right IS Marceline, notice she's apparently closer to her age now then right after the Great Mushroom War. This would mean Marceline's Mom SURVIVED the War, but grew very old while her family stayed the same because they are immortal. So, this would mean Marceline's mom died due to old age.
Of course there are flaws, and one would be directly in the photo. Marceline's skin is naturally pale and white while if Marceline is the woman on the right, her skin is grey like her Dad's.
I hope you liked the theory!

A Novel
Jennifer Weiner
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
An unexpected love story…
Jules Strauss is a Princeton senior with a full scholarship, acquaintances instead of friends, and a family she's ashamed to invite to Parents' Weekend. With the income she'll receive from donating her "pedigree" eggs, she believes she can save her father from addiction.
Annie Barrow married her high school sweetheart and became the mother to two boys. After years of staying at home and struggling to support four people on her husband's salary, she thinks she's found a way to recover a sense of purpose and bring in some extra cash.
India Bishop, thirty-eight (really forty-three), has changed everything about herself: her name, her face, her past. In New York City, she falls for a wealthy older man, Marcus Croft, and decides a baby will ensure a happy ending. When her attempts at pregnancy fail, she turns to technology, and Annie and Jules, to help make her dreams come true.
But each of their plans is thrown into disarray when Marcus' daughter Bettina, intent on protecting her father, becomes convinced that his new wife is not what she seems…
With startling tenderness and laugh-out-loud humor, Jennifer Weiner once again takes readers into the heart of women's lives in an unforgettable, timely tale that interweaves themes of class and entitlement, surrogacy and donorship, the rights of a parent and the measure of motherhood.

Tough to get through this slo-moving book. Chapter breakdown presenting various characters viewpoints was disjointed and confusing til i finally figured who was who. Not enough development of characters. Not loving this one. My fave Weiner book is still Good in Bed.
Wonderful book!
I enjoyed this book so mych that I read it in one sitting!!!
Liked it a lot
I'm not what you'd call a big reader, so it isn't often that a book draws me in. I really liked this book. It was touching and even though the character changes in each chapter were harder to keep up with, it kept me interested the whole way through. Was sad when I got to the end of the book, I wanted to keep reading. The ending gives you closure to what happens in the future to the characters which I also liked.

Potential Upside in 2012: Over 15% to 20%, according to Jeffrey Sica, SICA Wealth Management manager. Stock Price (Jan. 23 Close): $47.46 TheStreet Ratings Grade: Buy. TheStreet Ratings team says although the company's third-quarter sales and net income grew compared with a year ago, it was unable to keep up with the average competitor's growth during that period. Sica's View: As an alternative energy business, TC Pipelines would benefit from a critical setback for Keystone, says Sica. And even without such as setback, TC Pipelines could rise 10% to 15% over the year given its substantial dividend payouts of over 5% and the steady demand for natural gas at record low prices.

New NSA revelations stir congressional concern
By KIMBERLY DOZIER
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — New revelations from leaker Edward Snowden that the National Security Agency has overstepped its authority thousands of times since 2008 are stirring renewed calls on Capitol Hill for serious changes to NSA spy programs, undermining White House hopes that President Barack Obama had quieted the controversy with his assurances of oversight.
An internal audit provided by Snowden to The Washington Post shows the agency has repeatedly broken privacy rules or exceeded its legal authority every year since Congress granted it broad new powers in 2008.
In one of the documents, agency personnel are instructed to remove details and substitute more generic language in reports to the Justice Department and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence — reports used as the basis for informing Congress.
Obama has repeatedly said that Congress was thoroughly briefed on the programs revealed by Snowden in June, but some senior lawmakers said they had been unaware of the NSA audit until they read the news on Friday. The programs described earlier vacuum up vast amounts of metadata — such as telephone numbers called and called from, the time and duration of calls — from most Americans' phone records, and scoop up global Internet usage data.
White House deputy press secretary Josh Earnest said Friday that the NSA documents showed that NSA's Compliance Office established in 2009 "is monitoring, detecting, addressing and reporting compliance incidents," and that "the majority of the compliance incidents are unintentional." In a statement from the Massachusetts island of Martha's Vineyard, where the president is vacationing, he added that the administration is "keeping the Congress appropriately informed of compliance issues as they arise."
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy announced he would hold hearings into the new disclosures.
"I remain concerned that we are still not getting straightforward answers from the NSA," the Vermont Democrat said in a statement.
Senate Intelligence Committee chairwoman Dianne Feinstein said her committee had been notified of compliance problems — not by seeing the internal audit but through legally required reports to her committee.
"In all such cases, the incidents have been addressed by ending or adapting the activity," the California Democrat said in a statement." She added, "The committee has never identified an instance in which the NSA has intentionally abused its authority to conduct surveillance for inappropriate purposes."
But she said that committee would be asking for additional reports in future, and members would start making routine trips to the NSA to oversee its activities.
Her Republican House counterpart, Intelligence chairman Mike Rogers, said human error was inevitable and "there was no intentional and willful violation of the law."
But the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger of Maryland, called the new disclosures "incredibly troubling." He said he had instructed his staff "to thoroughly review and evaluate these allegations."
Another Democratic member of the Intelligence Committee, Rep. Mike Thompson of California, said: "Reports that the NSA repeatedly overstepped its legal boundaries, broke privacy regulations and attempted to shield required disclosure of violations are outrageous, inappropriate and must be addressed."
House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, who generally supports the programs, said in a statement Friday that the new revelations "are extremely disturbing."
A week ago, Obama sought to soothe concerns by promising to consider reforms to NSA surveillance.
"It's not enough for me to have confidence in these programs," he said at a White House news conference. "The American people have to have confidence in them as well."
He announced changes such as convening an outside advisory panel to review U.S. surveillance powers, although it is unclear how that would differ from the existing U.S. Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board, mandated by Congress to monitor surveillance and constitutional concerns. Obama also said the NSA would hire a privacy officer — though the NSA already has a compliance office. None of those measures would seem likely to stop the kind of inadvertent collection of information that was described in the NSA audit.
Most of the infractions revealed late Thursday involve unauthorized surveillance of Americans or foreign intelligence targets in the United States, both of which are restricted by law and executive order, according to the May 3, 2012 audit, and other top-secret documents.
The May audit counted 2,776 incidents in the preceding 12 months of unauthorized collection, storage, access to or distribution of legally protected communications.
Most were reported to be unintended, and many involved failures to take sufficient care or violations of standard operating procedure.
They ranged from significant violations of law to typographical errors that resulted in unintended interceptions of U.S. emails and telephone calls.
The most serious incidents included a violation of a court order and unauthorized use of data about more than 3,000 Americans and green-card holders.
In the typographical error category, the Post cited a 2008 example of the collection of a "large number" of phone records from Washington, D.C., when a programming error confused the District of Columbia area code 202 for 20-2, the international dialing code for Cairo, according to a quality assurance review that was not distributed to the NSA's oversight staff.
The NSA also saw a spike in the number of "roamers," or overseas, phone calls wrongly tracked in the first quarter of 2012, when those roamers traveled into U.S. territory, which is outside NSA's authority. The report said the errors may have been due to tracking Chinese who were visiting friends and relatives for the Chinese lunar new year.
In another case, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, which has authority over some NSA operations, did not learn about a new collection method until it had been in operation for many months. The court ruled it unconstitutional.
The FISC's chief judge told the Post that the court could rule only on the material it was given.
"The FISC is forced to rely upon the accuracy of the information that is provided to the Court," U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton said in a written statement to the Post. "The FISC does not have the capacity to investigate issues of noncompliance, and in that respect the FISC is in the same position as any other court when it comes to enforcing (government) compliance with its orders."
The Associated Press made a request to Walton for that statement. A court official said the judge had no response.
The White House declined Friday to comment on the latest revelations. It directed questions to the National Security Council, and NSC spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden directed questions to the NSA.
NSA spokeswoman Vanee Vines said the number of incidents in the first quarter of 2012 was higher than normal, and that the number has ranged from 372 to 1,162 in the past three years, due to factors such as "implementation of new procedures or guidance with respect to our authorities that prompt a spike that requires 'fine tuning,' changes to the technology or software in the targeted environment for which we had no prior knowledge, unforeseen shortcomings in our systems, new or expanded access, and 'roaming' by foreign targets into the U.S., some of which NSA cannot anticipate in advance but each instance of which is reported as an incident."
"When NSA makes a mistake in carrying out its foreign intelligence mission, the agency reports the issue internally and to federal overseers — and aggressively gets to the bottom of it," Vines said.
When asked why the Post did not publish the story earlier, though the paper said it had the documents for months, spokeswoman Kris Coratti emailed Friday that "it has taken some time to study them and understand the information they contain."
The AP filed a Freedom of Information Act request to the NSA on June 17 asking for all copies of "minimization procedures" the agency uses to avoid collecting Internet and telephone data from U.S. citizens. That request sought documents that would also detail how the government purges records that may have been accidentally collected. The AP has yet to receive responsive material, though the NSA agreed to fast-track its request.
Associated Press writers Jesse J. Holland and Jack Gillum in Washington, Nedra Pickler from Martha's Vineyard, Mass., and Darlene Superville in West Tisbury, Mass., contributed to this report.

Creating a limited liability company, or LLC, is one of several ways to structure a business. The other choices are general, limited, or limited liability partnerships. A shareholder in an LLC is not personally liable for any of the debts of the company, other than for the money they invested in that company. In a general partnership, all partners manage the business and are personally liable for its debts. In limited partnerships, partners' liability is limited and they have no voice in the decision-making. And in a limited liability partnership (LLP), all partners have some degree of limited liability. A lawyer with LLC experience can help you determine if forming an LLC is advantageous and appropriate for your business. If you decide to form an LLC, the attorney can draft the paperwork you need to formalize your choice, including provisions for management, ownership transfers, and profit and loss distributions.

| AncientGreymon
|Appears in:
|Digimon Classic
|First appearance
| Chapter 2/Birth of a Leader (Foreshadowed Existence)
Chapter 3/A Royal Banquet (Continued Foreshadowing)
Chapter 4/A Legendary Secret (Debut)
|Taro (Forced)
Long before the Digital World's existence began in 1973, there used to exist another Digital World, one which was terrorized by an entity of pure fire incarnate; AncientGreymon. It was the living embodiment of everything that is Fire Element, and as such, is not only the most powerful Fire Attribute Digimon, but this also makes it the most powerful species of Greymon, even to the point of surpassing the later seen DeusGreymon in power. The reason as to how? DeusGreymon is unable to enter a rare state known as "Overclock", which allows the user to run at power levels beyond what they're limited to. No modern day Digimon is born with this ability, nor can any of them actually acquire it whatsoever. The only Digimon that have access to this ability are strictly the Ten Legendary Warriors in their own Ancient forms, not any of their weaker forms. When entering Overclock, AncientGreymon melts the entire landscape around it into a molten inferno, basically turning the surrounding area into a fiery corona. Compared to the other nine Legendary Warriors, AncientGreymon is almost always in it's Overclock state, and nothing, and literally nothing, will want to ever face AncientGreymon in it's limitless powered state. It ain't called "The Destroyer of Worlds" without a good reason, for it's the very cause of the destruction of the ancient Digital World, because it grew far too powerful with it's Overclock that it essentially incinerated the entire plain of existence.
Other Forms
Tokutaro "Taro" Kobayashi
Programmed into the Prototype Digivice by an unknown entity, AncientGreymon is forced into a dormant state, from which it slowly begins to free itself by essentially taking over Taro's mind bit by bit. AncientGreymon's personality slowly begins to turn Taro into a harsh, aggressive, and easily aggravated person, all the way until Taro completely goes berserk and transforms into AncientGreymon, finally freeing the ancient Digimon from it's dormant state. After a fierce, yet one-sided, battle with a mysterious entity, AncientGreymon goes back to being dormant due to Taro's mind taking back over, but now that nothing is truly restraining it anymore, AncientGreymon can potentially awaken yet again at any time, and the fact one of the Golden Guardians knows who he is doesn't help matters...

All these people care about is how much they can charge you, they could care less about your animals. My dog had a small cut below his eye and the recommended treatment was a $1400 surgery. i refused and the cut healed great in less than a week with no trauma to the dog of a surgery, clearly the best outcome. I would stay away from these guys for the sake of your wallet and animals.
When they took our cat into the back to take blod and we heard her yowling--then limp across the waiting room from whatever they had done to her we never came back--and wondered why we'd gone there for so long when we found the care so uneven.
+ service was not always bad but very uneven
- rough handling of our pet, lots of staff turnover

Five turbines out of six are currently operating at the Akosombo dam
A total of 257 megawatts of power is expected to be added to the national grid between October and November this year.
Out of that, two new power plants acquired and stationed at the Kpone Thermal Power Plants (KTPP) are expected to produce 220 megawatts, while another one at the Tema Thermal Power Complex (TTPC) is also expected to produce 37 megawatts.
The cost of the two projects, which will be running on gas and diesel, is estimated at $230 million, the greater part of it being internally generated funds (IGF) of the Volta River Authority (VRA).
This forms part of measures the authority is putting in place to increase power generation in the country as demand increases continually.
This was made known to the media after visiting facilities such as the KTPP, TTPC, the Kpong Generating Station (KGS) and the Akosombo Hydro Power Generating Station (AHPHS) on Thursday.
The visit was also meant to update the public on the current plans and activities the VRA is putting in place to provide stable and adequate power supply to the country.
Akosombo Dam
Meanwhile, the water level in the Akosombo Dam keeps dwindling, with the current level standing at 237.88 feet. The maximum operating level is 278.
The extreme minimum operating level is 235 feet. The water level is, however, expected to rise in three months.
Five turbines out of six are currently operating.
The Akosombo hydro station currently produced 636 megawatts of power, instead of the about 1000 megawatts, the Manager of Electricals at the station, Mr Ebo Amoah, told journalists during a briefing at the station.
Retrofitting project at Kpong
At the Kpong Power Station, a retrofitting project is being carried out to overhaul the major parts of the turbines and to replace some.
Briefing the media, the Mechanical Engineer on site, Mr Korsi McCarth, said the project, expected to be completed in 2017, was to ensure reliable operation and improvement in the operating capacity of the turbines for the next 30 years.
"The completion of the project will add only a little over 1.5 megawatts of power to the existing plants," he said, stressing that the overhauling exercise was necessary to keep the turbine plants always active.
With these measures being put in place, the Corporate Communications Manager of the VRA, Mr Samuel Fletcher, said he was hopeful that the December deadline given to resolve the power crises in the country would be met.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I was NEVER arrested, but had a misdemeanor charge that showed on my background check as pending.my attorney told me all charges will be dismissed because it was more than a year ago. I went to court and they were all dismissed. i was never arrested and all charges were dismissed i never plead guilty, no contest, or innocent. does that mean i was still convicted???
Based on what you said, you should not have any entry on your CII or NCIC rap sheet. My guess is that whoever did the background check found this through a search of the court records which are public record. However, your lawyer should be able to answer this for you.
Basically, a rap sheet entry occurs when you have been booked. Since you were not arrested, this should not have happened. However, if for some reason it did, then the dismissal did not get reported.
Talk to your lawyer about whether or not you are entitled to have a certificate of detention not arrest if the case was never filed or whether you can get a finding of factual innocence if the case was filed.
Having said all that, if the check was run by a private employer, it may be a violation of the Labor Code to take action on an arrest that did not result in a conviction. If the arrest is not open, then they cannot require that you disclose it and cannot punish you for failing to disclose it. If it is a law enforcement check or a federal matter of some sort, then you may have to disclose and explain.
In any event, talk to you lawyer and good luck!Ask a similar question
You were not "convicted" of the charge if you never pled guilty to the charge or went to trial on the charge and were convicted by a jury. You may have been technically "arrested" without knowing it if you were detained by police and given a citation. This may constitute and show as an arrest on your record. The charges were "pending" against you from the time they were filed with the court until they were dismissed.
It sounds like you were never notified of the charges or had knowledge they were pending until the background check was done. Since a year had gone by and you had no knowledge of the charge, the case would be dismissed by the Judge, because of the lack of prosecution by the DA. In other words, they filed a misdemeanor against you, but never brought you to Court within a year period of time. Congrats on the dismissal!Ask a similar question

Cause to Celebrate!
Our college minister (who also married us last June) and his wife have been in the adoption process for a little over a year and just found out that they get to bring home a little boy who is being born on May 15! They're going to be amazing parents, I'm so excited for them and can't wait to design their birth announcement. His name is going to be Lincoln, but I'm sure he'll be cuter than this one:

Mother's Day Gift
I just found the perfect personalized Mother's Day gift for my mother-in-law (who is the best mother-in-law ever). She collects spoons, so the second I saw this necklace by SpoonerZ I knew I'd have to get it. It's really affordable, too, which is great now that I have two moms to buy for! I'm thinking of maybe getting the numbers to her favorite verse engraved on it.

European Parliament Proposes New Rules for Safer Products and Better Market Surveillance
On 15 April 2014 the European Parliament voted in favor of new rules to improve the safety of consumer products on the EU market, including products imported from outside the EU.
Market surveillance will be stepped up to strengthen consumer protection and ensure a level playing field so that responsible manufacturers are not disadvantaged by unfair competition from non-compliant products.
Changes in EU Market Surveillance and Rules
Key changes approved by the European Parliament:
- The rules across all product sectors for manufacturers, importers and distributors will be clearer and more coherent to ensure the safety of all consumer products, leading to lower compliance costs for businesses.
- Safe and compliant products throughout the EU by means of a single set of coherent rules for market surveillance providing more effective tools for national surveillance bodies to enforce safety and take action against non-compliant products.
- Improved traceability enabling swift and effective responses to safety issues. Manufacturers and importers will have to ensure products or their packaging bears an indication of the country of origin of the product. Where products are manufactured in the EU, products may state the country of origin as the EU or a particular EU country.
- Better coordination of safety checks by the creation of a more cooperative system of market surveillance to eliminate unfair competition from dishonest or rogue traders.
- Streamlined procedures for the notification of dangerous products, and synergies between the existing Rapid Alert Information system (RAPEX) and the Information and Communication System for Market Surveillance (ICSMS).
With the agreement of the Council, Directive 2001/95/EC on general product safety and Council Directive 87/357/EEC on food-imitating products will be replaced by a new state-of-the-
The proposal will be submitted to the Council for its final approval. Once adopted by the Council the new legislation is expected to come into effect in 2015. Its rules will be enforced by the national market surveillance authorities in EU countries.

|unior agent Dustin Holloway gets called up the stairs to his bossВ' office. Austin Wolf is an intimidatingly handsome power broker, and Dustin is a bit nervous about making a good impression. Fortunately, Austin is happy to give Dustin a way to impress him.
As Dustin sits in the office chair, Austin undoes his belt and pulls out his monster cock. While Dustin wraps his lips around AustinВ's tool, Austin unbuttons his dress shirt, revealing massive arms, bulging pecs, and plenty of tattoos. Dustin moves up on to the desk so that Austin can return the oral favor, sucking DustinВ's cock and tugging on his low-hanging balls.
Throwing his leg over AustinВ's muscled shoulder, Dustin presents his ass for a rim job. After licking DustinВ's hole, Austin probes the tight entry with a finger and massages DustinВ's prostate.
Dustin turns over and assumes the doggy style position. Teasing DustinВ's ass with the tip of his cock, Austin finally thrusts inside with powerful strokes. DustinВ's firm ass wraps around AustinВ's girthy cock as he slides in and out.
Leaning back on a chair, Austin points his cock at the ceiling, and Dustin climbs on for a ride. As Austin thrusts up from below, Dustin uses his powerful legs to fuck himself on AustinВ's hard, pumping meat.
Jumping back up on the desk, Dustin takes AustinВ's cock missionary style and strokes himself until he cums on his treasure trail. Pulling out, Austin jerks out his load on DustinВ's stomach and leans in for a closing kiss.

text: When the phone was officially launched back in November, RIM promised us the BlackBerry Bold 9790 just after the new year. Well, it looks like that promise is about to come true.Although some networks have made vague noises about stocking the smartphone, online retailer Clove is the first to come forward with any concrete details. According to Clove's site, the BlackBerry Bold 9790 will land on 20 January (a week off), selling SIM-free for £342 including VAT.If that date is correct, we would expect the networks to follow soon after with contract deals. So far, O2 and Orange have confirmed they will be stocking the handset, although, as yet, neither has come forward with a price of date for availability.When it does land, the Bold 9790, which is an updated, thinner version of the popular Bold 9780, will feature both a touch-screen and QWERTY access, with BlackBerry OS 7 for the operating system and BBM, push email, a full version of Documents to Go, a five-megapixel camera and an NFC chip finishing off the main features.If you want it, you know where to go SIM-free. If you want a contract, sit tight and wait, it's not going to be long now.Source: Recombu

Unstoppable or Die Hard is a 1981 American action film directed by John McTiernan and written by Steven E. de Souza and Jeb Stuart, based on the 1979 novel Nothing Lasts Forever by Roderick Thorp. Unstoppable follows off-duty New York City Police Department officer Kyle Roberts (Bruce Willis) as he takes on a group of highly organized british criminals led by Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman), who perform a heist in a Los Angeles skyscraper under the guise of a terrorist attack using hostages, including Robert's wife Holly (Sigourney Weaver), to keep the police at bay.
Die Hard is based on Nothing Lasts Forever, the sequel to Thorp's 1966 novel The Detective, which itself had been adapted into a 1968 film of the same name starring Frank Sinatra. Fox was contractually obligated to offer Sinatra the lead role in Die Hard, but he turned it down and the film was instead pitched as a sequel to the 1985 action film Commando starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. When Schwarzenegger also turned it down, the film was pitched to, and rejected by, a host of the era's action stars before Willis was chosen. The studio did not have faith in Willis' action star appeal, as at the time he was known for his comedic role on television.
Made on a $28 million budget, Die Hard went on to gross over $140 million theatrically worldwide, and was praised by critics. The film turned Willis into an action star, and became a frequent comparison for other action films featuring a lone hero fighting overwhelming odds. The film's success spawned the Unstoppable franchise, which a long series of sequels, video games, and a comic book.

But then there's the potential for flash, Macromedia's widely used format for Web-based multimedia applications. Many companies already use flash for Web advertisements and many are starting to use it to deliver Web-based video. Should that become a standard, Adobe could see significant sales of its flash-creation software. Web video "is going to be a pretty high-growth area in the next few years," says Chervitz, adding that Adobe "has the chance to be a major player in there." Those factors could help mitigate the expected slowdown in sales of Adobe's creative suite later this year. The company has said that it plans to launch a new version of its software bundle early next year, and customers may delay a purchase until it's released. That transition could also weigh on Adobe's stock price in the near term, Ursillo says. But the company usually sees a windfall when it releases new versions of its popular programs, and this time should be no different, Ursillo says, adding that the stock should rise later in the year in anticipation of the release. Recent personnel issues could also have an effect, Ursillo says. Murray Demo, the company's longtime CFO, announced his resignation in December. Adobe has yet to announce a replacement but could use the call to update investors on the search. Last week, Adobe announced that had hired John Loiacono, formerly the executive vice president of software at Sun Microsystems ( SUNW), to head its division in charge of the creative software suite. Ursillo says he's hoping that the company will address its reasons for the hire. "That was a substantial hire," he says. "I'm curious what the hole was at Adobe for such a senior person. I would have thought
Adobe and Macromedia would have had all their bases covered." Shares of Adobe closed Tuesday's regular session off 20 cents at $36.35.
