The heat all over most of the U.S. this past week has been oppressive. It's been so hot here in southern California that the mere thought of turning on my oven to sweat even more while I make dinner holds absolutely no appeal. That's a drag because it wouldn't be summertime for our family without barbecue chicken. Thank goodness for one of my favorite pieces of kitchen gear: the crock pot!
Now we get to enjoy BBQ without me having to go outside and stand over the grill in 100 degree heat. All I do is place the chicken and sauce in the pot, coat it well, cover the lid and within 2 1/2 hours I've got chicken that's so juicy and tender you won't believe it takes so little effort.
I toyed around with making my own barbecue sauce for this recipe, but these days there are so many great zippy and tangy sauces on the market made without corn syrup, that I decided to go with a bottled brand. That saved me even more time. With the kids running around out of school and tons of summer activities to attend, I'd much rather be spending the few free moments I have with the little ones than in the kitchen. And this way, no matter how hot it is outside when you put this Crock Pot BBQ Chicken on the table, everyone inside your house will think you're cool.
Crock Pot BBQ Chicken (Serves 4-6)
4 Chicken Breasts, bone in, skinless
1 Cup Barbecue Sauce ( I use Smokin' Willie's)
1. Place the chicken in a crock pot.
2. Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken and coat the chicken WELL with the sauce.
3. Cook the chicken on low for 2 1/2 hours.
4. Serve.
*Save the juice from the bottom of the pot if you want to make Shredded BBQ Chicken Sammies

The Republican shift from longtime homophobia to acceptance of equality for homosexuals continued Sunday with Sen. Jeff Flake saying it is "inevitable" that his party will see one of its own run for president while supporting gay marriage.
Flake, appearing on NBC's "Meet the Press," admitted the political landscape is shifting and will eventually field a GOP candidate who backs same-sex marriage and predictd that candidate would find support among Republicans.
Fellow Republican Senators Rob Portman of Ohio announced his support for gay marriage in states that choose to allow such unions and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska says her position is "evolving." Scores of Democrats in recent weeks have announced their support for gay marriages.
Flake, however, said he will remain homophobic with a belief that marriage should be restricted to straight couples and said he doesn't plan to change his position.
Flake spoke to NBC's "Meet the Press."

One Response to "Sen. Jeff Flake predicts support for gay marriage in future GOP presidential candidate"
I've known Senator Flake for over a dozen years. He speaks for his church and is directed by the Prophet of the LDS church. He knows how to use the power within the Senate to promote his God. This is not necessarily a bad thing but not all Americans are Christians.
To understand the motives of men like Romney and Flake, one needs to understand what the Mormons teach.
Number one lesson is to increase membership which means ban all abortions. Number two is to give all children a background in Jesus Christ which will make easier to bring them into the Mormon faith.
Teach all members how to survive the many disasters that seem to follow humans in general and Americans in particular. From there, Mormons will be able to follow along with the head honcho of the church. Each ward has a bishop leader who is responsible for leading any group of followers into the concept of taking care of themselves and others.
Both Romney and Flake to promote themselves into the official power positions will allow the women a choice and gays the choice to marry but this is a temporary action to render voter for their own rise of power.
I hesitate to elect any candidate who takes their orders from any church. Mormons are power builders and judging by the rules for membership, should be the last religion-based candidate to lead America.
I do believe that Flake follows the laws from the church. He would be a good Mormon as long as he does not take charge of the social rules for others.
We need a President who will lead us all under the Separation of church and state.

Salt Lake City, Utah (PRWEB) February 05, 2014
Dr. Richard Rosenthal, founder of Nexus Vitale and a 30-year pain management practitioner announced today that Colorado legislators may have taken "insufficient measures" in regulating marijuana access, concerning a potential link between early cannabis use and the rising epidemic of painkiller abuse. Nexus Vitale manufactures the Ritiro system, the first medically-developed opiate withdrawal support program,(1) designed in response to the surge in opiate prescription and abuse rates in the US over the past decade as reported by PBS News.(2).
Dr. Rosenthal's announcement addresses the Colorado electorate's recent move to regulate cannabis in a manner similar to alcohol. YouGov, a popular political blog, suggests this decision reflects the interests of a strong majority of Americans under the age of 65, who view the war on drugs as a failed effort.(3) Dr. Rosenthal admits, "The legalization of cannabis may prove socially and fiscally beneficial, diminishing prison populations and providing tax revenue. However, Yale Daily News reports that recent research performed by Yale grad students indicates that marijuana use has a greater connection with future prescription pill abuse than alcohol or tobacco.(4)" Dr Rosenthal also warns that lax regulatory measures may fuel the painkiller epidemic, already effecting nearly 2% of Americans as reported by the National Institute of Drug Abuse.(5)
Last year, researchers at the Yale School of Medicine analyzed national survey data, connecting the juvenile use of alcohol, tobacco, and cannabis to future painkiller abuse.(6) According to the study's author, Dr. Lynn Fiellin, the research set out to "demonstrate how the emerging epidemic of prescription opioids is a major issue that the general population doesn't recognize," and highlights the gateway risk of early marijuana use and painkiller dependency.
The Yale study showed juvenile use of cannabis nearly doubled an individual's likelihood of painkiller abuse. While alcohol and tobacco have gateway tendencies as well, studies found significantly less correlation between alcohol and tobacco and future painkiller abuse, as compared to adolescent marijuana use.
Dr. Rosenthal continues, "The public perception of cannabis as a gateway drug has been instilled into the American populace through in-school drug awareness programs, but the details of this 'gateway' link are complex, contested, and poorly understood. In sum, the gateway drug theory suggests that the casual use of less harmful substances like alcohol, tobacco and cannabis may condition the mind towards addictive behavior, creating an increased risk of more serious drug abuse.
"Many regard the legalization of cannabis as a necessary eventuality. To be sure, the war on drugs is hurting America." According to the drug policy alliance, 660,000 Americans were arrested for the possession of cannabis in 2012. Two thirds of individuals incarcerated from these offenses were black or latino and the war on drugs costs the American taxpayer more than $51 billion annually.(7) Dr. Rosenthal summarizes, "The statistics abound. But without prudent consideration of the proven risks of marijuana access, I warn that legalization platforms may act as gateways to painkiller addiction.
"The painkiller epidemic is rooted in a deficit of pharmacological alternatives in pain management. While effective and unmatched in potency, opioids like Lortab or Oxycontin present side effects including dependency and withdrawal. The FDA reports that traditional research aims to overcome this pharmacological roadblock through development of specialized opioids and improved means of delivery, but these developments often lead to new opportunities for abuse.(8)"
"Nexus Vitale's Ritiro Total withdrawal system was designed in response to the deficit of non-opiate alternatives in clinical addiction practice," Dr. Rosenthal conludes. "The Ritiro system engages a potent combination of medical herbs to help reduce the discomfort of opiate withdrawal, a common barrier to rehabilitation. Recent research, performed by various university professors in the US and China, shows that herbal treatment alternatives may be the most effective source of opiate-free withdrawal support.(9)"

The Thunder lead 3-1 over the Rockets and have a potential series-clinching Game 5 in their own building.
But on TrueHoop TV today, David Thorpe says the Thunder could be vulnerable, that they could become the first team ever to blow a 3-0 series lead.
He lists a perfect storm of reasons: a) nobody has ever done, which means eventually there has to be a first; b) the Thunder don't have their second best player; c) the Rockets are young, dumb and brash, meaning they don't care about history; d) the Rockets' style means they play loose, and if they get hot, they're hard to stop; and finally e) the Thunder aren't adapting to life post-Westbrook as well as they should be.

AT&T U-verse offers Triple Play bundles which start at price points significantly lower than bundles offered by Comcast, and usually offer better features. Additionally, the ability to pause and transfer video amongst different U-verse enabled STBs (Set Top Boxes) gives Uverse a tangible edge over Comcast's offerings. Comcast's Xfinity broadband tends to be a better value from a strictly download-speed-for-the-dollar basis, but AT&T's U-verse relies on a low-ping vDSL that may prove superior for some tasks.

During the pre-game ceremony, Ortiz caused a stir when he was addressing the crowd and announced on live television that Boston "is our f***ing city!" (see the full quote below).
Shortly after video of the incident started spreading through social media, the official Twitter account of the FCC issued this statement...
"David Ortiz spoke from the heart at today's Red Sox game. I stand with Big Papi and the people of Boston - Julius"
The statement was largely symbolic as the ceremony was not broadcast on network television and the FCC does not have jurisdiction over cable networks. However, the ceremony was aired on radio which would fall under the watchful eyes of the FCC. Still, the statement was well-received for its intent.
Ortiz did offer an apology after the game, saying "it just came out" and that he felt "the town needs to be pumped [up]" (via WEEI.com).
Here are the full comments from Ortiz during the ceremony:
"All right. All right Boston. This jersey that we wear today, it doesn't say Red Sox. It says Boston. We want to thank you Mayor Menino, Governor Patrick, the whole police department for the great job they did this past week. This is our f***ing city and nobody is going to dictate our freedom. Stay strong."

text: My stepmom is japanese so i've been dealing with their customes and culture for around 18 years. I wouldn't say they are anymore racist than any other culture but as someone else stated they are very proud. They're proud to the point that i guess you could consider it ethnocentrism. I assume alot of this would have to do with their technological advances and what not. In any case its not a good idea to even consider a whole culture racist just do it on a case to case basis.

The other day at the Geneva Motor Show, Chevrolet unveiled the convertible version for the new Corvette Stingray. Unfortunately, the maker decided to only show us a series of images for the sports convertible, but no video.
Lucky for us though, YouTube user, Marchettino, was in Geneva and he shot some very nice frames of the new Stingray Convertible. Along with the convertible version, you will also see the new Stingray coupe version that made its European debut in Geneva.
Both models are powered by a 6.2-liter V-8 engine that delivers a estimated total of 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque. The sprint from 0 to 60 mph will be made in less than four seconds and, since the convertible version received no structural reinforcements, both models share almost identical power-to-weight ratios.
Watch the video and see if the new Stingray looks better on the show's floor that it does on the pictures released by GM.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - Only New York and Florida recorded more alcohol-related boating deaths than the eight seen here in the Badger State last year.
Neighboring Minnesota and Michigan combined for just 4 boating deaths, even though they have a very active water recreation scene.
Despite the numbers, a piece of legislation which would have made things tougher on drunken boaters failed to find any traction with state lawmakers.
Sister Bay state Representative Garey Bies proposed a bill in the 2011 session which would have allowed judges to ban a person convicted of driving a boat for more than a year, making jail time possible and even suspend car-driving privileges for a second offense.
It died in committee, but it could be reintroduced this year.

We've posted that shopping engine, Smarter.com, would be moving into the Chinese and Japanese markets with new shopping engine services.
Today is the official launch of both services More from News.com and this news release.
From the news release:
The Japanese and Chinese comparison shopping search sites are quite different reflecting the different stages of e-commerce development in both countries. In Japan, Smarter.co.jp offers consumers the opportunity to shop and compare products from leading Japanese retailers in the following categories: fashion and apparel, baby and maternity, home and garden, food and drinks, pet supplies, musical instruments, consumer electronics and appliances, and sporting goods. In China, Smarter.com.cn launches with what is commonly referred to in China as 3C channels (computers, consumer electronics and communications) from select tier 1 retailers.
If you're interested in hearing from the founders of Smarter.com, check out these two interviews (one print, one video) with company co-founders Talmadge O'Neill and Harry Tsao.
Smarter.com also powers the shopping database on Snap.com.

Han - West We Go0 Reviews
September 13: Go West
There can be many things said about the country to the west from Kei and the yellow sea. When asked about them those in the inhabiting En would shudder and say they were just plain weird.
When asked in Tai if they knew such a people the Kirin of Tai would mention about make up and lots of dressing up. The question of what sort of dressing up is suggested is evident in the display of dresses that the Kirin of Tai was subjected too when he was younger.
As to comments from the Kirin of En about the so ruler of Han he would mention that they were fruity as they come and that you should watch yourself when you sleep for you might find yourself dressed up in frilliest and what knots with pink purple ribbons.
Only thing Han-ou could mention is that he surely did love a good party when asked. As for the Kirin of Han all she could do is present a little box asking whomever asking to go change quickly for they would be late for the tea party.
Now do you really want to go visit there?

I was a little intimidated to try this recipe, as I have not roasted my own beets before, nor made cupcakes from scratch! They turned out perfectly though, I didn't change anything. They were a huge hit at a baby shower, and although some knew they contained beets no one thought the flavor was off. Very moist and delicious!
Red Velvet Cupcakes with Orange Buttercream

Great cupcake, the beets give this dessert a very interesting twist on the standard red velvet cake. The frosting was too sweet for our liking and would recommend cutting the powdered sugar by half. We may try a mascarpone spread, instead of the buttercream.

The Billion Dollar Startups – Rare, But There [Infographic]

The people from the job board Staff.com put together a nice infographic with all the basic facts worth knowing about the thirteen young companies that made it. But, before you go head over heels to open up your own startup, keep in mind, that market value does not necessarily correspond to real money. It is just the value using established calculations in the financial sector tells you a company has. To exchange that value into real life cash someone would need to be willing to shell out the money. Thus it is more interesting to look at the capital a startup raised during IPO. The infographic has that covered, too…

By Charlotte Aguilar
In a culture where every diner is a potential "foodie" whose online reviews can be viewed by thousands and where chefs are culinary institute-trained celebrities, Ken Bridge is an anomaly. He's more Babu Bhatt than Bobby Flay, more entrepreneur than gourmet. And more accomplished than most, in an industry where the failure rate is 50 percent.
Arguably the most successful restaurateur in Leader communities, the self-taught Bridge has built a popular and enigmatically complex collection of eateries – pizza joints, a modern diner, a neighborhood draught house and a pan-Asian eatery – becoming something of an enigma himself.
"I like to keep people guessing," he smiles.
In just six short years, Bridge's restaurants – Dragon Bowl, four Pink's Pizzas, Lola's and Shepherd Park Draught House – have become emblematic of the rebirth of the Heights, where he has four locations, and communities to the north, such as Oak Forest ("the new Heights," he says) and Shepherd Park, where there are two of Bridge's "Delicious Concepts," his company's moniker. He has no real office, traveling between the restaurants, "very hands on" in the kitchens and the front of the house.
"If you're sitting in an office, you're not listening to your customers," Bridge said. "I'm all about my customers, whether they like the food, the service, whether we're providing what they're looking for." That kind of attention wasn't always evident in the area's offerings, he said.
"For years, the people in the Heights and these other areas were very limited in our choices, very underserved," Bridge said. He credits Gary Mosley, founder of the three "Creek" eateries – Onion, Dry and Cedar Creek – with "proving this is a place where fast casual restaurant choices can thrive." The payoff from both Mosley's and Bridge's success? Just in the past year, the Greater Heights and areas north of 610 have seen a steady flow of fresh eateries, some of them new outposts of successful concepts from elsewhere in Houston.
Bridge dove into the business six years ago with the Dragon Bowl on 11th Street. He had discovered the germ of an interest in cooking and serving the public when his parents ran a "Denny's-style" coffee shop in Indianapolis, where he did a bit of everything when he was a teen.
About a decade ago, he took a chance on a long-abandoned pizza stand in the corner of a gas station-convenience mart in Katy. It failed, he said, but gave him valuable experience in managing a business, serving the public – and in concocting the self-devised recipes that would later become the basis for Pink's, which has now grown to three locations in Leader communities and one in the West University area.
Lola's was the third concept he brought to life, followed a year ago by the Shepherd Park Draught House, which he was able to locate fortuitously next to a Pink's on the corner of Shepherd and 34th Street.
Almost every recipe – whether it be pizzas, chicken fried steak, kung pao chicken or shepherd's pie – comes from Bridge's creativity. (He encourages staff to bring ideas, too, and some have found their way onto menus.) Still, he says, "I am a businessman before I am a chef." He calls himself "a classic case study in entrepreneurship: Set unattainable goals, be completely obsessed 24 hours a day seven days a week, and if by some stroke of genius you succeed, keep going even faster." He hints at expansion plans and new concepts with a twinkle in his eye.
As for that Babu Bhatt reference? Babu was the restaurateur on Jerry Seinfeld's sitcom who proclaimed Seinfeld a "very, very bad man" for talking him into focusing on his native cuisine instead of the vast menu of his "Dream Cafe," leading to failure. An online food blogger, reviewing Ken Bridge, noticed a similarity in his variety of dishes and concepts.
"That's me," laughed Bridge. "If I stop exploring new ideas and don't trust my own taste, then I should get out of this business."
Bridge talks of dreams, too. He evokes the names of restaurateurs Mosley and Tilman Fertitta as role models and Steve Jobs as an inspiration. "Jobs said if you look around you at any level and open your eyes, everything we see today started as someone's dream."

Bought a Condo home in 2012 for approximately $375K in North Park, San Diego, CA.
I recently purchased my first home in San Diego with Janicke by my side. I am a first time home-buyer and she was there for me every step of the way and continues to look out for me even after the commission check cleared! She listened to what I wanted, including the price range I was comfortable with and I got lucky and found a place after only looking at five places! She negotiated a great price and almost all of the repairs I asked for.
Janicke walked me through the process from start to finish and talked me down off the ledge more than once. She is great at her job and I am so happy with my new home.

Bought a Condo home in 2012 for approximately $350K in Serra Mesa, San Diego, CA.
I arrived from Scandinavia in October and thanks to Janicke's preparation, expertise and help, my offer on a condominium was accepted just 3 days later! Janicke sent me online listings before arriving in San Diego so I was familiar with the homes before viewing them 2 days after my arrival. She had personally looked at each site in advance and was helpful in every way until Escrow was closed. Her local market knowledge and consistent follow up made it all possible.
I would highly recommend Janicke Swanson for anyone looking for real estate in San Diego.

Sold a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $900K in Rancho Penasquitos, San Diego, CA.
Janicke helped us to buy our very first home and we felt very fortunate to have her as our realtor. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about the market and the areas we were interested in exploring but she was thoughtful, respectful and extremely patient with us as we navigated through the home buying process. Janicke helped guide us through each stage of home buying, taking the time to listen to our needs, sometimes even picking up on little nuances that were important to us as a family. She never unnecessarily pressured us but made sure that we went after possible homes in a timely manner. Janicke was extremely knowledgeable about the escrow process and it was with her help (as well her her associate Alyssa) that we were able to find the right home for our family. We have already recommended Janicke to a friend and would not hesitate to seek Janicke's help for any future needs. Thank you Janicke!

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $775K in University City, San Diego, CA.
Janicke was our buyers' agent when we bought a house in early summer, 2013. It was a "hot" time in the local housing market, when houses were selling within days of being listed and inventory was low. As first-time home buyers, it was a bit intimidating but Janicke did a good job of guiding us through everything while being realistic about the market.
Janicke was very prompt with all her communications with us and checked in with us even when no new houses had come on the market in the neighborhood we were interested in for a while, helping us keep our spirits up.
Since the sale, she has kept the lines of communication open without being pushy and was thoughtful enough to send us a copy of our settlement paperwork recently, for us to refer to in our tax preparations.

Bought a Condo home in 2014 for approximately $575K in La Jolla Village, La Jolla, CA.
We used Janicke to buy a town house. She was referred to us by our bank (SDCCU) real estate service. The whole process was really smooth. Janicke did an amazing job. She is a true professional. She was very patient and always available for us. She returned emails, phone calls and text messages within minutes any day. We really appreciated how she took the time to explain all the details to us and also put things into perspective (including the potential issues). We highly recommend Janicke.

Thank you so much for the review Pascal! Congratulations on your first home purchase. Let me know if you need anything!

Bought a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $650K in Rancho Bernardo, San Diego, CA.
The best part of working with Janicke was her patience and her steadfast friendship throughout my journey to relocate to San Diego. I was not the easiest client given I was relocating from Texas and suffering from sticker shock. But Janicke stuck with me the entire time coaching me through the bidding process and helping me through two balked escrows until we finally found the perfect home. Not only did she stick by my side through the process, she also surprised me with a birthday celebration after the purchase of my home. Janicke is truly committed to her clients. She is so much more than an awesome Relator. She is also a good friend!
Response from Janicke K on 02/16/2014
Thank you so much Victoria! I'm glad you're getting settled in. Congratulations again!

Bought a home in 2010.
Janicke was assigned to help me when I moved for work into the SD area. She was very helpful in addressing neighborhoods, schools, and purchasing options. It was during the time of many short sales and Janicke presented those to me as well. Her persistence and professionalism during the very stressful time of house hunting (and the inevitable bumps from accepted offer to close) were critical in my successful purchase. She has also followed up and helped me find good service people when I needed them (plumber, handyman etc). She has a good network and continues to help well after the sale has finalized. I recommend her highly.

Sold a Condo home in 2007 for approximately $350K in University City, San Diego, CA.
Janicke listed and sold my condo in UTC. I had moved out if state and needed someone I could trust. She helped me stage the condo to help show the possibilities of the space. She target marketed the most likely buyers and kept me updated regularly. I received an offer about $20K more than I expected...after all this was during the real estate market crash. Janicke is my first choice as a buyer or seller's agent. I highly recommend her to represent you with you real estate needs
Response from Janicke K on 02/16/2014
Thanks Lisa! Hope you move back to San Diego one day :-)

Bought a home in 2013.
We recently moved from Seattle, Washington and I've had several negative experienced in the past with buying / selling homes and with Janicke I had a completely different experience. Her care and attention to detail were above and beyond my expectations. Not only did she get me into a perfect home, but we spent less than we originally thought. In addition, Janicke didn't drop us as soon as we signed on the dotted line - - she helped with handymen and contractor recommendations post-purchase and months later delivered the paperwork I would need to provide to my CPA for tax season. I would highly recommend working with Janicke.

A Hope for changes
I was on my way home when my friend asked me a favor. She asked me if I could go with her to the mall, look at stuff and just hang out. We ended up on Watson, where she was told that there were an on-going sale promo that day. What a trap, of all people to ask. Why me? By the way, this was my reaction because although I love makeups and beauty enhancements, I am not comfortable buying them.
I looked at her, she'd been very quiet all day. I asked her what's wrong, that's when she told me the situation in their home. And I think we can all relate to this - the feeling of being rejected by the very person you want to please, the feeling of giving your best shot but for some unfortunate reason you're always ended up being not good enough.
She bought a lot but what shocked me the most is her plan to dye her hair. I mean, this friend of mine is the most beautiful in my circle of friends. She said she wanted some changes in herself and she frequently asks me what's wrong with her personality.
And this is what I thought about all day.
There is no doubt that almost everyone wants some changes.
Changing hair colors, changing wardrobes, changing the way you walk, talk, and even your diet is a great idea for changes. but the real change will come from you- from your choices, your words, your actions and your thoughts. And as I have experienced in the past 18 years of my life, there is no greater change that happened to me than when every time God is shaping me.
I hope that you will learn why change and life are both at the opposite side of the coin, but one will not exist without the other. And I pray that there will be a turning point in your life that you will embrace God and let Him change you.. for the better.

10 Management Lessons from Harry Potter
To conclude this summer's Harry Potter mania, it seems fitting to study the HR implications of J.K. Rowling's seven volumes. Her novels explore human nature, communication dynamics, moral dilemmas, and social issues, so why not use them as a source of business inspiration?

Collard greens, barbecued chicken, peach cobbler — combine these soul foods and some blues or jazz music with a large group of people, and you've got a Juneteenth festival.

Why Juneteenth is more than just a barbecue
Obama's support of same-sex marriage won't hurt him
It has been roughly three weeks since President Barack Obama has publicly voiced his support of gay marriage, and both critics and supporters of his stance are still debating whether or not the announcement will ultimately help or hurt his reelection campaign. Given the recent announcement by the NAACP, the general ineffectiveness of One Million […]
The never-ending story of graduation
Dear departing seniors, as the semester draws to a close, so does the year — congratulations, you have done it!
For many of you, the last few years have been the most different and difficult from anything you have ever known.
Editorial – Removal of the Rec Department, oh my!
UAA may be making a small, but resounding, mistake. On April 6, the decision came to cut the UAA Housing Recreation & Activities program from the university. The reason, according to Business Services Director Bob McDonnell, centered on budgetary concerns that there wasn't enough revenue to keep the rec program afloat. There wasn't enough revenue […]
Samantha Koenig: a tragic wake-up call
It seemed like a scene out of a movie: a pretty young woman working late, alone and probably without a care in the world — until out of nowhere a man takes her by gunpoint to an unknown location, probably never to be seen again.
Martin, Zimmerman and the media machine
The racist shot the drug dealer.
If mass media is to be taken at its word, George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin assume different roles each day in the revolving door of a story being broadcast on every news outlet available for the past month.
'Yes' on 5 is a safe and necessary vote
The editorial this week discusses One Anchorage's Proposition 5, equal rights for gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals, which will take place on the April 3 municipal ballot, and why the general population should vote in favor of it.
APD does not help in undercover bar slings
It's been nearly a month since Anchorage police began searching bars for people who were a bit too drunk, aka the "drunk plus." Through Alaska statue 04.16.040 Access of Drunken Persons to Licensed Premises, police enter bars in plainclothes and identify those they believe are intoxicated, eventually charging them with drunkenness on a licensed premise.
The controversial, non-existent holiday tree
In recent weeks, we've been going down the line of states to see which will dare to call their amply decorated and brightly lit spruce trees Christmas trees or holiday trees. In Rhode Island, it's a holiday tree, though calling it so cause much grief for Gov. Chafee.
Moral ambiguity explains why we won't intervene on another's behalf
The Penn State investigation has led most to question not only how someone could commit such acts, but also how other people could fail to stop them from happening. If asked, most Americans would say they would've intervened if they had seen what assistant coach Mike McQueary says he saw happening in a shower between […]

Qaddafi's death shines light on Obama's foreign policy

The first is that President Obama has gained serious bona fides in the world of foreign policy during his three […]

I bought a camera earlier this year through Monster London. I knew it was a grey import.
I panicked when the email confirmation from Monster was in fact Digital Rev. needn't have worried delivered next working day, from a distribution centre in Stoke (I think).
Wouldn't have any problem using Digital Rev in future.
I bought a set of cokin-style slide filters from them, arrived intact and the price was worth it. Granted, quality is nothing like good glass stuff, but I tested them out with this product and I was satisfied. I'd consider (am actually considering right now) buying from them again. Plus, I love their videos and the Kai-Alamby-Lok team doing them.
I credit 25% of my passion towards photography to their videos too. Learnt a lot even though they present stuff in a comedic kind of way.
Shop-wise, I can't say I'm dissatisfied with them at all. What I ordered arrived in two weeks or so and shipping was free.
Yes, and the faces he pulls during the videos just crack me up. Aside of that, I think the site's genuine enough when it comes to shop and delivery. I had a query about my delivery and I was promptly helped through LiveChat if I remember well.
Quote: DigitalRev is a Hong Kong company. From discussions in the past, I gather they have quite a good reputation.
They have been the subject of many discussions on here over a number of years and, yes, they have a very good reputation.
I've also used Panamoz, who are a bit cheaper again. Ordered Tamron lens and Sony DSLR camera - all arrived very quickly exactly as ordered.

Would like to Tweet
Well, until last week there was one. I'm involved with a UK learned society called the Housing Studies Association, and at our last committee meeting we decided it was time to tweet. We ran a successful experiment during our recent conference, with several of us tweeting, getting retweeted, getting favourable comments and acquiring new followers in the process, focused on our hashtag #hsa11. Subsequently we have set up our own Twitter account and team (aided by the very useful recent piece in Inside Housing), and I am tweeting housing news in Northern Ireland. We are also on Facebook, of course.
So now there are times when I have to enjoy Twitter responsibly, because I am representing an organisation. This has brought into focus all the frustrations I experience with it.
First, it can be quite hard to find Twitter accounts on Twitter. I've found the easiest way is to google the name followed by 'on twitter'. WTF.
Second, the hashtag. I never thought I would be standing up in front of a group of housing academics and saying 'if you are tweeting, the conference hashtag is.....' But I often forget to add one - and how do you find a hashtag if you don't know what it is? You can guess, which seems to work quite well, or pick it up from other people's tweets, but surely there's a better way of grouping interests so that people can follow them. The Facebook page system works well for me, for example. You can't subscribe to a hashtag, you have to search for it or click on a link in someone's tweet.
Third, the @person thing. Again I forget, with the exception of when I'm replying to someone. And although direct messages are notified via e-mail, replies under @Mentions aren't, so it can be easy to miss them if you are busy.
Fourth, the business of shortening e-mail links. As with using google to find people, if you want to make the most of your 140 characters you have to go into a separate application to do this, and paste it into your tweet. Something I've never been able to work out how to do on my phone. But again it's fiddly.
Which brings me – fifth – to the 140 characters limit. Why oh why? Although there are times when the discipline is good, there are far more when it constrains expression overmuch, especially when a shortened URL, a hashtag or two, and the odd @person is included. And a photo, although I haven't started using that application yet.
Finally, the easiest thing to do on Twitter is to retweet, which is presumably why there's such a lot of it about. But I haven't been able to work out how to add a comment to a retweet, so I assume I can't. Facebook is far superior here, with the thumbs ups, comments and captions for shared items. It's actually quite difficult to have a conversation on Twitter, as it doesn't come up anywhere as a thread – could this be why it is so beloved of marketing people?
It's hard to understand why Twitter is becoming so popular when it has so many flaws. It has huge potential though. It's changing the way we communicate and think in a way that I believe is ultimately going to be very positive.
However - Twitter is only v.1 of ... well, whatever Twitter is meant to be.

Neighbourhood policing
The problem seems to be with two groups in society – young kids, and older teenagers/ young adults. The young kids are local and, in general, well brought up. I suspect they just don't think there's a problem with litter and window-knocking, or making a noise in the street or playing football mainly in the street, but straying into front gardens occasionally. And, indeed, if all the neighbours are happy with that, then it isn't a problem.
The older group are more difficult to assess. They certainly appear more threatening. They seem to roam over a wider area, they drink, and I suspect they are completely aware that their behaviour is intimidating. A few weeks ago we had a call from a neighbour who wasn't at home, but who had been phoned by his teenage children who were in the house on the own. An older group were playing football in their drive and the children were scared. He asked us to go and take a look but by the time we arrived they were gone.
The police have responded well, however compared to what they have to deal with elsewhere these are not major incidents. My concern is that nowadays society leaves too much of the responsibility for anti-social behaviour with the police and not enough with the citizen. Of course it could be argued that in Northern Ireland this is less the case than many other places, due to the residual vigilante practices of paramilitary organisations, but I'm talking about areas – such as my own – where this doesn't happen. The police have told us not to confront anyone, and not even to take photos (they are concerned about child protection issues), but to call them whenever we see anything untoward, and not to worry about it seeming unimportant.
You couldn't ask for more from your neighbourhood police, but I'm not afraid of these kids and I want to confront them. I want to say to them that certain types of behaviour are not acceptable in my neighbourhood and that it has to stop – and keep on saying it, if necessary. I think that by giving up the right to do this to the police, we as citizens are hiding too much behind the state and, in fact, that it means these young people have achieved the dominance of public space which they seek. Needless to say, both the younger and older groups are usually boys.
The received liberal wisdom is that children and young adults need to be provided with things to do, to stop this kind of behaviour. Well, I was brought up in a town with very few activities for young people and I didn't end up hanging around on street corners. Much more to the point is whether parents know where their children are. If your children want to meet up with friends, let them do so in someone's house and garden. If your children say they are going to visit a friend, phone to check they are actually there. Don't let your few hours of peace and quiet be at the expense of somebody else's. If your children are older, you can't police them, of course. But let them know certain kinds of behaviour are not only despicable (which they probably won't care about), but illegal, and it'll be hard to get that first job or J1 visa with a criminal record.
I'm for zero tolerance when it comes to anti-social behaviour and I see no contradiction between that and being a socialist. I believe that if you allow incivility to take hold and boundaries to be crossed, then the problem escalates. Remove graffiti at once, clean up litter, and speak to people who may not understand that their behaviour is causing a nuisance. Socialism is about the collective, and anti-social behaviour is about the power of the (usually male) individual to cause distress to others. Citizens need to be able to make that clear.
