If Republicans had any brains, this election would have one simple theme. Are you better off now than you were six years ago, when Republicans last controlled the government?
For many Americans, there is a much more compelling question to ask that could sweep Republicans not only into control of the government but with a supermajority.
What is the question?
The question is, are your children better off now than they were six years ago?
The question is not a hypothetical question.
The American dream is to work hard and send your kids to college, where they will live the American dream. Thanks to the Great Obama Depression, one out of every two college graduates this year will not have a job when they graduate in May.
If the fifty percent have a job, they are not employed in a job that requires a college degree. Even those with jobs are seeing a slide in their salaries.
Compare this to where we were six years ago.
For the classes of 2006 and 2007, the employment rate following graduation was 90%!
What is the difference?
It is the Great Obama Depression.
Thanks to the Obama, Pelosi, Reid axis of fiscal evil, in other words, thanks to the Democrats running the government since 2007, we have seen our economy crash.
Perhaps the more important question to ask is do the Republicans really want win this election?
Back in 1980, the moment that really turned that election was when Ronald Reagan asked Americans if they were better off now than they were four years earlier.
The economy is the most crucial issue of this election. The numbers are staggering. Few, other than hard-core liberals, believe the unemployment rate is really 8.2 percent. If the unemployment statistics were calculated the way they were during the great depression, the unemployment rate would be over 16 percent!
Every American, whether you are the richest or the poorest has a common dream. We want our children to do better than we did. We want our children to have a better life than we have had.
What we do not want is to have our children living with us when they are 25 or 30 because they cannot find a job and make their way in the world. There is a reason why Obama wants to keep children on their parents insurance until they are 26. He wants to destroy the economy and make this generation the lost generation of American wealth.
He wants to make this upcoming generation unemployed and unemployable.
If he can create a generation totally dependent on the government, liberty dies. We have seen this in Europe. There are so many groups that are totally dependent on government handouts; it is impossible to do anything. Greece circles to the giant toilet bowl of economic anarchy because they have so many people dependent on the government, from civil servants to pensioners, that they cannot cut.
This is the Obama dream for America.
The Republicans are totally clueless about messaging. This is the message that crushes the Democrats. With one out of every two college graduates this year either unemployed or underemployed and with a majority of Americans with children or grandchildren either in college or looking at college in the next few years, we want a future.
We want our children to have a future.
The Obama future is poverty. The Republicans, if they would message it right, can offer a future of real hope and prosperity.
So are your kids better off now than they were six years ago?

I guess my $25K was way too high. Even at $17.8K, a "BA in Hispanic Transgender Gay & Lesbian Studies.." is a negative, IMHO.
Burger flipping is not my field, nor hers. But if she wants to hold out for $96,000.00, no problem from me!
Not in mine either, but I seen an add a while back and was surprised they paid that much. As for the woman, I wouldn't pay her a dollar for that stupid degree.
Bwahahahahaha!! If you think American public schools are "preparing" kids for college, think again!!
About all they prepare them to be is Leftie-brainwashed, lazy, do-nothing, Obama voters, slacking in their mama's basement.
Dang strait on that.
The UN can go to Hell and if they need help. I am willing to help them.
Remember our Tea Party Freshmen that were elected to the House? They don't get the credit they deserve. This is what they're doing now and its being led by my Rep. Raul Labrador.
Maybe they'll get some attention and start getting somewhere. Like maybe we can talk to them!
my children and my husband and I are worse off then 6 years ago. i know who i'm not voting for - its a no brainer
The working world has long preferred degreed candidates. A college diploma was the gold ring. Experience, talent and expertise were no longer enough to compete successfully in the job market. Even as it became more and more apparent that our education system was a joke, that the gold ring was tarnished and that too many degreed candidates were woefully unprepared to do the job, the fact remained that having a degree is what gave you a foot in the door.
Young people have been accessing higher education by the droves because employers have demanded it even when there was no justification for it. Like anything else the more prevelant something becomes the less value it has. These days, the college grad has a 50/50 chance that the only thing their degree is apt to get them is a foot in the unemployment line. Very sad.

The Allure of Paradise
You are here : Discover Paradise > The Allure
Maeva! Welcome! Tahiti - Moorea - Bora Bora - Island name that evoke wonderful states of mind: seduction, honeymoons, romance, adventure and escape...You have probably dreamt about these marvellous, imaginary, fertile world of sun-drenched landscapes that suddenly apppear right before your eyes upon exiting your airplane?
Here, around these South Sea isles, a romantic sunset sea sends giant curls of turquoise waves breaking onto the colourful reefs that protect the tranquil lagoon of warm, bright-emerald waters and white coral-sand beaches.
Tahiti, Moorea, Bora Bora - high and mythical islands with deep valleys exhaling the intoxicating perfume of the Tiare (Tahitian flower), short lived jewel that one wears over the ear on verdant pathways.
Rangiroa, Manihi, Fakarava, Tikehau - atolls at the end of the world, these "pearl islands" enclose in their jewellery box lagoons undreamt of universes: magic illuminates the blue depths where time deposits the pearls of Tahiti .
From the north to the south from the fertile plains of the Australes to the sharp cliffs of the Marquesas, these fragrant paradises combine all the different images lavished by generous Mother Nature. Secret or rebellious, savage but never hostile, their beaches, shaded by coconut trees, tell of the centuries of erosion which made them gold or basalt, atoll or mountain.

Last -- we told you about a prominent member of the news media giving President Obama advice and well -- was no ordinary advice.
CBS news political director John Dickerson calling for President Obama to pulverized or just try and go for the throat of the GOP.
But tonight Dickerson is trying to defend his final words washing is our chief political correspondent Byron York joins us.
Aren't busy trying to defend this kind of -- -- is -- trying to dig his heels in deeper fidelity being flip or resist what he thought.
Well he's trying to say that these were not his personal thoughts he said people whose -- the -- -- she said people misunderstood the article they thought that.
That he was trying to give the president some sort of personal advice.
When in fact he was just analyzing the situation of what President Obama should have to do.
I think the problem is is that it if anyone makes a just in good faith to -- of the articles.
In which he says we you know if President Obama wants to be consequential if he wants to be a transformative president.
Then he should destroy the GOP we'll of course President Obama wants to be an important consequential transformative president.
And so the advice this destroy the GOP and and it and it's there on a couple occasions he said his goal should be.
To delegitimize.
His opponents.
I sometimes use -- sharp caustic terms and then on the fiancee not shoot the messenger early assists on say something I really don't truly mean.
Do you get the sense that he is sort of -- flamboyant in his speech.
According get the sense that this is this is exactly what his mission was this article what he intent -- did he was giving advice to present to do.
I mean I've I know John and I've known for quite awhile and and he's he's not given -- crazy statements and in the end in provocative statements like this a matter of fact.
He's asked some really pointed questions and got.
Enormously interesting.
Answers out of politicians I think he was -- -- -- -- -- of the bush at a press conference whether.
He had there -- any mistakes that he wanted to do.
Do over in his presidency and bush couldn't think of one it was a it was a real interesting moment.
He -- because -- that question he -- -- don't think he's given to -- making no wild statements and I was it was it wasn't selling gas the -- on the -- it was in the 2000 word -- well I will say that there is a -- schools are right now among Democrats that the way to for President Obama to win now is essentially -- to put his boot on the on the net.
Republicans and tried to just didn't you know -- That but yeah it's certainly US not to me but certainly there -- number of opinion journalist to agree with this -- -- -- because this is.
No he's not he's a political director of CBS -- also by the way writes for slate.
In this article was actually end -- which kind of prides itself in being edgy and interest thing -- And saying.
-- little bit provocative kind of stuff so I think there's a little bit of conflict between those two roles.
One writing for.
Pretty opinionated publications late into being the political director for CBS.
Which is supposed to be straight down the middle ten and tonight yet he's CBS hasn't made a statement he has a quote explain it based on his heels a little bit more -- he -- he said that he was not offering advice people have if you thought he was offering advice -- -- -- president should do this.
You were wrong I'm well aware sustain themselves over people read and interpret -- thank you thank you.

Government has announced that copyright in designs which qualify for copyright protection is to be enforceable beyond the current 25 years to a term of 'life of the creator plus 70 years'. Under the new measures, certain 'artistic' designs of manufactured goods (for example certain furniture, lamps and jewellery) created before 1987 may now be protected from unauthorised copying under copyright law.
The changes are part of the Enterprise and Regulatory Bill, recently announced by the Government. The Bill will repeal section 52 of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988, which currently restricts copyright to 25 years (calculated from the date on which the work is first placed on the market) on artistic works which are exploited through an industrial process. In practice, this means that owners of any copyrights in classic designs will be able to use copyright law to prevent the sale of unauthorised copies of such designs. Not all works will necessarily be artistic works (and therefore able to be covered by copyright) and the repeal will not apply retrospectively, so retailers will be able to clear any unauthorised existing stock.
The UK had been one of only three Member States (Estonia and Romania) to place a limit on the term of protection for copyright works which are produced through an industrial process, and today's move will clarify and update the law in line with the rest of the EU.
By protecting new designs more generously, we are encouraging more investment of time and talent in British design. That will lead to more manufacturing in Britain, and that in turn will lead to more jobs – which we desperately need right now. Properly protected design can help make the UK a profitable workshop again. We have the creative talent – lets use it. Sir Terence Conran
Current copyright laws leave designers woefully under protected compared to similar creative professions. This initiative is a small step toward establishing much needed protection of valuable intellectual property.Tom Dixon
As a designer actively pushing boundaries technologically and aesthetically and whose entire life is devoted to enriching industrial design with uniqueness and creative insight, one requires the full support of all authorities, fellow designers, clients, institutions and governments in order to secure copyright and retain the absolute soul of why we design, retaining at all costs our cultural and commercial integrity.Ross Lovegrove
After months of Equal Rights for Design campaigning, we at ELLE Decoration are absolutely thrilled to see our efforts rewarded by this change in government policy. This is timely, correct and smart future-thinking for Brand UK. There are many more steps, not least of which will be changes in enforcement policy to back it up, but this was the big hurdle. Absolutely over-joyed that ELLE Decoration was a part of making this happen.Michelle Ogundehin
I am very happy to hear of these changes that help to recognise the true value of design, which is very encouraging for the design community as a whole. A big thank you to those who championed the cause. Bethan Gray
This is great news for the design industry and will bring the UK in line with the rest of the EU. As retailers of genuine modern classic furniture as well as the worldwide licence holders for Eileen Gray designs, we are more aware than most that the market is swamped with a multitude of cheap copies. My hope is that this change will encourage design creativity to flourish once more as UK designers will feel more confident that their intellectual property is protected and that pursuing a career in design is worthwhile.Ruth Aram, Aram Store
Take the 620 Chair Programme - it took five years to fight a plagiarism case in Germany; it cost a huge sum for a small company; and only then does the producer stand a chance of achieving copyright protection. So, the 620 Chair Programme is protected but Rams's 606 Universal Shelving System is not protected. Of course, 606 is one of the more copied products on the market (I even saw a 505 shelving system recently). The 620 Chair Programme is already protected for 70 years after Rams's death because it is protected under German law - fortunately he has just celebrated his 80th birthday, so there is no sign of the 70 years starting yet. However, furniture producers still need much more help with the process of achieving copyright protection in the first place. It is here that I would like to see more time and effort taken by the legislators. The copying of furniture is out of hand and, ultimately, it is the customer who loses out. Vitsoe would be able to support and service its long-term customers much better if its market position was not constantly being eroded by products that copy the look (of its shelving system) but fail to give the high product quality and careful service which genuinely allow customers to live better, with less, that lasts longer.Mark Adams, Vitsoe

Comments about MISCELLANEOUS GENr8™ Vitargo® S2 - Unflavored:
This product is great. I primarily use it after workouts and can see myself getting bigger. I am thinking about taking it pre workout as well. Ine recomendation i have is to get the unflavored version. I mix it with my chocolate protein shake. I have tried the tropical flavor by itself but its pretty bad.

Comments about MISCELLANEOUS GENr8™ Vitargo® S2 - Unflavored:
I'm a 19 year old D1 lacrosse player and I've been taking this for 2 years. Dont drink this product alone it is disgusting. I mix one scoop of this with one scoop of VPX SyntheSize a half hour before lifting. Make sure you get something healthy in your stomach and drink water! If you have a high intensity workout with this in an empty stomach you will most likely get sick (its happened to me). This mixed with the creatine gives you great energy for a workout and you'll be feeling good to go even after your done your workout.

Comments about MISCELLANEOUS GENr8™ Vitargo® S2 - Unflavored:
I really wanted to utilize this product, however if you like tasting powdered PVC that turns into a goo like slime then this is the product for you. I could not get past the taste as it literally made me vomit. It is the worst taste that you could ever imagine and i've tried many different products that were labeled as horrible tasting. This one takes the cake! I had to return the product. If you must have it, i'd spend my money on a flavored version. At this point, i'm keeping my distance. Hope this helps.

Comments about MISCELLANEOUS GENr8™ Vitargo® S2 - Unflavored:
Vitargo is the best endurance fuel I've tested and we liked it so much we got our whole cycling team hooked on it. We have 20 elite athletes who are using it on a regular basis for training and racing with very noticeable results.
It can be mixed in very high concentrations so you can take a bottle of fuel and another of water. Biggest effect is that your legs don't get that tired feeling as easily so we've been using it for stage races, before, during and after and we feel way better than when we used similar products. No electrolyes is good -- it allows you to mix whatever calorie strength you want and do your electrolytes separately. Unflavored is the favorite, followed by Fruit Punch.Pros

DOES NOT MIX WELL IN A SHAKER CUP. MIXES GREAT IN A BLENDER. I SUGGEST YOU PUT 8 TO 12 OUNCES OF WATER IN FIRST AND GET THE BLENDER GOING AND THEN ADD 1 TO 2 SCOOPS OF THIS STUFF. I USE ONLY ONE SCOOP AT THE MOMENT WITH PURE GERMAN CREATINE THAT I ADD TO THE MIX AND I'VE SEEN GOOD RECOVERY TIME AND LEAN MUSCLE MASS GAIN.

Personal booklists, from print to virtual
To track or not to track, that is the question! How we keep track of the books we've read and the reasons behind each method could be a topic of study for an anthropologist, which I'm not. But I am an inquisitive librarian, so I recently decided to ask friends and colleagues about their book tracking methods.
Responses from 19 adults revealed 8 different methods for keeping track (or not keeping track) of books. Some of those polled use multiple tools, one for the books they want to read and another for the books they have already completed. Here are the results:
- 6 have profiles on Goodreads
- 5 don't keep track at all
- 5 use PPL's social catalog, BiblioCommons
- 4 have compiled spreadsheets in Google Docs or MS Excel
- 4 use printed notebooks or index cards
- 1 creates a list in MS Word
- 1 is a member of Shelfari
- 1 keeps track using LibraryThing
Goodreads is an online catalog where you can maintain book lists with customized virtual shelves, as well as, get ideas from others, read reviews, see what your friends are reading and find read alikes. Some of us use Goodreads as a reader's advisory tool to help library customers determine their next reads. One colleague has found the "to read" shelf to be one of the best features of Goodreads. Another appreciates having a customized shelf for titles she didn't finish. She's named this shelf "unfinished meh meh books". On Goodreads, it's easy to rate books and sort them. Some of us use Goodreads as a social tool, getting updates on what others are reading through Twitter or Facebook. Some keep their info completely private.
Surprisingly, there are almost as many readers who do not keep track of their books, other than memory, which admittedly, is not always a perfect system for recalling titles or authors. Five people in my informal survey are unencumbered by the physical or virtual list. One respondent clarified her reasoning with, "Every so often I decide that I will keep a list and then life happens." I get it. It's sometimes hard to keep the lists up-to-date. In the past when my lists were kept in a pocket-sized notebook, I'd find that I was way behind in listing the books I've read. Now when I log into Goodreads, I sometimes find that my "currently reading" list is still two or three books behind what I've read. But since the books still remain in my "to read" list, with a click, they are easily moved onto my "completed" shelf.
As my poll revealed, paper lists are still popular, mostly in notebook form. One person responded that he maintains index cards, cataloged by author. Each book read by a particular author is then listed with the year read and a star if the book was particularly good. He has maintained this method for over a decade. A colleague also maintains a paper list in notebooks that go back to 1985 with about 100 books cataloged per year. Books are added as they are finished, in chronological order. The back of the notebooks are used to keep track of unfinished books. Initially, though, as books are in the "to read" category, they may be on scraps of paper, grocery store receipts, napkins or even her hand!
Like the websites dedicated to cataloging books, Google Docs offers accessibility from virtually anywhere. Three people indicated they use this method with one in particular taking his cataloging seriously. He maintains separate lists by year and includes movies (great idea!) in a separate section. The lists are shared with a small number of friends. Occasionally annotations are added but books are not given a ranking such as a star or letter grade because to this reader, it seems to be "arbitrarily quantitative" with the belief that "responses to books should be at least in whole words, if not whole sentences, not mere letters". Another reader uses Excel to track her books with keywords so she can search easier.
BiblioCommons is used by several people to track their recently returned books and to get ideas for their "to read" lists. Shelves to organize "for later", "in progress" and "completed" are convenient, especially when you are a frequent library customer. Some use BiblioCommons in conjunction with another method. Two people indicated they use BiblioCommons for their "to read" lists and then easily transfer them to be put on hold at the library.
Four people indicated they are part of a book discussion group. Interestingly, each book club maintains book lists uniquely. One keeps a list on Goodreads, one prints a list with the current year's selections, one has a secretary who maintains the list, and one group has created a private group on Facebook where books are chosen, dates for meetings are selected and tidbits about the books are shared. The meetings are face-to-face but all other communication is conveniently done through the Facebook group.
A colleague has her father's handwritten booklists which have become a treasure to her since his passing. The history of his years of reading lists created by hand, are priceless. As we move away from pen and paper to virtual, we gain organization and convenience but lose something too.
How do you keep track of your reading lists? Join the conversation!
I have just recently begun using Goodreads and am simply trying to record some books I know I read in the past. I wish I had kept lists all along!
Because of your article I checked out Bibliocommons and was delighted to see the books listed that have been reviewed at The Buzz! Hooray!
It helped to read that you interviewed someone who didn't keep lists! I never considered doing so until recently. When I discovered Library Thing, I thought it would be good to catalogue the books I owned, but postponed doing so. Now I can see that it would be good to record them as I go along.
Nice article! It's got me thinking!
Thanks for commenting! I'm glad you found the list of "The Buzz" titles on BiblioCommons. Handy, isn't it! I add past reads, as I go, onto Goodreads. I've got a lot of them on there now but ocassionally remember another one.
I now use Goodreads to track books I've read. It is a much lazier method than I used when I was younger. I used to keep a spiral notebook by my side, when I read, and when I encountered a new word or allusion, I would write it in the notebook under the name and author of the book. I would then require myself to research the meaning of the word before I next started reading on in the book. It was wonderful for expanding my vocabulary. I have not discarded those old reading journals, and I keep on telling myself I should add to them. The Goodreads method is useful in finding other books that I may not have heard of. I have a few friends whose reading habits I admire and I do like to see what they are reading. In both formats, I require myself to say something about the book, even if I really disliked it.

I know how to program it but what part of the microcontroller holds the program. There is no memory on it, atleast I don't think there is.
So if I buy everything for the $50 robot I will be covered and wont need to buy any memory things?

The idea behind this group is to offer a place for people interested in wine to experience wine together.

Here we can have a small group, take our time, and get to know more about wines and each other. Whether you know nothing about wine or you're an expert, all that matters is that you're interested. My hope is to do small group tastings that I know I always want to d …

Northside Wine Collection Club is an established form of alternative investment that can offer impressive returns. The wine market is based upon simple supply and demand economics. Bordeaux has the most stable financial market of all wine producing regions, while in each decade only 3-4 vintages out of every 10 have wines of a high enough quality for investment purposes. A chateau can only produce a unique and finite amount of wine each year. As this is happening the wine is maturing and becomin …

MUSIC A MUSIC therapy group aiming to help Islanders with dementia to improve memory, have fun and boost confidence celebrated its first birthday. SingAbout followed from a project on therapy for the brain.It was developed for people with Alzheimer's and other dementia and people whose brain functions are affected by a stroke or injury. The therapy, recognised by the NHS as the most effective form of complementary therapy for this group, gained recognition through studies with patients. Trial sessions were funded by Age Concern and provided by Independent Arts, which led to a pilot group at The Gouldings, a facility for the elderly, in Freshwater. Following its success, the first SingAbout group was formed in Freshwater and another group in Newport followed. The Ryde group started in September and a South Wight group will be launched soon.SingAbout is free and encourages social interaction in groups. Many of the songs require gentle hand actions or chair-based movements, while some are chosen to invoke memories.Independent Arts manager, Kate Ball, said: "We are thrilled to be celebrating its first anniversary. We hope to keep it thriving for many years to come through ongoing fundraising."Reporter: firstname.lastname@example.com

I'm curious why is the F88 Austeyr so damn inaccurate, has too much recoil and the sight is so much bigger than it is in real life?
If I lie down in game and shoot a wall that at a guess would be 10 - 20 meters away, its not possible to shoot the same hole without moving your weapon. The real thing, at that distance can hit the same spot with rarely having to adjust it.
The inner circle you aim through is a lot smaller than that of what is in the game, I would say it needs to be at LEAST half that size.
Just my 2c for making the weapon more realistic.

Labour markets
Labour mobility in Europe and the US
Labour mobility is one of the keys to a successful currency union – be it within or across nations. This column discusses new evidence showing that the shock-absorbing role of migration has increased in Europe and declined in the US. During the Great Recession, European migration remained high – although not high enough given the vast differences across the Eurozone. Overall, Europe has strengthened this essential adjustment mechanism.
Temporary work support and long-term joblessness
Individuals moving from long-term unemployment into work face a number of challenges. This column discusses the use of temporary in-work support during this transition. Recent experimental evidence has shown the potential for such support to have a positive long-term effect. It can increase not only employment entry but also employment retention, and so may provide a means of addressing the low pay, no pay cycle.
Trade unions in Europe
Though trade union density and its trends vary considerably across Western European countries, in most of them the current density has fallen down in comparison to 30 years ago. This column reviews some explanations for the decline of unionisation and discusses some of the challenges unions need to face. Union membership could still be stabilised because it is embedded in social, economic, and political structures of the western European countries.
Gender stereotypes and childcare
The gender gap in labour-force participation rates is still not closing up. Among other factors, cultural aspects may play a role. This column describes an experimental study, conducted with women from Italy, on the benefits of formal childcare on outcomes of children. Highly educated women are positively affected by the information about formal childcare. Low-educated mothers, however, do not increase their use of childcare facilities, or their labour supply.
How much unemployment insurance do we need?
In response to the Great Recession, unemployment insurance has been extended in many countries, but there is controversy over whether such extensions are optimal. Unemployment insurance entails direct fiscal costs, and encourages job seekers to prolong their search. The familiar benefit of unemployment insurance is that it allows the jobless to maintain their consumption. However, by reducing the search effort of other workers, it also improves a given worker's chance of finding a job. Unemployment insurance extensions appear less costly when these search externalities are considered.

Sing the praises of this SteelSeries board in the key of mechanical
Subject: General Tech | June 13, 2011 - 01:52 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: mechanical keyboard, input, steelseries
Mechanical keyboards seem to be a hot topic, with round ups appearing to deal with all of the new boards coming out. Hardware Heaven chose to focus on one particular product, the SteelSeries 6Gv2 Mechanical gaming keyboard, which thankfully didn't take 'gaming' to mean sticking extra buttons all along the side. The Cherry Black MX designed keys are very common amongst these new mechanical keyboards though the n-key rollover, being able to hit an unlimited number of keys and have them properly register, is not something you find on all USB keyboards. The 6Gv2 can handle multiple keys for you circle strafers and replacing the Windows key on the left hand side with a 'media key' that is disabled in games is a very nice touch. Check out the full review at Hardware Heaven since there are some negative aspects to the design of this board.
"For quite some time the gaming keyboard market has concentrated on products which add macro buttons, re-assignments, profiles, USB and audio pass-through and weighted key actions to enhance the gaming experience. In addition to this we see branded products such as the Razer StarCraft 2 gear and SteelSeries Medal of Honor products however few manufacturers have looked to release high quality mechanical keyboards for the gaming masses.
There have been a few though and these have clearly made an impact with gamers as we are regularly seeing manufacturers launch their own mechanical gaming models. One manufacturer which has historically offered mechanical keyboards for gamers is SteelSeries and they are now back with a new model, the 6Gv2 which we have connected to our system today."

Posted: Feb 10, 2013 8:36 PM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) - A funeral is scheduled this week for the Riverside Police Department officer who was allegedly shot and killed by fugitive ex-cop Christopher Dorner.
Riverside authorities announced on the department's website that 34-year-old Michael Crain's funeral is set for 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Grove Community Church. The ceremony will include an Honor Guard procession followed by interment at Riverside National Cemetery.
Crain, a resident of Anaheim and a father of two, was an 11-year veteran of the force.
Authorities say Dorner ambushed Crain and his 27-year-old partner while they were stopped at a red light in Riverside Thursday.
The 27-year-old officer, who was also struck by gunfire, is expected to survive.
SWAT teams continue to search for Dorner, who has vowed revenge against several former LAPD colleagues whom he blames for ending his career.

Order Standard by 2 p.m. ET 12/19 for 12/24 delivery. Standard $25+ orders ship free
Really soft leather, and a handsome gift. It isn't one of those "carry-all" passport holders, but a good one for your pocket if you're in a place where you need to carry your passport around at all times.
This is a great little passport holder, soft great smelling leather and it fit my passport like a glove. Nothing too flashy or fancy, just does exactly what you need it to. Would highly recommend this product
I'm not much of a world traveler, but I found it useful for holding my car registration, insurance, AAA card, etc. It's a sleek way to keep everything from getting lost in the glovebox.
Great accessory for my pass port. I would of never bought this for myself, really glad i got it in my box.
This passport case is very nice. I like the little globe engraved in it. Do I really need a passport case? Probably not, but I am using it. My only complaint is that I think this is overpriced. The picture makes it look like much better quality than it actually is in person.
This passport case is awesome. I was looking for a nice simple passport cover that wasn't too expensive and was absolutely thrilled to receive this. It has a great pocket for cash or other travel documents. It's just simple and stylish. Really great product.
A classy way to protect your passport. Comes in handy when traveling and looks cool, too. Happy to have gotten this in my box.
This Men in Cities passport case is pretty cool. I think its great to have protection for the passport. The leather is nice but I am not a huge fan of the logo.
I got my passport in 2009 and this is too small. Too bad, I was excited to use it, looks pretty sharp, but even with all the stretching and nudging I could tolerate, I can't make it work.
This passport case is a great gift for the person you don't know what to buy for...and then take a trip!

FutureGen Industrial Alliance Announces Site Selection Process for World's First "Zero Emissions" Coal Plant
WASHINGTON, DC — The FutureGen Industrial Alliance today announced a site selection process to determine the host site for the world's first coal-fueled "zero emissions" power plant. A draft Request for Proposals (RFP) for public review will be issued in the latter part of February 2006, with a final RFP targeted for release in March 2006. Proposals for the host site will be due by May 2006. Based on an evaluation of the proposals received, the Alliance will develop a list of candidate sites by summer of 2006. Information about the process is provided on the FutureGen Alliance website.
The host site will be selected through an open, competitive process. Candidate sites will be identified by applying a set of technical, environmental, regulatory and financial criteria developed by the Alliance, with input from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), independent technical experts and stakeholders. The criteria will include those typically considered when siting power plants, such as access to water, fuel delivery systems, and transmission lines, as well as requirements that are unique to the FutureGen project, such as the suitability of the site geology for permanent carbon dioxide storage. These criteria will be explained in detail in the RFP.
Following the FutureGen Alliance's identification of a list of candidate sites, DOE will use the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review process to determine which sites are acceptable from an environmental impact perspective. These sites will be identified by DOE in a public Record of Decision (ROD) by summer 2007. The FutureGen Alliance will choose the final project site early in the fall of 2007 from among those determined to be environmentally acceptable in the ROD. Construction would begin following the completion of the permitting process, with the plant operational by 2012.
The FutureGen plant will use cutting-edge technologies to generate electricity and hydrogen from coal while nearly eliminating emissions. It will also support testing and commercialization of technologies to capture and permanently store carbon dioxide. The FutureGen Alliance has an agreement with the DOE to site, develop, and operate the FutureGen plant.
Prospective site offerors, architecture and engineering firms, technology suppliers and other service providers are encouraged to monitor the FutureGen Alliance website for opportunities to participate. Inquiries from site offerors will be accepted only through the website.
The FutureGen Alliance member companies provide energy to tens of millions of U.S. and international residential, business and industrial customers. Member companies have global operations serving customers in Asia, Australia, Continental Europe, Canada, Mexico and the United States, among other regions.
Members of the Alliance include: American Electric Power; BHP Billiton; the China Huaneng Group; CONSOL Energy Inc.; Foundation Coal; Kennecott Energy, a member of the Rio Tinto Group; Peabody Energy; and Southern Company.
