Good morning.
Our early headlines:
-- Pentagon Says Two-War Strategy Not Likely To Be Scrapped.
-- Baghdad Rocked Again By Deadly Bomb Blasts.
Other stories making headlines:
Among the stories about today's unveiling of the Obama administration's new defense strategy is a New York Times report that says projected cuts in the number of Army troops would mean the military would no longer "be able to carry out two sustained ground wars at one time, as was required under past national military strategies."

The death toll is rising in Baghdad from another series of deadly bombings apparently aimed at Shiite Muslims.
About 30 people were killed today and more than 60 wounded, according to authorities, by explosions near two sites where day laborers were gathering to look for construction work.
Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour made his name in music, and now he wants to be president of his homeland.

Good morning. I'm Linda Wertheimer. For 35 years, Willis Welch received a pie every Christmas. From whom? He has no idea. Now the Columbus Dispatch reports the sweet streak is over. This Christmas, the last pie came with a note explaining, I am a little too fat to fly anymore. Signed, Pie Fairy. The 87-year-old says whoever it was knew him well enough to always bring his favorite - pecan pie. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
The Green Bay Packers are favored to repeat as Super Bowl champions, according to oddsmakers in Las Vegas. The Denver Broncos are not favorites. Quarterback Tim Tebow's team managed one close victory after another this season. But the odds are 120-1 against Denver winning it all.
President Obama used a recess appointment to name Richard Cordray head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Wednesday. Unlike similar appointments, the Senate hadn't technically recessed.
President Obama campaigned outside Cleveland, Ohio, Wednesday, where he announced the appointment of a new consumer watchdog. The president used a recess appointment to install Richard Cordray. That might have been routine, but the Senate is not officially in recess.
Linda Wertheimer has the Last Word in business.
Residents of Wichita, Kansas, are outraged after Boeing announced Wednesday that it will close a massive defense plant there. More than 2,000 highly skilled jobs will be gone by the end of next year. The announcement sparked considerable frustration among elected officials who had been lead to believe that more Boeing jobs were on the way to Wichita.

Pros: The pulp is dry, assembly is easy, the footprint is small and doesn't take up much counterspace, most parts are dishwasher safe Cons: The juice yield is minimal, nearly impossible to clean inner juicing mechanism without completely disassembling with a screwdriver and even then, hard to line up holes to reassemble, only juices small parts at a time, needs a long break after only 2 minutes of juicing or the motor overheats, not recommended for juicing more than 1/2 cup of vegetable juice yield
It worked four times and then quit. I now have to return it.
So far it has been great. I have only used it on low and it has been very powerful. Carrots, apples, beets etc. juice quickly and easily. I do cut them up in pieces before I put in. So far I am very happy I didn't spend more on a fancy version. This does the trick for me. Especially since I don't know how long I will be in the "juicing" mood.
I bought this juicer for my health plan, since my doctor told me I have a bit high blood pressure and should have more fresh fruits and vege. And juicing is great for you to intake enough vitamins and fibers with just one cup drinking. And this juicer did a good job for me, just as I expect . I use it every day, very easy to install and clean. Great value. Thanks overstock.com for this quality product.
I love this juicer only one problem alittle hard at first to take apart to clean...so i will use it every other day...other than that great!!!
The product is very good. It was delivered earlier than I expected. I am happy.
I took a chance and ordered the E-Ware extractor, because of the 700 watt motor and the pleasant color. I used it with medium to large apples and my juice was just as I imagined - great, and I got the pulp to add to my coffee cakes.
So far I've juiced carrots, tomatoes, kiwis, celery, cucumber, oranges, apples and garlic. This machine comes apart easily to clean as long as you do this immediately. I drink my juice, spread the peels, etc., over my plants and soil in the backyard, and rinse everything after. There are suction cups on the bottom that hold the juicer in place. I would recommend a veggie brush to clean the screened filter, otherwise everything else rinses off. Worth every penny and more!
It's a good deal for the price. I juice all kinds of fruits and veggies. I like it alot. My mom paid 200 for her juicer and we both make great juice.

No Flash Photography
July 1, 2012 in blog by Shelley
This is a topic that hits very close to home for me, how many of you have been on a dark ride in Walt Disney World and someone is snapping flash photos? It completely ruins the illusion of the ride. At the beginning of many rides, there is a recording that says that flash photography is not allowed. Please, please, please follow this rule!!
In 2009, my husband Jason and I visited Walt Disney World for the first time together. It was during March so there were a LOT of teenagers and kids there on spring break. We got in line for Pirates and unfortunately we were behind a gaggle of cheerleaders who were quite loud and annoying. We had no idea what we were in for.
We boarded our boat and Jason and I were the only ones who were not a part of the huge group that had been in front of us in line. I hoped for the best but the best was not to happen for us on that day. When the ride started, it was apparent that this was going to be the most annoying ride on Pirates that I had ever taken. The cheerleaders were very loud and one of them started taking flash photos immediately and continued throughout the ride. In the second scene, Jason got fed up and said very loudly "NO FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY!!" Now I understand maybe we could have handled this better, perhaps asked them in a nicer way but we were both SO annoyed. But, what happened next was completely unacceptable.
The girl taking the flash photos actually turned around in the boat and snapped a flash picture…OF US. The chaperones did nothing. We were so mad I'm surprised smoke wasn't coming out of our ears. But, what were we supposed to do? We were stuck in a boat with these people and the situation was already uncomfortable. We just sat there stunned for the rest of the ride.
I know now that after we got off the ride, we should have spoken to a Castmember about it and they would have put us on another boat straight away. But instead, we left angry. I think it might have helped if we had said "No flash photography, please". I have learned from my new Castmember friends that they are trained to always say "Please" and "Thank you" to diffuse a situation. I am still learning and I hope that I am able to diffuse situations like this a little bit better in the future.
Now, if you are on a dark ride and it is empty, I don't see a problem with taking flash pictures. Or, at the very least ask the people in your boat if they mind if you take flash pictures. I understand that not everyone gets to go to Disney World as often as I do and they want to capture their memories. But please take into account that a flash going off on a dark ride will destroy the illusion for everyone else around you. So, no flash photography please! Thank you.

Online Reservations
Took my friends to Trio for a birthday dinner. The weather was beautiful so we sat outside on the patio. We made a reservation so we were seated immediately. They have a very reasonable deal consisting of a 3 course meal for $19 with many delicious choices. The food was fabulous and our server was very attentive! I would definitely return to try other dishes that looked enticing!
I was visiting PS for my birthday weekend and Trio was recommended by a friend. It was easy to make a reservation and we were seated within a few minutes of arriving. They even decorated our table with birthday confetti! :) Our service was a little slow at first, but we were attended to by at least 3 different people. It is a busy place and always seemed to have someone around if needed. We started with the homemade potato chips w/ ranch dressing. These were so delicious!! Next we had our main dishes. One friend got the Sole, another got the pork chop and I had the lamb. Wow. The fish was light and refreshing. The pork chop was perfectly cooked and very flavorful. The lamb...fell right off the bone and was extremely moist and delicious!!
This was our second visit to Trio. Service and food were excellent. Wide variety of options. Will be returning.
We are in Palm Springs for a week and we've already been back twice with two different sets of friends. Great food, great service and great value. Their early bird until 6:00 pm can't be beat. We'll be back on each of our annual treks to Palm Springs
My husband and I loved Trio. Our food was fabulous. We had the shrimp Nola and the lamb shank and both were excellent. The wait staff was super friendly and were able to answer all questions about wine list and food. We will absolutely pass on this recommendation.
It was a very plesent dinning experience. The service, the food was perfect as always.
Everyone told us Trio was "the" place to eat in Palm Springs and they were not kidding. The food was awesome and the service was fantastic. By far our favorite night out. If you get the chance to try Trio, don't pass it up, you will not be disappointed.
Great service, always fun. Wonderful lamb shank -- so tender!
Michael, the server, was outstanding! The food, as always, did not disappoint, but . . . can't we keep the bread pudding deserts "normal" such as traditional or, at the most, chocolate chip? Pumpkin bread pudding . . .come on! The $19. Early Bird is a great value . . .keep it on the menu!
Truly a memorable experience. Trio was recommended by a friend, so expectations were high and Trio did not disappoint, super friendly service from everyone, ambiance inside was simply great, and the drinks and food topped it off to make for a dining experience we will repeat many more times when we are in Palm Springs.
We've been to Trio before though it wasn't on our list of regular places to eat in PS. After this visit, it IS on our list and we'll bump somebody off our list to be sure to include Trio in upcoming visits. Very nice service, wine, food, atmosphere. Well done!
I looked over the menu before making the reservation on open table - was extremely interested after reviewing the choices available. It was my 42nd birthday, and I was planning on dining there alone (because I don't know anyone in Palm Springs) - I ended up meeting someone; we arrived at the restaurant, announced that I had a "plus-1", and it was my birthday. We were seated at already decorated BIRTHDAY-THEMED TABLE, they also gave me an LED crown-ring to wear and free dessert / cupcake. So I was made to feel very special!!! in addition, the server was great / Abel was his name...the Soy Ceviche was a great appetizer & the pork chop entree was delicious! Next time im in PS...I'll be head to TRIO again (maybe twice)!
We were there for their anniversary party and the usual loud setting was more than loud. However, with all that was going on and a very large crowd in attendance, they were very professional and organized to handle the large group. The food is always good and the help is very friendly and capable. Our waiter was always there when we needed attention and very helpful. We have eaten at Trio many times and knew what we wanted to order. The food came out quickly, hot and prepared to our liking. We have always been happy with our dining experiences at Trio. A well managed restaurant with great food and better service. If you don't mind the noise and an active environment it is highly recommended.
Have been coming to Trio for a number of years when vacationing in Palm Springs. No matter how much others recommend other items I can't get passed the slow-roasted, rosemary infused chicken. Such a luscious, better-than-nostaligia dish. Just amazing. I've tried various appetizers - all are inventive and tasty - try the soy cerviche ( a fresh, delicious, vegan twist on an old favorite). I've tried various libations on their excellent bar menu. And, though I've heard other entrees are superb - I just have to have the chicken when I go. The wait staff is fun, dressed in orange, the vibe is celebratory, and the whole ambience is pure Palm Springs. We had a wonderful waiter named Terence this time…. we will return again and again.
love the orange decor... all the way down to the pens... it's always lively and it is a go to for anyone we invite to come down and visit... couple that with the street fair and it is an event... the food is always delicious...
We celebrated a nice birthday dinner for two at Trio. They had birthday confetti on the table, nice touch.Their pasta special was generous in size and the flavors are still lingering. Daniel, our server was attentive and made us feel as though we could stay the entire night even though it was a busy Friday night. We have always enjoyed dining there, and look forward to the next time.
Mac and cheese, pot roast and sea scallops.....all of our dinners were very good! The place is always lively and the staff works to make it a nice experience. Daniel was our server and he is always very friendly, professional and adds to our evening!
Great evening, friendly staff, delicious food, personal service. I was very impressed too that our waiter pointed out that I had left a tip on top of the gratuity that had automatically been added to our group of 6. Much appreciated!!!
I go to Trio often with out of Town guests and am almost always very pleased. They are consistant with good service and good food.. definately should be on everyone's list to visit.
Never saw a unique prix fixe menu like this. Food plentiful and delis. What a find! Fantastic art work thru out.
a special neighborhood find.. filled with locals who know good food and visitors who discovered the secret of the day..
Great presentation and taste of food. The prices were very reasonable. Will come back next time I am in town.
Food was good, but I thought the menu did not offer anything out of the ordinary. Also a little pricey if you consider what you get for the money. Service was good. Overall, a pretty good value.
Trio is consistent and always very good. Our friend from Australia really enjoyed his meal. They take very good care of their customers!
We keep saying we're going to try a different restaurant... And we always end up at Trio. It's always delicious with excellent service. The wine list is reasonable which is a great bonus.
The food was excellent and the service was very good. Had the spare ribs and they just melted like butter.
You need to reserve a table on Friday evening in palm springs! This favorite is fun and busy. Food is great, servers are quick and personable, prices are reasonable. Noise is a bit hight for us oldersters!
Service was excellent! Portions were a good size and food was tasty.
I love this restaurant! The staff is fantastic , helpful, available, and so wonderfully friendly. The place is cozy hip fun!
Trio provides a stable and solid menu selection of well prepared meals that delicious. The service is fantastic, especially if Mickey serves you. Another element, one that is not usually thought of I assume, is the other patrons. At Trio it is very easy to join into conversation with the table next you. But what is that TRULY makes this restaurant stand out? Management. There is an orderly flow that is conducted with ease and comfort. They simply do IT right. It was a pleasure dining there and it shall remain my Palm Springs "Go To" dinijg destination
I dine at Trio on a fairly regular basis. Tried the sole, it was excellent.
Great for brunch. 3 course meal for $19. is a remarkable value. Extremely friendly service.
Very very busy for happy hour! Energetic and full of people having a good time.
We had a great dinner at Trio. Two of us had the Thanksgiving Special, and two opted for other menu items (Ribeye Steak and Shepherd's Pie). Overall, we were very pleased with the meal, and would definitely return another time.
I love the energetic but quiet ambience of Trio, their superb service, and their varied menu (including 3 good options for vegetarians). It has the feel of a classic Palm Springs hang-out (the outer decor looks like the '60's, but in a good way). I always take friends there for Thanksgiving lunch, because it's so much fun; incorrigible carnivores can have the traditional turkey dinner while others can enjoy the 5-cheese Macaroni and Cheese.
I've been to Trio many times; sometimes just for Happy Hour, but for dinner, too. I've never been disappointed. Ive always enjoyed the food, and the service is attentive. I've tried several of the entrées but I think my favorite is the Yankee Pot Roast. It's a dish I love, and not many restaurants serve it. Trio's is delicious. The meat is tender, and falls apart, as pot roast should. i also like the fact that Trio supports local suppliers when they can; and they 'give back' to the community by sponsoring fundraisers. And they have a rewards card. Good place to eat!
We had a wonderful holiday dinner. They were more than gracious about accommodating our party of nine, and let us linger a bit after we were finished. The turkey was delicious. This is a great place to have a holiday meal.
Trio was recommended by a Palm Springs resident as a great local restaurant. We ate here for the Thanksgiving Feast for the second year in a row. The service is very friendly but not intrusive and the other patrons are friendly and warm. Many conversations take place from table to table. The food is amazing. I will definitely return for another meal.
Trio is our favorite restaurant in Palm Springs. We have never had a bad meal here. They have a good selection of wines and a great menu. I always have the Austrailian Sole which is out of this world! My Favorite here! My husband had the Ribeye and says it was excellent. The atmosphere here is lively and it does get a little noisy but after a glass of wine who cares! We always enjoy Trio.
A GREAT find in PS! Fresh, always something new on the menu, and I really like the Prefix menus.
Thanks to the Trio group for another great Saturday night. I know this restaurant has gotten some bad opinions lately but I always find the staff to be friendly, flirty and just fun to hang with. I will be back again as I always do when I'm in PS. Thanks again!!
Lived in PS since May of this year, been hearing about Trio, finally went & could not have been happier with our dining experience. Everything was great: reception & seating, service, food, ambience, you name it, it was great. Have been referring to Trio as "perfect." What else is there to say?!
All staff was very busy and Bartender Matt, Waiter Mike or Michel and even the busboy (sorry can't remember the name) ALL took extra steps to make our evening wonderful.. I like to dine at 7P and therefore usually can't get that time slot and so I move on to another and another until I get what I want time wise. This time I knew in advance, three weeks exactly who were my guests and when they were coming so I was able to get in. Dinner was a treat. I am so very glad it worked out. I have been to lunch many times but it had been awhile for dinner.
Love the food. Service was great even though they were busy.
an amazing experience with plenty of food choices superb vegetarian dishes great cocktails and 4 sure. Great price love love it
I went for lunch today because of a event this evening. I was VERY HAPPY with my Lunch GREAT for Lunch as well as Dinner
Always great - I like it for lunch - business meetings. Night time a little nosiy.
The food is perfect. Good portions. Drinks are great. Nice wine list. One drawback - it is SO popular that its becoming a bit loud.
always a great spot for dinner, food is great, and the fixed prix is the best deal in town. the staff is friendly and nothing istoo much trouble, would return in a heart beat.
Trio does everything right. Great value, friendly/efficient service, innovative menu, good sized cocktails, and on and on. We love it!

The Year of Catholic Education was announced by Bishop Malcolm McMahon at the Big Assembly at St Mary's University College, Twickenham on Friday, 17 September 2010 during the Papal Visit. This Sunday was also Education Sunday, a national day of prayer and celebration for everyone involved in the world of education.
In his pastoral letter for the occasion, which has been celebrated in England and Wales since 1878, Bishop McMahon OP wrote:
"As the Gospel appointed for Education Sunday tells us, we must be prepared to 'go the extra mile'. It is through the dedication and active faith of thousands of men and women — teachers, leaders, governors and staff, as well as the love and support of parents and the prayers of the whole community that our schools are able to serve so effectively communities throughout Britain.
"Our schools must always be places where faith, hope and love are fostered, and in this special Year of Celebration of Catholic Education I am full of hope for the future."
That they may have life
The year is a celebration of the great contribution that Catholic education makes towards the common good.
The theme of the Year of is: "I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full" (John 10:10).
With that contribution in mind, we want to look at why the faith and teaching have been so closely linked, in our final Lumen post.
"With the breakdown in civil society following the collapse of the Roman Empire, the monastic system played a crucial role in preserving texts, libraries and education."
The establishment of universities across Europe in the middle-ages was a major achievement too.

Cruise and Liner History: THE BOOTH LINE from LIVERPOOL SHIPS.
The HILARY sailing up the Amazon.
The Booth Steamship Company's HILARY of 1931 operated the Booth Line service from Liverpool to Manaus, 1,000 miles up the AMAZON.
Ordering the passenger-cargo liner HILARY at the height of the depression was a mark of considerable faith by the Booth Line, and the placing of the order locally on Merseyside was much appreciated.
The HILARY in her original form with a black hull and a funnel without the houseflag…
The HILARY was launched on 17th April 1931 and was completed by August. She sailed on her maiden voyage from Liverpool to Para and Manaus on 14th August, The new HILARY could easily be recognized by her distinctive three-note triple-chime steam whistle.

I've heard rumors that many many people here in the US are just importing the euro version... idk if that could skew numbers much but figure it is worth noting.
PSN: CptnAmerica
Twitch: CptnAmeric4
After a freaking month of finding out of stock signs on every import site i can think of finally the game is in stock at Amazon. I guess yet again South Africa is maybe not considered a PAL territory when they said its getting a PAL release? What a bunch of assholes Nintendo are!!! I had to pay extra also for the import. Nice one Nintendo. How anyone could ever be a Nintendo fanboy when they treat their fans like this ill never know. Anyways im looking forward to this game immensely no thanks to Nintendo i might add!!!
I've played 10 hours so far and have only made it to Bionis' Thigh (game starts on Bionis' Shin). The world is seriously huge. it's going to take so long finding every little area.
the game looks really good except for the character's faces (eg. the eyes are just flat images like back in the N64 days).
battles are fun and often hectic. sometimes there's so much happening that you're not sure what's going on. you have to be careful which monsters you fight. some look weak but can really crush you.
luckily the only drawback to losing a battle is you go back to the last checkpoint you passed. all the exp you receive stays so there's no need to worry about getting killed.
the english voice acting is absolutely terrible. good thing they kept the Japanese audio on the disc.
i really hope Nintendo are planning a HD version for WiiU. It would suck for people in NA to not get this game. upping it to WiiU would make up for the current situation.
If people continue to harass Nintendo petition, they may give up in the final. They will go "Shurrrup! This is your stupid role-playing, left alone ... we are busy with 9 WII ü party, do we finally have the perfect line of coke off, time for a real party "one controller.

Which Charlton side will turn up against Barnsley?
9:38am Friday 19th October 2012 in Sport
ADDICKS columnist MATIAS GREZ isn't sure which Charlton side will turn up against Barnsley tomorrow – the one which won at Blackpool in the last game or the team beaten tamely at home by Watford.
IT'S hard to gauge just how well or badly Charlton will play in tomorrow's meeting with Barnsley, which makes it even harder to write about them rationally and fairly in this column on a game-by-game basis.
I think all teams, including the Manchester Uniteds of this world, suffer changing fortunes over the course of a season but I find it highly unlikely anyone else is experiencing the drastic weekly fluctuations we as Charlton fans are.
After the woeful performance against 10-man Watford, not even the most optimistic of Charlton fans could have predicted the mature, organised and dogged 2-0 away win against Blackpool – not forgetting the touch of class added by Chris Solly, of course.
It is baffling how the same players who played so poorly against the Hornets could produce a performance of that magnitude at Blackpool.
Chris Powell must be scratching his head in disbelief and frustration at the inconsistency shown by his team.
If there are positives to take from Charlton's first 10 games it's that they have proven they are more than capable of mixing it with the big boys of Championship, as the wins against Blackpool and Leicester and the draws against Birmingham and Blackburn proved.
There was a period just before the start of the season when a lot of Charlton fans, myself included, were guilty of getting carried away with thoughts of back-to-back promotion.
However, after a few games reality struck and everybody came around to the sobering thought this season was, first and foremost, about consolidation.
Considering the lack of investment in the club over the summer and the need for Chris Powell to get players on free transfers and loan deals, getting anywhere near promotion would be a monumental ask.
Although, if the Addicks do manage to get rid of their inconsistency and string together a month's worth of good results, the top half of the table is not far off.
On Saturday, Chris Powell's men have the chance to show in excess of 20,000 fans exactly what they are capable of and give those who only venture to The Valley during Football for a Fiver a reason to come back once the ticket prices return to normal.
With regards to off-field matters, the Daily Mirror last week reported Charlton wanted Paul Elliot to become the Addicks' new chairman, and the first black chairman in history, allowing Michael Slater to take a more hands-off role at the club.
However, this rumour was extinguished as quickly as it was ignited with Slater denying claims that he had offered Elliot the chairman's position.
On and off the field, there is certainly no lack of drama at The Valley this season!

NBA AM: Scoring Title Supremacy: Kobe Or Durant?
Who you got in the scoring title race, Kevin Durant or Kobe Bryant? While there is still some jockeying for position going on in the playoff race, the 2012 postseason field itself is now officially locked in.
What is up for grabs and still ripe for the taking is this season's scoring title – and the race will come down to the wire.
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant and Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant are locked in a duel to take home top scoring honors for 2012.
Durant is averaging 27.97 points on the season, which is just 0.11 points better than Bryant's 27.86.
The battle represents old versus new, the inevitable changing of the guard. But can Bryant push through and score one for the vets?
Durant has won the last two scoring titles and is vying to become the first player to win three straight crowns since Michael Jeffrey Jordan accomplished the feat from 1995-98. He'd also join legends such as Wilt Chamberlain, George Mikan, Bob McAdoo and George Gervin as guys to pull off at least three straight.
Bryant, a five time NBA champion, would be looking to win the third scoring title of his career, winning the first two in 2006 and 2007.
The Thunder play host to the playoff bound Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night.
The Lakers will travel to Sacramento to face the lottery bound Kings on Thursday, thus Bryant will know exactly how many points he'll need to take home the crown this year.
Here are some scenarios to keep in mind
- If Durant scores 18 points, Bryant would need to score 26 points in his finale to take home the scoring title
- If Durant scores 25 points, Bryant would need to score 32 points in his finale to take home the scoring title
- If Durant scores 30 points and Bryant scores 36 the scoring title race would end in a tie
- If Durant scores between 30-39 points, Bryant would need to top his score by at least 6 points to take home the scoring title
- If Durant scores between 40-48 points, Bryant would need to top his score by at least 5 points to take home the scoring title
- If Durant scores between 49-58 points, Bryant would need to top his score by at least 4 points to take home the scoring title
- If Durant scores between 59-68 points, Bryant would need to top his score by at least 3 points to take home the scoring title
Never forget, guys take this stuff seriously, and especially their teammates.
Who will forget San Antonio Spurs center David Robinson's teammates feeding him the ball repeatedly in the 1994 regular season finale on his way to 71 points and the scoring title over Shaquille O'Neal?
Publicly, Durant is embracing the challenge of the showdown with Bryant but stopping short of making it his top priority.
"Kobe's an unbelievable scorer, man, and he's having a great season as well," Durant told Darnell Mayberry of The Oklahoman. "If it happens, then it's cool. If not, then I'm not worried about it. I'm just going to go out there and play my game. I'm not going to force anything just so I can score more points than Kobe."
Two of the most prolific scorers in the league over the past twenty years, bragging rights on the line, battling for the scoring title – with only one game remaining in the season.
Can't beat that.
Who do you think walks away with the scoring crown? Leave your comments below.
Playoffs Mean Small Redemption For Al Jefferson: Statistically speaking, since October 2007 you'd be hard pressed to find a big man in the league that has put up the kind of numbers Utah Jazz center Al Jefferson has been posting nightly.
In those 350 contests, Jefferson has averaged 19.6 points and 10.1 rebounds on close to 50 percent shooting from the floor.
The numbers looked real good on paper; the problem was Jefferson had started to develop a reputation as a guy who could get his numbers every single time he laced up the high tops, but at the end of the season his teams would always be on the outside looking in at the playoffs.
Despite the gaudy box scores, Jefferson's name was never called for an All-Star selection or All-NBA team.
In fact, after serving as the face of the rebuilding Minnesota Timberwolves' franchise, Jefferson was dealt for Kosta Koufos and two first-round picks to Utah.
The T'Wolves had decided power forward Kevin Love would be the guy to get them back to the land of relevancy.
Well, on Tuesday night Jefferson hushed some of his critics as the Jazz knocked off the Phoenix Suns to clinch a postseason berth. For Jefferson, it will be his first trip to the playoffs since 2005, when he was a rookie with the Boston Celtics.
"Seven long years; seven long years since I have been in the playoffs," Jefferson told the Salt Lake Tribune after Tuesday's win over Phoenix. "It's a blessing. It's a great opportunity to get here, a lot of people counted us out, nobody thought this team would be in a position to get in the playoffs, and we made it. It's a great group of guys and everyone on our team deserves it."
With a first round playoff matchup likely looming versus the top seeded and veteran laden San Antonio Spurs, the Jazz won't have much time to celebrate.
But Jefferson took a moment to soak in the Jazz's ride this season and the joy of exceeding most people's expectations.
"It was a long road," Jefferson said. "We started with short training camp, with a young team. We just stayed with it, Coach believed in us, we believed in ourselves, we got confidence and everybody just stepped up. It's just a wonderful feeling we worked real hard to get here. I'm just proud of all the guys and everybody who just stayed with it."
The Jazz wouldn't have made it this far without Jefferson who led the team in points (19.4), rebounds (9.7) and blocks (1.7) this season.
Metta World Peace Shows Remorse: As HOOPSWORLD's Eric Pincus outlined last night, Los Angeles Lakers forward Metta World Peace was suspended by the league for his vicious elbow to the head of Oklahoma City Thunder guard James Harden on Sunday.
Some called for a much stiffer penalty given World Peace's history of on the court run-ins.
Peace maintained the act of throwing the elbow was part of his celebration for converting a dunk attempt.
On Tuesday night, Peace issued a statement showing remorse for his actions and wishing his victim a timely return to on court action.
"I hope James Harden is OK. I apologize to the Oklahoma City Thunder fans and the OKC organization…I look forward to getting back on the floor with my teammates and competing for the Lakers and the Lakers fans."
Peace also reportedly cancelled an appearance on Conan O'Brien's late night talk show.
The suspension will begin with the Lakers' regular season finale on Thursday versus the lottery bound Sacramento Kings.

Thank you for your answer.
Hello everyone,
I want to ask a question, how the methode to know that if a manga is hentai or not?
Thank you for your answer.
It should have a warning on the cover.
And should say 18+? 0_o
and should be in a different section.
It gives you a funny feeling when you read it.
It awakens your Johnny.
Whenever you encounter one, you might be overcome by a strong feeling of wanting solitude... To be nowhere in sight... To be conscious and aware that no one is near you...
When the story is too ridiculous for it to possibly be a normal manga.
when you reading it, you got this funny feeling on the lower part of your body...
doesn't really has to...
real answer: when the review said that it is...
now the problem for me is where do you put manga like 'my lovely ghost kana', 'gakuen heaven', 'my balls', 'virgin na kankei' and many others are?? are these also a hentai?? an ecchi-smut?? or what??
easy....its just when you hen then it will tai..
as simple as that..haha
Say whatever you like but still I believe in ODAWESOME!
I still believe Gomu Gomu fruit deserve to be a Logia
Lets read VAGABOND of Inoue Takehiko (Slamdunk)

93. Working-class Housing, 55th and Alameda Streets, Los Angeles, ca. 1930. Relative cheapening of land brought by the automobile meant a slight enlargement of the most inexpensive house lots, a bit more open than
comparable rapid-transit-and-street-railway-dominated Chicago and New York mass housing. Historical Collections, Security Pacific National Bank
94. Yards in Colon Street, Wilmington, 1945. The extra increment of land allowed working-class housing to age well. Garages could be converted into rentals and still meet minimum sanitary and fire safety standards; garden fragments could survive even in the lowest-income neighborhoods. Mason Dooley
95. Whittier Boulevard near Atlantic Boulevard, East Los Angeles, 1924. Subdividers continued to follow the standard American grid street and rectangular house lot practice used to parcel out the nation's land since the westward movement began. Historical Collections, Security Pacific National Bank
96. Whittier Boulevard, Belvedere, ca. 1924. Main street became the endless shopping strip. History Division, Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History
97. San Vicente Boulevard at Crescent Heights, Los Angeles, 1929. The prosperous middle class fared little better than the mass at the hands of private real-estate developers. Expensive houses, in English cottage, Spanish and American colonial styles, crowded the small rectangular lots. History Division, Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History
98. Sunset and Beverly Boulevards, Beverly Hills, 1924. Only the wealthy benefited from the garden potential of southern California suburbs: hill sites, large grid lots adapted to streets following contours of the land, small parks and extensive street plantings preceded the luxury-home buyer. County of Los Angeles Regional Planning Commission, Spence Air Photo
99. Court, 1st Street, Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, 1971. The only useful innovation of Los Angeles urban architecture was the mutiple-family courtyard. It began as a mean small-apartment barracks set in a U shape along a single walk, filling an entire rectangular lot. This primitive practice continues today in the cheapest motor courts. Mason Dooley
100. Court, Pinafore Street, Baldwin Hills, Los Angeles, 1971. Since World War II middle-income families have been attracted to an expanded court design, now often in a hollow square, two and three stories high, requiring several rectangular house lots. Peripheral parking, central garden and swimming pool are standard amenities, a kind of apartment design that overcomes both the social isolation and parking problems of the more land-conserving apartment blocks of Eastern cities. Mason Dooley
101. Apartment Towers, Avenue of the Stars, Century City, Los Angeles, 1971. In marked contrast to the courts, which will decay humanely, Los Angeles developers erect on expensive and fashionable land luxury apartment towers, which maximize isolation of tenant from tenant, and tenants from the surrounding city. In half a century, when today's mortgages are paid off, the city as a whole will inherit heavy social costs as these structures decay into the worst kind of slum rookeries. Mason Dooley
a widely diversified metropolis given over to manufacturing, commerce, service, and war production.[33]
During the twenties and thirties, irrigated agriculture, oil discoveries, the motion-picture boom, and waves of Midwestern and Texan migrants seeking a pleasant place to live and work swelled the city's size. Oil revenues in part financed the construction of an ocean port at Long Beach, and favorable rail connections to the Southwest and the East (the city lies a few miles closer to Chicago than San Francisco does) made Los Angeles a preferred site for warehouses and branch plants of national corporations. During the twenties, for example, both Ford and Goodyear built Pacific plants there, and many other firms followed suit. But the city was handicapped by the circumstance that its factories were some two thousand miles from the western edge of the Midwestern manufacturing belt at St. Louis. Therefore the sectors of the metropolitan economy devoted to general machinery and metalworking—sectors of vital importance to a fully elaborated industrial region—did not develop during these years. Los Angeles in 1940, for all its impressive size, was not yet committed to manufacturing.[34]
Thirty years of almost continuous hot and cold wars ended this anomaly. Tremendous aircraft orders from the federal government not only caused that particular industry to shoot ahead, but federal sponsorship of aerospace research and all sorts of war material fostered supportive manufacturing, until today the city is the only fully diversified manufacturing region outside the belts of the Northeast and Midwest. To be sure, Los Angeles still has its agricultural, aircraft, electronic, and movie specialties, just as Chicago still concentrates on steel, machinery, and printing and New York on garments, leather, printing, electrical equipment, and national offices, but since the 1950s a full range of complementarities has been available in Los Angeles to boost further expansion.[35]
Three special characteristics of the Los Angeles metropolis stand out by comparison with the earlier examples of New York and Chicago:
its high degree of spatial freedom, its potential for a more equitable and inclusive class and racial society, and its growth in response to deliberate federal programs.
The land-use and transportation structure of Los Angeles gives glimpses of a more humane environment than we have yet enjoyed. The special factor of the city's social geography is its low density of settlement, the ease and scope of movement of the overwhelming proportion of its citizens, and its comparative lack of domination by a single downtown area. It has thus escaped the rigid core, sector, and ring structure of business and residential occupation that tyrannized the industrial metropolis and from which older cities are only now beginning to extricate themselves. Los Angeles is an amorphous metropolis, and vast tracts of it have a rather uniform low-density settlement of five to twenty-four persons per acre. Along the Pacific in the Santa Monica and Long Beach areas and in a crescent of housing from Santa Monica through Beverly Hills to the old core city there are apartment houses and multiple-dwelling neighborhoods that resemble those in Chicago or New York. Also scattered through the metropolis, especially along its shopping strips, stand many of the motel-like courts that are the contemporary slum-tenement style of the American city; but the single-family dwelling has long been the glory of Los Angeles and the expression of its design for living. Sixty-four percent of all its occupied housing in 1967 was given over to single-family dwelling units.[36]
The plan for a metropolis composed of single-family houses did not emerge from the drawing boards of freeway engineers; their constructions followed an already entrenched preference of the Angelenos. During the twenties three social factors had converged to establish the Los Angeles plan: the cultural preference of Americans for detached private homes, the need to supply water for burgeoning land development, and the sheer pleasure and freedom bestowed by the automobile.
Three out of four of the army of migrants who came into southern California during the early part of the twentieth century were white native-born Americans from the cities to the east and from the farms and small towns of the Midwest.[37] City dwellers and farmers alike brought with them an ingrained tradition of the single-family house as
the measure of a home and of Main Street or suburbia as the measure of satisfactory living. The American has often had to share his housing with others—in rented rooms, in two-family houses, in tenements of three, six, or more flats—but given the opportunity he has customarily sought a house of his own. Moreover, just as in the case of Chicago's middle class, in the Los Angeles region no thirst for the big-city life of skyscrapers, restaurants, and theaters has tempted him to sacrifice the privacy of a tree-shaded lawn and garden for apartment luxury or for the urban habits of the nineteenth-century inhabitants of European or American industrial cities. In sum, people came to southern California seeking a warm, sunlit, home-town city.
To provide these amenities in the first decades of the twentieth century in the face of the aridity of Los Angeles, residential property carried high land-preparation costs and so had to be developed in tracts of considerable size. An expensive water supply had to be meshed with public transportation to a degree unheard-of in the modest subdivisions common in Eastern cities. Speculators capitalized on the situation by building a wide-range complex of electric interurban streetcars. They hoped that their initial investment in lines that stretched from twenty to thirty-five miles out from the downtown area would be justified by massive profits from future land development and ensuing heavy traffic on their routes. Los Angeles in 1920, compared to other cities of the period, was extraordinarily extended into large-scale suburban development.[38]
The automotive boom of the twenties carried these trends toward diffusion to modern proportions. The general ownership of automobiles and their use in commuting allowed developers to open up smaller tracts beyond walking distance from the interurbans. When these lines began to lose money from competition with automobiles and when traffic jams in downtown Los Angeles became intolerable, the municipality called for the construction of a rapid-transit system to alleviate traffic, revitalize the street railways, and save the downtown. Other cities had voted for subways in the twenties, but Los Angeles did not follow the precedents; its citizens voted down the proposals. Their city was so new and open that they had no image before them of a desirable downtown, and they had no habit of listening to the appeals of downtown business leaders.
Then, too, their tradition told them that happiness lay in another style of life.[39]
During the Great Depression the public transportation system cut back its service, and after World War II the interurban lines closed down; today the public bus lines handle a small volume of passengers—400,000 fewer than in 1939. Without the discipline of street railways, commerce drained from the core city to spread out along strips of land like Wilshire Boulevard. Suburban towns like Glendale and Pasadena established their own downtowns, and suburban shopping centers and office clusters have sprung up to form a multicentered metropolis.[40]
The key decision in the determination of the spatial freedom of its residents came in 1939, when the Los Angeles Freeway plans were settled into a multicentered pattern. A failing public transit, serious traffic jams, and a new state statute that permitted construction of limited-access highways had prompted the City of Los Angeles to commission still another study of its transportation problems. The Works Progress Administration of the federal government carried out a traffic census, and on the basis of these findings the City of Los Angeles Transportation and Engineering Board made its recommendations; freeways would be the solution to the region's traffic difficulties. The unusual multicity and multicounty membership of the advisory board may have accounted for its metropolitan orientation. Besides Los Angeles officials, representatives from such scattered places as Glendale, Beverly Hills, Redondo Beach, Huntington Beach, Whittier, Pasadena, and the San Fernando and San Gabriel valleys sat on the board. The 1939 plan called for limited-access express highways to be laid out in the form of a giant grid, which would be capable of carrying automobile traffic both into and out of the overcrowded Los Angeles central business district and would guide it across the city without the necessity of its going through the downtown area. The principal justification for this plan was the board's recognition of the already highly dispersed character of the region. Many of its alignments were to follow the much-traveled state highways that crisscrossed the area. The report may well have reflected too the politics of the Transportation Board itself. Although no record survives of its discussions, it seems highly probable that the members
from the more distant areas would not have accepted the conventional hub-and-wheel design that was at this time being proposed for old American single-core cities, since such a plan would have drawn business away from their own centers. The board did expect, however, that Los Angeles would eventually grow to be a conventional single-centered city and that in time commuter railroads and subways would be required.[41]
The 1939 proposal for freeways derives its historical importance from the fact that it was subsequently adopted and adapted in a succession of plans and projects. The first undertakings, begun in 1940 with the Pasadena Freeway, all converged on the downtown (the Hollywood, San Bernardino, Santa Aria, and Harbor Freeways), thereby beginning a radial scheme for serving the downtown, but wartime and postwar planning studies continued to repeat the basic grid strategy of the 1939 report. Then in 1956, when the federal government passed its Interstate Highway law, the California legislature set up a committee to establish routes for the state. The routes that were then adopted incorporated the 1939 proposal for a grid system of metropolitan freeways, and many such highways have been built in the ensuing years.[42] The grid is still being extended at its outer margins in order to keep up with the spread of the metropolis, and it is being added to at the center to relieve traffic congestion further, but for many years now Los Angeles has enjoyed a transportation system that permits its residents to move swiftly from subcenter to subcenter over the entire region without having to go through the downtown or any lesser center.[43]
The social consequences of the multicentered, low-density metropolitan region are manifold and are important to our urban future. First and foremost was the increase in the job choices offered the urban resi-
dent. In 1967 there were three automobiles for every seven persons in the Los Angeles region; 41 percent of the households had access to one vehicle, 44 percent had access to two or more vehicles, and only 15 percent of the households lacked a car.[44] Such a distribution of automobiles and freeways gives the Los Angeles employee the widest choice of job opportunities ever possible in an American city. An hour's drive from any point in the region makes hundreds of possible employers accessible. A man can live in the San Fernando Valley and work in the old industrial sector of southeast Los Angeles, or he can commute from the old core-city neighborhoods to the new steel mills at Fontana. These are extreme commuting distances, to be sure, but recent studies show that blue-collar workers in particular are crisscrossing the whole area in search of the best jobs.[45] In the past urban workers were pinned down to living next to their mills, or they purchased their economic freedom by commuting from crowded core-city working-class and slum districts along the radial lines of the streetcar system. These journeys were long, the cars crowded and slow, and transfers and waits in the cold and wet often necessary. Such trials cannot be compared with the ease of an hour's run today in a private car or car pool. In Los Angeles most commuters go directly from their home to the company parking lot, and the majority travel alone; more than 70 percent of all weekday automobile trips are taken by a single driver.[46]
To this economic freedom must be added the social advantages that have accrued to the Los Angeles public. The greater number of car trips are not work-related at all but are undertaken for social or recreational purposes or for shopping. Thus scattered friends and relatives, long shopping strips and outlying shopping centers, the Pacific beaches, and national parks are all within easy reach of most families. At the same time the city is able to grow by continuing to build in its low-density popular single-family or low-rise apartment-court style.
Like all American cities, the Los Angeles automobile metropolis does not extend its amenities equally to all its residents but reinforces sharp differences governed by class and race. Boyle Heights, an early twentieth-century neighborhood in East Los Angeles, offers some of the attractions of small-town life to its Mexican-American residents. Watts
and the black ghetto have many of the same features. Yet the poor, lacking cars and perhaps also fearful of their reception in other parts of the metropolis, do not travel over large sections of the region as residents of the San Fernando Valley might do.[47] Women and old people especially suffer from a dearth of cars. The women thus lack access to jobs that would boost family income, and to essential shopping and health services. For the men, transportation doesn't seem to be the problem. Once they find employment they seem to be able to purchase cars on time.[48]
The solution to the disadvantaged position of those without cars is neither difficult nor expensive, but like all our cities Los Angeles remains heedless of the needs and suffering of its poor, its blacks, its Mexican Americans, and its old people. After the Watts riot the transportation problems of the poor were made plain, and the state of California, with federal funding, set up a demonstration project in southeast Los Angeles to attempt to deal with the problem. A social science team intervened in behalf of the poor in several ways. They became the spokesmen of the neighborhoods before the bus companies; they waged campaigns to have route maps printed and distributed and to persuade the companies to post the schedules at the bus stops. They discovered that the last bus might leave a factory's gates a few minutes before the men finished their daily shifts; they discovered routes that could be instituted or altered to reflect the commuting habits of the residents. It seems clear from the findings of this team that the cost cutting of private and public bus companies should be monitored in every city by a political agency representing the transportation interests of those outside the circle of the automobile world. The altering of existing public transportation, however, was not sufficient. The women needed short runs along shopping strips and to shopping centers and they needed long trips in every direction to reach scattered job sites. To this end the experiment rented buses for some new regular routes and also used station wagons and cars for a kind of metropolitan taxi service
to jobs at such widely dispersed destinations as Lockheed in Burbank, Douglas Aircraft at Long Beach, Torrence, and Santa Monica, American Electric at La Mirada, and Sergent-Fletcher in El Monte. The cost of these services was high, but could have been much reduced if established permanently. The demonstration project was a success, but in 1971, when the funds were gone, predictably the grant by the federal government was not renewed and the service closed down.[49]
Judging from this experience, a few millions of dollars a year spent in maintaining an agency to represent the carless and offer its own flexible small-bus service would redress the worst of the access problems attendant on Los Angeles' unequal distribution of family income. To be sure, those without cars are the ones who suffer most from low wages, from job discrimination against women, old people, blacks, and the ill-educated, and from regional and national callousness toward the unemployed and the underemployed, but even a modest effort would be far more useful to the poor than the currently fashionable enthusiasm for rail lines. Railroads by their very nature offer high-volume service only along their own narrow strip. Los Angeles is neither a linear nor a radial city; it is a multicentered city that calls for multidestination public transportation.
Finally, although Los Angeles does not have the problem of choking traffic jams and hard-to-reach areas like those of New York, it does have a serious air-pollution problem. In view of the enormous investment and great social success of the freeways, it seems foolish not to try to eliminate the smog in similar terms. Surely the technology of the moon era is capable of manufacturing low-emission engines as an alternative to the present disgraceful pollution created by Los Angeles' 4.5 million automobiles.
Since all of the metropolises and the three megalopolises of the United States are growing into the form of Los Angeles, it is important that we understand the social potential of this diffuse layout of building. The open character of Los Angeles has resulted in a land-use structure more favorable for the achievement of racial and class justice than any that has so far existed in any large American city. This structure is only a potential for justice, however, and remains far from realization.
Los Angeles is no better than most cities when it comes to racial discrimination, segregation, and disadvantages for its poor. The county
population is 10.8 percent black, 13.5 percent of Spanish surname. The isolation of blacks is almost as extreme as in Chicago. The Mexican Americans are less rigidly segregated from the Anglo Americans than are the blacks, but nonetheless they are highly segregated.[50] When the frustration of the black community exploded with the Watts riots of 1965, a national chain reaction was set in motion, and since that time there have been a number of Mexican-American riots expressing the conflicts of another disadvantaged community. All the hostility and failings of our society, so fully documented in 1968 by the Kerner Commission and in other reports, are part of Los Angeles as well. But if it wishes to build a more inclusive society, it has a special advantage in the availability of land for redevelopment and in abundant fringe land for new construction. The prerequisite for making good use of the land in terms of its society is a commitment by the national government and the Los Angeles public and its officials to make a decent house and neighborhood open to every resident. With such a commitment, new housing can become the framework for an inclusive urban society, rejecting the city's present mechanism for class, racial, and ethnic segregation.
The original low density of Los Angeles' construction has saved it from mortgaging its future. Its built-up areas are not so crammed with structures that new construction in old areas brings serious dislocation of present residents, as is the case in Chicago or New York. There is vacant land all over the Los Angeles region. This land is in the form of weedy lots and unused spaces, some large enough for development in their own right, some requiring some demolition of adjacent houses. If public agencies were to build on five-acre tracts they would find land, either vacant or sparsely occupied, by the hundreds of parcels all over the city. Such land is ideal for the design and construction of low-rise apartments, two-family housing, and town houses. In other words, existing styles of housing could become the basis for a massive public housing program that would not disrupt the physical fabric of the city. Federal programs for land clearance, housing, and rent subsidies allow such housing to be offered today to the fourth of the Los Angeles population who cannot afford decent housing at present prices. Such
federal programs, however, would have to be so funded as to allow for a large-scale and sustained undertaking.[51]
At least three important social consequences would be derived from such a small-parcel program. First, the chronic shortage of low-income housing would be relieved. Second, the abundance of scattered sites would enable blacks, Mexican Americans, and the poor to choose to settle either near their present neighborhoods or in new distant sections of the city. The degree of social pioneering undertaken by any family would be according to their own choice and would not depend on the decision of public authorities. Third, the five-acre tracts would have to be designed to fit into the styles prevailing in their environs or else face strong local opposition. Perhaps this requirement that design attain at least the levels of popular taste would save the projects from the degradation of some of the philanthropic architectural styles that now stigmatize public housing.
At its fringes the Los Angeles freeway brings large tracts of vacant land within the reach of commuters. This same situation prevails in the Eastern and Midwestern megalopolis and all metropolises. Here publicly sponsored or managed new towns of 50,000 to 200,000 residents could be used as a device for increasing the residential options of black and low-income families. The key advantage of the new-town concept, or entire-city building scheme, over the conventional suburban subdivision lies in its coordination of public facilities with employment and housing. The new town can be built around industries to provide jobs for a range of skills and classes. The schools and health services can be built in the beginning so that the residents do not create unnecessary conflict by overloading small local community services. Finally, because these would be large projects, the social engineering of building at all class levels would become feasible. Los Angeles is currently building a beautiful new town at Irvine. Its extent is 53,000 acres, and it will ultimately hold 430,000 inhabitants.[52] It has jobs, recreation, an airport, and community facilities laid out in such a way that the native California land form is undisturbed. It is a brilliant example of the advantage of large-scale new-town development over the spread of subdivisions. Despite all this, Irvine is a social scandal—an all-white, upper-middle-class enclave. It is exactly the sort of project that at once shows the high
potential of the new metropolis and its bigoted, class-bound failure to realize that potential.
Finally, Los Angeles should be understood as an outstanding example of regional and national planning. Its port at Long Beach, its interstate water-supply system, and its national parks and forests are excellent examples of well-designed and coordinated large-scale planning. Its war-stimulated growth is of interest precisely because it demonstrates an important but as yet little exercised capability of the federal government to influence the prosperity of a metropolitan region. The Los Angeles experience shows that we have depressed cities and depressed regions only because we have chosen to let them go unattended.
Several principles governing a successful national urban policy can be derived from the federal sponsorship in Los Angeles. First, federal orders for products and services, direct intervention in the construction of plants, and long-term aid in the building of water and electric facilities encouraged and sustained its growth.[53] In the case of huge aircraft orders and the subsequent erection of aircraft plants with federal funds, the investment helped an industry that had already taken root to settle in more firmly. The additional contracts in the fields of aerospace and war material were instrumental in bringing the blossoming electronics industry into the city from the East.
Second, the magnitude of orders and assistance exceeded any later federal attempts to foster business in depressed areas through favored purchasing, small-business loans, and Office of Economic Opportunity programs. Aside from the money spent for war material, tools were being forged here for a national policy directed to urban growth and regional employment guidance, but our low-key use of these tools and our compulsion to tie them to the Congressional pork barrel have rendered them ineffective.[54]
Third, the federal infusion of capital into the area continued over a long period—at least thirty years—without serious interruption, so that the war specialties of Los Angeles have been consistently nourished.
Fourth, the Los Angeles case showed that special institutions could be used to upgrade a regional labor force that had been neither particularly skilled nor outstandingly intelligent. The government sponsored here the foundation of nonprofit research and development corpora-
tions, such as RAND and the Systems Development Corporation, to supplement the educational and research capabilities of the California Institute of Technology, the University of Southern California, and the University of California. These additional institutions, by attracting scientists and engineers to the region, did much to accelerate the city's movement into higher levels of technology, and at a pace more rapid than would have prevailed if the city had depended only upon its universities and the technical staffs of resident aircraft and electronic concerns.[55] In the Boston metropolitan region, similar paramilitary institutions helped raise the level of a management and labor force formerly connected to the dragging textile industry, and it seems probable that the Houston Manned Spacecraft Center will have the same effect in Texas. These instances suggest that the federal government could create research and service institutions for civilians as a device to upgrade the industries and labor forces of such places as Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, and New York.
Fifth and finally, the federal investment in Los Angeles, moved by an unconscious planning wisdom, supplemented and stimulated an existing trend. There was no effort to reverse the path of popular migration or to go against the locational trends of the economy as might have been the case in such places as Appalachia or East St. Louis, Illinois. It is obvious that to roll with the economy, to relieve temporary distress, and to help people to move is a prerequisite for national urban programs.
What the federal effort in Los Angeles lacked was self-conscious dedication. The United States has the tools to plan its regional and national urban growth through the twin job-awarding devices of the giant corporation and the federal budget. Since World War II the magnitude of the corporate and federal effort has in large measure determined the national location of jobs;[56] it has designated the industries and places where jobs would be plentiful and where they would be sparse. The depressed condition of the core of New York City is a casualty of the federal and corporate concentration on war just as surely as the prosperity of Los Angeles is its hero. If we are to mitigate the appalling human waste and suffering of our cities, both institutions must be made
to act as self-conscious agents of urban reordering. The federal government must follow European examples by adopting a carefully considered, politically viable policy for urban growth so that the modernization of our cities and our economy can go forward more humanely; the corporations must be socialized to the point at which they can be held accountable for the public consequences of their behavior. Like the legitimate demands for decent work, comfortable housing, and an open inclusive society, the promise of today's economy and its cities will not be realized unless the American public demands that government and business serve the goals of a humane society.
