FBI Warns Sequestration Will Hamper All Their Hard-Hitting Wall Street Investigations
Tue, 05 Mar 2013 18:05:02 +0000

WASHINGTON -- More than four years after the financial crisis, not a single Wall Street executive has been jailed for playing a role in the creation of the toxic financial products that fueled the real-estate bubble, which were in some cases designed simply to fail. That track record may make it difficult for the Department of Justice to earn the sympathy of the public as it warns that spending cuts will hamper its ability to investigate Wall Street fraud.

A best of three HD 6950 battle royal
Subject: Graphics Cards | October 26, 2011 - 05:36 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: hd 6950, amd, gigabyte, msi, xfx, factory overclocked
Heading to The Tech Report will bring you to a round up of HD6950's including Gigabyte's GV-R695OC-1GD, the MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III 1G/OC and the XFX HD-695X-ZDDC. The GPU clocks range from 830MHz to 870MHz and RAM ranging from the stock 1250MHz to 1350MHz, with the MSI and XFX offering their own overclocking tools and Gigabyte relying on the Catalyst Control Center for further overclocking. MSI's offering came out looking very good, with the best performance and the best power efficiency and thanks to a mail in rebate it picks up the best ratings in the round up. It is a close race though with the cards performing very similarly, as you can see in the review.

Bulldozing through Linux benchmarks
Subject: General Tech | October 26, 2011 - 12:15 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: amd, bulldozer, FX 8150, linux
With the lacklustre performance we saw from AMD's new Bulldozer CPUs on Windows except in seriously multi-threaded applications; it is with a hopeful heart that Phoronix tests the performance of the FX-8150 under Ubuntu 11.04. There are a lot of benchmarks to go through, from general performance to specific AMD-centric tests to those focusing specifically on multi-threaded performance and even a look at the bundled watercooler. Read through the benchmarks they've run themselves as well as user submitted test and then realize that this is only the first of a series of articles they are working on ... so for now they hold judgment on AMD's newest product.
"Two weeks ago AMD introduced the Bulldozer FX-Series CPUs to much excitement, although many were letdown by the initial results, and it was months after showing the first Linux benchmarks of an AMD Dual-Interlagos pre-production system. In the days that followed I delivered some initial AMD FX-4100 Linux benchmarks when securing remote access to a low-end Bulldozer system running Ubuntu 11.04 (and there were also some Linux benchmarks from independent Phoronix readers), but then last week a Bulldozer kit arrived from AMD. The centerpiece of this kit is an eight-core AMD FX-8150 CPU, which is now being used to conduct a plethora of AMD Bulldozer benchmarks on Linux."

A milquetoast reception to the next generation of GPUs
Subject: General Tech | October 26, 2011 - 11:56 AM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: gpu, amd, nvidia, southern islands, kepler, TSMC, 28nm
While most enthusiasts are living up to the name as far as the build up to the coming GPU refreshes from both AMD and NVIDIA is concerned, the manufacturers are quite the opposite. There are several probable reasons for this attitude, not least of which are the number of HD 6570s and GTS 450s that are still in their stock. Remember those cards from back in the spring of this year, which were the high end of a huge range of GPUs from both companies spanning $20 to either side of $100? Think that with the current generation of Llano and SandyBridge that any knowledgeable person is going to purchase one, let alone when you consider how close the release of next generation of APUs is? The two major players in the discrete GPU market not only updated the top end of their cards quickly over the past several quarters there was a widening of the market which saw current generation cards available from ~$75 to ~$750 with some segments separated by as little as $10. That translates to huge inventories at the manufacturer level which they then have to convince resellers and retailers to purchase for stock to sell to the consumer and many of those cards are still sitting there collecting dust. No wonder these same companies are leery of purchasing more stock before finding a way to recover some profit from the stock they have now.
To make things even worse there exist doubts about the 28nm process from TSMC, which DigiTimes discusses here. While AMD is still claiming delivery of HD7000 family cards before the coming year, the troubles that NVIDIA seems to be having with the same process concerns those who need to be able to buy large volumes of chips in order to turn a profit selling graphics cards. Even worse is the realization that the first cards NVIDIA will be releasing are simply a die shrink, without architectural changes. When two companies go to the same source for the same thing and one reports getting apple cider and the other apple vinegar, you really have to start to wonder what is really going on.
"While Nvidia and AMD are poised to use Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's (TSMC's) 28nm technology to produce the GPUs Kepler and Southern Islands respectively, most Taiwan-based graphics card makers hold a conservative attitude about the new GPUs with some makers cautiously watching the market status before making any further decisions, according to industry sources.
Compared to the makers' eagerness for the previous-generation GPUs, graphics card makers are rather conservative about the upcoming 28nm chips due to concerns such as TSMC's weak 40nm process yield rate issues may re-occur in its 28nm process and weakening demand for graphics cards and lower-than-expected gross margins."

Don't worry AMD fans, there's an ultrabook clone coming soon
Subject: General Tech | October 24, 2011 - 06:43 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: amd, ultrabook, Deccan, Kerala
Not to be deterred by the issues that Intel has run into trying to out Macbook Apple, AMD will also be jumping on a notebook similar to the Ultrabook. The successors to Brazos will be competing against Ivy Bridge and Haswell, so hopefully the statement that DigiTimes makes about vastly improved performance and power usage reduction are true. AMD is also lookign to refresh the chips they've designed for use in tablets which you should be able to get your hands on before the end of the year, if GLOBALFOUNDRIES can produce enough chips.
"AMD has made plans for ultrabook-like products for the next two years – in 2012, AMD will launch the Deccan platform to replace Brazos and will launch Kerala in 2013.
Since AMD's share in the global CPU market has been around 20% in recent years while the company has about 10% share in the global notebook CPU market, AMD is preparing plans for ultra-thin notebooks hoping to raise its share in the notebook CPU market.
In June 2012, AMD is set to launch Deccan, featuring Krishna and Wichita-based APUs and will upgrade to Kerala featuring Kabini-based APUs. With the upgrades, the overall performance and power consumption of AMD's platforms are expected to see an extraordinary improvement, allowing AMD to compete against Intel's Ivy Bridge platform in 2012 and Haswell platform in 2013.
For the traditional notebook market, AMD has already launched its Llano-based Sabine platform to replace Danube, but due to Globalfoundries' weak 32nm yield rates and production issues, supplies of Llano APUs has been limited, which should impact AMD's future plans for the notebook market. However, within AMD's latest plans, the company is set to launch the Comal platform, featuring Trinity-based APUs, for 2012 and will upgrade to the Indus platform in 2013 using Kaveri-based APUs.
As for the tablet PC market, AMD will push the Brazos platform with Windows operating system to target the enterprise market in 2011. In the second quarter of 2012, AMD will launch the Brazos T platform that features Hondo APUs and in 2013 will release the Samara platform, which features a similar architecture as its ultra-thin platform."

Intel Reports Q3 2011 Earnings
Subject: Editorial | October 19, 2011 - 05:29 PM | Josh Walrath
Tagged: sandy bridge, Q3 2011, Intel, earnings, bulldozer, atom, amd
This should come as a shock to no one. Intel made a lot of money this past quarter. We again have seen new records in both gross revenue and net income. GAAP revenue for the quarter came in at an astounding $14.2 billion. Essentially that is the net revenue for AMD during a three year span. Net income is again impressive at $3.5 billion. In AMD terms that would be gross revenue for three quarters. Truly there is a tremendous disparity between the two companies who are very bitter rivals. It is no wonder AMD is starting to really fall behind.
All of the internal groups, except for one, have shown tremendous growth over the past year. Notebooks have really lead the charge as of late, but both desktop and server markets have shown very favorable growth for the company. Even the McAfee and Intel Communications divisions provided upwards of $1 billion to the bottom line. The only area that Intel is lagging in is the Atom line.
When we look at the product offerings of Intel in server, desktop, and notebook markets we see they have a sizeable advantage in both process technology and performance per watt. Intel has been shipping 32 nm chips for well over a year and a half. On the desktop this has translated to modestly priced processors that have a much smaller die size yet comparable (and even superior) performance to the AMD products which are much larger in size and more expensive to produce. On the server side we really have not seen AMD make any inroads since Intel took over that market in a big way once they released the QPI based designs which took away AMD's last architectural advantages; HyperTransport and integrated memory controllers.

The tragic comedy that is Bulldozer
Subject: General Tech | October 18, 2011 - 12:07 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: bulldozer, amd
It is hard to know exactly what to say about Bulldozer. It is not a complete fail for in multithreaded applications it sits in between the performance of the i5-2500 and i7-2600, which it was intended to. Power consumption at idle has been improved but not at load which hurts, but not as much as the poor single threaded performance which is far worse than we had hoped. SemiAccurate traced the long 5+ year history of the Bulldozer to see where AMD went astray from the dream that was. The length of the story is certainly a part of it, 5 years is too long for silicon to languish especially when part of the delay was due to problems with the 45nm process. Read on to hear about the struggles AMD underwent to get this chip to market as well as what corners were cut, or at least rounded, to get the chip on shelves.
"The story of Bulldozer and why it does what it does, both good and bad, can be summed up as death by 1000 cuts. There isn't really any high point to the architecture, nor are there any really low points. To make matters worse, there isn't any obvious smoking gun as to why things ended up so, well, meh. What you can get now, what you should have been able to get, and what you will be able to get from this new architecture is a long and complex story. Lets get started."

AMD May Release 28nm 7000 HD Series GPU In December
Subject: Graphics Cards | October 15, 2011 - 12:34 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: amd, gpu, graphics card, southern islands, HD 7000
Tom's Hardware reports that a source within AMD has indicated that the company may release their upcoming Southern Islands GPU earlier than expected. Previous rumors suggested that AMD would have their performance desktop graphics cards out in the first quarter of 2012 with the lower clocked and mobile processors coming out a bit sooner than that.
If this new information turns out to be true, we may be seeing the high performance desktop graphics cards released in limited quantities of 7000 to 10,000 units in December with a full rollout of the company's 28nm graphics card lineup in the months following. Specifically, the first cards may be available as soon as December 6th, 2011. It remains to be seen whether or not the lower power cards will still be released before the high performance desktop cards.
Personally, I'm interested to see how AMD's approach with their Southern Islands GPU will match up against Nvidia's current and future (more) general purpose computing design. Are you excited for Southern Islands?

Product description
Golf fans will not forget the 39th Ryder Cup in a hurry. Staged at the Medinah Country Club just outside of Chicago, the 2012 event has already gone down as the most remarkable competition in its 85-year history. The American team had home advantage, and a golf course unapologetically set up to suit its own players. Supported by tens of thousands of loud and proud fans, the USA's star-studded line-up dominated the first two days and ended the Saturday with a seemingly unassailable 10-6 advantage. No away team had ever won the Ryder Cup from such an unpromising position. Sunday was singles day, traditionally the forte of American teams. The situation looked bleak, especially when European team member and number 1 golfer in the world, Rory McIlroy, very nearly missed his tee-off time. Yet slowly but surely, the European team - who had top-loaded their line-up in one last throw of the dice - started to turn the scoreboard blue. With inspirational captain Jose Maria Olazabal stiring European blood with thoughts of the late Ryder Cup magician Seve Ballesteros (whose silhouette was emblazoned on the players' sweaters and bags), the tide turned and the previously dominant American players started to crumble in the face of the onslaught. Suddenly European players were holing miraculous putts to win holes out of the blue. Something very special was happening. When German Martin Kaymer sank his putt on the eighteenth green to clinch the point that retained the Ryder Cup, the most astonishing comeback in the event's long and distinuished history was complete. Miracle at Medinah is the compelling narrative of those amazing three days in Illinois, a fitting chronicle of an unbelievable sporting story.

Sept. 15 (Bloomberg) -- The Canadian currency reached a one-week high versus the greenback after the European Central Bank said it will lend euro-area banks U.S. dollars, spurring bets that the region's debt crisis may be contained.
The euro gained against the Canadian currency for a second day and rose versus most major peers after the ECB said it will coordinate with the Federal Reserve and other central banks to ensure euro-region banks have enough of the U.S. currency through the end of the year. Canada's government bonds fell, pushing 10-year yields up the most in a month.
"Euro-zone banks have been an ongoing concern for the market, so the fact that there is coordination between the ECB and the Fed to lend dollars to the banks provides some solace to the market," said Shane Enright, technical currencies analyst at Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce's CIBC World Markets unit in Toronto. "There does seem to be a willingness to do what it takes."
The Canadian currency, nicknamed the loonie for the image of the aquatic bird on the C$1 coin, appreciated 0.6 percent to 98.36 cents per U.S. dollar at 5 p.m. in Toronto, compared with 98.93 cents yesterday. It touched 98.31 cents, the strongest level since Sept. 8. One Canadian dollar buys $1.0167.
Europe's 17-nation currency traded at C$1.3650, up 0.3 percent, after rising earlier as much as 0.8 percent to C$1.3715, the highest level since Sept. 9.
Trading in Range
"Markets are hesitant," Camilla Sutton, chief currency strategist at Bank of Nova Scotia's Scotia Capital unit in Toronto, said in a telephone interview. "The Canadian dollar is just trading within its broader range and can't really seem to break out on either side."
The loonie has traded since Sept. 5 against the U.S. currency between 98.30 cents and C$1.0027, the weakest level since January.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index climbed 1.7 percent, while Canada's benchmark S&P/TSX Composite Index advanced 1.1 percent. Crude oil, Canada's biggest export, gained. October futures rose as much as 1.4 percent to $90.15 a barrel in New York before trading at $88.40, up 0.6 percent.
Government bonds dropped, sending yields on Canada's benchmark 10-year notes as much as 11 basis points higher, or 0.11 percentage point, to 2.31 percent. It was the biggest intraday jump since Aug. 11. The price of the 3.25 percent notes due in June 2021 fell 87 cents to C$108.28.
Factory Sales Rise
The loonie also gained versus the U.S. dollar after Statistics Canada data showed manufacturing sales rose in July more than forecast as energy and metal production rebounded after plant shutdowns. Sales increased 2.7 percent on a seasonally adjusted basis to C$46.7 billion ($47.3 billion), the report showed. A Bloomberg News survey of 21 economists projected a 1.4 percent gain.
"Finally, the manufacturing sector catches a break," Mazen Issa, Canada macro strategist at Toronto-Dominion Bank's TD Securities unit, said in a note to clients. The report "diminishes the risk of a recession in Canada and bodes well for the industry level real gross domestic product figure" for July and the third quarter, he said.
Canada will have modest growth in the second half of the year after output shrank from April to June, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said yesterday.
Volatility in the Canadian dollar versus its U.S. counterpart fell. One-month implied volatility on the currency pair dropped to 10.4 percent today, from 11.6 percent on Sept. 12, which was the highest level since Aug. 15. Implied volatility, which traders quote and use to set option prices, signals the expected pace of swings in the underlying currency.
The loonie advanced 1.1 percent over the past week against nine other developed-nation currencies tracked by Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Currency Indexes. The U.S. dollar declined 0.4 percent, while the Australian dollar fell 1.9 percent. The U.S. is Canada's biggest trade partner, and Australia, like Canada, is an exporter of raw materials.

Mayor Bob Filner's inaugural remarks
That means we're going to complete the update of neighborhood Community Plans, and as part of that process we are going to ask neighborhoods to prioritize their public facilities needs and help us develop a program for financing those improvements.
Along the way, we will protect urban open spaces, reduce storm water pollution, and make our neighborhoods more bicycle and pedestrian-friendly.
But quality of life is about more than clean, safe, well-maintained neighborhoods to live in.
It's also about having a good-paying job that enables you to support your family.
We are going to work with local businesses to streamline the City's regulatory process so entrepreneurs who want to create good-paying jobs can count on a timely and predictable response and fixed costs from the City.
We're going to encourage partnerships between our businesses and our public schools to prepare young people for good jobs and a bright future.
We're going to build on the success of innovators like Qualcomm and help grow the emerging green and blue technology sectors – including a major solar initiative for public buildings.
And we're going to support expansion of maritime operations at the Port, with the overall goal of creating 50,000 new, good-paying jobs in our City.
We are going to tap into the vitality and potential of our neighbors to the south – in part through a new Border Affairs Office in Tijuana – to strengthen our cross-border ties.
And in that regard, let me take a moment to recognize the delegation of leaders from Baja California and Baja California Sur who honor us with their presence, led by the Consul General of Mexico Remedios Gomez Arnau.
I am looking forward to working closely with the mayor of our Sister City, Mayor Carlos Bustamante Anchondo, and the other Mexican officials here today.
And special congratulations to you, and to all their fans in this bi-national region, as we celebrate the victory of the Xolos soccer club in yesterday's championship.
As I said, a healthy economy is an important part of our quality of life. So, we are going to seize every opportunity to grow our regional economy.
We are going to expand our Convention Center to strengthen our visitor industry…
We are going to support our military bases and defense industries in the face of threatened federal cutbacks…
We are going to make sure the Chargers stay in San Diego.
And we are going to have a wonderful celebration of our crown jewel – Balboa Park's 100th anniversary.
But at the end of the day, I want my tenure as Mayor judged not just on what we accomplish, but also on how the decisions are made.
You can't build trust and support for City government if just a few people are making decisions for all the rest of us.
I want a City government where everyone has a seat at the decision-making table;
Where the concerns of a Filipino family in Mira Mesa or a single-mom in San Ysidro carry just as much weight at City Hall as traditional insiders.

Inappropriately scored video clips have been around the Internet, and Something Awful specifically, for, well, at least ten years. However, they've never been showcased in Comedy Goldmine, according to my exhaustive research (pressing Ctrl+F on the index page for a couple minutes). So here we have new variations on the theme, plus videos some still-active SA Forum Goons made four to six years ago that most people have never seen. One of the great aspects of the older YouTubes is that commenters become furious about the tarnishing of "sacred" scenes. Will people still get so worked up now that the theme is well-established? Probably, given that people are still whining about the first video listed here. (Why would you "degrade" and "insault" my fantasy horse scene!)

Calvin Harris
Alexi Duggins gives the lowdown on the UK's biggest dance musician Discuss this article
He's a big fan of UK Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson.
'I love Clarkson, I really do. I like how he's opinionated and often wrong about things, but won't accept it. I see a lot of myself in him, especially the fact that he's ungainly and tall.'
He's hoping to be found guilty of murdering his wife…
'In the US there's a guy called Calvin Harris who's been on trial for the past two-and-a-half years for murdering his wife – it's been re-trialled three times. He went down two months ago, and I breathed a sigh of relief. Then one of the jurors goes, "Oh, I met him a week ago and he was a nice guy. Sorry, we're going to have to retrial again." I was raging.'
He might have been a footballer if he wasn't cursed with the wrong hair.
'I was quite into football – I wanted to be like [former Liverpool and Real Madrid player] Steve McManaman, on the left wing, with curly hair. But I never had curly hair, so I got into music. If I'd had curly hair, things would've been different.'
He wants to introduce a fast lane for pedestrians on Oxford Street, London's busy shopping hub.
'Oxford Street is the worst street in the world. A fast lane would change lives. It'd make a lot of people less angry. I get so angry walking down Oxford Street – anger that I didn't even know existed just pours right out of me.'
One of the best days of his life was reading that he was dating Kylie…
'It was a full page in [tabloid rag] News Of The World. It's the only thing that I've ever cut out of a newspaper and kept.'
…but he didn't deal with it very well.
'I got frightened and denied it quickly. If I'd been sensible I'd have just left the 'are-they-aren't-they' rumours hanging, at least until my single had come out. But I panicked and ruined everything.'
He loves E. Numbers, that is...
'I'm a big fan of E numbers and junk food. It's not supposed to be healthy. They're taking all the bad stuff out of Wotsits and Pot Noodles and turning them into these "healthy snacks". No! No one on a healthy diet is going to go, "Well, now it's time for my packet of crisps."'
… but he's worried about Pringles.
'Because they're so addictive. I'm a control freak, so I don't like to think that I'm not in control of my movements.'
He doesn't want to meet his heroes
'I'm a massive fan of [British absurdist comedian] Harry Hill, but I'd be quite trepidacious to meet him because I'd make a fool of myself. I wouldn't ever approach him because it'd end in tears. My tears.'
Calvin Harris's latest, 'Ready For The Weekend', is available in stores.

Constantine. Movie or TV show?
Reports are coming out that Constantine, the NBC show, won't have a season 1 beyond 13 episodes, but MIGHT get renewed for season 2.
I love the Hellblazer comic. I love Constantine the movie. The TV show, however, I find more than a bit hokey

"We are asking for an academic president, we are asking for someone that is qualified," said Sydney Norris, one of the FSU students who participated in the demonstration.
Thrasher has no experience as a senior administrator at an institution of higher education. He is a lawyer who went to serve as speaker of the Florida House of Representatives and later a member of the Florida Senate.
The BOG unanimously voted to confirm Thrasher's appointment at its Wednesday meeting at Florida Atlantic University. It also confirmed Kent Fuchs to serve as the president of the University of Florida.
Back during this year's legislative session, Thrasher led an unsuccessful effort to split the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and give FSU $13M to begin the process of creating a separate college. He declined to offer FAMU the $5M in new recurring dollars that would be necessary to replace all of the FSU faculty who would leave or the $100M that would be required to build a new engineering school building on FAMU's main campus.

Hi Jack,
It appears that, Yes! We are talking about the same family. My mother-in-law, Edie, just emailed me and said that she had met you in Kitchener, Ont. You were a musician and had a band. It's funny that she never mentioned the other children that you had listed (ie: you Mother). Perhaps it just slipped her mind.
At any rate, I'd love to find out what you've dug up on the family! I have very little on them. Here's what I have and how I fit in the picture:

The popular local web series is back with even more bad driving and parking in the Permian Basin!
While the cold and ice continues today across the Permian Basin, we want to let you know that our Night at the North Pole event is moving forward on Saturday.
The Midland College / Midland Chamber of Commerce's Holiday Event beginning at 5:30 this evening!
The Midland Police Department and the FBI are searching for a woman who robbed the Community National Bank in the 3300 block of N. Midkiff in Midland this afternoon.
Peggy Harris of Vernon, Texas couldn't get a straight answer as to what happened to her husband in WWII, until she finally got the unbelievable answer decades later.
Customers accused of stiffing a waitress on a tip because she is gay, and leaving a hateful message on the receipt instead, are saying that they did leave a tip and wrote no such note.
We hope your week is going well and you're staying warm today!
A power outage following the winter storm this weekend has knocked out power to our station.
Earlier this week I met with Alexa Williams to talk about my video series, 'Braking Bad'. She loved the concept, presented it to the big-wigs at NewsWest 9 and now it has turned into a weekly feature!

Marianne Williamson doesn't like most articles about her. She seems to remember every slight, every snarky subhead that called her a shaman, a prophet, an ex–lounge singer.
"The press creates a caricature," she says.
Take, for example, the most recent headline from The New York Times: "Marianne Williamson, New-Age Guru, Seeks Congressional Seat."
" 'New Age guru,' " Williamson scoffs. "First of all, what is the suggestion here, that the 'old age' is working?"
Williamson is sitting on a wooden bench beside her press person, Ileana Wachtel, inside a vegan/organic/raw food café in Santa Monica called Rawvolution. "I've never worn a velvet scarf in my life. You label somebody 'New Age,' and that's automatic mockery: 'She cannot possibly be a serious thinker.' "
What would she rather be called?
"Author ..." she says, searching for something with more oomph.
Wachtel offers, "Author, lecturer, thought leader — how about thought leader?"
"That's what that world calls it," Williamson says. "I wouldn't call myself that. In the East, the guru never calls himself a guru."
She sips from her room-temperature carrot juice. On the sound system, Donovan is singing: "Wear your love like heaven. Wear your love like heaven."
" 'Spiritual teacher' feels a little grandiose," Williamson ventures. "What do you call Alan Watts? What do you call Ram Dass? What do you call Wayne Dyer? If it's a man, there's not even a question."
Wachtel breaks in: "What do you call Deepak Chopra?"
"Well, he's a doctor," Williamson says. "To me, when I think of New Age, I think of crystals and rainbows and platitudes. A Course in Miracles — what do you see in there that's silly? That's a very serious book for very serious thinkers."
It has been nearly three months since Williamson — best-selling author, spiritual teacher, founder of Project Angel Food, international lecturer — announced her candidacy at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills, an art deco movie palace that once served as home to her spiritual lectures. Alanis Morissette performed at the event.
The announcement was met with guffaws from political insiders — a challenge to Henry Waxman? From the left?
"She has some very unusual beliefs about the world, a cult following, but she's not a credible candidate," says Eric Bauman, chairman of the Los Angeles County Democratic Party. "She's done a lot of work helping people heal, but that's not preparation to be in Congress."
Then again, with Congress' approval rating hovering at about 10 percent, the feeling toward career politicians is hostile.
"No question about it, Waxman is one of the most powerful and influential Democrats in Washington," says Dan Schnur, director of the Jesse M. Unruh Institute of Politics at USC. "But in this type of political environment, that both helps and hurts."
Schnur, who is preparing his own unlikely run for California secretary of state as an independent, says the battle for California's 33rd District congressional seat may throw a few curveballs. Too much is unknown about Williamson, her campaign style, how hard she'll work, how hard her rabid fan base (she has 200,000 Twitter followers; Waxman has 3,100) will push, how much money she'll raise, how much of her own money she'll put in.
"A campaign against Williamson," Schnur says, "is a much less straightforward one than [Waxman] had last year."
California Congressional District 33 contains one of the wealthiest demographics in the nation, hugging the Pacific Ocean from Point Dume to Rancho Palos Verdes, with a small, east-reaching finger that includes Beverly Hills and ends at tony Marlborough School in Hancock Park.
Waxman, a congressman since 1975, couldn't be less concerned with Williamson. The candidate who really keeps him up at night is independent Bill Bloomfield, a multimillionaire who came within eight points of unseating Waxman in 2012, thanks to spending $7.5 million of his own money — more than any other congressional candidate that year.
Waxman is aching to know if Bloomfield will run again. Bloomfield says he hasn't decided.
As for Marianne Williamson? "If she ended up in a runoff against me, which is not easy to imagine, but it could happen," Waxman says, carefully playing out the scenario at his Miracle Mile district office, "it would be like two Democrats, she more to my left. I don't think she would win."
A debate between the two would be a fascinatingly asymmetrical encounter, akin to one speaker reading Shakespeare and another reading an interdepartmental memo from a box factory.
Even setting aside obvious stylistic differences, their visions of liberalism couldn't be more different — she the utopian, reaching for the moon and the stars; he the coldly effective pragmatist with a résumé that could drown a man in ink.
Williamson had toyed with the idea of making a symbolic presidential run. "But I don't think this is a time for symbolic gestures," she says. "I think running for Congress is scale."

Hello and happy Autumn! It's been a while, but I'm back and have a cake to share. I get very excited when autumn approaches. So many endings and beginnings. For one, I start baking again! My friend Cheryl made this cake, brought it to work and said she had a "Jewish Apple Cake" for us to enjoy. Jewish Apple Cake?!! I know that cake very well and we proceeded to talk about the name: "you know it as Jewish Apple Cake too? Why is it Jewish?", the ingredients: "yep, apples, oil, orange juice, etc." and how much we love it. Continue reading
Seasonal Salute: Cauliflower
Two recipes for you to enjoy!
Our garden has taught me the beauty and value of imperfection. Just look at the above photo: all 3 were planted at the same time and next to each other in the same garden.
Speaking of imperfection, there's always a lot to do and not enough hours in the day, so sometimes I just don't do it. IT=chores. Usually. Enough said. More hours in the day=fun and relaxation and just more of being well, me. I wish that for you too. What makes you, you? Where can you breathe and create more balance which=more time and space for well, YOU! Remember, we're striving for imperfection.
Seasonal Salute: Rainbow Chard
Two New Recipes for You to Enjoy!
Gardening is just the most amazing thing. I'm always in awe watching what comes up out of the dirt after there was nothing weeks ago. We planted rainbow chard again this year – I love it. It's inspired me to highlight seasonal selections from my garden and local farm stands this summer. Does anyone belong to a CSA share (Community Supported Agriculture)? Having your own garden can be a bit like that: I have this box (or garden in my case) of produce, now what do I do? Well, we ate a LOT of salads last week! As I've said before…the garden/nature doesn't wait. That's also the beauty of a garden or CSA: you have to deal with your bounty. It inspired me to think about and research different ways to enjoy eating our rainbow chard. Last year was the first time we grew it and ate it! Continue reading
A Yogi and Her Guacamole: Guest Post with Sam
Thanks to Sam, I am no longer indifferent to guacamole. In fact, I can now say I love it. To be more specific, I love Sam's recipe. I never realized (never really thought about it either) how personal guacamole is. I want LOTS of fresh cilantro, but know you either love or hate cilantro; there's no middle ground. At least that's been my experience and if certain friends are coming over and there's cilantro involved, I have to stop and think, "hmmmm are they lovers or haters"? It's not worth losing friends over, but I admit to feeling a bit sorry for them. Salsa without cilantro? A Banh mi sandwich? A wrap without stems and leaves just snipped from the garden? Perish the thought. Continue reading
Rose Water Marshmallows
I admit it; I hibernated. I will avoid a rehash of the longest, hardest winter I remember ever in my life and get to the task at hand: blogging.
Rose Water Marshmallows are a tribute to surviving the above mentioned winter and an homage to the eager anticipation of Spring. The Spring rose of food coloring is peeking through the snow sprinkle of confectioner's sugar. Perfect. Spring has been peeking at us little by little even during a March 26th blast of snow.
I tasted them and immediately understood Confection as "a delicacy made with sweet ingredients." They are beautiful to look at and really unlike anything I've ever tasted. Yes, a marshmallow, but with that hint of rose flavor from the rose water they are unique and special…just like Spring. Continue reading
