I'm very against AA, but I love diversity. There goes that assumption.
I don't think AA and diversity need necessarily be connected at all, actually. In fact, I prefer that the ideas are kept separate altogether.
Addressing imbalances in the American workplace.You see, the reason I don't like the word "diversity" is because it is almost always taken in a limited context. People hear "diversity" and they think, "oh, that means they want more colored people on campus". Diversity for the sake of having more people of a certain type around is bogus. It shouldn't be a goal/end of affirmative action.In this sense, "diversity" is taken to mean that certain ethnic groups must be exposed to different ethnic groups. For what purpose? What is the benefit of having different people meet? Okay, I can think of one: you learn about others. However, for me, AA is about addressing larger social issues; for instance, non-white representation in the field of law. AA is about providing slight advantages to traditionally disadvantaged groups in order to equal the playing field. AA is about fixing the future by learning from the past and adjusting the present.You can't have "forcibly exposing people to new races/cultures" as a valid goal of affirmative action. In that case, HBCUs would be disbanded*. It's simply not a legitimate reason for AA to exist. When it comes to universities, I can only see two reasons for AA to exist:1. As a potential boost for those who are historically disadvantaged to be able to attend that institution. This is different from "diversity" in that the end goal is not to have a kaleidoscope of races on your campus, but rather to provide a method of access for those who would normally not be able to attend (because of sociohistorical reasons). 2. As a means to redress areas of economic or social concern in America's diverse communities. Back to my law example. Why do we need more black lawyers? Because it is likely that, if there are more black lawyers, there will be better access to legal advice in most black communities, and more black kids will want to grow up and be lawyers: lawyers breed more lawyers as role models often do. Access to legal support and poverty are major issues in many black communities -- there is a dearth of black lawyers, and a variety of socioeconomic factors conspire to keep many intelligent young black people out of university, especially at the graduate level. That's just one example. You can see how point 2 builds on point 1. Point 2, as far as I'm concerned, is the overriding goal of affirmative action. But for sections of point 2 to work, point 1 must occur. In a sense, we are trying to make America's workforce more "diverse". But it is not the notion of diversity itself that fuels affirmative action. It is, rather, a byproduct of affirmative action. If any of this doesn't make sense, please let me know. I'm really tired, so I may have left out bits and pieces. *said very tongue-in-cheek!!!
Your reasoning is good, it seems to see dual reasons for AA- one to bring urm lawyers into the profession and two to bring the profession to urm communities. Actually I see only the second of those as the goal of AA, having more urm lawyers is the means toward bringing the profession to urm commununities. You kind of say that, but it your reasoning became a little circular when it appeared that part of the goal of bringing the profession/institution to the urm communities was to create more urm lawyers "Because it is likely that, if there are more black lawyers, there will be better access to legal advice in most black communities, and more black kids will want to grow up and be lawyers: lawyers breed more lawyers as role models often do."To be its more a means ends relationship, the means is more urm lawyers, the goal to bring the institution to urm communities.

Children used paper plates, yarn, feathers and beads to make dream catchers decorated with words and phrases like "hope" and "I have a dream" to celebrate the memory of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday while their parents watched President Barack Obama's inauguration on a big-screen television.
To Terry Taylor, the dual celebration at the Reginald F. Lewis Museum was a full-circle moment.
"People seemed pretty excited; they cheered when Barack took the oath. They were clapping and stomping their feet," said Taylor, education programs coordinator at the museum. She said the gravity of the moment struck her as she read a story about King to a group of children.
"This is one of the end results of his dream," Taylor said.
Over the holiday weekend, more than 700 people visited the African-American history and culture museum for a series of events that culminated with the inaugural viewing and crafts and storytelling sessions.
One of the highlights was the opening reception for "Defining Moments: An Exhibition of Works" on Saturday. The exhibit features 40 watercolors by Pocomoke City native Bryan Collier from seven of his children's books, including renderings of King, Rosa Parks, Langston Hughes and John Lennon. The exhibit runs until May 26.
"It is my goal that you leave this exhibition with a passion to learn more about this country's great history," Collier said in a statement.
Taylor said she was excited to see families lined up outside the museum before it opened at 10 a.m. Monday. Despite the country's gains since King's lifetime, she said children can learn valuable lessons in recounting history, such as the Montgomery bus boycott.
"I talked about the everyday people who marched with him; he couldn't do it alone," Taylor said. "It was the average citizen who decided to march along with him. I think the kids got that."

Windows and Arch Dual Booting:
To start off, you will need to install Windows. The reason to start with windows, is because it will mess with the MBR (Master Boot Record) if it is installed after installing Arch. You then boot up the arch installer. You pretty much do a standard installation, but there are a few things to keep in mind:
1. You will have to use logical partitions for some of our partitions, because there can only be up to 4 primary ones.
2. Very Important, remember to note down your partitions numbers: "sda1, sda2... sda8". So note down which type of partitions belong to which partition number. For example:
sda1: Windows (30GB is enough for some games) sda2: /boot (100MB is plenty) sda3: / (about 10-16GB is good) sda4: swap (between 512MB and 1024MB) sda5: /home (use rest of hard drive)
It is important to note that there is a 1024 cylinder limit with some older BIOSs. This means that the BIOS cannot access things beyond the 1024th cylinder (about 8.5GB), so the /boot partition should be in the first 8.5GB (in space before Windows partition). GParted LiveCD or a partitioning tool in SystemRescueCd are useful for moving and resizing partitions to accommodate this.
3. When installing grub, you have to alter the config file that pops up (/boot/grub/menu.lst), and make sure to install grub to /boot (or /root if you did not create a separate partition for /boot). There should be about three lines at the end of the file that speak about chainloading to boot other OSs, these can most generally be simply uncommented if you follow above convention, this would place windows boot point at hd0,0 or sd0,0. Thus you would have something akin to this:
# Windows XP title Windows XP rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1
The parts of this entry break down as follows:
title Windows XP <<--Can be anything you like, it will just be what is displayed in the grub bootup screen
rootnoverify (hd0,0) <<--Remember the partition numbers we wrote down, here you write in the partition number of your windows partition. This sets the windows boot at root, even though GRUB cannot read it.
chainloader +1 <<-- What this does is call the Windows boot loader that is still in MBR in our case, since GRUB cannot boot Windows itself.
REMEMBER: The file is read from the top and down, so the system listed first, will be the one to auto boot, if no keys are pressed during the grub boot screen.
NOTE:GRUB uses a zero indexed system of numbering drives and partitions, which is a different convention than you may be used to seeing:
First disk, first partition = sda1 = hd0,0 First disk, second partition = sda2 = hd0,1 Second disk, first partition = sdb1 =hd1,0
Dual Booting from Multiple Hard Drives
To dual boot from two separate hard drives (e.g. one dedicated Linux drive and one dedicated Windows drive) and Windows is not on the first hard drive, the Windows boot loader must be "tricked" into thinking Windows is on the first hard drive. Do this by adding the following lines to your menu.lst config file:
map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0)
So the entry for Windows on second disk, first partition will look like this:
title Microsoft Windows XP Professional root (hd1,0) savedefault makeactive map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0) chainloader +1
More information on GRUB configuration can be found in the GRUB manual.
Other Layouts
1. Actually you could just use:
sda1 <-WinXP sda2 <-swap sda3 <-/ (Arch) sda4 <-/home (optional)
and not use an extended(logical) partition (as /boot will be in the /root portion as well).
2. LVM (Linux Volume Management) is also a possibility to use, it works fine with arch, you could simply create a single LVM partition and let it create the other partitions inside it. This allows a single partition to hold all your needed GNU/Linux stuff, also allows you to easily resize any of them if it becomes necessary.
Notes on /home
You may wish to not store you documents in this mountpoint, especially if you wish to share data between both Windows and Archlinux. Traditionally this was done in a FAT partition because writing to NTFS was still experimental. NTFS-3G now offers stable writing to NTFS partitions, so you can just leave this as another partition that will be shared by both Windows and arch. Another option would be to use some of the tools in Windows, such as fs-driver and use an ext3 or ext2 partition to store documents (fs-driver will mount ext3 partitions as ext2, so you will not be able to take advantage of journaling while in Windows).
Other Options
Another option is sort of the reverse of what is described at the beginning of this article where GRUB loads the Windows boot loader, which then loads Windows. Under this option, the Windows boot loader load GRUB, which then loads arch. For information on this method see http://www.geocities.com/epark/linux/grub-w2k-HOWTO.html. I do not believe there are any distinct advantages of this method over the previous one, you will still need a /boot partition, and this one is arguably more difficult to setup.

In a risky operation this weekend, Navy SEALs stormed a villa in a seaside Somalian town, searching for Ikrima, a top commander from al-Shabab, the Qaida offshoot responsible for an attack in a Kenyan mall that killed dozens of people just weeks ago. When the troops came under intense gunfire, they retreated, reportedly because their target was impossible to capture. Meanwhile, in Tripoli, Libya, special forces whisked away Abu Anas al-Libi, the Qaida operative wanted in connection with the 1998 bombings of American embassies in Tanzania and Kenya, to an unnamed location in U.S. custody for questioning.
The two raids this weekend, both with the unusual goal of trying to capture terrorists, may be a harbinger of a different style in Obama's war on terrorism, which has largely centered on deploying drones to kill targets away from conventional battlefields. "We are going to see more of this," says Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., a senior member of the House Intelligence Committee. The surgical operations reflect the Obama administration's "change in policy" to minimize civilian casualties when taking out extremists, Schiff says. It also reflects the White House's desire to move away from a counterterrorism strategy reliant on drones toward one more focused on capturing, interrogating, and prosecuting suspects — a strategy, Schiff says, that "makes use of our proven capability of bringing to justice people who have committed acts of terrorism."
Even Republicans are taking note. "I think it's encouraging that capture is back on the table," says Rep. Mac Thornberry, the Texan who chairs the House Armed Services subcommittee that oversees counterterrorism programs.
Despite the administration's insistence it prefers capturing suspects whenever feasible, the numbers tell a different story: Only a handful of accused militants have been brought to the U.S. for trial; by contrast, the CIA and military have reportedly killed roughly 3,000 people in Pakistan, Somalia, and Yemen. Obama has pressed on with the drone war despite criticisms that the strikes unintentionally kill civilians and fuel anti-Americanism — and that suspects are slain without due process, a chance to surrender under fire, or relinquishing intelligence through interrogations.
The twin raids are a sign that Obama is trying to change course, after strong hints from the president and his team that policy changes were coming. In May, Obama spoke out against the appeal of drone strikes — which he said presidents may be tempted to view as a terrorism "cure-all." After broadly interpreting executive authority to expand the scope of the covert drone war throughout his presidency, Obama in his second term is clearly trying to set a precedent for limiting presidential power on this front. "Beyond Afghanistan, we must define our effort not as a boundless 'global war on terror' but rather as a series of persistent, targeted efforts to dismantle specific networks of violent extremists that threaten America," Obama said at the National Defense University in May. So Obama formally inked the "playbook," a secret set of processes and standards dictating the rules of drone strikes.
In this, Obama is not just restraining himself but future presidents. "We needed to codify certain practices and procedures to constrain this president or any president that came after "¦ to try to further limit the use of certain kinetic tools, so they were only used as a last resort," says Tommy Vietor, former National Security Council spokesman, in a National Journal feature last week. Obama has also asked Congress to narrow — and ultimately repeal — the 12-year-old Authorization to Use Military Force, passed after the 9/11 attacks to target terrorists. The president has disagreed with the idea that the sweeping provision, which his team has used to justify taking out terrorists in far-flung places, encourages perpetual war and grants the White House too much power.
In this weekend's two raids, however, one's success and the other's failure highlight the political and tactical minefields the commander in chief will face by capturing more terrorists.
Libi's capture in the successful Libya operation raises sensitive questions about where the U.S. should hold and prosecute suspects in custody — thorny issues the Obama administration, intentionally or not, has largely managed to avoid since it has failed to apprehend suspected terrorists en masse. "Every time there's a capture and discussion of bringing somebody to trial, that reopens a big debate about whether we should be prosecuting terrorists here in the United States at all, or if we should be holding them abroad as military detainees … [and] where to hold them while deciding whether to bring them to trial," says national security law professor Matthew Waxman of Columbia University. Already, House Armed Services Chairman Buck McKeon said in a statement that Libi should be interrogated "thoroughly" instead of rushed to trial on an "arbitrary" timeline, because the suspect has "vast intelligence value."
Thornberry believes the Obama administration prefers to use lethal force rather than capture suspects because it does not want to backtrack on its goal of closing the Guantanamo Bay prison. The Republican promises a fight on Capitol Hill if the Obama administration "rushes" Libi through an interrogation and moves him into the criminal-justice system "to make a political point" — and more heated debate about detention if the Obama administration changes its counterterrorism strategy. "If they capture a lot more people, then how are they going to deal with that? My point is, maybe they need to rethink some of their past positions," Thornberry says. "Do I [expect] them to rethink their position on Guantanamo and put people back there? I doubt it, but I don't know of any better option."
And the Somalia capture attempt, in which troops came under fire and failed to take their target, highlights the higher costs when boots are on the ground. No U.S. forces were injured or killed in the Somalia battle — this time. Despite pockets of criticism about the drone policy, the strikes have remained popular within this country, and Americans are certain to be more upset if U.S. troops die trying to capture terrorists who could have been killed in remote-control combat. A botched raid could have also changed the administration's calculus about a counterterrorism strategy focused on capturing suspects. "Should either of these raids have gone badly, I think it would have caused the administration to rethink whether it can move strongly in this direction," Schiff says.

Hollywood stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon are still very much a couple, their representatives have confirmed.
The statement comes in the wake of reports to the contrary that emerged over the weekend.
A source close to the Oscar-winning actress told People that Reese and Jake had split, although no further details were given.
"It's not true," said reps Nanci Ryder - who works for Reese – and Carrie Byalick. "They are still together."
The couple, who are known for keeping their private life out of the public eye, were first romantically linked after starring in the 2007 film Rendition.
Speaking about her boyfriend last year, the mum-of-two said: "He's very supportive. Suffice to say I'm very happy in life and I'm very lucky to have a lot of really supportive people around me who care very much for me...."

The Number 88 Jersey
I just saw that Brandon Moore tweeted that he is now #89, switching from #88. "I am officially number 89 now...".
I didn't think much of it, but then I remembered the passing of Jim Mandich last night, another #88. I wonder if these means there will be something special done to honor Mandich's number. From other discussions I've seen on here, retirement of a number seems unlikely (unless it's 21, for obvious reasons or 2, again obvious). Perhaps a one year "temporary" retirement of the number?
This may just be a coincidence, but I was curious if anyone else has heard any speculation about this or if there is precedent for such a memorial.

Big decisions take data not gut instinct
Learn to trust what matters
Blog What's the best way to make important decisions? Hunches? Intuition? Magic 8 Ball? Or relying on data analysis to reveal the best choice?
It's kind of a stupid question; most anyone answering it seriously will say: "Yeah, of course you want to use data to figure out what to do, you dumbass."
While everyone says that using data to make decisions is the only way to manage, I'd submit that very few organizations actually do it. I mostly see firms relying on hunches and intuition, and then using data - if forced to, they often don't - to justify, adjust, and calibrate the course of action that they've already decided to pursue.
The problem is that humans have a number of innate cognitive traits that don't let us easily choose non-intuitive alternatives – even when our intuition is demonstrably wrong. A couple of Deloitte consultants wrote an interesting article that talks about this unfortunate fact of life in a conversational way, via real-world examples. They also discuss how data-led decision making pays off.
What I - and a bunch of smarter, more articulate, and more successful people - see happening is real, data-led decision making coming to enterprises large and small. This trend will impact on IT shops in that they will see rapidly increasing demand from the business side for more data, more compute capacity, and results delivered in near-real time.
When you look at the workloads and requirements, they look a lot like typical HPC stuff. To me, this means that the trend of HPC technology crossing over into the business world is going to accelerate even faster. While we (sadly) can't make ourselves smarter, maybe using vast amounts of data can stop us from doing so many outright stupid things.
It's something to hope for, at least. ®

Sarasota, Florida Foreclosure Statistics
I get a lot of homebuyer inquiries from my website and one common theme from all of them is their desire to 'find a great deal.' Regardless of price range, virtually every potential buyer that I communicate with mentions either 'foreclosure', 'short sale', or 'deal'.
I am sure most of you know what a foreclosure is but sometimes I run into people who don't know what short sale means. Essentially, a short sale occurs when the proceeds of a real estate sale are insufficient to cover the liens or financial obligations owed on the property.
For example, if a home is worth $500,000 and the homeowner has a $600,000 mortgage on the property and the owner cannot make up the difference then a short sale is required. For a sale to take place the mortgage holder would have to agree to take less than what is owed to them due to an economic or financial hardship on the part of the borrower.
This process can take months to accomplish. If you are looking to purchase a property in short sale make sure you have plenty of time and patience. If you need to move into a home quickly it might be best to exclude short sales from your list.
Below are some¬ÝSarasota foreclosures and short sale statistics: Continue reading this post

The necklaces in the Seal line from Pyrrha are cast from authentic 19th century wax seals. Every design has a symbolic meaning taken from family heraldry.
Every necklace comes with a card telling about the seal. For example: The necklace on the far left is The bee seal, it reads "A mon ami" - To my friend, in English. Bees symbolize wisdom and creative activity. The seal on the right is the Carpe Diem seal, it pictures a winged hourglass reading in Latin "Carpe Diem," meaning "Seize the Day" in English.
Pyrrha's heart lock necklace depicts a heart shaped padlock surrounded by the phrase "the key is within you" written in French.

The latest airline explosion plot has sparked a predictable overreaction by the much-beloved TSA, which once again demonstrates that it lacks a basic understanding of precision and recall.
Let's recap, shall we ? Suppose you're trying to find all elements of a subset S in a universe U, and return as an answer the set H.
Precision measures the quality of your answer; what fraction of the elements of H are indeed in S ? The higher the precision, the lower the false-positive rate.
Recall measures the efficacy of the procedure; what fraction of the elements of S did you actually find ? The higher the recall, the lower the false-negative rate.
As any statistician will tell you, false-positives and false-negatives are complementary; increase one, and the other decreases. Search engines need high precision, (they also need good ranking, but that's a different story).
The TSA is clearly going for high recall. Banning bottles of water will surely eliminate any future plans for liquid explosives that use water, but it also eliminates the many (how shall I say) *innocent* uses of water ?
p.s I don't mind the short term enforcement of stricer guidelines while law enforcement attempts to figure out what kinds of explosives were being designed. I just have no faith that the new draconian regulations will be relaxed any time soon, considering how long it took to allow us to carry nail clippers on board flights again.

I have always considered myself a Technic- or Modelteam-head, but lately I have wanted to get into minifig-scale building.
The Castle-theme is definately one of the themes that speaks most to my imagination, so my question is:
If I want to move into the Castle-theme, which sets should I get, considering both how good the sets are themselves, but also the availability at decent prices?
I already have the Blacksmiths shop, the reissued Guarded Inn and the 6066 Camouflaged Outpost.
Any advice?

Within a matter of weeks, Qualcomm, which had been valued at more than $100 billion in December 2016, had lost a quarter of its market capitalization, an outcome that Qualcomm executives say was Apple's intent all along. "Apple's game plan is to squeeze people until they finally say, 'OK, the pressure's too hard. I'll just take a deal,'" said Derek Aberle, then Qualcomm's president and the company's chief negotiator, in an interview in July. Apple, on the other hand, presents the dispute as a matter of fairness. "It's not that we can't pay," Sewell says. "It's that we shouldn't have to pay."
The case, which could go to trial in a San Diego federal court as early as next year, could have a profound impact on the mobile phone business. A Qualcomm win would hamper Apple's efforts to cut costs and preserve margins that have allowed it to capture most of the profits generated by smartphone makers worldwide. If Apple wins and succeeds in ending the Qualcomm tax, that could marginalize one of the most powerful American technology companies and upend the balance of power in the semiconductor industry.
I have zero sympathy for either of these two companies. I literally cannot find a single fournication to give.

Best Kids Parties: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
Name: Haeden (3)
Location: Jacksonville, FL
Mickey Mouse Clubhouse has been part of our daily existence for over a year now. A certain little man has requested an episode each night before bed for the better part of his second year.
Since we were also taking a trip to Disney (or "Mickey's House" as he called it) the month before, we knew that Mickey would make the perfect theme for his 3rd birthday party.
Etsy, Pinterest and even Google images were my go-to sites for gathering inspiration. While I had several major craft fails, I must say I was pretty pleased with the end result! Fun was had by all!
Thanks Hesper! Readers, find Hesper at Blended so Splendid.

WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obama commended the U.S. men's soccer team Wednesday for making their country proud in the World Cup tournament in Brazil, during an Oval Office phone call with two of the team's most celebrated players.
Obama called goalkeeper Tim Howard and team captain Clint Dempsey the day after the U.S. team came tantalizingly close to victory before being knocked out of the competition by Belgium. Praising Howard and Dempsey for their leadership and the team's performance, Obama said this year was the first time the U.S. team had the entire nation truly focused on the contest.
''You guys did us proud,'' Obama said in a video released by the White House. ''To see the way you guys captured the hearts and the imaginations of the whole country is unbelievable.''
He joked that Howard, whose 16 saves captivated soccer fans worldwide, will have to shave his beard before returning to the U.S. to evade the mobs enthralled by his performance. He invited the team to return to the White House soon and asked Howard and Dempsey to convey his congratulations to their coach and teammates.
''I know it's disappointing,'' Obama said of the 2-1 loss. ''But what you guys accomplished is really, really significant.''
Obama has been following the World Cup closely. He watched last week's U.S.-Germany match from Air Force One and chanted ''I believe!'' while watching the Belgium match Tuesday with White House aides.
Accolades for Howard have been pouring in from the highest level of government, including from Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, whose Wikipedia entry was temporarily changed as a gag to show Howard as the new Pentagon chief. Rear Adm. John Kirby, a Pentagon spokesman, said Hagel invited the entire U.S. team to visit the Pentagon.
''He told Howard that with some training, he could someday become the real secretary of defense,'' Kirby said.

Undocumented or Illegal: Media Outlets Battle Over Immigration Terms
The term has become almost as controversial as the issue.
As states such as Alabama and Arizona continue to pursue strict immigration laws and groups such as the ACLU – and even the Obama administration – try just as quickly to block them, the issue of what to call people who reside in the United States without proper residency papers has taken on greater significance…especially among major media outlets.
Activist Jose Antonio Vargas called out The New York Times and The Associated Press during a speech last week at the 2012 Online News Association Conference and Awards Banquet in San Francisco for using the term "illegal immigrant."
"The term dehumanizes and marginalizes the people it seeks to describe," said the former Washington Post reporter. "Think of it this way, in what other context do we call someone illegal?"
A Filipino immigrant, who in a New York Times magazine piece last year outed himself as an "undocumented immigrant," argued that being in the country without proper identification is not a criminal offense, but a civil one.
Though it's a civil offense, the term "illegal immigrant" still remains commonplace in many newsrooms.
Vargas' comments caught the attention of the Times' editors, who on Monday posted a response on the paper's website and spoke to the journalism think tank, The Poynter Institute.
Though the term is in the AP Stylebook because it reflects a legal reality, we believe there are alternatives. AP reporters understand that it's not the only way to refer to individuals in a host of different circumstances.
"Obviously we know this is a sensitive area, one that we continue to struggle with," wrote Phil Corbett, associate managing editor for standards at the Times. "But in referring in general terms to the issue of people living in the United States without legal papers, we do think the phrases "illegal immigrants" and "illegal immigration" are accurate, factual and as neutral as we can manage under the circumstances."
"Proposed alternatives like 'undocumented' seem really to be euphemisms – as though this were just a bureaucratic mix-up that can easily be remedied," Corbett added. "We avoid those euphemisms just as we avoid phrases that tend to cast a more pejorative light on immigrants."
The public editor at the Times, Margaret Sullivan, also acknowledged that she has been approached by Vargas about changing the term in the paper.
The Associated Press Stylebook says that the term "illegal immigrant" is used to describe "those who has entered the country illegally or who resides in a country in violation of civil or criminal law."
The stylebook, however, notes that acceptable variations of the term include living in the country without legal permission.
"Though the term is in the AP Stylebook because it reflects a legal reality, we believe there are alternatives. AP reporters understand that it's not the only way to refer to individuals in a host of different circumstances," Paul Colford, director of media relations for the Associated Press, said in an email.
The term "illegal immigrant" originated in 1939 as a slur by the British to describe Jews entering Palestine without authorization after fleeing Nazi Germany, according to Charles Garcia, the CEO of Garcia Trujillo.
A survey of 122,000 articles published between 2000 and 2010 on the issue of immigration conducted by University of Memphis journalism professor Thomas Hrach found that that 59 percent of the stories used the term "illegal immigrant," 29 percent used the words "illegal alien," and about eight percent used the term "undocumented immigrant."
A national Fox News Latino poll of likely Latino voters conducted under the direction of Latin Insights and released in March showed that almost half of respondents, or 46 percent, say the term "illegal immigrant" is offensive, while only a little over a third, or 35 percent, think the term is accurate. About 7 percent are neutral about the term.
"Calling people illegal or an illegal immigrant has become normalized even though it's a term that's inaccurate, it's dehumanizing and it's politically charged," said Mónica Novoa, coordinator of the Drop the I-Word public campaign. "It's anti-immigrant, anti-Latino language that's harmful."
Fox News Latino, along with other Latino-centered websites, choose to use the word undocumented immigrant.
"The word illegal is an accurate description for actions, but not individuals," former Fox News Latino Managing Editor Alberto Vourvoulias-Bush said earlier this year. "We don't use it to describe people who commit other crimes. We write about unlicensed drivers, for example, not illegal drivers."

Thiruvananthapuram: Minister of State for Human Resource Development Shashi Tharoor Sunday said he wants to contest the Lok Sabha election again.
"Having put in more than four years as an MP, I think I have been able to bring a difference and hence, if given a chance, I will contest again," Tharoor told reporters here.
In 2009, the former UN under secretary general contested from the Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha constituency and trounced Communist Party of India candidate Ramachandran Nair.
Tharoor was earlier made the minister of state for external affairs but following a controversy involving the Kochi IPL franchise, Tharoor quit the post in 2010.
"I resigned because I did not want any interruption in parliament. I know that many people did not like me as a politician because whatever I said or did turned out to be a controversy. But now I feel I have been able to change the lives of people here with my work as an MP," he said.
"I am the first MP in the country to come out with a progress card," said Tharoor who has more than one million followers on microblogging website Twitter.

CARSON, Calif. – Jack McBean underwent surgery on Tuesday to repair a fractured left clavicle suffered during the LA Galaxy's 2-0 victory over Real Salt Lake last Saturday and according to LA head coach Bruce Arena, the injury may sideline the 18-year-old forward till mid-summer.
The injury occurred in the 51st minute of LA's road win over RSL when McBean collided with RSL center back Nat Borchers. Prior to the injury, McBean had appeared in ten matches across all competitions while scoring two goals and tallying two assists.
Following training on Wednesday, Arena confirmed that McBean's surgery was a success.
"Everything was good. My understanding was that it was a clean break, they surgically repaired it and we're optimistic that he'll have a speedy recovery," Arena said.
As for a timeline for McBean's return, Arena told reporters that he may return sometime in July.
"I think it is six to eight weeks," said Arena. "I think they periodically check and see how the break is healing. Everyone is a little bit different, but that's something where we would think that he would be ready at July in some point.
The injury will almost certainly rule McBean out of contention for the U.S. U-20 roster for the U-20 World Cup in Turkey roster as the tournament will take place from June 21 to July 13.
Despite the severity of the injuries, Arena admitted that injuries "are part of the game" and he had no ill will towards Borchers for the foul that led to the injuries.
"I've never seen that kind of injury on contact from behind on a shoulder blade," said Arena. "I would have thought that you would have gotten a dislocation or a separation not a break like that so it was surprising. Borchers went in hard for the ball, so fair play."

Millions of bees swarm, close Del. highway ramp
The tractor-trailer fell on its side about 6:10 p.m. on a curve on a ramp from Route 896 to Interstate 95, said state police spokesman Sgt. Paul Shavack.
The rig, traveling from Florida to Maine, carried 460 crated hives, or an estimated 16 million to 20 million honeybees.
The driver and two passengers were able to get out of the vehicle, but were stung 50 to 100 times each, troopers said. They also suffered minor injuries in the crash and were taken to Christiana Hospital.
Shavack said there were reports of passers-by being stung.
State police have had an official honeybee swarm removal plan for 14 years and this is the first time they used it, Shavack said.
Shavack says three on-call bee handlers were sent to the scene and they are working with firefighters to spray water on the insects, the crates and the truck.
"There's no rounding them up," Shavack said of the bees. "The water will disperse and calm the bee activity."
He said he hopes once the bee situation is mitigated, troopers will be able to right the truck, move it and reopen the ramp to traffic.

CRESTVIEW � Seeing a Riverside Elementary School student harass a classmate is what spurred fifth-grader Carson Caldwell into action.
CRESTVIEW � Seeing a Riverside Elementary School student harass a classmate is what spurred fifth-grader Carson Caldwell into action.
�There was a child that was being pretty mercilessly harassed, for lack of a better word,� Assistant Principal Kelli Sanders said.
The bullied child had not reported the incidents to school staffers, who only learned of the problem when the student started having a high absentee rate.
�We hate that we don't always know, but kids don't want to be a snitch,� Sanders said.
Carson, on the other hand, witnessed it.
"There was bullying going on in the school," he said. "There's been physical contact. I've been told some harsh words."
And he decided to do something about it.
In mid-February, Carson approached the school administration and, with its guidance, formed an anti-bullying club.
Bullying methods
Bullying often occurs in physical education class, Carson said. One method includes the �slap box� game, in which the aggressor targets a student with a stitched "box" on the back of his or her shirt � an outline of the manufacturer's tag � and slaps the victim's back.
The "cheese touch" method, common in the lunchroom, involves ostracizing a classmate whom students declare has a form of cooties described in Jeff Kinney�s book "Diary of a Wimpy Kid.� Touching moldy cheese triggered the name in the book, which explains that students with the �cheese touch� are outcast until they touch someone else and spread the imaginary germ.
Okaloosa County Schools� Student Codes prohibit physical violence; sexual, religious or racial harassment; threatening; cyberbullying or cyberstalking; and other actions that compromise a student�s right to a �safe, secure and equitable environment.�
Punishment can range from positive behavioral interventions to suspension and expulsion, according to the disciplinary policy.
Combating bullying
To report bullying, Carson and his club placed a "Bully Box" in Riverside's media center.
"If you're shy or scared to tell somebody, you can (anonymously) put a form in the box," he said.
Club members have brainstormed other ways to combat bullies and draw attention to the issue.
In addition to preparing a skit for the school's "Morning Show" closed-circuit TV program, they plan to invite visitors to address the club.
With the assistance of his mother, Michele Caldwell, Carson designed recruiting posters for the club. Recently, he hanged some in the school hallways, and then checked the Bully Box for submissions.
When he saw the box was empty, he smiled.
"I hope we don't get any," Carson said. "I think it's beginning to get better. Kids are getting together in a group, thinking of ideas to prevent bullying.
�I hope we stop bullying."

Spot or Not: The Church
Irving, TX
I'm gonna give you one guess where this spot is…uh huh, Texas! And not only in Texas, but in the middle of the DFW area the gap mecca. The only bad thing about it is it hides in the shadow of some pretty important looking office buildings. The only time we can go here is on the weekends when every one is not at work, but that is why we have nicknamed it "the church." It's almost the holiest place you can go on a Sunday!
If your jumping down it, you have a very nice landing, which gets deeper the further out you go. If you're going up, it has a pretty good landing too — after you clear the rocks that are all over the top that is.
The drop it is super wide — like 50 ft — so you can jump it in different spots. It's probably 30 ft to clear up or down and its maybe 7ft high. I'll go ahead and tell you, I've never jumped it with out a little help. I made a sweet little ramp setup that I like to move around on it. Basically going up and down and any other way I can think that would be fun to hit. But don't let it be said that it isn't gnar cause one bad jump could definitely send you to the hospital — for a while!

The article itself is pretty well balanced (pun not intended) but the usual predictible anti cycling comments from the anonymous keyboard warriors drag it down. One interesting comment (if true - sounds a bit excessive) is that there are approx 800 cyclists crossing the Sydney Harbour Bridge every hour.
Ensuring safe passage for our Lycra warriors
by Steven Marshall
24 Jan 05:45am
Across Australia today a familiar push and shove is taking place as cyclists vie for space with the ever increasing numbers of cars on our roads. It is a pattern that is repeated throughout our towns and cities; a symptom of our car loving culture and sense of road entitlement from drivers and cyclists alike.
Drivers resent the packs of Lycra warriors when they take up entire lanes and invent their own road rules, and cyclists understandably fear cars which are often wielded like 100 tonnes of road clearing debris.
Neither party is blameless in this dangerous game of chicken, but it is up to state governments to appreciate the differing needs of commuters and adjust their infrastructure accordingly.
My home city of Adelaide last week played host to the Tour Down Under, a cycling Mecca which brought in the likes of Lance Armstrong and thousands of enthusiastic fans.
According to one keen bike rider who I have spoken to, there is no safer time to be riding on Adelaide roads as drivers accept that for two weeks bikes are legitimate modes of transport.
However, even as Mike Rann posed in his Lycra and sent flirty tweets to Lance Armstrong the reality of the situation is that for the rest of the year Adelaide is a dangerous place for South Australian bike riders.
Adelaide, with its wide streets and gentle gradients should be a bike rider's paradise; but it remains a city fraught with dangers. Speak to any cyclist and they will tell you a horror story of pot holes, aggressive bus drivers, bike lanes that end suddenly (if they exist at all) and a hostile driving culture which means riders are as likely to be met with a bottle to the head as they are to a friendly wave from drivers.
Premier Mike Rann needs to realise that bike riding is a year long event. Cyclists deserve to feel safe every time they take to the road, not just when celebrities are in town.
There is a natural friction which occurs between cyclists and drivers as they fight for space on busy main roads, which is why I propose the establishment of shared commuter zones named bicycle boulevards on smaller roads which run parallel to the main thoroughfares.
These bicycle boulevards would give riders and pedestrians enough space to travel safely while also slowing down and alerting motorists to the increased presence of cyclists. I believe cycle routes situated adjacent to main roads should be considered by state governments across Australia as a cost effective way of both protecting bike commuters and encouraging the uptake of cycling in our communities.
The entrenched grudge between those on two wheels and those on four is unlikely to subside easily, but by creating dedicated bike lanes on non-arterial roads we are relocating large numbers of cyclists off dangerous main roads, thus bypassing many of the problems.
This is a solution that I have looked at in my own seat of Norwood, which despite its wide roads, tree lined streets and close proximity to the city still has only a small amount of everyday commuter cyclists.
Safety fears remain the core reason that people don't use cycling as their premier mode of transport, and governments need to improve road infrastructure so that more people are comfortable taking to their bikes. It is all well and good to pay lip service to the effects of climate change, but real reductions in traffic can only be achieved if there are viable transport alternatives.
The sad reality of the situation is that cyclists are most at risk when riding to and from work in peak hour.
Tired, stressed drivers and rushed bike riders are not good bed-fellows, and it is along those major city roads that they are most likely to come to grief. It is for this reason that I believe governments have a responsibility to give cyclists other options by providing safe bike routes on non-arterial roads that still allow riders to arrive at work in a timely fashion.
This is an option that I have looked at in my own electorate, with the wide yet quiet Beulah Road providing me with an opportunity to create a safe bike highway which avoids the main traffic pressure points, taking pressure off daily commuters.
However, improved roads and infrastructure is only one part of the solution. In order to cut down on the damaging bitterness between cyclists and drivers governments need to provide education to both parties.
I doubt that any driver could fail to empathise with cyclists on busy roads if they themselves had experienced being approached from behind by screeching tyres and noisy horns with only a foam helmet for protection. It would also be worthwhile if young learner drivers were taught about how to handle cyclists when in their cars, how best to overtake large groups of riders, and about responsible road etiquette.
By the same token, many cyclists also need to be educated on how to ride safely and respectfully; as it is the traffic light jumpers and footpath weavers that tarnish all cyclists' reputation. You wouldn't expect a 16 year old to get behind the wheel of a car without the correct training, and I don't think that is too much to ask for young cyclists to also undergo some form of education in how best to use the road.
Cycling will only continue to grow in popularity as petrol prices increase and environmental concerns begin to change people's behaviours, and governments need to be prepared to address the issues that this creates. As the Tour Down Under winds up in Adelaide now is a fantastic time to look at the changing needs of commuters in Australia.
The culture of antagonism between drivers and riders needs to change to one of mutual respect and understanding if we are ever to become a truly bike-friendly nation. So, instead of blithely posing with racing celebrities, it is time for our leaders to get on their bikes and give us some real solutions.

Windows Remedy is a fake rogue anti-spyware program that is part of the Fake Microsoft Security Essentials infection. When this infection is installed on your computer it will display a fake Microsoft Security Essentials alert that states that it has detected an Unknown Win32/Trojan on your computer. This alert will state:
Microsoft Security Essentials Alert
Potential Threat Details
Microsoft Security Essentials detected potential threats that might compromise your private or damage your computer. Your access to these items may be suspended until you take an action. Click 'show details' to learn more.
It will then prompt you to scan your computer, which will start a fake scan of your computer that ultimately states that a particular file is infected with Trojan.Horse.Win32.PAV.64.a. It will then prompt you to install Windows Remedy to remove the virus. The text of this prompt is:
Threat prevention solution found
Security system analysis has revealed critical file system vulnerability caused by severe malware attacks.
Risk of system files infection:
The detected vulnerability may result in unauthorized access to private information and hard drive data with a seriuos possibility of irreversible data loss and unstable PC performance. To remove the malware please run a full system scan. Press 'OK' to install the software necessary to initiate system files check. To complete the installation process please reboot your computer.
When you press OK, the infection will download and install Windows Remedy and reboot your computer.
When your computer reboots you will be presented with the Windows Remedy screen before your normal Windows desktop is shown. It then prompts you to scan your computer, which will state that your computer is infected with numerous infections. In order to get to your normal Windows desktop, you will need to close the Windows Remedy program when it has finished its fake scan. As you can see this program is a scam as it is ransoming the proper operation of your computer until you purchase it. It goes without saying that you should not purchase this program for any reason.
While the program is running it will also display fake security alerts that are further used to scare you into thinking that your computer has a serious problem. Some of these alerts include:
System Security Warning
Attempt to modify register key entries is detected. Register entries analysis is recommended.
System component corrupted!
System reboot error has occurred due to lsass.exe system process failure.
This may be caused by severe malware infections.
Automatic restore of lsass.exe backup copy completed.
The correct system performance can not be resumed without eliminating the cause of lsass.exe corruption.
Name: firefox.exe
Name: c:\program files\firefox\firefox.exe
Application that seems to be a key-logger is detected. System information security is at risk. It is recommended to enable the security mode and run total System scanning.
Just like the fake scan results, these alerts are also fake and are only being used to scare you into purchasing the program. Therefore, please ignore them.
As you can see, Windows Remedy was created to scare you into thinking your computer has a severe security problem so that you will then purchase this program. For no reason should you purchase Windows Remedy, and if you already have, you should contact your credit card company and dispute the charges stating that the program is a computer infection. Finally, to remove this infection, and any related malware, please use the removal guide below.
Windows Remedy Removal Options
Self Help Guide
If you are uncomfortable making changes to your computer or following these steps, do not worry! Instead you can get free one-on-one help by asking in the forums.
- Print out these instructions as we may need to close every window that is
open later in the fix.
- It is possible that the infection you are trying to remove will not allow
you to download files on the infected computer. If this is the case, then
you will need to download the files requested in this guide on another computer
and then transfer them to the infected computer. You can transfer the files
via a CD/DVD, external drive, or USB flash drive.
- The
Windows Remedy
infection will start before your normal Windows desktop appears.
To access your desktop we first need to allow it to perform it's fake scan.
Therefore, when it tells you that it must perform a scan press the OK
button to allow it to do so.
Windows Remedy
will now perform a fake scan and then state you need to open the
License Manager. Press the OK, Open the license manager button.
You will now be at a screen where you can close the program by clicking on
the X at the top right of the
Windows Remedy
Window. Shown below is an image of the program screen that shows
the location of the X, designated by the black arrow, that
you should click on to close the program. Once you close the program, your
Windows Desktop will load normally.
Now that your Windows Desktop is available, we can continue with the rest of the removal process.
- Before we continue we should also terminate the
Windows Remedy
infection so that it does not interfere with the cleaning procedure. To do
this, please download RKill to your desktop from the following link.
RKill Download Link - (Download page will open in a new tab or browser window.)
When at the download page, click on the Download Now button labeled iExplore.exe download link. When you are prompted where to save it, please save it on your desktop.
- Once it is downloaded, double-click on the iExplore.exe
icon in order to automatically attempt to stop any processes associated with
Windows Remedy
and other Rogue programs. Please be patient while the program looks for various
malware programs and ends them. When it has finished, the black window will
automatically close and you can continue with the next step. If you get a
message that RKill is an infection, do not be concerned. This message is just
a fake warning given by
Windows Remedy
when it terminates programs that may potentially remove it. If you run into
these infections warnings that close RKill, a trick is to leave the warning
on the screen and then run RKill again. By not closing the warning, this typically
will allow you to bypass the malware trying to protect itself so that RKill
can terminate
Windows Remedy
. So, please try running RKill until the malware is no longer running. You
will then be able to proceed with the rest of the guide. Do not reboot
your computer after running RKill as the malware programs will start again.
If you continue having problems running RKill, you can download the other renamed versions of RKill from the RKill download page. All of the files listed there are renamed copies of RKill, which you can try instead. Please note that the download page will open in a new browser window or tab.
- Next we have to do is fix your Windows Registry Shell value. If we do not
fix this entry and
is deleted, then your Windows desktop will not be displayed the next time
you reboot.
To fix the Shell entry, simple download the following file to your desktop. If you are having trouble downloading the file, try right-clicking on it and selecting Save as.
Shell.reg Download Link
- Once Shell.reg has been downloaded, locate it on your desktop and double-click
on it. When Windows asks if you would like the data to be merged, please allow
it to do so.
- At this point you should download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, or MBAM, to scan your computer for any any infections or adware that may be present. Please download Malwarebytes from the following
location and save it to your desktop:
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Download Link (Download page will open in a new window)
- Once downloaded, close all programs and Windows on your computer, including
this one.
- Double-click on the icon on your desktop named mb3-setup-1878.1878-188.8.131.529.exe.
This will start the installation of MBAM onto your computer.
- When the installation begins, keep following the prompts in order to continue
with the installation process. Do not make any changes to default settings
and when the program has finished installing, make sure you leave Launch
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware checked. Then click on the Finish button. If MalwareBytes prompts you to reboot, please do not do so.
- MBAM will now start and you will be at the main screen as shown below.
Please click on the Scan Now button to start the scan. If there is an update available for Malwarebytes it will automatically download and install it before performing the scan.
- MBAM will now start scanning your computer for malware. This process can
take quite a while, so we suggest you do something else and periodically
check on the status of the scan to see when it is finished.
- When MBAM is finished scanning it will display a screen that displays any malware that it has detected. Please note that the infections found may be different
than what is shown in the image below due to the guide being updated for newer versions of MBAM.
You should now click on the Remove Selected button to remove all the seleted malware. MBAM will now delete all of the files and registry keys and add them to the programs quarantine. When removing the files, MBAM may require a reboot in order to remove some of them. If it displays a message stating that it needs to reboot, please allow it to do so. Once your computer has rebooted, and you are logged in, please continue with the rest of the steps.
- You can now exit the MBAM program.
- As many rogues and other malware are installed through vulnerabilities found
in out-dated and insecure programs, it is strongly suggested that you use
Secunia PSI to scan for vulnerable programs on your computer. A tutorial on
how to use Secunia PSI to scan for vulnerable programs can be found here:
How to detect vulnerable and out-dated programs using Secunia Personal Software Inspector
Your computer should now be free of the Windows Remedy program. If your current anti-virus solution let this infection through, you may want to consider purchasing the PRO version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to protect against these types of threats in the future.

Quickly eliminating the threat of mold quickly is crucial to maintaining your family's safety and quality of life.
ServiceMaster Restore keeps mold from growing out of hand through a series of quick, decisive responses. We begin by drying your floors, walls and furniture so that mold cannot spread, limiting the initial infestation.

Take a trip to Memphis for one powerful good time
Herkimer village, HCCC boards to meet
Get overview of region at Genesis forum on Friday
Take a trip to Memphis for one powerful good time
Take a young white radio deejay and a powerful black singer looking for her big break, place them against the backdrop of a smoky, segregated dance club in the 1950s, sprinkle in a little taboo romance, and you can't help but get a good story.
That's what writer Joe DiPietro did, and what developed was the Tony award-winning Broadway musical, Memphis.
Catch it Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday at the Stanley Center for the Arts, courtesy of the Broadway Theater League. The curtain goes up each night at 7:30 p.m.
"Memphis" tells the story of the cultural revolution that erupted when white boy (Huey) meets black girl (Felicia) and the music begins. The story is told with a blitzkrieg of powerful songs and explosive dancing. Memphis won four 2010 Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
The Stanley is located at 259 Genesee St. in downtown Utica.
Herkimer village, HCCC boards to meet
There'll be plenty of public business taking place in Herkimer County this week, and those interested in what their governments are doing should mark their calendars.
-- On Tuesday, the Village of Herkimer Board of Trustees has scheduled a public hearing at 7:05 p.m. at 120 Green St. The board will discuss a local law that would allow the village to override the state's two percent cap of the tax levy for its 2014-15 budget.
-- On Wednesday, Herkimer County Community College's boards have several meetings planned. It is expected that the Board of Trustees will announce which firm will be involved in the new president search for the college.
