Future of Economic Development and Revitalization Post Redevelopment
Thursday, September 6, 2012
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco
San Francisco, CA
The video clips available in the program are snapshots of the various perspectives about how the recent elimination of redevelopment in California might affect efforts to attract private capital and finance projects that in particular have benefited economically disadvantaged neighborhoods and where alternative financing solutions may be found.
As a local tool designed to respond to local needs, redevelopment was considered one of the most effective resources of local governments to address the conditions that inhibit private investment. Successful redevelopment projects played a catalytic role in the economic growth of local economies, the revitalization of blighted areas and the development of affordable housing. This meeting on redevelopment brought together the broad constellation of partners who were involved in redevelopment, particularly bankers, local government and community development organization representatives, with the goal of generating new partnerships and ideas that may result in investments for continued economic development and revitalization.

We expect our moisturizers to do quite a lot for us: hydrate, brighten, soothe, mattify, plump, smooth, tighten…the list goes on. When it comes to the difference between our AM and PM lotions, however, we hesitate. Sure, the benefits they promise sound appealing, but is it really necessary to have two (or three, or four…) different types if one can do the job just as well? We spoke with Los Angeles dermatologist Dr. Jessica Wu and asked her stance on the great moisturizer debate.
Meet the Expert
Jessica Wu is a Los Angeles dermatologist and founder of her namesake luxury skincare line. Aa a member of the American Academy of Dermatology as well as the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, Wu has provided care to members of Hollywood and teaches at the University of Southern California.
Click through the slideshow above to find out if you really need two different kinds of moisturizers, plus Wu's best moisturizer picks!
Wu says there are two key characteristics that separate day from nighttime moisturizers. "Daytime moisturizers have SPF to protect you from UV rays when you're walking around outside," she says. "They also tend to be more lightweight, so you can put makeup on without feeling greasy or looking shiny."
Other than being richer and not containing SPF, Wu says nighttime moisturizers may include ingredients like retinoids (to plump) and glycolic acid (to polish)—these are usually exclusive to night formulas because they can make your skin sensitive to the sun.
Simply put, yes. "It's a good idea to wear a product with SPF during the day if you're going to be outside, or even if you're indoors but near a window with sunlight streaming through," says Wu. "Many of my patients prefer using different products for day and night because they want the benefits of different ingredients. For example, someone might choose to use an antioxidant moisturizer in the morning and a product with retinoids at night."
Wearing a moisturizer with SPF during the day will also help prevent dark spots and skin discoloration, as well as slow down the development of wrinkles. Aesthetic reasons aside, SPF also has another important purpose: protecting you from skin cancer.
Wu says that if you're adamant about having just one type of moisturizer, choose a moisturizer with SPF for both day and night: "There's no harm in using SPF at night!"
Keep clicking to see which daytime and nighttime moisturizers Dr. Wu recommends!
Philosophy's Hope in a Jar Night ($50) contains glycolic acid to unclog pores and exfoliate.
Roc's Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream ($23) has retinol, which boosts collagen production.
Korres' Wild Rose 24-Hr Moisturizing & Brightening Cream ($35) is made with wild rose oil, a natural source of Vitamin C.
Boscia's Self Defense Vital Antioxidant Moisture SPF 30 ($36) features eight antioxidants and is incredibly lightweight.
The soy in Fresh's Soy Moisturizing Face Cream SPF 20 ($42) will brighten and soothe your skin.
Dr. Jessica Wu's Cosmeceuticals Anti Aging Sun Care ($75) is made with Chinese botanicals and zinc oxide to protect sensitive skin.

A Sinai Hospital cardiologist is launching a clinical trial of a type of coronary artery disease drug not yet tested in humans, building on a history at the Baltimore hospital of research to develop more effective treatments to prevent blood clotting.
Dr. Paul Gurbel is studying an intravenous drug for patients undergoing cardiac stenting, when mesh tubes are implanted to widen blocked arteries. The drug, known for now as PZ-128, would be given to patients after stent implantation to prevent platelets from sticking together around the device, potentially leading to heart attack.
The study follows past research by Gurbel addressing gaps in drug treatment for coronary artery disease. One Sinai study found that Plavix, which has long dominated the market, is not effective in some groups, while another led to U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of Brilinta, a key alternative to Plavix.
Gurbel has grander plans to further explore why, genetically, some people don't respond to certain drugs, but difficulty in retaining National Institutes of Health funding has delayed that project. In the meantime, the new drug being studied could further improve treatment of coronary artery disease by limiting bleeding risks and revealing new ways to target disease on a molecular level.
"This type of strategy has never been investigated in an intravenous type of therapy," Gurbel said. "It's a totally new class of drugs. ... It's very exciting for us to be looking at this."
Gurbel is working with researchers at Tufts Medical Center in Boston who developed the drug and are leading exploration of it. Athan Kuliopulos, a Tufts medical professor who earned his medical degree and a doctorate in biochemistry at the Johns Hopkins University, has been working with Gurbel in the area known as anti-platelet therapy for the past several years.
They plan to recruit nearly three dozen volunteers at Sinai who have at least two coronary artery disease risk factors, which can include obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, a history of smoking or diabetes. In the initial phase of clinical trials, researchers will look for evidence the drug is safe and shows signs of effectiveness.
Given that the drug is administered directly into the bloodstream and can act immediately, any such signs should be clear, Kuliopulos said. Existing drugs like Plavix and Brilinta, both tested at Sinai, are given orally and remain in the body for days, posing a bleeding risk.
On a microscopic level, the drug is blocking a receptor by passing through blood cell walls, something no competing drugs on the market currently do, Kuliopulos said. The other drugs attempt to block receptors from the outside of blood cells.
While it's not clear whether that will mean more effective treatment, it does explore a drug delivery method that is new to coronary artery disease therapy.
"Half of the receptor has never been targeted before. It's on the other side of the barrier, so to speak," Kuliopulos said. "You have an opportunity to look for drugs on a part that's never been looked at before."
The researchers planned to start recruiting candidates this month, aiming to gather enough by October and complete the trial by the end of the year. If they prove safety and efficacy, the research would move on to a second phase of clinical trials, involving 600 to 800 patients from at least three different hospitals who are undergoing angioplasty, when narrowed arteries are widened in surgery. The second phase could take about three years.
The NIH has committed to funding the research to that point, assuming that the first phase of trials is successful. Beyond that, a large partner like a pharmaceutical company would be needed to fund a third stage of trials to prove that any benefits in treatment from the drug are statistically significant.
Meanwhile, Gurbel is pursuing a related study that could further explain why drugs like Plavix don't work the same in all patients. Gurbel and Dr. Alan Shuldiner, a professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, wrote research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 2009 that revealed the treatment gap.
They are planning a follow-up study that would show that using alternatives in patients who don't respond to Plavix improves health outcomes. But that effort was stalled last year when it became clear that more subjects would be needed than could be afforded under an NIH grant.
Gurbel said he isn't deterred from delving into the science further.
"Just like we do with deciding certain cancer drugs, where there are certain genotypes that predict a response to certain chemotherapy strategies, we're trying to do a similar type of thing for people with coronary artery disease who undergo stenting," Gurbel said. "We're trying to personalize therapy to optimize outcomes."

So the Old Spice Classic hasn't happened yet. It starts on Nov. 22, Thanksgiving, with West Virginia, Gonzaga, Davidson, Clemson, Marist, UTEP, Oklahoma, and Vanderbilt battling to win all the deodorant. ESPN polled its loyal subjects, and they like West Virginia to win. But why, oh, why?
Gonzaga and West Virginia have already played each other. Gonzaga, which was -10 to win on Monday, ended up taking it by 34 points. This was a rematch of the 2012 NCAA Tournament eight months ago, when Gonzaga beat West Virginia by 23 points. Gonzaga should win.
Stranger things have happened: The Dayton Flyers won this tournament last year (although against some terrible teams). And West Virginia is, like, super high-scoring, right? But still.

Lately, inspectors from a third-party inspection company have been asking me about determining the number of circuits required for outlets installed in dwelling units. The supervisor wanted to know what method his inspectors could use to get a general idea of the number of circuits necessary to supply these outlets. The lack of a unified method was creating a problem because each inspector had his or her own way of doing things, and there was no consistent procedure. Arguments among his inspectors, contractors and electricians (wiremen) were holding up construction jobs.
When I was chief electrical inspector, we divided the circuits into three types:
1 General lighting and receptacle outlets (general purpose circuits)
2 Small-appliance circuits
3 Special appliance circuits (individual circuits)
General lighting and receptacle outlets
The general lighting and receptacle outlets can be determined and inspected by multiplying the square footage of the dwelling unit by 3 volt-amperes (VA) per square foot as listed in Table 220.12 of the National Electrical Code (NEC). All the lighting outlets are installed per Section 210.70(A) and the receptacle outlets per Section 210.52(A) through (H).
Such outlets are located in bedrooms, bathrooms, dens, living rooms, halls, garages, kitchen areas, outside areas, etc.
Determining the number
The general lighting load and number of circuits for a 3,000-sq.-ft. dwelling unit can be determined and inspected like this:
Step 1: Based on voltage and amperes (A)
Table 220.12, 220.14(J)
120-volt (V) circuit 20A OCPD = 2,400 VA
Step 2: Outlets per square foot
Table 220.12
2,400 VA ÷ 3 VA = 800 sq. ft.
Answer: There is no limit to the number of outlets that are permitted in the 800-square-foot area per Table 220.12 and NEC sections 220.14(J) and 210.11.
Based on the square-foot concept
Table 220.12, 210.11(B)
Answer: Rounding up, four 20A, general-purpose branch circuits can supply a dwelling unit having a 3,000-sq.-ft. area.
Note that local codes may limit the number of outlets on a circuit so that nuisance tripping of the overcurrent protection device (OCPD) is prevented under normal conditions of uses. For example, many jurisdictions will allow only 10 outlets on a 20A circuit and eight on a 15A circuit, while others allow 13 on a 20A circuit (20A ÷ 1.5A = 13) and 10 on a 15A circuit (15A ÷ 1.5A = 10) as calculated per 220.14(I) and (L). Note that the 1.5A is found by dividing 180 VA by 120V, which equals 1.5A. Note that the 180 VA requirement is not applicable to dwelling-unit calculations and is used in the above examples for guidance only.
Small-appliance circuits
The outlets installed in the kitchen, pantry and breakfast and dining rooms require a minimum of two 20A small-appliance circuits. These circuits must be routed to the kitchen countertop(s), and the outlets must be proportioned between the two circuits as evenly as possible to prevent unbalanced loading of such circuits. If too many portable appliances are plugged into the same small-appliance circuit and overloading of the circuit occurs, then nuisance tripping of the OCPD can occur.
The two 20A small-appliance circuits wired with 12-2 AWG with ground nonmetallic-sheathed cable are only permitted to supply outlets located in the kitchen, pantry and breakfast and dining rooms. Note that the general-purpose circuits must supply all other outlets or individual circuits as outlined in Table 220.12, 210.23(A) or 210.19(A)(1).
Special appliance circuits
The special appliance circuits are known in the industry as individual circuits that serve directly installed appliances. For example, these circuits feed such loads as circulating pump motors, air conditioners and similar appliances in effort to prevent opening or tripping the upstream overcurrent protection device.
Countertop receptacles
There are three types of countertops that must be inspected in dwellings:
1 Countertops with a wall per 210.52(C)(1)
2 Island countertops per 210.52(C)(2)
3 Countertops without a wall (peninsular) per 210.52(C)(3)
Bathroom receptacles
At least one 20A branch circuit [per 210.52(D)] must be provided to supply the bathroom, and no other outlets are permitted to be connected to this circuit. This circuit with its connected outlets must be inspected in this manner to be considered Code-compliant.
Number of circuits and outlets needed
Four general-purpose circuits and two small-appliance circuits are needed. One 20A circuit is needed for the bathroom, and whatever number in size is needed for the special appliance circuits. A 20A branch circuit is also required for the laundry in a dwelling unit.

Complaint claims violations in governor's race
Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A supporter of a rival Republican gubernatorial candidate filed a complaint Thursday with California's elections watchdog agency, claiming that state Assemblyman Tim Donnelly has failed to report the gift of a borrowed motor home as a campaign expense.
The motor home, which Donnelly calls "the Liberty Express," is frequently featured in his social media posts and emails as he campaigns for governor throughout California.
The complaint filed by Tom Scott of Folsom, a supporter of GOP candidate Neel Kashkari, says the total cost to rent the RV Donnelly used for a 13-day bus tour in mid-February would range from $4,875 to $28,000. But no costs or gifts were reported in Donnelly's campaign finance filing covering the period ending March 17.
Donnelly's campaign also had the motor home at the California Republican Party convention from March 14-16, and he has been touring the state in it this month.
The San Bernardino County lawmaker, a Republican, reported using a borrowed motor home in 2013.
Scott's complaint also claims the reported cost of using the motor home for $200 a day in 2013 is "well below market value." It also alleges other reporting violations in Donnelly's March campaign filing, such as failing to disclose who paid a $4,314 American Express bill.
A spokeswoman for Donnelly's campaign, Katherine Parkinson, previously told The Associated Press that the costs of the motor home would be reported in an amendment to the initial report. She said this week that Donnelly's campaign would provide the documents but has not done so.
Donnelly's campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the complaint filed Thursday.

Excellent advice.
To add on to Nelson's comment; The great thing about communicating through writing is it gives a) you a chance to write, re-write and clarify your feelings so when you send it, it is your clear and genuine thought and b) When people are listening and they hear something that is a "trigger" for them their logical thoughts process are put on hold while the emotions take over as their body goes into full defense/attack mode. At this point they are no longer listening, they are thinking of responding while you are still trying to make your point. whether in their head or out load by interrupting you. This makes communication difficult at best and futile at most. Writing allows it all to sink in. He may have to read it several times and each time, hopefully, he will begin to see it with a reasonable and rational heart.
Lastly be respectful of his desire to be a man of faith and make sure you know how much you love him.
I think you've had very good advice. In writing to your father you will not be able to be interrupted and also your natural anxiety at having to oppose your father cannot make you appear unsure of yourself. Good luck with it. :)
My father wasn't interested in why I was an Atheist, he just knew I was wrong.
My advice don't do it unless it becomes an issue. then do where its just the two of you. prepare a few talking point, he will try to reconvert you, so have a few good arguments prepared. if it gets to the point of an argument walk away and don't come back until he's ready to respect your opinions. also don't worry about hurting his feelings, hes a big boy he can handle, worry about him hurting yours. also the only way you be prepared for questions is if your well read on the subject, read the bible and take note of the immoral parts (book chapter and verse).
I agree with Nelson. Putting it in writing could avoid a heated discussion that goes off topic and could lead to personal attacks. When I told my mother she took it really personal and started to bring up tons of unrelated things trying to figure out what she did wrong. She still doesn't really understand and thinks I'm going through a phase. I think putting it in writing seams like a good suggestion for myself. It would be a good way for my mother to get my complete thoughts before interrupting me with her sobs and wondering out loud if she gave me too much freedom or not enough.
I've never really sat down and really talked to my mom about it. She learned through discussions I had with my Aunt (her sister) on FB. Not the best way to find out I'll admit. My mom has attempted to pull Pascals's Gambit on me.. "What's it going to hurt to believe?" .. My response was, "Well, assuming for a second God exists and he is all knowing. He'll know I'm not being genuine and essentially lying. Last I checked lying is one of the 10 Commandments.So I'd rather be honest with myself and with him -- again assuming they exist. If they don't, I haven't wasted my life in believing in something that's not real." That seemed to quiet her for that moment..Since then she's asked the question again on several different occasions, I assume thinking I'll change my stance. ... Just my own experience.
I don't know your father, so I can't predict how he will react. I think it's important to reflect upon the function of telling him that you don't believe as he does. After that, you can commit to your goal regardless of the difficulties that may arise. When I told my parents, I think my goal was mainly to stop living what felt like a lie and to stop doing things (like going to mass and praying) that I no longer wanted to do. While their reaction hurt me (and them) a lot at first, it was temporary and no worse than what I felt sitting in church with them. Parents with strong religious affiliations and strong beliefs are naturally going to be scared when their children venture outside of what they consider to be a safe zone. My only advice is to be clear about what this revelation means in terms of how your behavior in front of your father is going to change (e.g. no more sunday church, no more praying, if I marry it won't be in a church, etc).
Also: If he doesn't accept it right away, that's ok. I've had friends and family members who were shocked at first, but after a while, and after many questions and re-conversion attempts, finally have accepted things.
Remember, you've had time to come to grips with your atheism, but it may be shocking news to them and they may need time to process.
I had absolutely no difficulty discussing my beliefs with any of my relatives who were willing to discuss them, though all of them were religious. They were the ones who were uncomfortable.
I told my parents:"Mom, dad, do you love me..?" They replied "Of course, you silly..!" then I told them "So, no matter what I think about god, love me like I still continue to be your son" Until now, they don't mind that I'm atheist nor my other 2 brothers, 3 sisters, nephews, nieces and other relatives. So far is more than 7 years and still they tell me that they love me every occasion. Tell him that you still love him and is not god that make you have this feeling about him is the relationship father son.
I like this approach but I've used it too many times to tell my parents when I've done something bad so it would only make them suspicious.

Your OndadeMar can go through a lot of sun, sand, salt, sunscreen, and chlorine. It deserves the right care. We suggest hand washing it in cool water using a mild detergent, then laying it in the shade to dry. Keep light and dark colors separate when wet, as some items may bleed. Try to avoid dry cleaning, ironing, bleaching and rough surfaces.

Correction Appended Jan. 25, 2012.
Around 15,000 crocodiles have absconded from a farm in South Africa due to heavy rain and flooding.
The massive reptiles were let loose after an intense deluge risked bursting their enclosure in Pont Drift, Limpopo, near South Africa's border with Botswana. Faced with impending calamity, the property's owners were forced to open the gates to release the water — and the crocs along with it.
(MORE: Drunken Australian Man Tries to Ride a Crocodile)
Although a few thousand have since been recaptured in the nearby scrubland, at least half of the crocodiles remain at large, and the search zone is widening: one was later discovered on a school rugby pitch 75 miles away.
Zane Langman, the son-in-law of the farm's owner, told South Africa's Beeld newspaper that floodwater from the nearby Limpopo River rose swiftly from waist-height at around 1pm to over head-height by nightfall.
"We will catch them as the farmers call us and say there are crocodiles," he said. "At night it's easier to see them because their eyes shine red."
Research shows that crocodiles rarely attack on land — they prefer to ambush their prey from the water's edge — and so should not present much of a problem as long as people keep a safe distance.
The surrounding province of Limpopo has been hit by serious floods that have killed at least 10 people and made many more homeless. Tens of thousands have also been evacuated from homes in neighboring Mozambique due to the severe weather.
Nuisance crocodiles and alligators are a problem around the world; in Florida, for example, an alligator tore off a 17-year-old boy's arm in July, and residents perennially launch hunts for aggressive specimens from both groups that present a danger to the public.
Hundreds of crocodiles also escaped into the suburbs of Bangkok when severe flooding hit Thailand in October last year. In that case, instead of issuing warnings to stay indoors, the government offered a reward of 1,000 baht (around $33) for each predator captured alive.

In a previous version of this story, alligators and crocodiles were addressed in the same sentence without distinguishing between the two. This has been clarified in the above text.

It was 1959 when Dick Cheney, then a student at Yale University, turned 18 and became eligible for the draft.
Eventually, like 16 million other young men of that era, Mr. Cheney sought deferments. By the time he turned 26 in January 1967 and was no longer eligible for the draft, he had asked for and received five deferments, four because he was a student and one for being a new father.
Although President Richard M. Nixon stopped the draft in 1973 and the war itself ended 29 years ago on Friday, the issue of service remains a personally sensitive and politically potent touchstone in the biographies of many politicians from that era.
For much of Mr. Cheney's political career, his deferments have largely been a nonissue.
In an increasingly vituperative political campaign, Mr. Cheney this week again questioned the credentials of Senator John Kerry and his ability to be commander in chief. Mr. Kerry, who was decorated in Vietnam and has made his service there a central element of his campaign, fired back.
Putting Mr. Cheney's record in the spotlight, Mr. Kerry said that he ''got every deferment in the world and decided he had better things to do.''
Steve Schmidt, a spokesman for the Bush-Cheney campaign, dismissed the criticism, saying that Mr. Kerry was delving into a subject that he had said he would not touch. Mr. Schmidt said that Mr. Kerry was trying to divert attention from what the spokesman said was Mr. Kerry's reversals on other topics.
While Mr. Cheney's deferment history was briefly an issue when George W. Bush picked him as his running mate in 2000, the Democrats did not focus on it after Al Gore, the Democratic presidential nominee, who had served in Vietnam, picked as his running mate Senator Joseph Lieberman, who also had not served.
The issue also received little attention during Mr. Cheney's Senate confirmation hearings as defense secretary in 1989 under the first President Bush, largely because the Armed Services Committee had just completed a bitter and protracted battle over the president's original choice, John G. Tower. Mr. Tower had faced questions about philandering, drinking and conflicts over defense contracts before he was rejected.
Senators of both parties were so eager to confirm Mr. Cheney quickly that they were relatively undemanding, not pressing him on the draft but merely asking him if he had anything to say about it.
He said he ''never served'' because of deferments to finish a college career that lasted six years rather than four, which he attributed to subpar academic performance and the fact that he had to work to pay for his education.
He added that he ''would have obviously been happy to serve had I been called.''
Away from the hearing room, he told the Washington Post that he had sought his deferments because ''I had other priorities in the 60's than military service.''
''I don't regret the decisions I made,'' he added. ''I complied fully with all the requirements of the statutes, registered with the draft when I turned 18. Had I been drafted, I would have been happy to serve.''
But others contend that Mr. Cheney appeared to go to some length to avoid the draft.
''Five deferments seems incredible to me,'' said David Curry, a professor at the University of Missouri in St. Louis who has written extensively about the draft, including a 1985 book, ''Sunshine Patriots: Punishment and the Vietnam Offender.''
''That's a lot of times for the draft board to say O.K.,'' Mr. Curry said.
In February 1962, when Mr. Cheney was classified as 1-A -- available for service -- he was doing poorly at Yale. But the military was taking only older men at that point, and like others who were in college at the time, Mr. Cheney seemed to have little concern about being drafted.
In June, he left Yale. After returning home to Casper, a small city in east-central Wyoming, he worked as a lineman for a power company.
At that point, the Vietnam War was still just a glimmer on the horizon. In 1962, only 82,060 men were inducted into the service, the fewest since 1949. Mr. Cheney was eligible for the draft but, as he said during his confirmation hearings in 1989, he was not called up because the Selective Service System was taking only older men.
But by 1963, ferment in Vietnam was rising. Mr. Cheney enrolled in Casper Community College in January 1963 -- he turned 22 that month -- and sought his first student deferment on March 20, according to records from the Selective Service System. After transferring to the University of Wyoming at Laramie, he sought his second student deferment on July 23, 1963.
On Aug. 7, 1964, Congress approved the Gulf of Tonkin resolution, which allowed President Lyndon B. Johnson to use unlimited military force in Vietnam. The war escalated rapidly from there.
Just 22 days later, Mr. Cheney married his high school sweetheart, Lynne. He sought his third student deferment on Oct. 14, 1964.
In May 1965, Mr. Cheney graduated from college and his draft status changed to 1-A. But he was married, which offered him some protection.
In July, President Johnson announced that he was doubling the number of men drafted. The number of inductions soared, to 382,010 in 1966 from 230,991 in 1965 and 112,386 in 1964.
Mr. Cheney obtained his fourth deferment when he started graduate school at the University of Wyoming on Nov. 1, 1965.
On Oct. 6, 1965, the Selective Service lifted its ban against drafting married men who had no children. Nine months and two days later, Mr. Cheney's first daughter, Elizabeth, was born. On Jan. 19, 1966, when his wife was about 10 weeks pregnant, Mr. Cheney applied for 3-A status, the ''hardship'' exemption, which excluded men with children or dependent parents. It was granted.
In January 1967, Mr. Cheney turned 26 and was no longer eligible for the draft.
Of the 26.8 million men who were eligible for the draft between 1964 and 1973, only 2.2 million were drafted while 8.7 million joined voluntarily, according to ''Chance and Circumstance: the Draft, the War, and the Vietnam Generation,'' a 1978 book by Lawrence M. Baskir and William A. Strauss. Mr. Cheney was among the vast majority of 16 million men -- about 60 percent of those eligible -- who avoided the draft by legal means.
The deferment process proved controversial, discriminating against men who were black or poor, and a lottery was introduced in 1969. President Nixon did away with student deferments in 1971 and the draft ended in 1973.
But the deferments left such a bitter after-effect that the Selective Service says on its Web site (www.sss.gov) that if a draft were reinstituted, it would be conducted much differently and there would be fewer excuses for people to get out of it.
At the time of his confirmation hearings as defense secretary, Mr. Cheney said that he had not taken any action either for or against the military during the Vietnam War. But, he told an interviewer at the time, ''I think those who did in fact serve deserve to be honored for their service.''
Of American involvement in Vietnam, he said: ''Was it a noble cause? Yes, indeed, I think it was.''

More reasons against Diablo 3's online-only DRM
1) Weekly/server maintenance. We all dislike World of Warcraft's weekly maintenance though we know it is necessary. It's almost a given that Diablo 3 will also have some form of regular maintenance. Why? Because you can't run gaming servers continuously without a minimum of downtime.
So what, many of you will say. Well, here's a scenario. It so happens that you get time off from work/school/etc right on the day when the game is being maintained. You've been itching to play D3 and now you can't, because the servers are offline. Bugger! This has happened to me on more than one occasion with WoW.
2) Some people are in the military and/or deployed overseas where they don't have access to the internet or the connection is spotty and they can't play games which require an internet connection. Sucks to be them, right? Too bad that some of them are HUGE Diablo fans. They'll just have to suck it up and wait until they get back home, in a few months/years. And if they have to redeploy, fuck'em, right?
3) Some people who are working long hours and/or have kids and thus not a lot of time on their hands, might get a little bit of time for themselves every now and then, only to find out that the game is under maintenance or their internet connection is out.
4) Here's a big one that's been bothering me lately: character names. What do I mean by this? Well, we all know that in WoW, character names are unique. I haven't seen anyone so far talk about how character names will be handled, considering that Diablo 3 can only be played online. I highly doubt Blizzard will allow duplicate names. This means that players won't be able to pick their favorite names. Damn it! It would have so worked if the game had an offline single-player mode!
I'm not saying that Diablo 3 should be offline only. No, I'm cool with the online multiplayer aspect of it. But I do realize that many people will miss LAN play and I think it's really sad that Blizzard decided not to include it. However, the inclusion of single player offline mode can be done easily and completely separate from the online mode. It's simple: keep offline characters on your computer, totally segregated from Bnet characters. Wouldn't it be nice to have more satisfied customers?

I read somewhere that names will be handled like they are on Starcraft 2: Each name has a non-visible set of numbers after it, so you can pick whatever name you want. If you happen to be in a game with someone with the same name, then the hidden numbers show up to distinguish you from the other person. I probably explained that poorly, but i imagine you get the idea :)

I know exactly what you are talking about. It's the same idea as a unique id (or key) in a database. Each character will have an unique id associated with it so they can use any name they want. Well, at least they did this much for players.

Back from Greece so I had some time to read more infos and news diablo3-related. With a more relaxed mind I will try to give my personal point of view on the hot subjects.
What I hated at first, I now like a lot. Because I am one of those who want to play a game where everyone has the same rules, the same difficulties and the same challenges. That kind of stuff cannot be achieved with offline savegames. If you don't centralize the crucial data, you destroy the purpose of achievements, competition, progression and so on. Offline games become sandboxes where you can clone and obtain stuff with few clicks.... I don't like it anymore.
Real dollars/euros will be optional, meaning you can play with ingame gold only if you want. Adding real money sounds very risky to me but it opens new scenarios too: I like grinding for items and that could potentially become lucrative. Just think about the insane prices of rare WoW trading cards for example. That would basically be the same.
I agree it will damage those who play a lot, yes. But If a maintennance day becomes a problem for a gamer, I think the problem is not Blizzard, really. Again, it's true someone could be able to play ONLY during the maintennance day... well that would be bad luck, as it would be in WoW.
There ARE situations where you will be cut out (mountains, beach, airplane, ...) but -again- I don't think these are so commom and popular to really make the difference. Internet is available almost everywhere and if sometimes we wont be able to connect... well, let's just get some fresh air, no one will die for that.
That sucks a lot and I understand your frustration. I don't care about that because I don't play with friends (I never did in Wow and I never do with any game). If I need online friends, I just meet them while playing the game and see how things go on.
All in all I think that forcing players to be ONLINE will drastically reduce cheaters, hackers, griefers, scammers and -in general- idiots and immature people. It wont solve the problem, but it will help a lot.
About piracy: Wow was hacked long time ago and there are tons of "unofficial" servers. The truth is... few people care about them. Some do, but the majority focus on the official and well suppoirted game. Blizzard itself never really give any special attention to them, because they have never been a problem.

Aren't these the same thing? I still have a big problem with this one. Like I said, I'm not one of those who doesn't have internet access. I have a good connection and all that. However, there are people who SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE THE OPTION, for various personal reasons. I feel really bad for them. And then, there's something that a guy on a forum mentioned. You're at the mercy of your internet/wireless connection. What if this awesome item drops and before you can pick it up, your connection craps out for a second? Like, say, your router resets or something. Wouldn't you be really pissed?
I gave this some thought and it opens some intriguing possibilities. I'm no longer against it. I just hope they implement something meaningful that can be done with gold, lest it lose its value.
There might be a possibility that you can access other geographical regions but that's not certain. One thing is certain, if I were to buy D3 in the US and then wish to play it over in Europe with my friends, I would have to buy another copy. And the funny thing is that I'm not even sure your Battle.net account allows you to have the same game multiple time but in different regions. In the US I don't have any gamer friends anyway so it wouldn't matter.
About piracy: D3 will almost certainly be cracked but I'm not sure how good it will be so I won't even bother.
- August 13, 2011 at 7:07 PM
Drops and loot will probably last lonng enough for your connection come back if you had some internet problems, much like it already happens with WoW, for example.
Of course I see your point and I agree that this specific situation (internet lost) sucks a lot if you are in the middle of the action. But as said above, to my eyes any offline game lost its appeal because it's not a real challenge anymore. You can cheat, hack and get stuff easily (Diablo has always been the cheaters heaven) and for those who don't have online trusted friends (like me) that makes multiplayer simply impossible.
To recap, my opinion is that even if there are some disadvantages with this new model... I feel that the benefits in the long run will be much stronger.

Even Blizzard has admitted there are solid reasons for allowing offline play (Rob Pardo said he likes to play on aeroplanes and won't be able to).
However they've also said that the pros outweigh the cons. In particular I'm sympathetic to the idea that they're making it harder to cheat.
In D2 you could figure out cheats too easily. Dupes, maphack even speedhack and townkill. By never releasing the code for an item anywhere it's much harder to reverse engineer that code.
In online play if I find a Brutality Blade my client will just get an Item ID number. To support offline play my client would need code for what a Brutality Blade does. If there's code on my client it can be reverse engineered. If all I have is a serial number the best I can do is re-write it.
Considering how massive a problem duping was in D2 and D1 it's very reasonable.
- August 15, 2011 at 1:50 AM
The "online only" option is also a must have for real currency (Euros and Dollars). Grinding will be much more interesting now, I guess.

@ Stabs
Nice blog, added to my daily visits :)

Guys guys guys!
I agree 100% that cheating should be impossible for online play. But who cares whether you cheat when playing offline, all by yourself? Or even with your friends? Hey, I used to play Doom with god mode on in the old days, when I didn't know better. So what? That was my way of enjoying the game.
I'm not saying that I would cheat if I could play offline. Nope, the game wouldn't make sense if it became too easy.
That's why offline should be completely isolated from online.
It's not like Blizzard had only 2 options: either allow offline play with widespread cheating (including in online multiplayer) OR make it online only and not allow cheating. They can implement both options and cater to a wider audience.
I'm getting tired of debating this though. It's clear that they won't change a thing and that's the path they chose to take going forward. So I'll stop bitching :)
- August 15, 2011 at 8:24 PM
Maybe it's not THAT easy to keep the code the game for both offline and online players. Maybe we think it is... but if that was the case I am sure Blizzard would have added it.
Having the offline version means you have to release all the code and that opens the door to reverse engineering and other bad stuff, as noted in the comments above.
I don't think Blizzard had to choose between yes or not. They just picked the most obvious option (online only) and realized that it was incompatible with a possible offline version.
You know what made me a little "sad"? The fact that you will pay a posting fee for real-money auctions too. That's how Blizz will make TONS of money from Diablo III, of course... but I don't like the idea of a gambling-like game where I risk to lose real money every time I post something on the auction house.
On a side note, will we have a "lobby" to spam/advertise items or will Blizz force us to post them (or trade with friends only)? If I can skip AH real money fees but I can /trade WTS Goldenberg Chainmail 20,00$ it will be fine enough.
- August 16, 2011 at 6:49 AM
- Darth Solo said...
I'm sure that if they were able to split the game back in 2000, they can do it now.
But meh, I'm done debating the issue. We can bitch and moan but it won't change a thing.
Well, a posting fee was a given. First, that's how auctions work in real life (and even in games). Second, Blizzard needs to make money somehow to support those Bnet servers and to continue to add new stuff to the game. Third, it discourages people to undercut each other into oblivion, which should help keep prices reasonably "high".
What surprises me though is that the fees are not percentage based.
Also, something which hasn't been mentioned (or I haven't heard yet) is whether you get the posting fee back if the item sells, like in WoW.
- August 16, 2011 at 8:55 PM
I am pretty sure the posting fee will be refunded when you win the auction. It would not make much sense ALWAYS having both auction and selling fees. Also, Blizz stated that much like in WOW you will lose the fee if you don't win the auction. That automatically implies a refund policy (in theory).
Back on topic (offline and online). I will give you a good point for the online only game. Let's suppose you have BOTH offline and online. Blizz would obviously block offline characters from playing online, that's fine. But... can you imagine the frustration if you find that awesome 1000$ rare item while questing on your offline toon? No auction house for you... that would suck a LOT.
Another possible good point: given that 60$ is a lot of money for a single game (I agree with you), thi is one of the few cases where you "can" refund the initial costs thanks to the real money AH. I am sure we will be able to raise at least 60$ during our Diablo3 career :)
Fees wont be percentage based to prevent absurd real money fees (losing few cents sucks, losing hundreds would be horrible).
- August 17, 2011 at 7:38 AM
Moving to another subject, it will be interesting to see how many active WoW players will drop WoW for Diablo3. Grinding for "gold" can be fun. Grinding for REAL money looks much more interesting and rewarding.
Would you keep spending a monthly fee to grind for virtual money... when you can spend the initial cost of the game and then try to raise some dollars/euros while grinding and having fun?
I would quit WoW for sure (I already did months ago anyway).
- August 17, 2011 at 7:40 AM
- Echo said...
BAAAAAAHH!!!! Years later they finally decided to add some sort of appearance changer tool. You can basically wear Tier12 stuff with the look of Tier2. People begged that for how much... years?
Some time ago that feature alone would have dragged me back to the game. But now not even a free account wold bring me back to Azeroth. Can't wait to play and foucs on D3, really.
- August 17, 2011 at 11:56 AM
- Darth Solo said...
Well, you have a good point there about finding the $1000 item while playing offline but you would know that beforehand so you would weigh the risks.
Yeah, I thought about the cost of the game and if you take the RMAH into consideration, it doesn't matter anymore. I'm sure almost anyone should be able to make at least $1 an hour playing it.
The WoW appearance thing doesn't do anything for me, but I quit WoW months ago anyway. It would certainly NOT bring me back to it.
In fact, I'm sure lots of people will quit WoW for D3. Many of them are probably still playing WoW because they are bored waiting for D3.
- August 17, 2011 at 8:46 PM
- Darth Solo said...
P.S. I would like to see WoW's subscriber numbers after D3 is launched.
- August 17, 2011 at 8:47 PM
- Malvius said...
Does D3 have a subscription fee?
- August 17, 2011 at 9:51 PM
- Echo said...
Nope, D3 will be free (60$ initial cost apart).
- August 18, 2011 at 3:12 AM
- Darth Solo said...
@Malvius no no no! Gosh no! That would have killed it for sure.
You just buy the game for (likely) $60 and then you can play to your heart's content. The only catch is that it's online-only, meaning that you need an internet connection to play it and you need to stay connected while playing it, even if playing on your lonesome.

2011 SHU Invitational Tournament Central
Fairfield, CT – Jessica Colberg (Long Beach, CA) and Kimmee Roleder (Pasadena, CA) both posted a match high 18 digs as the Pioneers defeated Brown in SHU's home opener, the nightcap of day one of the 2011 SHU Invitational. Elise Sage (Greenwood Village, CO) was the most efficient attacker on the floor, notching nine kills on just 13 attempts for a .692 hitting percentage. The win increases the Pioneers program best home winning streak to 18, dating back to the end of the 2009 season.
Brown (0-1) had the momentum in the early going and jumped out a 7-3 advantage in the opening set. The Pioneers chipped away at the lead and eventually grabbed an advantage of their own at 17-16 following a block from Sage and Maile Hetherington (Thousand Oaks, CA). SHU rattled off three straight points late, including a kill from freshman Alissa Young (La Verne, CA) to earn three set points at 24-21. The Bears saved the first but eventually a service error gave the Pioneers the opening frame, 25-22.
Sacred Heart (3-1) posted its highest hitting percentage of the match, .256, in the second set behind five kills from Johanna Ovsenek (London, Ontario). Ovsenek finished the night tied with Roleder for a team high ten kills. SHU doubled up Brown in the early going, cruising out to a 10-5 cushion. The lead reached as many as nine at 21-12 as Dianis Mercado (Vega Baja, Puerto Rico) slammed home one of her three kills of the stanza. The Pioneers eventually took the set 25-20 on an Ovsenek kill to move within one set of the victory.
The Pioneers rolled early in the third set and again built a health advantage as Roleder, Sage, and Hetherington supplied three straight kills to make it 13-6. SHU held the Bears to just a .053 hitting mark in the final set. Young posted back-to-back kills, she finished with eight total, to give the Pioneers a 20-11 edge. Roleder tallied the last point with a kill as Sacred Heart took the set 25-17 and completed the sweep of the Bears.
Alisa Mesa (Long Beach, CA) and Megan Pulone (Diamond Bar, CA), who share setting duties, each dished out a match high 21 assists. Roleder notched her first double-double of the year in her debut inside the Pitt Center.
The Sacred Heart women's volleyball team rounds out the SHU Invitational tomorrow with a 9:30 am meeting with a 9:30 am meeting with Hartford and a 4:30 pm clash against Rutgers.

This short documentary depicts an Aboriginal Winnipeg teen's struggle to stay in school and away from local gangs. Filmed over 2 years, the film is a moving portrait of one family trying to break the cycle of addiction, violence and poverty in an environment filled with anger and despair.
I am Aboriginal.Ive seen Aboriginal people all over the world.They are still suffering horror today yet they are way more caring&selfless than we are in Canada.We can't stay victims! It's like drinking poison ourselves but expecting things to get better. Before Chief Seattle was executed, his last words to Aboriginal people were: "Our people will never stand unless we become concerned with the rights&civil libteries of ALL people & NOT just for ourselves."
