An attorney who served as chief of staff to former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich should be suspended from the practice of law for three years, a panel of the state's Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission's (ARDC) Review Board recommended this week.
In a report released Wednesday, the Review Board agreed with the recommendation of the ARDC Hearing Board that John Frank Harris receive a three-year suspension for his conduct in the now-imprisoned governor's scheme to sell President Barack Obama's open Senate seat.
The Review Board rejected the ARDC administrator's push for disbarment, as well as Harris' request that his recommended suspension be imposed retroactively to the date of his April 2010 interim suspension.
The board's recommendation will go the Illinois Supreme Court, which has the final say in disciplining attorneys. Either party could ask the high court to review the matter before imposing discipline.
The disciplinary case lodged against Harris in June 2012 stems from his guilty plea and criminal conviction for conspiracy to commit solicitation, a federal charge dealing with actions during his employment with Blagojevich, a Democrat who was ousted from office in 2009.
Harris started working for the former governor in 2005 as his chief operating officer and became chief of staff in 2006.
The ARDC accused Harris of conspiring with and helping Blagojevich engage in corruption by "soliciting and demanding things of value for the benefit of Blagojevich and his wife in exchange for the promise of an appointment of a United States Senator."
According to the Review Board's report, Blagojevich "began to tire of his job as governor and began to discuss his political and economic future with [Harris]" in 2008, at which time the then-governor's "campaign chest was dwindling and his ability to raise additional campaign funds, which also covered his legal expenses in what he knew to be a federal probe of his administration, was limited by the passage of new ethics laws."
While Harris was not involved in most of the allegations in the criminal complaint against Blagojevich, the report notes that "he was intimately involved in what was arguably the most notable charge- the attempt by Blagojevich to obtain something of value in exchange for the appointment to the Senate seat vacated by Barack Obama."
In a phone call that was recorded by the federal government as part of its investigation into Blagojevich, the report states that "Blagojevich indicated that it was good that Obama had a preference for someone to fill the seat and asked [Harris], 'Now, we should get something for that, couldn't I? [Harris] replied, 'Yes.'"
Conversations between the two men became more detailed leading up and after the presidential election that Obama, an Illinois senator, won in November 2008. These conversations included Harris telling Blagojevich about alleged promises of Senate candidates to raise campaign contributions for him in exchange for the appointment.
"At no time following any of these conversations did [Harris] go to the authorities, quit his job, or tell Blagojevich that he would not assist him," the ARDC Review Board states in its report.
It adds, "Although Blagojevich sometimes referred to [Harris] as the 'Prince of Darkness' because [Harris] usually dissented from what Blagojevich suggested, during the recorded phone conversations in November and December regarding the Senate appointment, [Harris] rarely dissented and instead actively engaged in the scheme."
The Review Board also notes that in November and December of 2008, Harris learned that Blagojevich was holding up the signing of a racetrack bill passed by the Illinois legislature until someone in the racetrack industry made contributions to his campaign.
During that same time period, Blagojevich also told Harris to tell someone at the Chicago Tribune that the state would hold up financial support to the Tribune Company, as well as the sale of Wrigley Field, if the company didn't fire members of the newspaper's editorial board, which was critical of the then-governor.
On Dec. 9, 2008, Harris and Blagojevich were arrested. Harris was taken to the FBI's Chicago office, where he was first asked about the Chicago Tribune matter. Once the questioning turned to the appointment of the Senate Seat, Harris refused to talk.
He eventually agreed to cooperate with the federal government and "was extremely forthcoming," the Review Board notes in its report, saying that Harris' "cooperation was instrumental in obtaining the conviction" against Blagojevich.
Harris entered into an agreement with the government, in which he pled guilty of conspiracy to commit solicitation in exchange for his testimony against Blagojevich and a recommendation for a lenient sentence.
Based on his cooperation with authorities, a federal judge sentenced Harris to 10 days in prison and two years of supervised release, as well as a $1,000 fine and a $100 special assessment.
Blagojevich was eventually convicted of more than a dozen criminal counts involving the attempted sale of Obama's Senate seat, as well as lying to federal officials and engaging in illegal shakedowns for campaign contributions, and was sentenced to 14 years in prison.
One of the more-well known recorded conversations over the scheme that was presented during Blagojevich's criminal trials included the ousted governor telling his onetime deputy governor that "I've got this thing and it's (expletive) golden … I'm not just giving it up for (expletive) nothing" in regards to Obama's Senate seat.
In Harris' disciplinary proceedings before the ARDC, a panel of the Hearing Board determined that his crime "reflects adversely on the lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness or fitness as a lawyer" in violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct.
Finding that Harris' "conduct brought the legal professional into disrepute and caused the public to doubt the integrity of the bar," the Hearing Board recommended Harris be suspended from the practice of law for three years.
The administrator of the ARDC filed exceptions to the Hearing Board's report, pushing for Harris' disbarment.
A panel of the Review Board disagreed and affirmed the Hearing Board's recommendation, saying that a three-year suspension "recognizes the seriousness of the misconduct and adequately serves purposes of discipline."
"Unquestionably, [Harris'] misconduct in knowingly and actively participating in a criminal conspiracy with the sitting governor of Illinois is serious and warrants a severe sanction," the board's report states. "Given that [Harris] was an attorney at the time of his participation in public corruption, his conduct is 'particularly reprehensible.'"
The Review Board, however, wrote in its report that while Harris' conduct warrants discipline, "we believe that [Harris'] actions were a blemish in an otherwise commendable career and we believe that, after serving a period of suspension, [Harris] will not again be before this Board."
The panel of the Review Board was made up of Robert M. Henderson, Claire A. Manning and Keith E. Roberts Jr.

If you are thinking about filing for bankruptcy in the East Orange area, you should be careful about what you do in the months leading up to it. Though you expect for it put an end to the nonstop creditor harassment you are experiencing, lighten your financial burden and make it easier for you to sleep easier at night, the wrong moves could result in the dismissal of your case. Mistakes can also lead to complications that prevent you from receiving the full benefits of Bankruptcy protection.
Filing for bankruptcy? Know traits of Chapter 7 and Chapter 13
When it comes to personal bankruptcy, there are two chapters that almost all people will utilize: Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. The differences between these types of bankruptcies are important. When you consider that nearly three-quarters of filings are Chapter 7, and the other quarter of filings are Chapter 13, you can probably guess that income is a big factor in determining which bankruptcy you file.

So, what would you do with £10 million to conquer some of the world's biggest challenges. That was the question posed by the BBC tonight when they launched the concept of the Longitude prize, a historic award that had previously achieved revolutions such as putting Greenwich and worldwide timekeeping on the map, thanks to a grant given to a carpenter and watchmaker, who succeeded in making a watch that would keep time at sea.
The Longitude is essentially about humanity and sustaining humanity for the future. The biggest issue facing us and our outlook for the future is climate change so this featured highly in the options. I was tempted to vote for the search to find a carbon neutral power for flight, as planes do the most harm to our environment. However, the winner of The Longitude prize would only have to enable a flight capable of a distance from London to Edinburgh, which I don't think is enough to make a significant change. I am also unconvinced that aviation companies would be falling over themselves to adopt this new energy as there would surely be significant cost implications and we all know how squeezed profit margins are on airlines already. For this work it would take some Government intervention to put pressure on airlines to adopt the cleaner fuel.
I voted for a sustainable and nourishing food source that could be easily farmed, highly nutritious and wouldn't cause pollution and waste to create it. The current alternatives are insects – which actually looked quite good and ticked all the boxes in terms of nutrition. For 1kg of beef, 22kg of cow feed needs to be produced – for 1kg in insect meat, only 2.2kg feed is required to give to the insects. I can also see insect farming providing a source of income for farmers in the developing world too. This idea had been developed in the Netherlands and they said the challenge to adoption in the West is changing people's mind set. I think Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall should step forward and come up with some cunning insect recipes – it would all get us grazing on grasshoppers in no time. The other option is GM food, which has received so much bad press it is hard to understand whether it is good for us or not, apparently it is and is far more nutritious. Whoever wins the prize if food becomes the goal will ave the power o improve people's diets world-wide, help to eliminate the harmful consequences of malnutrition, such as rickets and scurvey and help those countries who suffer from famine because they are unable to source nutritious food. It may also provide a new source of income and transform farming and agriculture plus reduce pollution as it has to be a sustainable food solution.
If you live in the UK and want to cast your vote, visit the website on the Longitude Prize.

The politicians have no idea of the specific reasons individual voters put them first on the ballot paper; according to the Opposition, it could be due to their sex appeal. It's unlikely that any voter even agrees one hundred per cent with the policies of the candidate to whom they gave their first preference. When a party gains a majority, they have the support of the major part of the electorate to form a government and take their policies and formulate legislation which is then taken to the parliament to be voted upon. Being elected does not give the government an automatic right to introduce policies without the consent of the parliament. What any of the elected representatives, from whichever parties they come, have a right to do, is present legislation to the parliament and using their numbers, get it through the two Houses. Naturally, a party with a majority support will have the numbers for much of their policy. Those who do not have the numbers have no hope of getting legislation passed, whilst those that can gain the numbers do. Their policy platform is mainly a means to get elected. In practice, political representatives can do whatever they like once they get into power, provided that they have the numbers to pass the legislation in both Houses of Parliament. The only problem is that if the electorate do not like the legislation or if they promise certain things and don't deliver, then they can be held to account at the next election. When politicians talk of mandates as justification for their actions, I know that they have a low opinion of the voters' firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434369190746987531.post-19462737587888215302013-08-27T12:20:31.253+10:002013-08-27T12:20:31.253+10:00http://www.keepaustraliafishing.com.au/ gives you ...http://www.keepaustraliafishing.com.au/ gives you an idea of where the fishing issues come from.

That said, although I think mandate is crock, consider this:

Is it worse to have a mandate you completely fail to fulfill (Rudd on the greatest moral challenge of climate change circa 2007-2010)?
Or, is it worse to achieve something comparable to your original mandate but modified to reflect political reality (Gillard, pricing carbon)?

Personally I think the former is worse for a politician.

I'm so excited for Fall. It's coming up soon and it's my favorite season. It is the season of my birthday, cooler weather and sweaters. Plus I am over being hot this summer.
Bella is loving third grade so far. I'm so glad. It always makes me a little nervous when a new school year starts because I want to know she will like her teacher and have friends in her class. She always ends up having a great year but I'm a mom so I still worry a little. This year seems to be going well too so I'm happy that she's happy.
I'm so excited that they announced that the Mindy Project will be starting on September 15th on Hulu. I'm so glad Hulu picked it up after Fox canceled it. It's one of my favorite shows and I was so disappointed it was canceled. Thank you Hulu for rescuing it.
I'm really excited we have so,e home projects going on. Bella's playroom has a glassed in porch attached to it which let's in a ton of heat. It's annoyed us since we moved in over 4 years ago.

Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we will highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games. We had a busy Sunday slate with 11 games taking place, as no games will be played tonight on Christmas Eve.
Although the Dallas Mavericks lost in overtime to the Portland Trail Blazers, Mavericks first round draft pick Luka Doncic has been playing great as of late and he nailed an absolutely insane three-pointer in the corner to force overtime. He finished the game with 23 points, 11 rebounds and six assists. The Chicago Bulls defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in the tanking bowl, as the Cavaliers now hold the worst record in the Eastern Conference and are tied with the Phoenix Suns for the worst record in the NBA.
Let's take a look at the recap for NBA games on Sunday, December 23rd.Editor's Note: Get our full-season NBA and DFS Premium Pass for 50% OFF.

Clutch Curry
Earlier, we discussed Doncic's corner three-pointer to force overtime in the Dallas/Portland game, but the heroics were continued with Stephen Curry's clutch late shot to secure the win for the Golden State Warriors over the Los Angeles Clippers 129-127.
Curry drove through the lane with four seconds remaining and lofted up an off-balance shot that fell through the hoop with less than a second left in the game. The basket lifted Curry to 42 points in the game, which included six three-pointers. He also added six rebounds.
Watching a healthy Curry is unlike many other feelings, and he is back to playing like an MVP.
Deandre Ayton Not Playing Like A Rookie
The first overall draft pick in last summer's draft has been extremely impressive this season, but last night's performance by Deandre Ayton stood out to me.
Ayton put up 26 points and 18 rebounds on 13-for-16 shooting. He tacked on three blocks and two steals, while logging 32 minutes. The big man has been on a tear for the majority of December with double-doubles in nine of his 12 games, as he has seen his minutes in the rotation be boosted over the past week.
Those who took a chance on him in their drafts are reaping the benefits, and those who don't own him should target him, as he will be a great addition to your roster for the remainder of the season, regardless of the Suns being a horrible team in reality.
Alex Len Provides Cheap Production
From a current Phoenix Sun to a former member of the organization, Alex Len has been putting up consistent numbers since joining the Atlanta Hawks. In a road win over the Detroit Pistons yesterday, Len notched a double-double with 15 points and 17 rebounds in 35 minutes, while having to guard both Andre Drummond and Blake Griffin.
The Pistons' front court duo combined for just 28 points and 22 rebounds, as the Hawks dominated the paint by outscoring them down low 52-40.
Len has received at least 30 minutes of playing time in three games this year and has posted a double-double in two of those games. He has seen an uptick in playing time this week, with two games of 21 minutes and then last night's contest of 35 minutes.
If Len can maintain his role in the rotation with around 30 minutes coming his way then he should be able to produce enough to make fantasy owners happy with their waiver wire addition.

Thanks in large part to our advocacy, the Westside Transect is a new concept for Central Oregon that is being used to plan development on Bend's western edge where we are at most risk of wildfire sweeping into town from the Cascade Mountain forests.
What can we learn from California's devastating wildfires?
More information about the Tree Kill Along Highway 20
More than 100 of the iconic, old-growth ponderosa pine trees which greet us when we arrive back into Central Oregon from the Santiam Pass or the Metolius River Basin are dying because they were sprayed with a deadly herbicide by the Forest Service and ODOT over the course of three consecutive years.
Groundbreaking new protections proposed for 717 acres west of Bend
Last night, LandWatch advocated for wildlife habitat and protection from wildfire risk adjacent to Shevlin Park by supporting an application for a new zone in Deschutes County. The proposal to create a Westside Transect zone will extend to the county the 2016 UGB concept of tapering density as the city boundary nears the forest where there is higher risk of wildfire.

Stop Using Black People As Props
Michael Cohen's opening statement today at the House Oversight Committee hearing was stunning. "I am ashamed because I know what Mr. Trump is. He is a racist. He is a conman. And he is a cheat," Cohen said. Cohen added that Trump "once asked me if I could name a country run by a black person that wasn't a shithole. This was when Barack Obama was president of the United States."
Yes, we all knew that Trump is a racist, but this public confirmation from Trump's own lawyer and fixer, who worked with Trump for a decade, reinforces all the other facts and evidence at our disposal. Apparently, however, this was too much for Republicans, who have, sadly, invested their careers behind a man they surely must know is not worthy to occupy the Oval Office.
Republican Mark Meadows of North Carolina tried to rebut Cohen's argument that Trump is a racist by trotting out Lynne Patton, a black woman and Trump's family wedding planner, who was appointed to a top HUD position with no HUD experience. Patton was not allowed to speak or answer questions. She was just there for show.
This is outrageous but not surprising. For the record, one black person does not negate Donald Trump's decades of racism, his housing discrimination, his lies about the Central Park 5, his lies about President Obama's birth certificate, his racist 2016 campaign, and his continued attacks on black leaders and black people. But this is the type of silly political theater that one might expect from a Republican Party that has 17 members on the House Oversight Committee (15 men and two women) and all of them are white. Meanwhile the Democrats have 12 members of color on the committee, 11 women and 7 women of color. Many of them were rightly offended by Meadows's stunt.
As Rep. Brenda Lawrence (D-MI) said, "to prop up one member of our entire race of black people" to say that nullifies Trump's history of racism is "totally insulting."
Later, Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) got Cohen to acknowledge that someone (Trump) could deny rental units to blacks, lead the birther movement, refer to black countries as shitholes, call white supremacists fine people, have a black friend and still be racist.
And then Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) argued that "just because someone has a person of color, a black person, working for them does not mean they aren't racist and...the fact someone would actually use a prop, a black woman in this chamber, in this committee, is alone racist in itself."
This did not sit well with Rep. Meadows, who accused Tlaib of violating committee rules about insulting another member. A contentious debate about House rules and decorum followed, but Tlaib's larger point remains true. Having a black friend does not negate your racism, and bringing out a black person as a political stunt to rebut decades of evidence of Trump's racism is, itself, a form of racism.
Black people are not props. Stop using us to prove your alleged lack of racism.

Energy is something that many people want be do not understand how it is created. If you learn to create it from within, you will be able to sustain that energy level in your life. When you turn to outside sources such as caffeine and sugar, you will find yourself going back time after time to try to sustain that level of energy in life. If you follow some of these principles in your life, you will be able to create the energy needed from within.
You can change your Energy output!
The emotional energy of the world is flat-lining. Distractions are causing daily issues with our lack of focus and frustrations of supplying the daily energy needed to perform at a level of high performance.
Let me share with you my story, I will never forget this date November 18, 2002. This is a picture of me around that time. I decided it was time for a change because I was 75 lbs overweight!
My energy level was very low and my stress level very high! Not a good combination with a family with heart issues! The demands of family and business were creating lack of sleep. I knew I had to make a change and I decided that day I was going to change the way I felt!
The second secret of the highest performing achievers is they master their body! Physiology is all about "Am I fully rested and hydrated?"
Am I sleeping, eating, exercising, hydrating, gesturing, and speaking with passion to have the energy I deserve?"
My journey started when I decided to hire a personal trainer to help me on my path to better health and fitness. I started a regular exercise program and tracked my progress daily.
Every Monday was weigh in day and I documented my weight on my tracking sheet. If I had a week I increased my weight, I made sure the following week that I changed my eating habits. I never bought into the concept of dieting, instead I decided to call it a lifestyle change for my eating regime. I changed the consumption of food intake and drank more water and less carbonated drinks.
Guess what happened? In less than eleven months I lost 75 lbs.! How did this happen? It was by a daily, weekly, and monthly change in habits. Slow and steady wins the race. I realized it did not take long to change if I was disciplined to follow the plan. It took me over 15 years to put on the weight but less than 11 months to take it off!
Where does our energy come from? It comes from inside of us, a mentor of mine Brendon Burchard sums it up best with this quote: "The power plant doesn't have energy, it generates it." Let me share with you some additional habits you can implement to increase your energy. Rest and exercise is the number one action you can take.
You must exercise three to four times per week, at a minimum of 30 minutes each session. All the professional advice recommends seven to nine hours per night. This allows your body to recover from the day. Be sure to walk outside 30 minutes to add vitamin D in your daily routine and if possible mediate each day for twenty minutes.
The next key area is nutrition.
-Take a multivitamin as well a Vitamin D and Omega 3 fish oils.
-Drink your healthy shake for breakfast and snacks.
-Drink half your body weight in ounces of water and minimize your sugary drinks.
-Limit your alcohol use or get rid of it all together and limit your caffeine intake.
Let me share some daily energizing tips also. Every fifty minutes stand up, move and stretch. Focus on speaking and gesturing with passion. When possible stay standing instead of sitting all the time. Make people smile and laugh more often. You have heard the saying it takes less muscles to smile than it does to grin. Let's try it…Come on you can do it smile at me…
Remember to be present in all your daily conversations.
Sound too hard to implement? Just take one from each group and get started you can add more as you progress. These are just some quick energy tips.
If you are looking to take your life to the next level of high performance, go to GoAscend.biz/hpc-request Fill out the strategy session and I will provide you a one hour FREE coaching to help you get started on your journey.

We are passing the most spectacular stretch of 17-Mile Drive, where the waves crash on Seal Rock and the seals loll on Bird Rock, when David Dilworth brings up the man who died after licking his golf ball, or some such thing.
Dilworth has not been having the best of days in his bid to convince a golf lover--me--that we are treading on habitat so endangered that it's time to stop building new courses here. His impromptu tour could not be expected to turn up any of those famous and elusive California red-legged frogs, but we've found no pools of water either in what are supposed to be wetlands. And we're not even sure we're seeing any rare Yadon's piperia orchids amid the towering Monterey pines. Except for those trees, he's basically been whiffing, in the parlance of the game, in his bid to demonstrate the environmental hazards that he and like-minded souls are hoping will block the course being proposed by Clint Eastwood, Arnold Palmer and their partners in the Pebble Beach Co.
So he finally mentions the late George Prior, the 30-year-old U.S. Navy lieutenant who in 1982 played for three straight days at the Army Navy Country Club in Arlington, Va., and developed headaches, nausea and a rash across his stomach before his organs failed. "His golf ball," says Dilworth, "was covered with pesticides. And that's sort of symbolic of the hidden harms of golf--it was invisible to him and it killed him."
There are many other golf haters in the world, of course. Dilworth just happens to be one in the place aficionados consider their mecca, the Monterey Peninsula, whose waterside courses include two of the top-rated ones in the country, Pebble Beach and Cypress Point. If the Pebble Beach Co. has its way, 18 more holes soon will be added.
A computer software developer-turned-full-time environmental activist, Dilworth has been fighting that prospect since 1992, when a Japanese group had the land, and now with its American celebrity ownership led by Eastwood, Palmer and Peter Ueberroth. When we first met in December 2004--and he offered a tour--he already had filed a 990-page objection to the county's environmental impact report, and soon after would go to court when the local county commission, as expected, sided with Pebble Beach Co. He also was readying his forces, and a Mark Twain impersonator, for the most crucial confrontation, before the California Coastal Commission.
"I don't hate golf," he insists. "I don't like golf courses."
So I give him the test, questions about whether he views caddies as exploited and about astronaut Alan Shepard's golf shot on the moon. That's when he tells me about "GAGM," as in "gag 'em," the Global Anti-Golf Movement.
"Yeah, you're a golf hater," I say, though, in the back of my mind, I can't help thinking that, given enough time, I might save him from his golf-hating ways.
You know 'em when you see 'em. They're the ones who "Amen!" comedian George Carlin's rants about golf as "an arrogant, elitist . . . meaningless, mindless . . . boring game" and about turning golf courses over to the homeless. Their hatred is visceral for all that senseless chasing of a silly white ball by, as Carlin calls us, "dorks in hats and checkered pants."
The enmity grows exponentially when you add environmental zeal. I once was at a conference of wildlife filmmakers in the Tetons that included a reception at the Jackson Hole Golf and Tennis Club. As we peered out at the first hole and the snow-capped mountains, one of the filmmakers went into a rage. "Do you know what I see out there?" he said. "I see poisonous fertilizer seeping into the water, I see animal passageways obliterated, I see . . . "
"You know what I see?" I said when he was done. "A three-wood off the tee, then a soft nine-iron to the green."
The bystanders had to separate me and that hater, who could not fathom that I might get as much pleasure on this manicured landscape as he does in the untamed wilderness. At play was an ideological divide over the varying meanings of "green," the rightful perks of wealth and to what degree others should be able to dictate what we can do with our own land.
I was telling this story much later at a course back East when a sympathetic player told me if I really wanted to experience such passions I needed to check out the "grand slam" of golf disputes. "It's got trees, it's got water, it's got plant life--some kind of orchid--and it's got wildlife, if you can call frogs wildlife," the guy said, "and it's got fanatics like you wouldn't believe."
And that's how I first heard of Mr. Dilworth.
I do not exactly lie to him before our first encounter. I simply omit a detail about my presence on the peninsula--that I'm here to play a charity tournament on Pebble and two other courses. I fear he may suspect something, however, when I say I have to be back at the Inn at Spanish Bay by 9 a.m.
"I get up at four," he says, suggesting that I be down in the lobby at 6 a.m. He picks me up in a cluttered old Honda. On the dash is a manual 951 pages thick, "Golf Course Management and Construction: Environmental Issues," and it's not from any green group. It's the United States Golf Assn.'s guide, meaning he understands a basic rule of any war--know thine enemy.
He appears to be in his mid-50s, with ample gray in his beard and bushy hair, but he won't tell me his exact age or much about himself other than that he grew up in "Pacific Stump," his name for Pacific Grove, the city of 15,000 at the northern edge of 17-Mile Drive, and ran cross-country in high school. That comes up when he says "we used to run right here" as we reach Pescadero Canyon, a wooded area on the ocean side of Highway 1.
"You are now surrounded . . . by virgin forest," he says as he leads me into the thicket, past dozens of small green, red and white flags stuck in the ground. Each presumably represents an endangered orchid, except he's not certain that the brownish stalks we see are remnants of the ones listed as imperiled by the federal government in 1998, the same year Dilworth founded HOPE, Helping Our Peninsula's Environment, the nonprofit he heads to this day. He says he was offered a healthy chunk of change for his software business and doesn't have to ask for donations; "people just send us money."
"That was like a coup for you, ammunition," I say of the orchid.
"It was," he says. "See this?" We're at a tree seedling. "That's a baby Monterey pine," and there are a slew of them, a sign of a forest vigorously regenerating itself while serving as a home for horned owls and deer and, in the past, lion and black bear. But then he asks, "See this stump," pointing at a dead pine where, he says, "25 feet up, baby woodpeckers would stick their nose out and 'mom' would fly around. . . . One day we came by, the tree was just cut down. And that's sort of a metaphor for the Pebble Beach Co.'s ignorant destruction of wildlife habitat."
Then I ask if this is where they want to build the new course--and he says no. This had been the site in 1992, under the Japanese ownership that also hoped to go private with the Pebble Beach course and to develop a 400-lot subdivision on the company's unused property. That didn't have a prayer of getting by the Coastal Commission, but Eastwood and his partners were viewed as heroes when they bought out the Japanese group for $820 million in 1999. They then announced their proposal to put aside 800 acres as open space, develop 33 residential lots and add 160 hotel rooms and suites, a new equestrian center and the eighth 18-hole course in the peninsula's Del Monte forest. They did use poetic license when they took the plan, known as Measure A, before Monterey County voters in 2000, billing their expansion as "Forest Preservation and Development Limitations." It sold, winning approval on 63.5% of the ballots. Of course, that was before an environmental impact report determined that the plan would require removing 17,969 trees.
Still, it seems that those trees are not in the enchanted forest Dilworth is showing me--this is the prime area Clint proposes to preserve. But the Japanese plans "could be revived," Dilworth argues, "so this is still threatened."
How could I bust him for putting his spin on reality when I had not told him that I am, in essence, the enemy, a lifelong golf nut in town to take divots out of his beloved home turf? I feel that we're even. So it's time for our quiz.
I ask what he feels when he sees golfers in Italian knit shirts. "I never really watch golfers," he insists. I ask if he views caddies as an exploited class, or as people with employment opportunities. "Certainly, jobs," he swears, though he understands why "other people," such as the Japan-based Global Anti-Golf Movement crowd, view the game as "the poster child for what's wrong with our social ills, the rich versus the poor."
But I get him with Alan Shepard, asking whether the astronaut's six-iron shot on the moon was good fun or a sacrilege. He recalls how Shepard lived right here at the end of his life. They met at a reception, and the first American in space was "very brusque," he says. "Maybe Shepard knew exactly who I was, that I'm trying to stop Pebble Beach company from destroying the forest."
I detect a chance to bring him to his senses only when we drive past the short Peter Hay Golf Course, a pitch-and-putt track named for a longtime pro at Pebble. Dilworth confesses that once, years ago, he and a few friends tried it out, "laughing so hard at how hilariously awful we were at this. Especially me. Half the time, we'd swing and miss."
I tell him that's the essence of the game, being humbled and humiliated.
Or dead, he reminds me--citing the case of the Navy golfer.
We make one more stop, at a wooded patch that the Pebble Beach Co. hopes to level for a new driving range. We're looking for the pond that forms after a rain--evidence that these are wetlands--but there is none today. "You win some, you lose some," I say.
He drops me at my hotel and says, "Have a good game."
During my tournament, I'm grouped with a real estate man from Texas who tells me he once wrote a letter to George Carlin after hearing the comedian's routine on golf courses. "I said, 'You probably get $500,000 per performance. Why don't you buy a few yourself and give them to the homeless?' "
I also go see Pebble Beach's in-house historian, Neal Hotelling, who notes that Pebble was slated to be a real-estate tract in 1915 until developer Samuel Morse had second thoughts and started buying back lots to build the cliff-side course that people today happily pay nearly $500 per round to play.
I squeeze in a visit with Eastwood's friend Alan Williams, who is spearheading the drive for a new course. He and Eastwood hooked up in 1986 when Carmel's actor-turned-mayor decided to buy the Mission Ranch inn after plans were made to tear it down to build condos. Eastwood used to go there during his days at Ft. Ord and "thought it was worth preserving," Williams recalls.
We meet at another of their projects, the mountaintop Tehama Golf Club, inland in Carmel, where wild oaks adorn $2-million lots. Williams says Tehama is a Native American word for "abundance of nature."
A realpolitik sort, he doesn't argue when I raise an eyebrow at the local referendum portraying their Pebble Beach project as preservation. "You're right," he says, "it's a development plan." But some developers still consider themselves caretakers of their land--and it's no fun being demonized as environmental rapists. Williams says they've been through "18 or 19" designs for the course to "dogleg around" wetlands and the area where their consultants found the two rare frogs. Even so, the Coastal Commission had just sent Monterey County officials a letter cautioning that local approvals are meaningless if the project site is deemed an Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Area.
Then there are the "do-gooders," Williams says. "I mean, we have one guy who wrote 900 pages."
"Dilworth, yeah."
But the demonizing cuts both ways, as I discover when I speak with Dilworth's leading critic, Paul Miller, publisher of the Carmel Pine Cone, a strong supporter of the Pebble project. After Dilworth filed his environmental objections, Miller skewered them as "twice as long as 'Moby Dick'" in a piece headlined "Dilworth's epic warns of hotel hair dryer danger" based on a section about the supposed health dangers of electromagnetic radiation that suggested "even a hair dryer can cause a high level."
Yet when I call Miller, that sense of humor is not in evidence. Never mind that I'm merely trying to infiltrate the psyche of a golf hater, he flies off the handle when I mention that I've spoken to Dilworth.
"He's a crazy . . . a local rabble-rouser who has no credibility," the Carmel publisher says. "I suppose he told you he has a group. . . . We were able to locate . . . one nut with seven backers. . . . So we go back to Dilworth. 'Do you have a degree in chemistry?' 'No.' 'Do you have a college degree?' 'No, I took a few courses and didn't like it.' . . . This would be a good story: how one person can thwart the majority for years. . . . "
Dilworth was more charitable when I asked him about the publisher's lambasting. He conceded that he got carried away in his epic filing--he'd been compiling a "Scientific Encyclopedia of Environmental Impacts" and threw all sorts of material in there, such as the bit about hair dryers. "It's trivial compared to other impacts," he agreed, "and Miller correctly picked up on that."
After our first meeting, he kept me updated on his campaign to block the golf course through e-mails that ended, "May the Forest be with you." We met for breakfast in Pacific Grove when I returned a year later, in December 2005, to play the same charity tournament, except that time I let him see my Bobby Jones shirt with little golfers on the collar.
His beard was gone, but he'd kept the drooping mustache, like actor Wilford Brimley's. He talked more about himself too, recalling how he and other kids learned to do back flips on sand dunes where the Pebble Beach Co. later built the Spanish Bay resort. Those who assume he's some wimpy hippie have no notion of his daredevil past: how he windsurfed long distances--once 26 miles from Santa Cruz to Monterey--set hang-gliding records in Europe, and raced and designed Formula B cars. It's true he never finished college. "I can't learn that slow," he says.
Those who revile him might be surprised, too, that his father was a West Point graduate. His dad, who taught high school math, also caddied in his youth and was a golfer. When breakfast was done, we headed out to his "new" car, a '90 Lexus, where he showed me a set of old clubs that belonged to his mom, a nurse. They were in an ancient canvas golf bag with two lady MacGregor woods and a rusted two-iron probably from the '40s. But what caught my eye were two putters, one with tape on the club face, as if someone was testing it to find the sweet spot, the other with a mirror affixed, the work of a tinkerer trying to invent a way to line up the putter with the cup.
"Golf is an easy target," he said. "It doesn't just destroy the trees, it takes away all the soils and replaces it with nonnative rocks, nonnative soils, nonnative grasses. . . . " He's explaining why he calls golf courses "green graveyards." But all I can think of is how those putters were tinkered with not so long ago.
The chairman of the California Coastal Commission is announcing the next speakers, "Bill Connors . . . Samuel Clemens." I wonder whether Mark Twain's pen name registers with anyone else.
It's March 9, 2006, and we're hours into its long-awaited hearing. Hundreds of partisans pack the Monterey Hyatt. The corridor outside is packed too, mostly with save-the-forest protest displays.
The commission staff says many issues before it generate high emotions, including proposals for Little League fields, which bring out scores of kids in their uniforms. But Sierra Club veterans count this among their top three causes in the coastal zone, up there with the Hearst Ranch development proposal that also included golf courses. "We've seen some horrible things, like the San Onofre nuclear power plant," says Mark Massara, who heads the Sierra Club's coastal campaign, "but there weren't 17,000 trees cut down."
Massara, a surfing lawyer with blond hair down his back, is the leader of the organized opposition, the one who lobbies commissioners face to face and contests the Pebble Beach proposal point by point. Dilworth is the irritant on the fringe--the one who delivers not only scientific treatises but also guerrilla theater. So he's come with a certificate for Peter Ueberroth, a "Whopper Award" for having once said, "We are not developers." He also has his Mark Twain impersonator poised backstage.
But the other side gets its say first. Eastwood kicks it off, amiably recounting how he'd found the commission's staff report "very interesting" and "very biased." The staff has again described the project area as environmentally sensitive habitat. Eastwood asks only for "a fair hearing." Translation: The appointed commissioners have the votes that count, not those zealous staffers.
Then comes Ueberroth, the former baseball commissioner and Olympics czar. He recounts his 40 years swimming in these waters and says "the ocean is much better, it's recovering, because of you." He also notes that Pebble Beach Co. gives $5 million a year to charity.
They leave it to Anthony Lombardo, the company's chief attorney, to dismiss the dire claims about Monterey pines, saying they are in fact "the most populous tree on the planet." The orchids? He shows slides of them growing like weeds by roadways. And the frogs? That's an amazing tale.
The day before, the commission had staged a bus tour of the project area and stopped by the spot where Pebble Beach's scientists discovered the two critters a few years back--right by the current equestrian center, near foamy runoff that, for all we know, is half horse urine. I happened to be sitting in front of one of those consulting scientists, so I jokingly asked why he didn't "disappear" the things. "A million dollars," he said, and told me about the Northern California developer who was so fined after trying to cover up the discovery on his own site of the red-legged frogs, which were abundant in the 1800s until found to be a delicacy.
Now a drawling voice calls out in the hearing room, "Steamboat a comin'!" It's the fully garbed Mark Twain imitator, there to testify how these creatures made his career with his story, "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," about a mining camp contest in which one fellow cons another by weighing down a prized frog with buckshot. The actor doing Twain says he's just spoken to Big Momma Red-Leg, a descendant of that very frog, and she doesn't mind if snakes get some frogs--that's nature taking its course--but there's this other threat, from impertinent humans.
The crazy thing is, the frogs can thrive on golf courses. Parts of one near San Francisco had to be shut because so many were breeding in a water hazard. What's more, no one knows if Twain's story was based on real events. One official of the jumping frog contests that have become a tourist boon to Calaveras County--now using larger bullfrogs--opines that, "To say that the frog in the story is the red-legged frog is the same as saying the bread crumbs that Hansel and Gretel dropped were rye bread and not sourdough."
But the Twain impersonation gets the biggest applause of the day, and then Dilworth reminds the commission that no less than President Richard Nixon signed the Endangered Species Act.
After the hearing, I catch up with Clint and find him frustrated by everything from the frog testimony to how he and his partners were portrayed as greedy land abusers. He recalls caddying as a kid in Oakland and Orinda for 50 cents a loop, and how he started playing when he did TV's "Rawhide" and began getting tournament invites. He says he's given away more property for preservation than "anybody who is bitching" and compares the critics to a studio executive who would brag "about all the movies he's canceled. . . . Well, someday," Eastwood says, "you have to support something."
But it comes down to politics and votes. Pebble Beach Co. is not sure it has enough on the Coastal Commission. Acting through Monterey County officials, it pulls the application for approval of the voter-backed Measure A.
Which brings us to June 13.
Dilworth is glum. The common wisdom in the environmental community is that Clint and his people have put the golf course back on the table because they're confident their stars are finally aligned: California's actor-governor has replaced two coastal commissioners, and the assumption is that the newcomers are there to help Arnold Schwarzenegger help an old Hollywood friend. "That's OK. I've been fighting this for 15 years and I'll keep fighting it," Dilworth says.
This meeting is in Santa Rosa, hours from the focal point of the fight. It's harder to get the troops there and the session draws a much smaller crowd than at last year's Monterey hearing. Pebble Beach's famous owners stay away--they're leaving it to the lawyers. Dilworth doesn't bring Mark Twain either. His prized speaker this time is a high school girl from the peninsula who talks about her rapturous walks through the endangered woods, like the one he'd led me on when we first met 2 1/2 years ago. Dilworth videotapes the meeting, including his short turn at the podium, when he pleads, "This is a golf course they don't need. . . . Do not succumb to celebrity justice."
Under other circumstances, they might compromise. Pebble Beach would relinquish some of its wish list, such as the driving range. The problem is, the voter resolution was an all-or-nothing proposition. Neither side knows how the vote will go. Then, the first of the new commissioners tips his hand. He doesn't like that it's all or nothing. Like that, it's over, 8 to 4. Against.
As the Pebble lawyers huddle--they'll have to decide whether to take the commission to court--Dilworth hugs his crew and says in disbelief, "We won." He says he'll call to tell me where they'll celebrate, but my phone never rings that night.
"I lost your number," he apologized recently. But he said the real party is yet to come. In the forest. "I will not be surprised," he says, "if some tree hugging takes place."
I counteroffer. Let's meet somewhere else. I'll treat you to nine holes on that short Peter Hay course. Bring your putter with the mirrors.
David Dilworth replies, "Why not?"

Austerity rebrands itself for a new publicity drive
The government realised people are sick to the back teeth of austerity. But are they? Maybe people are just sick of hearing the word 'austerity'? Maybe – with a little bit of creative advertising – the government can carry on pushing the same cuts with no downside?
But is the media stupid or corrupt enough to fall for such an obvious ploy? Especially after falling for it every Autumn for the past few years?
There's no real impetus for the Tories to ever end austerity because they can just say they're ending it and get this much free press.
These same papers have reported austerity finishing for years. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me forever, print media's dying. pic.twitter.com/Zg561o8PlG
— John Shafthauer (@johnshafthauer) October 30, 2018
Scrutiny is over
Originally, the Tories considered a rename for austerity. The new names considered were:
- Star Bursterity.
- Diet Society.
- Public Service Pops.
After assessing the situation, they decided they could go bigger.
So the Tories said austerity is coming to an end. But reality – as in the actual figures – shows it isn't. They're still cutting shit. And what little extra they've given is a plaster on the gaping wound they've inflicted, or – YOU GUESSED IT – a tax cut for the fucking rich.
Rebrand awareness
And this is the rebrand we got.
'Austerity' is now 'no austerity'.
'Up' is 'down'.
'Journalism' is 'reprinting government propaganda but throwing in some puns and a photoshop for good measure'.
'Britain' is 'fucked'.
