SAN DIEGO, March 14, 2013 -- In an effort to help provide students with the important tools they need to achieve educational success, Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, today announced an expanded partnership with K to College to provide more than 200 students in San Diego with school supplies. The partnership has enabled K to College, a non-profit organization that operates the largest free school and dental supply program for underprivileged students in California, to continue expanding its services to Southern California.
Today, Huawei employees and K to College teamed up with incoming San Diego Unified School District Superintendent Designate Cindy Marten to kick off the expanded partnership by distributing school supplies to the entire student body of more than 200 students at Bayview Terrace Elementary School. This event served as a follow-up to the initial partnership event. In October 2012, about 25 Huawei employees distributed a $65-$70 grade appropriate school supply and dental kit to all 400 students at Scott Lane Elementary in Santa Clara.
"We are thrilled to continue growing our relationship with Huawei," said Benito Delgado-Olson , Executive Director of K to College. "K to College's commitment to provide every under-resourced student with the proper tools for school is only possible with the generosity of companies like Huawei, who choose to invest in their local and future workforce. That is why we are proud to have them as our first San Diego and statewide sponsor."
Huawei's sponsorship includes a monetary donation to K to College's School Supply Initiative and Dental Kit Initiative, which will allow the organization to expand its program throughout California and help students in need. More than 90 percent of Bayview Terrace Elementary School students are eligible for free and reduced-price meals, which is based on household family income levels.
"School supplies are important resources that students should all be able to equally access," said Jose Garcia , Director of Hardware Platforms at Huawei Device. "Huawei could not be more proud to broaden its partnership with K to College to help make sure our nation's future professionals are well equipped in the classroom."
The School Supply Initiative (SSI) helps address the issue that more than 3.5 million public school students in California are enrolled in the Free or Reduced Price Meal (FRPM) program, which has a 185% of poverty level income ceiling. This means that these students struggle to afford the basic yet critical instructional materials necessary for a quality education.
"It's often that our students and parents don't have access to school supplies and health resources. The liberal gifts being provided by Huawei and K to College will be incredibly valuable in helping students feel more prepared and motivated when they enter the classroom," Magdalena Tavasci , Principal of Bayview Terrace Elementary School, said.
"Providing our children with tools to learn and grow is critical to their success in the classroom and beyond," said Kevin Faulconer , City Councilmember for San Diego's beach and bay communities. "When we all work together, we can achieve results like this – a solution that helps ensure students don't have to go without the educational resources they need to succeed."

Former Scotland forward Jason White has confirmed his retirement, ending speculation of a possible return to Glasgow.
White, who played 77 Tests for Scotland including 19 as captain, has been without a club since French giants Clermont Auvergne did not renew his contract a few months ago.
The 34-year-old former Sale flank was strongly linked to a move back to Glasgow, but when talks of a return to his first professional club fell through he decided to call it quits.
"That's me finished," White told HeraldScotland.
"I won't be playing professional rugby again. We've just had a little girl, so I'm on daddy duty for a while, which is great.
"I was certainly keen on a move back to Glasgow and there were signs of interest at their end and a lot of talk in the press about it. Unfortunately, it never quite happened. I would have liked to go there, but it wasn't to be.
"Personally, I certainly want to carry on doing something in rugby, although I'm not really sure at what level. I would love to coach, but I look at the professional level and I think I don't want to sacrifice my family life to do that."

Decatur Memorial Hospital recognizes the fast, effective care in the ER is crucial to better outcomes. This is why DMH completely remodeled and restructured our Emergency Care Center area to better serve you. Within this new center, you will find 24 private rooms, a three-bed trauma area and the ability to perform bedside registration for those who require immediate attention.
Time matters most when it comes to emergency treatment. Statistics show that our skilled team of professionals provide fast, efficient care that far surpasses the national averages.
Time patients wait to see a physicians:
National Average - 46.5 minutes* Decatur Memorial Hospital - 19 minutes** *Statistics gathered from the Center for Disease Control 2003 National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey. **2003 Emergency Department Summary. Collected from 2003 data within DMH Emergency Care Center.
Access to state-of-the-art technology is the key to efficient emergency services. We have incorporated diagnostic technology including, LightSpeed CT and Diagnostic Digital X-ray within our new Emergency Care Center to improve the diagnosis of heart attack, stroke and traumatic injuries.
The Emergency Care Center at Decatur Memorial Hospital is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and accepts and treats patients of all ages and diagnoses. The nurses and doctors all receive specialized training for patients who present special challenges, such as pediatric and trauma patients. Our department recently received certification from Illinois Department Of Public Health as an Emergency Department with Pediatric Capabilities (EDPA). The Office of the Inspector General Of Illinois also cited us for our accomplishments in the area of identification and prevention of domestic violence.
Our monitoring and documentation systems are state-of-the-art technology, with the Emergency Care Center becoming the first department in the hospital to implement computerized documentation. Many xray and lab procedures can be completed right in the department, which keeps the patient from having to be moved from one area to another to get diagnostic studies done. Additionally, our nursing staff has become competent in cardiac monitoring techniques and respiratory care treatments so that they can deliver this care to our patients rather than wait for staff from other departments to arrive to perform these tasks.
Recently we have focused on shortening the length of stay in our department by fostering a more collegial relationship with the other nursing units in the hospital. Also we have added telephones and televisions to our treatment rooms to make the stay more comfortable and less isolating. In addition to our nursing and physician staff, we employ PALS (patient assistant liaison), Greeters, Secretaries, Nursing Technicians, and a Patient Relations Person to assist in keeping our patients and their families comfortable and informed during their stay with us.
We are very proud of the care we deliver and our constant focus is to improve this process.

If you had surgery tomorrow, would you hire a surgeon who hoped to get it right? Would you hire your surgeon just because they stayed at Holiday Inn Express last night? No, of course you wouldn't. The comparison between John McCain and Barack Obama brings out one stark difference: Experience.
I don't often find myself in agreement with Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton, but these senators were right when they said that Obama shows no readiness to lead. Obama has the experience of 140 working days in the U.S. Senate, while McCain has the experience of more than 50 years of selfless service to the United States. McCain understands the value of service to a cause greater than self, while Obama has spent his entire term in the senate running for president or signing books. McCain risked his political career to support a new strategy in Iraq. Obama snubbed injured veterans at Landstuhl Hospital because he wanted to make himself an international celebrity. McCain decisively criticized Russian leaders who invaded a sovereign democracy. Obama took three days and 300 advisors to make his decision. The comparison between these two candidates provides only one option for Americans who want low taxes, strong leadership and a secure America. John McCain.
Just a week or so ago, McCain choose his running mate, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Palin is an experienced executive and devoted mother. As the current governor of Alaska, she is an executive, with more experience than Obama and Biden combined. Obama is a former community organizer and Biden has been a senator since 1973.
The original maverick has chosen another true reformer to accompany him in his quest to change the city that has changed so many politicians. This past week, McCain put the traditional Washington crowd on notice – a change is coming. Sarah Palin stood up to the oil companies and fought against corruption in her own party. She blew the whistle on corruption, resulting in a $12,000 fine for the chairman of the Alaska Republican Party. In the 2006 primary, she took on the sitting Republican governor and won. This lady has a history of going against insurmountable odds and winning every fight. Just like John McCain, she is a straight talker and a true maverick. The men and women of this country would be right by themselves to make Sarah our next vice president.
The McCain-Palin ticket represents the experience of military and executive leadership. McCain is well known as a maverick – a man that you might not always agree with, but one who will never just tell you what you want to hear. He is experienced, honest and ready to lead. I'm not voting for a guy who's best credential is that he stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night. I am voting for John McCain. I'm not voting for a guy who's best credential is that he stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Great little BCD knife. Very sharp, seems well constructed. FAST delivery!

About Me Beginner
Having at least one knife, readily accessible, is an essential piece of gear. I bought this knife as a "starter" until I determine what's the best type to have. It's relatively inexpensive, and it's compact size makes finding an appropriate place for mounting on your BCD easy. Since I am left handed, I mounted it with the clip on the right shoulder strap of my BCD. This way I can reach across with my left hand and remove the knife without having to switch hands. For right handed divers, the hose mount may be your best location. The blade locks into the sheath and disengages easily. The blade felt relatively sharp out of the box, but I'll give a few strokes with the stone anyway. Eventually it will be my backup knife, but for now, it will serve it's purpose well.

Great little knife
By Dalxray
from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
A small knife which attaches easily to your BCD, it also comes with a separate clip for attaching to a hose. The knife comes out of its sheath easily when you want it but also has a well-designed locking clip, I don't think it would fall out accidentally even if it got snagged on something. Might be a bit difficult to use with heavy gloves or mitts on due to small size, but overall a nice, unobtrusive addition to your BC.

Last week I wrote a strongly worded and widely read piece: "The New York Times Abandons the Story of the Century and Joins the Energy and Climate Ignorati."
I received a great deal of support for the analysis from of number of people, even someone who works at the Times. But there was some blowback for my call to cancel your subscription to the paper.
Of course, Big Media seems impervious to outside criticism — indeed, often wears it as a badge of honor ("if everybody's criticizing us we must be doing something right"). Maybe nothing can be done.
In the case of my post, the blowback came from Charlie Petit at MIT's Knight Science Journalism Tracker. Petit is someone I respect — he "has been on the science and technology beat since 1970."
We exchanged e-mails and then had a phone conversation. He retracted his most strongly worded comment, and I decided to modify what I had written. We both agreed that blogging without an editor has many benefits, but it does have costs.
He gave me some very positive words of encouragement for Climate Progress — and some advice, too, which hopefully will improve my blogging in the months to come.
One thing I realized in rereading my earlier post is that I didn't put what I was suggesting into the full context of what has happened in the past five years. So I added this at the end:
The NYT remains a great and important paper in many respects. Its coverage this year on climate science (by Gillis) and fracking have been exceptional. That said, I do think that if climate is your priority issue, as it is for many readers, and if you are frustrated at the poor coverage of this issue at the Times, if you have tried letters to the editor and to the ombudsman, as I've suggested in the past, all to no avail, if you worry about the apparent influence of fossil fuel companies on the Times, then canceling your subscription is one of the few ways you have left to send a message.
A number of sources have confirmed, as a 37-year EPA veteran reported here, the Oil & Gas "industry is targeting the Times" because its fracking series "had an unprecedented role in prodding EPA into action."
Certainly it appears that the business side of the NY Times has warmed up to the fossil fuel industry as part of its effort to find a viable business model in the Internet age:
- The New York Times sells its integrity to ExxonMobil with front-page ad that falsely asserts "Today's car has 95% fewer emissions than a car from 1970″
- Media stunner: New York Times partners with Shell Oil to peddle elite access
So what do you think a climate hawk should do, since letters and emails don't work?
32 Responses to Should You Cancel Your Subscription to the NY Times, and If Not, What Should a Climate Hawk Do?
I think it makes only sense to "cancel" something, when you provide a better alternative and in general are more constructive.
Not every single article is bad in the NYT, SPIEGEL etc, but many climate science article or how things are moderated in the times of astro-turfing.Calling for cancellation of INSERT_MEDIA_COMPANY_HERE or not voting for INSERT_RANDOM_PRESIDENTIAL_CANDIDATE_HERE is a strongly emotionally driven call. I understand this and i feel sometimes the same, but as long there is no alternative, and even when the opposite is so bad it can not even be compared, such calls are not the best way to go.
Maybe start some kind of initiative, voice your opinions and lay out in detail what is exactly wrong and what is at stake. So before i would call for cancellation i would call to correct mistakes and use other journalists in the future.
The problem with what you suggest is that over the years many of us have written to complain to the NYT about its awful, inaccurate, unbalanced, biased and damaging portrayal of climate change and the certain disaster humanity faces if we don't all pull together and get to work on this problem.
The NYT, by its actions, has been a significant delayer. They are as guilty as ExxonMobil, Shell, Chevron, BP, Halliburton, and the Koch brothers.
You are probably right, i do not have ANY subscriptions… and on second thoughts and reading more comments i think it is ok to cancel subscription.
Joe, this is a bold move you are making because readers will take notice and likely act as you are suggesting.
However, your, and our problem with New York Times reporting on climate change/ climate chaos, has a recent history and since June, a new Executive Editor has been named. That is worthy of consideration.
Jill Abramson is the first woman to be named to that post in the paper's entire 169 year history.
Will her new role make the paper wake up and listen to the honest scientists and activists? Time will tell.
Or, does your challenge to NYT subscribers offer an opportunity to meet with Ms. Abramson along with people like Michael Mann, Dr. Trenbreth, Gavin Schmidt and yourself to have a face to face with her to get her attention to this extinction-prone matter of climate chaos.
Let her see the price the paper is paying by its careless approach to the greatest threat humans have ever faced.
She is features in a New Yorker piece and the link is below.
Changing Times"Jill Abramson takes charge of the Gray Lady".
by Ken Auletta October 24, 2011As always Joe, you lead and people that trust you are willing to follow. Maybe this matter deserves more thought. New Executive Editor = new approaches? Worth a try.
Joe, I hope you and your family are out and enjoying the fall colors. However, this comment deserves a reply.
I really believe there should be massive 'call your governors & senators' action. Flooding them with demands they advocate the interests of the American people, not those of the corporations that fund their election campaigns.
Also, more activism, more demonstrations, marches, the US has to become a country on the march for the causes it's citizens believe in, because the gov isn't doing it.
The power really lies with the people, attach to the Occupy movement, make daily life in the US impossible for the moneyed elite controlling Washington unless the most pressing issues are adressed. Elect someone who represents these people, collect a billion to be able to nominate your own president. It will require only 20 bucks from 50 million people to start a massive campaign to elect Bernie Sanders, Nader or some non-crazy president. Or at least give him a shot.
Basically take control of the land back from corporations, move your money away from the big banks, drive less so you buy less gas from the fossil corps, do everything an alternative way so the elites don't get your cash which they can spend to distort politics.
Write and call in to NYT and other publications with your anger, etc.
Perhaps a two week suspension and then take a new subscription, if done widely would bring attention without destroying the paper
If letters and email don't work, then your options include (in order of escalating action): don't read, cancel subscription, encourage others to cancel, publicly oppose with direct action (picket head office, ridicule, burn, make it into toilet paper for public washrooms…). Consider that you're already providing a much-needed alternative (and, hopefully, increasingly read). The NYT may have been around a long time and have provided a useful service; but it's still just a business, not a sacred temple. In the grand scheme of things, most people on Earth DON'T read the NYT anyway, just the last-century die-hards. Personally, I think I only know one guy in his late 60′s who actually has a newspaper subscription now.
I'm sure quite a few people cancelled their subscriptions to the NY Times after the Judith Miller affair. Working with a corrupt presidential administration to misguide a nation into an unnecessary war is about as bad as it gets. . . Unless you compare it to complicity in the march towards catastrophic climate change.
What should we do?
I cancelled a long time ago because of the refusal of the NYT to tell the political story of the country in context and without the false equivalency BS that is the way of the non-Fox MSM in these anti-rational times.
But because of the NYT's coverage of climate and its insistence of another false equivalency, I have another reason to keep it cancelled.
I will NOT renew any subscription to the NYT until both of those habits are corrected.
I hope everybody does the same.
If a newspaper is not covering all topics with incredible journalistic integrity and honesty, than it's not worth anyone's time and money. Either your are committed to truth or not, and the NYT has proven that it's not committed to truth anymore. Why should we forgive them for blatantly lying to us? We shouldn't, and if we do, interest groups will notice and will use the NYT to misinform us again.
I will keep my subscription to the NYT because it's a reflection of what the MSM is thinking, and I still think there's more good than bad. (I'm not inclined towards USA today, or WSJ as a MSM source.) The NYT is certainly not the only news I read, nor do I trust everything that I read. For climate stuff, it's Climate Progress, other science magazines, blogs, …
The point of leverage for climate activists is probably OWS, Obama, Congress, the elections, "laywers" (e.g. NRDC), businesses (e.g., cleantech sector), …
(I wish there was an edit/delete button, or spell checker in this commenting system. "Lawyers", not "laywers" …)
It probably does come down to money for the most part. They and others like them need to have their money situation affected in negative & positive ways in order to change their climate coverage quality and quantity. One individual probably can't affect this on his/her own. So it's about getting a group together to try things. This group could try real-world "on the ground" bits of activism and/or net-based. One of many, many things to try might be to encourage groups to cancel subscritions and instead to buy articles they DO like. A "buy-cott" of articles that meet certain standards.
Another option is to try to compete for money they're after. Again, grouping together with others is likely needed to start a competing media outlet. (Obviously even an amazing blog like this one has its limits of reach and influence. Also, there are way too many lone ranger efforts and way too many organizations with highly overlapping mandates splitting the pie and reinventing wheels. Folks have to get past themselves and find common ground and really get cause-driven.) Maybe a multiple non-profit collaboration, maybe a co-operative, maybe a platform of supervised citizen journalism, or maybe some clever innovation that hasn't been tried. It should focus on audio and visual and less on reading.
I suppose one could try to affect their money through creation or changing of laws. That is, one could try working "the democratic system". So get that group working to lobby for laws and regs that better oversee the media. OBVIOUSLY the system isn't very attentive right now if you're not a mega-corporation or multi-billionaire, so you might want to join the democratic reform movement first. People like Harvard prof Lawrence Lessig and Occupy Wall Street seem to be right, IMO, in that this is the change that needs to be done first.
I can understand why an individual who new better would keep putting gasoline in their car or keep the electricity turned on in their house even though they know this is the problem; it's just too darned inconvenient to stop. However, to stop reading a newspaper is not inconvenient. It is just a habit. There are plenty of other places to get the news. This is an easy one. If you are unwilling to try to change this habit, than you are pathetic and considering yourself a Climate Hawk is delusional (assuming that some sort of actual action is requisite to CH status). I guess you could be a Climate Hawk (The risks of global warming are sufficient to warrant a robust response) with the operational principle that the response is the responsibility of others.
If the NYT is willing to provide such destructive coverage of the story of the century (AGW), what makes you think the other news they provide is really any better, any freer from distortion.
(I don't read the Times except maybe stories linked from this site but I am trying to un-plug my house and plug-in my car.)
Trained 'scientists'- in Biology, Chemistry etc still do not 'get' climate science-
I am not trained in the hard sciences, but understand the science. In the end its the ability to be flexible, open to new ideas, without having dogmatic beliefs. Extend that to the general population- and you begin to see why the public is still in a sleepy inertia with ACC.
What climate hawk buys the dead tree edition of any newspaper anymore? Seriously. Ick.
As far as subscribing online to the NY Times I certainly want to, and many times I've almost done it because they have lots of great stuff. But everytime I've balked because their climate reporting is just horrid.
Not just bad but truly terrible.
Years ago the NYT got a lot of my money and I was an addicted readers. I've spent countless Sundays' reading it all. Those days disappeared reluctantly when their climate reporting fell to the ranks of the Judith Miller WMD shillfest.
The real problem with traditional major media sources like NYTimes is that their real "subscribers" are the corporations.
Subscriptions of the citizen readership barely pays for their slab of dead tree and the ink smearing.
So when push comes to shove on "inconvenient truths" — like the fact that the second hand smoke from Big Carbon products is destabilizing our weather system — the big money wins. One way or the other the beast finds a way to feed itself.
The citizen subscribers get exactly what they pay for: a pile of dead tree with some ink.
Freedom of the press has always belong to those that own one.
Fortunately we have something called the internet now that is full of amazing content that isn't reliant on global corps to put the words out there.
So citizen should start subscribing to these sites and make sure they stay viable and can grow their voice. "Subscribe" to Climate Progress. I do.
And find the alternative online press in your town and write for it. I do that too.
Waiting for the NYTimes to actually cover climate change accurately is like waiting for global corporations to cut their emissions just because they want to…or for congress to pass a carbon price all by themselves.
Yes, cancel. We are talking about the fate of the planet. This really calls for zero tolerance when it comes to the really important issues: climate change, clean water, food security, war. We cannot allow reporting that say sides with big oil or obfuscates the issues. We can not afford it. We don't have time for that; not from the New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, the networks. We need to break some of these companies up, implement firewalls between public radio and business and political interest, and find ways to create more competition in local markets maybe through subsidies. And by all means we need to not put up with poor reporting. Democracy cannot survive if people don't have good information. Nor can we survive as a species if we are incapable of perceiving and responding to real environmental threat. We need a vibrant, competent, independent media to do that.
It is not surprising that Petit comes to the defense of the Grey Lady. Much of mainstream media embraces the notion that the press in little more than a stenographer who's job it is to repeat whatever anyone says, and Mr. Petit speaks for the MSM.
Michael Massing and Bill Moyers are far more objective critics, and their indictment of the NYT and the MSM is scathing, as is Bernie Sanders.
I considered canceling my subscription to the New York Times when it became apparent they were allowing themselves to be used by the Bush administration in the run up to the Iraqi war,printing unverified propaganda from second rate reporters such as Judith Miller, while ignoring legitimate and well sourced evidence that the administration was lying.
When they subsequently tried to delay publication of Plamegate until after the election, and downplayed the importance of the Downing Street memos, I felt I had no choice.
I still occasionally read the NYT, and yes — they occasionally have a good bit of reporting — but overall, they've blown it on the two biggest and most important stories of the Century so far.
A stopped watch is right twice a day — and the NYT gets some things right. But that's no reason to reward it with readership.
Have our standards for journalism sunk so low that "… they get some things right … but not the really important stuff …" has becom a justification for supporting them?
I hope not.
Cancel them, I say, and tell them you are, and tell them why.
John, you are an enlightened commenter.
Since the Times has appointed a new Executive Editor and she being tg\he first woman in the paper's 169 history to achieve that position, do you see any value in approaching her to determine her views on the sixth extinction? Just a thought.
Cancelling a subscription is easy lifting. Then there are millions more to convince to do the same. Heavy lifting.
And, to what advantage?
Thinking beyond the point of anger is what we need. Not knee-jerking.
You're all kidding right? This is just occurring to you to ask this question? Santo cielo!
By the 90s one could see what a lot of crap the Sunday Sabbath gas-bag shows were ("Gosh, can't make one step without knowing what Sam and Cokie think!"). I was a devotee of the Post, the NYT, and my local paper for years – read all three every day! By 2003 all of them were toast in our house. And as near as I can tell the mighty liberal NPR may as well stand for "Nincompoops Parroting Republicans" (my Road to Damascus moment with them is when they decided to have a debate over torture several years ago, and also decided to cut out the voice of Michael Moore [no, not a fan in particular] on Morning Edition, but to interview Dick Cheney[!]).
What set me over the edge with American newspapers was reading in the Italian daily La Reppublica while in Rome in January 2003 which reported that American special forces had entered Iraq in prep for the invasion – while we in the States were still talking as though we didn't know if there would be one or not. The same story was picked up by the Post . . . . in March!
The paucity of voices (why, pray, are Tom Friedman, George Will, Wolf Blitzer, etc. etc. etc. still given a platform?) in the media is appalling. In my life I've been privileged to know intelligent, dedicated people who actually know something about, well, the Mid-East and Climate change. But hey, who are those who have dedicated their lives to the study of such issues in the face of mighty intellects such as Beck and Hannity?
You want to start a revolt? The cliche in third world countries in the 60s was to take the radio stations first, but there was something to that. Occupy Wall Street yes . . . but you either invade the studios of Fox, CNN, et al., or we go off to grow vegetables in the countryside because we'll all be on our own as Venus syndrome takes hold, the oceans acidify, and limited nuclear war, if there is such a thing, becomes a very real possibility as resources become scarce and people desperate. Maybe some day there will be trials for not just war crimes in this country, but for crimes against the planet. We will look to see in the dock not just the Koch brothers, but editors and news producers as well. But don't hold your breath.
The idea of csncelling delivery for a few weeks may be a good one to preceede a total cancellation. If a significant number of people can coordinate a time period to not have the paper delivered, it only takes a few thousand to be noticed, it would definitely send a message to the paper. If we do not get satisfaction with the response, then begin a cancellation campaign. I do not buy the times, it is very expensive, i do read it in the library or other people's homes.
The Times still has far better news coverage on a wide variety of topics than most other news sources. Killing off one of the few newspapers that still has any depth or breadth will increase general ignorance on any number of issues.
On the other hand, the Times news operation does treat climate change as a trivial news story–how get attention? Maybe it's time to stage a protest in front of the newspaper building.
The columnists are divided between some who take the issue seriously and others like David Brooks who just will not mention it.
I agree. TNYT does quite well on a number of issues; just not so well on this one.
I think we need to do something a little more dramatic than cancelling subscriptions to change things in this country.
Occupying Wall Street is not the best focus of our anger. In the capitalist system, businesses are going to do whatever they can legally to increase profits. The more billionaires the better, I say, as long as they pay a fair tax in exchange for their freedom and opportunity to operate a business in this country.
I think we need to go at the source of our problem: our elected leaders. They are the ones making the laws, taking lobbyist donations, making it legal for businesses such as the Koch brothers and Murdoch to make billions while at the same time mounting disinformation campaigns.
I, therefore, suggest that we march on the offices of U.S. Representatives and Senators. They've been getting a free ride. Let's camp out in front of their offices so they can experience their constituency's wrath personally.
Are You Joking? It's Not Even A Question At This Point
Given the stakes of climate change, The New York Times' coverage has been repeatedly dismal and grossly insufficient.
If we — or most people — can't even give up a paper when that's the case, we may as well give up and go home.
The philosophy that goes like this — "I'll stick with something until/unless there's a better immediate and easy alternative" — that is, the "lesser of two evils" approach — is the fundamental thing that keeps the status quo going and keeps us addicted to it.
It's quite interesting to see how many people enjoy handcuffing themselves to something that's not working. It's like staying in a repetitively abusive relationship.
I quit The New York Times long ago — and I had bought it, and had followed it, closely for years. I tried writing to folks there, calling them, offering to help them (for free), and all sorts of things, to no avail, and I've followed their dismal coverage. Enough.
I actually think that The New York Times has done a huge disservice to the U.S public in recent years. That's because when you occupy a position — when you presumably have and claim to have a role — you DO have a responsibility to fulfill it, and there's an opportunity cost to the public if you don't, so to speak. For example, consider a father who claims to be the father of two children but feeds them only two days a week, leaving them to be hungry five other days. Should he get applause, or even deserve any credit, or be considered a good father, for feeding them (reluctantly) for those two days while letting them starve the other five days? No. Parents are supposed to feed their (minor) children seven days a week. Parents who do so two days a week, and let them starve the other five, don't deserve applause for the two; instead, they deserve deep criticism, and an F grade, because of the five days of failure. The New York Times should be measured relative to what it SHOULD be doing in order to genuinely serve the public good, not relative to the even worse record of many (though not all) other media.
In any case, The New York Times has lost me; and history will judge them.
Right Jeff. This wasn't even a close question six years ago, let alone now. Of course people should not subscribe to and thereby support an institution that is destructive to knowledge and true democracy. As Tenney Naumer (comment #1) said, The New York Times has been as destructive as Exxon Mobil to the future of humanity. What difference does it make that one is fueled by greed and the other by a combination of ignorance and cowardice? We should reject both, of course.
Is it "kosher" for climate hawks to pay to have paper made from trees hauled in fossil fuel trucks and cars delivered to our doorstep in any event? I canceled all print media — ALL PRINT MEDIA — many years ago and rely 100% on electronic. Don't need a subscrip to the NYT because I can read all of their articles for free whenever I want. Same is true for every national newspaper. It takes a little work to do it this way, one has to actively seek out news, use effective search terms, etc but with a little practice it works. Plus, the bulk of NYT revenue comes from ads, not reader sales. And the proportion of total readers that care enough about climate coverage to cancel is negligible. That said, should anyone give NYT any money at all to keep doing what it does? Yes — it's one of the few major newspapers that still does a half-decent job at reporting. Better than some "Washington Times" rag or having everything watered down to USa Today kindergarten level. But now the question is, how does the readership effect coverage and content? Probably in MORE and louder and more insistent calls and letters and maybe from more prominent people. My Rep is
Chris Van Hollen. If enough of his constituents asked him to, he might be willing to put his two cents in with the Post. Or maybe the corps that pay for ad space, see of some of them can be recruited to weigh in. Find the pressure spots. Because as much as I believe in boycotts, the one being suggested here doesn't seem to have any real power in it. -
Of course you should cancel your subscription to the New York Times. Not only are they a very poor newspaper on the issue of climate change, but they nearly single-handedly, from a media source, got us into the Iraq war based on false and misleading stories. They are a newspaper that has no problem telling false stories if it sells newspapers. I stopped paying attention, like most of the country, to the NYT a long time ago. I think the only people who still rely on it for news are those in Washington DC and New York state itself.
What set me over the edge with American newspapers was reading in the Italian daily La Reppublica while in Rome in January 2003 which reported that American special forces had entered Iraq in prep for the invasion – while we in the States were still talking as though we didn't know if there would be one or not.
It is why most people outside the U.S. knew there were most likely no WMD. The problems regarding the source of the intelligence, and the strength of the counter-intelligence, was discussed openly.
The biggest shock to us was how the U.S. could have been so misled into thinking 1) there were WMD, and 2) that they'd be greeted as liberators. Truly it was a demonstration of how poorly U.S. media did its job to inform citizens.
As for cancelling a subscription, yes. Sloppy reporting is just a minor reason though. Dead tree media is on its way out. There's still room for print papers, right next to the 8-tracks, vinyl albums, and cassette and video tapes (on the bottom shelf, near the buggy whips).

I agree. Infertile couples go through hell in the adoption process, but people like Mr and Mrs Rocket Man just get out the cheque book. Buying children is just wrong no matter how well looked after they'd be. They are being made to order and it is wrong

Good luck to them, they seem like good guys and obviously the kid will never want for anything. It's a shame they weren't allowed to adopt the little orphan boy a couple of years ago though, wonder if that poor child is still in need of parents

Yet people slam women who are 'too old' when they have children?? I love the sickening double standards. So this pair waves the cheque book and that makes them automatically good parents?? Oh please. They are TOO OLD, they have DELIBERATELY denied their children the chance of having a mother (one of, if not the most, important relationships a child can have) and they BUY their children.
Yes, they sound like parents of the year. |

I say good luck to them both... Their children will be loved and never have to worry about anything. I don't understand the hate being directed at them for having a child...many gay couples adopt or have surigate mothers these days..
I do feel sorry for those who want a child but can't afford treatment but that doesn't mean those who can afford to do it should be made to feel guilty because they can. |

Their first little boy Is loved and they both seem like wonderful parents from what's been shown to the public eye, so what's wrong with them having another? I don't get what all the hate is about

Well, the children are going to want for nothing. They could well be very good parents.
But there's something about the modern baby making machine that is akin to almost picking designer cherubs out of a catalogue. |

They sound very close to their surrogate and have used the same lady again.
A question for the FM's posting bile - just how do you expect two gay men to have children? Ask The Stork? Make a wish and look in the cabbage patch/gooseberry bush? Or is it just that you don't like the idea of gay men becoming parents? |

As far as I can see,both children were planned,wanted and will grow up in a home where their parents love them,and each other - sounds pretty good to me. As for the double standards thing - I seem to remember that when the guy who played Scotty in the original Star Trek tv series and his wife had their last child he was almost 80. There were a lot more people congratulating him "for still having lead in his pencil" than there were saying that he was selfish. |

I support gay co-parenting but Elton is 66 years old. At that age, it's selfish to want to raise a child.

If anything happened to one of them, the other would still be around. The amount of love and care that can be provided is far more important than the parent's age. |

Anything that keeps Sir Elton too busy to be able to record and release another song has probably got to be a good thing.

I'm sure he's rich enough never to have to release another single or album ever again. He's one of the highest rated artists ever - so I doubt the fact you aren't a fan will make him lose any sleep.

June 27th | 6:30
June's wine dinner will bring two of California's most promising young winemakers to Enotria.
Anthony Filiberti's talent first became apparent as he and his partners created the Anthill Farms label in 2004. The small production, coastal Pinot Noir of Anthill Farms soon became one of California's most sought after wines. This caught the attention of Peter Knez, who brought him to Anderson Valley to make wine for Knez Winery. At Knez he crafts single vineyard Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with great depth and balance.
He will be joined by his friend Chris Pittenger who the San Francisco Chronicle selected as one of five winemakers to watch in 2013. Chris learned to work with Pinot Noir at Williams-Seylem and under Helen Turley at Marcassin. Today he produces Pinot Noirs of strength and finesse under his label Gros Ventre. Much like his friend, Pittenger has built a reputation with small production Pinot Noirs that express the identity of the cool, coastal vineyards of Anderson Valley.
Enotria is very excited to welcome the two winemakers and to pair their elegant wines with Chef Pajo Bruich's cuisine. Dinner is $125 per person + tax and 18% gratuity.
For reservations or inquiries please call 916.922.6792
TBD, 6:30 pm
It is difficult to achieve perfection in any one pursuit; Nickel & Nickel has achieved it in many. Whether producing the classic Chardonnays of Far Niente, the prized small-production Cabernets of The Vineyard House, or the incredibly selective Sauternes style dessert wine of Dolce, the Nickel & Nickel pedigree is synonymous with quality. Enotria is incredibly pleased to have Jeremy Nickel on hand for March's wine dinner, where we will sample through this incredible portfolio of wine. Seating is limited and reservations are required.

Sharon Bulova Shares Her Priorities for 2013
What does the chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors look forward to in the new year?
As 2012 draws to a close, Fairfax County Board of Supervisors Chairman Sharon Bulova has shared with Patch her legislative priorities and goals for 2013. They have been published below. As an added bonus, she also included her New Year's resolutions.
The adoption of the Fiscal Year 2014/2015 Budget begins in earnest in late February when County Executive Ed Long releases his Advertised Budget. We already know that Fairfax County is, and will be, affected by the current federal climate. Our income projections (flat to modest) coupled with expenses needed just to maintain our current levels of service result in a projected shortfall of approximately $170 million for FY2014. It is my goal, working with my colleagues and County staff, to adopt a budget that continues to strike the right balance for our taxpayers and corporate neighbors. It is critical that we invest what is needed to maintain the quality of life we value in Fairfax County.
Top on my list for next year is the successful opening of four new Silver Line Metro Stations in Tysons Corner. I am working with stakeholders in the Tysons area to make sure employees and neighbors will be able to use the new stations through shared parking arrangements in commercial buildings near stations, as well as new bus service/routes and pedestrian access.
I'm excited about new Express Connector Bus Service that will whisk travelers from VRE stations in Lorton, Burke and Springfield via the new Beltway Express (HOT) lanes into Tysons. The new service will be rolled out in January. Click here for more information.
Throughout the next year my colleagues and I will continue our focus on the former Lorton prison site. This South County area is transforming into an exciting mixed-use town center, including the wonderful Arts Workhouse. Since 2002, when the U.S. Congress transferred the 2,300 acres of property at Laurel Hill to Fairfax County, the county has worked with residents and task forces to develop plans for future uses of the area. The approved Master Plan for the Adaptive Reuse Site at Laurel Hill (east of Route 123 and south of Silverbrook Road) creates a hub of community residences, workplaces, shopping, and green space.
For my New Year's resolution, I want to lose five pounds and find the perfect pair of comfortable black dress pumps.

It's interesting that shortening the lines at this November's Gubernatorial election didn't make the list.
It will cost $2 million to shorten the lines Fairfax voters experienced last November.

I agree ---- plus the amount of revenue that could be generated through having some sort of parking authority --- plus the number of jobs it would create would be nice ---- there are approximately 25 parking violations in my neighborhood alone on a two square block area that are dangerous --- parking on wrong side of street -- cars parked at angels --- one house the car parks every single day directly in front of the fire hydrant --- the confusion is baffling --- plus itnis directly within a block of the school ---- same old same old from the FFX County Board --- Gerry Connolly wasted millions on a day laborer camp house but didn't do much else --- but spend money ---- how about generate jobs and make neighborhoods safer --- a young man was killed this past summer because of speeding on these same roads where nothing is done to make the neighnorhood safer and cars are parked illegally on a day basis.

(PNS reporting from EAST LOS) A new web series on Hulu is poised to blow the lid off the unprecedented rise of sexy Latinos currently overrunning East Los Angeles. The series, East Los High, is a riveting expose of the rapid "sexrification" of the historically low-and-slow Chicano community.
"The kids at East Los High are hot, they're ripped, and they can dance," said Garfield High School alum Alberto "Sleepy" Gonzalez. "When I drop my kid off at school, it looks like he's stepping into another country, like Puerto Rico." [Mas…]

Blowouts apparently were the theme Wednesday as two local high school softball squads recorded them in their season openers.
Morgan City shut out Thibodaux, 9-0, while Patterson run-ruled Central Lafourche, 12-2, in five innings.
In Morgan City's win, Tyler Hebert tossed a two-hitter, striking out 12 and surrendering just one walk.
"She did a great job for us," Morgan City softball coach Kelly Jo Aucoin said. "She took control of the game and did her job."
Hebert also contributed at the plate as she finished 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI.
Celeste Williams led Morgan City at the plate with a 3-for-4 performance with a home run, three RBIs, two runs and a stolen base.
Other top contributors for Morgan City included Marilynn Bailey, 2-for-3, two runs and a stolen base; Katelyn Adams, 1-for-3, and a triple; and Aliya Green, an RBI, hit by a pitch, two runs and a stolen base.
"The team played very good today," Aucoin said. "They are coming together as a team. This game was a big win for us for our season opener."
Morgan City (1-0) will hit the road today for a 3:30 p.m. contest at Destrehan High School. Junior varsity will follow the varsity contest.
In Patterson, Lumberjills Rachel Easley and Madi Morris both had huge games to lead the squad's rout.
Easley finished 3-for-3 with a double, four RBIs and four runs scored, while Morris batted 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and three RBIs.
Other top Patterson hitters included Carli McIntyre, 3-for-3 with three runs scored; and Arianna Ross, two RBIs.
"I thought the top of the line-up did a great job getting on base and getting runs in," first-year coach Colby Minton said. "Anytime your number one and number two hitters are on base eight times combined, you will give yourself a chance to be successful. Two, three and four in the order did a great job of getting runners in."
Carissa Fontenot earned the complete game victory as she surrendered two runs (one earned) on five hits with one walk and five strike outs.
"Carissa Fontenot did a great job getting ahead of hitters early and moving the ball around the zone," Minton said.
Minton said minus one error in the first inning, his team's defense was solid.
Patterson (1-0) will return to action today when it travels to Ellender. Varsity action is set for a 4 p.m. start, with junior varsity to follow.

Dorie's onion biscuits were a quick and easy side dish for our chili supper. Finely chopped onions were sauteed in butter, then added to a typical biscuit mixture. I added some shredded cheddar to some of mine, too…just because cheese makes everything taste better!
These were flaky and wonderful. Hubby wasn't so thrilled with the oniony taste (good grief, I finally got the man to eat nuts and now the onion is a problem?), but these would make fantastic biscuits even without them.
This recipe can be found in Around My French Table as well as on Amazon's website.
