As California's financial hemorrhaging continues, some school districts are lining up for the possibility of an injection of federal stimulus money. It's all part of President Obama's Race to the Top program. That's the one that rewards schools for following the ambitious reforms put forth by the U.S. Department of Education.
In Round 1, only two states out of 41 that applied were grantefgd federal money. Tennessee and Delaware split the cash which totaled about $600 million. California got shut out along with the other states that failed to meet the educational overhaul standards set by the feds. Good news came Tuesday when the federal government announced that California still has a shot at about $700 million if they meet the standards of the Obama administration. Good news. Or is it?
In a state that's taking a bath daily in red ink, why would anyone turn down a big financial boost from the U.S. government? Budgets are being slashed and the outlook isn't good. Wouldn't the money buy more school supplies and preserve teaching jobs? Not exactly. These reforms don't come without controversy.
First of all, as education historian Diane Ravitch points out, the money that states win can't be used to plug budget gaps. What? California schools are suffering from the frequent swing of the budget ax. Regardless, the money can only be used to meet the requirements of the federal government's mandate.
Then there's the process of teacher evaluations. They would be based greatly on student's test scores. Seems logical at first blush. But would a teacher who knows their livelihood is based on student scores not do whatever necessary to make sure grades are up? Maybe fudge a little bit? Would such a scenario lead to improved education or the illusion of progress? This isn't meant to call into question the integrity of our teachers. But when livelihood is on the line, how much will the desire for better grades supersede educational reality?
U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan has even conceded that the current tests being used are bad. Yet he wants to put the fate of teachers on inadequate tests?
Even though California's got its hat in the ring for a piece of this federal pie, the California Teachers Association had no part of the application process. CTA President David Sanchez doesn't believe it's the right time to push the Race to the Top agenda. "We believe education is a right, not a race," he says.
Uncle Sam is ready to pump hundreds of millions of dollars into the educational systems of a few select states. If California wants some, it better appease the federal government in a big way. Even if the state does get its cut, the money coming in will only affect about one third (1.7 million) if its students. That's based on the number of school districts in the state that applied.
Like I said. These reforms don't come without controversy.

November 2007: U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn Walker issues an inverse-condemnation judgment against Half Moon Bay in the amount of roughly $37 million plus $4 million more in attorneys' fees. Walker finds that, when the city did work on Beachwood, a 24-acre property owned by developer Charles "Chop" Keenan, it allowed water to pool, creating wetlands that made the site unfit for development.
April 2008: Half Moon Bay agrees to an $18 million legal settlement with Keenan and later takes ownership of the property.
April 2011: Its finances crippled by the Beachwood fiasco and the recession, the city votes to outsource police and recreation services to the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office and the city of San Carlos, respectively.
September 2012: Arbitrator Edward Panelli, a retired California Supreme Court justice, rules that Beachwood is covered by the city's liability policy with Insurance Company of the West and orders the company to pay the city $10 million.

Petition Urges Macy's to Dump Donald Trump Ads, Merchandise
(NEW YORK) -- A petition urging Macy's to "dump" Donald Trump and his branded goods from its advertisements and stores could reach 500,000 signatures Tuesday as some consumers react to the retail giant's relationship with the controversial critic of President Obama. Among those consumers was Cher, the singer and actress, who eloquently aired her frustrations via Twitter on Sunday.
"Racist cretin who'd lie like 'his rug' to get some cheap press! I can't believe Macy's thinks he's the right 'man' 2 represent their name!"
The so-called "Dump Trump" petition, which users sign through the site signon.org, was organized by 30-year-old lawyer Angelo Carusone. Carusone cites Trump's post-election tweets, one of which urged a "march on Washington" after the election. Carusone said he also believes a Macy's Christmas ad in which Trump doubts a man who claims to be Santa, presumably in a nod to Trump's "birther" argument that Obama may not have been born in the U.S., has helped encourage people to sign his petition.
"When I saw Trump's repeated calls for revolution on Twitter and the $5 million birther stunt, I realized, as a lover of Macy's, that the company was getting publicity from Trump's chicanery consequence-free," Carusone told ABC News.
Carusone organized a similar "Stop Beck" effort in 2009, which focused on another controversial figure, Glenn Beck, and urged his advertisers to reassess their relationship with Beck. Carusone called his left-wing campaigns "advertiser education efforts."
"I don't believe people really care what Trump has to say," Carusone said, "This is about Macy's benefitting from Trump's unacceptable behavior."
Macy's released a statement Tuesday evening that distanced the company from Trump's statements without naming him.
"Many of the individuals associated with products sold at Macy's -- or at any retailer, for that matter -- express personal opinions that are not related to the merchandise we sell or to the philosophies of our company."
Trump has not spoken publicly about the petition. However, the business mogul did respond to Cher's comments via his own Twitter account.
"@cher -- I don't wear a "rug" -- it's mine," Trump tweeted Tuesday, "And I promise not to talk about your massive plastic surgeries that didn't work."
Earlier Tuesday, Trump also tweeted, "My fragrance -- "Success" -- is flying off the shelves @Macys The perfect Christmas gift!"
Trump's Twitter account has nearly 2 million followers.

I have been so in love with my Chanel lip products that I haven't been giving my Korres any love lately. Just yesterday I used my Korres Mango Butter Lipstick in Rose and it reminded me why I love them so much. I love that they are sheer and moisturising and how they impart the lips with hints of colour instead of full on colour.

Several airports service Baltimore, beginning with BWI – the Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport. It's 10 miles to the south of the city, services both domestic and international routes, and it's typically calmer than the other airports in the area. It has a single terminal and five concourses, so navigation is easy.
Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is 30 miles away from Baltimore. There are three terminals, which bring in flights from Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, Charlotte, Orlando, Houston, Boston, New York City, and Fort Lauderdale. There are international flights as well, but they require a pre-clearance from US customs. Washington International can get cramped during peak hours.
Washington Dulles International Airport services the Baltimore area as well, although it's a busier airport about 43 miles away. It's known for its many shops and amenities, and for its designation as a United Airlines hub. It has one terminal and four concourses, with transportation provided by a moving walkway, shuttle buses, and the Aerotrain.
BWI is a hub for AirTran, Cape Air, and Southwest. Popular direct flights include Chicago, Detroit, Boston, Tampa, and Atlanta. Because of its wide reach and popularity, there are a number of cheap flights to Baltimore Washington International, as well as from there. The airport has tremendous shopping opportunities, along with a meditation room, various exhibitions, and a playroom for children.
Washington International is a major hub for US Airways. Travelers can find tickets through other domestic airlines, but if they're looking for flights to Baltimore from Dublin or other international destinations, they may prefer flying into or from Dulles. That is due, of course, to the customs regulations at this airport.
Dulles, as mentioned, is known for its amenities. The airport offers free Wi-Fi all throughout, plus there are Internet kiosks and charging stations. There are various airline lounges, including exclusive areas. Additional amenities include smoking lounges, shoeshine facilities, manicure services, and even a massage bar.
It's both easy and affordable to get into Baltimore from BWI. There's a free shuttle bus that takes airport guests to the nearby Amtrak station, and there's an MTA Light Rail station next to the airport's international concourse. The trains come and go from 6:00am to 11:00pm throughout the week, but with less regularity on the weekends, so late night or weekend travelers may prefer Dulles. Taxis into town typically cost around $30, but buses leave often and cost only $2.
Other than taxis, the train is one of the only ways to travel from Washington International to Baltimore. After cut-off, getting into Baltimore is difficult, resulting in passengers either taking a cab or walking four blocks to Union Station. From there, they can take a Greyhound into Maryland.
Travel into Baltimore from Dulles is surprisingly easy. Travelers can use the Metrorail; its orange line is accessible from the West Falls Church Station. There's also the possibility of a taxi, but it will cost upwards of $70 to make the trip into Baltimore.
Baltimore has its peak seasons in the spring and the summer. May is especially busy, due to the Preakness horse race and many festivals on the water. The best time to find cheap flights is in the fall, because there's little inclement weather and the hotels are inexpensive as well.

Immigration Debates Heighten Scrutiny of International Students Worldwide
Immigration Debates Heighten Scrutiny of International Students Worldwide - Global - the Chronicle of Higher Education
Immigration moved to the forefront of the political discussion in more than one country over the past year, increasing public attention on international students in destinations that include Britain, Canada, and Australia.
Britain, which attracts more overseas students than any country but the United States, set a largely negative tone. Its coalition government has pledged to reduce the number of immigrants, and, despite intense lobbying by universities, has chosen to include students in those figures.
The British government's recent elimination of the so-called work entitlement for foreign students at private institutions, in a bid to eliminate abuses by universities that primarily enrolled students whose main goal was to work illegally, has had an impact on legitimate institutions as well.
Some 100 private universities that enrolled foreign students studying for two-year degrees offered in collaboration with universities or students aiming to transfer to universities have closed down in the past year, says Dominic Scott, chief executive of the UK Council for International Student Affairs. While the crackdown has eliminated bogus institutions, it has also affected many that "were quite good," he says.
Although foreign enrollments at public universities have held relatively steady, they are unlikely to grow significantly, Mr. Scott says. And there are worries that the crackdown on private institutions will have a ripple effect, as one source of potential students has essentially been eliminated.

That's what John Moore of Newstalk 1010 did yesterday, albeit by first noting that "a lot of people" think Burke ought to be fired. With even Don Cherry calling Burke out for, of all things, not stocking his roster with any Ontario natives, it was worth asking Burke about what kind of pressure he must be feeling. Moore could have approached the question more delicately, since it's not like Burke was going to say he deserves to be canned. As you might expect, the conversation didn't last much longer.

In the last couple weeks, there have been several stories in the news and in the Christian blogosphere about Steven Furtick, pastor of Elevation Church in Matthews, NC. He's certainly no stranger to criticism, for everything from his unorthodox ecclesiology to his association with prominent "Word-Faith" pastors to his 16,000 sq. ft. mega-mansion. For a run-down on the most recent brouhaha—involving the methods used by Elevation Church to engineer mass baptisms—check out this post by Jeff Wright, pastor of Midway Baptist Church here in Cookeville.
As I've seen Jeff's post and many others like it appear on social media in recent days, there has been one response that seems to insert itself into every comment thread. It goes something like this:
Paul wrote in Philippians 1:18 that we should rejoice whenever the gospel is preached, no matter the motive, so what gives you the right to criticize any Christian pastor?
First of all, let me applaud those who have asked this question. I appreciate arguments made from Scriptural authority, even when I may disagree with someone's conclusions from that Scripture. But the question for today is, does Philippians 1:18 mean that we are never to call out pastors who we believe to be in error?
Let's turn to J. Gresham Machen, who addressed this very question in his book Christianity and Liberalism (my review) way back in 1923:
In short, the rival preachers made of the preaching of the gospel a means to the gratification of low personal ambition; it seems to have been about as mean a piece of business as could well be conceived. But Paul was not disturbed. "Whether in pretence, or in truth," he said, "Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, ye, and will rejoice" (Phil. i. 18). The way in which the preaching was being carried on was wrong, but the message itself was true; and Paul was far more interested in the content of the message than in the manner of its presentation. It is impossible to conceive a finer piece of broad-minded tolerance.
But the tolerance of Paul was not indiscriminate. He displayed no tolerance, for example, in Galatia. There, too, there were rival preachers. But Paul had no tolerance for them. "But though we," he said, "or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed" (Gal. i. 8). What is the reason for the difference in the apostle's attitude in the two cases? What is the reason for the broad tolerance in Rome, and the fierce anathemas in Galatia? The answer is perfectly plain. In Rome, Paul was tolerant, because there the content of the message that was being proclaimed by the rival teachers was true; in Galatia he was intolerant, because there the content of the rival message was false. In neither case did personalities have anything to do with Paul's attitude. (p. 22, emphasis mine)
So whether it's Furtick or any other pastor, the real question is whether the Jesus he preaches is the real one. If so, then our task is to correct with gentleness whatever errors may be present in his teaching. If not, our task is to warn sheep about the wolf in the fold.

DeCock: Renewed commitment to defense pays off for Tar Heels
At some point in the past month, Marcus Paige said, he and his North Carolina teammates figured out they weren't overflowing with offensive talent. (His words.) That's when they started making more of a commitment to defense. To turn around their season, they didn't have any choice.
The Tar Heels have benefited from some schedule relief during their five-game winning streak, winning games most outsiders would consider winnable. They also took that time to focus on the defensive end, with their improvement measured Saturday against Pittsburgh, a dogged defensive team in its own right with a versatile scoring threat in Lamar Patterson.
Against one of the ACC's grind-it-out teams, the Tar Heels did the grinding.
They escaped some late-game foibles to post a critical 75-71 win, their sixth straight. James Michael McAdoo and Paige powered the offense, but defense was the reason North Carolina won.
Patterson was held to 16 points on 5-for-15 shooting, partly by first-half foul trouble but also by the work of J.P. Tokoto, primarily, as well as Isaiah Hicks and Leslie McDonald. The Tar Heels forced 14 turnovers, battled the Panthers to a 40-40 draw on the boards and blocked nine shots -- five by Brice Johnson, otherwise North Carolina's weakest defender.
It was the latest example of how North Carolina has quietly become one of the ACC's better defensive teams. Per Ken Pomeroy's efficiency ratings, only Virginia and Clemson had better defenses going into Saturday's games. A program famous for its fast-break offense is winning games because of its lock-down defense.
"We can be really tough because we have length, we have athleticism, we have shot-blockers," Paige said. "We've taken that to heart. Since we're not the best offensive team in the world, we're going to hang our hat on defense, and it's paid off for us."
The obvious question being, what took so long?
"I understand," Paige said. "It's like, 'Why wouldn't you just apply that earlier in the year?' I just think we've grown up a little bit and understood, after those tough losses early, those were devastating to us, and we knew we had to make a change, because our season would have not been the way it is right now."
The way it is right now, the Tar Heels are 7-4 in the ACC, with any NCAA tournament doubts conjured by the baffling losses and 1-4 start in conference play long ago erased. (Pittsburgh, on the other hand, missed its final opportunity for a statement win until the ACC tournament.) Any lingering fallout from the P.J. Hairston situation has dissipated. McAdoo continues to play with authority.
There are issues, particularly on offense beyond McAdoo and Paige, but the ups and downs that plagued the Tar Heels earlier in the season have smoothed out, a state of affairs is reflected most notably on defense, where the progress is evident and the results have followed.
"I think we're getting better, but I try to look back at the end of the season and evaluate at that time, because it's a process that we're going through," North Carolina coach Roy Williams said. "My goodness, we work so hard every day on trying to be better defensively."
The really tough run of games begins now, unexpectedly crowded thanks to Wednesday's postponed visit from Duke, starting with a quick turnaround before Monday's visit to Florida State. That new commitment to defense was tested Saturday, and it will be tested again and again and again this week.
If the Tar Heels' winning streak has reinforced how they need to play to win, Saturday was the first of four games in eight days that will show just how far they have come.

September 1, 2009
To: Campus Community
From: President Jon Whitmore
Subject: Presidential Directive 2009-05, Graduation and Change of Major
Budget reductions have forced the California State University (CSU) to limit enrollment and turn away thousands of qualified students who meet the eligibility criteria for admission to the CSU. In order to increase space available for new and continuing students, the CSU needs to confer degrees on those students who have completed all degree requirements, but who either have not applied for graduation or who choose not to for a variety of reasons. Pursuant to the authorization granted by the recent revision in Title 5*, this Presidential Directive is to establish graduation policy at San José State University that implements this recent change.
Effective with registration for Spring 2010, any undergraduate or graduate student will be precluded from enrolling in any additional state-supported courses when that student has already met all necessary requirements for the degree for which that student is matriculated. Moreover, students who have met all requirements for graduation prior to any semester in which they are enrolled will be permitted to drop all courses for which they are registered, with little or no penalty, and to graduate at the next available date. Students who have earned more than enough units to graduate but have some remaining requirements to complete, will be advised and precluded from registering in any courses other than those required for a timely graduation.
In order to facilitate graduation, it is important for students to declare a major and make changes in a timely fashion. Effective for the next application period, transfer applicants must declare a major in the application for admission. Freshmen applicants may apply and be admitted as undeclared. By the end of Fall 2009, all students who have earned 60 units must declare a major, and thereafter all students must declare a major by the time they have earned 60 units. If the declared major is impacted, the student must meet criteria similar to those required of newly admitted students in the same major.
Student requests for changes in major will not automatically be approved. Effective after the final day of the Fall 2009 semester, students who have earned 90 units or more may not change majors except by special permission. Any request for change of major may be denied for students whose time remaining to complete the requirements for a degree would significantly increase. If the requested new major is impacted, the student must meet criteria similar to those required of newly admitted students in the same impacted major. Guidelines for changes in major, including criteria, will be published as soon as possible.
This directive is issued in consultation with the Executive Committee of the Academic Senate, the President's Advisory Committee on Enrollment, and the Advising Council. This directive will remain in effect until the president signs into effect a replacement policy developed by the Academic Senate.
The Associate Vice President for Undergraduate Studies will publish implementation guidelines for this Presidential Directive by the end of September, 2009.
* "The president of each campus may preclude any student from enrolling in any additional state-supported courses when that student has met all necessary requirements for the degree for which that student is matriculated, and may take the actions necessary to confer the degree." California Code of Regulations, Title 5, Section 40411.
Some questions will be answered below. Additional questions may be directed to Dennis Jaehne, AVP/Undergraduate Studies or Cindy Kato, Director of Academic Advising and Retention Services (AARS).
Question 1: How will these students be prevented from registering for courses?
A: A hold will be placed on their record for registration purposes. They will need to see an advisor (both in their major and in AARS) in order to register.
Question 2: Who will be affected by this directive?
A: The directive will be implemented in stages, starting with those students with 165 units or more. Eventually, we will be focusing on all students who have more units than are required for their degree.
Question 3: What if a student has a good reason for continuing to take courses?
A: These reasons will need to be discussed with their major advisor and with AARS.

Karrie Barron Cards came into being in 1995. Their concept and creation was the brain-child of my mother, Karrie Barron, who wanted to make 3-Dimensional cards which depicted miniature worlds. She began designing and making from a back bedroom in our family home in Fulham, London and would take them, once a week, to her stall in the Apple Market, Covent Garden. From a very early age I helped my mother with her work, and over the years I developed the patience, passion and skills to both make and design my own range of cards. In 2007, I took over our small family run business when my mother retired. The cards still continue to charm and although they now reach a much wider audience we still choose to sell exclusively from our stall in Covent Garden, at Harrods, and now due to popular demand, online. We believe that in this world of mass production our customer's appreciate their individuality, and this combined with the love and care that goes into their creation, makes them a pleasure to both give and receive.

Roy Pool's '65 Mercury Comet
That is the phrase owner Roy Pool used to describe how much it cost to build his car: way too much. But that description could also be expanded to other facets of the build. His cam, in fact, could be called way too much. The compression ratio, a stratospheric 13.8:1, might be described similarly. But the most crucial factor is this: How much fun does Roy have driving it? You got it: way too much.
The "way too" theme ends, however, when we attempt to describe how long Roy has owned his Mercury. He's had it for almost half a century. We've said it before in these pages, but we love it when guys hang on to their cars. They get cooler as time progresses. Roy bought the car in 1967. At the time, he was in the Army, stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas. He bought it from a second lieutenant who had upgraded to a family truckster for child-hauling duty. Roy began racing the Comet almost immediately at Manhattan Raceway Park near the base. Running in the Pure Stock class, the original two-barrel 289 and three-speed, column-shifted manual transmission combination was good for mid-15-second elapsed times. After his stint in the Army, he upgraded to a T10 and 7-inch slicks, and raced the car in Stock Eliminator at Lions Raceway.
Life intervened for a few years, and Roy used the car for daily-driver duty while his children grew up. But once the nest was empty, he got back into racing the car. He built it as a Pro Street car, adding the rollcage, slicks, and 3.89 gears. His best time in that configuration was a 12.84 pass.
The desire for more speed got the best of Roy, and soon he was building a new, big-cubic-inch, 289-based small-block. He plunked it into the engine compartment, backed it up with a sweet-shifting Jerico, and got serious running mid-10s with 128-mph trap speeds. He runs at American Nostalgic Racing Association events throughout the summer and is thinking of moving up to the Nostalgia Superstock; he'd need to build a big-block for that, though.
Even though it cost way too much, Roy has no regrets. Well except for one: that he doesn't get to drive it as much as he'd like. Half-filled with Hard Blok, the cooling system isn't up to the task of maintaining temperatures at around-town speeds. Even after 44 years of owning it, Roy can't fathom selling it. He's having too much fun with it.
Tech Notes
Who: Roy Pool
Where: Camarillo, California. Doesn't rhyme with armadillo.
What: '65 Mercury Comet
Engine: For as much noise as the car makes, it is a little surprising to see a diminutive and almost plain looking Windsor under the hood. It began as a 289, but now measures a stout 352 ci. The small-block is bored 0.060 inch over and fitted with an Eagle 3.40-inch stroke crank, allowing Roy to maximize its displacement. Fain's Machine in Ventura, California, did the block work, which included zero-decking and partially filling the coolant jackets with Hard Blok. Forged Keith Black pistons deliver the aforementioned 13.8:1 compression ratio. They're mated to Scat 5.4-inch connecting rods. The rings are from Speed-Pro, and the bearings are from Clevite. A Crane solid roller cam contributes to the soundtrack, and it is big-Roy was a little vague on the duration, calling it 300-plus, but he would admit to a 0.672 lift on both the intake and exhaust valves. The cylinder heads are ported Edelbrock Victor Jr.'s, and they're fitted with 2.05/1.62 valves. Comp springs and titanium retainers shed some weight from the valvetrain. The rocker arms are 1.6:1 Harland Sharp rollers. The pushrods are from Ford Motorsports as are the valve covers. A Victor Jr. intake manifold sits on top of all that. It breathes through a Holley 750 HP carb and a K&N filter plumbed into the airstream through the functional hoodscoops.
Exhaust: The headers are custom made by a person with a lot of patience. The rear tubes on both sides of the engine need to snake around a bunch of stuff to get to the collectors. They're a stepped design, too, so the 1 3/4-inch primary tubes open into larger 1 7/8-inch tubes before joining up at the 3 1/2-inch collectors. They dump into a 3-inch exhaust system with a pair of loud DynoMax Bullet mufflers.
Power: We like these numbers: 550 hp and 450 lb-ft. He shifts at 7,200 rpm.
Transmission: Roy likes to shift his own gears, and lightning-fast clutchless shifts are the way to go. With a Jerico DR4 and a Long vertical shifter, Roy makes it look easy. A Lakewood scattershield houses a McLeod 10-inch clutch.
Driveline: Aft of the trans, you'll find an Inland Empire aluminum driveshaft and an imposing-looking Mark Williams 9-inch rear. With 5.67:1 gears on a 35-spline spool and Mark Williams axles, we doubt Roy stays up at night worrying about any of those parts breaking.
Suspension/Brakes: The front is stock save for a pair of Competition Engineering shocks and 11-inch disc brakes. The rear is a ladder bar setup from Chris Alston. Those are Aldan Eagle coilovers out back. The 12-inch drum brakes are from a Ford station wagon.
Wheels/Tires: Up front are Phoenix 15×12.5 tires on American Racing 15×4 wheels. Out back, you'll find 11.5Wx29.5 slicks on 15×12.5 PSE hoops. Large by huge is the expression Tech Editor Smith uses.
Body: Roy took care to trim weight from his car where he could. The hood, bumpers, and fenders are fiberglass, and he gutted the doors, replacing the glass with Lexan. He does his own bodywork but turned painting duties over to Dan Koscas, of Oxnard, California, who sprayed the light-blue PPG paint. Believe it or not, that paintjob is 35 years old.
Interior: It's functional and cool in there. The Kirkey seats and RJS harnesses keep Roy planted as he power-shifts through the gears, and a bunch of Auto Meter gauges are there so he can monitor his engine's vital functions.

A New York judge isn't the only one taking aim at New York City's ban on large, sugary drinks.
In a move to prevent such regulations from taking hold elsewhere, Mississippi legislators have passed an "anti-Bloomberg bill" that bars counties from passing and enacting laws that require calorie counts to be posted or caps the size of beverages or foods. You can read it here.
The legislation is now on Gov. Phil Bryant's desk and NPR reports that he is expected to sign it. Mississippi, it's worth noting here, already has the highest obesity rate in the country.
Whether states will follow the example of Mississippi or New York remains to be seen. On the one hand, a number of public health regulations pioneered in New York City (required posting of calorie counts, to name one that's in the Affordable Care Act) have gone on to become national laws. On the other, the large soda ban is not exactly a popular law: Six in ten New Yorkers oppose it.
One factor that could tip the balance in New York's favor: Americans tend to be surprisingly supportive of restrictive laws aimed at improving public health. The Harvard School of Public Health recently polled 1,187 adults on a slew of public health regulations that aim to do everything from reduce obesity to cutting smoking rates.
A number of the policies in the survey got widespread support. Seventy-five percent supported barring food stamps from being used on sugary beverages (New York City actually tried to do this, but was shot down by the federal government). The same number liked the idea of requiring chain restaurants to reduce their sodium contents (New York City also tried to do this, and failed).
Eighty-percent liked required posting of calorie labels.
There were some regulations that went too far for the respondents: The majority opposed making possession of junk food or sodas a disciplinary offense. Only 37 percent thought that insurers should be allowed to charge the obese a $50 surcharge on their premiums.
Tthe Harvard survey didn't ask about a ban on large, sugary drinks, so we don't know from this research whether that specific restriction would garner much support. But the numbers do suggest that lots of people are open to a role for government in regulating unhealthy foods.

After the last presidential debate, President Obama sent out an online fundraising pitch. That's standard operating practice these days — hit supporters up for cash right as their hitting political (emotional) climax right after a big event like a debate.
But given Obama's tepid performance in the first debate, we can't help but wonder why First Lady Michelle Obama sent out a fundraising plea BEFORE the second debate. You know…just in case it, ahem…cough…doesn't go well.
I am so proud of Barack — and I can't wait to see him on stage during tonight's debate.
It gives us both so much strength to know you're out there, cheering him on, building this campaign from the bottom up.
Tonight at the debate, you're going to see the guy who will always be out there fighting tirelessly for you.
Show Barack you're with him by donating $5 or more

Economic Outlook Shows Vital Need for Immigrants in U.S. Economy
A new report examining key economic data and studies concludes that "Immigrants are a key part of the U.S. economy and will become an increasingly important element in America's economic growth and development in the future." The report by the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) notes that "Middle-to longer-term projections show a significant need to fill new jobs at all levels of the skill spectrum, with new immigrants playing a vital role in filling these jobs." It points out that "Over the next two decades, immigrants will be an essential element of labor force growth in American manufacturing and service sectors, as well as the U.S. economy as a whole. Today, immigrants continue to fill niches in the labor market, create jobs through entrepreneurship and consumer spending, and aid economic growth and the funding of the baby boom generation's retirement."
Commenting on the report, AILA President Palma Yanni said, "This study helps demonstrate the need for comprehensive immigration reform that would address the reality of the marketplace and the future labor force needs of the U.S. economy and American employers."
The key findings of the report:

What is the latest craze in the makeup industry? What's the one word you hear in almost every makeup tutorial?
So I did a makeup application in which I didn't contour at all. I did however shape my brows as I cannot embrace those misshapen things, plus I didn't apply any falsies.
So this is what I ended up with.
Here is my CONTOUR-LESS look!
I think overall this look is good for an everyday easy application. Look, I enjoy wearing falsies on a daily basis, even if it's just on the outer half of my lash line . I doubt I'll go falsie-less on a permanent basis.
The whole post is about not contouring, and I think, I can embrace it. Unlike many women, I don't mind my big nose at all. It doesn't function whatsoever… having chronic sinusitis and all, but it's there. Anyway, would I stop contouring all together? Nope! I think contouring is great! Remember when every makeup artist would tell you to blend, blend and blend in their tutorials and so forth? Well, that still holds true, but if you're into contouring, please do it properly and BLEND the CONTOUR.
And if you don't contour at all, well, that's your decision. It's not the end of the world if you're indeed a minimalistic makeup user.
If you ARE into CONTOURING, please learn from the best makeup artist, Samer Khouzami and celebs like Lilly Ghalichi.
Here are some of my previous makeup 'tutorials' :

Iraq plans to resume crude exports from a second Gulf oil terminal under the U.N. oil-for-food program, an Iraqi official said on March 13th.
Fa'iz Shaheen, undersecretary of the Iraqi oil ministry, said that: "Khor al-Amaya oil terminal will be ready for exporting Iraqi oil under the oil-for-food deal."
Shaheen indicated that the terminal, which suffered severe damage during both the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq War and the 1991 Gulf War, would soon resume international crude shipments.
The port, one of Iraq's largest in the Gulf, has four loading terminals, two of have already been repaired and will soon begin shipments.
Shaheen said that reopening the facility, which will be able to handle 600,000 b/d of oil exports, should ease congestion at the existing Gulf port of Mina al-Bakr.
Baghdad is currently allowed to sell oil through only two outlets under the oil-for-food program – Mina al-Bakr and the Turkish port of Ceyhan. – and a third export route would require the approval of the Iraq sanctions committee.
Reports have abounded in recent months that the Iraqi-Syrian pipeline, closed since 1982, had been reopened with at least 100,000 b/d of Iraqi crude flowing into Syria.
U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell had in late February said that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had agreed to put the line under U.N. control.
Iraqi officials continue to deny that the Syrian pipeline is in use, leading some analysts to speculate that Baghdad had been hoping to secure U.N. approval for Khor al-Amaya instead.

Oscar Pistorius granted bail in killing of Reeva Steenkamp
Oscar Pistorius was released from custody after winning the right to avoid imprisonment until his trial for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, a South African court decided on Friday.
A four-day hearing culminated with shouts of "Yes!" when chief magistrate Desmond Nair announced he was granting the Blade Runner bail. Pistorius, who kept his head bowed when Nair announced his ruling, was ordered to post $1 million South African rand – $112,771 U.S. dollars – as surety and surrender his passport to prevent him from leaving the country.
Not allowed to return to his home in Pretoria, Pistorius has reportedly gone to his uncle's house in Waterkloof, a suburb of Pretoria.
"We are relieved by the fact that Oscar got bail today," Pistorius' uncle, Arnold, told reporters outside the court house, "but at the same time, we are in mourning for Reeva Steenkamp and her family."
Although Pistorius, who claims he mistook Steenkamp for an intruder when he shot her through a bathroom door on Feb. 14, still faces charges of premeditated murder and could receive a life sentence, this outcome after four days of testimony is a major victory for the 26-year-old and his legal team before they are due back in court on June 4.
Among the stipulations of his bail, Pistorius was also ordered to surrender all his firearms, must appear at Brooklyn Police Station (where he had been held) every Monday and Friday, may not enter any airport, cannot talk to any witnesses and is not allowed to drink alcohol.
Nair, who admitted the decision was an"unenviable task," stated he did not believe Pistorius to be a flight risk and that the prosecution did not show he had a propensity for violence. As part of his summation that lasted nearly two hours on Friday, he highlighted several blunders made during the police investigation led by Hilton Botha, who was removed from the case Thursday after it emerged he was himself accused of seven counts of attempted murder. The blunders included:
• A failure to check proper phone records
• A possibility he contaminated crime scene evidence
• A failure to further investigate allegations of prior Pistorius aggression
• Mischaracterization of a substance found at the home
• A failure to seize evidence pertaining to offshore accounts
However, Nair also highlighted several burning questions that Pistorius and his legal team will need to answer once the trial comes around:
• Why didn't he ascertain Steenkamp's whereabouts?
• Why didn't Steenkamp answer back when he allegedly shouted to someone in the bathroom?
• Why didn't he verify who was in the bathroom before firing?
The international posse of media and a global audience has heard nothing from Pistorius himself, unless you count a written affidavit that was read in court by his lawyer on Wednesday. But the athlete wanted this bail decision desperately, and as Nair handed down his judgment on Friday, it must have meant as much to Pistorius as any of his triumphs on the track, where he became the first double amputee to compete in both the Olympics and the Paralympics.
Pretoria Central Prison, where he would have been sent back if denied bail, is by all accounts a godforsaken place – a dirty, noisy, violent, crowded, dangerous and soul-destroying jail that no one, especially a famous, white, wealthy, amputee superstar would want to spend his time.
Yet even more significantly for Pistorius' potential future liberty is the reality that under South African legal regulations, defendants who are bailed are widely considered to have significant advantages come trial time.
"It is hugely preferable for the defense to have the accused out on bail rather than being incarcerated," legal expert Manny Voets told 567 The Cape radio. "If the accused is in prison, you have to schedule appointments to visit, there is limited time and you are in a small room.
"Being out of prison is much easier. He can be seen in chambers and the preparation for defending the case is just much smoother. It is definitely preferable and can be very important in cases."
Pistorius will be relieved to be out of Pretoria Magistrates Court, where he spent four tense days under heavy scrutiny, much of it in floods of tears. While Pistorius could often maintain his composure during the more technical aspects of the legal deliberations, he would generally break down into sobs and gasps whenever assertions from either counsel turned to the actual events of Valentine's Day morning.
His equilibrium was tested fully on Friday morning, as prosecutor Gerrie Nel began his final push for the denial of bail by going firmly on the attack. Nel was adamant that the prosecution would assert Steenkamp had fled to the bathroom at Pistorius' luxury residence in the Silver Lakes community either to "escape an argument or a gun."
He also claimed Pistorius may have had his defense – his belief that an intruder had entered the house – prepared before the actual shooting took place.
"I have my gun, I want to shoot her, and when they ask me, I'll say it was an intruder," said Nel, giving his interpretation of what he believed to be the runner's mindset. "As soon as they confront me, I'll say it was a burglar."
Pistorius' sister Aimee and other members of his support looked disgusted at the suggestion, and were similarly unimpressed when Nel insisted he posed a flight risk, highlighting his access to a property in Italy where he has regularly trained during the European track season.
Nel likened the matter to that of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, still holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy in London and avoiding extradition to Sweden where he is facing allegations of sexual assault.
After Nel also issued stout criticism of Pistorius for not personally taking the stand, defense counsel Barry Roux argued for a charge of culpable homicide, a lesser charge than murder, and claimed that any intent to kill an intruder could not be read as intent to kill Steenkamp.
Roux also pounced on the holes in the evidence put forward by the stumbling testimony of Botha. That disastrous second afternoon for the prosecution marked the turning point from which the prosecution could not recover.
The bail ruling opens the possibility that Pistorius could return to athletic training, with his running coach Ampie Loew insisting he would like to see the 400-meter star back in training as early as Monday as a means to shifting his mind onto more positive things than the bloody events of Valentine's Day morning and the fatal shooting of Steenkamp.

Cornell Marketing needed a new button or icon design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 79 designs submitted by 29 freelance designers.
My client owns an electrical company, and needs a character designed to be the face of their campaign for electrical safety. The character needs to be modern and professional, enough so that they would have the ability to place this character on their company vehicles. The image they want is a "superhero electrical component," like a light switch, electrical receptacle, light bulb, etc. The character should have a modern feel, but not too cartoonish in nature, e.g. have a graphic level of realism . Also, would prefer Please ask if you need any clarification.
There is no specific target audience. The character should be easily and definitively recognizable as a superhero and an electrical component.
File format preference is Adobe Illustrator (AI, EPS); will only accept Photoshop (PSD) if the graphic is perfect and there is no other way to get it
Character needs to be easily recognizable as a superhero and an electrical component.

For Gunn students, an added bonus may offset the inconvenience of construction: Newly installed air-conditioning will blow cool air in old classrooms that students have long complained were stifling.
Throughout Palo Alto's 17 public school campuses, projects that have been on the drawing boards since the passage of a $378 million facilities bond measure in 2008 are finally coming to fruition.
The high school project price tags — $37.8 million for Gunn and $37 million for Paly — represent the largest yet under the bond measure, which was backed by 77.5 percent of district voters.
The stated goal was to "expand, upgrade and improve" campuses to extend their useful lives and accommodate enrollment growth.
Gunn and Paly are being prepared for capacities of 2,350 each (current enrollment is 1,879 at Gunn and 1,860 at Paly).
JLS and Jordan middle schools are being expanded to accommodate 1,100 students each (current headcount at JLS is 1,007 and at Jordan 983). Terman is slated to remain stable at 675.
At the fast-growing elementary level, up to 40 classrooms are being added city-wide to make room for a possible 900 additional students in the next five years.
Beyond the projects at Paly and Gunn, the coming school year will see major activity on the following campuses:
At Ohlone Elementary School, a new, two-story building with 12 classrooms — under construction since last fall — will be ready for occupancy by winter break.
At Terman Middle School, a late fall groundbreaking is likely for renovations that include a complete remodeling of the administration and library wing as well as the cafetorium food area; the addition of a drama classroom and miscellaneous classroom improvements.
At Jordan, JLS and Fairmeadow Elementary School, groundbreaking is likely shortly after the December holidays for various projects.
At Jordan, that includes a new, six-classroom wing paralleling the science wing now visible from Middlefield Road, as well as a new cafetorium that will be connected to the old cafetorium. The old cafetorium space will be reconfigured for music classrooms.
At JLS, a new, two-story building will contain 10 classrooms, with a new courtyard and amphitheater.
Construction at Fairmeadow will include a new two-story classroom building as well as relocation of kindergartners — and their play area — from classrooms facing East Meadow Drive to a wing next to the library.
Future rounds of construction will include a new, state-of-the-art performing arts center at Paly as well as a new, two-story classroom building at Duveneck.
