FBI narrows down final locations for new headquarters
The House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on Government Operations wants to know how agencies plan to dispose of and consolidate more than 7,000 federal properties worth $350 billion. On the same day, the FBI announced the finalists for the site of its consolidated relocation.
DoD gave security clearances to thousands of 'federal tax cheats'
About 83,000 Defense Department employees and contractors, who held or were determined eligible for a security clearance, owed more than $730 million in unpaid taxes as of June 2012, according to a new report from the Government Accountability Office. Per GAO's recommendations, the Office of Personnel Management, Office of the Director of National Intelligence and DoD are now working to include tax-compliance checks to enhance security clearance processes.
Rep. Latham wants to beef up agency performance requirements
Rep. Tom Latham (R-Iowa) introduced a bill requiring agencies to use continuous process improvement measures. The bipartisan "Lean and Responsive Government Act" looks to improve efficiency and effectiveness in agency management.
Jessica Klement, Legislative Director, NARFE
The Government Accountability Office is in the middle of an ongoing, multi-year study on the pay system, and taking its findings to Capitol Hill. A House Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee looked at the General Schedule last week. Jessica Klement is legislative director of the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association. She shared her own ideas of how to reform the General Schedule on In Depth with Francis Rose.
Robert Goldenkoff, Director of Strategic Issues, GAO
Restructuring the way the federal government organizes its employees is all of a sudden a big focus on Capitol Hill. Bills to change or kill the General Schedule are already floating around, and more may come. The House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on the Federal Workforce, U.S. Postal Service and the Census looked at the future of the General Schedule with witnesses from the Office of Personnel Management, the Federal Managers Association, the American Federation of Government Employees and the Government Accountability Office. Robert Goldenkoff is Director of Strategic Issues at the GAO. He told the committee HR management in the Federal government has been on the GAO's High Risk list since 2001, but he said not all the news is bad on In Depth with Francis Rose.
Steve Bucci, Heritage Foundation
Federal officials say Chinese hackers broke into the networks of the Government Accountability Office and the Government Printing Office back in March. While news of Chinese cyber attacks on federal agencies isn't unprecedented, the March attacks, first reported by the New York Times, have some observers scratching their heads. They say it's unclear why those two agencies would be targeted -- particularly in the case of GPO. Steve Bucci is director of the Douglas and Sarah Allison Center for Foreign and National Security Policy at the Heritage Foundation. He's also former deputy assistant Defense secretary. He said the attacks shouldn't come as a surprise on In Depth with guest host Jared Serbu.
NOAA faced with tough choices as hurricane-tracking planes near end of lifespan
NOAA planes used for tracking and forecasting hurricanes -- known as the P-3 Orion -- are reaching the end of their lifespan, according to a report published by the Government Accountability Office.
GAO: Pentagon needs to connect dots between workforce planning, budget needs
The Defense Department is getting smarter about workforce planning making sure it has the right people with the right skills in the right positions. But DoD's five-year strategic workforce plan, released last fall, is short on details in a few key areas, according to a new report from the Government Accountability Office.
Brenda Farrell, Government Accountability Office
Over the past decade, Congress has stepped up pressure on the Defense Department to gather data about its civilian workforce, and to use that data to develop a strategic workforce plan. The Pentagon has a plan, but according to the Government Accountability Office, it has some gaps: It leaves out some of the information Congress mandated. DoD's workforce strategy doesn't appear to be tied to either its budget plans or its broader management strategies. Brenda Farrell is director of defense capabilities and management at GAO. She discussed the report on In Depth with guest host Jared Serbu.
Brian Lepore, Government Accountability Office
The Defense Department isn't following one of its own roadmaps. Back in 2012, defense planners devised a plan for protecting bases and installations from the potentially damaging effects of climate change. That's all started to affect DoD's planning, but there's a lot more to do. Brian Lepore is the director of Defense Capabilities and Management at the Government Accountability Office. He joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to discuss what the roadmaps mean.
John Pendleton, Government Accountability Office
The Pentagon says it's time to trim down the size and the cost of its headquarters staff around the world. The Government Accountability Office says the size of the overall workforce at the Pentagon's combatant commands doubled over the past decade. Overall spending to support the command headquarters grew by almost $1 billion, too. John Pendleton is director of defense capabilities and management of the GAO. He explained DoD's reduction plan and recommended ways to shrink the workforce on In Depth with Francis Rose.
New hallways' lead to strategic sourcing expansion
Under the Obama administration's strategic sourcing cross-agency priority goal, new commodity managers will oversee "hallways" for information technology, administration and human resources across government. The hope is that the managers and their teams of experts will be able to offer guidance and best practices to agencies when it comes to strategic sourcing.
Asif Khan, Government Accountability Office
The latest check on the Defense Department's push to full audit readiness uncovers a domino effect of problems. The Government Accountability Office says DoD didn't follow a plan to improve how it tracks contract payments. Asif Khan is Director of Financial Management and Assurance Issues at the GAO. Khan told In Depth with Francis Rose that because the Pentagon missed some steps of the plan, it's dealing with even more problems that could keep the agency from meeting an important deadline.
Belva Martin, Government Accountability Office
A group of foreign nationals working on one of NASA's major projects found a way to choose their own security clearances to gain access to sensitive technologies. The way they did it was pretty simple. NASA just let them do it. Belva Martin is director of Acquisition and Sourcing Management Issues at the Government Accountability Office. In a new GAO report, she looks at NASA's supply chain security. She shared a few ways the agency can tighten up its grip on In Depth with Francis Rose.
Small government agencies have ground to make up in privacy, cybersecurity compliance
A new report from the Government Accountability Office suggests the Department of Homeland Security and the Office of Management and Budget need to take a more active role in monitoring and guiding small agencies when it comes to their security and privacy-protection programs.
Debra Draper, Director of Health Care Issues, GAO
The Defense Department's showing negative side effects from a rough transition to a new healthcare contractor in the western United States. Those side effects are because of a 21-billion dollar contract award to a healthcare administration company new to the TRICARE system. Debra Draper is director of health care issues at the Government Accountability Office. She said on In Depth with Francis Rose that cost overruns and healthcare delays are cropping up because TRICARE management didn't pay close enough attention to the company's transition process.
Colleen Kelley, President, National Treasury Employees Union
An early House version appropriations language for 2015 would bring the IRS budget below sequestration levels in fiscal 2015. Earlier this week, the Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government approved funding levels that are more than $300 million below what the agency has to spend this year. IRS officials have been adamant that even that level is far too low. The bill comes right after warnings from the Government Accountability Office for the IRS to make some long term budget plans to better deal with an uncertain financial future. Colleen Kelley, president of the National Treasury Employees Union, is looking at what the cuts would mean for agency operations and the workforce. She tells In Depth with Francis Rose these cuts go too far. Read related article by Federal News Radio's Stephanie Wasko.
DoD needs updated cost savings data when considering furloughs
A new Government Accountability Office report says the Pentagon needs more comprehensive information about potential cost savings when it considers implementing future administrative furloughs.
Expert says budget, employee reductions force agencies to rethink mission goals
With an employment drop over the past year, agencies must adopt a "less with less" mentality, according Bob Tobias, director of Key Executive Leadership Programs at American University. He says executives must be honest with Congress about their limited capabilities.
GSA ends office supplies 2 contract; faces new protest on version 3
Vendors protested GSA's desire to extend the Office Supplies 2 contract for six more months. GSA says agencies can buy office supplies through the multiple award schedules. National Industries for the Blind protests the OS3 contract to the agency, not to GAO.

Blaine Chamber of Commerce
2002 was a very successful year for the Blaine Community
Chamber of Commerce. In February we held the second annual
Bite of Blaine which offered delicious foods from our local
restaurants. Attendance was outstanding, selling over 250
tickets for the event. Planning has begun for 2003.
The chamber also had its first ever old fashioned 4th of July celebration. This years festival was complete with live music, street fair, parade and ended with a spectacular fireworks display over Drayton Harbor. The celebration was a great success and the chamber is planning on making next years festival even bigger.
The chamber also held two fundraising events in 2002. In April we held the April Fools golf classic, organized by Ed Magner. In June there was the Skywater tennis tournament. A special thank you to Joyce Vanderpol who has organized this event for many years now.
Finally to end the year on a bright note we had the annual Christmas bazaar and downtown tree lighting. As always it was quite a crowd pleaser seeing Santa and Mrs. Claus arrive in Blaine on a fire truck.
The Blaine Chamber of Commerce continues to grow and work hand in hand with the city to make Blaine a place where people want to do business.

General Moly Inc. has secured the first phase of funding from its new Chinese shareholder Sichuan Hanlong (Group) Co. Ltd. amid continued protests to and delays in securing water permits for its Mount Hope molybdenum project in Eureka County, Nev.
The Lakewood, Colo.-based company already holds water permits at the site for agricultural uses, but needs the Nevada state engineer to convert them to mining uses before work at the site can begin. It also has applied for permits to withdraw water at well locations.

If you retain nothing else, always remember the most important Rule of Beauty.
"Who cares?" ― Tina Fey, Bossypants
(via 30rockasaurus)
Say it with me now, "AHHHHH!" -L
Next Thursday's Liz Lemon party is MANDATORY.
The series finale of 30 Rock will air on January 31. Let's all promise to be there for each other in our time of need and try to wave goodbye to it like human beings. We pay tribute to 30 Rock on the show today with excerpts from past interviews with Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin and Tracy Morgan. In 2011, Fey talked about working with Baldwin and Morgan:
They are different. It's funny because it's rare that we're all three together. The way that things are scheduled, I'll go on and it's either a day of all me and Alec … or all me and Tracy. It's fun when we're all together … but we kind of know each other by now, and we know the rhythm of who likes to shoot their coverage first and who likes to wait and go second.

The Georgia state Senate approved plans for voters to decide on legalizing the sale of fireworks in the state. The question could go on the election ballot next year if the proposal gets final approval at the Capitol.
Georgians routinely travel to neighboring state to buy fireworks legally. The sponsor of the measure, Sen. Jeff Mullis (R-Chickamauga) argues that Georgia would be better off to allow and regulate fireworks sales here.
"People drive hundreds of miles and they spend hundreds of thousands of dollars, and I was thinking, why can't we just do it here, embrace it and put as many safety features in it to make it as safe as possible for the children and adults and anybody," said Mullis.
The proposed constitutional amendment passed the Senate Tuesday on a vote of 44 to 5.
Mullis says that under his plan, fireworks would pay for trauma care and firefighting services. However, healthcare advocates warn of the potential for increased injuries, especially among children.
"You are encouraging the sale of a product that causes injuries and burns and trauma and then you want to tax that same product with money going to help fund the trauma system. It's kind of circular; it just doesn't make a lot of sense to me," said David Tatum of Chlidren's Healthcare of Atlanta.
The resolution now requires a two-thirds majority in the state House before the fireworks question can go on the ballot for voters.
Another measure spells out potential regulations for fireworks sales in Georgia. That legislation has not yet received a Senate vote.

What is the best way to stimulate a tired mind and body?
Between school, work, and social life, a typical day in modern society can be exhausting; sometimes from lack of sleep or just plain stress. I want to know what is the safest, most economical, most reliable, and effective method to feel energized and focused when sleep is not an option. Is it drugs (i.e. caffeine), focus games online (i.e. luminosity.com), certain diet, types social interaction, or something else?

Apr 6 2013: Jonathan, First congratulations on achieving Eagle Scout. In reference to your question different things work for different people. I had a small area I was responsible for and I encouraged a eleven to one break for lunch and gym time. I considered a lot of studies that said companies get about two hours of work from a employee in the morning and about two in the afternoon ... observation told me this was about true. I took the two in the morning but by adding gym time extened the work effort in the afternoon to about four. I found that exercise on a regular basis release chemicals into the body that revitalize you. That and the shower after gets me going.
There is a lot to be said for a proper diet, proper rest, and stress relievers. I cannot say what is best for you but try the inclusion of one or more of these and if they do not work then nothing was lost and ... unfortunately .... nothing gained.
I wish you well. Bob.
Apr 6 2013: Thanks for the comment! And thanks for the congrats!
Your own experience with this is really interesting. If i had more autonomy with my schedule, i would definitely take a break for fitness in the middle of my day. Unfortunately, I'm a senior in high school, taking several college-level classes. All the same, great anecdote and advice! Thanks :)

Comments about Durable iPad® / 10" Tablet Case:
We use this at home and in meetings. It protects the tablet from damage very well. We liked the zipper to keep it secure. The picture shows how can can use it. However, it would not stay open as shown. So we have to use it upside down. We also don't use one rubber corner since it puts pressure on the on/off switch by accident.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pines Wheat Grass is a concentrated green vegetable, naturally packed with nutrients that encourage optimum health. Conveniently offered in tablets and powders, so you can eat your greens every day with minimal effort. Pines Wheat Grass is organically grown, and packaged using no artificial ingredients.Pines Wheat Grass. It's real, it's natural, and it's certified organic — a whole food that's been harvested at the absolute peak of its nutritional value. Think of it as concentrated "solar energy," or simply as an off-the-shelf source of the very best that greens have to offer. Either way, it's good nutrition made simple: the vitamins and minerals your body needs, in the form your body was designed to use — without all of the additives and artificial ingredients you've been hoping to avoid!Pines Wheat Grass is a food with such a naturally high concentration of nutrients that seven tablets are equal to a serving of a deep green leafy vegetable.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Pines have stem removal equipment?
What is the recommended serving size, and servings per day? For Pines Wheat Grass, Barley Grass, or Alfalfa: 7 tablets or 1-1/4 teaspoon of powder (3.5 grams) is the recommended serving size. The benefits of eating your greens every day come from consistency over time, which is why Pines emphasizes the convenience of their products.
When is the best time to take Pines' products?
The USDA's new MyPlate says that you should eat more vegetables than any other food and it really doesn't matter when you eat your vegetables. Other primates such as gorillas are massive and strong animals with similar digestives systems to ours, and they eat massive quantities of green. That is why nearly every health professional and even the government says vegetables should be the foundation for health.
You may want to consume Pines Wheat Grass (or Pines Barley Grass or Pines Alfalfa) between meals with a good amount of water or other liquid. This helps your body take full advantage of the nutrients without competing with other foods, and may also take the edge off your hunger so you don't eat as much at meals. Mid-morning and mid-afternoon are great times for a green energy pick-me-up.
However, what's most important is that you use our greens at a whatever time that is convenient for you, including before, with or after your meal. The important point is that eat plenty of greens every day. For some people, that means right away in the morning, or right before bed. That way you are sure to start (or end) your day on a healthy note.
Are Pines products organic?
Pines Wheat Grass Powder, Barley Grass Powder, Wheat Grass Juice Powder, and Beet Juice Powder contain only organic ingredients.
Pines Wheat Grass Tablets, Barley Grass Tablets, and Alfalfa Tablets contain more than 98% organic ingredients.
Is Pines Wheat Grass equal to a shot of fresh wheatgrass juice?
The nutritional profiles of Pines Wheat Grass dehydrated whole leaf tablets and fresh juice are quite different, so any comparison is a rough estimate. Given that, roughly 1/2 teaspoon or about three tablets will offer similar nutrition to an ounce of fresh juice.
However, there's much more to the story.
Differences in soil conditions, growing time and environment lead to significant differences in nutritional content. Pines Wheat Grass is much more nutritionally concentrated and complete than fresh wheatgrass juice.
Because Pines Wheat Grass is grown as nature intended through cold months, outdoors in temperatures that are often freezing at night, it can grow slowly as nature intended. That results in a naturally concentrated, dark green leafy vegetable that provides a wide array of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and more, which are too numerous to be shown in our nutritional analysis. Greenhouse or tray grown wheatgrass juice, while highly regarded by many, simply is not given the time to develop fully, and can't compare nutritionally with wheatgrass grown the way nature intended. It is grown far too quickly, and instead of seeds being an inch or so apart as is natural to wheatgrass, the seeds are placed right next to each other, making it impossible for the plant to develop properly. These crowded conditions as well as unnaturally warm temperatures and humidity leads to mold and bacteria that can make the juice often taste bad and can lead some people to stomach upset.
And finally, Pines Wheat Grass costs between 20 cents and 50 cents per serving, while a shot of wheatgrass juice at the store can be $2.00 or more per serving. And most find that juicing wheatgrass at home is inconvenient, messy, and not economical when time and equipment is taken into account. For more information on this subject, please check out our article on Myths about Wheatgrass.
Pines recommend you check with your doctor or allergist to be certain, but it is likely to be perfectly safe.
As you probably know, wheat allergies are usually a reaction to the gluten found in the wheat berry. Pines Wheat Grass is a vegetable, harvested before the wheat plant forms the grain (berry), and it is after during the transition from vegetable to grain that gluten begins to form.
Pines has done multiple tests on our whole leaf products and never had a detectable amount of gluten in their whole leaf wheat grass or barley grass.
Pines is very careful to harvest their wheatgrass at the jointing stage and to harvest above the joint so that no gluten is in the product. Further, they test each batch to make sure that the product can be considered gluten free. Other companies harvest their products after the jointing stage which allows gluten to be in the finished product. With Pines Wheat Grass, you can be assured their wheatgrass is being harvested at the correct time and that it has been tested to make sure they can say it is gluten free.
Can I take Pines Wheat Grass during pregnancy?
Pines Wheat Grass (or Barley Grass, or Alfalfa) is perfectly safe to take before, during, and after pregnancy.
In fact, it's probably smart to eat Pines Wheat Grass and other organically grown greens during pregnancy, since they are a good source of folic acid, as well as many other important nutrients.
Pines Wheat Grass is also safe and nutritious for babies and children. Many mothers mix Pines Wheat Grass Powder with their baby's food. Often, these babies grow up loving green vegetables.Which is better, Barley Grass or Pines Wheat Grass?
There is little nutritional difference between Pines Wheat Grass and Pines Barley Grass.
However, barley grass products that Pines has tested from other companies have proven to be nutritionally inferior to Pines grasses, sometimes significantly inferior.
For those new to the grasses, they usually recommend Pines Wheat Grass based on reports from customers that they prefer the taste over barley grass.
The simplest answer is that Pines Wheat Grass (and Pines Barley Grass) offer more nutrients per penny than any other wheat grass or barley grass products on the market.
A few other reasons you may feel better buying from Pines:
Pines was the first company to offer wheat grass and barley grass to the natural foods market starting in 1976. Before natural food stores, Cerophyl was the multivitamin of choice for thousands of Americans starting in 1932 and was available in pharmacies. It was prescribed by doctors for numerous conditions based on research published in Medical Journals.. Cerophyl was simply dehydrated cereal grass, grown and processed in much the same way Pines is and packaged in the same oxygen-free amber glass bottles with the special caps designed by Dr. Charles F. Schnabel, "the father of wheatgrass." Pines grows and processes their products in rich glacial soils, and are owned by mostly local shareholders who share their goals about organic farming and stewardship of the land. The majority of profits go into wildlife refuges, converting land to organic farming and profit sharing with their employee community.
Additionally, there are differences between green foods packaged in plastic versus their nitrogen-packed amber glass, including: 1. Glass is completely non-toxic.
2. The oxygen-free atmosphere inside their glass bottles stops oxidation. The only other way to stop oxidation is to freeze the product.
3. Even after being opened, glass bottles keep product fresher than plastic. Plastic is a porous material that cannot hold a 100% nitrogen environment. Glass is not porous and gives off no chemical residue.
4. So, if you want the best, look for products packaged by Pines under their rigid quality control standards.

Classic Fudge-Walnut Brownies
I'd go through the rigmarole of telling you how busy I've been, how maybe I've sort of had a teensie emotional meltdown once during this month, etc, but I won't.
Instead, I'll just show you this brownie picture to take all our minds off of things.
Now isn't that better? Brownies fix everything.
Especially if they're Cooking Light brownies, so you're not wracked with guilt over stuffing your brownie crumb-coated face. By the same token, these are Cooking Light brownies. That means you'll see that you're supposed to cut a 9' pan into 20 squares. Allow me, friends: Pfffffffffft. Let's be real. Nobody's doing that. So, what if I more than doubled the calorie count? They were delicious AND it was insurance against eating more than one (and doubling the calorie count anyway).
These are heavy, decadent brownies with pockets of fudgey goodness. Tasty.
Classic Fudge-Walnut Brownies (from Cooking Light)
-About 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (the recipe says 3 19/50 ounces….sorry, what?)
-1 cup granulated sugar
-3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
-1/2 cup packed brown sugar
-1/2 teaspoon baking powder
-1/4 teaspoon salt
-1 cup bittersweet chocolate chunks, divided
-1/3 cup fat-free milk
-6 tablespoons butter, melted
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-2 large eggs, lightly beaten
-1/2 cup chopped walnuts, divided
-Cooking spray
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients (through salt) in a large bowl. Combine 1/2 cup chocolate and milk in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave at HIGH 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds. Stir in butter, vanilla, and eggs. Add milk mixture, 1/2 cup chocolate, and 1/4 cup nuts to flour mixture; stir to combine.
3. Pour the batter into a 9-inch square metal baking pan coated with cooking spray; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup nuts. Bake at 350° for 22 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs clinging (**Be careful not to bake too long--mine started to get burned on the edges because the center took so long**). Cool in pan on a wire rack. Cut into 20 pieces.
-Serves 20

OMG. I made this one, except without the walnuts (I didn't want anything taking away from the chocolatey-ness). We warmed them up and served with vanilla ice cream topping. Mmmmmm!!!!

The lack of historic monuments in Madrid is more than compensated for by the region around the capital. Within a radius of 100km – and within an hour's travel by bus and train – are some of Spain's greatest cities. Not least of these is Toledo, which preceded Madrid as the country's capital. Immortalized by El Greco, who lived and worked there for most of his later career, the city is a living museum to the many cultures – Visigothic, Moorish, Jewish and Christian – which have shaped the destiny of Spain. If you have time for just one trip from Madrid, there is really no other choice.
That said, Segovia, with its stunning Roman aqueduct and irresistible Disney-prototype castle, puts up strong competition, while Felipe II's vast palace-cum-mausoleum of El Escorial is a monument to out-monument all others. And there are smaller places, too, less known to foreign tourists: Aranjuez, an oasis in the parched Castilian plain, famed for its asparagus, strawberries and lavish Baroque palace and gardens; the beautiful walled city of Ávila, birthplace of St Teresa; and Cervantes' home town, Alcalá de Henares, with its sixteenth-century university. For walkers, too, trails amid the sierras of Gredos and Guadarrama provide enticing escapes from the midsummer heat.Read More
Cuisine around Madrid
Cuisine around Madrid
The food to be found in most of the areas around Madrid owes much to Castilian tradition with roast meats such as cochinillo (suckling pig) and cordero (roast lamb) providing the signature dishes in many restaurants. Cooked to perfection so the meat is deliciously tender and falling off the bone (in some restaurants they even cut the cochinillo with plates), meals are served with almost no side dishes, bar the odd chip or potato.
But one of the chief pleasures of eating in the areas around the Spanish capital is that local specialities still remain. In Toledo, for example, many of the more traditional restaurants offer carcamusa – a meat in a spicy tomato sauce, and game such as partridge (perdiz), pheasant (faisán) and quail (cordoniz). In Segovia Castilian roasts are to the fore, while in nearby La Granja the rather healthier judiones (large white beans) are on offer. Like La Granja, Ávila is also renowned for its beans, this time haricot beans with sausage (judias del barco), as well as its delicious, and massive, T-bone steaks (chuletón de Ávila), and for the most sickly sweet of desserts, the yemas de Santa Teresa (candied egg yolks). If all that proves too much, head for the oasis of Aranjuez where vegetables (in particular asparagus) and fresh strawberries are the local speciality.
First Sunday in February: Santa Agueda Women's Festival Married women take over city administration, and parade and celebrate in traditional costume.
Semana Santa (Holy Week) Formal processions in Toledo and a Passion play on Saturday in the Plaza Mayor at Chinchón.
Mid-April: Fiesta del Anís y del Vino, Chinchón Ample tastings of these two local products.
Thursday after Trinity, possibly in June: Corpus Christi Solemn, costumed religious procession in Toledo when the Catedral's magnificent sixteenth-century custodia is paraded around.
24–29 June: San Juan y San Pedro Lively procession with floats and music in Segovia.
15 August: Virgen de la Asunción Chinchón's celebrations include an encierro, with bulls running through the street.
15 August: Virgen del Sagrario Amazing fireworks display in Toledo.
17–25 August: Entertaining fiestas in La Granja, (near Segovia) Parades, bullfighting, fireworks and the fountains in full flow, and in Orgaz (near Toledo) which honours its patron saint with further celebrations.
Last week in August: Spectacular parades of giant puppets, and theatre, music and dance in Alcalá de Henares.
September & October
First weekend in September: Motín de Aranjuez Re-enactment of the Mutiny of Aranjuez in Aranjuez.
27 September: La Virgen de la Fuencisla The image of Segovia's patron saint is carried from the sanctuary in the Eresma valley to the cathedral.
25 October: San Frutos Fiestas, Segovia Concerts, celebrations and parades in honour of the city's patron saint.
Coming to terms with the past
Coming to terms with the past
El Valle de los Caídos is probably the most controversial and emotive physical expression of the Francoist dictatorship that still remains in present-day Spain. Partly built by Popular Front prisoners in the 1940s and 50s, this pharaonic memorial to the fascist triumph in the Civil War towers over a valley that conceals tens of thousands of corpses moved there under Franco's orders. After the burial of the founder of the Falange Party José Antonio Primo de Rivera and Franco himself, the mausoleum became a place of homage for neo-fascists who continued to commemorate the dictator's death every November 20 by parading their fascist paraphernalia at the site. But the future of the monument has finally been exposed to official scrutiny following the decision of the socialist government to set up a committee to decide how to turn the site into a monument to reconciliation.
The removal of Franco's remains is one option, but the destruction of the giant cross appears to have been dismissed as has the possibility of evicting the Benedictine monks who inhabit the site. The most likely outcome is the establishment of a museum or interpretation centre which will put the monument in its context and use it as a reminder of the horrors that resulted from the Civil War. But the debate has shown how raw feelings remain in Spain and how problematic the country has found the experience of coming to terms with its traumatic past.
It was not until 2007, over thirty years after the death of the dictator, that the socialist government introduced what became known as the "historical memory" law, which recognised victims of the Franco regime, prohibited political events at the Valle de los Caídos and provided some state help for the identification and eventual exhumation of the victims of Francoist repression whose corpses still lie in over two thousand mass graves scattered across Spain. Even that step was resisted by government opponents who preferred to turn a blind eye to the deep wounds left by the Civil War and its aftermath. But grassroots campaigns, often led by relatives of the victims, to dig up the mass graves forced the government to break its silence and confront the issue.
At last there is the prospect that Spain may finally try to come to terms with matters that have been swept under the carpet for so many years. As Catalan photographer Francesc Torres, one of the leading lights in the movement to shed light on Spain's obscure past, has said: "History is resilient. You can cover it, but it's not going away."

Two Louisville companies have been named to the Inner City 100 list, which each year recognizes the fastest-growing 100 inner city companies in the United States.
Pro-Liquitech International placed 84th and Consumer Choice Coffee placed 93rd. Both businesses are located in the Park Hill neighborhood of West Louisville, an area the city is helping revitalize.
"Both Pro-Liquitech and Consumers Choice have invested millions of dollars in their facilities and have created jobs, even during these tough economic times," Mayor Jerry Abramson said today during a visit today to Consumers Choice Coffee on 12th Street. "This honor is a testament to the companies' leaders and their employees."
Consumers Choice was founded in 1971 and roasts coffee and supplies coffee and tea to numerous retail stores and restaurants in the region. Pro-Liquitech was created in the early 1990s when Dave Dafoe left his corporate position at Brown-Forman to start a beverage development company that now has clients including Ocean Spray and Starbucks, among many others.
The Inner City 100 is an annual list created by the Initiative for a Competitive Inner City. The list helps highlight the importance of growing jobs and businesses in the urban cores of American cities.

Like they did as newborns, most babies grow quickly in weight and length during the first few months of life.
The first month of life was a period of rapid growth. As a 1- to 3-month-old, your baby will continue to grow at a similar rate, while also gaining 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 3.8 centimeters) in length per month. These are just averages — your baby may grow somewhat faster or slower, and is likely to experience growth spurts as well as times of slower growth.
The amount your baby eats at each feeding will gradually increase and by the end of 3 months, weight gain will slow from 1 ounce (30 grams) to about 2/3 of an ounce (20 grams) a day.
Your doctor will measure your baby's weight, length, and head circumference and track his or her growth pattern on a standardized growth chart (there are different charts for boys and girls). Generally, whether your baby is large, small, or medium-sized, as long as your child's growth pattern stays consistent over time, chances are excellent that he or she is doing fine.
If your baby is born prematurely, keep in mind that growth and development should not be compared with that of a full-term child.
Preemies will need to be followed more closely and may need to be weighed weekly during the first months to make sure they are growing properly. They have some catching up to do!
If your 1- to 3-month-old is not growing at the expected rate, or the growth rate slows, your doctor will want to make sure your baby is getting enough to eat.
The doctor may ask you about:
Most of the time, a baby's growth will simply be tracked over the next few months during routine well-baby visits. But if your doctor is concerned about your baby's growth, he or she will want to see your baby more frequently. Breastfeeding mothers may benefit from meeting with a lactation (breastfeeding) counselor who can make suggestions to improve technique.
You may have heard the term "failure to thrive," which describes a baby who isn't gaining weight normally but does not get at the cause. Sometimes, there may be a medical reason for slow growth, which would require further evaluation.
Call your doctor if your baby is not feeding well or if you have concerns about your baby's growth or development. Call the doctor immediately if your infant is vomiting every feeding, not wetting his or her diapers, has a fever, or seems listless or unresponsive.
In most cases, breast milk or formula is all a baby needs for the first 6 months of life, but some doctors may recommend introducing iron-fortified rice cereal at 4 months. Talk with your doctor before starting any solids or changing formula.

Recently, Spartan Race posted a picture of 74 year old Linda Barber taking part in the Malibu Sprint.
Many suggested that the picture was photoshopped and indeed faked. "No lady of that age could look as good as she did, complete with beautiful scarf looking fabulous and not at all fazed by what she had gone through up until that point", could they?
Spartan Race caught up with her and put this allegation to bed.
"I guess that for many people the Spartan Race would be too difficult, but they will never know for sure unless they give it a try", she shrugs nonchalantly. Cool and collected, Linda points out she's not new to the idea of pushing herself physically.
"I volunteer at Operation Gratitude. We send care packages to the troops who are deployed to the middle east and all around the world,( we just sent the 1 millionth box on Dec.7. 2013.) In 2011 the Merrill down and dirty mud run at Castaic Lake, Ca, donated a large portion of the proceeds to Operation Gratitude. That was the first time I had ever heard of a mud run, I wasn't quite sure what it would entail, so I declined the opportunity. But soon after seeing what it was all about and the fun everyone was having I was disappointed I didn't do it. A few months later, my son Kevin Kierce told me about the Spartan Race coming to Malibu and we decided to do it together with the Angry Bird Droppings. We have since participated in 2 other OCR's the 2012 and 2013 Malibu Spartan Races."
When asked why she keeps returning, she answers very matter-of-factly, "I keep returning because it is a wonderful opportunity to spend time with my son and in this last Spartan my grandson as well. When I was on the trails in Malibu I was very focused on the task at hand and of course enjoying the camaraderie of the other participants. And of course being with my son and grandson. "
Linda doesn't understand the commotion over her picture. On the course, she bumped into OCR veterans James O'Brien, aka, "The Muddy Suitman" and his running partner Stephen Hulsey, between them racking up in excess of 200 years, but still every bit as lively and as spritely as any other weekend warrior.
"I am a Puppy Raiser for Guide Dogs of America and to keep myself and the dogs in good shape we walk 3 miles every morning 6 days a week. I also work out with 10 and 15 pound weights 3 times a week. I also enjoy geocaching, that gets me out of the house and onto some local trials. I spend many hours each week working at Operation Gratitude. I am very blessed to have good health with no medical problems", she points out.
The confident, but modest grandmother points out that we shouldn't be so surprised.
"I do not think it is any big deal for someone my age to join in the fun and do what I can do. I work with ladies older that I and they don't seem to have any problems getting the job done."
Old school thinking. No whining. No excuses.
"Getting the job done."
If ever there was a phrase that encapsulates all of this, there it is.

An independent investigator is looking into how Nashaly Perez was able to leave her school undetected, but the mayor says the problem was with the school's staff, not the city's policies. NY1's Lindsey Christ filed the following report.
In the year since Avonte Oquendo ran out of his school and died, there have been many calls for "never again."
Never again should a student with special needs leave a school building unattended. Never again should school officials wait before calling the police and parents. Never again should a family learn the school system lost a vulnerable child they'd entrusted in its care.
"It's the law to send our children to school. It's the law for you to protect our children. It's the law for you to send our children back home to us. Because if we have to send them to you, we want them back," said Mary Jasper, the grandmother of a child who left his school.
Avonte's death demanded reform, Mayor Bill de Blasio said.
"It was a moment that crystallized for all of us, especially those of us who are parents, but really for all of us, the need to do something to additionally protect our children," de Blasio said on August 7.
On Monday, though, it happened again. A 15-year old with serious special needs disappeared from her school.
The city reacted immediately, removing the principal of P.S. 371 as the New York City Police Department searched for the child. Luckily, Nashaly Perez was found Thursday and reunited with her family.
"It's not acceptable that this happened," de Blasio said. "And I want to be very clear that anybody who works for me, and that means everyone at the DOE, is going to be held to a very high standard. And if this happens, anyone who had responsibility is going to feel some consequences."
The de Blasio administration, along with the teachers' union, had opposed the idea of requiring door alarms at all schools like P.S. 371 that serve students with serious special needs, as City Councilman Robert Cornegy had wanted. Ultimately, the Council passed a bill called Avonte's Law that merely requires the city to consider whether to install the alarms at each school.
The mayor said he still stands by the policy.
"This strikes me as human error," he said. "This does not strike me as an equipment problem. This does not strike me as the problem with lack of alarms. This strikes me as people not doing their job."
As of Thursday, the teachers and school aide charged with caring for Perez continued to work in the school.
