This year's ballot contains a number of highly complex measures but none is as bewildering as Proposition 37, which purports to provide Californians with information about genetically modified foods.
Even a conscientious voter who reads the voter's pamphlet and follows news coverage can be confused by the welter of claims and counterclaims.
"Proposition 37 is a simple, common sense measure," proponents tell voters in the pamphlet. "It doesn't cost anything to include information on a label, and it's phased in, giving manufacturers time to print new labels telling you what's in the food, or change their products if they do not want to sell food produced using genetic engineering."
"Prop. 37 isn't a simple measure, like promoters claim," opponents counter. "It's a deceptive, deeply flawed food labeling scheme that would add more government bureaucracy and taxpayer costs, create new frivolous lawsuits, and increase food costs by billions without providing any health or safety benefits. And, it's full of special- interest exemptions."
The Legislative Analyst's Office, which is charged with giving voters a plain- language summary of every ballot measure, does its best to explain what Proposition 37 would, and would not, do. But it's limited, because in reality no one knows how it would be implemented or what the ancillary consequences would be.
Elementally, it's a market battle between the organic food industry and traditional food producers and sellers. Those two factions have put up most of the campaign money, with the latter outspending the former perhaps six- or sevenfold.
But the downright weird wording of the measure, with myriad definitions and exemptions, appears to set legal traps, giving lawyers who specialize in class- action lawsuits a vast new territory to explore, much as occurred with Proposition 65, a 1980s-vintage measure requiring signs for products and locales with even the slightest connection to cancer.
Indeed, one of the drafters of Proposition 37 is a lawyer who was instrumental in Proposition 65, thus lending credence to arguments about its being legal quicksand.
The opponents also say that passage would trigger sharp increases in our food costs because California would be the only state with such a labeling requirement, thus requiring manufacturers to make California-only products, but that's speculation because no one knows whether they would change their products' content or just place new labels on them were it to pass.
The measure is sufficiently off-putting that almost every major news- paper in the state has urged rejection, some arguing that labeling, if warranted, should be done nationally rather than in a single state.
This is one measure that should give voters particular pause.

I knew Bella as a child. We used to hang out all the time. Then her mom and dad divorced and I only saw her over the summer when she came to visit Charlie, her dad. Over the years she stopped coming though. I only felt as though I had lost a friend. I got over it and made new ones. Just yesterday I heard she was coming back. Charlie told Billy that her mom was getting remarried and that Bella thought it best to move back here for a while. All these feelings came flooding back. How we used to make mud pies together and when we got older we would walk on the beach together. I could not, could I? It's not possible. Everytime I heard Charlie speaking of Bella I became more tuned into his conversation or I got a weird feeling in my stomach. But still there was no possible way....at least I don't think there is. A few days later Charlie drove up to my house. I was not sure what he was doing here at first. Usually he calls before coming over but this visit was a surprise. I quickly understood why.
"Billy, Jake open up it's Charlie."
I struggeld off of my old worn down couch and opened the door. "Hiya Charlie...." She was just the way I remembered her, only more beautiful. I stood there, mouth gaping open for a second.
"Bella! Its been too long. Come in, come in." Billy said rollling in his weelchair to the door.
"Jake are you going to let me by or just keep standing there like a..."
I quickly cut Charlie off "No, no. Um. Sorry, I just..." I moved out of his and Bella's way. I could feel my face turning red and turned quickly.
"Im just kidding with you boy. No need to get all worked up."
"Right" I said almost unaudible.
:"Well." Billy said. "Are you going to say hi or just keep standing there?"
I quickly cleared my throat, feeling myself blushing again. "Hi Bella."
"Hi." she responded. At that moment i realized all these years I had been lying to myself. I was in love with Isabella Swan...

I stood there motionlessly for a few minutes. I was still trying to soak in everything that just happened when Sam and Jared walked up. They looked around in confusion for a few moments.
"Where'd she go?" Sam asked circling the area.
"She left." I said monotonely.
"And you just let her go? She might kill again." Sam's voice was slowly rising.
"She's not our problem now. She's going off to be a better person."
"Better person?" Sam scoffed. "She's not human anymore."
"You know what I meant." I mumbled.
Jared finally spoke up. "Well, that's it then? She's gone...for good?"
"Yes." I simply said before turning away from them, phasing, and going back home.
Once I got home I found everything to be exactly as it was. Knowing that my dad was still over at Charlie's I took a quick shower and headed over to their house. I pulled into the driveway and sat for a minute. For some strange reason I hadn't noticed until now, how right everything was. My life was perfect. I had no reason to complain. I was lucky with what I was given. I have a roof over my head, plenty of food to eat, an amazing dad, friends, and girlfriend, I could run really fast, I was in school, and I met a really good person who was doing better for herself because of me. I had helped someone out and changed her life forever. This was how it was supposed to be. Me and Bella. Forever and ever. I opened up my car door and headed towards the house. Bella excitedly greeted me and took my hand as we went into her living room.
I sat down and looked around. Everything seemed so much sharper. I felt like I was in some kind of an alternate universe. It was almost like I had just awakened from some dream or...something awakened inside of me. I didn't realize how much I had been missing before. I had missed a lot of things. Mostly small things, but important things. For instance, the way my dad looked while watching a basketball game. It was like a child's face when they got a piece of candy. Bella...oh my Bella...she looked more beautiful than ever. I loved everything about her. I was watching her closely now. I had never noticed before that when she gets nervous, she constantly runs her hand through her hair, and that her smile is slightly crooked. Those were the reasons I loved her though. Her imperfections were what made me love her all the more. She caught me looking at her and gave me a confused look. I could tell that she thought something was wrong. I nodded towards the kitchen and she got up with me following behind.
Bella leaned against the kitchen counter. "What's wrong?" She asked causing her forehead to crease.
"Absolutely nothing. Everything is perfect. I love you, Bells." I pulled her in for a hug.
"I love you too." She whispered in my ear.
I gently pulled her away then. "Can I ask you something?"
"Sure." She said calmly. She had no idea what I was about to ask. I didn't even know I was going to ask. It wasn't something planned. It was a spur of the moment type thing. I loved her and...I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her.
"Will you marry me? Not now, but will you promise that we will one day? I can get you a promise ring if you like..." I trailed off seeing the look on her face. She looked horrified.
Bella pulled out of my grasp. "Jake--." I could tell that she was about to protest.
"Not now, but one day?" I asked.
"I...I..." She sighed. "Yes. Yes, I will."
I couldn't help but kiss her then. We didn't kiss in a passionate or needy way like usual. We just kissed. It was a soft, special, beautiful thing.
"Forever and ever." I whispered.
Lol, I made sure that they would so that it would have a nice ending :)
I had to end it. I felt like it was dragging on too long and I couldn't really think of anything to add to it, sorry
Yes, you will find out what happened to Bella and Jacob in Miranda's story :D

The series' narrative follows Dexter's life as he struggles to manage his identity as a killer with his growing desire to evolve as a human being capable of experiencing love. In this thesis, I will offer an interpretation of Dexter that varies from most of what has been written on the series by focusing on the theme of love and its role in shaping Dexter's developing sense of self. To consider the influence of love in the evolution of Dexter Morgan I will evaluate the significance of the figures of the Mother, the Father, and the Other throughout his life. Thus, I will be examining Dexter to explore the question: What is the significance of love in relation to the self? Dexter indicates that love is essential to the evolution of self. However, it also reveals the complex and contradictory nature of love as an experience that people rely on for personal fulfillment. The series has shown that Dexter's efforts in love are often ill-fated. Yet, in spite of this he continues to be compelled to experience love. Evaluating the influence of Eros (the part of the psyche associated with love) on the self, it can be argued that love shapes the self on a fundamental level. As an element of the psyche, Eros is susceptible to a number of forces that structure it. So if Eros is defined based on one's capacity for love, then love is a determining factor in regards to one's psychological construction. With this in mind, I argue that love can be understood within the framework of psychopathy and, in this respect, a discussion of love is key to understanding how Dexter creatively shifts the typical popular representation of the serial killer as the archetype of a psychopath. My critical analysis in this thesis on the influence of love in the life of Dexter's serial killer protagonist will illustrate that love is a form of psychopathy necessary for the existence of the self. Contemporary theories relating to subjectivity, selfhood, and love are critical to understanding and evaluating questions relating to the self. As such, a selection of these theories provided by Judith Butler, Adolf Guggenbuhl-Craig, and Jessica Benjamin will be utilized to interpret key scenes and sequences in Dexter that support my claim that the series indicates love is essential to Dexter Morgan's self-development. Additionally, I will be examining the aesthetic construction of the series, specifically its use of voiceover narration, to interpret how this relates to Dexter's evolution into a person capable of experiencing love. This thesis will demonstrate that, in significant ways, Dexter's sense of self comes to exist through his relationships with other people because they allow him to experience love. With this, ironically, Dexter asks us to recognize that love is a fundamental element in regards to the evolution of self by demonstrating its significance in the selfdevelopment of a figure that is not traditionally associated with love: the serial killer.

This differs from other work in this area wherein the oil drop is forced through the throat of a pore using external excitations. In the first simulation, an oil drop is placed in a small diameter tube filled with water and then flushed from the tube by injecting more water. The pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the tube is then recorded. Unlike past research in this field, this work employs dimensionless numbers and sensitivity analysis to more accurately analyze the effects of different parameters on the pressure drop. The model in this thesis also likely represents a novel simulation in which vibrations are used to aid in the formation of the water film. Tests, that use these vibratory excitations, are carried out as part of a second series of simulations, in order to study and visualize how vibrations help in the movement of an oil slug. The results show that different vibrations produce varying results. An interesting relationship between pressure drop and the various types of vibrations, as well as water film length and pressure drop, has been found. Visual evidence of the formation of a water film due to vibrations is presented. All numerical simulations are verified using core-annular ow. The results of this research contribute to ideas already available in the field of enhanced oil recovery practice using vibro-seismic techniques. Ultimately, this work could lead to improved oil recovery methods.

In recent years, the unique capabilities of UAVs have attracted a great deal of attention for both civil and military application. UAVs can be controlled remotely by a crew miles away or by a pilot in the vicinity. Vision-based control (also called visual serving) refers to the technique that uses visual sensory feedback information to control the motion of a device. Advancements in fast image acquisition/processing tools have made vision-based control a powerful UAV control technique for various applications. This thesis aims to develop a vision-based control technique for two sample experimental platforms, including: (1) a 2-DOF (degrees of freedom) model helicopter and (2) a 6-DOF quadrotor (i.e. AR.Drone), and to characterize and analyze response of the system to the developed algorithms. For the case of 2-DOF, the behavior of the model helicopter is characterized and the response of the system to the control algorithm and image processing parameters are investigated. In this section of experiments, the key parameters (e.g., error clamping gain and image acquisition rate) are recognized and their effect on the model helicopter behavior is described. A simulator is also designed and developed in order to simplify working with the model helicopter. This simulator enables us to conduct a broad variety of tests with no concerns about the hardware failure or experimental limitations. It also can be used as a training tool for those who are not familiar with the device and can makethem ready for real-world experiments. The accuracy of the designed simulator is verified by comparing the results of real tests and simulated ones. A quintic polynomial trajectory planning algorithm is also developed using the aforementioned simulator so that servoing and tracking the moving object can be achieved in an optimal time. This prediction, planning and execution algorithm provides us with a feasible trajectory by considering all of the restrictions of the device. The necessity of re-planning is also addressed and all of the involved factors affecting operation of the algorithm are discussed. The vision-based control structure developed for the 6-DOF quadcopter provides the capability for fully autonomous flights including takeoff, landing, hovering and maneuvering. The objective is to servo and track an object while all 6 degrees of freedom are controlled by the vision-based controller. After taking off, the quadcopter searches for the object and hovers in the desired pose (position and direction) relative to that. In the case that the object cannot be found, the quadcopter will land automatically. A motion tracking system consists of a set of infrared cameras (i.e. OptiTrack system) mounted in the experiment environment, which is used to provide the accurate pose information of the markers on the quadcopter. By comparing the 3D position and direction of the AR.Drone relative to the object obtained by the vision-based structure and the information provided by the OptiTrack, the results of the developed algorithm are evaluated. Results of developed algorithms in this section provide a flexible and robust vision-based fully-autonomous controlled aerial platform for hovering, maneuvering, serving and tracking in small-size lab environments.

Thermal-based recovery techniques, such as steam flooding, cyclic steam stimulation (CSS), and steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD), are effective and have been widely applied in the field to reduce heavy oil viscosity. However, thermal-based methods are costly and uneconomic, particularly for reservoirs with a thin net-pay. In Saskatchewan, half of the heavy oil resources are contained in reservoirs with a pay zone thickness of less than 10 metres. Non-thermal methods, such as cold production, and solvent-based methods, are the alternative approaches. Cold production, such as cold heavy oil production (CHOP) and cold heavy oil production with sands (CHOPS), suffers low recovery factor, which is approximate 5–10% of original oil in place (OOIP). Solvent-based heavy oil recovery methods represent a promising technique that has been extensively studied by many researchers. It has the potential to recover heavy oil resources more economically and in a more environmentally friendly fashion in cases in which the thermal-based method is not applicable or after CHOP/CHOPS processes. Currently, traditional solvent injection methods include continuous injection processes, such as vapour extraction (VAPEX), and cyclic injection processes, such as cyclic solvent injection (CSI). The low production rates of VAPEX are observed in field tests. CSI does not show exciting results due to the quick pressure depletion and the sudden reservoir energy loss, which causes the oil to regain its viscosity. Thus, a more effective solvent injection technique is urgently required to overcome the disadvantages in traditional solvent injection processes. In this study, a new cyclic solvent production (CSP) technique, cyclic production with continuous solvent injection (CPCSI), was proposed and evaluated through experiments and numerical simulations. Low permeability physical models were packed with Potter glass beads and then saturated with Western Canadian heavy oil samples at connate water saturation. Pure propane was used as gaseous solvent that was injected into the physical models continuously to extract the heavy oil while the producer was operated with a cycle of long shut-in time and short open periods. Solvent breakthrough time, heavy oil production rate, pressure profile, and asphaltene content were measured. The effects of drainage height, gravity, and production configurations were evaluated. Numerical simulations were performed using CMG STARS to history match the experimental results. It is found that the simulation can match the experimental results but it has the limit to predict the performance for different models. It was found that the heavy oil was diluted and drained down by gravity during the shut-in periods and then produced in the open periods via solution gas drive and gas flush. In comparison with VAPEX and CSI, CPCSI offers a free gas drive to flush the diluted oil out while the reservoir pressure is maintained so that the diluted heavy oil viscosity will not be re-increased. The CPCSI process can be an alternative optimization production scenario for applying solvent-based in-situ EOR techniques in Western Canadian heavy oil reservoirs.

F2C: Don't kill the Net to save it
The inimitable Susan Crawford warns us against Net regulation tunnel vision. Overreaction to perceived problems can open the door to harms worse than the original problems — the "solutions" can bite back. If, for example, we want to regulate Internet providers to stop them from blocking Voice-Over-IP, does that mean we have also acknowledged the power to regulate them for other ends, such as to demand that they enable wiretapping? How rapidly does anti-spyware legislation become full-blown software regulation? Instead of asking government to step in with small-fix regulations, we should take a bigger-picture view, looking for how we can re-open the network to resist these threats on our own.
One limited place we might ask for government help is antitrust — breaking up monopoly control of connectivity resources lets us solve many problems by our own choices by helping ensure the market provides those choices. I'm not sure I share Susan's optimism — bad regulation comes at us from too many sources and could stop many of our "route-around" opportunities — but I do think that if we disregard her advice, the situation looks even worse.

This is one of the most classic dishes in which pimentón plays a key role. It can be found in various versions right through central Spain. Depending on the area, you may find it made with red peppers almonds, cumin, and tomatoes: this is the La Vera version, with pimentón as the main flavoring. Once made with mutton, it is now inevitably made with younger lamb. The recipe comes from La Cocina Tradicional de la Vera by Jose V. Serradillo Muñoz.

Salt the pieces of lamb and leave them for 15 minutes. In a large flameproof casserole in which the lamb will fit, heat the olive oil gently. Fry the whole garlic cloves, remove and keep on one side. Add the whole lamb's liver, fry it and, when golden, remove. Then add the pieces of lamb and fry them, if necessary in batches, stirring until golden-brown and sealed on all sides. Add the chopped onion and the bay leaf.
Sprinkle the lamb with the pimentón, immediately stir in the wine, and heat gently to reduce it. Sprinkle in the flour, tossing well with the meat, add the stock, and cook for 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, pound the peppercorns, sautéed garlic, red pepper, a few drops of olive oil, and the fried lamb's liver to a paste. When the lamb is tender, stir in the paste and leave to cook for a further 10 minutes.

A flip to the past.
I'm reblogging my 2 year old post which has been sat at around 12,500 notes for at least a year.
Over the last couple of days It's jumped up and is approaching 16,000 notes.
I have been saying in my last couple of blog posts that I'm going to start posting more frequently again…I've got some projects I want to do and hopefully in the next few months I'll be back to regular posts.

I've decided to start doing some more portrait style Illustration. Since I finished Uni I've been doing a lot of very stylised stuff. I've got a few ideas for projects lined up that work well in this style, I also think this sort of illustration lends itself well to editorial work, so expect more.
I'm debating whether or not I should split my website in half and have a separate re-brand for portrait style (like above) and more stylised stuff, that's what the experts say anyway. I've already got 2 domain names.

In the future it will be published weekly as a web comic. lastly, the title isn't final but It's been "Letters From Lethia" for 8 months or so, apart from the last bit "the boy in the clouds" which I decided on as I coloured this, the titles may change but probably not.
More to come soon…

Wedding Invites
I've been busy the past few days doing some wedding invites for a friend. This is the final illustration for the invites. I've got some roughs and alternatives that I'll probably post over the next few days, mostly involving Pikachu and Hello Kitty. Obviously I didn't charge as neither me or the friend owns the rights to these characters, it was however a fun personal project.
If you'd like any personalised wedding illustration for anything from save the date's to wedding invites you can get in touch here. Keep in mind though I cant draw any copyrighted characters, the above image is just a fun example.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (340 votes).
In short: My favourite raceIn full: As usual this race was excellent. I now have 5 horse brasses and will be back next year for another one. Excellent family day out with kids entertainment and races. An ideal picnic opportunity. I can also recommend the sports massages (and the cakes!)Date of review: July 10, 2011
In short: Enjoyable race with lovely scenery and wildlife!In full: I really enjoyed the race today. The scenery was lovely! Particularly enjoyed running alongside wild horses (although not sure they liked it that much though!) The marshals were great, plenty of them, really helpful, encouraging and friendly. Makes such a difference so a big THANK YOU to them! I will most definitely be running this race again and will be recommending it to others!Date of review: July 10, 2011
In short: Now I understand why so many people speak so highly about this race!In full: Great scenery, the marshalls really were very friendly & helpful (refilling my water bottle at each water station), the cloud cover and breeze made the conditions great. Date of review: July 10, 2011
In short: BRILLIANTIn full: What a fantastic day. Managed a PB :) Marshall's were great. The galloping horses made for an interesting run too!Date of review: July 10, 2011
In short: I've now done it four times, and I'll be backIn full: I love this race. Great scenery, friendly marshals, cheery atmosphere (definitely one for beginners) and - happily - no need to get up at the crack of dawn to get there. I now have four horse brasses, and will hopefully be back to collect many more. My one small suggestion for improvement - tell the commentator to stop moaning about everything! Every year he complains about people not cheering enough, people getting too close to the tape aroud the course and so on, and this year had even more to moan about because he'd had a tyre blowout. Fair play, he's come a long way to do the job, but I heard a lot of supporters say he was doing their head in (my wife among them). Cheer up buddy - it's summer and you're in the beautiful new forest! Date of review: July 10, 2011
In short: Very well organised, off road race.In full: A bit cooler this year, which made for a more enjoyable race. The Marshalls were,as usual, excellent and very encouraging. There were also more toilets, which had always been a problem in previous years. This was my 20th entry and I hope to run many more.Date of review: July 10, 2011
In short: Well organised off-road race in the New ForestIn full: Well-marshalled, scenic course and lots of support from the commentator and spectators approaching the finish. It's a pretty flat course but I found the uphill bit after 8 miles hard work - thank goodness it was cloudy most of the way!Date of review: July 10, 2011
Date of review: July 10, 2011
In short: We saw an OwlIn full: ...and baby deer, ponies and lot of grins.Do it.Date of review: August 4, 2010
In short: Great race, but hot hot hot!In full: Still one of my favourite races, helped by the late start, great organisation, lovely scenery.Date of review: July 21, 2010

The Chicago Blackhawks outlasted the Canucks and skated out of Vancouver with a hard fought 2-1 win Saturday night. It was the first meeting of the season for these intense rivals but this game felt a bit different. The Canucks play a different type of game now for new head coach John Tortorella. In some ways Vancouver isn't the same but the victory must have been as sweet for Corey Crawford and his mates.
Crawford took over the game after the Hawks got the lead by scoring two times in a nine second span. That successful burst inspired the Canucks as they followed with their best charge of the night. As Crawford has done so often this season he gave his club a chance to win. Crawford allowed only one goal which came on a five on three power play. After that he held down the fort and when needed in the late going saved the day.
Vancouver is not as deep of a club as in years past and they were coming off a Friday night game. The Sedin twins along with Ryan Kesler had more ice time than any other forwards. The Sedins played over 25 minutes and Kesler logged 23:39 of ice time. The Canucks played a solid structure and were the more efficient club for much of the game. In the end the better, deeper team, with a goaltender who would not be denied won out.
Andrew Shaw made some mistakes and took a bad penalty which allowed the Canucks to have a two man advantage that led to their goal. Shaw made up for his miscues by being the only Blackhawk to consistently hinder Luongo. It was Shaw who redirected a Patrick Kane backhand pass that beat Luongo for the Hawks opening goal. Shaw and Kane recorded five shots each to lead the team.
Shaw's tally was exactly the type of goal his team needed. Luongo played well and was stopping everything. Basically Luongo was seeing the puck as the Hawks couldn't get much traffic to the net, except for Shaw. After Shaw's goal the Canucks had a defensive breakdown and Marcus Kruger made them pay. Kruger looked like a confident scorer as he put a well placed shot through Luongo's five hole for the winning goal.
Duncan Keith had an excellent game despite his partner Brent Seabrook looking sluggish until the late going. Joel Quenneville played his fourth line a lot in the final moments. In particular, Ben Smith had a very good effort and Quenneville must have thought the same.
Smith recorded a hefty 17:36 of ice time with 2:01 coming while the Hawks were shorthanded. Quenneville has shown a lot of confidence in Smith and that bodes well for him. Michal Handzus was activated and could be playing soon. Smith has earned more ice time and most likely will being staying in the lineup when Handzus returns.
Quenneville will sort out the playing time as his squad prepares for a week which will feature four games in six days. First the Blackhawks will travel to Edmonton for a Monday night encounter.
Crawford played so well Quenneville could be reluctant to give the net to rookie Antti Raanta. Although it seems like it, Crawford can't play in every game. My thinking is Quenneville may want to give the rookie a couple of starts this week.
Three games down and four to go on the circus road trip. The Blackhawks are in a position to have a winning trip if they take care of business in the next two games. Edmonton and Calgary can't be taken lightly but they aren't playoff caliber teams.
Al's Shots
The Hawks won 57% of the faceoffs on Saturday.
Everyone except for Shaw was over 50% at the dot.
Smith led the team by winning 5 of 7 draws for 71%.
Keith led all Hawks with 24:39 of ice time.

An alderman, who first told FOX 32 News about his city income tax proposal two weeks ago, offered new details Monday and won praise from the Chicago Teachers Union.
Ald. Bob Fioretti said Chicago does not face a public employee pension crisis. The government funds that write retirees' checks could soon be broke, but Fioretti called it a revenue crisis. He appealed for a new income tax on the 600,000 commuters he said work in Chicago, but live elsewhere.
"If those people who live outside the city, but work here, paid as little as 1% in their taxes we could generate more than $300 million annually," Fioretti says. "This could help stabilize our pension funds and reduce class size in CPS schools."
$300 million, though, falls far short of the $1.1 billion additional dollars that current state law requires Chicago to pay next year to pension funds for police, firefighters and teachers. The Chicago Teachers Union opposes any move to reduce the cost of retirement benefits.
"Revenue is the issue," says Stacy Davis Gates, Political Director with the Chicago Teachers Union. "Pensions are not the issue. He proposed a commuter tax. He also proposed other innovative ideas."
Among Fioretti's other ideas: broadening the city sales tax to apply to services that he did not specify today. He's also proposed taxing the international financial exchanges based Downtown. Experts said Fioretti's tax proposals would likely require approval from the Illinois General Assembly and the City Council, where they would be a tough sell.
"I think it's a bad idea," Roosevelt University Professor Paul Green says about Fioretti's proposal. "I don't think you want to set up city-suburban fights. It's bad enough as they keep fighting for the various business locations as United and other places leave the suburbs and come to Chicago."
Commuters are not happy about the proposed tax.
Several Chicago commuters told FOX 32 they think the tax is a bad idea and the city should have been saving money to use for pensions.
"I don't think it is a good idea," one person said.
As Ald. Fioretti lays the groundwork to run for mayor himself, he used some of his toughest language yet attacking Mayor Emanuel. Quoting a poet, Fioretti suggested Emanuel is "building a second city" for Chicago's elite, "a Gold Coast Heaven" sequestered from the "low-end Hell" where he said Chicago's "damned" reside.
Several city officials say the tax may be a tough sell.
FOX 32's Lisa Chavarria contributed to this report.

Famous celebrity feuds
Lily Allen and Courtney Love
Lily Allen and Courtney Love clashed at an awards ceremony in London in 2010, where they reportedly had to be separated after a heated row. The next day, Lily took to Twitter to call the Hole singer a "paranoid drug addled lunatic" but denied that things had got physical. "I would never fight with her, as a rule I don't pick on crazy old ladies," she tweeted.
Courtney responded in kind, saying, "I don't pick fights with insanely deluded irrelevant friendless unattractive children who no one I know even close to likes."

A Nashville man is in trouble all because of something he got in the mail.
The FedEx package was delivered to 230 Rudy Circle, but the person who delivered it was not a FedEx employee - he was an undercover detective.
The detective delivered 7.9 pounds of marijuana.
Police say the suspect, Jonathan Wilson, accepted the delivery. Moments later, he was charged with a felony drug offense.
Police say Wilson had the marijuana mailed to his home.
Channel 4 has found five cases so far this year that involved drugs being sent in the mail that were intercepted by police. In one case, drugs were mailed to a nail salon. In another, warrants were served at a Nashville nightclub.

text: Ottawa Senators forward Jason Spezza will have back surgery Friday to repair a herniated disk. Senators general manager Bryan Murray said it's too early to give a timeline for Spezza's return, but the team is hopeful he'll be play again this season. ''It's just the best thing to do at this point,'' Murray said Thursday. ''You probably could take days off and play a game here and there, but that doesn't make any sense for him or us. So getting it done, hopefully getting it cleaned out, will allow him to come back at 100 percent and continue his career.'' Spezza's back problems flared Sunday in a shootout loss to Pittsburgh. He missed the next two games, after contributing two goals and three assists in five games this season. Spezza, 29, had 34 goals and 50 assists last season, finishing fourth in the NHL with 84 points . . . The Capitals traded center Zach Hamill, a former Bruins No. 1 draft pick (eighth overall in 2007), to the Panthers for forward Casey Wellman, a UMass product, in a swap of minor leaguers. The Capitals also acquired former University of New Hampshire forward Peter LeBlanc from the Blackhawks for future considerations . . . As expected, Greg Jamison missed his deadline to buy the Coyotes before a lease agreement with the City of Glendale, Ariz., expired. He had until midnight Thursday to buy the team under the terms of the lease, but was unable to get the money or investors he needed. He said will continue to attempt to purchase the team.

Amanda Knox spotted at UW as she plans lucrative book deal
Amanda Knox was spotted strolling around her old university in Seattle as her life returns to normal after being cleared of murdering British student Meredith Kercher.
The American, 24, listened to music on her headphones as she visited the Washington University campus. She was also seen cycling, chatting on the phone and shopping in her home city.
Knox returned to Seattle in October after being freed on appeal after four years in jail in Italy.
The former exchange student is tipped to get more than $942,480 for her memoirs after she charmed publishers in the US.
They were impressed with her "soft-spoken, smart and almost scholarly" manner as she vowed to tell all about her arrest and imprisonment over the murder of her roommate.
Her book is based on diaries she wrote in jail.
"It'll be a bestseller, and of course there are TV and film rights to the story -- and that makes it very attractive," a source said.
But some publishers are steering clear, as doubts linger over Knox's version of events. Her conviction for slander was upheld by a court in Perugia last year after she falsely accused bar owner Patrick Lumumba, 40, of killing Kercher, from Coulsdon, southeastern England, in 2007. And Tuesday, Italian prosecutors filed an appeal against her murder acquittal.
"It's a huge gamble," one publisher said.Copyright © 2014, The Morning Call

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) - A state prosecutor has raised challenges to a trial that ended with a self-help author imprisoned for the deaths of three people following a sweat lodge ceremony.
Attorneys for James Arthur Ray are seeking to have his conviction on three counts of negligent homicide overturned or to have a new trial. An appeal calls jury instructions and the conduct of county prosecutors into question.
Assistant Attorney General Craig Soland responded Monday and also included the state's own appeal. He's challenging a decision that kept a doctor from testifying at trial, along with a jury instruction granted to the defense and another denied to the prosecution.
The Arizona Court of Appeals set the Monday filing deadline after granting three requests for an extension and threatening to sanction Soland if it wasn't met.

Recipe: Braised Goat Shanks with Prune, Shallot, and Brandy Reduction
As we end Meat/Un-Meat month and we give you a last recipe or two for meat, I feel that it's worth mentioning this benefit again: when we eat meat, I believe it should be in full consciousness of the animal that died so we can eat.
Goat, and to some extent lamb, is a very good meat to remember this by. It hasn't been so squeezed into styrofoam trays and shrink wrap. When I buy my goat from my local butcher (who also raises the goats, lambs, and beef cattle they butcher) I remember that this was one unique animal, one real living thing. It wasn't a walking piece of nameless, interchangeable protein. (Chicken breasts and ground hamburger... did they grow that way? We really could be forgiven for thinking so - when was the last time you saw a chicken with feathers or beef cow with tail?)
Of course, it's a perfectly logical response to the sight of walking chickens, lambs, pigs, and cows to say, no, those are living animals and I don't really want to eat them. I have quite a lot of sympathy towards vegetarianism, and it makes so much sense to me, in fact, that sometimes I wonder why I'm not a vegetarian. Am I just too calloused? Too hard-hearted? Do I lack the PETA gene? Hmmm. I'll leave that question aside for now, and return to the central point.
My personal opinion is that those of us who eat meat on a regular basis should not be squeamish about where our meat comes from. We should be willing to take it all — bone, shank, tail, nose, ears — and do honor to the animals that we eat by using everything up from end to end. This isn't my idea, of course; responsible butchering and use of the whole animal has been good practice around the world for thousands of years.
One of my favorite examples of this consciousness of meat comes from Barbara of Tigers and Strawberries, a truly fantastic food blog. Barbara allowed her daughter Morganna to go and help a friend butcher a cow she had helped raise by hand. She was there when they killed the cow, and she helped butcher all of it into meat that would be stored for her friend and her family. You can read the post here:
• Morganna: The Adventures of an Ethical Omnivore in Training
I don't mean to preach: I am hardly the best example of this at all. It's just a little lecture I give myself from time to time, and I do feel that it's part of the price I ought to pay for being an omnivore. If I'm willing to eat the goat, I also shouldn't be bothered when I have to pick out a few stray hairs from the meat. This was a living thing, and I hope that as it nourishes me I can use it responsibly.
And now, all that to say — here's a recipe for goat! I'll let you be the judge on whether it's a responsible use of some very delicious and meaty goat shanks. We certainly enjoyed it. I attempted a prune and shallot sauce after having a perfectly sublime version at a favorite restaurant last winter. Mine wasn't nearly so sublime, but it does complement the goat well. Prunes are less sweet than rich and meaty; they have a deep tannic flavor that goes well with goat and lamb.
Braised Goat Shanks with Prune, Shallot, and Brandy Reduction
2 goat shanks (3/4-1 pound each)
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper
1/2 pound shallots, chopped
6 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup prunes, minced
1/3 cup brandy
1 cup chicken or beef broth
1 cup white wine
1 sprig rosemary
1 bay leaf
Preheat oven to 325. Brown the goat shanks on all sides in a heavy Dutch oven. Salt and pepper liberally and set aside.
Heat a little olive oil in the same Dutch oven. Cook the shallots and garlic until softened and fragrant. Add the minced prunes and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes. Add the brandy and stir to deglaze.
Place the goat on top of the shallot and prune mixture in the Dutch oven. Pour the white wine and broth over top and bring to a light simmer. Add the rosemary and bay leaf. Cover and bake in the oven for two hours.
When the meat is tender and pulling away from the bone, remove from the oven. Put the shanks on a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Scrape out the prune and shallot mixture under the meat and puree it with a stick blender or in a food processor. Return to the Dutch oven over medium-high heat and reheat, stirring. If the sauce is very thick you may want to thin it out by whisking in another cup or two of beef broth or wine. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Note: A note on finding goat. Goat is a great meat for eating locally; you just don't find goat in the local grocery store, usually, so when you do find it you can be almost sure it was raised responsibly on a small farm. I usually buy goat from my butcher, but this time I was at Whole Foods and discovered that they carried goat meat raised just a few miles away.

I wholeheartedly agree with you, Faith. I recently bought a Jidori chicken from a stand at a farmers market catering to mainly Asian customers. This meant that the chicken came with its head and feet still attached. While I was prepping it (I roasted it Zuni-style!), I had to, at one point, cradle its head in my hand as I moved it on the cutting board. I felt a strange sort of affection for this bird and a deep appreciation that it gave its life for me to eat. Confronting the reality of my meat-eating ensures that I am a more careful, less wasteful omnivore. It's something I think all meat-eaters should do every once in awhile!
ditto. I get annoyed by people who like to pretend what they're eating isn't an animal, (I've known people who only eat meat that isn't 'animal-shaped'). either go veggie or respectfully acknowledge that you're eating a dead creature.
Here is a good video on meat: http://meat.org

i made this a few nights ago - it was my first time cooking goat at home. i had to make a few substitutions (dates for prunes, red onion extra garlic for shallots), but i loved the result. it was probably a little sweeter than some might have liked from the dates, but it was perfect for me. the meat was tender though not quite as falling-off-the-bone as i had expected, and actually not as gamey either. it's such an easy preparation, i'm sure i will be doing it again soon. thanks!
I just tried this and it's a surprisingly good combo. I played a wee bit with the spices and strangely added beer instead of wine. and it came out fantastic!
Thank you, Faith, for such thoughtful commentary about being a meat eater who also happens to be fully conscious and responsible about that choice...as a former vegetarian, i appreciate the perspective! We are blessed to have a small-herd goat rancher nearby where ethical practices always prevail.
As for this recipe -- i have prepared it three times now and have found it to be foolproof and easy to modify. Like a previous poster did, i substituted red (purple) onion for the shallots and beer for wine, with wonderful results. Another successful tweak was to add a few dried cherries, apricots, and raisins (while reducing the quantity of prunes slightly). I recommend a longer cook time at lower temps...three hours total (instead of two), with the first two hours at 300 degrees and 275 for that last hour.
I serve with truffled mashers and steamed veggies. Pairs beautifully with a nice Pinot Noir or Zinfandel...cheers!

Although most babies with breastfeeding difficulties have problems related to getting enough milk, a few have the opposite problem--handling too much milk. Some mothers have such a strong let-down that the baby cannot handle the volume of milk.
If your baby chokes, gags, or pushes off of the breast a minute or two after beginning to feed, an overactive let-down may be the cause.
Most babies do learn to handle let-down as they mature, but until then you might take the baby off the breast until the milk flow slows. Try using only one breast each feeding. Some mothers find it helps to position the baby so that the back of the baby's throat is higher than the nipple, so that the milk has to "travel" uphill during a let-down, which slows the flow. Another option is to try pumping through the let-down immediately before a feeding.

It's definitely better than the first
With more variety in the way the enemies attack, it's a lot more replayable than the first. I haven't had the fortune of actually beating the game (couldn't have failed it without the Dimkin), but, nevertheless, it's still a blast to play. My only critique is that I feel the playing field is too small and doesn't allow enough reaction time for evading the said Dimkin. Other than that, its a great time-waster with my favorite Badlander. I think my most memorable game consisted of chasing after a grub falling off to side, only to get assed by a Dimkin that was hiding off-screen.

The course on typed tagless-final embeddings of domain-specific languages has been presented at the Spring School on Generic and Indexed Programming (SSGIP) < http://www.comlab.ox.ac.uk/projects/gip/school.html > at Wadham College, Oxford, UK on 22nd to 26th March 2010. This page collects the notes for the course in the form of the extensively commented Haskell and OCaml code.
These lecture notes introduce the final approach slowly and in detail, highlighting extensibility, the solution to the expression problem, and the seemingly impossible pattern-matching. We develop the approach further, to type-safe cast, run-time-type representation, Dynamics, and type reconstruction. We finish with telling examples of type-directed partial evaluation and encodings of type-and-effect systems and linear lambda-calculus.
We will be talking about ordinary data types and (generic) operations on them. The expression problem will make its appearance. The first-order case makes it easier to introduce de-serialization and seemingly non-compositional operations.
Intro2.hs [3K]
Symantics: parameterization of terms by interpreters
Intro3.hs [2K]
Initial and Final, Deep and Shallow, First-class
ExtI.hs [<1K]
Algebraic data types are indeed not extensible
ExtF.hs [2K]
Adding a new expression form to the final view: solving the expression problem
Serialize.hs [7K]
Serialization and de-serialization
SerializeExt.hs [4K]
De-serializing the extended language
final_obj.ml [2K]
The traditional application of objects to represent extensible data types. Alas, the set of operations on these data types is not extensible.
final_mod.ml [3K]
Tagless-final embedding using modules
final_dic.ml [3K]
Tagless-final embedding with objects emulating type-class dictionaries. Both the language and the set of its interpretations are extensible.
PushNegI.hs [3K]
Pushing the negation down: the initial implementation
PushNegF.hs [3K]
Pushing the negation down: the final implementation
PushNegFExt.hs [4K]
Pushing the negation down for extended tagless-final terms
FlatI.hs [2K]
FlatF.hs [4K]
Flattening of additions, the initial and the final implementations
PushNegFI.hs [4K]
The final-initial isomorphism, and its use for implementing arbitrary pattern-matching operations on tagless-final terms.
< http://www.comlab.ox.ac.uk/ralf.hinze/SSGIP10/Slides.pdf >
Ralf Hinze, in Part 7 of his Spring School course, has derived this `initial-final' isomorphism rigorously, generally and elegantly from the point of view of Category Theory. In the first-order case, both `initial' and `final' are the left and the right views to the same Initial Algebra. The `final' view is, in the first-order case, ordinary Church encoding.
Higher-order languages are data types with binding, so to speak. In the first part, only the interpreters were typed; we could get away with our object language being unityped. Now, the object language itself becomes typed, bringing the interesting issues of interpreting a typed language in a type language ensuring type preservation. It is this part that explains the attributes `typed' and 'tagless' in the title of the course.
IntroHOT.hs [3K]
The illustration of problems of embedding a typed DSL into a typed metalanguage
Either the Universal type (and hence spurious partiality, type tags and inefficiency), or fancy type systems seem inevitable. The problem stems from algebraic data types' being too broad: they express not only well-typed DSL terms but also ill-typed ones.

Shin-Cheng Mu: Typed Lambda-Calculus Interpreter in Agda. September 24, 2008
Shin-Cheng Mu solves the problem of the type-preserving tagless interpretation of simply-typed lambda-calculus, relying on dependent types and type functions in full glory.
IntroHOIF.hs [6K]
Tagless-initial and Tagless-final evaluators
TTFdB.hs [7K]
Typed, tagless, final, with de Bruijn indices: Expressing the type system of simply-typed lambda-calculus in Haskell98. No dependent types are necessary after all. The types of methods in the Symantics type class read like the axioms and inference rules of the implication fragment of minimal logic.
TTF.hs [7K]
Typed, tagless, final, in the higher order abstract syntax (HOAS). We illustrate extending the DSL with more constants, types, and expression forms.
TTIF.hs [8K]
Initial-final isomorphism, in the higher-order case
TypeCheck.hs [12K]
De-serialization: (Dynamic) Type Checking
In contrast to an earlier version of the type checker, we use de Bruijn indices and obtain a much clearer code. The code is quite similar to Baars and Swierstra's ``Typing Dynamic Typing'' (ICFP02). However, the result of our type-checking is an embedded DSL expression that can be interpreted many times and in many ways, rather than being merely evaluated. The set of possible interpretations is open. Also, our code is written to expose more properties of the type-checker for verification by the Haskell type-checker; for example, that closed source terms are de-serialized into closed target terms.
Typ.hs [8K]
Type representation, equality and the type-safe generalized cast
We present an above-the-board version of
Data.Typeable , in the tagless-final style. Our implementation uses no GHC internal operations, no questionable extensions, or even a hint of unsafe operations.
< http://www.comlab.ox.ac.uk/projects/gip/school/tc.hs >
Stephanie Weirich some time ago wrote a very similar type-checker, but in the initial style, using GADTs. The comparison with the tagless-final style here is illuminating.
Our goal here is not to evaluate, view or serialize a tagless-final term, but to transform it to another one. The result is a tagless-final term, which we can interpret in multiple ways: evaluate, view, or transform again. We first came across transformations of tagless-final terms when we discussed pushing the negation down in the simple, unityped language of addition and negation. The general case is more complex. It is natural to require the result of transforming a well-typed term be well-typed. In the tagless-final approach that requirement is satisfied automatically: after all, only well-typed terms are expressible. We impose a more stringent requirement that a transformation be total. In particular, the fact that the transformation handles all possible cases of the source terms must be patently, syntactically clear. The complete coverage must be so clear that the metalanguage compiler should be able to see that, without the aid of extra tools.
Since the only thing we can do with tagless-final terms is to interpret them, the CPS transformer is written in the form of an interpreter. It interprets source terms yielding transformed terms, which can be interpreted in many ways. In particular, the terms can be interpreted by the CPS transformer again, yielding 2-CPS terms. CPS transformers are composable, as expected.
A particular complication of the CPS transform is that the type of the result is different from the type of the source term: the CPS transform translates not only terms but also types. Moreover, the CPS type transform and the arrow type constructor do not commute. For that reason, we have to introduce an extended Symantics class, ESymantics, which makes the meaning of function types dependent on a particular interpreter. As it turns out, we do not have to re-write the existing Symantics terms: we can re-interpret any old terms in the extended Symantics. Conversely, any extended Symantics term can be interpreted using any old, legacy, Symantics interpreter. The CPS transform is an extended Symantics interpreter proper.
The ordinary (Fischer or Plotkin) CPS transform introduces many administrative redices, which make the result too hard to read. Danvy and Filinski proposed a one-pass CPS transform, which relies on the metalanguage to get rid of the administrative redices. The one-pass CPS transform can be regarded as an example of the normalization-by-evaluation.

Olivier Danvy: Lecture notes on type-directed partial evaluation. The lecture notes are based on his POPL96 paper.
We build on the embedding of the ordinary simply typed lambda calculus with de Bruijn indices described earlier. An object term of the type
a was represented as a value of the type
repr h a where the binary type constructor
repr is a member of the class
Symantics . Here
h stands for the type environment, assigning types to free variables (`hypotheses') of a term. Linear lambda calculus regards bound variables as representing resources; referencing a variable consumes the resource. We use the type environment for tracking the state of resources: available or consumed. The type environment becomes the type state . We follow the approach described in Variable (type)state `monad' .
We represent linear lambda terms by Haskell values of the type
repr hi ho a , where
hi stands for the variable state before evaluating the term and
ho stands for the state after evaluating the term. To be more precise,
hi and
ho are the types of the variable states. We can determine the types and hence the state of the variables statically: As usual, the type checker does abstract interpretation. In our tagless-final encoding,
lam has the following type
lam :: repr (F a,hi) (U,ho) b -> repr hi ho (a->b)The expression
(lam e) has the type
repr hi ho (a->b) provided the body of abstraction,
e , has the type
repr (F a,hi) (U,ho) b . That is, in the environment extended with a term of the type
a , the body must produce the value of type
b . The body must consume the term at the top of the environment, changing the type of the first environment cell from
F a to
U (the type of the used variable).
A trivial modification turns the embedding of the linear lambda-calculus into that of the affine lambda-calculus, which allows to ignore bound variables. K combinator becomes expressible.
LinearLC.hs [11K]
Commented code defining the typed linear lambda calculus and its two interpreters, to evaluate and to show linear lambda terms. Later we add general abstractions imposing no constraints on the use of bound variables.
Jeff Polakow: typed final-tagless HOAS interpreter for linear lambda calculus
Message posted on Haskell-Cafe on March 26, 2013.
< http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2013-March/107215.html >
Polakow's tagless-final linear lambda-calculus interpreter relies on higher-order abstract syntax, rather than de Bruijn indices of LinearLC.hs. The interpreter explained in the posted message has only arrow types and integers. Attached to that message is the interpreter for the full linear lambda calculus with additives and units.
