While the world's attention was focused for weeks on whether the Congress would extend the debt ceiling, some in that body were busy finding new ways to control the internet. The vehicle they chose for this latest attack on internet privacy is cloaked in the camouflage often favored by congressional nannies – protecting the children.
The legislation is the "Protecting Children from Internet Pornographers Act," and is being led by House Judiciary Chair Lamar Smith (R-TX) and Florida's Debbie Wasserman Schultz, chair of the Democratic National Committee.
The bill passed the Judiciary Committee July 28th on a 19 to 10 vote. Whether opposition to this privacy-invasive legislation, led by Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), will be sufficient to prevent its being fast-tracked for a vote of the full House this month, is uncertain. Its mere title, of course, makes it difficult for members to oppose it.
The problem with the legislation is that it sweeps far more broadly than necessary to protect children from internet predators. It would require, for example, that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) retain vast quantities of information on all customers, not just those on whom the government has a suspicion of guilt. Specifically, ISPs would have to retain the following information on all customers, for one year: names, addresses, credit card and bank account information, which websites they visit, and their IP addresses.
Supporters in Congress and the administration claim the law will be help federal investigators and prosecutors to identify and apprehend persons engaged in child exploitation. While this may be true, subjecting every internet user to having virtually their entire internet-use history maintained for 12 months simply to make it easier for the government to access information it deems necessary for certain investigations, is deeply offensive to Americans' legitimate expectation of privacy in using the internet.
The Committee debate on the legislation was heated; and gave rise to some interesting, if not particularly intellectual discussions. At one point — while defending the bill against criticism from Lofgren, who argued that the retained data obtained could even be used during civil cases unrelated to federal criminal cases – Chairman Smith tried to make the case that the courts were not part of "the government" and therefore would not have access to the information retained by the ISPs.
Lofgren also pointed out a major weakness in the purported objective of the legislation – its failure to stop someone from circumventing its reach simply by going to a library or coffee shop with an internet connection to engage anonymously in illicit activities. John Conyers, the top Democrat on the Committee, also expressed reservations with the bill; noting, "This is not protecting children from Internet pornography. It's creating a database for everybody in this country for a lot of other purposes."
Even Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI), who hardly has been a friend to privacy (the REAL ID Act is one of his signature pieces of legislation), found the bill problematic. He said, "[The bill] poses numerous risks that well outweigh any benefits, and I'm not convinced that it will contribute in a significant way to protecting children."
Julian Sanchez, a research fellow at the libertarian-leaning Cato Institute, pegged the legislation for what it is – a data grab by the federal government. He wrote recently that, the "handful of provisions in the bill that really deal specifically with child porn are a fig leaf for its true purpose: A sweeping data retention requirement meant to turn Internet Service Providers and online companies into surrogate snoops for the government's convenience."
Federal agencies have pushed since at least 2005 to enact legislation forcing ISPs to retain customer data for their ease of access. Let us hope this current effort fails.

Most porn sites now have links and pop ups that may include underage participants, thus any visit to any porn site would make a internet surfer a criminal. Even those who only want to see the girls gone wild videos (not to mention the paris hilton video).

Yeah…this is important stuff, the internet. Congress and the President need to spend more time focusing on the web and databases and should spend less time worrying about things like the gazillion $$$ deficit, a downgrade in the country's credit rating, unemployment and another recession.

"Most porn sites now have links and pop ups that may include underage participants"
This is absolutely false. "Most" sites do not, and typically clearly spell out (state specifically) that any models/actors/girls are at least 18 yrs of age and have their proof of age on file.
Their are sites that do cater to that but that's a different thing, and they're often not based in the US.

Our Federal Gov't has become a real monster, stealing our money and our privacy. The founding fathers would be sickened if they could see what they created. This is exactly the kind of stuff they wanted to prevent. The whole purpose of the Bill of Rights was to prevent the Federal Government from this kind of over reaching. To me this is prohibited as Unreasonable Search and Seizure. Sadly, too few people beyond Bob Barr are paying attention.

It never ceases to amaze me how you whiny, ever-repressed liberals want to protect your "privacy" at the expense of everything else. If you are not committing a crime, why are you worried about what information the government collects?

A recent book discussed the fact that the laws in this country have become so convoluted and wide sweeping that the average American commits 3 felonies every day, whether they know it or not. So the question is not whether or not you are doing anything wrong, but whether the government has decided to prosecute you for it. With all this additional data, they can now essentially hold every American hostage with the threat of prosecution, which is the very definition of a police state.

It seems like every other week we hear about some company that lost all of our personal information (names, addresses, phone, credit card) to thieves. These are companies that supposedly have the resources to hire people to properly protect this data and even they can't do it right. I don't like the idea of every little ISP out there saving my information where it can be hacked. If someone wants to enforce a law like this, then they have to enforce balancing law the requires that the information be stored off-line in a secure place where someone will be held responsible if the information is stolen. ID theft is more of a problem than child porn. By fixing one lesser problem, they make another, worse problem, worse!

When using the internet in this era of tyranny, technology and Godlessness, I don't expect to have a right to privacy. I assume one of the agencies in the federal government are listening or perhaps viewing an image of me even if there is a law against it. Everyone should realize by now that we are not living in Kansas where the Constitution of the United States was the enforced law of the land.
The Barr Code's reference to Congressmen giving rise to some interesting if not particularly intellectual discussions remind me of grandmother's reaction to having her constitutional gangrene left leg removed below the knee. She would talk incessantly about it as though it were a part of her governing body, etc, etc, etc.
Often we saw her rubbing her leg, scratching it, and swinging it from side to side. She would put on socks beginning at the left foot while wiggling her toes because, according to her, they were too stiff. Sometimes she would stand abruptly before reality rudely reminded her that the constitutional gangrene leg had been removed. But if you are a political neophyte, her actions might have you to believe her left leg is all good.
The Barr Code must be reprogrammed. If the tyrannical federal government or other subversives want an act to "Protect Children from Internet Pornographers," and or for the purpose of retaining names, addresses, credit card and bank account information, websites visited, and for IP addresses on all customers for one year, politicians know that there is no real law or particular "intellectual discussions" that's able to stop them in the era of tyranny, technology, and Godlessness.

You don't have to be doing something illegal to not want your activities under constant surveillance. There must and should be a place in the world that people can openly espouse unpopular views with out the fear of reprisal. If Slavery where still legal Anti Slavery advocates would be afraid to go to anti slavery sites for fear that the authorities might track them and put an end to the activism. There are better ways to protect children that tracking every action taken by every citizen. Here is an idea, invest a little in your social services. It might make a bigger difference to actively prevent abuse than to track someone who is witnessing the abuse post facto.

Today is Friday, March 21, the 80th day of 2014. There are 285 days left in the year.
IRS PHONE SCAM - The largest phone scam the Internal Revenue Service has ever seen has targeted more than 20,000 taxpayers, the agency's inspector general said Thursday. Thousands of victims have lost a total of more than $1 million.As part of the scam, fake IRS agents call taxpayers, claim they owe taxes, and demand payment using a prepaid debit card or a wire transfer. Those who refuse are threatened with arrest, deportation or loss of a business or driver's license, The inspector general's office started receiving complaints about the scam in August. Immigrants were the primary target early on, the IG's office said. But the scam has since become more widespread.
DRUG TRAFFICKING BUDGET CUTS - Budget cuts at the Coast Guard are coming at an unfortunate time. As the service, like other branches of the military, makes do with less, drug smugglers are increasingly turning to the high seas -- and challenging the Coast Guard's already strained resources. The Coast Guard patrols 95,000 miles of coastline, covering 4.5 million square miles of water. Federal spending cuts have forced the Coast Guard to reduce its operating costs by 25 percent. While helping the government reach deficit reduction targets, this is also threatening efforts to reach President Obama's goal of intercepting 40 percent of illicit drug shipments by 2015.
MILITARY SEX ASSAULTS A Pentagon report estimates as many as 26,000 military members may be sexually assaulted in a year and that thousands of victims don't come forward out of fear their careers might be derailed. The Service Women's Action Network are calling for legislation stripping commanders of the power to prosecute cases and refer them military lawyers. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., failed earlier this month to get the 60 votes needed to advance in the Senate. She is expected to bring the legislation back. Sen. Lindsey Graham said order and structure is critical to the military and taking commanders out of the decision will destroy cohesion.
MALAYSIA 370 SEARCH - Is the big tip, a red herring? 2 days after Australia announced the spotting on satellite of what looked like wreckage from Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, searchers still haven't found the debris. Bad weather Thursday plagued efforts to spot the debris, the largest piece of which would be as large as a shipping container. The weather and visibility is better today. The debris was spotted on satellite images some 1,400 miles from the west coast of Australia in the Indian Ocean. The Boeing 777-200 disappeared March 8 on a flight from Kuala Lumpur, the capital Malaysia, to Beijing, China, with 239 people on aboard.

ec: AJR won the drivers title and the makes win for Porsche. Your lead driver, Cort Wagner, captured the Porsche Cup, yet Porsche dropped you the next season for another team. In 2001 the factory came back and AJR went on a tear for the first half of the decade. With the assistance comes the added responsibility of advisors, whether merited or not. Is it worth giving up the independence? How do you look back at those days ?
AJ: Porsche did give me the first shot on the 2000 werks program, but I didn't have the financial resources. So Porsche gave the program to someone else, and although they won the championship, there were problems. The program came back to me in 2001 with a different level of support. We had a two-car werks program from 2001 through 2004 and a one-car program in 2005. During this time AJR won three team and driver championships. You definitely give up a level of independence. You follow the factory guidelines, which can be difficult at times. To get started, I had to turn over my engine building to Porsche. We had developed a very successful engine program, but in the end I felt it was worth doing in order to start the factory partnership. The wins and championships made it the right decision. To compete at that level it's important to have a werks program. That still holds true today in GT2 (GT). But when you can win on your own without werks support, as we've done in the past, it's especially sweet. If the financial support is there it's possible to go head to head with the factory programs. But it is very expensive.
ec: In addition to the ALMS GT class, AJR also entered the Daytona Prototype class in Grand Am for 2006. You seemed to have followed a Hollywood script, almost pulled off an overall for the Daytona 24, had no sponsorship, almost folded, and then Ruby Tuesday came to your door. This resulted in several dramatic wins and a promise of things to come. Running two separate series requires a logistical undertaking.
AJ: That's an understatement. Running both Grand Am in DP and ALMS in GT2 during the 2006 season was a handful. We still had some success with a 50th win at Houston with the GT2 car and four wins with the DP car. After such a strong start with the DP, the Grand Am Series felt it necessary to penalize the Porsche-powered cars. AJR was the only Porsche-engine DP that was winning, but they still did it. The rule change took us back to a top-three or top-five team.

If there's one thing I do think about when I'm hitting shots, it's my head. I like to keep it still during my backswing. I get into trouble when I move it down as I take the club to the top.
This is a problem because your head has to move down on your downswing in order to hit through the ball, and if it's already low you're going to hit it fat or, worse yet, lift it up through impact and catch it thin.

Authorities say Jack Michael Christensen got behind the wheel of a running bus, but he didn't get far.
MOORHEAD, Minn. — Police say a man believed to be intoxicated got behind the wheel of a bus that was left running at a Minnesota homeless shelter and steered it into a nearby snow bank.
Authorities say two other people were aboard the YMCA bus Friday at Churches United for the Homeless in Moorhead, but they exited safely. The vehicle sustained minor damage.
Jack Michael Christensen was booked into jail on charges of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, refusal to take an intoxication test and public urination. Police say the 48-year-old has no permanent address and had been convicted of at least two prior drunken-driving charges.
Witnesses said Christensen urinated in front of the shelter. When police arrived, he briefly fled on foot and pounded on the doors of a complex nearby.

There are two possible problems:
1) less likely, you are mixing ELF and ECOFF object files or libraries.
2) you've run into a limit in the current ELF linker in the size of the
.got section (which is related to the number of global variables and
functions in the program).
Assuming the second, there is a way that you can work around the problem
right now: turn some of your static libraries into shared libraries.
>From your link line, there appear to be three likely candidates:
-lvtkTcl, -lvtk, and -lGL. The link line for doing that is
gcc -shared -o <library>.so -Wl,--whole-archive <library>.a \
Now you have three options: (1) you can either put the newly created
shared libraries in one of the standard library directories, (2) if
you have a dedicated directory heirarchy for your application (e.g.
/usr/local/vtk/) you can put them in /usr/local/vtk/lib and add that
to your /etc/ld.so.conf, or (3) you can pick a directory (usually
the one the executable resides in) and add -Wl,-rpath=<directory> to
the link line _for the executable_.

You may as well be throwing away handfuls of money instead.
As part of my goal to live a more frugal life-syle I plan to not waste food.
I present to you PROJECT NO WASTE!!!
Now im sure this has been done time and time again and called many names but basically the rule is...
Whatever you spend money on at the grocery store, you eat! You don't let it wilt, mould, dry out or curdle.
Usually I spend about $150-$200 per fortnight. Which is loads of money on food when I am feeding only myself and sometimes cooking for 2. I always end up throwing out veggies, breads and other refrigerator items. Yet I still buy coffees and meals out.
This week I again spent $144 and when I got home I was like "Cody what did you actually buy?" In saying that here is my pathetic receipt.
Seeing this I decided enough was enough. I will use everything on here just to make it worth the purchase.
Now its going to be a work in progress to see how much money I really need to spend on groceries and the things I can come up with to not waste anything but I am excited for the challenge.
If you are interested in joining in I would love to see it. Post replies here or use #projectnowaste on instagram and twitter. You can always follow me on facebook and share pictures too. https://www.facebook.com/cody.rowlands.14

My latest addiction is TWiT.tvMarch 15th, 2012
I wish I were on TWiT.tv. A lot. I watch it, literally daily, and it both educates and entertains me. The TWiT network started, essentially, as a dream back in the days back of TechTV. When it morphed in to G4 TV and became more about entertainment than the real tech, several members of the old guard, the first tech evangelists, the true technology journalists all banded together and began This Week in Tech, TWiT. Several years after it began, it has taken off as the premiere network for all types of technology, including broadcast radio technology, daily tech news headlines, a question and answer program called The Tech Guy, ham radio, Google Specific, Android Specific, MacBreak weekly, Windows Weekly, gaming headlines and several other daily live webcasts on live.twit.tv, which can are recorded and released as podcasts for people who can't join live. For those who can join live, there's also a chat room. The community is busy, and a very fun group of people.
I used to listen to several weekly podcasts… including KOXM, TalkRadar, One Of Swords, Major Nelson's podcast, and so many more. I always thought about doing my own podcast. Just a weekly thing, talking about whatever came to mind – or whatever my blog was about at that time. I even thought it would be neat to do something like A Life Well Wasted – produced like a radio broadcast news article. But I've never so much as bought a microphone. I'm afraid I won't be interesting, won't have the time to podcast, or won't have anybody to podcast with (one man pod casts get pretty boring). So I've never gone ahead and recorded anything, other then a few clips for other shows (very few of them made it to air). But a man can still dream, and while dreaming, he can be educated and engaged by something as fascinating, and hopefully long-lasting & succesful as the TWiT Network.
What Microsoft wants to Accomplish with Windows 8March 8th, 2012
After the better part of a decade in the IT industry, I've learned one major thing: nobody wants to spend money. It blows my mind that computers, the things that all of your employees sit at for eight hours a day, are considered this horrible expense and a tedious chore to maintain or replace. It's how our society runs. Wall Street runs on a series of computer programs and digital exchanges. When your computer fails and you're stuck without one for three days, only then do you realize what a vital part of your business it is.
Why, then, do most companies not have a structure for replacing their PC's? They keep them for a decade or more, until they don't turn on one day, then "employee #326″ gets a new computer. In my field of work, I've run in to slews of 10+ year old computers – and people want RAM upgrades, or hard drives replaced, rather than swapping out the entire unit for $150 more than they're paying for this patch-work to keep them on life support.
So what does this poorly-planned businesss strategy have to do with Windows 8? It falls right in line with Microsoft's master plan. » Read more: What Microsoft wants to Accomplish with Windows 8
Download Windows 8 Consumer Preview Wallpapers hereMarch 2nd, 2012
If you're interested in downloading the beta (betta) fish wallpaper, or any of the other high resolution nature photograph wallpapers that are seen in the Windows 8 Consumer Preview (Build 8250), look no further. They can all be downloaded in a single zip file hosted here: Windows8_8250_Wallpapers.zip
Also, if you miss the good old days, you can still grab all of the wallpapers from the Windows 7 beta build 7100 released years ago in another zip file: Windows7_7100_Wallpapers.zip
For the full blown experience, don't forget to download the consumer preview and install it (may I suggest you do this on a 'spare' computer or a virtual machine)!
Download the Windows 8 Consumer Preview Beta now!March 1st, 2012
When you first begin booting from the CD, an abstract version of the Windows 7 "BETA" (betta) fish image appears. You know you're in for a treat. This is the Windows 8 "Consumer Preview" – or what most are calling "public beta." You can download it from Microsoft, in an easy to use ISO format here:
On this page you can choose your language, decide if you need 32 or 64-bit, and get the product key which will be required to install.
The installation is extremely straight forward and simple. At one point I was asked to login with my "Microsoft account." This, for those who may not be certain, is any existing Windows Live ID. If you're on Xbox Live, you've got a LiveID. When it asked for my phone number, I clicked next without providing one. This is a password recovery feature also provided on account.live.com.
I installed to a VMWare image, so I could avoid any potential data loss or the need to move my data around at all. So in my virtualized Windows 8 environment, I immediately went for Xbox Live. I have no intentions of doing performance testing as my desktop is actually a few years old and doesn't support hardware based virtualization. In other words it's functional, but not very fast. Although I had a few programs close out on me when trying to get them to load, I've been able to play a little bit of Cut the Rope so far. Yes, it's still fun, even with a mouse.
I'll have more to say tomorrow, but if you want to check it out, now's the time! Get downloading and enjoy!
The RageQuit Chronicles?February 16th, 2012
I haven't started writing it, yet. But, tell me: would you be interested in the journalings of a person overcoming "ragequit/ragethrow" type behaviors in gaming? You know, the guy who quits the game because he's going to lose, or freaks out and throws a controller out of anger? It perfectly descibes me, and I know I'm not the only one. Would anybody else like some video game anger management tips? Or are you content with breaking your controllers at $50 a pop?

Loved it!
I have stayed at the turtle suite at Kapoho Joes a few times now and I always love it. It is a small, quaint place to relax and listen to the ocean as you fall asleep. I loved the owner's, Art and Joan. They made me feel so comfortable and when I left I felt like I was leaving family. My favorite part is waking up to the breeze coming through the windows with fresh air, then walking out and sitting on the little porch with a nice cup of coffee. If you want to relax, this is the place to do it! So cute, so clean and so comfortable! I would recommend to anyone!

Converging Technologies
Rich functionality delivered by IT systems aids adoption of IP-based surveillance
Customers are constantly searching for new ways to gather, manage and store data to run their businesses more efficiently while maintaining budgets. This is especially true in the security industry where captured video surveillance footage and access control events are highly valued from a safety and compliance standpoint. With an influx in the number of cameras, especially high-resolution models, more surveillance video is being captured and analyzed today than ever before. At the same time, customers of all sizes and market focuses are finding new ways to capture and leverage information from multiple devices—video surveillance cameras, access control systems, video analytics and PSIM platforms—to develop reports and trends to enhance not only security but optimize internal operations.
The influx in the need for security data—from an increasing set of devices and systems—is driving a massive expansion in storage capacity, compute power and network bandwidth required to meet streaming video feeds. Using conventional IT designs, these new performance and scale requirements can only be met with the most complex and expensive legacy server, network and storage infrastructure. Emerging vendors offer a scale-out infrastructure alternative that distributes storage workloads over many appliances, integrates virtual servers into the same appliances and aggregates network performance to meet the functionality and scale needs of the application. The use of high-volume commodity server appliances as the underlying physical hardware simplifies system configuration and consolidates server and storage hardware to save footprint and power while tapping into the economics of high-volume commodity hardware. Therefore, it's now possible to scale to petabytes of capacity with hundreds of virtual machines using common appliances and standard Ethernet interconnects.
Security experts agree that it is impossible to monitor multiple live video feeds on a real-time basis. The human eye and attention span are simply not able to maintain vigilance for live detection of events. As a result, most surveillance data is used as a forensic tool. There are high expectations from users and law enforcement that video data from installed systems should be available for later viewing, regardless of events that might compromise recording integrity, such as power outages, disk failures, network switch problems and even operator error. Surveillance operators also expect that the search capabilities they find on YouTube—such as random access to video, search capability and filters for relevant new content—will be provided in today's systems. This use case is certainly not supported by traditional CCTV systems where single point of failure VCRs require interruption to record, are serially accessed and have no searchable identifiers. Much like audio CDs replaced eight-track tapes from the 70s, newer IP infrastructures are quickly replacing aging analog infrastructures because of the reliability, searchability and push-model distribution that match user expectations.
Leveraging standard Ethernet networks
All of this functionality required a new approach to meet the manageability and cost expectations of the video surveillance market. At the forefront of the revolution is the need for IP-based storage technology that could leverage standard Ethernet networks and provide unified storage and computing resources in a common appliance. This first wave of innovation cost reduced surveillance infrastructure to the end customer—up to 40 percent in power, cooling and data center build-out.
Now, we're experiencing the next evolution. As more security systems embrace IP infrastructure, storage vendors are incorporating even more functionality in appliances so that IT managers can handle surveillance and IT systems in a common way. Management of these multi-petabyte systems is quickly becoming the next battlefield as surveillance and IT users look to manage sprawling systems with the same or even less people.

Seahorse-shaped SAN ANDRÉS is a lively island with gorgeous (if often crowded) white-sand beaches, surrounding azure waters, fantastic diving and other natural attractions. Budget accommodation is concentrated in San Andrés Town, the capital – a busy whirl of unpretty concrete buildings, duty-free shops and careering scooters.
Though San Andrés Town has an attractive main beach of its own, the best beach is on Johnny Cay, the palm-shaded, iguana-inhabited island visible directly across the water. Numerous boats depart from San Andrés beach for Johnny Cay in the mornings around 9am; a return trip costs around COP$20,000, with the last boats returning around 5pm (make sure you remember on which boat you came). Visits to Johnny Cay can be combined with a stop at Acuario – a sliver of sand off the east coast of the island, where the water is swimming-pool clear – though on busy days you'll find yourself fighting for space among the other visitors, hawkers selling stuffed crab shells and piña coladas and stalls renting snorkelling gear; trips to both places cost around COP$50,000.
If you rent a bicycle or scooter, you can do an easy loop around the island, following the coastal road. Along the west coast, south of El Cove, you'll pass Piscinita, a beachside restaurant and snorkelling combo: for COP$2000 entry, you can swim with the many fishes who'll eat out of your hand. At the southern tip of the island is Hoyo Sopladór – a natural blowhole; when the tide and wind conditions are right, a jet of water shoots up to 20m up out of the hole in the rock. On the east side of the island, you're often likely to have the white-sand, windswept beaches of San Luis all to yourself.Read More
The best of island diving
The best of island diving
The islands' biggest attractions are to be found under the sea, and both Providencia and San Andrés have several reputable diving outfits who can introduce you to a whole new world, even if you're a first-time diver.
Great dive sites
Cantil de Villa Erica Turtles, manta rays and eagle rays to be found around this reef southwest of San Andrés; 12–45m depths.
Manta's Place Southern stingrays (rather than mantas) congregate at this Providencia spot.
Palacio de la Cherna Exciting wall dive that drops from 12m to over 300m, with reef and nurse sharks, lobster and king crab among its denizens; southeast of San Andrés.
Piramide Large numbers of morays, octopus and shoals of fish make this shallow reef dive in San Andrés one of the most exciting.
Tete's Place An abundance of schoolmasters, goat fish, parrotfish and more makes you feel as if you're swimming in a giant aquarium southwest of Providencia.

Got Milk, America?: It's Milk Day, so grab a cookie and start dunking. Milk has been a staple of human diets since cows were first domesticated (about 10,500 years ago in Turkey, if Wikipedia is to be believed). And those of you who are lactose intolerant needn't feel left out: You can still celebrate the day with almond or soy milk. One of our favorite milk tricks? Blowing milk bubbles through a straw. Just make sure you've got paper towels on hand–it never ends cleanly.

Tar & Roses
Farm-centric hot spot w/ wood-fired oven
A pricey ($30-60) new american restaurant with organic meat options in (@ 6th St) (Santa Monica) with critics pick & date night offerings.
Tue-Sat: 5:30pm-10:30pm Sun: 5:30pm-9:30pm
310 587-0700
Andrew Kirschner has developed a bit of a superstar status in Los Angeles within the past few years, but that doesn't stop him from personally greeting diners and taking names at his latest venture, Tar & Roses. The Santa Monica hot spot is Kirschner's love song to all things wood-fired, where small plates and snacks dominate the menu and the smoky scent of the wood chosen for that day (usually walnut) wafts through the narrow dining room.
Tar & Roses is all about high quality meats, boasting some serious nose to tail; you'll find braised lamb belly, bone marrow, and "korean style" steak tartar. (Little known fact: high quality organ meats are full of nutrients). We drooled over the chimichurri-topped hanger steak sourced from Boulder Valley Natural Farm (where antibiotics and hormones are forbidden). However, don't be fooled by the menu's preponderance of meat. We happily found appetizers to be heavy on locally sourced vegetables.The nearby Santa Monica Farmer's Market provides the majority of the produce, like the fiery, wood-roasted padron peppers drizzled in lemon juice and dusted with a salty bottarga. More seasonally fit was the bowl of roasted summer squash — yellow pattypan and mini zucchini were given a bold dressing of paprika, mustard and honey-topped pancetta.
For those seeking a meat-free meal: a luscious plate of ricotta gnocchi left us scraping the bowl clean. Lemon-infused and light as air, this dish had none of the cream- and potato-heavy elements of traditional gnocchi and was instead dotted with tender fava beans, spinach and asparagus. And for pescatarians? Being a stone's throw from the Pacific, it's hard to resist sampling Tar & Roses' seafood. Our advice? Forego the shellfish pot and instead opt for the gorgeous branzino which arrived whole, head and all, stuffed with pea tendrils and lemon and tasted nothing short of spectacular.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — Frank Coonelly, the president of the Pittsburgh Pirates, was sentenced Friday in connection with his arrest in December 2011 on driving under the influence charges.
A judge ordered Coonelly to enter a program for first-time offenders.
If he does not have a second offense in the next five years, his record will be cleared. If he does, he could face time in jail.
Ross Township police pulled over Coonelly in December just off of the Parkway North near the Perrysville exit.
They say his blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit.

TEAMS: Miami Marlins
TEAMS: Miami Marlins
The Miami Marlins have placed Casey Kotchman on the 15-day disabled list because of a strained left hamstring, their third first baseman to be sidelined with an injury. Miami recalled catcher Kyle Skipworth, the No. 6 pick overall in 2008, from Triple-A New Orleans on Friday to fill out its roster. The Marlins are carrying three catchers because it allows manager Mike Redmond to use backup Miguel Olivo at first base. With Logan Morrison and Joe Maloney also injured, the Marlins worked out four players at first base before playing the Mets because they have no one on the roster who primarily plays the position - the four shared three gloves. Greg Dobbs should get the bulk of the starts at first. Kotchman signed a minor league contract in February with Miami, his seventh team in 10 seasons.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Coming from the East Coast I'm not impressed with this school/district given the HYPE about Albany schools. This is my opinion and experience so far: My child has spent 4th and now 5th grade at Ocean View. Emphasis on math over reading. That's fine I guess because my child is a big reader. Science education is good but science teacher is rigid - my child now says "i hate science!" just because of the teacher. Music education is okay because of new music teachers this year. Communication is good. The principal is good but she really could use more help. My concern since the beginning is security. They do have "Doug" who's the best crossing guard ever(!) but he's only one person. Everything is wide open, no security guard, unsupervised drop off and pick up. I see young children walking home alone (like, 3rd graders) and 4th and 5th graders are just released alone at the end of the school day. I don't feel this is safe but that's me being from a big city. Overall - I wouldn't move here for this school. Maybe Cornell and Marin are better. We were placed at Ocean View which is the largest school because the system is overcrowded. I don't know if we'll stay for middle school.
A very fun and diverse community. Great teachers and staff dedicated to student success as well as a very active and supportive PTA.
Ocean View Elementary School is a vibrant place where diversity is the norm. There are families from all over the world in this community, as adjacent to the school is housing for graduate students at UC Berkeley. Families from this housing of course value education. My son has met kids from Iran, Equador, Israel, China, Korea .and on and on. Of course the academic learning is also important, and sometimes that is frustrating due to increased class size, but that is the case with most public schools in California. All in all Ocean View is a very special place and we are happy to be there.
I have third grade twins who have been in separate classes since they started at Ocean View in first grade. After two full years (and now into our third) and getting to know six teachers, I have to say we have had a wonderful experience. I've been so impressed by the classroom teachers' skills and experience, as well as the quality of many of the specialized teachers and the other staff. And I think we have an exceptional principal -- calm, caring, dedicated, and smart -- a true leader. The school is diverse in all respects, is a fantastic community, and has an active PTA. Like many public schools in California it has its challenges (aging physical plant, larger than desired class sizes, not enough funding for art, music, etc.), but it has been great for us.
My son started kindergarten at Ocean View this year. We have an older child that attended the top ranked school in Oakland a few years back and honestly I wasn't looking forward to returning to the politics and clicks of elementary school parents. I'm thrilled to say that I've experienced none of this at Ocean View. The teachers are wonderful and the parent community is truly there to help the kids learn (rather than prove something about themselves) - I highly recommend OceanView to anyone in the area.
Ocean View was our top choice school when we moved from Colorado to California. We wanted to live in Berkeley, but found that the Albany Unified School District was a better choice for our kids. When our son was surpassing all his grade level standards, the principal at Ocean View worked with us to find a way to meet his accelerated educational needs. We love Ocean View and its teachers and plan on sending our younger two children there when they are ready for school.
Ocean View School is part of the Albany Unified School District, located in Albany, CA. I have had two children go through Ocean View and we love it! The faculty and staff are both dedicated and talented. The parent population is highly educated and truly value learning. This is evident when you see how hard these students work!
OV is a great diversified school with teachers who care! Commuting became easier for pedestrians and bikers as there are new roads recently built.
We have been very impressed with the teachers at OV and their dedication and attentiveness to their students. The student population literally comes from all over the world. Children learn about and experience other cultures on a daily basis and this, in of itself, is a valuable learning opportunity!
We transferred in last year and it has been nothing short of miraculous. My child needed services that our former school would not provide. Ocean View staff and teachers have really made an effort to get to know my child and get him the services he sorely needed, including rearranging their schedules to accommodate his needs. I love the principal and the PTA is fabulous! I wish more parents were involved and could volunteer, but those that are involved are exceptional and all of the parents have shown a great respect for the children, teachers, and staff, giving Ocean View a real sense of community.
It is the school my daughter attended, I' d like recommend the principal who I often saw standing in the main gate of the school. She wanted keeping the traffic there in good condition, I think she is a responsible lady!
We've heard great things about Albany schools. So when we moved from Takoma Park MD (great Montgomery county schools) to Albany, we are happy to land at the very diverse Ocean View Elementary. My kids are in 1st and 3rd grade. And their teachers are fantastic.
Ocean view school is one of the best school in the bay area.my son is second grade and i was very happy last year and this year about the ,great teachers,staff,great leadership.
The teachers are wonderful and set education as the number one priority. There are reading labs where they break up the class into smaller sections in order for more personalized attention during reading development. It's a small teacher to student ratio so kids get the individualized attention that they need. The do various activities such as P.E., art, math lab, reading labs, and have various organizations that kids can be part of. Our school could improve if they had more clubs that the "smaller kids" could join such as chess for 5 and 6 year olds,or a dance or cheer team.
I moved my son to this school from Elk Grove CA and he loves it as much as he loves it out there. Excellent teachers! I do recommend Albany CA school district to other parents.
Great school! My child is in 2nd grade and it is a first year for us in Albany school district. Ocean View have been challenging, fun, and the teachers are awesome. Our school before that had very good environment, but very weak academics. Here we have both!
My son attends Ocean View since kindergarten. Staff are amazing, supportive, knowledgeable, friendly, and skilled. They understand students needs and adjust their teaching techniques based on that. My son enjoy every day of school to the fullest.
Ocean View is an incredible school, especially for science and math education. The nearby village also offers chess and music activities. This is a fine example of how great public education can be in California.
Ocean View is a wonderful school. It is a supportive and challenging working environment. My children came in half way through the school year (2nd and 5th grade). Both of their teachers were tremendously supportive and I could see the kids thriving. Their math, language and science skills were improving every day. If I compare what they were doing 6 months ago with what they are doing now, it is nothing short of amazing what they have accomplished. Their hard work and the incredible environment of Ocean Views teachers, principal, staff and students have given amazing results. Congratulations and thank you Ocean View!
Great and friendly International school with excellent and dedicated teachers and staff! My two kids both enjoy the environment, teaching style and activities!!

Presente! president Laura Guzman '10 is hopeful about the potential knowledge the celebration could impart. "We hope people walk away with a newfound cultural understanding and awareness," she said. "We want everybody to understand the richness and diversity within Latino culture. We also want to mobilize people to act on the social issues that affect our community such as immigration policy and media justice." Events such as the salsa dance, immigration panel and a Diversity Awareness House discussion about assimilation through language all embody Presente!'s goals of highlighting the Latin culture's vitality and richness.
The nine events held during the month are varied in scope so they appeal to a large swath of the St. Olaf community. "We want to reach out to the wider community with our efforts in the hope that at least one or two of our events will appeal to every St. Olaf student. We want to make sure what we do is relevant to the realities of the Latino community now," Guzman said.
Presente! member Nick Espinosa '08 said his experience studying abroad in Latin America has helped him recognize this community to which Guzman refers.
"My experience studying abroad in Mexico motivated me on a deep level to help others to recognize the dignity that is often denied oppressed people, and to be aware of how this is justified through their dehumanization in media portrayal," he said.
Latino art, Media justice, immigration issues and language assimilation are topics that have been and will be explored.
The celebration's schedule highlights the diversity and interplay of aspects of Latino culture. On Sept. 15, disc jockeys from the Cities mixed music in the Lion's Pause, followed on Wednesday, Sept. 17 by guest speakers from the University of Minnesota who discussed Latinos and media justice.
Espinosa attended the media justice event. "It was very telling that the vast majority of our stories on Latinos were about crime or immigration," he said. "We live in a time of growing anti-immigrant sentiment, and the media's negative portrayal of this group has encouraged discrimination and stereotyping, especially among those who have limited contact with Latinos."
A further sampling of the schedule includes two events focusing on immigration. The first is a youth workshop on Monday, Oct. 1, while the other is a panel of immigration experts the following Wednesday, co-sponsored with the Political Action Committee (PAC). Guzman expects the five speakers, hailing from various academic and professional groups, to be informative. "Immigration continues to be one of the most politically divisive and misunderstood issues in the current discourse," she said. "We really wanted to break down this debate in order to understand the future of immigration policy."
Each year Presente! sets the tone for the Diversity Celebration Committee's (DCC) 15 yearly celebrations. DCC coordinator Trisha Salkas '09 emphasized Presente's important role early in the year. "LHM is the first celebration of the year put on by DCC. It plays an important part in creating more awareness of DCC, particularly for the first-years," she said.
"For most first-years, Latino Heritage Month is the initial interaction they have with DCC," she said. "With a calendar full of quality events like this year, Latino Heritage Month creates opportunities for learning, celebrating, and experiencing various aspects of Latino and Hispanic cultures for the entire student body."

Nose tackle Steve McLendon has been ruled out for Thursday's contest due to a left ankle injury he sustained in Sunday's 27-11 win at Cleveland, while outside linebacker LaMarr Woodley is listed as doubtful as he continues to recover from a strained calf.
Woodley has missed Pittsburgh's last two games with the issue, with Jason Worilds drawing the start in his place. Al Woods is expected to fill in for McLendon in the base defense.
On a positive note, veteran end Brett Keisel is probable to face the Ravens after sitting out the past two games with an injured foot. The 35-year-old participated fully in practice during the week.
