The Daily Senator
Arizona Senate — 45th Legislature
Riddle of the Day:
What am I?
I start with "e"
and end with "e"
but contain only one letter.
(see bottom for answer)
Floor Schedule:
Monday 11:30 am
Tuesday 9:30 am
Wednesday 10:00 am
Thursday 10:00 am
Inside This Issue:
Senator Joe Eddie Lopez 1
Today in the Senate 2
Upcoming in the Senate 3
Riddle Answer:
An envelope
Senator Lopez has spent much time in public service. He
says, "I consider that to be a person's greatest calling."
Senator Lopez is currently serving his sixth year in the
Senate, following six years in the House of
Representatives. Prior to that, he spent four years on the
Maricopa County Board of Supervisors. He also
represents Arizona in the Tourism and Economic
Development Committee of the NCSL. Senator Lopez is
also a National Advisory Panel member of the Hispanic
Border Leadership Institute. He also serves as a member
of Mexican-American Legislators Policy Institute. Senator
Lopez is a member of the Senate committees on
Education, Family Services and Transportation.
Education, employment and healthcare issues are most important to Senator Lopez. He
says it "a great opportunity to devote oneself to these things." Progress is slow; education
is still bad for Latinos and Native Americans and only 50% of those who begin
kindergarten graduate from high school. Senator Lopez has also had an active voice on
the equal wage issue, introducing SB 1278 this session. Medical care for the poor is also in
bad shape, and Senator Lopez had hopes of being more successful in addressing these
issues and curbing the problems. "I have been able to at least maintain a level of service
to the community," he says. "Things haven't gotten worse." Senator Lopez adds that,
though it can be frustrating sometimes, the legislative process does work.
Senator Lopez is a full-time legislator. "I look at this as a job, and I made a promise to my
electorate that I would serve full time." The title is not important to him; having been
able to address important issues is "probably the most gratifying thing for me," Senator
Lopez says. He visits schools and constituents whenever he can, and has extensive
knowledge of his district. Senator Lopez puts an extraordinary amount of time and effort
into his job.
In addition to his work as an elected official, Senator Lopez served six years on the
Phoenix Union High School Governing Board, and has co-founded and remained active
in three organizations. These are Chicanos Por La Causa, Inc., Valle Del Sol, Inc. and the
Barrio Youth Project. Senator Lopez also serves as Chairman of the Phoenix Human
Relations Commission. Senator Lopez has a wife, two children and two grandchildren.
He has lived in Maricopa County since 1949.

Excellent film quality and beautiful scenery. These films are not readily available from other sources. The only thing that could make this package better would be including the other two Gunsmoke films: "Gunsmoke: The Long Ride;" and "Gunsmoke: One Man's Justice." My husband is an avid Gunsmoke fan. He was surprised and well-pleased when the package came.

I love this movie. It's one of my all time favorites. I already owned the VHS, but decided to 'upgrade' to the DVD. I'm very disappointed with this low-tech DVD. There's no menu, no sub-titles, no extras, no nothing. You put it in your machine and it plays. I may as well have kept the VHS.

USPS makes case for ending Saturday delivery as postal reform push continues
Wednesday - 2/13/2013, 4:45pm EST
Lawmakers in the Senate are taking another crack at comprehensive postal reform legislation after efforts last year fizzled.
The U.S. Postal Service's worsening financial situation led Postmaster General Pat Donahoe to announce last week the agency would end Saturday mail delivery beginning in August.
But Donahoe's announcement divided lawmakers on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. The postmaster general told the committee during a hearing Wednesday the decision was necessary to save $2 billion a year and to begin shoring up the service's funding shortfalls.
But further legislation — to allow the agency to leave the federal health-insurance system and start its own and to end a requirement to prefund retiree health benefits — is needed, Donahoe said.
"If legislation is not enacted — and soon — to provide the necessary reforms and flexibilities to achieve savings and generate new revenues, we will all be back here again, discussing the same issues," he said in his prepared remarks.
Does USPS have authority to cut Saturday delivery?
However, some senators questioned Donohoe's legal authority to end Saturday delivery.
Over the years, Congress has inserted a measure blocking a five-day delivery schedule in its annual appropriations bills. But because the government is currently operating under a stopgap continuing resolution, postal officials interpreted that to mean they had the authority to reduce the delivery week, Donahoe said.
But because the CR extended funding levels from the previous year, why wouldn't the policy rider on Saturday delivery also carry over, Sen. Mark Pryor (D-Ark.) asked Donahoe.
"It is our interpretation, based on what my attorneys have told me, that we are clear to move ahead on this," Donahoe said. "I would implore this Congress not to put any other restrictions on us from a six-to-five-day perspective," he said, citing opinion polls showing the American public supports the move.
"That really wasn't my question," Pryor responded. "My question was: What is your legal authority to do it. You said you're satisfied you have legal authority. I'm not. I'm not sure the committee is; I'm not sure the Congress is."
Donahoe: USPS needs more flexibility
Changing the delivery schedules would give the postal service more flexibility, without which it will continue losing money, Donahoe told the committee.
"We can return to financial stability and we can do so with no impacts or burdens on American taxpayers," he said in his prepared remarks. "One key to success is gaining enhanced flexibility to adapt to a rapidly changing marketplace. This flexibility will enable us to remain profitable, by giving us the tools to operate more efficiently, create new products and innovations and to control costs. Absent this flexibility, the postal service will continue to experience sustained losses, in spite of our long-term efforts to reduce costs."
Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), the ranking member of the committee, seemed to agree.
"There's really 536 postmaster generals, unfortunately," Coburn said. "And the goal of our reform ought to be that there's one. And that we give you the flexibility to do the service, to keep the standards there and have a system that offers the best service at the best price with the best quality the country can have."
In the absence of legislation, USPS has undertaken a number of other cost-saving measures. The service has reduced its workforce by 193,000 workers since 2006, Donahoe said, consolidated 200 mail-processing facilities, cut hours at 13,000 post offices nationwide and reduced 21,000 delivery routes.
Cummings predicts a bill by the end of March
Reps. Darrell Issa, the chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the committee's ranking member, kicked off the Senate committee's hearing.
Cummings said the two parties — and the two chambers — agree on about 90 percent of the issues surrounding how to restore the postal service to solvency. "The people in this very room can make it happen," Cummings said.
There were, however, significant differences between last year's Senate-passed version of postal reform and the types of legislative changes the House sought. The House never passed a postal reform bill out of committee.
But Cummings said he believes it's possible for Congress to complete a bipartisan bill by the end of March, when the current continuing resolution expires.
Later in the hearing, Sen. Tom Carper, the chairman of the Senate committee, also pressed for urgency.
"If we're still here, in this committee or in this chamber (in the Senate or the House) on August 5" — the official date USPS plans to end Saturday delivery — "debating this issue and postal reform legislation, we have failed," Carper said. "It's imperative that we act."

Hunter and Michaels with Grave Digger's Dennis Anderson and his son Weston "Teeny" Anderson.
Hairy NASCAR Fan
Monday - Friday
When Hunter was in grade school, the nuns told the students to come to school dressed as what they wanted to be when they grew up. While fellow students wore suits and lab coats, Hunter wore sunglasses and a radio station t-shirt. The school never had career day again. Born and raised in Ohio, she escaped and went to college in Virginia Beach because the brochure showed students on the beach. After 4 years of radio there, she moved to Florida and has been with WIND-FM since 1999. She is a breast cancer survivor (2012) and hopes a cure will be found in her lifetime. She helps raise funds for research and to help with the needs of others battling the disease. Hunter resides with her husband Steve and their dog Spike. Favorite WIND-FM moment? The day I was hired.

Barry Michaels can't remember a time when he didnt want to be on the radio. Well, except for that brief time when he either wanted to be a jet pilot or a gunslinger. Over 41 years, Barry has worked in such diverse markets as Miami, Baltimore, Phoenix, Sacramento, Houston, Dallas, and at one time via The ABC Radio Networks. Barry has been recognized with ADDY awards for excellence in broadcast commercial production. Most recently, Barry received an ADDY from the Gainesville Ad Federation for a commercial he wrote and produced about his 1973 VW Bug. Barry's tireless efforts on behalf of charities across the United States have literally raised hundreds of thousands of dollars. Barry is married and found time to raise four sons.

By the end of tomorrow evening we will be happily immersed in all the possibility, excitement and uncertainty that is playoff basketball.
There will be endless storylines and countless questions just begging to be answered. But what I'll be looking forward to most are the role players that will take their game to new heights and the good players that elevate themselves to great. The players who will rise above the pressure, the expectations and all the nuances of the postseason to leave their mark.
Players who will make a name for themselves…
Stephen Curry: I'm not talking about people discovering Curry here. He's clearly well on his way to becoming a household name and is this year's most notorious all-star snub. I'm talking about Curry elevating his game when it matters most.
Because while breaking the NBA's all-time record for the threes made in a season is impressive, carrying his team past the the first-round for only the second time in nearly two decades would breath life into the entire culture of Golden State basketball. And in turn solidify his name as not only one of the league's great shooters, but one of it's greatest players.
Omer Asik: Asik is probably the best center in the league that the casual NBA fan hasn't seen. That said, by the end of the first-round you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone in the country who doesn't love Asik's motor and willingness to scrap for every lose ball. He'll also have every opportunity to show why he's the Rockets' defensive anchor with slashers like Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant on hand.
Corey Brewer: For quite some time now Brewer has been considered a bust compared to his Florida teammates Al Horford and Joakim Noah. Fortunately the 27-year-old has finally found a home in George Karl's wacky lineups and is thriving in a Denver Nuggets' uniform. So much so that you could even make a legitimate case for him as this year's most improved player. Don't be surprise if Brewer drops 30 or makes a game-winning stop on any given night.
What players do YOU think will make a name for themselves in the postseason?

Thrifty Thursday: Steven Alan Parka
Granted, this is a small stretch on the word thrifty. This jacket, as it were, cost me $70. Keep in mind, however, that it retailed at $400. So, getting a $400 Steven Alan hiking parka at 83% off, we register that as thrifty. More accurately, we call it being a boss. A bargain boss. We gave you folks a quick heads up on these a few months back when eDrop-Off listed a few of these bad boys on eBay. Turns out, I couldn't quite turn down the price myself.
A lot of you are probably thinking, "Wow, that's an awfully bright orange." Or maybe it's closer to, "Man, I really hate that color." Either way, if you're thinking one of those two, I've accomplished my goal. If fitting in was my jam, I'd go buy a jet-black North Face like everybody else in the Western Hemisphere. An orange piece of outerwear, on the other hand, makes you react. Orange evokes emotion. And I like emotions, because I'm an emotional guy… okay, that backfired.

bright orange parka beats a north face jacket any day.
DAMN that's a great-looking jacket. Woof.
Great colors in this outfit. And really a great deal!
Love this look! Orange can never be too bright. IOHO (In our humble opinions…)
1. I bet your roommate wants that jacket. your roommate needs orange like he needs oxygen. you may want to find a hiding place
Orange and blue is such a great combo. It just always works.
I agree with you about North Face too. Up here in ND all everyone wears all winter is North Face fleece jackets. Every. Single. Day.
Good grief.

I love the orange, and the background (which it's perfectly suited for). It looks like one of those gray spring days on the lakes.
BTW I love you guys' blog! I'm stuck in LA but my family lives in Minnesota so I feel an affinity with the midwest. I like that you are representing not only the pitifully small world of male fashion blogs but the MIDWEST! *high five!
