The Bilious Bond Between Bibi, Barack, and Boehner
January 22, 2015 § 30 Comments
Anyone reading this blog knows by now that it has been a wild and wacky 24 hours in the never-ending soap opera that is Prime Minister Netanyahu and his involvement – whether direct or indirect – in American politics. The newest chapter was sparked by President Obama's State of the Union vow to veto any new sanctions bill that Congress passes targeting Iran, and Speaker John Boehner's response the next day of inviting Netanyahu to address Congress and speak about "the threats posed by radical Islam and Iran." While Netanyahu is often himself accused of trying to intervene in American politics, this was a clear cut case of someone else using Netanyahu to intervene in American politics, as Boehner's hope is that a speech to Congress by Netanyahu will rally the troops and establish enough political cover for wavering legislators to override any future veto by Obama. The White House was obviously incensed, and declared this to be a breach of protocol since Boehner had invited a foreign head of state to Washington without first checking with his own head of state. Things started to become a bit more sticky today when Nancy Pelosi confirmed that she had nothing to do with the invitation and thus it was not a bipartisan invite, and then the White House stated that Netanyahu would not be meeting with Obama while in Washington because it is longstanding policy not to meet with visiting political candidates so soon before an election, and Netanyahu's visit is going to be two weeks before Israeli elections on March 17.
This last point is key, because contra Max Fisher, who primarily sees this whole thing as the latest Netanyahu intervention into U.S. politics, I don't think that is what Netanyahu is actually up to here. When Boehner was the one who invited Netanyahu in a clear effort to bolster GOP thinking on Iran policy, it strikes me as strange to argue that this is somehow a Netanyahu initiative, and that this is really the GOP cheerleading an anti-Obama campaign on Netanyahu's part rather than the GOP using Netanyahu for its own ends. No doubt Netanyahu is as eager for new sanctions on Iran as his Republican friends, but the main reason speaking before Congress at the beginning of March holds appeal for him is because it is a unique campaign rally opportunity. One of the largest criticisms the Bujie Herzog-Tzipi Livni Zionist Camp alliance has had of Netanyahu's conduct of foreign affairs is that he has needlessly alienated the Obama administration, and in so doing damaged relations with the U.S. and Israel's standing in the world. Given the paucity of serious security figures in the Labor-Hatnua list, not to mention the fact that Labor's comparative advantage when it comes to Israeli voters is on social and economic issues, harping on the alleged damage that Netanyahu has caused to U.S.-Israel ties is going to be the left's biggest security and defense campaign issue. This is even more salient in the aftermath of this summer's fighting in Gaza and given the widespread disillusionment with the Palestinian Authority and the peace process across the political spectrum, removing Netanyahu's foot dragging on two states as a potent campaign issue.
In such a political climate, Netanyahu would be hard pressed to come up with a better rejoinder to the left's argument about deteriorating relations with the U.S. on his watch than being invited to speak before Congress for a third time (tying his hero, Winston Churchill) and being cheered and applauded by members of both parties as he touts the common U.S.-Israel fight against Islamic extremism. The timing here couldn't be better for him in terms of the vote, and no doubt he will use the speech during the final two weeks of his campaign as proof that the relationship with the U.S. is still rock solid and that Herzog and Livni are off-base with their criticisms, never mind the fact that Congress does not the entire U.S. government make.
While the logic might seem sound to both Boehner and Netanyahu, there are some potentially serious pitfalls in the plan. Starting with the GOP, there is the risk that the charge Fisher raises – of it being unseemly to side with the leader of a foreign country over one's own president – will stick, particularly given the contention that it is inappropriate for Congress to invite a foreign leader without first consulting with, or at least informing, the president in advance (as an aside, I get the head of state argument, although I don't see why Congress needs to clear its speaking invitations with the president, no more than the White House needs congressional approval to hold a joint Rose Garden press conference or hold a state dinner – I'd be grateful if any readers with particular expertise in constitutional law could elucidate whether there is a separation of powers problem here or not). More importantly for Boehner's purposes, the Netanyahu invite could potentially backfire from a tactical perspective if there is a backlash against invoking the strength of the pro-Israel lobby to torpedo a president's policy priority. This is precisely what happened in the 1981 fight during the Reagan administration over selling AWACS aircraft to Saudi Arabia, where the role of pro-Israel lobbying became a hot button topic. After public opinion had initially been opposed to the arms sale, with 73% opposed, Israel's strident lobbying became an issue and public opinion shifted as a result, with 53% expressing that "once the President had decided to sell the planes to Saudi Arabia, it was important that Congress not embarrass him with the rest of the world," and 52% agreeing that "the Israeli lobby in Washington had to be taken on and defeated so it's a good thing the U.S. Senate upheld the plane sale to Saudi Arabia." By explicitly tying Israel to new sanctions, Boehner is hoping to capitalize on Israel's general popularity with voters and Netanyahu's popularity among GOP and some Democratic lawmakers, but doing it so nakedly and overtly can have some unintended consequences.
Moving to Netanyahu, I'm not sure this is a winning maneuver for him, and I think he is actually taking a substantial risk. He is already being criticized at home for trying to subvert election laws through this speech to Congress, and in fact there has already been a petition filed to judicially block the speech from being aired on Israeli television. Furthermore, he is opening himself up to a mountain of opprobrium for further damaging relations with the Obama administration – and yes, the refusal to meet with Netanyahu when he is here may be justified given the election timing, but it is also an unambiguous slap down from a furious White House – and Democrats in general. Don't forget that Pelosi has already hung him out to dry, and other Democrats will follow suit as they do not appreciate Netanyahu's blatant coordination with the Republicans, irrespective of how they feel about Israel or further sanctions on Iran. If Herzog, Livni, Lapid, Kahlon, and the rest of the cast of characters looking to take down Bibi are smart about it, they will also seize on the fact that Netanyahu is being used as a political football here and either not aware enough to realize that it is going on, or worse, willingly allowing it happen. It does not speak well to Netanyahu's instincts or leadership to be manipulated by Congressional Republicans for their own purposes and possibly damaging himself in the process.
Finally, in accepting such a charged invitation to speak, Netanyahu is keeping to a pattern of putting his personal political prospects ahead of Israel's longterm interests with regard to the U.S., and that is where the real danger comes from. It's one thing to blame Netanyahu for bad relations with a president who will be out of office in two years; one can argue that this is a problem that will resolve itself with no residual effects. But if you view Netanyahu's machinations in a larger context, by constantly and openly favoring the Republican Party – either himself or through Ron Dermer's actions in Washington – he is putting Israel itself at long term risk by helping make it a wedge issue in American politics. I constantly argue that Israel's primacy of place in the U.S. is due to popular opinion, but the caveat there is that this only works when it is bipartisan popular opinion. Netanyahu's actions, where he sides with the Republicans in a very exaggerated manner, are having a serious effect and eroding traditional cross-spectrum popular support for Israel, and once that passes a point of no return, Israel is going to have serious problems. I don't place the blame for wavering support in the Democratic Party for Israel solely at Netanyahu's feet by any means, but he is a big part of the problem and has stoked the fires at many points. The GOP has an obvious political interest in making Israel a full-fledged wedge issue and using it as a cudgel to hammer the Democrats as often as it can. The burning question for me is why Netanyahu is so willing to allow himself to be used in furthering this outcome when it is so obviously not in Israel's interests.
Hagel And The Israel Lobby
December 27, 2012 § 11 Comments
I really didn't want to write about Chuck Hagel since I don't think there is much to say that hasn't already been said (although for the record, I have no problem with him as defense secretary based on what he has said about Israel, and in over an hour with him last September at the Atlantic Council he didn't say one thing about Israel that raised a red flag), but reading James Besser's op-ed in today's New York Times compels me to weigh in. Besser's thesis is that mainstream American Jewish groups such as the Anti-Defamation League and the American Jewish Committee are either silent on Hagel or complicit in trying to torpedo his nomination because they are afraid of extremist voices on the pro-Israel right such as the Emergency Committee for Israel, and that this radical fringe is setting the pro-Israel agenda and pushing more mainstream voices to adopt extreme positions. He says American Jewish leaders "increasingly tremble in the face of a small minority of zealots, whose vision of Israel's future diverges from that of the majority of American Jews and clashes with core American values of freedom and democracy," and he compares them to the leaders of the Republican Party in warning that a movement driven by extremists is bound to fail since it will run afoul of public opinion. Besser is basically arguing that the institutional pro-Israel movement is headed toward irrelevance because it is adopting positions that do not line up with the bulk of American Jewry, and he uses the Hagel nomination as his hook to make that argument.
I agree with Besser that more extremist voices such as the ECI are driving the conversation on Hagel, and that this is not a good trend, although I am not as confident as he is that American Jewish leaders don't themselves hold the same convictions and are rather being prodded along into taking positions with which they don't agree. That aside though, there are two major problems with his argument, one specific to the Hagel issue and one general one. First, Besser is assuming that opposition to Hagel is going to provoke some sort of popular backlash because the anti-Hagel position is so extreme, but this seems to me to be a stretch. To begin with, while there is lots of support for Hagel within the foreign policy community, opposition to Hagel is emanating from too many quarters to make the anti-Hagel position the equivalent of denying evolution. I also don't think this fight is really registering much among the general public, as Hagel's name recognition is pretty low and this is the kind of Beltway fight to which most people pay little or no attention. As far as I can tell from a quick search, Hagel's name recognition is actually so low that nobody has even bothered to do any polling on his potential nomination. The idea that opposing Hagel is so extreme and will provoke such outrage that it will cause the pro-Israel community to go into a death spiral is pretty far-fetched at best.
The bigger issue though is with Besser's argument that it is the views of American Jews that empower pro-Israel groups and will ultimately determine their success or failure. This betrays a lack of understanding of what makes AIPAC and other similar groups successful, which is not that Jews support them, but that the majority of the overall population supports them. Aaron David Miller pointed this out earlier this week and Walter Russell Mead does it all the time as well, but when the former Washington correspondent for The Jewish Week still doesn't get how things work, it bears some repeating. American public opinion has been favorable toward Israel since its founding, and support for Israel is relatively constant within a set range. This works to create pressure on politicians to espouse a pro-Israel view. In the years spanning the George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush administrations, Israel's favorability ratings as measured by Gallup ranged from 45 percent to 71 percent, and in only in four out of twenty-one instances did less than 50 percent of the public indicate holding a very favorable or mostly favorable view of Israel. When asked to rate countries as close allies, Israel consistently ranks behind only the Anglosphere countries of Great Britain, Canada, and Australia, with those describing Israel as a close ally ranging from 26 percent to 47 percent from 1982 through 2008.
Furthermore, when looking at the preferences of the issue public – citizens who have strong feelings on the issue of the U.S. relationship with Israel and Israeli behavior generally – people in this category are even more supportive of Israel and Israeli policies than the general public by more than twice as much. A pluralist model of politics predicts a correlation between the views of citizens who have a strongly held view on an issue and public policy, since ignoring strong or intense preferences will erode democratic legitimacy over time, so it makes sense that politicians respond to the pro-Israel wishes of the most vocal subset of citizens. Support for Israel among the U.S. populace is both broad and deep, which means that the pro-Israel sympathies of the general public are reinforced by the more intense feelings of support expressed by a vocal minority of both Jewish and non-Jewish voters. When taking into account the importance that Jewish and Christian voters assign to Israel, combined with the public's affinity and support for Israel in general, the pluralist model that equates strong public opinion with corresponding policy explains why AIPAC and other groups are successful.
None of this means that this situation is static. Support for Israel is driven by a sense of shared values, and so if that perception erodes, Israel is going to be in trouble. One of the reasons I pound away at Israel's myopia in hanging on to the West Bank – aside from the fact that I find it morally questionable, to say the least – is because I am pretty sure that it is going to spell doom for Israel long term as it relates to U.S. support. However, focusing on the opinion of just American Jews is going to tell you very little about whether mainstream American Jewish organizations are going to remain strong or not. American Jews are probably the most liberal group of Americans that exist, so if the rest of the country ever catches up to them, then the ADL and the AJC are going to have something to worry about. Putting up a fight over Chuck Hagel though is just not going to be the issue that relegates mainstream Jewish organizations to obsolescence.
Guest Post: Which Side Is It That Is Actually Politicizing Israel?
June 21, 2012 § 1 Comment
Following my post last week about the GOP turning Israel into a partisan issue, my friend Gabe Scheinmann emailed me to register his disagreement with what I had written. Gabe and I met when we were at Harvard and we both ended up as PhD students in the Government Department at Georgetown, and he is currently a Visiting Fellow at the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs. Gabe is a rising star in conservative foreign policy circles, and I always take his unfailingly intelligent and informed views on security policy very seriously. Gabe has a different take on who is responsible for politicizing Israel as an issue in U.S. elections, and I asked if he would be willing to write a guest post laying out his rebuttal to my argument and he graciously agreed. Here is Gabe on the differences between the Republicans and Democrats on Israel and which side is more responsible for playing politics.
Making "Israel" into a partisan issue football is bad for Israel and bad for America. A true alliance does not bloom and wither based on the party in power, but instead represents long-term interests. By politicizing such an alliance, both political parties, and both countries for that matter, are jeopardizing the crucial trust and commitments needed for a fruitful relationship. Moreover, the current parties' dispositions on Israel have not always been the same. Prior to the Nixon Administration, it was the Democratic Party that was a great friend of Israel, from immediate political recognition from Truman to the beginning of a military relationship under JFK. In contrast, the greatest crisis in U.S.-Israeli relations to this day occurred during a Republican Administration, when an irate Eisenhower browbeat Israel over its invasion of the Sinai and Suez Canal in 1956. Three decades from now, the parties' identities may yet again change and it would be a disservice to the U.S, Israel, and the alliance if the parties were to develop diametrically opposed views on the subject.
That said, I think the real culprit is that for the first time in a long time, real differences have emerged between the two parties regarding their policies towards Israel. The Democratic Party's lurch leftwards on foreign policy—partly a result of Vietnam, partly due to demographics—has also shaken its once solid support for Israel. The Democratic Congressional leadership remains very pro-Israel, way more so than the current president. But if you look at poll after poll of Democrats, especially liberal Democrats, what you find on Israel is very troubling. Whether it's the J Street crowd (whose leadership is way more right-wing than its supporters, and that's saying something), or the African-American community, or the environmentalist community, or the gay community, you'll find some terrible sentiments on Israel. The ritual condemnation of Israel by supposed "human rights" organizations, all left-leaning, are manifestations of this. And while the Democratic leadership is indeed pro-Israel, the ranks of the Democratic party are not. The "Gaza-54" letter, asking Obama to pressure Israel to ease the Gaza blockade in 2010, was signed exclusively by 54 Democratic Congressmen, Rep Jim Moran (D-VA) blamed the Iraq War on AIPAC—earning the rebuke of Rep. Steny Hoyer—and, most recently, the New York Democratic Party establishment has come out against Charles Barron, the former Black Panther running for Congress, for his anti-Israel and anti-Semitic positions, even though he has been endorsed by the retiring Congressman whose seat he's running for.
Moreover, President Obama himself has politicized Israel policy to a degree unseen in decades. The Obama Campaign put out a glossy, epic-music-leitmotif video on its "exemplary" record on Israel, the White House (note: not the campaign) has a webpage exclusively devoted to the president's Israel record, longer than the entirety of its foreign policy page, and the president himself declared that he "has done more in terms of security for the state of Israel than any previous administration" and knows more about Judaism than any other American president. The list goes on. Obama has spoken at AIPAC two years in row, a first for a president. The recent spate of national security leaks—authorized or not—have served to make the president look tougher to his electorate, while compromising real national security, such as the disclosure of the joint U.S.-Israeli cyberwarfare campaign against Iran's nuclear program, which has a direct quote from VP Biden blaming Israel. In addition, Biden has recently reemphasized the president's campaign speech of last October, also expounding that "I believe that no president since Harry Truman has done more for Israel's physical security than Barack Obama", even managing a small dig at the Bush Administration for supposedly not putting enough pressure on Iran.
Moreover, the President's Israel policy seems dictated not by U.S. national security, but by his own reelection campaign, as his policies on the peace process and Iran have morphed as the November approaches.
Take the Peres ceremony. To be clear, if the GOP leadership was indeed invited, they should have gone. (However, Kampeas' blog postings on the subject are far from definitive as to who was actually invited and who was out of town, so I'm not sure there's solid evidence that the GOP absence was out of spite for Obama's Israel record.) Notice the glowing and unprecedented reception the White House gave Peres compared to its shabby treatment of Netanyahu, Israel's actual leader. Notice Obama quoting extensively from Peres' 1993 Nobel peace prize speech, or the very act of giving Peres the medal, or more importantly, singling him out for a separate ceremony than the rest of the recipients the previous week. For example, when Obama gave Bush 41 the same medal two years ago, not only was it not a black tie event, nor at night, nor a reception, but he was one of fifteen recipients! This was an entire political operation by the president, from the decision to award the medal, to the manner in which it was presented, to the themes hit upon. (Notice how Peres brought up Iran, while Obama didn't.) Obama's message to Bibi was "See how I'll treat you if you believe in what I believe". It was a no-so-subtle dig.
To conclude, I believe that the core of the Democratic party has moved far leftward on foreign policy and, as a result, it is losing its reliable pro-Israel bent. This has begun to trickle up the ranks of its leadership, but for the moment its Congressional leadership is still solidly pro-Israel, more so than the president himself. So, what should the GOP or, for that matter, pro-Israel Democrats do? In order to keep Israel bipartisan, should they compromise? How should the Republican Party respond when the White House attempts to impose a settlement freeze on Israel, or equates the Holocaust with Palestinian suffering, or denies the existence of Bush era assurances to Israel, or attempts to refund UNESCO in contravention of U.S. law, or opposes the counting of Palestinian "refugees"?
In the past 5 years, substantive differences have emerged between the two parties on Israel, largely a result of a shift in the Democratic party. The emergence of groups like the Emergency Committee for Israel is a consequence, not a cause, of this shift and is merely trying to highlight these differences while ultimately letting voters decide. If the differences between the two parties, or Obama and Romney, were invented, then that would be a different story. However, they are not and therefore ought to be debated.
Turning Israel Into A Partisan Issue Does Israel No Favors
June 15, 2012 § 1 Comment
It is no secret that in the last few years the GOP has been trying to claim the pro-Israel mantle exclusively for itself. This has manifested itself in a number of ways, ranging from the creation of groups whose sole purpose appears to be bashing President Obama over the head on Israel to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor promising Bibi Netanyahu during a one-on-one meeting that the House Republican majority would "serve as a check on the Administration and what has been, up until this point, one party rule in Washington" and that "the Republican majority understands the special relationship between Israel and the United States," with the unspoken implication being that the Democrats do not. Mitt Romney has accused Obama of "throwing Israel under the bus" and prominent conservative pundits have repeatedly taken Obama to task for alleged mistreatment of Netanyahu. The upshot of all this is a concerted message emanating from the GOP that only the Republicans can be trusted to safeguard Israel's interests and that the Democrats, and Obama in particular, cannot.
The culmination of this strategy came on Wednesday, when Israeli President Shimon Peres was honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, a curious move from an American president who allegedly has no fond feelings for Israel. Many luminaries were in attendance, including Madeleine Albright, Elie Wiesel, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.), Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.), Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.). Notice anything strange about this list? Ron Kampeas did, which is that it includes only one Republican and nobody from the Republican congressional leadership. It is not because the Republicans weren't welcome, as Kampeas confirmed from all sides that the leadership delegations from both parties were invited to Peres's ceremony, but because they chose not to attend. Process that for a second – the president of Israel, who also happens to be one of the country's founding fathers and a true Israeli legend and statesman in every sense, was honored by the president and only one (involuntarily) retiring Republican senator accepted the White House's invitation to come. Eric Cantor, who is the highest ranking Jewish member of Congress in the history of the country and who cannot abide what he views as the White House's various insults and backstabbing of Netanyahu and Israel, apparently thinks that coming to the equivalent of a state dinner for the Israeli president is not an important enough use of his time. Just imagine the torrent of criticism and vitriol that would be raining down on Obama and the Democrats right now if the situation were reversed. I dare say someone would be forming another Emergency Committee.
It seems pretty clear to me that the reason none of the Republican leadership was present on Wednesday is because they do not want to grant Obama a "victory" on Israel or lend credence to the notion that perhaps he is not as anti-Israel as Republicans have repeatedly insisted. It is a shame that one party is desperately trying to turn Israel into a partisan issue that can be used to its own political advantage, but more importantly it is a very dangerous development for Israel's long term strength and support in the U.S. For decades, Israel has enjoyed nearly universal bipartisan support within American politics, and Republican efforts to paint Democrats as anti-Israel run the risk of turning into a self-fulfilling prophecy and making Israel a political football no different than taxes, abortion, or government spending. I fail to see how making Israel a partisan issue benefits Israel at all rather than solely benefitting the Republican Party, which is misguided behavior coming from a party that professes to be looking out for Israel's interests. The Republicans are so intent on being perceived as more pro-Israel than the other side that they are actually hurting Israel in the process. The GOP needs to take a step back for a moment and recognize that it is doing Israel no favors by constantly – and ludicrously – insisting that the Democrats can't be trusted when it comes to Israel's security, and stop using Israel to score political points. Whether the GOP spurning of the Peres medal ceremony was a dig at Obama or a nod of support to Bibi in the Netanyahu-Peres divide, it was an insulting and outrageous misstep. If you claim to be Israel's best friend, then you damn well better show up when its president receives the highest honor that the White House can give.

As of Thursday, October 31, 2013

Meadowcreek Mustangs (7-AAAAAA)
Coach: George Pugh
Record: 1-7, 1-5 region
Last week: Lost to Mountain View 49-13
Peachtree Ridge Lions (7-AAAAAA)
Coach: Mark Fleetwood
Record: 6-2, 4-2 region
Last week: Lost to Norcross 24-20
Peachtree Ridge began the year 5-0, but has dropped two of its last three games to region co-leaders Collins Hill and Norcross. The Lions can clinch a playoff berth Friday with a victory over Meadowcreek.
"The way I see it, we're just trying to win our next game," Peachtree Ridge head coach Mark Fleetwood said. "I think this is an important game for us."
Peachtree Ridge forced four turnovers in last week's game against Norcross, including an interception by freshman DeAngelo Gibbs. Linebacker Aaron Harris made 19 tackles. But that wasn't enough to overturn the 186 yards of total offense by the Lions. Running back Jordan Ellis was held to 61 yards, his fewest yards of the season. Quarterback Chance Thrasher threw for only 126 yards and one TD.
"There was some mistakes in there," Fleetwood said. "They are by far the best team we've played to date."
Kicker Evan Pantels had field goals of 21 and 42 yards.
"I was really proud of him," Fleetwood said. "He's a tough kid and not your typical kicker."
The Mustangs snapped a five-year, 53-game losing streak this season, but the excitement of that win has been erased by 68-0 and 49-13 losses the last two games. Running back Ryan Moore rushed for 165 yards and one touchdown in last week's game, while Kortez Towels added a 10-yard TD run.
Last meeting: Peachtree Ridge won 61-0 last year
Directions to Peachtree Ridge High School: From I-85, take the Old Peachtree Road exit and go west. School is roughly two miles ahead on the right.

I am pleased that my oldest student does not attend Whitaker any longer. I have one student left in this school and it takes me 23 minutes to reach the front of the line to pick her up after school ( frustrating). My student was given extemporary state test scores that she did not earn year after year. It was heartbreaking for her to learn that her test scores had been altered. Now that she is in another school (where we are welcome) we can begin to work at those skill that she requires assistance in. We are livid what Whitaker choose to do on the state exams. We are distressed that Whitaker Elementary School had their hand in the cookie jar. When parents started to notice and question the activities inside of this school the school implemented the" no parents allowed" ruling. I was not surprised when I read about Whitakers troubles in the El Paso Times newspaper. I really felt sorry for all the good teachers that worked there. I will be pleased when I can take an active role inside and outside the school in regards to their education.

Forms for Sending California Salmon Protection Campaign letters
The Problem: In early 2014 a water bill was passed by the U.S. House of Representatives which would have devastated the Central Valley salmon populations. It was sponsored by the San Joaquin agricultural members of the House. In early December, both Senators Feinstein and Boxer were instrumental in stopping an amended version of that bill in the Senate because it would have overturned the Endangered Species Act protections for the salmon. Undeterred, later in December the House passed a new bill which contained most of the same salmon killing provisions.
The new Congress will take up these bills again in 2015. Water4Fish, the Golden Gate Salmon Association and other organizations are gearing up for the battle. You can help. Letters to Senators Feinstein and Boxer thanking them for their 2014 actions and requesting their continuing help in 2015 can have a big impact.
We have drafted an email that you can easily send to them. If you prefer, you can print it and send it as a letter. Fill out your contact information on the form below and go to the letters page. You can send emails by just clicking on "Send letter by email". If you want to print the letters, click on the blue text at the bottom of the page and print each letter.

Kagome stared down at her hands, grumbling to herself as she tried once more to climb the gigantic tree next to her house. It was, of course, impossible for a girl of her size and without any assistance. Still, every day she tried at least once, and during holiday breaks she would try several times. Her hands were rough, arms scratched and bleeding lightly in some points.
Gripping the bark of the sacred tree, Kagome brought her legs up and tried to pull herself up the massive trunk once more. Of course, like every other time, she failed after a few inches and slid down, tearing at her delicate flesh once more. When she hit the ground, her hands came up to cup her face as she tried to fight down the growing sense of desperation in her – she was running out of time.
"What are you doing?"
Her heart skipped a beat and she stiffened, turning with wide eyes to see the last person she had ever wanted to see her in such a position. There he stood, hair shining in the sunlight, with his usual expressionless mask in place as he stared at her with eyes that only gave a hint at his confusion. Kagome's lower lip began to tremble and she shook her head, laughing brokenly.
"Just being stupid…" Her voice trailed off as a nervous lump formed in her throat. Her mind was racing. Did he really not remember? Had she been trying so hard all these years for nothing?
Sesshomaru was quiet for a while, before shifting his books and stepping over to offer a hand out. Her eyes widened and a faint blush came to her cheeks as she took his hand, her insides feeling giddy and excited as he pulled her up. Their eyes met and she felt as if she might explode in that moment, looking away from him. He turned her hand over in his, running his fingers against her palm as his brow furrowed slightly in thought.
Kagome inhaled sharply and looked at him, a confused and worried look on her face. He had never touched her that much in their entire time of knowing one another – which for her… was all her existence. Sesshomaru was the eldest son of her father's best friend and the elder brother of her best friend, InuYasha. He had been a permanent fixture in her life since before she could remember.
According to her mother, Sesshomaru was not always so empty. When Kagome was just a newborn baby, he would come by and show her all the things he had studied that day. Her mother said that sometimes he seemed more excited at Kagome's presence than anyone. He had never made many friends easily, being different from others and having a privileged life. Kagome's mother explained that, most likely, Sesshomaru saw how easily Kagome accepted him in her innocent state.
Shortly after Kagome was born, InuYasha took his first breath and Sesshomaru's mother left the family home without a word. Afterwards, he was cold and untrusting – particularly of females. From that moment on, Kagome would never be able to reach him. He would still come by, assisting at the family shrine was part of his chores for his allowance, but he would rarely say two words to the girl he once adored.
This would have been fine, if not for one major problem.
Kagome fell in love with Sesshomaru.
From an early age, she knew she would marry him some day. All of her fantasies involved older, pale haired, amber eyed men who would not whisk her away in a blaze of heroic rescue – but would expect her to stand on her own two feet and only save her when it was absolutely necessary.
That was why, when she was five she went to him, full of all the certainties of a childish mind that believes it knows what is best, and asked him if he would marry her. Sesshomaru had stared at her for a good ten minutes before finally speaking. He pointed to the Goshinboku with a sly smirk.
"I'll marry you when you can climb to the top of that tree."
So here she was, ten years later, still trying to climb this stupid tree. If she could not accomplish her goal by the end of the next week – all would be lost. Sesshomaru was going to college. It was unlikely that he would come back single. Most likely, he would go off and find himself a beautiful and intelligent woman… and Kagome would be forgotten.
Part of her knew it was ridiculous to expect him to agree to marry her simply because she could climb a tree. She had only been five when he challenged her, probably expecting that she would never be able to and that eventually, she would forget him. Instead, her heart latched onto those words. They were her final hope.
If she could not reach him now, she would never be able to.
"You shouldn't keep trying to climb this tree. You're just hurting yourself."
Kagome's pulse raced and warmth radiated from her palm, seeping through her spirit and renewing her desire. She looked up at him, eyes clear and certain, and a look of determination on her face. "I have to."
"Hn." Was all he said as he released her hand and turned away, leaving her alone to her task. She realized that he likely did not remember his challenge.
Hours went by as Kagome continued to struggle. Sesshomaru did a fine job of ignoring her and finished his chores, leaving without saying goodbye as the sun began to fade. She did not let his lack of response bother her. That was just how he was these days. There was good in him. She had seen it hundreds of times.
What she had never seen, what she hoped for, was something so rare that her mother said the last one to ever receive one had been Kagome herself. She wanted to see him smile. For him to know that she was serious, that she loved and cherished him and that she did not need him to be her hero – she could be his.
Kagome was determined to pull Sesshomaru from the empty darkness within his heart.
With that determination, she ignored her mother's calls to come in and continued to push herself through the night. Her fingernails were tattered, blood crusting beneath them as she struggled against the tree.
Finally, after what seemed like ages, Kagome found herself sitting and staring at the rooftops of her neighborhood. Her body trembled from exhaustion and shock as a light wind blew through her hair and rustled the leaves around her. She had finally made it.
Tears welled in her eyes as she reached into her pocket and pulled out a small paper lantern and a single match. Her hands shook she carefully unfolded the yellow paper, her handwritten wish boldly declared on it as she lit the small candle at the base. She held the lantern for a few moments, allowing the heat to collect within the cylindrical paper, before releasing it to float into the clear December night.
Kagome watched it as it rose in the sky, hoping that her wish would come true. The soft yellow lantern floated away, mixing with the sparkling stars, and slowly faded as tears blocked her vision and rolled down her face. Now that she was here, at the top of this sacred tree, she had no idea what to do next.
Would Sesshomaru's heart be moved? Would he simply laugh and turn away?
The answer came faster than she expected as said young man raced up the steps of her family shrine, pausing at the top to lean over and inhale sharply. When he looked up at her, their eyes met and she smiled.
"You remembered?"
He stared at her for some time before going to the base of the tree and giving her a slightly incredulous expression. "How do you intend to get down?"
Kagome sniffed and reached up, wiping at her tears as a small laugh came from her. "I was hoping you would catch me."
Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed slightly. "If I refuse?"
She took a deep breath, giving a half-hearted shrug. "Then I suppose I will stay up here forever." Her heart was unhappy with his responses so far. While his presence was a good sign, she knew better than to think that meant he would accept her. Her mind was already digging her into a deep grave of despair, readying for the moment he would call her a fool and walk away.
The girl flinched and closed her eyes tightly, turning away as her stomach clenched painfully. "I know. I'm stupid. Just go."
"You are stupid. How long do I have to hold my arms open before you will jump?"
Her eyes snapped open and she stared down on him in disbelief before a smile crept onto her face. Without hesitation, she pushed herself from the tree and launched herself into his arms. When they fell to the ground, him giving off a grunt of pain, she looked at him in disbelief.
"How did you know?"
Sesshomaru looked down on her, his own slight disbelief hinting in his expression. "I saw the lantern." She smiled at him and he reached up, wiping the tears from her face. "Why?" It was such a simple question, but with that word he asked so much. Why had she continued to try… why did she even care?
Kagome laughed and threw her arms around him, burying her face in his shoulder. "Because…" Her voice broke as she tried to think of the best way to explain herself. "I love you, Sesshomaru."
Silence filled the yard as they sat together, her clinging to him and him trying to understand her fully. After a few long moments, he finally determined that he had always loved her, too, even if he had been a total failure in showing it. He had been bitter about his mother's choices and had placed the burden of that blame on every female in existence. Most had taken it and done nothing about his grief, not caring enough to express concern. Only one had ever gone through great lengths to try and reach his heart.
Here he was, holding that female in his embrace as she stared at him with a foolish smile. Sweat covered her face, leaves were stuck in her hair, and blood crusted beneath her broken fingernails.
She was gorgeous.
Sesshomaru leaned in, capturing Kagome's lips for the first time, and felt something within him that he had not known in years light up.
Above them, high in the sky, a yellow lantern burned in the starry sky with a simple wish: Sesshomaru's Happiness.
A wish come true.

THE HOBBIT (2012/2013): News, Rumors, Pics Till Release

Re: THE HOBBIT (2012/2013): News, Rumors, Pics Till Release
There are several posts including sound and video, where Jackson mentions there will be an extended versions of the film, but that he wants to film more material if possible.
He has stated he doesn't know if (and thats if the studio even approves it, accountants already counting the cash) it would be even more material for extended versions or if it would require an edit for a third "Hobbit" film.
Technically he could even be talking more specifically about a bridging film (which at one time was actually considered for the "2nd Hobbit" film.
As opposed to the expanded Hobbit film that just features appendix material that happened during the same time period.
Now we already expect additional pickup shooting for the 2nd film to occur next year. Of which fine tuning of script still absolutely occurs. But usually it doesn't require something as major as creating a new ending point (to end a chaptered story). That would take a bit of real work, but its hardly impossible.
Personally I would love more appendix material (ie bridge material). But a lot of that (though clearly not all) I wouldn't want as part of the Hobbit film as they occur a significant amount of time later. But I would still love to see it, be it expanded home market material. TV specials, ect.
The key issue is how much material is he talking about and the associated cost involved. Why its almost assured that the Hobbit will make a sizable profit (It is possible it could flop, but I think its highly unlikely). But a studio is going to want to maximize that profit. With the Home market a mere shadow of its former self. It will be much harder for the studio to greenlite additional (above already planned pickups) large scale expenses. The easiest way to make a huge amount of money would be a separate film release in some form.
But until we have an idea of first the length of material planned for the 2nd film, current level of extra footage that would be about the 2nd film, and how much additional footage Jackson is talking about.
Then you have the issue of what material Jackson wants to film. Is it directly connected to the Hobbit and its specific time period and events? Or is it more of the bridging material that was originally considered a possible option for the 2nd film?
Certainly one thing is certain, its a complete 180 from what he felt about filming when he completed principal filming of LOTR. THough of course those were much more grueling filming schedules for the amout of material filmed.

I wanted to get some thoughts on selling a PHP application (CMS). I intend on offering a free version that may include ads or be limited in some way. My main concern is how to detect if the user has purchased a license or the paid version or not.
My idea is to have a file (license.php) which will check a variable against one on my database and make sure it matches the domain purchased for. Is this a good idea if the client's server maybe does not have curl enabled or is there another method to do this?
Also once I have set that
$licensed = true, how would I make sure that continues change other things throughout the application. For example, if I had something like this:
I guess there is no way to prevent them from just commenting out that section or modifying it.
I don't have too much of a problem in general with this, but wanted to see if there were any better ways people may have come up with. Thanks!

When Gartner coined the term dark data, they brought attention to a facet of information management that deserves the attention of many enterprise teams. Gartner's definition makes it sound fairly benign: dark data refers to "information assets organizations collect, process, and store during regular business activities, but generally fail to use for other purposes." Lack of use, however, is rarely good for anything. Cars, people, and yes, even the majority of digital data, need to be active. Inactive data can introduce risks and can also be a symptom of a much bigger information management problem that, if left un-checked, will eventually degrade business operations and decision-making.

Pugachyov's IIB 1st Russia Bank to Default Since 1999
International Industrial Bank, the Russian lender controlled by lawmaker Sergei Pugachyov, became the country's first bank to renege on its foreign debt since 1999 after defaulting on $453 million of bonds.
IIB said it didn't repay 200 million euros ($253 million) of 9 percent notes due yesterday and sent a default notice on $200 million of bonds maturing in 2013, according to a statement yesterday. The bank proposed a one-year maturity extension on the 9 percent notes and said holders who vote in favor of the new maturity date by July 14 will get a payment amounting to 5 percent of the principal they're owed, according to a 17-page company report obtained by Bloomberg News today.
Russia's biggest lenders survived a recession last year that cut economic output by the most since the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991 as President Dmitry Medvedev pledged more than $200 billion to support banks and companies.
IIB's cash shortage stems in part from its reliance on central bank funding rather than retail deposits to finance new lending, said Yaroslav Sovgyra of Moody's Investors Service. IIB made most of its loans to industrial companies controlled by Pugachyov, according to Moscow-based Trust Investment Bank.
While a default by IIB may have a "short-term negative effect" on investor confidence in Russian bank debt, the lender's problems aren't indicative of the wider financial system, Sovgyra, a senior credit officer at Moody's in Moscow, said yesterday before IIB's announcement. "The vast majority of investors understand that this is a pretty specific case which should not be extended to other banks," he said.
'Hot Market'
IIB's 9 percent euro bonds were trading at 50.25 cents on the euro as of June 30, the last day Bloomberg compiled prices for the debt, plunging from 97.75 at the start of the June. The 11 percent dollar bonds due 2013 traded at 58.50 cents at 5:56 p.m. in Moscow, Bloomberg data show, down from 100 cents when the notes were sold in February. Credit Suisse Group AG and VTB Capital were joint lead managers of the February issue, Bloomberg data show.
"February was a very hot market where investors seemed already much less cautious on their buying, that is why this kind of issue could be placed," said Sebastien De Prinsac, director of fixed-income international sales at Trust Investment Bank. "Some investors probably didn't realize that they were buying not just a bank, but the risk of a complex industrial group."
'Irresponsible Behavior'
Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin told reporters in Moscow today that he "hopes" IIB will resolve its problems without losing its banking license.
The failure of some Russian banks today may be "healthy" because the country still has too many lenders, according to Ashmore Investment Management Ltd.'s Jerome Booth. The number of lenders in Russia has fallen to 1,039 as of June 1 from 1,058 at the start of 2010, according to the central bank. Hundreds of banks disappeared after Russia defaulted on $40 billion of ruble debt in 1998 and devalued the currency.
"If they collapse, they collapse," Booth, who helps oversee $33 billion as Ashmore's head of research, said at a press conference in London yesterday. "You can't say there won't be pain, but it will be healthy. You want to have a banking system which unconditionally punishes irresponsible behavior."
Maturity Extension
Russia's Micex Index dropped 1 percent today as shares of OAO Sberbank, Russia's largest lender, slipped 0.1 percent. The bank's 6.468 percent dollar bonds due 2013 rose, sending yields down 13 basis points to 4.39 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. VTB Group's 6.609 percent dollar bonds due 2012 also climbed, pushing the yield 9 basis points lower to 5.09 percent.
IIB asked noteholders to accept a new maturity date of July 6, 2011, according to the company report today. The bank will hold a meeting with creditors in London on July 21. IIB spokesman Dmitry Morochenko said he couldn't comment on details of the proposal.
Pugachyov is a member of the Russian Federation Council, the upper chamber of parliament. His United Industrial Corp., the parent company of IIB, also has assets in mining and shipbuilding. IIB has appointed Credit Suisse as an adviser.
"I've never been a big fan of their business model, wholesale funding for effectively related party private equity assets," said Ian McCall, a London-based director at Argo Capital Management, which oversees about $500 million in emerging-market debt and didn't buy IIB's February bond issue. "It works fine until it stops working and then it goes horribly wrong."
VTB Group, Russia's second-biggest bank, said in a statement yesterday it may lend $600 million to United Industrial using the company's Elegestskoe coal deposit as collateral. VTB Capital may be mandated to sell the deposit as part of the deal, according to the statement.

I lovingly renovated this old cottage, which had "no value" on appraisal when I bought it in 2001, from a state of total disrepair while raising my children and working full time as a psychiatric nurse. It was a long process, but worth every minute, and I've become quite a carpenter in the process! If you check out the Isabella House website, you'll get an idea of why it took so long. Most people are amazed when they see the "before and after" photographs. Special thanks go to local historic preservation efforts which kept this, and many other properties, from being demolished.

Las Vegas
Element Las Vegas Summerlin
If a hotel is good enough for President Obama, it's good enough for us. And if the place also happens to offer some of the best rates in town, better yet! When the Commander-in-Chief came to Las Vegas to give a speech on energy policy, he and his entourage took up the entire second floor of this hotel. Fifteen minutes from the madness of the Strip, it features more than just eco-friendly design and an electric vehicle charging station. Stylish, light-filled guest rooms and suites come with kitchenettes or full kitchens. Freebies include wired and wireless high-speed Internet, Rise: Breakfast Bar (muffins, smoothies, sandwiches and more) and an evening food and beverage reception. There's even an intimate pool area, offering a pleasant alternative to the megaresort scene. On a related note: When President Obama stayed in Vegas on an earlier visit, he checked into Caesars Palace, which happens to be one of our previous value hotel selections. Do we know how to pick 'em or what?
To get treated like the president, visit the Element Las Vegas Summerlin official website

Twice Used is actual iPhone glass upcycled into modern household goods. We take what you've loved and lost and make it useful again. Read more
Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on December 18, 2013.
Twice Used is actual iPhone glass upcycled into modern household goods. We take what you've loved and lost and make it useful again.
About this project
CNET: "...Rejoice, for the infamous feeling of shame upon shattering one's device may have a bright side. It turns out dismantled iPhones that are injured beyond repair make for interesting pieces of functioning furniture, jewelry, and kitchen accessories.
Gizmodo: "There are a lot of creative ways to reuse electronics, and having your 3GS come back as a minimalist clock isn't a bad option."
Also featured on Mashable, PC Magazine, Venture Beat, Today's iPhone, UberGizmo and many more!
Twice Used is a project set to serve dual purposes: Eliminate hazardous electronic waste by manufacturing modern household goods by hand in the USA. We have designed and prototyped a handful of attractive products that all have one thing in common: They are all made from used iPhone glass and other parts such as home buttons. All of this glass comes from iPhones that were in the clumsy hands of individuals all over the world. The phones were dropped, brought into a repair shop to be fixed, and then the glass was sold to us to make this artwork.
Our background is the iPhone repair and LCD recycling industry. We have been repairing phones for over 3 years and recycling phone screens for the last year. Screens that are too broken to be recycled must be thrown away - that's where we come in. We'd prefer to not crowd our landfills with hazardous waste, so we make stuff out of it by hand, in the USA.
Check out what we have available!
This is crafted out of 12 panes of iPhone glass, one for each hour of the day. Minimal and elegant, a perfect addition to any room.
Add some more personality to our picture frames with a couple of highlighters!
Our coasters are lined with American-made cork to prevent it from slipping. The iPhone glass is covered in a crystal-clear epoxy resin to allow for a floating look. The ring around the outside will be milled from stainless steel metal, the same type of metal the outside of your iPhone is crafted from. As with all of our other products, these will be manufactured by hand here in Alabama.
This is crafted from glass from over 100 different iPhones. You can choose between either white or black table and glass. The iPhone glass is covered by a single pane of clear glass to prevent cuts.
Simple earrings made from actual iPhone home buttons. Pick any color you like!
Risks and challenges
The risks and challenges associated with this project is the availability of iPhone glass. We have around 20,000 pieces which is plenty for this Kickstarter project, but we will need to partner with even more repair shops to source more. We are more than qualified to this this, considering we have been in the industry for almost as long as it has been around. As long as people are dropping phones we will have products to make!Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

"I am constantly puzzled by ORE's performance in relation to VTR. Why ORE is moving up nearly 10% today without any news? And its market cap is doubled that of VTR. Even now, ORE has less oz of Au than VTR and less cash. Both will have BFS in Q3 this year. Can some longs here help explain why that is?"
IMO, ORE simply has better share dynamics. Maybe some of the regulars can better pinpoint VTR's institutional and insider percent ownership but with 155M shares outstanding, shares in the public float far exceeds that of ORE's. In regards to ORE, you have 5% insider ownership and 50% institutional ownership thus leaving 45% of shares outstanding in the public float. With 85M shares outstanding, the public float equates to 46.7M shares or so. Of that 46.7M shares or so, there must be a good percentage of retail holders that are long the stock because it is thinly traded. With those dynamics in mind, a little buying pressure can send the stock 10% higher and a little selling pressure can send it 10% lower. Such dynamics also better assists in maintaining market cap valuations.
In the case of VTR, I'm not one to proclaim manipulation. Someone out there has some shares to sell and retail interest is lacking. With the news of late, one would think that VTR would be attracting greater interest. The overhang, as a best guess mind you, must be financing. Until something more solid as to financing is announced that reduces the fear of investors as to massive dilution, VTR is apt to languish. But that then begs to question why ORE's market cap is double that of VTR's. They too face the propsect of massive dilution but have 70M or so more shares to give to arrive at the shares VTR has outstanding. And of cource, a higher stock price that denotes less in the way of dilution.

Information on this page is about:
My squash plants look great so far this season but they have grown so tall and top heavy, with huge leaves, that they are falling over and breaking off at the base. I lost two last night during a rain storm. What's wrong and how do I correct the problem?
Squash plants are vines and should be growing along the ground. For those that have broken, cover the broken area with soil and keep it watered, they should re-root.
This is my first time to grow summer squash. I have a bunch of female flowers on my plant. They have been there for about 4 days. They do not seem to be growing. What should I do for them, as the plant itself looks very healthy?
This can often be attributed to poor growing conditions (which doesn't seem to fit your particular situation) or poor pollination. You may also have plants that are producing only male flowers. Sometimes you will have numerous male flowers that suddenly drop off and don't give fruit. However, you could also consider hand pollinating plants if fruiting still doesn't seem to be taking place once females come in, as in your case. Here is an article that you may find helpful: http://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/squash/pollinate-squash-by-hand.htm
I have a small garden in middle Georgia. The squash was producing well until the bulb forming off the flowers started collapsing. Instead of filling out, they have collapsed and began rotting. What can I do?
These articles will help:
My marrows are turning yellow at end of young fruit.
It may be improper pollination or blossom end rot. These articles will help you:
My sqaush plant leaves are turning gray and it's producing fruit, but it is turning gray too.
It sounds like you have powdery mildew. This article will help:
Almost all my squash and zuchinni get about 2 inches long and then begin to wrinkle and get soft at the blossom end. They do not grow any bigger.
It sounds like a pollination problem. These articles will help:
