Obama to thank troops at Camp Pendleton next week
CAMP PENDLETON President Barack Obama is scheduled to speak with Marines and their families at Camp Pendleton next week, White House officials said Wednesday.
The commander in chief is expected to be at the seaside base Aug. 7 to "thank the troops and their families for their extraordinary service," the officials said. Camp Pendleton is the Marine Corps' major West Coast installation and home of the I Marine Expeditionary Force.
Lt. Ryan Finnegan at Camp Pendleton confirmed the plan, but he said details and a schedule for the visit were still being worked out. Base officials expect to know more today.
In June, the base had the largest multinational training event ever held there. Dawn Blitz 2013 included live fire, amphibious assaults, and naval and air training across the base's beaches and on San Clemente Island, the nation's only live-fire training range.
Also in June, a monument to fallen Marines who served in the 1st Marine Division's 5th Regiment was unveiled at the base. The names of 89 Marines are etched in the Vermont granite of the Operation Enduring Freedom monument. It stands opposite a memorial for Marines who died in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The regiment commands 1st Battalion, 5th Marines; 2nd Battalion, 5th Marines; 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines; and 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines. Pendleton's 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines has had the highest number of casualties of any unit since the Afghanistan campaign began. In the first 90 days of its deployment, the 3 /5 lost 24 Marines and five others who fought with them.
Obama also is expected to stop in Phoenix and then travel to Burbank to tape a segment on Jay Leno's "Tonight Show."

Like differentiability, convexity is a natural and powerful property of functions that play a significant role in many areas of mathematics, both pure and applied. It ties together notions from topology, algebra, geometry, and analysis, and is an important tool in optimization, mathematical programming, and game theory. This book, which is the production of a collaboration of over 15 years, is unique in that it focuses on convex functions themselves, rather than on convex analysis. The authors explore the various classes and their characteristics, treating convex functions in both Euclidean and Banach space.
They begin by demonstrating, largely by way of examples, the ubiquity of convexity chapter2 then provides an extensive foundation for the study of convex functions in Euclidean (finite-dimensional) space, and Chapter 3 reprises important special structures such as polyhedrality, selection theorems, eigenvalue optimization, and semi-definite programming. Chapter 4 and 5 play the same role in (infinite-dimensional) Banach space. Chapter 6 discusses a number of other basic topics, such as selection theorems, set convergence, integral and trace class functionals, and convex functions an Banach lattices.
Chapter 7 and 8 examine Legendre functions and their relation to the geometry of Banach space. The final chapter investigates the application of convex functions to(maximum)monotone operators through the use of a recently discovered class of convex representative functions of which the Fitzpatrick function is the progenitor.
The book can either be read sequentially for a graduate course, or dipped into by researchers and practitioners. Each chapter contains a variety of specific examples and over 600 exercises are included, ranging in difficulty from early graduate to research level.

of Meetings CBA Covers on Our
Regulatory Matters Page
Launches Vendor/Service Provider Partner Sponsor Program
Members Only Newsletter and Webpage Coming Soon
Based on those discussions, changes have been made to the membership structure that better align with these differentiations. Key changes include the implementation of corporate membership dues that reflect the level of participation in the California market and the establishment of a Vendor/Service Provider Partner Sponsor program that offers a range of sponsorship opportunities for companies who wish to showcase their support for this booming industry while benefitting from the combined buying power of our industry's members.
The revamped structure, rates, and benefits become effective July 1, 2016 for new members and sponsors and January 1, 2017 for current members. Beginning with the July 2016 issue, the complete CBA newsletter and key website content will be available to members and sponsors only.
CBA's Board of Directors will continue to be Corporate members with additional voting privileges and the ability to participate in establishing CBA's agenda and positions on various issues impacting the California biodiesel industry. Annual dues for the new category of Direct Industry Corporate Members will be tied to annual volumes of biodiesel or feedstock (in gallons) sold within California. Direct Industry Corporate Members may apply to join the Board of Directors (application available on our Join Us page).
CBA is excited to reach out to a broad community of industry participants about our new Vendor/Service Provider Partner Sponsor program. Beginning July 1, 2016, this program will offer three levels of sponsorship to biodiesel industry service providers and vendors, including parts and equipment manufacturers and distributors, trucking companies, chemicals and additives suppliers, and accounting, legal, RFS auditing, and other service providers.
New Vendor/Service Provider Partner Sponsors will have the option to either pay a prorated rate for promotional benefits beginning September 1st through December of 2016 or sign up for 2017 sponsorship and receive complimentary promotional benefits for September through December 2016. This new program replaces the option of CBA membership for this category of industry participants.
Revisions have been made for Non-Profit Organizations, Educational Institutions, and Individuals levels as well. See our Join Us page for details.
Despite Not Being Included in June Budget
AB 1032 Goes Into Effect Jan 1st 2016
Tax Refunds Now Available for Dyed Blended Biodiesel
Tax Refunds Now Available for Dyed Blended Biodiesel
"Our industry estimates that the problem has been effectively preventing biodiesel from being blended into 15-30% of the diesel volume depending on how much dyed diesel that terminal is handling," said Harry Simpson, President of Crimson Renewable Energy and CBA board member. "The problem has affected every terminal and refinery rack in the state that is blending, or contemplating blending, biodiesel," he added.
Below is the text of a Special Notice, dated November 2015, from the California State Board of Equalization:
"Refund of Diesel Fuel Tax Paid Available to Suppliers of Dyed Blended Biodiesel Removed from the Rack"
"Effective January 1, 2016, licensed diesel fuel suppliers may claim a refund or credit for the excise tax they paid on the biodiesel portion of dyed blended biodiesel fuel removed from a terminal rack by the same supplier. Suppliers must be able to show that they paid the excise tax on the biodiesel fuel portion of the blended biodiesel. For more information on the legislation creating the change to allow a refund of the diesel fuel tax, download Assembly Bill 1032 (Stats. 2015, Ch. 481) at www.leginfo.ca.gov/bilinfo.html.
What Changed?
Current Diesel Fuel Tax Law does not provide for reimbursement of the excise tax-paid portion of the biodiesel fuel removed from the rack as dyed blended biodiesel. Therefore, suppliers who blend tax-paid biodiesel fuel with ex-tax diesel fuel that is removed as a dyed blended biodiesel, are unable to recover the excise tax from the customer and unable to seek reimbursement for the tax from the Board of Equalization.
Effective January 1, 2016, Revenue and Taxation Code section 60501(b) will allow a supplier to claim a refund or credit for the excise tax that was paid on the biodiesel portion of dyed blended biodiesel fuel. Suppliers may file a claim for refund using BOE-101, Claim for Refund or Credit.
How to Claim a Credit on Your Supplier Return
Instead of filing a refund claim, licensed diesel fuel suppliers may claim a credit on BOE-501-DD, Supplier of Diesel Fuel Tax Return, for tax-paid biodiesel blended with diesel fuel and removed as dyed blended biodiesel fuel. Suppliers may claim a credit only to the extent of the excise tax-paid biodiesel portion of the dyed blended biodiesel removed. For further information, see BOE-810-FTE, Instructions for Preparing Motor Fuels Schedules, or our Diesel Fuel Tax program webpage FAQs.
If you have any questions regarding dyed biodiesel fuel blends, you may contact the BOE through our website at www.boe.ca.gov/info/email.html. You can also call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-400-7115 (TTY:711). Customer service representatives are available to assist you weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., (Pacific time), except state holidays."

The GGRF item is being moved to August. Because it is linked to SB 32, which was recently amended to give the California Air Resources Board (ARB) blanket authority to reduce 1990 GHG levels by 40% by 2030, it remains open to discussion between leadership in the legislature and the Governor's office.
"Funding for biofuels is in a positive position because this line item is not controversial," said CBA lobbyist, Louie Brown. Our line item is in all three plans -- the Governor's plan at $65 million, the Senate's at $60 million, and the Assembly's at $65 million," he added.
As background, legislative leadership and the Governor are divided on how to proceed with the Cap and Trade Revenues. Legislative leadership would like to repurpose some of the sixty percent of GGRF moneys dedicated to continuously appropriated projects and to consider a two-year spending plan for other projects. These discussions are expected to occur throughout the summer recess.
The legislature officially adjourns on August 30th for the year. CBA continues its efforts in Sacramento in support of its immediate goals of securing maximum funding for biofuels as part of the passage of GGRF funding this year.
CBA and NBB Submit Joint Comments on LCFS V and M Plan
Call for Exact Mirroring of EPA's RFS QAP
Call for Exact Mirroring of EPA's RFS QAP
The comments called for a simpler approach that could be handled by an existing Quality Assurance Plan service and pointed out that QAP providers can provide LCFS verification services without triggering conflict of interest concerns.
A number of concerns were raised regarding foreign entities. Arguing that ARB should reconsider its decision not to include a bonding provision, which our industry believes is the most effective option, the letter suggested an alternative approach -- to require that third-party verifiers of foreign entities maintain a level of liability insurance higher than the $4 million, which had been suggested during the workshop.
Based on concerns about fraudulent feedstock reporting, the comments strongly supported unannounced field audits and the physical verification of feedstocks for high risk contributors.
The comments also pointed out that the regulatory and financial burdens associated with this regulation with be simultaneous with those of the Alternative Diesel Fuel (ADF) regulation, which will be fully implemented on January 1, 2018, and stated a preference that the LCFS V and M regulation begin January 1, 2019 or later.
Public comment letters are posted here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/workshops/feedback.htm#06022016.
The next workshop is tentatively scheduled for July 14th. please check the ARB's LCFS meetings page to confirm: http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/lcfs_meetings/lcfs_meetings.htm#06022016.
Biodiesel producers, importers and blenders are required to report and keep records concerning biodiesel production, sales, and blending. Biodiesel distributors and retailers are only required to keep records.
Find the new FAQ and Reporting Forms at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/adf/adfdocs.htm.
The presentation for the May 23rd meeting, which has helpful diagrams, is here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/diesel/altdiesel/meetings/meetings.htm.
Note: Most in-state biodiesel fuel businesses are required to register under the Air Resources Board's Motor Vehicle Fuel Distributor program (MVDP). See article on the left.
ARB staff is on target to certify all biodiesel and renewable diesel (BD/RD) pathways before June 30th, having released the new having carbon intensity (CI) scores to applicants with seven days to approve. The new scores may be used for credit reporting purposes starting with 2016 second quarter reports.
Monitoring and Verification Rulemaking:
See article above.
AB 2323 (Ridley-Thomas): AB 2323 would have required investor-owned electric utilities to provide a discount rate program to the state's producers of biofuels, hydrogen, and natural gas similar to that offered for electric vehicles. The bill was held by the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
AB 1103 (Dodd): CBA is satisfied that recent amendments have removed the problematic issues in this bill. We had been concerned about previous language that would have prohibited anyone but waste haulers "duly authorized" by the local jurisdiction from collecting, removing or transporting solid waste.
SB 20 ( Pavley): The senator has amended SB 20 to establish a Low Carbon Fuels Council. The five-member council would be the coordinating body for state agencies' work related to the acceleration and development of the instate production of low carbon fuels.
SB 32 ( Pavley): See article above on state biofuels funding.
Biodiesel is an advanced biofuel made from waste or virgin vegetable oils or animal fats. It is a sustainable, cleaner-burning, diesel fuel replacement that meets strict quality specifications. Biodiesel derived from waste can reduce greenhouse gas emissions up to 86%.

10 on Top
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this MTV countdown series relies on Twitter and other social networks to rank people who are prominent in the pop culture scene. It's pretty mild by MTV standards, but interview segments and film/music video footage occasionally include images of women in skimpy outfits, suggestive dancing, and iffy language ("damn," "hell"). Topics like addiction are also occasionally discussed. The series is mostly upbeat, but due to the nature of the show, both positive and negative celebrity-driven events are discussed if they generate enough audience attention.
User reviews

Kids say
What's the story?
Each episode of 10 ON TOP counts down the top 10 celebrities who've been the most talked and texted about among pop culture fans in a given week. Host Lenay Dunn introduces superstars like Justin Bieber, Megan Fox, and the casts of hit movies like Harry Potter and Twilight -- or whoever makes the list due to the chatter they've generated throughout social media networks about their music, movies, and personal lives. Interview clips and behind-the scenes footage featuring each star are also included.
Is it any good?
10 on Top is essentially an updated version of MTV's popular audience-driven countdown shows like TRL -- it just replaces screaming fans, emails, and phone calls with tweets, texts, and other digital forums to reflect the current generation's reliance on social media.
Although the show is fun and upbeat overall, expect a bit of iffy stuff, including a few eyebrow-raising dance clips and celeb discussions about topics like addiction. And there's a slight tabloid-like quality thanks to the use of interview footage, photos, and even YouTube videos. But unlike most tabloid shows, the material here is limited by the brevity of each segment and doesn't go too deep on serious topics. In the end, it's an appealing way for teens to check in on their favorite stars.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about what makes some people pop culture celebrities. Do you think the show's list accurately represents who is most popular today? Are they known for their talent, or are there other factors? Which stars would you vote for? Why?

Edoardo Fendi and Adele Casagrande found instant success when they opened their small Roman shop, which produced high-quality leather goods and skillfully crafted fur, in 1925. In 1965, Karl Lagerfeld started designing for the brand and launched its first women's ready-to-wear collection in 1977. The men's collection, designed by the founders' granddaughter Silvia Venturini Fendi, followed in 1990. Today, with her and Lagerfeld still at the helm, Fendi is world-renowned for its innovative designs in ready-to-wear, bags, and shoes as well as its iconic "FF" logo.

8 reviews | 4.9 out of 5
I used this product while working at a sporting goods store many years ago. It really works you out. You will be surpised about how sore you abs get. I am so glad I bought one these days. It's a great compliment to my regular workout.
This is a great ab exerciser. But be careful. It feels like you're not doing much, but you will be sore the next day! Also works your arms and back. Not really for anyone with back problems. I have had mine for years and came across it while looking for an eliptical machine. Glad they are still available. Well worth $19!!!
I've been doing sit-ups, crunches, planks, etc. since I was a teen and now that I'm older I'm always looking for a new workout for my abs. A friend of mine had one of these and called it old and said I could try it. I couldn't sit up for a week! My abs are getting the best workout ever and it really helps for those just starting to get it shape because the wheels help pull your body back so your arms don't get too hurt or end up doing the workout for you like other products. On my way to a 6 pack!
I promise you will not be disappointed. It is obviously so easy to store, and it really does work! I use it 2x a day, morning and night and for about 3-5 mins each time, and let me tell you, I feel the burn. I am actually soar the day after using it. I have tried other ab machines and they all were a huge disappointment. But you can't go wrong with this. Try it and you will know what I mean!
I FEEL A Difference with every 15 minute set. GREAT PRODUCT.
Chiping fast and Good product
The purchase was very easy through the internet with Walmart, and came in a fast delivery as expected. The product works well. This is my third machine and all have worked well. Thank you for providing this product at an affordable price.

A naive question for the lawyers. I had thought that appeals could only be based on points of law, not outcome. Can one appeal a jury verdict by simply saying "they got it wrong, we want someone else to look at it"? I had thought that a verdict was final and could only be overturned by judicial error or point of law, not finding of fact. Please correct me if this is wrong. Thanks.
yes, you can appeal and simply say they got it wrong. More specifically, QCOM must show that the jury's findings are not supported by substantial evidence.
I'm surprised you have not taken a look at the Motions for a Judgement as a Matter of Law that both sides have filed.
[ 1. Claim construction is a matter of law.
2. The Federal Circuit directs district courts construing claim terms to focuses on intrinsic evidence - that is, the claims, specification, and prosecution histories - because intrinsic evidence is "the most significant source of the legally operative meaning of disputed claim language."
3. Claim terms must be interpreted from the perspective of one of ordinary skill in the relevant art at the time of the invention.
4. Claim construction starts with the claims, and remains centered on the words of the claims throughout.
5. In the absence of an express intent to impart a different or unique meaning to claim terms, the terms are presumed to have their ordinary meaning. ]
In this case there was no "absence of an express intent to impart a different or unique meaning to claim terms". The judge was obliged to to take into account the meanings unambiguously assigned to terms by the lead inventor during his sworn testimony.
The judge made a crucial error in accepting ParkerVision's proposed "Markman" definition of "non-negligible amounts of energy". He has no excuse for ignoring the definition implied by Sorrells during his testimony under oath during the earlier Tutorial hearing.
Ah, now we move to the next step. ;-))
Having been involved with this company for a lot of years I remember most of them. Beginning with....
1. What PRKR claims to have done violates fundamental laws of physics.
2. It can be mathematically proven that the PRKR technology would involve so much distortion that it would be useless as a radio.
3. Boeing hated it.
4. Numerous companies have looked at it and it does not work at all.
5. Well, it works but it provides performance inferior to already existing alternatives.
6. Well, it works but it provides no advantage over already existing alternatives.
7. Well, it doesn't work that well and anyway, PRKR did not invent it, Tayloe did.
8. QCOM does not infringe because it is using an analog double balanced mixer followed by Tx filter (Neal's assertion at trial but so risibly wrong that it effectively meant that he could not call an expert witness on infringement as his expert would have had to contradict him).
9. And now we get to THE CAFC IS CERTAIN TO REVERSE.
One never knows. I suppose the shorts can be dead flat wrong on numerous claims over a period of a dozen years and still get it right once. If it is appealed, which seems likely, we will see.
First, no one knows what you are talking about, including you;
Second, the judge has absolute discretion to exclude anything stated at the non-adversarial tutorial, and would have no reason to even consider it to any extent contradicted by intrinsic patent evidence ... you have zero chance in the circuit court with that one.

(Generic versions may still be available.)
Ergotamine is an alpha adrenergic blocking agent with a direct stimulating effect on the smooth muscle of peripheral and cranial blood vessels and produces depression of central vasomotor centers. The compound also has the properties of serotonin antagonism. In comparison to hydrogenated ergotamine, the adrenergic blocking actions are less pronounced and vasoconstrictive actions are greater. Caffeine, also a cranial vasoconstrictor is added to further enhance the vasoconstrictive effect without the necessity of increasing ergotamine dosage.

Raymond Vorpahl, an 89-year-old babysitter from Wisconsin, is due in court today on charges of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl and a 42-year-old woman.
According to the complaint, Vorpahl had sexual contact with the 13-year-old on Dec. 20 in his Green Bay home, and with the 42-year-old woman in May 2009. He's been charged with a felony and a misdemeanor for the alleged assaults, respectively.
He turns 90 years old next Tuesday.
Vorpahl has been running babysitting and foster care services out of his home for decades, which has led police to believe there may be more victims who have yet to come forward, says Ashwaubenon police Lt. Jody Crocker.
"We're looking to see if anybody else had a contact with him that might have been assaulted by him," he says.
Vorpahl was charged in Brown County court yesterday.
Since his arrest, police have learned that Vorpahl's foster care license was suspended 30 years ago "after he exposed himself to two of the kids," says Crocker, though Vorpahl has continued to babysit kids over the years.
"Anybody can babysit, but to be a foster care or state-appointed home for someone, that's a different story," says Crocker. "The state-appointed home is what the license was pulled for."

This monograph considers in detail the Ménière syndrome, covering practically every phase, both anatomic and clinical. Among the subjects discussed are the anomalies of the vestibular function, the cerebral nervous phenomena, tinnitus aurium, and the diagnosis and the treatment of Ménière's disease. The authors, especially Dederding, have done an enormous amount of experimental work. The question of the influence of water intake and its effects on various functions of the ear forms an important phase of the consideration of Ménière's disease in the present publication. There are appended summaries of the book in German and in English, and these are of great value to those who are unable to read French. A rather comprehensive bibliography is also given. The monograph is printed in large type, illustrated with a number of tables and audiometric charts, and is written in a clear, easily understood style. While some of the conclusions of the

"An Ancient City Once Called Bearn" Lescar by hquittner
Lescar Travel Guide: 5 reviews and 25 photos
Today Lescar is a suburban area of Pau with a pop. 6K. Once it was the center of the Bearn area and its church which was started in 1120 was a cathedral. The members of the Albret family were buried in this church. The most interesting aspect of the church is the floor of the choir which is in part covered with mosaics depicting hunters and wild animals, which were placed there in the 12C.
- Pros:The Choir Has Animal Mosaics
- Cons:It Is No Longer A Cathedral
- In a nutshell:A Rare Romantic Cathedral

Have cups for water very hot day
everything was good
Possibly provide a lock, when equipment is rented(dolly) when dropping off truck after hours, have no means to secure hand trucks.
Giovanni was phenomenal. Nestor less so (to a much lesser extent as I was merely handed the truck keys by Nestor). I didn't deal with anybody else save for one person ... Melody Lopez.
I dread Melody Lopez having crossed paths in my life. For starters, while she was originally pleasant such didn't last long. She was entirely inept, of no value - and in fact wholly screwed things up at - the counter. She screwed things up so thoroughly that Giovanni had to come over to ameliorate ... and was he ever capable, professional, polite, and amazing in his execution of the issue. given her so thoroughly screwing up the fulfillment of my reservation I was in the office awaiting my vehicle for approximately 40-50 minutes (I don't remember how long exactly).
Once my reservation was fulfilled and I was cleared to drive off with the truck, I presented her the rental contract and she told me I would have to essentially wait my turn in line as a gentleman getting a propane tank refilled "was there" before me. I replied to her that the only reason he was there before me is that she had so thoroughly botched up my reservation inside the office that I was now at the facility for nearly and hour since having arrived on time for my appointment.
So she refills the guy's propane cylinder, then starts awkwardly and with no progress towards bringing my rental up front starts to maneuver trucks around the yard/driveway. By this time I was an hour late to meet people at my house/property - who were "on the clock" on my dime, no less.
Granted, nobody died, of course, nor did the world come to an end, but inasmuch as U-Haul has always been my go-to truck and trailer equipment rental choice I will seek out other options next time, regardless the cost/price differential, if any. And, if I do go back to that facility - and they've always been a good one to deal with - and Melody is there I am walking out to never return, no exceptions.
This woman is a stain on the fine people that work for the company and on the U-haul organization itself. she should not - in my never so humble opinion - be working in a customer service-oriented position, nor with the public in general. Perhaps a job feeding slop to ever-so-grateful, and non-descriminate, hungry swine is more suited to her temperment, lack of customer service skills, and general crappy attitude (and at a situation and its consequences borne purely out of her actions, decisions, behaviors, and ineptitude.
First of all, i went to the Redlands location,but they didnt have a pick up. They checked online and found my truck at the Baseline location. I went rhere and picked it up...in and out in 15 mins. No fuss. No muss. I loved driving this "bad boy". Staff is excellent at both locations!!!
Inside of truck had bad smell
frequent renter discounts
Great customer service!
Just keep doing a great job like you are ??
On holidays it gets real busy so you might want to add a person on them days
The truck was hard to drive you have to floor the gas. It drove like it has a transmission problem. Lucky I didn't have to go far.
Everything was good.
Staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. The 5x8 enclosed trailer I rented was a little "beat up" but otherwise worked well for my needs. My only complaint would be that only one staff was available upon pick up and the wait was long. Drop off was very easy.
It was a Saturday morning at 7:30 and there was a line of about 9 people with only one person to help. He did an excellent job, but we had at least a 25 minute wait in line.
Need more employee's. Guy did all he could do with 14 customer's by himself on a Saturday morning.
Advice customer better about cost associated with rental ensure gauges are working properly deliver clean vehicle to customer
Easy to use!
They charged me a fuel charge even though I brought the vehicle's fuel back the same as it was given. Well tell others not to go to this location on Yelp and other social media outlets.
I rented a small truck and upon returning it on the same day, I was charged a $34 fuel fee. I called and they said based on their notes the tank was full and it was not. I added the exact gas it had before dropping it off. There shoukd be better communication to avoid having to add unnecessary fees when I complied with the terms and adding the gas.
The truck I rented had a quarter tank of fuel when I picked it up. I brought it back with 3/4 of a tank. I should be reimbursed for that fuel. You would charge me if it were reversed.
Mirror not working make driving very difficult charge 29 for gas I didnot use. Please call me 951990 3484.
I reserved a trailer. When I went to pick it up, they wanted to give me a truck. They got it straightened out but it was annoying.
I don't think you can fix my problem with this location. Both driveways are horribly placed. They are difficult to use.
Make sure you have what a person need, Make sure person working is Not sick with Flu spreading Germs next Time. Was very upset with That

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- Two-time U.S. champions Rena Inoue and John Baldwin have switched coaches and are now training with former world silver medalists Jenni Meno and Todd Sand.
Inoue and Baldwin had worked with Phillip Mills for the past two seasons.
"We are honored that they have accepted the challenge of coaching us through the next Olympic Games," Baldwin said Monday. "We have always looked up to Jenni and Todd as a pair, and we see many similarities between their career and ours both on and off the ice."
Meno and Sand won three U.S. titles and skated at the 1994 and '98 Olympics. They were three-time world medalists, and their silver in 1998 is the best finish by an American pairs team since Tai Babilonia and Randy Gardner won in 1979.
Inoue and Baldwin have medaled at the last seven U.S. championships, winning in 2004 and 2006. They were seventh at the 2006 Olympics.

The troublesome operation of reordering the stack in stack sequential decoders is alleviated by storing the nodes in a systolic priority queue that delivers the true top node in a short and constant amount of time. A new systolic priority queue is described that allows each decoding step, including retrieval, reordering and storage of the nodes, to take place in a single clock period. A complete decoder architecture designed around this queue is compared to a conventional stack-bucket architecture from both speed and cost points of view. The proposed decoder architecture appears to be faster, affordable, and compatible with convolutional codes having long memory and high coding rate

In the end, our stay was ok but it definitely
Started off on a bad foot. The room we reserved had a bad odor to it. It unfortunately had carpet and so we think this was the main reason. When I originally called to reserve, the person I spoke to was very nice and the service the rest of our duration was also good. But when we went to talk about the odor in our room, they did offer a room with hardwood floors but for a more expensive price. I was bummed to not get the same price we had but lived with it. I originally chose this place because of the location to all parts if Kauai which I was happy with for our whole stay. It ended up not being too much of an issue because we just slept there and showered - we didn't spend much time in the room at all. If we go back to Kauai, I plan to look for another place to stay. I liked that it was not a high end resort, but think they should make all rooms hard wood and put a little bit into remodeling.

David Dances.
Death looms on one side, barrenness on the other, and between them, in that steep narrow place, David leaps, twirls, shimmies wild-limbed on the air.
He is close to 40. Maybe his wound-haunted fleshtrained for war, hardened through exile-dwelling, borderland skirmishes, and Saul-dodginghas in these later years softened. He doesn't have to get his bread by begging or brigandage anymore. He doesn't have to bully the neighbors, hide in caves, fake insanity. He's lord of the land. He's king. Years of wiliness and austerity and hardship have given way to a long season of prosperity, luxury, ease.
And maybe his body feels it. Maybe on cold mornings his limbs have a stiffness like wood splints on the joints, and his tough supple body gathers a heaviness, a fleshy sediment: the wound of idleness and indulgence.
But today he dances, near naked, with all his might, undignified.
He did this once before, months ago, and a man died. It was Uzzah, a priest. As David danced, there was an accident: an ox stumbled, a cart lurched, the ark of the covenant riding on it tottered, slid, threatened to tumble to the ground.
Uzzah's instincts were razor-sharp and lightening-quick. He was ready for just this kind of thing, vigilant, hands hovering in anticipation. When the moment of crisis came, Uzzah was there, prepared, saving the day. He touched the ark, and God smote him dead.
On this day, David's dance will end in a domestic battle, a bitter fight with his wife. Michal, Saul's daughter and David's first wife, is unimpressed with David dancing. She is, in fact, disgusted. Grown men shouldn't carry on like that. Certainly the king shouldn't. Kings should conduct themselves with proper decorum, in a manner befitting their stature. It is irreverent, grotesque even, these wild flailing calisthenics. It is what common people might do.
God struck Michal barren.
Between death and barrenness, David dances. His motions are both natural and desperate: a bird flying, a man drowning, the thing he was born for, the thing he'll never get used to. Choreographed by yearning and wonder, this is the dance of the God-struck, the God-smitten. This is the dance of the one who dances in fire, at cliff edges, on high wires, in the midst of mortal peril, between death and barrenness.
Uzzah watches with tense worry, and dies. Michal watches with brittle scorn, and dies childless.
David dances, alive, fully alive.
This is an odd story (2 Samuel 6:5-7, 16, 20-23), and startling. It is a story with a wrenching undertow of menace and violence. It is a story too seldom remembered in context. Most of us retain only a thin polished fragment of it: the image of the happy, leaping king. Lately the story has been used to justify physical expressiveness in worshipfrom hand-raising and hand-clapping to liturgical dance to mosh pits.
But it is a story with a darkly textured backdrop: death looming over there, barrenness skulking over here. It begins when David wants to make the ark of the covenant a symbol of his royal authority. David, after seven years of court intrigue and brutal civil war against the house of Saul and the northern kingdom, has finally been crowned king of both north and south, Israel and Judah. Now David has breathing room. It's time to turn his abundant energy toward other things: civic development, cultural initiative, scientific inquiry, political fence-mending, worship.
The ark of the covenant baptizes David's political daring and novelty with ancient authority. It gives David the imprimatur of Mosaic legitimacy. Such might well be David's political motive in bringing the ark "home." But David, who is not above shrewd political calculation, almost always transcends it. So the ark coming to Jerusalem is not primarily a political gesture. It is primarily worship. By this, David makes a powerful statement: God is king in this kingdom, lord of this land. The king acknowledges the King beyond him, above him, to whom he owes all fealty. For whom he dances.

I feel like there must be something simple I'm missing here. Here's what I want to do:
>>> def x(*args, a=False):
... print args, a
>>> x(1,2)
(1,2) False
>>> x(1,2,3, a=True)
(1,2,3) True
But you can't define a function like that.
I know this would work, but it doesn't seem as nice:
>>> def x(*args, **kwargs):
... if 'a' in kwargs:
... a = kwargs['a']
... else
... a = False
... print args, a
What's the best way to do this?
