Interview with Joseph F. Harrison, P.E., CWS-VI, technical director of the WQA, on the calcium and magnesium issue and the possible impact on the water treatment industry
Fighting Water Softener Bans
Dealers are rightfully concerned about the spread of legislation prohibiting water softener discharge into city sewers and septic systems. Although California is the center of industry efforts to protect the market against arbitrary bans, in the last two years several other states have issued rules prohibiting septic tank discharge.
Nationwide legislation regarding softener discharge impacts dealers
Preengineered Systems Don't Always 'Fit'
Whether it is an issue of limited space, material compatibility or just challenging feed water, there always will be a need for custom-engineered solutions in the water treatment industry. Lee Co. of Nashville, Tenn., first looked at preengineered reverse osmosis (RO) systems from its local water treatment equipment dealers. The company quickly realized that this approach would not fit a particular situation.
Custom-designed nanofiltration system solves space and process challenges
Metals Plant Needs High-Purity Water
Dayton Progress Corp.'s focus has been on manufacturing metal punches, punch blanks and metal stamping tools. It also would take experienced water treatment professionals to ensure that the proper quality water was used in each process. That is why it relied on Crown Solutions, Inc. to manage the point-of-use (POU) and point-of-entry (POE) water treatment for each of its manufacturing processes that required water.
Application Requires Softening, Reverse Osmosis and Other POU/POE Technologies to Purify Water on an Ongoing Basis
Farm Animals Need Clean Water, Too
In 2001, the Minnesota State Fair built a 50-foot by 80-foot state-of-the-art barn, which would feature cows, pigs and lambs. The Miracle of Birth Center was built to reflect modern animal production practices in the existing Children's Barnyard at the fairgrounds. Pregnant cows, pigs and lambs were transported from out state Minnesota for the special birthing exhibit in the Children's Barnyard.
Filtered water helps birthing animals at Minnesota State Fair
Focus on Troubleshooting Water Softeners
Let's face it, as good as water softener valves have become, certain factors can affect their performance. There also are many older units out there that dealers still have to contend with. So, in an effort to help keep business flowing, as well as softened water, Water Quality Products went in search of an expert to bring you the top troubleshooting tips for valves. The search led to Jay Runkle, employed in technical services at Pentair Water Treatment.
10 need-to-know tips for dealers
Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems
The following is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems Special Issues Fact Sheet on Water Softeners. This document supports the WQA's position on softener wastes and the fact that they are not harmful to septic systems.
Putting an End to Hard Water Problems
Glade Valley Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Marriott Hotels, Starbucks and The White House may be vastly different with regard to the people who use and manage the facilities; yet when it was time to solve water quality problems, they all looked to the same resource: Kevin Britton, a RainSoft dealer at Quality Water of Maryland, located in Frederick, Md. (part of the Washington D.C. metro area).

Back to the Basics, Part 2
How does everyone achieve effluent water that meets their needs and demands? Each situation is different, but a simplistic explanation of various technologies will be discussed in this article. Each of the following categories has had much written about them, but this article will be an overview of several methods in order to help you educate the general public so they can make an intelligent decision, purchase something of value and continually seek professional consultation.

So this theme is awesome. loving it. I love how I can edit the them with the UI without having to edit the code.
One thing that's frustrating tho, I can't just not have a logo. I either have to upload my own logo, or have the BizWay logo.
I want no logo. Is this possible? I could just upload a transparent logo but I'd rather just not have any image there.

I am currently working on a project that requires users to down vote and upvote things, an example being links in a post.
I have all of the voting data saved into custom fields for each post.
Currently when a person down votes or upvotes something I have a Javascript function that makes a xmlhttprequest to a PHP script somewhere on my server.
The script loads wordpress functions using

I am wondering if this is the best way to go about getting this effect and what is the best practice for doing something like this?

1. I tried this ACPI Backlight and I'm having brightness control in my display settings now, but changing it makes no difference. I think my DSDT has to be corrected. Maybe you can give it a try and tell me how it worked.2. For the webcam you have to use Camera Control. You can start it before or after starting Photobooth et al. and you'll get a picture (if your webcam is recognized at all, which you can do by adding correct ID's in the iSight next).3. Audio really needs to be fixed. Since I've been searching so long now, I think it is impossible to add bit depths in VoodooHDA. That audio out is working correctly indicates that it has something to do with incorrect nodes for the other devices. But don't ask me how to do this. I tried patching AppleHDA with codec dumps but still no success.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

Ever dynamic, organized crime continues to change. Efforts to combat one aspect of the phenomenon, the American Mafia, have reached high levels of prosecutorial success--resulting in a decline in the organization's relative importance. Meanwhile, criminal organizations operating on a global scale have become more sophisticated and more threatening, and additional crime groups have been added to the pantheon we refer to as organized crime. Reflecting changes that have occurred in recent years, this edition updates information and analyses of organized crime as well as efforts by law enforcement agencies to deal with it.

Life is like a very short visit to a toyshop between birth and death
Desmond Morris (1928 -)
[Walter Russell] pioneered in foreseeing two of the greatest discoveries of modern times – the isotopes of hydrogen, which led to the discovery of heavy water, and the two new elements used in the atomic bomb. He announced the complexity of hydrogen to a body of distinguished scientists years before the truth of his statement was verified. But it is the atomic bomb that will prove to be the earth-shaking, epoch-making discovery of the future. The two newly discovered elements which formed the basis of the atomic bomb, called Neptunium and Plutonium, were published in his charts of the elements in 1926. He named them Uridium and Urium. He also predicted that if ever discovered the pressures of this planet would not be sufficient to hold them together. "It is almost humorous to speak 'guarding the secret, locking it up in American and British archives'", was his comment. "Knowledge cannot be locked up. It is cosmic and wide open to every thinker, and limited only to his knowledge. And there is enough new knowledge right in this country today to make this present value of atomic secrecy worthless in a very few years."

It has often been declared that the human mind could never comprehend God. That statement has been based upon the assumption that the reason we could never comprehend God is that our senses could not detect God.It is true that we cannot see God but we can KNOW Him. And therein is the essence of New Age thinking. The next hundred years will see as great a spiritual advance in the culture of our civilization as it has seen physically during the past hundred years. That which we cannot see, we can KNOW. We can see the bodies of men but we cannot see man, for the supreme Being within man is invisible. He cannot be seen. He can only be known. For the same reason we cannot see God but we can know Him, and we can know the nature of God by knowing His laws and creative processes.When we know the nature of God sufficiently to reflect His nature in us, we become God to the extent of our ability to reflect His nature in us. By knowing the secret of Light, we will know the mystery of life and death – of reincarnation, of matter and space, and the relationship of suns to planets.The more we know the Light, the more we shall realize our purpose in manifesting that Light gloriously. Every moment of life in the Light is a moment glorification in the awareness of our omnipotence in manifesting the Light.Someone once asked Toscanini's son: "What was the highest point in your father's life?" The answer was: "Every point in it is his highest point. He lives gloriously and fully every moment of his life, whether conducting an orchestra or peeling an orange."That is what we must do when we fully know the purposefulness of life – live it gloriously by living it ecstatically. We can live it ecstatically only as we know the ecstatic nature of God and become like Him through being continually inspired by communion with Him. To become like Him, we must become aware of our identity with Him. We must know Him as Creator of all that is, and in so doing know ourselves as creator of all that is.
Source: The Message of the Divine Iliad (Vol. 1) (Divine Iliad)
Man must begin to the unitary principle of man – knowing that there are not separate men or separate individuals, but hat the whole man idea is one. He must know that all mankind is connected with every other part of mankind, all geared together by the one omnipresent Light of God which centers all as ONE and motivates all as ONE. Until man knows that separation from God is impossible, even for one second, he does not begin to have knowledge.
Beyond the genius is the mystic. The mystic is one who has attained cosmic consciousness by a complete severance of the seats of consciousness and sensation. He is then almost totally unaware of his body and is totally aware of the Light of God centering him. Omniscience comes to him in that timeless blinding flash of light which is characteristic of a complete severance. This experience was described in the illumination of St. Paul. Every timeless flash of intense inspiration which comes to any man is a partial illumination, for inspiration is the manner in which new knowledge comes to man from the cosmos. Of all mystics, Jesus was the outstanding example of all time. He was the only One in all history to have known complete cosmic-conscious unity with God. The Bible refers to cosmic-conscious experience as "the illumination" or "being in the Light" or "in the Spirit." In all history less than forty cases of partial cosmic consciousness are known, and probably not more that three of these anywhere nearly approached the complete state of illumination experienced by the Nazarene. Cosmic Consciousness is the ultimate goal of all mankind. All will know it before the long journey of man is finished, but there are many in this new age just dawning who are ready for it in part, if not fully. Many desire it fully, but it is best that it come bit by bit for the complete severance is very dangerous. The ecstasy of this supreme experience is so great that one does not wish to come back. The power of severance of soul from body is within easy accomplishment, but to step back into the body is very difficult.

"Do you think that civilization advances because of things written in books? Not a bit of what is written in books ever got there until after the thought of it happened in someone's mind. Someone first had to collect it from space, or recollect it from its electrical pattern to which he (or she) had been attuned. The book is but a record of what has already happened."
There are in fact two things, science and opinion; the former begets knowledge, the latter ignorance.
Hippocrates (c.460 - 400 BC)

It is foolish thing to take credit for a matter over which we have no control. We never created this intelligence. It is given to us. This body is granted to us. So, while we have no control over the body or knowledge of the brain, we are still ready to take credit for any discovery we make. It is for this reason that I say in every book I have written that whatever I say is not from me but from a power above and beyond. I am merely the instrument. In that sense we all are instruments of a higher power.

I am trying to convert a string of signed binary numbers to decimal value in C++ using stoi as shown below.
stoi( binaryString, nullptr, 2 );
My inputs are binary string in 2s format and stoi will work fine as long as the number of digits is eight. for instance "1100" results 12 because stoi probably perceive it as "00001100".
But for a 4 bit system, 1100 in 2s format equals to -4. Any clues how to do this kind of conversion for arbitrary bit length 2s numbers in C++?

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - A Montgomery teacher says he couldn't get his supervisors to believe that students in his class were abusive and violent, so he videotaped his students at their worst.
The videos taken by the teacher, Jessie Tompkins, were given to Montgomery TV station WAKA, which showed them on a newscast Wednesday night.
They show a student throwing a book and a chair.
They also show Tompkins being shoved by a student.
Tompkins, who teaches at Fews Alternative School, said the students had previously denied they were acting badly when questioned by school administrators.
Montgomery Public Schools spokesman Tom Salter said officials are investigating the tapes.
Schools Superintendent John Dilworth said he does not approve of the behavior shown on the videotape.
He said appropriate disciplinary action would be taken.

Brian Nicholson, El Observador de Utah
This is the first article in a four-part series on immigration
PROVO — Ruth Ceballos sits on her faded white couch, her elegant hands clasped in her lap, as the late afternoon sun streams through the front window. She has worked all day, and she is tired — the exhaustion is evident on her face — but she will not take off her shoes, even though her feet ache. In her native Colombia, it is rude to go barefoot in the presence of guests, and despite two years in this country, there are some customs from the old country she still honors.
In some ways, it seems like a strange dream that Ceballos is here, in this small wood-frame house on a quiet street in Pleasant Grove. While some cross the border in days, and others in weeks, it took Ceballos a decade to get to the United States. That's because she came here legally. In October of 2007, after a decade of wading through government red tape, she finally won a visa.
The trouble was, Ceballos had been trying to get a visa for so long that her three children had grown into adults during her decade-long wait, meaning that because they were no longer minors, they would not qualify to immigrate with her and her husband.
Ceballos had a choice. She could stay near her children in Bogata, or she could immigrate. She chose America, with hopes of bringing her children here later.
While the immigration debate is often framed around those who come here illegally, people like Ceballos are emblematic of another part of the story that is rarely told and often misunderstood.
The State Department reports that some categories of Mexican immigrants who are now being processed have been waiting for visas for 18 years.
The long wait may explain why so many people jump the line and immigrate illegally — and also why many illegal immigrants fear deportation.
"I think almost any immigration attorney that you ask will say that the immigration system is simply broken. That's why we have people who have broken the law," says Roger Tsai, president of the Utah Chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. "But we also have broken laws."
The time it takes to immigrate legally to America depends largely on what relatives an immigrant already has in the country or what kind of education and job skills the immigrant can offer. Last year, the State Department reported that 3.7 million people are waiting in line for visas. At current rates, it would take 15 years to accommodate them all.
The luckiest of all potential immigrants are the spouses, minor children and parents of adult U.S. citizens. The federal government sets no quotas for them, so their immigration is supposedly relatively immediate.
But the experience of Clayton and Silvia Alvey shows such cases can still take time. When Clayton, a U.S. citizen, and Silvia, who is from Nicaragua, decided to get married, they looked at different ways to get a resident visa for Sylvia. If she immigrated as Clayton's fiancée, it would require an initial wait of six months to enter the country. What's more, they wouldn't even be able to begin the final application process until after they were married. Even then, the application could be rejected. They decided instead to marry in Nicaragua and wait for the visa there. Just filing the required forms took two months. Fees, medical exams, vaccines and other work cost more than $1,400.
A concert pianist who graduated from the University of Utah, Clayton had to give up his job to move to Nicaragua while he and his fiancée waited for approval. He started a small business selling and repairing XBOX consoles to save for what it would cost to immigrate to Utah.

Really hard time deciding on #2
I have a 5 yo and a 2 yo. I own/operate a business. My office is out of the house, but I also have a rented space that I work out of too. I love that about my job because I work and I am still able to be with my boys. However, it does take longer to get things done, so I literally work from 6 am to midnight or 1 daily (between job, kids, house, etc). Do I have any time for myself...no. I try to work out 4 days a week and that is my only regular "me time." As with anything, you have to make time. I have to force myself to put aside the dirty dishes or the emails in my inbox and schedule a date with my husband. Every month or so I make myself plan some girl time. It's very easy to get caught up in all the stuff you have to do, so you have to make yourself have that time. But, day to day down time...doesn't happen.
But for me, I love having both my boys. I love hearing them play together. I love the bond they are forming and the experiences they will share growing up. So, not having 10 minutes to myself at night is a small sacrifice for all the fun and joy I'm getting out of experiencing raising both my boys and watching them grow up.
Joyfully married to DH
Mommy to DS #1 (June 2007), my sweet angel DS #2 (1/10/2011-6/16/2013), and our DD (Sept. 2014)
Just wanted to add, you find ways to make down time. Like right now, I had a meeting at 6 (usually they last until 7). DH took ODS to his basketball practice (and took YDS with him). My meeting got out early, so I have 30 minutes before the kids get home. I could be cleaning up my kitchen, but instead I'm sitting here on BBC. LOL..procrastination...maybe, down time...definitely! So you learn to find little minutes here and there to stop and breathe.
Joyfully married to DH
Mommy to DS #1 (June 2007), my sweet angel DS #2 (1/10/2011-6/16/2013), and our DD (Sept. 2014)
Believe me, this can be done, and once you're there you won't be able to imagine life any other way. Good luck with your decision.
I'm pregnant with #2, because I just kept thinking to how before I had DS, I thought I was so busy and my life was so full and there was no way I had room in my day to care for a kid and all that, but somehow it all just fit in. Priorities changed, etc. No, I don't get a lot of "me time" or even couple time, so that's one of our goals for the year. Schedule our own down time. Right now, DH decided he's going to bed. It's 9:30. I want my own time, so I'm staying up til 10. Tomorrow, we're doing date night for my birthday. Monday night, we're going to Bible study which is for us in a way too. We would like to try to get it set up thought that say, every first Friday of the month, we go on a date. Every second Friday of the month is my time, third Friday is DH's time, and fourth Friday is a special family night. Then it's only one sitter per month, but we all get what we need.
Cara ODS 5.5 *SPD, Speech delays YDS 3 *ASD, Speech delays EDD 1-18-17
When I'm feeling overwhelmed I remind myself of moms I know whose kids are in elementary school. They tell me it gets easier. I also sometimes take a day off from work and take the whole day to myself. I found out that the YMCA includes child care while you work out and I joined pronto! I don't feel guilty about that at all because the kids like playing there.
Date night is non existtent right now since we just moved and don't know anyone to sit for us. But honestly we are cool with being homebodies.
A friend of mine w 3 kids ends up just staying up later for her down time.
I have a 6yr old and Turner who will be 2 tomorrow!! I really like this age gap Addi was way more independent and a great helper. WHich made it great and alot easier when going from 1 to 2. I also have to work fulltime and we own are own business and I work there also so I work Alot but my kids come first and everyone understands that including my boss! I do take days off work to have me time or I use running errands as me time. I don't get a ton of me time but when you get you really enjoy it!
We do date nights about once a month sometimes more sometime less it just depends on what going on. The one thing that I love is that are group of friends all have kids the same age so we do "play dates" in the evenings and get everyone together which is alot of fun.
Amber wife to Trent since 9/4/04
Mommy to Addison Lynn 12/4/06 & Turner Ray 2/2/11
My 1st just turned 2, and I'm due with my 2nd in August. I always thought I would have them closer together, but as time went on I couldnt imagine adding to the family. Then we finally decided to try...and got pregnant the first month haha surprise!! I can't answer your questions about "me time" and fitting it all in; but I think you just make it work. As one of the PP said, before children I always felt like I was so busy. I didnt even know what busy was!!

Is there a difference between when a person says 'I exists.', compared to the same person saying ' I'm existing.'? Is the person saying at the one time 'I exist.' saying he exists at a certain moment and has the 'functional capability' to exist for further moments in the foreseeable future? And when the person says I'm existing, maybe this is like the former statement yet emphasizing that the 'existing' is a functional capabilty to exist that is ever continuing , like a self-sustaining quality.
I wouldn't read any serious metaphysical conclusions into the difference between the simple present and present progressive tenses in English, if for no other reason than that not all natural languages make such a distinction.
You cannot be certain that you are existing as your memory may be deceiving you, only that you exist at the moment when you are asking the question do 'I exist.'

Cattle Drop as Global Economic Woes May Curb Demand; Hogs Gain
Cattle futures fell to the lowest in two weeks on speculation that a sluggish global economy will curb demand for commodities. Hog prices rose.
The Standard & Poor's GSCI Spot Index of 24 raw materials tumbled to the lowest since October, with 21 commodities dropping, on signs that the European debt crisis is escalating. China, the biggest consumer of everything from copper to soybeans, has no plans to introduce stimulus measures to support growth on the scale similar to 2008, the state-run Xinhua News Agency said yesterday.
"A weak tone with these outside markets" drove cattle lower, Don Roose, the president of U.S. Commodities Inc. in West Des Moines, Iowa, said in a telephone interview. "That's a limiting factor here."
Cattle futures for August delivery fell 1.4 percent to settle at $1.17925 a pound at 1 p.m. on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, after touching $1.177, the lowest for a most-active contract since May 14. The commodity has risen 3.3 percent in May, heading for the biggest monthly gain since January.
Feeder-cattle futures for August settlement dropped 1 percent to settle at $1.56075 a pound.
China's economy is forecast to expand 8.2 percent this year, based on the median estimate of analysts surveyed this month by Bloomberg News. That would be the slowest since 1999.
Hog futures for July settlement rose 0.4 percent to settle at 88 cents a pound in Chicago. The commodity has climbed 2.4 percent this month, heading for the biggest gain since January.
Wholesale pork rose 1.1 percent to 78.83 cents a pound yesterday, the biggest increase since May 14, and prices are up 1.1 percent this month, U.S. Department of Agriculture data show.

Legislature in brief: May 8, 2012
Published: Tuesday, May 8, 2012 at 11:13 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 8, 2012 at 11:13 a.m.
Hornets tax break nears final approval
A 10-year, $37 million tax break for the New Orleans Hornets is nearing final passage with backing in a 7-2 vote from the Senate Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Committee.
The House-approved measure, House Bill 1072, heads next to the full Senate for debate.
The tax break, sponsored by Rep. Cameron Henry, R-Metairie, is part of the state's deal to keep the NBA team in Louisiana.
Watchdog group: Keep La. corruption investigator
A nonpartisan government monitoring group Monday urged lawmakers to restore money for the Office of the Inspector General in next year's budget.
"The role and skills of the Inspector General's office are especially valuable during tight budget times. The state needs a self-motivated watchdog agency to stop waste, mismanagement, abuse and fraud in executive branch government," said the Public Affairs Research Council of Louisiana in a statement.
Rep. Joe Harrison, R-Napoleonville, amended House Bill 1, the state's $25 billion operating budget last week to remove $1.7 million from the office.
The House Appropriations Committee last week approved the measure, stripping the $1.7 million for the inspector general and removing reference to the office in the budget.
Lawmakers claim the agency's work overlaps the duties performed by other law enforcement and auditing offices in state government.
The office was created in 1988 by then-Gov. Buddy Roemer in an executive order. Gov. Bobby Jindal and lawmakers agreed to create it in state law four years ago.
PAR said in recent years, the office has found abuses including excessive overtime by government employees, the illegal use of law enforcement databases and theft by state workers. More than a dozen people have been arrested tied to those investigations.
"A sudden halt in funding of the Inspector General would terminate ongoing investigations and send a message nationwide that Louisiana government is open for corrupt or wasteful business," PAR wrote.
'Popular vote' proposal rejected by state House
The House rejected a bid to have Louisiana join an interstate compact seeking to elect the nation's president by the popular vote rather than through the electoral college.
The "National Popular Vote" proposal, House Bill 1095, failed 63-28 Monday.
Here is how Houma-Thibodaux representatives voted:
For: None.
Against: Truck Gisclair, D-Larose; Dee Richard; a Thibodaux independent; Lenar Whitney, R-Houma.
Absent: Gordon Dove, R-Houma; Joe Harrison, R-Napoleonville.
The state Republican Party opposed the bill by Rep. Walt Leger, D-New Orleans, while the state Democratic Party backed the idea. Lawmakers disagreed on whether the change would give Louisiana more or less attention from presidential candidates.
Leger said Louisiana gets ignored by presidential contenders because the state has fewer electoral college votes compared to other, larger-population states. "It makes every vote count, regardless of where you live," Leger said.
Opponents said metro areas in other states, like New York, still will have more people and will attract more attention. They defended the current system as having checks and balances to ensure more equal representation among states.

Almost all of the news media is reporting that the Supreme Court gutted the voting rights act this morning. That is both deceptive and factually incorrect. The court has specifically avoided ruling on the constitutionality of the voting rights act, instead leaving it to the Congress to decide, most recently sidestepping the questions in the June 22, 2009 decision. It did not address the question of whether or not the law itself is permissible.
The Supreme Court did not strike down the Voting Rights Act. The Supreme Court struck down the current formula that is used to determine whether or not a specific part of the country has to get permission from the Federal Government before changing its voting procedures. The system that the Justice Department had been using is based on out-of-date statistics and methodology that were supposed to only be in place for five years. Instead, they kept being extended until they are now 40 years old, and had been renewed so that they weren't set to expire until 2031. It is absolutely insane that people would think it is a good idea to use data that is 66 years old to determine current policy, yet that is what had been put in place and would remain for another 18 years until the existing expiration was triggered; though history tells us it probably would have been extended yet one more time.
So here we are, in 2013, using data and methodology that is decades out of date to determine which states have problems with racism instead of updating the information to modern society. That data is a older than I am. My mother was in elementary school when it was put in place. In fact, the median American citizen is only 35 years old, so this formula is now older than a majority of the people who live in the country!
As per the Justice Department's website, the areas that had to cede sovereignty on voting laws were determined by state or political areas where "less than 50 percent of persons of voting age were registered to vote on November 1, 1964, or that less than 50 percent of persons of voting age voted in the presidential election of November 1964." That was so long ago that my grandmother couldn't even vote, yet, as the 26th amendment to the Constitution that lowered the voting age to eighteen hadn't yet been ratified. They weren't using a trailing provision or anything like that; it's all still based off 1964 statistics – basic mathematics tells you that a majority of the people who voted in that election are dead. In the 1970's Congress updated the test to the 1968 election. Then in 1975, it was updated again to reference the November 1972 election. From then on, we just kept extending it but letting the formula fall out of date as years, then decades, passed.
The Supreme Court did not say you couldn't have a Voting Rights Act. It did not say that, given the egregious history of racism, the Federal Government couldn't take extraordinary measures to limit the sovereignty of the particular states and local jurisdictions that had engaged in a consistent pattern of constitutional violations against its minority citizens by requiring pre-clearance of any changes in voting laws. No, it said that the data and methodology were now so arcaic that they were no longer justified and a new calculation had to be put in place, which Congress has the power to do. It said that the formula had to be updated to 2013, not pull from elections that happened generations ago.
In fact, Congress could pass a new law that was identical in almost every respect as the old provision, but change the wording to read that there is a trailing test of, say, the past two or three Presidential election voter registration patterns that determine whether there is discrimination.
It's pretty much a non-story in that all it should require is for the House and Senate to get together and change a few words, President Obama sign the law, and it gets very little newsprint. The reason people are reacting this way is because nobody has faith that Congress will pass a bill that almost everyone agrees is necessary and has done a lot of good for countless people. There is nothing controversial here – the Congress should order pizzas, get together, and pass it in a day. That's how basic this thing is. It shouldn't be political at all.
The way the media has portrayed this story demonstrates that they think the American people are stupid. Most folks, if you sat them down and explained the difference between the Voting Rights Act and the formula they used, would be able to understand it in under two or three minutes. It's not that complicated. "Hey, the Supremes said we can't keep punishing certain counties and states for what they did in 1964, we can only punish them for recent crimes, so we need to change the date on the law so that it re-evaluates them every decade or so."
See? It's not hard.
If I had unlimited funds, I'd start a newspaper that did nothing but report facts with absolute zero slant at all, even on issues I cared about deeply. The sole guiding focus would be "Who, What, Where, When, Why" and require verification of multiple sources. I can't imagine it would be profitable, though, after the stupidity that passes for news these days – the front page of CNN has stories at this moment that include:
- "T-shirt angers Taylor Swift fans",
- "77-year-old golfer to pose nude",
- "Epic battle: Dog vs. baby duck", and
- "Obama: I'm not that sexy."
If I had unchecked legal power for the day, I'd bring back media ownership restrictions because the merger and corporate consolidation of the news providers in the United States is, in my opinion, one of the greatest threats to our long-term felicity and security. A fearless reporter at a family-owned paper a couple of generations ago could be protected by the owner's willingness to pursue what he thought was right. Now, no one wants to report on anything controversial in case it alienates people and causes advertising profits to dip, which, ironically, is causing the news to become worthless and accelerating the decline.
I'd do it to banks, too. I think the consolidation of banking and media into a handful of giant enterprises has done tremendous damage to a lot of people that far exceed the benefits.
Edit: I don't mean to sound down on the United States – things are still overwhelmingly good. I just can't stand that the media now caters to the lowest common denominator, much like the average public school district, and our Congress is so dysfunctional that it can't even pass simple legislation.

After you take your women/man friend (no need for judgement) to a sweet candle lit dinner and movie and it gets time for some romancing, and Keith Sweat or The Temptations can't get you in the mood, this song right here will make you and your lover's loins erupt in pleasure. I can see it now, because I am a dirty, dirty man.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
It's like hearing a chorus of electric mice on steroids.
By the way, how did you record the background music? Did you use some sort of software, or is that actually a band?
the guitar is made of two separate takes of me playing layered together, the drums and bass are programmed, the vocals were indeed made by rounding up a box full of mice and giving them steroids. was it that obvious?

SAN FRANCISCO — To fans and the countless collectors who helped build painter Thomas Kinkade's commercial art empire, his idealized vision of the world usually served as a simple, soothing addition to the living room wall: a soft depiction of a churning seascape or a colorful garden or a cottage brimming with warm light.
Kinkade's vision, and the artworks he prolifically created from it, paid off handsomely for the self-described "painter of light," whose business grew into franchised galleries, reproduced artwork and spin-off products said to fetch at their peak some $100 million annually and adorn roughly 10 million homes.
Kinkade, who died Friday in Los Gatos, Calif., at age 54, embraced his popularity even as he drew less than appreciative attention from those within the art establishment who derided him, at least in part, for appealing so brazenly to the widest possible audience.
"In their minds, he represented the lowest type of art," said Jeffrey Vallance, an artist who hosted a show of Kinkade's artwork in Santa Ana, Calif. in 2004. "He was different from other artists. You kind of felt like he was giving people what they wanted."
Kinkade's art empire included reproductions of his numerous paintings in hand-signed lithographs, canvas prints, books and posters, calendars, magazine covers, cards, collector plates and figurines. As his art drew wider and wider attention, Kinkade didn't shy away.
"It is clear that everyday people need an art they can enjoy, believe in and understand," he wrote in a catalog to the 2004 show.
For Kinkade, such art meant light-infused renderings of tranquil landscape scenes, homes and churches that evoked an idealized past, some of which included religious iconography.
As word of Kinkade's untimely death spread Saturday, fans flocked to some galleries to buy his work.
"It's crazy beautiful. We're struggling with our own emotions, yet the public is coming in and just buying art off the wall," said Ester Wells, gallery director at the Thomas Kinkade Signature Gallery in Pismo Beach, Calif. "Right now, people are just coming in and buying everything in our inventory."
Many customers bought art as a tribute while others said it was a smart investment: they feel his work will now be worth more down the road, Wells said. Others stopped by just to say how sorry they were to hear of his death.
"We're going to lose a great artist to the world but we'll never forget him," Wells said, adding that she thinks Kinkade will be remembered as another Norman Rockwell
Kinkade regarded Rockwell as his earliest hero. His mom had a big collection of copies of Saturday Evening Post magazines, he said in a biography on his website.
"The scenes were nostalgic and brought back very happy memories for people," said Marty Brown, who owns four galleries in Southern California that sell Kinkade paintings. Brown's galleries had already had a record sales day by noon on Saturday, he said.
The customers ranged from curious people who'd seen news of Kinkade's death on the news to longtime collectors purchasing a few more pieces.
"Some people are coming and buying a couple or buying their first piece, or just buying something. But they all feel pretty bad, to tell you the truth," he said.
Kinkade had a fan base that was unprecedented, and he made collectors out of the many people who brought his art into their homes.
"That's market penetration that we've never seen in art, for sure," Brown said.
Yet some of the qualities that made Kinkade's art popular and accessible to everyday consumers also led to its criticism from art experts.

I'm not big on cheese as dessert, but I was born and bred in the midwest. I was lucky to get some Cool Whip on my Jell-o.
But just a shout out to Tom Wolfe, who although he may be frivolous, unnecessary, and a geezer, did write "Bonfire of the Vanities" which is a rollicking good read.

Half: USC 14, Boston College 0
Calm has been restored to the Coliseum.
A week after USC and Coach Lane Kiffin were loudly booed in a home loss, the fans had something to cheer in the first half Saturday, as the Trojans took a 14-0 lead over Boston College at halftime.
Quarterback Cody Kessler, named the full-time starter on Monday, completed 11 of 12 attempts for 174 yards and two touchdowns, including an 80-yard score to Marqise Lee.
USC's typically strong defense allowed only 63 yards in the first half.
Perhaps as an answer to those who criticized his playcalling in last week's loss to Washington State, Kiffin started Saturday's game with a play-action bomb. Kessler's pass went off Lee's fingertips, but the crowd cheered wildly.
USC didn't score on the first drive, but the Trojans took a 7-0 lead on their second drive, which went 86 yards and took 7 minutes, 44 seconds, off the clock. Kessler scrambled and flipped a 5-yard touchdown pass to Tre Madden.
The Trojans took a 14-0 lead with 8:49 remaining in the first half, on the first play of a drive. Kessler threw a mid-range pass to Lee, who turned upfield and raced the rest of the way for an 80-yard touchdown.
USC nearly had a third touchdown, but Lee's recovery of a blocked punt was called back because of a lineman who was ruled offsides.
