Not an European scholar or sage. Have tried to pay attention to the Brexit question across the pond, but unsure how well I have done so. Generally, however, it has struck me that, given real problems either way for the Brits, the best choice was to stay in the EU.
Really, there was a definitive majority to join then, so what is the plan now?
Tell me why the secrets have disappeared
cover up the traces of wasted years,
the traces of wasted years
build it up
alibies for the damned
hide away
don't ever reveal your plan.
So, what is the plan now for the always diminished, but oh so egotistically adventurous Brits, given they are woefully short on empire and hegemonic power? Oh so much like the terminally behind the queue United States?
Isn't that a lesson the US ought not heed? If not decades ago, maybe finally now?
The UK may be leaving the collective, but do they really have an exit plan? The number of modalities in which they simply cannot have a great and immediate plan are too number to plow through.
There is no easy exit. Despite the vote in the UK. Germany and France make it clear this is not easy.
Lock it up,
standing behind closed doors
give it up,
no hiding place anymore
The value of the British pound and stock prices in Asia plummeted as financial markets absorbed the news.
I don't know how it is going to be in the UK going forward. But if the vote is what it looks, the Brexit has definitively occurred, the only question now is what happens.
On the whole, pretty scary proposition, and the effort to get there seems much like the brain dead Trumpian movement afoot here in the States; i.e. shortsighted, uninformed and stupid. Hope I am wrong.
But here we all are, on both sides of the pond, looking inordinately stupid and shortsighted.
The world is being consumed by Trumpalos and Juggalos.
There is no exit.

If there has ever been an avatar as to the gimmickry and inane stupidity of those who govern in this country, it is Daylight Savings Time. Seriously, what is wrong with this picture? Golly, we will just pretend time and seasons don't exist by willfully shifting them! What a load of shit. It was stupid when it was devised and it is stupid now. I wonder how people in Alaska, who live their lives with the truth of daylight versus darkness, feel about this inane nonsense? Well, at any rate, I am getting a bit of a late start this morning, and because Arizona does not engage in the fraud of Daylight Savings Time (one of the few smart things this state's legislature has ever done) I never know what time it is other places in the world. Does anybody really care? Let's get to the football now, because the KC Royals are glorious World Series Champions, and the F1 Circus is off this weekend.
In the collegiate ranks, this is moving weekend. The bigs are starting to play the other bigs. First and foremost is LSU at the Crimson Tide in Bama. If this was in Baton Rouge, I am taking the Tigers all day, because I think they are the better team at this point. Alas, the game is in Tuscaloosa. Undoubtedly going to regret this, but I am still tending to an upset by the Tigers, but it will depend on Fournette getting untracked against a Tide defense that rarely allows that.
Clemson versus FSU is a big game. Hard to find someone to root for here, but I will take Clemson. Because Jimbo Fisher and FSU are ciminal coddling scumbags. Think Northwestern's Mighty Fighting Journalists may have a problem with a rejuvenated Christian Hackenberg and Penn State. The other big moving day game is TCU at Oklahoma State. Both are sitting at 8-0, and TCU is favored. Jerry Jones may not be winning squat (and given his constant coddling of a criminal like Greg Hardy, good) as a Cowboy, but I think his OSU Cowboys pull the upset here. Utah at Chris Peterson's Washington Huskies is another trap game. Probably the game I am most interested in, curiously, is the Midshipmen of Navy cruising their flotilla into Memphis. If Memphis gets by this game, and I think they will, people are going to have to start taking them and QB Paxton Lynch for real. Let's hope that is so.
In the pros, the game of the week has to be Green Bay at Carolina. Holy crap, the Pack sure stunk it up in Denver against the last undefeated team they played. Aaron Rodgers has never been more feckless that he was last week, including when he was carrying a clipboard for Grandpa Favre. Jeebus, that was truly ugly. Can that happen two weeks in a row to Mr. Rodgers? I don't think so, but this IS in Carolina, and Luke Kuechly and Josh Norman will be patrolling the other side of the ball. Should be a great game, but I think the Pack won't lay two eggs in a row. Which will help the Cardinals, who are on bye break waiting to head to the Emerald City for a showdown with the Squawks. Before they come home to take on the undefeated Bengals on a SNF flex game.
In other news and notes, Johnny Football did not look crappy Thursday against the Bengals. Didn't look great, but he is certainly not the Brownies' problem, a crappy team that is nowhere near as good as Cinci is the problem. Fish at Bills and Rams and Vikings both really are intriguing. If the locations were reversed, so too would my picks be. But I will take both home teams here. For once, ESPN is actually right about something, the battle between Todd Gurley and Adrian Peterson is truly compelling.
Raiders at the Steelers could be a great game. The Raiders are MUCH improved, and truly starting to play some decent ball. But this is Big Ben's second game back, and he will have settled back in by now, and I think that is the difference. Look out for the Raiders in the future though. Peyton is going to his old home. Luck sucks lately. I'll take Peyton here, though will note that Pagano is coaching for his job. So, maybe Chuck 'n Luck will pull out some more of those dandy trick plays they used to such great success against Bill Bel and the Pats! Iggles at Cowboys? Are these two teams still in the NFL?
That's it for this week lugnuts. Music by Terry Kath and Chicago.
Hi there! Been a while, hope this account still works and State Secrets or something has not overcome due process on this here blog.
So, here we are in the waning days of summer. I would have written more about the Formula One Circus but, frankly, it has mostly bored the heck out of me this year. The, still, best driver in F1 is stuck in a crappy underperforming McLaren and has to drive his ass off and hope for attrition to even score a point. That would be Fernando Alonso if you haven't guessed. While lesser drivers, with far better machinery, you know, those like the two insolent crybabies at Mercedes, have such superior equipment that they wrongfully think they are kings. It is all enough to make an old school fan like me puke. Well, enough about the circus, let's get to the real meat and potatoes of this blog's sports coverage, the NFL.
As you may have heard, there is a little kerfuffle called #Deflategate that has been going on since before the last SuperBowl. On one side, we have an arrogant all powerful giant human jackass (no, not Dick Cheney this time) named Roger Goodell, and on the other, we have the epitome of bright and light, the All American Hero, and lover of supermodels, Tom Brady. If you think this is not a fair fight, and Brady is the clear winner, advance and collect your winnings.
Okay, back to Chris Mortensen's apparently shriveled journalistic balls. Let me be clear, this is just opinion (even if putatively well founded opinion), but what kind of "balls" does a man who is spoon fed lying ass bullshit by "NFL Sources" in the form of a tweet that said:
The NFL found 11 of the Patriots' 12 game balls for Sunday's 45-7 AFC Championship Game win over the Indianapolis Colts were under-inflated by two pounds per square inch each, league sources told ESPN's Chris Mortensen on Tuesday.
Obviously, as the actual testing (not to mention the late great "Wells' Report) confirmed, that was an outright giant flaming LIE. Call it what it is, it was not a minor discrepancy, it was an outright flaming lie. A lie that led directly to the public outcry that begat what we now know as the multi-million dollar boondoggle bullshit "#Deflategate".
Peter King (no, not the militant chickenhawk moron from Long Island, the other one from Sports Illustrated) was fed the same blatant inflammatory lie by what appear to be NFL officials, but King had the balls, and intellectual integrity, to apologize.
Did Chris Mortensen or THE WORLDWIDE LEADER, ESPN, have the intellectual and moral integrity to apologize? No, of course the craven bastards did not. In fact, Mortensen silently deleted his original tweet. What a gutless and tiny balled coward. And ESPN has proved itself to be an oppressive behemoth that is willing to put itself, and its allegiance to the NFL, above their journalistic ethics. How pathetic.
That blatantly false report germinated the entire waste of time that is now #Deflategate. Seriously, without Mortensen's and ESPN's relentlessly trumped up and featured false report, tagged on by King and SI, there would simply never have been #Deflategate. But it was clearly something the NFL wanted pushed, and they got their want, one way or another. Oh, by the way, is there further evidence that ESPN and Chris Mortensen may be dishonest news sources without a shred of credibility? Yes, yes there is. Mortensen reported that the Kraft family and Patriots had apologized to him. Was that true? No, according to the Krafts on behalf of the Patriots, that was blatantly false.
Here is the thing: #Deflategate is a house of cards built on a pile of dung. If you have an iota of concern for fundamental fairness and due process, you ought be offended – even if this is only a civil labor law mess involving millionaires against billionaires. It all matters, and the labor law principles in play here are beyond critical to all union workers and collective bargaining agreements, not just those of rich athletes. So, yeah, don't kid yourself, this matters. A lot. If Tom Freaking Brady cannot get fundamental fairness and due process on a collectively bargained agreement, how the hell do you think a UAW, Teamster, teacher, or any other union member will? If you haven't noticed, labor in this country is under direct attack. Don't be the guy (or girl!) that aids that attack just because this iteration of the conflict involves Tom Brady and/or rich athletes. This matters, both in general as to all workers under labor agreements, and to your hometown sports teams and players too.
So, there you have Chris Mortensen and his tiny disingenuous balls, but what about some overall facts and law on #Deflategate? Got you kind of covered. And this is especially timely since the last big actual live court day is coming up on Monday, August 31st. So, here we go with some various background resources for you. If you are interested, please read them, you will be better informed. If not, that is cool too, but understand there are very good reasons I take the stances I have on #Deflategate. Off we go!
Soooo….where to start? How about a prediction, you want a prediction?? Sorry, don't have one. BUT, I will say this, I have read most of the transcripts and filings, and I do not subscribe to the thought that Judge Richard Berman's clearly antagonistic position to the NFL/Goodell side is all posturing trying to force a settlement. Is there some of that going on? Trust me, almost certainly. By the same token, by my experience, and I have a little, there is simply no way Berman is being as consistently pointed and dubious of one side, the NFL/Goodell, as he has been without being convinced their argument is lame. Yes, judges often play "devil's advocate", but what Berman has engaged in strikes me as well beyond that.
So, while I won't make a prediction, the Brady/NFLPA side must feel pretty positive about how it has gone so far. I am understating that a little.
So, on what grounds do I think Brady and the NFLPA may win on? Two grounds – 1) Notice and 2) Process denial regarding evidence and witnesses by the NFL, to wit, Jeff Pash and related evidence.
First off, the "Notice" argument. A new net friend I have met in this process, but one I greatly respect, Dan Werly, has summarized "Notice" quite well here.
Then there is the "Pash preclusion". Jeff Pash is the General Counsel to the NFL. He is also its Executive Vice President. Those are not necessarily copascetic if a corporate entity wants to maintain even the reduced semblance of "attorney/client privilege" of having a "corporate counsel". Seriously, this kind of privilege comes close to vapor when you commingle your attorney with corporate leadership. But that is exactly what the NFL has done here, and much more. And that is peanuts compared to the fact that the NFL made Pash the effective, really de facto, co-independent "investigator" (they even stated it in a press release) along with Ted Wells and then gave Pash editorial control over the so called "Independent Wells Report". then Goodell refused to make Pash available for testimony, stating that he was irrelevant and privileged.
Ooops, did the arrogant Goodell and the NFL bugger their own ruse beyond belief as to Pash? Yes, and it is crystal clear. Even Judge Berman was incredulous.
Then, later…
Yes, arbitration decisions are given "great deference" by courts, and generally are not disturbed. But they can be when they present genuine issues of fairness and partiality. #Deflategate may be a silly case to most of the lay public, but these are serious and critical issues in labor law, and if the exacerbated issues in the Brady case cannot be addressed by a court, then pretty much no labor arbitration can ever be. For a far more detailed explication of the Pash problem, see this outstanding piece by Ian Gunn.
I invent the wheel only when I need to (and mostly when clients pay me to); I try to not do so when it has already been done by worthy people before me. Dan Werly, Dan Wallach, Michael McCann, Brian Holland, Alan Milstein, Raffi Melkonian and Ian Gunn are folks that did the hard lifting while I was, mostly, away frolicking at the beach in La Jolla when the most critical filings came out. All fantastic people that I came to know because of Roger Goodell's #Deflategate folly. Hat's off to them, as well as Stephanie Stradley with some fantastic early scene setting. These are all serious people that you should follow, not just for #Deflategate, but for any sports related law and thought. I think all, including me, feel Brady and the Players Association have the far better hand, in both posture and presentation, than Goodell and the NFL. Really, it is not even close, though there is no telling what Berman will do in the end. By this time next week, we will know.
Welp, I may have focused on #Deflategate more than I intended. Or not. This post was meant as an acerbic discussion point, not a full on explication, which would have consumed thousands of additional words. F1, and sports in general have just been boring lately, as you can tell by how often I have bothered to write about them. But the legal machinations in #Deflategate have been fascinating, at least to me. The All American boy Brady, the Boris Badanov evil Goodell, the flamboyant crusading Player's Association lawyer Jeffrey Kessler, the Snidely Whiplash Ted Wells to the calm but annoyed judge Richard Berman. The characters are all there.
So, that's it. Rock on lug nuts. Trash talk like you are Michael Jordan. Do it up. But, if you don't agree with my #Deflategate thoughts, you can send some Dead Flowers. By the US Mail. And don't forget the roses…
There are multiple better voices here to address the apparent demise of Firedoglake, whether briefly or at length. I was, in a way, an interloper by chance. By fortune, actually. Because I was asked, for inexplicable reasons I will never fully understand, but will always treasure, to join Emptywheel when it morphed from The Last Hurrah into the Emptywheel blog at Firedoglake. Yes, I had been a decent contributor to both Next Hurrah, and, often, FDL, but still it was a bit of a shock when it came.
I can honestly say I, as a result, encountered some of the finest and most genuine people in my life. That happened because of FDL, both as to the lifetime friendships with people that are here with us, including, most notably, Marcy, and all the others. Marcy, Rayne, Jim White, Ed Walker, Rosalind….and, please, let us not forget Mary and some of the others no longer here. All that came, at least for me, out of seeing Scooter Libby coverage early on nearly a decade ago. At FDL.
This medium may be digital, but it has wings and real life beyond the URL's and binary code or whatever. The people I have met and interacted with as a result of being around FDL were, with little exception, remarkable, intelligent, wonderful and I think the world has been made better by them.
So, to Jane Hamsher, Christy Hardin Smith, Siun, Pachacutec, Richard Taylor, Karl, Suzanne, Bev Wright (Bev and Book Salon was one of the most awesome things ever), Ellie, each and every one of the fantastic moderators who were the ones who kept the enterprise really alive for so long, and a host of others that allowed me to participate with them, thank you. There are too many to list, and I love one and all. You will all be missed, and I apologize to the too many other friends I met there and have not listed. You know who you are, and thank you.
I am starting to see eulogies all over the web, and most are quite decent. FDL was right, and early so, about the rule of law, the Cheney Administration, torture, surveillance, marriage equality and ACA/Obamacare, just to name a few of the plethora of topics breached on her pages. The voices have not died, but, now, the common enterprise has.
I will leave it to others to say where exactly FDL fits into the hierarchy and history of the blogosphere, but it was certainly up there. Thanks, and vaya con dios FDL.
Update, from emptywheel: bmaz forgot to mention DDay, but I'm certain it was an oversight.
The BREAKING NEWS tonight is nine people being shot to death in Charleston South Carolina. From ABC News:
Nine people were killed when a gunman opened fire in a historic Charleston, South Carolina church Wednesday evening and police were searching for the suspect.
Police said that eight people were found dead inside the church. Two other people were rushed to the hospital and one died.
"We're still gathering information so it's not the time yet for details," Mayor Joe Riley told local newspaper The Post and Courier. "I will say that this is an unspeakable and heartbreaking tragedy in this most historic church, an evil and hateful person took the lives of citizens who had come to worship and pray together."
CNN further reported that the knee jerk mayor of Charleston told reporters that it is all obviously a "hate crime" because people in a church were shot.
Is this, yet another, mass murder with all too easy to bring to bear and fire guns in the US tragic? Yes, obviously. Tragic is being too kind and semantically vague. It is horrid.
But, please, it is NOT worse because the victims were church goers, as their lives are not worth more than agnostics, atheists or other humans. Black children are worth no less than white suburbians. One faith is worth no more than the next or none at all. Just stop with that blithering idiocy.
Human life is precious, and we are all entitled to live. You are not privileged more than me, no matter how pious you may be, or pretend to be.
So, grieve mightily the gross and unnecessary loss of life in Charleston South Carolina tonight. But those lives are worth nothing more than Eric Garner, Walter Scott, Michael Brown or other human senselessly slain in the ridiculous gun fetish culture of the United States. And, no, Mr. Mayor, the locus of the shooting in a church does not de facto make it a "hate crime". Stop with that bogus over claim too. Hyperbole is the antithesis of informed viewpoints.
So, I heard on the radios today that the "sharps", "insiders" and other "experts" were calling this weekend a "guillotine" because there were so many make or break games in both college and pros. Seasons on the chopping block and whatnot. I was doing about 85 with the sunroof open and did not quite catch who it was blathering this bunk, but it struck my fancy. What the hell, make it so, this is hereby now "Guillotine Week!" Hard to think about guillotines without good old Madame Defarge sitting there knitting. Knitting. Endlessly knitting. So, thus the title theme of Defarge and guillotines. Nothing but the most wholesome fare for our readers!
Okay, so we lead off this week with probably the most compelling game of the year, the Michigan Wolverweenies at the Northwestern Fighting Journalists. Hahahaha, just kidding. Nope, the game of the week is right here at Sun Devil Stadium where Notre Dame will be taking on the ASU Sun Devils. I will be rooting for the home team of course, but they have their work cut out for them. For starters, while ASU has had a decent team over the years, every time they have been on a big stage with real glory there for the taking, they get killed. Take last year's Pac-12 Championship game against Stanford for instance. It is just a fact, the Devils don't show up when the lights are the brightest.
So, will the pattern of big game disappointment hold again this afternoon? Both teams are 7-1, and they are ranked 9 and 10 in the polls currently. ASU's loss was a blowout to UCLA, the Irish loss was a nail biter to Florida State. The Irish are two and a half point favorites. ASU's defense is good, but will be missing their best defensive tackle, Jaxon Hood. They also have an annoying tendency of giving up big plays, and Everett Golson is one hell of a QB, both on the ground and in the air. The 2.5 spread on this game feels too small. Taylor Kelly, the Devils starting QB has just not been that good in the two games coming back from a month off with a foot injury. Honestly, Mike Bercovici, who filled in when Kelly was out, is a lot better passing quarterback, and ASU needs that vertical ability. Sad to say, but I think ASU is in for yet another big stage failure.
The other top shelf guillotine game in the college ranks is Ohio State at Michigan State. This game, like ASU and Notre Dame is a knockout round for consideration for the big playoff picture. A one loss B1G conference champ will likely get one of the four playoff bids, and one of these teams is going to be out of the race after this game. The Spartans just feel like a superior team to the Sweatervests, and are at home, so they look good here. The third chopping block matchup is Kansas State at the TCU Horned Frogs. Both teams have only one loss and they are ranked 6 and 7 in the country respectively. TCU really rolls up big scores, but they seem flaky for some reason. I am taking Kansas State in an upset. In other news, SEC studs 'Ole Miss is playing some powerhouse known as the Presbyterian Blue Hose. Seriously, the Blue Hose?
In the pros, the Browns already laid an ass whuppin on the favored Bengals in Cinci. And the solid play of Brian Hoyer has started rumors that Cleveland will trade Johnny Football, maybe to the Cowboys (and we know Jerry Jones still pines for him). The first guillotine game is the 49ers at Saints. Both teams are 4-4. A loss hurts San Fran more than New Orleans because going to 4-5 would put the Niners in a huge hole in the NFC West, where the Saints would still be in competition in the woeful NFC South. I think the Saints roll at home i the dome. The Fish at the Lions has an air of importance about it too. Miami is quietly on a roll with their offense starting to be as solid as their defense. Detroit is at 6-2 and near the top of the NFC, but they are desperate to keep their lead on Green Bay, who is home at Lambeau against the Bears. The Chiefs at Bills is another game that seems to be a turning point for both teams. I think the Chiefs pull off the road win.
Also on tap is the Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos. Hamilton seems to have locked up the drivers crown, although Rosberg is still within range. Hard to see Nico pulling it off though, he just can't get his early season momentum back. In other news, the arbitration hearing on Ray Rice was held over the course of two full days on Wednesday and Thursday. There is a gag order, ad therefore little hard information, but it does seem that Ozzie Newsome backed up Rice regarding Rice having been honest and fully disclosing to Goodell. Goodell was crossed by Jeff Kessler, who is very good, for over two hours. That must have been interesting.
Okay, there you have it. Music this week by the late great Warren Zevon.
[Update below]
So, the New York Times today has up another in their series called "Room For Debate". Today's topic is "catcalling", and the supposedly relevant question for debate is "Do We Need a Law Against Catcalling?" The 'debate" is based on the "catcalling video" that has gone somewhat viral the last couple of days. First off, let us stipulate that catcalling is disgusting and reprehensible, and there seems to thankfully be a bipartisan consensus on that. But does the New York Times make it a fair debate when it comes to criminalization of public speech? No, of course not, there are three contributors who specialize in seeking to restrict clear First Amendment speech on this subject against one token policy guy from the ACLU who gives the "whoa, hold on there" position. Hardly a "fair and balanced" fight, but the framing itself makes it crystal clear the Times did not want a fair fight.
Frankly, the fact that the NYT was determined to push the knee jerk attack on free speech side was patently obvious from the fact of their title "Do we Need a Law Against Catcalling" and that is exactly what they put up. Which, considering that the New York Times has led the pantheon of First Amendment law for decades, is a rather astounding and depressing thing. I guess the Times' love and protection of the First Amendment tails off quickly when their own rear ends and press rights are not on the chopping block. A disturbing position.
This is but the latest example of a growing victim culture trend that is willing to abandon the founding Constitutional principles, and shift inherent burdens of proof, out of emotional angst. There is the attempt to criminalize speech in via so called "revenge porn" laws. There is the astoundingly intellectually backward desire of Ezra Klein to eliminate due process and shift the burden of proof onto the accused – presumed guilt – in state government sponsored punitive proceedings in state universities. And now this.
These are all feel good laws fighting against things that are detestable – revenge porn, non-consensual sex and flat out rape on college campuses, and verbal harassment of women on city streets and in public places. Those are all terrible things that we should all be firmly against, and I am. But just because there are terrible things out there in our world does not mean there is always an appropriate path to eradicate it through ever more broad and vague criminal laws. That is a path our founders took great care to protect against, and one we would do well to keep in mind when emotions try to overcome Constitutional protections.
So, in conclusion, no, we most certainly do NOT need a law against catcalling. Furthermore, in the true spirit of Halloween, I boo and hiss in the general direction of the hypocritical New York Times, who apparently view the First Amendment as protecting them, but not the rest of us non-journalist common citizens.
[Note: It is my belief that this will be one of multiple entries from a group of friends who are either practicing criminal defense attorneys, or heavily involved in the criminal justice system. Our own "More Room For Debate" if you will, because the Times will never seek out actual practicing criminal defense lawyers when talking about, you know, criminal laws. Those in for the debate, or hopefully contemplating it, are: Scott Greenfield from Simple Justice, Gideon from A Public Defender, and Liliana Segura from The Intercept. All of these people, and their blogs, are simply superb, and you should be reading them. When and if they post their entries at their sites, I will update with links here]
Update 1: And Scott Greenfield has weighed in with his take.
Despite the obvious heat surplus and water shortage issues, Arizona continues to be one of the most growth intensive states, and has pegged much of its future on what can be loosely called "smart sectors" such as information technology, solar, chip making and, indeed, higher education itself as evidenced by the recent Starbucks/Arizona State University partnership.
You would think, given the above factors, and many more, Arizonans would be meticulous and scrupulous about the leaders they elect to shepherd the state's educational system. But you would be wrong.
The power and control of Arizona's education system rests in the hands of an elected State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Sadly, it has been a position occupied by common, and morally bankrupt, conservative political hacks of late. From 2003 through 2011, the office, the fifth highest elected office in Arizona, was held by Tom Horne, the current embattled Attorney General of Arizona. Horne was a line construction lawyer who up and got elected Superintendent of Public Instruction. But, hey, how much worse is that than when a podunk lawn mower repairman got elected Maricopa County Sheriff (which was before the office went totally into the sewer with former travel agent Joe Arpaio).
Okay, Horne was awful as Superintendent of Public Instruction (and has disgraced the office of AG even worse since), but once he left, one John Huppenthal was elected to cover the educational interests of Arizona's children. And since January 2011, Huppenthal has been the one in charge of Arizona's education.
Who is John Huppenthal? Pretty much an up through the ranks of the bat shit crazy Arizona state legislature right wing political climber. People who lived in Huppenthal's district in the late 90's, when he was an Arizona State Senator, can attest that the man compulsively and inexplicably robo-called with all kinds of dogmatic messages, at all hours of the day and night. To the point to where some literally were forced to contact his office and threaten suit if it did not stop on their phone. Huppenthal and his office were stunningly cavalier and arrogant about Huppenthal's compulsive robo-calling. Yet he took to it again as Superintendent of Public Instruction in an effort to undermine the public schools he was entrusted with protecting and, instead, cravenly support private vouchers taking money away from public schools.
Such is great flavor as to the "measure of the man" that is John Huppenthal, but still mostly ancient history. How has the aggressively dogmatic Huppenthal done as Superintendent of Public Instruction, i.e. Arizona's top educator? Same old story; same old song and dogmatic nutjob dance. You may remember the controversy over "banned textbooks" by the Tucson Unified School District a little over two years ago from the somewhat hyperbolic and inaccurate "Jeff Biggers Salon expose". Well, that whole ordeal, contrary to Biggers' Salon framing, Continue reading
Proving it is never too late to shine your lame duck ass for a new generation of 1% oligarchs, Barack Obama laid open the real constituency of national politicians. And proved certain any inference that such was only the constituency and province of the GOP, Koch Brothers et. al is false.
If this is not stupid and ugly to the common Democratic fanchild, it is hard to imagine what is, or could be. From the New York Times hagiography:
On a crisp morning in late March, an elite group of 100 young philanthropists and heirs to billionaire family fortunes filed into a cozy auditorium at the White House.
Their name tags read like a catalog of the country's wealthiest and most influential clans: Rockefeller, Pritzker, Marriott. They were there for a discreet, invitation-only summit hosted by the Obama administration to find common ground between the public sector and the so-called next-generation philanthropists, many of whom stand to inherit billions in private wealth.
"Moon shots!" one administration official said, kicking off the day on an inspirational note to embrace the White House as a partner and catalyst for putting their personal idealism into practice.
"Moon shots!"
I guess the Obama White House couldn't fathom a better phrase for coming in their pants over big money.
If there is a more sick comment on the perverted state of US national politics, it is hard to imagine what it would be.
We are ruled by a bunch of oligarchs, and political handmaidens that kiss the oligarch's asses and hew their beck and call. If the fact the great once and forever symbol of the common citizen "hope and change", Barack Obama, is such a distant leader, constantly beholden to not only the future of the moneyed class, but the current too, then there is no reality for the American public.
The well-heeled group seemed receptive. "I think it's fantastic," said Patrick Gage, a 19-year-old heir to the multibillion-dollar Carlson hotel and hospitality fortune. "I've never seen anything like this before." Mr. Gage, physically boyish with naturally swooping Bieber bangs, wore a conservative pinstripe suit and a white oxford shirt. His family's Carlson company, which owns Radisson hotels, Country Inns and Suites, T.G.I. Friday's and other brands, is an industry leader in enforcing measures to combat trafficking and involuntary prostitution.
Oh my. And holy crap.
The New York Times penned a factual report of this sick instance. Will the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, or any of the other august opinion pages of national press, deign themselves honest enough to write opinion and/or editorial pieces recognizing this political cancer for what it really is?
If you did not view the video, and listen to the lyrics in the video above, do so. Because that is exactly the class of "super citizens" your elected leaders are beholden to. The handful of billionaires count for far more than the actual billions of people on this earth.
Want proof? Look no further than the "liberal", "socialist", "Democratic" Obama White House, who just demonstrated the problem in Technicolor.
And, before you chafe, of course it would be even worse with Republicans in charge. But the question is no longer just which party is in control of the levers of power (though it DOES matter for SCOTUS), but where the values of the country really are.
It is almost impossible to fathom the country's values are with the pimple faced, Bieber banged, teenager scions of billionaires the Obama White House so calmly and cooly glad-hands.
[Seriously, watch the video from the one, the only, fantastic Tubes:
Young and rich
Everything I desire
Light bulbs with shades
in every room
And work is play–believe me
Nothing must come too hard
It comes in the mail
most everyday
Maybe our leaders should find a more representative, and morally balanced, set of leaders for the future.]
Really, get out if you are a citizen, or an American communication provider, that actually respects American citizen's rights. These trivialities the American ethos was founded on are "no longer operative" in the minds of the surveillance officers who claim to live to protect us.
Do not even think about trying to protect your private communications with something so anti-American as privacy enabling encryption like Lavabit which only weakly, at best, even deigned to supply.
Any encryption that is capable of protecting an American citizen's private communication (or even participating in the TOR network) is essentially inherently criminal and cause for potentially being designated a "selector", if not target, of any number of searches, whether domestically controlled by the one sided ex-parte FISA Court, or hidden under Executive Order 12333, or done under foreign collection status and deemed "incidental". Lavabit's Ladar Levinson knows.
Which brings us to where we are today. Let Josh Gerstein set the stage:
A former e-mail provider for National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, Lavabit LLC, filed a legal brief Thursday detailing the firm's offers to provide information about what appear to have been Snowden's communications as part of a last-ditch offer that prosecutors rejected as inadequate.
The disagreement detailed in a brief filed Thursday with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit resulted in Lavabit turning over its encryption keys to the federal government and then shutting down the firm's secure e-mail service altogether after viewing it as unacceptably tainted by the FBI's possession of the keys.
I have a different take on the key language from Lavabit's argument in their appellate brief though, here is mine:
First, the government is bereft of any statutory authority to command the production of Lavabit's private keys. The Pen Register Statute requires only that a company provide the government with technical assistance in the installation of a pen- trap device; providing encryption keys does not aid in the device's installation at all, but rather in its use. Moreover, providing private keys is not "unobtrusive," as the statute requires, and results in interference with Lavabit's services, which the statute forbids. Nor does the Stored Communications Act authorize the government to seize a company's private keys. It permits seizure of the contents of an electronic communication (which private keys are not), or information pertaining to a subscriber (which private keys are also, by definition, not). And at any rate it does not authorize the government to impose undue burdens on the innocent target business, which the government's course of conduct here surely did.
Second, the Fourth Amendment independently prohibited what the government did here. The Fourth Amendment requires a warrant to be founded on probable cause that a search will uncover fruits, instrumentalities, or evidence of a crime. But Lavabit's private keys are none of those things: they are lawful to possess and use, they were known only to Lavabit and never used by the company to commit a crime, and they do not prove that any crime occurred. In addition, the government's proposal to examine the correspondence of all of Lavabit's customers as it searched for information about its target was both beyond the scope of the probable cause it demonstrated and inconsistent with the Fourth Amendment's particularity requirement, and it completely undermines Lavabit's lawful business model. General rummaging through all of an innocent business' communications with all of its customers is at the very core of what the Fourth Amendment prohibits.
The legal niceties of Lavabit's arguments are thus:
The Pen Register Statute does not come close. An anodyne mandate to provide information needed merely for the "unobtrusive installation" of a device will not do. If there is any doubt, this Court should construe the statute in light of the serious constitutional concerns discussed below, to give effect to the "principle of constitutional avoidance" that requires this Court to avoid constructions of statutes that raise colorable constitutional difficulties. Norfolk S. Ry. Co. v. City of Alexandria, 608 F.3d 150, 156–57 (4th Cir. 2010).
And, later in the pleading:
By those lights, this is a very easy case. Lavabit's private keys are not connected with criminal activity in the slightest—the government has never accused Lavabit of being a co-conspirator, for example. The target of the government's investigation never had access to those private keys. Nor did anyone, in fact, other than Lavabit. Given that Lavabit is not suspected or accused of any crime, it is quite impossible for information known only to Lavabit to be evidence that a crime has occurred. The government will not introduce Lavabit's private keys in its case against its target, and it will not use Lavabit's private keys to impeach its target at trial. Lavabit's private keys are not the fruit of any crime, and no one has ever used them to commit any crime. Under those circumstances, absent any connection between the private keys and a crime, the "conclusion[] necessary to the issuance of the warrant" was totally absent. Zurcher, 436 U.S., at 557 n.6 (quoting, with approval, Comment, 28 U. Chi. L. Rev. 664, 687 (1961)).
What this boils down to is, essentially, the government thinks the keys to Lavabit's encryption for their customers belong not just to Lavabit, and their respective customers, but to the United States government itself.
Your private information cannot be private in the face of the United States Government. Not just Edward Snowden, but anybody, and everybody, is theirs if they want it. That is the definition of bullshit.

I have already redone all the multi-site functions, upgraded the sub-sites, and re-did the permalinks.
Here's the problem:
The Category pages (using permalinks) are broken. If you go to a category page (using a WP-generated link), the page uses the blank index.php template. (It ignores the category.php template which is had used before the upgrade.) This page thinks it's pageID = 0.
Why do my category pages no longer think they are category pages?

Abraaj May Invest in Egyptian, Saudi Arabian Companies
Abraaj Capital Ltd., the Middle East's biggest private-equity company, is in "advanced stages" of investing $20 million in small and medium-sized Egyptian companies and is also targeting investments in Saudi Arabia.
The firm will be "making two or potentially three investments" in Egypt soon in industries including "agribusiness and information technology," Tom Speechley, a senior partner, said today in an interview at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Abraaj, based in Dubai, is also considering its first small and medium-enterprise "investment in Saudi Arabia, in the health-care and information-technology industry," he said.
Speechley is chief executive officer of Abraaj's Riyada Enterprise Development Fund, set up in 2009 to raise $500 million to buy stakes in more than 100 small and medium-sized companies in the Middle East, North Africa, Turkey and Pakistan over the next four years.
Gulf Arab economies pump more than 20 percent of the world's crude oil and have been spending tens of billions of dollars on infrastructure and industry to boost growth, creating opportunities for private-equity companies. Oil-exporting economies of the Middle East and North Africa will expand by an average 3.6 percent this year and by 5.1 percent in 2013, according to the International Monetary Fund.
Saudi Arabia
In August, Abraaj acquired the North African private-equity fund of Amundi, the French asset manager jointly owned by Societe Generale SA and Credit Agricole SA. The company, which manages about $6.2 billion, took over management of the $161 million SGAM Al Kantara Fund and absorbed its 11-member investment team to boost its presence in North Africa.
In Saudi Arabia, "there is a huge opportunity for reasons that include a wave of new entrepreneurship, including women entrepreneurs, and because SMEs are often in the supply chain of larger conglomerates and in Saudi Arabia you do have larger conglomerates," Speechley said. "Right across the region we see the SME segment as both a phenomenal investment opportunity but also the key driver of economic and job growth."
Abraaj started a company in Saudi Arabia in January 2011 with 2 billion riyals ($533 million) to invest in small and medium-sized enterprises, private equity, public capital markets and real estate.

In Celebration Of The Men Of "Girls"
Let's all ogle the hot men of Girls to honor the show's third season pickup!
It's official: Girls has been picked up for a third season! (Even though it just started airing the second season.) Which means that you'll have another year of ladies living it up on the romantically unforgiving streets of New York.
That being said, it also means another year of the men of Girls in all their wonderful glory.
1. Like recent addition and regulation hottie Donald Glover…
He's Hannah's new love interest.
Because when he brushes his teeth, he looks like this.
And when he chills on a stoop, he'll look at you like this.
And when he takes off his shirt, his chest will look like this and your mouth will fall open until some nice person drops by and tells you to pull yourself together.
2. Let's also pay tribute to Irish-born lad, Chris O'Dowd.
Because he likes to watch girls be "Girls."
And when he watches you get closer with your lady friend, he'll look on like this.
He's also a total gentleman, because he likes to make everyone feel included.
Plus, this is how he looks in a tux and it's pretty darn cute.
3. Then there's Adam, who is always shirtless and we don't mind it at all. Not. One. Bit. Bothered.
And he has some wise moments, insight and overall good advice when he needs to.
He also knows what's important in life.
And when he does wear a shirt, it's usually for an important reason, like apologizing in a way that makes it impossible not to forgive him.
Again, though, this is Adam shirtless. Let's all slowly clap for that.
(Image from GQ: Read their interview with Adam Driver here.)
4. And there's also this occasional bonehead, (but in a lovable way), Alex Karpovsky.
He's great because he kisses like this.
Incidentally, he also looks adorable in a suit.
5. Which leads us to our next man to honor: Christopher Abbott.
This is how he looks with a beard and it's everything we could have hoped for. Seriously, don't ever shave that thing. You look fantastic.
6. And last up to the men of "Girls" bat is the often-curious gay roommate, Andrew Rannells.
He's really attractive and has a wave of shiny Prince Eric hair from "The Little Mermaid."
And he's fun to watch, because he tells it like it is.
Plus, sometimes he gets sloppy drunk. Like, really drunk. So drunk that he might have sex with you even though he's gay.
And this is what Andrew looks like when he makes poor life decisions and his pants are about to fall off and he's lying on top of you.
Cheers to more shirtless moments from the men of "Girls" this year! Hooray!

A method for optimal positioning of piezoelectric actuators and sensors on a flexible structure is presented. First, a two-dimensional (2-D) model of a piezoelectric actuator bonded to a plate is obtained. Then, a Ritz formulation is used to find a state model of the system in view of its control. To define an optimal positioning strategy, an energy based approach is developed. This leads quite naturally to the study of controllability and observability properties of the overall dynamical model. A new criterion based on energy assessment is proposed to locate actuators and sensors

What is the URL to all of the blog entries on wordpress based website?
I want to create a hard coded menu by not using the wp_list_pages. The menu would be:
1)About us <- page OPENED FIRST
2)News <-blog
3)Brands <- page
4)Contacts <- page
Also I want to create some nice stuff for menu styling. Change the style of the menu link by doing like that <?php if($_GET['parameter']=='about_us'){?>id="current"<?php }?>
What would be the parameter?

Please help PBPioneers keep our parks, gardens and other green areas safe for the families of Point Breeze by reporting problems within these spaces. Illegal Dumping? A broken fence? Dangerous conditions? Please report!
Notified About
924 S 20th St Philadelphia, PA 19146, USA - Schuylkill SouthwestThis new store getting ready to open on the NW corner of 20th & Carpenter Streets is a disgrace. First, they breached the party wall through the back into the neighboring property. Next, they installed an air conditioner unit right out on the sidewalk (Carpenter St side). And today they have installed very ugly & DEFINITELY ILLEGAL awnings. They have no permission, variances or anything else that would be required to allow them to do these things. Neighbors unite against this blight!!
738 S Chadwick St Philadelphia, PA 19146, USA - Schuylkill SouthwestThere is a sidewalk/curbside parking issue on the 738-769 block of Chadwick street. Emergency and delivery vehicles cannot access the street and visually impaired pedestrians cannot walk on the sidewalk of the street, all because folks are parking their cars halfway on the sidewalk and street. I almost hit a family of 5 with my car that was walking in the middle of the street because there was no room for them to safely walk on the sidewalk. Citations need to be given to those who illegally park. Phila Parking Auth explains that, in any situation, it is illegal to park on a sidewalk. Most of those who park don't reside on the block at all!
illegal dump Open1238 N. Palethorp Street Philadelphia, PA - FishtownThere is an abandoned house at this location & the back yard has become a dumping ground for all sorts including: bikes, bricks, cartons, & general trash items.
Cheesesteak Debris OpenLatona St Philadelphia, PA - Passyunk SquareCheesesteak wrappers, soda cups and cheesefry sleeves are strewn through the entirety of South Philadelphia, emblazoned with logos that make it easy to point a finger at the two biggest culprits. Pat's and Geno's need to provide more waste receptacles and should donate resources to aid in the trash clean-up that's organized by the Passyunk Square Civic Association.
5742 Pulaski Ave Philadelphia, PA 19144 - GermantownAbandoned gas station owned by Fresh Grocer is a nuisance to surrounding area.
Illegal 'Planet-Aid' dumpsters have turned the corner into a public dump. Owner refuses to clean up property .
Constant illegal parking, lane blockage Acknowledged2044 Spruce St Philadelphia, PA 19103 - Rittenhouse Square
The bike lanes on Spruce st. are barely a month old, and already they are being plagued by illegal parking, stopping, idling.
does a good job documenting parking + idling with eyes on the street, addresses, and photos
What can we do to get parking enforced? Are the neighborhoods on board?
Here are a few complaints about Spruce:
(photo taken from mybikelane website)
Illegal Parking on Grays Ferry Acknowledged2334-2336 Grays Ferry Ave Philadelphia, PA 19146, USA - Schuylkill Southwest
Cars are being illegally parked on Grays Ferry Ave Sunday morning through the afternoon creating an extremely dangerous traffic situation.
These cars need to be ticketed and towed.
Abandoned House Acknowledged1238 N. Palethorp St Philadelphia, PA - FishtownThis house has been abandoned for such a long time. The back yard is infested with rodents and mosquitoes. The yard is also filled with trash that is about 3 feet high. The back wall is leaning & encroaching on other properties.
30 Wolf St Philadelphia, PA - Pennsport-Whitman-QueenPeople treat under I-95 as a dumping ground, please clean!
709 S. 23rd. St. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - Schuylkill SouthwestThis building has a history of putting their trash out early, I've been told 40 years, I've seen it for 15 over years. The residents have a history of putting their trash out in paper bags, not in the prescribed manor, in a haphazard way, and in an illegal manner. The entrance to the building faces the 2200 Block of Pemberton Street which is a PMBC Clean Block and has been so since August of 2008. We clean the street on a regular basis. Neighbors have asked nicely that they comply without result. Neighbors have called 311 on numerous occasions to no avail. Trash collection was missed Monday and they continue to add to the trash pile. We are waiting for enforcement.
dumpster + debris blocking sidewalk Archived6222-6238 Pennsylvania 4003 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - East FallsHas been a dangerous construction site for weeks, now impassible on foot—no sidewalk what so ever as a dumpster is now on what was once the sidewalk + the street. Pedestrians now have to walk into the very busy Wissahickon Avenue to get through. It's a mess.
Abandoned House Archived2064 Saint Albans Street Philadelphia, PA 19146, USA - Schuylkill SouthwestThe house apparently was sold in December and since the former tenants were evicted, the house has been sitting there with windows open and trash thrown inside and out. I suspect someone or some people are squatting or using the place for drugs. Windows need to be boarded up ASAP!

Topeka Police have two people in custody who led them on a short chase Monday night.
It started around eight, when police tried to pull over a vehicle near 21st and South Topeka Boulevard for traffic violations.
The vehicle took off, with the people inside bailing out around Southeast 25th and California.
Officers searched and took two people into custody, police believe they faced prior warrants.
It's unclear whether a third person was also in the vehicle.

Policy Practicum: Expanding Access to Justice in California Courts for Limited-English Court Users
This policy lab offers recommendations to the California Supreme Court Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye, Associate Justice Maria Rivera of the First District Court of Appeal, and members of the California Judicial Council to increase access to justice for limited English proficient (LEP) court users. The project interacts with the process of the Joint Working Group for California's Language Access Plan and assist development of a response to a U.S. Department of Justice notice that certain Court policies and procedures may be inconsistent with Title VI of the Civil Right Act of 1964 and its implementing regulations. Numerous state and local laws are also implicated by a potential lack of access for LEP litigants. The California Commission on Access to Justice estimates that well over 7 million Californians (almost 20% of our state's population) "cannot access the courts without significant language assistance, cannot understand pleadings, forms or other legal documents and cannot participate meaningfully in court proceedings."

From Our Editors
As the head coach at the Brazilian Top Team (BTT) studios in both Boca Raton and Boston, Joao Amaral boasts a resumé that includes training law-enforcement departments and winning in tournaments such as the Brazilian national championships. At the Boca Raton facility, Joao and assistant coach Matt Janzer lead group and private classes that include both gi and no-gi Brazilian jiu-jitsu; the former is a grappling technique that aims to give smaller people the leverage to take down a larger assailant, and the latter is more like traditional wrestling. BTT's muay thai classes, featuring a style of boxing often used in cross-training with jiu-jitsu instruction, can be adapted for those interested in competitive fighting or for those simply looking to get fit or learn self-defense.

Your navigation is unclickable.
The search input field doesn't fit inside the navigation bar.
It due to downtime of ipage, i really don't like ipage now. I have tried godaddy and ipage, they claim to have uptime of 99.9% but in reality it's about 95% or even less.
Sorry Raman2572, I must have been reviewing the wrong website. Please ignore my first comment.
I like it but it's quite similar in style to Smashing Magazine.
I, personally, despise when things follow me on a page and you have your menu following me on the left. I just think it's icky to have stalking menus. Some people really like this though. One thing about the stalker menus is that on cell phone browsers, it can go horribly wrong, where it will take over the screen and not allow proper page navigation. Also, you already have the menu that scrolls down with you, so why have the side navigation stalker menu?
Also, besides that I like the design, but the titles seem HUGE and there is a bit too much blank space between the read more button and the text/next post.
The design looks more or less attractive...
But your structure is not intuitive, because the menus are hard to notice.
In my experience, this is a big issue - the users just wont easily find the information on your site, and wouldn't be able to navigate through it. They would get frustrated.
As a way of solving it though, I would advice reducing your headers and other font sizes, so that your menus would actually look prominent - as their due to look. ;)

As rhetoric heats up over Hamas' attack tunnels from Gaza into Israel, the army tells Knesset members to cool it.5 comments
Amos Harel is one of Israel's leading media experts on military and defense issues. He has been the military correspondent and defense analyst for Haaretz for the last 12 years. In this role, he has written extensively about Israel's ongoing fight against terrorist organizations, its battles during the Palestinian Intifadah (uprising) and the last war in Lebanon.
Prior to his current position, Harel, 41, spent four years as night editor for the Haaretz Hebrew print edition, and from 1999-2005 was the anchorman on a weekly Army Radio program about defense issues. He also frequently appears in the Israeli and foreign media as a military pundit.
Along with Avi Issacharoff, Harel co-wrote "The Seventh War: How we won and why we lost the war with the Palestinians", a 2004 book about the second Intifadah. The book- a best-seller in Israel - has been translated into French and Arabic, and won the prestigious Chechic award in 2005, for outstanding security research.
Harel and Issacharoff's second book, "34 Days: Israel, Hezbollah and the War in Lebanon", about the war of 2006 was published in Hebrew in January 2008, and also became a best-seller. It was published in English, by Palgrave-Macmillan Books, in April 2008. "34 Days" also won the Chechic award in 2009.
Harel is a graduate of Tel Aviv University, with a bachelor's degree in Law. He is married with three children and lives in Hod Hasharon, in central Israel.

RTI International Metal (RTI -11.1%) gets hammered after its Q4 results missed EPS estimates despite a 23% jump in Y/Y profit. Restructuring costs contributed to the shortfall as the company transitions to a fully-integrated end-to-end supplier of advanced titanium components, plus weakness in its fabrication unit due to third party material delivery delays which resulted in lower operating income.

eHi, I would love to walk with people. I live in the Newfoundland section of West Milford. I ususally walk pretty fast. I have one problem though. I used to walk with two of my children in a double jogging and carry my one year old on my back, but the DR. says NO carrying!!!! The only way that I could walk would be if my children could play around where we are walking, or some one is willing to push an extra stroller.

Years or even decades later, however, some of these people develop the characteristic features of adult-onset type II citrullinemia. Adult-onset citrullinemia type II is caused by mutations in the SLC25A13 gene. This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.[1]Adult-onset citrullinemia type II is an inherited disorder that causes ammonia and other toxic substances to accumulate in the blood. The condition chiefly affects the nervous system, causing confusion, restlessness, memory loss, abnormal behaviors (such as aggression, irritability, and hyperactivity), seizures, and coma. These signs and symptoms can be life-threatening. The signs and symptoms appear during adulthood and are triggered by certain medications, infections, surgery, and alcohol intake. The features of adult-onset type II citrullinemia may also develop in people who as infants had a liver disorder called

Bloomberg Still Popular in Poll, Even After Occupy Wall Street
Most New Yorkers still like the guy after all these years.
A new Quinnipiac University poll gives Mayor Bloomberg high marks personally, with 64 percent of voters surveyed saying they like Mike and only 24 percent saying they don't. The mayor fared less well on specific issues like the living wage bill and his handling of Occupy Wall Street, which voters disapproved of by a margin of 51 percent to 42 percent. His job performance approval is at 49 percent, but Bloomberg is polling worst among black and Hispanic voters.
