The Estradization of Marco Rubio
posted at 4:56 pm on October 5, 2011 by Jorge Bonilla
The long-simmering feud between Univision News and Senator Marco Rubio is about much, much more than a decades-ancient drug story. Like the network's telenovelas, this saga has many chapters and different plot twists. However, there is only one overarching story line…one which we've seen before, and which conservatives should monitor very carefully.
Fox News reports that four GOP Presidential candidates (Huntsman, Perry, Bachmann, Romney) have announced they will boycott Univision's debate, scheduled for January 29th. This boycott stems from allegations that Univision attempted to extort an appearance from Senator Rubio on Al Punto (Univision's Sunday equivalent to Meet The Press, et.al), in exchange for "softening or spiking" a story about a 1987 case involving his brother-in-law. The Miami Herald broke the story on Monday.
This attempted coercion of Rubio and intimidation of his family is something I'd expect from The Mob, not from an allegedly respectable news organization.
On the night of July 5, Rubio received a call from his sister, Barbara Cicilia. She was distraught. A Univision reporter had called her about the arrest and incarceration of her husband, Orlando Cicilia, in the 1987 federal bust called "Operation Cobra." Rubio was 16 at the time. Before Rubio was elected to his first legislative seat, in 2000, Cicilia was cleared for early release.
Mrs. Cicilia refused comment. Univision then sent a news truck to sit outside their West Miami home.
On July 7, Alex Burgos, Rubio's communications director, and Rubio's political advisor, Todd Harris, held a 45-minute conference call with a handful of top Univision editorial staffers, including Lee, the news chief who handled most of the discussions for Univision. Harris represented Rubio as Burgos took notes. Rubio was not on the call.
Toward the end of the conversation, Lee brought up Ramos' show and suggested the drug-bust story could change — or not run at all, according to Harris and Burgos' notes.
Said Harris: "You're saying that if Marco does an interview with Ramos, that you will drop this investigation into his family and the story will never air?"
Lee, they say, responded with this statement: "While there are no guarantees, your understanding of the proposal is fair."
Yet, Univision did not risk journalistic suicide just to get Rubio to step into the immigration cage with Jorge Ramos. These acts can only be viewed within the context of the ongoing Estradization of Marco Rubio; that is, the overt or covert act of racial borking designed to suppress "minority" conservatives at any cost.
Let us never forget Miguel Estrada, whose nomination to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals was torpedoed by Democrats terrified at the thought that he could become the first Hispanic nominee to the Supreme Court. Estrada was (and is) not beholden to Hispanic grievance groups such as La Raza, MALDEF, or LatinoJustice PRLDEF. Thus, he could not be counted as a reliable vote for affirmative action, amnesty, redistributive justice, or any of the other causes near and dear to these organizations…causes also near and dear to the Democratic Party.
Let us remember their smearing of Estrada as "extreme", "outside of the mainstream", and "radical". Let us never forget the effort, led by Chuck Schumer and Patrick Leahy, to deny an otherwise highly qualified candidate (as stated by current Justice Elena Kagan) an up-or-down vote. Furthermore, let us remember their vicious smearing of Justice Clarence Thomas (which continues to this day) as proof of their intolerance of anyone who comes from a "minority" background and dissents from their worldview, or refuses to know his or her place within the liberal plantation.
There are those who make a handsome living by selling the twisted notion of submission to progressivism as proof of Hispanic authenticity (counter, in many cases, to traditional Hispanic values), and will do anything to keep that gravy train flowing. Some of these identity merchants (the true sell-outs, if we are to really going to have this conversation) work in grievance organizations, some work in mainstream newsrooms, and others ply their trade on Capitol Hill. They see Rubio as a threat, as proof positive that someone of Hispanic descent can win elected office without having to kiss La Raza's ring.
The immigration grievance lobby, the institutional Left, and their media enablers shudder at the notion that a conservative Hispanic could rise to power without submitting to their ideology or otherwise owing them anything. They are even more afraid of the example that this could set for Hispanic children, and of what this means to the long-term prospects of institutional Hispanic media here in the U.S.
This existential fear is the main driver behind efforts to smear Rubio as "inauthentic" or not sufficiently Hispanic. It is the fear of irrelevance, and of Oblivion.

I only want the user name rather than the rest. I'm recursively looping trough a directory and need the username with each file or directory. I use stat to get file attributes that I need which gives me uid. Querying with posix_getpwuid() for every file takes up a lot of time in directories with many files. I came up with a caching mechanism (which I believe should be built-in). Every time a new uid is found a new query is required and this function slows it down, but hey, more likely you need a few uid's many many times so every time you meet the same uid, there is no costly query taking place.
Heres my code, feel free, etc., etc.
$arr_uname = Array();
function file_owner_cached($uid)
global $arr_uname;
if (!isset($arr_uname[$uid]))
$arr_uname[$uid] = posix_getpwuid($uid)['name'];
return $arr_uname[$uid];
Works in PHP 5.3.19, under linux of course.. not tested on anything else.

A sphere is just not applicable as a valid solution
And finski is right about the wood absorbing the extra moisture. Otherwise we would be using thermoplastic hives with textured wood finish inside.
Quote from: derekm on January 21, 2013, 06:32:10 PMA sphere is just not applicable as a valid solutionI don't know who determines a "valid solution" or not, but my jumbo hives have survived quite well in boxes that are very close to a square. Brother Adams boxes were about square and Dadant was also fond of spherical shapes because he thought that was the most natural bee shape. I'm also seeing more condensation in my heat bubble designs as the aspect ratio increases.My hives are not instrumented, so it's hard to draw conclusions at this point, but what are you suggesting is the best shape?
I think you are making this too complicated....deknow
For the purpose of modeling, each honeybee cluster was treated as an air-saturated porous medium with constant porosity. Heat and mass transfer interactions of the honeybees with the air, the outcome of metabolism, were captured in the porous medium model as source and sink terms appearing in the governing equations of fluid dynamics
..." It demonstrates quite viscerally how the cluster behaves at different ambient temperatures. " ...
I would suggest first quantitively understand bees real environment not the boxes Man puts them in
Quote from: derekm on January 23, 2013, 03:37:30 PMI would suggest first quantitively understand bees real environment not the boxes Man puts them inIt is in Africa. What do you do with knowledge "bees in tree cavity in Africa".Bees have never been in Finland, but now they are "in human made insulated box" .You need not much understanding. You put the hive into polystyrene box, feed it full with sugar and wait then 8 months that willows start to bloom.

What our customers say about XANAX BRAND (ALPRAZOLAM) 2MG
After being tried on Klonopin, and Ativan, my doctor put my on 90 1mg xanax. I noticed that if I put it under my tongue, that it helps faster. I noticed it didn't only help anxiety. Myoclonous decreases while on anxiety, and my seizures have decreased a little. I normally don't get an aura before a seizure. If I do, I quickly chew it up and melt it under my tongue. Within minutes, I calm down, and the aura will slow down most time time. I do believe that this has aborted a seizure too. I can't stand to get out in public, my heart races, I feel this sense of panic, and then think, "What if I have another seizure in public?". Feel much calmer on this medication. It starts working within a few minutes, unlike Klonopin or Ativan."
|Patriska K.
Hi all! I was given this medicine for my anxiety, I took it for 1.5 months only. I want to advise people who take this medicine to stay clear because when doctor made dosage smaller before stopping, I began to have weird sensations, my body started to sweat and I began seeing aurora around people and objects on road and was fainting for the next three months. ER say I had grand mal seizure and need a neck surgery, it didnt feel like seizures I just felt like I was dreaming. In the ER they gave me the same medicine to treat seizure so I dont know what is wrong?? Why is this medication given if its so dangerous, I never felt like this before and was very fit athletic girl in sweden."
|Happy mommmmm
This is truly a cure all! As long as it's taken the right way and responsibly I see no problem with that whatsoever."
My doctor prescribed me Xanax after I got fired from my job for verbally assaulting a colleague. I also suffer from schizoaffective disorder and post traumatic stress disorder. Today, I felt like having a rage filled outburst at someone I do volunteer work with. I took a Xanax and within 30 minutes, I was happy and chatty and relaxed."
I deal with an aniexty disorder. Where I fear anything that has anything to do with the Apocalypse or other things like bad things in the news or conspiracy theories. When I first tried Xanax. It blew my mind. Before it I wouldn't eat or sleep because I was so worried. Now I take it when I need to and it makes me focus on things at hand."
In 2001, I started feeling like I was having a heart attack twice a month. I ended up in the ER & was admitted. I happen to be one of the lucky females who suffers from hormonal anxiety. I was given all the tests possible, stayed overnight & discharged with my first script of the smallest dose of xanax. I have used it only AS NEEDED since then and to this day it still helps me at the smallest dose once a day. I have gone through some very serious rough patches in my life which had me taking this, at most, 1.5 pills maybe four days in a row. It works so well that I can't ever imagine taking it more often than needed ~ why would you want to mess up something that works?? The key is taking it as prescribed, just like any medication."
I take Xanax as needed for anxiety or panic attacks and have for years. My Dr. prescribed as needed every 8 hours .25mg. It works great for me! I used to "fear" getting addicted but at times a year has passed and I have to discard the pills. It all depends on what is going on in my life and how I respond. I also am on Paxil 37.5 for anxiety which at time I still need additional coverage. I am thankful my Dr. Was able to assist me lead a closer to normal life."
I urge anyone to start on the smallest dose as I was pleasantly surprised that a tiny nibble of 2mg worked amazingly quick and helped curtail a full blown attack. I have taken a full 2 mg at once when panic attack was at worst. I simply fell asleep and awoke with same anxiety. If I take the small dose as I feel the attack coming on, it just stops. I know everyone is different but I have always been within the mindset that the stronger the better with meds. That has not been the case with Zanax for me. I also keep in mind this is a med that your body will eventually need more of for equal benefit. It's a miracle med for those who have unexplained fear. It has saved my marriage!"
I've been taking this medicine for 7 years. I only take the1mg pill when I'm having a panic attack. Sometimes more than other times. For me it is a God sent. That horrible tightness in your chest, and shortness in breath is unbearable. However I can see how someone could get hooked on this drug."
Xanax saved me. Apprehensive about taking meds but broke down after it got so bad I didn't even want to take the covers off my head with my eyes clenched shut just fearing every day because I knew anxiety, fear of everything under the sun and panic attacks would rule my day. I was told I needed to be on long term anxiety drugs so I tried lexapro and ended up in the er with side effects so horrific I don't even want to think of it now. Xanax is basically a quick fix to calm the anxiety but it's the only thing I'm willing to take and over time I broke out of the nightmare I was living. I still have bouts of anxiety but as long as I have Xanax on hand I know I'll be ok. I never had any bad side effects except for being tired. Trade is worth it"
|James Holden
Was prescribed xanax (alprazolam) for GAD. First few months were a godsend. After I became dependent on them, the doctor- apparently not understanding the slightest thing about dependence- upped the dosage several times. I noticed that my anxiety seemed to be getting worse and I was afraid to leave the house- a problem I had never had before. Took me a while to realize the elephant in the room- it was the "anti-anxiety" drugs! After withdrawing from the drugs- which fortunately was easy compared to the nightmare I have seen some people describe, I noticed I felt less anxious and in general, more "alive". If you feel like your anxiety isn't improving after long term benzo use- the root of your problem may be the drugs themselves!"
|Karen N
I was given xanax in the hospital when people at work thought I was having a heart attack. My anxiety shot up so bad, my heart rate was 170. Been on 2 mg a day ever since (this happen 2 months ago). I only take 1 1/2 mg a day & it works for me. I feel like I have control of my life again. I have heard stories & seen people on it who over take it but if you take it as prescribed, it works."
|Keep Fighting
I have taken Xanax for about 25 years but only as needed. There are many years I never took any & there are years I took it for a few weeks to help with my Anxiety, stress of having a child with a deadly disease & the depression that ensues. I usually take the .5mg & cut it in half and only use it 1-2 times a day, occasionally 3 halves a day. It soothes me & helps my constantly chattering, negative mind take a break. I have tried SSRIs & have symptoms of being allergic to them, so can't take them, ie muscle twitching, rash & itching. So, Xanax is my only recourse. I know it an be addictive so am very careful to take it only as needed, short courses, & usually about half the amount the Dr. prescribes. It has helped me greatly."
I started taking Xanax .25 mg for generalized anxiety over the past few days and it has helped me feel relaxed, less worried and happy also hasn't affected me with any crazy side effects. (Which I was afraid of happening) I was so scared to take them but my anxiety was getting out of control so I figured I would give it a try and see how my body handles it. I'm going to continue taking one a day since it seems to be helping a lot. I don't worry and I feel calm, the pill does wear off after a few hrs and takes about 20-30 mins to kick in but my dr says it's safe to take another one as needed. I'm also doing counseling too and it is very helpful as well. Definitely recommend this for anxiety!"
For several years I have been prescribed 1mg to take up to 3 times per day - sometimes I take less, some days even none! But I find that Xanax does for me what adderall does for children suffering add. For some reason the drug helps me have precision focus, a clear mind, better communication, rapid fire thought processing, and motivation - just for starters. I don't expect to take it for the rest of my life, but I go thro prolonged periods of anxiety and antisocial behavior (will urinate in bottles in my room when at my worst). Glad to know there are a few people who Experience the same effects using Xanax as Maintenance. It's been a life saver for me! Curious to understand why it has this off label effect on us select few."

I have been suffering from panic attack since 2013 and was kept on Xanax .5mg TDS really its the drug which can enhance the Quality of life. Even though we have the xanax regularly but some times panics and anxiety comes, i though to cure anxiety off when met to psychiatrist he prescribed Zoloft 50mg once a day along woth clonazipam .25mg at bed time, having satarted that panics came with great intensity i left both Zoloft and Revotril and rejoin Xanax the problem solver... Thx Almighty who has put lots of benefits in Xanax..."
Very helpful in reducing anxiety for me. It is fast-acting, and it made a difference in me being able to keep up with my job. Now, I'm on Klonopin though since the doctor said that it stays in the system longer for anxiety. However, the fast relief of Xanax works very well when an immediate spike in anxiety happens. The effects usually only last a few hours for me, and I can understand how it can be addictive for this reason, but it's been great for immediate panic symptoms and helpful with focusing. I did not notice that "drugged up," foggy feeling on a small dose of .5 mg-1 mg as needed."
Xanax has really helped me with my anxiety and it's not habit forming to me. It helps me a lot!"
I am on a 1mg dose of xanax on and off for about a year for imsonia, night panics and generalized anxienty. And I can say this is the best pill. Worked great for me. It helps me feel calm allday and relaxed during the night so I can get the sleep I need. Gives me energy during the day when I drink green tea early morning."

Fantastic, I've used it to generate really good looking documentation for various languages
Thanks very good project! +
very good project, thanks!
Highly recommended. Lets you document concepts and logical types, as opposed to only the physical types. This is in contrast to Doxygen, which focuses on the physical types. Also, the comments in the code (where you read them most of them time) are much less cluttered and look more natural than with other systems. On the minus side, unlike Doxygen it does not do full syntax parsing of C++; and the fact that each function has a prototype and a definition creates duplicate topics if you document both. Also, single-file PDF documentation cannot be generated (though you could use some tool to convert the HTML website to a single PDF). On balance, this is my documentation system of choice. Many thanks to the author, hope he continues improving it.
Wow! Very nice! :D

To elaborate on my winery perspective: I list wines on amazon.com to take advantage of one of the most popular search engines. People looking there for wines in my categories will find me and maybe I gain a new customer. To that end I list a broad selection of currently available wines to attract that search.
On wine.woot I am also trying to gain new customers but to that end I am usually offering something a bit more unusual and hopefully attractive to the wine.woot buyer. (Actually, the usual process is that WD emails me to say he has openings, I look at my inventory and find something to close out a little quicker ;) )

Monounsaturated fats (think olive oil) are good for cholesterol, you want a greater %, not a less % of them. It's all relative though, duck fat might be good compared to other animal fats...not sure.
You're not nitpicking! You are correct and the blurb is wrong. Duck fat is rich in UNsaturated fat, very much like olive oil,with similar health benefits, but unlike olive oil, it can be heated to a high temperature. Sorry for the confusion.
So what does truffle butter taste like?
iissurf wrote:So what does truffle butter taste like?
It's hard to explain. Truffles have a very strong, pungent earthy and musky flavor. Yet, when mixed with other foods (eggs, chicken, steak, whatever) it marries with those flavors and actually enhances them;sort of magnifies them like a lens, instead of overpowering them.
A dollop on a grilled steak is a classic way. My favorite is buttering toast with it and dipping in soft boiled eggs. Yum!
My items arrived yesterday night in D.C. and they're ice cold! Looking forward to gifting these!
mine came yesterday to nyc and was ice cold as well. no ice pack, but thick styrofoam and cool weather must have helped. i tasted a bit of the black truffle butter with bread last night and it was very tasty =)
I'd just like to put an idea out there, that these are more finishing butters than cooking butters. I've tried cooking with them and the truffle flavor isn't as pungent as when you just put a dollop when plated.
As for recipes, if you like truffle, you'd use this anywhere you would butter.
One of my favorite ways to use it is to chop up some fresh brussel sprouts and pan fry with some butter. I add some truffle salt from the savory spice store in Austin (google...this stuff is AWESOME) and then put a dollop of the truffle butter once plated. I've served this to people who hate brussel sprouts and get no complaints, once I convince them to try. Oh, and my kids eat them this way too!
My only complaint is that they don't include the nutritional info on the package. We had to email them for it and they did send it quickly however.
(Oh, and I have no affiliation with the spice store other than I visited while in Austin this year and will now never be without the stuff!)
Mine arrived within a couple of days of shipping. They were thawed & warm, but I threw them in the freezer anyway. Had some of the black truffle butter on top of a couple med-rare Wagyu rib eyes---divine!
Look again...unless I am special, and the only one who got it, you should see it there. Try it with a side of truffle butter postid="5234030" user="nealkb"]Maybe the plus offering tomorrow?[/quote]

Thursday marked the second time in about 39 years that Mike Clark had been at the spot where his father was gunned down.
The first time Clark drove by 564 E. Third Ave. was by accident. But Thursday's visit was on purpose, to dedicate a plaque in memory of his father, Percy Clark, a Salt Lake City police detective who was gunned down in the line of duty on Jan. 11, 1973.
"To me, it's not a happy place to be," said Clark, a Salt Lake City resident and the oldest of Percy Clark's seven children. "This probably puts final closure on the whole thing. I think it's a great tribute."
Dozens of people including Percy Clark's wife, his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and officers who were with him the night he died gathered at the spot, now home to the Avenues Bistro on Third, to unveil the plaque bearing his image.
"The important thing is not the fact that Percy died on this spot … but that his legacy continues on," said Police Chief Chris Burbank. "[The people here] have never forgotten the legacy of Percy Clark."
Clark's plaque was the fifth that has been dedicated so far. Other fallen Salt Lake police officers who have been honored with plaques: Brigham H. Honey and William N. Huntsman, Marshal Andrew H. Burt, Thomas F. Griffiths and Owen T. Farley
Mike Clark said his father was a great man.
"He loved his job, no doubt," he said. "He worked hard at it."
The day Percy Clark was shot, police received a tip that the pharmacy at the Third Avenue address was going to be robbed, so Clark, then 42, and several other officers set up surveillance and waited.
Clark was positioned just across the street.
When he saw the two robbers enter the store just before 9 p.m., Clark crossed the street and took cover behind a large mailbox about 15 feet from the front door.
When the men emerged, Clark stood up and told them they were under arrest.
Michael E. Mahoney, 21, a known drug addict, spun around and fired one shot at Clark, striking him in the head. Clark was pronounced dead a short time later.
Mahoney and his accomplice, Brian R. Johnson, 17, fled. Police said Mahoney turned around to fire again. He died in a hail of police gunfire.
Johnson immediately surrendered, and police recovered a pillowcase containing stolen drugs and $50.36 in cash.
Johnson was certified as an adult and pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to 10 years to life.
Ann James, then 19, who helped plan the robbery, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor conspiracy and was sentenced to probation.
Just before his death in September, prominent civil rights attorney Brian Barnard, 67, agreed to sponsor the plaque. Barnard died before the plaque's unveiling, and a friend who spoke on his behalf said he was sorry Barnard couldn't be there to see it.

After Desoto, TX I flew out to AZ to ride the SpeedWorld track where the SX ABA race will be held next weekend. Not being on the big hill in awhile I thought i'd start practice early. Rode the SX hill twice now and feeling pretty good on it. Only thing is we haven't been able to do gates on the hill. Just a bunch of sprinting down. Been staying at Bubba's house for a couple days and got to ride his yard. Good to see you can have trails even with small yard. Here's a little teaser edit to check out.

What War? Progressives Fight On Behalf Of Mothers
Research ››› ››› CHELSEA RUDMAN
Progressive legislators have consistently supported policies that benefit mothers and pregnant women, from passing the Affordable Care Act to supporting family leave legislation and funding for Planned Parenthood. Yet in spite of this record, right-wing media are leveling baseless accusations that progressives have launched a "war on moms."

Health Care Law Funds Home Visits For Expecting Families. From a CNN report on "lesser known effects" of the Affordable Care Act:
9. Home visits to expecting families
The law also includes funding support for early childhood home visitation for people expecting children and families who have young children. Professionals come to the home to provide information and support. The aim is to reduce child abuse and neglect, promote the health of mothers and their children and prioritize high-risk populations. Research supports such positive outcomes. The health care law provides $1.5 billion for related state-based initiatives over five years.
Effective date: Began in 2010 with $100 million for fiscal year. [CNN.com, updated 3/26/12, emphasis original]
Democrats Supported Affordable Care Act; Republicans Unanimously Opposed It. The Affordable Care Act passed in the Senate with 60 Democratic votes. No Republicans supported the bill. In the House, the bill passed 219-212, with every Republican voting against it. [Senate.gov, accessed 4/13/12; Clerk.house.gov, accessed 4/13/12]
Planned Parenthood Provided Pregnancy Tests And Prenatal Services To Over 1 Million Women In 2010. According to a Planned Parenthood fact sheet, in 2010, the organization provided pregnancy tests to 1,113,460 women and prenatal services to 31,098. [PlannedParenthood.org, accessed 4/13/12]
February 2011: Democrats Overwhelmingly Opposed Defunding Planned Parenthood. In February 2011, the House approved an amendment proposed by Rep. Mike Pence (R-IN) that would have "cut off funding to Planned Parenthood," as Politico noted at the time. The vote was 240-185, with 230 Republicans and 10 Democrats voting to defund Planned Parenthood and 178 Democrats and 7 Republicans voting against the measure. [Politico, 2/18/11; Clerk.house.gov, accessed 4/13/12]
April 2011: Senate Democrats Rejected House Attempt To Defund Planned Parenthood. In April 2011, Senate Democrats rejected an attempt to defund Planned Parenthood. The vote was 42-58; every Democrat voted against the measure, while 42 Republicans voted in favor of it. [The Washington Post, 4/14/2011;Senate.gov, accessed 4/13/12]
In 1993, President Clinton Signed Family Medical Leave Act, Which "Guarantee[d] Workers Up To 12 Weeks Of Unpaid Leave For Medical Emergencies." In February 1993, President Clinton signed into law the Family Medical Leave Act, which "require[d] employers to give workers up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave to deal with birth, adoption or a serious illness affecting themselves or members of their immediate families." From The New York Times:
Congress gave President Clinton his first legislative victory tonight, passing the family-leave bill to guarantee workers up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for medical emergencies.
The Senate passed the bill 71 to 27, and the House followed on a 247 to 152 vote, just minutes before midnight.
Mr. Clinton plans to sign the bill on Friday morning to make the political point that domestic legislation, stalemated during the Bush Administration, would now pour forth because Democrats control both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.
The House, which passed a similar bill late Wednesday night, had to take a second vote because the Senate version included a statement about homosexuals in the military.
The family-leave bill was vetoed twice by President George Bush, who said it would impose unnecessary costs on businesses. It would require employers to give workers up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave to deal with birth, adoption or a serious illness affecting themselves or members of their immediate families. Employers would have to maintain health insurance coverage. [The New York Times, 2/5/93]
Majority Of Congressional Democrats Backed Family Medical Leave Act. In the Senate, the vote for the bill was 71-27; all Democratic senators but two voted in favor of it. In the House, the vote on the amended version of the bill, which included the Senate's amendment relating to gays in the military, was 247-152. There were 210 Democrats and 36 Republicans voting in favor of the bill, while 123 Republicans and 29 Democrats voted against it. [Senate.gov, accessed 4/13/12; Clerk.house.gov, accessed 4/13/12]
In 2002, California Becomes "First State To Enact A Comprehensive Paid Family Leave Program." On September 23, 2002, then-Gov. Gray Davis (D-CA) signed a paid family leave bill that made California the first state to enact such a law. From the Los Angeles Times:
Gov. Gray Davis has decided to sign legislation allowing most California workers to take paid leave after the birth or adoption of a child or to care for sick family members, administration officials said Sunday.
Davis will sign the measure today at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, officials said, capping one of the most closely watched issues of the legislative session and making California the first state to enact a comprehensive paid family leave program. The bill is seen by supporters as a model for the nation.
Under the measure, which was written by Sen. Sheila Kuehl (D-Santa Monica), most workers will be paid about 55% of their salary for six weeks of leave for a new child or sick relative. The program will expand the state fund providing insurance for disabled workers but will be funded entirely by employee payroll deductions, averaging about $26 a year. About 13 million of California's 16 million workers would be eligible.
Labor unions and women's groups across the country hailed the Democratic governor's decision to make California the first state to enact a comprehensive paid family leave program. [Los Angeles Times, 9/23/02]
All But One Democrat In California Legislature Backed Paid Family Leave Act. The bill, written by Sen. Shelia Kuehl (D-Santa Monica), passed in the California Senate 21-11, with all aye votes coming from Democrats and all no votes coming from Republicans. In the California Assembly, the bill passed 46-31, with 46 Democrats voting for the bill and 1 voting against and 30 Republicans voting against. [Leginfo.ca.gov, accessed 4/13/12, accessed 4/13/12]
Democratic Legislators Introduce Breastfeeding Promotion Act of 2011. On August 1, 2011, Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) introduced the Breastfeeding Promotion Act of 2011. According to the U.S. Breastfeeding Committee, the bill:
1. Amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to protect breastfeeding women from being fired or discriminated against in the workplace.
2. Protects breastfeeding mothers by ensuring that executive, administrative, and professional employees, including elementary and secondary school teachers (in addition to non-exempt employees covered by the previous amendment), have break time and a private place to pump in the workplace. [USBreastFeeding.org, accessed 4/13/12]
Co-Sponsors Of Breastfeeding Bills Were All Democrats Or Legislators Who Caucus With Democrats. In the Senate, Merkley's bill had four co-sponsors, three of whom are Democrats and one of whom was Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is an independent who caucuses with the Democrats. In the House, Maloney's bill had 11 co-sponsors, all of whom are Democrats. [GovTrackUS.us, accessed 4/13/12, accessed 4/13/12]
In Spite Of This, Right-Wing Media Accuse Progressives Of "Launch[ing]" A "War On Moms"
On The Five, Fox's Gutfeld Says, "Now We Have A War On Moms." On the April 12 edition of Fox News' The Five, co-host Dana Perino responded to Rosen's comments and said, in part, "But I'm glad -- if the war -- if the phony war on women that they started is over, great. Then we won." Co-host Greg Gutfeld responded by saying, "Now we have a war on moms. Even better." [Fox News, The Five, 4/12/12]
Wash. Times Editorial: "The Left's War On Moms." From the April 12 editorial in The Washington Times, headlined "The left's war on moms":
Sometimes a rare flash of honesty makes all the difference in politics. Democratic operative Hilary Rosen single-handedly changed the course of the 2012 election with her dig at Ann Romney, wife of presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney. "Guess what, [she] has actually never worked a day in her life," Ms. Rosen said. Mrs. Romney shot back, "I made a choice to stay home and raise five boys. Believe me, it was hard work." In that instant, the political narrative shifted from the phony war on women to the liberal war on moms.
Ms. Rosen reflects the old-school liberal contempt for women who choose to raise families rather than enter the workforce. Her condescension hearkens back at least to the Carter era, but the country has since moved on. Twenty-first-century Americans are comfortable with the idea that there are many paths available to women, many routes to success and personal fulfillment. Some women work full careers, with or without children. Others take time off from their professions to raise children. Some answer the calling of full-time motherhood and devote their energies to their families and communities, engaging in volunteer work and expressing virtues that the country could use more of. Any of these paths is a valid personal choice, but to liberals, the stay-at-home mom is somehow less of a woman. To them, the word "housewife" is synonymous with "loser." [The Washington Times, 4/12/12]
Limbaugh: "The Obama Administration Has Launched Its War On Moms."On the April 12 broadcast of his Premiere Radio Networks show, Rush Limbaugh said of Rosen's comments:
LIMBAUGH: Now we find out that there is genuine hostility for women who do not work, who only stay at home and raise their families. So the Obama administration has just effectively, whether they know it or not, launched a War on Motherhood via Hilary Rosen on CNN last night. Obama and the Democrats are not content to just divide men and women. They want to go deeper and divide working mothers from stay-at-home mothers, and they want to attach the virtue to working mothers and assign no virtue to stay-at-home moms.
LIMBAUGH: So it looks like what we've got here is we've got a war on mothers. The Obama administration has launched its War on Moms.

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. - University of North Carolina golfer Michael McGowan tied for sixth place at the 87th annual New Year's Invitational played at St. Petersburg Country Club. McGowan, a senior from Southern Pines, N.C., fired a 3-under-par in the final round to finish with a 4-under 284 total. After carding a 2-over 74 in the opening round, McGowan played under-par the rest of the way, firing a 2-under 70 and 1-under 71 in the second and third rounds before his 3-under 69 in the final round.
Another Tar Heel, Patrick Barrett, also posted a strong final round firing a 2-under 70 on Sunday. The senior from Pinehurst, N.C., fired earlier rounds of 78-82-74 and tied for 69th place with a 304 total. Toni Hakula, a junior at Texas, won the 72-hole event with a 12-under 276 total.
McGowan carded two top-10 finishes for the Tar Heels last fall. He placed third at the Tar Heel Intercollegiate and tied for eighth at the Carpet Capital Collegiate. Patrick also carded two top-10 finishes. He was the runner-up at the Tar Heel Intercollegiate, competing as an individual, and tied for fourth place at the Wolfpack Intercollegiate.
Carolina captured the team title at the Wolfpack Intercollegiate and was the runner-up at the Tar Heel Intercollegiate and the Rod Myers Invitational. The Tar Heels began their spring season Feb. 17-19 at the Puerto Rico Classic in Rio Grande, P.R.

A new film, "Jut A Game," depicts the heroic effort of South African leaders held in the Robben Island prison to fight back against apartheid through means of playing football(European version). Nelson Mandela, and other detainees, formed the Makana Football Association inside the island fortress that was officially recognized by international football bodies as a legitimate league. Most of the players were from the African National Congress whose leaders were supposed terrorists. According to Chuck Korr, an American sports historian, "It's amazing. They followed every rule in the book. They were recreating the mundaneness of the outside world. I think partly to comfort themselves." At first the men played covertly in their cells using balls made of paper, cardboard and rags. World pressure finally persuaded prison authorities to allow regular games to proceed. Football, according to Korr, "was about dignity and survival."
Perhaps, this story has implications for Guantanamo prisoners who are unable to assert their human dignity but are treated as animals. What might happen to their humanity and their dignity if treated with respect as humans? Would it enable them to reflect and consider if violence is the only avenue to success? Mandela, and many of his associates, did use violence, but being in prison enabled them to rethink that approach and discover new ways of fighting for freedom.

What size shed. Is it feasible to move the whole shed?
I'll have to see what the comb layout looks like, but maybe I could just cut out the floor board to fit over the TBH and drop it on top!? Then deal with it in the spring. Thanks for the ideas.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
one of the shops I deliver to.. the owner has a mac box that is about as long if not longer than my fiero.. haven't dared ask what that ran..
When I have to spend the first 15 minutes of any project looking for my tools it instantly puts me in a bad mood!!!!!
My sons now understand this and always put the tools back where they found them but it took years before I could make them realize how much easier it is to work organized.
Have everything in a shop organized to me is very important and makes the next job go so much faster.
Thanks for posting and showing others how to do it the right way.

How is it holding up?
My tools have only been shadowed for just over a year, and so far, it looks like I just shadowed it yesterday. I am somewhat consciencious about wiping my tools down, but when I do put them in greasy, a little isopropyl alcohol seems to take the grease right off the surface. If you get it down in the bubbles it is probably there for good, but even so, I don't care too much about that. I have only spilled skydrol a few times in that year (got a lapful once, if you know what I mean), so I can't really say much about that. I will try to dip a chunk in some at work today and let you know how it goes. Skydrol is probably the strongest chemical I've been around. It will burn the crud out of your skin. It is an awesome paint stripper.
it's been a few years hows the foam holding up to the grease/solvent/etc that gets on tools.. even when you wipe them down there is still some junk on them..
is it holding up...
Cool, looks good.

Wow, lots of thought put in here!
Here is how I did mine
Aviation Maintenance
|moving to "Tools"......finally
I have both in the shop where I work. I have one guy with TWO huge boxes! They are full of nuts and bolts, and crap, worn out air tools he never uses, hammers without handles, handles without hammers, they are FULL. He then has a cart with two drawers that he works out of going to one of his boxes about 1% of the time!!!
There is another guy who again, works out of a cart and has a HUGE (six foot wide maybe) SnapOn box (about 8-10 thousand dollars) that is 25% full! NO KIDDING!
I have a $2500 box ( I assume, at todays dollars, I paid $1700 15 year ago) with no cart and I roll it where I am working. I probably still only use about 25% of that box 75% of the time with the other 75% being used 25%.
And I have some damn nice tools, I have the best spot weld drill (almost $500) the best die grinders at up to $250, $200 angle grinders Snap On wrenches (along side of some gear wrenches) I don't scrimp on tool cost.
I don't know, there seems to be a lot of waste when it comes to tools in most boxes.
|31 hemi dodge
OK- I admit, years ago I DID buy the foam kit from SnapOn. Forgot about this, and have been rearranging my main box ( have seperate little boxes for special tools now) I find it easier that if I need it once, I'll need it again-usually someone else needs it . Will have to find some more foam- won't be stupid this time.
Can you really have too many tools ?
Well, it's the new year again!
i have passed this on
to my son,he has all my tools,taken over the years, hehehehehe
im not kiddin !
Thanks for posting this Brian. I like "101" posts. Makes me not feel like an idiot for my OCD tool box organization habits. I typically redo my box(s) a couple times a year each time removing things I never use and placing these items in my "never use" box in the corner and then give stuff away out of this box when I realize I never touch it... I have also realized that I have a compulsive habit of purchasing a tool for a one time use when I should have just borrowed it. It took me a long time to realize this, I now hold off buying until I have borrowed a certain tool a few times.
Last time I went through my boxes I came up with two "extra" drawers of which I now feel I need to fill up... Before this I was shopping for a new cart because I thought I was totally out of space.
Brian, once again you've outdone yourself. Very informative posting that should be moved to the garage area, and also made into an article for the Wiki. Very nice!
In a while, Chet.
New Years Resolution, orgianize your tools.
Moderator, you can move this to the tool forum if you want but I figure this isn't something you "want" to do so if you aren't thinking of tools, you are never going to see it there.
Tool box organization
By Brian Martin
Well, today is Jan 2nd and of course we are getting a head start on all our New Years resolutions right? One of mine was to get my tool box back in order. It has gotten a little jumbled and needed a freshen up.
A number of years ago found myself rolling my tool box into new job at a shop. I had a relatively small tool box for a bodyman being I had a shop to store all my tools, the box was just for my simple hand tools. Well now all my tools I used everyday as a body tech had to be kept in my box, some changes were in order. First, I had to take everything out of the box that I didnt need. Then I had to move all the tools into the box that were previously in some cabinet on the wall, on or in a bench or another box that I had in the shop. Some serious condensing was in order.
I have a MAC MB1100 bottom box with nothing on top. I got this box after seeing my hero in the bodyman world at one of my first jobs and how he had set up his box. I had never seen a guy work without a top box. Emory Robinson had made a cart for a large bottom box with larger wheels. It had a locking side box on one side, and then a shelved rack he had made (nothing was available at the time) for his air sanders and blocks. The entire top of the box was clear and a bench to work off of. He rolled it around next to the jobs he was working on, he was way ahead of his time, a brilliant man in every sense of the word. Now mind you, this was about 5 or 10 years after working with him but that box of his had stuck in my head.
Anyway, it is a small box, just perfect for rolling over to the job instead of leaving it up against the wall across the shop! But its space is limited and I had to do something, I had to make big changes if I was going to work out of it.
I would be working on late model collisions so all the SAE tools were removed, there hasnt been an SAE bolt on a car since the early 80s so no need for them taking up room in the box.
For years I had my box set up the same way mechanics and bodymen had for decades. All the tools were divided into drawers, ratchets in one place, wrenches in another, air tools in another, screw drivers in another. etc. Heck, boxes were made this way, a top box would have 10-15 tiny drawers for all these little collections. Being my memory isnt so good I cant take credit for this revelation I had, I may have seen it in some book or something I dont remember. But having these tools that are used together all in separate drawers made less and less sense to me. Why in the heck would you want your ratchet in one drawer, the extensions in another and the sockets in yet another? You certainly werent going to grab a ratchet and then go to work with it, you needed the sockets every single time you used it, why have them in separate drawers? How about the air tools, most mechanics still will keep their air ratchet in a big drawer in the bottom of the box with all their other air tools. They will bend over and open this big heavy drawer, then get the socket to put on that air ratchet out of the top of the box! It makes no sense!
What I did was put all the tools I used most in the top drawer, the second most used in the second drawer and so on. I was a little cramped in that some of the more used tools wouldnt fit in the shallow upper drawers, but I did the best I could and just put them as high as possible.
I also put all the tools used together in the same drawer. No more sockets in one and ratchets in another.
I put the tools that I thought would be used most in the upper drawer, a combination of screw drivers, Torx, 3/8 and ¼ socket sets with the respective air ratchets and air impact with them. This is what I use most doing late model collision repair, what a guy doing brakes and suspension would a totally different top drawer. But it is amazing, these tools are probably used 50 to 75% of the time in my day to day work.
The second drawer had the wrench sets, and specialty tools like door panel clip tools, long needle nose, channel locks, wire cutters that sort of stuff. Then the next drawer are the hammers and dollies. The next, my ½ sockets, ratchets , extensions etc. along with rulers, files, etc.
I put rivet in dividers and got some trays, and tried a number of different ways to hold the wrenches finally settling on a cut to length one that Snap On sells. All these were temporarily mounted until I knew exactly where they would work the best.
I worked out of the box for a number of weeks moving tools from one drawer to the other, fine tuning my most used from my second most used, and so on. When I was happy with the lay out I went about making holders for them to keep them in place. I went on the Snap On truck and asked for something to fill the bill. The guy showed me in the catalog a foam kit where you cut out the shapes of the tools in the foam. AWESOME, that is exactly what I was looking for. I didnt know it, but that was exactly what I was after. I asked how much, ahhhhhh how about $350! No kidding, four pieces of foam was $350! Well, I went looking at Sears to see if they had something, how about $15.00! Now, this item is now $19.99 but it is still a deal. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...65417&sLevel=0
I did a few drawers using this kit and I have to say, it is one of the best tools I ever put in that box! You can see immediately when a tool is missing, I havent lost but a couple in the years I have been had it in my box. You can find things RIGHT NOW, there is no wasted time looking for something. I can literally be sitting on the floor doing something and reach my hand up into the top drawer and without even looking grab the tool I need!
Over time new tools, better tools for the job come along so the drawer foam has to be redone. I had been working for way to long with one of my drawers all messed up and the foam not even being used for half the tools in there. So today I broke down and redid the foam. It took me all of about a half hour, done deal.
The nearby Sears store didnt have the foam in stock anymore. I decided to check the local foam supply house and found something very similar for pennies and got me some. The original kit came with a nice razor knife and a piece of white contact paper to draw your shapes out on to then transfer to the foam. I asked the wife and she had a roll of shelf liner that worked perfect. I used my Exacto knife being my Craftsmen one had lost its tip a little.
Start by cutting out your contact paper the exact size at the section of drawer you are putting it in. A whole roll of this stuff is only $4.00
Next arrange the tools on the contact paper. This can take a while. I actually decided to leave a few off that I had there just to clean it up a little. After thinking about it, I didnt use them much so they will go in another drawer. On arranging the tools, they can get pretty close without a problem, amazingly close. If you did it like they show on the Sears web site you could only get about half as many as I did. I put them backwards and forward sideways and intertwined. They should be as comfortable to grab as possible and do set them up that way, but to get as many as I needed on the foam I had to put some backwards. But those are the least used of the bunch, always keep that in mind.
To draw the lines around them, just remove them as you go, or remove one and then set it back down when you get its neighbors outline done.
The foam I bought was very similar to the Sears stuff. It is about a half inch thick, and pretty dense. It is a little more open celled than the Sears stuff but made of stiffer material so it is a trade off. I also got some 1 thick stuff for another drawer, Ill give that a try.
Stick the contact paper on the foam and press it down firmly.
A metal ruler and sharp Exacto knife make a nice clean cut thru the foam.
Cut along the lines of your shapes by sticking the knife all the way thru until you feel the surface under the foam. Slide the blade thru the foam around the pattern with the tip of the knife running on the surface below to fully cut it. Press out the piece and you have began.
On the smaller tools, you can slice the piece you cut out and stick half of it (or how ever much you choose) back in the hole so the tool rests nicely.
A test fit to find out if you are on the right track, and move on to the rest.
The long razor knife that came with my Craftsman kit is awesome for cutting the pieces in half on the larger tools like the channel locks.
You can adjust the patterns a little as you go as well. Here you see where I found that the little pick I was putting here needed to be moved down alittle.
Here it is complete before pulling the contact paper off.
Here it is with the paper pulled off, ready to rock! The holes for the larger handled clip removing tools will be black as well being the bottom of my drawers are lined with that very thin black foam that mechanics used to line their drawers with back in ancient times.
Here it is done as it will look in my box along with the few tools it took to do it. I cant wait to get back to work on Monday to put it in the box. Those three red handled clip tools, they are the BEST hands down of any I have ever used, and I have had every one to ever come out Ill tell you that!
This is a few pictures of my boxes drawers showing the foam in action. You may notice that the middle one on the right is where this foam I did today fits. This picture was taken when I was using my obsolete clip tools. The evolution of tools necessitates the replacement of the foam every once in a while.

Big data is probably the single most important trend in information usage for both business and IT in the past decade. It is changing the way companies make decisions, do business, succeed or fail. And it is causing IT to look beyond traditional technologies, to new tools to process larger data volumes of a variety of types faster than ever before required.
Much of the focus on big data has missed one key point: big or small, it's still data. It must be managed and integrated across the entire enterprise to extract its full value, to ensure its consistent use. Taming big data is the key to gaining that value.
This analyst paper highlights three key aspects:
• The foundation for extracting maximum business value from big data at the source is a technically diverse and deeply integrated platform for all information, both big data and traditional transactions.
• An enterprise-level approach?platform, products and processes' is mandatory to ensure long-term quality and use of big data in concert with existing business data.
• Rapid deployment of projects is needed to take earliest advantage of emerging business opportunities and is achieved by introducing big data capabilities incrementally.

Field Trips
Field Trips (1.5-2.5 hours)
Investigating Your Urban Stream, Pond or Wetland
Grades 1 - college
Apply concepts and new skills gained in the classroom to a field study. Join us at a local stream, pond or wetland to investigate water and the nearby habitat. Field study activities may include: testing water quality, sampling for aquatic macroinvertebrates (water bugs) as biological indicators, exploring wildlife, and identifying native and non-native plants. Activities depend on the season, site features, and curriculum emphasis. Monitoring activities, research, and scientific inquiry goals may be included. A 6:1 student/adult ratio, not including the Clean Rivers Educator, is recommended. Transportation fund assistance may be available upon request.
Our goal is to engage students in natural areas as close to their communities as possible. Talk to an educator about the best location for your field studies.
- Columbia Slough Watershed - Whitaker Ponds, Big Four Corners Natural Area, Columbia Boulevard Wastewater Treatment Plant Natural Area, Kelley Point Park
- Fanno Creek Watershed - Gabriel Park, Woods Creek Park,April Hill Park
- Johnson Creek Watershed - Tideman-Johnson Park, Johnson Creek Park, Brookside Wetlands, Schweitzer Greenspace, Zenger Wetlands, Crystal Springs
- Tryon Creek Watershed -Tryon Creek State Natural Area, Foley-Balmer Greenspace
- Willamette River Watershed -Forest Park, Water Pollution Control Laboratory, Willamette Park, Oaks Bottom, Sellwood Riverfront Park.
Natural Area Restoration Projects
Grades 4- 12 (Usually scheduled in late summer or early fall)
Consider a commitment to help restore a local natural area while also learning about field investigation techniques such as water quality testing, plant identification, wetlands, and wildlife study. Participate in stewardship activities such as invasive plant removal, planting, and maintenance. This is a special option involving partnerships with local agencies and organizations. Opportunities are limited. Plan for multiple field trips.
School Yard Science
Grades 3-12
Use your school's naturescape or stormwater facility as a science laboratory. Learn native plant identification, perform math calculations such as area and percent cover, investigate soils, and more. Activities depend on grade level and site characteristics.
Sustainable Stormwater Tours
Grades 5 - college
Visit bioswales, ecoroofs, stormwater planters, green streets, rain gardens and creative downspout disconnections. Learn how these solutions allow stormwater to soak into the ground to reduce volume, while plants and soil filter pollutants and improve water quality. An educator will work with you to develop an itinerary based on your method of transportation and location.
Storm Drain Curb Marking: A Community Action Project
Grades 3 -adult (dry weather only)
Much of the stormwater in Portland goes directly into streams and rivers carrying oil, dirt, fertilizers, pesticides and other pollutants from our yards and streets. Installing permanent curb markers with the message "Dump No Waste" reminds people that storm drains are for rainwater only. A 4:1 student to adult ratio is required for traffic safety. Curb marker projects may be done independently by checking out equipment or with a Clean Rivers Educator. Dry weather is required before and after installation so the adhesive dries properly. Planning a rain date is helpful. Call 503-823-7185 for more information.
Columbia Boulevard Wastewater Treatment Plant
Grades 6 - college
What happens "after the flush?" Visit the City of Portland's Columbia Boulevard Wastewater Treatment plant to find out where our wastewater goes. The thundering roar of wastewater and knowledgeable guides await you. Call 503-823-2400 to schedule your tour.

"Right now, we are being plagued by mental mistakes," said Canisius head coach Dermot McGrane. "Iona is a very good team and we played a majority of the game pretty well. However, when you make a mistake against a quality opponent, they punish you for it and that's what happened tonight."
Freshman Alex DeCarolis and sophomore Asani Samuels both tallied goals for the Griffs in the loss.
The Gaels struck first in the contest, scoring in the eighth minute of play. Franklin Castellanos stole the ball from a Canisius defender and finished from 12 yards out for the early 1-0 advantage.
DeCarolis knotted the game at one in the 32nd minute with his third tally of the season. After an Iona foul right outside the box, the Griffs took advantage of a quick restart with Iona not set on defense. Senior Gavin Falconer found De Carolis open on the outside and the rookie buried his attempt for the 1-1 score.
Iona reclaimed its advantage shortly before the intermission when Ansger Otto scored in the 37th minute. Otto gained possession of the ball and made several moves to beat Canisius players before scoring from 15 yards out for the 2-1 halftime lead.
Canisius eventually evened the game once again with Samuels' fifth tally of the season. Falconer once again delivered a strong ball on a free kick and after a diving stop by the Iona keeper, Samuels knocked in the rebound to tie the contest in the 72nd minute.
The Gaels, however, took advantage of one final opportunity to earn the victory. Castellanos sent a ball through the Canisius defense and to Alvaro Torrecilla, who finished his chance with just 2:41 remaining in regulation for the 3-2 win.
Canisius finished the contest by outshooting the Gaels on the night, 21-12, in addition to a 9-2 advantage in corner kicks.
The Griffs wrap up play at home on Sunday afternoon, hosting Fairfield at the Demske Sports Complex. Game time on Senior Day is set for 1 p.m.
Game Notes: De Carolis' three goals on the season are the most by a Canisius freshman since Alan McGreal netted six during the 2006 campaign ... Iona has won the last five games overall against Canisius and the last eight meetings in regular-season play (Canisius earned a win over the Gaels during the 2007 MAAC Tournament) ... With his two assists on the night, Falconer now has 24 points this season, tied for the ninth-most in the program's history.
