Gov. Jerry Brown has been among the most iconic Democrats in one of the nation's most Democratic states over the course of four decades, but his State of the State speech suggested that some of his plans may actually be in line with Republican priorities.
"It was nice to see the governor channel his inner Republican," said Bob Huff, the state Senate's top Republican.
Huff, R-Walnut, said in a telephone interview that those remarks echo those of Assembly Republican leader Connie Conway.
The upshot is that Brown and the Legislature's GOP minority certainly do not see eye to eye on all issues affecting the state, but there appears to be more than just a little opportunity for the governor and Republican leaders find a measure of agreement over the coming year.
Huff said Brown's speech could be heard as a call for smaller government, a Legislature that passes fewer bills, business-friendly reforms to California's key environmental law and a rainy day fund.Whether those ideas can become policy, he said, is another matter.
"The rhetoric's great. Where's the reality," he asked.
When it comes to whether Brown's words will find themselves written into law, the question may not be so much whether the governor can reach a compromise with Republicans as much as whether he can make a deal with members of his own party.
"I've always figured I could work OK with Governor Brown. His problem is moving his own constituency," Huff said.
For example, Brown called for a streamlining of the California Environmental Quality Act. Republicans and business groups have long called for changes to the law, which allows environmental groups to file lawsuits that can stop or delay construction.
State Sen. Michael Rubio, D-Shafter, has also pushed for reforms to CEQA, but Huff predicted that Brown will have to significantly leverage his powers as governor to convince Democrats to change the environmental law.
"If he lends his strong leadership to CEQA reform, we may be able to get something," Huff said.
Despite the possibility for agreement among Brown and Republicans on some major issues, there are also important subjects on which the governor and GOP disagree.
Among them, Brown's support for high-speed rail and the continued implementation of A.B. 32, which requires some industries to buy carbon credits in order to maintain production.
"We in California appear to be shouldering the burden for the entire world when we have to compete with other states," Huff said.

SAN FRANCISCO -- The iPhone is about to get a lot smarter when it comes to GPS, and more useful for route personnel. Among the new products previewed at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference, held in June here, was Apple Maps. This full-featured software package is intended to give both Android smartphones and standalone GPS units a run for their money.
Apple Maps offers turn-by-turn spoken directions, interactive 3D views and an novel flyover feature that provides an aerial view of a selected location. The software also provides real-time, crowd-sourced traffic information, and rerouting if a turn is missed or if a driver is headed into a traffic jam. The app integrates with Siri, a natural language user interface that acts as the iPhone's personal assistant.
The preview caused a stir at the conference. Up until now, Apple has been dependent on a major competitor, Google, for its GPS functions.
The release date of Apple Maps is mid-July.

Physical Evidence — When physical evidence is collected from a crime scene, it is taken to the property or evidence room of the law enforcement agency that has jurisdiction over the crime. There, the evidence is catalogued and stored, pending further decisions about the case. At the request of a law enforcement investigating officer or a prosecutor, evidence from a crime may be sent to the crime laboratory for analysis.
Eyewitness Evidence — Police often ask eyewitnesses to identify a suspect from a lineup or an array of photos. A lineup or photo array involves placing a suspect or a photo of a suspect among people who are not suspected of committing the crime (fillers) and asking the eyewitness to identify the perpetrator.

|California's Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch explode into 50 acres of spring color, visible from Highway 1.
Photos & feature by Lisa Meyers McClintick
Rows of sherbet-orange blossoms march to the right, sloping toward a hillside of bubblegum pink, ruby red and sunny yellow.
|Giant ranunculus blooms offer a colorful feast for winter-weary eyes.
Immersed in 50 acres of flowers, I could be Dorothy on the way to the Emerald City, minus the sleepy effect of poppies. Instead of shimmering green buildings on the horizon, I see the glimmer of ocean beyond strip malls and the Pacific Coast Highway to the west and purple shadows of mountains to the northeast.
The Flower Fields of Carlsbad, Calif., have drawn spring visitors to northern San Diego County for decades. The giant Tecolote ranunculus blooms look like the love child of poppies and peonies: vibrant color, delicate stems and full-bodied blooms dense with silky petals.
They blaze brightly on the hills above the coastal highway, inspiring detours for more than 60 years every March through mid-May.
"There's something about being surrounded by all this color that's just magical," says Lisa Merriam McClure, a former Minnesotan and now a Californian who lives up the coast in San Clemente.
For me, this March vacation during 2011's slog-it-out winter is inspired not so much by the need for warmth as the need to nourish eyes hungry for more than grays and whites. We've dedicated a long weekend to a 90-mile road trip that starts with the Flower Fields on this sunny coastline, climbs through cool mountains and drops into the desert—each place erupting with its own palette of spring color.
|One of life's miracl
Renewing a friendship
Lucky for us, we're celebrating a rebirth and renewal that goes deeper than the seasons. McClure and I haven't seen each other for 20-plus years, yet we slip back into a steadfast friendship built on sleepovers, family vacations, summer camp and the misadventures of junior high. We laugh how alphabetical locker assignments originally brought us together, and somehow carried into adulthood. Meyers and Merriam each married and became McClure and McClintick. It baffles us, too.
Just as joyous as this long-overdue reunion is traveling with Lisa's three-month-old daughter, Kate. It's a magical age: ears as translucent and delicate as newly emerged leaves, steady gazes infused with wonder, tiny hands that make your heart skip.
|Lisa, Kate and Lisa
Kate's a miracle, too, arriving as Lisa turned 42 and had given up hope for a baby.
We hold out my camera and try snapping a self-portrait with flowers unfurling behind us. Kate stares at the lens as if she knows how momentous this is.
Beach cities to mountain town
The ocean calls to us in every shade of sun-infused blue. That's not to say it's warm. Zipped into a wet suit, the water numbs my bare feet and squeezes out a few colorful gasps of shock. Lisa married an enthusiastic surfer, and I feel compelled to try my luck on a board.
I apparently did great for a first time out, making it to a standing position on one of my first attempts. But surfing mostly feels like those rough stretches of life. Wait, wait, wait for it. Miss your timing. Take a clumsy fall. Haul yourself back up. Repeat, repeat, repeat.
|Hiking down to the surf beach near San Clemente
"People think surfers are so mellow," Lisa says, but most are high energy until waves hammer them into bone-weary submission.
After our dreamy stroll through flower fields and along beaches, it seems wrong to turn our backs on the ocean. But we're in the mood to explore, to see someplace new and leave busy coastal cities behind. We ditch a traffic jam and pick our way east through suburbs until they're gone.
We climb, hugging mountain curves with motorcyclists, bicyclists and convertibles, likewise soaking up scenery. The valley drops below us. Roadsides blur with the hazy lavender of wild lilacs and smatterings of orange poppies.
|The drive from Carlsbad to the mountains near Julian.
It's only 60 miles from the coast, but Julian, pop. 3,000, feels like another world. Apple orchards with clouds of white blossoms and vineyards flank this historic mining town tucked into piney mountains. Daffodils dot wooded roads, and homey whiffs of apple pie, dumplings and pastries waft into the narrow Old-West downtown. A horse and buggy clip-clops past, and a giggling group of girls tries to sell us a cat.
Fog and drizzle roll in as darkness falls and we find our way to a cabin at Pine Hills Lodge, a log resort built 100 years ago. We bundle Kate into a dresser drawer with blankets as our makeshift cradle. Then we fire up the heat, climb into bed, and reminisce about sleepovers in Prior Lake and pay homage to Lisa's mom, who died a year before Kate was born.
|Pine Hills Lodge
I can't imagine becoming a first-time parent without my mom in the wings. I try to fill a little of the huge gap left by Lisa's mom. I delight in rocking Kate to sleep and keep Lisa company during middle-of-the-night nursing or fussing.
The next morning, we fill up on quiche at Julian's Candied Apple Pastry Company. We've had our requisite pie and choose one of their chocolate bomb cakes to go. It alone could inspire a return trip. The cake becomes roadside lunch—along with an honor system bag of grapefruit—bought 30 miles to the east in the Anza-Borrego Desert. Like the contrast between beach and mountains, this section of Southern California's Colorado Desert also feels like its own world.
|Julian, Calif., can grow daffodils & apples.
Desert blooms dazzle
Yawning, scrubby flatness leading to Borrego Springs has that vacant "Are we lost?" feeling. But the sky's blue, the sun is warming our arms, and we discover we're in good company as we pull into a busy parking lot at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. The largest of California's state parks and a bit off the beaten path, it's a less-crowded option to Palm Springs to the north.
It's been a dry year, and most of the park is brown. But near the visitor center, which is dug into the earth, irrigated areas coax succulent blooms from cacti. Hummingbirds dart in and out of tubular orange blooms on a blue elf aloe. We stroll by and admire hot pink flowers on beaver tail cactus, translucent yellow on a prickly pear, and a fiery orange on claret cup cactus.
|Anza-Borrego Desert blooms
We reluctantly pull away from the soothing landscape of desert and mountains and head for downtown San Diego. It's another scenic route, meandering through the Cuyamaca Recreation and State Park district our last night together. We watch the sun turn the harbor pink then share a milestone together: feeding Kate her first serving of rice cereal.
We click through our photos, smiling again at baby faces, beach shots and brilliant blossoms. Best of all is discovering a friendship can be like spring flowers after a long winter. They both burst into bloom just when you need something to celebrate.

13. Philadelphia Eagles - Chance Warmack - OG - Alabama
We won't draft another offensive guard in the first round;
Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee
Jake Matthews, Texas A&M
, or
Jonathan Banks, CB, Mississippi State
12. Philadelphia Eagles - Brennan Williams - OT - North Carolina
I like Brennan Williams a lot, if we pass on Matthews in the first, this could be a fantastic selection.
13. Philadelphia Eagles - Aaron Dobson - WR - Marshall
We need a safety more then a wide receiver right now;
Shawn Williams, S, Georgia
would be a great pick here.

Tennessee Titans
1 DT Star Lotulelei
Love it. There's no other player I'd rather have in this draft. He will instantly come in and make the Titans D better but then again it can't get any worse
2 OG Jonathan Cooper
I like it but I still think we need to go defense again. We need a safety and Matt Elam would bring fire to our D.
3 DE Cornellius Carradine
Great pick. Add's much needed depth.

The fourth pick is simply too valuable to take the number 3 QB this year. I'm not denying Buffalo needs a new QB, and would even consider trading up for one of the top two if the price was right. Nor am I against Tyler Wilson as the first pick, but I would trade down and hope to get him later in the first.
If they can't make a trade work in either direction, I would make a better value pick and take the best QB left on the board at the start of round 2. There are enough intriguing QB prospects that even if we miss out on Wilson, at least one of them is all but sure to be around for the third pick in round 2.

Terrible Seattle mock. No WR? Who are we supposed to throw to? Terrance Williams, Ricky Wagner and Datone Jones would be much better selections. Williams gives us the #1 receiver we so desperately need, Wagner immediately takes over at RT and Jones gives us a pass rushing 5 technique to take over for Red Bryant, who is useless against the pass. Yes, we need an OLB too, but Shayne Skov is a pure ILB. We don't need that we just drafted Wagner.

The fourth pick is simply too valuable to take the number 3 QB this year. I'm not denying Buffalo needs a new QB, and would even consider trading up for one of the top two if the price was right. Nor am I against Tyler Wilson as the first pick, but I would trade down and hope to get him later in the first.
If they can't make a trade work in either direction, I would make a better value pick and take the best QB left on the board at the start of round 2. There are enough intriguing QB prospects that even if we miss out on Wilson, at least one of them is all but sure to be around for the third pick in round 2.
I don't get your logic .. "The fourth pick us simply too valuable to take the number 3 QB this year." Based on team need QB/OLB/WR/OG/S what prospect as of right now is more worthy? Also if u were to trade up essentially, u feel Geno/Barkley are our 2013 2nd, 2014 1st and 2014 2nd better than Wilson
As for mock, I'd much rather WR Da'Rick Rogers in 3rd for Bills and Tyrann Matheiu is a round or 2 to high IMO

Can Te'o play SAM? I believe Burfict will be the MLB next season.
I like the rest, although I think we need a corner a little more than a SSDE in 3.

Don't see Dallas using a first on a G - we've taken 1 OLman in the last 30 years in the first and it was a franchise LT.
Like Jeffcoat pick though

Meh, I don't think Terrance Williams is an upgrade on what you have. Skov isn't a pure ILB - he played Will at Stanford before they switched to 3-4 and is an excellent edge-rusher.

One Offensive lineman is enough, like Dobson. Would prefer a Safety in the Second or a Dline.

Washington : Government Printing Office
Page 1400
Whereas, under authority contained in the Acts of Congress approved May 29, 1908 (35 Stat. 460), and February 14, 1913 (37 Stat. 675), all non-mineral, unallotted, and unreserved lands within the Standing Rock Indian Reservation in the States of North and South Dakota, were opened to settlement and entry, to be disposed of under the general provisions of the homestead laws of the United States and the said acts of Congress, by presidential proclamations of August 19, 1909 (36 Stat. 2500) and March 18, 1915 (39 Stat. 1721), respectively, and
Whereas, there are now remaining undisposed of within the Standing Rock Indian Reservation a number of tracts of said lands which, while of little value for
Page 1401
the original purpose of settlement and entry, upon thorough investigation have been found to be valuable to the Indians of said reservation, and
Whereas, by relinquishment and cancellation of homestead entries a small additional area of similar lands may be included within the class of undisposed of surplus lands, and,
Whereas, the Tribal Council, the Superintendent of the Standing Rock Agency, and the Commissioner of Indian Affairs have recommended restoration to tribal ownership of all such undisposed of lands in the said reservation,
Now, therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of the Interior by Sections 3 and 7 of the Act of June 18, 1934 (48 Stat. 984), I hereby find that restoration to tribal ownership of all lands which are now, or may hereafter be, classified as undisposed of surplus opened lands of the Standing Rock Reservation, North and South Dakota, will be in the public interest, and the said lands are hereby restored to tribal ownership for the use and benefit of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe of Indians, and are added to and made a part of the existing reservation, subject to any valid existing rights.

Washington • President Obama sought to recruit the nation's governors Monday in his sequestration battle with Congress, telling them that $85 billion in automatic budget cuts will cripple economic progress in their states.
Set to start Friday, the sequestration cuts will lead to fewer teachers, reduced medical care, and idle defense workers in all 50 states, Obama told members of the National Governors Association at the White House.
"The longer these cuts are in place, the bigger the impact will become," Obama said.
The president urged the state executives particularly the Republicans to lobby members of Congress to avoid the sequestration with a new deal to help reduce the national debt of more than $16 trillion.
Not all Republicans were convinced, saying Obama could offset the $85 billion in cuts by cutting less than 3 percent of the federal budget. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, a potential 2016 Republican presidential candidate, said it's time for Obama to "stop scaring people" and instead "show leadership."
Obama wants a debt reduction deal that includes both budget cuts and higher taxes on the wealthy, in the form or closing loopholes and deductions.
Republicans oppose any tax increase, saying Obama got higher tax rates on the wealthy as part of last month's "fiscal cliff" deal a view shared by some of the GOP governors who met with the president at the White House.
Republicans such as Jindal and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said tax hikes could slow the economy just as much as some arbitrary tax cuts. They pointed out that the fiscal agreement ended a 2 percentage point cut in the payroll tax, increasing that levy for wage-earning Americans.
"This administration has an insatiable appetite for new revenues," Jindal said.
Vice President Biden also addressed the National Governors Association's gathering, appealing to what he described as their bipartisan spirit and willingness to get things done. Biden, a senator for 36 years before becoming vice president, attributed the latest budget standoff in Washington to an "intense partisanship, that the likes of which, in my career, I've only seen the last couple of years."
Obama's remarks to the governors were part of an ongoing effort to warn Congress about the impact of the sequestration briefings.
At a White House news briefing, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said budget cuts would weaken border security, slow responses to emergencies, delay container inspections at ports, and lengthen lines at airport security screenings and customs checks.
"The lines over the next few weeks are going to start to lengthen," Napolitano said.
Beyond the sequester, Obama told the governors he wants to be their "partner" on two major legislative items, infrastructure and education.
Repairing and expanding the nation's system of roads, bridges, tunnels, railways and airports should be a bipartisan endeavor, Obama said.
As for education, Obama said he wants states to help him achieve his goal of preschool for all of America's children.

Works in windows only
I've been using BT5 r3 since it was released, I'm a student in my final year studying PT and EH. Recently I have noticed problems with JTR and cracking NTLM and some MD5 passwords.
From what I gather john seems to cache the previous list thus making the job in hand more difficult. I like john its ideal for some situations but this puts me off.
Is anyone experiencing anything like this or could shed some light on the subject.
Primarily I don't do that much password cracking with john, but would like to find a fix. Or if someone can point me in a more applicable solution :-D that would be far better.
Generally Ophcrack will get most pwords I'm after with GPU support, but I'm right in the middle of exams - and am struggling to dig into the problem myself.
Most pwords are alpha-numberic with symbols and over 8 characters.
I did have an account on here - but lost it when my university changed to using outlook.com agggggggggg.
Thanks folks.

Just read this article, and it made me cringe. Especially the quote from the mother at the end.
Ā"To know that I would have that choice would just make me feel better. But to take it away from me just adds to the pressure of being pregnant." (in reference to not being able to CHOOSE to be induced or have a c-section at 37 weeks)
Obviously, this is just my opinion, but isn't choosing when to give birth for non-medical reasons a bit like playing God?

Practice? We're talking about "too much" practice?
Believe it or not, that's what Stew Morrill said on Thursday of his Aggies. But it was less a reflection of the amount of practice time and more a statement about how few games Utah State has played to this point.
Part of that is unusual circumstance, with Danny Berger's collapse wiping out last week's scheduled BYU game. But including the exhibition schedule, Utah State has only played two contests in a week once in the first seven weeks of the season.
"All you've got to do is look at the records: We're 5-1 and have played 6 games. Utah Valley has played 11 games," Morrill said. "We're behind most of the teams in the country in terms of how many games we've played. To be honest with you, we've had too much practice and too little games. It gets to that point where this time of year, you need to play some games."
A quick scan of the NCAA DI stats show that a number of other programs had only played 6 games coming into the week. It's been a good season to have so many practices with a new core of players growing together, but it does add up to a bit of practice fatigue.
"Sometimes practice can get overwhelming," Preston Medlin said. "You kind of want to get up for these games."
Of course, Utah State is just around the corner from catching up with the rest of the country on games, so it's a short-lived issue. Three games in as many nights for the World Vision Challenge at the Spectrum will test the Aggies in a tournament format.
Utah State also has a fast opening to the WAC schedule, playing four games in eight nights, with two on the road in Texas to start. By January, the Aggies might be ready to get back to practicing again.

First off would like to say this forum is great. The amount of information here is staggering.
I have a panasonic cf-29 toughbook which of course has the IPW-2200 ABG wireless card.
I honestly have the card working...at least as much of it that will function anyway.
MY question is this? I have seen it referenced a time or two about how to turn the TX power up on these cards. I have edited the proper files with what is needed...the filepath is "/lib/modules/3.2.6/build/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200/ipw2200.h". have done rmmod ipw2200, then modprobe ipw2200 to reload the modules and for some reason the power levels are not increasing even though the file itself is showing it has the power level i set. Im sure i have done something to mess it up where it is not doing what is supposed to or perhaps i just haven't edited the file in the proper place yet. Any help to try and see if this is possible or not still would be great.... All the references to changing the TX-power levels that i have found are all on older drivers for this wireless card. Have not been able to find any info on this on the newer cards as of yet?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Robin Thicke's Race? Wife? Lyrics? Dad? Hot, hot, hot and still hot!
I feel like the last person on Earth to finally figure out who Robin Thicke is.
His 'Lost Without U' song from his 'Evolution of Robin Thicke' CD drew me away from my gospel channel, compelling me to absorb the falsetto lyrics with wonder:
Baby you're the perfect shape
Baby you're the perfect weight
Is that a man singing?
I asked myself, before feeling like a fool falling in love yet again.
You don't want this guy
You don't want that guy
Okay, Robin Thicke is a brotha, I naturally assumed. One harkening back to the height of Maxwell, shouting out an ode to D'Angelo with his "how does it feel?" hook.
Treat me like it's my birthday
I want it this way, I want it that way
Then I caught the tail end of Robin Thicke's Today Show performance, actually just the interview seen in this video.
Something finally clicked in my brain, after all these months of making a mental note to "Google Robin Thicke" every time I saw the 30-year-old's name displayed on my minivan's panel.
Robin Thicke is a white boy!
And not just any white boy, but the son of Alan Thicke -- hence the familiar spelling of the last name.
So my gut is still reeling after finally watching the hot video of Lost Without U, which I wasn't even going to link to until I discovered that the woman in the Lost Without U video is none other than Robin Thicke's wife, the enviably gorgeous black actress Paula Patton.
Watch for Paula in upcoming This Wednesday movie trailers.
I'm so jealous. They're so gorgeous together.
And how the heck did Alan Thicke's son get so much soul?
Anyway, he's beautiful, she's beautiful, his dad's beautiful, Robin's music is beautiful -- he and my namesake will make beautiful babies.
In case you're like me, the small percentage of the populous who's not already hot for this guy, just check out all the stuff people wanted to know about Robin Thicke months ago.
Just imagine how much bigger Robin Thicke will get now...

Robbie is one like a breath of fresh air on the RnB scene. He just happens to be white which will make some go into a tirade about how they "stealing" our music but truth be told he has brought a different style back and everything is so cookie-cutter now this is definitely original music.

I was a production assistant in 1983 and I used to drop scripts off at the Thicke home in Sherman Oaks, California. Robin and his brother Brennan were home alone usually. Alan and their mother, Days of Our Lives soap actress Gloria Loring, were going through a nasty divorce. Brennan has diabetes and I was always concerned about them. They seem to have made it through those years well and landed on their feet. Good for them!

He's a very talented musician and seems to be an all around good person. He had a previous cd out called A Beautiful World, I think it came out in 02 or 03.. but it is prety good.. You should check that out as well. As always, love what you have to say.

Yeah, Steve Harvey interviewed him on his morning show a few months back when the song "Lost Without You" came out. It was a great interview, and it seems he began to blow up after that. He is an awesome talent - I've still got to get the CD though. Beautiful voice, and I'm so glad he's seeing success. I too was surprised to discover he was a white man! I hope he continues to produce the same, if not higher, level of music as he moves forward.

It may take a white boy to bring back the neo soul sound of the late 90's, Maxwell, D'Angelo, Jill Scott ect, I loved them all, i haven't checked out this white boy that has you excited but I will, I do not listen to much radio outside of my custom yahoo station which is mostly jazz. Thanks for the information

Spitting image of his old man. What was that sitcom that Alan Thicke was on in the 80's or 90's? Didn't watch it much but he seemed to be on enough commercials etc. that you couldn't help but know his name.
- Tuesday, April 10, 2007 2:15:00 AM
- Paula Neal Mooney said...
Yeah, and Robin imitated his dad, Alan Thicke, really well in an interview I recently watched.
And the sitcome was Growing Pains, with one of my favorite actors, Kirk Cameron.
People kid Kirk a lot for being such a strong Christian believer, but I love him and his beautiful wife and say God bless 'em!

That was one funny, enjoyable post, Paula! lol Sounds like your honey better watch out: Robin Thicke may come steal you away!
I first became aware of Robin several years ago, when he had a neo-soul video in rotation on VH-1 Soul. The name of the song never really stuck in my mind, but his sexy, confident, soulful voice was one that immediately make my head snap toward the TV.
When I learned this "blue-eyed soul brother" was the son of Alan Thicke, I smiled... I know how very cool Alan is and enjoyed seeing how the apple hadn't fallen far from the tree.
The dad, Alan Thicke, was close friends with a top, black DJ I knew back in Philly in the early nineties. Alan and my DJ friend "Dr. Perry Johnson" co-wrote and co-produced a hot little house-disco song together.
Their song never really went anywhere, but I thought it was great that, while he was hot on TV, Alan was spending his free time making music with the brothas!
...And how long did it take you post all those Robin Thicke links? lol I'm going back to click some right now!

PS -- I've never heard of his wife, Paula Patton. Hopefully one of your links will bring me up to speed on her career.

Robin Thicke was amazing yesterday on Oprah!
I'm turning into a serious fangirl.
And, Connie, thanks for the inside info about Robin Thicke's mom and dad.
So sad, divorce is...
And I checked out Gloria Loring's bio and Thicke's and Alan Thicke's too.
In 1983, the year of their divorce, Robin would've only been a 5-year-old, pretty young to be home alone.
I hope his brother Brennan was older!
And thank God for watching out for them all and carrying them thru to this point.
Robin Thicke's mom looks beautiful from her photos. And we already know Alan Thicke is gorgeous, so no wonder their sons are too...
- Friday, April 20, 2007 1:08:00 PM
People keep praising Robin because his wife is black. Well first of all she's mixed and she acts more on the white side, so he might as well have married a white girl. I doubt he would marry a darker skinned girl who acted more "black" (if you catch my drift). I guess Robin feels that he can have his cake and eat it too; he probably feels that he'll be credible to black people yet not have to deal with a girl who is 'overtly' black. Wigger please.
- Sunday, April 29, 2007 6:11:00 PM
- Paula Neal Mooney said...
"Wigger please" -- that's a new one on me! You made me chuckle.
Yeah, I just saw a pic of a gorgeous woman on the back of the Deja Vu DVD my hubby was reading.
"Who is that?" I asked, then answered my own question when I saw the name Paula Patton in the credits.
She is beautiful, and maybe Robin wouldn't have married a darker-skinned girl. I know the self-hatred blacks have created on one another, and I've got my own color complex issues -- I catch myself all the time thinking that warped mentality.
But like Robin said, he can't fake his soul. You can tell when a white guy is just trying to "put on" a black air about himself, and differentiate that from ones who just have an inner kind of coolness.
- Sunday, April 29, 2007 8:28:00 PM
Fine, he has "soul", but what I don't get is why in some interviews that I've seen of him, he uses so-called ghetto slang? Is'nt his dad famous actor Alan Thicke, which means that Robin was born in the suburbs in a mostly white neighbourhood. Why the ghetto slang? That to me is fake.

I did not know Robin Thicke had him a black woman, I thought she was spanish or somthing, ok I c him, lol, anyways I was actually using google to see what Color Robin Thicke was, I thought he was Italian, but a white boy, wow, he is so sexy, I love Robin Thicke, I wish I was that black girl, he gave his heart too

Good lookin' out to Cheynne at NerdWithSwag.comfor leading me to this in-depth interview with Robin Thicke:
Robin Thicke's interview with Giant magazine where he talks about cocaine, weed, the white man losing control, racism, Don Imus' remarks and losing his faith in organized religion -- hopefully not his belief in Christ!
- Saturday, June 02, 2007 8:47:00 AM
I'm probably not going to make most popular on this site with this post but, I wanted to make some points that -Anonymous also made but with less emotion.
First I would like to say...Yes, I loved "Growing Pains" when I grew up, Kirk Cameron and his gorgeous Dad...heck how many other choices did I have outside of the Cosby Show.
It's invariably funny that when a caucasion male does something similar to what comes naturally to blacks he has "soul." The same thing was said about Justin Timberlake. However, we can not rule out the fact that many celebrity images are calculated.
Don't get me wrong. I like Robin Thicke's album.
The Race Issue - He doesn't sound black. He sounds like Robin Thicke a practiced musician.
On his wife-I absolutely can't agree with the fact that everyone is identifying Robin as being with a "black" woman. She is NOT for all intensive purposes black unless its for good press. She is biracial. There's nothing wrong with this fact. I hate that black people have fallen victim to believing what "White folks" did to separate us from them long ago.. with their racism- One drop of nigger blood...You're a nigger.
No...they're biracial.
The idea of being colorstruck for making an observation - I'll agree there are some self-esteem issues in the black community. Let's ask ourselves why? and then make a conclusion. Slaves were treated differently and could have different lives based on the color of their skin. This was passed down for generations because it hasn't changed. In the 1800's if you were caramel colored you were definitely partly white. It's a little different but the sentiment is the same. Racism still exists. I assure you that the black experience is varied but never chosen for "Black/Brown" folks. It's the reason Halle Berry can win an award and Angela Bassett can be overlooked. Do you think she's a better actress?
So we can be sure, the reason Robin is standing out right now is because there are many things working in his favor.
1) no brotha's in the genre right now. This wouldn't be a phenomenon if Maxwell were singing something similar. So his timing is impeccable.
2)He's being embraced by the black community giving him authenticity to
3) white people who also embrace him for being able to do something they can't.
But, where has Robin been all these years?...my answer...working on his soul. He's not that young. Maybe you can enlighten me.
This is exactly why everything we've ever created we've generously given away (hip hop, breaking, jazz , etc.). I love my black people we smile and then wonder why as a people we don't have more.
Also, No white person can bring back soul sweetie...it never left!! He can only mimic what he's heard growing. Didn't you know it's cool to be black right now?
With all this said, I think Robin is gorgeous as far as white men go. But, I prefer Morris Chestnut types. I also like his music but its categorized in my ipod as easy listening music along with Michael Bolton. He also seems very nice and down to earth and his wife make a nice looking couple. However, I would question whether he would hang out with my "crew" although we all creative, musically inclined, and have triplet degrees.
Thanks for the links. It was fun learning more about Robin Thicke.
I'm always just tellin' it like it T-I-Tiz at www.tellitlikeitiz.wordpress.com.
P.S. forgive any errors I'm too lazy to review LOL! Sorry for the length...it's my passion.

But, where has Robin been all these years?...my answer...working on his soul. He's not that young. Maybe you can enlighten me.
after his first albumn ' a beautiful world' failed to reach commercial success, although it was critically acclaimed, he had a break cos he thought he had failed, he was in a mess and needed to sort himslf out, not to work on his soul.
He already had that, soul was imprinted in the whole of his first albumn, but not in the RnB way as you (i use that term as in general, not you specifically) would know it, more rockish, but that is still soul. Iv herad people descrbe it as poetry on music, which it certainly is.
I also dont understand why issues have to be made about race, and i dont undersatnd how someone can act like a race. How can someone act 'black' or 'white'?? is that not just generalising? Putting people into specific categories is how social barriers are created.
I'm asian, indian to be exact, but i wouldnt say that act like a typical one, i dont watch that many bolloywood films, and hardly ever listen to indian music, i havent got a strong accent so im not really stereotypical, but would that mean that im not actually indian cos i dont act like one?? and you cannot say that Robin would not have married Paula if she was darker, theyve been together for about 15 years, highschool sweethearts, and i doubt the darkness of he skin would have deterred him from marrying her, because it was her who got him through the afore mentioned hard period in his life.
sorry for long post, but i for one am sooo passionate about Robin's music, it is the truth and i have respect for him. When you listen to his music you feel as you truly know him. so please dont knock him until you truley know all about him. i know hes not as great as all the great soul artists, but i thnk with a little more growth and evoloution (hehe)he has got it in his capacity to one day be, and he will be in the hall of fame....

Black people aren't the only ones on this earth that knows how to sing, etc. Can a lot of black people sing? The answer is yes. Can a lot of non-black people sing? The answer is yes.
Just because a non-black person can sing, it doesn't mean they are trying to be black.
I am a black woman and I have yet to know what is black. The only thing that is black about me, is my race.
Robin is not trying to sound black. He is sounding like Robin. That voice was given to him. Just like Whitney Houston's voice was given to her.
As for Paula. Is she mixed? She could be, but that doesn't mean that she is mixed.
A black person can be Paula's color or lighter with good hair and not be mixed at all.
I have seen a picture of a little black boy (He's Bernie Mac color). I say he was probably one years old. He has blue eyes. Because he is black, does that mean he can't have blue eyes, unless he is mixed?

I don't care if Robin Thiche is white I like his music. I think his wife is beautiful, and I don't care if she happens to be black, mixed or whatever. All that matters is that they love each other. People need to learn to live in harmony and stop being so judgemental.

I read all these posts but one thing that we all seem to have forgotten is that beautiful song back in the 80's with Robin's mom and Carl Anderson "Friends & Lovers". She also co-wrote the theme song for "Different Strokes" and "Facts of Life" if most of you can't identify with Growing Pains which his dad starred in, then surely you would have viewed Different World to see Gary Coleman and Todd Bridges. Seems to me Robin was taught at an early age to accept people based on character and not color.
- Sunday, July 12, 2009 11:49:00 AM
I really HATE how people can't see past color. It doesn't even matter, no really, it doesn't. he's a man that makes amazing music and his wife is just a stunning woman. It's that simple, color doesn't have to be a factor people. geez.

His mother is the lovely Gloria Loring who is a beautiful singer and actor as well. I don't know if anyone already posted that, but just thought I'd add it anyway. She was a nightclub singer on the the show "Days of Our Lives" and I was so sad when she left. Robin has got great genes from both sides.

Getting out the vote
Yes, I know LinuxCon has come and gone, and I think they've got the publicity thing covered, especially with the 20-year thing, the gala party, and with Linus being there and all. The buzz is still going, and that's good. But if you're going to a Linux show, make it the Ohio LinuxFest in September. Bradley Kuhn and Cathy Malmrose are keynoting — along with Jon "maddog" Hall — so you'll not want to miss that (especially Cathy — Go ZaReason!).
With the upcoming deadline for the Linux Journal Readers' Choice 2011 Awards upon us — it closes this Saturday — other bloggers have been been taking to beating the drum and holding the phone for their favorites.
Not to be outdone, of course, there are a few candidates on the LJ ballot that deserve special mention. If I were campaigning for them, I'd definitely cast votes for items in the following categories (note, however, the list of categories and software on the ballot is long, and they're not all here):
Best Linux Distribution: No question, hands down. Fedora. Judging which is the best distro is akin to picking the best ice cream flavor — each of us has our own favorites, and hopefully you'll vote for yours. Mine comes in blue, is based on Red Hat, has the best desktop background release after release (the Design Team at Fedora is the best in the FOSS realm, period), it's always rock solid, and even if I can't use the default GNOME 3 desktop, Fedora runs great under KDE or Xfce. Fedora is reaching a point now where the myth that it's "only for experience users" is falling by the wayside, and if a lack of confidence in your skills has kept you from using Fedora, you should give it a try.
Best Desktop Environment: Oh, look! A minefield! Let's skip through it! You all know how I feel about GNOME 3; the aspect that I can't use it due to older equipment moreso than anything else (if I could vote for GNOME 2.32, that would be great). KDE? I like KDE though — truth in advertising — I'm a post-KDE 4.x user and not familiar with the way things used to be (and not familiar with why there's such a hubbub about it). I don't know why Openbox and Fluxbox, both windows managers, are in this category, and why isn't there a separate WM category? How did I vote? I'm cast a vote this year for Xfce, because I'm using it on Fedora 15 and will be using it again on Fedora 16, and while it's reputation is a lightweight environment, I'm finding there's a significant degree of tweakability to it. Also, if you really like WMs, I'd vote for OpenBox.
Best Web Browser: Konqueror. Just kidding. While there are some advantages to Konqueror that do not involve Web browsing, for getting on the information superhighway I usually go with Firefox, though on the Windows box at the newspaper I use Chrome. It's a toss up between those two.
Best E-mail Client: Another minefield and another tough call. What I use most is Thunderbird, because everybody knows the 'Bird is the word, and it's always worked well for me. What has always worked well for me in the past, too, and something I've always thought was one of KDE's stars is Kmail, which deserves a vote if you're so inclined. Claws is something I'm looking to try and haven't yet, so maybe if it wows me, it can be a leading candidate for 2012.
Best IRC client: Simple — it's irssi. It's what the cool kids use, once they graduate past Xchat. Konversation gets high marks, too, and readily available on KDE. But I voted for irssi.
Best Office Suite: OK, here's where we get to make history. Vote for LibreOffice — it's OpenOffice as it should be. It would be outrageously cool if LibreOffice took home the prize in this category, for starters because it deserves it, and it would be a good nose-thumbing to Oracle as well.
Best Graphic Design Tool: All of them. I'm serious. If there's ever been a category where each of the candidates deserves to win, it's this one. GIMP finally gets a single window, I'm told, thank $DIETY, but I ended up voting for . . . Inkscape. I'm not the artist in the family; that title goes to my daughter Mimi, but having drawn a little, I do like Inkscape a lot.
Best Audio Tool: Audacity. If Carla Schroder uses it and writes a book about it, then I'm there.
Best Kid Friendly Application: Another easy one — Tux Paint. I should be ashamed to admit this, but I'm not: Ever since Mimi was younger and we used Tux Paint together when she was learning her way around a computer, I have always loved this program and I still fiddle with it from time to time when I'm not doing anything else. Also, I count Tux Paint as one of the main influences in cultivating the artistic talent Mimi has shown.
Best Game: As bad as I am at it, I still think Super Tux gets the nod here, as it's a very creative game. Truth be told, I've never played any of the games on the list, except for Tux Racer, and I know my good friend Ken Starks over at the HeliOS Project is a fan of World of Goo.
Best Database: Our first heart-versus-head conundrum. If MySQL were the best, I may not vote for it on principle, but fortunately other databases have knocked MySQL from its perch at the top. I've only used two other databases and have liked them both: PostgreSQL and MariaDB. I really want to see MariaDB do well, but PostgreSQL is clearly the best of the bunch.
Best Programming Language: Again, the ice cream comparison comes into play and in my limited programming experience, I vote for what I know best. That would be Python.
Best scripting language: bash — accept no substitutes (OK, ksh if you need to).
Best IDE: Emacs in the hands of someone who really knows what they're doing (and sadly, that's not me) is simply an amazing tool. But I'm voting for vim. I can get more done using it, and I'm never backed into a corner, as I am sometimes with Emacs. Sorry, RMS.
Best Package Management Application: If it sounds like it tastes good, you have to go with it: yum. Honorable mention goes to Synaptic.
Best Content Management System: I've used Mambo and Joomla! in the past, and those happen to be my CMS roots. However, having used Drupal over the last few months, I have to say that I've made the switch. Drupal gets my vote this year.
Best Linux Laptop Vendor/Best Linux Desktop Workstation Vendor/Best Linux Server Vendor: I'm lumping these three categories together because the vote is the same in each category — ZaReason. The Berkeley, Calif., outfit makes outstanding, dependable hardware that's Linux based (or if you'd prefer, no operating system) and the service is top notch. You'll have to write in ZaReason in the Best Linux Desktop Workstation Vendor category, but you can mark the ballot in the other two.
Best Linux Book: A real page-turner, especially if you're into audio — "The Book of Audacity," by Carla Schroder. Buy it now.
Again, there's a plethora of other categories that I haven't touched on. Polls are open until Saturday. Vote early.

Somebody give me a cheeseburger
During my campaign for Insurance Commissioner of California in 2006 — where I just missed being elected to state office by a mere 46.5 percent of the vote — one of my campaign fundraising materials was a handout with a sandwich on it. It said, in effect, that if you give up one of these a week and send the money — $5 per week, in this case — to the campaign, you could have proper representation in Sacramento.
[It should be noted that, as a Green Party candidate, I did not take corporate campaign donations — not that any were forthcoming — so I needed a lot of sandwiches to mount an effective campaign. Thank goodness for FOSS, since I didn't have to buy any software, but that's another story.]
Yesterday's blog item about the Ubuntu earrings that are being used as a fundraiser for Partimus started me thinking about how some people shy away from donating to groups or, in our case, FOSS projects because they think it takes a lot up front.
Nope, it doesn't have to. It takes one sandwich at a time. Or coffee. Or dessert. Giving up one of these just once a week, multiplied by a significant number of people, can put some well-deserved projects in some pretty good financial shape.
It's very simple — instead of having that grande iced mochajavafrappamacchiato at Starbucks today, send the money via PayPal to a FOSS project that you use regularly, as a way of saying, "Thanks."
Give to Partimus, the project that is putting Linux-based computer labs in low-income schools in Northern California (or buy a pair of earrings). Or the HeliOS Project, since "a child's exposure to technology should never be predicated on the ability to afford it."
Like GIMP? Give to them here. Don't like it? Give to Inkscape instead.
The possibilities only end at the number of FOSS programs that are taking donations. Go to the programs that you use and look for a "donate" button.
Then give 'em a sandwich.

Baby's Dry Skin
I am quite worried on my baby's dry skin. At first I thought it was only because of sunburn that she got when we had an outdoor swimming a couple of weeks ago. But days have passed but still her skin appears scaly and dry. I have applied lotion and creams on a regular basis to keep the smoothness of her skin. Is this a form of skin asthma? Considering that we have a history in our family. Or just dry skin caused by the environmental changes?
1st May 2012 01:11 AM #2
Hi Charibelle_925,
Is the dry skin in one particularly part of your baby's body? It could be eczema (which looks like dry, scaly, thickened skin) - if you are concerned it is this you could check with your doctor. About 20% of children under 5 have suffered from eczema.
For babies with eczema or dry skin, daily bathing is often too frequent (as this dries out the skin). So you could cut back on her baths (to, say, 2-3 times a week) until her skin is less dry. It's also important to moisturise you baby's skin after a bath. My health visitor advised using olive oil! Emollients are often recommended for children with eczema as they 'lock in' the skin's moisture. You can also make sure you are only using natural cleaning products on your baby's skin - fragranced products (wipes, shampoos etc) are best avoided. Often just plain water is the best.
Dry skin can be aggravated by changing in the temperature as well as indoor heating and chemical products.
I hope this helps - please post back and let us know how you are getting on.
Best wishes,

Hi Charibelle_025,
LJ has give you some excellent information. If you are breastfeeding your baby, you'll want to be sure that you are getting enough vitamin C and Essential Fatty Acids in your diet. These things can greatly benefit dry skin and/or eczema and she will get them through your milk.
Post back how old your daughter is, whether she is breastfeeding, whether she is eating any baby food/solids, and where you are noticing the dryness on her skin (all over, or just certain areas). I'll try to give suggestions for how to get those good Essential Fatty acids into your baby.
Warm regards,

GSA Auctions 'Perfect Storm' Rescue Vessel
March 16, 2001
Contact: Deborah K. Ruiz, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, DC - A former U.S. Coast Guard cutter whose heroic rescues garnered notice in the movie, The Perfect Storm, made its debut on the U.S. General Services Administration auction Web site, GSA AuctionsTM , http://www.gsaauctions.gov, on Wednesday after spending more than six months without a permanent home.
Reported to the U.S. General Services Administration as excess by the U.S. Coast Guard in January 1994, the decommissioned Tamaroa was initially housed at New York's Intrepid Sea Air Museum until 1997. It was later housed at the Hudson River Park Conservancy until 2000. The Tamaroa is now at New York City Harbor in New York.
The Tamaroa was originally the U.S. Navy commissioned vessel USS Zuni, a 205-foot salvage tug. As the USS Zuni, she saw duty during World War II at Pearl Harbor and Iwo Jima and participated briefly in the Allied assault on Tinian.
It was later commissioned into the Coast Guard as the USCGC Tamaroa for search and rescue and law enforcement missions. The USCGC Tamaroa was one of the vessels sent to assist in the rescue of a sailboat during the so-called "No-Name Storm of Halloween 1991." The rescue successful, the USCGC Tamaroa returned to rescue four New York Air National Guardsmen whose helicopter had run out of fuel during a similar rescue mission.
These rescues earned the cutter the U.S. Coast Guard Foundation Award and were later detailed in The Perfect Storm, a popular book and movie.
The auction is set to close at 7 p.m. CST, on March 29, 2001.
The GSA AuctionsTM Web site has been developed to complete GSA's transformation to an all-electronic asset management system. The site offers completely Web-enabled auctions through which the general public may bid electronically on a wide array of federal assets. For details, please visit GSA's Web site, www.gsa.gov.

Fire breaks out in Booker T. Washington Building; no injuries
A fire of undetermined cause broke out at the Booker T. Washington building Friday, (Jan. 29), forcing the evacuation of 50 students and employees.
Columbia Fire Department officials said the blaze began at 10:46 a.m. and was extinguished at 11:46 a.m. Officials said the fire was contained to a storage closet on the second level of the building.
Law Enforcement and Safety Director Ernie Ellis said the fire is being investigated, but there is no reason to suspect anything suspicious at this time. Damage estimates have not been determined.
The historic building, constructed in 1955 and measuring 36,162 square feet, houses TRIO Programs offices and classrooms for theater and dance. Officials were not certain when the building would reopen.
The building is part a three-building complex, formerly Booker T. Washington High School, that was purchased by the university from Richland County School District One in 1974. The oldest building on the site, built in 1916 and facing on Marion Street, was razed because of prohibitive restoration costs. University officials worked with Booker T. Washington High School alumni on the wording for a plaque erected on the block to commemorate the site's significance as the first high school in South Carolina for black Americans.

Love this fragrance
Love this fragrance. Bought it to use as a scent in the formal living room near my Christmas tree at Christmas last year. Loved it so much, brought it to work to use year round. So many compliments. Smells like your outside in a forest after a spring rain. Co-workers have asked me to order the diffuser for them next time I place an order.

Fragrance That Lasts
I like this fragrance because it lasts until it is gone. My children want me to make sure that I have enough of it especially during Christmas season. It is one of our favorites.

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Manny Ramos, a Metro-North New Haven Line employee who police said was masturbating in front of a passenger on a train near Fairfield last month, will be arraigned on Tuesday, Feb. 11, according to ctpost.com
Ramos, who has since admitted to his actions on the train, said he was "stressed" as a result of a fractured marriage and an impending test as part of the Metro-North engineer training program, ctpost.com said.
When the incident occurred, the 33-year-old victim yelled, prompting Ramos to run off the train, but no one came to her aid, ctpost.com said.
The New Haven-bound train was stopped at the Fairfield station shortly before 9 a.m. Jan. 28, and all the cars were searched. The man was found during a search of the area near the station.
Ramos was charged with public indecency and second-degree breach of peace, but he is expected to also be charged with fourth-degree sexual assault during his arraignment Tuesday, according to ctpost.com.

I have never written a review in my life for anything. So this should tell you how the piccolo has impacted us. We couldn't get our little one too excited about rides with a less expensive design. But once we purchased this she is begging for us to ride her. Can't believe how such a well made piece can make such a difference! Get one!
My little boy really enjoys riding on his piccolo. The design, particularly of the hitch, is excellent and the build quality is very good.
Oldest son has used for 1 season. Have only done basic upkeep. Rides really well.

Jackson vs. Lanci for Cleveland mayor
(Cleveland) - Mayor Frank Jackson has drawn just a single challenger in his upcoming re-election bid.
Businessman Ken Lanci is only other candidate to submit petitions to the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections by Thursday's deadline. That means there will be no primary election in the mayoral race.
The two top vote-getters in the nonpartisan primary race typically face off in the November general election. But since only Jackson and Lanci have filed, there will be no mayoral contest in the September primary.
General election day is Nov. 5. Jackson and Lanci are both Democrats.
Four would-be candidates picked up petitions for the mayoral race, but did not file them by the deadline. Possible write-in candidates still have until Monday to file.

Los Angeles police continued their search Wednesday for a male who fired four shots at officers the night before as they responded to a traffic accident in Harbor Gateway.
The shots were fired from the second floor of a building. No one was hurt and officers did not return fire.
The gunfire was reported just before 10 p.m. Tuesday at the corner of Rosecrans and Vermont avenues.
Officers searching for the shooter set up a perimeter to divert traffic in the area. Traffic was allowed back in around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, police Officer Bruce Borihanh said.
Some people were stranded inside a 7-Eleven store near the intersection, according to a report by KCAL 9.
No one is in custody and officers continue to search for the suspect, Borihanh said.
No motive for the gunfire is known.
