Congress, Don't Let Us Down: Oppose the Bill to "Fast Track" TPP
EFF and other public interest groups have sent a letter to lawmakers reiterating our opposition to a "fast track" bill that would restrict Congress ability to have meaningful input into or review trade agreements like the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement, the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), and others. In particular, we denounce certain "trade objectives" in the bill that encourage a copyright maximalist agenda without upholding fair use rights. Beyond the procedural problems with fast track, the inclusion of such language contradicts an important doctrine in US law that has been crucial to give artists, innovators, students, and the public, the freedom to use, learn from, and build upon existing culture and technology.1
In the State of the Union address tonight, President Obama is likely to call for bipartisan support for his trade agenda, and call for the passage of this fast track bill. US lawmakers should stay skeptical of any claims that "fast track" would increase Congressional participation in trade agreements. Our representatives must exercise their constitutional authority over agreements like TPP to ensure that users' rights are upheld, not ignored.
If passed, the "Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities Act" would give over to the executive branch much of the exclusive constitutional authority over trade policy that Congress is supposed to exercise. Sponsors of the bill claim that this process "provides greater transparency and gives Congress greater oversight of the Administration's trade negotiations." But in fact, fast track does precisely the opposite, ensuring that there's even less transparency and less democratic oversight over trade negotiations, while making it easier for Big Content to impose its wish list of draconian copyright provisions on the US and its trading partners through secretive trade pacts.
Over 550 labor, environmental, and community groups have signed a letter in opposition to the fast track bill. This follows several other letters from both over 170 Republicans and Democrats in the House of Representatives who have written in opposition to this re-delegation of federal powers.
We have joined with a platform, StopFastTrack.com, that allows anyone in the US to get in touch with their representatives to stand firm against fast track. TPP is a sprawling agreement, with dozens of chapters covering a broad spectrum of policy areas, and the large and diverse set of groups opposing it speaks to that fact. While we may not all be concerned about the same issues, we can agree on at least one thing: trade agreements must be fair and transparent, especially if they might bind our lawmakers to new regulatory obligations.
The time is now to stop fast track and demand that the U.S. Congress hold our trade negotiators accountable. We need to maintain the pressure and ask that our representatives oppose this draconian process. Demand that your Congressional representatives step up to the plate and take back their Constitutional role in trade policy and shine a light on this opaque, secretive process.

It's the time of the year for dramatic finishes, and Ottawa provided heart-stopping moments in its 4-3 shoot out win in Philadelphia. Ottawa came out strong in the first period, faltered a bit in the second and played for its life in the third. Anderson bailed them out of an overtime offensive fire drill and Michalek and Spezza put the game away. In the final five games of the season, this was a big win for Ottawa, as it clings to its playoff spot with teams in the East battling it out to overcome 2 point differentials for that coveted final spot.
Philadelphia has already punched its ticket to the final, where their post-season may begin close to home in an all-out Pennsylvania turf war. They played the first period lackadaisically, but woke up briskly in the second after Ottawa pummeled in 3 goals. It was tough outing in a tale of two goaltenders: Ottawa's Craig Anderson has been standing tall in his net and is exuding very confident body language, while back up netminder Bobrovsky got the start for an injured Bryzgalov. Both of them were challenged in this game, with some puck bobbles that were costly, resulting in some messy and unusual goals.
Speaking of unusual goals, Simmonds opened the scoring for the Flyers with a puck off his face. Sean Couturier had a less painful, but time-consuming process to get the teams' second goal after it was initially waved off due to the net coming off its moorings. This decision was overturned due to a rule clarification that states a goal is considered a good goal if the peg is still in contact with the hole in the ice at the time the puck crosses the line. It was a lesson learned and a good one for Couturier, and while some fans may disagree with it or not like the results of it, it was, in fairness, a legitimate call.
If fans would like to argue goals, they should be looking at Coburn's game-tying goal on a puck bobble that initially looked weak on Anderson. While there's no doubt that it went in, it could be argued that if there was one of Philly's goals that Anderson should have had made a save on in the day, it was that one. But there's no need to nitpick about details, because as always, Anderson came up big when he had to, stopping great breakaway chances, keeping Giroux off the scoresheet by being unimpressed by his flashy backwards move in the shoot out and stonewalling Briere to give the Senators their win.
Spezza deserves a huge amount of credit in this win as well for the Ottawa Senators. Not only did he open the scoring in this game with a goal off of Bobrovsky's back, he also closed the scoring with a fast and furious shoot out goal. The energy of that goal was clear; he was going for Bobrovsky all the way and he took him down as methodically as an old Western sheriff. That kind of killer instinct is what has kept Ottawa in the playoff hunt in what was supposed to be a write off season. While it may not be necessary to pull out the big guns tomorrow against the New York Islanders, the Sens would not be doing themselves any favours by taking them lightly. Even if it is April Fool's Day.

Greg Went Missing — You Won't Believe Where I Found Him! [VIDEOS]
Greg Delange wasn't in the studio so I went looking for him. You won't believe what I found:
Greg Delange wasn't in the studio so I went looking for him. You won't believe what I found:
Memorial Day is totally different now. Before it was just a three day weekend.
As most of you know my son official joined the United States Air force on May 20th 2014.
You probably already know I have a pet chicken. Her name is Chaka Kahn. Most chickens hang out in a chicken coop -- Nooo! Not my chicken!
My ancestors are German and Russian (Jewish actually, but we're all Christian now). That means my mom has a really interesting family cook book. We always had fruit (berry) dumplings simmered in milk and butter that we called "gafilda" -- but the only food word even close to that is gefilte. Can anyone solve my mystery?
I love Facebook. I love getting attention on Facebook. In the past I've written up rules for Facebook. These included pet peeves and no-nos. Today I'd like to talk about something everyone SHOULD do on Facebook.
We have to keep the outside doors locked at the KORD studios because Greg leaves his wallet lying around the entire building. Today it was sitting by itself on a desk with no one around and a $20 bill poking out. Am I going to be in an episode of "What Would You Do?"
Greg Delange is a man who wears many hats for KORD. He builds haunted houses and Benton-Franklin Fair booths. He's our go-to fix it guy and construction expert. Today he explored a new skill set: Coke Machine expert.
My mom is so cool. She made Grabaducks (that's what my family calls them, but I think it's an Americanized version of the phrase "kraut bierocks," which is basically German cabbage burgers). She often makes them for my work crews when we're building the haunted houses, and after hearing how curious all my coworkers were, she made some for the other DJs to try!
My house only has one little bathroom. I haven't renovated because that's a TON of work and very expensive. But recently I came up with another idea: build one outside!
My son Alex is joining the Air Force in two weeks and I'm having a REALLY hard time with the idea of him leaving home! I shared my thoughts on Facebook and a lot of friends shared their thoughts and prayers with me making me feel much better. Thank you so much. Take a look at the wonderful things people said. I have the best friends in the world:
I've told you about my tortoise, my celebrity autograph collection, being forced to climb the radio tower at age 18 to change the light bulb, etc. Here are 10 MORE things you didn't know about me:

Fix The Trust Fund
When I go to Capitol Hill, too many Congressmen tell me they aren't hearing from their constituents on infrastructure issues. I then ask, "But are they calling about losing their jobs? Or not being able to make ends meet?"
The Congressmen always reply, "Of course."
As I often tell our elected leaders, these issues are not mutually exclusive; they are one and the same! Federal funding for roads, bridges, and transit is set to go over a cliff by the end of August. If it does, projects will stop, jobs will be lost, prices will go up, and public safety will be jeopardized.
The pending insolvency of the Highway Trust Fund is a complex funding issue that only Congress can solve. Yet, the consequences of the Highway Trust Fund issue aren't complex whatsoever—they will have a massive impact on American families and businesses.
The question is simple: how can we convince the public to tell Congress that going over the Highway Trust Fund funding cliff is simply not an option?
This week, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) launched FixTheTrustFund.org—a new grassroots campaign for families and business, giving them the tools they need to motivate Congress and find a sustainable, long-term funding solution to America's surface transportation funding crisis.
One of the many informative infographics available on www.fixthetrustfund.org.
The new website offers a simple way for users to learn about the issue and how it will affect them. The new site includes information and videos that show the real costs of Congressional inaction. The site urges action through a Change.org petition as well as the ability to send a message directly to your member of Congress. Users will be able to stay up-to-date on the issues through a dedicated blog feed as well as following and sharing #FixTheTrustFund on social media.
The truth is that American families and businesses are already paying for our inadequate infrastructure.
The more time we sit in traffic, the more we spend on gas. The longer it takes a package to get across the country, the higher the price. ASCE estimates that deficient, unreliable transportation infrastructure will cost the average American family more than $1,000 each year by 2020.
Now is the time for the federal government to lead. Secretary Foxx and President Obama have spent months touring the country, telling American families and businesses that we must invest in our nation's future. That moment is no longer someday in the future; it's here. In 78 days, the Highway Trust Fund will become insolvent.
Will Congress #FixTheTrustFund? Our new campaign certainly hopes so, but it is up to the public to make their voices heard.
Patrick Natale, P.E., is Executive Director of the American Society of Civil Engineers.

Stewart gets hit hard in Sox loss
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Because he was one of the players obtained from the White Sox for Kevin Youkilis earlier this season, righthander Zach Stewart was always going to have a place in Red Sox history.
Stewart got a chance to become more than a footnote on Wednesday night when he was given a start against the Los Angeles Angels.
Stewart's first impression was not a good one. He gave up nine runs in three innings as the Sox were beaten, 10-3, before a crowd of 37,841.
You have to go back to April 26, 1902 to find a pitcher who gave up more runs in his debut with Boston. That was Pep Deininger of the Boston Americans, who allowed 11 runs against the Washington Senators.
Stewart (1-3) gave up seven extra-base hits as the Red Sox fell behind, 9-1, before the third inning was over. He shouldn't feel too bad. Jon Lester allowed nine earned runs in two innings against Toronto on Aug. 20, 2010.
"I've had a few bad ones. It's always difficult, you never want to have a start like that," said Stewart, who was optioned back to Triple A Pawtucket after the game. "It's one of those things, all you can do is turn the page and go from there."
The Sox have allowed 10 or more runs in 11 games this season. Their starters now have an earned run average of 4.94.
Torii Hunter had three hits and two RBIs for the Angels, who have won six of their last eight games. Chris Iannetta had two hits and two RBIs. Los Angeles had 14 hits off Stewart and three relievers.
Rookie first baseman Mauro Gomez had three of the 11 hits for the Red Sox.
The Angels took a 4-0 lead four batters into the bottom of the first inning.
Mike Trout led off with a single and scored on a double to left by Hunter. Trout rounded the bases like he was running a relay leg in the Olympics. It was his 102d run in 107 games
Albert Pujols singled to drive in Hunter and took second on the throw to the plate. Kendry Morales then hammered a hanging slider into the stands in right field for his 17th home run.
"He got too many pitches up. He has to pitch down in the zone to be effective," manager Bobby Valentine said of Stewart. "He just wasn't able to do that tonight. It's tough to come up and make a start against this team and have things go bad from the first hitter."
Erick Aybar led off the bottom of the second inning with a double to right field, his line drive getting over the head of Cody Ross. Aybar tagged up and went to third on a Trout fly ball to right field. Ross made a strong throw but Aybar slid in under the tag. Hunter's single gave the Angels a 5-1 lead.
The lead grew to 9-1 in the third inning as Stewart continued to get rocked.
Morales doubled and scored on a two-out double by Alberto Callaspo. Aybar doubled in another run before Iannetta cracked a two-run homer to left field.
Stewart was finally pulled after three innings and 72 pitches. He is now 3-9 his career with a 6.55 earned run average in 32 games.
Junichi Tazawa went two innings in relief and allowed one run. Andrew Miller was next out of the bullpen and pitched a scoreless inning despite loading the bases with one out.
With the Sox trailing, 10-3, Alfredo Aceves came on for the seventh inning. Tuesday night, he gave up two runs in the ninth to cost the Sox a victory.
Aceves allowed a single by Kendrick and then walked Callaspo before getting out of trouble. He got Aybar to pop up before striking out Iannetta and Trout. Aceves then pitched a scoreless eighth.
Angels starter C.J. Wilson (10-9) entered the game 0-5 with a 6.09 ERA over a stretch of 11 starts since his last victory on June 26. Wilson, who was signed to a five-year, $77.5 million deal in December, has been a disappointment. But he did get the win, allowing three runs over six innings.
He scattered eight hits with two walks and four strikeouts. Wilson threw 108 pitches and improved to 5-0 in his last seven starts against the Red Sox.
Gomez singled in the second inning, took third on a single by Mike Aviles, and scored on a sacrifice fly by Scott Podsednik.
Podsednik singled and scored on a throwing error by Iannetta in the fifth inning. Jacoby Ellsbury later scored on a single by Dustin Pedroia.
That extended Pedroia's hitting streak to nine games. He has hit safely in 22 of the last 23 games with 15 RBIs. Pedroia is 34 of 95 (.358) in that stretch. His average is up to .282 on the season.
If the Angels make their way into the playoffs, they should vote the Red Sox a share. Los Angeles is 5-0 against the Sox this season, all of the wins coming in the last nine days.
Going back to last season, the Sox have lost seven straight games against the Angels.

3. Why does HonestReporting often link to paywalled articles? I want to be informed, but I don't want to pay for the articles you link to.
The most important issue is giving credit or criticism where it's due. If the article warrants a critique, scoops a story, or creates buzz and is behind a paywall, we'll give over the key information in our own words and/or a snippet quoted directly from the article.
With the Israel Daily News Stream, we'll link to what we feel is the clearest or most unique coverage of a particular development. Sometimes, we'll add other non-paywalled links "for more on the story."
All other things being equal, if we have to choose between a paywalled and non-paywalled article, we'll certainly link to the free one.
Papers like the Wall St. Journal and Financial Times allow you to bypass their paywalls by clicking through Google News. That's why you'll sometimes see an additional Google News link.
Remember, HonestReporting's media critiques and Israel Daily News Stream are free. We give readers enough key info, and anyone who's moved to look further into the matter can certainly do so on their own.
Which leads to the next question . . .
4. Sometimes, I want to get around a paywall to look further into an article. How can I do that?
It depends. If the article's behind a hard or combination paywall, you can't get around it unless someone with an account copies and pastes (or prints out) the article and sends it to you. You can also do some Googling to see if anyone else republished the article.
If the article is protected by a soft paywall, what people often do is simply delete cookies (or clear their history) from their computer or browser (What's a cookie? And how do I delete cookies from my computer?) Clearing your cookies/history will restart your monthly quota of articles.
Also, since clicking through social media doesn't always count against your freebies, you could also find someone who posted the article on Facebook or Twitter and click from there.
Papers sometimes temporarily take down their paywalls in the public interest. The Washington Post did this for the Navy Yards shootings. The NY Times and Wall St. Journal dropped their paywalls during Hurricane Sandy, and the Boston Globe did likewise during the Boston Marathon terror.
5. I subscribe to my local paper's print edition, and I bought a few news apps too. I shouldn't be charged any more for online content, right?
Presumably. But read the fine print or call the paper anyway. You could be in for a surprise.
6. Are paywalls the wave of the future?
They're still relatively new, and there's no consensus on how to gauge a paywall's success. No two papers are alike, and publishers don't release very much info about digital subscriptions and revenue.
But consider this: In August, the San Francisco Chronicle and Dallas Morning News junked their paywalls even as the Toronto Star launched one of its own. And The Australian revamped its paywall as part of a larger web site overhaul.
So bottom line: nobody really knows.

Steve Jobs Had a Liver Transplant Two Months Ago 436
evw writes "The Wall Street Journal reports that Steve Jobs had a liver transplant two months ago (subscription required, alternative coverage is available based on the WSJ's report). He is on track to return to work at the end of June. 'William Hawkins, a doctor specializing in pancreatic and gastrointestinal surgery at Washington University in St. Louis, Mo., said that the type of slow-growing pancreatic tumor Mr. Jobs had will commonly metastasize in another organ during a patient's lifetime, and that the organ is usually the liver. ... Having the procedure done in Tennessee makes sense because its list of patients waiting for transplants is shorter than in many other states.' There are no residency requirements for transplants."

The ship was lost over 100 years ago, but people are still enjoying a taste of Titanic
That this Edwardian feast lives on is thanks to one man: chef Connor McClelland of Rayanne House. Nestled in the cosy, tree lined suburbs of Belfast Rayanne House is HQ for Titanic-themed tastings. And it's not just on the plate where you'll get a sense of the ship. From the balconies in the guest rooms there, guests can look out onto Belfast Lough where Titanic first sailed. Menus are printed on Titanic tickets and little hints of the ship dot the interior.
It's in a kitchen, however, where chef McClelland meticulously recreates Titanic's First Class menu every night – all nine courses of it.
Contrary to popular belief, all passengers on board the Titanic, from the steerage paupers to the elite, enjoyed good food. Unsurprisingly, the first class dishes were the most indulgent.
If you want an idea of just how important food was to the White Star Line, look at their wage structure: after the captain, the head chef was the highest paid member of staff.
McClelland specifically uses the menu from the final night the ship was afloat, the 14th April 1912. That particular menu, and many others found aboard the White Star Line's fleet of ships, was heavily influenced by a certain Augustus Escoffier. Head chef at London's Savoy Hotel at the time, Escoffier was considered one of the greats of 19th century French cuisine.
Following on from Edwardian trends, Titanic's food was incredibly rich. As Chef McClelland tell us, the Edwardians based their social status on their girth. The bigger the waist – the bigger the wallet.
At the tables of the Edwardian elite, meals lasted for a couple of hours, and with were effectively considered the main source of an evening's entertainment.
Chef McClelland can sympathise with the Edwardian palate:
"Personally, I think I would have been a natural Edwardian as I am such a carnivore and we know the Edwardians loved their meat. Lamb chops were even served for breakfast on board the Titanic – yummy. What a way to start your day. Although, this diet cannot have helped your waistline."

According to blogger IdleHistorian Edwardian men were known to consume around 5000+ calories a day thanks to a diet consisting mainly of red meat and wine.
To gauge just how much the Edwardians ate, Britain's BBC Four challenged the constitutions of two presenters on the television programme, Edwardian Supersize Me. The show followed comedian Sue Perkins and food critic, Giles Coren as they spent a week living as a wealthy couple from the era. As the two found out, eating like an elite Edwardian ancestor could lead to you contracting gout, among other painful medical conditions, within weeks. Is it any wonder that the average life expectancy for Edwardian men was 42?
Fear not though. One night at Rayanne House will not send you to an early grave. After all, everything in moderation.
"Most of our guests are surprised that they manage to eat all of the nine courses and I have tailored the menu portions to suit today's palate. The original menu consisted of 11 courses and the portions would most definitely have been larger. The secret is to pace the menu over approximately 3 hours", McClelland says.
If he had to recommend just one dish from his vast menu, it would be "the Roasted Squab/Pigeon and watercress salad with grilled asparagus and Saffron champagne vinaigrette. I love the combination of all the flavours together."
McClelland is eager for customers to come away with a sense of the Titanic and Belfast city is brimming with the ship's legacy. Over nine courses and in sight of the very lough where Titanic sailed, he has done just that and a little bit more.

NHS and UK Health Insurance
By Joshua Wood
Summary: Are you eligible for coverage under UK's National Health Service (NHS)? Do you also need expat health insurance? This article provides an overview.
Expats in the U.K. that are working there can become eligible for coverage under the National Health Service.
Others will need expat health insurance
Here are a few health care tips from expats already in the UK (taken from our UK expat forum):
- Get your health care sorted out and ask HR about added medical coverage. Many companies offer supplemental health care as a benefit, but some are cutting this out of their benefits plans. You are automatically covered under NHS, but for the first year of residency, you are limited to walk-ins and hospital emergency rooms. Once you live here for a year, you can register with a proper heath care facility and get a primary care physician, but until then, you have very limited choice of doctors and specialty care. This may be important for your children particularly.
- Consider keeping a health insurance policy in the U.S. for major illnesses. The NHS health care system here is not as bad as people make it out to be, but the U.S. is still better for high end care. It is good to have the option of returning to the U.S. for extremely complicated issues.
- Get caught up on all heath visits, tests, eye exams, dentist visits, etc. before you leave. The rules for tests are different here, so for instance, women get mammograms every 3 years, not every year. NHS does not really have the concept of an annual physical. Basically, you go to the doctor when you have something wrong. You are covered for annual physicals however, when you have the extra health insurance coverage. You can, of course, get a physical any time you wish, but you pay extra for it if you are not covered.
Also note that when you are covered by NHS, a GP will be a gatekeeper that must refer you to specialists. Long waits can occur for these specialists, and for test and procedures that are not considered to be urgent. Having supplemental insurance gives some expats peace of mind to avoid these if needed. NHS provides information about NHS waiting times.
The NHS in the UK determines eligibility in large part by whether or not you are from a European Economic Area country or Switzerland.
Here are some explanations of what overseas visitors and expats from EEA and Switzerland in the U.K. can expect to receive in terms of NHS benefits. Here is information for expats from outside the EEA
Here is Guidance on overseas visitors hospital charging regulations.
The NHS Choices provides lots of official information and health care information.

Wife Of Former USC Coach Dies
January 2, 2014
Betty Boyd, the wife of former longtime USC men's basketball coach Bob Boyd, died on Monday, in Palm Desert. She was 84.
Services are pending. She is survived by her husband, Bob, and sons, Jim, Bill and John, as well as 10 grandchildren.
The Boyds were married when Bob was on the basketball team at USC, where he lettered for three years (1950-52).
After coaching high school for five years (at El Segundo and Alhambra Highs) and then for six years at Santa Ana Junior College, Bob Boyd spent two seasons (1964-65) as head coach at Seattle University. He next embarked on a 13-year career (1967-79) guiding USC, going 216-131 overall and reaching the post-season four times.
His 1971 Trojan team, which went 24-2, is regarded among USC's best. His wins over UCLA in 1969 and 1970 were the Bruins' fi rst losses in Pauley Pavilion.
After USC, he became the head coach at Mississippi State (1982-86), Riverside Community College (1989) and Chapman (1990-92), and then was an assistant at LSU and Utah State.

rod/reel matchup
Hello, I'm new to the cite so please bear with me. I'm an avid ordinary fisherman and recently became an addict to flyfishing. I inherited a custom made 9' 7wt. flyrod from my father in law. I would like some advise on a matching reel, one that I could use for trout and some of the bass in our lakes in California. I'm looking at either the ross rhythm or the Orvis Battenkill BBS II.
I'm looking for an all around set up that I could use so that I don't have to get an additional set up. Thank you. PS- Line Wt. and Capacity information would help me in my quest. |

Hi, and welcome to the site! Matching a reel to a custom rod can be very difficult without being able to actually hold the rod. Your best bet is to take the rod to a local fly shop and try out a few reels on it to see what feels good when you're casting. The 7 wt will be fine for bass, but that's a lot of rod for trout. You really want something in the 4-5 range for trout. That's not to say you couldn't use it for trout, but you'll have a tough time presenting small flies with a rod that big.
Ross makes excellent reels so you can't really go wrong there. The Rhythm 3.5 model would probably be the correct match for your rod. The Orvis Battenkill reels also have an excellent reputation, but the BBS II is much too light for a 7 wt rod. It's designed for 2-5 wt rods. You probably would need the BBS IV, which is designed for 6-9 wt rods, though the BBS III might be ok (4-7 wt) depending on your custom rod. You'd have to cast with each to see.
My passion for catching fish is eclipsed only by the fish's passion not to be caught. Scott |

San Diego To Consider Laura's Law
Wednesday, March 20, 2013
San Diego County Supervisors are considering whether to adopt a state law that allows court-ordered treatment for mentally ill patients who refuse to take medication.
Aired 3/20/13 on KPBS News.
San Diego County is considering whether to adopt Laura's Law, a state law that allows court-ordered treatment for mentally ill patients who refuse to take medication.
Laura's Law has been cited as a way to help prevent tragedies like the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut.
Supervisors Dianne Jacob and Dave Roberts initiated a staff review of the law.
Implementing Laura's Law would make it possible to mandate outpatient treatment for patients who refused it. San Diego currently has an in-home treatment program called IHOT, which is voluntary.
Roberts said 19 family members, including one of his neighbors, testified before the board about the difficulties they face with loved ones who are mentally ill but refuse treatment.
"Right now if they are not in the IHOT demonstration program," he said. "They have to go to the criminal justice system to get their loved ones into protection, and that's not a good choice either. So where is the balance?"
Supervisors may ask the state to modify Laura's Law before adopting it in San Diego.
In the past, San Diego County has chosen not to implement Laura's Law, partly to preserve patients' rights and partly to save money. But Roberts said county staff will look at whether implementing the law could actually save money in the long run.
The supervisors will consider staff findings in 90 days before voting on whether to adopt the law.

I love the visual design of Thok the Bloodthirsty. Why? Because Thok takes the basic awesomeness of a devilsaur and adds a great big freaking axe to his or her face. This is also why I love the Battlegear of Wrath - it's a suit of armor intended for warriors that is basically axes strapped to everything. This is the kind of crazy I can get behind. I find the idea of restraint appealing in its place, but sometimes I just want to see axes strapped to devilsaurs. Strap axes to everything! Hey, I have an axe... how about we strap more axes to it? I say thee yay.
So I'll put it to you - is there any point where you feel like the game didn't go far enough? Do you wish your Zhar'doom doesn't have enough felhounds on the stick? Do you wish your Heart of the Aspects was even more sinuous? Do you long to tape Gorehowl to your face and just headbutt your way through trouble? Okay, so I have an axe fixation today. Axes are freaking awesome. Let's strap axes to everything. Everything.

The 2016 EDM Forum Review highlights major events, initiatives, programs, and policies that set the stage for evidence-based system transformation. This year, the Review highlights four key trends in 2016 related to:
Concordium 2016 aims to advance the strategic development and use of evidence to transform health systems. Concordium showcases innovation and leading ideas; provides an opportunity to share emerging science and applications; and promote collaboration to improve health.
This year's conference brought together individuals and organizations working with health data to integrate evidence, practice, and policy in the delivery system setting. With discussion-based, innovative session formats, the conference featured a transdisciplinary convergence of individuals designing and executing strategies for delivery system transformation.
"Open science" includes a variety of approaches to facilitate greater access to data and the information produced by processes of scientific inquiry. Recently, the health sciences community has been grappling with the issue of potential pathways and models to achieve the goals of open science—namely, to create and rapidly share reproducible health research. eGEMs' continued dedication to and milestones regarding the publication of innovative, useful, and timely research to help contribute to the push towards open science is discussed, as well as the EDM Forum's new data sharing platform, CIELO. Although strides have been made, there is still more work to be done to help health sciences community truly embrace open science. READ MORE
The EDM Forum is currently soliciting submissions to the PROactive toolkit to promote emerging best practices for implementing patient-reported outcomes (PRO) in health care settings. PRO measures, implementation guides, governance modules, analytic plans or code for analyzing PRO data, and other tools will be accepted to promote the dissemination of useful and generalizable strategies to assist clinicians, administrators and researchers who are interested in including PROs in their work.
The toolkit will be a living resource and we invite you to submit materials you feel will be helpful to accelerate appropriate uses of PROs in practice.

White Rock politicians pitch in after cold-night plea
Talk of a fundraiser aimed at helping keep people out of the cold led to a warm offer by four White Rock councillors.
The solution followed an appeal by Sources' Denise Darrell for the city to waive $420 in banner and facility-rental fees in connection with the non-profit organization's upcoming 'Coldest Night' evening-walk event.
Coun. Louise Hutchinson, in her role as acting mayor, suggested the group should apply for a grant-in-aid "as soon as possible."
However, Coun. Al Campbell had another thought – "I'll help pay for that."
Campbell's offer was quickly echoed by Couns. Grant Meyer, Larry Robinson and Bill Lawrence.
Sources' executive director David Young told council the event is a first for White Rock. Set for Feb. 22, it has been held in communities across Canada since 2011, and takes place during what is typically the coldest month of the year.
This week, overnight temperatures are forecast to dip as low as -10C. Environment Canada issued a statement Monday advising that wind chill could bring that down to -20.
Young noted there are about 50 identified homeless people in the White Rock area.
The Coldest Night experience – challenging participants to walk two, five or 10 kilometres in the chilly night air – is intended to provide a glimpse of what those who are homeless face on a daily basis this time of year.
Fundraiser proceeds will help "the homeless, the hurting and the hungry," Young said.
Locally, it will bolster Sources' Rent Bank, a program that provides short-term micro-loans to eligible low-income residents in Surrey, Delta, White Rock, New Westminster and Langley. Launched in January 2010, it has so far helped keep a roof over the heads of more than 400 people.
Last year, however, the rent bank ran out of funds in May – at which point the number of loans provided in 2013 (47) had doubled that given in all of 2012. The program receives about 1,300 applications annually.
Young is hopeful the Coldest Night will draw 20 teams and raise at least $25,000 for the program.
The walk routes begin and end at Sources' White Rock office, 882 Maple St., starting at 5:15 p.m. Registration opens at 4 p.m. A warm, light meal will be served to all walkers and volunteers between 6-8 p.m.

The warm, dry weather, and the long daylight hours have helped encourage these riders, of course. But the high price of gas has too. I doubt that they are likely to keep riding if gas prices drop again. In the 1970s there was a similar surge in cycling, but it ended when the oil embargo did. That's understandable: We are human and it isn't normal to put yourself into an uncomfortable situation, like on a bike seat, when there is a comfortable alternative, like a car. Only weirdos like me choose the hard path!
I have been bike-commuting nearly every day since 2002, and before that I mostly worked at home. In fact, I have only ever commuted by car for about four years total out of my 25 year career, most of that while I was attending college and working full-time. I chose this in part because:
- I was raised to care about the health of our environment.
- I was also raised not to waste needlessly.
- My health and fitness matter to me and I have tried to never take them for granted.
- The typical commute by car didn't appeal to me and can be stressful.
- I am a car enthusiast and have always taken good care of my cars and didn't want to put unnecessary miles on them.
- I love cycling!
OK, I know this all sounds "holier than thou." Sorry. Though it should be noted most of those reasons are selfish, so how can that be seen as somehow noble? Hey, I do this mostly for me, and I do own and drive a car! So while I do feel good about my positive contribution to our world, I'd ride regardless.
But what I'm getting at is that it is unreasonable to expect people to take up bike-commuting unless they are absolutely forced to. People have shown that neither their own poor health, the deteriorating environment, the high costs, nor the death toll from driving, will get them out of their comfortable cars. We love 'em!
Gas costs have made driving a larger part of our monthly expenses, and inefficient gas-guzzlers are dropping in value to the point where the owners of them can't unload their vehicles... the low selling prices would cost them even more than the cost of the extra gas! Some people have bought scooters, electric bikes, hybrid cars or motorcycles in response. A few hardy souls have dusted off their old bicycles or bought new ones. Business is up in bike shops, and compacts are the top-selling cars in the U.S.
If gas prices drop again I will expect to see a drop in the number of bike-commuters out there too... all the great reasons for riding forgotten. And a resurgence of SUVs at the expense of hybrids. But who really believes the price for gas will drop again in our lifetimes? It won't for long, or by much, I suspect.
And even if people here keep cycling because of continuing high gas prices, it's not like the burn-rate of our limited oil reserves will go down. In fact it's mostly increased demand from developing nations that has caused the recent gas price increases. So we humans will be destroying our environment just like usual, and even paying more to do it, until we finally run out of oil.
I look forward to seeing you all out there on your fun old bikes!

DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Mortar shells have hit a cafeteria at Damascus University in Syria.
And according to state media and a Syrian official, at least 12 people have been killed, with 20 others wounded.
Rebels began firing shells at the capital earlier this year, and the attacks have become increasingly common in recent weeks.
A government-run TV station showed footage of tables and chairs turned upside down, shattered glass and blood on the floor.

For those who are interested...
Here's a chart of the song broken down into which parts are sung by whom. Legend: E - ELISA L - Lia D - Duo C - Chorus Spoiler:
Being a big fan of ELISA, and having taken a liking to Lia's past work... this is probably the second most awesome duo I've ever seen. First still has to be Happy Material Return (Mahou Sensei Negima OP) by Yui Horie and Minori Chihara, live at Animelo. @Vegard Aune: Indeed, the original still is amazing in comparison. I doubt we'll see something from the newer series top it. (Also, if someone wants me to chart the other track on the single ("A Brand New God Only Knows"), just let me know.

Was kinda sad to find out A Whole New World God Only Knows wasn't the epic 10 minute of God Only Knows, but it sounds great with Lia and Elisa singing together.
Figured the other singer was Lia, her voice is quite distinct. Edit: Well, just listened to the second song on the CD... and it's sounds slightly awkward to me... anyone else get that vibe?

Hmmm, the OP song caught my interest when I watched it in the first episode, so I just gave the full version a listen and I am pleased.~
It's sung in English which I appreciate very much. I wish they did this more often. Then I'd probably be more inclined to listen to OP songs. I really liked the first season's OP song, and while that one was longer, it was more like a mix of songs than just one, but much more impressive overall. This one, despite staying the same for the entirety didn't really live up to it's predecessor. It's still a good and catchy song though, and it's now on my MP3 player.~

In addition to the character singles, just as it was last season, there's going to be an album for season II. But it's not Kanon this time. It's the Loose Souls Team of Elsie and Haqua. They've already had a character single apiece, and a solo version of Koi no Shirushi/Ai no Yokan/duet version of AnY, but this album marks something dedicated to just them. I don't know the contents of it yet, but it has been announced.
And it'll be one hell of an album. |

I listened to the radio show today and 1 of the tracks confirmed for that album is the Elsie solo version of Ai no Yokan. Since she doesnt get a character CD this season, they just put it there. There is also another Kanon single to be released on september alongisde the album...cannot wait to get them.

Binding the DataList ASP.NET Control with Dynamic Templates | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Learn how to programmatically implement the ITemplate interface to dynamically create the ItemTemplate content for a DataList Web Server control. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Welcome to the 22nd chapter of the FREE online programming course: Back in the last few chapters, we've looked at several different approaches to data binding in ASP.NET web applications: binding list controls, using binding expressions and binding the Repeater control (the most lightweight of all data bound list controls). Throughout this chapter, you'll learn about the following: DataList Web Server ControlThe DataList offers a richer feature set than the Repeater, including automatic generation of
,
 and  tags (optional) to hold each list item. DataList also requires that you create templates to define the content and layout of each item.DataList supports 7 different templates. Beside those found in the Repeater, the DataList also provides the SelectedItemTemplate and the EditItemTemplate - to allow selecting and editing of items. Editing and selecting in data bound list controls will be discussed when we introduce the DataGrid control. The layout of the DataList control is controlled with the RepeatLayout property. Setting this property to RepeatLayout.Table will display the DataList in a table format, while RepeatLayout.Flow displays the DataList without a table structure. When you drop a DataList control on a web page, at design time, you'll get the following: Delphi allows you to specify some of the templates visually. Right click the DataList and select "Header and Footer Templates" from the drop down list, to edit the templates. Add a hyperlink to the Footer Template (assign both the Text and the NavigateUrl properties), and a "string" to the Header Template. Select "End Template Editing" from the right-click menu. Note that the design time rendering of the control has not changed, however when you switch to the "aspx/html" view the asp markup will be:
Note: if you run the project now, you'll get an "empty" page at run time (rendered to the user in a Web Browser). DataList will not render if the DataBind method is not called. The DataSource
The Page will have a property Articles (ArrayList of TArticle objects). Here's how the Page_Load event should look:
The "FillArticles" method simply places some TArticle objects in the Articles property:
Note that while the DataSource property is assigned and the DataBind method is called - at run time - no items will be renderd! Reason? We haven't specified the ItemTemplate! Take a time to look at the resulting HTML:
The "About Delphi Programming" string is what we placed in the Header Template. The "delphi.about.com" is the HyperLink control we added to the FooterTemplate. Since I've already explained how to create a sample ItemTemplate (declaratively inside the control's markup tags) for the Repeater control and how DataSource and DataBind (and the DataBinder class) are used - this time I'll show you how to create one of the templates programmatically. Implementing the ITemplate InterfaceTo create any of the templates programmatically a custom class needs to implement the ITemplate interface. ITemplate has only one procedure, InstantiateIn, which receives a Control parameter. The control passed to InstantiateIn defines the Control object to which child controls in the template will be parented. Here's the full source of a custom class implmenting the ITemplate interface.
The InstantiateIn procedure creates and adds controls to the specified container control. If data binding is required on any of these controls, the DataBinding event must be hooked up. I decided to use the PlaceHolder control as it provides no rendering of its own and can be used as a container. A HyperLink control is created and placed "inside" the PlaceHolder. DataBinding even handler explained Once we lay our hands on the DataItem, by simply casting it to the correct class (TArticle) we can assign values to properties of the HyperLink control created in the InstantiateIn implementation. Note: while this looks messy, it's quite straight-forward ... just follow the code :) Finally, the page rendered to the user: Download the full source to explore. Also, try playing with various properties of the DataList. To the next chapter: A Beginner's Guide to ASP.NET Programming for Delphi developersThat's it for today. In the next chapter we'll continue exploring the topic of data binding in ASP.NET.If you need any kind of help at this point, please post to the Delphi Programming Forum where all the questions are answered and beginners are treated as experts.

Graduate Student Seminar: "Immunomodulation by a TLR4-interacting SPA4 peptide." Presented by Vijay Ramani, graduate student, Dept. of Pharmaceutical Sciences, OU College of Pharmacy (Graduate advisor: Dr. Shanjana Awasthi)
Seminar is in CPB 101 (OKC) and 2H37 (Tulsa)
Abstract: Immune mechanisms involved in infection, inflammation and cancer are associated with an increased level of Toll-like receptor (TLR4). The TLR4 is required for recognition of pathogens, pathogen-derived ligands, and endogenous stress signals, and induction of innate immunity. Activation of TLR4 can also lead to an exaggerated and chronic inflammation. Several TLR4-modulators and antagonists are currently being tried mainly for the anti-inflammatory activity. A TLR4-interacting SPA4 peptide was recently derived from the interface of SP-A-TLR4 complex. Recent results obtained from cell systems and mouse models of infection and inflammation demonstrate that the SPA4 peptide reduces inflammation and pathogen-burden, improves tissue pathology and alleviates clinical symptoms. My seminar will include an overview of these findings and possible mechanisms of SPA4 peptide activity.

I was given this pistol in excellent condition by a friend of mine. Upon shooting several boxes of .380 "hardball" through the gun,the gun locked up and upon inspection the breechblock was found to be cracked.
I was very lucky to find a replacement at a recent gun show in a vendors "junk box". Once again, upon firing, the breech block cracked! Does anyone have any ideas or source for a new breechblock? The gun has a very interesting history and has one of the most comfortable grips I have ever handled. It is said that General Patton carried one in dress uniform on occassion. Any help would be great. Thanks! DDS |

Hi, DDS,
Please forget about shooting that 51 Remington. They are fine collectors items and mechanically interesting, but were not very durable even in the old days before our new hotter .380 loads. Parts are very scarce and it is not likely that anyone will be eager to repro that complex breechblock. The designer was Pedersen, of Pedersen Device fame, who worked for Remington and designed many of their shotguns and rifles. He wasn't a bad designer, but was fated to always be a step behind Browning and had to work around the great John B.'s patents. Jim |
