To hide the facts about failed trade policies, proponents are changing the data
As more communities are increasingly successful in their efforts to limit "big box" store expansion and destructive retail practices through transparent and accountable measures at the local level, Wal-Mart and other retailers have pursued a strategy of global preemption that threatens to undermine these local laws. In 1994, the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) failed to safeguard local authority over zoning and land use by signing up retail, hotel and restaurant services without making exemptions for land use laws, as many other WTO signatory countries did for their local land use laws. Among the types of measures that could be threatened under the GATS are land use ordinances that limit the height or size of buildings, establish hours of operation rules, limit development along coastlines and require an economic impact analysis for large retailers.

Car News: 2012 La Auto Show
2013 Hyundai Santa Fe: LA Auto Show
- Longer than the 5-passenger Santa Fe Sport, with room for up to 7.
- Standard 290-horsepower 3.3-liter V6.
- Replaces Veracruz in Hyundai's lineup.
Both versions of the new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe appeared earlier this year at the New York Auto Show, but the 5-passenger Santa Fe Sport was the star there. Here at the LA Auto Show, it's the larger 6- and 7-passenger Santa Fe. The 2013 Santa Fe GLS and Limited are 8-1/2 inches longer than the Sport. Both offer 3-row seating and are powered by a standard direct-injection V6.
Until the 2013 model year, the Santa Fe was strictly a 5-passenger crossover. The Hyundai Veracruz was the automaker's 3-row crossover model. The new, larger 2013 Santa Fe GLS and Limited replace the outgoing Veracruz.
The GLS seats seven passengers across its three rows, while the Limited replaces the second-row bench with a pair of captain's chairs, providing room for six. Both models are powered by a 290-hp direct-injection V6--also found in the Hyundai Azera sedan. A 6-speed automatic is standard and all-wheel drive (AWD) is optional for both trims.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has not yet rated fuel economy for the crossover, but Hyundai estimates 18-mpg city and 25-mpg highway for front-wheel-drive models. With AWD, only highway economy drops by 1 mpg. That's an improvement compared with the Veracruz, which is rated at 17-mpg city and 22-mpg highway with front-wheel drive. The Santa Fe's 320-lb weight advantage over the outgoing Veracruz is certainly responsible for some of the improvement in fuel efficiency.
With an all-new exterior design, the 2013 Santa Fe features Hyundai's "fluidic sculpture" design language. But compared to the Santa Fe Sport, the design of the larger crossover is more restrained. The exception is a large hexagonal grille that gives the front fascia a bold look.
The Santa Fe gets a host of newly available equipment, including comfort and convenience features and the latest technology. Heated rear seats and steering wheel, a panoramic sunroof and sliding and reclining second-row seats are all available. An optional third-generation navigation and media system includes an 8-in display. Hyundai's Active Corner Control AWD works behind the scenes to provide power and braking to specific wheels, improving cornering and safety on a variety of surfaces.
Pricing for the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe has not yet been announced. We expect more information before the new model arrives in dealerships early next year.
What it means to you: The 2013 Santa Fe is already available in 5-passenger Sport form. The larger 6- and 7-passenger versions, Santa Fe Limited and GLS, go on sale early next year.

It's difficult to lay all the blame on Jerome Block Jr. for his recent behavior at the Public Regulation Commission. After all, the dude had almost 99,250 voting enablers.
As a former SFR staff writer, I exposed the first cracks in Block's story back in 2008. Now—three years later and 800 miles away—I suppose it's easy for me to be harsh. But come on, New Mexico. You really didn't see this coming?
Covering Block for the Reporter, I was in constant awe. It wasn't just that there was something wrong with him—there was nothing right.
With the sole qualification that he shared the name of his father, who also served as a Public Regulation Commissioner, Block squeezed out of the Democratic primary with less than 23 percent of the vote. Then his biography began to fall apart. We caught him lying about previous criminal charges, including allegations that he'd drunkenly peed on police property. Court records revealed a pattern of dodged hearings and child-support meetings. Even his education claims were seriously misleading [news, June 25, 2008: "Failure to Appear"].
As a candidate, he claimed endorsements he never had. He ditched an important public forum to address a conference of telecommunications providers. Then, in a scheme involving a San Miguel County elections official, Block made a few thousand dollars disappear from the public campaign money provided to him by the state. He was fined for it [news, Aug. 20, 2008: "Audit Right There"]. Just as Attorney General Gary King initiated a criminal investigation, Block reported a robbery at his house in which, conveniently, his campaign records were stolen.
Voters elected him anyway. Block and his father now face a slew of felony charges, including embezzlement and tampering with evidence.
This summer, Block's life began to unravel again with another series of absurd, but completely plausible, allegations of malfeasance. Of them, the most disgusting is evidence indicating Block may have improperly charged thousands of dollars to government credit cards.
In 2008, a handful of Democrats—Santa Fe's Charlotte Roybal, Bernie Logue Y Perea and Leslie Lakind—predicted this would happen. They openly campaigned for Green Party candidate Rick Lass, a government reform activist, but, between Block's name, Barack Obama's momentum and the option to check a box to vote a straight party ticket, Block cruised to victory.
Meanwhile, those with the most sway kept quiet. Gov. Bill Richardson conceded that Block had "trust issues," but declined to endorse either candidate. Ben Ray Luján, then a Congressional candidate whose seat on the PRC Block would inherit, also declined to endorse. Democratic scenesters, who have long moved on, now say they kept waiting for the trickle of bad news to stop, but by the time the drips added up to a lake of problems, it was too late to act. The issue was toxic. There was also a patch of Block loyalists in Española who no one wanted to alienate, plus the Democratic Party rules that forbade its leadership from supporting outside candidates.
I still wonder:
What if Luján—who had political capital to burn—had called for Block to drop out? What if he'd said, "We would be betraying our citizens if we stood by and let this guy near public money," and led the charge?
The Block saga's impact on 2012 will depend largely on whether the Legislature impeaches Block and how far the criminal case will have progressed by election season. My guess is Block will fade into a joke that insiders toss around as proof of how much crap a politician can get away with before it catches up with him.
Here's what I predict: Somewhere in New Mexico, right now, a new candidate is emerging who is as bad as Block or worse. The question is whether, this time, his party will publicly call him out. If it doesn't, the party can't say no one saw it coming.

IRVING, Texas (AP) -- A Dallas Cowboys official says the team is looking to improve how it deals with drunken driving in the wake of two high-profile player arrests.
Player development consultant Calvin Hill said in a statement Monday that the team understands the dangers of drunken driving, especially since it had "recently experienced the most tragic of circumstances regarding this issue."
Defensive lineman Jay Ratliff was arrested last week in Grapevine after sideswiping a semitrailer truck. His blood-alcohol level was measured at twice the legal limit.
That came a month after fellow Cowboy Josh Brent was indicted on an intoxicated manslaughter charge in a crash that killed practice squad player Jerry Brown.
Hill says the Cowboys have been in contact with Ratliff about his arrest and "will monitor the legal process."

UFOs & Alien Contact: Two Centuries of Mystery
Prometheus Books, 1998 - Body, Mind & Spirit - 408 pages
The power of imagination, group psychology, and the concept of "fantasy prone personalities," are explored by Bartholomew and Howard as they probe the history of how UFO stories are spread. The impact of "collective delusion" enhanced by the media can be dangerous, leaving great pain and tragedy in its wake. Included are detailed descriptions of the United States airship flap of 1896-97; the imaginary sightings of Thomas Edison's "electric star" of the late 1800s; Canada's phantom balloon wave of 1896-97; the New Zealand zeppelin scare of 1909; the British UFO panic of 1912-13; phantom German air raids and spy missions over Canada, New York, Delaware, New Hampshire, and Africa during World War I; Sweden's ghost rocket crisis of 1946. These are all reports of UFOs before the famed Roswell incident and the emergence of flying saucers since 1947.
The authors examine collective behavior, fallible human perception, deviance, religion, popular culture, history, the role of the media, and relationships to the paranormal. From alien contact with humans to well-organized cults, UFOs and Alien Contact is gripping, humorous, and at times horrifying.

So a music store nearby has this (used) Yamaha P50m piano module for practically nothing, sitting unwanted in a corner. Is it worth bothering with, or does every modern rompler do an equally good job or better nowadays? Do the extras like, say, the selectable velocity curves add anything?
The main attraction is having a good acoustic piano sound, but I suppose having the Rhodes/CP80/DX7/etc patches can't hurt.
I'm not an actual pianist, and don't need a dedicated piano, but I'm thinking something like this module could be an option for those special occasions. (I will admit that occasions that call for "ADHD kid in music class" are rare.)
It got a decent review ... 17 years ago:

GRANTS PASS, Ore. — Police say in court records that a man charged in the beating death of a priest in the Northern California city of Eureka tried to blow up the rectory by turning on the gas from the stove and leaving behind a lit cigar.
However, the affidavit obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press said the cigar went out.
The affidavit was filed in support of a warrant to arrest 44-year-old Gary Lee Bullock last week on murder, arson, torture and other charges.
Another priest found the Rev. Eric Freed dead on New Year's Day after he failed to appear for morning Mass at St. Bernard Catholic Church.
The affidavit says the body was wrapped in bedclothes dampened by liquor in another failed attempt to start a fire.

The granddaddy of all standardized tests � the venerable SAT � has taken its lumps in recent years. Once the standard for college admission across the land and a longtime measuring stick of college prep education in U.S. high schools, now comes word that universities are de-emphasizing the SAT.
That�s right, de-emphasizing.
Some might say it�s merely coincidental that institutions of higher learning are making this move at a time when SAT scores are at a 40-year low, especially in the reading category. In fact, the decline over the decades has been significant. For example, the average reading (verbal) score is down 34 points since 1972. And in North Carolina, scores continued to decline according to figures for 2012. Alamance County and state students still trail their counterparts nationally.
So maybe de-emphasizing the SAT may be a good thing.
The original intent of the SAT (which used to stand for Scholastic Aptitude Test but now is the official name of the exam) was to give talented students a crack at admission to top universities by showing their inherent smarts even if they�d never had the advantages of attending a prestigious Eastern prep school. Over the years, though, it has become a thriving industry. The test�s owner, the College Board, also puts out the PSAT, or preliminary SAT, and recently started up a pre-pre-SAT for middle school, as well as selling an SAT study guide and online course for a combined price of $89.99. Other companies have raised the ante by offering prep courses for the SAT and its increasingly popular rival, the ACT, that cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Clearly, the college entrance exams created for middle-class and impoverished students give the edge to affluent teenagers. At the same time, studies have found that those tests aren�t stronger predictors of a student�s success in college than grades, class rank or a record of rigorous courses. For this reason and others, an increasing number of colleges have made the SAT an optional part of the application process.
Most of them will consider SAT or ACT scores if an applicant sends them, but don�t require them. Some allow students to pick from a menu of information they would like to submit, including scores on Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate tests. Wake Forest is among the schools with more flexible admissions policies, according to FairTest, a nonprofit organization that opposes what it sees as overuse of standardized tests.
Let�s be clear: The SAT and ACT do have a useful role in college admissions. They are valid predictors of success, along with other factors, and can be especially helpful in detecting bright students whose grades don�t reflect their potential. Conversely, though, many great students score poorly on standardized tests, especially if they lack the financial means for extensive test-prep courses and tutors.
Admission to college has escalated into an arms race, with too many families relying on rankings that might not give them meaningful information about particular schools, and spending whatever it takes to give their children an advantage. In this scenario, entrance exams had been given disproportionate influence. We�re glad to see a movement toward a system that, without sacrificing high standards, brings flexibility into the college admissions process.

HOUSTON, Texas – Defender Hunter Freeman scored the only goal of the game in the 86th minute as the Houston Dynamo earned a 1-0 win over the New England Revolution on Sunday night at Robertson Stadium.
Freeman's goal concluded a bizarre sequence in which Cam Weaver's initial header struck the crossbar only to bounce straight up into the air and fall directly on the goal line, where Freeman was on hand to bundle the ball into the net. It ruined an otherwise stellar night for Revolution goalkeeper Matt Reis, who made seven saves upon his return to the lineup.
The victory helped the Dynamo (2-1-2, 8 pts.) leapfrog the Revolution (1-2-3, 6 pts.) into a tie for second place in the Eastern Conference. It was the Revs' second straight shutout loss after suffering their first setback of the season last weekend against Real Salt Lake.
Revolution captain Shalrie Joseph and central midfield partner Pat Phelan were unavailable while serving one-game suspensions for red cards received last weekend against RSL, while left back Didier Domi (L hamstring strain) missed out because of injury. Meanwhile, Reis resumed his starting duties after missing two games with a right adductor strain, while rookie A.J. Soares returned from suspension to partner Franco Coria in central defense.
In response to the circumstances, head coach Steve Nicol trotted out a makeshift 4-3-3 lineup at Robertson Stadium. Usual center back Darrius Barnes started at left back, the versatile Chris Tierney partnered Stephen McCarthy and Zak Boggs in midfield, and Danish forward Rajko Lekic made his MLS debut alongside Marko Perovic and Zack Schilawski.
Houston almost opened the scoring in just the fourth minute, with the Dynamo's attack predictably running through Brad Davis down the left wing. Davis took a powerful long-range shot which Reis saved, but the rebound spilled to Will Bruin 12 yards from goal. The rookie's low effort beat Reis, but Soares was positioned on the line to make a lunging clearance.
Bruin threatened again in the 12th minute when he wriggled free to meet Davis' corner kick, but he directed his header over the bar from six yards out. Five minutes later the former Indiana forward was at it again, pushing another header wide from close range after Weaver's left-wing cross.
The pressure continued to mount and Reis was called upon to make a fine reaction save on Bobby Boswell's free header in the 22nd minute.
After weathering the early storm – Houston fired 13 shots in the opening 45 minutes – the Revs slowly worked themselves into the action as the game progressed, eventually reaching the halftime break scoreless.
But just as the hosts pressed early in the first half, they did so again in the early stages of the second half. Boswell threatened twice in the 57th and 58th minutes, first seeing his rolling effort cleared off the line by Schilawski – although Dynamo players claimed the ball crossed the line – before hitting the right post just one minute later.
Bruin continued his quest for a goal when he was put through in the 73rd minute, but Reis charged off his line to make a leg save.
Coria almost caught Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall napping in the 76th minute, but his audacious effort from well inside his own half drifted harmlessly over the bar.
Houston finally made the breakthrough with less than five minutes remaining. Davis' corner kick was met well by Weaver, whose header ricocheted off the crossbar and high into the air. As the ball came down, Freeman jostled with Reis and eventually pushed the ball over the line to hand the Dynamo all three points.
Next up for the Revs is a home date with Sporting Kansas City on Saturday, April 23. Kickoff from Gillette Stadium is set for 7:30 p.m. ET.

- Chris Tierney made his first start in the central midfield since May 29, 2010, when he lined up next to Shalrie Joseph in a four-man midfield
- Rajko Lekic made his MLS and Revolution debut tonight … he signed with the club on Friday, April 8, and the club received his international transfer certificate late this week making him available for selection tonight
- Ryan Cochrane made his first appearance against Houston when he checked into the game in the 79th minute … the Revs acquired Cochrane from the Dynamo in the Stage Two of the 2010 Re-Entry Process
- This was the team's second game without being shown a caution or a red card … the team was also cardless in the season opener on March 20 at LA
- Tonight's game was the team's third in which it recorded a single-digit shot total
- Shalrie Joseph's team-leading 25-game consecutive appearance streak was snapped as he was forced to sit out tonight's game … Zack Schilawski, with a nine-game streak dating back to the 28th game of the 2010 season, is the team's new current leader

Krumbach is an Austrian market town with a population of about one thousand—it has a handsome eleventh-century castle and, as of this year, seven of the most arresting bus stops in the world. As part of a new project, BUS:STOP, seven international architects have designed Buswartehüsle—small shelters—"in a dialogue with the people, landscape, and local culture, building upon the traditions of skilled trade in the area."
Sou Fujimoto calls his stop, pictured above, "a transparent forest of columns," and emphasizes its variousness as a public space: "Both bus passengers and non–bus users can use this bus stop as a meeting point," he writes, and though maybe no human alive has ever actively identified as a "non–bus user," his larger point rings true: "Everyone may climb the tower-like bus stop to enjoy panoramic views of Krumbach."
The other contributing architects hail from Belgium, Chile, Russia, Norway, Spain, and China, and given the impressive designs they've brought, it's hard to fault Krumbach's official culture site for a bit of characteristically Teutonic rhetoric: "People from the Bregenzerwald are generally seen as proud of their roots and open to new ideas. This has shaped our region down to the present day: the collaboration between humankind and nature, tradition and modernism, handcraft and the culture of building."
DesignBoom has a gallery of photographs worth viewing in full. One might object to the primacy of form over function here. It's hard to picture someone comfortably waiting at Fujimoto's shelter, for instance, especially if it's raining. But none of these stops are entirely without utility: they are all, however tenuously, places where you go to catch a bus. I've tried in vain to find statistics on public transit in Krumbach—how many of its thousand citizens use the bus system, anyway?—but even if these shelters are seldom used, it's still a pleasure to imagine them out there, flecking the Austrian countryside. Greyhound: take notes.

Max Wittek is ready for the moment. That's what those closest to USC's backup quarterback say as Wittek prepares for the biggest game of his life.
Wittek, a redshirt freshman, will start in place of injured Matt Barkley against top-ranked Notre Dame on Saturday at the Coliseum.
It's an opportunity Wittek has prepared for since he moved from Connecticut to Orange County to play at Santa Ana Mater Dei High, the same school that sent Barkley and Heisman Trophy winner Matt Leinart to USC.
"He's so competitive and also very quietly confident," Mater Dei Coach Bruce Rollinson said Monday. "I see him throwing caution to the wind and having a ball out there."

In the February 22, 1999 issue of The New Republic, Martha Nussbaum, Ernst Freund Distinguished Service Professor of Law and Ethics at The University of Chicago, wrote an article about Judith Butler entitled The Professor of Parody, in which she took Butler to task for thinking and writing about the anti-feminist political constraints imposed by ordinary language instead of concerning herself with the real lives of actual women. In the course of the article, Nussbaum quotes Butler's winning entry in the Bad Writing Contest and purports to rewrite it in what she presumably considers good writing.
Butler's original was drawn from "Further Reflections on the Conversations of Our Time," an article in the scholarly journal Diacritics (1997)
The move from a structuralist account in which capital is understood to structure social relations in relatively homologous ways to a view of hegemony in which power relations are subject to repetition, convergence, and rearticulation brought the question of temporality into the thinking of structure, and marked a shift from a form of Althusserian theory that takes structural totalities as theoretical objects to one in which the insights into the contingent possibility of structure inaugurate a renewed conception of hegemony as bound up with the contingent sites and strategies of the rearticulation of power.
Nussbaum's rewrite:
Marxist accounts, focusing on capital as the central force structuring social relations, depicted the operations of that force as everywhere uniform. By contrast, Althusserian accounts, focusing on power, see the operations of that force as variegated and as shifting over time.
Nussbaum comments: [Butler] "prefers a verbosity that causes the reader to expend so much effort in deciphering her prose that little energy is left for assessing the truth of the claims."
Assuming without deciding that the rewrite is better writing than the original, a little attention to Nussbaum's version reveals that it both trivializes and misstates Butler's point. For starters, Nussbaum identifies as Butler's main point an assertion about views of how capital structures social relations that Butler puts in a subordinate clause on the way to saying something else. Nussbaum's "clarification" is of the Fox News variety--it can be understood without effort but conceals its claims and leaves us without the means to assess their truth.
I think Nussbaum's misinterpretation of Butler is more than confusion about Althusser. (I am not well-read enough to opine on whether Butler has correctly characterized two strains of Althusserian thought, or on whether Nussbaum correctly identified one of those strains but not the other as "Marxist".) Butler's writing in the celebrated passage, bad or not, is difficult. Nussbaum clearly does not care what Butler is saying and so does not take the time and energy to be sure that her paraphrase is accurate. Moreover, Nussbaum knows that her easy version will supplant the difficult original, and that few if any readers of The New Republic (where Nussbaum's version was published) will bother to compare the two. This is why Nussbaum's gloss, like Fox News, is so pernicious.
Further, Nussbaum's statement impedes understanding of Butler's point: for example, Nussbaum refers to capital as a "force structuring social relations," once thought to be "everywhere uniform" in its "operations." But this description of capital as an operating force imports into what Nussbaum calls the "Marxist" view the temporality that Butler says is an insight resulting from the newer view of hegemony. Nussbaum's use of the word "force" rather than, say, framework, or "crystalline order" (Julie Rivkin and Michael Ryan, Literary Theory: An Anthology), obliterates much of the distinction Butler is making.
A reader turning to Nussbaum for help in understanding Butler would come away more bewildered than ever. A reader relying entirely on Nussbaum (or an extended gloss on Butler of the same quality) to find out what Butler had to say would conclude that Butler's ideas were superficial and banal when, in fact, the ideas expressed were Nussbaum's, if anyone's. For an extended example of this phenomenon see Derrida's reception in the US. My own appreciation of Derrida was derailed for several years by my reliance on secondary clarifiers, both well-intentioned and malevolent.
Maybe Butler's ideas are banal (or maybe not), and maybe her writing is bad (or maybe not), but Nussbaum's rewrite proves neither. Instead, it demonstrates the danger and difficulty of paraphrase.
None of this even addresses Butler's contention in Excitable Speech that a demand for "ordinary language" can be and often is a form of censorship. This censorship can take several forms: there is the well-known preference in the mainstream media for sound bites over careful explanations, effectively distorting discourse and silencing the non-obvious. There is the refusal to acknowledge that new ways of thinking are worthy of consideration by established academic disciplines: as Nussbaum smugly remarks of Butler, "Trained as a philosopher, she is frequently seen (more by people in literature than by philosophers) as a major thinker about gender, power, and the body" (emphasis added). "[O]ne should ask whether it [writing like Butler's] belongs to the philosophical tradition at all." Any student of Continental philosophy who has looked for a home in a US philosophy department understands the censorious nature of that observation.
Another kind of censorship is demonstrated in Nussbaum's TNR article where, in addition to ridiculing Butler's prose, she labels Buter a "hip defeatist" for writing and thinking rather than acting. Lamenting the supposed passage of the good old days when feminists cared about the lives of real women, Nussbaum complained:
Something more insidious than provincialism has come to prominence in the American academy. It is the virtually complete turning from the material side of life, toward a type of verbal and symbolic politics that makes only the flimsiest of connections with the real situation of real women. Feminist thinkers of the new symbolic type would appear to believe that the way to do feminist politics is to use words in a subversive way, in academic publications of lofty obscurity and disdainful abstractness. These symbolic gestures, it is believed, are themselves a form of political resistance; and so one need not engage with messy things such as legislatures and movements in order to act daringly.My own understanding of the idea being dismissed here is that efforts to make feminism seem reasonable in established academic or "common sense" terms are doomed ultimately to failure because feminism does not "make sense" in the patriarchal tradition dominating our language and thought. This theoretical conclusion does not counsel inactivity; instead, it cautions feminists not to get drawn into unwinnable arguments to try to convince others they are right before taking action. If, indeed, the linguistic and intellectual cards are stacked against feminist ideas (which I'm inclined to believe but Nussbaum, an Aristotelian, may not be), then it is a waste of time to argue with The Man on his own terms (the Master's tools, etc.) In this sense, Butler's intellectualizing is no more defeatist than Nussbaum's; maybe less so in that Butler at least appreciates the irony of her own position.

CINCINNATI (AP) -- A man who was freed from prison after spending 21 years on Ohio's death row because of a botched prosecution can't pursue his federal lawsuit against the county prosecutor's office, an appeals court ruled Thursday.
A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati ruled that Joe D'Ambrosio's lawsuit amounts to a failed attempt to hold Cuyahoga County accountable for actions by individuals.
"There is no question that the individual prosecutors involved in D'Ambrosio's case violated rights secured to him by the Constitution," the panel ruled, but the lawsuit failed to establish that their actions were part of a larger pattern of corruption at the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office in Cleveland.
D'Ambrosio, 52, was imprisoned after his conviction of murder in the 1988 death of 19-year-old Tony Klann, whose body was found in a creek at a Cleveland park.
He was released in 2010 when a federal judge ruled that prosecutors failed to provide evidence that could have exonerated him, including that the more likely suspect in the killing was a man who had been accused of raping Klann's roommate and against whom Klann had agreed to testify.
D'Ambrosio's attorney, David Mills, said Thursday his client was disappointed but has come to take setbacks in stride.
"This guy was nearly executed. He's seen much darker places than this," Mills said. "And every time we have a setback like this, even though it's as big as it is today, we look at it and we say, 'What can we do next?'"
Mills said he would likely pursue a hearing of the case by the full court and, if that fails, would take the case to the U.S. Supreme Court.
He acknowledged that the lawsuit by itself didn't prove widespread violations by the prosecutor's office but said those details would have come out at trial.
"When there's smoke, there can be fire. And there's a lot of smoke here, and we just need to crack the door and see," Mills said. "It seems to me the court is saying, 'We're not going to let you peek behind the door and let you see what was going on in that office because you don't have enough proof of the extent of what was happening.' It's a Catch-22."
Edmund Searby, the Cleveland attorney who represents the county, said the 6th Circuit's decision shows the allegations were without merit.
"(D'Ambrosio) never alleged any facts that would support a pattern or custom of withholding exculpatory evidence," Searby said. "The pattern doesn't exist and he couldn't prove it."
D'Ambrosio's lawsuit seeks damages of at least $1 million. But D'Ambrosio said in a statement through his attorney that "it was never about the money ... It's about holding them responsible for the injustice they did to me."
The lead prosecutor in D'Ambrosio's case, Carmen Marino, retired from the prosecutor's office in 2002 in good standing.
In a January 2013 ruling dismissing D'Ambrosio's claims against Marino and the county, federal Judge Dan Polster said that Marino "trampled upon D'Ambrosio's constitutional rights," but that he couldn't be sued because the justice system is dependent on prosecutorial immunity.
Marino could not be reached for comment Thursday, but told The Associated Press in 2006 -- shortly after a federal judge first found that he had withheld evidence in D'Ambrosio's case -- that he was proud of his record and he has never lied in court or concealed evidence from anyone.
D'Ambrosio also has a case pending in the Ohio Court of Claims in Columbus, seeking reimbursement for wrongful imprisonment. If it's successful, he stands to win more than $1 million.

Beyond the Pleasure Principle
Sigmund Freud
Beyond the Pleasure Principle.
years of intensive work have brought about a complete change in the more immediate aims of psycho-analytic technique. At first the endeavours of the analytic physician were confined to divining the unconscious of which his patient was unaware, effecting a synthesis of its various components and communicating it at the right time. Psychoanalysis was above all an art of interpretation. Since the therapeutic task was not thereby accomplished, the next aim was to compel the patient to confirm the reconstruction through his own memory. In this endeavour the chief emphasis was on the resistances of the patient; the art now lay in unveiling these as soon as possible, in calling the patients attention to them, and by human influencehere came in suggestion acting as transferenceteaching him to abandon the resistances.
It then became increasingly clear, however, that the aim in view, the bringing into consciousness of the unconscious, was not fully attainable by this method either. The patient cannot recall all of what lies repressed, perhaps not even the essential part of it, and so gains no conviction that the conclusion presented to him is correct. He is obliged rather to
as a current experience what is repressed, instead of, as the physician would prefer to see him do,
it as a fragment of the past.
This reproduction appearing with unwelcome fidelity always contains a fragment of the infantile sex-life, therefore of the Oedipus complex and its off-shoots, and is played regularly in the sphere of transference, i. e. the relationship to the physician. When this point in the treatment is reached, it may be said that the earlier neurosis is now replaced by a fresh one, viz. the transference-neurosis. The physician makes it his concern to limit the scope of this transference-neurosis as much as he can, to force into memory as much as possible, and to leave as little as possible to repetition. The relation established between memory and reproduction is different for every case. As a rule the physician cannot spare the patient this phase of the cure; he must let him live through a certain fragment of his forgotten life, and has to see to it that some measure of ascendency remains, in the light of which the apparent reality is always recognised as a reflection of a forgotten past. If this is successfully accomplished then conviction on the part of the patient is attained, and with it the therapeutic result that depends on it.
In order to render more comprehensible this repetition-compulsion which appears in the psychoanalytic treatment of neurotics, we must above all get entirely rid of the erroneous idea that in this struggle with resistances we are concerned with any resistance on the part of the unconscious. The unconscious, i. e. the repressed material, offers no resistance whatever to the curative efforts; indeed it has no other aim than to force its way through the pressure weighing on it, either to consciousness or to discharge by means of some real action. The resistance in the treatment proceeds from the same higher levels and systems in the psychic life that in their time brought about the repression. But since the motives of the resistances, and indeed the resistances themselves, are found in the process of the treatment to be unconscious, we are well advised to amend an inadequacy in our mode of expression. We escape ambiguity if we contrast not the conscious and the unconscious, but the coherent ego and the repressed. Much in the ego is certainly unconscious itself, just what may be called the kernel of the ego; only a part of it comes under the category of preconscious. After thus replacing a purely descriptive method of expression by a systematic or dynamic one, we may say that the resistance on the part of the analysed person proceeds from his ego, and then we at once see that the repetition-compulsion must be ascribed to the repressed element in the unconscious. It probably could not find expression till the work of the treatment coming to meet it had loosened the repression.
There is no doubt that the resistance of the conscious and preconscious ego subserves the pleasure-principle; it is trying to avoid the pain that would be aroused by the release of the repressed material, and our efforts are directed to effecting an entry for such painful feeling by an appeal to the reality-principle. In what relation to the pleasure-principle then does the repetition-compulsion stand, that which expresses the force of what is repressed? It is plain that most of what is revived by the repetition-compulsion cannot but bring discomfort to the ego, for it promotes the bringing to light of the activities of repressed impulses; but that is a discomfort we have already taken into account and without subversion of the pleasure-principle, since it is pain in respect of one system and at the same time satisfaction for the other. The new and remarkable fact, however, that we have now to describe is that the repetition-compulsion also revives experiences of the past that contain no potentiality of pleasure, and which could at no time have been satisfactions, even of impulses since repressed.
The efflorescence of infantile sex-life was, by reason of the irreconcilability of its wishes with reality and the inadequacy of the childhood stage of development reached, destined to pass away. It perished in most painful circumstances and with feelings of a deeply distressing nature. Loss and failure in the sphere of the affections left behind on the ego-feeling marks of injury comparable to a narcissistic scar, which, according to my experience and the exposition given by Marcinowski,
yields the most important contribution to the inferiority complex common among neurotics. The sex-quest to which the physical development of the child set limits could be brought to no satisfying conclusion; hence the plaint in later life: I cant do anything, I am never successful. The bonds of tenderness linking the child more especially to the parent of the opposite sex succumbed to disappointment, to the vain expectation of satisfaction, and to the jealousy aroused by the birth of a new child, unmistakable proof as it is of the faithlessness of the loved parent; the childs attempt, undertaken with tragic seriousness, to produce another such child himself met with humiliating failure; while the partial withdrawal of the tenderness lavished on the little one, the more exacting demands of discipline and education, severe words and an occasional punishment finally revealed to him the whole extent of the disdain which is his portion. Some few regularly recurring types are to be found, according to the way in which the typical love of this period was brought to an end.
All these undesired happenings and painful affective situations are repeated by neurotics in the transference stage and re-animated with much ingenuity. They struggle to break off the unfinished treatment, they know how to re-create the feeling of being disdained, how to force the physician to adopt brusque speech and a chilling manner towards them, they find suitable objects for their jealousy, they substitute for the ardently desired child of early days the promise of some great gift which becomes as little real as that was. Nothing of all this could ever have afforded any pleasure; one would suppose it ought to bring somewhat less pain if revealed as memory rather than if lived through as a new experience. It is a question naturally of the action of impulses that should lead to satisfaction, but the experience that instead of this they even then brought pain has borne no result. The act is repeated in spite of everything; a powerful compulsion insists on it.
That which psycho-analysis reveals in the transference phenomena with neurotics can also be observed in the life of normal persons. It here gives the impression of a pursuing fate, a daemonic trait in their destiny, and psycho-analysis has from the outset regarded such a life history as in a large measure self-imposed and determined by infantile influences. The compulsion which thereby finds expression is in no way different from the repetition-compulsion of neurotics, even though such persons have never shown signs of a neurotic conflict resulting in symptoms. Thus one knows people with whom every human relationship ends in the same way: benefactors whose protégés, however different they may otherwise have been, invariably after a time desert them in ill-will, so that they are apparently condemned to drain to the dregs all the bitterness of ingratitude; men with whom every friendship ends in the friends treachery; others who indefinitely often in their lives invest some other person with authority either in their own eyes or generally, and themselves overthrow such authority after a given time, only to replace it by a new one; lovers whose tender relationships with women each and all run through the same phases and come to the same end, and so on. We are less astonished at this endless repetition of the same if there is involved a question of active behaviour on the part of the person concerned, and if we detect in his character an unalterable trait which must always manifest itself in the repetition of identical experiences. Far more striking are those cases where the person seems to be experiencing something passively, without exerting any influence of his own, and yet always meets with the same fate over and over again. One may recall, for example, the story of the woman who married three men in succession, each of whom fell ill after a short time and whom she had to nurse till their death.
Tasso gives a singularly affecting poetical portrayal of such a trend of fate in the romantic epic: Gerusalemme liberata. The hero, Tancred, has unwittingly slain Clorinda, the maiden he loved, who fought with him disguised in the armour of an enemy knight. After her burial he penetrates into the mysterious enchanted wood, the bane of the army of the crusaders. Here he hews down a tall tree with his sword, but from the gash in the trunk blood streams forth and the voice of Clorinda whose soul is imprisoned in the tree cries out to him in reproach that he has once more wrought a baleful deed on his beloved.
In the light of such observations as these, drawn from the behaviour during transference and from the fate of human beings, we may venture to make the assumption that there really exists in psychic life a repetition-compulsion, which goes beyond the pleasure-principle. We shall now also feel disposed to relate to this compelling force the dreams of shock-patients and the play-impulse in children. We must of course remind ourselves that only in rare cases can we recognise the workings of this repetition-compulsion in a pure form, without the co-operation of other motives. As regards childrens play we have already pointed out what other interpretations its origin permits. The repetition-compulsion and direct pleasurable satisfaction of impulse seem there to be inextricably intertwined. The transference phenomena obviously subserve the purpose of the resistance made by the ego persisting in its repression: the repetition-compulsion is, as it were, called to the aid of the ego, which is resolved to hold fast to the pleasure-principle. In what one might call the destiny compulsion much appears capable of rational explanation, so that no need is felt to establish a new and mysterious impulse. The least suspicious case is perhaps that of the shock-dream, but on closer examination it must be admitted that in the other examples too the state of affairs is not completely explained by the operation of the motives known to us. There remains enough over to justify the assumption of a repetition-compulsion, and this seems to us more primitive, more elementary, more instinctive than the pleasure-principle which is displaced by it. But if there is such a repetition-compulsion in psychic life, we should naturally like to know with what function it corresponds, under what conditions it may appear, and in what relation it stands to the pleasure-principle, to which we have heretofore ascribed the domination over the course of the processes of excitation in the psychic life.

I've been holding onto this for a long time and have decided to part with it. This is a extremely rare piece of Masters of the universe history that I got from Jason from Hollywood heroes 4 years ago. It's a test proof poster of the Megator packaging art for the U.S market but as we all know was exclusive to Italy. It's in amazing condition bright colours and is ready for framing!

Mennegh airbase, also known as Menagh or Minakh was captured on the 5th of August 2013 by the Free Syrian Army, the Islamic State and Syrian Islamic Liberation Front, most notably Liwa al-Fatah and Jaish Muhajereen.
The base had been under siege for over a year. The defenders only holding out due Syrian Arab Air Force (SyAAF) Mi-8/17s resupplying the base by air. The days of the defenders were counted when ATGMs arrived and were used to destroy the tanks inside the base.
Mennegh was home to the 4 Flying Training school operating Mi-8 Hip-Bs and an unknown squadron with Mi-8 Hip Bs. The runway is 4.773 feet long, too short for fighter and cargo planes to take off and land. All the helicopters were already inoperational for a long time. Some survive in a relatively intact condition while others are completely wrecked.
Some of the more lucky Mi-8s:
The airbase was also full of tanks. Some intact and thus captured, but most fell victim to the ATGMs fired in the past months.

Using r4.
Instead of following the installation instructions, I just made a single ext3 partition, with a /boot directory containing the usual files needed for Qi to boot.
The time and date are off. I opened a terminal and did "dpkg-reconfigure tzdata". Then set the UTC time with "date -u -s".
Instructions for http://trac.hackable1.org/trac/wiki/tips worked, except that the USA T-Mobile provider is set up to use wap instead of real internet. So I edited the provider file to say internet2.voicestream.com instead of wap.
I also edited the chap-secrets file -- was this necessary? It kept trying to use chap auth, but I think there might be another reason for this. I'll do a clean test.
It doesn't use the muxer by default, which means that while you are on GPRS, calls and SMS won't get through. This can be changed by switching the MUX option to yes in /usr/bin/x and /usr/bin/p.
Muxer didn't work well for me at all. Incoming calls didn't get through. Trying this:
Using muxer
* change MUX=no to MUX=yes in /usr/bin/p and /usr/bin/x * change delay from 5 to 10 in /usr/bin/x (lines 65 & 69) * in /etc/ppp/peers/gprs : o line 36 : comment the /dev/ttySAC0 option o line 42 : uncomment the updetach option o line 43 : comment the nodetach option

(LiPo Ching/Bay Area News Group)
SAN JOSE — In a strong public rebuke, legislators lashed out Friday at San Jose State leaders in a special hearing on campus, decrying what they called an atmosphere of acceptance of bullying and aggressive behavior.
The special panel investigating campus culture at public universities chided San Jose State leaders and housing officials for their delayed response to the alleged tormenting of a black freshman by his white roommates in a case that generated national outrage and led to misdemeanor hate crime charges.
"For months, these atrocities were kept secret, which I find almost impossible to believe," said Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San Francisco.
Legislators questioned San Jose State leaders about a culture that made students comfortable in bullying a fellow student and kept others from coming forward. The three-hour hearing came a day after the victim filed a $5 million claim against the university, blaming the dorm adviser and school officials for ignoring "clear" warning signs of the abuse.
"He was in an environment of seven other people and none of them said a mumbling word …" said Assemblywoman Shirley Weber, D-San Diego, chairwoman of the Select Committee on Campus Climate. "That is a serious cultural problem for students to accept this as normal behavior — not just the folks who perpetuated the crimes, but those who witnessed it."
Pushed for a response, a top San Jose State administrator acknowledged a climate of "micro-aggressions," such as offensive jokes and insensitive class discussions, that have a corrosive effect.
"I hear them every day," said Bill Nance, the campus vice president for student affairs.
Committee members also asked pointed questions about why school President Mo Qayoumi was not told sooner about the dorm-room incidents.
The question of speaking up, of recognizing a situation, was also on the mind of the San Jose State's own panel looking into the campus climate.
The claim filed Thursday revealed that in a formal roommate behavior agreement that a dorm adviser oversaw, freshman Donald Williams Jr. referred to the bike lock incident as "a lock of shame." That, said former Judge LaDoris Cordell, reinforced her panel's concern that more and better-trained advisers are needed.
After Friday's hearing, legislators also pointed out their concerns with school leaders. What is communicated to a campus leader reflects a university's priorities, Weber said after the hearing. "Surely, if I were president of this campus, I should be aware of something as bad as that," she said. "They say they talk all the time, so the question is, what are you talking about?"
Qayoumi, who was present, gave a brief welcome but didn't have to answer questions; Nance did.
"We were shocked when it happened," Nance said. "It's so counter to the values that we have, the approaches that we take, the work that we do with students."
One student who testified Friday, Latu Tapaatoutai, said she too often saw signs of racism and bias. "I do not think San Jose State, at this moment, is a safe place for students of color," she said. She was among the few dozen people at the hearing, the first of four around the state.
The legislators came to campus a day after Williams filed his claim alleging that the university ignored a sign that "a potentially explosive and dangerous situation was developing in Room 704."
State lawmakers formed the Select Committee on Campus Climate in January in response to the San Jose State case. Four white freshmen were accused of bullying Williams, barricading him in his room and snapping the lock around his neck.
Campus climate, a term that describes attitudes and behaviors — typically as they relate to ethnicity and race, religion and sexual orientation — has become a pressing issue on college campuses.
San Jose State set up its task force on racial discrimination after the outcry over the alleged hate crime.
Cordell and other task force members are calling for more resident advisers in dorms; more diversity training for employees and students; a mobile app for reporting hate crimes; a more diverse faculty and other changes.
On Friday, Cordell said the task force was unaware until the claim was filed that Williams himself had tried to draw attention to the hazing in the "Roommate Living Agreement."
It is not uncommon for RAs to meet with roommates to create guidelines for living together, Cordell said, especially if they have had difficulty getting along.
"That was his way of crying out," said Cordell, who also is San Jose's independent police auditor. "Why didn't someone on the housing staff ask, 'What does this mean?'"

Mexican food really evolved after the Spanish colonization of the Americas. Spaniards brought unique food items unheard of by the Mesoamerican natives at the time, such as vinegars, cheeses, wines, lamb and beef. These new flavors mixed with the natural, local ingredients already being cooked with, and made for a new cuisine that would evolve over the years to what we know as Mexican food today.
We asked our team what some of their favorite dishes were. At the top of list were shredded pork tamales, chili rellenos, chicken enchiladas, and, of course, salsa. But having the right supplies is essential for getting things right. So, without further ado, here are a few of our Mexican food restaurant supplies.
