A Holiday Tradition in Santa Fe
By : Nancy Zimmerman
The Christmas Eve candlelit Farolito Walk brings Santa Fe residents and visitors together in a unique expression of seasonal cheer.
Befitting of a city whose name means holy faith, Santa Fe is at its most magical during the Christmas season. A favorite among its many distinctive celebrations is the Christmas Eve Farolito Walk along Canyon Road. This candlelit stroll through the towns historic district at dusk brings Santa Fe residents and visitors together in a unique expression of seasonal cheer.
, or little lanterns, are votive candles anchored in sand inside small brown paper bags that are set along the flat roofs and adobe walls throughout the city. These are said to light the path for baby Jesus to find his way to homes and businesses and infuse them with the Christmas spirit. They pop up all over town in December throughout New Mexicothough they go by luminarias in Albuquerque and points south.
No one remembers exactly when the Canyon Road ritual first began, but most people believe it was initiated sometime in the 1970s, when residents in the area invited friends from around town to stroll through their centuries-old neighborhood at sundown to enjoy the simple beauty of hundreds of candles lining the streets and homes in an atmosphere of reverence and fellowship. The event has changed little over the decades. Some homeowners build festival bonfires of piñon wood to help participants ward off the winter chill. Others extend the spontaneous hospitality for which Santa Fe is known by inviting those walking by into their homes for a warm drink, a
(New Mexicos official state cookie) and a heartfelt exchange of holiday wishes.
In recent years, Canyon Roads art galleries have joined in the celebration, offering displays of Christmas lights, music performances and refreshments; but the true spirit of the Farolito Walk remains the soft glow of candlelight, the camaraderie of carolers and the aroma of piñon fires filling the air.
Mayor David Coss, a native of Santa Fe, has fond memories of joining the walk over the years, and he encourages visitors to do the same. The Farolito Walk highlights our culture and tradition, he says. Its a beautiful gathering of friends, neighbors and guests. So dress warmly and join us for some hot chocolate and carols at this wonderful Christmas event!

Will non-premium members ever be able to earn XP for their clans?
Like (0)
Title says it all; apologies if this has been posted a million times already but I don't read these forums ever. I'm just wondering if there is any knowledge out there about this, or any official answer as well. I will probably never buy premium but I do like being active in my clan.
Thanks for any response!
Yes. Non-premiums can help toward Clan Challenges.
clan challenges are mythical like bigfoot........
I don't understand why they can't implement clan challenges. To me that would be easier than the ops. You wouldn't have to know whether people were premium or nonpremum, just what clan they were in.
It should be like keeping up with individual challenges, with a bit of code to pick up the clan name and credit it to that clan.
you do realize that clan challenges will be like " call in a care package while on a full team" right? its the BH way dude. all you have to do is look at clan ops to see it. nothing but lonewolf ops. they arent even geared towards playing as a "clan" because its faster and more efficiant to play solo.
Yes, I've read the elite page on clan ops and challenges and have known what challenges are for a long time. Not sure what I said in my post to make you think I didn't know what they were.
Anyway, just the fact that it's based on individual progress should make it easier to implement than ops.
From what I've heard, challenges will be like "Have your team (at least 4 clan members) have a 5:1 K/D in a single match."
im sure you do im just making the point that challenges like ops will be a joke. they have done nothing to promote playing as a clan. the ops themselves need to be like total wins with atleast x amount of clan members in group ect. I could easily see them using the challenges already in game to level the clan instead of actually putting some thought into it.

Great review of THE HOLY THIEF in The Irish Times today. I think it has somethign to do with The Irish Fiction Award nomination. Anyway, a very kind and generous one so I'm not complaining.
- Buy the Books
"Set in a vividly imagined Stalinist Russia, where the creeping paranoia of a surveillance state blends perfectly with the brutal serial murders"
Metro"Ryan's stately style belies the page-turning quality of the novel"
Irish Times"Ryan writes with narrative drive and urgency, a good sense of place and a central character who is conflicted, moral and above all likeable: whodunnit heaven."
The Times"Such details make "The Holy Thief" … one of the year's most exciting mysteries"
Sun Sentinel"Fans of Phillip Kerr, Tom Rob Smith, and Olen Steinhauer have a treat in store with this strong period thriller from British debut author Ryan . . .A series to watch very closely"
Irish Examiner"Remarkable thriller . . . In his solitude and resolve, Ryan's Korolev evokes Martin Cruz Smith's fierce Arkady Renko, while the period detail and gore call to mind Tom Rob Smith"
Library Journal"Ryan's research, and the genuine feel he has for the unique place and time, made The Holy Thief an especially good read."

LOS ANGELES — From cratering sales to diminishing creative returns, comic books seem headed for extinction. But comics-based everything else — from blockbuster movies to television series and beyond — is going gangbusters.
Who knew we needed to kill comics to save them?
Matt Pizzolo, that's who. "Anyone who loves comics and sees them as a vital art form capable of telling unique and challenging stories must recognize that [the industry's] business corpse has to be put out of its misery so a new one can be built," said Pizzolo, a publisher and filmmaker who has been busy engineering the transmedia spine that will take comics into the future.
"Creators cannot survive doing only comics these days," said Pizzolo — a still youthful but slightly graying 37-year-old who's a dead ringer for a hip(per) Reed Richards. The co-founder of Occupy Comics publisher Black Mask Studios and founder of transmedia production house Halo-8, Pizzolo was dressed down in a black T-shirt and sweatshirt, jeans and red sneakers when we met at a cafe in Los Angeles' hipster-friendly Silverlake neighborhood to talk about the future of comics while Black Mask's new headquarters in nearby Eagle Rock was getting hammered out with office equipment and greenscreens.
The comic book industry's built on "a mix of bad deals wrought by crooked publishers and an aging audience more likely to discuss 'Would Hulk or Batman win a fight?' during a funeral than at a party," he said. "Now that the lion's share of the 20th century's pop-cultural capital has been consolidated into the intellectual-property libraries of two Hollywood studios, it's time to wipe the slate clean and rebuild comics from scratch: new ideas, innovations, business models, blood and modes of storytelling."

Produces enough oil to heat 10 million. That is, to anyone stupid enough to simply burn it for heat, when its monetary value as fuel is quadruple that.
The issue: natural gas being flared (burned as waste) in the new oil fields of the Bakken shale in North Dakota (USA).
The numbers: (North Dakota/2011)
Heat content | CO2 content | Value | ||
(i) Oil production | 153 million barrels | 936 PJ (9.36*1017 Joules) | 64.8 million tons | $14.5 billion |
(ii) Gas production | 97 billion ft3 | 105 PJ | 5.3 million tons | $384 million |
(iii) Gas flaring | 50 billion ft3 | 54 PJ | 2.7 million tons | $196 million |
ratio (iii)/(i) | 5.7% | 4.2% | 1.4% |
(Heat contents: 5.8 million btu per barrel crude oil, 1023 btu per ft3 natural gas. At 2011 mean prices of $94.88/barrel (WTI spot), $3.95/ft3 gas (at wellhead). CO2 intensities of 161, 117 kg/million btu respective)
(Note this 2011 data is quite obsolete. The most recent data is an annualized oil production rate of 273 million barrels, nearly twice as high. I don't have gas flaring numbers more recent than 2011).
A recent NYT article explains the (probably obvious) economics behind this:
[NYT] In North Dakota, Flames of Wasted Natural Gas Light the Prairie
The oil companies say economic reality is driving the flaring in the Bakken, the biggest oil field discovered in the United States in four decades. They argue that they cannot afford to pay for pipelines and processing plants to capture and sell the gas until they actually drill oil wells and calculate how much gas will bubble out of the oil. And reinjection of the carbon dioxide, commonly done in conventional oil fields, is more difficult and expensive in less permeable shale fields.
With oil prices high amid strong global demand and leases as short as five years for land in the Bakken, drillers have found it more profitable to just grab the oil and burn the gas. Building out the infrastructure to handle gas would substantially raise costs and slow development, and efforts so far to use the gas for electrical generation have had limited success because it contains components that burn too hot.
"I'll tell you why people flare: It's cheap," said Troy Anderson, lead operator of a North Dakota gas-processing plant owned by Whiting Petroleum. "Pipelines are expensive: You have to maintain them. You need permits to build them. They are a pain."
The oil expansion is growing faster than the ability to build gas pipelines.
It goes beyond natural gas. According to the WSJ, they don't even have pipelines to get the oil out -- the main product. With oil pipes under construction, they are moving crude by freight rail, at an extra cost estimated at $5-10 per barrel.
[WSJ] Riding the Dakota Oil Boom
North Dakota's output has grown in the last three years from a trickle to nearly 450,000 barrels a day—trailing only Texas, Alaska and California—and could double by the middle of the decade, according to analyst and industry projections. But pipelines in the region already are operating at capacity, and major new lines aren't expected to start going into service until 2013.
In response, companies are building rail terminals. Rail terminals can be developed quickly, giving them an advantage for now over pipelines. The North Dakota Pipeline Authority estimates a doubling in rail-terminal capacity next year alone to more than 700,000 barrels a day.
Most of the oil gets to the train depots by truck, picked up from thousands of wells scattered off dirt roads. At night, natural gas being flared from the oil wells casts an eerie glow over the vast prairie lands.
Note that, like flaring, the absence of oil pipelines has a substantial cost in energy waste. To push a ton of oil 1,000 miles by rail, about 2 gallons of diesel are burned -- about 1% of the cargo.

Why buy a certified Maine Used Car?
Berlin City Nissan, your premier dealership for Portland Maine Used Cars, can help guide you through the process of choosing a vehicle that is perfect for your financial and lifestyle needs.
When purchasing a car, consumers used to have three options, buy a new car, lease a car, or buy a used car. Each type of car had its specific advantages and disadvantages that car buyers would decide which the best fit was for them. However, within the last six to eight years, another option has been made available to the consumer, the Certified Pre-Owned car (CPO).
The CPO came about as a way to sell former leased cars that were only two to three years old, in very good condition, and whose lease had just expired. In many cases these previously leased cars were luxury cars such as a Lexus or Mercedes. Therefore, a CPO provided a way for used car buyers to purchase a high-end vehicle that they would not normally be able to afford.
In addition to the number of off-lease cars that can be converted to CPOs, many automobile manufacturers have been struggling to the point that they are desperate to find ways to maximize their sales revenues. In 2005, about 1.6 million CPOs were sold, which accounted for about 10 percent of total automotive sales in the US. Furthermore, according to JD Power and Associates, 38 percent of late-model used car purchasers bought a CPO. There are so many of used cars Maine has to offer, you need to be certain that the dealership suits your needs as well as the vehicle.
What Exactly Does A CPO Mean?
With a manufacturer's CPO, car makers take their later model vehicles, less than five years old, subject them to vigorous inspections, in some cases recondition certain parts of a car up to standard, and apply an extended warranty and other incentives so they can resell their CPOs at a premium, used car price. This is intended to benefit both car manufacturer and buyer. The manufacturer will maximize on their profit margin while the buyer will receive an almost new, higher end car with a limited warranty that should be reliable.
Advantages of Buying a CPO
Besides the ability to buy a higher-class car than you would normally be able to afford new, due to the car's depreciation, CPO buyers like the extended warranty and rigorous vehicle inspection that a CPO offers. This appears to give the car buyer piece of mind that he or she has bought a near new car, which can be relied upon to operate properly. Additionally, some manufacturers will include a vehicle's car history from companies such as Car Fax.com
Some manufacturers will include other incentives like a free initial oil change, 24 hour roadside service, detailing, other options and even low financing rates that can help make the car more affordable. When looking for a Used Car in Maine make sure that you ask what's included in your manufacturer program.
Although determining which cars qualify as a CPO differs from manufacturer to manufacturer, usually luxury manufacturers are the most selective when deciding which of their vehicles qualifies as a CPO. Therefore, since luxury manufacturers have higher standards you are more prone to getting a better condition, lower mileage CPO when buying a luxury CPO vehicle.
Despite the fact that different manufacturers advertise more extensive inspections, they all basically cover the same areas of a vehicle. However, you may still wish to carefully review the points from an inspection. The same holds true for vehicle warranties, which can vary quite a bit from a few weeks to a couple years. Some manufacturers may even offer an exchange or return policy.
Berlin City, your Maine Used Car Dealer, has huge selection of certified pre-owned vehicles to choose from - visit us today.

During CNN's live coverage of Samuel A. Alito Jr.'s hearing, Wolf Blitzer once again accused the Democrats -- but not Republicans -- of prejudging the nomination.
In an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer, CNN senior analyst Jeff Greenfield repeated a false claim by former Republican National Committee chairman Ed Gillespie that John Roberts "never said" that Roe v. Wade was "settled law" during his Supreme Court nomination hearings. Blitzer failed to challenge or correct this false statement.
In an interview with Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA) during CNN's live coverage of Supreme Court nominee Samuel A. Alito Jr.'s confirmation hearing, host Wolf Blitzer asked Kennedy: "It sounded, based on your opening statement, as if you have already made up your mind. You are going to oppose this nominee. Is that right?" Yet during a subsequent interview with Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN), Blitzer never questioned whether Frist had already decided how he was going to vote on the Alito nomination even though Frist repeatedly praised Alito.
On CNN, anchor Miles O'Brien suggested that a Senate filibuster of Supreme Court nominee Samuel A. Alito Jr. would not be "dignified"; anchor Wolf Blitzer wondered if Alito will "get the fair vote the president has been asking for."

Currency Impact Report
FX Impact: Labor Strife Hits S. Africa Rand
October 08, 2012
The crumbling of the South African rand amid ongoing labor strife in the country's mining sector was front and center in currency markets last week, according to IndexUniverse ETF Analyst Ugo Egbunike. In the five days ended Oct. 5, the rand got knocked down almost 5 percent against the dollar Egbunike, in his weekly chat with IndexUniverse.com Managing Editor Olly Ludwig, also stressed that financial markets are again optimistic about Europe following the European Central Bank's announcement that it was ready to implement the bond-buying program it promised in September. Local European equity markets rose and, as our weekly "Currency Impact Report" shows, so did the euro against the dollar, helping returns for U.S. investors. Ludwig: It looks like South Africa was a big story last week. Egbunike: U.S investors in South Africa definitely took some hits, and that's a result of the labor issues and mining strikes going on there. A total of 12,000 employees were just dismissed, and the rand has taken a huge hit as a result. It was at a four-month low against the dollar as of Friday. Ludwig: And who knows where that goes. Egbunike: That's right. Ludwig: Now the euro, on the other hand, helped U.S. investors. Egbunike: Absolutely. The euro is near a two-week high, and it's a result of Mario Draghi's promise that the ECB is prepared to buy bonds of nations within the eurozone that are in trouble. They announced this program a few weeks back, and now they've announced they're actually ready to start doing it. So, regarding operational necessities for the ECB to actually go out and buy bonds, it's ready to go now. Ludwig: Now, within the eurozone, in terms of market returns—forget about the currency move for a moment—Greece was up nearly 14 percent last week. What's that about? Egbunike: That's an optimistic reaction to what the ECB's bond-buying policies will actually mean. Ludwig: So, there's a sense Greece will be one of the main beneficiaries of this ECB policy? Egbunike: Yes. Greece, Spain and Italy too. We'll see to what extent this actually meets the needs of these countries. Ludwig: Another theme that stuck out last week was India and the strengthening of the rupee. More of the same? Egbunike: Yes, more of the same in India: the Indian equity benefiting from its economic reforms, and the rupee is continuing on its appreciation against the dollar. The Indian stock market has received record inflows so far this year of about $16.2 billion. Ludwig: Anything that's worth mentioning in the past week? Egbunike: I'm also looking at the Mexican peso. It's appreciating against the dollar, and that's really benefiting from the optimism—they're looking at Europe and the U.S.—and the peso is definitely benefiting from the risk-on play that occurred during the week. Ludwig: So, overall, it seems markets are at a critical juncture right now. Egbunike: Definitely at a juncture, yes. It looks like things are going to start kicking into place with regard to monetary policy in Europe. We'll see. |

27Kip1 Antibody (C-term) Blocking Peptide - Protein Information | |
Name CDKN1B | |
Synonyms KIP1 | |
Function Important regulator of cell cycle progression. Involved in G1 arrest. Potent inhibitor of cyclin E- and cyclin A-CDK2 complexes. Forms a complex with cyclin type D-CDK4 complexes and is involved in the assembly, stability, and modulation of CCND1- CDK4 complex activation. Acts either as an inhibitor or an activator of cyclin type D-CDK4 complexes depending on its phosphorylation state and/or stoichometry | |
Cellular Location Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Endosome (By similarity). Note=Nuclear and cytoplasmic in quiescent cells. AKT- or RSK-mediated phosphorylation on Thr-198, binds 14-3-3, translocates to the cytoplasm and promotes cell cycle progression Mitogen-activated UHMK1 phosphorylation on Ser-10 also results in translocation to the cytoplasm and cell cycle progression Phosphorylation on Ser-10 facilitates nuclear export. Translocates to the nucleus on phosphorylation of Tyr-88 and Tyr-89 Colocalizes at the endosome with SNX6; this leads to lysosomal degradation (By similarity) | |
Tissue Location Expressed in all tissues tested. Highest levels in skeletal muscle, lowest in liver and kidney |

p27Kip1 is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, which shares a limited similarity with CDK inhibitor CDKN1A/p21. The encoded protein binds to and prevents the activation of cyclin E-CDK2 or cyclin D-CDK4 complexes, and thus controls the cell cycle progression at G1. The degradation of this protein, which is triggered by its CDK dependent phosphorylation and subsequent ubiquitination by SCF complexes, is required for the cellular transition from quiescence to the proliferative state.

For music, booze and food, Chez Ray serves it all up in downtown Eugene.
An Interview with Chez Ray
Eugene has attracted many interested and talented people over the years. This is partly due to Oregon's relaxed atmosphere, as well as Eugene's proximity to San Francisco, especially the counter-culture revolution that occurred there in the 60s.
One of the local celebrities who has made a name for himself is Ray Sewel, aka Chez Ray. Ray, the former road chef for the Grateful Dead (and who has known The Dead since 1965, when they were The Warlocks ). Now Ray is the owner of Chez Ray's North Beach at 10th Avenue and Willamette Street in downtown Eugene. This alternative place serves microbrew beer and a range of good food that Ray designed himself.
I stopped by, and Ray was kind enough to grant me an interview. I found him to be a genuine guy, someone who definitely connects to a large part of the community. I look forward to stopping in more often to "hang out in the environment," but here are the things Ray and I talked about during the interview:
Nick: Ray, where are you originally from?
Ray: I'm originally from San Francisco, my mother was from the mid-west and was a "beat philanthropic". She moved to the North Beach area of San Francisco on the advice of William Burroughs.
Nick: Why did you come to Eugene?
Ray: I moved to Eugene in 1972. The 60s were over, it was time to share the experience. And Ken Kesey was here, so I came.
Nick: Why did you get into cooking?
Ray: I've always had a passion for cooking. I'm dyslexic, so I had to find a career. I was selected out of 1,000 entries by a Swiss chef program for European cooking. Five restaurants in San Francisco took one new chef and I got to be a third-generation chef of Escofier – the king of chefs. During my training I fell under five "black hat" chefs.
I got to know the Dead through Ken Kesey and cooked for them on the west coast. I think the band members were the best examples of the "true American": freedom of expression, a rebel that [takes] care of their own.
In those days San Francisco was just outside the European culinary grip, so to speak, it was just to far away. So some of the chefs were rebels, they stayed with the European cooking tradition, but used other ingredients. That's one of the reasons people come to the Pacific Northwest: the organic fresh ingredients.
Chez Ray
Nick: What is your favourite food?
Ray: I like to play with food, use a wide variation of ingredients. I eat meat and vegetables and my meals are low in carbohydrates. Cooking to me is like music, ingredients are like notes and flavours like chords etc. There seems to be a universal harmony with certain flavours: garlic, onion, tomato, for example, they go well together.
Nick: Is there still that 60s spirit here in Eugene and the Pacific Northwest?
Ray: Yes. Timothy Leary said the gathering would be in the Northwest. It's all because of Kesey's energy.
Nick: I read One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest when I was 15 and enjoyed it.
Ray: He's a amazing man. A couple of years ago he was in Europe with the Magic Bus.
Nick: How long has Chez Ray's been in business?
Ray: We've been 1 1/2 years at the present location, 10 years altogether. I've cooked for Santana and James Brown since the mid 70s using the name Chez Ray.
Nick: How did you come up with your menu?
Ray: I took French classics and integrated them with festival food, with my own style… It was a balance.
Nick: What has the reaction been to your business?
Ray: Great. Ken Kesey's cousin has bought the recently closed McDonald Theatre on the corner of 10th and Willamette, and we'll be doing rock concerts in there. We're the rock-n-roll of food, it's a natural mix of who we are, where we are.
A lot of my age-folks came out when we opened, together with a generation of youth with 60s interest. It was about the pursuit of personal freedom, with some of the older folks wanting relive some of their past experiences.
Nick: What new items will you add to the menu?
Ray: I'm getting into a fusion of health, that is… less fat and personal changes, together with an Eastern consciousness, plus a Latin influence. Whatever is available.
Chez Ray sits at the end of his bar – note the tye-dyed bar stools.
Nick: Do you plan to expand?
Ray: I'm looking at it. In fact I might do a TV show called Chez Ray's Midnight Circus where we would have several different acts that would each perform, then take a seat at the table for a feast. We have some backing and this might go into syndication.
Nick: You might have a pretty long line outside on Saturday nights.
Ray: That's what I'm hoping for.
Nick: As a member of the alternative community and also as a businessman, how do you feel about the activism and alternative views Eugene is known for?
Ray: I'm a firm believer in action. but it has to be a unified force. I think the community has to be represented. Anarchy wasn't invented in 1991. One has to be conscious of actions and people can interpret a region as the "wrong side of the fence".
We do community feasts in the Whitaker neighborhood and have done for 20 years. We're starting a food school for homeless vocation and organic farms.
Nick: I used to know a lot of homeless people and many of them were decent folks who were self-destructive and made bad choices.
Ray: Bad choices and found that that society doesn't want to let you back in sometimes. We're getting former homeless people to help the others out of their situation. It's much easier to take help from someone who's been there.
Nick: If people are reading this, why should they come to your restaurant?
Ray: There's a good connection.
Nick: Tell us about the live acts you have. Why did you decide to have live music.
Ray: We're an incubator for talent. I've been with musicians for 30 years and like to have them here. We have everything from belly dancing to poetry, plus varied music from jazz to rock. Some of the acts that have played here include Kenny Reid & Stone Cold Jazz, Stone Biscuit, Hole in the Ocean (a Grateful Dead cover band). We have a lot of old friends, and musicians who are passing through town play here.
Nick: What is your opinion of some of the events Eugene is known for?
Ray: The Saturday Market is the pulse of the community. The Oregon Country Fair has been the most unique cultural expression in the US for the past 30 years. It has been an incubator for local talent: the Flying Karamazov Brothers, for example.
Dana (waitress): Chez Ray's is a cool place to work. A good reason to come here is that you can be free to be a human without judgement. You don't have to be at your best to be in the Chez Ray's environment.
Ray: This is truly an American experience, an opportunity to hang out in the environment.

A con artist pretending to be the victim's son is being sought by New Westminster police.
A department release said a man befriended an elderly woman on Nov. 21 posing as her son and followed her home where he stole $240 cash in her wallet before fleeing. A similar incident happened on Jan. 2 this year where a man convinced a senior to take $1,600 from her bank account, and police believe the same man is responsible for both thefts.
Anyone having any information on the identity of the man is asked to call Const. Andrew Corazza at 604-525-5411.


text: Bought a 2002 model skis, and bindings for my daughter for christmas, Did not have the matching boots so bought other boots, went over to another ski shop and saw the matching boots, called them about 15 mintues later and told them I was going to buy the matching boots and will bring them to be mounted. I left all ski equiptment at the store. They said it was on sale and could not be returned. Mind you 0ver 75% of the store is on sale. They called my house couple hours later and said I could buy the Spahire boots and bring them and they would give me credit. They also said the skis would be ready at a paticular time. Well of course they were not. I would not reccomend you buy anything at that store unless it be gloves or chapstick

GRAND RAPIDS (AP) — A judge won't stop a new Grand Rapids law that makes small amounts of marijuana possession a civil infraction instead of a misdemeanor crime.
Kent County Judge Paul Sullivan declined to order an injunction Wednesday. But he cautioned that a challenge to the law still remains pending.
Grand Rapids residents in November voted to make possession of small amounts of marijuana a civil infraction. City officials say anyone caught with more than 2.5 ounces will be referred to prosecutors.
County Prosecutor Bill Forsyth is challenging the amendment to the Grand Rapids City Charter, saying it would prohibit police from enforcing state law regarding illegal marijuana possession.

Entertainment Tonight and The Insider |
Abigail Baron '12, interned at Entertainment Tonight and The Insider in Studio City, CA. She started working as a Production Assistant, doing tasks such as transcribing interviews, logging footage, filing tapes, and helping with miscellaneous tasks that needed to be done around the office. Three weeks after starting, she was transferred to the online department. There, she compiles research for stories, pre-writes obituaries for future use, and gathers images for the writers to use in their galleries. Most recently she was given the opportunity to work at a PA for The Academy Awards. It was the most amazing experience for anyone wanting to work in entertainment news. For the days leading up to the awards, she assisted in the taping of promos for the weekend's broadcast, setting up the talent's dressing rooms, and running errands for the producers and directors. On the day of the show, she helped run tapes from the carpet to the truck and assisted with filming the red-carpet arrivals and post-show recaps. It was a great hands-on experience that allowed her to see what goes on behind the scenes of an event that most people only ever see on TV. While she was having the time of her life at work, she hoped to learn more about the production process of the daily shows, and possibly work with a director to learn what her dream after graduation is to work at a company, like Entertainment Tonight, gaining as much knowledge and experience as she can in order to become a successful on-air reporter.

Wednesday Night Video – Joe Soptic v. Mitt Romney
August 8, 2012 Leave a comment
The sad part about this Priorities USA ad decrying Mitt Romney's vulture capitalism is how many people celebrate an economy with these kinds of job losses and catastrophic lack of health care. To me, the key insight comes in Joe Soptic's very last sentence.
JOE SOPTIC: I do not think Mitt Romney realizes what he has done to anyone. And I — furthermore, I do not think Mitt Romney is concerned.
Oh, and the Romney response to Soptic's story? Joe Soptic should have lived in Massachusetts because Massachusetts has an awesome health care mandate.

Hi everyone
It has been a while since I've given an update here on Etheric Warriors.
Last year I ran some sales which led to production and service times getting away from me, as many are fully aware.
I am working to ship the last remaining orders from the past months. I'm working on the last handful of orders by folks who have
endured some extremely long wait times for their orders. I can only offer my deepest apologies and fulfill my obligations to everyone.
Moving forward however; it has become most important for me to keep stock on hand and to guarantee timely shipping.
It is most wonderful knowing there has been such incredible expansion in the market and demand for orgone related pieces seems to have grown so much over the years. When I ran those sales last year, I really had no idea how vast the market had become in recent years. What a learning process this winter has been for me.
As for now, I guarantee 10 day shipping for all non-custom order pieces which are available on my website.
I'm going to try to keep an up to date quantity of stock on hand shown for each piece on my website as well.
There are two new products which I am beginning to offer now as well as 3 other new designs to be announced in the following weeks.
The first design which I'm most excited about is a small CB that can be kept in your car to offer assistance on the road.
It is also a quite effective CB as myself and others have been experiencing.
This CB has 2 foot long pipes of half inch diameter with crystals set permanently into the pipes. It also has an adjustable polyester resin spacer which allows a person to cradle the small CB in one's arm while holding the spacer with the hand. Its best not to hold the actual pipes, as with any CB.
The other new product I'm making available today is a Full Size CB core unit which a person can use to greatly simplify
the construction process of a full sized CB. The CB Base pipes are poured into a matrix of metal spirals and gemstones in a unit of approximately 2 quarts of orgonite. This CB Core comes with 2 pounds of aluminum included with the order as well as a spacer for the CB Pipes.
A person could obtain this CB Core, buy 1 gallon of resin from any building supply store, as well as the 1 inch Pipes and the 1 inch butt connectors and a 2 gallon bucket.
Mix the resin with catalyst, pour half the resin into the 2 gallon bucket, mix in half the metal spirals which come in the package, place the CB Core unit in the bucket.. and pour the resin of the mixed resin over the CB Core and stir the remaining aluminum into the resin...
and in 45 minutes, your new CB base is complete with very little effort. It greatly simplifies the CB construction process.
The last step would be to obtain a set of CB crystals to have a complete CB.
I am also very excited about a new wand design which I'll announce in the coming weeks after gaining more feedback from other sensitives.

If the goal is to make it look like the state is hiding something every month regarding the latest jobs data, the press office at the Missouri Department of Economic Development is doing great work.
Following two months of filing a Sunshine Law request each time to receive the latest jobs data, the department posted numbers online the same day as sending out the press release for March.
Each month, after touting the creation of thousands of jobs in the release, the data would show an even larger drop in the labor force.
Expecting the same song and dance Tuesday when the April numbers were released, hours after the press release was sent out, I noticed something different in the data posted online.
More people started new jobs during April than exited the labor force for the first time this year.
The department, however, noted in the press release that it adjusted the March payroll numbers.
For the sake of comparison and accuracy, were the labor force numbers also adjusted?
I called and left numerous messages and sent a handful of emails. In addition to reaching out to the governor's office, I tried calling the researchers. But the operator sent me back to the press office.
No one has returned a call or email.
I ended up reporting the unadjusted numbers on Tuesday and finally confirmed the news on Friday, after the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released its version of the state unemployment numbers.
A nice person in the press office in Washington D.C. helped me get in touch with a labor economist, who confirmed that it is not uncommon for slight differences between the national and state data.
To make sure I had the most recent data, the media relations person talked me through how to use the online database, where I examined the latest labor force, employment and unemployment data.
Afterwards, I reported what the state might finally consider as positive labor market news.
While 31,500 left the labor force since the start of this year, the state has added 35,500 new jobs.
Since a person must be actively searching for employment to be counted as unemployed, more people were leaving the workforce across Missouri than landing new jobs until last month.
The new jobs pushed the unemployment rate lower to 7.3 percent compared to 7.4 in March.
However, I might be back on the no call list after the state received unwelcome news on Thursday.
The U.S. Department of Labor cited Missouri as the state with the highest weekly jobless claims in the nation, totalling 2,569, surpassing the amount in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Texas.
If no one will return my calls or answer my questions in the state economic development office, hopefully someone within the department is taking the time to talk with prospective new businesses.

The Missouri leaders have been hiding the reasons why they had the 2 state of the art Chrysler plants tore down and sold for scrap pennies on the dollar and getting away with it even though it impacted 43,000 St. Louis tax paying jobs. They don't want to talk about it especially now that those jobs could have been brought back to work with the American auto industry rebounding again. I wonder why they wanted those plants tore down so fast? Could it have something to do with kick backs? Could have something to do with campaign donations? Could it have something to do with anti American auto workers as in hate crime? I wonder who will solve this mystery.

Best Way to Drink Affordable Bordeaux Wines
If you're a wine drinker, chances are Bordeaux wines hold a certain mystical, alluring appeal. They do for me. Known as the 'King of Wines' Bordeaux wines are big, bold, complicated and perhaps most of all, often very expensive…especially the wines classified as Grand Crus. All in all, they can be a bit intimidating. The [...]

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Tamoria Holmes and Saadia Doyle were named to the MEAC First Team as announced by the conference office on Sunday March 4. All awards are voted on by the conference's head women's basketball coaches and sports information directors.
Holmes, who emerged as one of the premier players in the MEAC this season, leads the conference in scoring with 18.5 points per game, and recently reached her 1,000th point against Howard's regular season finale at Delaware State. The Durham, N.C. native is tied for fifth place on the all-time steal list with 176 behind future MEAC Hall-of-Famer Alisha Hill.
Doyle, who was selected as MEAC Player of the Week twice this year, finished the regular season averaging 17.3 points per contest, and collected 13th double-doubles – ranking her 22nd in the nation. The Atlanta, Ga. native is now second on the HU all-time scoring list with 1,603 points – Alisha Hill holds the record with 2,179.
Howard and Florida A&M both finished the season with a 14-2 mark in MEAC play and will share the conference's runners-up trophy. The Lady Bison won the tiebreaker over the Rattlers to secure the number two seed in the MEAC tournament, while FAMU earned the third seed. HU will meet the winner of No. 7 South Carolina State vs. No. 10 Delaware State on Wednesday at 2:30 p.m.
The 2012 regular season champion, regular-season runners-up, first-team members and top honorees including Player, Rookie, Defensive and Coach of the Year selections, will be recognized in pre-game presentations prior to their first games of the 2012 MEAC Basketball Tournament.

You Ask, Patch Answers
What is a Blizzard Watch?
Framingham is under a blizzard watch, but what exactly does that mean?
The National Weather Service has issued a Blizzard Watch for Framingham, which in short means stay off the roads. A blizzard watch will go into effect beginning Friday and continuing into Saturday. According to the weather service, this means a potential for considerable falling or blowing snow. This will be accompanied by winds of over 35 miles per hour. Visibility will be below 1/4 mile with whiteout conditions at times. All of this means travel will be very dangerous, leading the weather service to advise people be prepared to alter any travel plans.

ON: Content is age-appropriate for kids this age. | |
PAUSE: Know your child; some content may not be right for some kids. | |
OFF: Not age-appropriate for kids this age. | |
NOT FOR KIDS: Not appropriate for kids any age. |
Parents need to know that this movie has high levels of blood and gore (animal and human), vulgarity, and sexual elements. This is NOT a movie for kids.
The setting is 14th-century Scotland, oppressed by the English King Edward I (Patrick McGoohan), alias Longshanks, who hangs a group of Highlanders trying to negotiate a peace treaty. One of the victim's son is William Wallace (http://www.commonsensemedia.org/reviews/Mel-Gibson/). When Longshanks makes it legal for British nobles to sexually abuse Scottish women, Wallace's wife is killed by British soldiers. He rallies other angry Scots and an English-hating Irish brigand and stages a successful guerilla war on the British. Ironically, Wallace's goal of independence for Scotland is thwarted by the region's own aristocrats, a well-treated bunch with investments in England. Betrayed by his high-born countrymen, Wallace assassinates a number of them before he's captured and handed over to the English for public torture and execution. Wallace is unyielding to the end, and his example shames the Scottish prince Robert the Bruce (Angus McFayden) to lead a larger, more successful revolt later, in Wallace's name.
The spin that director/producer/star Gibson puts on this version of Wallace's story is that the true peoples' heroes -- warriors, freedom fighters, messiahs, (and filmmakers?) who don't back down or compromise their ethics -- often don't get their just reward in this life. That's a theme to ponder, but parents might emphasize to impressionable viewers that, while William Wallace apparently did exist, much of the script in BRAVEHEART has been shown to be false.
Parents should be aware of the high level of blood and gore, and sexual elements. Edward I's son Edward II (Peter Hanly) is a pampered homosexual who so annoys Longshanks that the king throws his son's boyfriend out of a window. Edward II is married, for strictly diplomatic reasons, to a beautiful French princess (Sophie Marceau) who sleeps with William Wallace and gets pregnant by him, another way by which the hero triumphs from beyond the grave.
Families can talk about the theme of true heroes -- warriors, dissidents (and filmmakers?) who don't back down or compromise their ethics -- often fail to get their just recognition and glory during their lifetimes, only painful death. That's a theme to ponder, but parents might emphasize to impressionable viewers that, while William Wallace apparently did exist, much of this movie's script has been shown to be historically bogus.
