Now for a piece of really good news. Malala will be staying in the UK – and thus will be much much less likely to be a target again. She is able to stay because her father has been made a diplomat. Good move. Full marks to whoever did it, even if it's Tories.
The Taliban have vowed to target her again. Her father, Ziauddin, has been appointed Pakistan's education attaché in Birmingham, virtually guaranteeing that Ms. Yousafzai will remain in Britain. Her case has generated worldwide recognition of the struggle for women's rights in Pakistan. In a sign of her reach, Ms. Yousafzai made the shortlist for Time magazine's Person of the Year for 2012.
It's terrible that she's been driven out of Pakistan, of course. It's terrible that the girls of Pakistan are put at a distance from her. But it's worth it.

Ecosystem Services: What are the Public Policy Implications?R. David Simpson
Does the ecosystem services paradigm mistakenly presume that the best way to conserve nature is to use it for its goods and services?
Lone Mountain Fellow
Simpson has been a visiting professor at University College, London, and a PERC Julian Simon Fellow (2002). Known especially for his studies of conservation policy and environmental regulation, Simpson spent 12 years as a senior fellow with Resources for the Future, a nonprofit research organization in Washington, D.C. He has written many articles for academic and policy audiences, has edited three books, and frequently advises governments, international bodies, and scientific groups on biodiversity and conservation policy.
Does the ecosystem services paradigm mistakenly presume that the best way to conserve nature is to use it for its goods and services?
A new volume aims to foster an engaging discussion about the future of environmental policy in this human-dominated era.
For the last few decades, ecosystem services have been a popular theme in conservation policy. Should national governments be involved in enhancing their provision?
Are ecosystem services really valuable enough to justify conservation?
What is the best way to preserve species-rich tropical habitats? During the past two decades, international conservation groups have attempted to save habitats by combining conservation with development.

Monday , March 12, 2018 - 7:16 PM
Spring sports technically began last week, starting one of the quicker transitions between sports seasons as we go from exclusively indoor sports to hoping Utah's spring weather doesn't wreak too much havoc on the schedules.
Since the hardwood, swimming pool and wrestling mats are still relatively fresh in our minds, let's pause and reflect on the Top 10 winter sports moments this season.
1. Fremont girls basketball wins the state championship
Fremont girls basketball lost its November season-opener to Copper Hills, a Grizzlies team that eventually made the 6A state semifinals.
Three months, 24 games, a Region 1 championship and 20 straight wins later, the Silver Wolves beat Bingham 61-47 in the 6A state title game and hoisted the championship trophy.
To get there, Fremont survived a 16-point first-half deficit against Riverton, one that was erased for good when Karlie Valdez's runner went in with one second left, a back-and-forth overtime semifinal against Westlake and then the Miners, who twice erased Fremont's seven-point leads.
But when the Silver Wolves took a 49-47 lead late, they never relinquished it.
Trophy? Check.
2. Morgan girls basketball pushes past tragedy to win region title
Before basketball even started, Morgan girls basketball dealt with a close loss, that of the boyfriend of one of the Trojans' players.
He was known well by the team, having driven to Morgan often to watch his girlfriend play soccer and basketball.
Then before Christmas, one of the team managers' father passed away. In fewer than two months, two of the team's own had gone through tragedy.
What did the Trojans do after that? They rebounded from a 4-9 record, a seven-game losing streak and won a share of the Region 13 championship, finishing 15-11 overall and 7-1 in Region 13.
3. Kaygen Canfield recovers from a torn ACL, wins third-straight wrestling title
Football season was over not long after it started for Bear River senior Kaygen Canfield when he tore his ACL in August in the season-opener.
Wrestling this year was out of the question — or so it appeared.
About six months later on Feb. 10 at the 4A wrestling state championships in Orem, Canfield won the 152-pound championship by beating Mountain Crest's Brayden Guthrie 1-0.
It was his third individual state championship in a row, and probably the sweetest since it was going to be a successful year if he wrestled at all.
4. Bonneville girls basketball goes from one win to region champions
Who could've thought after a one-win season, Bonneville girls basketball would cut down the nets in February?
Well, that's exactly what happened.
The Lakers went 1-17 in 2016-17.
This year: 16-6, a 14-game winning streak that spanned two months and an outright Region 11 championship clinched at home in a comeback win over Tooele.
That turnaround speaks for itself.
5. Brock Hardy wins fourth wrestling state championship
Brock Hardy was so dominant that the record bookkeepers could have written his achievements in pen before they happened.
Here's a brief summary of what the Box Elder senior wrestler accomplished with his win in the 5A 145-pound state championship match.
Hardy became the 20th prep wrestler in Utah to win four state championships, the second Box Elder wrestler to do so, finished with a 46-0 record and a No. 1 ranking in the nation by FloWrestling in the 145-pound weight class.
"Star-studded" doesn't begin to describe it.
6. Fremont boys basketball wins the region championship
Region 1 boys basketball was a brawl this year. So for Fremont, led by two sophomores, to win the region at 9-3 was impressive.
Consider the Silver Wolves' three losses were by a total of six points. Not only that, but of their nine region wins, five were by six points or fewer.
The ninth, the one that clinched the outright title, came when a 50-foot heave at the buzzer by Syracuse's Brock Gilbert didn't go in, though at that point in February it wouldn't have surprised anyone if it did.
7. Mariah Maile captures three first-place finishes at state swim meet
Viewmont junior swimmer Mariah Maile made sure this year's state swimming meet, held at VHS's home pool at the South Davis Recreation Center, was one she'd never forget.
First, she won the 200-yard freestyle. Then it was the 100-yard freestyle.
To cap it all off was first place in the Vikings' 200 freestyle relay, a relay team that included her sister MJ Maile.
8. Box Elder upsets Skyridge in the girls basketball state tournament
Around 12:30 p.m. Feb. 19 at Salt Lake Community College, the Box Elder girls basketball team set the tone. March Madness started early.
The Bees, seeded No. 4, upset Skyridge, the Region 8 champion, 60-53. They trailed 42-38 heading to the fourth quarter and appeared to be running out of gas. Box Elder wasn't about to give up.
Emily Isaacson, in particular, was not about to be denied with a career-best 27 points on 9 of 18 shooting from the field and a 5 of 8 mark from 3-point range.
9. Skyler Turner's rehab and return from an ACL tear
A torn ACL in sports used to mean an 8-9 month recovery after surgery.
Layton's Skyler Turner did it in five.
On Nov. 28 against American Fork in the Lancers' boys basketball season opener, the Lancers' senior post not only played five months after tearing his left ACL on June 20, but scored 10 points with eight rebounds and Layton won 82-73 in double overtime.
Turner was a mainstay in the starting lineup all year, posting averages of 7.7 points and 6.7 rebounds per game. It was impressive Turner was even on the court to begin with.
10. Brock Gilbert's game-winner vs. Layton
It became kind of a thing in January — Brock Gilbert putting his imprint on basketball games.
On Jan. 12 at home against Layton with the score tied 50-50 and the game waning into its final seconds, Syracuse's 5-foot-9 point guard drove from the left side into four defenders and pulled off the most improbable of his late-game heroics.
Gilbert drove at four defenders — measuring 6-foot-2, 6-foot-4, 6-foot-6 and 6-foot-10 — and made an underhand layup to give Syracuse a 52-50 win.

From first to last frame, Total Recall is in your face. Its rather elegant little science-fiction story is as suffocated as the Martians are. The director has violated his own movie, going so far over the top he's still out there-weightless. [1 June 1990, Friday, p.C]
Both female roles are unexpectedly meaty, so much so that the film loses something once the far more lively Stone is dispatched. Hour one (more satirical) is better all around, though the falloff isn't fatal. [1 June 1990, Life, p.2D]
Starts out as mind-bending futuristic satire and then turns relentless -- it becomes a violent, postpunk version of an Indiana Jones cliff-hanger.
One of the most complex and visually interesting science fiction movies in a long time.

Iffy for 16+
Brilliant but disturbing and violent Schwarzenegger sci-fi.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Total Recall is packed with heavy sci-fi violence that's treated with a dark humor. It includes women fighting and being shot, innocent bystanders used as shields, dead bodies, limbs ripped off, blood, fighting, and more. There are some sexual situations, including an alien woman with three naked breasts. Language is also very strong, including many uses of "f--k" and "s--t." There are also ads for Pepsi sprinkled throughout, as well as ads for beer. Most teen sci-fi fans will eventually want to see this.
Messages: The main plot has to do with evil corporate thugs controlling everything, while individuals could have the power to stand up to them, if only they find the courage. As such, the heroes face some very heavy odds, and solve some big problems, even if their methods are questionable.
Role models: Schwarzenegger may be a role model in some of his other films, but in this one his character is excessively mean and violent. He shoots and kills bad guys, uses innocent bystanders as shields, and even beats up women. Additionally, there's very little teamwork, as he's not sure who to trust.
Violence: This movie is famous for its graphic sci-fi violence. Arnold smashes his space helmet on Mars and his face bulges and explodes (in a dream). The many fight scenes include shooting, punching, slicing, kicking, breaking bones, and spurting blood. Women fight each other and are shot and killed. The main character also punches a female, and uses an innocent bystander as a shield (the bystander is riddled with bullets and dies, and the scene is played for humor). Dead bodies are stepped on. Arms are ripped off, and characters are briefly tortured. Some of the visual effects are somewhat disturbing as well, such as the hero pulling a large tracking device from his nose.
Sex: The main character's wife seduces him, kissing him and undoing her top (nothing shown). An alien woman shows her breasts -- all three of them. A flier for a sex show is shown. There's some innuendo, especially as the hero travels through Mars' "red light district."
Language: Very strong language throughout, with prevalent use of both "f--k" and "s--t." Also: "butt," "bitch," "porking," "ass," "asshole," "d--k," "bastard," "damn," "Christ," and "Jesus."
Consumerism: Pepsi cans are visible, and so is a Pepsi logo. A Lite beer (Miller?) logo is visible. There are several Mars Today newspaper racks, and the logo is similar to that of USA Today. Also a Jack in the Box sign.
Drinking, drugs and smoking: Some scenes take place in a saloon, and beer is advertised, but very little drinking is actually shown.

From Boston to Los Angeles, developers are busy converting existing hotels to one of the hottest concepts in the lodging and real estate industries today — condominium hotels. In many cases, developers are working with branded hotel companies to build mixed-use luxury properties in city centers and resort markets. These complexes typically include a hotel, residential units, office space and retail stores.
So, why have condo hotels become so hot? For starters, developers can sell off hotel units prior to construction, enabling them to obtain construction debt and equity more easily than if they were building a traditional hotel.
Additionally, the inclusion of attractive condos within hotels can typically garner a higher sales price per square foot, allowing developers to generate cash flow to cycle back into the facility or new projects, according to Regent Street Advisors, an affiliate of The Plasencia Group, a hospitality consulting firm and financial advisor.
During the past few years, while the hotel industry was in the midst of a cyclical downturn, condo hotels have been an attractive way for developers to get deals done. In fact, many luxury hotels would not have been built without a residential component, says Dan Peek, managing director at Regent Street.
Lenders are more willing to finance condo hotels with only 20% equity because they are banking on projected condo sales prior to construction. Traditional loans require about 30% to 40% equity, says Peek. "Assuming sales happen as projected, the loan is guaranteed by condo purchases."
Additionally, partnering with luxury and boutique brands can help turn up the heat even more on this already hot segment. So, it's no surprise that developers are turning to upscale brands like Four Seasons as well as Marriott's Ritz-Carlton, and Starwood's St. Regis and W hotels. Even some other luxury brands, which haven't traditionally offered a mixed-use residential component, are entering the playing field, including Hyatt's Grand Hyatt, Mandarin Oriental, and Hilton's Conrad.
"Let's not ignore what drives corporate development — profit," says Jim Alderman, senior vice president of development at Starwood Hotel & Resorts Worldwide.
World-class example
In Manhattan, The Related Cos. and Apollo Real Estate Advisors developed the new Time Warner Center, which opened to great fanfare in 2004. The center includes The Mandarin Oriental luxury hotel, as well as The Residences at the Mandarin Oriental — luxury condos ranging from 540 sq. ft. to 8,400 sq. ft.
The complex also encompasses Time Warner World Headquarters, The Shops at Columbus Circle, One Central Park condominiums, 211,000 sq. ft. of Class-A office space, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and 504 parking spaces.
"There's no question about it: The Mandarin Oriental name is a great selling tool. There's a certain 'buzz' about becoming a permanent guest here," says Susan de Franca, president of residential sales at Related Cos.
Related and Apollo own 50% of the 251-unit luxury hotel, while Mandarin Oriental owns the other 50%. The hotel's 65 residential apartments, located on floors 64-80, have sold at prices ranging from $2.5 million to $30 million. Unlike some other condo hotel projects, where the condos are rented out as hotel suites when not in use, the residences at Mandarin Oriental are used only by owners and their guests, says de Franca. "This was a decision we made with Mandarin — to ensure exclusivity for owners."
Mandarin Oriental owners were willing to pay higher prices to buy luxury apartments at the upscale hotel complex, where they have access to all the hotel services and amenities. "Certainly the price per square foot is higher than the building next to us, but our residents have access to our pool and fitness center, plus they get priority treatment at our restaurant and spa," says Kristin Ruble, director of sales and marketing at The Mandarin Oriental.
Flurry of new projects
With the success of the Mandarin Oriental in New York and the high demand for serviced hotel apartments in urban markets nationwide, the hotel company has teamed up with CWB Boylston to open a similar property in Boston in September 2007.
CWB Boylston is building a 150-room Mandarin Oriental hotel, 50 ultra-luxury residences, 35 rental apartments, retail shops and restaurants in the heart of Boston's Back Bay. Almost all of the residences have been sold — sans advertising or marketing — for $2 million to almost $10 million, says CWB Partner Robin Brown.
Developer Espirito Santo Group also is realizing success with the branded mixed-use model. It partnered with Hilton's luxury Conrad brand to open the first newly built Conrad hotel in the U.S. last year in Miami. The Conrad Miami is part of the Espirito Santo Plaza and includes 203 rooms, 116 residences and 11 penthouse suites. Since the complex opened, the Conrad name has helped drive condo sales, as well as generate business from office tenants in the complex. Many tenants have rented meeting space in the hotel, and some of the executives have even bought condos at the Conrad.
"This is truly a project where everyone benefits. The synergy works," says Bill Ross, president of Estoril Inc., which is working with Espirito Santo to sell condos and lease office space. Some 93% of the complex's 300,000 sq. ft. of office space is leased out, making Espirito Santo Plaza one of the fastest lease-ups in Miami history, says Ross.
Brand power
There's no question about it: Buyers are willing to ante up more money for a branded luxury condominium than a similar condo in another building. "The brand is important because people are buying into a lifestyle, and the brand is an extension of that lifestyle," says Mark Ellert, a partner at Langford Development LLC and president of IAG Florida.
Langford is developing The Regent Orlando in Winter Park, while IAG serves as the development manager. IAG also is the project manager of Luxury Resorts International's The Atlantic, a Fort Lauderdale condo hotel which is part of Starwood's Luxury Collection. "The brand implies a sense of credibility to the buyer and certainly to the transient traveler," says Ellert.
Starwood's Alderman agrees, adding that Starwood is currently working with top developers around the world and plans to add a residential component to all of its St. Regis hotels. Future development of St. Regis, W and Luxury Collection properties will also include a residential mix, says Bill Linehan, Starwood's vice president of marketing and brand alignment.
The prospect of buying into a brand that exemplifies an exclusive lifestyle can be enticing, adds Joseph Long, executive vice president of acquisitions and development at San Francisco-based Kimpton Hotel & Restaurant Group. In fact, a developer of a branded residential hotel is not only selling prospective buyers the actual units, but a whole package that encompasses the hotel brand's image and added services, says Long.
Kimpton, which is actively discussing several potential mixed-use projects with developers, is currently working with The Falor Cos. to convert the Mayfair Hotel in Coconut Grove to a condominium hotel. Most of the individually owned suites will be rented as hotel suites to transient travelers when not used by owners. Kimpton will also be managing a new Hotel Palomar in Dallas, a mixed-use hotel with residential condos and retail shops. The hotel, which will be Kimpton's fourth Hotel Palomar, will open in late 2006. Unlike the Mayfair, the units will be sold as homes and not rented as hotel rooms, says Long.
Without a doubt, the right brand and hotel operator can help developers succeed with their mixed-use condo hotel projects, says Robert Falor, Falor's CEO and president. Based in Miami and Chicago, Falor owns and operates 11 condo hotels in key markets including South Florida and Chicago. The company recently announced the acquisition of the Hotel 71 in Chicago and plans to convert it to a branded luxury condominium hotel. It is the company's third condo hotel project to be announced in Chicago in the past 12 months.
Falor will spend $18.5 million to upgrade the 456-unit hotel, which will include a new 7,000 sq. ft. spa. The hotel will then be branded and units will be sold to individual buyers for $395,000 and up. Falor is currently looking at other hotels in Boston, San Francisco and New York to convert to branded condo hotels.
"We believe this hotel model will continue to grow. The more we educate consumers, the more demand there will be," Falor says.
Dollars and sense
Developers are catching on to the many benefits of the condominium hotel structure. For starters, selling hotel rooms, suites or penthouses to individual owners helps developers pay for their hotels while spreading the risk to multiple owners. This model has worked particularly well during the hotel industry downturn as lenders weren't as willing to finance traditional luxury hotel deals.
"Condo hotels have become an achievable way to finance hotels," says Brent Howie, president of Clearwater, Fla.-based Provident Management, which owns a group of condo hotels including The Mutiny Hotel in Miami and Ocean Point Suites in Key Largo.
Yet, developers also must keep in mind that the individuals who purchase units are not lenders. "They have their own reasons for purchasing and they are not doing it to loan you the money to buy your hotel," says Howie
Developers must also keep in mind the inherent risks. Rising rates could deter some buyers from purchasing condo hotel units. Also, increasing construction costs can make it difficult for developers to price pre-construction sales. If costs go up, for example, the unit becomes more costly to build, eating away at profits. According to Regent Street's Peek, developers also have to remember that the basic rule of real estate applies big time to condo hotels: location, location, location.
Worth the Price?
Condo hotel units may be more expensive than similar traditional condos, but there are reasons for this: Buyers don't have to worry about maintenance, and they have the opportunity to recoup some of their costs through hotel rentals.
And, unlike traditional condo units, condo hotel owners have the added benefit of being part of a hotel, which attracts a constant stream of guests through brand marketing and toll-free reservation systems, say developers.
Developers can justify a higher sales price for hotel condos — particularly branded luxury projects — because they can offer owners hotel services and amenities. A higher price tag enables more money to be allocated to the project. The result: more luxurious finishes, larger hotel suites, extravagant spas, and more.
The cash flow generated by residential sales at The Regent Orlando at Winter Park, for example, enabled Langford to build a higher-quality product. "Here we built an ultra-luxury suite hotel and our buyers helped pay for it," says Ellert.
Certainly, the cash flow doesn't end after condos are sold. When owners allow the hotel company to rent their units when not in use, developers continue to split the rental income — usually 50/50 — with the owners. This can be a willing proposition long-term, as long as developers make it known upfront that the rental arrangement benefits the owners as well, says Howie, adding that it's important to give buyers a financial incentive to buy at your property.
Some hotel companies, for example, are now asking for upfront fees from owners to pay for hotel services, in addition to the 50% or more of all rental income collected by developers. Savvy buyers and developers should be leery of these types of arrangements.

Quick Primer on the Hotel Condo Model
There are many variations of the condo hotel model. One of the more popular concepts includes the straightforward condo hotel, whereby a developer sells most or all of the hotel rooms. The owners can then elect to occupy their condos or put the units back into rental inventory when not in use.
The hotel operator rents the units out — just like regular hotel rooms — and revenue generated is typically split 50/50 between the owner and the developer. The developer, in turn, continues to own common spaces, such as restaurants, spas, pool area, and lobbies.
Another quickly emerging model is the mixed-use luxury hotel with a residential component. In this structure, the luxury condominiums on the top hotel floors or in an adjacent building are sold to individuals, many of whom occupy the apartments full-time.
These units are not part of the hotel inventory, yet owners have access to all hotel facilities and services, such as daily housekeeping, room service, the gym, pool, and more.
In some cases, developers encompass both models in a project, which may include some condos that can be used as rentals and some high-end homes that are not rented to transient travelers.
Regardless of which condo hotel model is the most appropriate for a project, developers should keep in mind that condo hotels can be one of the most lucrative and risky hotel structures, according to industry veterans.
"There are certainly lots of risks involved — sales risks, interest rate risks and liability," explains Dan Peek, managing director of Regent Street Advisors, a hospitality consulting firm and financial advisor. "Yet, if executed properly, the potential rewards outweigh the risks."

PPRNet - Primary (Care) Practices Research Network
PPRNet is a primary care practice-based learning and research organization designed to improve health care in its member practices while conducting research important for the entire primary health care system. Established in 1995, PPRNet links practices across North America in its work which has led to revitalization of primary care practices, sustained federal research funding, numerous publications, and national recognition. All PPRNet practices use Electronic Health Records (EHR); many long-time members were pioneers in EHR use.
PPRNet has 3 primary aims:
- To turn EHR data into actionable information for quality improvement and reports for quality incentive programs.
- To empirically test theoretically sound primary care quality improvement interventions.
- To disseminate interventions that improve primary health care.
PPRNet achieves these aims by:
- Providing practice and provider performance reports and patient registries on 62 evidence-based clinical quality measures.
- Meeting criteria as a CMS approved Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR) and Specialized Registry under the HITECH EHR Incentive Program for Eligible Professionals.
- Conducting quality improvement research projects in which research team members work on-site with practices to help improve care.
- Hosting national meetings and webinars to share "best practices" for implementing PPRNet findings into practice.
- Publishing our findings in peer-reviewed, high quality journals and through widely accessible web-based tools.
Many practices have leveraged their participation in PPRNet to receive Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) recognition, receive Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) and other value-based payment incentives, and satisfy continuing medical education and specialty maintenance of certification requirements. PPRNet practices report rediscovering the joy of medicine, improved practice morale and staff retention, and deep gratification from working and learning with their colleagues across the U.S. and Canada.

Vietnam Blues
The Washington Post switches up its Justice Department scandal coverage today, stuffing the fired prosecutors and leading with news that the FBI used an illegal procedure to get thousands of phone records—then tried to retroactively legalize its actions, botching that, too. The Los Angeles Times lead says non-=combat efforts to get at the "underlying causes" in the War on Terror are being squeezed out by the emphasis on warfighting. The New York Times leads with two pieces: one on the diametrically opposite Iraq views held by Vietnam veterans Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Kan. and Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and one on an unexpected jump in Sunni—rather than Shiite—attacks brought on by the "surge."
A Justice Department investigation turned up "uncontrolled" binge usage of "exigent circumstance" letters by the FBI. The letters "circumvented" the law by asking for call records from phone companies, now, and indicating that all the legal mumbo-jumbo would be set straight later. In many cases, it never was. Recently the FBI tried to "clean up" the problem by quickly scribbling requests for the information they had already requisitioned, screwing up the law again in the process. Investigations, hearings, and disciplinary action to follow.
The LAT leads with an investigative piece that says Iraq, Afghanistan, and special forces engagements are eating up the War on Terror budget while "soft power" programs languish, their directors resigning in frustration. The paper knows this because (it notes, proudly) it read budget documents and interviewed "dozens of current and former U.S. officials" to get the big picture. The article's main gripe, though, is about a "key strategic program" that nearly closed because of funding cuts—a program that the LAT beatifies in a near-identical article inside. Key indeed is the Regional Strategic Initiative; its plight "heartbreaking."
While most thought the "surge" would force a showdown with Shiite militias, Shiites are lying low. Sunni car bombers from the "Baghdad belt" villages ringing the city are picking up the slack. The NYT says U.S. troops have to clear these to restore order. Inside, the NYT says Sunni insurgents in Anbar exploded three truck bombs filled with chlorine gas in order to intimidate moderate tribes allied against them. The WP gets all the above information into a single, concise article on A20 with useful chlorine bomb factoids. The LAT focuses solely on the events in Anbar.
The NYT also fronts a look at the Iraq war in numbers and graphs. Iraqi inflation is going down! (Thanks Iran.)
The other NYT lead compares the opposing Iraq views of Vietnam veterans Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. and Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Kan. The two men are like case studies in our long, national Rorschach test.
Below the fold, the NYT fronts new details on the firing of U.S. attorney David Iglesias. He didn't go for the jugular in several politically charged corruption cases. Conservatives responded with a righteous storm of election-year, swing-state ire that reached all the way to the White House. The New Mexico GOP on Iglesias' subsequent dismissal: "Hallelujah."
Inside, NYT analysis says U.S. attorneys have always been politicized, just not this politicized.
The LAT fronts speculation that the White House is already looking beyond Alberto Gonzales' resignation in an attempt to protect Rove and the Prez.
The WP also fronts—and the LAT goes inside with—yesterday's protest, billed provocatively as the 40th anniversary of a 1967 march on the Pentagon. The event drew anti-anti-war protesters, many clad "in black leather motorcycle jackets," alarmed by a rumor that the Vietnam memorial might be vandalized. The two sides exchanged some of the 20th century's most well-worn insults.
One anarchist-heavy group of protestors attempted to reach the Pentagon wall only to be kept back by riot police. They then held a vote and decided to retreat peaceably.
The WP profiles Robert Levy, the Cato Institute fellow who successfully got the Washington, D.C., handgun ban struck down in court. Levy doesn't have to live in an armed D.C., but the WP staff does. Read the piece if you want to see how a newspaper expresses (bitter) emotions.
The NYT also explains what the heck ever happened to the Litvinenko affair. The Russians are now investigating claims that Litvinenko tried to poison the others with radioactive material: "Sorting out the truth may ultimately be impossible."
Hugo Chavez is trying to make Venezuela's currency, the Bolivar, strong again by knocking off a few decimals and renaming it the "Bolivar fuerte."
In another sign that Sen. John McCain's "Straight Talk Express" trip is seducing reporters, the WP now paints McCain's stand on Iraq as a form of stubborn nobility. "I know it's trite but I'd rather lose a campaign than lose a war," WP quotes.
Anyone who's been on the JetBlue e-mail list over the past few months knows airlines can be sort of cute when they're sorry. Well, the NYT fronts news that such airline apologies are becoming an institution. Then the paper somehow wanders into a story about life and love, getting a little too cute in the process.
The NYT style section has a piece on the "killer app" meant to revolutionize the 2008 election: MySpace. The social-networking site has a new channel for candidates who want to mobilize the site's politically untapped teenyboppers and indie rockers. Technologies like "digital yard signs" will allow campaign messages to "spread virally." In what sounds like a reverse of the MySpace status quo, "the kids are inviting the adults to the party." Ten presidential hopefuls are already on MySpace, including a congressman named "Ron Paul."

Q: Our condominium has a line item in the budget for an insurance deductible of $5,000. Our actual deductible is $112,000 per building, and we have three buildings. Each year the amount is rolled over to the general fund as surplus because it has not been needed for several years.
I am a director and at a recent directors seminar the speaker said that this line item could not be placed in regular reserves but if I understood him correctly a special reserve fund could be established. Would you comment on this please?
M.C., Naples
A: A couple of decades back, deductibles were almost nonexistent. Since Hurricane Andrew and the four hurricanes in 2004, insurance companies have steadily increased the deductibles. All boards should review their insurance coverage and their growing deductibles.
A short lesson in budgets: The board must create three distinct budgets: the income budget, the operational budget, and the reserve budget. The income budget equals the sum of the reserve budget and the operational budget. The operational budget is the sum of all known and estimated expenses for the coming 12 months. To help boards to correctly calculate the reserve budget, the state has published a book: www.myfloridalicense.com/dbpr/lsc/documents/BudgetsandReserves.Master06092010.pdf.
It can be downloaded in a PDF file or you can call 850-488-1122 and ask for the Budget and Reserve Handbook.
As to the recommendations that you received at the seminar: I believe he was referring to a line item in the reserve budget. This would mean that each year your total collected would be placed in a separate account to be used in the event of a disaster.
Using the figures in your question, you should establish a reserve account to cover deductibles of approximately $336,000. Your $5,000 a year is totally inadequate. At only $5,000 a year, it would take more than 67 years to cover $336,000. Your owners need to be aware that in the event of an emergency, a special assessment would be needed to cover expenses.
I would further suggest that you engage professionals to assist you with budgets and that you acquire a reserve study from a professional.
Q: I am requesting information on common areas in a homeowners association. Since every member is insured, is it necessary to have additional insurance? I am a newly elected director and treasurer and do not want to overpay.
L.T., Stuart
A: When owners buy insurance, it covers only their property, not common areas. If the board does not purchase adequate insurance, there are gaps in your coverage. At a minimum, your association's common areas include roads, an entrance, and maybe sidewalks. You need to insure against accidents and liability claims.
While it may not appear that such common areas could be damaged, a natural or man-made disaster could rip holes in your roads and sidewalks or cause injury. If trees are planted in the common areas, they could be blown over and fall down. A wall or signage at your entrance could be damaged by a vehicle. The homeowners association needs to ensure the common areas. Obviously if your association has buildings, swimming pools, or recreation facilities, it's even more critical to have insurance coverage.
For questions about insurance coverage, the board should seek advice from your attorney and insurance agent.
Q: We have owners who are in arrears and the board has chosen to accept partial payments in the belief that at least the owners are paying "something." This condition has existed for three or more years.
I suspect you will say that the board may need to be voted out; I fully agree. The most qualified owner to run the operation does not wish to do so. Question: what is the Florida statute that covers this issue?
G.F., Orlando
A: You will not find instructions in the statutes about partial payments. The statute does say the board does not have a right to accept less than full payment of the fees (FS 718.112 & FS 718.115). If the board has followed collection procedures as outlined in the statutes, sometimes a payment system may be established. But, this should be under the guidance of an attorney who has filed proper liens and foreclosures against a delinquent owner. It should not be a board's decision without legal guidance to accept a payment system.

ADLIB is supplying lighting, sound equipment and crew to the current UK tour by Welsh rockers Lostprophets.
The lighting design was a collaboration between ADLIB's Ian Tomlinson and freelance LD Rob Lister (also the tour's production manager), with active input from Lostprophets lead singer Ian Watkins, who always has a myriad of ideas and concepts to add to the mix.
Watkins specifically wanted a moody, edgy feel to the lighting and a complete departure from their previous 'rock' style light shows, so there is no front truss, and much of the set is darkly lit. The only front lighting directly on the 6 band members is supplied by 3 pairs of individual PAR36 DWEs which are mounted on custom mic stands, about 30 cm off the floor. These were picked for their low intensity and because they emit an understated warm glow that creates nice shadows and movement across the backdrop.
All 24 of the moving lights in the rig are Martin Professional MAC 301 LED moving wash lights, which have an incredibly shallow profile, weigh just 9Kgs and can be squeezed into a myriad of small gaps and spaces. There are 10 MAC 301s on the back truss, 6 on two downstage booms - 3 a side - for low level cross stage lighting as well as blasting into the audience, 4 along the downstage edge of the wedge line and 4 on the set risers.
These are part of a batch of new MAC 301s that ADLIB has just purchased, and have been an immediate hit with Lister. They are incredibly bright, offering a very "tasty" 13 - 36 degree zoom, and their light weight means that their back truss - built from Thomas Stacker truss and also containing 3 linear 4-lite Moles - complete with motors and rigging - weighs a mere 250 Kgs!
They are using Light Tape to produce two glowing phosphorescent strips of blue and red along the bottom rail of the back truss and another one along the front of the risers.
Lister is using a WholeHog 3 console to run the show. This was chosen by Ian Tomlinson, and is the first time that Lister has used one on tour, which is proving a good experience. He has been working for the band for 6 months and is really enjoying working their wide dynamic range of music as well as experiencing the ADLIB treatment which he describes as "First class" from both a production manager and an LD's viewpoint.
He explains that Watkins wanted a pseudo Bladerunner feel to the show, and designed the backdrop to reflect this, incorporating lighting and visual ideas to accompany the theme.
The sound department is being looked after by ADLIB's Hassane Es Siahi (FOH) and Paul Roberts (monitors) working closely with the band's two engineers, Alan "Doof" McCann (FOH) and Dave Belis (monitors).
It's a Nexo Alpha system, spec'd by Doof as an ideal PA for the theatre/town hall type of venues on the itinerary. The left and right stacks go up to a maximum of 11 x M3 mid high boxes per side, and a total of 22 B1 bass cabinets giving a serious rock 'n' roll look and a sonic attitude to suit! There are also 12 Nexo Alpha S2 subs a side ground stacked, and a row of ADLIB A122s for infill.
This is all time aligned and EQ'd with a Lake system, which is also used to create a number of zones so different areas of the PA can easily be turned up or down to suit the room and the space. The crossovers are Nexo NX242, and it's powered with Camco Tecton amps for the mid highs and Crown VZ5000s for the bass and subs.
The FOH desk is a Soundcraft Vi6, chosen by Doof because it had intuitive and easy-to-use touch screens and methodology. He's taking full advantage of all the onboard effects and facilities, and there's also plenty of headroom to accommodate the 2 opening acts. A fibre multi is used to connect to stage.
ADLIB is supplying another Vi6 for monitors, with a total of 14 d&b m2 wedges, 5 of which are used for the supports, all driven by D12 amps. The side fills are an L-Acoustics ARCs box and an SB28 sub each side. However these are all for the vibe, atmospherics and air movement only - as the entire Lostprophets band uses IEMs.
Seven mixes of Sennheiser IEMs (the bands own) go to the desk plus an additional channel for listening.
Keith O'Neill the band's Tour Manager has worked with ADLIB on several tours, "They are a joy to work with - we all make a great team, and everything is running extremely smoothly".

Like most NFL teams, the Eagles will not play their starters in the preseason finale. Next Thursday's game against the Jets will be almost exclusively backups and those players fighting for the final remaining roster spots.
For the Eagles, the interesting question is where Michael Vick fits in.
His six plays last night were his first game action since 2006 as the Eagles tried to "get his feet wet," in coach Andy Reid's words. Vick did not have the benefit of a full training camp and is trying to get acclimated to the offense with post-practice sessions with the coaches. After the preseason ends, he faces a suspension that could keep him off the field for up to five weeks. He said he has not heard yet.
Asked whether Vick would play against the Jets, Reid said, "There's a chance."
Asked whether he wanted to play, Vick said: "Hopefully, whatever the plan is I have to go with it. I may be out there, maybe not. We'll have to see."
Vick put himself at 70 percent physically and said the better shape he gets in, the more he can help the team.
"Regardless of what we are doing, I will be able to make it work," he said. "If it's at the quarterback position or the wildcat formation, regardless of what we are doing, if I am out there, I just want to be productive. That is why I go home and study every night, that's why I prepare myself and that's why I am spending that extra time after practice trying to get my body back to playing shape. I am almost there, about 70 percent there. So, right now I am just going off my natural ability. Once I get myself into top shape, the sky is the limit. I just want to use my abilities to help this team."
Here are some reactions to Vick's performance last night:
Hank Baskett: "He looked good. He definitely has an arm on him. He read the defense [well]. It's all about being on the same page. No matter what happens, it's all about the quarterback and the receiver being on the same page ... He's been showing great signs, and great character and poise throughout practice. And he came out here and did it tonight. He played a good game."
Jason Avant: "He made a couple guys miss. It's going to take him a while to get after them. Being away for two years, I thought he did good. He stepped into a couple throws. He looks better than most people are expecting. This is a game -- at this level, with these types of athletes -- that you just can't come back into and be the same player. But tonight, he proved that he still has a lot left to play."
Jeremy Maclin: "I thought he looked alright. He only got a few snaps, but I thought he executed when he was in there. I thought he did very well."
DeSean Jackson: "I think it was really important for him to get out there. Get some things going and get into that rhythm, as far as being with the starters, flying around and making a lot of plays. But we all still have a lot of work to do. As we get to practice more, we can keep grinding and keep getting better ... I think he looked pretty good to me. There was time when if he looked at me I was open in the corner of the end-zone and it would have been a touchdown. He did good and I'm looking forward to heading into the season and moving from here."
Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio: "I'm happy for him that he is getting the opportunity to resume his career. I wish him the best with that."

Campus Improvements – Original Cafeteria Comes Down
It served its original purpose and more. The building most recently known as The Distance Ed Building came crashing down in a matter of hours, as a demolition crew that could be heard across campus smashed the ceilings and the walls bit by bit, being careful not to damage Shortess Chapel right next door.
The building housed the original cafeteria, but was also more recently the home of the Business Office and the Copy Center. It served a variety of purposes over the years, as well.
A few longtime staff members stood by and watched the demolition, sharing memories of the building and noting its versatility over the last 40-plus years. Tammy Tumey, who works in the Registrar's Office, remembers the building having a loading dock where goods were delivered for a campus community co-op.
"No matter the weather once a month I spent a Thursday night with a crew of others bagging each order," Tumey recalled. "It was a great place for staff and student families to get to know each other."
David Morrison, the former general manager of CIU radio station WMHK, says when he first came to Columbia in 1975, one of the CIU fringe benefits was a quart of fresh Tropicana orange juice for each member of the CIU family each week – a gift from Anthony Rossi, the owner of Tropicana.
"The Tropicana truck unloaded the orange juice each week into the refrigerated food locker, the only surviving part of the original campus cafeteria, which sat where the Extension Education wing was later placed," Morrison remembered. "I still have Tropicana cartons storing various items in my garage at home."
Long-term campus improvement plans for the now-vacant spot include possible classroom and/or office space.

Yet many organizations find themselves mired in a maddening reality of fragmented or incomplete offerings, frustrated users and missed opportunities. Not only are companies often dealing with layers of incompatible technologies, but also the technologies themselves are often disconnected from the way business is actually conducted.
Enter Unify.
Our mission is to unify multiple networks, devices and applications into one engaging, easy-to-use experience for our customers:
- Across virtually any communications channel, whether it's voice, video, social or search

Campus Life
A proud sponsor of happy students since 1770.
This is how you always dreamed college would be: An exciting, world-class education in an exciting, world-class city. Where a school day might start with an outdoors discussion of international economic policy and wrap up with a sunset bonfire at the beach. Where a walk home from the library includes free admission to an open-air jazz concert.
This is the College of Charleston. This is the good life.
Charleston is the best small city in America. Period. There's simply no other town that combines the laid-back beauty, rich history, vibrant culture and diverse social life of our hometown.
The College of Charleston campus is more like a hip, vibrant neighborhood than a fenced-off institution. You'll live and eat in modern residence halls and fresh campus restaurants just steps from the heart of historic downtown.
You'll be busy, but the best kind of busy. Busy trying to squeeze in a trip to the county park's climbing wall between volunteering at a charity dance marathon and attending your roommate's art opening. With more than 200 student clubs and organizations, there's no better place to meet new people, try new things and get involved.
With more than 240 years in the business, we've learned a thing or two about keeping our students happy, healthy and successful. Come for a visit and we'll show you what makes our college and our college life so special.

Assignment: Your memorable Tube journeys
iREPORTS FILED
iREPORTERS SIGNED UP
Created January 4, 2013 by
London, United Kingdom
The London Underground, the iconic transport system that gets busy Londoners from A to B (sometimes via C and D), is celebrating its 150th anniversary in 2013.
The "Tube", the oldest known underground railway in the world, carries more than one billion passengers a year, with around 3.5 million journeys made each day on 11 lines from 270 stations.
To celebrate the Tube's birthday, we want to hear about your most memorable Tube journeys. Use it to commute to work? Attempted the Tube challenge? Documented your first time on the Tube? Witnessed (or been part of) an unexpected marriage proposal? If you are outside of the UK -- do you have an underground system and what is it like?
Send us your stories – and pictures – and you could help shape our coverage on CNN. If you are on Instagram, you can submit images with the hashtags #cnnireport and #tube150.
Please note: London Underground forbids flash photography on its station platforms for driver safety reasons but non-flash photography is fine.

Head Injury/Traumatic Brain Injury
Head injury and traumatic brain injury are considered medical or clinical diagnoses. Individuals qualified to render a diagnosis for these disorders are practitioners who have been trained in the assessment of head injury or traumatic brain injury. Recommended practitioners may include: physicians; neurologists; licensed clinical, rehabilitation, and school psychologists; neuropsychologists; and psychiatrists. The diagnostician should be an impartial individual who is not a family member of the student.
Documentation serves as the foundation that legitimizes a student's request for appropriate accommodations. Documentation for eligibility should be current (the age of acceptable documentation is dependent upon the disabling condition, the current status of the student, and the student's request for accommodations). The following guidelines are provided to assist the service provider in collaborating with each student to determine appropriate accommodations.
Recommended documentation includes:
- A clear statement of the head injury or traumatic brain injury. In clear, direct language, the report must identify the substantial limitation of a major life activity presented by the injury;
- A summary of cognitive and achievement measures used and evaluation results, including all scores, used to make the diagnosis;
- A summary of present residual symptoms which meet the criteria for diagnosis;
- Medical information relating to the student's needs to include the impact of medication on the student's ability to meet the demands of the postsecondary environment;
- Suggestions of reasonable accommodations that might be appropriate at the postsecondary level. These recommendations should be based on significant functional limitations and should be supported by the diagnosis.
Further assessment by an appropriate professional may be required if coexisting learning disabilities or other disabling conditions are indicated. Appropriate accommodations are collaboratively determined by the student and the Office of Accessibility Services of Adams State University.

One Kansas State quarterback's insistence on remaining at the position has garnered most of the attention during the Texans' three-day rookie minicamp.
In truth, the Texans have two former Kansas State quarterbacks participating. One is Collin Klein, who played quarterback throughout college and came to the Texans on a tryout basis at quarterback. The other is Justin Tuggle, who went to Kansas State as a quarterback but switched to a position where he would have better opportunities.
"Collin, he was having a great year at quarterback, and I knew there wasn't going to be too much competition after that," Tuggle said. "So I switched."
Rather than sit behind Klein in college, Tuggle (6-3, 244) carved space for himself at linebacker. A year and a half after making the switch, Tuggle signed with the Texans as an undrafted free agent at outside linebacker.
"I'm happy that I'm here," Tuggle, 23, said. "I'm happy that I'm playing the position that I am and I'm happy that I'm getting the reps that I am right now at the rookie camp and just trying to get ahead so that when everyone else is here, I can just play fast and not have to worry about the assignments because I got a little bit ahead of the game."
Tuggle started his college career at Boston College, but a year after the school's coaching change, he looked elsewhere. He knew Carolina quarterback Cam Newton from his youth and chose to follow Newton's path to Blinn College in Brenham. Newton went to Blinn between his time at Florida and Auburn, where he won a BCS national championship. Tuggle, too, wanted to hone his skills at a quarterback.
From Blinn, Tuggle went to Kansas State, still as a quarterback, until he asked for the change to linebacker. It was a position his father Jessie had played in the NFL for 14 seasons.
"I liked that you go out there and I can just show my athleticism," Tuggle said. "It's more reaction than quarterback is where there's so much going on, you have to know this route, that route. It's all based off your arm. At linebacker, you use your whole body to make plays."

Storm Water and Water Pollution Control
On July 15, 1999, the SWRCB issued the "Order No. 99-06-DWQ, NPDES No.CAS000003, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit, Statewide Storm Water Permit and Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) for the State of California, Department of Transportation (Caltrans)"; hereby called the "Permit". The Permit regulates storm water discharges from Caltrans properties, facilities and activities, and requires that the Caltrans construction program comply with the requirements of the "State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Order No. 99-08-DWQ, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit No. CAS000002, Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) for Discharges of Storm Water Runoff Associated with Construction Activity (General Permit)" issued by the SWRCB, to regulate discharges from construction sites that disturb 5 acres (ac) or more.
Beginning March 10, 2003, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and SWRCB regulations will regulate discharges from projects with soil disturbance of 1 acre or more by amending the General Permit and thus including coverage of projects with soil disturbance of 1 acre or more.
Based on a petition challenging the General Permit, the provisions for monitoring, sampling and analysis were modified pursuant to a court order. The modified provisions were issued as Resolution No. 2001-046, "Modification of Water Quality Order 99-08-DWQ State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit For Storm Water Discharges Associated With Construction Activity (General Permit)", adopted by the SWRCB on April 26, 2001. The modifications require permittees to implement specific sampling and analytical procedures to determine if BMPs implemented on a construction site are:
- Preventing further impairment by sediment in storm waters discharged directly into waters listed as impaired (Clean Water Act Section 303(d) List [303(d) List]) for sediment, silt, or turbidity; and
- Preventing other pollutants that are known or should be known by permittees to occur on construction sites and that can not be visually observed or detected in storm water discharges, from causing or contributing to exceedances of water quality objectives.
The Permit gives RWQCBs the option to specify additional requirements they may consider necessary to meet water quality standards. In addition, RWQCBs retain the authority to issue NPDES permits for individual projects or adopt Regional Permits. Copies of the Permit and the General Permit can be downloaded from the SWRCB Web site, at:
- Storm Water and Water Pollution Control (Includes SWPPP - WPCPP Templates)
