President Trump released a video to celebrate Mother's Day, and Stephen Colbert found something lacking. "Here's the thing: In this whole video, Donald Trump doesn't once mention any of the mothers of his own children — and there's a lot to choose from," he said on Monday's Late Show. Trump also tweeted about China on Sunday, and like many people, Colbert was baffled by Trump's tweet promising jobs to Chinese phone maker ZTE. "During the campaign, Trump wouldn't shut up about how America's jobs were being stolen by China," he said. "I can't wait for his next tweet: 'Have you heard about all the problems in Mexico? We've got to let these good people into our country. Build the ramp!'"
"ZTE is no friend of the U.S.," Colbert said. U.S. spy agencies accuse it of eavesdropping on America for China and it admitted to breaking U.S. sanctions against Iran and North Korea. He recapped Monday in Jerusalem, where the U.S. inaugurated a new embassy and Palestinians were killed en masse. "Now we've just got to destabilize Antarctica and we'll have global crisis bingo," he said.
The Late Show had a few more thoughts on moving the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem.
But while the world burns, Trump is finding comfort talking to Sean Hannity, according to a new profile in New York. "They're like the Gayle and Oprah of angry old white men," Colbert said. "So what do these lovable old codgers talk about?" Apparently, TV and media criticism, and anything else that helps Trump "decompress" after a day in the Oval Office, since he doesn't live with the first lady. Trump apparently calls during the day, too, then announces it to staff. "So after a cable news pundit talks to the president of the United States, it's the president name-dropping Sean Hannity?" Colbert asked. "That's like if Beyoncé bragged about meeting the Trivago guy." Watch below. Peter Weber
Trump defender Michael Mukasey grimaces on CNN at Trump's 'zany' claim he can 'run' the Mueller probe
President Trump told Reuters on Monday that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation of the Trump campaign and Russian election interference has "played right into the Russians — if it was Russia — they played right into the Russians' hands," and he blamed the probe for hindering his ability to strengthen ties with Moscow. "I can go in, and I could do whatever — I could run it if I want," he said of the investigation. "I'm totally allowed to be involved if I wanted to be. So far, I haven't chosen to be involved." On CNN Monday night Chris Cuomo asked former Attorney General Michael Mukasey about Trump's assertion.
Up to that point in the interview, Mukasey, who served during George W. Bush's last year in office, had defended Trump's conduct in the Mueller investigation, saying the president's fear of a "perjury trap" was "not entirely unreasonable" and White House Counsel Don McGahn's decision to cooperate extensively with Mueller "was helpful" to Trump and suggested no crimes were committed by the president.
But when Cuomo asked if Trump could really take over the Mueller investigation, Mukasey rolled his eyes. "Of course not, it's ridiculous," he said. Cuomo noted that Trump says he can. "He says a lot of things," Mukasey said. "You're here to defend that proposition, by the way," Cuomo said, laughing. "Come on," Mukasey said, sighing and trying to formulate a legal rationale. "But it would be zany. We would be living in an even more unreal world than we're living in now." Watch below. Peter Weber
CNN's @ChrisCuomo asked former attorney general Michael Mukasey what his reaction would be if President Trump decided to 'run' the Mueller probe: "I would shake myself and wake up. ... It would be zany. We would be living in an even more unreal world than we're living in now." pic.twitter.com/NcZoAC8MA6

The University of Miami's football team will make history with their uniforms during the season opener against LSU on Sept. 2.
The Hurricanes will become the first college team to don uniforms, cleats, and gloves made from repurposed ocean waste. Adidas worked with Parley for the Oceans, an organization that brings attention to the amount of plastic garbage in the world's oceans, to design the uniforms.
Each uniform is made with ECONYL yarn, repurposed from fishing nets and other nylon waste, USA Today reports. The uniforms are primarily orange, with wave and palm patterns to "pay homage to South Florida landscapes." Coach Mark Richt said in a statement the team is happy to "help promote sustainability around the world," as "community service has always been an integral part of our football program."

Russian hackers are now targeting Trump-skeptical U.S. conservative groups, too, Microsoft says
Microsoft said Tuesday it has shut down another six websites created by hackers linked to Russia's military intelligence, with the newest targets the U.S. Senate and two conservative think tanks critical of Russia and President Trump, the Hudson Institute and the International Republican Institute. Microsoft won a court order last year to shut down fake web domains created by the hacking group it calls Strontium, also known as Fancy Bear and APT 28, and including the six just shuttered, the company has used this legal authority to shut down 84 fake Strontium-created sites.
"We are now seeing another uptick in attacks," Microsoft President and chief legal officer Brad Smith told The New York Times on Monday. "These are organizations that are informally tied to Republicans," he added, "so we see them broadening beyond the sites they have targeted in the past." Microsoft discovered an attempted Strontium attack on Sen. Claire McCaskill's (D-Mo.) network in July, and the same group hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016, according to an indictment from Special Counsel Robert Mueller. "This activity is most fundamentally focused on disrupting democracy," Smith told The Associated Press, adding, "We have no doubt in our minds" who is responsible for the fake sites.
The spoofed websites of the Senate, Hudson Institute, and IRI contained malware that would make anyone who clicked on the sites vulnerable to hacking, surveillance, and data theft, but Smith said there's no indication anyone actually clicked on the sites while they were live. Thomas Rid at Johns Hopkins University says "Microsoft is playing whack-a-mole here," because the sites are "easy to register and bring back up" when shut down. "These attacks keep happening because they work," he said. "They are successful again and again." You can read more about how Russia is working to disrupt America's 2018 elections at The Week.

Protesters tore down a statue of a Confederate soldier Monday night on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Silent Sam was erected in 1913, a gift from the United Daughters of the Confederacy. In a statement, the university said there was a crowd of about 250 protesters, and a small group brought Silent Sam down, adding: "Tonight's actions were dangerous, and we are very fortunate that no one was injured. We are investigating the vandalism and assessing the full extent of the damage." Gov. Roy Cooper's (D) official Twitter account posted a message saying he "understands that many people are frustrated by the pace of change and he shares their frustration, but violent destruction of public property has no place in our communities."
For years, students, alumni, and faculty members have been calling for the removal of the controversial statue. CBS News reports that recently, UNC Board of Governors Chairman Harry Smith said "neither UNC-Chapel Hill nor the UNC system have the legal authority to unilaterally relocate the Silent Sam statue," and there was a meeting scheduled for Wednesday in the state Capitol to discuss the monument.

What's old is new again, with MTV announcing that a reboot of The Hills is in the works.
The Hills, a spinoff of the classic teen reality show Laguna Beach, aired on MTV from 2006 to 2010. A promo for The Hills: New Beginnings aired during Monday night's VMAs, and several of the show's stars — Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Audrina Patridge, Jason Wahler, Justin Bobby Brescia, Stephanie Pratt, and Frankie Delgado — were at the ceremony, posing together on the red carpet.
The Hills: New Beginnings will focus on their lives in Los Angeles now, featuring their children, spouses, and friends. Two Hills stars were notably absent on Monday night: Lauren Conrad and Kristin Cavallari, who now has her own reality show, E's Very Cavallari.
A person close to Conrad told People she's content with her life as a new mom, wife, and fashion designer, and although she was the star of both Laguna Beach and The Hills, she won't appear on the reboot. "She's in a different place in her life," the friend said. "But she wants everyone to enjoy themselves. She wishes everyone the best." The Hills: New Beginnings will premiere in 2019. Watch the way-too-short promo below. Catherine Garcia
Trump wanted to pick a fight with ex-CIA chief John Brennan. So far, 250 national security officials have sided with Brennan.
There are a couple of theories on why President Trump revoked the security clearance of former CIA Director John Brennan.
Two White House officials told The Washington Post that Trump viscerally hates Brennan and believes targeting him made the president look strong and decisive, adding that Trump has the paperwork ready to hit other officials tied to the Trump-Russia investigation. Four sources close to Trump told Axios that Trump discovered, thanks to Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), that he could revoke security clearances unilaterally, like issuing pardons and signing executives orders, and he's enjoying the thrill and instant gratification of another absolute power.
Another common theory is that Trump is trying to silence dissent within the intelligence community. But Trump's Twitter feed bolsters a theory by Eli Lake, who argued in Bloomberg that "far from trying to silence Brennan, Trump is elevating him. He wants to make Brennan the face of the so-called resistance. This is the Trump playbook. Why do you think he keeps tweeting about Maxine Waters?" Trump views Brennan as "a perfect adversary," Lake says, because he distracts from Trump's other scandals, represents the so-called "deep state" Trump rails against, and makes "an easy political target."
Trump has been tweeting about Brennan all weekend and throughout Monday, but since he moved against him last week, basically the entire intelligence and foreign policy community not currently working for Trump has publicly criticized the president and his politicization of national security. The first dissent was from retired Adm. William McRaven, who oversaw the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, and then more than a dozen CIA chiefs and deputy chiefs from every administration dating back to Ronald Reagan's signed their own statement, followed by 60 prominent former CIA analysts and officials, and 177 other former U.S. national security and foreign policy officials released their own letter on Monday. You can read all their names and titles at The Washington Post. Peter Weber
Tiffany Haddish and Kevin Hart got Monday night's 2018 MTV VMAs started with a good old fashioned roast, targeting everyone from DJ Khaled to Camila Cabello to President Trump.
"We are live coast to coast right now," Hart said. "I'm looking at this like it's game day people, but don't worry, at this game you guys are allowed to kneel. You can do whatever the hell you want, there's no old white guy here to stop you."
After a herpes joke aimed at the cast of Jersey Shore, Hart picked on rappers Lil Pump and Lil Xan, also known as the "reasons your 12-year-old cousin wants a face tattoo. Stop writing on your goddamn face. Stop writing on your face. It's stupid. You're not going to get a job if this s—t don't work out. Stop it." Then, it was back to Trump. "You never know what's going to happen at the VMAs," Hart said. There's "bad language" and people who "run to the bathroom and send out crazy tweets. It's basically like your typical day at the White House. In your face, Trump! Suck it." Watch the video below. Catherine Garcia

Gallery: Foster's Mocs rout Bucs, 66-42, share SoCon title
In what amounted to killing a fly with a sledgehammer, East Hamilton clobbered yet another District 6-AA opponent Friday.
What has to be most disheartening for the rest of the league is that this time it was against the only other unbeaten team in the district. So with the district title likely on the line, the Hurricanes proved just how much distance there is between them and the rest of the league by thoroughly pounding Hixson 49-0.
"We've played two other teams that were ranked in the state (Tyner and DeKalb County) and we thought both of those were tough," Hixson coach Jason Fitzgerald said. "But we haven't seen anybody as physical as East Hamilton. That's a complete football team, and they whipped us in every area.
"That's where we want to get to, where they are now."
Through four district games, no 6-AA opponent has come closer than 29 points as Class 4A's fourth-ranked Hurricanes look to defend their district title and earn home-field advantage in the state playoffs.
Following close to a script that has worked most of the season, East Hamilton scored two touchdowns in each of the first three quarters. The Hurricanes have outscored opponents 90-10 in the first quarters this season and against Hixson averaged needing just four plays to score their first six touchdowns.
Their defense, which allows fewer than 100 rushing yards per game, gave up just 81 to the Wildcats. Hixson didn't cross midfield until early in the fourth quarter, reaching the 49. But on the next snap, Wildcats quarterback Gil Brown was sacked for a loss of 5 and Hixson never again crossed the 50.
"We had our work cut out for us because they have a lot of big-play potential and a very talented team," East Hamilton coach Ted Gatewood said. "We knew they had come back in the second half two or three times already, so we really wanted to jump on them early and put them away.
"I thought we did a pretty good job up front of controlling things on both sides."
Senior tailback Logan Jackson surpassed the 1,000-yard mark for the second time in three seasons, and he made it look easy. He gained 156 yards on 16 carries, scored four touchdowns by two minutes into the third quarter and sat out the rest of the game.
"We wanted this game pretty bad," Jackson said. "We wanted to come in and play smash-mouth football, and the line did a great job of opening some big holes and making my job easier."

RERC on Universal Design and the Built Environment
Sponsor: U.S. Department of Education/NIDRR
PI: Molly Follette Story
Period: 09/01/99 through 08/30/04
The Center for Universal Design, College of Design at North Carolina State University, was funded by NIDRR as a Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center (RERC) on Universal Design and the Built Environment. The RERC's purpose was to 1) Improve the accessibility and usability of the built environment, and 2) Advance the field of universal design. Four goals for the RERC were defined:
- Increase knowledge of the complex and dynamic relationship between the individual and the environment, including knowledge of what design features, details and arrangements optimize the accessibility and usability of the built environment for the widest diversity of users.
- Increase adoption and improve the practice of universal design by the building and product manufacturing industries.
- Increase inclusion of the universal design approach in post-secondary design curricula and to increase the number of designers and researchers trained in universal design practices.
- Increase awareness of and stimulate demand for universal design among builders, manufacturers, designers, human service professionals, and individuals with disabilities and their families.
Research and Development Programs
Two research programs were undertaken: Environmental Evaluation Studies undertook a broad review to prioritize the most pressing problems experienced by people with disabilities across the built environment, and followed up with in-depth evaluations of the most critical areas of need. Industry Adoption Studies comprised interviewing industry leaders who demonstrated interest in universal design, as well as researching and documenting new case studies of industry adoption. Two development programs were pursued: In Model Plan Development and Model Product Development, the RERC developed universally designed plans and commercially viable products based on past experience and the results of RERC research.
Training Activities
The RERC's training initiatives were designed to align with its other activity areas, targeting key professions, using new technology and spanning local, national, and international audiences. The training programs focused on professionals (architecture, industrial design, interior design, the building professions, rehabilitation engineering, and allied health professions) at all stages of their training and practice, from undergraduate and graduate post-secondary activities to continuing education opportunities. The RERC worked closely with students, faculty, and staff at the College of Design and North Carolina State University and maintained frequent contact with faculty and professionals nationwide.
Dissemination and Utilization
The primary goal of The Center for Universal Design's outreach and dissemination program was to develop and promote effective communication channels for utilization of the Center's research results, development projects, training programs, and many other activities. The Center partnered with constituent stakeholders up front, including the disability community, to ensure utilization of new knowledge that ultimately impacts the built environment. A comprehensive dissemination program was pursued in the RERC, including a toll-free information and referral line, technical assistance services, an Internet Web site, a Publication Development and Sales Program, and promotion and marketing activities. These interrelated efforts helped the Center reach a variety of audiences with information resulting from research and development activities conducted by the RERC.

We sat at clinic yesterday to get post-chemo counts for the sweet ginger boy. He said he was feeling pretty good & at this point in the process he's usually spot on. But the night before he'd been playing with an ever-so-slight fever of 100.1ºF. I, of course, was a mess. Fever is one of the few things that they stress over and over and over again as being important to watch. So I did what any rational cancer mom would do, I set my alarm for every few hours to get up to check on sweet ginger boy. He was thrilled {sarcasm font}.
His fever never spiked & actually by morning was back to normal. Clinic revealed that his counts are awesome. Everything seems to be progressing exactly as it's supposed to. What we have been praying for.
and yet…
Anxiety can creep into the strangest moments. Waiting in the waiting room at the pediatric oncology clinic yesterday was a new patient. About sweet ginger's age. Full head of hair, meaning she was just starting the process. Her mom stood at the counter, trying to hold back tears while listening to the instructions for filling out all the necessary new patient paperwork. In a flash I remembered all of it. The fear. The unknown. The anxiety. The absolute panic about schedules & routines & "normal" life being uprooted for this, this cancer. And as we waited to go back to the cabana {yes, they call the rooms cabanas} I began to process how all that unknown had now become known &routine. And I got…MAD.
Mad at cancer. Mad at all the havoc it wreaks. Every where it goes it brings chaos, fear, anxiety and tears. Mad that it attacks children & babies. Mad that it hits without reason. Mad that it isn't always "treatable". Mad that just as we're thankfully finishing, others are just beginning on the cancer road. Mad at all cancer represents. Cancer just plain sucks!
But to sit too long in the swamp of my personal pity party is not good for anyone. True.Story. So this morning as the sun rises on the horizon, over the line of trees in our back acres, I remember that it's a new day. And while cancer is still here this morning, my Strength is too.

2015 Honda Odyssey : still among the elite
April 29 2015,
When it comes to Honda, we often think of their popular Civic compact, the most popular car in Canada, or other rather popular models in the lineup like the Accord, the CR-V or the Fit.
We also often think about safety and reliability as these are two criteria that are very important to buyers, and that have also made the reputation of Honda vehicles. Maybe that's why the Honda Odyssey has always been popular with buyers. As a family vehicle, we want the model in our driveway to be safe, to get us where we need to go without any problems, and to be dependable. The 2015 Honda Odyssey offers all of that and quite a bit more, and that's why it too proves to be quite popular. Even if it's not the first model that comes to mind when we think Honda.
Comfortable, the interior of the 2015 Honda Odyssey offers everything one needs to bring the family to where it needs to go in total serenity. Like any minivan, the first thing we notice is the impressive amount of space found inside Honda's family-hauler. But in comparison to other vehicles that are found in the same segment, the Odyssey tends to offer a little bit more space.
Capable of accommodating eight passengers, the new 2015 Honda Odyssey is a great place to be in, especially if we are tall. Indeed, there is plenty of head room in each of the three rows, and plenty of leg room as well. And should everyone decide to overpack, there is plenty of cargo room to fix the situation. There is 846 liters with all the seats in place, which is more than most SUVs. Should you need to move cargo, not people, you can fold down the seats and get up to 4,205 liters. No question, you can move a lot of stuff with the 2015 Odyssey.
And should you decide to pack it to the brim, know that you will have more than enough power to move around with confidence. Under the hood of the 2015 Odyssey is a 3.5-liter V6 engine developing 248 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. Strong when accelerating off the line, this engine also proves to be quite capable when the time comes to pass another vehicle on the road. Even with the whole family on board, you will never feel like you are lacking in power.
Starting at just over $ 30,000, the 2015 Honda Odyssey can be packed with loads of features that improve both comfort and versatility. To find out more about Honda's popular minivan, come drive it today at Bruce Honda!

As a kind of journeyman investor I have found the CAPS competition very valuable but I'm not sure for it's original stated intent. I don't spend any time looking at the community ratings of the stocks but the competition has forced me to follow a lot more stocks than I would follow normally and I think this has been very useful to me. I also enjoy following other players to see how different strategies play out but this is what has prompted this post. The clear best strategy to climbing to the very top of CAPS is what I have seen called harvesting. Maxing out your 200 picks and constantly closing out winners to bank points and score. I know others have complained about how valuable this is in the real world and I'm not here to beat that dead horse. It did get me to thinking about how you could improve CAPS so that player ranking became more meaningful. [more]

text: Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf told ESPN on Thursday he is willing to stand and pray during the national anthem, a decision that could lead to the lifting of his suspension by the NBA. "Now I recognize there is a better approach," Abdul-Rauf said in an interview with the network. "In Islam . . . if after making a decision you see that which is better, you do that." Abdul-Rauf's statement, two days after the NBA suspended him indefinitely for refusing to stand during the national anthem on religious grounds, would appear to meet the league's rule in the dispute. The NBA requires players to stand "in a dignified posture" while the anthem is played. "Am I sorry for it? Do I feel I'm wrong for doing what I did? No. This is what I believe. I'm not wrong for the stance I took. In no way am I compromising," Abdul-Rauf told ESPN. The network did not immediately broadcast the full interview but quoted him as saying he would rejoin the team Friday in Chicago and stand on the court and pray while the anthem was played. NBA spokesman Chris Brienza, speaking before Abdul-Rauf's comments were broadcast, said the league would wait to hear what the Denver Nuggets guard had to say.

NCAA President Myles Brand said Thursday the organization would hold firm to its ban on American Indian mascots and images in postseason competition despite resistance from institutions deemed to be offenders.
Brand said part of the NCAA's mission is to protect values.
"One of the values we hold dear is respect for everyone," he said in Omaha. "Some of the mascots, names, costumes and other acting out about Native Americans is very hostile and uncomfortable--mostly for Native Americans, but others as well."

Often overlooked, this cedar wrapped Petit Corona is vastly underrated. A complex yet refined little smoke, with a full on cedar note derived from it's wrapper throughout, possesses a cool white pepper note, and an almost minty finish. Leather and spice creep in quite early on to provide it with a little bit of kick. Nicely put together, and thoroughly tasty. ~

Hotel REIT LaSalle Hotel Properties (LHO) has bought San Diego's Hilton Gaslamp Quarter for $85 million. This upscale hotel is located next to the Convention Center in downtown San Diego.
"The San Diego hotel market has outperformed through the economic downturn, benefiting from healthy convention, meeting and leisure travel," says Jon Bortz, chairman and chief executive officer at LHO.
Bortz expects San Diego to continue to be one of the strongest performing hotel markets in the nation. LaSalle has chosen Davidson Hotel Co. to manage the 282-room hotel.
Last November, LaSalle bought another California hotel—the Chaminade located in Santa Cruz—for $18.5 million. That property boasts 153 rooms and 12,000 sq. ft. of meeting space.

Dental Sealants Puyallup, WA
Sealants are a great preventative measure used to protect your teeth before a cavity forms on the occlusal (chewing) surface of your teeth. The chewing surfaces of your posterior (back) teeth form with pits and valleys (sometimes called fissures) which are easily accessible for bacteria and microscopic food particles.
Prevent the intrusion of bacteria
Sealants are designed to prevent the intrusion of bacteria and other debris into the fissures on the occlusal surface of teeth. Sealants are resin coatings that are applied to the pits and fissures on the biting surface of your teeth. This coating creates a barrier to keep decay out of these hard to clean areas, thereby helping to prevent cavities.
We recommend sealants for children as soon as their permanent teeth erupt. Once a tooth has been attacked by bacteria and a cavity forms, a sealant cannot be placed. If an adult presents with cavity free posterior teeth with deep fissures and pits, our doctors may recommend sealants to help protect against future decay.
Dental sealants prevent about 80% of the cavities a typical child might otherwise have if left untreated. A bargain now with lifetime benefits.
If taken care of properly and monitored by a dental professional, sealants should last between 5 and 10 years. Keep your sealants clean by brushing twice a day and flossing once a day.
At our Puyallup dental office, our patient's health is our number one priority, so we make sure to use a BPA free sealant.

Thousands of people spent the night outside or fled the southern Spanish city of Lorca, fearing aftershocks following a pair of deadly earthquakes on Wednesday.
Officials in the popular tourist region of Murcia said Thursday at least 10 people, including a child, were killed in the quakes, which caused houses to collapse and damaged historic churches and buildings.
Aid workers gave blankets, food and water to residents as rubble and crushed cars littered the streets of the ancient town.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the epicenter of the stronger 5.1-magnitude quake was one kilometer below the ground. A milder quake of 4.4 magnitude had hit the area shortly before.
Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Zapatero ordered emergency military units to the region to help with rescue efforts.
Lorca, a town of about 90,000 people, dates back thousands of years and has an old town center with narrow streets.
Some information for this report was provided by AP and AFP.

A project to build a new jail that has eluded Tuolumne County for nearly 20 years will officially get underway in the coming weeks.
Elected leaders and county officials donning white hard hats and clutching polished silver shovels turned the first mounds of dirt on Tuesday at a groundbreaking ceremony for what will be the largest single project the county has undertaken in its 168-year history.
"I know we all look forward to being here again in 19 months to open the new Sheriff J.H. 'Jack' Dambacher Detention Center," said District 4 Supervisor John Gray, who gave the opening remarks as this year's chairman of the county Board of Supervisors.
Gray recapped the journey to reach Tuesday's milestone that began with a presentation to the board in 1999 by former Sheriff Dick Nutting outlining the need for a new jail.
The proposal later grew into a larger complex that would include a new jail, courthouse and the county's first juvenile hall.
In 2004, then-Assistant County Administrator Craig Pedro prepared a study looking at potential sites for what would be called the Law and Justice Center that narrowed down to 48 acres of ranchland owned by the Gardella family off Old Wards Ferry Road in Sonora.
"I think it's a pretty nice 48 acres," Gray said while standing at a podium before a backdrop of vast swaths of rolling green hills stretching westward.
The county spent the next several years conducting an extensive environmental impact report before formally purchasing the land from the Gardellas for more than $4 million in 2009, which generated some controversy because some at the time believed the county paid too much.
Nevertheless, the county began applying for state grants to get the money needed to build the jail. The estimated cost was originally more than $80 million, but the board and county officials worked to narrow the scope and reduce the price by more than half.
The state awarded the county a $20 million grant in January 2014 from more than $6 billion in funding provided by Senate Bill 1022 for financing jail construction projects through lease revenue bonds.
That wasn't enough for the county to build the jail, so it lobbied for another $13 million grant from Assembly Bill 900 that provided another $1.8 billion in funding for jail construction.
The county received the grant in July 2015 after another county had to give back the money it had received.
"The combining of two legislative sources of funding was unheard of before this," said Linda Penner, chairwoman of the Board of State and Community Corrections, while giving a brief speech at Tuesday's ceremony.
After working on the final designs for more than a year, the county officially awarded the contract for construction in November to the Fresno-based Harris Construction Inc.
Deputy County Administrator Maureen Frank, who has worked on the project since its inception in the early 2000s, has said that construction is slated to officially begin in March after all of the subcontractors are selected and approved.
The county's current jail at 175 Yaney Ave. in Sonora was constructed in 1960, though there were two additions completed in the 1970s and 1990s that expanded the total number of inmates it could hold to 147.
For many years, the Tuolumne County Grand Jury's annual reports have criticized the conditions at the jail as outdated and overcrowded.
The new roughly 63,000-square-foot jail will house more than 230 inmates and will be designed to more to modern standards. The existing jail poses a safety risk due to the number of narrow winding halls and staircases.
There will also be a bigger laundry room as opposed to the single closet-sized one at the current jail, an expanded kitchen, and more rooms for rehabilitation and educational programs.
"This building will give inmates an opportunity to change their lives," said Sheriff Jim Mele.
Mele said the new jail will also allow the Sheriff's Office to expand its prison industries program that has been overseen by John Fisher for nearly three years. In that time, 256 inmates have participated in the program and 54 of those have re-offended, a success rate of nearly 80 percent.
The new jail is named after John Henry "Jack" Dambacher, whom Mele referred to as a great man.
Dambacher was longest serving sheriff in county history from 1922 to 1946. He served through prohibition, the Great Depression and World War II.
Dambacher's grandson, Gary Dambacher, talked about his grandfather's career and how he was known throughout town as "The Black Hat" because of his iconic headwear.
"The jail here is being named after a legend," Gary Dambacher said.

Hawks are birds of prey, also called raptors, which have a presence all over the world except for Antarctica. They possess the attributes of exceptionally fine eyesight, sharp beaks and talons for grabbing their prey, and they have the ability to spot their potential meal with binocular-like vision. Most hawks are what are known as sit-and-wait predators, staying in a selected spot till an animal comes along that they can kill and eat. What exactly is on a hawk's menu?
The red-tailed hawk is one of the most widespread species of hawks, living throughout almost all of North America. It will eat small mammals such as mice, moles and shrews. But it is large enough to kill and eat rabbits; waterfowl, like ducks; bats; and even fish. Snakes and lizards as well as frogs and toads, are also part of its diet.
The Cooper's hawk has almost as wide a range as the red-tailed hawk. It will hunt small mammals such as squirrels and chipmunks but makes medium sized birds a very large part of its diet. They will catch a bird with their feet and squeeze it many times until it is dead. Cooper's hawks have even been observed drowning a bird in water to kill it before eating it. They aren't shy about killing a bird at a bird feeder.
The red shouldered hawk is found in the eastern half of the United States and into Mexico. It will eat bird's eggs as well as small animals and insects. It will also eat small snakes. This hawk is different from others in that they will sometimes mix in with crows. This is significant since crows are an enemy to almost all other birds because of their habit of eating eggs from other nests, and because they attack and drive off great horned owls and other hawk species.
Harris's hawk is a raptor of the desert southwest in the United States and its range extends all the way down to Chile. They are known to hunt in groups of as many as five but usually in twos or threes. By functioning in this manner they are able to surround and kill animals as large as jackrabbits, which they then share. They also eat many lizards and species of snakes.
The red-tailed hawk is also commonly called a "chicken hawk." It is thought to constantly be searching for chickens out of their coops to make a meal out of them but this is not true of the bird today. They earned this nickname way back in earlier times in America when chickens and other domesticated birds used to roam about a farm freely. The young hawks, who were first starting out on their own after receiving meals from their parents, found these chickens easy targets and would kill and eat some. However, farmers still firmly believe that red-tailed hawks will kill their chickens every chance they get.

Hi All!
I'm happy to welcome M.A. Church to my blog!
Poor soul didn't know I'd grill her….
LV: Okay, first cab off the rank… and lulling M.A. into a false send of security…. Favorite color?
M.A.: That would be red. Love the color! My car is red, lol. I bought a laptop that was red. There are shades of red all through my house. *snicker* My favorite drink comes in a red can. (Coke)
LV: Okay, I have M.A. fooled (I think!) Weather: Hot or cold?
M.A.: God, I hate the cold. I hate snow. I'd rather deal with the horrible heat here than cold any day! Guess it's a good thing I live in the South, lol.
LV: Okay now for some serious shit… (I might actually learn something!) Could you ever co-author a book with someone? If so, who would you choose, and what would you write?
M.A.: I have actually co-authored something, lol. Dreamspinner released Be My Alien, a novella, May 2013. Julie Lynn Hayes and I started this roughly a year ago. We have two more books planned and we're close to being done with the next in the series. Oh, we named the series Moonlit Skies. The next book is titled Be My Human, and it's novel length. Yup, it's scifi, lol.
I will say that I've good things and bad things about doing the co-author thing, but Julie and I work well together. I've found it's a give and take relationship. We talk about plot points and other things, and we listen to what the other has to say.
LV: What comes first, the plot or characters?
M.A.: For me, the plot comes first. I have to have some working idea of what I'm writing, lol. Before I ever put pen to paper, so to speak, I have a beginning, middle, and end. *laugh* I guess it's the teacher in me. I can't help it, lol. Now, that's not to say there isn't room for change. Hell, there's even been a time or two I threw the plot out the window and started completely over. Talk about stressing me out, though, so that doesn't happen often.
LV: How do you come up with the titles to your books? (LOL, I'm hoping for some help here!)
M.A.: Lord, they just come to me, lol. Seriously, I'll be sitting on the couch watching TV and a title will pop up in my head. Then I'm grabbing something to write on. I've started keeping the grocery list because I've had titles written on the back. The bad thing (or good, depending on how you look at it) is I come up with titles for books I've not written. That drives me crazy, lol.
LV: Are you a plotter or a pantser?
M.A.: Oh, I'm a plotter. Like I said, I have to have something to go on. I've tried the 'write by the seat of my pants' approach and it isn't pretty. I end up with a mess that makes no sense and plot holes you could drive a truck through.
LV: What advice would you give a new writer just starting out?
M.A.: The first thing would be to research the publisher you're looking at. Google them. Go look at their website. What kind of covers do they have? Do you like them? Go on places like ARe and check out the bestseller list. What publishers are there? Ask around. Talk to others. Listen to what's being talked about on social media and blogs. I hate to say it, but if there's smoke, there's usually fire.
The other thing I'd say is don't give up, and please, don't take rejection to heart. This is a business. Publishers want to make money. If they don't think something will work for them, they'll give it a pass. That doesn't mean they think the story sucks. So, okay then, it's been rejected. Send that story off to another publisher.
LV: Do you ever suffer from writer's block? If so, what do you do about it?
M.A.: Hmm, not really sure. *laugh* Now that makes sense, right? I don't think I've actually been blocked, but I do get… bored. I need to take a break from whatever I'm writing and work on something else. I might step away from a WIP for up to a month, then suddenly, it gets hot and I can't leave it alone, lol. And yes, that often shoots my schedule, but that's how I am. Some people can't work on several stories at a time. I'm one of those that can't stick with just one.
Hey everyone! I'm M.A. Church and I'm here to talk about my latest release, Wrapped in Leather. It's the first in the Wrapped Up series. It'll be released by Dreamspinner January 3rd.
To celebrate his decision to take the next step with his boyfriend Ian, Toshi Baylor plans a romantic evening at their favorite steak house. Toshi starts the special weekend with a bang by surprising Ian at home with lunch. There's a bang all right, but it's between Ian and another guy.
Jase Taylor's auto repair shop and the BDSM club, Wrapped Up, keep him busy while he waits for Mr. Right, instead of Mr. Right Now. He's a Dom, but playing with the club's submissives isn't providing the usual stress release. After a day from hell, he deserves a good meal at his favorite steak house.
Toshi and Jase find a mix-up with their reservations: a table for Baylor, not Taylor. When Toshi invites Jase to dine with him, they discover a mutual affection for leather and a shared belief that trust must be earned.
Before they can explore their common interests, Toshi suffers a series of attacks by vandals. Jase's protective instincts kick in, but both wonder if it can lead to anything permanent.

Toshi watched as the guy parked and swung a leg off the bike, jeans tightening across what looked like a fine ass. Toshi gulped. Now that was some fantasy material. The guy stood next to the bike—oooh, he was tall too. The helmet, along with the leather jacket, gloves, and boots gave him a mysterious, dangerous look, with a strong side of kinky thrown into the mix.
"Damn," Toshi muttered, his dick twitching with interest.
The stranger removed his helmet and leather gloves. Nice, short dark-brown hair and a sexy goatee—Toshi swallowed hard. His dick was doing more than twitching. Gods, everything about this guy screamed smoking hot, kinky sex. The leather alone was enough to rev his imagination. Which was unfortunate, since the man he was drooling over was probably straight. But hey, he could dream.
He entered the restaurant before his interest was noticed, just to be safe. Wow, the biker guy really flipped his switches. He was more than a little surprised at how he'd responded—no one had stirred his interest like that since he'd started dating again. Not even Ian had gotten him this hot. Toshi sidelined his thoughts when he was greeted by the hostess.
"Good evening, sir. One for dinner tonight?" Angie, the hostess, flipped her long hair over her shoulder, a smile on her face.
"Yeah, I had a reservation under the name Baylor for eight." A breeze swirled around Toshi as the biker guy walked inside the restaurant.
"Great! We're really slammed tonight. Dan will be here in a moment to show you to your table."
Toshi heard the hostess Angie start her spiel again. She didn't get far.
"Oh no, oh sir, I'm so sorry! We don't have a Mr. Taylor listed."
"Look, I spoke to you, remember? I called and made a reservation at eight tonight for one. It was a little loud in here when I called."
Toshi shivered and slowed at the deep voice behind him. That sound reached right down to his balls.
"I-I… I'm so sorry, sir. There seems to be a mix-up with the last names of you and the customer who was just here. But we should have a table coming up in about an hour."
"An hour? You're kidding, right? You made a mistake, not me, but I have to wait? Jesus, can this day get any worse? Look, I'll just sit at the bar until something comes available."
"I'm sorry, sir, but the bar is full. I'm so sorry for the mix-up, but there simply isn't a table open. And there isn't any room at the bar right now."
Author bio:
M.A. Church lives in the southern United States and spent many years in the elementary education sector. She is married to her high school sweetheart and they have two children. Her hobbies are gardening, walking, attending flea markets, watching professional football, racing, and spending time with her family on the lake.
But her most beloved hobby is reading. From an early age, she can remember hunting for books at the library. Later nonhuman and science fiction genres captured her attention and drew her into the worlds the authors had created. But always at the back of her mind was the thought that one day, when the kids were older and she had more time, she would write a book.
By sheer chance she stumbled across a gay male romance story on the web and was hooked. A new world opened up and she fell in love. Thus the journey started. When not writing or researching, she enjoys reading the latest erotic and mainstream romance novels.

Actually Developing Please refer to Parts One and Two for guidance on materials, preparing chemicals, and loading film.
For Part Three, we'll assume that you've prepared your chemicals and loaded your film. It's easy and fun from here on out.
The stainless steel tank I use can hold both 35mm reels (one or two reels at a time) and 120mm reels (only one reel at a time). The tank holds 500ml of fluid. I use 500ml of fluid regardless of what type of film I'm using. I could get away with using less with 35mm film, but the chemicals aren't expensive. This way I know all of the film is being covered with fluid.
Get your premixed developer and fixer out along with three measuring cups or measured containers. If you refer to the picture above, you'll see that I have:
1) a two cup (550ml) measuring cup for my developer 2) a four cup (1100ml) measuring cup for my water (acting as a stop bath) 3) a two cup (550ml) measuring cup for my fixer
I like to keep them in this order, which is how the chemicals are introduced to the film: developer first, water or stop bath second, and then fixer third.
Remember, your solutions need to be at room temperature (68 degrees F or 20 degrees C). If your house is warmer or cooler than this by more than a few degrees, you can measure out your chemicals into their containers and place them in a cool or warm water bath to adjust the temperature to room temperature.
Pour 500ml of your developing solution into the first measuring cup.
Pour 1000ml of water (tap if you have good water, distilled if you don't) into the second measuring cup (the large one). You'll do two rinses in this so you need twice the amount of liquid.
Pour 500ml of your fixer solution into the third measuring cup
Your picture should look like mine above.
Now, you need to figure out how long to develop your film. Bookmark the Massive Dev Chart; it will be your developing bible. Enter the name of your film and the name of your developer, hit search, and you'll get something that looks like this:
In this example, you are using Kodak Tri-X 400 and Kodak D-76 Developer. You shot the film at 400 ISO and you are using a stock solution (the recipe I showed you in Part Two). So, Kodak TriX 400 in D-76 at 400 (or even pushed to 800 ISO) for 35mm film should be developed for 6.75 (this is 6 minutes and 45 seconds, or 6:45) minutes. If you are developing 120 film it's the same time. Notice if you use a diluted solution of D-76, or pushed the film more than a stop, you develop the film longer.
1) Solution
Set your timer for 6:45 minutes (6 minutes 45 seconds) and remove the little cap on your tank lid. Do not remove the lid, just the cap! As long as the lid is on, your tank is still light proof. Carefully pour your developer into the tank. Once the developer is in the tank, start your timer. You will agitate the tank for the first 30 seconds of development time and then for 10 seconds every minute thereafter.
6:45 – 6:15
For the first 30 seconds of developing, slowly invert the tank several times. I slowly turn the tank over in my hands back and forth. Trying to picture the fluid washing over the film from all angles. This is called agitation. Everyone has their own style of doing this, but the general idea is to make sure the developer coats every part of the film surface.
6:15 Stop agitating the tank and lightly rap it on the counter a few times as you set it down. This gets rid of any bubbles that may have formed.
6:15 – 5:15 Let the tank rest on the counter.
5:15- 5:05 Agitate: pick up the tank again and gently turn it over for 10 seconds. After ten seconds, stop agitating the tank and lightly rap it on the counter a few times as you set it down. (See the pattern yet? I do this after every agitation.)
5:05 – 4:05 Let the tank rest on the counter.
4:05 – 3:55 Agitate for 10 seconds, rap on counter to remove bubbles.
3:55 – 2:55 Let the tank rest on the counter.
2:55 – 2:45 Agitate for 10 seconds, rap on counter to remove bubbles.
2:45 – 1:45 Let the tank rest on the counter.
1:45 – 1:35 Agitate for 10 seconds, rap on counter to remove bubbles.
1:35 - 0:35 Let the tank rest on the counter.
0:35 – 0:25 Agitate for 10 seconds, rap on counter to remove bubbles.
0:25 – 0:00 Let the tank rest on the counter.
I'm being very strict with this timing for you in this example. In reality I just pick a time every minute and agitate to make it easier. You'll get comfortable with the process as you do it a few times. Consistency is the key, but exact seconds aren't really necessary.
When your timer goes off, take off the cap (not the lid) and pour the spent developer down the drain. This is harmless to plumbing. Some people reuse developer a couple of times; I don't.
2) Water acting as Stop Bath
Next pour 500ml (half) of your water into the tank and place the cap back on the lid. Invert the tank several times to rinse the remaining developer off of the film. Remove the cap (not the lid) and pour the water down the drain.
Repeat with the remaining 500ml of water.
I always rinse twice just to make sure the developer is off the film.
3) Fixer
Then, you fix your film. I fix film for anywhere from 4 to 5 minutes; some people fix longer and some shorter. From my research and experience four minutes is a good amount of time for fixing. If I've already fixed several rolls in that batch of fixer, I will extend my fixing time to 5 minutes.
Set your timer for four minutes.
Take the cap off (remember, don't take the lid off!) and pour the 500ml of fixer into your tank. Put the cap on the lid and start your timer.
For the first 30 seconds, you will agitate your tank just like you did during development. Invert the tank slowly for 30 seconds and then rap on counter to remove bubbles.
From 3:30 – 2:30, let the tank rest.
At 2:30 on the timer, agitate the tank for 10 seconds and then rap on counter to remove bubbles. For the next 50 seconds, let the tank rest.
At 1:30 on the timer, agitate the tank for 10 seconds and then rap on counter to remove bubbles. For the next 50 seconds, let the tank rest.
At :30 on the timer, agitate the tank for 10 seconds and then rap on counter to remove bubbles. For the remaining 20 seconds, your film will be resting.
When the timer goes off, pour the fixer back into your fixer container. Remember fixer is reusable. Do not pour the fixer down the drain. It probably won't hurt your pipes or the environment in small amounts like you will use, but spent fixer is toxic. It's not cool to toss it down the drain. You can take it to a developing lab and they can dispose of it for you safely. There are ways to remove the silver in spent fixer, so do your research if you want to dispose of on your own.
At this point, you can remove the lid to your tank. The developed and fixed film can now safely be exposed to light.
Now you have to rinse your film. Rinsing times can vary, but I rinse my film for at least 10 minutes. Place the reel with the film still wrapped on it into a shallow container in the sink. Turn on the tap and adjust the water temperature to room temperature. Aim the heavy flow of water into the container holding the film on the reel and just let it go. I will slosh the reel around in the container, walk away for a little bit, then come back and slosh it around some more. You want to rinse all the chemicals off of the film. It sounds tedious, but don't skimp on this step. Rinse, rinse, and rinse for at least 10 minutes. You want a steady flow of water to flow over the reel.
As you are rinsing, get a clothes hanger or something and put a clothes pin or other clip on it. You need something that can hang from the hanger and clip onto the end of the film. Put your hanger on something high enough to keep the film off of the ground and away from surroundings.
I hang mine in the kitchen from a track light bar, but you can hang it in the shower on the shower rod.
After you've rinsed your film for at least ten minutes, you can turn off the water and unroll the film. This is the exciting part. It *still* excites me every time. Carefully unroll the film. Make sure you don't bump it into anything, even your clothes. You don't want fibers, hair, or dust getting on your wet film.
Attach the end of the film to the clip that's on the hanger and then put another clip on the bottom of the strip to weigh it down. This helps keep your film from curling so much.
Step back and admire your negatives. Pause and enjoy this moment. Then leave them alone while they dry for a couple of hours. This is hard, but you want to make sure they are completely dry before you touch them.
After they dry, you can cut and sleeve them or scan them. Scanning is another lesson best given by someone else.
