$784 Million in New Transportation Funding to Help Create Jobs and Bolster the Economy
MARYSVILLE – Following last week's announcement of the general obligation bond sales, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) today allocated $784 million in new funding for 61 projects that will help create thousands of jobs bolstering the state's economic recovery - and reduce traffic congestion, repair highways and bridges, and make driving safer for everyone.
Last week's bond sale allowed projects that were delayed or at risk of delay due to lack of funding to move forward to construction. In addition, the bond proceeds will also fund more than 300 ongoing projects through June 2012. The ongoing and newly allocated projects leverage around $11 billion in non-state funds, giving our economy an added boost.
"These projects will allow billions of dollars to flow into construction and produce enormous economic benefits for California," said Acting Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty.
Some of the notable projects in this region that received funding include:
- In Placer County, $20 million for phase two of the Lincoln bypass, which will widen from two to four lanes 4.7 miles of State Highway 65 between Nelson Lane and West Wise Road.
- In Sacramento County, $2.7 million for phase two of the Folsom Boulevard project aimed at improving pedestrian access between Regional Transit bus stops and the Mather/Mills Light Rail Station. Folsom Boulevard in Rancho Cordova will be widened between Rod Beaudry Drive and Mather Field Road and sidewalks and bike lanes will be installed.
- In Sacramento County, $7.2 million for phase two of the South Sacramento Corridor project to build a new five-level parking structure creating 2,000 new parking spaces at the Cosumnes River College campus.
- In Nevada County, $144,000 for road slurry seal covering approximately 40 miles of roadways maintained by the Town of Truckee.
The CTC funding today includes $695 million from Proposition 1B, the 2006 voter-approved transportation bond. To date, the state has allocated more than $9 billion in Proposition 1B funds.
Please see the attached file for more information about all projects that received allocations today.

Newtown's HealingNewtown Arts Space opens; Malloy attends event
NEWTOWN >> It will take more than just an art show, or even a series of art shows, to heal Newtown.
But on Thursday, at the Valentine's Day grand opening of the new HealingNewtown Arts Space, dozens of kids made bells and jewelry, created on-the-spot poetry and printed t-shirts as a couple of hundred people watched Yale's Whiffenpoofs sing African-American spirituals and other timeless classics.
Newtown singer-songwriter Jim Allyn sang with the Newtown Youth Choir to provide a backdrop for young dancers from the Newtown Center of Classical Ballet.
Li Liu of Cirque du Jour, a Bejiing-born acrobat, got Newtown kids spinning plates on sticks after performing her own feats of wonder to the tune of "El Condor Pasa," the most famous Peruvian folk song.
Artists who flew -- and drove -- in from as far away as Florida and Chicago for an opening that featured art they donated in the wake of the Dec. 14 tragedy that extinguished the lives of 20 first-graders and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School met and swapped stories with Newtown artists whose work hung right alongside.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and his wife, Cathy, stopped by. So did Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman and First Selectwoman Patricia Llodra.
Lots of Newtowners smiled and laughed.
There was reason for optimism.
"It is comforting to know that you're not alone," said Newtowner Carolyn DePasquale, whose husband, Adam, is one of the pastors of the Walnut Hill Community Church in Bethel. She said she came to the grand opening "just to be a part of the community."
It made DePasquale feel good "to think that all these people were thinking of us when they made these things," she said as she walked around the new HealingNewtown Arts Space in the former Newtown Ace Hardware space.
Earlier, Jennifer Johnson, chairwoman of the Newtown Cultural Arts Commission, which created the Arts Space at 5 Queen St. with support from the Cultural Alliance of Western Connecticut and the state Department of Economic and Community Development's Connecticut Office of the Arts, had explained that the purpose was to lift people's spirits and help promote healing.
"At a difficult time like this, it is important for all of us to realize the important role art can play" in healing, Johnson said. "Now this space will be here" as part of an "arts-focused healing process."
And for DePasquale, at least, it was working.
Ditto for Jen Meyer and Jill Baimel and their children, Ellie Meyer and Jack Baimel, both 8. They all stopped in at the HealingNewtown Arts Space opening -- where Jill Baimel was among the exhibitors -- after attending the March for Change in Hartford.
"It's great," said Jen Meyer, who said what brought her there was "just curiosity. We were touched by all the things that people donated" to the town in the wake of the tragedy, she said.
"It's nice that it's brought people together," Meyer said.
"It's amazing how global it all is," said Baimel, whose photo was one of the more striking things on exhibit. It's a mostly black-and-white photograph of two sets of hands, one slightly darker and larger than the other, cradling a hand-tinted green heart.
On the opposite wall of the gallery hung a mixed-media "Tree of Life" artwork by Lonnie Posley Sr. of Joliet, Ill., near Chicago -- who drove 16 hours straight with his two brothers, Douglas and Steve, to deliver the artwork in time for Thursday's opening.
He hopes that viewing it will be as healing for Newtown as creating it was for him.
Work on the piece began soon after the shootings.
"I was in the bed laying down, and when I woke up, I could hear the voice of God saying, 'You need to dedicate a piece to Newtown -- because it healed you and it can heal them,'" Posley said.
While the Arts Space was created with outside support, the hope is to make it locally self-sustaining over time, said Llodra. To donate to support future activities can get information and a schedule of upcoming events at www.healingnewtown.org.
Posley, an ordained minister at the New Canaanland Church in Joliet who owns galleries in Joliet and Chicago, began creating trees of life to work through his own pain after his mother died of breast cancer and later his son, four years ago, was diagnosed with schizophrenia and as bipolar.
The pain Posley experienced in his life plunged him into a deep depression and "this healed me from depression," he said of the Tree of Life. "God has just opened up so many doors."
Meanwhile down in Bay Harbor Islands, Fla., just north of Miami Beach, Maggie Vidal-Santos and 31 of her sixth- and seventh-grade students at the Ruth K. Broad Bay Harbor K-8 Center were already working on a three-foot fiberglass turtle -- named "Ruth" -- when they heard about what happened at Sandy Hook.
Somewhere in one of the news accounts, it mentioned that Sandy Hook School's mascot was Shelley the turtle. It was the kids who decided that they needed to send Ruth up to meet Shelley and try to cheer her -- and her kids -- up, Vidal-Santo said.
Ruth -- who the kids were painting in colorful shades of red, yellow, gold and white, with each student doing one shell panel -- was almost done at that point.
Now, "It's our gift," to be used as Newtown sees fit -- although "we'd really hope it could end up at the school with the kids," she said.

South Dakota Lawmakers Hold Hearing on Medicaid Expansion
PIERRE - South Dakota lawmakers are taking another look at the possibility of expanding Medicaid to cover thousands more people.
The House and Senate committees on Health and Human Services are holding a joint meeting Wednesday to consider the advantages and drawbacks of expanding the program as part of the federal health care overhaul.
South Dakota's Medicaid program now covers about 116,000 children, adults and disabled people. If the state decides to expand eligibility, another 48,000 people who are mostly adults without children would be added to the program.
Gov. Dennis Daugaard wants the state to delay a decision on whether to expand Medicaid because he is uncertain the federal government can keep its promise to pick up most of the cost of the expansion.

Three Year Old Tragically Killed By Falling Bookcase
A family in rural Victoria is in mourning after a freak accident has claimed the life of their precious three year old son.
Toddler Blake Shaw was killed when a freestanding bookcase fell on him as he sat on the floor of the family's farmhouse at Clear Lake near Horsham.
The grieving parents of a 3yo boy, killed by a bookcase in their home, have paid tribute to their son. #9Today https://t.co/NxYkwFZftM— The Today Show (@TheTodayShow) August 23, 2016
Blake's father Tim Shaw told the Herald Sun that he and his partner Kirstie were coming to terms with the shocking accident.
"The worst thing the kid ever did was smile, we moved for the kids."
Grandmother Dianne Shaw said she had taken Blake to the beach on the day of the accident.
"He had a beautiful day — he called me 'grandma' for the first time,''
"We are devastated. Just devastated. He was our baby."
Investigations have begun into why the bookcase had fallen as it appears that Blake was not climbing on or even close to the structure at the time of the accident.
"He was adored,'' Ms Shaw said.
"He was a beautiful-looking child," Ms Shaw said.
"He was an angel."

"Good local food is for everyone. It's not an elitist thing," Amanda Merrow, a co-founder of the Amagansett Food Institute, said on Friday over lunch with the institute's new executive director, Jennifer Desmond, and two other co-founders, Katie Baldwin and Carissa Waechter.
It was that notion that spurred the creation of the food institute, which was incorporated last year. With its new director in place as of this month (Ms. Waechter held that title in the interim), the not-for-profit institute is set to begin a major fund-raising drive to establish a campus that its founders hope will become an epicenter of the local food movement — "Like a Y for food," Ms. Desmond said.
They envision a farmers market, cafe, education center, and a communal, commercially certified kitchen, all connected to a working organic farm and all aimed at promoting sustainable food and farming, a food hub for people who want to learn or share their knowledge about growing or preparing food.
"It seemed like there was an opportunity on the East End to capitalize on the endlessly bountiful foodshed that is here," Ms. Baldwin said. "To us that means bringing together food producers" — farmers, fishermen, vintners, cheese makers, beekeepers, bakers, and more — "in a centralized physical location." The institute would support producers not only by helping to connect them with consumers and the community, but also by allowing them to share resources and information about such basic things as health insurance.
Together Ms. Merrow and Ms. Baldwin also run the not-for-profit Amber Waves Farm, an organic, community-supported agriculture project behind the Amagansett Farmers Market. Ms. Waechter is an artisanal baker who will launch her own line, Carissa's Breads, later this month. Joining them on the institute's board are John de Cuevas, a scientist, conservationist, and environmentalist who is also a baker, and Gary Bradhering and Chris Harris, longtime supporters of local organic food initiatives. Ms. Baldwin serves as the organization's president; Ms. Merrow is secretary and treasurer.
On Friday, as Ms. Desmond boiled pea and mint ravioli for lunch at her house in Springs, the aroma of Ms. Waechter's bread, made with grain milled from Amber Waves wheat, filled the kitchen. A salad of Amber Waves greens completed the meal, a simple homage to the beauty of local ingredients.
"Katie's and my mission is to celebrate the story of food and get people excited about the food they're eating by giving them the story that gets them from farm field to table," Ms. Merrow said. "That is really what I live for." The organization's goal, too, is to tell that story, she said.
"We want to have a farmer in residence, a baker in residence. We want to have people on the campus all the time working and producing but also being educated," Ms. Desmond said.
The institute's board had been eyeing the Main Street, Amagansett, building that formerly housed Pacific East as a potential campus but is looking at other sites as well. The Main Street site would be ideal because it backs up onto the Amber Waves Farm, which is a separate entity but could become the farm component of the institute "if we want that, if everyone wants that," Ms. Baldwin said.
Amber Waves has close to 40 member families this year and has made education a part of its own mission, inviting children from the Amagansett School to grow and harvest vegetables there.
Wherever the campus is, the board will need more than good ideas to grow their vision into reality. The initial fund-raising goal, Ms. Desmond said, is $4 million. "That would give us significant headway to buy a property, make improvements, and use that property for a line of credit."
When all is said and done, the institute's board doesn't want to build some food palace that caters only to people of means. "It needs to be accessible to everyone," Ms. Desmond said.
"We want to create a community of healthy, happy eaters," Ms. Merrow said.
Educating schoolchildren about where food comes from is an important part of the institute's work that has already begun, even without a physical campus. The institute did a pop-up farmers market at the East Hampton Middle School last year, arranged for local chefs to give demonstrations of dishes using locally produced foods, and conducted fresh food drives in which farmers donated excess from their harvests to the Springs Food Pantry. "We made the rounds and ended up donating 1,750 pounds of fresh produce that otherwise would have gone to waste," Ms. Waechter said.
This year, the institute hopes to encourage farmers not only to donate their excess, but also to deliberately plan to grow some portion of crops for local food pantries. It will involve children in this effort by encouraging them to raise money to help defray the farmers' production costs.
In the coming year, the institute will also conduct food education programs with local children starting at preschool age and will organize farm tours so consumers of all ages can see food being grown and raised, among other things.
"Every community can do this. Every community has a foodshed that it can celebrate," Ms. Desmond said. "We're so inspired by all these ideas. You know you're on to something when you're that excited."
"It's a lot of work," Ms. Baldwin said, "but it doesn't feel like work. It feels like what you want to do."

With Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam facing imminent defeat at the hands of the Sri Lanka Army, tiger propaganda machines have kicked into high gear, screaming about civilian massacres by SLA. The very same web sites that used to boast about military victories by LTTE in the not so distant past have now turned into whinefests calling on the international community to save the civilians. Official online mouthpiece of the LTTE, Tamilnet.com is now full of fabricated stories and doctored photographs along with some staged drama.
Anyway DefenceNet can confirm that SLA had suspended all shelling and heavy weapons fire by now. However, limited air strikes had been continuing until recently but the targets were highly fortified LTTE hideouts where no civilian is permitted to go. Any shelling on the very small uncleared area surrounded by SLA units at this point would cause casualties due to friendly fire anyway.

'Happy Valley' explores Penn State sex-abuse scandal
PARK CITY, Utah — The filmmaker behind the new documentary about the Penn State sexual-abuse scandal says that both the family of Joe Paterno, the university's late revered football coach, and the lawyer for the victims expressed satisfaction with the film.
''To have total polar opposite perspectives feel a sense of gratification that the film represents their perspective accurately is really something I am proud of,'' said documentarian Amir Bar-Lev in an interview at the Sundance Film Festival, where his documentary ''Happy Valley'' premiered. Bar-Lev screened the film for Paterno's widow, Sue, his two sons, Scott and Jay, and lawyer Tom Kline before it premiered at Sundance. All appear in the film.
Having really enjoyed the family environment of the football community that had been in place during her husband's life, Sue Paterno said on-camera, ''It was good we all had that time.''
''Happy Valley'' explores the case that engulfed the town of State College, where Penn State is based and which is also known as Happy Valley. Jerry Sandusky, the former Penn State assistant football coach, was accused of molesting children, and key people, including Paterno, were said to have turned a blind eye.
Paterno died with a tarnished image and the town was rocked by their fallen saints. Jerry Sandusky, who is in prison, did not speak for the movie, but his son Matt did.
To get Matt Sandusky to agree to participate in the documentary, Bar-Lev assured him the movie wouldn't solely rely on the stories of Sandusky or Paterno. Instead, it would focus on the torn Happy Valley community.
''Matt asked me a lot of questions about my approach,'' said Bar-Lev. ''Convincing him was really about sitting down with him and telling him that this film was called 'Happy Valley,' not Sandusky or Paterno. It was from that meeting that he said yes and agreed to an interview with no stipulations.''
On Sunday, Matt Sandusky attended the premiere.
''I felt it was important to share my perspective as a survivor in this documentary,'' Sandusky told The Associated Press in an e-mailed statement. ''After seeing the film, I am hopeful that it will help people understand some of what I have gone through. Now, I am moving forward as an advocate, forming a foundation dedicated to empowering survivors and educating communities about child sexual abuse.''
Matt Sandusky was listed as a defense witness at his father's 2012 trial, but he did not take the stand. Instead, he disclosed through lawyers that he had also been abused. Though Jerry Sandusky, 69, was convicted on 45 counts involving 10 boys, he maintains his innocence and is appealing his conviction.
In the film, Matt Sandusky expounds on his upbringing, the abuse he endured, and his tarnished relationship with the Sandusky family after he revealed he'd been abused by his father. He says Sandusky did, in fact, do great things for him, ''but there's another part that destroys you,'' he added.
Matt Sandusky is one of six children adopted by Jerry and Dottie Sandusky. He filed a motion last year to have his name, and that of his wife and four children, legally changed.
In letters released by Judge John Cleland in October 2012, Dottie Sandusky cast a critical eye on Matt Sandusky's claims. She wrote that he had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but that he refused to take his medication and that he ''had many run-ins with the law.''
''I suppose that anybody in the film could be shining me on,'' said Bar-Lev, who also directed ''The Tillman Story.'' "But I think Matt's believability and candor speak for themselves. Matt is not the only one who has been called untrustworthy, but his story matches many of the other stories. If you think that he is making this up, then you have to believe that the 25 other people also made it up.''
No other members of the Sandusky family agreed to participate in this film.
Footage shot last Thanksgiving shows a happy Matt Sandusky at home in Pennsylvania with his children. ''So much of the movie is an explanation of a moral puzzle that doesn't have easy answers,'' said Bar-Lev. ''But Matt's attention to his family and his enjoyment of his family was one kind of answer to the puzzle.''

Trying to get pregnant? Or just thinking about it? These nutrients can help you conceive - and prep your body for the healthiest pregnancy possible.
Ever wonder if there's something you should be getting more of now that you're trying to get pregnant? Well, there are a few. According to Natalie Burger, MD, a fertility specialist at Texas Fertility Center, good nutrition can help you get pregnant and prep your body for baby. Here are the vitamins you should take:
Zinc: Newsflash: You and your partner should be getting plenty of zinc. Zinc contributes to ovulation and fertility in women and also semen and testosterone production in men, according to the American Pregnancy Association. "It has been noted that zinc deficiency can correlate with impaired sperm production," says Burger. The Office of Dietary Supplements at the National Institutes of Health recommends that men receive a daily intake of 11 mg of zinc and women take 8 mg. Oysters have more zinc per serving than any other food, but you can also consume other foods rich in zinc like whole grains, other kinds of seafood, beans and dairy products.
Folic acid: This one is a must-have. The American Pregnancy Association recommends that all women of childbearing age consume about 400 micrograms of folic acid a day. Folic acid is a B-complex vitamin that is used by the body to create red blood cells. This vitamin makes extra blood for your body during pregnancy and it decreases the possibility of a neural tube defect (a problem in baby's spinal cord). Folic acid is the synthetic form of this vitamin, while folate is the naturally occurring form; both are OK to use. Since baby's neural tube develops in the first few weeks of pregnancy, it's important to be prepared.
"Both zinc and folate are important in the synthesis of DNA and RNA," says Burger. "Zinc and folate supplementation may benefit some male infertility cases." You can get your daily intake of folic acid from citrus fruits, whole grains and leafy greens.
Multivitamins: If you're already taking a multivitamin, you're in good shape. If you're not, start taking one now. "In a large study following over 18,000 women who were trying to get pregnant, researchers found a correlation between taking a multivitamin supplement and having a lower chance of ovulation problems," says Burger.
Iron: Start increasing the amount of iron in your diet now if you are not getting enough. Women's recommended iron intake is 18 mg a day, but pregnant women need around 27 mg daily. Iron is used to make hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying component of red blood cells. If your body doesn't have enough iron, your body's tissues and organs won't get the oxygen they need to function properly. You can normally get this amount in your multivitamin, but you can also find iron in foods like red meat, tofu and dark leafy green vegetables. Calcium: Nutrition experts recommend that women looking to get pregnant should consume around 1,000 mg a day, because when you do become pregnant your growing baby will need calcium. Actually, it's also recommended that all adults between ages 19 and 50 consume that amount of calcium in order to form strong bones and prevent osteoporosis. That's a crazy amount - even for a multivitamin! You can take a separate calcium supplement or take an over-the-counter prenatal formula. Working calcium into your diet isn't a bad idea either: Drink lots of milk and eat leafy greens.
Coenzyme Q10: Studies show that taking supplements of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) may help with both female and male infertility. "Preliminary animal data has suggested that the addition of CoQ10 may improve egg quality in 'old' mice," says Burger. "The correlating human study is ongoing." There is also evidence that CoQ10 can increase sperm count. According to the Mayo Clinic, CoQ10 is produced by the body and is necessary for the basic functioning of cells. For adults, the recommended daily dosage is 30 - 200 mg in divided doses throughout the day.
Omega 3 Free Fatty Acid: Take this essential fatty acid found in fish oil or certain plant or nut oils if you're undergoing IVF treatments. Your body can't make omega 3 fatty acid; you have to get it through food. "Increased omega 3 free fatty acid intake has been associated with improved embryo quality in an IVF study done in the Netherlands," says Burger.
Vitamin B6: Take this vitamin now to head off nasty pregnancy symptoms after you conceive. Research suggests that women who consumed at least 10 mg of vitamin B6 before they conceived reported less morning sickness than those who didn't.
Pass these to your partner:
In addition to zinc and CoQ10, guys who are trying to conceive can also take the following vitamins to boost their fertility:
Antioxidants: Taking these supplements like vitamin C and vitamin E may help with fertility. "In a small Spanish study comparing fertile and infertile men, a low intake of antioxidant nutrients was associated with poor semen quality," says Burger. You can take these vitamins in pill form or consume foods like oranges and strawberries (for vitamin C) and almonds and sunflower seeds (for vitamin E).
L-carnitine: "It's a substance that serves as an energy source for sperm and it plays an important role in sperm maturation and metabolism," says Burger. "The addition of L-carnitine may enhance sperm motility in some male factor infertility cases." You can get L-carnitine in supplement form.

Watch Episodes
and the dragon said:" Fuck this shit. I'm taking my broken toy and going home."
They are not ending all dc show.... And it's not an happy ending not for all character.. they are doing the crisis on infinite earth an only arrow will end after that they even have a new arroverse tv show comming Batwoman so it's not ending..Why are you even watching this anyway? Actually don't anwser you already did and your answer did'nt make sense XD
Episode 6 NOT 7
A good writer (like Martin) does not contradict his previous writing, does not rush the pace, does not leave gaping plot holes, and does not have characters change personalities randomly. The net is full of angry viewers--including professional writers and major new outlets--pointing out not a few, but dozens and dozens of examples where D&D (with no more of Martin's books to go by) went wrong. (One of the biggest is why the hell Daenerys didn't just take the three dragons south as soon as she arrived in Westeros, since they were apparently UNBELIEVABLY more powerful than previously shown.) The dissatisfaction with the ending is far more widespread and justified than that with previous hit shows. This show was THE preeminent show of this decade, and the overwhelming majority of those who watched--cutting across all divisions of class, creed, sex, and politics--think that D&D's final episodes FAILED. READ (OR GO ON YOUTUBE TO HEAR) SOME OF THESE CRITICS BEFORE YOU JUST DISMISS THEM.
Oh so happy little ending, and the beginning of the end about time to end all the DC show like this trash can of a show. Start over and do it right by the comics for once DC, this is your reset button don't blow it. "DC is like hold my beer, lets make the twilight vamp bot bat man" and everyone face palm, and walk away shaking their heads. Oh well maybe in another decade they may get past this, or not who knows.
It is a story written not by your hand nor mine but by one who has a tail he wishes to tell. So we read it and color it with our own views and wants and needs and then get disappointed that it didn't turn out how we wanted it to. Well that's funny because, as it was said everyone loves a good story and we have stuck with this one from the start. Through all the ups and down some good most bad but a good story none the less. Would i had done things different? of course i would so would everyone else and i would bet no two would be the same ether. You can not please everyone and all are a critic but none are the writers or have written other wise if you and yours was so great then you would be a writer and not doing what you are right now reading what another has written.
Here is the Link Watch it : https://verystream.com/stream/bbXEHypYjU4/ :)
Where are the links for this episode? We now have episode 15 but no 14
i was honestly ready for jon's death. the most satisfying moment was jon stabbing dany. i never liked her but i did feel alittle bad for her after all her journey but the woman she became as she grew up had this end destined for her. the starks suffered the worst and finally get what they deserved through all their long separate journeys. my only wish was ned stark to be there for bran and sansa's cornoration. i really really need a maisie spinoff. where she went? and reached. all her adventures. also i missed jaqen h'ghar this seasoon, but this episode most of all. overall more stisfying than most of the season. the first 5 episodes were a complete disapointment but now knowing it all led to this, i am very very satisfied.<3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Never read the books so not sure how it ended but i hope it was better than this. Most of its acceptable but the fact everyone glossed over Snow...you know, THE RIGHTFUL KING. TO MAKE BRAM KING...BRAM? THE LAST 8 YRS SEEM WASTED ON A STORY WITH A HALF ASS ENDING. EVERYONE TURNS ON EACHOTHER AT THE DROP OF A HAT, i want to believe that real people would not butcher a city of women n children but this sadly represents the true nature of mankind. The writer however is an ass for refusing to give a happy heroic ending to what WAS an EPIC TALE!
I smell some spin-offs here :) That said, worst finale (season) ever. RRM's hand was missed. I wonder and hope if he'll live long enough to finish those damn'd books!
Tyrion says, "There is nothing in the world more powerful than a good story." For 6 seasons, Martin's GoTh gave us one; in season 7 D&D gave us only a so-so one; in season 8 D&D gave us part of a good one, but mostly a TERRIBLE one. The laughter of the nobles of Westeros at the notion of giving the people (peasant fans) what they want is D&D's Freudian slip; the nobles (the writers who actually never have written anything significant) know so much better. I think of all that was right--all the hundreds of actors, prop-masters, trainers, filmers, etc. doing their best--and then of how fitting it is that Bran the Broken (Bran the Totally Unexplained & Irrelevant) ends up as king, since in the end that's what this show became--BROKEN--by the rushed, juvenile writing of two SCHLEPPERS who will never admit that they did so. TO SHOUT YOUR "HELL NO!" SIGN THE PETITION.
Why list this as trending when there are zero links?
Totaly STUPID ENDING, The Monitor reserects the villain, after all that? The pathetic loser from 2 an a half men as Lex is the biggest joke of the series, he does his best but hes not lex, inspires ridicule not fear.
Sh!t ending, Bram though, is something to look forward too Also Aria.....Sansa will be the next villan, the setup has already begun

1 example is, the dagger disappeared from reverse flash (who ceased to exist back in season 1, then was revived with his original body God knows how without Eddie reappearing and then he got his new body again) in the last moment before his execution, despite it not existing for past 20 years.
They screwed up everything about time travel in this show. They literally pick what changes (and when) based on nothing. It makes me miss 12 monkeys (syfy show) where they did that much much better (although not perfect) or even the single season frequency. In the flash, time travel is a joke.
Hey can anyone upload this series on a downloadable server like vShare or openload!! Please!
Except @Kyndryd they gave her the cure and they said the dagger was counteracting it so by destroying it the cure was no long counteracted and boom Cicada 2.0 no longer exists....make sense.
i feel like they jumped to the end
I watched Catch 22 from verystream 720p MP4s. Each was about 1/2G, took about 2min to DL, and looked & sounded okay on bigscreen. (Vidoza files were a little larger, but took 10x as long to DL.) The streaming was also smooth. So it looks like verystream may be openload's lovechild; all that's missing are 1080p's and MKVs.
@sswarlock (I'm assuming first in is the one who added these) THANKS. For those who don't know the 1961 book or the 1970 movie, this has dark humor (like MASH) and is told in a kind of stream-of-consciousness order. The acting is really good (a lot of star power), but the whole thing falls just a little flat, probably because what shocked 50-60 years ago seems tame today. But for those who have served in the military, the bs is still the same (cue Bob Seger...)
Learn some facts about the shows history
Loved the finale, gunna miss this series,mabey we'll buy it. After 12 years the gang says goodbye with special cameo by Sarah Michelle Gellar ! I think im crying.
Nvm that link sucks too, only synced in the beginning few minutes
Actual good link since this site sucks since openload died:
what the HELL just happened?
Add download link verystream
FUCKING HELL. I should have seen it coming.
This season sucked ass.
WTF. A cliffhaangear? I HATE YOU.
2 links? where did everyone else go?
I'm not a big fan of sitcoms (my favorite is and always will be MASH) but this sitcom was good and refreshing and it too, has been canceled. This sitcom I feel depicted the 70's better than That 70's Show. I was a teen in the 70's and this sitcom almost hit the nail on the head. I like it a lot better than the Conner's!
This drama is a bit cheesy but a fun cheesy and it too, has been canceled. They never really gave it a chance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe this wonderful drama has been canceled!!!!!!!!!!!!! What are they thinking? For the People is a lot better than the new drama The Code! The actors in For the People are great for being young but I can't say that about the actors in The Code! I watched one episode of TC and knew I didn't want to watch the next episode(s).
Anyone happen to get episodes with English voice overs instead of subtitles?
GRiMM427, how can you say that it is ok for a teenager to have a kid. They are a teenager. If you are ok with teen pregnancy then you are part of the problem.
@darkstar88 with that comment, you should of been aborted.
Come to the other side. We have Ice Cream.
Is Hermione Lodge a moron, I mean... Polly is in high school! Why are they even making it an issue. The baby should be aborted, no high schooller should have a kid! These parents need to grow up!
check out Ginnifer Goodwin doing something 'different'.
and now for something a bit 'different'.
Take the time to preview shit before you upload it. Out of sync and annoying as fuck. SMFH.
this show simply does not go on with out those three.

Responding to gaps in knowledge in the Mediterranean region
The Mediterranean region is recognised as a Global Biodiversity Hotspot, both in the terrestrial and marine environments, that is subject to rapid anthropogenic change.
Like in most regions of the world, knowledge of the biodiversity of the Mediterranean region is heterogeneous at country level, sometimes restricted to species lists, occasionally also including spatial distribution. Data is dispersed, and there is no regional summary, nor internationally recognised baseline for easily assessing which plants or invertebrates listed as endemic or on national red lists are in fact truly threatened. Taxonomic expertise is often lacking, and there may be disagreements on nomenclature and classification, especially for the lower taxonomic groups. Protection measures for large mammals (eg. seals, cetaceans, antelopes) and birds tend to be adequate , but where biodiversity hotspots for flora, and other groups, have been identified there is as yet little explicit linkage to regional and national policies, beyond the limited species lists under the Habitats Directive and Barcelona Convention.
The IUCN Mediterranean Biodiversity Assessment Initiative aims to produce an analysis of a wide range of species at a regional level; it will be the first at this scale and will be replicated at other global biodiversity hotspots around the world in the future. In addition, occurrence of threatened species is a key criterion in the identification of key biodiversity areas through combining spatial data on all vertebrate and plant species, hence moving away from "Important Bird Areas" or "Important Plant Areas" towards a more holistic approach to biodiversity conservation.
IUCN's role
IUCN has already begun the assessment of Mediterranean reptile, amphibian, shark and freshwater fish species. This has demonstrated not only the willingness of the scientific community, the vast majority of whom act in this process as volunteers, to contribute to the assessments, but the degree to which the conservation community considers a Regional Red List as an essential regional tool for guiding and assessing nature conservation priorities and progress.
The initiative seeks to mobilize existing knowledge on species status that may be dispersed or unpublished, and ensure that it is made available for conservation purposes. The key role of IUCN is to coordinate the process ensuring full participation of all appropriate experts, validate the quality of the information, ensuring results of the highest scientific quality, and free of potential individual interests of participating scientists.
- Assess regional species status for the major taxonomic groups
- Support the assessment process and the production of national Red Lists to guide conservation decision-making and monitoring at national level (eg Egypt, Tunisia, Turkey).
The objective is to compile the data and the species assessments that form the basis of the Mediterranean Red List for the major taxonomic groups. IUCN will manage the work being done among the different Specialist Groups and coordinate the incoming data to ensure that assessments are completed to standard and within the timeframe. Once a preliminary assessment has been completed and compiled, a workshop will be organised to validate the results. Finally the coordinator (assisted by a consultant, appropriate Red List Authority or Commission specialist group chair) will go through each of the assessments made and the feedback from the workshop to derive a final compilation of assessments that will provide the final outputs of the assessment process and the basis for the reports and information dissemination.
Thirteen taxonomic groups (amphibians, cetaceans, crabs, crayfish, dragonflies, mammals, molluscs, aquatic plants, freshwater fishes, marine fishes, sharks and rays, reptiles, marine vegetation), have been evaluated (the initial project was on 10 groups), due to synergies with other projects (assessment of freshwater in Africa, etc.).
Partners / Donors
The project received the support of several donors including the MAVA Foundation, the AECID, the European Commission, the Italian Ministry for the Environment, Land and Sea, and the TOTAL Foundation.
May 2006 to December 2010.
Budget: 846.000 Euros

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
More than two weeks into the current Gaza war, Israel on Sunday suffered its first bout of serious international condemnation after a day of bloody fighting that left dead 13 Israeli soldiers and at least 70 Palestinians.
If Palestinian estimates are to be believed, the bulk of their dead were civilians, residents of the battered Gaza City suburb of Shejaiya.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon labeled the Israeli operation "an atrocious action," and US Secretary of State John Kerry sarcastically quipped, "It's a hell of a pinpoint operation."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, meanwhile, explained that the assault on Shejaiya was absolutely necessary, given that the neighborhood had been used to launch some 150 missile attacks on the Jewish state over the past week, and that it continued to house a sizable arsenal of projectiles.
Situated less than a mile from Gaza's border with southern Israel, Shejaiya was described by Israeli troops operating there as a vast Hamas stronghold, with a huge network of terror tunnels used to store missiles and infiltrate southern Israel.
Netanyahu said this was a strategic threat that simply had to be dealt with. Addressing a press conference in which he confirmed the deaths of 13 Israeli soldiers during the fighting in Shejaiya, the prime minister stated:
"Last night 's action revealed more tunnels, in addition to others that we already uncovered, some of which reached Israel. We found handcuffs, sedating drugs. There is no question this is a strategic component for Hamas. …If these tunnels were not found, then the results would have been a lot worse."
As for the high number of Palestinian deaths, Netanyahu stressed that Israel had very clearly warned the residents of Shejaiya to evacuate days before the assault.
"We urged the civilian population to evacuate for days, through leaflets, broadcasts, telephone calls. We urged them to evacuate, because we didn't want to see innocent civilians caught in the crossfire between Israel and Hamas," the Israeli leader insisted. "But it is Hamas that ordered the civilians to stay put. It is Hamas that wanted those civilians to stay, so it would have a human shield for its terrorist machine."
As former US President Bill Clinton explained last week, the high civilian death toll was likely part of Hamas' barbaric plan.
Hamas has "a strategy designed to force Israel to kill their own civilians so that the rest of the world will condemn them (Israel)," Clinton told India's NDTV.
Some argue that if Clinton's assertion is indeed true, then Israel should refrain from obliging the terror group.
But the situation is like that of a petulant child, incessantly kicking, biting and otherwise assaulting an older and stronger sibling until the inevitable retaliation comes, and then crying foul. Being a father of five, I am well acquainted with this scenario.
At some point, barring parental interference, the older sibling has to take some kind of action to halt the assaults and, if possible, deter future aggression. If not, the younger, belligerent sibling will simply continue escalating his or her attacks until a response of some sort materializes.
The very same is the case with Hamas. It has been steadily escalating its attacks against Israel, drawing out that inevitable response. And the international community, like a bad parent, all but ignored the long initial provocation, and only interfered in any meaningful capacity after Israel had become fed up and taken action.
If the world truly cared about the 70 or more Palestinians killed on Sunday, it would have nipped this problem in the bud months or even years ago by preventing Hamas' military build-up, because for any reasonable observer, the ultimate outcome was obvious.
The same is true of our parent in the above scenario. If I, as a father, really care about preventing violence between my children, then I stop the unruly younger sibling in his or her tracks before the older child has need of responding.
Likewise, if politicians and pundits are genuine in their position that Israel has a right to defend itself, then why in their criticism of actions like yesterday's do they not offer viable alternatives? If Israel shouldn't have assaulted Shejaiya in such force in order to destroy the vast number of terror tunnels and rockets found there, then what should it have done?
Israel needed to do something, because its parent, the international community, clearly wasn't going to. No one is happy about the deaths in Shejaiya. But no one is providing alternative solutions to a situation that couldn't be permitted to continue.

Doctor Who TARDIS Talking Cookie Jar
The perfect excuse to keep all the cookies
- Cookie jar in the shape of the TARDIS
- Makes authentic TARDIS sound effects
- A must for Doctor Who fans who like cookies
We don't know about you, but we miss the days when we lived alone. Back then, we could have a jar full of cookies and know exactly how many were left. Simple mathematics. 51 Oreos in a package, minus 2 before work, minus 2 when we got home, minus 2 after dinnner with a glass of cold milk. We knew that package of Oreos would last approximately 8.5 days. But now that we're saddled with significant others, roommates, and/or geeklings, the math gets complicated. With so many variables, it's nearly impossible to solve for x (x being the number of cookies currently in the jar, duh). We can usually assume x is equal to or greater than one, because most humans won't eat the last cookie, but even that constant isn't so constant around some people.
The Talking TARDIS Cookie Jar will solve for x in a way that hearkens back to your single days. For starters, we're pretty sure it's bigger on the inside. But most importantly, it makes authentic TARDIS noises (which, we suppose is why they say it's "talking" even though it doesn't say any words). So when the cookie jar disappears from the kitchen counter and gets hidden somewhere else, you can feign ignorance and say, "It's a TARDIS, it's probably taking a quick trip to Pompeii." When it reappears the next morning, you can point and shout with glee to welcome it back, knowing full well how many cookies it contains.
Product Specifications
- Cookie jar in the shape of a time lord's favorite time machine
- Doesn't actually "talk" but makes authentic TARDIS sounds
- Anyone fluent in TARDIS should write us with a translation
- We're pretty sure it says, "Feed me cookies, Earth creature!"
- Dimensions: 11" x 6" x 6"
- Takes 3 1.5V G13 button cell batteries (included)

Author Notes: In a former life, I owned a fish market. In addition to selling fresh fish, we offered prepared foods to take home - a radical concept at the time - and this dish was prepackaged with instructions. It's a rich, bright dinner party meal that whips up in less than 10 minutes and never fails to impress. Best with the first sorrel of the season. Sorrel is one of the easiest herbs to grow (note: invasively so) but this sauce guarantees it a home in my garden. - MrsWheelbarrow —MrsWheelbarrow
Food52 Review: MrsWheelbarrow's salmon with sorrel has all the markings of professional training; the unexpected beauty behind this dish is that it can be executed from start to finish in under 30 minutes by even a relatively new cook. Once the herbs are chopped and the salmon sliced into two-bite slivers, all that's required is a quick broil (it barely took us 30 seconds to cook our salmon through) and an almost equally brief spell in a hot pan for the sauce. The result is an elegant, balanced dish that we'd pull out for a dinner party, or just a weeknight dinner we were looking to make a little special. A note: if you can't find sorrel, you can substitute baby spinach. - A&M —The Editors
Serves: 4
Prepare the Sauce
tablespoons butter
Prepared Salmon - see below
cups fresh sorrel leaves, chopped rough
cup chervil
cup chives, with flowers if possible
cup heavy cream
salt and pepper
Prepare the Salmon
pound beautiful, wild, center cut salmon (Alaskan King is my preference here, but any wild caught salmon will do)
Prepare the Sauce
- Adjust an oven rack to be at the very top of the oven. Preheat the broiler. Warm the plates (very important) in a sink of warm water, your extra oven (ha), or remove them from the just run dishwasher.
- Prepare all ingredients and stage. This dish comes together quickly and you don't want to be scrambling. Hold back the chive flowers, if you have them.
- When the oven is ready, start the sauce. In a large, wide skillet, melt the butter until it starts to toast. It should be golden brown. At this point, put the salmon under the broiler.
- Add the sorrel, chervil and chives to the butter and coat quickly. Allow them to wilt a little, and then pour in the cream. Bring to a boil and reduce just until the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper, remembering you have seasoned the fish.
- The salmon should now be ready. (2-3 minutes) Watch it carefully the entire time it's in the oven -- it could take you as little as 30 seconds, depending on your oven.
- Dry the warm plates. Place four medallions per person on each plate and decorate with the sauce, being very generous. Sprinkle chive flower petals and serve with crusty bread.
Prepare the Salmon
- Slice the salmon into thin medallions. A flexible salmon slicing knife is my choice, but any long thin knife will work well. It must be very sharp. Slice on a slight angle cutting away the skin as you go. Aim for 16 pieces.
- Place the salmon on a sheet pan lined with parchment and very lightly oiled. Brush the tops very lightly with oil. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the fish.
- PS I like to put the salmon skin under the broiler, too. Salt well. It's a delicious cook's snack.
- Your Best Salmon Contest Winner!
- This recipe is a Community Pick!

Document: Dougherty sibling planned Colo. escape
DENVER – One of three siblings who was part of a multistate crime spree and nationwide manhunt planned to escape from a Colorado jail with his sister, telling the FBI in a letter that he had enjoyed his stay, authorities said in a document released Friday.
Dylan Dougherty, 26, got out of his cell in Walsenburg, Colo., and wrote a note to his sister telling her he was going to break her out of jail, officials said. Dylan Dougherty is now being held at the Pueblo County Jail, some 45 miles north of the jail in Walsenburg where he was being held, along with his two siblings.
Dougherty's attorney, Cobea Becker did not immediately return phone messages.
During a Jan. 10 search, deputies found a homemade knife and letter to the FBI in his cell, according to an arrest affidavit.
Deputies also discovered that a panel in Dougherty's cell that allows access to the plumbing had been tampered with, as had the insulation just inside. A deputy followed the plumbing to the ceiling and discovered footprints in there, and in the female section of the jail, a letter addressed to his sister, Lee Grace Dougherty, 29, who was being held in that area.
Dylan Dougherty told his sister he planned to subdue the guards, steal their keys and escape with her. The note stated that when the FBI received the letter, he would be long gone from the Huerfano County Jail and he would leave the tools he used to escape behind, authorities said.
"I have enjoyed staying here, so don't take any of this personal," investigators quote the note as saying.
The letter to his sister said she should "have all her personal belongings ready, and that Dylan was going to get in through the ceiling to the control room where the detention staff are, and drop down on them," according to the affidavit. "He stated he would then tie them up and take the keys from them, and then they would just walk out."
Dylan Dougherty's was able to move around so freely in the ceiling that he was able to pass the note to his sister. Deputies discovered the note in the pod where she is being held, Huerfano County Sheriff Bruce Newman said.
"He's the first one who has ever gotten into one (an access panel)," Newman said. "All you can do is go from cell to cell. You can't escape from there."
Newman said the ceiling bumps into cinderblocks. As for Dougherty's plan to drop down into the control center, Newman said that area is enclosed by cinderblocks and not accessible from the ceiling.
"We've repaired the access panel and double locked them," Newman said.
The Doughertys and their brother, Ryan Dougherty, 22, were captured in southern Colorado on Aug. 10 after a chase, capping a nationwide search. All three had been held at the tiny jail that can hold up to 34 inmates in five pods that have two to four cells each. It was opened in 1989, Newman said.
Ryan Dougherty and Lee Grace Dougherty remain at the jail. Newman said there are no plans to move them elsewhere.
"With Dylan being the instigator of this and his being caught, the major part of this threat is gone," Newman said. "We're really a lot more alert and watching them a lot closer now."
Newman said there was some concern with holding all three in the same jail, adding that guards took stepped up security measures that included more impromptu searches — called shakedowns — of Dylan's Doughtery's cell that uncovered the plan.
The three siblings are accused of robbing a Valdosta, Ga., bank and firing at a police officer in Zephyrhills, Fla., who was chasing their car when one of the suspects began shooting at his cruiser, disabling it, the FBI said.
In the Colorado chase, shots were fired at officers before the suspects' car rolled and crashed into a guardrail, authorities said.
Lee Grace Dougherty is set to go on trial Feb. 21 on attempted second-degree murder, assault and other charges related to the chase.
The brothers were granted a stay in proceedings until Monday, so federal and Florida prosecutors can decide how to proceed in the case.
In addition to charges stemming from the crime spree, Dylan Dougherty faces counts of conspiracy to escape and possession of contraband for the escape plan discovered during the search, authorities said.
During a September hearing, a Colorado Springs detective testified that Ryan Daugherty, the youngest of the three, told him that they hatched a plan to rob a bank and take the money to flee to Mexico.
Ryan Dougherty had just been sentenced to register as a sex offender for a conviction of sending sexually explicit text messages to an 11-year-old girl.
The siblings' mother, Barbara Bell of East Palatka, Fla., told The Associated Press in August that her son was discouraged by the terms of his probation and feared the conviction would prohibit him from seeing his newborn son.
Authorities in Florida said all three siblings had been living together in Lacoochee, Fla., about 45 miles northeast of Tampa, and each had a criminal record. Lee Dougherty has charges pending against her in Florida for hit and run and had previously been charged with battery. Stanley Dougherty had been charged with marijuana possession.

by Dave Finley, NRAO
SOCORRO, N.M., June 15, 2004 -- The National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) and New Mexico Tech (NMT) are hosting more than 150 students this week at a summer school aimed at teaching astronomers how to use radio telescopes such as the Very Large Array (VLA) and the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA). The students come from across the U.S. and from 12 foreign countries.
Held in Socorro every two years, the Synthesis Imaging Summer School teaches the intricacies of using multi-antenna radio telescopes to produce finely-detailed images of celestial objects. Participants in the school include undergraduates, graduate students and working astronomers. Instructors for the school include scientists from NRAO, New Mexico Tech, the Owens Valley Radio Observatory, and the University of Hawaii.
The summer school began June 15 and lasts through June 22.
"The purpose of this summer school is to prepare the next generation of astronomers to use our facilities to do the cutting-edge astronomical research of the future," said James Ulvestad, NRAO's director for New Mexico operations.
"The techniques we teach are applicable not only to our radio telescopes, but also to similar radio-telescope systems around the world and to future telescopes that still are on the drawing boards," Ulvestad added.
New Mexico Tech President Daniel H. Lopez welcomed the attendees and pointed out to them that NM Tech's Magdalena Ridge Observatory will apply some of the same techniques to visible-light astronomy.
The National Radio Astronomy Observatory is a facility of the National Science Foundation, operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc.

Pirate Papa: A Journal of Anarcho-Green D.I.Y. Parenting
From the review on Northwest Zineworks, thanks to Caroline Tigeress, keepin things real in Longview, Washington. I think it's funny she thinks I'm thirty something when I'm really barely 24. Hee hee hee. More ass-kickin' localoly zines to be reviewed soon!
A hefty Papazine, Pirate Papa covers sane parenting techniques, but oh-so-much more. Sky Cosby's work came to us via The Portland Zine Symposium 2006 and we're not the same. His blunt, in-your-face no-frills, parenting zine is a straight lift from his blog Pirate Papa formatted nicely into a half-sized zine. Pirate Papa is much more than any sort of parenting zine though, it's about the adventure that is parenting. Pirate Papa doesn't just gloss over the happy crap. Because he's taking it all in from the thirtysomething perspective you get the understanding that Sky understands the value of work that us momma creatures already knew was out there. The difference is Sky honors it, and Sky nurtures it. He tries to be aware of what's going on AS it's going on, and that makes all the difference. Sky's reference material is long, longer than anyone could ever have imagined, and we are better because of it – the back pages of his zine are long lists of links – good stuff to know not just for the parent, but for the parent to be. Full of cool recipies (crepes…mmm…crepes…) short little blurts (notes on a gay daddy's blog who lives in a red state) to an in-depth examination about how his daughter's neurons are firing as they learn the things of life. This is a parenting zine not to be missed.
45 pages, $5.00 - shoot me off an e-mail to: sky.cosby(at)gmail.com, slap the money in the mail and I'll pick up the postage!
