Washington Auto Insurance Laws
Washington auto insurance law requires a liability policy with limits of at least 25/50/10, which means $25,000 for injury to another person, $50,000 for injuries to all other persons, and $10,000 for physical damage to another's property.
Drivers visiting from another state still have to comply with Washington State's Mandatory Auto Insurance Law. Check your insurance policy. Generally there is a broadening clause which allows for the policy liability limits to rise to meet the minimum required in the state of operation.
By switching my car insurance, I've saved over $600. Your brokers

DOVER — An electric sander was the cause of a one-alarm fire that struck a two-story home on Shore Lane Thursday evening.
Firefighters responded to a residence still under construction in the development directly across from St. Thomas Aquinas High School where a flooring worker had returned to the building after leaving earlier in the afternoon. Upon his return, he reportedly found a large portion of the first floor of the blue and white home, which displayed a "for sale" sign by the Bean Group, to be on fire.
According to Chief Richard Driscoll, the fire was caused by dust that spontaneously combusted and burned through the bag of the electric sander, fell onto the floor and ignited, spreading over a significant area and then through the floor to the basement.
He said the flooring worker reported the fire at 5:53 p.m. bringing crews from Dover to respond. On scene crews found fire on both the first floor and in the basement. Driscoll said there was also extensive smoke damage throughout the house.
Providing station coverage were a ladder truck from the Durham Fire Department and an engine from the Somersworth Fire Department at the Liberty North End station; Rollinsford covered Central Station downtown; and the Newington Fire Department provided coverage at Dover's South End station.

WINNIPEG - Manitoba is relaxing weight restrictions on provincial roads to help move more grain and ease a current backlog.
The province says the one-time amendment will help farmers move grain to strategic locations from where it can be shipped to market.
Weight restrictions are usually imposed in the spring when rain and thawing can weaken the road.
Transportation Minister Steve Ashton says helping get surplus grain to market is the government's top priority.
A bumper crop combined with a transportation bottleneck has left grain sitting in bins across the Prairies.
Ottawa has ordered Canada's rail companies to double the amount of grain they ship in a week or they will face fines.

The Brunch Dish: Eccentric Ethnic Eats at La Sirena Clandestina
Reviews of brunch dishes.
Brunch at La Sirena Clandestina is so novel and eclectic it should almost require passport verification. Brimming with sultry sauces, international ingredients, exotic menu names, and a touch of whimsy, it's the perfect balance of serious cooking and adventure, and the results are one of the most unique brunch programs currently in Chicago.
Since opening his South American enclave, John Manion has proven his knack for infusing traditionally inspired Brazilian fare with a tasteful dash of eccentricity on his dinner menu. That same enthusiasm parlays to brunch with items such as the breakfast empanada ($4 plus $2 with a fried egg). Basically, it's a gourmet Hot Pocket, filled with bacon, sage, and cheddar. All empanadas at La Sirena are baked, ensuring each one is delicate, flaky, and as light as a bundle of dough can possibly be. They're about the size of a small fist, so they're not too filling either, leaving plenty of room for further menu navigation.
For a pancake that will completely change your perception of pancakes, try the okonomiyaki ($12), a Japanese pancake worlds away from the stuff peddled in heaping stacks throughout America. This savory pancake is egg-based, with a texture and flavor more akin to a souffléd frittata. It's a solitary pancake studded with green onions and bean sprouts, liberally spritzed with kewpie mayo, an unctuous umami bomb reminiscent of soy sauce. It's a salty affair, but just like a bag of chips, it's hard to stop eating.
La Sirena also offers a Latin-inspired riff on shrimp and grits with its shrimp baiano ($16). All the requisite players are on deck, albeit reinterpreted and re-flavored in bold new ways. Hulking head-on shrimp take center stage, spiced with habanero and perfectly plump and succulent. Dredge the shrimp through some excess habanero sauce and pretend you're eating the most kickass shrimp cocktail ever. They're served over a bed of polenta, though bed may be too soft a word, considering it's a solid polenta cake more similar to a cot. By serving the polenta in cake form, and searing it gently to create a thin crust, it lends more body to the dish. It also makes it easier to spear composed bites on your fork. The polenta itself, once you slice into it, is luscious and velvety, like a savory corn panna cotta. The plate is finished with some fresh cilantro and cashews, adding some crunch to the party and freshening you're over-spiced mouth.
Whatever time of day he's cooking, John Manion is always full of bold twists and turns. His enigmatic spirit and talent lends itself so well to brunch, a meal that is often overlooked as predictable and stale, resulting in one of the most exhilarating brunch experiences this city has seen.

Sea kayaking Utah's Green River through Labyrinth and Stillwater Canyons: Part II
There are lots of cool and interesting things to see and do while kayaking the Green River through Utah's Labyrinth and Stillwater Canyons.
Dozens of Anasazi ruins — including the two-story lookout tower at Ft. Bottom — are tucked away among the cliffs. There are petroglyph panels decorated with horned gods and mysterious messages. There's Register Rock, the Bowknot Bend "post office" and the outlaw cabin supposedly used by Butch and Sundance in their horse thieving days. Numerous side canyons offer hikes into the secret delights of places like Upheaval Dome and the surreal landscapes of The Doll's House and the Maze in Canyonlands National Park.
All kinds of wonderful, marvelous, amazing things.
You won't read about any of that here.
Initially our plan for a kayaking trip down the Green exuded mellowness. Tom Brown and I would launch at Ruby Ranch north of Moab and leisurely paddle and drift for five days and one hundred miles to Spanish Bottom below the Green and Colorado River's confluence. Along the way we'd see the canyon sights, do some hikes, lay around like lizards on the beaches, grow fat on all the food we'd brought and become so carefree, lazy and indolent, we'd forget our names. With so much contemplative time all the mysteries of life would be solved.
Instead we ended up paddling through the canyons as if pursued by howling horned gods.

I am a Tribal Belly Dance teacher, and mom to an 18 month old, I dance a lot, so that surely helped, but when my son was real little, I wore him and did gentle dancing. I actually teach a babywearing belly dance class, it is great!
I'm mom of four myself, so in the last time it took a little bit longer to get my body fully back. I started taking cabaret belly dance lessons a week after my youngest was born and after six months I was in better shape than ever... But nobody ever warned me about how addicting bellydance could be, now I'm having nine hours in a week minimum of classes :)

America's car thieves just can't get enough late '90s Honda sedans, but a few Detroit models are starting to catch some notice as well, based on LoJack's analysis of the 10,649 vehicles stolen with its systems installed last year.
Older Hondas and Toyotas have long topped the list of most stolen vehicles, based on the demand for spare parts and the relative lack of factory-installed antitheft devices. The most frequently recovered vehicle with a LoJack locator was a 2000 Honda Civic; the next five top models were all late '90s Honda Accords.
Among cars less than five years old — many of which come with smart keys and even GPS locators like OnStar built in — the most stolen vehicles were the 2007 and 2009 Toyota Camry.
Most Stolen and Recovered Vehicles by Make & Model:
2010 Rank Model 2009 Rank
1. Honda Accord 2
2. Honda Civic 1
3. Toyota Camry 3
4. Acura Integra 4
5. Cadillac Escalade 5
6. Toyota Corolla 6
7. Dodge Ram (New)
8. Nissan Altima 8
9. Nissan Maxima (New)
10. Chevrolet Tahoe 7
While auto theft has been on a long-term decline, LoJack says its on the rise again in some cities, and even at its reduced rate some $5.2 billion in lost assets. It's top 10 states for auto theft:
States with the Most Stolen and Recovered Vehicles:
2010 Rank State 2009 Rank

2. Texas 2
3. Florida 3

Modern households run smoothly and efficiently with the help of a variety of household appliances, washing machines do the laundry, dishwashers clean utensils and vacuum cleaners sweep up dirt! In fact running a modern home without an assortment of trusty appliances would be both backbreaking and time consuming. A microwave oven is the perfect example of an appliance that simplifies everyday life by easily heating up food and faster, timed cooking that gives perfect results each time! For example, a microwave oven can be preset to a time for boiling milk so you will never have spilt milk all over your gas hob again, it also frees you up to do other chores while dishes cook perfectly in the microwave oven.
Given the advantages that a microwave oven provides it is understandable if you are rather frustrated when your microwave oven breaks down. The first decision to make is whether the age and condition of your microwave oven justifies the expense of repairing it or if it is better replaced. If you decide to repair your microwave oven, it is important to hire a reputable microwave oven repair service to make sure that your microwave oven is not damaged and the repair is done in a timely, efficient and professional manner.
There are many other factors consumers need to consider before hiring an appliance repair service. Home appliances are expensive, and you will want to ensure that the company you hire is reputable and has the skills required to complete the fix in a timely and efficient manner.
To start with research any potential microwave oven repair and service agencies, look online and ask for references from friends and family. Check how long a microwave oven repair service has been in business and read online reviews and ratings. When calling a microwave oven repair service ask clearly about visit charges for when the microwave oven service professional will visit your home to inspect the microwave oven. Some services will offer to offset the visit charge against the charges for repair if you hire them for the microwave oven repair job.
When the microwave oven service representative inspects your microwave oven it is important to ask for a clear explanation of the fault in the microwave oven, the parts that need to be replaced, the time involved in the repair and the estimated cost of repair. Also inquire about whether the replaced parts will be original, branded and under warranty and whether the microwave oven repair service employees are factory trained and certified to perform the repair. Reputable microwave oven repair services should provide a warranty for the repair job.
Give us a call and we can help match you with the right professional for the job!

I was wondering what your opinion on the Enchantment "scrolls" that Blizzard has put up on the Arena Tournament PTR. If these were implemented on the Live servers (as of now they are only available on the Arena Tournament PTR).
How do you think they would affect the AH economy as well as raiding and PvP? Would enchanters be pleased or angry about such a change? Should there only be certain enchantments available as scrolls: only low level enchantments as a way to get rid of low level mats there might be laying around; should high level enchants such as Mongoose and Executioner only be available through an actual enchanter and still require the interaction? Also, what about these scrolls be use ala Mithril Spurs and Counter-Weight style where you are free to craft them and sell them but it is a requirement to find a crafter to apply them to your gear?
Jeez that was a lot, but I still have more! Ha ha.
Another thing that the enchanting scrolls and the recent change to Primal Nethers and Vortexes made me think about was: what if enchanters were to get their own BoP reagent needed for certain high level enchants (Mongoose and Executioner-like enchants from WotLK). Let's call it a Primal Shard or Nether Crystal (I know kind of lame). I was thinking that instead of being a drop like Primal Nethers and Vortexes are, they would be available through disenchanting. Something like a 10% chance upon disenchanting Rare items and a 50% chance upon disenchanting Epic items. I figured a change such as this would allow enchanters to have something that lets them charge for enchants beyond just a tip (which can be woefully low from some people) yet a relatively high chance to get them from disenchanting would keep them at a level where they would be somewhat valuable yet not overpriced. Another way for them to be gained could also be another enchanting recipe that would turn several Void Crystals or Large Prismatic Shards into a Nether Crystal.
Before I answer the question, let me tell a story about selling enchants.
Back in pre-TBC days, Fiery was a very popular weapon enchant, and it required 4 Small Radiant Shards. One day, I was in Ironforge and an enchanter (we'll call him Tim), started hawking Fiery in Trade Chat.
Tim: Levelling up Enchanting. Will pay you 1 gold to enchant Fiery if you provide mats.
Amused, I checked the Auction House. Sure enough, all the Small Radiant Shards were up for double the normal buyout, all being sold by Tim.
I sent Tim a tell congratulating him on his scheme, and he confirmed that he had several sales that day, making a healthy profit.
Anyways, one of the big problems with Enchanting is that you can't enchant gear for your alts. Scrolls solve that problem nicely, and is one reason I don't expect scrolls to require an enchanter to use. So I don't think the mithril spurs model is a good idea.
The interaction on the economy will be interesting. I don't think enchanters need a BoP mat, because the supply of materials is controlled *entirely* by enchanters. It's like jewelcrafting, but even more extreme. It really depends on how many enchanters continue to sell materials versus the number of enchanters who switch to selling enchants.
Part of the problem is that is very hard to justify a crafting fee when the buyer provides the materials. So the harder it is for the buyer to get materials, the higher the premium the finished product can command. Theoretically, enchanting would be very lucrative if the enchanter provided materials, because the number of capable enchanters available at any one time is low, but in practice everyone buys the materials first, then finds an enchanter and tips them a gold or two.
So my predictions are, if enchanting moves to the scrolls:
- Supply of enchanting mats dries up. Enchanters will keep their mats and produce enchants for sale, much the same way that jewelcrafters keep raw gems and sell finished gems.
- Price of enchants increases.
- However, it will be much easier to find and purchase the enchant you want using the AH.
More convenience for everyone, but higher prices for everyone as well.

As title suggests I'm in need of a set of data of our solar system. Similar to this http://bima.astro.umd.edu/nemo/archive/#iau25, specifically dubinsky milky way-andromeda data.
I'm creating a n-body simulation for school and can't seem the find any initial particle conditions which I could use to simulate our solar system in the software I'm developing. I need initial positions, velocity and mass.
Any idea where I could find this?
Thank you.

I missed your call another day and though the years will pass you so quickly I hope you know that I'll be here, if ever you need me, but... Its all my fault for bringing on this pain. I locked my vaults and threw away the keys. So kill it out of me, so quickly I need you to know, I didn't plan for this and while you grow I want to be there for it. Please promise me I'll get the chance another day. Well I've been without you and each night it keeps me up wide awake, a different place I'm only doing what I know how to do. To best provide for you. Though I can't spend my time with you.

THE SPORTS DOCTOR- 2009: Lance, Tiger, A-Rod made it memorable
Another year has come and gone, and we are all a little older and hopefully a bit wiser. At any rate, I've assembled a list of my top-10 stories of 2009. Some were covered in columns and some weren't, but it should be entertaining to stroll down memory lane. (Listed in no particular order.)
1. The Steelers defeat the Cardinals in the Super Bowl– Considering how Pittsburgh and Arizona are performing this season, it's difficult to believe both teams faced off in the Super Bowl last winter. Lest we forget, the Steelers won 27-23, and wide receiver Santonio Holmes was the MVP.
2. Federer wins French– After years and years of trying, Roger Federer finally won the French Open. So what if Rafael Nadal was nowhere to be found? And let's not forget that epic Wimbledon final against Andy Roddick– 4 hours and 16 minutes of some of the best tennis ever played.
3. A-Rod comes clean (almost)– Haven't we always know Alex Rodriguez was juicing? Last February, A-Rod admitted to taking steroids– well, to allowing a relative to inject him in 2003. How convenient. It was almost anticlimactic. The Yankees have made a habit of having players 'fess up just before or during spring training (Jason Giambi and Andy Pettitte). Who will it be in 2010? Certainly not Nick Swisher!
4. Mark Buehrle pitches a perfect game– Though he didn't do it alone, White Sox pitcher Mark Buehrle pitched MLB's first perfect game since Randy Johnson in 2004 and the first in the American League since Dave Cone in 1999. You don't see the big deal? In 134 years of Major League Baseball, only 17 other people have accomplished this feat. No runs. No hits. No walks. No errors: 27 up, 27 down.
5. Tom Watson loses– I'm still not counting golf as a sport, but even I have to condone the hullabaloo when Tom Watson lost the playoff to Stewart Cink at this year's British Open. The 59-year-old was about to become the oldest winner of a major championship, but a missed putt on the final hole put the kibosh on that. Nevertheless, it was one of the greatest feel-good stories of the year.
6. The Eagles hire Michael Vick– Finally we all get to move on.
7. Manny Ramirez is suspended for 50 games– A mere nine months after signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Manny Ramirez became the most famous baseball player to be suspended under baseball's new drug policy (it's a good thing Darryl Strawberry is retired). Manny tested positive for a female fertility drug, known to restore testosterone in steroid users. It cost him 50 games and $7.7 million of his $25 million salary. Of course, Ramirez blamed it on his doctor.
8. Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather agree to fight– After what seemed a decade of trash talk and evasion, Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr. lived up to his nickname and agreed to fight Manny Pacquiao, probably the best boxer in the world. The proposed date is March 13, and the bout is set at welterweight lever (about 147 lbs). The fight is projected to garner over three million PPV buys– so potentially lucrative that Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones is lobbying hard to have it take place in his new stadium.
9. Tiger Woods and his "accident"– I think I'm done with this.
10. Thierry Henry plays handball– While soccer doesn't hold the same fascination for Americans as it does for the rest of the world, even we know that no one can use hands except the goalie. When France's striker admitted that he deliberately used his hands in a play that cost Ireland a World Cup berth, it was the shot heard round the world. Only FIFA is considered a bigger villain for not allowing a rematch.
There were so many significant sports moments this year– Randy Johnson's 300th win, Nick Adenhart's death, Usain Bolt's new records, Michael Phelps' bong, Plaxico Burress' jail cell, the extra step in basketball, Eric Bruntlett's unassisted triple play, Lance Armstrong's comeback. Just because they aren't in the top 10 doesn't mean they aren't important.
Happy New Year, everyone.

I've been doing a lot of thinking.
I mean… I know a lot of people say that, but I really have. I watched a documentary & my gears have been going ever since.
I looked around my bedroom & ugh – I have a lot of stuff. Like…really. I feel kind of like a hoarder after watching that. Not really…let's not start making assumptions here – I'm just saying…
There's a lot of stuff sitting around, that I don't touch. I don't use. I don't give a flying you know what about. There are at least…at minimum… two boxes in my closet I could throw in the dumpster & not miss any of their contents; perhaps it may have some sentimental value?
What is that really though?
I'm not saying the sentimental things I own are not important to me. The reason responsible for it's importance is not the the belonging itself – It's important because of the feeling it provides me.
After more thought I started wondering, what feelings do my other possessions provide me?
That's a good question, isn't it? I've actually been trying to come up with a good answer. I suppose…there are possessions I own that make me feel good that I wouldn't be willing to part with; but that list is not long.
And in the end, it's still…just stuff.
All these thoughts spinning around my head have begun to wrap around this Simplicity idea.
"Simplicity is not the goal. It is the by-product of a good idea & modest expectations." –Paul Rand
I want to live simple. I want to educate myself to be more self-sufficient. I want to have a small house, and a big garden. I want to make a 10 year plan with the end result being debt free, in a tiny house.
Just to get any assumptions out of the way again, no…I do not want to be a hermit.
At this point…I'm intrigued.

Grizzlies build early lead and defeat Nets 101-77
Send a link to a friend
[January 26, 2013]
MEMPHIS, Tenn.
(AP) -- Marc Gasol had 20 points and nine rebounds and the Memphis Grizzlies built a 30-point lead in the second half en route to a 101-77 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Friday night.
Gasol was 10 of 15 from the field, all of his points coming in the first half, as Memphis, which had seven players in double figures, won for the fourth time in the past five games.
Mike Conley made six of seven shots, including 2 of 3 outside the arc, for 14 points, while Zach Randolph had 12 points and matched Gasol's nine rebounds.
Rudy Gay, Jerryd Bayless and Tony Wroten scored 11 apiece, while Chris Johnson, on a 10-day contract with Memphis, had 10 points.
Brook Lopez led the Nets with 18 points, while Deron Williams scored 12, adding six assists. Joe Johnson and Reggie Evans scored 11 points each, with Evans grabbing 10 rebounds.
Brooklyn's starting backcourt of Williams and Johnson both were 4 of 10 from the field, part of the Nets shooting 41 percent.
Memphis' dominance on the inside was set early and continued through the game. The Grizzlies held a 62-40 advantage in the paint and outrebounded Brooklyn 45-37.
Memphis had 15 offensive rebounds, leading to 27 second-chance points.
Memphis played one of its best halves of the season in carrying a 67-44 lead into the break. Gasol had 20 points, while Randolph had scored 12 in the first two quarters.
The 67 points were the most scored by the Grizzlies in a half this season.
Memphis connected on 60 percent of its first-half shots as it worked the offense through Gasol early, and the Grizzlies center was 10 of 15 from the field in the first two quarters.
The lead got to as many as 25 points before intermission.
[to top of second column]
Lopez had 15 for the Nets, connecting on 7 of 12 shots.
The Nets, who have had trouble handling the ball recently, committed only five turnovers in the first half, but shot 43 percent from the field, not near enough to keep pace with the Grizzlies.
Memphis extended the lead to 30 in the early stages of the second half, but the Nets had a 13-3 run to get their deficit to 79-59.
Memphis could not maintain its shooting touch from the first half, and turnovers were hurting as Memphis had four miscues in the period.
Memphis held an 85-67 lead after three quarters, despite being outscored 23-18 in the period.
The Nets actually could have cut into the lead at the start of the fourth as Memphis continued to commit turnovers, missed its first two shots and was scoreless through almost 3 minutes.
Problem was, Brooklyn also was scoreless during the span, missing its first six shots to start the fourth.
NOTES: Grizzlies F Jon Leuer, obtained earlier in the week from Cleveland, dressed for his first game with Memphis and played 2 minutes without scoring. ... The Grizzlies' previous high for a half this season was 62 in the second half at Sacramento on Jan. 7. ... The Nets are 12-3 since P.J. Carlesimo became interim coach, all three losses coming on the road, each by double digits. ... The Grizzlies are 13-0 when scoring 100 points, 5-1 when shooting 50 percent and 20-2 when outshooting their opponents. ... The Nets' four-game road trip ends Saturday night in Houston.

Novelist Nathan Englander on how ritual fuels his writing
Clip: 06/12/2019 | 2m 43s
Novelist Nathan Englander grew up in a highly observant Jewish family. As such, he was accustomed to discipline and observing ritual. When he left his religious community, Englander landed as far away from Orthodox Judaism as he could -- and then was surprised to find the lessons of his faith coming back to him. Englander shares his humble opinion on the role of ritual in creativity.

If you recently went into default, your mortgage holder may agree to a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In exchange for the deed, the lender would release you from the mortgage. With a hardship, you may even be free and clear within 90 days.
The Law Office of Clint W. Chase can negotiate an agreement that will minimize damage to your credit. A deed in lieu of foreclosure obligates you to give up claim to the property, but puts you back on the road to recovery.
The crux of any deed in lieu of foreclosure is the lender's willingness to sign. They must be willing to forgive the deficiency balance, or the unpaid balance of a mortgage after the sale. If the mortgage holder agrees, your benefits should include:
A deed in lieu of foreclosure may not be appropriate for all properties. To be approved, your home will need to pass a close inspection. Excessive liens on the property will also complicate the process. And with the forgiveness of any deficiency balance, tax implications are likely.
If a deed in lieu fits your case, we can create an accurate financial package, help you craft a hardship letter and negotiate with your mortgage holder for terms that will satisfy both parties.
Our law office provides legal services to victims of foreclosure as well as loan modification relief to clients throughout North Richland Hills. We can help!

Why are meetings that use tax dollars for public education planning closed to the taxpayers who are paying for the services and providing the children for the public education system?
Truth in American Education wondered why taxpayer Heather Crossin was unable to attend a recent meeting of the Council of Chief State School Officers held in Indiana. CCSSO is a private trade organization using federal and state funding (taxpayer money) to write/direct public education standards/assessments. Crossin not only could not attend the meetings, she could not discover the persons on the panel writing the Social Studies standards your teachers will be teaching and your children will be learning. From heartland.org:
Indiana resident Heather Crossin, whose children attend schools implementing the Core, attempted to attend an October 2012 CCSSO meeting in her Indianapolis hometown. Crossin called Michele Parks, a CCSSO meeting planner, to see if she could attend. No, Parks said. Crossin asked to see a list of people on the Social Studies standards writing team: "I was told that was not available for public release," Crossin said.How much money does CCSSO receive?
Ten weeks entailing dozens of emails and phone calls to at least six CCSSO spokesmen and personnel for access to the Indianapolis meeting or any others at last yielded an email to School Reform News from spokeswoman Kate Dando in December: "our meetings/sessions at our meetings are open to press really on a case by case basis," she wrote.
CCSSO receives tax money from more than state dues. It receives millions from the U.S. Department of Education.
"Approximately 13% and 33% of the Council's revenue and 25% and 34% of accounts receivable were provided by U.S. Department of Education grants or contracts for fiscal years 2011 and 2010, respectively," the nonprofit's 2010-2011 financial statement reads.
Applying the 2011 percentage to that year's revenues yields an estimated $3,450,930 in CCSSO revenue from the federal government, just in that year. In 2011, $558,000 came from the 2009 stimulus bill for CCSSO's involvement with one of two networks creating new tests to fit the standards.
In 2010, the U.S. DOE granted those two networks $330 million in stimulus funds. This action, more than any other, led conservative supporters of the Common Core to complain of federal interference in education, a constitutionally protected state function.
Maybe it's time to ask your state educational agency and legislators how much money is paid to CCSSO with taxpayer funding in your state. If you can't get a seat at the table, then maybe it's time to pull the state and district funding for this organization and allow the Federal government to fully fund this organization.
Oh, but that's right. It's "state led", right? If it's "state led" then why are there mandates set by the DOEd that the states must pay for via CCSSO costs and district costs for implementation? It's illegal for the Federal government to set Federally mandated educational direction for states but does it seem to you that's what has happened?
As Truth in American Education asks:
Some reporters have attended some CCSSO meetings, usually on background, she said, which means they cannot directly quote what they hear. Why?
Why? Exactly… what do they have to hide?

This is how the dining area looked on that first day we saw the house with our realtor.
As we conducted the house tour I quickly realized that we could make a wider opening to the right of the kitchen doorway since the breakfast nook was on the other side. Oh what difference it would make, I was sure of it! I loved the location of this particular house above all the others I had seen and I knew we could more or less transform the whole feel of the house with just that one simple (not so simple?;)) change. This is what it looked like after hubby removed the old carpet and tore that section of the wall down to create the new opening.
Former entrance patched up and flooring being installed.
We decided to make the spot where the former entrance was a big slate colored chalkboard and painted all the other walls a light cream color. We also painted the dining table and chairs in Creamy a Sherwin Williams color. To read more about how we painted them without sanding go here.
I still have to move the chandelier and hem the curtains but we are so glad to have most of it done! Here is the after (So sorry for the glare created by the windows. I love all the light that streams through them during the day but it is not good for picture taking!)
Before ( Looking in from the breakfast nook side, realtor picture )
Close up of opening
If you like the print on the breakfast nook wall learn how to make it here. You can also see more of our makeovers, Before and After's here and here.

Well, that was unexpected.
No, not really.
2K, in a big [sic] announcement for NBA 2K13, announced that the All-Star Weekend pre-order bonus that was available for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions of the game, will be available to download as DLC tomorrow. Or is it today? Anyway, the critically acclaimed content that includes such features as the Guitar Hero-esque Dunk Contest which will get your little cousin off your back while you enjoy a beer, or the 3-Point Shootout which nobody ever really enjoyed because it was a buggy bug-fest, will come with a price tag of $5.
Correction: Price tag is actually $4.99. Rejoice!
So, if you really can't find any better use for your $4.99...
...don't get the ASW DLC. Just grab a whole game out of the oldies bin, or keep looking out here for any great deals that will be a better use of your money.

Action/Adventure, Drama
Humphrey Bogart plays Harry Morgan, owner-operator of charter boat in wartime Martinique. Morgan's right-hand man is Eddie (Walter Brennan), a garrulous alky whose pet question to anyone and everyone is Ever get stung by a dead bee?
While in port, Harry is approached by Free French activist Gerard (Marcel Dalio), who wants to charter Harry's boat to smuggle in an important underground leader. Adopting his usual I-stick-my-neck-out-for-no-one stance, Morgan refuses. Later on, he starts up a dalliance with Marie Browning (screen newcomer Lauren Bacall), an attractive pickpocket.
In order to help Marie return to America, Harry agrees to Gerard's smuggling terms. He uses his boat to bring resistance fighter De Bursac (Walter Molnar) and De Bursac's wife Helene (Dolores Moran) into Martinique. The Vichy police, suspecting that something's amiss, hold Morgan's pal Eddie hostage, tormenting the poor rummy by denying him liquor.
Predictably, Morgan comes to Eddie's rescue and manages to escape Martinique, with the delectable Marie as cozy company.
In the hands of director Howard Hawks and screenwriters Jules Furthman and William Faulkner, the end result bore only a passing relation to the original story by Ernest Hemingway: instead, it was a virtual rehash (but a good one!) of the recently released Casablanca, replete with several of that film's cast members.
The film's enduring popularity is primarily -- if not solely -- due to the sexy chemistry between Bogart and Bacall, especially in the legendary You know how to whistle, don't you? scene.
The most salutary result of To Have & Have Not was the subsequent Bogart-Bacall marriage, which endured until his death in 1957. It's widely believed that Lauren Bacall's singing voice was dubbed in by a pre-puberty Andy Williams; this is not true.
For the record, a more faithful-to-the-source cinemadaptation of the Hemingway original was filmed in 1950 as The Breaking Point.

text: Offseason makeovers transform semifinalists - ESPN October 1, 200812:00AM PDT Previous Next Jeff DiVeronica, Special to ESPNsoccernet Mauro Biello joined the Montreal Impact when the club was an expansion team in 1993. He was only 20 years old then, a kid. Sixteen seasons and 300-plus matches later, he has literally grown up with the team. After a poor start to the season, Mauro Biello and the Impact are 10-6-4 since July. (Courtesy of the Montreal Impact/Other) So he knows a little bit about what soccer fans in his hometown expect. "You can play pretty soccer, but if you don't get the W, [fans] aren't happy," the 36-year-old midfielder says. "There's pressure to win here and when you come home from a road trip at 2-6-2, it's a big problem." That was the Impact's record after a 3-1 loss June 7 at Charleston, and that came after a loss and two draws in the first three matches at Stade Saputo, the club's new 13,000-seat stadium. Predictably, the natives were restless. So Montreal made a move that shocked the rest of the USL First Division, but came as little surprise to Biello, its captain and former MVP. Fifth-year coach Nick DeSantis stepped down to become the club's technical director and John Limniatis, like DeSantis a former Impact star, took the reins. Despite a hiccup -- consecutive home losses to Miami and Seattle in July -- Montreal went 10-6-4 under its new coach. It outlegged Vancouver and Toronto FC to earn Canada's spot in the CONCACAF Champions League and came from behind last weekend to edge No. 6 Seattle (4-3 aggregate) in the first round of the USL First Division playoffs. The third-seeded Impact (13-13-6) face No. 2 Vancouver (15-8-8) this weekend in the USL semifinals. In the other two-game, aggregate-goal series, No. 1 Puerto Rico (15-6-9) plays No. 4 Rochester (12-11-9). "I don't think Nick or any of the players thought this was a last-place team, but there was concern," Biello said about Montreal's sluggish start. He said it was DeSantis' decision to move to the front office, and Biello would know. DeSantis is his brother-in-law, a man who guided the Impact in his rookie year as coach in 2004 to its first league title since 1994. Similarly, Vancouver and Rochester made coaching changes last offseason that have worked out well. Teitur Thordarson, 56, replaced USL veteran Bob Lilley for the Whitecaps and Darren Tilley, 41, took over for Laurie Calloway with the Rhinos, whose tumultuous offseason included an ownership change. Vancouver won the USL crown in 2006, the franchise's first championship since 1979 in the North American Soccer League, and last year finished seventh before losing in the first round of the playoffs. But after four seasons, Lilley was out as coach. Vancouver general manager Bob Lenarduzzi said Lilley helped "re-establish some of the professionalism that we may have been lacking," but the Whitecaps needed someone who had more experience developing a productive youth academy system. Thordarson, a native of Iceland, had done just that coaching two clubs for 11 years in Norway, and the Whitecaps started a residency program for youth players in September 2007. "Obviously, we want to win but we also want to develop players," said Lenarduzzi, whose club started its "Vision 2011" initiative even before MLS announced it plans to expand that year. Vancouver's MLS bid is backed by two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash, who grew up in that area playing basketball and soccer with his brother, current Caps midfielder Martin Nash. Just finding players was Tilley's chief concern when he arrived in Rochester, where he was a key scorer on Rhinos teams that won the 1998 A-League and 1999 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup titles. But Rochester also almost didn't even field a team this season. The club's former ownership group lost control of the franchise in January after defaulting on more than $10 million in loans, and new owner Rob Clark didn't buy the Rhinos until mid-March. Six weeks before the regular season and just a week before training camp, Tilley was hired after Clark didn't renew Calloway's contract. "We played a boring style of soccer and needed to upgrade," said Clark, 35, a businessman from Utica, N.Y. "Plus, Darren is part of our tradition." It was Tilley's hat trick that powered a 3-1 win over Minnesota in the 1998 league title game. A native of England, he had interviewed for an assistant coaching position in Rochester before the 2007 season. Tilley and his family live just a few hours away near Toronto and Tilley had run a large youth club in Guelph, Ontario. At his first training session as coach, he had a mere dozen players, and three of them were goalies. "There were players here that sort of wanted to leave and we had to convince them to stay and convince others to come in," said Tilley, who had former English Premier League midfielder Steve Guppy, 39, on board as his player/assistant. "We had to get people to buy back into the club." The short training camp led to a 0-4-3 start that included just two goals. But Tilley kept preaching patience and a 5-0-2 run at midseason thrust Rochester into the middle of the pack and a four-match win streak sealed the Rhinos' 13th straight playoff berth. They're trying to win their first USL title since 2001. Here's a look at the two semifinal series, which will be played over two legs on Friday and Sunday: No. 1 Puerto Rico (15-6-9) vs. No. 4 Rochester (12-11-9) The Islanders have gone 2-0-1 against the Rhinos, including a 4-0 rout on Aug. 8 in Bayamon, and a 2-0 victory as visitors on Sept. 12 to stop Rochester's four-match win streak. But fatigue has to be a concern for coach Colin Clarke's side. Puerto Rico plays Municipal in Guatemala City on Wednesday night in the final game of the group stage of the CONCACAF Champions League, then must travel to upstate New York for Game 1 on Friday at 7:35 p.m. After another long flight on Saturday, Game 2 is Sunday at 6 p.m. in Puerto Rico. "If anything, I think they'll be tired in the third game in five days [Sunday]," Tilley said. The Islanders haven't lost since Aug. 1, and their 6-0-6 run has impressed Tilley, a USL Coach of the Year candidate with Clarke. "In this league you need players that are willing to run and I'm not just saying run for the sake of running but run with a purpose," he said. "That's why I believe Puerto Rico is so good." No. 2 Vancouver (15-8-8) vs. No. 3 Montreal (13-13-6) In its first-round matchup with No. 6 Seattle, the Impact needed to rally from down a goal after the first leg and then again in the final 30 minutes to survive. They'll also be without defender Adam Braz for the opener on Friday at 8 p.m. in Montreal after he received a red card against the Sounders. Game 2 is Sunday at 6:30 p.m. in Vancouver. Like Puerto Rico, weary legs could be an issue. Montreal played three matches last week, including one in the Champions League, and plays Olimpia on Wednesday in Honduras. Vancouver won twice by a 1-0 score during the regular season and the teams also tied 0-0, so expect this to be tight with plenty of intensity. Three Montreal players -- Joey Gjertsen, David Testo and Tony Donatelli -- were the heart of Vancouver's midfield on its 2006 championship team, and Whitecaps forward Charles Gbeke was the Impact's leading scorer a year ago before being traded for Donatelli at midseason. Gbeke had three goals and two assists in 14 matches with Vancouver, which is led in scoring by another former Montreal forward, Eduardo Sebrango (13 goals). The Caps built leads of 2-0 (after Game 1) and 5-1 with 35 minutes left in their first-round series against No. 7 Minnesota, but had to hang on to win 5-4 on aggregate. "You go 2-nil up and I think some teams are frightened with the lead," Lenarduzzi said. "You need to know how to play with the lead and having some veterans who have been there and know how to cope with it is key." Jeff DiVeronica covers soccer for the Rochester (N.Y.)

This online manual has been superceded by Street Illustrated.
The Right-of-Way Improvements Manual is an on-line resource developed by the City of Seattle to help property owners, developers, architects, landscape architects, and engineers involved with the design, permitting, and construction of improvements to Seattle's street right-of-way.
The Right-of-Way Improvements Manual considers and attempts to balance the access and mobility needs of all users of the street right-of-way: pedestrians, non-motorized vehicles, automobiles, transit, and freight. Procedures and design criteria were developed keeping in mind the critical balance among the following: safety, the preservation and maintenance of roadway infrastructure and utility services, and preserving our environment.
Knowing that all projects have site specific opportunities and constraints, the Right-of-Way Improvements Manual articulates the City's design criteria for street right-of-way improvements and describes a deviation process to achieve flexibility when practical.

Everyone agreed at the panel discussion I took part in yesterday in Washington that the fate of about two dozen journalists working for The New York Times and Bloomberg News in China is unresolved. No one knows what will happen by the ostensible deadline of midnight, December 31, 2013, for their expulsion. I say ostensible, because maybe the deadline can be extended under some arcane rule known only to China's immigration officials. For now, those journalists are dangling in what has come to be called "visa purgatory," a term attributed to me but which really came from one of those journalists in purgatory, that is to say, waiting in Beijing for his visa to be renewed, with whom I spoke recently.
Yesterday's discussion is available at the Congressional-Executive Commission on China's website. My prepared testimony is available here. I cut it short to allow time for discussion and to avoid repeating points that were well made by the NYT's Edward Wong, Time Magazine's Hannah Beech, and Sarah Cook, Freedom House's senior research analyst for East Asia.
An issue that came up, and one that CPJ is very concerned about, is how the United States will respond if the journalists are sent home. It was reassuring that Vice President Joseph Biden brought up the issue when he was in Beijing earlier this week. It seems to me that that sort of high-level engagement is the most effective way of dealing with the problem.
We strongly advise that Chinese journalists working in the U.S. NOT be treated in the same way their colleagues are being treated in Beijing. The Foreign Correspondents' Club of China agrees, but not everyone else does, including people for whom I have a high degree of respect. Paul Mooney, who hasn't been allowed back into China to take a new job for Reuters, told me in an interview last week he wants to see retaliation. With 18 years' experience in China, his opinion has to be taken into consideration. A Washington Post editorial soon after Biden raised the issue in Beijing -- China's strong-arm tactics toward U.S. media merit a response -- suggested that, "if China continues to exclude and threaten American journalists, the United States should inject a little more symmetry into its visa policy."
There is talk of other forms of retaliation, such as linking visa denials and blocked websites to trade violations under WTO regulations, or raising the ante to harassing diplomats and officials instead of making journalists' lives and careers more difficult. Elizabeth Lynch's three-part article in China Law and Policy, one part of which carries the sub-title, "Why the U.S. Government Must Act - Protecting an American Brand," looks at all aspects of the problem, including how the U.S. should respond. It's well reported and thought out.
Whether or not these American journalists stay in China, the problems of reporting from there remain. Yesterday's panelists agreed that things have become worse under President Xi JInping's government for all reporters, Chinese and foreigners. The way the current issue is resolved is important -- it can set the tone not just for journalism but for other forms of interaction between these two powerful countries. A front page piece in today's New York Times, U.S. Colleges Finding Ideals Tested Abroad, deals with the issues confronting U.S. universities that partner with Chinese schools. Both issues --- academic freedom and journalism--- represent more than just a clash of culture and ideals. There are fundamental rights issues at stake, and the dispute is coming to a head. Cool heads and wise analysis need to prevail.

Previous Kina Lillet rants:
Kina Quest 2: Necromancing the Stone
Ok, so taste off.
First, Modern Lillet Blanc. Light fresh wine. Strong Orange flavor. Little to no spice or bitter component.
Second, Cocchi Americano. Sweet heavy wine. Strong Orange Flavor. Strong cinnamon spice flavor and lingering quinine finish.
Third, Jean de Lillet 2004. Sweet heavy wine. Little to no orange flavor. Little to no bitter or spice component.
Dammit! I still like Cocchi Americano best!
There's no denying Jean de Lillet is a nice wine. It's just not very bitter. It strikes me more as an attempt to produce a relatively reasonable French Dessert Wine (say Sauterne) substitute from blending wines. I like it for that and will happily drink it. It is still cheaper than real Sauterne and nearly as tasty. But it has no real quinine component that I can detect.
Of course that won't stop me from trying to mix with it.
Barney Barnato Cocktail
1 Dash Angostura Bitters.
1 Dash Curacao. (1/3 barspoon Luxardo Triplum Dry Orange Liqueur)
1/2 Caperitif. (1 oz Jean de Lillet 2004)
1/2 Brandy. (1 oz Osocalis California Alembic Brandy)
Stir well and strain into cocktail glass. (Orange Peel.)
This is actually quite nice! Another dash of Angostura bitters and we'd be cooking with gas.
