A proposal that's off target?
Sheriff, others concerned over proposed gun laws
Michael Maresh/Cortez Journal file photo
Montezuma County Sheriff Dennis Spruell's views on gun control and proposed new laws relating to this matter mirror what other numerous law enforcement agencies across the country are saying.
President Barack Obama's comprehensive plan to address gun violence that was based on the recommendations from a task force led by Vice President Joe Biden, calls for legislation to ban some assault weapons as well as a variety of executive actions.
| Obama's plan has come under fire since the president unveiled it on Wednesday afternoon.
Spruell rarely minces words and made his stance on the issue very clear.
"I am a strong believer in the Second Amendment, and I believe people have a right to bear arms," Spruell said on Thursday. "It's a mental problem, a mental health issue. It | [

Have you ever gotten really mad about something, but kept your feelings bottled up inside? Maybe you weren't sure how to deal with your anger, or you didn't want to "rock the boat." Maybe you didn't feel like you had a right to be angry in the first place.
Keeping anger inside usually just makes it worse, and when people do it over and over again, for long periods of time, there can be very serious results. For example:
Hurting ourselves emotionally and physically
Sometimes, instead of pointing our anger at another person, we point it at ourselves. A guy who's mad all the time might convince himself that he's worthless, or a loser, or that he doesn't deserve to be happy. Of | course, telling himself all these things might just make the feelings of anger more intense. Sometimes these feelings are so painful that a person believes that hurting himself physically is the only way to get | [

December 20, 2011 began as a mellow holiday with the morning sun working away at the winter chill. By dusk the landscape of South Bay politics and its two largest school systems was forever changed.
In a lightening strike that combined military precision and lockdown secrecy, a small battalion of officers armed with guns and search warrants swept through the homes of two former Southwestern College administrators, five current and former Sweetwater Union High School District officials, and a construction company executive who worked with both districts.
Arraigned so far are Sweetwater trustees Arlie Ricasa and Pearl Quiñones, former trustee Greg Sandoval, former superintendent Jesus Gandara, and Seville Construction executive Henry Amigable. They face up to seven years in prison on multiple felony counts of bribery, perjury, filing a false instrument, influencing an elected official and other charges. | All pled not guilty. Facing possible charges are former Southwestern College administrators Nicholas Alioto and John Wilson. The home of Sweetwater trustee Bertha Lopez was also searched, but she has not been charged.
More people could be searched and arrested, according to San Diego County District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis.
At a press conference the week after the raids Dumanis decried the “culture of corruption” at Sweetwater and the “pay-for-play culture” at both districts.

I love my pedometer!
America On The Move has come to the hospital where I work, and all my friends
as well as myself are getting free tiny pedometers that attach to our waist bands
and measures every step we take.
Over the years, I’ve entered similar programs. One pedometer fell off in my pasture
land, only to show up a year later, rusted and disabled.
I remember getting another pedometer that measured ten steps for every one.
After that I just let go of the idea of ever having one again.
This pedometer is perfect! It does the job it was designed to do which is to count my
steps, one stride at a | time.
Since my choice and goal is to walk the Pacific Crest Trail, which surprisingly is only 10,000
steps a day from 11/16 to 12/28, I need to hustle to get those steps in, nevertheless.
10,000 steps measures five miles.

Mickey The Professor:
Utopia and ideology go together like a horse and carriage, love and marriage, etc. The point is one cannot separate Utopia from Ideology in any society.
Utopia is ideology, and ideology is Utopia. I joined this forum four months ago, hoping to discuss Ameritopia in depth with like-minded people. I hope and pray for Mitt Romney’s election, but Obama’s downfall would not mean the end of Utopianism in American politics. Utopianism is the mirage of a “perfect” society, the fulfillment of a dream-system, created by a presently admired “genius.” The Well Regulated State
by philosophers was the “great” idea of Plato.
Until philosophers are kings, or the kings and princes of this world have the spirit and power of philosophy, and political greatness and wisdom meet in one, and those commoner natures who pursue either to the exclusion of the other are compelled to stand aside, cities will never have rest from their evils, --no, nor the human race, as I believe, --and then only | will this our State have a possibility of life and behold the light of day. (Plato, The Republic V)
This idea is the pest
that is reproducing since the time of Plato. This living evil multiplied and took many forms. Throughout history the ever-growing and constantly mutating pest-colony of theorizers sucked the lifeblood of societies, and prevented their natural, free development.

Episode 3 does a phenomenal job of capturing the realities of military life during deployment. It gave me a different perspective as I watched what the other ladies go through.
I remember Mother's Day vividly. I cried when I received the 3 AM call that we had two additional KIAs (Killed In Action).
I knew someone's spouse/child/friend/mentor/family member/hero would receive notification of the casualty. I also knew that the ladies would not receive a call saying "Happy Mother's Day!" In light of the loss of life, that seems like such an insignificant detail. However, when we have casualties, only the Senior Spouses are aware of the deaths and/or injuries. I have to hold the information inside until the proper notification is made to the family. I always write a letter to the loved ones of those affected. I pray first because I want to make sure I use the right words. My husband writes a letter as well and we pray for them daily.
The spouses go through Predeployment training (this is optional). They are given the procedures used | for notification. However, it is easy to forget when you go days without hearing from your soldier. Sara handled it really well. We also have AFTB (Army Family Team Building) classes.

1995: Kailash Satyarthi, India

Advocating for quality public education and eliminating child labor practices
"Small children of six, seven years and older are forced to work fourteen hours a day, without breaks or a day of rest. If they cry for their parents, they are beaten severely, sometimes hanged upside down from the trees and even branded or burned with cigarettes."
A leading worldwide advocate for quality public education and the elimination of child labor practices, Kailash Satyarthi won the 1995 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his focus on India and Nepal. He is also a Speak Truth To Power Defender.
Satyarthi is India’s lodestar for the abolition of child labor. Since 1980, he has led the rescue of over 75,000 bonded and child slaves in India and developed a successful model for their education and rehabilitation. Kailash has emancipated thousands of children from bonded labor, a form of slavery where a desperate family typically borrows needed funds from a lender | (sums as little as $35) and is forced to hand over a child as surety until the funds can be repaid. But often the money can never be repaid—and the child is sold and resold to different masters. Bonded laborers work in the diamond, stonecutting, manufacturing, and other industries. They are especially prevalent in the carpet export business, where they hand-knot rugs for the U.S. and other markets.

Well, everyone has to have a first post - this is mine.
I live in the Seattle area and am mulling over getting back into boating. Most of my experience has been in small power craft, with some sail experience in years past. For many years my family actually owned a nice little 18' lapstrake daysailer sloop built in 1936 by local builder Anchor Jensen, and I did a fair amount of sailing in that when I was young - but we let the boat get away to a new owner before I got turned on to wooden boats again.
What I am interested in is a wooden daysailer that could live a good portion of the year on a trailer, and be fairly easy to launch and load back on the trailer. I would probably have no more than 1-2 passengers at a time, and usually be solo. My sailing skills are rusty and were never that fabulous to start with, so something simple as far as rigging and handling would be good.
My thought would be to look for a used boat that may need some attention. I've built a Whisp (way back in 1990 | ), a stitch & tape kayak, and - more recently - an airplane (made of something called aluminum, and a 9.5 year project...), so I have pretty decent shop experience and collection of tools, and don't have any worries as far as getting in and fixing things. I've also been a WB reader off and on since 1990.
So, my question: are there designs local to the Puget Sound area that would fit this need, and if so what would people recommend? And what sources for searching and finding such a vessel can people recommend? It would | [

California Sued by Conservation Groups Over Fracking Risk
California was sued by the Sierra Club and other groups seeking to block approval of new oil and gas wells because regulators have allegedly failed to consider or evaluate the risks of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking.
The state’s division of oil, gas and geothermal resources regularly approves permits for wells without any environmental analysis about the health effects of fracking by excluding such projects from review, lawyers for the groups said in a complaint filed today in state court in Oakland, California.
The division doesn’t currently track, monitor or have any specific standards for hydraulic fracturing of oil and gas wells, and doesn’t know where or how often fracking occurs in California, according to the complaint.
The lawsuit seeks a court order declaring the practice violates state environmental laws and an order prohibiting approval of new wells until the state evaluates the risks of fracking.
California’s conservation department, named as a defendant, hasn’t been served with a lawsuit, said Ed Wilson, an agency spokesman, in an e-mail. The department doesn | ’t comment on pending litigation, he said.
In fracking, millions of gallons of chemically treated water and sand are forced underground to break shale rock and free trapped gas. The process has been blamed for groundwater contamination.

Jumping out of airplanes is a thrill at any age
By Lindsay Reed
Several seniors celebrated life with a tandem skydive jump at Freefall Express Skydiving in Mt. Vernon on June 17.
"At my age, I still want to have thrills in life, and as long as I can do this, I'm still going to have those thrills," said Skippy Fine, of Monett. "You're never to old to have fun."
Fine, who is now 81, took her first skydive jump when she was 75 years old. Since then she has jumped four times.
"I always loved flying in airplanes," said Fine. "I would have liked to have been a pilot, but I was a young mother who had to work."
Fine spent a large part of her life as a single mother raising three children in Chicago. She supported her family by working in some of the finest restaurants in the Illinois area.
"When I was supporting my children, I | put everything else on hold," said Fine. "I always wanted to try skydiving. The adventure always appealed to me."
Fine took her first jump at 11,000 feet in Arizona four years ago. On June 16, she took her third jump at 14,000 feet in Mt. Vernon. This is the highest jump she has made so far.

To keep from getting blown to bits in Afghanistan, one key is knowing how to read the locals.
This advice comes from Durangoan Keith Sylvain, who has been toiling in the war zones of Iraq and Afghanistan for most of the last 10 years.

“OK, no kids (around). This is bad,” he began with the laugh of someone who’s apparently been in the situation. “Where are the animals? No animals. OK, guys, keep an eye on the road.
“You get a little sixth sense about it.... If your eyes aren’t open you won’t see it coming.”

Great autism news in New Brunswick as the UNB-CEL Autism Intervention Training Program is being made available for the public. (Applications available online.) The college program has previously been recommended by US autism experts Dr. Eric Larsson and Dr. David Celiberti. Dr. Celiberti in particular is very familiar with the program and had recommended the New Brunswick autism service delivery model which was based on the program for consideration by other Canadian provinces. Unfortunately for New Brunswick's autistic children, students and adults the successful UNB-CEL Autism Training Program, | first utilized by the Premier Bernard Lord's Conservative government, and then by Liberal Premier Shawn Graham's government, has been abandoned by the David Alward government and its non evidence based, philosophically driven partners at the NBACL.
The UNB-CEL Autism Intervention Training program was born in response to requests for tenders for autism training put out by the Lord government. That request resulted from intense and effective advocacy by many New Brunswick parents of autistic children led by the Autism Society of New Brunswick. The actual program itself was first conceived at a meeting of a committee which was meeting to establish an autism centre | [

If you have been playing the SEO game for long you know that using directories are one way to build links. How effective this is to your SEO campaign is debatable nowadays. But I’m not talking about submitting your site to other directories, I’m recommending you start your own directory. I can practically hear the moans and protests through the Internet now. Let me explain my modest proposal. Here are some ideas for creating your own wonderful super awesome resource directory.
Build the directory on your current site. Do not start a site just for the sake of being a directory. There are thousands of unsuccessful directories and we shouldn’t be adding to the overcrowded market. You can see an example of a resource (vendor) directory we have created for F. Curtis Barry & Company. The directory was created as a subsection of their business site so it resides in their main domain.
Be selective. This directory isn’t supposed to be all-inclusive, it is being created to be a resource for your customers. It should have perceived value so only include vendors that are recommended by you or your company.
Be opinionated. This is YOUR directory, right? Well, say what you want but back up what you | say. Give your opinion. Why was this vendor or company selected for placement in this directory? Let your audience know.
Be verbose. Make the directory worthy of being read. After all, you aren’t including many companies. Remember, it is a privilege and only the best get included so you won’t have | [

A movie review by Balaji Balasubramaniam
|Cast:||Sivakarthikeyan, Aathmiya, Ilavarasu, Singampuli, Soori, Chaams|
Kannan(Sivakarthikeyan) loves Revathi(Aathmiya) who lives across the street from his house. Though Revathi hasn't explicitly expressed any romantic feelings towards him, Kannan makes up stories to his friends about their romance. So when Revathi's marriage is fixed with a man from a neighboring village, Kannan's friends decide to kidnap her and unite the lovers.
Aathmiya's character is written rather poorly. She flirts with Siva quite a bit but then quietly gives her assent to marrying someone else. Her behavior doesn't improve after she is kidnapped either as she tells Siva that she never expressed her love for him and even calls home. The conflict between her love for Siva and her affection towards her family never comes through and so it looks like she was just leading Siva on. Siva, for his part, comes across as being quite cowardly and is shown to be a | liar. With neither of the leads being likeable, the love story is doomed from the start.
Aathmiya's family is initially shown to be a violent bunch with the menfolk itching for a fight and the womenfolk egging them on. But as they look for | [

There are many reasons we fall into debt: Medical issues, school tuition, starting a business, buying a home. In some situations you don’t have much of choice, such as a medical procedure. In other cases the debt’s for a good reason. If you’re paying for college, that’s an investment in your future, and in the long run you’ll make up for it. Ray Jamali is a finance enthusiast and creator of FinancialHighway.com, a blog that discusses money-saving ideas and long-term planning strategies to help you grow your wealth. He says unfortunately, there are also some bad ways many of us accumulate debt. | For example.
- Financing the latest gadgets. If you can’t afford the newest Apple Macbook or some other high-end device, a lot of electronic stores will finance them for you! Great idea, right? Hardly. Jamali says it’ll take about five years to pay off something that’ll be obsolete in one – and you’ll end up paying three times what it was worth! That’s not smart debt.

Freida Pinto: 'Immortals' is a feast for all five senses (Video)
Freida Pinto has been calling her new action film "Immortals" a "feast for all five senses" and got rather graphic about what she meant at the film's Hollywood premiere.
"With every scene, with the brutality or the fact that some scenes are very, very delicate, you can almost taste it in your mouth," Pinto told OnTheRedCarpet.com and other news outlets at the "Immortals" premiere on November 7. (Warning: Spoiler Alert)
"There are some very brutal scenes& there's a scene where he cuts his tongue off, the monk, and I could actually feel horrible things in my mouth, thinking 'Oh my God, that could be my tongue!'" Pinto continued. "So I guess it's that and the sound and the music and visually, it's so appealing, everything | . There were times when I actually got goose bumps because it was just so big. So yeah, that's what I meant by 'a feast for all five senses.' People are going to steal my logline."
The action film follows Greek peasant-turned-warrior Theseus (Henry Cavill), who was secretly chosen by Zeus to save his people from King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) and his army of Titans. Theseus gathers a band of outsiders to aid him, including visionary priestess Phaedra (Pinto) and cunning | [

BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — A prominent Colombian guerrilla will remain in prison in the United States, a U.S. official said Monday, dismissing rebel appeals for the man to be freed for peace talks in Cuba.
The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, recently appealed to President Barack Obama to release Ricardo Palmera, who is better known by the nom de guerre Simon Trinidad.
Ricardo Zuniga, a special assistant to Obama and the lead official for Latin America policy on the National Security Council, noted that the U.S. government isn't part of the negotiations in Havana.
"This person is in prison for very serious crimes and is going to remain imprisoned," Zuniga told The Associated Press in a phone interview. He first made similar remarks to the Colombian newspaper El Tiempo an interview published Monday.
Zuniga declined to discuss whether the U.S. government would be willing to consider changing its posture under certain circumstances.
The FARC had said the rebel's presence at the talks with the Colombian government in Havana would help the negotiations.
The rebels named Palmera to their | negotiating team in September, even though the 62-year-old is held at a maximum-security prison in Florence, Colorado. The rebels recently brought a life-sized cardboard cutout of him to a negotiating session.
But American officials have previously said it's unlikely any FARC rebels imprisoned in the US would be freed.

It's a big year for Boyz II Men. The guys who brought Motown Philly back again are all over the place in 2011. They appeared in Justin Bieber's "Never Say Never" flick earlier this year, then they popped up in sample-form on Beyonce's super fantastic 4 track "Countdown" and now the guys made the cut for Bieber's forthcoming holiday album.
In addition to working with some of the biggest artists of the new millennium, the guys will also be back with their own album next month, the aptly titled Twenty, celebrating their long and prosperous run in the industry. It's out October 25.

Originally released in 1992, the tear-jerking break-up track was actually released two years before Bieber came into the world. That means that sobbing teens everywhere had been crying for quite some time before the teen star was introduced to it.

Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 Review
Lenovo, a name long synonymous with business and enterprise end personal computers, but in the world of Android tablets, they're regarded as a newcomer – not surprisingly. Just like the other PC vendors making the plunge into the competitive Android tablet market, Lenovo is getting its feet wet with the newly available Lenovo IdeaTab A2109. Instead of being forgotten amongst the heap of other comparable options out there, this tablet is blessed with some contemporary hardware under the hood, combined with a tempting $299.99 price point. However, will it be enough to steer consumers into its direction?
The package contains:
- microUSB cable
- Wall charger
- Start Guide
- Safety and Warranty Information
Let's be honest here people. On one side, the Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 employs some premium choice materials that we take comfort in with its construction – like its brushed metallic casing. However, for a 9-incher tablet, it looks chubby in size (0.5" thick) and feels bloated with its weight (14.1 oz). Furthermore, its sharp edges don't necessarily make for the best grip for holding the tablet. All in all, it's a valiant effort on Lenovo's part, | but it simply lacks the substance and chic design cues to enthrall us.
Trying to press the power button is a test in itself, mainly because it's so flat in feel and lacks any comforting response when pressed. Luckily, the volume control is slightly more distinct, but it's still lacking in response. Looking around the tablet's bezel, it also houses the 3.5mm headset jack, microphone, orientation lock | [

Given Bob McKenzie’s multi-tweet address on his pessimism regarding the two sides finding a resolution to the lockout in time to save the season, and the fact that last time there was a lockout, the result was a 30 team draft lottery, if the season is lost, there is a chance the Oilers would once again have a shot at drafting #1 overall.

The sculptural work of Michael Sailstorfer (*1979) deals with the history of certain objects, giving them a new form and function. He builds a tree house (“D-IBRB,” 2002) out of two old gliders; a solid house (“Heimatlied,” 2002) out of old trailer homes. Sailstorfer converts material and objects, making new sculptures out of their parts. One could characterize his artistic practice as a constructive interpretation of discarded things, which transforms old into new while also incorporating the process of transformation into the work. Leaving | open the nostalgic potential of the past, he creates sculptures that perhaps look like the constructions of youthful dreams. The various developmental stages of the material are visible at all times. They form layers of narrative upon the built object, which combines form and function into a new entity.

Consumers around the globe are increasingly hungry for access to information and communication, especially in third world countries with rapidly emerging economies. Innovation in (mobile) technology is creating massive shifts, supporting the emergence of these markets.
According to an article by Andrew Meldrum for the guardian.co.uk, Africa is currently the world’s fastest growing mobile phone market. Over the past five years the number of mobile phone subscribers on the continent has increased at an annual rate of 65% – twice the global average.
“For you it was incremental—here it’s revolutionary,” says Isaac Nsereko of MTN, Africa’s biggest operator. Before mobile phones, vast areas in Africa were communication voids. And rather than just providing convenient, portable improvements to existing fixed-line phones, as in the developed world, mobile technology is providing access to a whole different way of life in these areas.
For the very first time many are receiving access to communication and information. And in places with bad roads, unreliable postal services and unreliable landlines, mobile phones can substitute for travel, allow quicker and easier access to information and provide simple access to computing.
According to an article in The Economist, a recent study observed that by, “adding an extra ten | mobile phones per 100 people in a typical developing country boosts growth in GDP per person by 0.8 percentage points”.

Cost of Solar Energy In today’s highly technological world, many people are turning to more affordable sources of energy. This includes renewable energy such as water, wind, and solar powered sources. If you want to receive the same great energy services at half the cost, consider investing in solar energy.
Solar energy is heat and light energy harnessed from the sun. But what are the costs of solar energy and how much can it actually save you? When considering any alternative energy project, you should think about the cost of the materials and initial installation as well as the energy savings.
As far as materials are concerned, you will probably be paying about $6-$9 per watt. The size of your house doesn’t matter, but you should examine your current electric bill to decide how much energy you use each month. You also need to see how much direct sunlight your home receives.
If you do decide to install solar panels, you will be saving yourself thousands of dollars in the long run. You can even save | up to 80% on your initial overall cost. Tax rebates and other incentives often cover the cost of solar energy panel installation. You will also be adding value to your home by installing solar panels. If you plan on living in your house for more than five to eight years, your investment will start paying you.
By installing your solar panels, you will also be able to guard yourself against increased energy costs in the upcoming years. You will | [

CENTRAL NEW YORK – There’s good news for businesses across Central New York. According to the CenterState CEO Economic Forecast, there are many reasons to stay optimistic about the local economy.
The report was presented at a breakfast at the Oncenter in Syracuse Thursday morning.
CenterState expects economic growth this year in part because of the $137 million Central New York got from the state's regional economic development councils. The organization also anticipates significant growth in education and health care.
CenterState officials say even though we're slowly coming out of the recession, there's still a lot of work to do on a local and national level.

Emnity And Ennui: Va. Governor's Race Inspiring Both
Originally published on Sun January 13, 2013 5:15 pm
Most Virginians say they approve of the job that first-term GOP Gov. Bob McDonnell is doing, suggesting he'd have a good shot at re-election when his term expires at the end of this year.
But it's one-and-out for governors in Virginia, the only state that doesn't allow its chief executive to serve consecutive terms.
That's left the state with a governor's race that has many voters shaking their heads and asking, "How did we end up with these two?"
"These two" are Democrat Terry McAuliffe, 55, a Clinton-era fundraiser extraordinaire and former Democratic National Committee chairman | who got walloped in a party primary for governor in 2009; and Republican Ken Cuccinelli, 44, the state attorney general whose conservatism far outflanks most on the right of the political spectrum.

A teenager who was mistakenly deported to Colombia is back home with her Dallas family.
A Dallas teenager who was deported to Colombia in May after claiming to be an illegal immigrant was reunited with her mother in North Texas on Friday and at the center of an international mystery over how a minor could be sent to a country she is not a citizen of.
Her family has questioned why U.S. officials didn't do more to verify the 15-year-old's identity and say she is not fluent in Spanish and had no ties to Colombia.
While many facts of the case involving Jakadrien Lorece Turner remain unclear, U.S. and Colombian officials have pointed fingers over who is responsible.
Jakadrien arrived in Texas on Friday evening and was reunited with her family. She was flanked by her mother, grandmother and law enforcement when she emerged from the international gate Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
"She's happy to be home," the family's attorney, Ray Jackson, said, adding that the family would not be issuing any statements Friday night.
He said the family was "ecstatic" to have Jakadrien back in Texas and they plan to "do what we can | to make sure she gets back to a normal life."

As pleased as I am to know that Marcus Icke has read at least two of my articles, I must say that I am disappointed in the strength of his argument against them.
Feel free to read his comments in this apparent rebuttal to my comment that if he can place airplanes in space, he should be able to look straight down on them using the very same software.
In his article, he claims that I have miscalculated an angle by 10 degrees. His claim is based on using Flight Simulator 2004 software to recreate a CBS frame. Using the placement of the Empire State Building relative to the twin towers, he claims that the actual angle of the camera relative to the face of WTC2 is 2 degrees, as opposed to the 11.59 degrees that I had calculated.
Although I agree that the “blooming” he refers to is a potential source of error in my calculation, at an | average of 1.6 or so degrees per miscounted pixel, there is no way that “blooming” can account for a 6 pixel miscount.
There are multiple problems with Marcus’ method of arriving at his angle calculation, but before I go there, I’d like to openly ruminate regarding the intent behind his rebuttal.
Although cleverly worded and very accurately mimicking my presentation format, even down to the font selection – there seems to be malicious intent behind the article. If | [

China's ultra-popular, Twitter-like service moves too fast for censors or propagandists to keep up, but it's changing more than just the spread of information.
When the message appeared on the Weibo account of Xinhua, China's official news agency on April 10, announcing charges against the family of high-profile party leader Bo Xilai, it ended many days of public speculation on China's largest political crisis in decades. But it also left Chinese web users even more deeply confused about the distinction between political truth and rumor, one that has always been hazy in China but is now blurred even more by social media.
Chinese web users began speculating, following Bo's firing as Chongqing party chief in March, about the Bo family's possible role in the mysterious death of Neil Heywood, a British businessman with close ties to the family. China's Internet censors muzzled the online discussions. The government spokesmen stonewalled inquiries from the British government and told curious Chinese that Heywood died of "excessive drinking," admon | ishing them "not to spread groundless rumor."
On the morning of April 11, Chinese web users woke up to find that the reports that had previously filled their Weibo pages -- in coded words adopted to evade the censors -- now featured the front page of every official newspaper. The rumor, repressed by | [

Tigers Roar in Second Half En Route to 3-0 Win
Oct. 10, 2010
STOCKTON, CA - Pacific's Kim Hargrave had a goal and an assist and the host Tigers scored three times in the second half on Sunday afternoon, lifting them to a 3-0 victory over visiting Cal State Fullerton in a Big West Conference women's soccer match-up at Stagg Stadium.
The Titans, who opened league play with a 3-2 win over UC Davis on Friday, fell to 4-9 overall and evened their conference mark at 1-1. Pacific improved to 4-6-3 overall and earned its first conference with of the season, moving to 1-2 overall.
After an even first half, the Tigers were | virtually unstoppable in the second period, outshooting the Titans by a 13-1 count and holding a 5-0 advantage in corners in the half.
Hargrave got Pacific on the board in the 53rd minute with her second goal of the season, heading a pass from teammate Brittni Beeman over the Fullerton keeper for the 1-0 lead. Hargrave then assisted on the Tigers second goal of the match in the 72nd minute as Kristina Wavomba netted her first score of the year from 12 yards out to make it 2 | [

Why We Eat Organic Foods (in Spite of Today's Headlines)
Hey, is this good news, or what?
Give up organic heirloom tomatoes at $4.99/pound!
Stop paying $5.99 up for a gallon of organic milk!
Buy cheaper ground beef than the organic grass-fed stuff at $7.99+/pound!
Slow down, folks. Read the articles, not just the attention-grabbing headlines. What the scientists discovered was basically this: Take two identical, ripe, juicy, fresh peaches, one of which was grown organically and one of which was not. Analyze the nutritional profile of each. You will find that one peach has just about the same vitamins as the other.
OK, and I'll bet they're pretty much the same color, too. And they probably weigh the same. And if dropped from a tall building, they most likely will go splat at about the same time.
Only thing is, that's | not the point. Most of us don't buy peaches because of their airborne velocity or their weight or their color — or their vitamin content.

Jury seated for Enron Internet trial
MARY FLOOD, Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle | April 18, 2005
The jury seated today to decide the fate of five men from Enron's defunct Internet division includes a man who says he feels there's a stigma about Enron but he can serve as a fair juror anyway.
The panel of 12 jurors and 4 alternates, with only three women on it, is scheduled to hear opening statements Tuesday morning. They will likely spend about two months trying to sort out whether the ex-Enron executives on trial indulged in lies or mere hype in an attempt to make their Internet business look good.
The five men from the company's once-promising Enron Broadband Systems are accused of 170 counts of conspiracy, wire and securities fraud, insider trading and money laundering.
U.S. District Judge Vanessa Gilmore spent the day sorting through a panel of 95 potential jurors, exploring their biases about | Enron, their work situations, illnesses and their vacation plans.
More than 40 people were struck from the panel, many because they said they have made up their minds about Enron and could not be fair.
One man who is sitting on the jury said: "The whole Enron thing has a stigma in my mind but that in no way would cloud my judgement."
Others told the judge that they would be at least a little, if not a | [

Buffalo pounds Rochester, 12-3
The Bisons posted season-highs in runs and hits as they pounded the rival Red Wings, 12-3, on Thursday afternoon from Rochester. Josh Thole drove in four, Jesus Feliciano scored four times and the team combined for 15 total base hits.
The bulk of the damage for Buffalo came in a five-run sixth inning as the team batted around for the first time in 2010. Nursing a 3-2 advantage, the Herd loaded the bases when Mike Cervenak doubled, Feliciano singled and Andy walked. Thole then | drove a full count pitch from Rochester reliever Jose Lugo into the left-centerfield gap for a bases-clearing double.
The two-out rally continued when Fernando Martinez doubled to right-center for the 7-2 lead. Two batters later, Chris Carter collected his third hit of the game with an RBI-single through the left side. Carter went 6-8 with three doubles and a home run in the two-game series at Frontier Field.

Aaron Schmidt’s new column at Library Journal offers a twist on convening the “Web Site Redesign Committee” I chaired for 3 years at SJCPL:
Website redesign projects take a long time, often more than a year. During that time, a lack of visible progress can lower staff morale and leave users with a stagnant, unimproved site for months at a time. Likewise, maintaining a | current site and building a new one divides efforts. By contrast, small iterative changes can boost staff morale with frequent, demonstrable (if small) victories. Think of it this way: if you make a dozen modest changes—one a month for a year—you could easily end up with a site that’s better by leaps and bounds than what you’d be able to design from scratch in the same interval.
Now think of it from the user’s perspective: imagine getting in your car and finding the steering wheel has been moved to the back seat and over to the opposite side of the car. Moreover, the accelerator and brake pedals have been reversed | [
