Napolitano Secures Over $37 Billion for CA Highways & Transit, Key Local Priorities, and Critical Improvements to Nation’s Water Infrastructure in House Infrastructure Package
(WASHINGTON, DC) Today, Rep. Grace F. Napolitano (D-El Monte) voted for H.R. 2, the Moving Forward Act, a more than $1.5 trillion investment to rebuild American infrastructure from roads, bridges, and transit systems, to schools, housing, and broadband access.
“The Moving Forward Act is a comprehensive infrastructure plan for the 21st Century, which will create millions of good-paying jobs and get our economy moving again,” Napolitano said. “The surface transportation section of this bill, which I helped write, will make a significant impact in improving the lives of San Gabriel Valley residents and all Americans by reducing commute times, increasing safety on our highways, bridges, buses and rails, and safeguarding our environment. I am especially thrilled that my Water Recycling Investment and Improvement Act is included in the final legislation, which will give local water agencies the funding needed to increase capacities for existing recycling plants and to create new projects to boost water supplies. I would like to thank the cities, transportation agencies, and water agencies in my district and state which were integral in informing Congress of their concerns and ideas for infrastructure policy. This valued input will help bring federal dollars to our region to put people back to work, while ensuring our long-term infrastructure needs are addressed. It is time to build the infrastructure of the future.”
Napolitano, the highest-ranking California member on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, secured over $37 billion for California in the surface transportation portion of the bill—INVEST in America Act. Since the Committee adopted that bill, Napolitano was able to secure the following additional surface-related provisions:
- Requires the Department of Transportation when working with local agencies on transit-oriented development projects to address homelessness housing assistance.
- The expansion of the Gold Line in Napolitano’s district has created important housing opportunities for residents that could be used to also address the homelessness crisis we are facing in the San Gabriel Valley.
- Creates a Truck Driver Leasing Task Force that is based on a bill Napolitano introduced last Congress, H.R. 4144, the Port Truck Driver Bill of Rights.
- This will focus federal regulators and policy experts on creating solutions to controversial leasing arrangements in the trucking industry that are especially found at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. These illegal tactics by some trucking companies underpay truck drivers by forcing them into leasing arrangements that require them to work long hours without abiding by minimum wage laws, let alone reasonable pay and benefits. This task force will address these unfair practices against workers.
- Allows electric vehicle charging stations at park-and-ride lots and rest areas located along the highway. Federal law currently prohibits electric vehicle charging stations at these locations and Napolitano’s provision fixes this.
- This is a huge problem at 20 park-and-ride lots in LA County, including the El Monte Bus Station in Napolitano’s district, which is the largest bus transit station on the West coast.
- Stops the Trump Administration from threatening to withhold $250 million annually in FAA grants to California airports and divert $70 million in CA State and Local general sales taxes away from their intended purpose. This provision was included in Napolitano’s amendment on the House floor and is the same as her bill, H.R. 2939, the State and Local General Sales Tax Protection Act.
- Restores 29 years of FAA policy that the restriction on aviation fuel sales taxes for aviation purposes is based on excise taxes and not general sales taxes, allowing the State of California, California Counties and California cities to continue to spend their general sales tax revenues on their voter approved purpose.
- Protects the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) loan program from being raided by other programs. TIFIA is incredibly important to Southern California as we are able to use this low-cost financing with our Measure R, Measure M, and SB1 money to speed up transportation projects so they are completed now instead of 30 years from now.
- This means Southern California residents, businesses, and commuters get the benefits of these highway, transit and rail improvements today instead of waiting for future funding cycles, and it also saves money in the long run by shortening the time value of the costs of construction.
As Chairwoman of the Transportation Committee’s Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee and a senior member of the House Natural Resources Committee, Napolitano also successfully included in H.R. 2 the following provisions to deliver federal assistance to clean water projects, water supply projects, and environmental improvements and recreation:
- Includes Napolitano's bill, H.R. 1162, the Water Recycling Investment and Improvement Act, to increase from $50 million to $500 million the authorization for the Bureau of Reclamation’s Title XVI program, which is the most successful and primary water recycling program of the federal government. Title XVI provides cost-shared funding for water recycling projects that reclaim and reuse municipal, industrial, domestic or agricultural wastewater, and, naturally impaired ground or surface waters across the 17 Western states.
- Since 1992, Congress has authorized 53 Title XVI recycling projects, producing more than 400,000 acre-feet of drought-resistant water supply. Unfortunately, due to the lack of funding, there is a backlog of almost $1 billion dollars for congressionally authorized Title XVI projects – demonstrating a clear need to continue and expand funding.
- Reauthorizes the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (SRF) at $40 billion over 5 years to construct water treatment systems that address today’s water challenges to clean up our rivers, streams, lakes and ocean for improved drinking water, recreation, and the environment.
- Authorizes $5.6 billion for clean water act grant programs (including $1 billion for treatment of PFAS chemicals and other emerging contaminants) that can provide direct assistance to local water agencies.
- Authorizes $3.4 billion to reauthorize various regional water programs over the next five years that the Subcommittee on Water Resources and Environment recently passed, which include: the National Estuary Program, the San Francisco Bay Program, the Puget Sound Program, the Great Lakes Program, the Chesapeake Bay Program, and the Lake Pontchartrain Program.
- Appropriates $10 billion to the Army Corps of Engineers for construction projects for flood control, navigation, and environmental restoration.
- This funding could be used to perform the Whittier Narrows Dam renovation project that will protect Southern California from major flooding events.
- Appropriates $5 billion for operation and maintenance of Army Corps projects which can be used on the Los Angeles, San Gabriel, and Rio Hondo rivers to improve the river landscape and maintain proper flood control.
H.R. 2 passed the House by a vote of 233 to 188 and now goes to the Senate for consideration.

Companies committed to ending poverty
How much responsibility falls on companies to address poverty? On the third day of the Cerrito Forum, business leaders shared their experiences, the efforts they promote with employees and the community for the implementation of initiatives that contribute to the elimination of poverty.
Raúl Gauto from Forestal Sylvis; Liz Grütter from Casa Grütter and Fernando Milanes from the Unión Social de Empresarios de México (USEM, for its acronym in Spanish), were part of the space for companies called “Why companies should deal with poverty”, moderated by journalist Juan Cáceres Troche.
“I strongly believe that sustainable development is essential to end poverty,” said Gauto, when mentioning that there are no successful companies in failed societies and that poverty sometimes puts us in conflict; therefore, companies have to help in this situation. He said that companies have to work to end poverty and that employees who find better situations for a more dignified life will be happier employees.
He pointed out that in the area where he conducts his business, they apply the Poverty Stoplight and that mechanism has helped the residents themselves to identify their needs. “Many times, people have to struggle to survive; so, we either help them to have a source of income to make some money or they dedicate themselves to crime,” he added.
“Success must be collaborative. We have to generate shared value, because the more we take care of our collaborators, the more eager they will join in collaborating with the company, ”said Grutter, adding that the social actions and collaborative movements that increased during the pandemic, must be imitated by companies.
Grutter stressed that women should not wait to be invited to occupy important positions and that now is more frequent for women to take up spaces of great influence in companies, which allows to promote empowerment and help the self-esteem of women, their collaborators, who pay back in the work they do.
“Why should companies deal with poverty? Because they can,” Milanes replied. He assured that there is no other institution that generates wealth and can distribute it in a sustainable way, as companies can. He mentioned that these constitute the space where lives can be transformed.
He added that the entrepreneurial calling, with a purpose, can ally itself with interest groups and generate impacts. “It is a big challenge, but it is important to project common agendas, with families without poverty. This should be a permanent dialogue, being in spaces with a forward-looking approach, imagining a future with our society and reviewing what we can do to change,” he added.
The panelists pointed out that the head of the company must promote training, not only in pragmatic things, but also in spiritual matters, because motivation is essential to generate significant impacts and collective progress. In addition, they indicated that solidarity should be a normal thing.

Ahead of an exciting looking weekend of Premier League action, we guide you through all the top-flight fixtures...
BLACKBURN v WEST BROM, Saturday 3pm
Blackburn were the victims of a late fightback from Sunderland last weekend as their woeful league form continued. West Brom were also beaten after going a goal up as Wigan claimed only their third win of the season. Despite the public backing from the club’s owners, pressure is undeniably mounting on Blackburn manager Steve Kean and he needs every win he can get. West Brom are also in need of a win as they have only one in their last six games and will not want to slide any further down the table.
Recent results: Blackburn 2-0 West Brom (23/01/2011, PL), West Brom 1-3 Blackburn (28/12/2010, PL)
One to watch: Blackburn’s Paul Robinson has the lowest saves-to-shots ratio of any regular Premier League goalkeeper this season and only bottom place Bolton have conceded more goals than his side. While it is unfair to place the blame squarely on the former England keeper, he has been inconsistent this season and his team need him to start putting in some good performances if they are going to avoid relegation.
Did you know?: West Brom have never won a Premier League away match in the month of December (D2, L12).
Fantasy Pick: Yakubu, 63 (Blackburn), Shane Long, 52 (West Brom) *
Tweet of the week: ‘Flattered by all the concern,I'm fine,just a cut, absolutely deflated by the result most of all..we'll bounce back, thanks for the support!!’, @_J_Lowe, Jason Lowe
EVERTON v NORWICH, Saturday 3pm
Few would have predicted that at almost half way through the season, Norwich would be above Everton in the table. The Toffees have been inconsistent this season and have been hampered by an inability to score goals. They have struggled against the big clubs in the league this campaign but anything other than a win against Norwich must be regarded as a failure. The Canaries have certainly not been overawed by their return to the Premier League and for all their defensive fallibilities only the top five teams have scored more goals than them this season and they will undoubtedly be a threat to Everton’s defence.
Recent results: Everton 1-0 Norwich (02/02/2005, PL), Norwich 2-3 Everton (23/10/2004, PL)
One to watch: Steve Morison has been in fantastic form for Norwich and his five goals in his last six games have helped Norwich to their respectable league position. If he can combine with Grant Holt as effectively as against Newcastle last week then the Everton defence could be in for a tricky game.
Did you know?: If Tim Cahill fails to score this weekend he will have gone an entire year without a goal for the club. His last was on the 20th December 2010 against Man City.
Fantasy Pick: Leighton Baines, 51 (Everton), Steve Morison, 58 (Norwich)*
Tweet of the week: ‘Great news about Donovan back with us’, @louissaha08, Louis Saha
FULHAM v BOLTON, Saturday 3pm
This match comes at potentially a crucial point in both clubs’ seasons. Bolton are bottom of the table and have lost all but three of their games this season. Pressure is mounting on Owen Coyle to turn things around and time is starting to run out. While things are not going so badly for Fulham, they have won the same amount of games as Bolton this season and currently sit only three points above the relegation zone. Morale will be low after their agonising last second exit from the Europa League this week and so a win is vital if they want to prevent their season from starting to disintegrate.
Recent results: Fulham 3-0 Bolton (27/04/2011, PL), Fulham 0-1 Bolton (20/02/2011, FA), Bolton 0-0 Fulham (14/08/2010, PL)
One to watch: Clint Dempsey had a game to forget last week, missing a penalty and diverting the ball into his own net to give Swansea their opening goal. However the American remains crucial to the club’s fortunes, he has scored in all of Fulham’s three league wins this season. He will want to add to his tally and make last week’s game a distant memory.
Did you know?: Fulham have scored just 16 goals in 15 league matches this season - and six of those came in one match.
Fantasy Pick: Clint Dempsey, 65 (Fulham), Ivan Klasnic, 64 (Bolton)*
Tweet of the week: ‘Thanks for your well wishes, I'm devastated to be out for 4-6 weeks. After speaking to the specialist, it was very clear I needed a rest:(’, @1MarkSchwarzer, Mark Schwarzer
NEWCASTLE v SWANSEA, Saturday 3pm
Newcastle have conceded more than half of their goals this season in their last four games as their fantastic start to the campaign has stuttered a little. Their defensive injury troubles could be eased by the return of Fabricio Coloccini and they will want to get things back on track by beating Swansea who have been poor away from home this season. The visitors arrested their own slump in form with a win over Fulham last week and could bring top scorer Danny Graham back into the starting line-up. Rival Dutch keepers Tim Krul and Michel Vorm have both been in excellent from this season and it will be intriguing to see which of them comes out on top from this game.
Recent results: Swansea 1-1 Newcastle (13/02/2010, CHP), Newcastle 3-0 Swansea (28/11/2009, CHP)
One to watch: Demba Ba has scored 11 goals in his last 11 games and has two hat-tricks already this season. The Senegalese striker has been an excellent signing for the Magpies and they will be hoping he can add to his impressive goal tally and help return them to winning ways. Ba has scored 18 Premier League goals in 2011, only Robin Van Persie and Wayne Rooney have scored more.
Did you know?: Swansea have kept seven clean sheets in the league - the joint highest with Manchester United.
Fantasy Pick: Demba Ba, 92 (Newcastle), Michel Vorm, 76 (Swansea)*

WOLVES v STOKE, Saturday 3pm
Stoke ended Tottenham’s unbeaten league run last weekend with an impressive victory and currently occupy eighth place in the table. The Potters have also progressed to the knockout stages of the Europa League and Tony Pulis will quite rightly be pleased with how things are going this season. Wolves find themselves in a familiar position near the relegation zone and need every point they can get if they want to avoid going down at the end of the season.
Recent results: Stoke 3-0 Wolves (26/04/2011, PL), Wolves 0-1 Stoke (30/01/2011, FA), Wolves 2-1 Stoke (14/08/2010, PL)
One to watch: Peter Crouch was man of the match against Tottenham last weekend and Stoke supporters will hope he can produce more of the same. The striker is currently two short of 100 English league goals and although he has scored against 17 of the current 20 Premier League clubs he has yet to do so against Wolves.
Did you know?: Stoke have not won on their last 14 top-flight trips to Molineux. Their last triumph in the top division was a 4-3 triumph in November 1967.
Fantasy Pick: Wayne Hennessey, 57 (Wolves), Jon Walters, 71 (Stoke)*
Tweet of the week: ‘Hate how England don't prepare properly for snow. Once accidents happen they wonder why???? #donuts’, @asmir1, Asmir Begovic
WIGAN v CHELSEA, Saturday 5:30pm
Wigan and Chelsea both came from behind to record vital wins last week, although for very different reasons. The Latics have struggled this season and will do well to get anything out of this game against a Chelsea side who inflicted the first league defeat of the season on Man City on Monday and who appear to have turned a corner after going through a bad patch. Chelsea have scored 15 goals in the last three meetings between these teams and must be confident of scoring a few more against statistically the second worst defence in the league.
Recent results: Chelsea 1-0 Wigan (09/04/2011, PL), Wigan 0-6 Chelsea (21/08/2010, PL)
One to watch: Much debate about this match will surely centre on Frank Lampard. The England star has found himself a substitute in Chelsea’s last two games and his place in the side no longer guaranteed. He came off the bench to score the crucial winning penalty on Monday and is currently the most successful penalty-taker in the Premier League this calendar year. Whether he starts or not, how the Lampard saga plays out will be interesting to watch.
Did you know?: Chelsea are the only team to have used all three substitutes in every Premier League game this season - in total they have made 45 substitutions.
Fantasy Pick: Ali Al-Habsi, 53 (Wigan), Frank Lampard, 78 (Chelsea)*
Tweet of the week: ‘Finished trainning sessions today under snowy conditions and a very low temprature. Its never easy to practice and train under this weather’, @AliAlhabsi, Ali Al-Habsi
QPR v MAN UTD, Sunday 12pm
Man Utd have not had the best couple of weeks, crashing out of the Champions League as well as losing Nemanja Vidic and Darren Fletcher for the foreseeable future. However they must surely start as strong favourites particularly considering QPR have four defeats in their last six games and apart from Heidar Helguson have struggled for goals. The home side will have DJ Campbell available after his injury lay-off but will have to play extremely well to overcome a side undoubtedly instilled with the relentless determination of Sir Alex Ferguson.
Recent results: Man Utd 1-0 QPR (11/11/2008, CC), QPR 1-1 Man Utd (16/03/1996, PL), Man Utd 2 - 1 QPR (30/12/1995, PL)
One to watch: Nani rediscovered some of the form that he showed earlier in the season by scoring twice against Wolves last weekend and QPR will have to be extremely wary of the Portuguese winger. Nani is a much improved player and seems to have finally emerged from the shadow of expectation undoubtedly cast by Cristiano Ronaldo.
Did you know?: QPR last beat United on New Year's Day in 1992, in the old Division One, when Dennis Bailey scored a hat-trick in a 4-1 victory at Old Trafford a day after Sir Alex Ferguson's 50th birthday.
Fantasy Pick: Luke Young, 53 (QPR), Wayne Rooney, 94 (Man Utd)*
Tweet of the week: ‘Think I've found a man to respect and admire this morning, step forward Prof Noam Chomsky.......’, @Joey7Barton, Joey Barton
ASTON VILLA v LIVERPOOL, Sunday 2:05pm
While both teams occupy respectable top-half positions, they will surely not be completely satisfied with the way things have gone so far this season. Aston Villa have drawn more games than they would have liked and there is a sense that manager Alex McLeish has not yet entirely won over the fans following his move from rivals Birmingham City. Liverpool have struggled to make the most of their scoring chances, although they may feel luck has not been on their side as they have hit the woodwork 15 times. Nonetheless with the attacking options at their disposal they will be hoping to start scoring more frequently.
Recent results: Aston Villa 1-0 Liverpool (22/05/2011, PL), Liverpool 3-0 Aston Villa (06/12/2010, PL)
One to watch: Stewart Downing scored the winning goal in what was his last appearance as an Aston Villa player the last time these two sides met. However he has yet to score or even contribute an assist for his new club so Liverpool fans will hope he can do so in the familiar surroundings of Villa Park.
Did you know?: Aston Villa have conceded a league-high 32% of goals from corners.
Fantasy Pick: Gabriel Agbonlahor, 77 (Aston Villa), Charlie Adam, 66 (Liverpool)*
Tweet of the week: ‘Call of duty all day #boom’, @BBannan25, Barry Bannan
TOTTENHAM v SUNDERLAND, Sunday 3pm
Tottenham’s 11-game unbeaten league run came to an end against Stoke last weekend and they were knocked out of the Europa League midweek. However this is unlikely to trouble Harry Redknapp who will want to get back to winning ways and keep Spurs in the running for Champions League qualification. Martin O’Neill got off to a good start as Sunderland manager last weekend and he seems an excellent appointment for the club although he will face a much sterner test against Tottenham this Sunday. It will be interesting to see how he does.
Recent results: Sunderland 1-2 Tottenham (12/02/2011, PL), Tottenham 1-1 Sunderland (09/11/2010, PL)
One to watch: Tottenham’s top scorer this season is Emmanuel Adebayor and he has been an integral part of their success so far, giving them the finishing prowess they needed to compliment the creativity of their midfield. The Togolese striker has however never scored against Sunderland in five attempts and Spurs fans would love him to do so.
Did you know?: Sebastian Larsson has scored three goals from six direct free-kicks this season - no other player has more than one in the Premier League.
Fantasy Pick: Gareth Bale, 84 (Tottenham), Seb Larsson, 72 (Sunderland)*
Tweet of the week: ‘amazing seeing the snow falling. Not like Togo! Let's hope for a white Christmas!’, @Sheyiadebayor, Emmanuel Adebayor
MAN CITY v ARSENAL, Sunday 4:10pm
The game of the weekend is saved till last as two clubs from the top five meet in Manchester. Man City lost their first league game of the season on Monday as the title race became a little bit more interesting and they will be desperate to avoid losing again. Arsenal are unbeaten in their last eight league games and could provide a stern test to the home side although their much criticised defence could face a difficult game against by far the most potent strikeforce in the league, particularly as City will be out for revenge after their loss to Chelsea. It will also be intriguing to see who out of Robin van Persie and Sergio Aguero, the league’s top two scorers, can have the most influence on the game.
Recent results: Arsenal 0-1 Man City (29/11/2011, CC), Arsenal 0-0 Man City (05/01/2011, PL), Man City 0-3 Arsenal (24/10/2010, PL)
One to watch: Mario Balotelli has made headlines off the pitch once again this week after a training ground scuffle with Micah Richards. However this should not distract from the fact that the Italian striker is in great form with five goals in his last seven league games. The fact that Sergio Aguero was substituted rather than Balotelli in Monday’s game against Chelsea demonstrates his growing importance to Roberto Mancini’s regime.
Did you know?: Man City have not suffered back-to-back defeats in 67 matches (across all competitions).
Fantasy Pick: Sergio Aguero, 97 (Man City), Robin Van Persie, 121 (Arsenal)*
Tweet of the week: ‘Hard draw but you have to beat the best to win it! Looking forward to it! #Gooners’, @JackWilshere, Jack Wilshere

NATO is spending $56 million to give its forces in Afghanistan the ability to easily share real-time video with each other, and the U.S. (which has long had this capability). This effort includes installing encrypted data links with NATO unit headquarters and airborne video cameras (in manned aircraft and UAVs.) The NATO nations with Predator UAVs (Britain and Italy) will be the first to come online (because the U.S. already has some of the technology in place for its own UAV fleet). By the end of the year, most other NATO forces in Afghanistan will be able to share their aircraft and UAV video with other NATO forces.
Until now, most NATO nations had UAV video only accessible by the UAV operator (or, as a recorded vid, seen later on at headquarters). The real time sharing of video is crucial in staying ahead of the enemy, and making decisions faster. Lawyers with NATO forces can also use real time video to make sure any use of lethal force against hostile fighters is legal. Eventually, the NATO forces will add real time sharing of ground sensors (including vidcams).

With Suhner’s abrupt discontinuation of their water fed grinders we’ve had a number of people who have asked about availability of the extremely popular 2 inch LXB-10 grinder.
While Suhner is completely sold out of this model now, there is the non-water fed version of this 2 inch grinder available.
The LPB12 grinder is the exact same model as the LXB10 grinder with the exclusion of a water feed on the top of the grinder body.
Operation is the same, the lightweight nature and easy heft of this small grinder is still one of the best aspects of the system and now there is a lower entry price!
All you have to do is supply your own water while you grind your glass.

Brian Hoyer's familiarity with those he'll be working closest with helped lure the veteran quarterback to the Bears.
"It was a great opportunity," Hoyer said Monday at Halas Hall, two days after agreeing to a one-year contract to back up Jay Cutler.
"I had been with [offensive coordinator] Dowell Loggains in Cleveland and oddly enough [quarterbacks coach] Dave Ragone is from the same high school I am, so I had a lot of connections there. I've gotten to know Jay over the years just playing against him. I thought it was a good opportunity to play behind him and be a part of a great organization."
Quarterback Brian Hoyer has a career 82.2 passer rating in 43 games with 26 starts.
Hoyer, 30, has played eight NFL seasons with the Patriots (2009-11), Steelers (2012), Cardinals (2012), Browns (2013-14) and Texans (2015). The 6-3, 215-pounder has appeared in 43 games with 26 starts, completing 58.1 percent of his passes for 7,163 yards with 38 touchdowns, 26 interceptions and an 82.2 passer rating.
Hoyer's most expanded playing time came in 2014 when Loggains was his position coach with the Browns. Hoyer appeared in 14 games with 13 starts, completing 55.3 percent of his passes for 3,326 yards with 12 TDs, 13 interceptions and a 76.5 passer rating.
"Today was my first day, so [I was] kind of reminiscing back to when I was with [Loggains] in Cleveland," Hoyer said. "He's a smart guy. He knows a lot about offense and football. So to get back out there with him today was really cool."
Hoyer had his best season as a pro last year with the Texans, connecting on 60.7 percent of his passes for 2,606 yards with 19 TDs, seven interceptions and a 91.4 passer rating while playing in 11 games with nine starts.
Hoyer is excited to work with Cutler on and off the field.
"He's been great," Hoyer said. "He was one of the guys that welcomed me here. I had dinner with him Saturday night. It's good to have a good quarterback room."
After being uncertain where he'd play in 2016, Hoyer was happy to participate in offseason workouts for the first time Monday at Halas Hall.
"For me, it was just exciting to get back out and play football," Hoyer said. "It's kind of been a tumultuous offseason, so to be a part of a team and go through workouts and be around the guys and just kind of have one common goal it's been fun."


LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Super middleweight champion Andre Ward has had surgery on his injured right shoulder that will postpone his title bout against Kelly Pavlik for a second time.
The fight had originally been scheduled for Jan. 26 in Los Angeles but was postponed until March when Ward hit his shoulder while sparring.
After rest did not heal the injury, Ward got a second opinion from San Francisco Giants orthopedic surgeon Dr. Michael Dillingham, who discovered a small tear in Ward's shoulder capsule.
Dillingham operated on Ward on Friday and says the surgery went well. Ward is expected to begin rehab within a week.

The state’s cultural link to Pacific Island nations and its history of protecting nature both paved the way for bold climate lawsuits.
(Bloomberg) — When it comes to mitigating climate change, “yesterday’s good enough has become today’s unacceptable.” That was what judges on Hawaii’s Supreme Court ruled earlier this year, in the first US decision to declare a stable climate as an affirmative right.
The same court on Tuesday tossed an oil company appeal to quash a Honolulu lawsuit accusing industry giants of launching years-long deception campaigns about fossil fuel consumption. The decision fast-tracks the case towards what is likely to be the first US climate misinformation trial against the energy industry.
And at the state’s special environmental court — one of only two designated environmental courts nationwide — a youth coalition is pursuing a first-of-its-kind constitutional lawsuit against the state’s transportation department for approving high-emission projects.

UK artist and teacher Andrew Pawley has completed the latest chapter of his “Captain Yeah!” cosmic comic series featuring Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.
The “Captain Yeah!” comic series is an original comic based on The Flaming Lips lyrics, and is based on a “trans-dimensional freakzoid dude called Captain Yeah!, who spans all levels of existence and dimensions in spacetime,” Pawley said.

Among the new creator tools announced for Microsoft 365, Microsoft Edge, and Bing on Wednesday is Microsoft Designer, an AI-powered app that allows you to start with a concept and let the technology do most of the work in developing a creative project.
Microsoft Designer is based on an AI technology similar to DALL-E 2, which was created by OpenAI. The text-to-art generator recently became available to the public after a popular waitlist period following its April 2022 launch.
Microsoft Designer will work for more than developing images. You will be able to create social media posts, invitations, digital postcards, or graphics, among other creative projects with the AI-powered app. Similar to DALL-E, you can describe in text the project you want to make and the Microsoft Designer app will generate a result that is “totally unique … consistent, aligned, properly scaled,” Microsoft said in a statement.
Microsoft Designer also allows you to add more design ideas, such as images or text to the AI-generated content with a single click. From there you can share designs as you like in-app, whether it be directly to social media platforms or to friends, downloading for later use.
Also inspired by PowerPoint, the Microsoft Designer app is reminiscent of how you build out a presentation. The app will give you design options based on the type of content you’re trying to develop, and Microsoft claims to have over eight billion slide designs saved by customers already using PowerPoint, with more to come.
You can sign up for a free web preview of Microsoft Designer starting Wednesday. Microsoft is offering users a chance to try the app out and give the brand feedback. At this time Microsoft Designer preview will not include all of the features planned for the app.
Microsoft has not shared when the app will release for general availability, but when it does it will come in free and premium versions. The premium features will be available to Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscribers.

International Financing Review, a Thomson Reuters publication, reports that its Wall Street sources point to a far smaller Facebook IPO, raising about $5 billion instead of the expected $10 billion.
Facebook readies to file US$5bn IPO, could grow -IFRe
If the report is accurate the relatively small number of publicly traded shares would help support a high valuation. This might be necessary if the value of Facebook in private markets continues to increase before the IPO, which is expected in May 20212.
The small float, however, would increase by the end of the year as insiders and employees become eligible to sell their shares after a 6 month lockup period, and cash in before the holidays, by some estimates, creating more than 1,000 millionaires . A small float would help ensue that Facebook staff are able to sell at a high valuation.
The competition among Wall Street firms to lead the IPO looks to be won by Morgan Stanley, with Goldman Sachs, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Barclays Capital and JP Morgan in supporting roles, writes Anthony Hughes and Stephen Lacy. The report says that Facebook decided against Goldman as lead because of the huge controversy it caused last year when it botched a large private offering of Facebook shares.
Facebook's "Red Herring" its financial report could be out as early as tomorrow, February 1. It will give prospective investors the first audited look at the company's business. So far, unsubstantiated rumors have discussed 2011 revenues of $3.8 billion and an operating profit of about $1.5 billion.
A small share float is controversial because it can cause volatility in the share price. The Groupon IPO was heavily criticized for having a very small float of about 5% of its shares.
A smaller IPO will increase demand for Facebook shares and therefore its valuation. It will also give Facebook options to increase the number of shares available prior to the IPO while still keeping a tight hold over pricing.
In private markets the company has about a $85 billion valuation. It needs to make sure that its IPO valuation exceeds its private one by a broad margin and the best way to do that is by making sure demand for shares is far higher than supply.

We're used to hearing about the latest tell-all memoir from one of today's sports figures, political insiders, or celebrity wannabes. But what if we discovered that one of history's greatest heroes had written his life story? That's the premise behind Robert Silverberg's amazing novel Gilgamesh the King.
The journey begins when six-year-old Gilgamesh's father dies. As he grows to manhood and eventually ascends to the throne, he faces many challenges along the way: political intrigue, war, the burden of leadership. But none are as difficult as his intense internal struggles against loneliness and his own mortality. Weaving together historical data, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and his own fertile imagination, Silverberg creates a rich and compassionate portrait of a man who lived about 2500 B.C.
©1984 Robert Silverberg (P)2010 Eloquent Voice, LLC
"Fantasy, myth and ancient history interweave seamlessly in this powerful retelling of the epic of Gilgamesh.... Silverberg extends his mastery of the fantasy genre to the re-creation of the magic and mystery of ancient Sumer, uncovering the deep human truths that lie beneath the legend. (Library Journal)
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"Mary Renault is better"
This reads like something Mary Renault would write and she would do a better job.
The story is based on probably the oldest known story ever written. That alone makes it interesting. It is the story of a King from his childhood to late adulthood. Like all Silverberg books the prose is good. RS is one of the more talented writers around. It is written in first person by the King. As a youth he is confused over all the religious rituals and little is done to explain them to him. He learns as he goes. He grows up in the story and he becomes what he thinks is nearly a God. He is big and strong and he sleeps with several women a night (It's good to be the King).
Though there are lots of demons and such mentioned in the story, we see through his adventures how these are just how they explain anything they do not understand. We also see how Kings do not have all the power as they must deal with the priests and the priestess and what the people expect. Though the main character thinks he is a God, he is very human in his thoughts and even though I did not like the main character, I have no doubt this was what he was like in real life and how I would probably be under the same circumstances.
I gave this 3 stars, some four and five star RS books would be: AT Winter's End, The Word Inside and Downward To Earth.
a beautifully put together book all of different sources to complete one amazing autobiography type feel to this ancient story. Gilgamesh is and always will be one of the best Tales to come from Sumer and related areas. I have been blown away by this book!
"Terrible narration kept me from getting far"
Really. The narration is awful. In an odd way. The breathy, whimsical, "poetry reading" sort of way the narrator read was not only annoying, but totally distracting from what might have been a very good story. The man had a kind of high pitched voice and took a really outlandish approach to his reading. The author has some great works out there, and the original epic of Gilgamesh can be a very cool story too If you understand the contextual undercurrent and popular innuendos and story telling styles of the times in which it was written. Just couldn't get through more than a couple chapters with this narrator though. Not good.

Sometimes it can be quite difficult to know how to end a relationship with someone you adore. But it is important to do so in a manner that won’t be painful or perplexing for your spouse.
The best way to do this is to be genuine about your possibilities for breaking up, and prevent blaming these people for the breakup or perhaps sugarcoating for what reason it don’t work.
Find out why you wish to end the relationship
When you’re planning on ending a relationship, you need to know so why you want to do consequently. This will help you avoid permitting emotions get the best of you and associated with process less difficult.
Relationships are unique, and folks come together several reasons. Yet there are some key characteristics that a majority of healthy romantic relationships have in common.
A healthy romantic relationship is an individual where you both give the other person no title the space, support and time to do something you love. Recharging options one to both have a specific goal just for what you want the relationship for being and where you want it to look.
If you along with your partner typically share precisely the same desired goals, it might be time to move on. Starting may free you up to locate someone who does indeed, says Dr . John Gottman, and can offer you both the independence to go after a more meaningful life.
Another signal that you should split is whenever your partner explains to lies or doesn’t tell the truth. Although you may still absolutely adore your partner, telling lies is unhealhy for any relationship.
Integrity is one of the most critical things to contain in a relationship, also it’s a great identity trait. Honesty signifies that you speak the truth. Several charging opposed to laying, cheating, thieving, promising disregarding, misleading, bullshitting, hypocrisy, and self-deception.
It’s very imperative that you be honest about why you would like to end the partnership with somebody you love. Like that, they are going to understand why you’re doing it and could have a better possibility of dealing with the breakup in a healthy approach.
When you are ending a relationship with someone get loved for that long time, it is hard to talk to them about the problem. It’s common to have emotions of injure and unhappiness after a break up, and you might even cry.
Don’t declare anything that might make them feel below par, like showing that their errors or disparaging them. They could be the one so, who did a bad thing, but it is not a good idea to use personal insults to fix this.
Set organization boundaries
Healthy boundaries will let you establish distinct expectations and move on in a healthy approach. They also avoid emotions just like resentment and anger.
Restrictions are important to healthy interactions because that they define how each person in the relationship will behave and what every single partner needs to feel comfortable. Without restrictions, relationships can lead to emotional instability, relationship burnout and codependency.
Creating healthful boundaries could be challenging. It takes self-reflection, interaction and practice.
Unhealthy boundaries are both too stiff or as well porous. They will keep other folks at a distance, actually loved ones.
Establishing firm limitations when ending a marriage with an individual you love can assist you communicate whatever you expect and place the foundation with regards to moving forward in a much healthier manner. They will also stop future disputes, bitterness and heartbreak.
While you are ending a relationship, it is normal to feel several feelings of sadness or perhaps loss. It is necessary that you enable yourself to experience these emotions and not induce them aside.
It is also crucial that you take time for your self and do things that you benefit from. Doing this will help you to heal and restore your self after a break up.
You can do this by using up a brand new hobby or perhaps re-connecting with whomever you choose. These are great ways to get out of your cover and learn even more about your self.
In addition , it is important to be kind and empathetic. Being as well harsh may hurt your companion and make more discomfort for both of you in the long run.
Finishing a romantic relationship is never convenient, but it can be done if you are willing to make the work. You will eventually come out on lack of feeling more powerful and ready to start a new relationship with someone else.

The project of naming in each region of Italy a path of particular religious and naturalistic interest to the blessed mountaineer Pier Giorgio Frassati (Turin, 1901 – 1925) has grown year by year thanks to the Italian Alpine Club. In the Biella area (the land of Pier Giorgio and his family) the “International Frassati Path of Italy”, which leads from Pollone to the Muanda, connects to the Sanctuary of Oropa through the “John Paul II Path”.
“O mountains and hills, I adore you” Such declaration of love, so direct, simple and yet intense, is Pier Giorgio’s very own. He “loved the hills because he felt them as a majestic entity, a means to elevate the spirit, the exercising ground for the mind as well as the body”. Pier Giorgio’s search for the divinity was manifest in all his doings, even in the majestic, rugged landscape of the mountains. Thus he wrote to a friend: “Every day I fall more in love with these hills. If my studies allowed it I would choose to spend entire days up there, surrounded by that pure air, contemplating the splendour of Creation”. With the example of his life, anchored to the concept of ‘joyful charity’, which prompted his every action (in the family, within society, in his religious as well as political involvement), Pier Giorgio traced the path for all those who, in his own words, wish to “live instead of dragging their days on”
THE OROPA TRAIL
The Way of Oropa develops in four stages, which connect the Santhià train station (1 hour from Milan and 30 ‘from Turin) to the Oropa Sanctuary: 1 – From Santhià to Roppolo 2 – From Roppolo to Sala Biellese 3 – From Sala Biellese to the Sanctuary of Graglia 4 – From the Sanctuary of Graglia to the Sanctuary of Oropa
The first two days you walk along the Via Francigena to go up the Serra d’Ivrea; from here continue to the Sanctuary of Graglia and finally reach the Sanctuary of Oropa. The itinerary offers an amazing variety of landscapes and allows you to discover the historical and cultural beauties of the territory that goes from the agricultural “Pianura Padana Plain” to the Alps. Walking means also immersing yourserf in the history and spirituality of the places, going slowly and listening to the people who live there. The path is completely marked, provided with a Pilgrim’s Passport and a Testimonium; a good training to face a great European path such as the Via Francigena or the Camino de Santiago. It is possible to walk the path by downloading the GPS tracks or the App, or by printing the maps from the website www.camminodioropa.it

Stories from the surgery: Tick bites and Lyme disease
Each month, Petplan vet, Brian Faulkner, shares his stories about some of the strange, funny and sometimes difficult cases he encounters in his surgery.
This month he reveals how the hot summer months mean a whole host of problems, but pet owners should be aware of one in particular – ticks.
As the weather gets warmer, pet owners must ensure that their dog, cat or rabbit stay healthy throughout the summer. Things like grass and pollen allergies can be extremely irritating and, in some cases, dangerous.
However, with the rise of temperature, comes a corresponding rise in the tick population. Tick bites can make pets feel uncomfortable and, if they become infected, can lead to bigger health problems.
Last month, a five year old Labrador, Logan, came in to my surgery with symptoms that were suspicious of the tick-borne illness, Lyme disease. Here’s what you need to know about ticks and their potential danger…
What are ticks?
Ticks are a type of parasite which feed on animals’ blood and are most prevalent during the warmest seasons. The symptoms of a tick bite are similar to that of a flea bite, however, because of the extra risk of tick borne diseases, the problems they present are different.
Ticks can be found in woodland, grassland and heath areas, but are also common in urban areas as hedgehogs and foxes are common carriers.
Tick bites in pets
Ticks climb onto your pet’s coat as they pass through the tick’s habitat.
Ticks then bite and latch onto their skin for one to two days in order to suck blood. Whilst this is a cause of discomfort for any pet, it can also lead to bigger problems – such as the aforementioned Lyme disease.
Symptoms of Lyme disease
Lyme diseases is a bacterial infection passed on by the ticks which can be identified by a number of symptoms, including:
- High temperature
- Stiffness of joints
- Swollen nymph nodes
Although Lyme disease can lead to more serious complications (such as kidney problems), it is generally successfully treated with a course of antibiotics.
In Logan’s case, we were able to diagnose the Lyme disease and then prescribe him with antibiotics which worked well, especially as his owner brought him in to the surgery as soon as she noticed his high temperature.
Tick prevention for dogs and other pets
When it comes to treatment, prevention is better than cure. You should regularly check your pet for ticks, looking at their head, ears, legs and underside in particular. On walks, try to avoid woodland areas and long grass!
Ensure you heed professional advice on how to properly remove a tick, as if it’s done wrong, it can cause an infection. Special tick removers are recommended for tick removal and should be used with great care. Ask your vet for the right tick treatment for your pet.
Always keep an eye on your pet’s behaviour and seek immediate veterinary help if you notice peculiar symptoms.

Overweg back in jail
SLAYTON -- Just days after being released from jail for criminal sexual conduct against a child, Everett Charles Overweg, 19, was back in custody for possession of child pornography.
Overweg pleaded guilty to second-degree criminal sexual conduct in January, admitting in court he inappropriately touched a minor child under the age of 13.
He entered into a plea agreement for a stay of adjudication on the condition he get a sex offender assessment, attend counseling, have no similar violations and possess no sexually explicit material. He was also to serve 180 days in jail, but given credit for time served.
Overweg was released at the plea hearing, but taken back into custody in February. On April 5, his sentence became official, and he was released from custody, having served his time. That night he was located by the Nobles County Sheriff's Department walking toward Slayton on U.S. 59.
One week later, charges had been filed against him for possession of child pornography, and he was back in custody.
According to the criminal complaint, a computer was brought to a repair shop because of software issues. While the technician was working on the computer, she found files with suspicious content and contacted authorities.
The computer was turned over to the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) officer, who located several child pornography files, which had been downloaded between June and September 2009, on the computer .
Overweg is listed as a suspect in the police report, as is a juvenile male.
Overweg is still on probation for a theft conviction from April 2009. He also has a theft conviction from March 2009. The two child pornography possession charges carry a maximum sentence of five years incarceration each.


The tenure of University of Maine System Chancellor Joseph Westphal should have been instructive to the state. Now that system trustees have decided not to extend the chancellor’s contract and to seek a replacement, they should look hard at their own expectations for the next leader of Maine’s university system and harder still at the public expectation.
Whatever the progress under Chancellor Westphal, the first lesson for Maine from this experience is that the state doesn’t do well with bulldozers. With his policies, the chancellor has been something of a bulldozer, eager to push an agenda that would make the system stronger even if it meant pushing it onto an unwilling Legislature and faculty.
That style may be effective in some circumstances, but this is a state that finds it acceptable to mull tax reform for decades. What happens here, happens incrementally. Task forces are involved; stakeholders plant their stakes; policymakers confer and delay.
The next chancellor doesn’t need to accept that pace, but must consider it. The current chancellor’s attempts are helpful here: In his first year, he devised an ambitious plan to hold down tuition increases and repair campuses by making the system a spending priority in Augusta. After years of annual increases of about 2 or 3 percent, he proposed 13 and 17 percent in FY 2004 and ’05 and he was gently denied.
Next, he proposed remaking the university system and was partly turned away. Then it was a $400 million bond, which was turned down. This year, when he proposed a $300 million bond after losing a bond worth $9 million at the polls, the Legislature simply dismissed it.
The chancellor’s intentions were good and his perspective that the system deserved the investment was certainly correct. He lost clout, however, because the groundwork for these big requests hadn’t been done, and that was a real cost – the inability for a crucial part of this state to contribute more. Nevertheless, his service was marked by stronger links with the Community College System, restructuring in the face of difficult budget constraints and a system office move to downtown Bangor, among other accomplishments.
In a recent opinion column, political science Professor Michael S. Hamilton referred to Mr. Westphal as “the largely invisible chancellor.” That may be less a comment on his work than an observation about how he fit within the Maine system. The next chancellor should have experience outside of Maine, bring new ideas here and show success achieved elsewhere and live easily here.
After a year’s sabbatical, Mr. Westphal will spend three years as a system professor teaching political science at two-thirds his previous salary, or $133,000 a year. The position of system professor was created in 1985 and sets as a requirement a minimum of seven years of service as a chancellor or university president, a standard waived by trustees for Mr. Westphal and the previous chancellor, Terry MacTaggart, a system professor along with former UMaine President Peter Hoff.
It would be difficult to top this as a means to build resentment among a faculty that has been working without a contract since last fall. The next chancellor should at least get seven years in before being offered this opportunity. And let’s hope he or she lasts that long.

Help children develop listening skills by offering books on tape and by playing games in which you call out oral directions and instructions for them to follow. You might also try call-and-response songs, such as the classic recording “Follow the Leader” by Ella Jenkins, in which children are asked to clap and beat out rhythms to music in various ways.
Good storybook reading is an interactive process that helps children explore language and develop many skills. Offer a variety of texts, nonfiction as well as fiction. Here are some effective techniques for reading aloud:
Have children ask their own questions about the story and respond to classmates’ questions.
Encourage them to follow the text with movement, mime, or choral reading.
Draw children’s attention to the forms of print, such as punctuation, letters, the space around words, chapter title placement, the line length differences between prose and poetry.
Provide repeated readings of the same story so children can gain mastery of the narrative, ideas, and language.
When reading chapter books to children, ask them to summarize before and after you read each chapter. “So where are we so far?” you might ask at the beginning of the session. And then at the end, “So what happened in this chapter?”
Pair or group children together for shared book experiences. Or put children who have the same interests together and start book clubs in your class. In the book club format, help them read the same or similar books and discuss them with one another. Teachers might use parent volunteers to come in and help with reading or discussions in the clubs. Or children can bring home books to be read with parents and report on them the next day in their book clubs.
Give children access to a wide variety of reading materials.

There’s a lot going for new UK organic butter brand All Things Butter, from its entrepreneurial founders to its strategy to donate a portion of sales to charity, but could the yet-to-be-released product range truly disrupt the market?
The UK organic food and drink market has seen volume declines since October 2021 after a period of a steady increase in total market volume share. In recent months, consumers have been trading down on organic milk in particular, as its cost jumped 21.5% to 20ppl versus 18ppl for conventional, with organic sales volumes down 15.3 versus -3.3% for conventional milk. British shoppers have also been buying less block butter, switching away from brands to own-label products as well as cheaper non-dairy spreads.
But co-founders Thomas Straker and Toby Hopkinson are of the opinion that there is a niche for a new organic butter brand in retail. Straker – who owns Notting Hill eatery Straker’s and recently opened Flat Bread at the Battersea Power Station’s Arcade Food Hall – and Hopkinson, who helped to grow soft drinks brand TRIP in the UK, both share business know-how in the food industry. The duo have secured a listing in a supermarket chain from November and talks to secure a farm store distributor are on-going. The butters will also be sold direct-to-consumer through the brand's website.
In addition to that, All Things Butter has secured £530,000/$656,300 in pre-seed funding ahead of the launch from investors including Adam Levene and Barbie film producer Thomas Ackerley. The brand has also generated a buzz on social media, having attracted around 35,000 Instagram followers.
But will the internet buzz translate into high sales volumes? Speaking to DairyReporter, Hopkinson told us: "The butter industry has faced a difficult time over the last 30 or so years with the likes of butter alternatives growing on supermarket shelves, whilst consumers are increasingly replacing butter with cooking oils in their day to day cooking. We hope with our platform we can educate the consumer that buying fantastic butter can significantly elevate your everyday cooking and can act as a strong replacement over olive oil or with our flavoured butter, even substituting a pasta sauce."
All Things Butter products will be priced between £3.00-£3.50 at 250gs. Four SKUs will be launched initially, including salted, unsalted and a chili-flavored version. The butters are double-churned at Somerset-based Brue Valley Farm, and 1% of revenues will be donated to support the British agricultural industry.
Asked whether he has any concerns around demand and pricing, Hopkinson told us that the company will aim to pass any further savings due to from falling commodity prices to the consumer. "Cream price is on the decline and we will continue to pass those savings onto the consumer as it hopefully will continue to come down," he said.
"Our mission at All Things Butter is to get more consumers using butter in their everyday cooking due to its excellent taste but also importantly due to the fact that butter is a natural ingredient which holds nutritional value."


Programmes News Young people express Brexit concerns Around 100 people from Derry attended a multimedia showcase in the Nerve Centre on Thursday (October 25) which reflected young people’s hopes and fears on Brexit. Youth Voices of Brexit was the culmination of a partnership between Co-operation Ireland, the Nerve Centre and regional colleges from across Northern Ireland that began in early 2019. Funding was provided by the Irish Government. The participants, who live on both sides of the border, explored and researched topics such as freedom of movement, employability, education, health and friendships and reflected their opinions in a series of productions which included animation, film and music. John Peto from the Neve Centre said: “The Brexit debate has been dominated by an older demographic, but young adults are the people who will likely be most affected by the changes that are coming. “There was a sense that their views were being drowned out so this project allowed them to say what they thought, and learn multi-media skills at the same time.” Barry Fennell from Co-operation Ireland said: “We were delighted to be able to lend our support to this project which has given a voice to people who are too often voiceless. “Working with people from both sides of the border is something Co-operation Ireland is passionate about and I can’t commend the young people who took part enough for their enthusiasm.” Students who took part in the programme benefitted from training in artistic and communicative media including video, photography and journalism. Partnering with the regional colleges meant the programme was truly cross community and cross border, with an estimated 2471 students from the Republic enrolled in Northern Ireland’s FE Colleges.
