Black America Journalists should be concerned about newsroom cuts, but the Black community and lovers of democracy must be alarmed, too. Here's why. From calling for the police to be funded to making fleeting references to issues that disproportionately affect Black people, the president's speech left much to be desired. Colin In Black & White adds another dimension to the now exiled quarterback. As his voice finds new mediums, he’s found teammates to execute further his vision: education for Black and brown communities about racism, the structures which keep it alive, and how to tear those systems down. White House Senior Advisor for Public Engagement Trey Baker highlighted several areas of the president's agenda directly impacting Black communities, as the president makes a big push for his expansive infrastructure plan. In today's installment of hustling backwards, Candace Owens is pushing a conspiracy theory that Democrats are trying "to import" migrants to make "the black vote irrelevant." And she wants an apology from "Black America," too. Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan's July Fourth speech about the state of Black people in America will be seen and heard by a global audience. The Congressional Black Caucus has submitted a sweeping list of proposals that it says elected officials must implement to specifically protect Black folks and their best interests as the country grapples with the coronavirus crisis. - Indigenous Peoples' DayThings You Wouldn't Have Without Native Americans - op-edTaking A Stand Against Forced Motherhood - women's history monthErika Alexander Narrates New Audible Series 'Finding Tamika' - #theblackballotKeturah Herron Wins Kentucky Special Election - #theblackballotImportant Primary Elections Happening This Week - OP-EDBlack Voters: Dressed Up With Nowhere To Go Get Informed!

Fridays, September 29 - October 20, 2017 Zephyr Institute What is Free Speech? A seminar on free speech with Dr. Molly Oshatz Time & Location Fridays, September 29 - October 20, 2017 Zephyr Institute 560 College Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94306, USA Description Free speech has become the campus issue of our day. In the 1960s, student radicals protested to gain free speech; today, student radicals on various campuses protest—often violently—to shut down speech on political grounds. How is it that free speech has become so controversial? Is it worth defending? Are there valid limits to free speech, and if so, what are they? Is free speech essential to the purpose of the university? With readings from John Stuart Mill, Catherine MacKinnon, Stanley Fish, and John Henry Newman, this seminar will explore the meaning, value, and purpose of free speech, particularly for the university. 9/29/2017: John Stuart Mill, On Liberty (1859) Chapter 2, “On The Liberty of Thought and Discussion," pages 18-34, 49-52 10/6/2017: Catharine MacKinnon, Only Words (Harvard University Press, 1993) Chapter 3, “Equality and Speech,” pages 70-110 10/13/2017: Stanley Fish, There is No Such Thing as Free Speech and It’s a Good Thing, Too (Oxford University Press, 1994) Chapter 8, pages 102-119 10/20/2017: John Henry Newman, The Idea of a University (1852) Discourse V, “Knowledge Its Own End,” sections 1, 2, 4, 6, 9 Discourse VI, “Knowledge Viewed in Relation to Learning,” sections 5, 6 Discourse VII, “Knowledge Viewed in Relation to Professional Skill,” sections 1, 2, 5, 6

It wouldn't even have it's own police golf cart. And it's not based on Ojai California, it's based on Slab City, California. Which is patrolled by Imperial County Sheriffs, so the equivalent would likely be SA County Sheriffs. Oh sure, VWE updates and *then* you update. Suuuure.

Exciting day in the Council Chambers … but the fate of Okura still remains undecided….. On Friday the Auckland Council voted on whether they were going to accept the Unitary Plan Panel’s recommendation to develop in Okura. The Council passed the motion that: “The Governing Body (Council) will consider rejecting recommendations relating to the extension of the RUB north to Okura …. if further advice from staff, before the end of the meeting, provides appropriate reasons for rejection and a possible alternative (being Council’s closing position at the Unitary Plan Panel’s hearing)” What this means is that the Council officers will present a report to Council at the Council Meeting this Monday. The Councillors will then vote on whether they want development to go ahead. Here’s how the voting went today: No to accepting the Panel’s recommendation – Brewer, Casey, Clow, Cooper, Darby, Fletcher, Hulse, Lee, Stewart, Walker J, Walker W, Watson, Wood Yes to accepting the Panel’s recommendation – Brown, Cashmore, Quax, Webster Absent – Anae, Filipaina, Krum, Penrose You can watch the debate here: Part 1 (starts at 4.26min) Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Thanks Fiona McLaughlin.

Richard Overton is believed to be the oldest living World War II veteran. (CHEERING, CLAPPING) At 107 years old, he got an enthusiastic reception when he arrived in Washington, DC Sunday. USA Today was there. OVERTON: "Well, I wasn't expecting this kind of crowd." This Veterans Day will be extra special for Overton — he started the day with breakfast at the White House with President Obama. (Via KHOU) It's been 70 years since he came home from the Pacific, and Monday the President Obama honored the Austin native in his Monday afternoon remarks. (Via WYFF) OBAMA: "We are honored that he's here with us today. Let's ask Richard to stand again, because he can stand." (APPLAUSE) (Via MSNBC) Overton volunteered to serve in 1942. He was a member of the 188th Aviation engineer Battalion as part of an all-black unit. (Via Fox News) Earlier this year he met Texas Governor Rick Perry — and was actually pretty chill about it. (Via KTBC) REPORTER: "Are you excited about meeting the governor?" OVERTON: "No, he's a human, ain't he? What? I ain't scared of him." Curious the secret to Overton's long life? He told USA Today he puts a tablespoon of whiskey in his coffee evey morning — and smokes a dozen cigars a day. We don't recommend it — but it obviously works for Overton.

Juvenile offenses we defend include: - Assault - DWI/DUI - Underage drinking - Drug charges - Sexual harassment - Vandalism - Shoplifting - Truancy - MIP - Underage sexting - Gang crimes Aggressively Fighting for Your Child's Future No matter the circumstances surrounding the arrest or charges your child faces, The Law Offices of Joseph S.

Hi Gang: Later today, Saturday, December 15th, I will be a guest on an excellent radio show, the “Conservative Republican Forum,” hosted by Steven Rosenblum and his co-host, Daria DiGiovanni. My segment is scheduled to run from 6:15 PM until 6:45 PM Eastern Standard Time. We plan to discuss the push being made for amnesty for unknown millions (tens of millions?) of illegal aliens and the impact that such program would have on the lives and livelihoods of American and lawful immigrant workers and their families. We will also consider the impact of lawfully admitted foreign workers each and every month on the unemployment rate and the prospects of Americans to realize the “American Dream.” Here is a link to the show’s website: I hope you will be listening! Immigration is not a single issue but a singular issue that impacts nearly every challenge and threat confronting the United States today! Simply stated, the immigration laws were enacted to save lives and protect the jobs of American workers. If our government’s failures to protect American jobs by securing our nation’s borders and effectively enforcing our immigration laws concerns you or especially if it angers you, I ask you to call your Senators and Congressional “Representative. This is not only your right- it is your obligation! All I ask is that you make it clear to our politicians that we are not as dumb as they hope we are! We live in a perilous world and in a perilous era. The survival of our nation and the lives of our citizens hang in the balance. This is neither a Conservative issue, nor is it a Liberal issue- simply stated, this is most certainly an AMERICAN issue! You are either part of the solution or you are a part of the problem! Democracy is not a spectator sport! Lead, follow or get out of the way! Please check out my website at AND Magazine: Please also check out my personal website: On Friday evenings from 7:00 PM until 8:00 PM Eastern Daylight Savings Time, I host my show, “The Michael Cutler Hour” on the USA Talk Radio Network on Blog Talk Radio.

Similar to Eisenhower’s Communique No. 1 on D-Day, this was FDR’s version. A less encountered piece. Description “THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON, TO MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY EXPEDITIONARY FORCES:” Dating most likely from the D-Day era, but not excluding being issued around November of 1943 for TORCH, the invasion of North Africa, FDR mentions this document going out to all army personnel “where the war is being fought.” The document bears the facsimile signature of Franklin D. Roosevelt. The size is nearly identical to those issued by SHAEF for the D-Day landings, and all subsequent communiques. Very good condition, with a small section torn away near a fold along the edge. Folded just like Eisenhower’s first communique issued before the D-Day Invasion. Not as commonly found.

The paint is dry, the CSS assembled, the PHP under control. Welcome to my new website. This site is the replacement old blog once known as Schadelmann.com (German for “skull man”). The old site was fun, and developed a readership, but changes in my life and work, as well as my interests, prompted me to make the move to a “real” website. If you’re looking for Yet Another Political Blog, look elsewhere. My focus is not to prop up one side or another, or parrot the party line from the liberals , the conservatives, or the mushy middle. Instead, in my role as a longtime political professional and producer I’m going to spend my time debunking politicos, pundits and spin not with partisan rhetoric, but with an analytical scalpel (and occasionally a blowtorch and a pair of pliers). I will also be casting a critical eye on politics behind “political reform”, a subject most political commentators won’t tackle. Free passes won’t be given to my friends on the left, right, Texas left, or sideways. And of course, what political blog is complete without cheers and jeers for the ongoing soap opera known as the Democratic Party, and special commentary on our esteemed Governor. I’ll be kicking off the site with commentary from the California Democratic Party Convention in Sacramento this weekend. Most of all, I aim to entertain, as well as inform from a perspective that’s not usually found amongst our chattering classes. If you’re a member of the press and you want a point of view that’s interesting to your readers, I’m the guy you want to talk to. If you’re a voter, a citizen, or someone who needs someone to help them navigate the waters of current events, this is where you want to be. Thanks, and enjoy the site!

WDAM-TV Hattiesburg Hyde-Smith: Leak of Pentagon documents ‘very serious business’ By Charles Herrington CAMP SHELBY, Miss. (WDAM) - Mississippi Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith is reacting to the recent leak of Pentagon documents. The loss of dozens of classified documents linked to the war in Ukraine is being investigated by federal authorities. “This is very serious business,” Hyde-Smith said. More than four dozen documents were leaked, many of them labeled, “TOP SECRET.” They were posted online and revealed details of United States spying on Russia’s war efforts in Ukraine and assessments of Ukraine’s combat strength. Intelligence gathering on U.S. allies, like South Korea and Israel, also was leaked. Hyde-Smith said she wants to find the person, or persons, who leaked the documents. “I think we should absolutely focus all of our attention on identifying who that leaker is and punishment that is due to that leaker, because we cannot have this and have a secure country,” Hyde-Smith said. Hyde-Smith was at Camp Shelby Wednesday for a ceremony honoring Vietnam War veterans.

As you know, I do know usually write about American politics, because,...well,...I do not really care about American politics. This video, entitled "60," and released by the National Republican Senatorial Committee [NRSC], caught my attention. The number "60" is a reference to the 60 Democratic or Democratically-aligned Senators currently serving in the U. S. Senate, now that Al Franken of Minnesota has finally been sworn in. The video focuses on images of Al Franken. The video suggests that, due to Democratically controlled White House and Congress, including a now theoretically filibuster-proof Senate, we should already be thinking about the 2010 midterm Congressional elections. Below, I have provided my 10ag on the members of Senate Class III, those up for election in 2010. If the space for commentary has been left blank, it means that I have no opinion or no clue about the Senator in question. Feel free to leave your own 10ag in the comments section. (And if anyone can tell me how to get rid of this huge blank space between here and the table below, please do.) |Bayh, Evan (D - IN)| Considered a moderate, he is a possible 2012 presidential contender, if Obama really messes up, vice-presidential replacement when Biden steps down next term for "health reasons," which he will undoubtedly do. |Bennet, Michael F. (D - CO)| |Bennett, Robert F. (R - UT)||Bond, Christopher S. (R - MO)| |Boxer, Barbara (D - CA)| Touted as a champion of the environment in the '80's [by me] while serving in the House, this "limousine liberal" from Marin County has got to go. Who will challenge her? Former Rep. Duncan Hunter (R) is too conservative. Former San Diego Mayor Susan Golding (R) has been out of the limelight for too long. So, who will step up to the plate? |Brownback, Sam (R - KS)| Not that I care what the goyim think, he is considered Israel's best friend in the Senate. In other words, he believes in supporting Israel financially, yet also supporting the Jewish state's autonomy. Still, one should always be suspicious of the Christian Right's motivations. |Bunning, Jim (R - KY)||Burr, Richard (R - NC)| |Burris, Roland W. (D - IL)| President Obama's replacement in the Senate, recent news reports indicate that he will not seek election to a full term, citing difficulties with fund raising. |Coburn, Tom - (R - OK)| |Crapo, Mike (R - ID)||DeMint, Jim (R - SC)| |Dodd, Christopher J. (D - CT)| His current term has been marked by allegations of financial shenanigans. |Dorgan, Byron L. (D - ND)| |Feingold, Russell D. (D - WI)| This super liberal senator provided his sister the "rabbi" a turn at giving the Senate's opening prayers. 'Nuff said.... |Grassley, Chuck (R - IA)| |Gregg, Judd (R - NH) | He turned down an opportunity to be Secretary of Commerce upon sensing some White House shenanigans. He is considered as one of the few who knows what he's doing with America's wallet. |Inouye, Daniel K. (D - HI)| Governor Linda Lingle (R), are you reading this? |Isakson, Johnny (R - GA)||Leahy, Patrick J. (D - VT)| The only solution here seems to be to let Vermont secede from the U. S. |Lincoln, Blanche L. (D - AR)| Considered a moderate, she has not appeared to be too intimidated by the liberal Senate leadership. |Martinez, Mel (R - FL)| |McCain, John (R - AZ)||Mikulski, Barbara A. (D - MD)| |Murkowski, Lisa (R - AK)| Look for a possible challenge by her nemesis Sarah Palin, who defeated her father in the Republican primary. Palin will then be well-poised for a presidential run in 2016. I don't think that Palin is "all that," but maybe a term in the Senate will give her some much needed national and foreign policy experience. |Murray, Patty (D - WA)| The self-described "mom in tennis shoes" has got to go. Too liberal? Too much of an airhead? Take your pick. |Reid, Harry (D - NV)| Believe it or not, when he was in the minority, he was actually a big defender of Israel. Hmm... I wonder what happened. Now, he just sounds all over the place. I thought airheads only came from California. I guess they come Nevada, too. |Schumer, Charles E. (D - NY)| |Shelby, Richard C. (R - AL)||Specter, Arlen (D - PA)| This senator has been in the press most recently for his party switching. Apparently, this was not the first time he has pulled such a stunt. This time around it appears to be some sort of power play, rather than an ideologically led strategy. |Thune, John (R - SD)||Vitter, David (R - LA)| |Voinovich, George V. (R - OH)||Wyden, Ron (D - OR)|

Trust Me, I’m Lying by Ryan Holiday EPUB & PDF – eBook Details Online - Authors: Ryan Holiday - Publish Date: July 19, 2012 - Language: English - Genre: Money, Memorial, Business - Format: PDF / EPUB - Size: 2 MB - Pages: 259 - Price: Free - ISBN: 159184553X I CALL TO YOUR ATTENTION AN ARTICLE IN THE NEW York Times written at the earliest of the earliest junctures of the 2012 presidential election, nearly two years before votes would be cast.1 It told of a then obscure figure, Tim Pawlenty, the governor of Minnesota. Pawlenty was not yet a presidential candidate. He had no campaign director, no bus, few donors, and little name recognition. In fact, he did not even have a campaign. It was January 2011, after all. What he did have was a beat reporter from the blog Politico following him from town to town with a camera and a laptop, reporting every moment of his noncampaign. It’s a bit peculiar, if you think about it. Even the New York Times, the newspaper that spends millions of dollars a year for a Baghdad bureau, which can fund investigative reports five or ten years in the making, didn’t have a reporter covering Pawlenty. Yet Politico, a blog with only a fraction of the resources of a major newspaper, did. The Times was covering Politico covering a noncandidate. It was a little like a Ponzi scheme, and like all such schemes, it went from boom to bust. Pawlenty became a candidate, coverage of him generated millions of impressions online, then in print, and finally on television, before he flamed out and withdrew from the race. Despite all of this, his candidacy’s impact on the election was significant and real enough that the next Republican front-runner courted Pawlenty’s endorsement. There’s a famous twentieth-century political cartoon about the Associated Press that was, at the time, the wire service responsible for supplying news to the majority of the newspapers in the United States. In it an AP agent is pouring different bottles into a city’s water supply. The bottles are labeled “lies,” “prejudice,” “slander,” “suppressed facts,” and “hatred.” The image reads: “The News—Poisoned At Its Source.” I think of blogs as today’s newswires. BLOGS MATTER By “blog,” I’m referring collectively to all online publishing. That’s everything from Twitter accounts to major newspaper websites to web videos to group blogs with hundreds of writers. I don’t care whether the owners consider themselves blogs or not. The reality is that they are all subject to the same incentives, and they fight for attention with similar tactics.* Most people don’t understand how today’s information cycle really works. Many have no idea of how much their general worldview is influenced by the way news is generated online. What begins online ends offline. Although there are millions of blogs out there, you’ll notice some mentioned a lot in this book: Gawker, Business Insider, Politico, BuzzFeed, Huffington Post, Drudge Report, and the like. This is not because they are the most widely read, but instead because they are mostly read by the media elite, and their proselytizing owners, Nick Denton, Henry Blodget, Jonah Peretti, and Arianna Huffington, have an immense amount of influence. A blog isn’t small if its puny readership is made up of TV producers and writers for national newspapers. For More Read Download This Book EPUB

If you’re not being urged or coaxed or beseeched to vote right now, perhaps you’re living under a rock. A very heavy rock. A rock, say, the size of Dallas, the size of Memphis or the size of Atlanta. And do you know what? Right now we’ll lift that rock off of you. For you do need to vote. And you, too. And you. And you. And you. Thirteen contributors to The Clyde Fitch Report are offering 18 words — each — on why we plan to cast our ballots on Nov. 6. We want to know why you will vote, too. Please leave a comment at the end of this post. Because even in my cynical dubiety about democracy, alternatives suggest a system in which no one can vote. — Alan Harrison Our government is of, by, and for the People. Our leaders aren’t “them” — they’re us. So speak up! — Katelyn Simon Because voting isn’t futile or irrelevant — it’s our one chance to directly shape how the country is run. — Sean Douglass Child observer of lever clack, curtain swish. First vote 1976 in Michigan and six states since. Anticipated privilege. — Martha Wade Steketee I vote because it’s the most powerful yet undervalued tool Americans have to affect change. Use it, please. — Tom Berger Because it is my inalienable right as a citizen to have a say on who runs our country. — Iris Dorbian I vote because I’m free and sometimes because I’m excited, like in the good years 1992, 2008-2016. — Betsyann Faiella I have voted at every opportunity since I was 18 because it is my right and my responsibility. — Shawn Lent Vote.

Because human survival is at stake. Is that enough? — David Terrell Because: people have died for my right to vote. Would die for my right to vote. Will die. — Martha Garvey I’m voting because I’ve been drinking way too much wine waiting for this day for nearly two years. — Robin Rothstein Where else on Earth is the right to vote debated, not celebrated, but in America?

Vanity asks the ques- tion- is it popular? Conscience asks the question-Is it right? -Martin Luther King Jnr. Very recently, I stumbled on a docu- ment where Harvard Political Professor, Samuel Huntington, in an address at Taipei, on August 1995, contrasted Singapore leadership model with the democratic model in Taiwan. He smartly summed it up this way; ‘the freedom and creativity that Pres- ident Lee has introduced in Taiwan will survive him but the honesty and efficiency that Senior Minister Lee has brought to Singapore are likely to follow him to his grave. Warning that authoritarianism may do well in the short term, but the experience clearly shows that only democracy produces good government over a long haul. Significantly, neither Taiwan nor Singapore is the interest of this piece as I cannot expressly explain the exact side of the divide (authoritarian or democratic) we are presently situated as a country. However, the awareness of the inherent consequence of allowing au- thoritarianism to thrive on our shores as warned above should form useful lessons for those making life in Nigeria quoting Thomas Hobbs, become nasty, brutish and short. From Sheik Ibrahim EL-Zakzaky protracted detention in contravention to court directives to violent protest by his followers which left so many people dead and embarrassed the government. From Omoleye Sowore call for revolution and clamp down on peaceful protesters by a combined team of security forces, to the intensified mindless killing of innocent Nigerians by the member of the Boko Haram sect and other criminal elements yet to be identified. What about hunger, and excruciating poverty? Apart from these happenings expos- ing the consequence of our past failures which have erupted in the present uncontrolled experiment with atten- dant risks and indefinite outcome, it is obvious that nations currently going through civil wars are now safer than our country. Regrettably but expected, in the face of all these unpalatable experience, sup- porters of government justified the ac- tions and argues that when crisis blows up, there isn’t time to plough through hundreds of pages of the constitution to know what the rule says, as crisis incites anxiety and conditions of high stress- forgetting that war which is considered legal violence has its rules. That not withstanding, the truth as we all know is that what is happening is but governments’ habit of disregard for democratic ethos. Precisely, with this myriad of soci- opolitical contradictions which have conspired directly and indirectly to give the nation unenviable tag of a people in grief, no nation-best typifies a country in dire need of peace, justice, equity and equality among her various sociopoliti- cal groups than Nigeria. Why this calls for concern is that before the nation enthroned democra- cy on 29th May 1999, political pundit had always accused the military of being intolerant, immature, corrupt, unserious, unpatriotic and tribalistic. But today, the political classes of our land have acquired these qualities and went ahead to become a tool for other national vices which currently domi- nates as well as threaten the country. What is more? Less hope for the future. As to factors fueling this appaling situation, there is no single answer to it, but there are possible explanations. First, close to the entrenched distrust of the political leadership and inability to manage diversity which character- izes our sphere is the national vexation by the people who once lived in com- fort and loved to stay alive as life was never a burden. But today, life in their estimation has become a burden with the cost of living comparatively high and national security now a problem, our value system which used to be sound has gradually been eroded and people no longer have value for the sanctity of human life The country is currently a direct opposite of what it used to be. As succulently captured by one writ- er; recently, in Ogun State, Nigeria, a life was brutally taken without a court trial, simply because of broken wind- screens. This is very instructive against the background that on 17th July this year, a 32-year-old Nigerian destroyed several vehicles at the High Commis- sion office in London and is alive today to answer charges. If he had done what he did in Abuja or any other town, he would be long dead and Nigerians would have rationalised his death’. From this account, it is certain that we are a country where vanity as against conscience rules. And it’s not only in contrast with what obtains in developed nations but provides an- swers to why the current administra- tion promotes democracy everywhere except where it hurts. Unquestionably, this is happening because as a nation, we have developed a ‘culture’ of lawlessness and practice leadership model that no longer appre- ciates people who speak their minds, without fear or hesitation. But honours all that tell leaders that they are right all the time, while deep in their hearts, they have another opinion. This fact has consequentially created an atmosphere where constructive debate is no longer valid, deferring po- litical ideas perceived as destructive to the nation’s interest and the masses call for national dialogue seen as a challenge to the leaders. Lamentably also, while other nations view their citizens as the most precious asset and most important factor in the progress of their countries, here, human life makes little or no meaning. But of all these, the most worrying aspect of the narrative is that while other nations see leadership as posses- sion of abilities for making successful decisions based on deep consideration, consultation and research, here leaders search for consensus as an alternative to moulding consensus. And enforce national unity instead of its promotion. It has not only led to the destruction of social infrastructures relevant to a meaningful and acceptable level of social existence for our people but pro- pelled Nigerians to conclude that there is something deeply troubling about leadership in Nigeria. In my views, this assertion may not be wrong looking at the government’s approach to handling issues, their dis- dain for facts and rule of law, and lack of curiosity for new information that might produce a deeper understanding of problems and policies. What the handlers of Mr President failed to remember is that so many nations are great today because their leaders promoted a tradition of educa- tion combined with social and political actions among their citizens that ensure sincere national unity. Finally, aside from studying the actions of the eminent men, to discover the reasons for their victories, for us to move forward, we must learn to protect the robbed and punish the robber.

Add your reaction Share By Max Reyes, SFVYD Editorial Director On Tuesday, May 17, 2011, SFVYD-endorsed candidate Scott Svonkin emerged victorious in the LA Community College District Board’s runoff election for the 5th District. The election is a great win for young democrats as Mr. Svonkin is a passionate, experienced leader who will work to strengthen the community college district and ensure a voice for our generation. Our club has been a strong supporter of his candidacy and, in fact, organized a young democrat fundraiser raising $2,500 for his campaign’s GOTV efforts. Mr. Svonkin comes to the Board with a great wealth of experience. He was a product of the community college system, who has dedicated his career to public service including serving as Chief of Staff to an Assemblymember, working for Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley, serving two terms as a Community College Student Trustee, and teaching a class at Valley College. Currently, Mr. Svonkin is a Senior Advisor to Sheriff Lee Baca and Vice President of his local Schoolboard. SFVYD also endorsed candidates for the March 8th elections earlier this year. Here is a list of candidates who were successful in their elections: Los Angeles Community College District Board of Trustees District 1 - Mona Field District 3 - Steve Veres District 7 - Miguel Santiago San Fernando City Council Antonio Lopez Sylvia Ballin Calabasas Fred Gaines

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Hillary Clinton made a surprise appearance at the Marc Anthony concert at the AmericanAirlines Arena Friday. CBS4's Entertainment Reporter Lisa Petrillo, who was there on special assignment for Entertainment Tonight, spoke exclusively with Clinton who said she was grateful for the singer's support. "It's a nice opening door to the Latin community," Petrillo told her. "Well it's a very important opportunity to really get my message out through someone who has had so much credibility, who has done so much in their lifetime. I am appreciative of that," Clinton responded. "Can you do the salsa?" Petrillo asked. "He told me he would give me salsa lessons in the white house," Clinton joked. Clinton told CBS4 she attended the concert because mixing politics and entertainment allows candidates to reach new audiences. Launched her new initiative "Latinos for Hillary." Earlier on Friday, the Democratic frontrunner hosted an event at Broward College. Clinton talked about fighting the effort to defund Planned Parenthood and raising the minimum wage. She also brought up the mass shooting in Oregon, saying she'll push for sensible gun control laws. For more on Campaign 2016, click here. for more features.

Theft Charges Are A Serious Matter Underestimating the seriousness of theft charges can leave you in a vulnerable position. Representing yourself can result in a conviction and penalties such as hundreds of dollars in fines and months in jail. Multiple convictions can result in further consequences, which is why it is important to do everything you can to defend yourself. I am attorney Action Lavitch, and I am prepared to review the facts of your situation, identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and develop a strategy to represent you. I know what is at stake in these cases, and my experience can act as your advantage in your defense. How I Defend My Clients In the years I have been representing the people of Los Angeles and Orange County, I have taken cases involving all manner of theft charges, including: - Shoplifting - Embezzlement - Robbery - Fraud - Burglary Depending on the severity of the crime, your charges may elevate from a misdemeanor to a felony. For example, theft can become a felony if the amount of stolen goods exceeds $950. When I take your case, I will explain what you are facing and develop a plan to help you pursue the best possible outcome by pursuing defense strategies such as: - A claim of right or proving the accused believed the property was theirs - Entrapment - You were returning the property in question - Intoxication In addition to building a strong defense, I also consider other methods of defending you, such as negotiating a favorable plea deal or dismissing the charges altogether.

president without the faith-based decision he made in 1986. “I could not have quit drinking without faith,” former President George W. Bush writes in his memoir, Decision Points, which released Tuesday. “I also don’t think my faith would be as strong if I hadn’t quit drinking.” It was the first significant decision among several that ultimately solidified Bush’s resolve to act on his belief that God was calling him to lead the nation as president, the memoir shows, according to a report published Wednesday by Religion News Service (RNS). That his politics were influenced by his faith in God after Bush took office in Jan. 2001 is no revelation. But now he recounts in his own words, across the 497 pages, the ways his religious belief shaped his life and his politics, and thus his administration, RNS reported. His reliance on God, though not the central thrust of the book, remains a theme throughout, the report stated. Bush’s decision to quit drinking came a year after evangelist Billy Graham visited the Bush family vacation home in Maine in 1985. Bush writes in his memoir that at the time he occasionally read the Bible but viewed it as “a kind of self-improvement course,” RNS reported. Graham showed him that the point of the Scriptures was to follow Christ. After later joining a weekly Bible study, Bush started reading the Bible every morning, and it became a practice he continued during his presidency. While Graham helped Bush reach his pivotal decision about alcohol, Bush credits Texas pastor Mark Craig of First United Methodist Church in Austin as inspiring him to pursue the presidency, RNS stated. The moment came during a sermon when Craig recounted that Moses was at first hesitant to follow God’s directive to lead the Israelites into their promised land. “We have the opportunity, each and every one of us, to do the right thing, and for the right reason,” Bush recalled Craig preaching, according to RNS. At the other end of the pew, Barbara Bush mouthed to her son, “He is talking to you.” Details of how Bush became a Christian and the ways his spiritual journey shaped his then-first term in office is also recounted in The Faith of George W. Bush, published by Charisma House in November 2003. RNS highlighted examples from the memoir of times when Bush noted his faith and moral values playing a role in both his chief-executive and personal decisions and revealed that: - His push for global AIDS relief was fueled by his visit to a Ugandan clinic, where he left feeling challenged by the biblical admonition: “To whom much is given, much is required.” When he knelt at the casket of Pope John Paul II in 2005, he prayed for ailing ABC anchorman Peter Jennings. - His moral views contributed to his decision to ban federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. He revealed that as a teenager, he drove his mother to the hospital after a miscarriage as she held the fetus in a jar. “I remember thinking: ‘There was a human life, a little brother or sister,”‘ he writes. - In a meeting with John Paul, he told the pontiff that his church’s “steadfast support of life provided a firm moral foundation on which pro-life politicians like me could take a stand.” - When he decided in 2001 to ban the use of federal funds “to support the destruction of life for medical gain,” he was struck by the personal nature of the criticism. “They mocked my appearance, my accent and my religious beliefs,” he wrote. “I was labeled a Nazi, a war criminal, and Satan himself,” but he says the “shrill debate” never prompted him to second-guess his decision. - He defends his Office of Faith-based and Community Initiatives, which he said helped more than 5,000 charities receive federal grants. His reliance on faith continued through his last day in the White House: “I began Tuesday, January 20, 2009, the same way I had started every day for the past eight years: I read the Bible.”

A good time was had by all. Rumored Riot in UGLI Attracts Police, Crowd -- But No Rioters By BRUCE WASSERSTEIN and STEVEN SCHWARTZ Helmeted police swept into the basement of the Undergraduate Library last night to quell a rum- ored riot. They were greeted by laughing students-but no riot. Pictures of the scene, however, were taken from at least one photographer by officials. A li- brarian explained, "We do not want any publicity." In anticipation of a rumored prank, students gathered at 9 p.m. in the east area of the UGLI basement. An official considered Saigon Coup Forces New U.S.-Vietnamn Policy Review SAIGON (P-With a verbal jab at United States Ambassador Maxwell D. Taylor, Lt. Gen. Nguyen Khanh yesterday put Harvard- educated Nguyen Xuan Oanh into office as premier of South Viet Nam.x Khanh also said he would ask Phan Khac Suu to stay on as chief of state until a new government is formed. Khanh had ousted both Suu and Premier Tran Van Huong in a bloodless coup Wednesday. At a news conference, Khanh also said the cabinet, except for Huong, would remain in office on a caretaker basis. Taylor's Reaction Khanh scowled as he said he had not yet conferred with Am- bassador Taylor on the coup. Asked what Taylor's reaction to the Scoup' has been,' Khanh snapped "Why don't you ask him?"

Darkness Suddenly the lights went off, and UGLI officials refused to turn them back on until the police arrived. Upon arrival, the police were engulfed by curious students. One officer noted, "It looks to me like there is no riot; it is only a bunch of college kids walking around." A Sgt. Remnant, spokesman for the policemen on the scene, said he had no explanation for the, summoning of the officers. Attendant The riot rumor was originally spread by the UGLI basement attendant, who asserted, "These people are acting more like juve- nile deliquents than students." 3 Correction In yesterday's Daily, the ten- tative time schedule for the summer session was wrongly referred to as the "summer semester catalogue." It was an- nounced by Douglas R. Wool-' ly, director of registration and records, that "the final spring- summer time schedule will be available February 18." He said it will "list all courses of- fered and their times." The courses will be those in the spring period (IIIa), summer period (I1Ib) and those in the 16 week period (III). She described the incident to the upper echelons of the UGLI administration who, in turn, phoned the police. One librarian on the main floor, who had not been downstairs, told students asking for help, "There is a riot3 in the basement. I can't help you1 now."{ The students meandered about the library for over 45 minutes,1 taking the incident with all thet seriousness of a study break. The police officers seemed to take the situation lightly once the threat of riot was dispeled. By 10 p.m.. the library was back to normal. Library officials refused com- ment on the incident but reported no damage., jectives and composition of the, committee will be announced, Prof. Wallace Berry of the music schoolsaid yesterday. He is chairman of SACTJA's Student Relations Committee which initiated the idea for the study group. General Concern "There is general concern that students are not given a format to express effectively their opinions," Berry declared. The study team, officially titled "The ad-hoc Com- mittee on Student Participation in University Affairs" will seek to propose workable machinery for airing student sentiment. The idea for a study of the stu- dent's role here has come from many quarters within the Univer- sity, Berry said. One source was an article in The Daily by Prof. Arnold Kaufman of the philoso- phy department, last December. He wrote "students have an im- portant responsibility to assist in the development of a more invig- orating University community." Events at Berkeley To this internal pressure, re- cent events at the University of California's Berkeley c a m p u s "have added great urgency," Berry observed. The study group is expected to include undergraduates and grad- uates as well as representatives of the Office of Student Affairs. It will take up the philosophical question or the desirability of stu- dent participation in University affairs based upon previous spe- cific arrangements to assure such participation such as in Student Government Council and student- faculty "government." Berry has already cdntacted some students to ascertain inter- est in serving on the committee and has named a tentative chair-; man for the group. Newly-elected Graduate Student Council Presi-; dent James McEvoy, Grad, and his immediate predecessor, Law-; rence Phillips, Grad, have both agreed to serve. Prof. Marvin Fel- heim of the English department is the proposed chairman. Increased Co-operation 7 A plan to increase student-fac- ulty co-operation was instituted two years ago when SGC estab- lished a number of subcommittees parallel to major subcommittees of SACUA. The object was to seat student members on the corres- ponding faculty committees, but this plan failed for lack' of stu- dent participation, 'erry observed.I In establishing the study group,' the faculty will be following a successful tradition in reforming student affairs. The development of Student Government Council in 1954 and the re-organization of the Office of Student Affairs in 1962 followed recommenda- tions by similar committees. 1 Expect No Reversal in Iran Policy TEHRAN, Iran (M-The assas- sin's bullet that ' struck down Premier Hassan Ali Mansour will bring no major changes in Iran's internal or pro-West foreign policy. This was made clear yesterday by the new premier, Amir Abass Hoveida, who said after present- ing his cabinet: "As can be observed from the composition of the cabinet, all of them are men who were used by Mansour. The new government does not intend any major changes in ministers. . "There will also be no change in Iran's foreign and internal economic and social policies." Moslem Church Land The Shah had named Mansour premier last March to press his campaign to buy up Moslem church land and that of other large holders and sel it to pea- sants on easy terms. As security police continued their relentless investigation into the death Tuesday of Mansour, informed sources asserted that the Moslem terrorist group believed responsible for the killing is not powerful enough to create gen- eral turmoil or an effective anti- Shah movement. Crack Down The sources said the new gov- ernment will cracle down merci- lessly on the fanatics. Those tak- ing part in the assassination plot soon will face execution, they added. The sources said this isolated act of terrorism will not affect Iran's dealings with Western oil companies. Even while Mansour was linger- ing between life and death, five new bills for Persian Gulf off- shore oil exploration were put be- fore parliament. He had planned to present them personally when he was shot in front of parliament last Thursday. Oil Legislation Both parliamentary and oil circles said they expect the bills to be approved by both houses of parliament within a fortnight. The measures provide Iran will get 75 per cent of oil income and $108 million in cash. Similarly, Iran's ten-year-old alliance with the West, particular- ly, its ties with the United States and with the Central Treaty Or- ganization, will not be shaken by the assassination, the sources said. Ultra High Frequency receivers are coming to University resi- dence-hall televisions, but they will be purchased through Uni- versity channels. East Quadrangle Cooley House President Jim Lemmel, '67E, re- vealed yesterday that his house was denied University permission to purchase and install a UHF re- ceiver for the house television set. Lemmel said yesterday that Roy Passon, coordinator of building services for the residence halls, told him the University would not let any students or non-University personnel climb onto the quad- rangle roof to install the UHF antenna. Icy Passon last night declined to comment on the roof ban, but Residence Halls Business Manager Leonard Schadt explained, "we can't allow students up on the roof; it's icy and someone might fall off and get killed." Unlike many University build- ings, whose roofs are relatively ac- cessible, the residence halls have traditionally kept roof doors lock- ed tight. Elaborating, Schadt explained that all UHF receivers and an- tennas will be purchased by the University and installed by the Plant Department. He indicated that plans currently are underway for the project but that he is not certain when it will be completed. Tuesday Cooley House had hoped to have its all-channel receiver installed by last Tuesday, as its members wanted to watch the Michigan State basketball game on UHF channel 50. They had planned to purchase the receiver and antenna from a local store which agreed to help install the equipment. The merchant had offered the students a special deal on the equipment, provided the merchant would be allowed to install it, the students reported. Through the 'U' Lemmel said he was told that the purchase must go through the University. "We don't see why we have to go through all this red tape," he said. Interpreting University policy, Schadt said that it is "best for the University to purchase this equip- ment, because we can get a better price and insure the equipment as well." He said that studies have al- ready been made at South Quad, Mary Markley and West Quad to install the equipment. Schadt is not certain when the project will be completed. However, he said, he'd "rather have the University do it and do it properly." Unhappy The Cooley students are not pleased by the decision. As Lem- mel pointed out, "We'd much rather do it ourselves, it would be a lot faster." Nonetheless, for the time being, the Cooley MIouse 21-inch TV is destined to receive only 12 channels. ; tions for democracy? "It is in the general interest of democracy to find out the true foundations of democracy," Prof. Carl Cohen of the philosophy de- partment, Dearborn Campus, said last night. He doubted religion could be the foundation or the justification of democracy. Cohen spoke on "Reflections on the Religious Foundations of De- nocracy," at the B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation. He emphasized that his talk was a "reflection," not an "argument." Defines Democracy Cohen spoke of democracy as "a form of government whose members participate in their gov- ernment." He said while religion could be spoken of as either "a set of beliefs, attitudes or means of conducting oneself," he would refer to it as "beliefs." Noting that people claim there are relationships between democ- racy and religion, Cohen took one " of these claims, "religion justifies democracy" and analyzed its pos- sible meanings. First Meaning The first meaning could be "that religious truths must be justified if democracy is to be justified, making religious truths necessary for the justification of democra- cy," he. said. In discussing this claim, Cohen asked: "Does political liberty en-' tail that the soul be free?" He said "if we learned that there is no God, we still would not aban- don our liberties or weaken our convictions. Our political beliefs are not dependent upon religious truths. We can find other grounds to justify liberty," he added. Unfriendly Relations Personal hostility b e t w e e n Khanh and Taylor has been evi- dent since Dec. 20, when young generals of the former premier's high command overthrew the High National Council that was the legislative foundation for Pre- mier Huong's civilian government. Each has told newsmen that he regards the other as unworthy to hold his respective job. Seventh Coup The coup was the seventh in a series of governmental upheavals that have averaged only 65 days apart in this Communist-menaced nation since the destruction of, President Ngo Dinh Diem's regime Nov. 1, 1963. There are indications that the United States will at least coun- .tenance the latest military take- over, with the hope that a frame- work of civilian control will be restored if scheduled elections are held March 21. Civilian Governmvest The military leaders have indi- cated they intend to operate as far as possible within the legal frame- work of civilian government and to retain plans for early selection of a national assembly. There was no reiteration of a State Department warning to Vietnamese military chieftains Dec. 22 that continued American support was based on the exist- ence of a Saigon government "free of interference." Exiles Buddhists Usually reliable sources said Khanh made a deal with leaders of the Buddhist insurrection, at least on a temporary basis, which called for the departure of several into political exile abroad. State Department officials re- fused formal comment on Khanh's coup. Press officer Robert J. Mc- VICE-PRESIDENT CUTLER Manifesto 1. SGC thanks those students and student organizations who supported the "stay-in" action at the Michigan Theatre on Friday, 22 January 1965. 2. In view of the failure of Butterfield Theatre manage- ment to meet with representa- Lives of SGC to discuss the price icreas , SGC urges a continuing boycott of the Cam- pus, State, and Miiigan The- atres in an effort to force such negotiation. 3.nIn urging students to sup- port this boycott, SGC pledges itself to seek alternative forms of entertainment for students on weekends. These alterna- tives will be provided In cooper- ation with other student or- ganizations." 4. Executive Committee of SGC contact Regents to urge Regents to divest themselves, of stock in Butterfield Com- pany because SGC feels that the interest of the student body conflicts with that of. Butterfield Theatres. 5.. SGC will attempt to meet with leaders of all student or- ganizations interested 'in spon- soring a picket and boycott of Butterfield Theatres. The pur- pose of this meeting shall be to discuss possibility of affecting a picket and/or boycott in the next month. SGC Voices ObjectivesQ By JUDITH WARREN Student Government Council at its meeting last night, unani- mously voted to continue its long- range pressure on the Butterfield Company in protest of the re- cent increase in movie prices. Coming out of a Committee of the Whole session, SGC adopted a long-term resolution by Barry Bluestone, '66, and Thomas Smithson, '65, stating the direc- tives of student protest. The res- olution calls for a coalition of all student organizations in an all- out attempt at a boycott of the Butterfield Theatres and at of- fering alternative low-cost student entertainment. Decline of Interest One of the problems that the SGC members saw as imminent is a decline in student interest and students' accommodation to the price increase. To' counter such a possibility, Bluestone said, "we must have a coalition of student organizations with SGC at the helm." "We must continue to boycott the 'Butterfield Theatres for the next month. We must provide so- cial pressure on the University to divest itself of its stocks in the Butterfield Company and we must apply pressure on the Regents." Student Action Douglas Brook, '65, president of SGC, said that the events of last weekend will not be the end of student action, and implied that increased student action would re- sult if Butterfield representatives refuse to negotiate with SGC. Dorm Movies "I'm going to ask the dorm pres, idents to show the regular Sun- day night movies on Friday and Vomen 1 Days Proposition Would Affect Dorms Only Cutler Denies Rumor That OSA Policies Are Already Set By GAIL BLUMBERG A decision concerning apartment permission for junior women can be expected from the Office of Student Affairs within eight to ten days. At the same time, Vice-Presi- dent for Student Affairs Richard L. Cutler, who made this an- nouncement yesterday, firmly de- nied rumors that OSA policy is al- ready set, emphasizing that "there are at least ten vital, interrelated issues which have yet 'to be re- solved." "I would advise any dormitory residents with a special interest in this decision not to commit them- selves for next year one way or another at the moment," he said. (According to current Office of Student Affairs policy, only'-senior women with parental consent'and women over 21 have automatic apartment permission. Any change in this policy would not take ef- fect until fall and would come too late to affect sorority women.) Rumors Abound Rumors announcing 3ju n io r apartment permission have been circulating in women's residence halls prompting some sophomores to sign apartment contracts. Con- tributing to these rumors has been a poll circulated by the Women's Conference Committee (composegl 7f Women's League President Nan- cy Freitag, '65; Assembly Asso- ciation President Maxine Loomi, '65N, and Panhellenic Association President Ann Wickins, '65) re- questing a count of the number of sophomore women who would take advantage of junior apartment permission if it were granted. WCC 'included this proposal in, a series of recommendations sub- mitted to Cutler's office at the beginning of the semester. Based on an earlier survey of regula- tions circulated last year among undergraduate women, the recom- mendations also called for key permission for juniors and per- mission for all women with keys to leave their residences after clos- ing. According to the WCC, last year's survey indicated that a plurality of undergraduate women wanted these three .changes.. This fact coupled with the "philosoph- ically justifiable" basis for the chianges prompted the recommen- dations. Cutle Seeks Poll Cutler requested the WCC poll of sophomore women just complet- ed. Of 451 women polled in the residence halls, 317 said they would definitely move into apart- Yments if permitted. WCC feels, however, that the necessity for parental consent, which was not raised in the survey, would lower that number. Regardless of the decision, sophoiore sorority women will not be able to move out of their houses next fall. "With rush over for this year, the vacated places could not be filled," Miss Wickins explained. The other two recommenda- tions would affect all women. According to Cutler, "these will be taken up in what we view as their order of urgency. It is es- sential that we move one way or another on the apartment ques- tion, but the sign out issue, for instance, can wait." WCC presented the same three recommendations to former Vice- President for , Student Affairs James A. Lewis last April, but they were not acted on. Lewis did, however, approve the elimination of junior hours on weekends and the extension of freshman and sophomore hours. Act To Prolong; Dock Walkout 'BEYOND THE FRINGE' A took at.

Multiculturalism is a smoke screen to flood nations with people who will never adapt in order to create chaos. That's why countries like Saudi Arabia, Israel and the like will never accept refugees.

| | You might say Salt Lake City had its chance. Developing the city’s northwest quadrant, an area west of the international airport, has been a long-time dream of city leaders trying to deal with a housing affordability problem. The city is hemmed in on three sides by mountains and boundaries. Homes in its wealthier neighborhoods keep appreciating, while middle-income families choose to buy in the suburbs and commute. The northwest quadrant, raw desert land, has sat for decades like a veritable Oz on the horizon, shining with promise. “This,” former Mayor Palmer DePaulis said in 1988, pointing west of the airport, “is where we believe the future of Salt Lake City will be.” But in the intervening 30 years, the city did nothing to make that future happen.

WASHINGTON—Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts made the following statement after the House of Representatives’ vote for Speaker on Friday: “We congratulate all members of Congress who worked hard over the past weeks to deliver reforms to the U.S. House on behalf of all Americans. “This is a historic moment for our country. American voters delivered a mandate for conservative leadership in November—a mandate to put an end to business as usual in Washington. That demand is now being fulfilled by those members taking seriously their commitment to their constituents. “In the face of extreme Establishment rhetoric and media spin, conservatives fought for their constituents, had a robust debate over how to fix Congress, and now have a stronger voice to make meaningful changes. “There is much work to be done and Heritage looks forward to working with the 118th Congress to address the most pressing issues facing Americans today, including border security, Biden’s dismal economy, countering the Chinese Communist Party, and serving as a key partner in holding unelected bureaucrats accountable through the oversight process. “Restoring America demands hard work and harder choices. The battle for the Speaker’s gavel has been a small step for the everyday American, and a giant leap for Congress. “It’s time to get to work.” Background (7 Policy Priorities): In November, The Heritage Foundation announced the release of its full slate of conservative policy priorities for the new Congress and incoming state legislatures across the country. Those priorities include: - Empowering parents to make education choices, - Securing our borders and reducing crime, - Ensuring free and fair elections, - Reversing the growth of regulations, spending, and inflation, - Countering the threat of Communist China, - Holding Big Tech accountable, and - Protecting unborn life and family formation. These seven policy priorities will guide Heritage strategy and decision-making at both the federal and state level in the years to come, and the newly released slate of specific policy goals will give lawmakers a clear roadmap to follow in fighting for America’s future. Read the full list here.
