    Especially in the Arizona summer months, the heat can possibly dissuade anyone from outdoor activity. But some would argue that it is the most important time to push oneself to do physical activity because of that potential for excuses and lethargy. Having the excuse of “it’s too hot” is definitely relevant when temperatures reach triple digits for weeks straight, but residents should be conscious of a time in Arizona that is conducive to laziness.

    Add the Clean Elections Commission to the list of groups hoping to intervene in the federal lawsuit over Arizona's new legislative-district map. The commission oversees the state's public-campaign-finance system and therefore, it argues, is directly affected by the challenge to the new district lines. The commission has a duty to ensure the 2012 election proceeds smoothly, and the prospect of another legislative map so close to the Aug. 28 primary could complicate that operation, the commission argues in a motion filed with the U.S. District Court. Like the Maricopa County Recorder's Office,…

  • Russell Pearce is still in

    11 May 2012 | 2:51 pm
    Rumors have run rampant over the past 24 hours or so that Russell Pearce was going to bow out of his bid for Mesa's Legislative District 25 Senate seat. Pearce, the author of Arizona's controversial immigration law Senate Bill 1070,  lost his Senate seat in a November recall election. Pearce, a Republican,  was unreachable by phone Friday morning, but did send a  very brief e-mail responding to our inquiry as to the accuracy of the rumors. "Not true," Pearce said in the e-mail.  As of now, Pearce is still running. In the primary, he'll face Bob Worsley, a…

    The Children's Action Alliance convened a group of moms to talk about what the recently enacted state budget does, or more accurately, doesn't do, for them. Playing off a Mother's Day theme, the alliance expressed regret the Legislature didn't restore funding for programs that help families and mothers in need, from housing assistance to child-care subsidies to health care. Programs that assist grandparents raising their grandkids have gone away with no prospect of returning. Sherry Griffin of Surprise, who is raising her 7-year-old daughter, lost state support two years ago when the…

    At a forum discussing a proposed open primary strategy for Arizona, state Sen. Jerry Lewis, R-Mesa, became a key exhibit. Attorney Grady Gammage, who supports the Open Elections/Open Government Act, pointed to last fall's recall election of Senate President Russell Pearce as an example of how a non-partisan election could take the extreme edges off the state Legislature. Lewis defeated Pearce, but voters still chose a conservative candidate, Gammage said. The word "conservative" drew boos and shouts from the crowd at the forum sponsored by the O'Connor House. Apparently, many…

    For the impatient: view the code, or see the demo. Several weeks ago I set out to create a single page web app leveraging Backbone.js on the front end with Ruby on Rails powering the back end. In the architecture for this application, Rails is essentially just a JSON API. All of the front-end magic happens with Backbone.js and related friends. Granted, Rails is doing a lot more boilerplate than just acting as an API, but the separation of the UI code and back-end code is a lot clearer in this model. read more

Instructions can be found in the README for the Github project. One of the most talked about features in Rails 3 is its plug & play architecture with various frameworks like Datamapper in place of ActiveRecord for the ORM or jQuery for javascript. However, I've yet to see much info on how to actually do this with the javascript framework. Fortunately, it looks like a lot of the hard work has already been done. Rails now emits HTML that is…
