*sigh* Fundamentalist community, let me pass on some advice to you I learned from the atheistic community: If you have set yourself on fire, do not run. Okay? Okay?? Please? Look, D, you had two months to say to Harvard in private emails, "Im sorry, I shouldnt have been using that animation in my paid presentations. I wont use it again. I really do like 'Inner Life', though, and would love to use it in classroom presentations, from the BioVisions site, if that is acceptable." I sat here, for two months, waiting for that to happen, anything to happen, and it didnt. Two months, on your own terms, you could have written a similar post to yesterdays. I would have given you the benefit of the doubt-- maybe you didnt know the credits werent visible to the audience, and I wouldnt have said a word beyond this, as its Harvards problem, not mine. This would have been a funny joke to those of us involved in dealing with you people, but it would have been a PR non-issue for you. But after you set yourself on fire, you didnt douse it out with a bucket of ice cold reality and accountability. You ran. And youre still running. Why not just state "I screwed up. Sorry everyone." and move on? Why the excuses? Why the denial? Why the passive language? Why the vague words and cryptic capitalizations? Why the writes and rewrites of your 'press release'? We know it wasnt written of your own volition, or it would have been done *before* Harvard had to take action. And, your behavior before this, regarding this issue, is not indicative of someone who made an innocent mistake. Its weird. So what with this frantic running? Is the inability to say "I was wrong" a pathological feature of Creationists? Or are you hiding something? Or is it both? Or is it more? And now we get Casey weighing in on the issue, according to cre8id at AboveTopSecret.com-- PBS/NOVA online - Intelligent Design on trial: ...to my knowledge, Discovery Institute has neither authorized nor received nor is making use of any presentation that used that animation. We have had nothing to do with creating or selling a DVD of that animation, nor do we have anything to do with placing that presentation on Google Video.I dont know what he is talking about with that last part, but the first part sounds similar to DIs claims post-Dover ("WE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH DOVER!"). Maybe Luskin is telling the truth. Maybe this was a magic non-science Creation-friendly narration with convenient edits that AiG or ICR would have killed for... but only Dembski could find it... but he cant tell us where... and he didnt share it with anyone... and its subsequently disappeared from the Internet... But that simply isnt what Ive been told. Maybe this was all a silly Dembski mistake, blown out of proportion due to his decision to remain silent... But what if we find more videos of more DI fellows, presenting this animation? *shrug* If youve set yourself on fire, do not run, DI. If youve done it, better admit it to Harvard now, apologize, and move on.

Bible-black with a blinding white logo raging across the chest. It’s the time honoured Black Band Tee. Every band has one. If you’re in a band and you ain’t got a Black Band Tee then you ain’t even in a band, you’re in a sham! And if you’re a fan of a band and you don’t own the Black Band Tee then what kind of fan are you? Hey?? Sort it out!! Grab yourself a tees worth of black cotton power and put it to the test. Good for you. White as the driven snow, with a filthy black logo centre stage, this tee is cut to make you look like you just got back from the marina where you burned your billion dollar super-yaught down to the waterline just to freak the snot out of all the other billionaires. Good for you. Want to be a Civil Civic model? Send us photos of yourself/friends/animals in a CC Tee and we might just use it here.

Nice, but they’re still white, conventionally attractive, not visually trans* or disabled, neither of them have visable scarring, stretchmarks, etc, I mean, even on a basic body-positive note, neither of them have hair legs or armpits. I’ve yet to see ONE graphic along these lines that actually include anything other than the chubby/skinny thing. Let’s see some fat, scarred and stretchmarked black trans women with prosthetic limbs or dwarfism or something, and hairy legs, maybe she’s got a shaped afro or something, natural black hair is looked down on by society. Then I’ll get as excited as the rest of tumblr by these nicely drawn graphics. YOU PEOPLE ARE NEVER HAPPY A RE YOU IS THIS FUCKING BETTER??!?@»@?

क्या चाँद तक की दौड़ वास्तविक थी?; जून 1994; साइंटिफिक अमेरिकन मैगजीन; लॉग्सडन, डुपास द्वारा; 8 पेज पच्चीस साल पहले, 20 जुलाई, 1969 को, नील ए आर्मस्ट्रांग ने चाँद की सतह पर पहला कदम रखा। उस घटना ने शीत युद्ध में अमेरिका की राजनैतिक और तकनीकी जीत साबित की। इसके बाद भी, सोवियत सरकार ज़ोर देती रही कि सोवियत संघ ने कभी चाँद पर उतरने की योजना नहीं बनाई थी। इसलिए उनका तर्क था कि चाँद पर इंसान भेजने की प्रतियोगिता एकतरफ़ा थी। हकीकत कुछ और थी; हाल ही में उस काल की गोपनीय जानकारी और ख्रुश्चेव और ब्रेज़नेव के सोवियत अंतरिक्ष कार्यक्रम के प्रमुख प्रतिभागियों की गवाई साबित करती है कि चाँद की होड़ वास्तविक थी। नए साक्ष्य बताते हैं कि व्यक्तिगत प्रतिद्वंदिता, बदलते राजनीतिक गठबंधन और अफ़सरशाही की अक्षमता चाँद पर उतरने के सोवियत कार्यक्रम में विफलताओं और देरी का कारण बनी। इसके विपरीत, अमेरिकी प्रयास को लगातार मज़बूत राजनीतिक और जनता का समर्थन मिलता रहा। नेशनल एरोनॉटिक्स एंड स्पेस एडमिनिस्ट्रेशन और उसके ठेकेदार दल भी हुनरमंद और अत्यधिक प्रेरित कार्यकताओं और प्रबंधकों से भरपूर थे। मानव अंतरिक्ष अन्वेषण में प्रारंभिक सोवियत नेतृत्व के बावजूद, संसाधनों के अधिक उदार और प्रभावशाली आवंटन के साथ मिलकर, इन कारकों ने अमेरिका को चाँद पर सबसे पहले पहुँचने की प्रतियोगिता जीतने में सक्षम बनाया।

हौल्टन, मेन - हाल ही में अरूस्टुक काउंटी में किया गया एक अनुपालन जाँच यह सुनिश्चित करने के लिए कि अल्कोहल बेचने वाले व्यापार मेन के शराब कानूनों का पालन कर रहे हैं निराशाजनक समाचार लेकर आया है, क्योंकि लक्षित प्रतिष्ठानों में से लगभग आधी पुलिस द्वारा उद्धृत की गई। अरूस्टुक काउंटी शेरिफ विभाग के डिप्टी क्रिस मालंबॉर्ग ने इस हफ्ते की शुरुआत में कहा था कि अंडरएज ड्रिंकिंग, एडल्ट कॉन्सिक्वेंस अभियान के तहत शराब कानून के अनुपालन के लिए काउंटी के आसपास के रेस्टोरेंट और स्टोर सहित 33 प्रतिष्ठानों की जाँच की गई। उनमें से, 13 को उल्लंघन के लिए समन किया गया। अरुस्तुक काउंटी को पिछले महीने राष्ट्रीय राजमार्ग यातायात सुरक्षा प्रशासन और अमेरिकी परिवहन विभाग द्वारा प्रायोजित कम उम्र के बच्चों द्वारा शराब पीने की परियोजना में भाग लेने के लिए देश में केवल चार साइटों में से एक के रूप में चुना गया था। सामुदायिक आवाज़, एक काउंटी स्तरीय संगठन जो युवाओं के बीच मादक द्रव्यों के सेवन पर अंकुश लगाने का काम करता है, को $325,000 का अनुदान दिया गया था, जिसका उपयोग नाबालिकों के हाथों से शराब छुड़ाने के लिए एक पायलट परियोजना पर 11 कानून प्रवर्तन समूहों के साथ काम करने के लिए किया जा रहा है। मालंबॉर्ग ने कहा कि हालिया अनुपालन जांच पहल का हिस्सा थी और काउंटी में नाबालिग शराबियों और नाबालिग शराब पीने और ड्राइविंग से होने वाली मौतों की संख्या को कम करने के लिए आयोजित की जा रही है। उन पर शराब उपलब्ध कराने वालों को रोकने के लिए भी अभियान चलाया जा रहा है। नेशनल हाईवे ट्रैफिक सेफ्टी एडमिनिस्ट्रेशन के अनुसार, किशोरों में कुल मिलाकर जनसंख्या की तुलना में शराब से संबंधित दुर्घटना में मौत का खतरा अधिक होता है, इस तथ्य के बावजूद कि वे हर राज्य में न्यूनतम शराब पीने की उम्र से कम हैं। 2006 में दुर्घटनाओं में मारे गए 15 से 20 वर्षीय ड्राइवरों में से तैंतीस प्रतिशत ने शराब पी रखी थी। मेन के मादक द्रव्य दुरुपयोग कार्यालय के अनुसार, 2008 के एक राज्यव्यापी सर्वेक्षण में बताया गया कि सातवीं से 12वीं कक्षा तक के मेन के 48.8 प्रतिशत छात्रों ने शराब का सेवन किया था। शोध में यह भी दिखाया गया है कि 15 साल की उम्र से पहले शराब पीना शुरू करने वाले 40 प्रतिशत बच्चे अपने जीवन में किसी न किसी समय शराब के दुरुपयोग या निर्भरता का विकास करेंगे। मालंबॉर्ग ने बताया कि 2006 से 2010 तक मेन में 142 लोगों की मौत एक दुर्घटना के परिणामस्वरूप हुई जिसमें 15 से 20 वर्ष का ड्राइवर शामिल था जिसका रक्त शराब की मात्रा 0.01 या उससे अधिक थी। अकेले 2010 में, मेन में यातायात दुर्घटनाओं में शामिल 15 से 20 वर्ष के 22 प्रतिशत ड्राइवरों का रक्त शराब की मात्रा 0.01 या उससे अधिक थी। मालंबोर्ग ने कहा, "एक युवा व्यक्ति द्वारा किया गया एक लापरवाह निर्णय जीवन को समाप्त कर सकता है और नष्ट कर सकता है।" "हम जानते हैं कि हमें और काम करना है, लेकिन अगर हमारे पास सिर्फ एक किशोर तक पहुँचने का मौका है जो अन्यथा शराब पीने और गाड़ी चलाने के लिए चुनता, तो हमने कुछ हासिल किया है और उम्मीद है कि जीवन बदल गया है। और अगर हम शराब तक उनकी पहुँच को कम करने में सक्षम हैं, यह समस्या के पहले भाग से निपटने जैसा है।" अनुपालन के लिए समन किए गए 13 प्रतिष्ठानों के साथ, अरूस्टोक में अतिरिक्त सड़क गश्त के परिणामस्वरूप युवा परिवहन और शराब रखने के उद्धरण मिले, साथ ही नाबालिगों को उपभोग करने के लिए जगह देने वाले वयस्कों और नाबालिगों को उपभोग करने के लिए शराब के लिए उद्धरण मिले। मालंबॉर्ग के अनुसार, शराब से संबंधित अन्य उल्लंघनों से निपटा गया क्योंकि बढ़ी हुई गश्त का परिणाम ड्राइविंग उल्लंघन से लेकर नशीली दवाओं के उल्लंघन तक था। उन्होंने कहा, ''इस अभियान के लिए स्थानीय प्रवर्तन अधिकारी और सामुदायिक साझेदार एक साथ आए और मेरा मानना ​​है कि यह एक जबरदस्त सफलता थी।'' "उम्मीद है, हमारे समुदाय के किशोर अब जानते हैं कि हम कम उम्र में शराब पीने को बर्दाश्त नहीं करेंगे, और ठीक उसी तरह महत्वपूर्ण रूप से, वयस्क और संगठन जो शराब उपलब्ध कराते हैं, वे जानते हैं कि उन्हें भी गंभीर परिणामों का सामना करना पड़ता है।" यह पहली बार नहीं है कि अनुपालन जांच से पता चला है कि काउंटी के सभी व्यवसाय राज्य के शराब कानूनों को लागू नहीं कर रहे हैं। मार्च 2011 में, शेरिफ विभाग ने एक ऑपरेशन का निरीक्षण किया था जिसमें नाबालिगों ने मैकवाहो से फोर्ट केंट तक 43 व्यवसायों में शराब खरीदने का प्रयास किया था। शेरिफ जिम माडोर के अनुसार, उल्लंघन के लिए प्रतिष्ठानों में से तेईस ने नाबालिगों को शराब बेची और उन्हें समन किया गया। 2010 की गर्मियों के दौरान कैरिबू में, पुलिस विभाग ने 12 स्थानीय व्यवसायों का चयन किया जहां शराब परोसी जाती है। कैरिबू चीफ माइक गहगन के अनुसार, पचास प्रतिशत व्यवसाय परीक्षण में विफल रहे और नाबालिग को शराब बेची। गहगन ने उस समय कहा था कि वह परिणामों से स्तब्ध थे, खासकर इसलिए क्योंकि विभाग शहर के व्यवसायों को मुफ्त में जिम्मेदार पेय प्रशिक्षण प्रदान करता है। सामुदायिक आवाज़ परियोजना प्रबंधक, मिशेल प्लाउर्ड चेस ने शुक्रवार दोपहर कहा कि वह भी परिणामों से निराश हैं। उन्होंने कहा कि जनवरी में किए गए अनुपालन जाँच में लगभग 50 प्रतिशत विफलता दर का पता चला। यह दर इस बार थोड़ी कम है। "मैं चाहती हूं कि एक जादुई बटन होता क्योंकि मैं इसे दबाती हूं," उसने कहा। "हम इस क्षेत्र के व्यवसायों को वर्ष में दो बार प्रशिक्षण देना जारी रखेंगे और हम अनुपालन जांच जारी रखने जा रहे हैं।" परियोजना प्रबंधक ने कहा कि उनका मानना ​​है कि उन व्यवसायों के नामों को तुरंत सूचीबद्ध करना उपयोगी होगा जिन्हें समन किया गया था ताकि माता-पिता और अन्य लोगों को पता चल सके कि उन्हें उद्धृत किया गया था। लेकिन अतीत में मामले अदालत में निपटारे तक कोई भी नाम जारी नहीं किया गया है, और प्लाउर्ड चेस के पास उन व्यवसायों की सूची नहीं है जिन्हें इस दौर की जाँच के दौरान उद्धृत किया गया था। उल्लंघन के लिए दंड के परिणामस्वरूप जुर्माना, लाइसेंस निलंबन या दोनों हो सकते हैं। स्टोर के लिए जुर्माना पहले उल्लंघन के लिए $550 और $1,500 के बीच से शुरू होता है, जो अपराधों की संख्या पर निर्भर करता है। अनुपालन जांच की अगली लहर इस महीने शुरू

सोमवार,26 नवंबर,2012 को प्रसारित --- 11:27 a.m. मेडिसन शहर से प्रेस विज्ञप्ति : यह हॉलिडे रिसाइकिलिंग का समय है। मेडिसन निवासियों के पास अपने धन्यवाद भोज का तेल और गैर-काम कर रहे हॉलिडे लाइटों और एक्सटेंशन कॉर्ड को स्ट्रीट्स डिविजन की ड्रॉप ऑफ साइट्स पर रिसाइकिल करने का मौका है। मेडिसन रिसाइकलिंग समन्वयक जॉर्ज ड्रेकमैन ने कहा, 'हम जानते हैं कि ऐसे कई लोग हैं जिनके पास अपने थैंक्सगिविंग टर्की को फ्राई करने के बाद बहुत सारा तेल बच जाता है।' "हम उन्हें यह जानकर बहुत उत्साहित हैं कि हमारे क्षेत्र में कारों और ट्रकों के लिए उस पुराने कुकिंग ऑयल को ईंधन में बदलने का मौका दे सकेंगे।" अपने कुकिंग ऑयल को रिसाइकिल करने के इच्छुक मेडिसन निवासियों को इसे स्ट्रीट्स डिविजन की दो ड्रॉप ऑफ साइटों में से एक पर लाना होगा। साइटें पश्चिम की ओर 1501 W. बैजर Rd. और पूर्व की ओर 4602 Sycamore Av. पर स्थित हैं। इन दोनों स्थानों पर विशेष कुकिंग ऑयल संग्रह टैंक उपलब्ध हैं। ड्रेकमैन ने कहा, ''हर साल हजारों गैलन पुराने कुकिंग ऑयल को भूभरण में डाल दिया जाता है या नाली में बहा दिया जाता है। जब से हमने अपना कुकिंग ऑयल कार्यक्रम शुरू किया है, हमने हजारों कुकिंग ऑयल को रिकवर किया है। " अब हम इस संसाधन को पुनः प्राप्त कर सकते हैं और इसका उपयोग विदेशी तेल पर हमारी निर्भरता को कम करने और वायु प्रदूषण को कम करने के लिए कर सकते हैं।" कुकिंग ऑयल को 1501 W. बैजर Rd. या 4602 Sycamore Av. पर लाया जाना चाहिए। इसे कचरे के तेल स्थलों पर नहीं ले जाना चाहिए। मेडिसन रिसाइकलिंग समन्वयक जॉर्ज ड्रेकमैन ने कहा, 'हम जानते हैं कि कई निवासी नई ऊर्जा कुशल एलईडी अवकाश रोशनी में बदल रहे हैं और उनके पास बहुत सारे पुराने लाइट स्ट्रिंग हैं जिनका वे निपटान करना चाहेंगे।' ''हमें उन्हें उनकी पुरानी रोशनी के लिए एक रीसाइक्लिंग विकल्प प्रदान करते हुए खुशी हो रही है।'' मेडिसन कार्यक्रम के हिस्से के रूप में किसी भी लाइट स्ट्रिंग के साथ-साथ पुराने एक्सटेंशन कॉर्ड को भी स्वीकार करेगा। बड़े बल्बों वाली पुरानी रोशनी वाले निवासियों को उन बल्बों को हटाने के लिए कहा जाता है। मिनी लाइट्स के तारों से बल्ब हटाने की जरूरत नहीं है। ड्रेकमैन ने कहा, 'हम मेडिसन के अपने इलेक्ट्रॉनिक्स रिसाइकिलर कैस्केड एसेट मैनेजमेंट के माध्यम से सभी पुरानी रोशनी को रिसाइकिल करेंगे।' ''हम साइटों पर रोशनी के लिए विशेष रूप से चिह्नित इलेक्ट्रॉनिक संग्रह कंटेनर रखेंगे।'' बेजर Rd. और सीकैमोर Av. पर साइटें इस सप्ताहांत सुबह 8:30 बजे से दोपहर 4:30 बजे तक खुली रहेंगी। सोमवार से साइटें सुबह 7:30 बजे से शाम 4:30 बजे तक सर्दियों के घंटों के दौरान खुली रहेंगी। स्ट्रीट्स डिविजन के ड्रॉप ऑफ साइट्स के बारे में अधिक जानकारी के लिए www.cityofmadison.com/streets पर जाएँ। ग्रे डिजिटल मीडिया द्वारा डिज़ाइन किया गया

कम्पनी वीटी. ग्राहकों को क्षतिपूर्ति में $81000 देगी मोंटेपेलियर - राज्‍य के वित्‍तीय विनियमन विभाग ने मंगलवार को घोषणा की कि हार्टफोर्ड वित्‍तीय सेवा समूह, वर्मोंट ग्राहकों को $81000 का क्षतिपूर्ति के तौर पर देगा। इन ग्राहकों के ऑटो बीमा के क्‍लेम का सही ढंग से आंकलन नहीं किया गया था। विभाग की एक जांच में यह पता लगा कि हार्टफोर्ड ने जनवरी 2009 से सितंबर 2011 के बीच 77 दावों के लिए वाहन के कुल नुकसान की गलत गणना की थी। प्रतिक्रिया में, हार्टफोर्ड ने नई नीतियों और प्रक्रियाओं के साथ-साथ वर्मोंट दावों को संभालने वाले सभी कर्मचारियों के लिए अनिवार्य प्रशिक्षण लागू करने पर सहमति व्यक्त की है। आयुक्त स्टीव किम्बेल ने कहा कि कंपनी द्वारा सुधारात्‍मक कार्रवाई करने पर वह प्रसन्‍न हैं। किम्बेल ने कहा, "यह हमेशा संतुष्टिदायक होता है जब कोई कंपनी गलत प्रथाओं को स्वीकार करती है और सुधार करने का प्रयास करती है।" विभाग ने कहा कि वह लगभग एक साल में अनुवर्ती जांच करेगा।

22 सितंबर 2011 Facebook पर हो रहे हैं बड़े बदलाव: Timeline और Verbs लगभग 30 मिनट पहले, Facebook के संस्थापक Mark Zuckerberg ने f8 कीनोट स्पीच शुरू की। शनिवार की रात कोधीयन एंडी साम्बर्ग द्वारा पहले 10 मिनट के बेसिर पैर के चुटकुलों को छोड़ दें तो, इसके अलावा Zuckerberg ने ‘Timeline’ कहे जाने वाले प्रोफाइल्स के बड़े नए बदलावों की तस्वीर पेश की। Zuckerberg ने Timeline को इस तरह बयां किया: “आपकी सभी कहानियाँ, आपके सभी एप्स, इसे व्यक्त करने का नया तरीका कि आप कौन हैं।” मोबाइल में इसका एकीकरण भी होगा और इससे मोबाइल से लेकर वेब तक एक सहज यूजर एक्सपीरियन्स तैयार होगा। Timeline को अगले कुछ महीनों में क्रमवार रूप से रोल आउट किया जाएगा और शुरू में यह काफी सामान्य दिखेगा। नई Facebook Timeline अधिक दृश्यमान होगी और इसमें एक ‘कवर’ शामिल होगा जो एक बड़ी इमेज है और दृष्टिगत रूप से "कौन हैं आप" इसे व्यक्त करती है - जो कि प्रोफ़ाइल पिक्चर की जगह नहीं लेता है। जब से यूजर्स Facebook में शामिल हुए हैं, तब से वे अब आर्काइव ऑफ कंटेंट और संवादों को भी आसानी से देख सकते हैं। उन्हें साप्ताहिक या वार्षिक रिपोर्ट्स प्राप्त होंगी, जिससे उन्हें उन इवेंट्स और गतिविधियों का सारांश मिलेगा जो उन्होंने किए हैं। Timeline यूजर को अपनी Timeline पर उसे फ्लैग करने के लिए किसी महत्वपूर्ण इवेंट, अपडेट या कंटेंट के हिस्से को विशिष्ट रूप से हाइलाइट करने की सुविधा भी देगा। Facebook ने पिछला साल Open Graph प्रोटोकॉल के विकास में मेहनत की है, उनका मानना है कि इससे पहले की आधी ‘सोशल क्लास’ की तरह एप्स के बिल्कुल नए बनाने का रास्ता खुलेगा। Open Graph दो अतिरिक्त क्षेत्रों के लिए खुलेगा। अब इस समय यह संचार और गेम और अब मीडिया (TV, music, movies, news और books) और लाइफस्टाइल एप्स (cooking, eat, emotions, fashion, fitness आदि) के लिए खुलेगा। एक ऐसी घोषणा जिसकी सराहना के लिए श्रोताओं ने लगभग तालियाँ बजाईं, यह थी कि यूजर किसी एप से जुड़ सकते हैं और दोबारा कभी भी ऑथोराइज़ करने के लिए पॉप अप नहीं होगा और दोबारा अपने न्यूज़ फ़ीड पर शेयर करना चाहते हैं या नहीं, पूछने के लिए पॉप अप नहीं होगा। Timeline और एप्स के नए एकीकरण के साथ, यह अनुमान लगाया जाएगा कि यदि आप कोई एप इस्तेमाल करना चाहते हैं तो आप अपनी Timeline पर इसे प्रकाशित करना चाहते हैं, जिसे Zuckerberg "frictionless experience" कह रहे हैं। f8 के बाद सीधे Open Graph के माध्यम से डेवलपर्स 'add to Timeline' बटन को लागू कर पाएँगे, जो सभी प्लेटफॉर्म्स पर तुरंत काम करेगा। Ticker विशेषता आपको दोस्तों के साथ खास तौर पर जब बात संगीत की हो तो, "serendipitous experience" रखने की भी सुविधा देती है। संस्थापक ने दिखाया कि Open Graph 和 music social network Spotify के साथ, आप दोस्तों के साथ सुन सकते हैं; आप Ticker फ़ीड में देखते हैं कि आपका दोस्त James Morrison के नए सिंगल Up की सुन रहा है, आप केवल अलर्ट पर होवर कर सकते हैं और सुन सकते हैं। लॉन्च पार्टनर iHeartRadio के साथ भी यही होगा। Facebook ने क्रियाओं को जोड़ने की भी घोषणा की है तो आप ‘read a book’ या ‘watch a movie’ कर पाएँगे। f8 में सेमिनार का एक पूरा दिन अभी भी बाकी है, लेकिन मुझे कुछ बुनाई और खाना खाने के लिए जाना है। पूरे दिन की गतिविधियों को पचाने के बाद मैं कल फिर ब्लॉग करूँगा। f8 कॉन्फ्रेस के पहले Facebook ने News Feed में बदलाव किए 22 सितंबर, 2011 को दोपहर 02:50 बजे जबसे जुलाई में Google+ लॉन्च हुआ है, तबसे Facebook अपने fu में नियमित रूप से बदलाव करते दिखाई दे रहा है...और पढ़ें» क्या Facebook के लिए प्यार कम हो रहा है? 24 अगस्त, 2011 को सुबह 11:55 बजे क्या Facebook अब बहुत बड़ा माना जा रहा है? समाज के तौर पर हम किसी के पीछे तब तक खड़े रहते हैं जब तक कि वे on...और पढ़ें» नीचे दिए गए URL का उपयोग करके इस ब्लॉग पोस्ट को ट्रैक करें

Need a good browser CSS editor - where I can save the stylesheet. I just came across Stylebot for Chrome. Its pretty awesome, except I dont think it allows you to save the stylesheet to your local disk after making changes. Can somebody refer me to a CSS editor that allows you to save stylesheets? You can use NotePad++ to save files as .css files. Style sheets should be universal for any browser. I'd stay away from anything slanted toward one browser or another. good thinking! lol I used to have a browser css editor that had the feature to save the stylesheets. I didnt even think to simply just open a notepad or blank document and copy+paste to create my own stylesheets. Users Browsing this Thread There are currently 1 users browsing this thread.

February 21, 2013 Client May Discharge Attorney But Contingent Fee Remains Earned The Rhode Island Supreme Court affirmed the grant of summary judgment to an attorney in a suit for fees against a former client. The attorney had represented the client in actions against her late father's estate for a 15% contingency fee. After the claim was reduced to settlement, the attorney collected his fees as payments were recovered. The client later discharged the attorney and claimed no obligation to continue to pay. The court found that the attorney's rights under the contingent fee agreement had fully vested when the underlying claim was settled. Although the client was free to discharge the attorney, such action "does not alter his entitlement to fees already earned."

USGS hyrdologists take measurements of the river's "flow rate." ST. LOUIS (KSDK) - The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers continues to project that the commercial navigation channel on the Mississippi River will remain open between St. Louis, Mo. and Cairo, Ill. The removal of rock obstructions and recent water releases from the Corps' Carlyle Lake in Illinois have improved the forecast for the Mid-Mississippi River. Current work on the river will address areas that will have the most immediate impact on the navigation channel, with additional rock removal planned for later this year. "We believe we will deepen the channel ahead of the worst-case river stage scenario, and I remain confident that navigation will continue," said Maj. Gen. John Peabody, Mississippi Valley Division Commander. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is in constant communication with the U.S. Coast Guard and the river industry regarding water levels throughout the Mississippi River Basin.

Some of us can recall the helpless feeling of being in a vehicle driven by someone who is intoxicated. If you're like me, you don't want to cause a scene unless the driving is really erratic. But there comes a moment when you need to say: Stop the car. You're going to hurt someone. Hand over the keys. We have a political system that is the equivalent of a drunk driver. The primary culprits are the House Republicans. They are so intoxicated with their own ideology that they are ready to drive the nation's car off the road. I don't know if the sequestration that began Friday will produce a little crisis or a big one; the sad fact is that the Republicans don't know either, yet they're still willing to put the country at risk to make a political point. I'm no fan of the way President Obama has handled the fiscal crisis. As I've written often, he needs to provide the presidential leadership that leads Congress and the country toward fiscal stability. In my analogy, he should take the steering wheel firmly in hand and drive the car toward the destination where most road maps show we need to be heading — namely, a balanced program of cuts in Social Security and Medicare and modest increases in revenue. Instead, Obama has chosen to be co-dependent, as the psychologists say about those who foster the destructive behavior of others. He double-dared the reckless Republicans by proposing the sequester back in 2011. And rather than stepping up to leadership since his re-election, he has triple-dared the GOP hotheads with a partisan inaugural address and weeks of what the Republicans rightly have called a "road show" of blame-game politics. Doesn't he see that the GOP is addicted to this showdown at Thunder Road? This is all the power the GOP has these days, really — the ability to scare the heck out of everybody and run the car into the ditch. Much as I would criticize Obama, it's wrong to say that both sides are equally to blame for what's about to hit us. This isn't a one-off case of the Republicans using Obama's sequestration legislation to force reckless budget cuts. It's a pattern of behavior: First the Republicans were prepared to shut down the government and damage the national credit rating with their showdown over the debt ceiling; then they were careening toward the "fiscal cliff." This isn't a legislative tactic anymore, it's an addiction. Where did this recklessness come from? Only a few years ago, George W. Bush was the compassionate conservative and John McCain won the GOP nomination as the Republican who knew how to govern across party lines. What happened to that Republican Party? Today's Republicans seem to suffer from what's sometimes known as Obama Derangement Syndrome, in which their hatred of the president blinds them to the country's interests. To be honest, this malady is eerily similar to the Bush Derangement Syndrome that afflicted Democrats during the previous decade. The Democrats were so incensed back then they stopped caring if America succeeded or failed in Iraq; the Republicans are so angry now that they don't care if the economy goes to hell. So how can we get these incapacitated drivers to stop before they do any more damage? If this were really a case of chronic drinkers, the answer would be an intervention to keep them off the road. In politics, the public gets to intervene through elections. We just had one, and the Republicans lost, big time. Yet it didn't seem to make much difference. The House Republicans are still grabbing for the wheel and the car is rumbling toward trouble. Obama tries everything to gain control — except a clear, firm presidential statement that speaks to everyone onboard, those who voted for him and those who didn't — that could get the country where it needs to go. The weird thing is that, politics aside, there is every reason to be optimistic about America's future. The country's financial markets are resilient; the housing slump finally seems to be ending; a new era of low-cost shale oil and gas is beginning and, as a result, the U.S. is becoming a competitive manufacturing economy again. There's one ruinously dysfunctional part of the American story, and that's the breakdown of our political system. It's time for an intervention, to take the keys away.

Lake Orion, Mich. – Part of defending champion Olin Browne’s preparation for the 2012 U.S. Senior Open will be competing in the U.S. Open at The Olympic Club. In addition to negotiating Olympic’s ubiquitous slopes and confounding doglegs, Browne hopes to be distracted by following the progress of his son, Olin Jr. “O” – as Browne calls his son – is attempting to join his father at a U.S. Open sectional qualifier in Columbus, Ohio, on June 4. Several days before the qualifier, dad still didn’t know whether he would go watch. “It’s a difficult position to be in,” said the elder Browne at Senior Open Media Day on May 30. “I don’t want to show up and put that kind of heat on him. On the one hand, it’s nice to support for your kid. Whether I’m there or not, he knows that, I love him and support him and I’m pulling for him to do the very best he can.” If the younger Olin qualifies, the Brownes will be the first father-son duo to play together in the U.S. Open since Jay and Bill Haas achieved the rare feat in 2003 and 2004. “It would be unbelievable,” said Browne Sr. “He’s thinking about it; he knows I’m thinking about it. He’s got probably a one in 10 chance of making it. So it’s up to him to prepare himself properly. It’s part of the learning process.” If there is anyone who could impart good advice about sectional qualifying, it would be the elder Browne, who shot 59 at Woodmont Country Club in Rockville, Md., to advance to the 2005 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina. Qualifying presents one set of challenges; the championship itself offers others. Despite having the type of controlled game that would seem like a perfect fit for the U.S. Open, Browne’s performance in the championship – one top-10 finish in 11 starts – was less successful. He has fared much better since turning 50, and has yet to finish out of the top 10 in three U.S. Senior Opens, capped by last year’s victory. This delayed success is fitting for the late bloomer, who didn’t pick up the game until he was 19. Browne didn’t play his first U.S. Open until he was 35, but has felt comfortable on golf’s biggest stage. “Overall, the USGA setup is fairly consistent, in which every facet of the game is a component of good play” said Browne. “You have to drive the ball well, strike irons consistently, control ball flight, play smart and manage your game well. It’s more of a marathon.” After getting a glimpse of Indianwood Golf & Country Club, the site of the 2012 U.S. Senior Open, Browne came away with a similar sense of comfort that he possessed last year at Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio. “The course is sensational,” said Browne. “I love these kinds of greens that are open in the front.” Last year, Browne withheld a charge from Mark O’Meara by playing the final 10 holes in one under. It was the culmination of a journey that began when he was just starting to learn the game at the driving range accompanied by his girlfriend – now wife – and they would daydream about winning the national championship. “We’d talk about the U.S. Open,” Browne recalled. “We didn’t talk about the PGA or the Masters or the [British] Open Championship. It was always the last hole of the U.S. Open. That was my reference point.” Now that dream has become reality, Browne is relishing his status and basking in the benefits his victory has borne, such as the rare opportunity to potentially share an indelible U.S. Open memory with his son. “Here we are, 11 months later, and [the U.S. Senior Open win] still has legs,” said Browne. “It’s a source of great pride and it’s a privilege to be seen as a USGA champion.” Hunki Yun is a USGA senior staff writer.

John 10:26-27 "26 But you don't believe me because you are not part of my flock. 27 My sheep recognize my voice; I know them, and they follow me."Observation: Nabal was a fool with a beautiful and smart wife (I know what you're thinking here... that could be me at times ;). Even though David has protected him and his servants and flocks, he insults David and his men. David is ready to take vengeance in his own hands, if it wasn't for the sensible Abigail. Today's verse in Proverbs 15:21 says: "Foolishness brings joy to those who have no sense; a sensible person stays on the right path."This verse very much applied to Nabal and Abigail! What struck me in this passage is the fact that Abigail is ready to leave all her wealth behind and become the wife of a chased-after ragtag band leader. How can that be? Well, Abigail recognizes that David is God's chosen shepherd. She recognizes that he will lead the LORD's people and become the chief-shepherd of His flock. As Jesus says in John 10: "My sheep recognize my voice", so Abigail recognizes God's voice through David and wants to follow him. I want to become sensible like Abigail, to recognize the voice of the Shepherd in the midst of a dire situation. I want to be forward looking to the time when he will come back to earth a second time, to judge the Nabals of this world, and to gather his flock to take part in the wedding feast. Dear Heavenly Father, give me 'sense' like Abigail had, and help me to avoid the foolishness and selfishness that Nabal displayed. I want to hear your voice and follow you alone. In Jesus Name, the chief Shepherd. Amen. Today Pentecost is celebrated across the world, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. I pray that you may be filled with a holy fire that truly transforms your life. Have a great week.

Marine Science Program, (Majors: Zoology and Marine Biology), University of Western Australia. 2006-2008 Master of Science in Ecology and Evolution, (MSc. Ecology and Evolution), University of Bern, Switzerland. Thesis title: ‘Ecological requirements of the threatened Ortolan bunting Emberiza hortulana in temperate Europe (Swiss Alps) and in the Mediterranean (Catalonia)’. Supervisor: Prof. Raphaël Arlettaz. Title: Landscape ecology and conservation genetics of a rare, sexually deceptive orchid and its obligate pollinator University: School of Plant Biology, University of Western Australia Supervisors: Prof. Kingsley Dixon, Prof. Rod Peakall (ANU), and Prof. Raphael Didham (UWA) Project description: Conservation of complex ecosystems and threatened species requires a detailed understanding of their ecology. Since it is often difficult in highly endemic floras with large numbers of threatened species, such as the Southwest Australian Floristic Region (SWAFR), to research conservation of all threatened species, one approach is to concentrate effort on a model species. Here, we use Drakaea elastica, a nationally threatened, sexually deceptive orchid endemic to the Swan Coastal Plain, Western Australia. The aim of this project is to determine the multi-scale habitat requirements of D. elastica, along with that of its obligate thynnid wasp pollinator, Zaspilothynnus gilesi. This will be complimented by an investigation of population genetics of D. elastica. In addition, a mark-recapture study on Z. gilesi will yield information on movements and vital rates of the wasp, which in turn can affect gene-flow of D. elastica. This research will allow the compilation of a habitat suitability model to guide conservation, such as the designation of protected areas. 8.

Well you people don't live here. Bad enough we have to hear what a debacle of a season we are having. But if we lose to the Clowns twice, thats an embarrassment. If you want the Steelers to lose, anytime you are not a true fan. Cleveland Browns suck! I want to see the young guys too. So, starting dl should be heyward McClendon and Woods. Lb's should be Worilds, Sylvester and whoever else. CB's should be Brown and the backups S's Golden and Allen. The offense should sit Ben, Brown, Pouncey, Miller, and Starks if Adams is healthy. We have a lot of FA decisions this off season. sent from my Galaxy SIII using tapatalk 2 Basically you guys nailed it on the head ...young guys please ... I'm really interested in Sylvester ... I've always liked him and thought he could take away the need for the other ILB ... guess either I was wrong or like usual the DL defense is to complicated for 2-3 year players to get some time to prove what they have??? I would even go as far as releasing somebody and signing the QB Johnson we had in the pre season and let him play the last game ... see what he has Our feeling are still hurt because of this season, so there is a lot of emotion out here. . .Simple, last game of the year and potentially the last time we will see Hampton, Foote, Wallace/Sanders, Lewis, Mendenhall, Kiesel and Harrison in a Steelers uniform. This is Cleveland; let's just go out there and kick their Brown Stained a$$es all over Heinz field. End the season on a positive and hope that the GM and ownership make the necessary changes to make sure this underachieving season was simply a case of bad diarreah. Remember, if the Steelers go out and crap the sheets, this will stew in our bellies for upwards of 8 months. . .I'd rather end the season on a positive note. Tomlin, Lebeau and all the coaches are about to have some uncomfortable meetings in the next couple of weeks with management and that is precisely what we all want. The Steeler way...is the only way. Well, seeing as how they will be without Trent Richardson and their starting QB will be Thaddeus Lewis, I say I'd like to see them not score lol. Don't recognize Thaddeus Lewis' name? Oh he was the coveted undrafted QB out of Duke in 2010 by the Rams. He's never played a regular season game and has spent his career on the Rams' and Browns' practice squad. I hope they don't rest any starters. I'd like to see what the defense can dial up against the likes of Thaddeus Lewis lol. A lot of stains on the ground. Not ours. And their fans. Why get a better draft pick? So we can pick a stud pass rusher and watch him sit for three years because LeBeau's defense is too hard? There are currently 1 users browsing this thread.

"Don't Stop Believing" has a whole different feel at the end of Glee than it did at the end of The Sopranos [More:]I got unexpectedly misty during the Glee finale. It's a great arrangement of the song. After years of thinking I only had Journey's greatest hits for cheesy nostalgia purposes I think I realized during the finale that it's just a great song. Then there are the cliches: the squabbling kids pulling together as a team, the evocative arm gestures. Finally, after acting like a bitch most of the episode, the female lead singer has a strong voice and looks at the male lead like she loves him. The song sold me on the show.

Barbara Ehrenreich – a Situationist Posted by The Situationist Staff on October 14, 2009 From a related Time Magazine article here’s a brief sample of her writing on the topic of optimism. * * * If you’re craving a quick hit of optimism, reading a news magazine is probably not the best way to go about finding it. As the life coaches and motivational speakers have been trying to tell us for more than a decade now, a healthy, positive mental outlook requires strict abstinence from current events in all forms. Instead, you should patronize sites like Happynews.com, where the top international stories of the week include “Jobless Man Finds Buried Treasure” and “Adorable ‘Teacup Pigs’ Are Latest Hit with Brits.” Or of course you can train yourself to be optimistic through sheer mental discipline. Ever since psychologist Martin Seligman crafted the phrase “learned optimism” in 1991 and started offering optimism training, there’s been a thriving industry in the kind of thought reform that supposedly overcomes negative thinking. You can buy any number of books and DVDs with titles like Little Gold Book of YES! Attitude, in which you will learn mental exercises to reprogram your outlook from gray to the rosiest pink: “affirmations,” for example, in which you repeat upbeat predictions over and over to yourself; “visualizations” in which you post on your bathroom mirror pictures of that car or boat you want; “disputations” to refute any stray negative thoughts that may come along. If money is no object, you can undergo a three-month “happiness makeover” from a life coach or invest $3,575 for three days of “optimism training” on a Good Mood Safari on the coast of New South Wales. . . . * * * Americans have long prided themselves on being “positive” and optimistic — traits that reached a manic zenith in the early years of this millennium. Iraq would be a cakewalk! The Dow would reach 36,000! Housing prices could never decline! Optimism was not only patriotic, it was a Christian virtue, or so we learned from the proliferating preachers of the “prosperity gospel,” whose God wants to “prosper” you. In 2006, the runaway bestseller The Secret promised that you could have anything you wanted, anything at all, simply by using your mental powers to “attract” it. The poor listened to upbeat preachers like Joel Osteen and took out subprime mortgages. The rich paid for seminars led by motivational speakers like Tony Robbins and repackaged those mortgages into securities sold around the world. . . . * * * Below are some excerpts from the introduction of her new book explaining that, optimism notwithstanding, Americans are not necessarily better off. * * * Surprisingly, when psychologists undertake to measure the relative happiness of nations, they routinely find that Americans are not, even in prosperous times and despite our vaunted positivity, very happy at all. A recent meta-analysis of over a hundred studies of self-reported happiness worldwide found Americans ranking only twenty-third, surpassed by the Dutch, the Danes, the Malaysians, the Bahamians, the Austrians, and even the supposedly dour Finns. In another potential sign of relative distress, Americans account for two-thirds of the global market for antidepressants, which happen also to be the most commonly prescribed drugs in the United States. To my knowledge, no one knows how antidepressant use affects people’s responses to happiness surveys: do respondents report being happy because the drugs make them feel happy or do they report being unhappy because they know they are dependent on drugs to make them feel better? Without our heavy use of antidepressants, Americans would likely rank far lower in the happiness rankings than we currently do. When economists attempt to rank nations more objectively in terms of “well-being,” taking into account such factors as health, environmental sustainability, and the possibility of upward mobility, the United States does even more poorly than it does when only the subjective state of “happiness” is measured. The Happy Planet Index, to give just one example, locates us at 150th among the world’s nations. * * * But of course it takes the effort of positive thinking to imagine that America is the “best” or the “greatest.” Militarily, yes, we are the mightiest nation on earth. But on many other fronts, the American score is dismal, and was dismal even before the economic downturn that began in 2007. Our children routinely turn out to be more ignorant of basic subjects like math and geography than their counterparts in other industrialized nations. They are also more likely to die in infancy or grow up in poverty. Almost everyone acknowledges that our health care system is “broken” and our physical infrastructure crumbling. We have lost so much of our edge in science and technology that American companies have even begun to outsource their research and development efforts. Worse, some of the measures by which we do lead the world should inspire embarrassment rather than pride: We have the highest percentage of our population incarcerated, and the greatest level of inequality in wealth and income. We are plagued by gun violence and racked by personal debt. While positive thinking has reinforced and found reinforcement in American national pride, it has also entered into a kind of symbiotic relationship with American capitalism. There is no natural, innate affinity between capitalism and positive thinking. In fact, one of the classics of sociology, Max Weber’s Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, makes a still impressive case for capitalism’s roots in the grim and punitive outlook of Calvinist Protestantism, which required people to defer gratification and resist all pleasurable temptations in favor of hard work and the accumulation of wealth. But if early capitalism was inhospitable to positive thinking, “late” capitalism, or consumer capitalism, is far more congenial, depending as it does on the individual’s hunger for more and the firm’s imperative of growth. The consumer culture encourages individuals to want more — cars, larger homes, television sets, cell phones, gadgets of all kinds — and positive thinking is ready at hand to tell them they deserve more and can have it if they really want it and are willing to make the effort to get it. Meanwhile, in a competitive business world, the companies that manufacture these goods and provide the paychecks that purchase them have no alternative but to grow. If you don’t steadily increase market share and profits, you risk being driven out of business or swallowed by a larger enterprise. Perpetual growth, whether of a particular company or an entire economy, is of course an absurdity, but positive thinking makes it seem possible, if not ordained. In addition, positive thinking has made itself useful as an apology for the crueler aspects of the market economy. If optimism is the key to material success, and if you can achieve an optimistic outlook through the discipline of positive thinking, then there is no excuse for failure. The flip side of positivity is thus a harsh insistence on personal responsibility: if your business fails or your job is eliminated, it must because you didn’t try hard enough, didn’t believe firmly enough in the inevitability of your success. As the economy has brought more layoffs and financial turbulence to the middle class, the promoters of positive thinking have increasingly emphasized this negative judgment: to be disappointed, resentful, or downcast is to be a “victim” and a “whiner.” * * * For a sample of related Situationist posts, see “Self-Serving Biases,” “The Motivated Situation of Inequality and Discrimination,” “Thanksgiving as “System Justification”?,” “Cheering for the Underdog,” “Ayn Rand’s Dispositionism: The Situation of Ideas,” “Deep Capture – Part X,” “Promoting Dispositionism through Entertainment – Part I, Part II, & Part III,” “The Unconscious Situation of our Consciousness – Part IV,” and “The (Unconscious) Situation of our Consciousness – Part III.”

PARKERSBURG - Despite the economic downturn of the past few years and rising and falling fuel prices each year, local officals believe local tourism has responded positively for the most part. The summer season in the Mid-Ohio Valley includes a variety of pubic events, tourism locations and other activities for people living in the local area and those visiting from elsewhere. Attendance has remained generally positive for events like the area homecoming festivals, fairs and other events, while attractions like Blennerhassett Island Historical State Park continue to see people interested in visiting. Despite rising and falling gasoline prices over the last few years, local tourism attractions and events have reported positive attendance and are looking forward to a good summer this year. Matthew Baker recently was named as the new superintendent for Blennerhassett Island Historical State Park. Baker spent the last two years as superintendent of Cooper's Rock State Park near Morgantown and spent the five years prior to that as assistant superintendent at Blennerhassett Island. From his own experiences, Baker believes increases in fuel costs have actually brought about increases in attendance and usage at the local state parks. In both locations over the past four years, he said he saw fewer out-of-state visitors making use of the parks, but that was offset by an increased usage by in-state residents and those who live in the immediate region. Baker believes the "stay-cation" trend of the last several years is continuing. "Not only are state parks close to home, they offer very economical activities," he said, citing camping as the most common example. In his last two years at Cooper's Rock, which offers camping, Baker said he saw a lot of return visitors, but also saw a lot of new people who have turned away from long-distance vacations to see what is available in their home territory and are giving it a try. Teresa Turner, executive director of the Belpre Area Chamber of Commerce which organizes the Belpre Homecoming Festival, said she has been finding that people aren't traveling as far, so they are more interested in finding out what is available to do within their local communities and regions. "We haven't really noticed anything being down due to gas prices," she said. This year's Belpre Homecoming will be Aug. 2-4 at Civitan Park in Belpre. Turner said attendance has remained positive for the event, even when the economic downturn was at its worst locally about three years ago. While the general recovery has been slow, Turner is expecting that positive trend to continue this year during the summer tourism season. "I think it's going to be a fantastic year," she said of this year's homecoming. Mark Lewis, president of the Greater Parkersburg Convention and Visitors Bureau, said he hasn't seen any specific trends regarding the impact of fuel prices on local tourism and he doesn't think there is enough data at this point. However, one piece of data involving increased hotel stays in the area does seem to be a positive indicator for the local area. Lewis said the CVB reported there were 17,174 room nights reported for this May compared to 16,289 for May 2011. Year-to-date, room nights through the end of May were 71,122 compared to 64,944 last year, a 9.51 percent increase year to date. Since the downturn has been going on for four years, Lewis thinks people are adjusting to the prices. He believes there is a lot of pent-up demand for travel for many people and at this point thinks people are more willing to make travel plans with less concern about fuel costs and similar issues than the past few years. He is optimistic due to the increased room sales for the local season. "We're looking forward to a positive tourism season," Lewis said.

Many of you reading this are over the age of 27. Why is this important you ask, well of late Gaila and I have been trying hostels to save money. I think the average age is about 22 to 25 but who knows. Haven’t really asked, just observing. But safe to say I have definitely been one of the more “seasoned” guests at all the ones we have stayed at. You know what? Who cares! Truth is we have had very nice stays. Just like we have couchsurfing, camping and cheap hotels. I must admit, some of the hotel stays have been less than pleasant. Some down right disgusting to be perfectly honest. Part of The Bad, if you will. While writing this I am curled up in a hammock on the Pacific Ocean hugging the Nicaraguan coast just west of Leon. We are doing a weekend stay here at Quartzal Playa Hostel http://playa.quetzaltrekkers.org/ after two awesome nights at Lazybones Hostel http://www.lazyboneshostelnicaragua.com/?lg=En in Leon. I really am liking the vibe. Not only do we have clean and functional rooms, but we are getting for well under $30 for private rooms. If you are willing to do the dorm thing, most are in the $7 to $15 dollars a night range. Best of all however are the locations and the facilities. In Leon it was all about location, patio and pool. Here it is the garden, hammocks and ocean waves. Yes, we change the age curve, but who cares! Most of you are young at heart too and can get a dose of youthful enthusiasm from the 20 something guests. We are. We did a couple in the US and they were fine, but I think our expectations were wrong. Now that we are south of the border these relaxed accommodations seem to fit right in. Now, before you think everyone is wet behind the ears, that is simply not true. Last night we shared the Lazybones with a few German couples that were definitely in their late 50′s or 60′s. Even a family with a small 1 1/2 year old baby were there with us. They, like us were in the private rooms. Our motorcycle friends Mark from Idaho on KLR, Marco from Canada on F650GS single and Pedro from Redmond https://www.facebook.com/pages/Redmond-to-Rio/523014447726275 with his Vstrom DL1000 all elected to do the dorms and save even more money. Since you can’t sleep together those are not the best options for us. Four things impress me about the hostel experience: 1. Better than expected rooms 2. Super friendly people excited to have interesting conversations (not to mention Gringos) 3. Cheap food and beverages 4. They are well connected with the locals and can set you up with good tours, adventures & etc. OK, 5 things…just a general sense of happiness and well being. Yes it is true most are backpacking, but even the older folks we met in Honduras and here too all seem to have the same zest for life and inquisitive souls. As such, my advice is this: If you are young hurry up and get out there as the world is waiting for you. If you are middle aged and strapped for cash at the moment and who isn’t, then just go this budget route you will be happy you did. Indeed, at the moment I am sitting between a 30 something couple from North Carolina, 20 somethings from Germany and some 50ish ladies from somewhere TBD. If you are perhaps retired, use this as a way to stretch your financial resources and get a shot of youthful enthusiasm at the same time. All of the hostel hosts have been super gracious and very helpful. Telling us about hidden gems like Canyon Somoto and others. Today is yet another day in paradise and I sure am looking forward to our tree house hostel near Granada. After that, we will be looking for our next deal on Isla de Ometepe (a two volcano island in the middle of Lake Nicaragua) then Costa Rica and Panama! Oooooops, almost forgot to mention hostel in Honduras which is sort of a hotel/hostel/brewery. Seriously, if you get a chance go to D&D Brewery. What a unique place and Bobbie the guy that owns and runs is really excellent. Here are some that we have stayed at so far and can fully endorse & recommend: Lastly, Lonely Planet is full of good suggestions that have been pretty spot on as far as we are concerned. Travel well, with or without lots of money.

Companies do sometime make bad decisions. One of the worse bad decision it might bet the company on something that did not pay off. It is part of the risk companies take. However, when it involves selling off part of the business that you are famous and in the lead for because it is dull and to pursue more sexy business that the company is not in the lead, that will not be sound decision. One knows one is doing it if there is a lot of opposition or surprise when one announces the decision. I call this selling off the crown jewels. So far, of the three examples I heard of in the tech industry, two failed, and one is not doing as well as it would. The first example is Marconi. It decided to sell its defense and wireless equipment business to concentrate on the telecommunication business. That was made at the height of dot-com boom and almost tanked the company when it burst. Today we have the second example in HP. When one thinks of HP, one thinks of its test equipment business mainly, followed by electronic parts business. Computers? Not in a million years. When Fiorina tried to sell off the crown jewel to concentrate on computers. That shocked a lot of people. It met opposition from at least one descendent of the company’s founder. Unfortunately for HP, it happened. Today, we heard that it is throwing away the computer business to concentrate on the IT business. That’s a sad situation for a company that sold its crown jewel. Probably the only lucky thing is the spin out company that got HP’s crown jewels, Agilent Technology, is still a leader in the field. The example that is not doing that well is Motorola. It’s well known for its semiconductor business. Telecommunication equipment? We know it exists but a world leader? No. After the spin off the business to Freescale Semiconductor to concentrate on telecommunication, Motorola’s finances were up and down. Unlike Marconi or HP, at least it has its high moment when Motorola Razr was the rage and the spinning off of its crown jewels looks like it might be paying off. Today, like the other two, it is a shadow of itself, having split itself yet again and sold the mobile business to Google recently. The new, diminished HP and Motorola now wants to emulate IBM by concentrating on business computing solution. That field of business computing, i.e., the place I lump consultancy, software writing and large scale computing equipment purchase together, seems to be a favourite dumping ground for companies past its former glory. Incidentally, in case you are asking, IBM did not sell off its crown jewels, it simply lose it to competition.

Aren't we all just loving the grief that the FTC is giving Kinder Morgan? This is causing a huge readjustment of assets and debt and making us all nervous. Reminds me of my retirement last year.... I just had to walk away from the work world and leave it up to the younger people to figure it all out now. So let all of them and the regulators do the hasseling about this and let us know in about another year or 2 how it turns out. America seems to have fallen in love with regulation, or at least they voted for it in 2008. Makes us wonder why we started this whole purchase of El Paso in the first place....adding and subtracting assets and debt all over the country. Regulation is just wonderful. And to other posters about the GP taking 50% of the cash flow and then we get the other 50%: we get the declared distribution rate and that's the deal that we pay for. Love it or leave it. If Kmp was selling at half the price, we would then be getting the same rate on our investment as double that 50%. So the fault is the current purchase price....it gives a distributon rate of about 6%. But most anybody knows that the standard rate of return on most business including pipelines is above 10%. Limited partners in our case only get the declared agreed rate depending upon when we purchased the shares. further, on acceptable distribution rate, if you had bought Kmp like I began doing in 2009 when it was below 50, you would now be getting over 10% rate of return on your investment, more with reinvested shares. That is why the analysts have been saying lately that it is the future growth rate of the rate of pay out that will make the biggest difference in your stock shares. Regulations are a neccessary evil. No one likes them, but we can't have a society without them. Would you like Nuclear Industry without NRC? Don't forget defunding of regulatory oversight was the cause of Credit Default Swaps run amock. Look at it as a cost of doing business, you pay for Insurance not because you want to collect on it, but because things happen when there is no one monitoring. Many died operating Boilers till ASME framed rules and regulations, how would you feel if there was no EPA and chemicals dumped to pollute your groundwater. Sadly, we hear the negatives of how regulators prevented progress, but we never hear the catastrophe they prevent. Republicans love to criticise regulations I consider them opportunistic by telling you they do nothing. have we not had enough BANK and FINANCIAL disasters yet? The difference between the Russian nuclear explosion, the Japanese nuclear meltdowns, and Three Mile Island meltdown is levels of regulation. And even though the US meltdown ended OK, the regulations were increased and will continue to be. Some regs. like the diesel exhaust go too far too fast and industry can't keep up. Diesel cars were pulled from the market and Navistar still has to pay a fine for each new engine it ships until they find a fix to meet the new regs. I've heard little data was used to set the exact level picked. If you are a gas producer in the Rockies and want to ship your gas to distant markets, you'd have three main choices: Rockies Express, CIG, or Ruby. All currently owned by Kinder Morgan. Antitrust laws have been on the books for over 100 years, and would have dictated the same result if KMI's situation had arisen 50 years ago. Don't blame current government. Thank Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, etc. Richard Kinder never thought for one moment that certain asset dispositions would not be necessary regarding the EP acquisition.

Why? A 30% short term gain isn't enough? Bulls make money; bears make money; pigs get slaughtered. Any idiot who sold is just that. Did anyone notice how much money the company actually made? Brown is doing what he gets paid to do; err on the side of caution. This is a short sellers manipulation, I wouldn't be surprised if the stock recovers at least $2 from its lows today by the close, and will be back to close to 60 by the end of next month. BTW, I bought 10,000 shares of MSI after the split. I'm not selling. I'm buying. A friend of mine who works at the SEC said more Wall Street thugs will be going to jail. I expect the GS analyst who trashed HP yesterday to be indicted within 6 months. See this story for evidence that the feds are cracking down, and cracking down HARD! Actually I bought 25,000 shares of HPQ at $14/share. I'm far ahead. But GS is a house full of currupt analysts and execs who eventually will get what's coming to them. JAIL TIME! Instead, buy HPQ. GS recommends sell of Hewlett Packard. Do the oppositie of what GS recommends. Their clients do. I just called a friend of mine at the SEC and asked her to investigate the analysts and executives at Goldman Sachs for possible insider trading regarding their downgrade today of HPQ to see how many of their clients and friends sold short the stock the last few weeks. My bet is that several people made a ton of money by recently shorting the stock. She is passing my request to the highest levels given today's precipitous drop. It's time that the fraudsters at Goldman stop getting slaps on the wrist for their illegal behavior, and start spending a decade or more in prison for their corruption. Watch for business news in the coming weeks. If you suspect insider trading, write or call the SEC today with your suspicions. It will expedite matters. I'm now back at 100,000 shares with an average price of 1.04. Here's how it works. You load up with as much as you can at around 1.00/share, and you unload it all at around 1.25.share. There's a pattern here. Every time the stock drops to a dollar/share or less, buyers like me come in. The stock gets pumped to around 1.30 or so, and we get out with a nice 25% gain. So' I've flip this stock 3 times now for $25k gains each time. It's a classic pump and dump stock. Don't EVER expect it to perform like a real company. It isn't. Yes, they make stuff; but only to make it lopk like a legitimate company. It's nothing more than a stock to play with. Buy now. Sell at 1.25. Have fun. I am. Watch today's shareholders meeting. There a chance some director's heads will roll. If so, HPQ could be up 10-15% tomorrow! There is nothing better than shareholder activism!

Jewish World Review August 30, 2002 / 22 Elul, 5762 http://www.NewsAndOpinion.com | If you haven't seen enough footage of the Twin Towers coming down, if you haven't heard enough back-stories of the people who were killed, if you haven't watched enough rock and roll singers and movie stars paying their respects, if you haven't cried enough tears, then stay tuned ... this coming September 11th is for you. There will be memorials...lots of memorials. Every radio and television channel will be honoring those who died last year. The networks will be doing 9-11 shows all day and all night. The cable channels will be going around the clock too. Every single station will be doing something, the Food Network, Court TV, MTV, Turner Classic Movies -- when I say every channel, I mean every channel. Every American city (and most major foreign cities) will be holding some sort of commemoration. There'll be marches, parades, testimonials, candlelight precessions, and moments of silence. There'll be fireworks and stirring patriotic songs. Drivers are being asked to turn on their headlights on the anniversary of that fateful morning. Politicians from the President to township councilmen will be all over the place giving speeches and unveiling memorials. When I typed "September 11 Anniversary" on the Google Internet search, it listed no less than 1,050,000 web sites! You have no idea the scope of 9-11 celebratory events. Every agency in the federal government has something going, not to mention all state and local governments. There are church memorials planed, Jewish memorials, Islamic memorials, even atheist memorials. Homosexual, lesbian and transgenered activities will be held to honor those homosexual, lesbian and transgenered victims of 9-11. Celebrities will be doing more specials to honor the victims and the victims' families. Music videos, symphony orchestras, poetry readings and sing-a-longs. There will be even more money collected for the families of the victims (when will there be enough, already?). We will see photos of the victims again. Hear their tragic stories again. We will remember the heroes and honor them again. People will cry again. We are in danger, actually, of drowning in our own tears. Remember September 11th? Has anyone in the world ever stopped remembering? It's good to remember, but maybe it's time to stop crying. We have just had a massive media blitz in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of Elvis Presley's "death day." This is a relatively new phenomenon. Yes, we have remembered Pearl Harbor on December 7th for decades, but we never embraced it to the extent that we embrace anniversaries of "death days" now. Thanks in part to television, we have become a society that wallows in it's tragedies. Even good intentions can be overdone. Meanwhile, we get closer to expanding our war on the Islamic terrorists that attacked us one year ago. Vice President Cheney has made it clear that the administration is preparing to liberate Iraq and take out Saddam Hussein. It's about time. In order to destroy terrorist networks like al Qaeda we need to overthrow the regimes that support them. As long as there are terrorist states like Iraq, Iran and Syria -- governments that harbor, train, and encourage terrorists -- we can never expect to completely succeed in our war against terror. The terrorists need to live somewhere -- we must do what is necessary to severely limit their housing options. If we really want to honor the memory of those who were incinerated last year we need to do something truly spectacular -- something that not only shows proper respect for their lives, but also sends a message to the world that all of America has taken their deaths extremely personally. Yes, we need to do something spectacular. Do we sing patriotic songs? Do we shoot off fireworks? Do we wave millions of American flags? Do we light 3,000 candles? Do we release 3,000 doves? Do we walk outside and hold hands with our neighbors? Do we weep collectively along with the victims' families? No -- none of the above. We've sung a year's worth of patriotic songs -- we finally know most of them by heart now. We've flown our flags from our homes, our cars, and our businesses until they became tattered and frayed -- then we bought more. We've worn our flag pins on our lapels and our hearts on our sleeves. We've heard the stories of horror and heroism. We've praised the firemen, the police, the military. We've given money to help the victims. We've gotten mad at the terrorists. We've cried and cried and cried. We've cried enough now. So how best to commemorate the first anniversary of the attack on September 11, 2001? How about with a triple-header -- simultaneous bombings of Baghdad, Damascus, and Teheran on September 11, 2002? Enjoy this writer's work? Why not sign-up for the daily JWR update. It's free.

Structural Intervention Time Series Analysis of Crime Rates: The Impact of Sentence Reform in Virginia Vujić, S., Commandeur, J. and Koopman, S. J., 2012. Structural Intervention Time Series Analysis of Crime Rates: The Impact of Sentence Reform in Virginia. Discussion Paper. Amsterdam: Tinbergen Institute Discussion Papers. Related documents:This repository does not currently have the full-text of this item. You may be able to access a copy if URLs are provided below. We adopt a structural time series analysis to investigate the impact of parole abolition and sentence reform in Virginia on reported crime rates. The Commonwealth of Virginia abolished parole and reformed sentencing for all felony offences committed on or after January 1, 1995. To examine the impact of Virginia’s change in legislation on reported crime rates from 1995 onwards, we perform an intervention time series analysis based on structural time series models. We empirically find that the change in legislation has significantly reduced the burglary rates and to a lesser extent the murder rates in Virginia. For other violent crimes such as rape and aggravated assault the evidence of a significant reduction in crime rates is less evident or is not found. This empirical study for Virginia also provides an illustration of how an effective intervention time series analysis can be carried out in crime studies. |Item Type||Reports/Papers (Discussion Paper)| |Creators||Vujić, S., Commandeur, J. and Koopman, S.

After speaking with Matt Kenseth via phone on Wednesday afternoon, I feel like I have a better grasp on why he made the decision to leave Roush Fenway Racing for a yet-to-be-named team (likely Joe Gibbs Racing). While Kenseth can't or won't say everything that led to his decision, he was very forthcoming about the details he felt he could talk about. Here are some common questions from you and a few answers that might help you understand the move: Kenseth doesn't have a full-time sponsor at Roush this year and might not have had one next year. Was stability the reason he left? The stability of just having a job and staying in the sport ranks "almost on the bottom" of his priority list, Kenseth said. "Winning races and trying to race for championships is on the top of my list, because you never know how long you can do this stuff," the 40-year-old said. "You never know when your last race is or your last lap is or your last win is or any of that." Reading between the lines on everything that's happened, it seems like the decision to leave was Kenseth's -- though it certainly doesn't hurt Roush to move one of its younger, cheaper drivers in Ricky Stenhouse Jr. up the ladder into the Sprint Cup Series. If Kenseth is having such a solid year and leading the points, why did he go looking for another team? He didn't. Other teams knew Kenseth was a free agent who was unsigned past this season, and the driver said he was approached by one who had an opportunity that intrigued him. As recently as a month or two ago, Kenseth planned on being at Roush for his entire career -- just as team owner Jack Roush said he did. When he got the initial phone call expressing interest, Kenseth said he didn't think, "Yeah, that's what I'm going to do for sure." "But after some talking and getting to know some people and some things that were happening, I think it just felt like it was the right thing to do," he said. "You look back and you're like, 'Oh man, I hope this is right.' But I felt really strongly it was the right thing to do and that was the place for me and the time to go do that. And I still feel like that." Was there a behind-the-scenes argument at Roush that we don't know about? Not according to Kenseth, who said he knows the lack of "one great reason" makes it harder for reporters and fans to understand his decision. "It's a combination of a lot of things and timing," he said. "There's nobody that was mad. There wasn't a fight, there wasn't a disagreement or somebody not doing something. There wasn't really any of that. I know that doesn't sound like a good answer, but that's really the truth." Kenseth said there was "no resistance from anywhere," and that it felt like all the pieces just fell into place for his move to happen. It certainly helped Kenseth to know Roush wanted to get Stenhouse Jr. into a Cup car. "I really think things happen for a reason and things line up like that sometimes," he said. "When they do, that's how it was meant to go – and that's what happened here." OK, but this is all about the money, right? Kenseth has always been sensitive about his contract situation and won't discuss financial details. And this year, it's worth noting, Kenseth wouldn't even publicly acknowledge his free agent status. If he was going for a big payday, he perhaps could have used the media to gain leverage -- either with Roush or potential suitors -- but instead, he kept quiet about it the whole time. Sources told SB Nation that Kenseth might actually be taking a pay cut with his new team rather than scoring a bigger deal. If he'd remained at Roush, though, he may have gotten even less due to the sponsorship situation there. Roush will save millions per year by signing Stenhouse Jr. instead of Kenseth, which will lower the price point for sponsorship. Why can't Kenseth and his new team (again, likely JGR) just announce their deal now? Are there sponsorship concerns still to be worked out? Kenseth said he simply couldn't talk about the details of where he's headed in 2013, even the reasons why an announcement can't be made yet. He said the news will be made public "hopefully sooner than later" and all sides had already reached an agreement, including his new sponsors. "Everything is set; everything is in place," he said. "I think we're good there. I feel good about '13 and beyond. I don't think it's any of that." The driver said his new team -- which he called "another very winning organization" -- is a good fit for him and he believes he can be successful there. Isn't Kenseth getting kind of old to start over with a new team? Not at all. Though Kenseth is 40, that's not old for a race car driver. Tony Stewart just won the championship at 40 last year, and Mark Martin is still racing competitively at age 53. Kenseth said Wednesday it's impossible to say right now how much longer he plans to race. "I just don't know," he said. "And by saying 'I don't know,' I feel like that means I'm so far away from the end or when I want to walk away that I can't even fathom when that is. I sure hope to be driving for a long time." Why can't the media just respect Kenseth's decision and leave him alone? Kenseth knew there were questions about his move and wanted to fulfill interview requests for as many reporters as possible. It was his decision to talk for so long. He spent three straight hours on Wednesday afternoon doing phone interviews with 13 different reporters and answering mostly the same questions the entire time. I'm still confused. Will all the details about Kenseth's decision come out eventually? Not if the driver has his way. Kenseth, who has always been a private person, said there's nothing to be gained by talking about some of the specific conversations or factors that led to the move. "There are a fair amount of closed-door things or feelings or circumstances or whatever that will probably never get talked about, just because it doesn't do anybody any good at the end of the day," he said. That said, once Kenseth and his new team make their announcement, everything might make more sense.

PASSIVE COMPONENTS, like many other building blocks in the high-frequency industry, have improved in terms of electrical performance per unit size over the last five decades. When looking back over the years at earlier passive components and assemblies, it is not so much the pure electrical performance that is striking as much as the advances in packaging that have taken place over that time. In 1980, for example, one of the leading suppliers of microwave mixers, Watkins-Johnson of Palo Alto, CA, made news with their M4 series of flatpack mixers. The products included the model WJ-M4A with local-oscillator (LO) and RF range of 10 to 1500 MHz and intermediate-frequency (IF) range of DC to 1000 MHz. During the same time period, a company still going strong, Mini-Circuits, was selling coaxial power dividers for only $39.95 each. The firm's ZAPD line of power dividers included models from 0.5 to 1.0 GHz, 1.0 to 2.0 GHz, and 2.0 to 4.2 GHz (Fig. 1). The insertion loss was 0.2 dB for all models, still considered good today. Another company still going strong, ARRA, Inc., of Westbury (now Bay Shore), NY, offered a line of miniature continuously variable attenuators in 1968. Available for applications from 2.0 to 12.4 GHz, the attenuators handled 5 W average power and 3 kW peak power with maximum insertion loss of 0.5 dB. An article in March 1968 by members of the technical staff of the Microwave Department of Sylvania Electric Products, Inc. of Woburn, MA detailed how a new type of diode, the beamlead Schottky barrier diode (Fig. 2), appeared to be a more electrically efficient device than point-contact diodes for frequency-conversion applications. The article compared the performance characteristics of both semiconductor devices, and showed how a microwave mixer could be formed using a beam-lead Schottky diode pair (Fig. 3). Around the same time, Bill Marshall, Switch Marketing Manager for Transco, demonstrated his firm's modular approach to waveguide switch assemblies (Fig. 4). Using a variable waveguide switch design, the assemblies performed transmitter switching to 18 GHz under full-power operation. They provided switching speed of better than 50 ns. The Micro State Electronics Operation of Raytheon in Murray Hill, NJ was working with advanced stripline, leading to the group's development of a switch/driver assembly for applications from 1020 to 1100 MHz (Fig. 5). It achieved hot switching of 10 kW peak power in only 150 ns. For those who doubted digital technology existed five decades ago, Daico Industries offered a pair of digital variable attenuators with integral TTL (model DA0295) and CMOS (model DA0285) drivers. Switching under 7-b control, the digital attenuators (Fig. 6) provided 63.5-dB attenuation control ranges from 30 to 500 MHz with least significant bit (LSB) of 0.5 dB. They could handle input power levels to +13 dBm with nominal switching speed of 5 s. Last but not least, Systron Donner was among a group of companies promoting their capabilities in "supercomponents." These were essentially compact assemblies that combined the functions of multiple components. One of the company's supercomponents was an assembly designed for X-band radar (Fig. 7), with a low-noise mixer and Gunn diode LO. The LO provided a 40-MHz tuning range around 9.375 GHz.

The Bottom Whisperer: Freak Like Me Greeting fandome! Hope everyone is having an awesome week. Happy hump day! Follow me on facebook and twitter if you aren’t already. If you’re lucky I might go all Chris Brown and tweet pictures of my junk (not really). Check out last week’s column just in case you missed it. Dear Bottom Whisperer, I recently came out of the closet after being away at college for my sophomore year. I made friends at school who helped make my coming out experience really great. My family has also been very supportive since I came out to them. I recently went on a few dates with a guy from one of my classes. On our third date we went back to his place and got it on. Once we got down to our underwear and were making out on his bed he stopped for a second and with a kinda embarrassed look said to me “I just want you to have a heads up so you aren’t disappointed, I am not very hung. Don’t worry tho, I am totally cool just being the bottom sexually.” This really took me off guard and kinda killed the mood. We made out some more but then I told him I had to head home. I feel weird now because we had a nice time together. So many things are going through my head. Do less hung guys have to be the bottom? If I’m not hung do I have to apologize to the guy I’m with? This whole situation just kinda blew my mind. I feel awkward around him now and I think he is into me and wants to keep seeing each other. Trying Out Playing Sorry There is no gay rulebook, and if there were, it would not have a rule that you have to apologize if your member isn’t “above average”. This guy clearly has some insecurity about what he’s packing downstairs, not your issue to deal with/take on/worry about. There are plenty of guys out there who are average and not hung who are tops. Your old pal The Bottom Whisperer can vouch that there are some bottom boys out there packing some serious heat downstairs. Unless you run your sex life like a communist work program, people should be welcome to do whatever they want (within reason) in the bedroom. Not every hung guy wants to be a big old top daddy, not every average guy wants to bite the pillow. Good on you for seeing how ridiculous this way of thinking is. I hope your dinner friend can have a similar moment of clarity. Yes there are people who fetishize hung guys, just like there are people who fetishize certain body types, ethnicity, body modification, etc. Don’t allow yourself to be put into a box because of your physical features. Never apologize for being the way that you are (unless it’s drunk and you just spilled on a really nice piece of furniture) and feel good about you! If you want to top, bottom, both, neither, in a car, in a bar, with a star…. Go for it. There are no rules, besides rules are just there to be broken. Happy humping! Dear Bottom Whisperer, I’m a twenty-something, educated, professional gay man living on the West Coast. I have been seeing a guy romantically for a couple of months now. We really enjoy each other and are about at the point where we should discuss seeing each other exclusively. But there is one thing that has been weighing heavily on my conscience as of late. My awesome gentleman-friend is very close to his ex-boyfriend. Normally this wouldn’t be an issue for me but it is pretty obvious that his ex still has some serious feelings for him. I don’t bring it up because I don’t want to let it affect what we have going on. I will say that I have caught his ex meddling in our affairs a couple of times such as checking up on me with mutual friends. I can’t help but think this is part of a much greater plan to get me out of the picture and get back with him. I’m not an insecure person but this is bothering me and I am looking for a way of resolving it while also keeping this great thing going with my beau. Advice please? Shouldn’t Consider Reciprocating Alleged Manipulation Thanks for the great question! You say that you don’t want the influence of a shady ex to interrupt or affect what you have going on. I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news but it already is. I think it is great that you haven’t flipped and asked your man-friend what is up or to pick one of you, because that would just make you look bad. It is possible your guy is a bit of an attention whore and loves having 2 hot guys pine after him, he could also be completely clueless. Either way, don’t let this guy’s actions sweat you because he is just trying to get a reaction out of you, and if you give it to him, you give him the keys to the Porsche. He will know he can get a stir out of you and then it is game over. Now if he continues and even becomes more brazen with his attempts to manipulate you or your guy, you’re gonna have to put the ball in your man’s court. A simple “Maybe we should take a break so you can work through some of the stuff you have hanging around from your ex.” Should do the trick. If he likes you he will get the picture. By allowing his ex to meddle with your business you are not setting healthy boundaries with your new guy. These situations happen quite a bit and it is very difficult as the new person in the dynamic to come out of it looking like a class act. Most people wanna get all Jerry Springer and start a screaming match. Don’t stoop so low. If this guy is a good fit and meant to be, he needs to reel it in and get his ex in check. I’d even advise you to save that conversation about being exclusive until that very thing happens. Best of luck!

If you're a "Breaking Bad" devotee, news that the Sundance Channel will begin airing Seasons 1 through 4 of the show (beginning tonight at 11 PM) is a welcome chance to rewatch one of (if not the) greatest TV dramas of all time. And for you "Bad" newbies … we envy you, because you have the chance to experience for the first time the unfolding of an incredibly written and acted story, led by two Emmy-winning actors (Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul) and an Emmy-worthy supporting cast. With the last eight episodes of the series scheduled to premiere on AMC this summer, Sundance's off-network airings will run back to back every Monday night for the show's first 46 installments. Here, five moments every "BB" fan -- new and old -- should catch during the Sundance run (oh, MAJOR SPOILERS ahead): (Warning: The following clips contain violence and adult language.) 1. Workin' at the car wash Make that not working at the car wash. In the series premiere, meek, fed-up high school chemistry teacher Walter White (Cranston) -- who has to work a second job at a car wash just to make ends meet for his family -- does his best Johnny Paycheck when he tells his gruff, bushy-browed car wash boss to take his job and shove it, while referencing the eyebrows, slapping around some air fresheners, and throwing in a crotch grab for good measure. It's the first moment Walt really lets go of years of pent-up frustration, though it's certainly not the last. 2. The birth of Heisenberg Season 1, "Crazy Handful of Nothin'" As Walt's partner in crime, Jesse (Paul) would later proclaim, "Yay, science!" In this case, that science is fulminated mercury, which Walt uses to get the attention -- and the business -- of drug lord Tuco. Old Walt, meek Walt, would never have had the nerve to stand up to the menacing Tuco (Raymond Cruz), but Jesse has been beaten up and Walt's had to shave his head for chemotherapy. And in his new, emboldened state, his alter ego "Heisenberg" strides into Tuco's headquarters, blows the joint up (using the mercury), and demands that Tuco buy his special brand of crystal meth. With payment upfront. 3. What would you do? Season 2, "Phoenix" Walt had a choice in this episode, the penultimate installment of the season, when Jesse's new girlfriend, Jane (Krysten Ritter), was choking to death after a drug binge with fellow addict Jesse: Walt could save her life … or, he could save almost a half-million dollars in cash, and make sure Jane was no longer around to influence Jesse. It took the series' ability to shock -- and Walter White's conscience -- to a whole other level, and led to even more shocking fallout in the season finale. 4. "I am the one who knocks" Season 4, "Cornered" Skyler, realizing fully what danger Walt's enterprise has put her and the kids in, pleads with him to turn to the police to protect them. They're in danger, she argues. But Walter, fully believing his own Heisenberg hype by this point, just gets annoyed with her insistence that he's in danger, and that the bad guys are going to come knocking on their door. "I am not in danger, Skyler, I am the danger … a guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks!" 5. Blown away Season 4, "Face Off" Not even "The Wire" or "The Sopranos" put forth a more complicated, calculating, villain than Giancarlo Esposito's Gus Fring, who found out in a very just way in the Season 4 finale that he was smarter than almost everyone … except Walter White. It was part of a Season 4 ender that was so satisfying it could have served as the "Breaking Bad" series finale (though we're very happy it didn't). "Breaking Bad" airs on Sundance Channel Mondays at 11 PM and midnight.

Two longtime Hope College traditions -- The Pull tug-of-war and the Nykerk Cup competition -- are included in a book, "Campus Traditions: Folklore from the Old-Time College to the Modern Mega-University" by Simon J. Bronner, Distinguished Professor of American Studies and Folklore and director of the American studies doctoral program at the Pennsylvania State University, Harrisburg. The book is published by the University of Mississippi Press. Both the Pull and Nykerk are competitions between members of the freshman and sophomore classes. The Pull marked its 115th year earlier this fall. Nykerk, a Hope tradition since 1936, will be held on Saturday, Nov. 3, as part of Parents Weekend. Over the years The Pull in particular has found its way into the national and even international media, from The Guinness Book of World Records (1995) to Sports Illustrated (twice--in 1966 and 1996); from a magazine in Japan (1983) to Australian television (1996). Book Descriptive from Mississippi Press From their beginnings, campuses emerged as hotbeds of traditions and folklore. American college students inhabit a culture with its own slang, stories, humor, beliefs, rituals, and pranks. Simon J. Bronner takes a long, engaging look at American campus life and how it is shaped by students and at the same time shapes the values of all who pass through it. The archetypes of absent-minded profs, fumbling jocks, and curve-setting dweebs are the stuff of legend and humor, along with the all-nighters, tailgating parties, and initiations that mark campus tradition--and student identities. Undergraduates in their hallowed halls embrace distinctive traditions because the experience of higher education precariously spans childhood and adulthood, parental and societal authority, home and corporation, play and work. Bronner traces historical changes in these traditions. The predominant context has shifted from what he calls the "old-time college," small in size and strong in its sense of community, to mass society's "mega-university," a behemoth that extends beyond any campus to multiple branches and offshoots throughout a state, region, and sometimes the globe. One might assume that the mega-university has dissolved collegiate traditions and displaced the old-time college, but Bronner finds the opposite. Student needs for social belonging in large universities and a fear of losing personal control have given rise to distinctive forms of lore and a striving for retaining the pastoral "campus feel" of the old-time college. The folkloric material students spout, and sprout, in response to these needs is varied but it is tied together by its invocation of tradition and social purpose. Beneath the veil of play, students work through tough issues of their age and environment. They use their lore to suggest ramifications, if not resolution, of these issues for themselves and for their institutions. In the process, campus traditions are keys to the development of American culture. Mississippi Press Website

Gordon Square leader to head Global Cleveland 9:00 am, November 15, 2012 Joy Roller, executive director of the Gordon Square Arts District, has been selected as the next president of Global Cleveland. “We are excited that Joy Roller will be leading Global Cleveland, a major economic development initiative for the region,” said Baiju R. Shah, chairman of Global Cleveland, in a news release. “She is a highly-regarded civic leader due to the successful development of the Gordon Square Arts District under her leadership.” Ms. Roller, who has been executive director of the Gordon Square Arts District since 2006, will fill the position formerly held by Larry Miller, who resigned from the post last month for health reasons. Global Cleveland is a year-old economic development initiative focused on connecting newcomers to opportunities in the region. “To continue to grow this region, we must proactively reach out and attract a broad and diverse group of individuals to become new citizens in our region,” Ms. Roller said. “We can only accomplish this by leveraging the region's many ethnic communities, alumni networks, and young-professional groups, as peer-to-peer or word-of-mouth marketing is the most impactful means of communication.”

Now, after more than 20 years as a regular "Today" viewer, Wurtzel tunes to CBS most mornings. Multiply such defections and you have the chief reason for television's changing fortunes in morning news, where ABC's "Good Morning America" has ended NBC's epic 17-year winning streak on "Today." ABC is growing—"GMA" has 110,000 more viewers each day this year than last—but not as much as NBC is slipping (437,000 viewers a day since last year). Wurtzel, 57, left last spring because of "Today" co-host Ann Curry. "Ann's interview style was like chalk on a board to me," she said. "She leaned toward her interviewee and whispered her questions like someone had died. The more serious the interview, the quieter she got. When she replaced Meredith (Vieira), I tried to adjust and accept, but she just didn't work for me. Katie (Couric) and Meredith were relatable, empathetic and funny. Ann just seemed out of place." Executives at NBC were quietly reaching the same conclusion and moved to replace Curry with Savannah Guthrie. Then came June 28, 2012, Curry's last day as co-host. She cried in bewilderment at her perceived failure at losing the job she had sought for years, as her uncomfortable Suddenly, a problem for NBC became a BIG problem. Even people who didn't particularly like Curry loathed the way she was dispatched. Except for two weeks during the Olympics, "Today" hasn't sniffed first place in the ratings since. During the first six months of 2012, "Today" averaged just under 5.2 million viewers each weekday. Since July 2, the audience has dropped to 4.59 million, according to Nielsen, the company that measures TV audiences. Without the two weeks of the London Olympics, the average is 4.3 million. That's a stunning drop, even accounting for typical lower viewership in the summer. An informal survey of three dozen viewers who have left or are considering leaving "Today" turned up various explanations, including a feeling that the show had leaned too far in the direction of lighter, pop culture fare. The Curry dismissal was clearly a tipping point, however. William Runge, a manager at an educational cable network who lives in suburban Winston-Salem, N.C., likened the treatment of Curry to "a public flogging." "The PR machine at NBC spent an enormous amount of time and effort convincing me that the 'Today' show team was actually part of my family, 'America's First Family," said Runge, 46, citing the show's advertising slogan. "Guess what? They were right. These did feel like family members. So this is how you are going to treat a member of your family? "You can debate for hours whether Ms. Curry was right for the role," he said. "That's not the point. She was doing her job and was barely 11 months into it when they canned her in the most humiliating way possible." The move was "heart-wrenching," said Isabelle Langelier, a 40-year-old manager at a drug company from Montreal. "It made me feel sick for her. And it made me turn the channel, probably permanently." "While I thought Ann Curry's interviews were a little hokey at times, she is clearly the most genuine person in TV news," said Sarah Rosenthal, 53, a graduate student and mother of three from West Chester, Pa. "After her unceremonious dumping, I turned it off. I have nothing against Savannah, and adore Natalie Morales, but there is just a different tone to the show." Even worse for NBC, a significant number of viewers appear to blame co-host Matt Lauer for the move. The network has consistently denied tabloid reports that Lauer was unhappy with Curry. "Today" Executive Producer Jim Bell said late last month that Lauer was being treated unfairly. Firing Curry was Bell's decision, he said. Some awkward public moments haven't helped. When Curry reappeared on "Today" during the London Olympics to introduce a story she had done, Lauer twice remarked that it was good to see her again. Curry didn't return the sentiment to the man she worked with for 15 years. Two years ago, Lauer's positive "Q" score was 23—meaning 23 percent of people who knew him considered Lauer one of their favorite broadcasters, according to Marketing Evaluations Inc., a company that measures public sentiment toward well-known personalities. Now his positive score is 14. At the same time, "Good Morning America" co-host Robin Roberts' positive "Q" score jumped from 20 to 27. Langelier felt there was a perception that Lauer was "king" and others on the show aren't equal to him. Lyle Nelson, 40, a salesman from Avondale, Ariz., said Lauer was "not someone I'd like to have a beer with." "There is something about Matt Lauer, whether or not he was the reason for Curry's firing, that has changed and I do not like watching the show anymore," said John Friia, a 20-year-old aspiring journalist from Malverne, N.Y. Fortunately for NBC, viewers don't seem to be taking out their unhappiness on Guthrie. Producers often say that viewing decisions for morning television can be intensely personal, since people are essentially inviting these personalities into their homes at an intimate time of day when they were getting ready for work. Feeling a part of the TV "family" they see on air is part of it, and sometimes the reasoning seems strange. Nelson said, for example, that he didn't like the couch on "Today" because it looked uncomfortable. "In today's doom and gloom news programs, the 'Today' show gave me a lift to get my day started," said Taren Robin, 48, from Paris, Ky. "I don't get that lift anymore, and I am in mourning over the fact. I haven't found anything I like better to take its place." At least one-third of people who responded to a Twitter request to discuss the show cited its content for their discontent. "I used to be a regular 'Today' show viewer but got tired of their formula," said Dan Laufer, 35, a sports marketer from Washington, D.C. "Five minutes of hard news followed by an animal rescue story, the Kardashians and then pop culture or fashion. It's OK with me—in moderation." Joan Pierce is a 64-year-old retired nurse from Oklahoma City, Okla., who watched "Today" for 40 years. Now she says: "I don't care what Lindsay Lohan does." "I was fed up with the lack of actual news reporting, and more intense focus on silly, irrelevant things like women's fashion or the newest celebrity's recipe for a dinner I could never find the time or money to cook," said Zach Beale, a 23-year-old college student in Savannah, Ga. Biting as they may be, at least those complaints offer "Today" the seeds of potential recovery. "Good Morning America," particularly in its second hour, has an even greater pop culture emphasis. Bell said his show will try to draw a greater contrast with its ABC rival in coming months. A recent ad with Lauer touts the "informative" nature of the show. Curry, who has kept her job with NBC as a hard news reporter, appeared on "Today" during the past month interviewing Libyan President Mohammed Magarief and reporting from Syria. CBS has already tried to position itself as a newsier alternative in the morning. Because "Today" has a richer history and often twice as many viewers, it would be in better position to reach people who want this. NBC announced this week that Willie Geist, an engaging and popular member of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" team, will join "Today" as a co-host of the 9 a.m. hour and occasionally appear earlier. "What I loved about the show were the hosts, reporters and the stories," said Miriam Sajecki, a marketer from Staten Island, N.Y. who has watched "Today" for more than 20 years. "It was always delivered in a friendly, engaging and informative manner. Some of that has changed in that I miss the chemistry that was displayed with the prior hosts ... and some of the stories 'Today' was known for. It has evolved into forgettable reports without giving me the important news and educational stories." Still, Sajecki is a loyalist. "I will continue to watch the 'Today' show and wake up to it every weekday," she said. NBC needs devoted fans like Sajecki to turn things around. It will take some time.

रि‍ट्रीवर एक प्रकार का गन डॉग है जो किसी शिकारी के लिए गेम को पाता है। आमतौर पर गन-डॉग्स को तीन मुख्य श्रेणियों में विभाजित किया जाता है: रिट्रीवर, फ्लशिंग स्पैनियल और पॉइंटिंग प्रजातियाँ। रिट्रीवर को मुख्य रूप से चिड़ियों या अन्य शिकार को पुनः प्राप्त करने और शिकारी को बिना नुकसान पहुंचाए लौटाने के लिए पाला जाता था। यद्यपि स्पैनियल और कुछ पॉइंटिंग प्रजातियाँ नियमित रूप से खेल को पुनः प्राप्त करती हैं, और कई रिट्रीवर गेम को खोजने में कुशल होते हैं, रिट्रीवर इस मायने में विशिष्ट हैं कि बिना किसी नुकसान के पुनः प्राप्त करना उनका प्राथमिक कार्य है। इसके परिणामस्वरूप, रिट्रीवर प्रजातियों को नरम मुँह और खुश करने, सीखने और आज्ञा का पालन करने की बड़ी इच्छा के लिए पाला जाता है। नरम मुँह का मतलब कुत्ते की इच्छा से है कि वह बिना काटे अपने मुँह में खेल को ले जाए। कठोर मुँह एक शिकारी कुत्ते में एक गंभीर गलती है और इसे ठीक करना बहुत मुश्किल है। एक कठोर मुँह वाला कुत्ता खेल को दिखने में खराब कर देता है या सबसे बुरी तरह से अखाद्य बना देता है। फ्लैट कोट रिट्रीवर लेख का प्रिंटर अनुकूल संस्करण देखें। लेख सुनें फ्लैट कोट रिट्रीवर लेख के ऑडियो संस्करण को सुनें। हॉट की: + + फ्लैट कोट रिट्रीवर तथ्य देशी नस्ल का नाम … वह क्षेत्र जहाँ जानवर पहली बार आया था … जानवर की लंबाई (L) या ऊँचाई (H)… जानवर का वज़न माप… जानवर कितने समय तक जीवित रहता है… बिल्ली या कुत्ते जैसा घरेलू समूह …

यूईएफए यूरो 2012 |फुटबॉल में यूरोपियन चैंपियनशिप 2012 Чемпіонат Європи з футболу 2012 यूईएफए यूरो 2012 का आधिकारिक प्रतीक |तिथियाँ||8 जून - 1 जुलाई| |स्थान||8 (8 मेज़बान शहरों में)| |विजेता||स्पेन (तीसरी उपाधि)| |गोल संख्या||76 (2.45 प्रति मैच)| |उपस्थिति||1,440,896 (46,481 प्रति मैच)| |शीर्ष गोल करने वाले||मारियो मंड्ज़ुकिच (हर एक 3 गोल) |बेस्ट प्लेयर||एंड्रेस इनिएस्ता| 2012 की यूईएफए यूरोपीय फुटबॉल चैंपियनशिप, जिसे आमतौर पर यूरो 2012 के रूप में जाना जाता है, यूईएफए द्वारा आयोजित राष्ट्रीय फुटबॉल टीमों के लिए 14वीं यूरोपीय चैंपियनशिप थी। अंतिम टूर्नामेंट पहली बार पोलैंड और यूक्रेन द्वारा 8 जून से 1 जुलाई 2012 के बीच आयोजित किया गया था, 2007 में यूईएफए की कार्यकारी समिति द्वारा यह निर्णय लिया गया था। यूरो 2012 ने 16 टीमों के 1,440,896 की सबसे उच्च समग्र उपस्थिति और 46,481 की प्रति गेम की सबसे अधिक औसत उपस्थिति का रिकॉर्ड बनाया (1996 के बाद से)। अंतिम टूर्नामेंट में 16 राष्ट्रों को चित्रित किया गया था, ऐसा करने वाली आखिरी यूरोपीय चैंपियनशिप; यूरो 2016 से आगे, 24 फाइनलिस्ट होंगे। अगस्त 2010 और नवंबर 2011 के बीच 51 राष्ट्रों द्वारा अंतिम 14 फाइनलिस्टों का निर्धारण करने के लिए योग्यता का चुनाव लड़ा गया था। टूर्नामेंट आठ स्थलों पर खेला गया था, प्रत्येक मेजबान देश में चार स्थल थे, जिनमें से पांच नए बनाए गए थे। स्थानों के अलावा, मेजबान देशों ने रेलवे और सड़कों के बुनियादी ढांचे में सुधार के लिए भारी निवेश किया है। टूर्नामेंट 8 जून 2012 को वॉरसॉ में राष्ट्रीय स्टेडियम में पोलैंड और ग्रीस के बीच 1-1 की बराबरी के साथ शुरू हुआ। अंतिम मैच 23 दिन बाद 1 जुलाई 2012 को कीव में ओलंपिक स्टेडियम में हुआ, जहां स्पेन ने इटली पर 4-0 की जीत के साथ अपने खिताब का बचाव किया। स्पेन लगातार दो यूरोपीय चैंपियनशिप जीतने वाली पहली टीम बन गई, और तीन सीधे प्रमुख टूर्नामेंट खिताब (यूरो 2008, 2010 विश्व कप और यूरो 2012) जीतने वाली पहली अंतरराष्ट्रीय टीम बन गई। चूंकि स्पेन 2010 विश्व कप जीतकर पहले ही 2013 कन्फेडरेशन कप में प्रवेश प्राप्त कर चुका था, इसलिए दूसरे स्थान पर रही इटली को क्वालीफाई किया गया। यूरो 2012 ऑस्ट्रिया और स्विट्जरलैंड में आयोजित यूरो 2008 (के बाद की) दूसरी लगातार यूरोपीय चैंपियनशिप थी जिसमें मेजबान में से कोई भी ग्रुप चरण से नहीं निकला,[a] क्योंकि पोलैंड और यूक्रेन दोनों ही बाहर हो गए थे। बोली प्रक्रिया इस कार्यक्रम की मेज़बानी में शुरू में सात देशों का प्रतिनिधित्व करने वाली पाँच बोलियों ने भाग लिया: क्रोएशिया-हंगरी, ग्रीस, इटली, पोलैंड-यूक्रेन और तुर्की। 2005 में यूईएफए द्वारा बोली डेटा पर प्रारंभिक विचार के बाद ग्रीक और तुर्की दोनों बोलियों को प्रक्रिया से हटा दिया गया ताकि तीन उम्मीदवार बने रहें। इसके बाद चयन प्रक्रिया का दूसरा दौर चला, जिसमें अन्य के साथ सभी उम्मीदवारों के यूईएफए के दौरे भी शामिल थे। 18 अप्रैल 2007 को, कार्डिफ़ में एक बैठक में यूईएफए की कार्यकारी समिति के वोट से पोलैंड-यूक्रेन की बोली को चुना गया। पोलैंड-यूक्रेन बेल्जियम-नीदरलैंड (2000) और ऑस्ट्रिया-स्विट्जरलैंड (2008) के बाद यूरोपीय चैंपियनशिप के लिए तीसरी सफल संयुक्त बोली बन गई। उनकी बोली को वोटों का पूर्ण बहुमत मिला, और इसलिए बिना दूसरे दौर की आवश्यकता के विजेता घोषित किया गया। इटली, जिसे शेष वोट मिले थे, मेज़बान जीतने का पसंदीदा माना जा रहा था, लेकिन प्रशंसक हिंसा की घटनाओं और एक मैच फिक्सिंग घोटाले को व्यापक रूप से उनकी विफलता के पीछे कारकों के रूप में उद्धृत किया गया था। यूईएफए द्वारा 2009 में आठ मेज़बान शहरों की पुष्टि करने से पहले, प्रारंभिक बोली योजना से स्थानों के संबंध में कुछ बाद में परिवर्तन हुए। पोलैंड और यूक्रेन में तैयारी प्रक्रिया के दौरान, यूईएफए ने बार-बार इस कार्यक्रम की मेजबानी के लिए उनकी तैयारी के बारे में चिंता व्यक्त की, और यदि वे सुधार नहीं करते हैं तो विभिन्न उम्मीदवारों को वैकल्पिक मेज़बान बताया गया; हालाँकि, अंत में, यूईएफए ने उनके चयन की पुष्टि की। यूईएफए यूरो 2012 की क्वालीफाइंग प्रतियोगिता के लिए 7 फरवरी 2010 को वॉरसॉ में ड्रॉ हुआ। साथी मेज़बान पोलैंड और यूक्रेन के साथ फाइनल में चौदह शेष स्थानों के लिए 51 टीमों ने प्रतिस्पर्धा की। सीडिंग निर्धारित करने के लिए पहले यूईएफए राष्ट्रीय टीम गुणांक का उपयोग करते हुए नई यूईएफए राष्ट्रीय टीम गुणांक के साथ टीमों को नौ समूहों में विभाजित किया गया था। डिफेंडिंग चैंपियन के रूप में, स्पेन को स्वचालित रूप से शीर्ष वरीयता प्राप्त थी। क्वालीफाइंग प्रक्रिया अगस्त 2010 में शुरू हुई और नवंबर 2011 में समाप्त हुई। अक्टूबर 2011 में क्वालीफाइंग ग्रुप चरण के समापन पर, नौ ग्रुप विजेता शीर्ष रैंकिंग वाली दूसरी टीम के साथ स्वचालित रूप से योग्य हो गए। शेष आठ दूसरे स्थान पर रही टीमों ने दो चरणों के प्ले-ऑफ में भाग लिया, और चार विजेता फाइनल के लिए क्वालीफाई हुए। सोळा फाइनलिस्टों में से बारह ने 2008 में पिछले टूर्नामेंट में भाग लिया था। इंग्लैंड और डेनमार्क ने यूरो में वापसी की, आखिरी बार 2004 में भाग लिया था, जबकि आयरलैंड गणराज्य चौबीस साल की अनुपस्थिति के बाद यूरोपीय चैंपियनशिप में अपनी दूसरी उपस्थिति दर्ज कराने के लिए लौटा। सह-मेज़बानों में से एक, यूक्रेन ने एक स्वतंत्र राष्ट्र के रूप में पदार्पण किया (1992 से पहले यूक्रेन ने सोवियत संघ के हिस्से के रूप में भाग लिया)। क्वालीफाइंग चरण के अंत में यूईएफए की रैंकिंग के अनुसार सर्बिया के अपवाद के साथ टूर्नामेंट के लिए यूरोप की सोलह सर्वोच्च रैंक वाली टीमें क्वालीफाई हुईं। योग्य टीमें निम्नलिखित सोलह टीमें फाइनल के लिए क्वालीफाई हुईं: |

Abyss वेब सर्वर की विशेषताएँ छोटा, उपयोग में आसान और मानकों का पूर्ण रूप से पालन करने वाला Abyss वेब सर्वर एक छोटा वेब सर्वर है जो विंडोज़, MacOS X और लिनक्स ऑपरेटिंग सिस्टम के लिए उपलब्ध है। उत्तम कार्य-निष्पादन के लिए कम आवश्यकताओं Abyss वेब सर्वर को चलाने के लिए बहुत अधिक स्मृति या अत्यधिक कंप्यूटिंग शक्ति की ज़रूरत नहीं होती। यही कारण है कि इसका उपयोग छोटी या पुरानी प्रणालियों पर भी बिना किसी समस्या के किया जा सकता है। यह कम से कम बाजार में उपलब्ध सामान्य वेब सर्वरों जितना ही अच्छा कार्य-निष्पादन करता है। Abyss वेब सर्वर में आधुनिक प्रणालियों पर अधिकतम कार्य-निष्पादन के लिए एक मूल 64-बिट संस्करण है। स्थापना पैकेज में 32-बिट और 64-बिट दोनों संस्करण होते हैं। विंडोज़ पर, यदि 64-बिट विंडोज़ सिस्टम का पता लगाया जाता है तो 64-बिट संस्करण स्वचालित रूप से स्थापित हो जाता है। लिनक्स पर, यदि 64-बिट ऑपरेटिंग सिस्टम का पता लगाया जाता है तो 64-बिट संस्करण का उपयोग किया जाता है। कंसोल नामक एक सहज वेब प्रबंधन इंटरफ़ेस वेब सर्वर के कॉन्फ़िगरेशन को वेब साइट ब्राउज़ करने जितना आसान बनाता है। कॉन्फ़िगरेशन फ़ाइलों को संपादित करने की कोई आवश्यकता नहीं है, कंसोल आपको सर्वर पैरामीटर को सहज तरीके से सेट करने में मदद करता है और इसे स्थानीय या रिमोट कंप्यूटर से एक्सेस किया जा सकता है। यह अंग्रेजी, फ़्रेंच, अरबी, चीनी और स्पेनिश जैसी कई भाषाओं में उपलब्ध है। Abyss वेब सर्वर APX आर्किटेक्चर पर आधारित है। APX (जो एंटी-क्रैश प्रोटेक्शन एक्सटेंशन के लिए है) को एप्रिलियम में बनाया गया था, ताकि सर्वर को क्रैश-प्रूफ बनाया जा सके। यदि ऐसा होता है कि सॉफ़्टवेयर एक गंभीर त्रुटि का कारण बनता है और क्रैश हो जाता है (जो कि बहुत ही असंभव है), तो यदि संभव हो तो एक रिपोर्ट तैयार की जाएगी और सर्वर स्वचालित रूप से पुनः प्रारंभ किया जाएगा। ऐसे मामले में डाउनटाइम 1 सेकंड से अधिक नहीं होगा! सुरक्षा Abyss वेब सर्वर में #1 प्राथमिकता है। इसके उन्नत URL डिकोडिंग इंजन के अलावा जो दुर्भावनापूर्ण और संदिग्ध अनुरोधों को अस्वीकार करता है, इसमें एक कुशल एंटी-हैकिंग प्रणाली है जो शुरुआती चरण में हैकिंग प्रयासों या सेवा हमलों से इनकार करती है और गतिशील रूप से उनके मूल IP पतों को प्रतिबंधित करती है। यह आपकी छवियों या फ़ाइलों से सीधे लिंक करने वाली अन्य वेब साइटों को स्वचालित रूप से रोकने के लिए एंटी-लीचिंग प्रणाली से भी सुसज्जित है। Abyss वेब सर्वर मानक ईएक्सटेंडेड सर्वर साइड इन्क्लूड निर्देशों का समर्थन करता है ताकि आपको कम से कम प्रयास के साथ और स्क्रिप्टिंग भाषा के उपयोग की आवश्यकता के बिना डायनामिक HTML पृष्ठ बनाने में मदद मिल सके। #if, #elif, #else, #endif और #set जैसे उन्नत निर्देश प्रवाह नियंत्रण के साथ-साथ चर सेटिंग और प्रतिस्थापन संरचनाओं को सक्षम करने के लिए उपलब्ध हैं। जब यह HTTP कंप्रेसन समझने वाले आधुनिक ब्राउज़रों से बातचीत करता है तो Abyss वेब सर्वर अपनी प्रतिक्रियाओं के स्वचालित कंप्रेसन का समर्थन करता है। यह बैंडविड्थ उपयोग को कम करने में योगदान देता है और अधिकांश विज़िटर के लिए आपकी साइटों को तेज़ी से लोड करता है। Abyss वेब सर्वर किसी भी मानवीय भाषा में लिखे गए फ़ाइल नामों और URL का समर्थन करता है। Abyss वेब सर्वर में ASP.NET 1.1 के साथ-साथ विंडोज़ NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, होम सर्वर, 2008, 7, 8 और 2012 पर ASP.NET 2.0, 3.5, 4.0 और 4.5 के 32-बिट और 64-बिट संस्करणों के लिए मूल समर्थन है। आप अपने ASP.NET एप्लिकेशन और ASPX फ़ाइलें स्थापित कर सकते हैं और बिना किसी कार्य-निष्पादन हानि और बिना किसी असंगति समस्या के तुरंत उन्हें सर्व करना शुरू कर सकते हैं। Abyss वेब सर्वर का ASP.NET समर्थन किसी भी तरह से सीमित नहीं है और C# या VB.NET में लिखी गई छोटी परीक्षण स्क्रिप्ट्स के साथ-साथ बड़े एप्लिकेशन को निष्पादित कर सकता है जो ASP.NET की उन्नत क्षमताओं का उपयोग करते हैं जैसे कस्टम वेब नियंत्रण, डेटाबेस एक्सेस, प्रमाणीकरण, वेब सेवाएँ, XML प्रोसेसिंग, MVC, AJAX, या RIA/Silverlight। Abyss वेब सर्वर को विशेष रूप से विंडोज़ प्लेटफ़ॉर्म पर भी स्क्रिप्ट का उपयोग करना यथासंभव सरल बनाने के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया है। अपने CGI और ISAPI एक्सटेंशन इंटरफेस के लिए धन्यवाद, Abyss वेब सर्वर PHP, Perl, "क्लासिक" ASP, Python, Ruby, Rebol और TCL जैसी विभिन्न स्क्रिप्टिंग भाषाओं का समर्थन करता है। भाषाएँ जिनके दुभाषिए FastCGI-संगत हैं (जैसे PHP) भी Abyss वेब सर्वर पर एक महत्वपूर्ण प्रोसेसिंग गति वृद्धि का अनुभव करेंगे जबकि एक ही समय में आपके सिस्टम लोड को कम करेंगे। चाहे आप एक साधारण स्क्रिप्ट का परीक्षण करने जा रहे हों या एक जटिल डेटाबेस-संचालित वेब एप्लिकेशन स्थापित करने और चलाने जा रहे हों, कॉन्फ़िगरेशन में आसानी और इष्टतम प्रदर्शन के मामले में Abyss वेब सर्वर सबसे अच्छा विकल्प है। Abyss वेब सर्वर रिवर्स प्रॉक्सी के रूप में कार्य कर सकता है ताकि उसके पीछे किसी दूसरे वेब सर्वर (जिसे आमतौर पर बैक-एंड सर्वर कहा जाता है) से सामग्री पारदर्शी रूप से प्रदान की जा सके। प्रॉक्सी किया गया सर्वर एक और वेब सर्वर या एक प्रतिबंधित या यहाँ तक कि एक बहुत ही मामूली HTTP समर्थन वाला एप्लिकेशन सर्वर हो सकता है जिसे बाहरी क्लाइंट से बचाना होता है। JSP (जावा सर्वलेट पेज) और Tomcat/Jetty वेब एप्लिकेशन का लाभ उठाने के लिए रिवर्स प्रॉक्सीइंग भी अनुशंसित तरीका है। Abyss वेब सर्वर Ruby on Rails फ़्रेमवर्क पर आधारित वेब एप्लिकेशन चला सकता है। FastCGI इंटरफ़ेस के उपयोग के लिए उनकी निष्पादन गति इष्टतम होगी। Abyss वेब सर्वर पर Ruby on Rails को स्थापित करना भी आसान बनाया गया है: फ़्रेमवर्क की त्वरित और सरल तैनाती के लिए स्पष्ट निर्देश और पूर्ण Ruby + Ruby on Rails पैकेज प्रदान किए जाते हैं। आप कुल बैंडविड्थ कॉन्फ़िगर कर सकते हैं जिसे Abyss वेब सर्वर को अनुरोधों का उत्तर देते समय उपयोग करने की अनुमति है। आप प्रत्येक विज़िटर के लिए अनुमत बैंडविड्थ को भी कॉन्फ़िगर कर सकते हैं। Abyss वेब सर्वर X2 में बेहतर बैंडविड्थ नियंत्रण भी उपलब्ध है और इसका उपयोग प्रति फ़ाइल, प्रति निर्देशिका या फ़ाइलों या निर्देशिकाओं के समूह के लिए अनुमत बैंडविड्थ को कॉन्फ़िगर करने के लिए किया जा सकता है। फ़ाइलों या निर्देशिकाओं की पासवर्ड सुरक्षा उतनी कभी आसान नहीं हुई। आप उपयोगकर्ताओं और उपयोगकर्ता समूहों को परिभाषित कर सकते हैं और कुछ क्लिक के साथ उन्नत एक्सेस नियम बना सकते हैं। Abyss वेब सर्वर के साथ, आप अपनी निर्देश

सुरक्षा-सील वाले मीट बॉक्स का इस्तेमाल चोरों को विफल करने के लिए किया गया। Herne Bay सुपरमार्केट में मीट के जोड़ों को चोरी को रोकने के लिए सुरक्षा-सील वाले बक्सों में बंद कर दिया गया है। Mortimer Street में Iceland ने शॉपलिफ्टर्स को विफल करने के लिए 'भेड़िया बचाने वाले बॉक्स' का उपयोग करने का सहारा लिया है - जो सामान्य रूप से अधिक महंगे सामानों की सुरक्षा के लिए उपयोग किए जाते हैं। Herne Bay Motor Cycles के मालिक साइमन वाइटमैन ने कहा कि वह इस बात से "घृणा और दुख" में है कि स्टोरों को अपनी सुरक्षा के लिए किस हद तक जाना पड़ रहा है। उन्होंने इसके बाद यह उभर कर सामने आया कि Iceland प्लास्टिक सुरक्षा बक्सों में पनीर डालने पर भी विचार कर रहा था। ग्रीनहिल से तीन बच्चों के पिता ने कहा, "मुझे लगता है कि यह दुःख की बात है कि लोगों को जीवित रहने के लिए Iceland से चोरी करनी पड़ती है। दुनिया कहाँ जा रही है? जब मैंने उन्हें देखा तो मुझे विश्वास ही नहीं हुआ। "मार्क्स एंड स्पेंसर से किसी महंगी चीज़ को चुराने की कोशिश करने वाले को लगभग समझा जा सकता है। "लेकिन Iceland से मांस चुराना? आगे क्या है: मछली की उंगलियों के आसपास एक इलेक्ट्रिक बाड़?" उनकी साझेदार Gemma Hogan ने कहा: "जब मैं बक्सों पर हँसी तो चेकआउट पर मौजूद महिला ने कहा कि वे पनीर को भी डालने की योजना बना रहे हैं। "सुनने में आ रहा है कि बहुत से लोग इसे चुरा रहे हैं। यह हास्यास्पद है। वे इसे अपनी पतलून के नीचे भरकर भाग जाते हैं।" श्री वाइटमैन ने कहा: "आप उन्हें बॉक्स चाहते हुए समझ सकते हैं क्योंकि तब भी जब उनके सुरक्षा गार्ड किसी को पकड़ते हैं तो वे पनीर नहीं बेच सकते - यह किसी की पैंट के नीचे था!" Iceland के शर्मीले प्रवक्ता एमी गोबल ने कहा: "भेड़िया बचाने वाले बक्सों का उपयोग कई सौ Iceland स्टोरों में किया जाता है और इन्हें ग्राहकों के लिए उत्पाद की उपलब्धता बढ़ाने के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया है। "बक्सों को चोरी को कम करने के लिए एक रक्षा तंत्र के रूप में डिजाइन किया गया है और इस प्रकार Herne Bay के लिए अधिकतम उपलब्धता सुनिश्चित की जाती है। Herne Bay चेंबर ऑफ कॉमर्स के अध्यक्ष माइकल खौरी ने इस कदम को "बेल्ट के नीचे" बताया। उन्होंने कहा: "यह बहुत आगे जा रहा है। अगर सैंकड़ों स्टोरों में उनकी यही नीति है तो उनकी बिक्री में कुछ गड़बड़ है। "लोग इसके बजाय कसाई के पास जाएंगे। किसी भी व्यवसाय में आपको लगभग 7% नुकसान की उम्मीद होती है, चोरी हो जाना और इस तरह की चीजों के साथ। लेकिन आपके रोस्ट के लिए सामग्री के चारों ओर सुरक्षा बॉक्स? वह बेल्ट के नीचे है और बहुत आगे जा रहा है।" आप क्या सोचते हैं? नीचे कमेंट करें। - कैंटरबरी की और खबरों के लिए यहां क्लिक करें... - काउंटी से और खबरों के लिए यहां क्लिक करें...

Bosch Rexroth Corp. के सीईओ बेरेंड ब्रैच्ट ने 23 अप्रैल बुधवार को एक औपचारिक प्रस्तुति दी, जिसमें उन्होंने 2007 में ठोस वृद्धि और 2008 के लिए दोहरे अंकों की वृद्धि के पूर्वानुमान की पेशकश करने की रिपोर्ट दी। Design News के प्रधान संपादक John Dodge ने इस "ड्राइव और नियंत्रण" कंपनी की स्थिति और इंजीनियरिंग पेशे के बारे में फोन पर Bracht से पूछताछ की। DN: क्या Bosch Rexroth एक इंजीनियरिंग कंपनी है? Bracht: इसमें कोई संदेह नहीं है कि BR एक इंजीनियरिंग कंपनी है। हमारी बिक्री बल में भी इंजीनियरिंग की डिग्री होती है (इंजीनियरों के लिए Bosch Rexroth के अनोखे Fun Facts और Creative Diversions हास्य पेज देखें)। DN: पिछले साल Bosch Rexroth ने 3,150 नौकरियां जोड़ी थीं, उनमें से कितने इंजीनियर थे? Bracht: मुझे वह आपके लिए प्राप्त करना होगा (बाद में दिन में, एक प्रवक्ता केवल यह कह सका कि 75 प्रतिशत नई नौकरियां उत्पादन में थीं)। DN: क्या BR किसी विशेष प्रकार के इंजीनियर की ओर आंशिक है? क्या वह एक मैकेनिकल इंजीनियर होगा? मुझे पता है कि यह आपकी पृष्ठभूमि है। Bracht: अतीत में ऐसा हो सकता है, लेकिन इलेक्ट्रिकल इंजीनियरिंग पक्ष आज उच्च संख्या में प्राप्त कर रहा है या हो सकता है। आनुपातिक वाल्व और इलेक्ट्रिक ड्राइव पंप और मोटर्स के साथ इलेक्ट्रो-हाइड्रोलिक्स भविष्य है। हम मैकेनिकल कार्य से [पहले] कनेक्टिविटी में आते हैं। DN: आपको क्या लगता है कि अमेरिका में इंजीनियरिंग स्नातक कामकाजी दुनिया के लिए कितने तैयार हैं? Bracht: स्वचालन उत्पादों को लागू करने में सक्षम होने में थोड़ी कमी है। इसलिए हमारे पास इन कॉलेजों की मदद के लिए वह धक्का है। टेक्सास A&M में, हमने उपकरण दान किया और उन्होंने स्वचालन के लिए एक अतिरिक्त प्रयोगशाला खोली और छात्र के लिए [प्रस्तावित] पाठ्यक्रम, जो लंबे समय में हमारे उद्योग के लिए बहुत फायदेमंद है (BR प्रतिद्वंद्वी Rockwell Automation ने 2000 में एक स्वचालन प्रयोगशाला के लिए लगभग $ 1 मिलियन नकद और उपकरण का उपहार दिया था)। कुल मिलाकर, इस उद्योग की ज़रूरतों के विरुद्ध एकीकरण पर अधिक जोर दिया जा सकता है, जिसके विपरीत कॉलेज छात्रों को प्रदान कर रहे हैं। DN: क्या कॉलेज में रहने के दौरान छात्रों को कार्यशील दुनिया में अनुभव प्रदान करना एक अच्छा विचार है? Bracht: जर्मनी में, आपके पास कार्यशील दुनिया में दो सेमेस्टर [है]। यह एक बहुत अच्छा विचार है और आपको बड़ा होने में मदद करता है। बहुत सारे [कॉलेज] छात्र काफी युवा हैं। यह आपको वास्तविक दुनिया कैसी है, इस पर बेहतर प्रतिक्रिया देता है और आपको यह निर्णय लेने में मदद करता है कि यह आपके लिए सही क्षेत्र नहीं है और आपको कुछ अलग चुनना चाहिए। या आपको यह विचार आता है कि आप इसे पसंद करते हैं और यह सही बात है और आप उच्च स्तर की प्रतिबद्धता के साथ कॉलेज वापस जाते हैं। DN: Bosch Rexroth के लिए मेक्ट्रोनिक्स कितना महत्वपूर्ण है? Bracht: यह कुछ समय के लिए यहां है और हम [एकल] घटक क्षेत्रों से दूर जा रहे हैं। एक प्रणाली दृष्टिकोण में इलेक्ट्रिकल, मैकेनिकल, न्यूमेटिक्स और हाइड्रोलिक्स को समझने की आवश्यकता यहां है। वह फोकस बढ़ रहा है। हम केवल [एकल] घटक बिक्री से एकीकृत मॉड्यूल और घटकों की ओर जा रहे हैं जो इन विभिन्न तकनीकों के दो, तीन या चार भागों को एकजुट करते हैं। DN: [आपकी औपचारिक प्रस्तुति में] आपने "मेक्ट्रोनिक्स असेंबली क्यूब" की एक स्लाइड दिखाई। वह क्या है? Bracht: हम मूल रूप से रैखिक तकनीक को अन्य [तकनीकों] के साथ एकीकृत कर रहे हैं। अधिक से अधिक, रैखिक, स्वचालन, इलेक्ट्रिक ड्राइव और नियंत्रणों को स्मार्ट और कुशल तरीकों से जोड़ा जाना चाहिए। हमारे पास खुला आर्किटेक्चर भी है, जिससे हम अपने प्रतिस्पर्धी के उत्पादों से जुड़ सकते हैं। (एक प्रवक्ता ने कहा कि मेक्ट्रोनिक्स क्यूब का उपयोग छात्रों को मैकेट्रोनिक्स के बारे में शिक्षित करने के लिए किया जाता है। Bosch Rexroth के उत्तरी अमेरिका में लगभग पांच तकनीकी कॉलेजों के साथ संबंध हैं। टेक्सास A&M के अलावा इलिनोइस स्टेट, ट्राई-काउंटी टेक्निकल कॉलेज, लेक सुपीरियर स्टेट यूनिवर्सिटी और नियाग्रा कॉलेज टेक्नोलॉजी टेक्निकल सेंटर हैं)। DN: Bosch Rexroth के व्यवसाय पर बढ़ती ऊर्जा लागत का क्या प्रभाव पड़ रहा है? Bracht: यह एक मुश्किल सवाल है। यह एक लाभ है क्योंकि तेल उद्योग में, पंप और मोटर जैसे बहुत सारे Bosch Rexroth उत्पाद हैं। तेल की कीमत जितनी अधिक होगी, उतना ही अधिक निवेश होगा। बेशक, हमारे लिए और परिवहन पक्ष पर एक लागत कारक है, हम हिट देखते हैं। यह एक प्रवाहित अर्थव्यवस्था में वापस बदल जाता है। उपभोक्ता जितना कम खरीद रहा है, उतना ही कम उत्पादन हो रहा है। DN: ऊर्जा समस्या का समाधान क्या है? Bracht: आपका अनुमान मेरे जितना ही अच्छा है। DN: सबसे गर्म विकास क्षेत्र क्या हैं? Bracht: हाइड्रोस्टेटिक पुनर्योजी ब्रेकिंग (वीडियो देखें) कुछ ऐसा है जिसे हम विकास में रखते हैं और हमारे पास कचरा ट्रक उपयोगकर्ताओं के साथ अनुबंध हैं (अपनी औपचारिक प्रस्तुति में, Bracht ने कहा कि तकनीक हाइब्रिड हाइड्रोलिक्स में डीजल की खपत को 25 प्रतिशत तक कम करने का वादा करती है)। हवा पर, हमारे पास अलग-अलग पॉकेट हैं। जर्मनी पवन मिलों के उपयोग में [उच्च] है (संबंधित ब्लॉग पोस्ट देखें)। (23 अप्रैल बुधवार को अपनी औपचारिक प्रस्तुति में, Bracht ने जर्मनी में एक नए पवन टरबाइन गियर संयंत्र में $247 मिलियन के निवेश, अमेरिका में लकड़ी उद्योगों में औद्योगिक स्वचालन, हाइड्रोलिक्स के माध्यम से पैनल की स्थिति सहित कई सौर पहलों और अमेरिका में उद्योग के विस्तार का उल्लेख किया।) संबंधित पॉडकास्ट: DN के प्रधान संपादक जॉन डॉज ने कल स्कूल से आने वाले अमेरिकी इंजीनियरों की गुणवत्ता और 2008 के व्यापार के दृष्टिकोण के बारे में Bosch Rexroth Corp. के सीईओ और अध्यक्ष Berend Bracht का साक्षात्कार लिया। उनका आकलन उत्साहपूर्ण है, खासकर पवन टरबाइन, सौर और हाइड्रॉलिक रूप से संचालित वाहनों के लिए पुनर्योजी ब्रेकिंग के बारे में। | Bosch Rexroth Corp. के सीईओ और अध्यक्ष Berend Bracht |

LabTechnologist.com आप के लिए A2, GE Healthcare, Guava, Millipore, Radleys, Syngene और Thermo Fisher Scientific की कुछ नवीनतम खबरें और रिलीज़ का संकलन लाया है। A2 Technologies एक नया पोर्टेबल फ़्यूरियर परिवर्तन इंफ्रारेड (FT-IR) स्पेक्ट्रोमीटर लेकर आया है जो फील्ड में प्रयोग करने के लिए बनाया गया है। मजबूत Mobility स्पेक्ट्रोमीटर रेंज में तीन सिस्टम हैं,MLp ML और MLx। इस स्पेक्ट्रोमीटर में दो हीरे आधारित नमूना प्रणालियाँ हैं ताकि तरल, ठोस, तेल, जैल और पेस्ट जैसी विस्तृत श्रृंखला को आसानी से विश्लेषण किया जा सके। इस प्रणाली की पोर्टेबिलिटी के कारण दूरस्थ प्रयोगशालाओं में नमूने भेजने की आवश्यकता कम हो जाती है, जिससे प्रयोगशाला में बाधाएँ घट जाती हैं और तेज़ विश्लेषण सुनिश्चित होता है। GE Healthcare को उसके पूर्व-नैदानिक इमेजिंग सिस्टम जिसमे ऑप्टिकल इमेजिंग, कम्प्यूटेड टोमोग्राफी (CT), पॉज़िट्रॉन इमीशन टोमोग्राफी (PET) और एकल फोटॉन इमीशन कम्प्यूटेड टोमोग्राफी (SPECT) शामिल हैं, के लिए फ़्रॉस्ट एंड सुलिवन 2007 उत्पाद नवप्रवर्तन पुरस्कार से सम्मानित किया गया है। फ़्रॉस्ट एंड सुलिवन के उद्योग विश्लेषक डॉ सुभा बसु ने कहा, “GE Healthcare, X-Ray, MRI, CT और PET इमेजिंग सेक्टर में अपनी व्यापक उत्पाद लाइन के साथ अग्रणी नैदानिक इमेजिंग कंपनी है।'' “GE प्रतिवर्ष अपनी नवप्रवर्तन सीमा का विस्तार करने में जो महत्वपूर्ण संसाधन लगाता है, वह कंपनी को पूर्व-नैदानिक इमेजिंग में एक अग्रणी के रूप में स्थापित कर रहा है।” Guava Technologies ने अपनी EasyCyte Plus सूक्ष्मकेशिका साइटोमेट्री प्रणाली के लिए नया सॉफ़्टवेयर जारी किया है, ताकि बहु-रंग पहचान को सरल बनाया जा सके। Guava के अनुसार, यह सॉफ़्टवेयर आपको डेटा विश्लेषण और संचालन कार्यों तक पहुँचने की अनुमति देते हुए, एक साथ आठ प्लॉट को विज़ुअलाइज़ करने की सुविधा देता है। Millipore ने दो नई सेल लाइन, MEL-1 और MEL-2 मानव भ्रूण स्टेम (HES) सेल लाइन जारी की हैं, जो निःशक्त और असाध्य रोगों और स्थितियों के उपचार और संभावित इलाज के लिए अनुसंधान में उपयोग की जाती हैं। कंपनी के अनुसार, सेल लाइन का HEScGRO मीडिया के साथ व्यापक रूप से परीक्षण किया गया है और ये Millipore की विस्तारित HES सेल लाइन श्रेणी के लिए एक मूल्यवान अतिरिक्त हैं। MEL लाइन को Stem Cell Sciences ने मेलबर्न IVF और ऑस्ट्रेलियाई स्टेम सेल सेंटर के सहयोग से प्राप्त की है और वे ऑस्ट्रेलियाई राष्ट्रीय स्वास्थ्य और चिकित्सा अनुसंधान परिषद के लाइसेंस के अंतर्गत हैं। Radleys ने साहित्य की नई रिलीज़ की है, जिसमें कंपनी की रासायनिक रूप से अक्रिय पॉलिएस्टर Tough-Tags लेबल की श्रृंखला का वर्णन किया गया है। ये लेबल सभी सामान्य प्रयोगशाला सामग्रियों पर मजबूती से चिपकते हैं और कार्बनिक सॉल्वेंट, कास्टिक एजेंट और अन्य आक्रामक रसायनों के प्रतिरोधी हैं और साथ ही तापमान प्रतिरोधी -196oC से 400oC तक हैं। Syngene ने पश्चिमी ब्लॉट की छवियों का उत्पादन करने वाला एक नया स्वचालित इमेज विश्लेषक, G:BOX Chemi XL, शुरू किया है, जो किसी भी Qdot रंग से लेबल किए गए हैं, जिससे विभिन्न फ्लोरोसेंट मार्कर के साथ टैग किए गए प्रोटीन का विभेदन किया जा सकता है। कंपनी का मानना है कि इससे कुल और पोस्ट-अनुवाद रूप से व्यक्त किए गए प्रोटीन के बीच आसान विभेदन की सुविधा होगी। विश्लेषक में एक 5.5 मेगा पिक्सेल, 16 बिट कूल्ड कैमरा है जो एक अंधेरे कमरे के अंदर फिट किया गया है और इसमें एक मोटर चालित नमूना चरण है। Syngene के संभागीय प्रबंधक, लॉरा सुलिवन ने कहा, “विभिन्न Qdot रंगों को एक दूसरे से अलग करने में सक्षम होने के साथ-साथ सिस्टम का पेल्टियर कूल्ड कैमरा केमिल्यूमिनेसेंस इमेजिंग को भी सक्षम बनाता है, जिसका अर्थ है कि G:BOX Chemi XL एक आवश्यक उपकरण है जहाँ फ्लोरोसेंट और केमिल्यूमिनेसेंट वेस्टर्न ब्लॉट की सटीक इमेजिंग अनुसंधान के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है।'' Thermo Fisher Scientific ने Heraeus Multifuge 3 Plus, जो कि नैदानिक और अनुसंधान दोनों अनुप्रयोगों के लिए एक नया सामान्य प्रयोजन अपकेन्द्रण प्रणाली है,की घोषणा की है। कंपनी के अनुसार, 3 लीटर के अपकेन्द्रण यंत्र बेंच-टॉप प्रसंस्करण की सबसे अधिक क्षमता प्रदान करते हैं और शोधकर्ता की दैनिक नमूना तैयारी प्रक्रियाओं को बेहतर बनाने के लिए कार्बन-फाइबर रोटार और उच्च क्षमता एडाप्टर के साथ आते हैं। थर्मो फिशर साइंटिफिक ने एक नया PCR बफर, ReddyMix, भी विकसित किया है, जिसमें एक लाल ट्रैकर डाई है जो थर्मल साइकिलिंग के बाद इलेक्ट्रोफोरेसिस पृथक्करण के लिए एगारोज़ जेल पर सीधे नमूनों को लोड करने में सक्षम बनाता है। इससे PCR प्रक्रिया में पिपेटिंग और अभिकर्मक से निपटने के चरण कम हो जाने चाहिए, जिससे संदूषण जोखिम कम होंगे और परीक्षण की प्रजनन क्षमता बढ़ेगी।

Certainly lots of maintenance that needs to be done on certain equipment. You'd think, though, that it would be scheduled for a different time than set recording, unless he had a sudden issue with it. Could be legit, or an excuse. How do you really feel about it?

सब कुछ बहुत जल्दी खराब होने जा रहा है! या क्या सचमुच ऐसा है? मैट रिडले के अनुसार नहीं। रिडले मानवता के भविष्य के बारे में एक गहरा आशावादी दृष्टिकोण प्रस्तुत करने के लिए उसके अतीत का एक दीर्घकालिक दृष्टिकोण लेते हैं। इस कार्यक्रम को लॉन्ग नाउ फ़ाउंडेशन, के सहयोग से 22 मार्च, 2011 को रिकॉर्ड किया गया था। इस कार्यक्रम में दृश्य सहायक शामिल हैं। एक पूर्ण वीडियो संस्करण यहां उपलब्ध है: http://fora.tv/2011/03/22/Matt_Ridley_Deep_Optimism व्यापार और अन्य सांस्कृतिक गतिविधियों के माध्यम से, "विचारों ने सेक्स किया है", और समय के साथ निरंतर लेकिन संचित सुधार की दिशा में मानव इतिहास को आगे बढ़ाया है। तबाही के रोने वाले गलत साबित होते रहते हैं। मानवीय मामलों के बारे में एक मौलिक आशावाद गहरा तर्कसंगत है और विश्वसनीय रूप से जोड़ा जा सकता है। जूलॉजिस्ट के रूप में ऑक्सफ़ोर्ड में प्रशिक्षित और आठ वर्षों तक द इकोनॉमिस्ट में एक संपादक, मैट रिडले की सबसे नई किताब द रेशनल ऑप्टिमिस्ट: हाउ प्रॉस्पेरिटी इवॉल्व्स है। उनकी पहले की कृतियों में फ्रांसिस क्रिक; प्रकृति बनाम पोषण; जीनोम; और द ऑरिजिन ऑफ वर्चू शामिल हैं। मैट रिडले की किताबों की 800,000 से अधिक प्रतियां बिक चुकी हैं, उनका 27 भाषाओं में अनुवाद किया गया है और वह छह साहित्यिक पुरस्कारों के लिए शॉर्ट-लिस्टेड हैं। 2004 में उन्होंने प्रकृति बनाम पोषण के लिए यूएस नेशनल एकेडमी ऑफ साइंस, इंजीनियरिंग और मेडिसिन से नेशनल एकेडमी बुक अवार्ड जीता। उन्होंने न्यूरोसाइंटिस्ट प्रोफेसर आन्या हर्लबर्ट से शादी की है। उनके दो बच्चे हैं और वे न्यूकैसल अपॉन टाइन के पास ब्लैगडन में रहते हैं।

ट्रकों को मुक्त करो बिल गेरडेस द्वारा श्रिंप pimp से लेकर बेकन मेनिया से लेकर बॉर्डर ग्रिल तक, फूड ट्रक की घटना इस पल का पाक कलैज्ञानी है। टॉप शेफ के प्रतियोगी फूड ट्रकों में प्रतिस्पर्धा कर चुके हैं, फ़ूड नेटवर्क पर ग्रेट फ़ूड ट्रक रेस है और कुकिंग चैनल पर फ़ूड ट्रक क्रांति है। मोबाइल खाना पकाना न्यूयान पाकगृह विधि है, जहाँ शेफ अपने बीकर को फेंकने और अपने पीछे के आँगन में ट्रेलर को आग लगाने की जल्दी कर रहे हैं। साउथर्न कैलिफ़ोर्निया में हम मोबाइल पाकगृह विधि के मक्का में रहने के लिए भाग्यशाली हैं और विभिन्न स्थानों पर एक अकेले फूड ट्रक या उनमें से एक पूरी कतार देख सकते हैं, जिसमें कई ट्रक हफ़्ते में सातों दिन चलते हैं। शेफ रॉय चुई के कोगी ट्रक इस आंदोलन के ब्रेकआउट सितारे हैं, जो अक्सर फ़्यूज़न से भरे कोरियाई-मेक्सिकन टाकोस के लिए एक घंटे तक की लाइनों को आकर्षित करते हैं। चौई की सफलता ने एक पाक आंदोलन को आगे बढ़ाने में मदद की है जिसने इस क्षेत्र में भोजन का मज़ा लेने के हमारे तरीके को फिर से परिभाषित किया है - जब तक कि कोई IE में नहीं रहता। "एक राष्ट्र जो आपस में बंटा हुआ है, वह खड़ा नहीं रह सकता" यह इस तथ्य के कारण है कि रिवरसाइड और सैन बर्नार्डिनो काउंटी राज्य में केवल दो ऐसे हैं जहाँ अधिकांश फूड ट्रकों पर प्रतिबंध है। हम राज्य के एकमात्र ऐसे नागरिक हैं जो फिशलिप्स सुशी, बटरमिल्क ट्रक और चॉम्प चॉम्प नेशन जैसे नाम वाले ट्रकों का मज़ा नहीं ले सकते। हम डॉगज़िला हॉट डॉग्स और फ्लाइंग पिग ट्रक से वंचित एकमात्र लोग हैं। लिंकन ने प्रसिद्ध रूप से कहा था कि जो राष्ट्र आपस में बंटा हुआ है, वह खड़ा नहीं रह सकता। क्या यह उचित है कि राज्य के अधिकांश हिस्से आज कुछ सबसे क्रिएटिव कुकिंग का आनंद ले सकते हैं जबकि अंतर्देशीय साम्राज्य में हम लोग स्वयं को कभी-कभी होने वाले फूड ट्रक उत्सव तक ही सीमित कर लेते हैं, जो वर्तमान में क्षेत्र में हममें से अधिकांश के लिए इस बात का नमूना लेने का एकमात्र तरीका है कि SoCal के बाकी लोग क्या मानते हैं? उत्सव स्वयं महान हैं, और क्षेत्र के आसपास उनकी संख्या बढ़ रही है। 8 अक्टूबर को ओंटारियो में सिटीजन बैंक एरेना में होने वाला I.E. फ़ूड ट्रक फेस्ट है, दूसरा 11 सितंबर को पोमोना में फेयरप्लेक्स में; जून में दो विशाल थे और एक और रिवरसाइड शहर में, उस राक्षस का पेट जहाँ ट्रकों को पहली बार प्रतिबंधित किया गया था। जबकि त्यौहार अद्वितीय हैं, और एक को विभिन्न प्रकार के भोजन का नमूना लेने को मिलता है, ट्रक टैको को आज़माने के लिए उत्सव की प्रतीक्षा करना थोड़ा चिढ़ का विषय बन जाता है। अगर मुझे ग्रिल्ड चीज़ ट्रक से प्यार हो गया तो क्या मुझे वाकई अगले उत्सव की प्रतीक्षा करनी होगी? या लॉस एंजिल्स के लिए एक घंटे का ड्राइव करना होगा? यहाँ असली सवाल यह है कि क्या त्यौहारों का यह विस्फोट इस बात का संकेत है कि सैन बर्नार्डिनो और रिवरसाइड काउंटी जल्द ही ट्रकों को वैध कर सकते हैं? कि हमें L.A. और OC का स्वाद मिलेगा, जो ट्रक द्वि घातुमान के दौरान धन्य हो गया है? यह फ़ूड राइटर निश्चित ही नर्क के रूप में ऐसा होने की आशा करता है - कोई एक आदमी कितने औसत दर्जे के बर्गर झोंपड़ियों को सहन कर सकता है? रोच कोच बनाम पेटू भोजनालय रिवरसाइड काउंटी ने आधिकारिक तौर पर 1980 में अधिकांश फूड ट्रकों पर प्रतिबंध लगा दिया था। उस समय प्रतिबंध का कोई अर्थ हो सकता है। "रोच कोच" की लोकप्रिय छवि, एक जीर्ण-शीर्ण और खुजलाता ट्रेलर जो गमी अंडे-सलाद सैंडविच परोसता है, पहले से ही अमेरिकी मानस में लोकप्रिय रूप से घुसा हुआ था। और उस समय पर्यवेक्षकों का बोर्ड निस्संदेह यह सुनिश्चित करने के लिए कार्य कर रहा था कि खाद्य जनित रोगाणु काउंटी में अच्छे मतदाताओं से अपने गंदे पंजों को दूर रखें। कई नागरिकों के लिए भयानक हवा की गुणवत्ता, भयानक आवागमन, ब्यूइक्स के आकार के गड्ढों और ऑरेंज या LA काउंटी की तुलना में कम जीवन प्रत्याशा के बावजूद, रिवरसाइड अधिकारी काफी सुरक्षित हैं - जैसे आतिशबाजी की बिक्री पर प्रतिबंध। या उस मामले के लिए फूड ट्रक। इसलिए मोबाइल भोजनालयों पर 31 साल की नाकाबंदी। अध्यादेश संख्या 580 में मनी शॉट लिखा है, "सुरक्षा, अंग, संपत्ति और जनता के सामान्य कल्याण के लिए इस अध्यादेश का उद्देश्य और इरादा कुछ प्रकार की मोबाइल भोजन सुविधाओं के संचालन को प्रतिबंधित करना है।" रिवरसाइड काउंटी में स्वास्थ्य विभाग के लिए कार्यक्रम प्रमुख लिन वाइल्डर इस बात से सहमत हैं कि प्रतिबंध वैध स्वास्थ्य चिंताओं के ज़रिये आया था। उन्होंने जो एक चिंता व्यक्त की वह यह है कि पानी की टंकियाँ अक्सर खाली हो जाती हैं और फिर कर्मचारी अब नहा नहीं सकते हैं या हाथ नहीं धो सकते हैं। वाइल्डर ने यह भी सुझाव दिया कि पर्याप्त रेफ़्रीज्रेशन के बिना एक छोटी सी जगह पर बहुत अधिक भोजन एक समस्या बन सकता है। सच्चाई और मिथक जेथ्रो नौडे, जो शेफ एंड्रयू ग्रुएल के साथ स्लैपफ़िश ट्रक का मालिक है और उसे चलाता है, इन स्वास्थ्य संबंधी चिंताओं को पुराने और पुरानी रूढ़ियों पर आधारित मानता है। जैसा कि वह कहते हैं, "फूड ट्रकों को ग़लत समझा जाता है और उन्हें पुराने रोच कोच के ऊपर स्थान दिया जाता है।" वे यह भी बताते हैं, सबसे ताज़ा और स्वास्थ्यप्रद खाना पकाने की पेशकश करते हैं, कभी-कभार ट्रकों को सबसे ज्यादा तले हुए भोजन पर ध्यान नहीं दिया जाता। जब हम बात कर रहे हैं, जेथ्रो ने मुझे एक "लोबस्टिकल" का नमूना दिया, जो कि मूल रूप से एक कटार पर आधा लॉबस्टर टेल है, साथ ही शायद सबसे अच्छा झींगा बरिटो जो मैंने कभी खाया है। इस समय मेरी एकमात्र स्वास्थ्य संबंधी चिंता यह है कि मैं बहुत अधिक खा रहा हूँ, और मैं स्लैपफ़िश ट्रक की छाया को खुश, भरा-पूरा और आश्वस्त होकर छोड़ता हूँ कि जेथ्रो नौडे इन बेशक छोटे क्षेत्रों के अंदर होने वाले स्वस्थ गुणवत्तापूर्ण खाना पकाने के बारे में सही है। एडवर्ड डेला क्रूज़ और उनके भाई जोसेफ रामिरेज़ रिवरसाइड-आधारित एक पूर्व फ़ूड ट्रक कंपनी, लॉस हरमानोस लोनचेरा सिन फ्रोंटेरा चलाते हैं। भाई अब एक कैटरिंग कंपनी चलाते हैं जो विभिन्न कार्यों में, पार्टियों सहित, कैटर करते समय मोबाइल ग्रिल का उपयोग करती है। डे ला क्रूज़ का कहना है कि फ़ूड ट्रक चलाने के लिए हर दिन इरविन को ड्राइव करना अंततः तनावपूर्ण हो गया और

Fans pack McCovey Cove for Derby Wild scene behind right-field wall at AT&T Park on Monday SAN FRANCISCO -- The All-Star Home Run Derby is always a hot ticket, but to hear one longtime Giants fan and personal watercraft enthusiast tell it Monday, ducats for the Derby were easier to score than a spot in McCovey Cove. When Denny Bahr, a self-described "40-year-old Bay Area half-beatnik," says he missed the boat, he's speaking literally. Bahr, who said he floats in a kayak beyond the right-field wall at AT&T Park during "about 20 or 30" games a season, was among the Cove regulars who were unable to secure the proper registration required for entry into the "security zone" in China Basin Channel. "I'm not mad about having to register at all; I understand the security issues and all that," Bahr said while looking down on the Cove from the right-field Arcade as Ryan Howard of the Phillies took his first-round hacks. "I'm mad at myself. We don't need to register for regular games, but I knew we did for the All-Star stuff, and that the space was limited, and that it was free to register. I just forgot, man. And by the time I remembered, all the permits were gone. "Gone like Bonds." Quick note: The right-field Arcade from which Bahr was looking down -- with palpable sadness -- on the colorful armada below is inside AT&T Park. "I'd rather be down there," he said. "I'm not alone, either. I've heard that a bunch of people who are out there a lot during the season did the same thing. Doesn't make me feel any better, though." Nor did it make him feel any better that the bobbing flotilla -- kayaks, canoes, surfboards, boogie boards, rafts and at least one pair of giant foam waterskis -- saw but one ball drop into their aquatic playground during the entire contest. It was a foul ball, however, so it didn't count. Brewers big man Prince Fielder's drive barely cleared the Portwalk that separates the outside wall of the ballpark and the Cove, and was pulled from the greenish murk within three seconds by a Hawaiian-shirt-wearing man who didn't hesitate to dive off his Giants-orange kayak for the coveted orb. "Did you see that guy, Mommy?" gushed Scotty Kendrick, an 8-year-old from Boston who was clearly awed by the Hawaiian plunge. "He's gonna be really cold in a little while." Kendrick's mother, Janis, said, "Well, it must be worth it to him. That ball might be worth a lot of money, I guess." Actually, Bahr noted, the ball likely wouldn't fetch much. "I'm guessing the balls for this have an All-Star logo [they do], but there's still going to be a lot of them out there on whatever market there is," he said. "And bro, I don't think people are out there on the water trying to make money. Sure, we'd all like to get a Barry Bonds homer, especially a milestone shot. I'd take that golden nugget to the bank, no doubt. But I'm out there because I love the water, I love the people, I love the scene. "It's a scene, man. That's what it's all about." It certainly was a scene Monday, as people occasionally bounded from craft to craft, beverage in hand. Think MTV's Spring Break spectacles at Lake Havasu, Ariz. -- only the cavorters are about 15 years older and wearing, for the most part, a lot more clothes. Speaking of clothes, there is no dress code in the Cove. The sartorial splendor Monday evening included jerseys, swimsuits, wetsuits, fleece jackets, lifejackets, bikinis, board shorts and a couple of pirate costumes. Not Pirates uniforms. Pirate costumes. "No way those people are locals," sniffed Andy Cannon, an 18-year-old from San Francisco who spent the second round strolling the Portwalk, alternately rubbernecking co-eds and joining the spontaneous derisive Dodgers chants that came up from the water every 15 minutes or so. "You see those weak hats? San Fran comes stronger than that." "But I am jealous of the pirates. I'll admit that much. They're in the Cove and I'm not." Mychael Urban is a national writer for MLB.com.

This month’s traffic safety blitz, held over the May long weekend, saw 50 motorists in the province charged with impaired driving, 27 temporary driver’s licence suspensions and 28 tickets for having liquor in a vehicle. The blitz was held in conjunction with Canada Road Safety Week and was timely, as instances of impaired driving tend to increase on long weekends. Throughout the weekend, more than 1,300 tickets were issued to Saskatchewan motorists, including more than 700 for aggressive driving (which includes speeding, failing to stop or yield, crossing a solid line, etc.), more than 120 for improper or non-seatbelt use and almost 60 for distracted driving or cellphone use while driving. According to Staff Sergeant Gord Stewart, charges in the Broadview RCMP Detachment area were up from last year. Broadview RCMP laid a total of 54 charges over the May long weekend. Those charges included: one roadside suspension; three Criminal Code drinking and driving charges; 12 seatbelts; one aggressive driving charge; six distracted driving charges; 15 speeding charges and 16 assorted charges. Through the monthly traffic safety blitzes, SGI and law enforcement partners aim to raise awareness of various traffic safety issues in the province. The ultimate goal is not to issue a certain amount of tickets, but to make our roads safer for all Saskatchewan motorists. Agencies involved included rural and larger municipal services and the RCMP, among others. Last month’s coordinated traffic safety blitz, Operation Hang Up, Buckle Up, resulted in more than 500 tickets for Saskatchewan motorists.

Before your equine athlete starts racing or competing it must have the muscle mass to power its required workload. This work can includes sit and sprint as well as middle and long distance racing, jumping, dressage, eventing, endurance, rodeo, polo, trekking, carts and games. The Hanley Formula is the most powerful muscle building equine supplement available. During hard training, racing and competing the large muscle groups which power the horse are broken down and damaged. The only way to build and repair these muscles is by providing your equine athletes the essential building blocks. The Hanley Formula contains all these building blocks. By using The Hanley Formula your horse can produce and repair its own tendons, connective tissue (collagen) and ligaments. Protein Needs for Exercise |Average 500kg Horse||Light Work||Moderate Work||Hard Work||Very Hard Work| |Protein Needs (Grams per Day)||700||768||862||1000| The Hanley Formula is an amazing supplement. We use it with the young horses for weight gain and top line. It is great for building lean body mass. For our top eventers the amino acids are crucial to maintaining them at the top end of the sport, assisting with muscle recovery and metabolism. We have used Hanley Formula on our stallion Don Quattro for about a year now. We have noticed that he maintained great overall condition right through the competition year without needing extra feed, and in particular his muscle condition was outstanding. Since I've been using The Hanley Formula my horses have raced more consistently, staying at the top of their game for longer. Their muscle tone and recovery are excellent .

If you're wondering what the most promiscuous cities in Canada are, SeekingArrangement.com brings you closer to the answer. The dating website conducted a study to find which cities in Canada boast the most promiscuous (and wealthy) men. The city to top the list was Victoria (maybe the beautiful landscape had something to do with it), followed closely by the nation's capital Ottawa and Alberta's very own capital Edmonton. Story continues below.. Cities are ranked based on the percentage of 'Sugar Daddies' who reported having more than seven sexual partners per year, according to a release by SeekingArrangement.com. But wait... there's more. Guess which cities made it to the bottom of the list? The least promiscuous perhaps? You may be very surprised by the answers.Drum roll please.. the Canadian cities with the least promiscuous men are:

COLUMBUS GROVE, Ohio - A 14-year-old girl was killed and 11 other people were injured when a car struck a church van filled with youngsters in southern Putnam County yesterday, authorities said. Jasmin Wickard of Leipsic, who was riding in a van belonging to the Harvest Assembly of God Church of West Leipsic, was declared dead at St. Rita's Medical Center in Lima three hours after the 4:45 p.m. crash, troopers from the State Highway Patrol's Lima post said. The crash, at the intersection of State Rt. 65 and County Road O, a mile north of Columbus Grove, occurred when a car traveling west on Road O failed to stop at a stop sign and struck the van, troopers said. Aloysius Warnecke, 91, of Columbus Grove was driving the car that hit the van, driven by John Nieto, 23, of Leipsic. The van was heading south on Route 65. The van was carrying nine passengers, including: Two other unidentified passengers were flown to St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center, Toledo; and two other unidentified passengers were taken to St. Rita's Ambulatory Care Center in Glandorf, Ohio, where Mr. Nieto also was taken.

When former Town manager Roy Keane released his new book this week, there was frantic media attention. Peregrine Cuttlefish, society columnist for the East Anglian Daily Times from 1871 – 1903, occasional Turnstile Blues contributor, and the only man to have spent three solid hours flicking rubber bands at Charles Dickens’s nose, instantly recognised the potential for a meeting of wizened minds, and was first in the queue for an interview. We are proud to present the full text of what can quite literally be described as a historic encounter. Transcribed by Gavin Barber. Peregrine Cuttlefish: Thank you, Mr Keane, for agreeing to an interview. When I read your book I realised that we should meet. We have each spent our lives at the very forefront of history: living and shaping the moments that define our respective eras. Roy Keane: You say that. I could agree with it or not agree with it. It doesn’t matter. PC: One notices straight away your antipathy towards Sir Alex Ferguson, a man whom you chastise for being distracted by horses. This instantly reminded me of Thomas Hardy, who was notorious for tearing up drafts of his latest novel if he saw a moth in the room. A little-known fact is that Far From The Madding Crowd was only completed because me and a troupe of jobbing performers from the Lambeth Music Hall were on a 24-hour patrol outside his study, swatting moths with our banjos lest any should disturb Hardy’s concentration. Did you ever meet him? RK: Thomas Hardy? Aye, a miserable fuck. Sure he could pull a sentence together but why be so bitter about everything? I look back on what I achieved as a footballer and see no acknowledgement of that in Hardy’s work. None at all. That to me seems disrespectful. I’ve no time for the man. PC: There’s a passage in the book in which you say that Sunderland chairman Ellis Short spoke to you “like you were something on the bottom of his shoe”. I remember Queen Victoria herself saying this after an unfortunate encounter with the King of Norway. What are your views on the dowager empress? RK: Queen Victoria? Ah, listen. She’s achieved a lot, there’s no doubt about that. But I don’t get the need to be flouncing around with the big black dresses and the moody face. OK, so the guy with the knob-ring died. Get over it, move on. The way I see it, you look back over some of the proper monarchs, your Henry Vs and what have you, and they never saw the need for that sort of showboating. They just got their heads down and got on with the business of oppressing people. I just don’t get why Victoria had to show off like that. Why the flouncing? Can’t be doing with it. PC: Thinking back over my own time as one of the leading lights of the literary circuit, I recall a cocktail party in Woodbridge in which Lady Login-Error of Shotley caused quite the stir by reading to the assembled company from her diaries. She shocked the guests by revealing that she had tapped a servant-girl across the ankles for insolence. Your new book reveals several such confrontations. Is this a regular feature of your life? RK: Listen, I’m no different from anyone else. People think I’m this kind of monster, always getting wound up and fighting people, but I’m just a normal guy. Yeah, I’ve had a few rucks. Jon Walters and Pablo at Ipswich, that’s in the book. Schmeichel at Man United too. And yeah, it happens occasionally. I was in the hotel this morning and there weren’t enough hash browns at the breakfast buffet. I don’t even like hash browns. It shouldn’t matter to me. But it’s about standards of professionalism. So, yeah, I smashed up the kitchen and pinned the chef against the wall. But it’s just part of life. Happens to anyone. PC: You’ve said in the book that when you were a player you had a ‘character’ that you got into, and that all sports professionals are, to an extent, playing a role. I was fortunate enough to spend some time in the company of your fellow countryman George Bernard Shaw. Like you, he was perceived by some as a troublemaker: in reality he was studious and diligent, but with a playful side. I remember one occasion when we were dining at White’s with Horry Walpole: Shaw carefully arranged all the peas on his plate into a perfect pyramid, then toppled it just as the Prince of Wales walked past our table. The bumbling royal lost his footing amidst the leguminous sea, and clattered face-first into the Duke of Fife’s sherry trifle. Shaw was roaring with laughter. Which of the classical thespians did you follow in developing your role as a footballer? I thought I could see Stanislavski’s influence in the fight with Alan Shearer in 2001 which got you a red card. RK: Sure, there’s an element of acting there. Stanislavski is nonsense though. Method acting? Don’t give me that. You’re either in character or you’re not. What business do you have calling yourself a professional if you’ve got to immerse yourself for hours? Get in there, do the job, get the fuck off the stage. PC: And finally Mr Keane: a contemporary of mine was Charles Darwin, who like you attracted disdain, opprobrium and horror in his own time, only to be regarded as a visionary in later years. What are your views on human evolution? Have we reached optimum physicality or can we adapt further? Do you think it will ever be physically possible to… RK: Stick it up your bollocks. Roy Keane’s new book, Stuff That Makes Me Cross When I Think About It, is out now. Peregrine Cuttlefish’s memoirs are due to be published just as soon as he remembers the details of that hilarious thing that Edward Elgar once did with a goldfish. In the meantime, an excerpt can be found in the new issue of Turnstile Blues, on sale at Portman Road next Saturday or via this website soon afterwards.

Entries for month: April 2013 The forecast for the weekend was almost perfect for bicycling in February, in Montana. Our plan was to ride from Bozeman to the tiny cowboy town of Pony, 55 miles away. There we would set up camp and stash the bikes in the forest, in order to climb and ski Hollowtop, the highest peak in the Tobacco Root Mountains. This would be the third peak in my 7 Summits Of Bozeman project, a five-month plan to climb and ski the highest peak in each of the seven mountain ranges that surround Bozeman -- completing the entire project 100 percent human-powered, traveling only by bicycle, by foot, and on skis. Check out our Bike Overnights Flickr Group, where we're proud to have 139 members. Looking for an easy, reasonably priced weekend getaway that involves only a bike, a credit card and a Vancouver Island ferry ride? A few years ago John and I did a fantastic trip that involved just those things. It started with a drive to the Tsawwassen ferry terminal, about 45 minutes away from downtown Vancouver. Check out our Bike Overnights Flickr Group, where you'll find a whole lot more photos. I had an idea for our anniversary. Usually we get away for a four-day pedal sometime in September, but with my other plans eating up time we weren't sure it would happen this year. I'd miss that time alone as a couple, so I suggested a simple bike overnight. This means more to us than any restaurant celebration. Like this shot? Check out our Bike Overnights Flickr Group, where we're proud to claim 139 members! My thought process for this ride was simple: Leave the car at home, and ride somewhere nice for an overnight that's a minimum of 50 miles away. I looked at the map and quickly noticed the "lake to lake" possibility as an option. Done, now let's gather the goods and begin riding. This is a solo trip for me. If you go with friends or family members, you can share the load and it won't be as heavy for any one person.

This lively rock musical of the final days of Jesus Christ is a supercharged rendition of a superstar. The idea of putting His life on the stage and screen in this manner was and continues to be offensive to some people. To others, however, it is exactly what needs to be done with the story of Jesus. We need to have people see and feel the electricity of this spiritual story. The movie is shot on location in Israel and benefits substantially from the wonderful natural rock formations in the desert as well as the ancient Roman ruins that are used as backdrops for the film. The opening scene shows us a group of actors arriving on location and getting into their costumes and the final scene is of these same persons getting back on the bus and leaving. Three key characters dominate the movie and sing most of the songs. They are Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and Judas. Mary is portrayed loving and accepting---she has been powerfully changed by Jesus' message even though she doesn't fully understand why. Judas is doubting, cautious, scared, and accusatory---he wants to believe but feels Jesus should pay more attention to Judas' warnings. It is only at the end, after he has already betrayed Jesus, that he realizes how much he loves him. At this point he sings the song that Mary sang earlier in the film about loving Jesus but not understanding why. Although we know the ending and that this movie is about very important spiritual issues and ultimately about pain, suffering and death; it is told in an exciting, joyful manner through the vibrant music. Another wonderful touch is the scene where Jesus is taken before Herod. All of a sudden the music is no longer with a rock beat. Instead it is ragtime and the scene is played for laughs. It is a way of reminding us all that we must nourish our lightness, our sense of humor is essential if we are going to get through the darkest of moments. Music is one of the most important ways that humans can get in touch with their spiritual dimension. This musical helps to do just that and more. By balancing Judas and Mary in the script, it is also helping you see the importance of overcoming your resistance to change and the need to let go and change even when you don't quite understand what is happening to you. Not all things are explainable. Sometimes you have to act on faith. Clearly the story of Jesus Christ is worth singing about. We have written a thousand hymns in his honor to glorify God. The idea of putting the story into the rock idiom helps us more fully appreciate the idea of remembrance of Him through breaking of bread, His body, and drinking of wine, His blood. We need to build spirituality into our everyday lives. We need habits and rituals to assist us in not forgetting to value our spirit, to nurture that spirit, to love that dimension of what being human is all about. I also like the movie as it is a way of saying that each and every one of us can build God and spiritual dimensions into our profession lives just as these musicians and artists have done in their creation of this movie. How can you incorporate God and spiritual issues into your professional work?

is the restaurant and lounge in the new Four Seasons Hotel. The building also houses private, luxury condominiums. The restaurant name comes from the hotel and restaurant’s proximity to the Seattle Art Museum. Many of the dishes are served in ways evocative of painting or other creative endeavors. Kerry Sears, the former chef/owner of Cascadia is now at Art after closing his own place. We miss Cascadia but are happy that he continues to bring his creative combinations to to the table. Thursday before starting our stroll through galleries and studios open for Seattle’s First Thursday Art Walk , M and I stopped by for sustenance to fuel our walk. The lounge (and I believe the dining room, too) are on the West side of the building where there are views of Puget Sound broken by some industrial buildings along Western Avenue. I liked the yin/yang of this arrangement, sitting in a plush lounge while looking at a nitty-gritty view, as I think it’s a part of what makes Seattle, Seattle. We arrived for the start of happy hour in the lounge, which offers several small plates and drinks for $5. Always a sucker for an interesting sounding cocktail, I ordered a Bellini Martini which combines elements from both drinks into one peachy libation. Made from vodka, pureed peaches and Prosecco it was refreshing and tasted of summer. M had a lemon drop (not on the happy hour menu) and said it was wonderful, too. For our first course we sampled the Blue Shrimp which is served with Horseradish and Bloody Mary Dressing. The combination was outstanding. The shrimp was so fresh it tasted as if it had been just brought in especially for our order. Horseradish is finely grated over the shrimp (be careful if you are not a horseradish fan) and the dressing is served in a tiny little glass, complete with a sprig of celery. I actually took a little swig of it and it would have made a perfect aperitif, too. It was hard deciding what else to choose but we opted to try the tuna roll and sliders, something Kerry was famous for at Cascadia. Of course everything here comes with it’s own little twist. The tuna roll was elevated with jalapeños, crisp garlic, daikon shoots and wasabi cream. The presentation was beautiful as was the tuna and the overall taste combination. We ended with a plate of sliders, which are available in either beef or in a vegetarian style. The condiments for the sliders were served as if they were paint on a pallet, which was both beautiful and fun. The only slightly disappointing note of the evening was that we’d ordered a side of mushrooms with our sliders and they were overlooked. Not a big deal at all, but I call it out only because I think the servers here had a few too many tables to handle which showed in a couple of other small ways, too. It’s understandable that with the low prices for this quality food that Art is watching costs. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed Art. The ambience of the lounge is plush without being fussy. I think it will be a nice, cozy place to hang out when the darker days of winter set in, too. Happy hour is an outstanding deal. I’ll need to get back to sample an actual dinner here some time soon. Located in the Four Seasons Hotel 99 Union Street

Now we know we cannot trust this man. I guess he has a candor issue himself. Today on Bloomberg, commissioner Adelstein stated that he had not heard from Sirius / Xm regarding his proposals and hoped to meet with them next week. Yet what do we have here? A filing from today outlining a meeting that took place yesterday between Adelstein and Mel Karmazin in which Mel stuck to his guns ! http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/prod/ecfs/r...ent=6520034789On July 17, 2008, Mel Karmazin, Chief Executive Officer of Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. (“Sirius”), and Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein discussed conditions and objections to the merger, possible modifications to the voluntary commitment letter previously filed in the above referenced proceeding, and pending enforcement issues. Mr. Karmazin reiterated positions consistent with Sirius’ filings in this proceeding, and urged prompt approval of the pending merger.

Return to Toolbox Main. CDC's Active Community Environments Initiative ACES promotes walking, bicycling, and the development of accessible recreation facilities. It was developed in response to data from a variety of disciplines, including public health, urban design, and transportation planning. These data suggest characteristics of our communities such as proximity of facilities, street design, density of housing, availability of public transit and of pedestrian and bicycle facilities play a significant role in promoting or discouraging physical activity. These resources can be useful for local health departments looking to work with other sectors on a health in all policies (HiAP) approach. They provide strategies and guides on how policies on active living can improve health outcomes that local health departments can share with planning and zoning commissions.

For the second time in four years, the Red Sox are in the World Series. And just like last time, they measured the depths of the degree-of-difficulty scale. The 2007 team didn't have to come back from 3-0 like its '04 predecessors. But coming back from 3-1 down against the Indians in the American League Championship Series was still an impressive accomplishment that will go down in the annals of franchise lore. How have the Red Sox -- a team once identified by late-season disappointment -- transformed into the team that always seems to come back in October? "I just think when you're in this kind of pressure cooker, you can either fold and kind of implode, or you can relax and be yourself," said Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein. "That's what our guys do: they relax and stay themselves. None of the circumstances bother them." The World Series begins Wednesday at Fenway Park, when the Red Sox host the Rockies at 8 p.m. ET on FOX. But before that spectacle begins, it's worth looking back for a minute at what Boston accomplished not just in the ALCS, but the body of work it has put together in recent Octobers. Beginning with the 1999 postseason, the Red Sox are 14-3 when they face elimination. Jason Varitek and Tim Wakefield are the only two players who have been a part of the team for all 17 of those games, and much of it speaks to the leadership of the captain. After all, it was Varitek who sat in front of his locker for as long as the media wanted when the Sox lost Game 4 to the Tribe at Jacobs Field last Tuesday and continued to keep a firm resolve about him. "We've got a one-pitch playoff every pitch," Varitek reminded everyone after Game 4. "We have to go out there with that intensity. We've got to play one pitch at a time, literally. We have to create our own opportunities. We've got to outplay our opponents." The Red Sox turned Varitek into a prophet. They did all of those things for the remainder of the series and kept such concentration that they never again trailed. But Varitek doesn't just lead the ship by himself. Third baseman Mike Lowell is another leader who remembered the experience of bouncing back from a 3-1 deficit with the Marlins against the Cubs in the 2003 National League Championship Series. Josh Beckett and Curt Schilling -- postseason stalwarts both of them -- wanted the ball with the season on the line, and they delivered. David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez wanted to be at the plate in all the big spots, and continually they delivered. So did core players like Lowell, Kevin Youkilis and rookie Dustin Pedroia. And in dire situations, sometimes even Manny being Manny can help. Ramirez is no media darling, but he decided to turn into one once the Red Sox got into that 3-1 deficit. While some of the national media jumped on him for his carefree words, his teammates appreciated the levity. "I think Manny put it really well," said Sox right fielder J.D. Drew. "There was always next year in his mind. That just kind of shows you how relaxed we were, the worst case [being] we were going home and the best case, 'Hey, we're moving on to the World Series.'" Sure, the Red Sox lost three in a row to the Indians to fall in the 3-1 hole, but they never lost their resolve. "Nobody got down on each other," said Pedroia. "We kept battling. We knew if we won [Game 5] in Cleveland, we'd have a chance. Josh went out and we all jumped on his back, pretty much. He carried us through that game. Once we got back here, Schill did great and everything came together, and here we are -- we're still playing." Is it character or talent that helps a team perform so well when the margin for error is zero? "I think you have to have both," said Red Sox manager Terry Francona. "If you have one without the other, you're not going to make it. We managed to play ourselves into a deficit, but we managed to play ourselves out if it. I just think the mentality is always the same, every day. You play nine innings or whatever it takes." To a man, the Red Sox seemed to agree that the biggest key to the comeback was to look at each at-bat, inning and game as an almost individual entity. "We were not going to give up until the last out," said Lowell. "I think we did a great job of taking Game 5 as the most important game and not looking ahead. And then Game 6 and then Game 7. We weren't worried about [Fausto] Carmona when we had to face [C.C.] Sabathia. I think we were very focused in that sense. But it starts with the pitching. Josh did it, Schill did it and Daisuke [Matsuzaka] did it, for the most part." In truth, it takes nearly everyone playing a role to win three successive must-win games. "It's exactly like '04, just a different team," said Wakefield. "Your back is against the wall and you had to win. You had to win the first night to get to the second night, and that's the philosophy we all took." Once again, that philosophy was executed to perfection, and the reward was a trip to the World Series. Ian Browne is a reporter for MLB.com.

I need to sort an arraylist that contains a list of individual object. Each individual object contains an arraylist of addresses. Could someone suggest what design pattern is suitable to perform the sorting? Kyle, Unfortunately, this is what I am doing. Since I don't know the list size until runtime, I use nested vectors. The outer one contains a list of individual (last name, first name, date of birth,...), and the nested one contains a list of addresses(current address, previous address, ...). You indicated my code is smell. Could you give me some suggestions or point me to the document where I can clean it up. For the sorting, I had a class that implements comparator and used Collections.sort(List, Comparator) method to perform the sort. My pseudo code for the compare() method 1. Compare last name, first name, date of birth,... for the outer vector. 2. If decision cannot be made (they are all equals) then a. Sort the inner lists (the address vectors) b. Loop through the list and compare street num, street name, city, ... What I am asking is the design pattern. Do you know any design pattern I can apply? Thanks in advance. Joined: Aug 10, 2001 Joey, your question isn't quite clear to me. Which are you sorting? The list of individuals, the list of addresses of each individual or both? Joined: Apr 20, 2001 Kyle, It is both. I have a master list that contains many individuals. Each individual, in turn, can contain zero or more addresses. I would like to sort the master list. Master List 1------>* Individual 1------>* addresses Individual contains last name, first name, middle name, gender, date of birth and a list of addresses. Address contains street number, street name, apartment, city, state ,zip At runtime, a user can specify the fields to be sorted and the sort order. Say a user wants to sort the master list in this order: last name, first name, city, and state. If last name and first name of two individual objects are different, compareTo() method will return either negative or positive number. If they happen to be the same, then city and state in the address objects are compared. If I understand correctly, you really only need to sort the outer list of individuals; the fact that each individual may have multiple addresses might not really matter. In this case, I would have the class used for the individuals implement methods like get_primary_city(), get_primary_state(). Then when you write your comparator, it first compares the names of the individuals, and if those are the same, it compares primary city or state, &c. Alternatively, your comparator can first compare the names of the individuals, then compare the address arrays of the individuals using whatever method you choose (e.g., whoever has more addresses goes first or whatever, if tied, use information from the first address, then the second, or whatever). Joined: Apr 20, 2001 The columns to be sorted are known at runtime. They can be just columns in individual object, columns in both individual object and address objects, or just columns in address object. If they are just city and state, the sort will be performed just on the nested object (address object). I am searching for a design pattern to solve the puzzle.

California uses the Academic Performance Index (API) to measure annual school performance and year-to-year improvement. Monta Vista High School's 2012 base score was 949 and the school did meet its 2012 school-wide growth target. In 2010, Monta Vista High School had 26 students for every full-time equivalent teacher. The California average is 24 students per full-time equivalent teacher. Student Ethnicity (2011) Students Per Teacher (2010) Subsidized Lunch (2011) District Spending (2010) All Grades Algebra II Performance Monta Vista High School Reviews I attended from 1998-2002 and liked it well enough. It is a very academic high school, lots of smart kids and teachers. We have athletic teams that range from pretty bad to excellent. The student population has a lot of very outgoing people who are willing to found/attend/organize lots of clubs, activities and the like. I'd definitely recommend MV, the classes might be tough, but you learn a lot and I felt those classes prepared you very well for college level courses. This school is very good. Only teachers need to emphasise more on the importance of STAR test scores.

Activity time: 5 minutes Materials for Activity - Chalice or LED/battery-operated candle - Cloth for altar or centering space - Opening Words for Basket (Session 1, Leader Resource 1), and basket - Symbol of earth, such as a rock, bowl of dirt, crystal, etc. - Newsprint with "Now Let Us Sing" lyrics (Session 1, Activity 2) - Optional: Session 1, Leader Resource 2, "Now Let Us Sing," Hymn 368 in Singing the Living Tradition - Optional: A copy of the Unitarian Universalist hymnbook, Singing the Living Tradition Preparation for Activity - Set up the chalice on the cloth to create an altar area or centering space. - If you have not already done so, print Session 1, Leader Resource 1, Opening Words for Basket; cut out the short readings and place them in the basket. Feel free to add additional readings over the course of the program. - Make sure you know which children at the previous session volunteered to be this session's worship leaders. - Make sure you know and can lead the Sing to the Power theme song, a "zipper" song based on "Now Let Us Sing," Hymn 368 in Singing the Living Tradition. You can listen to each melodic part (Part 1 and Part 2) and the two parts sung together here. You may want to invite a guest or a volunteer to help lead the song, perhaps to lead half the group in singing one of the two melodic parts. - Post the newsprint with "Now Let Us Sing" lyrics (from Session 1, Activity 2). Add the words "roots that hold" for this session and leave space to add new phrases in future sessions. Description of Activity The opening ritual for this program invites children to practice leadership and experience the power of a group coming together in sacred space. Gather the children in a circle around the chalice. Invite them to take a deep breath, release it, and create a deep silence for a moment. Invite the day's opening worship leader to select a reading from the Opening Words Basket and read it aloud (or, to read aloud the reading they prepared after the previous session). Place the earth symbol on the cloth, saying, "I bring this symbol of earth, the ground on which we all stand together." As needed, assist the worship leader to light the chalice. Sing "Sing to the Power." Include the zipper words from the previous session ("earth below") and add today's zipper words, "roots that hold." Invite participants to hold hands in a circle. Explain, in these words or your own: Each time the group meets, we will focus on ways we find and express our power. As part of each opening circle, we will send a pulse of energy, or power, around the circle. Begin the power pulse by squeezing the hand of the person to your left, who will then squeeze the hand of the person to their left, followed by each person in rapid succession. Send the power pulse around the circle several times. Conclude the power pulse. While still holding hands, ask the group to take a deep breath together, bringing their hands up as they breathe in, and bringing their hands down as they breathe out. Return the reading to the Opening Words Basket and extinguish the chalice. Including All Participants Some participants may be uncomfortable being touched. Offer the opportunity to opt out of the circle during the time when participants are holding hands for the power pulse. For more information contact email@example.com.

BAGHDAD: Iraq’s move to inspect Iranian aircraft flying to Syria may appease the United States but also shows how the crisis in Damascus has pushed Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki into an ever more delicate balancing act between his two main allies. When Maliki’s faced a parliamentary revolt this year, he could count on Tehran to pull strings of influence over restive fellow Shiite politicians in Iraq’s majority community that saw the Iraqis quickly fall in line again behind the Shiite premier. But after the United States complained publicly that Iran was using Iraqi airspace to fly arms and men to help President Bashar Assad fight Western-backed rebels, Iraq’s government has told Washington it will inspect Iranian flights at random. Nine years after U.S. forces ousted Iraq’s Sunni dictator Saddam Hussein, and nine months after they finally pulled out of the country, Maliki is heavily reliant on Tehran, Washington’s enemy. He leans on Iran for political support at home and for backing in a Sunni-dominated region where he has few friends. But he still needs the Americans, too – for military aid, in part, but also as Iraq seeks global investment and trading access for an oil industry it is struggling to rebuild. And all the while, with the Syrian civil war inflaming historic confrontations in the Middle East between Sunni and Shiite Muslims, and between Arabs and Persians, Maliki is trying to carve out space for Iraq’s – and his own – interests. “We are trying to take an independent position, based on our national interests,” Foreign Minister Hoshiyar Zebari told Reuters recently in explaining Iraq’s Syria policy. “We are trying to differentiate ourselves. Things are not black and white.” Iraq says it has a policy of non-interference in Syria – but stays close to Tehran’s position by refusing to endorse Western and Arab League demands for the removal of Assad, whose Alawite minority faith is an offshoot of Shiite Islam. For Maliki – who once found refuge in Syria and Iran as a Shiite Islamist activist fleeing Saddam – a defeat for Assad that put Damascus under the control of Sunni Islamists could add to the threat he already faces from a Sunni insurgency blamed for the kind of attacks that killed over 30 Iraqis Sunday. “We reject attempts to bring down the regime by force, because it will leave a wider crisis in the region,” Maliki has said. That concern, rather than any pressure from Tehran, appears to drive the Iraqi premier, diplomats and Iraqi officials say. “Maliki is fundamentally looking after Maliki’s interests,” one diplomat involved in the region said. “Relations with Iran may be part of that. But I don’t think Iran’s interest will trump Maliki’s domestic interests.” Maliki is keenly aware of the benefits of keeping Iran on board. Tehran helped secure his premiership into a second term in 2010 by persuading fractious Shiite parties to join forces and outmaneuver Sunnis, Kurds and independent groups. At the same time, Washington’s sway over a leader whom it once saw as more mindful of U.S. interests than other Shiite candidates had faded, even before the troop withdrawal. Maliki, aware of nationalist sensitivity, said Iraq could not support a small U.S. force staying on by extending troops’ legal immunity. However, Washington still has weight it can pull with Maliki, as the appeasing move on Iranian flights to Syria demonstrated. “Maliki will never risk his relationship with the U.S.,” said Iraqi Shiite lawmaker Amir al-Kinani. “But he will send a message saying they must support him to stay in power ... This has nothing to do with religion, for Maliki or for Iran – it’s about interests.” Washington has allowed $2 billion in weapons sales to Iraq in 2012 alone, including a recently completed purchase of U.S.-made tanks. Baghdad will soon take delivery of more than 30 F-16 fighters that will be the backbone of its new air force. U.S. military officers engaged in training programs also still operate out of the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad. With President Barack Obama campaigning for re-election, some in the United States have suggested pressing Iraq harder to distance itself from Iran. But U.S. diplomats are wary of exerting pressure that might have the opposite effect on Maliki. The State Department rejected a call for aid to Baghdad to be threatened if Iraq did not block Iranian flights to Syria. “Maliki has a variety of reasons for wanting Assad to stay in power. The fact Iran shares this preference will tend to promote stronger relations,” said Stephen Biddle, professor at George Washington University. “That does not mean Maliki will ignore U.S. preferences ... He wants help wherever he can get it, and the United States can provide arms of the kind and quality Iranians cannot.” Syria’s crisis, and how the increasingly sectarian turmoil develops there, remains a major question mark over how Maliki will manage future relations with Washington and Tehran. Already Maliki’s relationship with Assad is complex. At the height of the Sunni insurgency in Iraq, Iraqi Shiite leaders slammed Damascus for letting foreign militants, including Al-Qaeda fighters, slip over their desert border. Members of Saddam’s Baath party, long estranged from the Syrian wing of the movement led by Assad, also found refuge in Syria. However, Maliki has since developed a more pragmatic relationship with Damascus, not least as the prospect grows of Syria falling to a hard-line Sunni revolt that could the reignite Iraq. How Maliki manages Syria now depends on whether – or how – Assad’s regime falls. More Western and Arab intervention in Syria that might ease Assad out in favor of a broad-based Syrian government could be a relief for Baghdad. But a messy collapse, and the rise of a hostile Sunni regime next door, may drive a threatened Maliki closer to Iran; Tehran in turn may increase its focus on Baghdad if it loses Damascus. “I suspect the Iranians are going to be very dismayed by the collapse of Syria and the loss of their ally and will redouble their efforts in Iraq,” said Kenneth Pollack at the Brookings Institute’s Saban Center for Middle East Policy in Washington. “Both those things are probably going to make it harder for Maliki to chart an independent course.”

Cisco made undisclosed extensions to the Tensilica instruction set. None of them address virtualization, something already supported in server processors and a hot topic in networking. "We looked closely at that and concluded we did not need it," Jayaram said. The nPower also marks a new level of design reuse for Cisco, which intends to roll variants of the chip with faster speeds and different feature sets. "Cisco is becoming a lot more thoughtful in creating unified architectures across product families, deliberately intended to serve broad sets of platforms," Jayaram said. The chip follows the lineage of Cisco's CRS-1 ASIC that emerged about a decade ago. Cisco followed up with another three or more generations leading to the nPower. Cisco did not disclose several details of the chip including its clock rate and power consumption, presumably because the numbers might seem unflattering. "I have to say the [disclosed] stats are a little underwhelming actually, it doesn't sound like that big an upgrade from the prior generation design," said Bob Wheeler, a communications analyst at The Linley Group (Mountain View, Calif.). Technically, a 400 Gbit/s router should be able to handle 600 million packets/second, not the 300M packets/s Cisco claims for the nPower, Wheeler said. Alcatel-Lucent announced the first 400G router ASIC -- a two-chip set -- in June 2011. It shipped last year in routers with dual 100G channels. Merchant supplier EZChip is now sampling its NP5, another 400G router chip, Wheeler added. Huawei recently began selling a 400G router, said another market watcher. When told the chip is larger than 23mm on a die, Wheeler added, "that's a big honking chip!" Cisco rolled three models of the NCS core router family.

Grounds for Judicial Review: New Developments Metadata:Show full item record Citation:Donnelly, Catherine, Grounds for Judicial Review: New Developments, Judicial Review; Recent Developments, Trinity College Dublin, 27 June 2009, 2009, School of Law, TCD The aim of this paper is to consider important recent cases dealing with the grounds for judicial review, such as: (i) jurisdictional error; (ii) procedural fairness; (iii) control of discretionary power; and (iv) legitimate expectations and fettering of discretion. It is not intended to provide a comprehensive overview of all these areas, and instead, attention will be focussed on particular cases, whether because they reveal an interesting application of well-established principles or because they may be illustrative of evolutionary trends in the law.

Oxbow upsets Orb in Preakness “He don’t want any?” a man asked, considering jockeys usually shower their horses, too. Stevens shook his head from his perch atop Oxbow, the wire-to-wire winner of the 138th Preakness. “Ain’t even tired,” he said. Stevens, a 50-year-old grandfather who came out of a seven-year retirement at the beginning of the year, used a daring ride to clinch an anti-climatic second leg of the Triple Crown at Pimlico Race Course on Saturday. His win gave trainer D. Wayne Lukas, 77, a 14th win in Triple Crown races, setting a new record. His first one also came at Preakness, in 1980 with Codex. Asked if he appreciated this one more, Lukas said quickly, “Yes, yes, definitely. At 77, I do. Yes. The first one, I thought I was going to win quite a few more.” Oxbow ran the mile-and-three-sixteenths in 1:57.54 and never faced a serious challenge. He won by 13/4 lengths. Going off with 15-1 odds, he paid $32.80 on a $2 dollar bet to win, $12 to place and $6.80 to show. Itsmyluckyday was second ($7.80 and $5.00), and Mylute finished third ($5.20). Heavy favorite Orb, the Kentucky Derby winner, ended up being unable to overcome having to start along the rail. He began his move along the backstretch and briefly moved into third place, but jockey Joel Rosario could not swing out into open space. “I just think he got himself in a position where he wasn’t real comfortable,” Orb’s trainer Shug McGaughey said. “And without the pace scenario in front of him, where they weren’t spread out a little more, that probably affected him more than anything.” Orb was vying to become the 13th horse since 1978 to go to Belmont with a chance to become the 12th Triple Crown winner. Affirmed last achieved the feat in 1978. “I get paid to spoil dreams,” said Lukas, whose last Preakness winner, Charismatic, had won the Derby but finished third in the Belmont. Lukas had been tied for most wins in Triple Crown races with “Sunny” Jim Fitzsimmons, but he hadn’t won one since 2000. He never lost faith — or stopped entering his horses. His Will Take Charge finished seventh Saturday, while Titletown Five was ninth after moving ahead of Orb going into the second turn, which seemed to make the colt uncomfortable. “The thing about it is, you get up every day and look for that one that you maybe can do something with,” Lukas said. “As long as we’ve got something to work with, we’re going to be around.” Oxbow also returned Calumet Farm, the dominant racing outfit of the middle of last century, to the Triple Crown. The farm had produced eight Kentucky Derby winners from 1941 to 1968, including Triple Crown winners Whirlaway (1941) and Citation (1948), as well as seven previous Preakness winners. It campaigned Alydar, Affirmed’s chief rival, but has declined since then and was nearly lost to development in the early 1990s. It is now run by Brad Kelley, a billionaire who made his fortune in tobacco and is one of the top five landowners in the country, according to Forbes. He leases the 800-acre property from the Calumet Investment Group, which bought the farm for about $40 million last year. The members of the ownership group have not been named. Kelly did not attend the race, and he was represented by his daughter, Erin, who declined to speak with reporters beside a brief television interview after the race. “What a story this is,” Lukas said. “I’m happy for Gary and I’m just happy for Mr. Kelley. He’s trying to revitalize Calumet, and now Calument is back in a Classic race. That’s just very gratifying.” Stevens won his third Preakness; he’s also won the other two legs of the Triple Crown three times each. Though Lukas said he’d given Stevens no specific instructions except to react to the race in front of him, Oxbow’s two other wins had come after going to the lead early. In the Kentucky Derby, Stevens said Oxbow got closed off down the stretch but was “breathing fire” after crossing the finish line in sixth. That gave him confidence that Oxbow, a smallish bay colt bought as a yearling for $250,000, could handle the Preakness. As Stevens came around the turn, he thought his horse would tense due to late-closing challengers — the horse usually knows before the rider — but instead he went easily over the finish line. “I came into the stretch so loaded,” Stevens said. “I couldn’t believe that no one challenged me going into the far turn, but when no one did I said, ‘I think everybody’s in trouble right now.” Aching knees forced Stevens into retirement in 2005, and he worked as a racing analyst, jockey agent, trainer and actor. Spurred on by the success of 47-year-old friend Mike Smith, he began training late last year and dropped 25 pounds to come back. He teamed with Lukas — who saddled him for his first Triple Crown win, the 1988 Kentucky Derby — again as both faced questions about their fading careers. Lukas won the Belmont in 2000; Stevens won both the Preakness and Belmont in 2001. Stevens found early success in California this year, but he won just three races in the highly competitive Keenland meet leading into the Kentucky Derby. At Churchill Downs, he was shut out. “I thought maybe my business was lacking, maybe this was a mistake,” he said. “I’ve been questioning myself.” But Lukas felt good about Oxbow’s chances and relayed that message to Stevens, who did not arrive in Baltimore until late in the week. Lukas told reporters, too, that he wouldn’t be here if he didn’t think he could win. Each morning, Lukas hopped on his pony and accompanied his horses to the track. That has been his life since the 1970s, when he left a career as a teacher and basketball coach to get into the horse racing business. Divorced five times, he joked after the Preakness that it is impossible to hold a training licenses and marriage license at the same time. “Dedicate yourself completely to the game, and if you work, it will probably come,” he said. Lukas said he planned to take his horses back to Louisville on a van leaving Baltimore at 4:30 a.m. today, with only a few stops at Wendy’s planned along the way. Always tanned and appearing in crisply creased shirts and expensive boots, Lukas has said he has no plans of doing anything with his life but sticking to the routine he has kept for four decades. As he walked away from Stevens — whose comeback is now unlikely to sag as it did in Kentucky — Lukas raised a hand and said he’d be in touch. “I love you,” he said. Stevens said the same thing back.

Updates on America's Shameful War on Drugs, Which Has Spread to Mexico and Killed 55,000 Reason? In the last 20 years, 30 motel customers have been arrested on drug-dealing charges, which represents 1/20th of 1% of the 125,000 rooms that have been rented out during that time. Mr. Caswell is fighting the seizure of his property and is being represented by the Institute for Justice. But even if he prevails in court, it's shameful that the case has gotten this far, and even a legal victory for Mr. Caswell would still leave him as another victim of the War on Drugs for all of the personal costs of his ordeal. 2. America's War on Drugs has exported our drug-related problems of crime, gangs, and violence to Mexico, where more than 8,000 corpses left across the country since 2006 have not even been identified, and where more than 5,000 people who have disappeared during the drug violence sweeping the country have never been tracked down, according to this Bloomberg report. "The sheer scale of the carnage makes it difficult for authorities to handle the murder cases. The latest violence has pushed the total number of drug-related deaths to around 55,000 since President Felipe Calderon assumed power in December 2006. Emergency teams have had to confront mass graves with more than 200 corpses, dozens of bodies thrown into mine shafts and massacres such as the 49 headless corpses found last week." Note that the number of drug-related deaths in Mexico is about the same as the number of American casualties during The Vietnam War, so it makes the use of the term "war" very appropriate. Warning: All images in this entry are shown in full. There are many dead bodies; the photographs are graphic and stark. This is the reality of the situation in Mexico right now.

WEST AMWELL — They call the South Hunterdon vs. New Hope-Solebury High football game “The Battle of the Bridges,” but it took a field goal long enough to clear the Delaware River to finally tilt the outcome in favor of the Pennsylvania contingent yesterday. Danny Sutton’s 48-yarder as time expired not only derailed South Hunterdon’s hope for an undefeated home season, 17-14, but put a sad final chapter on a landmark campaign for the Eagles (6-4), who shared the Hills Division title and earned their first NJSIAA Group I Central playoff berth in nine years. “A couple of key penalties changed field position,” said Eagles head coach Toby Jefferis, who saw his defense shut down the Lions for most of the second half, only to allow the Lions to move 38 yards over the final 100 seconds to set up Sutton’s epic boot. “We had (quarterback Connor Hayden) sacked with a fourth-and-a-mile, but a (roughing-the-passer) penalty put them in better position. (Another time,) we were driving down the field (in the fourth quarter), but a false start hurt us. Instead of a third-and-short, we had to throw the ball.” In a game that was a classic confrontation, matching South Hunterdon’s power and precision with New Hope-Solebury’s speed and innovation, the Eagles would have only been too happy to run the ball on every down and completed only one pass for 2 yards all day. After Jason DeVenuto’s 45-yard touchdown reception put the Lions up 7-0 just 2:20 into the game, the Eagles slowed the game down to their ground-and-pound style and appeared to be winning the battle of the trenches. At one juncture, South Hunterdon ran the ball 19 consecutive times and a 14-run, 72-yard drive that not only tied the game at 7-all, but kept the Lions’ defense on the field over seven minutes. Jake Whitaker’s 52-yard punt return set up Toby Coleman’s 5-yard plunge early in the second quarter, and South Hunterdon appeared in control, up 14-7. But a fumbled exchange four minutes later killed the Eagles’ momentum and continued a disturbing trend. The four of the first five times New Hope-Solebury got the ball at its 45 or beyond, remarkable field position that set up DeVenuto’s second touchdown reception, this from 27 yards, and a 14-all tie at the half. It stayed that way for most of the second half as linebacker Toby Coleman and defensive linemen Kyle Campbell and Daniel Voorhees consistently made sure that Hayden wouldn’t have time to find DeVenuto again. “We knew we had to get pressure on him, and we did,” Jefferis said. “He wasn’t able to get as comfortable in the pocket.” Despite these adjustments, maybe this was just the Lions’ day. On third-and-10 from his 31 with only 1:27 left in the fourth quarter, Hayden’s pass was tipped and went end over end into Frank Covino’s hands at midfield. Eight plays later, the Lions moved just close enough for Sutton to make a boot for the ages. A kicker since fourth-grade Pop Warner and a lacrosse midfielder/defenseman, Sutton has made field goals as long as 55 yards in practice. With no wind behind him, he “knew as soon as he kicked it that he had hit it well.” Only five days after a tough playoff loss to Asbury Park, it was a heartbreaking ending for a South Hunterdon team that earned three shutouts and had two three-game winning streaks. “In hindsight, I don’t know if the short week got to us,” said Jefferis, whose JV team played Monday as well. “Without the storm, we would have had a week, 10 days to prepare. But what can you do?” Contact Barry Federovitch at email@example.com

I was sickened to hear about a former TSA staffer in Orlando who was recently arrested for lewd and lascivious conduct. TSA takes allegations such as these very seriously and steps were taken to terminate this employee. Yesterday, the employee resigned. TSA uses background screening and perpetual vetting to keep those with criminal records out of our workforce, but background checks are not a crystal ball and cannot predict what a person will do in the future. Our officers are deeply saddened and disgusted that someone who wore the uniform could commit such an unspeakable act. TSA holds the highest standards for our workforce and this individual's actions do not reflect on the more than 50,000 men and women who work every day to keep the traveling public safe.

Ozirion is an experimental Web browser allowing people and groups to improve their privacy on the Internet by hiding their IP address through a network of virtual tunnels. The current release of Ozirion relies on the Tor technology. It includes a built-in Tor server and provides the ability to choose or ban countries in order to use an IP address from a specific country. The Privoxy local proxy is used for better privacy. Ozirion is totally independent from the Tor and Privoxy projects. Liberté Linux is a secure, reliable, lightweight, and easy to use Gentoo-based live USB Linux distribution intended as a communication aid in hostile environments. It installs as a regular directory on a USB/SD key, and after a single-click setup, boots on any desktop computer or laptop. The Internet connection is then used to set up a Tor circuit, which handles all network communication. During first boot, a unique email ID is generated from fingerprints of user's certificate and Tor hidden service key. This persistent ID allows one to stealthily communicate with other Liberté users. The distribution includes image and document processing applications, and can function as a secure Web browsing platform. For developers, Liberté can also serve as a robust framework for mastering Gentoo-based live USBs/CDs. The build process is fully automated with incremental build support, and is more mature and reliable than most of Gentoo's own outdated live CD tools. Pagekite is software to make servers on "localhost" visible to the wider Internet. It can be used by Web developers to show off their works in progress to clients or colleagues, embedded developers who need direct access to devices in the field, or as an alternative to dynamic DNS for individuals/hobbyists who would rather host their own content than rely on 3rd party hosting. It creates and maintains a tunnel between your server on localhost and a remote "front-end" (a reverse proxy). Only the front-end has to have a visible IP address; the server itself can reside on a heavily firewalled computer, a mobile device, or even an anonymous node on the Tor network. TorTV is a build of the Tor Project maintained to run on TV devices and set-top boxes so that anyone with such a household appliance can contribute to strengthen the Tor network. TorTV does not reimplement nor modify the Tor source code in any way; it provides binary builds for embedded targets and scripted bundles to facilitate their installation. So far, it targets WDTV devices running WDLXTV, but aims to grow to support more hardware in future. txtorcon is a Twisted-based asynchronous Tor control protocol implementation. Twisted is an event-driven networking engine written in Python, and Tor is an onion-routing network designed to improve people’s privacy and security on the Internet. It includes unit-tests with 96%+ coverage, multiple examples, and documentation. There are abstractions to track Tor configuration and state (circuits, streams), launch private instances, support Hidden Service, and more. Dowse eases the configuration of network routing for a local area network, starting from the setup of ARP-level static entries of known peers, IP-level firewall, DHCP configuration, and local DNS cache, up to an application layer transparent proxy and optional gateways to anonymous networks such as Tor and I2P. It consists of a minimalistic script which can run on any GNU/Linux box and which, from a central configuration point, controls Ebtables, Iptables, and all the daemons needed for such operations: DnsMasq, Squid2, and Privoxy. It comes with a module system for contributed add-ons like DNSCrypt-proxy and HTTPS-everywhere. Chrubix installs the GNU/LInux distro of your choice - ArchLinux, Debian, Fedora, Kali, SuSE, or Ubuntu - onto a removable MultiMediaCard (MMC) on your ARM-based Chromebook. Chrubix supplies Guest Mode, full-disk encryption, Windows XP camouflage mode, MAC address randomizing, a panic button, additional checksums, and a variety of important security-oriented software applications such as Freenet, I2P, Tor, GPG, and LEAP-Bitmask. In addition, Chrubix offers you the option to tweak the software so that it will run on no hardware but yours (MMC and laptop must match). In this way, it transforms your ARM-based Chromebook into a fully functional, more secure laptop.
