2008 CTS spy photos April 20, 2006 | CTS, News, Spy photos | No Comments| The Car Connection is showing spy photos that confirm that the mock-up Bob Lutz previewed on CBS’ 60 Minutes is actually the new CTS. Through this modest disguise, you can see many of the cues that were clearly shown on 60 Minutes. It is obvious that this is not the exact car shown in the rear-views in the Cadillac styling studio – further suggesting that that car may have been a rumored coupe version of the CTS. With more in-your-face styling than the current CTS it should be a worthy successor. Read all about it at:

Scott Aaronson weighing in on the controversy caused by Robin Hanson’s article – Robin’s original post and follow-up. Scott notes that Robin has spawned many important, original ideas, and that though he can be tone-deaf or insensitive, he is a genuine person. Robin’s original post noted that there is liberal sympathy for people who lack access to money but not for those who lack access to sex, about as taboo of a comparison as is possible to make. But as Scott points out, Robin doesn’t hold your hand or slowly walk you through his ideas, which is why I prefer Scott’s article instead. He handles the topic much more delicately, and his article won’t invoke the involuntary feelings of disgust that Robin’s might. The biggest takeaway is that we don’t consider Muslim extremists as representative of all Muslims nor do we consider leftist extremists to be representatives of all leftists. So similarly, we should not consider extremist involuntary celibates as representatives of all involuntary celibates. And since we recognize that the majority of Muslims are normal, decent people, and feel compassion for their plight in combating discrimination, we should recognize that the majority of involuntary celibates are decent people as well and extend our compassion for their plight in finding human connection. No, I’m not saying you should feel compassion for the minority that sexually harasses the other sex (mostly women) or demand sex as a right, just like I wouldn’t expect you to feel compassion for Muslim extremists who terrorize the population. But do recognize that most are deserving of your compassion. Scott Alexander’s classification of the levels of disagreement – The article provides a breakdown of the types of disagreement ranging from the uncharitable to the ideal. Scott notes how public discourse rarely gets above the lowest levels and provides guidelines for better debates. Review of Ron Chernow’s biography of Grant – Blight praises the biography but pushes back on some of Chernow’s conclusions. Blight points out that we shouldn’t completely absolve Grant of all the corruption that was going on during his presidency. Grant is such a captivating figure and the way we interpret him will not only depend on his actions but also on the time period and the person doing the interpreting. Megan McArdle on the difficulty of achieving the programs left-wing Americans dream of – “Notably, almost all the foreign programs that American social democrats envy were enacted during Europe’s long post-war.” William Broyles, Jr.’s essay Why Men Love War – Originally published in 1984, Broyles explains why men love war: self-discovery, brotherhood, the thrill of skirting death, and the intense love with others that develops when faced with constant danger. Felix Salmon on Food for the Poor – The nonprofit inflates its revenues by using an overstated value for the donated goods it receives in order to appear more efficient than it actually is. And pharmaceutical companies might be reporting overstated donations using the same method. “My Effing First Amendment” by This American Life – Podcast episode about an incident at the University of Nebraska – Lincoln about conservatives triggering liberals who then trigger the conservatives. There is no clear “good” side and you end up empathizing and getting angry at all the parties involved.

If me. In fact, I can’t conceive of anything else. How much more fair than that does it get? Commission salespeople know that if they want to earn more, they need to sell more. If they’re not sure how to do that, they need to learn. If they’re not sure who to approach, they need to either ask someone who knows who to approach or they need to approach a lot of people, gauge the results, and determine what works. If they’re not sure what to say, they need to either ask someone who knows what to say or they need to say a lot of different things, gauge the results, and determine what works for themselves. That’s what you call learn by doing. It’s not ideal, but it’s better than starving. Produce Results -> Get Paid No drama. No endless discussion. No righteous indignation. Just an ability (or an inability) to produce results for the customer and the company. If you produce results, you get paid. If you don’t produce results, you earn nothing. Boomer. Millennial. Christian. Jew. Muslim. Atheist. Produce Results -> Get Paid With a model that simple, you would think more people would look into it. Some salespeople work 80 hours a week and earn next to nothing. That’s a signal they’re doing things wrong. Some salespeople work just a few hours a week and make a fortune. That’s a signal they’re doing things right. But what about those who aren’t in sales or aren’t paid on commission? If you’re being paid $10 an hour but only producing $4 an hour worth of results, you are overpaid for what you’re doing and you won’t be able to keep your job. If you’re earning $10 an hour and producing $50 an hour worth of results, you will be highly valued by your employer, and even if you’re not, there will be lots of other people who will want to hire you for more money. So focus less on what you’re currently being paid and focus more on creating value in everything you do. It’s the quickest way to get your income to a level at which people can legitimately begin to resent you. Leave A Response

Styling a Custom Taxonomy Admin Panel Hey all, I’m writing a plugin that adds a price range taxonomy to posts. To make it easier for contributors, I’ve customised it to display four currency symbols (associated with the four valid taxonomy options), which they are able to select. I’m new to custom taxonomies and WordPress in general so maybe I’ve missed something during my research but how does one go about styling the meta-data box that the register_taxonomy() function auto-generates? I’m sure that I could just use jQuery to do this but I was hoping that there would be a more suitable solution already built-in. Is anyone aware of such functionality and able to provide a link? Trying to style the meta-data box which the register_taxonomy() function auto-generates. Official way to do so? - The topic ‘Styling a Custom Taxonomy Admin Panel’ is closed to new replies.

The themes of the Forum might include: - The legal relevance (if any) of the cooperative principles for cooperative law - The legal relevance (if any) of the cooperative principles for other fields of law (e.g. constitutions, administration law, tax law, bankruptcy law, labor law, competition law, bankruptcy law, audit regulations, book-keeping and accounting standards) - Legal requirements (if any) for specific types of cooperatives, either by sector (e.g. agricultural, banking, energy cooperatives), or by governance/structure (e.g. workers’ cooperatives, multi-stakeholder cooperatives, social cooperatives) - The unification of cooperative law at national, regional and international levels - Cooperative law and the legal framework of the social economy - Cooperative law and globalization. - Policies on research and education in the field of cooperative law - Educational programs in the field of cooperative law - Tools for the research and study of cooperative law.

Cut out the pattern pieces. It gets better I promise! Stand it up, trim the corners a little. Happy village-making! 2 comments: Cute! Looks deceptively easy. MadSilence to&w Those would have to be in the upper branches at my house, or they would be really cute cat toys instead of ornaments. Thank you, so much, for taking the time to chime in here.

It's funny. A few weeks ago, I entered a contest on Polyvore centered around blue hair. Here's my entry if you're interested: I like the idea of peek a boos and I think the first picture is adorable. Not so wild about the second one though. I think they'd look totally cute on you IF (and it may be a big IF) you go blonde first. I would not put them with your current color. So you have a two stage process to do it which is maybe why your mom isn't wild about the idea. I also think your red looked pretty nice and it brings out your eyes. What about your natural color (brunette I guess) with red peeks? Just saying... babyblue asked: 06 Jun 2012 PEEK- A- BOO BLUE ? I love the color blue especially turquoise babyblue and electric blue. I don't wanna dye my whole hair blue but I was thinking of getting blue lights underneath , almost hidden and thin ones so its not too drastic. My hair has grown almost back to its natural state since before I dyed it red and took a while to grow it out. mom really does not want me to do it but hey you only live once x) . What do you guys think ? Heres some pictures of what I'm thinking =] oh yeah forgot : heres me too to help understand if it would suit me or not .

Entertainment From the Page to the Screen: Evolution of Superman Seventy-five years ago, Superman first appeared in a comic book. Since then, he’s come a long way, transforming into a TV and movie star, developing a more complex personality, and, let’s be honest—he’s gotten a lot more muscular. Today, Man of Steel, starring Henry Cavill as Clark Kent and Amy Adams as Lois Lane, hits theaters. From his comic book debut to today’s modern superhero movies packed with special effects, see the evolution of Superman’s career, which is still going strong after more than half a century, below. 1938 Superman first appeared in Action Comics No. 1, published April 18, 1938. 1930s It wasn’t long before Superman’s popularity in Action Comics earned him his very own series. 1948 Superman quickly expanded his reach to newspaper comic strips, radio, and animated cartoons. In 1948, Kirk Alyn became the first actor to bring Superman to life on screen, starring in a series of films shown in theaters. 1953 The Adventures of Superman, a TV series that ran from 1952 to 1958, starring George Reeves, made Superman a household name. 1950s While gaining fame on TV and film, Superman continued starring in his original medium, the comic book. By the 50s, Superman’s muscles had become more defined and his iconic chest logo had morphed into the one we know today. 1966 Superman came to Broadway in a short-lived musical, It’s a Bird…It’s a Plane…It’s Superman. 1973 The “Man of Steel” starred in several animated TV shows. Super Friends aired on ABC between 1973 and 1986 and teamed Superman with Aquaman, Batman, Robin, and Wonder Woman. 1978 With Christopher Reeve as Clark Kent (and Marlon Brando as Jor-El, Superman’s father, and Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor, Superman’s archnemesis), the Superman films first proved that superheroes have blockbuster potential. 1980s By the mid-80s, more than 400 issues of Superman comic books had been published. 1993 Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman starring Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher played up the romance between Clark Kent and Lois Lane. 1996 A followup to the successful Batman animated series, a modern Superman cartoon ran for four years until 2000, defining the superhero during Saturday morning cartoons for a generation of kids. 2001 Tom Welling starred as a lovelorn teenage Clark Kent on the CW’s Smallville from 2001 to 2011. 2006 Despite its all-star cast, Superman Returns, featuring Brandon Routh, Kate Bosworth, Kevin Spacey, and James Marsden, got a lukewarm response at the box office. 2011 Today’s Superman comics have taken on a darker, more serious tone, with Clark exploring deeper and more emotional themes. 2013 The highly anticipated upcoming movie, Man of Steel, hits theaters today, and stars Henry Cavill as Superman and Amy Adams as Lois Lane. Watch the trailer here.

I bet that most of you reading this post have at least one denim shirt in your closet, in some shape or form. They’re one of those items that never really go out of style and they slot seamlessly into most wardrobes. They come in a slew of different styles and range of different shades – there is most definitely a shirt out there for each and every style and shape. The denim shirt I own is this very neat, fitted style that hugs my frame and doesn’t hide my waist too much (as a pear shape, clothes that hug my waist are the most flattering). It’s quite rare for me to wear a buttoned up shirt as I tend to feel a little trussed up, however, this shirt has a good amount of stretch in the fabric allowing for movement. Like all of the items featured in this series, this shirt is ridiculously versatile and when the temperatures in Pittsburgh dropped dramatically last week, it became the star item in my collection, fitting perfectly between layers and creating a soft barrier between my skin and scratchy, but warm, wool. The classic combination of a shirt and sweater will never go out of style. It’s warm and comfortable and the collar and cuffs add a little detail to this otherwise plain piece of knitwear. If you find the sleeves move around and bunch up with wear, just turn the cuff up and over the sleeve of the sweater to keep it in place. By the way, if you struggle to find long boots that stay up, I HIGHLY recommend heading over to Ted and Muffy – they’re a British brand that are over here in the USA, too, that sell boots by the calf width to ensure the perfect fit. They really are fantastic. Some people can rock a leather jacket with leather pants…but not many, and I certainly can’t! Layering the denim shirt under the leather jacket, and the faux fur coat on top breaks up the leather perfectly and adds a much needed extra layer to fight the biting winds. Denim, leather and leopard is quite possibly one of the best combinations! I’ll admit, doubling up on denim isn’t something I do very often. I’ve admired it from afar (I’m looking at you, Jessa and Jennifer! ) but I can’t have worn it myself more than a handful of times. This outfit took a little trial and error but I’m pretty happy with the final look. I found that wearing a lighter, brighter shade on my smaller top half, and a darker hue on the bottom half flattered my figure the most. I tried wearing a paler shade of jeans with the shirt but it felt too matchy matchy for me. I turned up the hem of my jeans to tie the two denims together, and added the sleeveless duster to soften the look. THE DETAILS What’s your favorite way to wear a denim shirt? Would you double up on denim?

Ironshore launches political risk cover for film producers Ironshore International has introduced a new insurance product designed for film production companies shooting in risky locations worldwide. The political risk programme aims to protect movie producers against loss or damage of equipment and property caused by acts of foreign governments. Offered within Ironshore’s war and terrorism platform, the product provides film producers with comprehensive coverage of loss related to confiscation and various political violence perils. Risk coverage can include property damage and time element losses as a result of war, terrorism and political acts. The policy covers equipment, props, wardrobe and other production materials for loss due to abandonment, deprivation, expropriation and license cancellation. The new product will be underwritten through Ironshore’s Pembroke Lloyd’s Syndicate 4000 in London. “Film production is an industry that reaches into every corner of the world, thus exposing companies to the potential for significant loss from acts of foreign governments,” said James Dover, senior vice president, war and sabotage. “Ironshore’s specialty product for this complex industry risk combines political risk with war and terrorism coverage to protect producers filming in territories with a history of uncertainty and turmoil,” he added.

« Like Rain on Your Wedding Day | Main | Damn Dirty Hippies » 10 Jul 2007 03:33 pm. Permalink :: Share This Because all presidents are pardon-crazy this seems more a dissatisfaction with political favoritism in general. I don't think it could advantage the democrats. Posted by judson | July 10, 2007 3:41 PM judson, No. The poll question specifically asked about Libby. A President's pardon power hasn't made news in six years so I doubt these results are due to some type of American "pardon fatigue". If you think it points to a more broad issue about pardon power please show some proof. Posted by Joshua | July 10, 2007 3:49 PM Libby? YAWWWN! Posted by cleek | July 10, 2007 3:54 PM the official right-wing position (as articulated on the wsj editorial pages, for instance) is that libby should have been pardoned, so what i like about this poll is that it gives us a good idea of exactly how extensive right-wing kool-aid drinking is: 6 people out of 100. now, let us compare that to the percentage of right-wing kool-aid drinkers invited to opine on the libby commutation in our various political talk shows on television. i guarantee you it's been more than 1 out of 16.... plus i agree with joshua.... Posted by howard | July 10, 2007 3:55 PM Save the footage of the GOP debate where each of the candidates stood up for pardoning Libby. Save the footage of Thompson leading the charge for a Libby pardon. Ad script: [GOP Candidate X] talks a good game on the need for law and order, but when Vice President Cheney's Chief of Staff, Scooter Libby, was convicted of serious felonies, [Candidate X] favored letting him off scott free. [ROLL FOOTAGE] [Democratic Candidate] understands that law and order means that the law must apply to all, including the power brokers in Washington. [Democratic Candidate] pledges to restore respect for the police, the Constitution and rules that Americans live by every day. [Democratic Candidate] will restore the 100,000 extra police that former President Clinton dispatched, which give the US its lowest crime rate in recent history. It's time for a change. Vote for [Democratic Candidate]. Posted by Ephus | July 10, 2007 4:12 PM When I saw this presented in the form of a graph, it reminded me of the polling on the Terri Schiavo mess. Seems there were similar options to choose from and the Bushies and their media cheerleaders were all SHOCKED to find that most of America thought they should have stayed out of it. Just an observation. Posted by RandyH | July 10, 2007 4:14 PM People are always leaving campaign issues in Reid's and Pelosi's offices. Scattered about on the floor, atop coffee tables, in the bathroom. The night crew cleans up the mess and Nancy and Harry are none the wiser. Posted by steve duncan | July 10, 2007 4:16 PM Ajami-Peretz-Matalin-&-Co. wanted the pardon. That's all that was necessary. Posted by otto | July 10, 2007 4:25 PM But it could. Andrew Sullivan today quotes Byron York quoting Clinton about the pardons the day after he left office in 2001 - "The next day, the new ex-president, explaining his decisions in several controversial cases, told reporters, "You're not saying that these people didn't commit the offense. You're saying they paid, they paid in full, and they've been out long enough after their sentence to show they're good citizens, so they ought to have a chance to get full citizenship."" That's the difference between pardons the way they should be done (like what Romney should have done with that guy who shot someone with a BB gun in MA when he was 13 and now can't become a cop), and playing "in your face" political hardball to cover up investigations into alleged executive branch criminal acts. The Rublicans have repeatedly done it with Nixon, Weinburger and the Iran/Contra crew, and now Libby. Huge difference between the two parties approach to pardons - and if Democrats decided it was worth making the case, the American people would recognize the difference. Posted by Ethel-to-Tilly | July 10, 2007 4:29 PM "Everybody sort of likes the president, except for the real whack-jobs..." - Chris Matthews (while Bush approval was in low 30s) The Washington press insiders are possibly the least well informed subset of the American population. I don't know how to explain it. Perhaps, unlike apathetic ignorance, they have ignorance actively instilled into them from constant exposure to complete rubbish. They are so constantly subject to spin that knowledge itself becomes an impossibility for them. Posted by Njorl | July 10, 2007 4:32 PM The value of a campaign issue is not primarily on how many support and how many oppose, but rather on how many care enough to vote on the issue. I might wish it were otherwise, but I doubt the Libby pardon is an election turner. Posted by Lon | July 10, 2007 4:32 PM This is an issue that will have some symbolic resonance with people, the President's cronies get special favors even when they are convicted of crimes by a jury. The Washington Courtiers aside, Americans still have a pretty stubborn attachement to equal justice under the law. That theme more than Libby himself could be a powerful theme for the Democrats in the fall, especially Edwards or Obama, if they'll use it. Posted by AJ | July 10, 2007 4:35 PM The full poll results show that the Libby pardon didn't play as large a role in reducing confidence in Bush as something else did. Finding out what that other issue is will be left as an exercise. Posted by TLB | July 10, 2007 4:51 PM I think even some of the wingnut dumbasses who are spoonfed the Ministry of Information's latest propaganda on FucksNews every night right after their latest spending binge at Wallyworld will get this meme: Equal justice for all, but for my friends, it's a little more equal. Even the Members Only guidos from Sopranoland can understand how fucked up that is. Might be a little beyond some of the dumbfuck WWJD megachurch megadouches, though. Posted by WTF | July 10, 2007 5:04 PM I might wish it were otherwise, but I doubt the Libby pardon is an election turner. Not in itself, but it could well be a focal point for anger at the broader pattern. Put it this way: there's one law for you and me, one law for the rich and powerful, and no law at all for the Bush administration. Posted by Tom Hilton | July 10, 2007 5:29 PM To quote Shailagh Murray: YAAWWN. That's what we can expect out of the MSM, SCLM, or whatever we're calling them these days. Haircuts and brown suits are what they care about. Posted by low-tech cyclist | July 10, 2007 5:36 PM A President's pardon power hasn't made news in six years And it also hadn't been used in six years. That only proves that it only makes the news when the president actually gets somebody out of jail. Posted by David | July 10, 2007 5:36 PM You'll notice they don't report what percentage have no clue who Libby is. Polling companies never like to report just how out of touch on political matters much of the public is. Posted by Steve Sailer | July 11, 2007 12:51 AM google up Bush Pardons / he has pardon people but none of this makes the news Posted by Katherine Hunter | July 11, 2007 10:14 AM But the 6% supporting a full pardon includes all the right people [/Sally Quinn] Posted by calling all toasters | July 11, 2007 3.

STEVE ISRAEL: Timeless Bob Dylan still stirs my spirit It was like a switch unleashing blood-racing, gut-grabbing, lump-in-throat possibility. That’s how I felt more than a half-century ago as a 12-year-old camper at Camp Wasigan in Blairstown, NJ, when I first heard the whiny, nasal voice of Bob Dylan on my counselor's hi-fi. That strange voice, so unlike any on the Top 40 coming from my Emerson transistor radio, was singing about “chimes of freedom flashing…for the warriors whose strength is not to fight…for the refugees on their unarmed road of flight…for each and every underdog soldier in the night.” Back then, in 1965, the country was in turmoil, in some ways that are eerily like today. Black Americans, including Martin Luther King and the late Rep. John Lewis, marched in Selma, Ala., for the same right to vote as white Americans. After a state trooper shot and killed a marcher, and cops beat and bloodied more demonstrators, including Lewis, the marches grew and spread across America. The Watts section of Los Angeles exploded in violent riots after a Black man was pulled over and beaten by a white cop for driving while intoxicated. The first 3,500 combat troops landed in Vietnam, in a war that would leave than 58,000 Americans killed. At 12, I didn’t quite grasp what was happening, but I knew people who bled the same blood as I were oppressed just because of their skin color and kids were being sent to fight and die in a civil war in a country thousands of miles away. Dylan’s words were articulating something I could barely express, let alone define. They helped open a door to a new world, to a movement of people who would right these wrongs and fight for “each and every underdog soldier in the night.” I felt the untarnished idealistic certainty that we young people could — and would — change the world. Flash forward 55 years. My 12-year-old self is now a retired, ecstatically married, home-owning, 67-year-old fortunate to still write about things that matter. We elected the first Black president, but Black people are still discriminated against and targeted for the color of their skin. We have a president who retweets a video of a supporter shouting “white power” and has said that President Obama might be a Muslim born in Kenya. We’re enduring a once-in-a-lifetimes pandemic that’s killed more than 138,000 of us and forced more than 43 million Americans to file for unemployment. Yet life is still full of possibility, as millions of Americans — young and old, Black and white — marching for justice proves. Through speaking out, voting and helping the hungry and needy we still can make a difference. But it takes years. The world isn’t always as clear-cut as I thought back then. It’s a crazy quilt of contradictions. And Dylan? That 79-year-old whiny, nasal voice sounds as craggy and worn as the roads of time on his monumental new album “Rough and Ready Ways.” It rocks deep with the urgency of youth and waltzes spryly across centuries, juxtaposing soldiers like Caesar, sinners like Lee Harvey Oswald, saints like Martin Luther King Jr. and singers like Elvis. It speaks to how we grow cautious with age — “I fuss with my hair” — yet still have it in us to “fight blood feuds.” And after more than half a century, Dylan still stirs our souls with words that are timely and timeless: “I’m a man of contradictions and I’m a man of many moods/I contain multitudes.” [email protected]

Any children attending school will also be completing the same sheets. The children in Reception have not been taught phase 4 previously at school and therefore we thought it might be useful to give you some additional information about this phase. The purpose of this phase is to consolidate children’s previous knowledge. They should now be blending confidently to work out new words. They should be starting to be able to read words straight off, rather than having to sound them out. They should also be able to write every letter mostly correct. They should be able to say all previous phonemes they have been taught in phase 2 (s,a,t,p,i,n,m,d,g,o,c,k,ck,e,u,r,h,b,f,ff,l,ll,ss) and phase 3 (j,v,w,x,y,z,zz,qu,ch,sh,th,ng,ai,ee,igh,oa,oo,ar,or,ur,ow,oi,ear,air,ure,er). Phase 4 concentrates on using children’s previous knowledge on phase.2 and 3 sounds to introduce adjacent consonant. Adjacent consonants are when two or three consonants appear next to each other in a word, but they keep their own sound when blended. For example, if you say the word stop the ‘s’ and the ‘t’ are adjacent consonants and when segmented into the sounds s-t-o-p they keep their own sounds and have their own sound buttons. Adjacent consonants are different to digraphs or trigraphs such as sh, ch, th, igh because when these two or three letters are next to each other they make one new sound. The reason we need to teach children the adjacent consonants is the leap from reading 3 sound words (hat) to 4 sound words (limp) is very difficult for many early readers. The step to 5 sound words (print) is even greater. Therefore, children need to spend time learning the adjacent consonants to help them read 4 or more sound letter words. Please remember that all children learn and their own pace and If you feel your child is not ready to move onto phase 4 please continue to work on the sounds, you think they need to work on. All of the phase 3 time to read sheets are available on the school website and there are a range of other resources and activity ideas available online. Phonics play is a good resource () and provide online activities that most children enjoy. Also Twinkl () have a range of activities.

A Bridgeport man suspected of trafficking assault rifles and other guns has been arrested. The statewide narcotics task force had an apartment on Hanover Street in Bridgeport under surveillance on Monday during an investigation into William Akeem Hooks, 29, of Bridgeport, and detectives saw him sell a GSG-522 .22 caliber rifle, according to a news release from state police. The gun, which had a pistol grip and silencer, is classified as an assault rifle Detectives later saw Hooks leave his home and stopped his vehicle, with help from the Bridgeport Police Department. When they arrested Hooks, police said they found him with one gram of crack cocaine, marijuana, and $1,320. When detectives searched Hooks’ apartment, they seized a loaded Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 .22 caliber rifle with a high-capacity magazine that was reported stolen from Darlington County, South Carolina. Police said they also seized a loaded Glock Model 26 9mm semi-automatic handgun with a high-capacity magazine, the GSG-522 .22 caliber rifle and Hooks’ 2005 Dodge Magnum. Police said Hooks obtained the weapons from southern states along the East Coast and Troop G is holding them as evidence. Local The arrest comes a day after Connecticut lawmakers called on Congress to ban assault weapons after the mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida that killed 49 people and wounded 50 others.. Authorities contacted the Department of Children and Families because two children were in the apartment and Hooks was transported to Troop G, where he was held on $500,000 bond. Hooks was charged with illegal sale or transfer of an assault weapon, possession of narcotics, two counts of possession of an assault rifle, theft of a firearm and two counts of risk of injury to a minor. He is due in Bridgeport Superior Court today.

604 Article Published in International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications(IJACSA), Volume 3 Issue 6, 2012. Abstract: Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is the physical layer in emerging wireless local area networks that are also being targeted for ad hoc networking. OFDM can be also exploited in ad hoc networks to improve the energy performance of mobile devices. It is important in wireless networks because it can be used adaptively in a dynamically changing channel. This study gives a detailed view about OFDM and how it is useful to increase the bandwidth. This paper also gives an idea about how OFDM can be a promising technology for high capacity wireless communication.

Before I choose what I was going to watch next, I decided to eat. I couldn't decide on the leftover lentils with linguine or a grilled cheese. I choose the lentils with linguine and it was the right decision. For some reason I made a connection that WrestleMania X-7 and lentils with linguine was a nice pairing. WrestleMania X-7, is arguably known as the best WrestleMania ever. This event was the second time that the WrestleMania main event featured The Rock and Steve Austin for the WWF Championship. WrestleMania X-7 is often noted as the end of The Attitude Era. For me it would be the last Mania/WWF-related program I wouldn't watch for three years. Seeing the show end with McMahon and Austin shaking hands and sharing beers, turned me off to watching wrestling. I know its all part of the plan but it was a let down. Although, an Austin heel turn would've been interesting, the fans weren't ready for it. Once Vince McMahon came to the ringside you knew there was some sort of shenanigans taking place. After a stunner and a kick out by Rocky, McMahon handed Austin a steel chair; you knew it was an Austin heel turn and meant the end of something special, wrestling at this time was larger than life. It didn't get bigger than Rock vs. Austin. Him turning heel went so hard against the grain that it just didn't work and fans knew it wouldn't work and it was only a matter of the time that we got the old Stone Cold back. Its like the equivalent of a comic book story where one superhero is under a spell or being mind controlled to fight other heroes which is fun for about five minutes. The money is in the hero being a hero not being a villain for vague reasons that are never quite explained. The only lasting thing about any of Austin's time as a heel was that it gave birth to his forever promo altering "What!?" pauses. Austin is an enigma, plus I had no interest in the whole invasion angle, with the purchase of WCW and ECW. I know I missed a ton of stuff at that moment because some of the storylines were done real well. But WrestleMania X- 7 was a great send off for me.

Why Pay to Diagnose a Check Engine Light? Have you ever noticed that on advertisements, the word “free” is usually presented in all caps, in red, or otherwise designed to catch your eye? There’s no question that this is a deliberate, psychological tactic meant to draw you in and trick you into spending money. It’s just as true for “FREE gift with purchase” as it is for “FREE check engine light diagnosis.” But, in the case of the latter, it makes sense to think that if you’re going to have the check engine light looked at anyway, you may as well get it done for free, right? Wrong. While your check engine light won’t necessarily point to a serious problem every time it illuminates, you’ll want to know exactly what the issue is so you can address it correctly. Anything less than a thorough, proper, and reliable diagnosis will leave you (and your wallet) vulnerable. Take a look at these five reasons why you should bypass the freebies and pay to diagnose your check engine light #1. Free diagnosis isn’t diagnosis at all A “free diagnosis” is usually nothing more than hooking your car up to a machine that scans for “trouble codes” in your car’s computer system. You then receive a printout that tells you what each code means. Nothing more. Most likely, no one has even tinkered around under the hood or verified the accuracy of the codes. Merely pulling the codes is not a proper diagnosis. #2. A recommendation is not the same thing as a diagnosis Once the codes have been pulled and you’ve received your printout, the shop will offer “recommendations” for service based on this information. But if you hand over your wallet now, you may end up paying for trial and error car repair. #3. Machines don’t tell the whole story There’s no doubt that cars have become more technologically advanced in the past decades. Every year it seems their computer systems become more complex. So, yes, having the right equipment for diagnosis is important. At the same time, a shop that relies only on a machine reading to determine what’s wrong with your car is missing a crucial part of the diagnostic process: human expertise. #4. An experienced technician is not as easy to find as you may think We hate to break it to you but your “free check engine light diagnosis” will likely be done by a less-than-highly-qualified technician. It takes a significant amount of time and effort to become an expert auto technician, particularly if you’re going to work with a wide range of car makes and models. And, frankly, the shops that offer “free diagnosis” won’t usually pay for that expertise. #5. You might end up paying more for the parts and labor in the end When you receive a free diagnosis, not only are you taking a risk with trial-and-error car repair, but you’re also likely pay more for parts and labor. Companies that offer free service to draw you in have to make up for it in the long run. And they do, through inflated pricing elsewhere. So your free diagnosis might actually result in more money out of your wallet in the end. In other words, not exactly free.

Paying The Cost of Illegal Eviction Every landlord has wished at some time that he or she could evict a tenant without the time cost and frustration of Court proceedings. Every practitioner is repeatedly asked “Why can’t I just change the locks?” The Protection from Eviction Act 1977 is clear. With a residential property a landlord must get possession by enforcing a Possession Order. Two recent cases before District Judges in London, reported in Legal Action, illustrate the financial consequences of a landlord taking the law into his or her own hands. In the first case the Claimant was an Assured shorthold tenant of one room in a house of multiple occupancy paying £350.00 a month. The landlord came to the property and falsely claimed rent had not been paid. He told all the occupiers of the HMO they had to leave. He returned the following day with his agent and changed the locks to the front door. When the Claimant tried to re-enter the property having called the Police three times, the landlord’s agent pushed him violently and kicked him in the back and chest. The tenant was taken to hospital and discharged later that day. He was only allowed to enter the property to collect his possessions. He spent twenty-nine nights sleeping on a friend’s floor and was then in temporary accommodation in a hostel for five months. The HMO was marketed six weeks later with one tenancy for the whole property. The Judge ordered the landlord to pay compensation to the tenant being £1,000.00 for the assault, general damages at £300.00 per night for twenty-nine days sleeping on a friend’s floor, £190.00 per night for fourteen nights in a hostel, aggravated damages of £2,000.00 and exemplary damages of £1,800.00 being the amount the Judge considered the landlord would have spent on legal costs by falsely claiming failure to pay rent as an excuse to evict. The total was £16,332.19. In the second case, the tenant moved into a one bedroom property. Although it was meant to be fully furnished it only had a bed, a sofa, a coffee table, an old cooker, a fridge and a washing machine but no gas or electricity supply when the tenant moved in. Two days later the landlady turned on the electricity supply. The following day the tenant tried to use the washing machine. Water poured out of it and the tenant heard the sound of sparking. He called the Fire Brigade who had to turn off the electricity supply. The following day the landlady told the tenant to leave. He slept on the streets for seventy days, apart from three weeks in a hostel. He was awarded compensation of £200.00 per day for seventy days, aggravated damages of £2,000.00 and exemplary damages of £1,500.00 being a total of £17,500.00. In both cases the interest and the tenants’ costs would have increased the liability of the landlord by many thousands of pounds. These cases are referred to because they are recent, not because the compensation is exceptional. There have been numerous cases where much greater sums have been awarded against landlords. Moreover a landlord who is successfully prosecuted under the Protection from Eviction Act 1977 must face the prospect of an immediate substantial custodial sentence. Whatever the frustrations of obtaining Possession Orders, the ‘’self help” option should not be considered.

Explosive news for “Bachelorette” viewers. Desiree Hartsock has a contestant vying for her heart … who also has a pretty extensive arrest record. Fans of “The Bachelorette” were introduced to Minnesota native Brandon Andreen on Monday. The 26-year-old painting contractor arrived on his motorcycle, definitely making a good impression on Desiree. At the cocktail party he revealed that he’s seven years sober, and even handed Des his sober chip to give back to his mother during the hometown dates. While Brandon did open up to the bachelorette, he failed to mention one thing – his charge of making a bomb threat. The National Enquirer dug up some court documents on “The Bachelorette” suitor, revealing that he placed a bomb threat in 2005 while working as a telemarketer. According to the documents, Andreen called a General Motors plant in Wisconsin and identified himself as an FBI agent. He allegedly told a worker that a briefcase in an elevator shaft at the plant contained a “highly explosive device,” and ordered that the building be evacuated immediately. Andreen was then reportedly charged with a felony, but was able to reduce his charged to a misdemeanor. The National Enquirer reports that he paid a fine of over $1,000 for the charges. When the Enquirer reached out to the contestant he told them, “I have no comment … it was all a misunderstanding.” The bomb threat isn’t Brandon’s only secret, though. The magazine further uncovered that in 2007 he was “busted for suspicion of driving under the influence.” Just a few months later he was arrested after being caught driving with a revoked license. Andreen has yet to comment on his trouble with the law on his Twitter account. But he did thank viewers on Tuesday for “all the love” he received on the premiere episode of “The Bachelorette.”

You might be able to squeeze in shorties or Tri-Y headers, or be stuck with cast exhaust manifolds. You will need a custom driveshaft. You will also likely need a different axle to handle the torque, and possibly a different means of controlling the axle so power goes to the pavement instead of just hopping the rear axle. There will be lots of hidden costs beyond the engine and trans, although the '93 and older S-10 trucks are a lot easier to swap than the later platform. However, the L69 from the '83 TA is really nothing special, and may not be as desirable as you might think. Consider using an '87-later auto (not truck) block to get the benefits of a roller cam, improved rear main seal, and likely better heads (if factory). blazee 05-17-2011, 12:01 AM However, the L69 from the '83 TA is really nothing special, and may not be as desirable as you might think.

Stylistically, it lies somewherebetween LADY AND THE TRAMP (1955) and the adult-oriented films of RalphBakshi (without the sex and violence, naturally); as such, it standsoddly alongside the studio's usual fare from this rather lame era - andits vitality can now be seen to have foreshadowed the renaissance inquality (and critical appraisal) which they witnessed soon after,beginning with THE LITTLE MERMAID (1989). The anthropomorphiccharacters (which generally swamp the humans - Fagin is very much agood guy here, if still pitiful) are quite nicely fitted to classstereotypes: hence, we get a Hispanic chihauha (with an eye for theladies) and a posh bulldog, among others, while Dodger is basically anupdated version of Tramp and Oliver himself a cute but very bravekitten. The familiar and involved plot is all but jettisoned(especially in its second half) in favor of boisterous action andcharacter comedy, with a bouncy score and rapid pace to match. In theend, it proved surprisingly good - and, at just 74 minutes, shortenough not to overstay its welcome..

In ancient times, the Greek poet Homer called salt a divine substance. Plato described it as being especially dear to the gods. Today, we take salt for granted as we reach for it in our kitchens to season our food. But salt does much more than that. It seasons yes, but it also cures, and preserves. It also seals, cleans, and acts as an antiseptic. According to the website ‘Salt Works’ there are over 14,000 uses for salt today, and no doubt more are being discovered somewhere around the world as we are gathered here.. Mohandas Gandhi chose as his means of rebellion against British colonialism, the revolutionary act of contravening Britain’s salt policy. The Romans (the people who occupied and governed the area that Jesus lived in) appear to have esteemed salt highly. The Roman army, for a time, was even paid in salt. This is the origin of the word “salary” and the expressions “worth her salt” and “earning his salt.” In fact, the Latin word sal became the French word solde, meaning “pay,” and has come down to us in the word “soldier.” And the Romans used to salt their greens, which is the origin of the word “salad,” which simply means salted. We could say that history has been shaped by salt, the only rock that humans eat. We could also say that theology – what we say and believe about God – has been influenced by it as well. During biblical times, salt was much more precious than we think of it today, and people better understood its value, and t is in this context that Jesus says to his disciples, ‘everyone will be salted with fire. Salt is good; but if salt has lost its saltiness, how can you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.’ It is a difficult passage both to hear and to understand: the disciples – concerned about their own status and importance in the new world that Jesus is inaugurating – complain to Jesus that someone else is casting out demons in Jesus’ name. A reminder to us that the uniqueness of Jesus is not found in the stories of his miracles – there were many prophets and miracle workers reported in the time of Jesus, although we might suspect that most of them were not very successful. Jesus dismisses the complaint from John, after all if someone is trying to do something worthwhile in his name, whether he is a disciple or not it is at least a step in the right direction. Even those who give a cup of water to assist in God’s work of loving and saving the world, whether they understand what they are involved in or not, will not lose their reward. And then we are drawn suddenly into something really serious. More than just rivalry or tribalism – questions about who is most important, or who is in and who is out, but about what’s most important to God when he sees us – our identity and our integrity. Don’t worry about others, Jesus says, look at yourselves. It would be better for you to drown in the sea rather than become a stumbling block. It would be better for you to cut off your hand, cut off you foot, tear out your eye than to stumble and be thrown into hell. It is a terribly difficult to make sense of all of this. And the greatest biblical scholars are unable to agree on what we should do with texts like this. What most are agreed on is that this is not one encounter in the life of Jesus and his disciples, but rather a section in the Gospel where the authors have gathered together a number of things that Jesus said, and which they do not want to be lost, and have put them together as if they were one dialogue. There have been saints – holy men and holy women – down through the centuries who have cut off arms and legs in order to seek to live pure lives. It might have helped them, I don’t know. What I am pretty sure of is that if I had brought an axe to church this morning so that we could give it a try you would have had me arrested for my own safety fairly quickly. Given that none of the disciples themselves went off and cut off their limbs we can be fairly sure that they all understood that Jesus was speaking metaphorically, in picture language, rather than literally. It is all about identity and integrity. When God looks at us he doesn’t see our hands and feet, he doesn’t see our eyes, he sees the person within us, what those around us might call the heart or the spirit, but which we Christians call the soul. That’s what is left if we cut off everything else. Without hands or feet or eyes or ears there is still something essentially alive within us. Even when life itself draws to a close in our mortal bodies, our souls live on for eternity. Jesus offers a stark contrast, two divergent possibilities for our eternal destiny. To live within God’s everlasting embrace or to be thrown into a place where that love is not present. What kinds of images were conjured up in your mind by the word ‘hell’ when you heard it in the Gospel reading a few moments ago. I suspect that if we were to spend some time talking about it honestly as a community this morning, we would discover that our imaginations are limited, or perhaps conditioned by things that we were taught a great many years ago. Some of us when we hear the word ‘hell’ will imagine fire, some of us will imagine pain, some of us will imagine the terror of nothingness. What would be true about our mind’s ability to create a picture story about hell, would of course also be true, in a more pleasant way about how we conceive of heaven, and a great many other religious ideas as well. We might not be able to pinpoint where the images that we connect with heaven and hell have come from, but for the majority of us they will have been with us for many years. Heaven and hell, living for God, or living for ourselves. These are the awful choices that Jesus places before his disciples, both then and now. Jesus says that it is like salt. Those who are truly his disciples will have flavour on the inside, and those who don’t will be like salt that has lost its saltiness. ‘Salt is good; but if salt has lost its saltiness, how can you season it?’ Stop comparing yourself to everyone else, says Jesus. Don’t worry about whether other people are doing the right thing, until you know that your soul – your identity, your integrity – is truly flavoursome for the kingdom. ‘Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.’ One biblical commentator,. But there is one other that I want to leave with you. In the time of Jesus salt was understood to be more than just a preservative, there was a sense that it could make things last for eternity. Throughout the Old Testament, in the period where God’s chosen people offered sacrifices to God of animals, they were commanded always to include salt with their sacrifices, and these sacrifices, of animals with salt, continued in the Temple in the time of Jesus. The salt was added, not to make the food taste better for God, but because there was a belief that the sacrifice, if made with salt, would last forever in God’s eyes. It would not be a momentary sacrifice consumed by the flames, but an ever-present offering before God. Knowing this, rather changes the way that we hear the words of Jesus this morning. If ever we thought that our efforts to live holy lives were momentary and insignificant, then this teaching of Jesus calls us to re-assess. Be the salt says Jesus, the flavoursome, preserving salt. Be a living sacrifice, joined with the sacrifice of Christ, because if you are, then your lives, like the life of Jesus to whom you are joined, will have an eternal consequence. If you have to lose everything – even your limbs (as it were) to keep your identity as a Child of God intact, then it would be a price worth paying in the eternal scheme of things. Put this first. Make it your life’s work. Have salt in yourselves.

OUR APARTMENTS Grand Norfolk story begins in 1867 when the then Prince of Wales Albert Edward,later know as Edward the VII, ordered the construction of a luxurious seaside resort to offer a convenient and fashionable escape from London and main other British cities. With the arrival of the railway to Mundesley a development company was set up to instigate the expansion of Mundesley. This company was called The East Coast Estates Company and architect E M Silley drew up the designs for the hotel. The Grand Hotel, as it was called, was to offer luxury accommodation to the Victorian traveler, most of whom were expected to arrive by train at the village’s brand new railway station TESTIMONIALS What a unique place to stay. It was perfect for our family as we only needed a place to sleep and we were aware the hotel was being renovated. It will be fantastic to be able to return when the renovations are complete. The history of the building is awesome. We were made to feel very welcome I booked this Air BnB in a hurry a day and a half before the actually getting there. Lucky us (4 of us), I think we chose the perfect place for the kind of vacation we were hoping for. It’s a nice place with all basic facilities. The linen was clean, and so was the bathroom. Comfortable couches and beds. The kitchen had basic utensils and microwave. All in all, it was a good choice. The town, however, is only worth a one time trip but beautiful.

It's as Frustrating as it is Disgusting This morning was spent designing a careful plan to bath, apply medicated lotion, and get the hell out of our house for 72 hours. Ani has scabies, and it's spreading. So far, Jen and I haven't seen any evidence on ourselves, but Ani's hands and feet are not looking good. We treated it a week ago, but it continued spreading. So this time, we're not going near our place for 72 hours, which is apparently the amount of time it takes scabies to die without a human host. So, Jen and Ani are in Davis with her brother and sister-in-law. I'm at my folks' house. We've got to beat these little &^%$#s or we're gonna go crazy. We spent the morning bathing strategically, just before the clothes in the dryer were finished, so we could go straight from towel to fresh clothes, out the door. Hopefully, this'll do it. 2 comments: wow! When you told me this on the phone it didn't click in my mind what it was. I hope your plan works!! eww! there was a scabies outbreak at my college one time. it was the other side of my hall... but i took advantage of the free coin laundry! hot water launder... oh boy. hope you beat it!

Appendix D INS AND THE INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM ACT The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) is committed to ensuring that all claims for refugee and asylum protection are treated with fairness, respect, and dignity. Shortly after the passage of the International Religious Freedom Act (IRFA), the INS began to assess existing asylum and refugee training programs in order to address the specific training topics required under the IRFA. The INS also has formed a working group within the agency to coordinate compliance under the law, including training, development of guidelines relating to potential hostile biases, and enforcement of the new inadmissibility provision relating to foreign government officials who have committed particularly severe violations of religious freedom. This appendix summarizes the agency's actions thus far, as required under Section 102(b)(1)(E) of the IRFA. I. Section 602 (a): Training of Refugee Adjudicators Section 602(a)(1) of the IRFA amends section 207 of the Immigration and Nationality Act by requiring the Attorney General, in consultation with the Secretary of State, to traditionally have been done by Immigration Officers stationed overseas who receive, in addition to basic) In the 18 months prior to the passage of the IRFA, the Refugee Division of the INS Office of International Affairs focused a number of training sessions on religious issues, including training on: With the passage of the IRFA, the Office of International Affairs has developed short-term strategies to ensure that issues relating to religious freedom and persecution are addressed. During fiscal year 1999, the Refugee Division has taken the following steps: To comply fully with the IRFA over the next year, the INS is exploring long-term and short-term solutions for ensuring that all Immigration Officers who adjudicate refugee applications receive training equivalent to that of Asylum Officers. Due to the differences between the asylum process and the refugee process, a new training regime is under development for refugee adjudicators that is equivalent to the pertinent portions of asylum training and also includes areas that are unique to refugee processing.(3) Until that program is in place, selected overseas officers will attend the Asylum Officer Basic Training Course (AOBTC).(4) The Refugee Division will continue to provide overseas officers with access to legal and country conditions information in the RefWorld CD-ROM databases and continue to expand "Global Reach" training in refugee and asylum issues to prepare officers for refugee adjudicatory responsibilities before they depart for overseas postings. These combined efforts will ensure that all officers with refugee processing responsibilities receive the additional training required under Section 602(a) by the end of fiscal year 2001. The Refugee Division also will continue to explore methods for providing supplemental training, such as site visits, video instruction, and other types of outreach. All persons who adjudicate refugee requests also will receive country conditions training provided primarily by the INS Resource Information Center (RIC) in the Office of International Affairs, as well as copies of the annual Department of State report on International Religious Freedom mandated by Section 102 of the IRFA. II. Section 603 (b): Training of Asylum Officers Adjudicating Asylum Cases, and Immigration Officers Performing Duties under section 235(b) of the INS (Expedited Removal). ASYLUM Asylum Officers receive focused training on religious persecution as part of the AOBTC. The topic of religious persecution also is addressed throughout the training during sessions on interviewing techniques and writing skills. Before passage of the IRFA, the INS headquarters Asylum Division directed each of the eight asylum field offices to develop training on religious persecution issues following the 1997 report by the Department of State, "United States Policy in Support of Religious Freedom: Focus on Christians." Since the passage of the Act, the Asylum Division has conducted one AOBTC and included in that training a section focused on religious persecution. The Asylum Division is in the process of writing a separate, formal lesson plan specifically on religious persecution to be used for training at the AOBTC. The division also is reviewing the exercises and examples currently in use throughout the training and augmenting them with additional exercises on religious persecution where appropriate. All Asylum Offices have conducted training on the provisions of the IRFA. Asylum Offices also have been directed by the Asylum Training Unit to deliver field office training on religious persecution issues. All offices have shown to their Asylum Officers a videotape of a training session on the IRFA conducted by the INS Office of the General Counsel. Asylum Quality Assurance and Training Coordinators (QA/Ts) have been instructed that whenever a guest speaker is invited to conduct training on conditions in a particular country, the QA/T must ensure that the speaker covers the topic of religious persecution in that country. The trainers already have begun incorporating this as standard procedure in training. The Resource Information Center in the INS Office of International Affairs serves both the Asylum Division and the Refugee Division and is responsible for the collection and distribution of materials regarding human rights conditions around the world. The RIC plans to catalog separately religious freedom periodicals and to code separately RIC responses to field queries that involve religious issues. A list of documents focused specifically on religious persecution and distributed to the asylum field offices is provided in Section V. There are also numerous reports distributed by the RIC that are country- or region-specific that do not focus on religion but which contain some information on religious persecution in that country or region. EXPEDITED REMOVAL/CREDIBLE FEAR Approximately 4,500 Immigration Inspectors and 2,500 Detention and Deportation Officers at some time may be involved in the expedited removal/credible fear process and therefore are subject to the training provisions of Section 603(b). During fiscal year 2000, the INS will conduct training on religious persecution for these officers through a combination of direct and videotaped instruction. The INS currently plans to train local coordinators and then distribute the videotape to all INS districts, ports, and sectors for mandatory viewing by all INS officers. The INS working group also is developing plans to include training on the IRFA and religious persecution at national conferences during the next fiscal year. A memorandum on the nature of the IRFA, the new inadmissibility requirement, and procedures for evaluating inadmissibility already have been issued. A second, agency-wide memorandum on issues related to the IRFA is planned. The INS IRFA working group has advised that the best approach for providing initial training on religious freedom and persecution issues is through the expansion of the basic training on asylum and human rights issues included in the Immigration Officer Basic Training course. The working group currently is engaged in discussions with the officials in charge of this program regarding course development, funding, and personnel matters. Because of the large number of persons who must receive instruction under the Act, the working group also is exploring the use of various electronic media--such as the INS intranet, e-mail, and CD-ROM technology--for conducting future update and training sessions. III. Section 602 (c): Guidelines for Addressing Hostile Biases: Employees Hired Abroad Preliminary guidelines have been drafted for the hiring of personnel abroad who work in refugee-related situations, and revisions to these drafts are under discussion within the INS working group. The INS anticipates developing the guidelines more fully through consultation with overseas personnel officers and the relevant components of the Department of State in the course of the following fiscal year. IV. Section 603 (a): Guidelines for Addressing Hostile Biases: Interpreters Guidelines for interpreters of conversations between aliens and Immigration Inspectors/Asylum Officers are to be developed jointly by the Department of State. Although some ports-of-entry rely on airline personnel for assistance, most ports are now aware of the general provisions of the IRFA relating to use of interpreters and have been advised to avoid the use of airline interpreters whenever possible for secondary inspection activities. A master contract between Language Services Associates and the INS was approved in July 1999, and while it currently is used only by Asylum Officers in the Asylum Pre-Screening program, the interpreter services that it provides are available to other components of the INS. The contract has special provisions to ensure the security and confidentiality of the credible fear process. The INS will explore expansion of the contract to include specific anti-bias provisions. The INS also will send out an agency-wide memorandum that includes information on the necessity of avoiding the use of interpreters who exhibit improper biases during any stage in the credible fear process. V. Religious Persecution Articles Distributed by the INS Resource Information Center The following is a comprehensive, chronological list of the specialized documents on abuses of religious freedom distributed by the RIC to the asylum offices and the Refugee Division since 1992. They were distributed at the time they came to the attention of the RIC, which, in some cases, was one or more years after the date of publication. This list does not include 130 post-1995 news articles that the RIC has sent to all asylum offices, 60 of which were circulated to the field in the first 7 months of 1999.).

Which Laguiole flatware is best? The tradition of fine dinnerware is well-known across the globe — full china place settings are still a staple on many wedding registries. What might be less well-known is the tradition of signature artisan flatware tied to a specific region. Laguiole flatware is one of the best examples of fine, artistic craftsmanship in tableware. When you want authentic Laguiole flatware that is the best example of this tradition, look for beautiful, timeless Dubost Olivewood Laguiole Flatware. What to know before you buy a Laguiole flatware Authenticity The first and arguably most crucial feature of Laguiole flatware is verifying that it is authentic. Laguiole is not a trademarked name or style, and many different companies make knockoffs that resemble traditional Laguiole pieces without the high-quality standards of that region. Type of flatware Laguiole flatware is available in a variety of different types. Some of these include: - Full place settings - Serving piece - Dessert sets You can use Laguiole as accent pieces or as full sets of everyday flatware. Budget The most respected makers of Laguiole flatware charge accordingly. If you are shopping on a budget and want to gradually build your collection, you might want to start with serving sets or individual pieces. Just be sure to add to your collection with pieces from the same manufacturer, as designs can differ slightly between makers. What to look for in a quality Laguiole flatware Thick stainless steel Thicker stainless steel is going to naturally be more durable and hold more substantial weight. Laguiole flatware measuring 1.5 millimeters or thinner is considered substandard and will not stand up to regular use. At a minimum, look for flatware that is 1.8 millimeters thick or more. This is the same thickness as a key. Very high-end Laguiole flatware will be 2.5 millimeters thick. Molded bees The bee insignia is the mark of Laguiole flatware. Even this simple symbol can indicate whether or not your flatware is of the highest quality. Look for bees that are molded onto the flatware rather than simply etched. Best-quality handles Whether your flatware handles are made of acrylic, timber or stainless steel, they should be the best quality of either material. Acrylic handles should be molded with no cracks or visible seams. The place where the acrylic handle and the stainless steel flatware meet should not have gaps. Timber handles will naturally have minor natural inconsistencies, but there should be no flaws and the connection between timber and stainless should also be smooth without gaps. Stainless steel handles can come in a variety of colors but should be colorfast and triple riveted to the stainless steel blade of the flatware. Made in France You can find high-quality Laguiole flatware made across the globe, but the highest quality (and highest price tag) comes from France. At the very least, look for Laguiole flatware from reputable retailers so you can be sure that it is crafted to the European standard that marks French-made pieces. How much you can expect to spend on a Laguiole flatware Poor-quality Laguiole flatware can be had for around $3 per piece. Although this is much more affordable than the $10-$15 per piece of high-end Laguiole, it will not last nearly as long. Laguiole flatware FAQ What is the origin story of Laguiole flatware? A. Laguiole began in the village in France that bears its name. In 1829, Pierre-Jean Calmels, a blacksmith, designed a simple spring-loaded pocket knife with a handle of ox horn, adding a trocar to the knife in 1840 for herders and farmers. By 1880, a corkscrew was added to this basic set. In the early 1900s, serving pieces and place settings were added to the collection. Ivory and other precious materials were used for the handle, and various symbols — a diamond, a Fleur de Lys, a four-leaf clover and a leaf — were added to the bolster of each piece as the mark of Laguiole until designers settled on what today is the sign of Laguiole: a bee. How do you care for Laguiole flatware? A. To properly care for your flatware, check with the manufacturer’s directions for the type you have. In general, acrylic and stainless steel flatware can go in the dishwasher. Take care not to use harsh detergents or any with citrus in them, as these can discolor the handles. Wood-handled Laguiole flatware should be washed by hand to preserve it. Do not use any abrasive cleaners, scrub the handles vigorously or use citrus-based cleaners. The highest-quality Laguiole flatware comes with a warranty against defects in craftsmanship, but taking good care of your set will help it to last a lifetime.

Ben Tripp, author of the zombie thriller Rise Again, has done something really cool for his fans. On his website he’s created some incredible downloadable zombie-related Christmas crafts. Zombie and crafts together at last? Be still my non-beating heart! Some of the offerings include Christmas cards, which are way more awesome than anything by Hallmark. My personal favorite is this adorable zombie child in the style of Disney artist Mary Blair. There’s also a funny New Yorker parody: And a charming Mary Blair-esque Santa. ‘Season’s Eatings’ indeed! In addition to the cards, he has some kick-ass ornament downloadables. And don’t forget to spread your zombie cheer when you hand out presents! Death by candy cane…brutal, yet also exactly like biting into a York Peppermint Patty. His most stunning creation has to be this Zombie nativity. I also found this cool Zombie snowflake template, not by Tripp but still worthy of your craft scissors. There’s a bunch of other non-Christmas stuff for you to download as well. A few of them I think would make excellent stocking stuffers. Like these wound stickers: Or perhaps some Zombie glasses? Much more disturbing than anything your inappropriate uncle will say after imbibing too much at Christmas dinner. If you’re a zombie fanatic, then you might wanna check out Tripp’s website. He also has a Rise Again fan page on Facebook, where you can cyber-canoodle with fellow zombie lovers and get updates on the Rise Again sequel. What’s your favorite zombie-related merchandise? Let us know in the comments! Desi Jedeikin >>IMAGE

If you’ve installed add-ons or plugins with your browser (like the one that came with your computer), it could be a question you're asking yourself right now. This week brought news that at least six more extensions for a popular browser were hijacked. Two similar attacks were uncovered only last week. In all these cases the hijackers “updated” the extensions to inject malicious code into web pages. More than a million local browser installations were affected. At the risk of repeating myself - local browser add-ons put your data at risk. Browsers are targeted in more than 80 percent of online attacks because inherent design flaws and the security weaknesses of common internet protocols make them the most vulnerable component of your personal or business IT. When connecting to a website, browsers indiscriminately fetch and process code from the web on the local computer. Malicious code may be hidden in a web app or passed through from an ad server on a news site. Installing extensions for your browser increases this risk multifold. This week’s cases, as documented by researcher “Kafeine” on the Proofpoint blog, and the prior week’s cases involving the extensions Copyfish (more than 30,000 users) and Web Developer (about one million users) should serve as a wake-up call: expect - much - more of the same. The Copyfish add-on, developed by a9t9 Software in Germany, was used to capture text from images, videos and PDFs. That is until criminal hackers repurposed it. For details, read this post on the Tripwire blog. The attacker(s) first hijacked the Google account the developer was using to update the extension for the Chrome browser in the Google Chrome Web Store. Then they pushed an update (“version 2.8.5”) that inserted malvertising into web pages. The Copyfish attack impacted potentially 30,000 browsers. Google acted quickly and pulled the extension from the Web Store. Only a few days later, the widely used Web Developer extension for Chrome got hit. Same modus operandi as in the Copyfish incident - the attackers phished the developer’s Google account and then pushed out a malicious update (“version 0.4.9”) - to 1,044,000 local Chrome browsers this time. And now Kafeine's discovery. Expect more browser extensions to get hijacked. The hijacking of these browser extensions demonstrates how a single pwned developer account can unlock and target an - unsuspecting - “audience” of thousands or even millions of users. Even browser market share and strict policies for web app stores ultimately cannot protect users from getting hit where it hurts their livelihood - on their computer, at home or in the office. Do we see a trend here? Considering Dan Goodin’s post on Ars Technica today on another case in point, Bank-fraud malware not detected by any AV hosted in Chrome Web Store. Twice, it certainly seems that way - and it didn’t come out of nowhere: Only a short while ago, Web of Trust (WoT), another plugin - offered as a tool for privacy protection on the internet - was found to secretly spy on its users, by design (their data was sold to a third party). In fact, 95 percent of data that disclosed the identity and browsing habits of web users to third parties were exfiltrated from ten widely used browser extensions, according to a report revealed by security researchers at DefCon in Las Vegas. Browser extensions are the gift that keeps on giving for criminal hackers. For developers and users, on the other side, the increasing complexity of IT environments has led to a loss of control, lack of transparency and less security on the web. Bad actors thrive in this environment. They find a wider attack surface and then leverage the target’s installed plugin base to exploit the inherent vulnerability of the browser. To close the loop from the headline - How do you know if a browser extension has been hijacked? Simply put, you won’t. If there’s one thing we can learn from this series of attacks, it is that even the world’s largest IT companies fail to spot such cuckoo’s eggs in their app stores before they hatch - on your computer. The good news is that there’s no law requiring you to install and run your web browser locally, risky extensions and all. Enter the “remote browser,” ranked by Gartner analysts as one of the Top Technologies in IT Security in 2017. This week may be as good a time as ever to start using a secure remote browser. Silo, the remote browser developed by Authentic8, renders all web content remotely in a secure container in the cloud. It provides insulation from all web-borne attacks when you or your team access the internet. With Silo, each new browser session starts from a clean slate. All web content is processed in a secure container launched in the cloud at the beginning of the session and erased at the end. No trace of your web activities is left behind. No code from the web (good or bad) can touch the local computer. Only a visual representation of the web page - pixels - gets back to the user, via an encrypted connection. Last but not least, with the browser now running on Authentic8’s servers instead of on your local device, the question if your browser extensions can get hijacked becomes moot. Nothing left to worry about. Enjoy the web - Silo puts you back in the driver’s seat.

PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania’s head coach for women’s soccer, Darren Ambrose, has announced the program’s 2013 schedule. The Quakers are slated to play 17 matches, nine of them at home. "We are looking forward to the upcoming season,” said Ambrose, who enters his 14th season at the helm in 2013. “We have a great returning group, and I am confident our incoming class will help us achieve our goals this year. “We have been in a title situation each of the past three years, and I think this group is motivated to be in it again and come out on top this time,” he continued. “Our early-season games will determine what we are made of before we get into the Ivy season.” Penn opens the season with three straight home matches, beginning with a pair of first-time opponents in Saint Peter’s (Friday, Sept. 6) and Mount St. Mary’s (Sunday, Sept. 8). The following Friday, Penn hosts neighborhood rival Drexel at 5 p.m., before its first match away from Rhodes Field against city foe Saint Joseph’s on Sunday, Sept. 15. Penn’s first true road trip comes the next weekend and will take the women to Virginia for a pair of games. The Quakers will meet William & Mary on Friday night and then Old Dominion on Sunday. Penn will be facing W&M for just the third time in program history, and the first time since 2001, while ODU is on the schedule for the first time since 1996. Penn opens Ivy League play on Friday, Sept. 27, traveling to Harvard to meet the Crimson at 5 p.m. The Quakers return home for a Sunday non-conference match, hosting Lehigh at 2:30 p.m. Cornell comes to Rhodes Field on Friday, Oct. 4 for a 7 p.m. match, and then Penn hosts Fairleigh Dickinson -- the Quakers’ first meeting with the Knights -- on that Sunday. The following weekend, the Quakers are at Columbia for another Ivy League match on Saturday at 4 p.m., then go to Navy for a Monday afternoon game. Penn hosts Dartmouth (Saturday, Oct. 19) and Yale (Saturday, Oct. 26) on consecutive Saturdays, sandwiching those Ivy League matches around a non-conference contest at NJIT (Tuesday, Oct. 22). The Quakers close out the regular season with a road match at Brown (Saturday, Nov. 2), and the traditional season finale against last year’s Ivy League champion, Princeton (Friday, Nov. 8). Penn finished the 2012 season with a 9-6-1 record, and for the third year in a row the Quakers entered their final match with a chance of winning at least a share of the Ivy League title. The women lost that match, 4-2 to Princeton, and ended up third in the league at 5-2-0. In the last three seasons, Penn has gone a combined 14-4-3 in Ivy play. Fifteen letterwinners return for this coming fall, and they are expected to be joined by seven newcomers. The captains for the 2013 season are seniors Brianna Rano, Kerry Scalora and Claire Walker.

MILLBURN, NJ - Millburn Township issued an update on the Douglas Street and Millburn Avenue construction with information from Arterial, LLC regarding additional 2 feet of curb on the north side of Millburn Avenue. Street Trees Street trees in 4 ft. planting beds can be provided along the proposed curbline while maintaining a 5.5 ft. sidewalk. If the curbs remain at their current width, the trees slated for planting would need to be eliminated from the project. Drainage If the current curb is left in place, the inlet in front of Gotham would require relocation and reconstruction. Driveways There are several driveways located along the northern side. The additional 2 ft. allows for properly-sloped driveway aprons and a 4 ft. clear zone to make this area ADA-compliant. *The goal of the Option B compromise is to allow the Township the flexibility to return to 2 lanes of traffic, if desired in the future. The additional 2 feet on the north side curb line and 38 foot curb to curb width of the designed roadway would allow for that flexibility.

Trump mocks Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony October 3, 2018 Media playback is unsupported on your device President Donald Trump has mocked the testimony of Christine Blasey Ford against his had said Prof Ford was a “credible” and “compelling” witness. Prof Ford told a Senate committee that Mr Kavanaugh assaulted her as a teenager, an allegation he denies. Mr Trump ordered the FBI to examine the claims following the Senate testimony. Media playback is unsupported on your device However, Prof Ford’s lawyers say the FBI has not yet spoken to her and say it is “inconceivable” that the agency could conduct a thorough investigation without interviewing her. The FBI investigation is due to be completed by Friday. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said the Senate must vote on confirming Mr Kavanaugh this week. What did Mr Trump say? He told supporters in the town of Southhaven that his political opponents had been “trying to destroy Judge Kavanaugh since the very first second he was announced”. He then mocked Prof Ford’s testimony, saying she appeared not to remember basic details about the alleged assault. .” Shortly after Prof Ford’s dramatic testimony to the Senate committee last week, Mr Trump said she was “very compelling” and described her as a “very fine woman”. Earlier on Tuesday Mr Trump reiterated his support for Mr Kavanaugh, saying he believed the Senate would approve the judge. He told reporters it was a “very scary time for young men in America when you can be guilty of something that you may not be guilty of”. What’s the reaction? On Wednesday, Republican Senator Jeff Flake – who joined a committee vote in favour of the judge with the caveat of an FBI investigation – called the president’s comments mocking Prof Ford “appalling”. “There’s no time and no place for remarks like that,” he said on NBC’s Today show. “To discuss something this sensitive at a political rally is just not right. It’s just not right. I wish he hadn’t had done it.” Senator Flake is a closely watched swing vote on this issue because Republicans can potentially only afford one defection if they are to confirm their nominee. Prof Ford’s lawyer, Michael Bromwich, described Mr Trump’s words as “a vicious, vile and soulless attack” on her. “Is it any wonder that she was terrified to come forward, and that other sexual assault survivors are as well?” he added.

When she spoke before the Senate committee last Thursday, Prof Ford recalled that the house where the alleged assault took place was in the Chevy Chase-Bethesda area in the wealthy suburbs of Washington DC. The president seemed to suggest she did not know on what floor of the property the alleged attack had occurred, but Prof Ford told senators she remembered being pushed into a bedroom on the upstairs level. She testified that it occurred in the summer of 1982. In her initial letter to Senator Dianne Feinstein, she wrote that the assault happened “during high school in the early 1980’s”. Arizona prosecutor Rachel Mitchell, who questioned Prof Ford during testimony, said she had told a polygrapher the alleged assault happened in the early 80s, then crossed out the word “early”. Prof Ford did acknowledge in her testimony that she could not provide all the details asked of her – including how she arrived at the party or how she left it and where exactly it took place. - Why sexual assault survivors forget details - Ford’s testimony through the eyes of a survivor “I don’t have all the answers, and I don’t remember as much as I would like to,” she said. “But the details about that night that bring me here today are ones I will never forget.” Experts have said it is not unusual for victims of trauma to remember certain details vividly but have little recollection of other things that the brain may have accorded less significance Kavanaugh’s Yale classmate Deborah Ramirez, who alleges that he exposed his genitals to her. A lawyer for a third woman, Julie Swetnick – who alleges Judge Kavanaugh was involved in the drugging and sexual assault of girls at house parties in the 1980s – has questioned why she has not been contacted by the FBI. - Who are Supreme Court nominee’s accusers? The judge has said he did not know Ms Swetnick and that her allegations “never happened”. Senate committee Republicans on Tuesday took the extraordinary step of releasing an explicit letter attacking Ms Swetnick, sent by a man who claims to be a former boyfriend. Ms Swetnick’s lawyer, Michael Avenatti, told the Washington Post the letter was “bogus and outrageous” – a “fabricated” attack to help Republicans “ram through this nomination”. On Sunday, the Senate Republican Communications Center said Ms Swetnick was “not credible at all”. Media playback is unsupported on your device Some reports have suggested. The Senate leader has vowed to hold a vote on the nominee this week. Dianne Feinstein, the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, has said Friday would be too soon. She argued that senators needed more time to evaluate the FBI’s findings.

To explain the functioning of the system according to the invention first of all the attention is drawn to FIG. 1 showing two masses M1 and M2 which are connected by a physical connection C with an assumed infinite stiffness and zero mass. A force F1 acting on mass M1 is for example applied by the operator's hand while force F2 acting on mass M2 is for instance applied by an object. Due to the infinite stiffness of the coupling C the two masses can be lumped as is done in the equivalent model of this system shown in FIG. 2. The balance of the two forces F1 and F2 acts on the simulated lumped masses 1/(M1+M2) generating thereby an acceleration A. Through an integrator (1/S) the velocity V is obtained and through a further integrator (1/S) the position P of the combined masses is obtained. If there is no physical connection C in FIG. 1, then FIG. 1 illustrates in fact two completely independent systems, a first system in which a force F1 acts on a mass M1 and the second system in which a force F2 acts on a mass M2. The equivalent thereof is illustrated in FIG. 3. In FIG. 3 the force F1 acts on a first mass (represented by 1/M1) resulting into an acceleration A1. By integrating (1/S) the acceleration A1 in an integrator 2 the velocity V1 is obtained and by further integration (1/S) in an integrator 4 the position P1 is obtained. In the second system in FIG. 3 the force F2 acts on the second mass (represented by 1/M2) resulting into an acceleration A2. Integrating (1/S) the acceleration A2 in integrator 6 results into a velocity V2 and integrating the velocity V2 in a further integrator 8 provides the position P2. In agreement with the invention based on the configuration illustrated in FIG. 3 now the configuration illustrated in FIG. 4 is designed. As in FIG. 3 the system illustrated in FIG. 4 comprises two subsystems. The first subsystem comprises the lumped masses 10, represented by 1/(M1 real+M2 simulated), and two integrators 12 and 14. In a node 16 the sum of the actual applied force F1 and the measured force F2 is determined and the resulting sum force signal acts on mass 10. As a result thereof the mass 10 will obtain an acceleration Acc, which through integration in integrator 12 can be converted into a velocity Vel and through further integration in integrator 14 provides the position Pos. In the same manner the second subsystem in FIG. 4 comprises the lumped mass 20, represented by 1/(M1 simulated+M2 real) and two integrators 22 and 24. In node 26 the sum of the simulated force F1 and the actual applied force F2 is determined and the resulting sum force signal acts on the mass 20 resulting into an acceleration Acc'. By integrating twice in integrators 22 and 24 the velocity Vel' and the position Pos' are found. If it may be assumed that in FIG. 4 M1 simulated=M1 real M2 simulated=M2 real F1 simulated=F1 applied F2 simulated=F2 applied then Acc=Acc', Vel=Vel' and Pos=Pos'. In that case the resultant feel, experienced by the human operator acting through the manual control means on the one actuator is the same as if the human operator was in fact acting on the object, handled by the other actuator. The human operator feels the dynamics of the mass M1 and the dynamics of the mass M2 as if the are connected by an infinite stiff link with zero mass as in FIG. 2. Vice versa the object "feels" the applied force as if both masses are connected by an infinite stiff link with zero mass. The system in FIG. 4 relies on the use of simulated forces. For the simulation the masses need to be connected to an electric, hydraulic or pneumatic actuator as is illustrated in FIG. 5. The model follower illustrated in FIG. 5 enables the simulation of the dynamics of a pure mass. The actuator 30 acts on a mass 31. The mass 31 in FIG. 5 (for example a rotary electric actuator) is equipped with an output arm 32 by means of which operations (in this case only linear operations) can be performed. Between the arm 32 and the mass 31 a force transducer 34 is installed for measuring the force Fa applied to the operating arm 32 by the human operator. Furthermore the actuator 30 is coupled to a tachometer 36 or other velocity sensing means for measuring the velocity Vm with which the mass and therewith the operating arm moves momentarily. In stead of a tachometer, measuring the velocity directly, the velocity can be determined indirectly by integrating the acceleration or differentiating the position of the actuator 30. As soon as a force Fa is applied manually to the operating arm 32 the force sensor 34 will generate a signal Fm representing the measured force and will supply this signal to a model follower control system 38. The model follower control system 38 contains a model of the desired dynamics, in this case a model of the mass M. The signal Fm is divided by said mass to obtain a commanded acceleration signal Ac. This commanded acceleration signal Ac is time integrated (1/S) resulting into a commanded velocity signal Vc. As indicated the actuator 30 is connected to a tachometer 36 which provides a measured velocity signal Vm indicating the actual velocity with which the mass 31 and therewith the arm 32 is moving. Both the commanded velocity signal Vc and the measured velocity signal Vm are compared to each other in a comparator 40 and the resulting velocity error signal is supplied to an actuator control circuit comprising the controller 42 and an amplifier 44 supplying at its output the actuator control signal to the actuator 30. If the controller 42, the amplifier 44, and the actuator 30 are properly selected, the mass 31 and therewith the arm 32 will accelerate such that it obtains the commanded velocity. It will be clear that the functioning of this model follower is clearly dependent both on the applied force Fa as well as the mass M, representing the desired dynamics inside the controller 38. Preferably but not necessary the controller 42 is a PI controller. To avoid any uncertainty in relation to the position of the arm 32 it is preferred to apply the further developed embodiment illustrated in FIG. 6. All components which are also present in the embodiment in FIG. 5 are indicated by the same reference numbers. Added in FIG. 6 is a position sensor 46 providing a measured position signal Pm. Furthermore the model follower control system 38' has some additions for correcting purposes as will be explained in the following. In the model follower control system 38' the measured force signal Fm is first of all converted in an commanded acceleration signal Ac and thereafter converted into a commanded velocity signal Vc in the same way as was performed in FIG. 5. Then the commanded velocity signal Vc is time integrated again resulting into a commanded position signal Pc. This signal Pc is compared in comparator 48 with the measured position signal Pm resulting into a position error signal which, after attenuation/amplification by Kp is delivered to node 50. In node 50 the commanded velocity vc is corrected by this position error signal. This effectively compensates for any possible drift. To compensate for the limited bandwidth of the actuator 30 phase lead can be obtained by adding the commanded acceleration signal Ac, after attenuation or amplification by Ka, to the commanded velocity Vc also in node 50. Finally, just as in FIG. 5, the (now corrected) commanded velocity signal Vc is compared with the measured velocity signal Vm in comparator 40 and the resulting velocity error signal is used, through controller 42 and amplifier 44 to control the actuator 30. If the schematic diagram in FIG. 4 is combined with a model follower as illustrated in FIG. 5 or more preferably illustrated in FIG. 6, then the schematic diagram in FIG. 7 is obtained. This diagram illustrates two subsystems, which are crosswise connected. The first subsystem comprises the model follower control system 60a, the amplifier 62a, the mass 64a, the force sensor 66a, and a node 68a. The second subsystem comprises the model follower control system 60b, the amplifier 62b, the mass 64b, the force sensor 66b, and a node 68b. The force Fa applied on the mass 64a is measured by the force sensor 66a. The measured signal Fam is applied both to node 68a as well as to node 68b. The force Fb acting on mass 64b is measured by force sensor 66b. The measured signal Fbm is applied both to node 68a and to node 68b. A more detailed embodiment of the schematical diagram illustrated in FIG. 7 is shown in FIG. 8. In FIG. 8 the model follower illustrated in FIG. 5 is applied twice. The simulated masses in both model follower control systems 38a and 38b are set to M1+M2. In FIG. 8 all the components which are already known from FIG. 5 are indicated by the same reference numbers followed by either "a" for the first subsystem or "b" for the second subsystem. The measured force signal Fam measured by the force transducer 34a is applied to a node 70a together with the measured force signal Fbm provided by force transducer 34b. Both measured force signals are also provided to node 70b. The output signals from both nodes 70a and 70b are delivered to the model follower control systems 38a and 38b respectively. If the operator applies a force Fa to the force sensor 34a connected to mass M1 (31a), then both actuators 30a and 30b and their coupled masses 31a and 31b (M1 and M2) will accelerate by Fa/(M1+M2) to obtain the commanded velocity. The human operator feels M1+M2 connected through an infinite stiff link with zero mass. As already said it is preferred to use the mass follower illustrated in FIG. 6. A dual circuit on the basis of FIG. 7, whereby the follower circuit of FIG. 6 is applied twice, is illustrated in FIG. 9. The various components belonging to both subsystems illustrated in FIG. 9 are indicated by the same reference numbers as in FIG. 6 whereby for the first subsystem these numbers are followed by "c" and for the second subsystem these reference numbers are followed by "d". A detailed discussion about the functioning of the whole system is considered superfluous. To assure that any component tolerances will not lead during operating to position errors or velocity errors between both subsystems the actual position signals Pcc from subsystem c and Pcd from subsystem d are compared in comparator 72 resulting into a position error signal Pe. In the same manner the velocity signal Vcc from subsystem c and the velocity signal Vcd from subsystem d are compared in comparator 74 resulting into a velocity error signal Ve. After attenuation/amplification by Kc the position error signal is supplied to node 76 where it is combined with the velocity error signal, which eventually is amplified/attenuated by Kd. The resulting signal at the output of node 76 is supplied as correction to nodes 70c and 70d. Therewith the system strives to a situation in which Ve and Pe remain zero. Instead of the command position and velocity signals Pcc, Pcd, Vcc and Vcd the measured position and velocity signals at the outputs of the sensors 36c, 36d, 46c, 46d can be used for deriving error signals Pe' and Ve'. This embodiment is not illustrated separately. Up to now it is assumed that only the masses M1 and M2 can have different values whereas the acceleration A, the velocity V and the position P of these masses is the same in both subsystems. However, the forces, velocities and positions can be scaled to obtain special effects. A simple example would be the software implementation of a mechanical gearbox that amplifies the forces while reducing the position with a factor G, the gearing ratio. In that case the manually operated controller would be connected to the slave actuator through an infinitely stiff virtual gearbox. This feature can for instance be used to make the operator more sensitive when handling a delicate remote object or to make the operator more powerful when handling heavy objects. An example based on the embodiment of FIG. 9 is illustrated in FIG. 10. In FIG. 10 only the central part of the circuit in FIG. 9 is illustrated. Node 70c receives the force signal Fcm as well as the force signal Fdm which is divided by G. The bounced signal forms the input signal for control circuit 38c. The node 70d receives the force signal Fdm as well as the other force signal Fcm, which is multiplied by G. The balance of these signals at the output of node 70d is used as input signal for control circuit 38d. If a velocity error signal Ve and a position error signal Pe are generated as in FIG. 9 then a modification of the circuit is necessary as is illustrated in FIG. 10. The velocity signal Vcc is provided to node 74 after it is multiplied by G. The velocity signal Vcd is provided to the node 74 after it is divided by G. The resulting error signal Ve' is (after attenuation or amplification) supplied to both nodes 70c and 70d. The position signal Pcc is first multiplied by G and then provided to node 72. The position signal Pcd is divided by G and then applied to node 72. The resulting error signal Pe' is (after attenuation or amplification) delivered to both nodes 70c and 70d. It is remarked that the above-mentioned gearing ratio G can be a constant factor or a function of an arbitrary variable x, expressed as G(x), or any other function. The above-described control system reflects a single degree of freedom. In the case multiple degrees of freedom have to be used in the remote manipulator each of the joints of the remote manipulator can be equipped with the above-described control system and then connected to equivalent joints of a multiple degree of freedom manual controller also being equipped with the control system according to the invention. In many cases it will be possible to combine a number of the force transducers such that this number is smaller then the number of degrees of freedom, resulting into a reduction of costs. In that case a calculation is performed to estimate the force at the joint. The estimated forces are then cross connected as described and illustrated in FIGS. 7, 8. The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the attached drawings. FIG. 1 illustrates a system with two masses which are physically connected. FIG. 2 illustrates an equivalent model of the system in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 illustrates two basic force responding systems which are not coupled. FIG. 4 illustrates the situation in which both systems act as if they are coupled. FIG. 5 illustrates an embodiment of the model follower used within the system according to the invention. FIG. 6 illustrates a more sophisticated embodiment of the model follower used in the system according to the invention. FIG. 7 illustrates a general diagram of a system according to the invention. FIG. 8 illustrates a detailed embodiment of a system according to the invention. FIG. 9 illustrates a further detailed embodiment of a system according to the invention. FIG. 10 illustrates a further detailed embodiment of a system according to the invention. The invention relates to the field of robotics and more specific to manipulators used for the remote handling of objects. As such telemanipulation control systems are known. Several embodiments are described in "Developments of new force reflecting control schemes and an application to a teleoperation training simulator" by Won S. Kim in Proceedings of the 1992 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, May 1992. In this article several classes of systems are distinguished. In a first class of prior art controllers, the so-called force reflecting (FR) controllers, the position of the remote manipulator (slave) is controlled by a human operator through a master arm, while the contact forces in the slave are sensed by a force sensor and are reflected back to the master arm. Due to stability problems the force reflection gain is limited to approximately 1/10, i.e. when the remote manipulator arms senses 10 N the operator can only sense 1 N. A second class of prior art controllers is based on the so-called shared compliance control (SCC). This type of control makes the robot more compliant by low pass filtering the force from the sensor. In this way the force reflection gain can be increased. A third class of prior art controllers uses a combination of FR and SCC. A fourth class of prior art controllers uses the position error based force reflection, where the force reflection is made proportional to the position error between the commanded and actual position of the slave arm. The fifth class of prior art controllers is a combination of SCC and position error based force reflection. A common characteristic of all the above-described prior art controllers is that these controllers use the commanded position of the human operator (the manual controller) as a commanded position (setpoint position) for the remote arm. All the prior art controllers are therefore essentially position controllers, dependent on the control (and therefore the existence) of a position error between the commanded position (human operator) and the actual position of the remote manipulator arm. Dependent on the class of prior art controllers this position error is noticeable (for example feels as a damped spring) between hand controller and remote controller and does not allow accurate positioning and "feel" due to this compliance. U.S. Pat. No. 5,116,180 describes a telemanipulation system where only the force from the remote manipulator arm is sensed and fed back to the hand controller. The international patent application WO-9510080 describes a system where a force is calculated based on position only. U.S. Pat. No. 5,004,391 describes a system where only the force from the remote manipulator arm is sensed and fed back to the hand controller. The article "A new Robot for High Dexterity Microsurgery" by P. S. Schenker et al., Proceedings of the first International Conference of CVRMed'95, April 1995, describes a system based on position control only. An object of the invention is now to provide a control system for telemanipulation comprising two manipulators, one to be used by the human operator and the other to be used for the remote control of objects, whereby the two manipulators act as if the are linked by a linkage having a virtual infinite stiffness allowing for a very precise control of the remote manipulator such that the human operator gets the feeling as if he in fact operates the remote manipulator through said simulated infinite stiff link. In agreement with this object the invention now provides a system comprising a first circuit containing: a first actuator acting on a first mass and controlled by a first actuator signal, a first manual control means coupled to said first actuator a first force transducer measuring the force applied on the first manual control means, a first velocity transducer measuring the velocity of the first manual control means, a first control circuit representing a model of the dynamics of a moving mass the input signal of which is divided by a simulated mass to obtain a first commanded acceleration signal, which is time integrated to obtain a first commanded velocity signal, a first actuator controller the input signal of which is the balance between the first commanded velocity signal and the velocity of the first manual control means, a second circuit containing: a second actuator acting on a second mass and controlled by a second actuator signal, a second manual control means coupled to said second actuator, a second force transducer measuring the force applied on the second manual control means, a second velocity transducer measuring the velocity of the second manual control means, a second control circuit representing a model of the dynamics of a moving mass the input signal of which is divided by a simulated mass to obtain a second commanded acceleration signal, which is time integrated to obtain a second commanded velocity signal, a second actuator controller the input signal of which is the balance between the second commanded velocity signal and the velocity of the second manual control means, whereby the simulated mass in the first and second control circuit is a simulation of the sum of the first mass and the second mass and whereby the balance of the two measured forces is applied as input signal to the first and second control circuits. In this system two masses are employed which are not physically connected but are coupled through a control system such that the two masses have dynamics as if they were physically connected. The applied forces are reflected at both masses and the resultant feel, acceleration, velocity, and position of both masses are then identical to that of a lumped mass system. In order to simulate the dynamics of a pure mass the invention also provides a model follower comprising an actuator acting on a mass and controlled by a first actuator signal, a manual control means coupled to said actuator a force transducer measuring the force applied on the manual control means, a velocity transducer measuring the velocity of the manual control means, a control circuit representing a model of the dynamics of a moving mass the input signal of which is divided by a simulated mass to obtain a commanded acceleration signal, which is time integrated to obtain a commanded velocity signal, an actuator controller the input signal of which is the balance between the commanded velocity signal and the velocity of the manual control means.

Dr. Keith Edgerton is recognized as an excellent instructor and scholar who shares his expertise and passion for history by inspiring independent, disciplined and creative thinking among his students. “Dr. Edgerton has served this campus for a generation,” a colleague said. “He has worked to cultivate in his students a love of history…and has taken the world into his classroom through his scholarly research.” The many courses of which he has developed including “Making Sense of the Sixties” and “The American West” are now mainstays of the U.S. history curriculum. Also extremely popular is the “History of Vietnam” a course that was designed and taught to prepare students for a study abroad experience in Vietnam. He is recognized among his colleagues for thinking expansively and dynamically about learning and for engaging students in and out of the classroom. One colleague notes that Keith’s passion for teaching has inspired other faculty members in the History Department to re-examine their commitment to teaching. His extraordinary list of professional service is a refection of his leadership, including serving as his department’s chair since 2012, an officer for the faculty union and as the Faculty Association’s president. “He has worked hard to make teaching on this campus as fulfilling as possible,” a colleague said. Keith has also embraced a clear commitment to serving the community as a go-to resource for campus and community lectures and panels, an expert in Montana history, western Americana and environmental history. Keeping on top of the latest research and trends of his field, he has written two books and dozens of book reviews and articles. “He is a humanist scholar,” his colleague noted. “His scholarship is clearly in service to his teaching—perhaps the best kind of scholarship at a teaching institution like MSUB.”

TAMPA — There would be no fourth-quarter heroics for USF this time, no amazing comeback, just another embarrassing Thursday night loss as Rutgers pulled away to a 23-13 win at Raymond James Stadium. After rallying to tie the score in the fourth quarter, the Bulls got the ball twice in the final seven minutes — first with the score tied, then down three points — but there was no late-game magic as there was last week against Nevada. Quarterback B.J. Daniels missed on six of his final seven passes, including one on fourth and 4 with 2:20 to play. Rutgers put the game away with a 41-yard touchdown run by Jawan Jamison with 1:19 left. USF (2-1, 0-1 Big East) committed four turnovers and couldn't get Rutgers (3-0, 1-0) off the field on third down, allowing one long conversion after another. For a team hopeful of winning an elusive Big East title and coming off a wild comeback win at Nevada, the Bulls dropped to 1-7 in conference games at home in three seasons under Skip Holtz. For all the frustration of the first three quarters, USF got a huge break when Daniels' third-down pass went off the fingertips of 6-foot-2 Rutgers corner Marcus Cooper into the hands of 5-5 receiver Derrick Hopkins at the Rutgers 1-yard line. On the next play, Demetris Murray scored to tie it at 13. USF had the ball with the chance to take the lead, but the offense fizzled, with three consecutive incompletions by Daniels, setting up Rutgers for a chance to break the tie. Gary Nova found receiver Tim Wright for a 46-yard gain, setting up Rutgers at the USF 7. The defense held, and Kyle Federico hit a 22-yard field goal for a 16-13 lead with 2:48 left. USF entered 0-8 in Thursday night games on ESPN, dating to a 2007 loss to Rutgers when the Bulls were ranked No. 2 in the nation. On this Thursday, much of the Bulls' troubles were self-inflicted. USF had three scoreless trips inside the Rutgers' 30, including an interception on a bobbled pass at the goal line as the Bulls looked to tie it late in the third quarter. The Bulls led the entire first half but never were in control, getting a pair of early field goals by Maikon Bonani but not moving the ball with consistency and needing help from Rutgers to hold the lead. After throwing three touchdown passes of 50-plus yards in Saturday's win at Nevada, the Bulls struck for two long plays in the second quarter but couldn't turn either into points. Daniels found Andre Davis for a 44-yard gain, but facing fourth and 1 at the Rutgers' 28, Daniels was stopped for no gain. The next drive saw Daniels hit Terrence Mitchell for a 58-yard gain, but Daniels was intercepted from the Rutgers 25. The Bulls led 6-3 at halftime and forced a three-and-out to open the second half, but for the second week in a row, Mitchell lost a fumble on a punt return, setting Rutgers up at the USF 37. A field goal tied it a 6. Another Daniels interception, this on a screen off the hands of Murray, set up Rutgers at the Bulls' 30, and the Scarlet Knights got the game's first touchdown on a 6-yard throw from Nova to Mark Harrison for a 13-6 lead. Answering that, USF had its first sustained drive, going from its 25 to the Rutgers' 3-yard line, but Daniels' throw was bobbled by tight end Evan Landi and intercepted in the end zone by Rutgers' Wayne Warren. USF had a quick turnaround, playing Thursday after a long trip to Nevada and a return flight that got them back to Tampa at about 3 a.m. Sunday. Rutgers, too, had a short week but was coming off an easy 26-0 home win against I-AA Howard. The Bulls next have two nonconference games, traveling to Ball State next weekend then returning home for Florida State on Sept. 29. .

Look, let’s talk summer recipes. The sexiest thing you can say to me after “Avengers Nude Fro-Yo Wrestling” is “No-Bake”. My favorite side/lunch/snack/dinner in the summer happens to be flash picked cucumbers. The key to this shit is finding the right cucumbers. I fucking love them. Beauty accessories and food. What more can I ask of a vegetable? Any cucumber will do in a pinch, but for the truly lazy and those that have a refined palate (haha), you have to go find Persian Cucumbers. Persian cucumbers are the sexiest motherfucking vegetables you will put in your mouth. 1) You don’t have to peel them and 2) They are slightly sweet, but retain that typical cucumber zest and refreshing quality. Half the time, I end up just eating a whole one like a goddamn churro. Recipe: 🔪3-4 Persian Cucumbers (preferably organic) 🔪Medium Sized Bowl 🔪Apple Cider Vinegar (preferably organic) 🔪1 tsp Turbinado Sugar 🔪Water (preferably purified) 🔪Fresh Ground Peppercorn (optional) Wash and then slice the cucumbers into the desired “chip” size. Toss them into a bowl and pour apple cider vinegar over the veggies until you’ve coated the bottom of the bowl and the cucumbers are floating. (I have no idea how much vinegar you need, just eyeball it.) Add in a teaspoon of the sugar. Add maybe 1/4 a cup of purified water. You’re going for a 3 to 1 ration on the vinegar and water. Mix it. Grind fresh peppercorn to taste. Profit. (You can eat it now, or refrigerate it for a few hours and then eat it.) I think I’ll try this.

Liverpool legend David Fairclough has warned Daniel Sturridge that he cannot expect to walk back into the Reds' first team when he eventually returns from injury, reports the Daily Mail. The England forward has been out-of-action since April with a recurring hip injury and featured just 12 times last season, much to Liverpool fans' frustration. And while Sturridge remains arguably Brendan Rodgers' most clinical option upfront, even despite the summer acquisition of Christian Benteke, Fairclough has insisted that the 26-year-old must expect to work his way back into the frame.

Sturridge enjoyed his best form on Merseyside when partnered with departed-star Luis Suarez in the 2013/14 campaign, during which Liverpool fell just short of winning the Premier League title, and has failed to replicate such form since, owed largely to injuries. Since then, Rodgers has sought for cover in the absence of the England international in the aforementioned Benteke, who has already opened his competitive account with Liverpool, scoring in the club's 1-0 win over Bournemouth, alongside Brazilian star Roberto Firmino and Danny Ings. Rodgers' urge to bring in reinforcements cements Fairclough's view that Sturridge faces stern competition upon his return, though the former Reds striker believes that the pacey forward could thrive upon a potential partnership with his new Belgian team-mate. "Sturridge will benefit from having someone like Benteke alongside him," he said. "Benteke is happy to play with his back towards defenders, Sturridge is probably a little bit more comfortable coming off defenders and picking up wider positions. "That's maybe where he benefited from [Luis] Suarez really - Suarez was the main man so I think with Benteke, Sturridge should flourish." The return of Sturridge is something that Rodgers will undoubtedly be looking forward to, even despite the choices he'll have to make with regards to how he can incorporate his injury-plagued frontman. Regardless, though, the England forward remains one of the Premier League's most clinical finishers and the Reds will fare far better with him involved in their set up than without him.

[ The Siberian 'Katorga' in Imperial Russia. ] English translation (by Peter Kropotkin?) from the French, of Émile Andreoli's account of his captivity following the January Uprising, titled ''Siberian Convicts' Life'. Containing unpublished material.. The background of the present item is as follows. A serialisation from Andreoli's Siberian diaries (described as 'la première série', but all published) appeared in Paris in 1868, under his name and the title 'De Pologne en Sibérie. Journal de Captivité. 1864-1867'. Divided into 43 chapters, and ironically dedicated to Tsar Alexander, it appeared over four issues of the 'Revue Moderne' (25 August, 10 and 25 September, and 10 October). The present English translation, in 19 chapters, is in some ways based on that selection (it borrows the chapter summaries, for example), but it includes material not present in the 'Revue Moderne' version, and was clearly made with an eye to English readers ('la dernière de no sous-préfecture' in the French version is rendered as 'the meanest of the English cities' in the translation), and with reference to the original French manuscript. The present version is heavily revised in black ink manuscript, in a hand strikingly similar to Kropotkin's, with additional pencil notes in French in another hand, presumably that of Andreoli. (In his 'In Russian and French Prisons' (1887), Kropotkin refers to 'M. Andreoli's paper on Polish Exiles in 1863-1867, which appeared in the Revue Moderne, [...] I hope to publish soon an episode of Polish exile of which I was an eye-witness, and which, I am afraid, will rather confirm M. Andreoli's revelations'.) . The translator's ink emendations include minor additions, and also proof markings, and the volume was clearly intended for publication (in Kropotkin's 'Freedom' newspaper?). There is however no indication that the English translation appeared in any form, and as a consequence the passages only present in the English translation are entirely unpublished. The 19 chapters in the English translation roughly correspond to material in Chapters 14 to 35 of 'Revue Moderne' version. As the chapter summaries given at the end of this description indicate, the author is shrewd, intelligent and observant, mixing first-person narrative with historical and biographical information, his experience presenting a strange mixture of horror and gentility. (He is not entirely trustworthy: the story of 'Vera Paolovna', from Chernyshevsky's 'What is to be done', is given as fact.) The present translation opens dramatically with Andreoli's arrival in Siberia, omitting the material in the first thirteen chapters of 'Revue Moderne' version, which describes how he left his employment teaching in Paris, and travelled to Poland with the Italian patriot Francesco Nullo (1826-1863), in order to support the Poles in their resistance against the Russians. Following Nullo's death Andreoli and eight Italian fighters were captured and condemned to death, the sentence being remitted to 'twelve years hard labour in the mines'. Chapter 1 of the present item opens with the following, which is not present in the 'Revue Moderne' version. 'Halt! vociferated the officer, standing up in his carriage and stopping all the clumsy carts in which for so many days we had been keeping our equilibrium with difficulty on account of the violent motion and bad roads. It is quite unusual to stop anywhere but in the villages, at the post-station, or at the prison. All through the long days and nights during which we have been travelling from Moscow at a mad pace, the officers had never ordered a halt on the road. | "Gentlemen", he said, "you have just passed the frontier; you are in Siberia. Then, lighting a cigar, he waved his hand, shouting at the drivers to move forward. Strogaities! and away we went. | How a small trifle may affect one! These four words of the officer: you are in Siberia, wrung our hearts and made us pensive. We well knew, however, that we were on our way here, and what is worse, that we are convicts, condemned to work in the mines. What a brute of an officer!' The last paragraph of the last chapter of the present item is again not present in the 'Revue Moderne' version. After describing various alleged Russian war atrocities Andreoli writes: 'I relate these horrible incidents, but I must point out that the story of the breaking of the ropes used for hanging is a re-edition [last word deleted] of the hanging of the Decemberists, Pestel, Ryleieff, &c. Without wishing to palliate the cruelty of the conquerors, it is only fair to point out the tendency which exists to surround the death of the defeated with a certain amount of legendary glory, and to reproduce exaggerations, and details which are either inaccurate or untrue.' A long passage, present in the last chapter of the present version, is not present in the French version, and it begins with an interpolation by the pencil annotator: 'Those men cannot imagine that we are sent for good to Siberia. They all believe that within a few weeks we shall be called back, and what will happen to them if we say that some of us have been wounded or flogged?' What follows is not in the French version: 'It is very fortunate that meat is not expensive, for our purses are so very light that we could not buy much were it not very cheap. Beef is sold at two and a half kopeks per pound. With cabbage and potatoes this can be made into good soup, giving us strength to go further on our journey.' A passage of ten lines follows, again not present in the French version, with a marginal note in pencil, asking for it to be placed 'plus haut'. The nineteen chapters have the following summaries: 1, 'In Siberia; the "party" on the way to Tobolsk; the Prison and the Director; the Chapel; Prikaz; the Expedition; new clothing.' 2, 'Three of our companions are put in irons; we set off with the convicts; soldiers; the station; our rooms; Richard and his pipe. Sluchai; Tobolsk; Books on Tobolsk.' 3, 'Viera; the Brodiaga doctor.' 4, 'Statistics of prisoners; the ancient governors; Gagarine Fedor Ivanovitch Semionoff.' 5, 'The banished bell; the Knout; the Gagarine family; Gagarin's [sic] wife; Siberian population; flooded Etapes; the Niestchastnie.' 6, 'An English Member of Parliament; convicts; some extracts from the Russian Code; convicts and their grades; how they are treated; the wheelbarrow; the miechok (sack); the Minister's car; the cadene;' 7, 'The brand; cotton and needles; the grajdanski rob us; hours of waiting at the ostrog gates; bad weather; dangerous roads.; 8, 'His Excellency Goulkievitch; Goulkievitch stories; the firemen; the Tartar merchants.

COLOMBO (Reuters) – Sri Lanka’s parliament passed a no-confidence motion against newly appointed Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa on Wednesday, presenting a standoff with the opposition and throwing the country deeper into turmoil. Sri Lanka’s parliament members argue in front of Speaker of the Parliament Karu Jayasuriya during the parliament session in Colombo, Sri Lanka November 14, 2018. REUTERS/Stringer. Government officials said there was confusion about who was in charge. “We need cabinet approvals to go ahead with large value projects,” one told Reuters. “We don’t know if a cabinet exists or not.” Sirisena dissolved parliament last week and ordered elections as a way to break the deadlock but the Supreme Court ordered a suspension of that decree on Tuesday until it had heard petitions challenging the decree as unconstitutional. Wickremesinghe, who had refused to vacate the prime minister’s residence, said he intended to discharge his official responsibilities now that he had proved his majority in parliament. Speaker Karu Jayasuriya said the no-confidence vote against Rajapaksa was supported by 122 members of the 225-member house. “A majority voted in favor of the no-confidence motion and thus the no-confidence motion was passed,” Jayasuriya said in a statement. But. The instability in the island nation of 21 million people has raised concerns for its tourism-dependent economy, already expanding at its slowest pace in more than a decade. On Wednesday, the central bank unexpectedly raised its key policy rates, a move aimed at defending a faltering rupee as foreign capital outflows picked up. But the currency. Wickremesinghe, who has sought to promote ties with India and the West to balance Sri Lanka’s relations with China, said he intended to. According to the constitution, the president has to appoint a prime minister who in his opinion can command the majority in parliament. Sirisena has said he will never appoint Wickremesinghe as prime minister again. The parliamentary speaker has called the president’s sacking of the prime minister to bring a former leader back to power a non-violent coup.

ROSEMONT, Ill. (AP) — Blowout or buzzer-beater, Casey Mitchell didn’t care. All he knew was West Virginia needed a win over DePaul and that’s exactly what it got — barely. Mitchell scored 18 points, and the Mountaineers beat the Blue Demons 67-65 after blowing a 14-point lead in the second half on Tuesday night. “We didn’t care if we threw up a backwards game-winning shot and won the game,” Mitchell said. “We just needed a win, and it’s tough to come from behind in the Big East three games down.” With a 58-44 lead with about 10 minutes remaining, the Mountaineers (9-4, 1-2) appeared to be in good shape after opening Big East play with losses to St. John’s and Marquette. Instead, they barely escaped against arguably the conference’s worst team. Things got real interesting in the closing minutes when DePaul’s Jeremiah Kelly (nine points) buried a 3-pointer after a turnover to make it a two-point game and then hit another with 1:31 left to tie it at 63 after a free throw by Cam Thoroughman. Darryl Bryant answered with a three-point play to give West Virginia a three-point lead. DePaul’s Brandon Young hit two free throws with 49.9 seconds left to make it 66-65, but the Mountaineers hung on. John Flowers hit the second of two free throws with 0.9 seconds left after Young missed a jumper from the wing following a timeout, sending DePaul (6-9, 0-3) to its 16th straight loss against conference opponents. Mitchell hit three 3-pointers. Deniz Kilicli added 14 points on 7-of-8 shooting, Kevin Jones scored 13 and West Virginia hit 28 of 54 shots. Even so, it struggled to beat a team that’s gone nearly a year without a conference win. “We just made dumb plays,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. “Dumb plays, ill-advised plays.” Freshman Cleveland Melvin led DePaul with 17 points after scoring 29 in the previous game against Georgetown. Young scored 12, Krys Faber added 10 points, but the Blue Demons remained winless in conference play since beating Marquette last Jan. 20. They dropped their final 13 games last season, including a loss to South Florida in the Big East tournament, and aren’t having better luck yet under new coach Oliver Purnell. “I think what you take from it is it’s a pretty good team,” Purnell said. “They had a chance to win the game. You didn’t win it. You’ve got to do some other things — maybe at the beginning of the first half, beginning of the second half — better so it doesn’t come down to one shot, but we gave ourselves an opportunity to win by coming back. I think they will believe a little bit more, obviously, if we had won the game.” The way Kelly sees it, it’s just a matter of time before DePaul wins a Big East game — and that time is soon. “The next one,” he said. “I think once we get one, we’ll be fine. But we’ve got to get one.” Leading 50-44, West Virginia scored eight straight to go up by 14 midway through the second half, a three-point play by Joe Mazzulla capping the run and making it 58-44. But the Blue Demons got right back in it. A 3-pointer by Jimmy Drew with about five minutes left capped an 11-2 run and cut it to 60-55, injecting some drama back into a game that appeared to be getting away from DePaul. West Virginia was sloppy at times, committing 16 turnovers. That led to 22 points for the Blue Demons, helping them stay in the game even though they shot just 40 percent for the game and struggled from the field in the early going. “We’ve just got to be mentally tough,” Mitchell said. “When we get leads, guys tend to do things out of their game instead of doing things that got us the lead.”

Worms Head from Burry Holms Given that Gower is such a well photographed location, it is often a challenge to try and find a viewpoint or angle that hasn't been done to death. A recent low tide presented such an opportunity to me as I was exploring Burry Holms at the north end of Rhossili bay. The inlet between the island and the mainland provided a perfect frame for Worms Head in the distance. I was trying to decide a favourite from the following two photos but I couldn't so here they both are. Let me know what you think.

These materials focus primarily on federal and state proposals related to the streamlining of the HIV testing process, from more patient-tailored pre-test and post-test counseling to the elimination of informed, documented consent. Resources in this section also include slide presentations and journal articles on the effectiveness of voluntary HIV counseling and testing approaches; the importance of voluntariness and autonomy in health care decisionmaking to marginalized populations, particularly people of color; and the role of HIV testing as a gateway to comprehensive HIV health care and support services. In response to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) push for expanded HIV testing without counseling, documented consent, or assurances of linkage to care, a group of HIV legal, medical, and service organizations endorsed these fundamental principles to guide the implementation of expanded voluntary testing for HIV. The fundamental principles emphasize that HIV testing must always be informed, voluntary, confidential, and supported by health care and other services, and that testing is always most effective when offered by someone trusted and trustworthy. The primary authors of the Principles are The Center for HIV Law and Policy, AIDS Foundation of Chicago, and Lambda Legal. Click here to download. Proposals to change HIV counseling and testing protocols rest on claims that current laws incorporating informed, documented. This slide presentation, reviews evidence demonstrating that, even from an economic perspective, a multi-component, multi-level, evidence-based comprehensive national HIV prevention plan for the United States is most effective. Holtgrave reasons that such a plan must address not only individual risk behaviors but also structural issues such as homelessness, poverty, social capital and income equality. His review of the evidence demonstrates that targeted HIV counseling and testing has substantially more public health benefits than opt-out testing, at the same cost. Click here to download. Click here to listen to CHLP Executive Director Catherine Hanssens discuss principles testing at the AIDS 2008 conference. by Joseph Sonnabend, M.D., CHLP Medical Resource Specialist, and Ashley Burczak, CHLP Program and Development Associate With little attention to the concern of patients and their advocates, the medical establishment has largely taken up the aggressive push of the 2006 CDC recommendations on HIV testing in clinical settings as a tool to eliminate informed consent to diagnosis and care. This is truly unfortunate, and contrary to patients’ best interests. The embrace of “opt-out” HIV testing, in which patients essentially are told they will be tested unless they object, is at odds with hard-won advances in physicians’ ethical requirements for dealing with patient interventions with potentially serious health implications. More In response to a CDC request for comments, 35 organizations endorsed a joint letter submitted to CDC regarding its draft implementation guidance for HIV testing expansion in correctional settings. The Center for HIV Law and Policy, Lambda Legal, and the AIDS Foundation of Chicago drafted the letter following consultation with individuals familiar with the healthcare and HIV/AIDS-related needs of incarcerated populations.

The cold of autumn has just started to become noticeable. But autumn has consolations, too, and the greatest of those is the light in the evenings. [The poll about the blog format has closed. Opinions were divided exactly down the middle, and I've had thoughtful feedback supporting both formats. In the meantime, I'll leave the blog with the old, dark background. Thanks to everyone who provided feedback or voted.] All content © 2016 Pete McGregor 4 comments: Autumn light on drying seeds is special. Not the same as early spring on winter rotted stuff. Everything feels so dusty and muddy here, even as the green peeks through. In another month, I'll be basking in fresh sprouting things, but not now, not yet. Zhoen, that's so true. I hadn't thought of that, but now you point it out, it seems obvious. Maybe, too, in spring I'm distracted by all that optimism, all that promise, all that new growth, and I don't pay as much attention to the light. Gold against blue - one of my favourite combinations. Avus, I agree — those colours can look spectacular together.

Unfortunately, this was the only good thing about this episode. And it wasn’t even in the show, it was in the ED… Ok, ok.. It wasn’t THAT bad. There were some bad parts, and some good, but sadly the bad parts are horrible to the point they make the good parts bad; Cause that totally makes sense. First of all, I was completely lost in the beginning. I read some stuff before watching this to get a little idea on what the story was about, and it seemed interesting so I gave it a shot. I can’t say I definitely regret it, but I could have gone without watching it. The beginning practically starts off with this blue-haired girl doing Parkour all over the place, running from this chick with a pistol that probably weighs more than her (It really looks awkward in her hand). All of a sudden she gets shot, falls, and wakes up. Huh? I know that’s what I said. Anyways, this little zombie tiger plushie named Harikiri hooks her up with very little 411 on why he went from a teenage male, into a busty, gorgeous chick. If I woke up as a female one day with a little plushie telling me why I’m a female… I’d have this expression as well- They could have put a little more effort into telling ME and the people actually watching the show what the hell just happened. Would had helped greatly. Moving on… This girl and her freaking innuendos. Boy were they annoying! She did like 3 in a row and it was getting on my nerves. I like her better when she’s like this – I don’t want to spoil the whole episode, but apparently people with blue and red bracelets turn into hotter, weapon-weilding girls (Regardless of their real gender, sucks for you Natsuru!). So.. that explains the transition between characters in the pics, they are indeed the same person. This wasn’t how the entire episode was, don’t worry. There were some good parts. Including the occasional cut scene to the black bunny plushie insulting Akane, the cliffhanger ending (That’s making me want to watch the second episode), and of course, the wonderful Natsuru (as a female, dur) in a maid outfit during the ED. I love maids. I don’t love this anime… but I do love this anime when it has maids. So I’ll stick around to see if it has more maids. To sum it up, only two things I enjoyed in this episode were Akane and Natsuru (F) as a maid. If you like gender bending anime that has sometimes cheesy, sometimes funny humor, and a kick ass red-head with a gun. Watch it… If not, watch To aru kagaku no railgun instead this Fall. I could just tell what kind of anime this was by watching the opening with a description. This made me lul. xD

W. T. Stace, (born Nov. 17, 1886, London, Eng.—died Aug. 2, 1967, Laguna Beach, Calif., U.S.), English-born philosopher who sought to reconcile naturalism with religious experience. His utilitarian theories, though empiricist in nature, acknowledged the necessity of incorporating mystical and spiritual interpretations. Educated at Bath College and Fettes College, Edinburgh, and at Trinity College, Dublin, Stace held positions of magistrate and judge in the British civil service in Ceylon (1910–32), where he studied Hinduism and Buddhism before teaching philosophy at Princeton University (1932–55) in the United States. Influenced by the German philosopher G.W.F. Hegel, he published many works exploring commonalities of human thought as related to religious empiricism. His key books include The Philosophy of Hegel (1924), The Theory of Knowledge and Existence (1932), The Concept of Morals (1937), Time and Eternity (1952), and Mysticism and Philosophy (1960).

Disk Space in Website Hosting All of our website hosting plans were created with the concept that limited disk space cannot be a thing that can limit the development of your websites. Which is why we've applied an approach which is not the same as the one that most hosting companies take - instead of just creating a number of accounts using a singlle server and eventually not having enough storage space, we work with a cloud hosting platform in which the storage is taken care of by a whole cluster of servers. Thus, we're able to connect more machines whenever they are necessary or more HDDs, to be able to offer more disk space for the files of our users. Different clusters take care of your email messages and your databases, so not only are you able to develop your web sites without having to worry about storage space, but also all of the servers will function faster and better because every single service has its own space for storage and a single server doesn't handle various types of files. Disk Space in Semi-dedicated Hosting Owing to the fact that all of our semi-dedicated server packages are pretty powerful, we've made the decision not to limit the disk space feature when we have developed them. Our idea is that when you buy a powerful package, it's likely that you have a good amount of web site content, therefore each and every semi-dedicated server plan offers you unrestricted disk storage, which will enable you to direct your attention to enhancing your sites without be concerned whether you'll suit some allowance. Your hosting account will be created on a cloud web hosting platform in which the databases, files and emails have their individual clusters of servers, thus not only will the machines perform far better for the reason that just one type of system processes will work on them, but also you will not ever have to worry for the hard disk space as we're able to install as many servers or hard disk drives to each and every cluster as needed. Disk Space in VPS Hosting With all our Linux VPS hosting, we provide you with sufficient disk storage for all of your content that matches the rest of the server features, so a better plan comes with a greater quota. You'll be able to use the space as you can see fit, as there are no particular allocations for the site files, databases or emails - all of them share the overall hard disk space of the server. However, if you prefer to have some restrictions, you're able to purchase your VPS plan with cPanel or DirectAdmin as the hosting Control Panel, and you can create web hosting accounts with a fixed amount of hard disk space for each domain name that you host on the server. In case you require more storage at some point, you're able to easily upgrade your package with a couple of clicks and the additional features will be included with your current account, so you won't be expected to move anything and your web sites will continue to be up and running. Disk Space in Dedicated Web Hosting The minimum HDD storage which you can get using our dedicated servers is 500 gigabytes. You will have two hard disk drives, 250 gigabytes each, and it will be up to you how you'll share out this storage. You can easily have the hard disks in RAID, so that your info is always safe as one of the drives will be a real-time mirror of the other one, or maybe you'll be able to make them work on their own, in order to use the full storing potential that'll be at your disposal. The storage space of all our dedicated web hosting is enough for everything - huge online shops, data depository portal, personal archive backup, and a lot more. We'll never keep back your websites with regard to the space they use. Once that they begin increasing, we supply you with the chance to add extra HDDs to your present server as required. If you get the server with cPanel or DirectAdmin for the hosting Control Panel, you will also be able to create a separate account for each and every hosted domain name and set some disk storage space allowance for it. Using Hepsia all of your domains will be hosted in one place and they will share the entire server space.

Jack Wilshere will play for an hour in his first appearance for Arsenal in over 14 months when he takes to the pitch for the club’s under-21 side against West Brom. Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has confirmed that the playmaker will start Monday’s match. ‘Jack will play on Monday night for the [Under-21s], he will play an hour. We have to be patient,’ he said. Wenger also urged England to let the youngster continue his recovery rather than calling him up for the clashes against San Marino and Poland in mid-October. Wilshere’s last appearance for the Gunners came in a pre-season friendly with the New York Red Bulls in August 2011, where he picked up an ankle problem that initially ruled him out for three weeks. However, the 20-year-old has since needed two sets of ankle and then knee surgery, and only returned to full training last week, having faced over a year out with his injury hell. Wilshere is making up for lost time though, and has impressed the Arsenal coaching staff during full contact training, and a plan has now been drawn up for his return to the pitch. The England international has been provisionally pencilled in to feature for the Gunners in Monday’s U21 league clash with West Brom, although he must pass a series of fitness examinations over the weekend before he is allowed to feature. If Wilshere fails, the early October fixture with Reading is more likely, while a training ground match against the Under-18 team and possible behind-closed-doors fixtures have been talked about in the mean time. Arsene Wenger is being kept abreast of the situation, and has told Wilshere he should be patient despite his eagerness to return as soon as possible. It is understood Wilshere had asked to be considered for a place on the bench in last night’s Capital One Cup clash with Coventry City at the Emirates, but the request was turned down.

A new state report shows the cutoff of the thousands of unemployed workers whose benefits ran out. Federal aide expired at the end of 2013, and most received their last checks earlier this month. The Emergency Unemployment Compensation program covered extra weeks of benefits for the long-term unemployed. But, it’s over, and more than a million people nationwide are now out of benefits. The Oregon Employment Department reports that during the last week of the program about 20,000 federally funded checks were sent out. Then the following week, it issued fewer than 600 of the long-term unemployment checks. Tom Fuller is with the Oregon Employment Department. “It’s a large drop,” says Fuller. “We’ve had a couple of these where a large number of people will drop off. But this is quite a drop off in terms of the sheer number of people not collecting benefits.” Fuller says some of the thousands of people whose federal benefits ran out were able to go back on to the state’s unemployment insurance trust fund.

Treating hair loss after age 75 Hair loss after 75. Form someone to have full hair in the 50s and 60s and then to develop hair loss in the 70s is not common. However, hair loss is emotional and devastating at any age. Treating hair loss in individuals over 75 can be challenging because multiple diagnoses are often present (rather than a single diagnosis). I advise patients to make sure their physician has enough time set aside to do the necessary 'detective work' to give answers about your diagnosis and then time to provide treatment solutions. Common causes of hair loss above 75 include: - hair loss from age related changes to the follicle (senescent alopecia) - hair loss from multiple medications, hair loss from surgeries (including those with general anesthetics), hair loss from dietary issues - scarring alopecias (lichen planopilaris, frontal fibrosing alopecia) - hair loss from androgenetic alopecia that developed in the 30s or 40s and has progressed - chronic shedding problems (chronic telogen effluvium) In order to improve the hair, each of these issues needs to be addressed. The experience of the physician is important because individuals over 75 may be more sensitive to mediations used to treat hair loss problems. Lower doses and more frequent monitoring may be needed. Some medications can't be used if there are coexistent medical problems. For example, minoxidil, a common hair loss treatment for female or age related hair loss, can't be used in individuals with heart problems or issues with blood pressure. For scarring alopecias, lower doses of medications also need to be used (i.e hydroxychloroquine). Knowing what treatment to prescribe and the proper dosing comes with experience. Dr. Jeff Donovan is a Canadian and US board certified dermatologist specializing exclusively in hair loss. To schedule a consultation, please call the Whistler office at 604.283.1887

ST. LOUIS – Dozens of residents turned out Monday night for an ‘Evening with Kim Gardner’ at the Tower Grove Baptist Church in south St. Louis City hosted by the Shaw Neighborhood Ownership Model-St. Louis (STL NOM) along with Benton Park West, Tower Grove East, Princeton Heights and Tower Grove Heights Safety Committee. Many people wanted to know what is being done to reduce crime in their neighborhoods and bridge their communities together. Some people asked what Gardner is doing about getting a handle on the crime, including carjackings which residents say continue to be on the rise. Gardner answered by saying that many of those carjacking cases are being committed by juveniles but added that her office has also collaborated with the organization, SANKOFA Unity Center, which through its diversion program works with at-risk youth and juveniles who are involved with committing these types of crimes or offenses. Gardner while speaking to the crowd acknowledged that crime is a public health crisis but to change that, it will require working with police to be strategic and encouraging residents to have conversations with police chief, John Hayden. “The people elected me and the people have to hold me accountable”, Gardner said, “and I’m gonna do my job and I’m gonna hold accountable the criminal justice reforms that we’re pushing for that makes us safe.” “One thing we have noticed is that there is a lot of speculation in the neighborhood about crime like when something happens. Where did it come from? Where did it end up? And what happened,” said David Aubrey who lives in the Shaw Neighborhood. “So our goal with meeting with Kim is to help with getting more factual information for our neighbors.” “There is always a discussion about the exclusion list with the police,” said Dan Powell with STL NOM, “and I want to know, what would happen if one of those officers arrested someone for a serious crime in our neighborhood? Would that criminal or suspect get away with it?”

Seeking new opportunities The company is already supplying its smoked Orkney cheese to distributors in the US and has just secured a contract with UK supermarket chain, Morrisons. Callum MacInnes, who established The Island Smokery in 2005 and developed the company with his wife, Fiona, said the company is always looking for opportunities in terms of new markets. He said the Burj order came after Scottish foods distributor Braehead Foods took a sample of Orkney Butter to a food and drink expo event in Dubai. MacInnes said there is a market in the region the company will look to explore with other products from its range. Fiona MacInnes added The Island Smokery was in talks with companies in Austria and Singapore to supply its range of smoked Orkney cheeses. At.mosphere is at 1483ft (452m).
