Prevost introduced its Webinar program, Prevost Connection, a continuing series of on-line presentations and discussions for motorcoach operators, drivers and maintenance personnel for customers.
The program will educate customers about important topics regarding new and existing Prevost vehicles, vehicle maintenance and customer service programs and will allow for discussion between Prevost product and service experts and customers.
The first Prevost Connection Webinar was held on August 26 and featured Volvo's D13 2010 SCR Solution. The session was presented by Prevost Service Training Manager Robert Hitt.
Topics for upcoming sessions will include Prevost Vehicle Winter Preparation, Prevost Tire Pressure Monitoring System and Fire Suppression System Maintenance & Diagnostic, and the Volvo I-Shift Transmission.
During Webinar registration, attendees can submit questions for the presenter to address during the session and can offer suggestions for specific areas of concentration. During the Webinar, attendees view the presentation by connecting to the Webinar through a simple internet link and listen to the presentation by calling in to a toll free number. Attendees can ask questions throughout the presentation and discuss points of interest with the subject expert. Following the Webinar, attendees are invited to offer suggestions and topics of interest for future Webinars.
Prevost has set a schedule for the fall, which can be accessed directly at prevostevents.webex.com, where attendees can register for upcoming events or view recordings of past events.
Of the 20 people injured, none were considered serious and 13 were transported by New York City EMS to hospitals.
Riders using a desktop computer, smart phone device or traditional telephone can schedule their pick-up and desired drop-off locations: reducing their wait time, arriving at their destination faster, and increasing the overall rider experience.
The advanced Driver Assist System, utilizing a licensed GPS technology developed by the University of Minnesota, provides feedback to the driver regarding lane position – via graphic driver alert displays, virtual mirror, vibrating seat and actuated steering.
In an overall business review, it was determined this division no longer fit in ABC's overall growth strategy. The company will continue to provide parts and warranty support for Ameritrans products.
Planners estimate the new, 11-mile Tysons Corner to Alexandria bus system would attract about 8,600 new transit riders per day.

Seymour trainer and jockey win at Merton races
It may have been a victory 50 years in the making, but Seymour trainer Ray Plant was finally able to get his hands on the Merton Cup at Merton last Sunday.TIM WOOD January 9, 2013 4:00am
''I came here about 50 years ago and ran a horse in the cup,'' he said.
''It was a two horse field .
Half a century later his four-year-old mare Safa Park Girl recorded a comfortable four-and-a-half length win in warm conditions.
The trainer was honest in his assessment after the race of the mare he had obtained earlier this year from a NSW stable.
''She goes around all right,'' he said.
''She's just an ordinary horse, but she really plugs away.''
After winning at Yea last month, the veteran trainer knew he had the mare in good shape going into the cup.
''I felt very confident before the race,'' he said.
For his young jockey Reece Goodwin, the journey to a Merton Cup victory has been a little shorter.
In just his first season of riding, and his very first ride at Merton, the fifteen-year-old was able to ride Safa Park Girl to an easy win.
In a ride that belied his inexperience, Reece allowed the mare to settle midfield before making a race winning move at the 600
''I had a few tips from the experienced jockeys and they said to get rolling around the side of the track,'' Goodwin said after the race.
''They said if you're in front on the corner here, you're a good chance.
''As soon as I got around them today I thought she was going to be really hard to run down.''
Plant was full of praise for his young jockey.
''He's done a mighty job.
''He rides her in all her track work and he wins on her, which is really good.''
The Merton Racing Club (the second oldest club still racing) presented Plant with a trophy and rug minutes after the win.
Plant's colourful acceptance speech included praise for the Merton club, his young jockey and finished with a friendly ''bake'' for the local book makers who had sent his mare out as an odds-on favourite; Plant felt they could have been a bit more generous.
Plant is realistic about the mare's chances going forward.
''She won't be going to Flemington,'' he said.
While pleased with her cup win, he feels she is best suited running in picnic races.
''I don't think she's good enough to make it at the next level, so I think we'll stick with the picnics.''

Cats and Toxoplasmosis

When I was 7 mos. pg with my first LO, I rescued and fostered 15 kittens in addition to taking care of my own 3 cats. DH did most of the litter scooping, but with that many kittens, there was a need for me to scoop as well. I talked to my OB and was tested for immunity to toxo. My tests showed I had been exposed in the past and was therefore immune. I still had DH do most of the scooping, but I did my share too. I just made sure to wash my hands very thoroughly and also covered my nose with my shirt while scooping.
MOST people have already been exposed to toxo. But, of course, you cannot assume anything. Talk to your OB and have them test you.
DD(13) DD(11) DS(5 - ASD) DD(2) DD in Heaven since age 4 mos (T21, AVSD) and #6 DS (VSD) coming in August 2016!
If you don't have someone else to scoop, just wear gloves and even a facemask if you want to be overly cautious. The chances of getting toxo from a cat are rare especially if he stays indoors now.
I have DH scoop the litter. But he works crazy hourd and sometimes isn't home for days. Obviously, I'm not going to leave the litter box full for that long (plus, the smell makes me nauseated!) The one time I've had to do it, I wore disposable gloves, made sure nothing touched my skin anywhere, pulled the gloves off properly (so that the outside never touched me), and washed my hands immediately with soap and hot water. I've probably been exposed to toxo like a PP but I've never been tested so I don't want to risk it.

Your vet can also run a test on the cat to see if he is a carrier. But like others have said, if you have to do the cat box yourself, just take precautions.
Paula (32) & Tim (31) est. 3/13/04
Missing Eliana 6/23/12 (at 21w6d, placental abruption) & Micah 2/15/13 (at 8w5d, partial molar)
Cats can become carriers if they eat raw meat (like catching an infected mouse) and are only carriers for a short period of time. If you have an indoor cat that only eats commercial cat food the chances of the cat having toxo are pretty much zero. On top of that you can only catch toxo from a cat by fecal oral contact.
Since toxoplasmosis is so serious is why I'm still cautious. Having DH take on box duties just puts my mind at ease even more. If I thought my fuzzy family was any risk to my LO I would find a foster home for them.
If you do decide to give up kitty, explore all your options. If he is still little he might still be able to be adopted from a shelter but most adult cats aren't. A family member or an animal rescue might be willing to foster the kitty and return him later.
Facts about Toxo:
1. Having had cats in the past does not mean your 'immune' from it now. A study on vets showed that they had no higher risk of being immune to Toxo (despite handling cats their whole working life) than the general population that had NEVER owned cats. Only a blood test can tell your immunity.
2. You can only catch it from your cat through their poo. Not from patting or cuddling them.
3. The Toxo takes 24 hours to sporulate in the feces and become infectious to humans. So clean the whole tray TOTALLY once daily. Do NOT just scoop as it will leave remnants of poo that could be infectious. Dispose of all the litter in a sealed plastic bag in the trash.
4. Your cat can only catch it from eating rats/mice/birds etc and raw meats. So keep them indoors on commercial cat food.
5. You are MUCH more likely to catch Toxo from eating raw meats or poor hygiene or gardening than from your cat.
6. A kitten has a higher chance of shedding Toxo in their poo. So be extra cautious with their poo.
7. The odds are on your side - the rate of Toxo affecting babies in the USA is very low.
Hope this helps.

Last week I went to a reunion chess match of people I was at secondary school with. We had a great time, playing chess, chatting and watching a tournament (see http://blog.chess.com/ArnesonStidgeley/bournemouth-school-old-boys---2012 if you're having a slow afternoon).
There were ten of us - all born in the 1960s. What struck me was that only three of us had married and only two of those unions had produced children (and no children outside those).
What does that show - if anything?
A sample of 10 people from the same school?
It shows you need more data
it doesnt show anything :)
statistics doesnt apply in every corner of life. or you will imply that if a butterfly move its wings a tornado will appear somewhere else :)
It shows you need more data
Hello, Waffle and ionutg
Here's where we need the stats nerds: in any given sample of ten men born in the 60s, what is the number of child-bearing unions (or marriages) that will result? I would have thought that the mean would be around five, with 95% confidence limits of one to nine. Two - as in this sample - seems low.
Our school was a 'state grammar' school - ie, tax-payer funded and entrance based on results of an entrance exam taken at the age of 11. Students were therefore academically able.
Well, yeah that's reasonable I guess, but there's sure to be many groups of 10 who have 0 marriages. Sure if it's something like 6 standard deviations out there, it's unlikely, but how many groups of 10 are there from 1960's schools? Millions I'd guess. So 2 marriages doesn't seem extraordinary... maybe if you'd all been married 4 times each heh.
No matter the skill of the statistician, your calculations can't be better than your data, and I think we'd all agree a sample of 10 is pretty small :)
The minimum sample size in statistics is 30.
It all depends on what the general probability of marriage in general is. "The internet" may claim 70% or 90% on average. The table below shows the distribution (what percentage of the time will a random group of 10 people have so many marriages) based on simple combinatorics for various underlying probabilities (50% change of getting married means look at the "0.5" column. In any case, your outcome appears fairly unlikely. For the nerds, this is just a tabulation of p^k*(1-p)^(10-k)*(10 choose k).

16 of 18 people found the following review helpful
Fascinating, brutal, honest and sad,
This review is from: Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? (Hardcover)
This autobiographical work covers Jeanette Winterson's childhood up to the age of 16 (when she left home), and then skips to a few years ago when she reconnects with her birth mother. Winterson was adopted by parents who belonged to a small Pentecostalist sect with very strict rules about how life should be lived. Her mother, who believed that books were effectively evil, but read them herself, appears as a woman trapped by her own personality failings and doomed to lead an unhappy life, a life she wants to ensure Jeanette shares. A rebel, Jeanette Winterson suffers frequent beatings and psychological cruelty and finally gets kicked out of home when her lesbianism is confirmed. The author describes her early life with beautiful clarity - it was brutal and yet it helped her to become an author. She hates her mother (and to a degree her father) but cannot help but be influenced by her and, to an extent, sympathises with her. However, it is also clear that she has been unable to escape her either, and Winterson's lack of ability to conduct lasting personal relationships is partially laid at her mother's door. The latter part of the book looks at Winterson deciding to meet her birth mother, including the sickening fear involved in doing so, and learning that she was not the evil woman her mother had portrayed her as being. However, we also learn that despite the warmth of her rediscovered birth mother and "real" family, Winterson cannot engage with them to any depth, although the relationships are a work in progress. In summary, I found this to be a gripping story of the author's severely disfunctional upbringing, an upbringing which spurred her on to succeed as an author but which nevertheless left her emotionally damaged, something that even her fierce intelligence and rationality has been unable to fully make better.

Comment sought on Natimuk flood mitigationWednesday November 7, 2012 - 10:40 EDT
Authorities in the Wimmera are urging Natimuk residents to provide feedback on possible flood mitigation works.
The Wimmera Catchment Management Authority will hold a public meeting tonight as part of a year-long flood study.
It has recommended either a levee bank be built or drainage improvements be carried out.
The authority's chief executive, David Brennan, says it has received strong support from the community on the proposed works so far.
"Originally we presented seven different type of mitigation options and it's been narrowed down to the two main ones and these two ... basically prevent the flooding of 70 per cent of houses that experience flooding during January 2011, so that's a pretty good outcome," he said.
Mr Brennan says it is important for residents to provide their input into the plans.
"At the end of the day the community has to make the decision whether they want the flood mitigation structures and levees done to the creek because it will change the aesthetic value of the town and give it a different feel," he said.
"What we what to do is to make sure the community is very comfortable with the recommendation."

The first 100 pp, mostly by Provan, address methodology. In it, he makes a compelling case for the value of testimony. He points out the inconsistency of modern historians who wish to give greater credibility to extra-biblical texts and archaeology, while exercising maximal skepticism towards the biblical accounts. His arguments are clear and well-reasoned.
The next 200 pp are a history of Old Testament Israel. The authors leave open the question of the date of the exodus. A discussion on the archaeology of the conquest occupies 20 pp.
There are no maps, charts, or images; and only 6 tables. The type size is about 9 point, allowing the authors to pack a lot of material between the covers of the book. The pages have decent margins for the reader who likes to make notes. There are 83 pp of notes, along with a Scripture index, Scholars Cited index, and an Index of Select Topics.
If for no other reason, purchase this book for its discussion on methodology.
As to why this book is leaps and bounds better than most of your popular apologetic works, here are a few differentiating factors:
A. Philosophy of historigraphical reconstruction. This is perhaps the most unique feature of the book. Before even diving into the various evidences being considered for a reconstruction of the history of Israel, the authors spend roughly 100 pages in dealing with the philosophical underpinnings of historiography. I found this section IMMENSELY enlightening and the book is worth the price for this exposition alone. On what grounds do we accept or reject historical testimony? Does the presence of ideology in a text imply that historical details have been interpolated? What can archaeological evidence tell us about the past? What are the limitations of science in reconstructing history? These and more questions are dealt with in "History of Israel". Rather than merely beginning with a given set of assumptions, the authors dissect the assumptions of themselves and their counterparts in Israeli historical reconstruction.
B. Expertise in the field of historiography. Unlike the many Josh McDowells and Lee Strobels, the authors of this book are professionals in this field of study and it shows in their knowledge of the material at hand, as well as their treatment of the material.
C. Objectivity in a reconstruction of Israel's past. What I loved about this book, especially in comparison to other books on the trustworthiness of the Old Testament texts, was the cool-headed, objective handling of the evidence. The word "prove" is rarely, if ever used.Read more ›
This history is one that is selective, on purpose. You do not get a great sense of how Israel interacted in a society with each other, as different classes and occupations.
But this book very much fills a void in Biblical Historical Studies, and makes people aware of all the issues that go into scholars' work on the Bible. Similar to Dever, who has a comment of the back cover of the book, this book gives both the Biblical author and editors, and modern day Bible historian, credibility to be both confessional and critical.
It doesn't shy away from the harder supposed discrepancies many find in the Bible, and instead of stooping to a lazier approach of simple harmonization, engages the text and other extra-biblical sources, to show that the Biblical narratives in no way contradict other sources, and that by reading the text carefully, one can make sense of what is going on.
This kind of book has been a long time in coming. It is most excellent!
The next two hundred pages discuss the history of Israel with this positive-testimony model. They do not paint as comprehensive a history as some might like (along the lines of Bright). Instead they focus on the problem areas rasied by the text.
This is a terrific book and it is taking a very important place in my library.

It was the ninth Grade 1 victory for Wise Dan, now 7. The gelding has
won a Grade 1 race in each of the past four years and increased his
overall record to 28-20-2-0. In notching his 16th graded stakes win, Wise Dan added $180,000 to his bankroll to increase his earnings to $6,473,610.
Wise Dan also joins Kip Deville (2007-2008) as the only repeat winner of the race.

The controversy grows with every sale of the bestselling novel. Throughout the contemporary fictional storyline of The Da Vinci Code, author Dan Brown skillfully weaves "historical" assertions intended to shake the very foundations of Christianity:
• Was Jesus merely human and not divine?
• Did Jesus and Mary Magdalene marry and have children?
• Is there a Holy Grail? If so, what is it and where can it be found?
Cracking Da Vinci's Code is the long-awaited answer to these and other questions. Authors James L. Garlow and Peter Jones present compelling evidence that Brown's assertions are not only historically inaccurate, but may also contain a hidden agenda.

Before buying this book you should realize what it is and who it is written by. It seems illogical to buy the book and expect something other than what it is. James Garlow is a pastor and therefore you can expect it to have a conservative christian bias. You may not be able to read an about the author, but based on what other people bought who also bought this book make the connection that this is a book based on christian values and beliefs.
when i picked up this book as a reference for my freshman term elective class, i hoped i was picking up the most un-biased book i could find. i was sorely nistaken. Cracking Da Vinci's Code was filled with the rantings of stubborn, close minded christian who could not seem to realize that The Da Vinci Code is a work of FICTION. i repeat, FICTION! sure it has some conspiracy in it, but whats a book without entertainment? these two cry babies need to shut their mouths, and open their eyes to the world, which just happens to be a lot less christian than it used to be.
A little imperfect, this book really helps those who are humble enough to say yes in responding the question 'God, are you still here?' This book will help those in need of God's silent presence. This book will help readers in many parts of the world where the Highest Illogical Force still rules. In fact, those who need this book (for whom this book is written) are billions more than those who claim they don't need it. Readers who choose not to smartly consider the positive role of the Highest Illogical Force always have other books to read. This book is not written for them. The decision to read this book and to write their review here itself is their own mistake, not the authors'.
Recently reading Dan Brown's 'The Da Vinci Code' I was very interested in looking into what truly were the 'facts' about the Holy Grail, Jesus, etc etc. Luckily I found this book, and I thought it would give me some insight about what Brown presented in his book. Instead, all I received was a Christian, finger-pointing pamphlet about all the wrong things Brown did. Granted, not everything in the book (even that which was based on fact) was 100% accurate, but it was distorted primarily to emphasize where the book was going. It was also used to keep the reader guessing and on the edge of his or her seat. Remember it is a work of FICTION, even if it is surrounded by facts. Also realize that this book is interlaced with fact, and wrapped by fiction. Fiction mixed with fact mixed with fiction. My point: this is meant for entertainment. The worst was when Garlow and Jones are trying to convince you that Brown has written this book in order to brainwash the masses. This book is an insult to people reading who are trying to gain more insight and knowledge about this historical set of events, and also to theologians who didn't have a say in what these two other guys were able to get published. By providing more questions than answers, Garlow and Jones failed miserably in producing facts and a plausable argument. This is a weakly supported, finger-pointing, cry-babying escapade by two Christians who feel that their way is the only righteous way, and everything else is just wrong. Tis true, 'blinding ignorance does mislead us....'
I rarely regret buying a book online but wouldn't have carried this one out of a bookstore. Had I known it was simply a fundamentalist apology intertwined with a sophmoric fable, I would have passed. I actually did make it halfway through, though, before remembering it's really okay not to finish a book you're not enjoying.
Any who doubts this book's intention, thinks they will be 'bored' by it, seems to think 'The Di Vinci Code' is based on fact, or desires to know the truth behind the ill-fated 'facts' Dan Brown's book was based on should definitely buy this 'must have'. 'The Di Vinci Code' is a complete work of fiction based on adventure, conspiracy, and misconceptions. To think it otherwise is in error and regardless of personal beliefs one may hold 'Cracking the Di Vinci Code' is the prime source of truth in regards to this issue. Offhand, it should be noted the statement of, 'we won't even go into if Jesus and Mary were married,' is not the status-quo of the book and was said as the notion is ridiculous to begin with.
This book was a horrible read. I can not imagine a worse way to try and 'crack' the illuminating historical ideas written in this book. The fact of The Da Vinci Code's obvious popularity and insight has made christians desperatly try and blow off everything written. Dan was not the first to give this idea and he has a far better understanding and support then the bible ever had. I despise this book. It's not worth your time.
While not a perfect book, it remains engaging and informative. It may seem lightweight to hard core researchers, but for the average student, this provides an excellent platform for judging many of the ideas in the Da Vinci Code. There are plenty of end notes and research references to continue your study in-depth, without becoming cumbersome. I thoroughly enjoyed the fictional account woven through the commentary for two reasons. First, it nicely paralled Brown's story of a young woman's journey. Second, it accurately reflects an average modern person's development of attitudes, beliefs and ideas when exposed to speculative fiction like Brown's Da Vinci Code. And while the Da Vinci Code is written as 'fiction', many people are responding as though it is based on fact, rather than fictional alternative history. Readers know better when they read a book with the premise of 'what if JFK had lived' or 'what if Hitler had won', yet this book has had a huge impact on people's perceptions of history and religion. Although written from a Christian perspective, Christian and Non-Christian alike will benefit from this book.
The authors do nothing to enlighten readers to the theories Brown presents. With extremey lame writing and a pathetic fictional character, Carrie, the authors use such words as 'we won't even go into if Jesus and Mary were married'....so much for decoding! Please don't waste your money, youi can have my copy!
This book offers no new insight of what the Da Vinci code is about. The authors ommit many question because they are 'too complicated to explain in these pages'. It also keeps refering to the bible as the main source of their research.
This book is absolutely dreadful. After reading the Da Vinci Code I was hoping to research more and find the actual truth behind Brown's Book. I thought The Da Vinci Code was amazing! Which is completely opposite from Garlow and Jone's Book. Instead of producing real fact, Cracking Da Vinci's Code just carried on how Brown was wrong in his statements, completely degrading and devaluing anything Brown said. I just wanted to throw it out. What a real disappointment.
No point in my eyes in writing this book on Dan Browns novel.His point and not much to it except to discredit most of Browns book.
A must read for anyone who has read Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code.
I had expected better from two well-credentialed authors, but this did not meet my expectations. This book feels written to win back Christians disillisioned by Dan Brown's book, The Da Vinci Code. Like many readers of Brown's book, I was curious about where the historical elements end and the fiction begins. This book didn't offer much insight.
These authors are so part of the male dominated--male as privledged--male as having rights --male as owning women environment, they can't even make statements that don't assume we all believe as they do as they have been taught to. I (a woman) have debated Catholic clergy about why they don't tell 'the masses' i.e. us all they know and study in seminary. We need to be kept ignorant because we can't handle it. That is what I was told by the head of the seminary at the Catholic University of America. I asked why the Christian wedding ceremony says 'man and wife' ie man and his property wife vs husband and wife ie. equal partners. His answer was that women belong to the men they marry. I asked the same question of another priest who refused to say 'I now pronounce you husband and wife' and would only say 'I now pronounce you man and wife'. The woman I was with found a different priest. You guys are stating things you say Dan Brown implies and he doesn't. You all are just running scared that your view of the world might open up a bit. I feel so very sorry for you. I will pray for you.

Effective Instruction Necessitates Preservation of 'Net Neutrality'
To the Editor:
Barely a week after Education Week reported school districts' well-founded concerns over a court ruling against net neutrality that favored Verizon and other telecoms (U.S. Court Ruling Raises K-12 Concerns About Internet Access, Jan. 29, 2014), I saw a headline on an Associated Press article proclaiming: "Tech Companies Commit $750 Million in Products and Services to Schools."
Sounds like some companies hope to buy off opposition.
Even if these technology companies agreed to provide free, high-speed Wi-Fi in perpetuity to every U.S. school, educators should be wary, because effective instruction requires Internet access at home, not just in school buildings.
So, who should be advocating for the preservation of net neutrality? Anyone using flipped or blended learning. Every home schooler. Every teacher who expects students to participate in classroom wikis, voice threads, or other online conversations. Teachers who assign (or would like to assign) work requiring Internet research. Media-literacy students who work on projects outside the classroom. Every school with a student-run news show that is shared with the community. Every school that sends laptops or tablets home with students with hopes that parents will work with their children. Every school that hopes to use Internet-based tools to improve communication with parents. Every classroom, team, club, or activity with a Web page that includes video or podcasts.
In other words, every school district in the country ought to be asking the Federal Communications Commission to do everything in its power to preserve net neutrality.
Free Wi-Fi for every school building would be wonderful, and technology companies should be thanked for stepping up when they provide it. But, as advocates like freepress.net have explained, it won't do much good if tech companies have the exclusive power to make the decisions about what is easily available.
Free Internet connection for schools is not a substitute for net neutrality.

Good 3.5 /5 from 26 reviews
Great stay for backpackers. Friendly, cheap and conveniently centred on boracay.
Basic room with a fantastic view. Staff is very helpful. Breakfast is delicious at a very affordable price.
I strongly believed that the room has been vacant for quite some times and the bedsheet has not been changed by then which I could see the dusts and dead mosquitoes clearly on the bed.
Its convenience to central market, d mall. Walking about 5minutes. Worth with the price. Just a bit quite at night time, its good for rest.
Great place to stay if you love kitesurfing, right on the windy beach in boracay, short walk to restraunts ect. room was clean and cleaned daily, the staff were very friendly and helpful…. rooms are pretty basic but you get what you pay for

Simply put, if you think you pay too much for shipping on an item, purchase a few pieces and get my combined shipping. To be blunt, if you don't like what I have to charge for shipping, I would prefer you purchased from someone else. Thank you. :-)
Thanks to a new policy, I am unable to give a multi-item shipping discount for purchases paid for seperately. I will only be to happy to give the discount if items are purchased and paid for by a single transaction. If you are unsure, purchase the items and request an invoice and wait for me to send it to you BEFORE paying for your items. You can thank for this. But "I" appreciate your business and purchases.

Product Description
Praise for "A Simple Act of Violence"
"Ellory is back with an amazing new novel. It's not only a mystery with enough plot twists to keep the most jaded fan of the genre guessing, it's also a high-speed car chase of a thriller . . . Ellory lures the reader into a Machiavellian tapestry of international proportions . . . Many writers who attempt to construct a novel with levels of geopolitical intrigue found here wind up producing a string of lame polemics or, even worse, a conspiracy-theory rant. It's a tribute to Ellory's mastery of his craft to note that he avoids these pitfalls completely. This is a superbly entertaining book and one that will endure in the reader's thoughts long after the last page turns. After several fine novels, it's high time Ellory takes his rightful place on crime fiction's A-list." -- "Booklist" Starred Review

Praise for "A Simple Act of Violence" "A police procedural thus shifts into a conspiracy thriller and historical expos? . . . There are powerful scenes and vivid images." --"Wall Street Journal"
"The backstory is ingeniously written as a first-person account of the relationship of the killer to his victims and relates how passions of the persons involved and their actions lead up to the present. The DC murder investigations, written in third person, provide a quick read and plenty of blood and gory scenes to satisfy the taste of the most bloodthirsty thriller fan. There is something for everyone in "A Simple Act of Violence" . . . This crime thriller will delight the palate of lovers of political intrigue in international venues, events that ring of historical truth, bringing the action closer to the realm of real life." --"New York Journal of Books"

So basically, you have Police Detective Robert Miller and his partner Al Roth, doing their best to find a serial killer known as The Ribbon Killer who badly beats his victims almost beyond recognition,ties a ribbon around their neck attached to which is a luggage tag like those put on the big toes of John Does in the USA and there's always a very strong smell of lavender on the victims. But the latest victim lacks the beatings so is this the same murderer or a copycat?
During the investigation into the death of the latest victim Catherine Sheridan, Miller has his first encounter with John Robey, a university leturer and man who appears to be without a past. While Robey becomes a prime suspect in the minds of others on the investigation team, Miller just doesn't feel that he's right for the murders. But is he?
Whilst tending to have me think I had the actual murdered sussed, on more than one occasion, it wasn't until very close to the end that I had my confusion sorted. Then as I closed the book, I realized that all the pointers to who was responsible for the murders had been right there in black and white pretty much most of the way through but just kept throwing red herrings, (fairly convincing ones I might add), at me. Shan't tell you who 'done it' because I wouldn't want to spoil things for you but if you want a really good read, this is it!
Tony Laforce, Hackney
We have two stories in this novel. First is the story set in the vividly portrayed Washington D.C, where the Ribbon Killer has burst onto the pages of a myriad of D.C broadsheets following four gruesome murders. Detective Robert Miller is charged with the responsibility of making sense of these killings, particularly that of victim number four; Catherine Sheridan. As he delves deeper, things make less sense, become more complicated, and then he comes upon a very interesting character.
This character's back story is told separately but does not make the novel in any way disjointed. Like in past RJE novels, it is interwoven gracefully. The story of the indoctrination and deployment of this character in the CIA is in my opinion Ellory's best writing to date. The research that went into to this must have been immense. Solid facts are entwined with fiction so skilfully that you cannot see the seams or the joins. The descriptions of the questionable activities of this CIA, this "Sacred Monster" provide electrifying and terrifying revelations in equal measure.
We have here a novel with wonderful depth, great characterisation, and the fastest pace of all RJE's books thus far. If you loved A Quiet Vendetta for its sheer audacity of scope, or a Quiet Belief in Angels for its wonderful characterisation, then this is veritable feast. You see, this book exceeds both of them on both fronts.
An immense achievement, go and read it I think you will love it, it is certainly at the top of my favourite ever reads. RJ Ellory is here to stay.

"If you establish a democracy, you must in due time reap the fruits of a democracy.

A Problem With Over-Centralizing Production
Submitted by Michael Kleen on Fri, 2010-09-24 03:00
For many decades, the laws of the USA have put the small farmer at a great disadvantage over the large farmer. The result of this has been the elimination of small local farms and the dependence of large segments of the population on the production of large centralized farms. What's wrong with this? [a lot, as it turns out]

Manila Luzon Proves That Drag Queens Make Better Role Models Than Princesses
"Once I got up on the stage and I saw her singing and being herself, that cheered me [on] to just be myself, let me go, and dance and have fun."
1. In September, a mother wrote an essay on Huffington Post that she thought drag queens were better role models for her children than princesses.
"When it comes down to it, I respect drag queens," she wrote. "They are artists. They are able to conceptualize an idea and transform themselves — without the help of magic, I might add. They are risk takers. They are punk. But Disney princesses? They are a man-made franchise created to sell cheaply made shit to our daughters. They are a perpetuation of the stereotype of the weak, dumb woman who obediently waits for a man to come along and make her valuable. Between the two I'll always promote the big-wigged man crooning 'I'm Every Woman.' Werq."
2. So Fusion set up a play date with Manila Luzon from RuPaul's Drag Race and Joselyn, a 10-year-old girl.
3. They started by hanging out at the playground.
4. Joselyn was so excited!
5. Manila gave Joselyn some great advice:
6. Yep, seems like Manila's a pretty good role model.
7. And then, naturally, they went to a drag show.
8. Where they performed.
9. It was awesome.
10. Manila Luzon: Best Role Model Ever.
- Athletes probably won't break records at the Rio Olympics. Scientists say most top performers have reached the limits of human biology.

UK government must pay over £224m for e-borders failure
Raytheon gains from borders booboo bounty
THE UK GOVERNMENT has been told to hand over £224m to defence company Raytheon for the failed, controversial e-borders project.
The government has a tricky relationship with technology projects and more often than not they end as failures.
This time it has to pay £224m because it fired Raytheon during the delivery of an e-borders system. Raytheon said it is happy with the result.
In a statement Raytheon said that the court found that the work contract was cancelled unlawfully, and that therefore it deserves to be paid.
"The Tribunal awarded to Raytheon Systems Ltd [RSL] damages and other monetary relief of approximately £185m," it said.
"It also found that the Home Office had wrongfully retained the £50m it had drawn on RSL letters of credit in April 2011. The Tribunal reserved ruling on costs and on the quantification of interest payable to RSL."
When the Home Office was talking about the e-borders project, in 2012, it was loudly complaining about the fact that it was not ready.
"The e-borders programme which has resulted in the loss of millions of pounds of taxpayers' money highlights the need for procurement to be carried out correctly and to include clear goals for private sector companies," said Keith Vaz, MP in a statement at the time.
"It remains a huge disappointment that e-borders is not fully in place in time for the Olympics."
The e-borders project was launched in 2003.Today, the Home Office replied to the INQUIRER's request for comment with a lengthy statement that stands by its decision.
"The Government stands by the decision to end the e-Borders contract with Raytheon. The situation we inherited in 2010 was a mess. Key milestones had been missed and parts of the programme were running at least a year late. The contract, signed in 2007, had already cost the taxpayer £259.3 million and yet wasn't delivering," said Minister for Immigration and Security, James Brokenshire.
"We are considering further legal options in the light of the arbitration decision. What is clear though, is that all other alternatives available to the Home Office would have led to greater costs than the result of the Tribunal's decision." µ

Product Description
How did American Military leaders in the brutal POW camps of North Vietnam inspire their followers for six, seven, or eight years to remain committed to the mission, resist a cruel enemy, and return home with honor? What leadership principles engendered such extreme devotion, perseverance, and teamwork?
In this powerful and practical book, Lee Ellis, a former Air Force pilot, candidly talks about his five and a half years of captivity and the fourteen key leadership principles behind this amazing story. As a successful executive coach and corporate consultant, he helps leaders of Fortune 500 companies, healthcare executives, small business owners, and entrepreneurs utilize these same pressure-tested principles to increase their personal and organizational success.
In Leading with Honor: Leadership Lessons from the Hanoi Hilton, you will learn: courageous lessons from POW leaders facing torture in the crucible of captivity, how successful teams are applying these same lessons and principles, and how to implement these lessons using the Coaching sessions provided in each chapter.
In the book's Foreword, Senator John McCain states, ''In Leading with Honor, Lee draws from the POW experience, including some of his own personal story, to illustrate the crucial impact of leadership on the success of any organization. He highlights lessons and principles that can be applied to every leadership situation.''
This book is ideal for individual or group study as a personal development, coaching, human resource development, or executive training resource.

Publisher's Description
Author Bio
Early in his career, Lee served as an Air Force fighter pilot flying fifty-three combat missions over North Vietnam. In 1967, he was shot down and held as a POW for more than five years in Hanoi and surrounding camps. As a decorated war hero, he moved on to command a flying squadron and leadership development organizations before retiring as a colonel.
Lee has a BA in History and a MS in Counseling and Human Development. He has authored or co-authored four books on leadership and career development, and his latest book is entitled Leading with Honor: Leadership Lessons from the Hanoi Hilton.
Lee and his wife Mary reside in the Atlanta GA area and have four grown children and six grandchildren.
''In Leading with Honor, Lee uses gripping stories from the POW camps to engage the reader and teach invaluable principles of leadership. I highly recommend this book for developing leaders at all levels in any organization, military of civilian.'' - William R. Looney III, General USAF (Ret)
''In the crowded world of books on leadership, Lee Ellis's unique contribution, Leading with Honor, rises well above the standard fare on this topic. His book is so authentic in that he has personally experienced most of the lessons he promotes. In short, he's ''been there, done that'' in terms of ''knowing himself'' and ''knowing others.'' The book strongly provides keen insights on the subject and he persuasively integrates leadership with such vital values concepts such as conscience, trust, principles and honor -- topics too often lost today. This book far exceeds anything I've seen and it's story telling style woven into strong, practical wisdom makes it hard to put down. I enthusiastically commend Leading with Honor to leaders seeking to synchronize their personal styles with the challenges of managing diverse people and tasks.'' - Archie B. Carroll, Director, Nonprofit Management & Community Service Program and Professor of Management Emeritus, Terry College of Business, University of Georgia
"Successful leadership involves both fundamental principles and their practical application. In Leading With Honor, Lee Ellis identifies bedrock principles of leadership which, like tempered steel, were forged in the crucible of a North Vietnamese Prisoner of War camp. He then clearly and artfully applies them to contemporary leadership situations in an eminently practical and engaging manner. In short, there are thousands of leadership books and leadership 'experts,' but few can hope to approach the authenticity which Lee Ellis brings to Leading With Honor. Highly recommended for leaders of all ages and experience levels!" - Hon. John Scott Redd, Vice Admiral, U.S. Navy (Ret.), First Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Founding Commander of the U. S. Fifth Fleet

Researchers at AppRiver say the trend demonstrates how Blackhole is following the pattern of popular crimeware kit Zeus and SpyEye. Blackhole traditionally has been used to infect legitimate websites for drive-by infection purposes. "This attack is unique because Blackhole added an email vector to its format and is flooding the Internet with similar methods used by Zeus, SpyEye, and others, essentially moving it into prime time," said Fred Touchette, senior security analyst for AppRiver. The attackers also have set up their own malicious links to infect users who click on URLs in the emails.
Blackhole, which previously had been marketed as a high-end crimeware tool, costing $1,500 for a one-year license, in May was unleashed for free in some underground forums. That has propelled more use of the toolkit.
Touchette said he first noticed the trend with a Steve Jobs-themed email campaign earlier this month in the wake of Jobs' death. "This is the first that I have personally noticed that leads email recipients to Blackhole websites. Before that, people using the Blackhole Kit relied on techniques such as SEO poisoning to lead victims to their sites," he said.
The OfficeJet email campaign, like other Blackhole attacks, is trolling for victims' online banking credentials. It works a lot like Zeus and others, using browser vulnerabilities on victims' machines and creating a backdoor for downloading and installing the Trojans. AppRiver's Touchette said Blackhole appears to favor Java and Adobe bugs.
"This most recent campaign is still trickling in, but will soon stall as most of its domains have been picked up and blacklisted by security professionals. At its peak yesterday, we were seeing malicious emails related to this campaign coming in at a rate of around 36,000 per minute," he said. "Links within those emails pointed toward approximately 2,000 separate domains that were hosting malicious code."
The cybersecurity profession struggles to retain women (figures range from 10 to 20 percent). It's particularly worrisome for an industry with a rapidly growing number of vacant positions.
So why does the shortage of women continue to be worse in security than in other IT sectors? How can men in infosec be better allies for women; and how can women be better allies for one another? What is the industry doing to fix the problem -- what's working, and what isn't?
Is this really a problem at all? Are the low numbers simply an indication that women do not want to be in cybersecurity, and is it possible that more women will never want to be in cybersecurity? How many women would we need to see in the industry to declare success?
