Lima! You almost gave the guy heart attack!
As usual a great story......

So, I'm at the airport, getting ready to fly from PA to WI. I'm taking my carry gun with me because even though I can't carry it, if I got the chance I would like to blast off a few rounds in the back yard with my Dad.
I get to the check-in counter and say, "I would like to declare a firearm." (note: never say, "I've got a gun.")
The head of the guy standing behind the counter snaps up and he says, "You'd like to do what?"
"I'd like to declare a firearm."
He looks very lost for about five seconds and then says, "What kind of firearm?"
"A handgun."
"Where is it?" he asks, while taking one large step back.
"It's unloaded, in a hard-sided, locked case, in my suitcase."
He seems to let out a breath of relief and we proceed without incident.
He fills out the little firearms declaration form, I take it to the TSA, put it in the case with my Kimber, relock the case and off it goes, under the plan.
I had fun in Wisconsin, did a little shooting with my Dad, packed it back up and went back to the airport to come home to PA.
I approach the counter and say, "I'd like to declare a firearm."
This time I had a woman and she smiled sweetly while saying, "Okay."
She drops to her knees in front of the station she's behind and it's obvious that she's looking for something though I gathered she didn't know exactly what that something was. It was extremely busy so I tried to help out by saying, "It's a little orangish-yellow tag that says 'Unloaded Firearm(s).'"
She finds the afore mentioned tag and says, "Oh, thanks," while she looks it over front to back with confusion written all over her face.
She then proceeds to just hand me the form.
I say, "Oh, no, you need to fill it out with my flight number, the bag number and all of that stuff, then I sign it."
While I'm explaining this one of the other gals was walking by and overhears my explanation and taps the attendant on the shoulder, pointing to me and saying, "She probably does this a hundred times more than we do. It's a good thing too because I have no idea how those things are done."
When the attendant gets done filling out the information on the card she looks around, looks back at me and says, "Now what? Do I just put it on your bag or what?"
"Oh, no," I say, "I have to take it over to the TSA and put it in the case with the gun."
She smiles sweetly again and says, "Oh, okay." She hands me the tag and laughs. "You should be behind this counter," she says and tells me to have a good flight.
I guess they don't get many declared firearms, but it was still funny to lead her through the process.
I was also very relieved that there was absolutely no trouble on either flight. The gun went through without a single incident.

P.S. A note to those who want to fly with firearms.
When you take your baggage over to the TSA to be checked in, tell them, again, that you are declaring a firearm and show them your declaration slip that was just filled out. They will tell you that you need to put it in the case with the firearm, ask them where they would like you to do that. Usually they don't care where, but they appreciate that you are asking anyway. They will require you to be present as they put your bag through security JUST IN CASE they need to open the case and look at the gun (and believe me, you WANT to be present for that).
Your luggage goes through a little faster because they push it to the front of the line because they know you are waiting and that your luggage carries a special item. They also appreciate your being up front, courteous, and helpful.
On my flight home to PA the head TSA agent personally thanked me for being open, listening to instructions and patient as well as accommodating. As I said, they were very busy and they had to take a few extra steps because of my firearm, and it helps everyone involved if you are patient, courteous and as helpful to them as possible. It also paints us gun-lovers as helpful and accommodating people.

Nice results lima - as it should be.
I have to again mention a fun event last year - I flew Frontier and all was fine every time I booked, but as I stopped over in Denver I had to book in again with baggage for hop to Tulsa next day.
No prob's - Frontier folks very switched on but - this was the only time TSA guys took baggage thru their lil cave area!
Bonnie and I watched as the fella opened case ... peered at stuff - ignored gun totally (orange card was there of course) - but next thing, he picked out a 2/3 full bottle of Whiskey we had with us - and proceeded to ''wand'' it . Not sure if it was sniffing for drugs or what but he might have been bored - nothing else goin on

Nice to hear that is releatively easy to travel with a handgun. We are thinking of flying into Florida for vacation and I am really contemplating on wether or not to take my carry gun.
I just don't want to get to the airport and get hung up with a bunch of airport personnel that don't know what to do.
I think I will go to the airport first and have a talk with them. Just to be sure of the process.
Thanks for the story and the inside info on traveling with a gun.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft!

I brought mine with me to North Dakota and I flew with Northwest...I went to the counter and declared the firearm, she asked where it was, and told me to show her that it was unloaded...filled out the form, signed it and put it in my case and back into my suitcase...that was it, she tagged the case and set it behind her. Hope my flight back this Friday goes as smoothly as that.

By the way, Lima, what airline(s) have you flown with guns? Do you know any that have a policy of not allowing firearms in checked baggage?

Not to pre-empt an answer from lima but - wish I could remember - there is IIRC one particular airline that a year or so ago started a policy of no guns... of course they would not get business from many folks here!

Lima, I'm curious about something. You wrote that you flew to Wisconsin and I thought that there was no concealed carry in Wisconsin. So, how were you legal when disembarking at your location? As I understand it you wrote that you did not carry in Wisconsin but shot at your dad's farm. What I am asking is about the legality of transporting the weapon from the airport to a car, and then driving to the farm. That sounds like "concealed carry," no?
It sure would be in NYC and NJ, and probably in Illinois.
If the firearm is in a hard sided case normally it's legal to carry it. That was how I had to transport a firearm around the state of NJ, and I do it out of habit still.
I wouldn't want to try and do it in NJ without an NJ FID card though. And I wouldn't want to try it in NYC at all.
Just a few thoughts...
Firefighter / EMT - Always Ready. Ever Willing.
~Never do anything that you don't want to have to explain to the paramedics...~
Hopyard, firefighter is correct.
ALWAYS check the transportation, reciprocity and/or carry laws of the state you are landing in or passing through if you choose to travel with a firearm (even if it's just a layover).
As I recall there was a big stink about a man who landed in New Jersey with a firearm not long ago.
In Wisconsin, as long as the firearm is unloaded and in a locked, hard-sided case, and inaccessible to the occupants of the vehicle (i.e. in the trunk or out of reach) then you are fine for transporting the firearm.
When I landed and my Dad picked me up, I told him I had my gun with me (locked and unloaded in a hard-sided case in my suitcase) and that we needed to make sure my suitcase was put in the back of the truck. He understood and complied.
Also, I had no ammunition with me when I flew. My gun was unloaded from the time it was put in the case (as is required by the airline, not to mention the laws of the state I was going to be landing in).
My Dad and I stopped at a sporting goods store and bought ammunition on our way back to the farm. We then complied with Wisconsin state transportation laws by keeping the ammunition and weapon in separate locations in the vehicle.
Also, I have transported firearms through New York on my way up to Connecticut several times. IIRC their transportation laws are very similar to Wisconsin's. The firearm must be unloaded and locked in a hard-sided, lockable case and inaccessible to the occupants of the vehicle, ammo must be transported in a separate container, away from the firearm.

I've flown with firearms with two other airlines but for the life of me I can't remember which ones they were.
Every airline has a website and all of their policies are usually spelled out pretty clearly on such matters. If they are not, give them a call and ask for what is said in writing or in a fax or even an email so that you know it's policy and not just some individuals personal preference.
The best place to start is the TSA website.

Financial stress is one of the biggest concerns Americans focus on in their daily lives. At least 79% of working Americans reported serious concerns in their lives based around their finances, while the remaining 21% say they are confident planners about their current behavior and future prospects, according to a new study by The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America.
Matthew Bryan, assistant vice president at Guardian, says that they looked behaviors rather than demographics to ascertain emotional and financial confidence of Americans.

Roundup: Praise for a realistic look at parenting
Thanks to author Jessica Valenti for bringing up the discussion of "the disconnect between expectations of parenting as pure joy vs. the daily reality." Her book Why Have Kids? should be required reading in sex education classes (" 'Why Have Kids?' author on parenting's contradictions").
Critics of her book should ask residents in senior-living residences throughout America if they would have children if they had to do it all over again. The results would amaze everyone but those who know only too well that some of the happiest elderly couples are those who haven't had the stresses, disappointments or expenses associated with offspring.
More important, there should be no stigma attached to being childless, as not everyone wants children or even is qualified to become a parent. Many teachers likely wish there were requirements or tests to pass before one would be eligible to bring children into this world. How different our entire educational system would be.
Thanks again to Valenti for writing about such an explosive subject and to USA TODAY for printing the Q&A with the author.
Kathy Megyeri; Washington, D.C.
Letters to the editor
USA TODAY receives about 300 letters each day. Most arrive via e-mail, but we also receive submissions by postal mail and fax. We publish about 35 letters each week.
We often select comments that respond directly to USA TODAY articles or opinion pieces. Letters that are concise and make one or two good points have the best chance of being selected, as do letters that reflect the vibrant debate around the nation on a particular subject.
We aim to make the letters platform a place where readers, not just writers representing institutions or interest groups, have their say.
Adopt pets from shelters
Thank you for highlighting the importance of being financially prepared before adding a cat or a dog to the family ("Pet adoption can cost a lot more than you might think").
I encourage readers who are ready to care for an animal to take veterinarian Jay Levine's advice and adopt a healthy, happy mutt from their local shelter instead of paying for a purebred.
Even if they have "papers," purebreds are susceptible to painful, debilitating and costly genetic problems, including crippling hip dysplasia and other conditions. Some breeds, such as bulldogs and pugs, have a hard time even breathing normally because of their short, pushed-in noses.
Adopting a loving mixed-breed pup or kitty from an animal shelter not only saves a bundle of cash, it saves a life, too. And you can't put a price tag on that.
Lindsay Pollard-Post, senior writer, The PETA Foundation; Norfolk, Va.

Must be something in the water in Georgia, land of Honey Boo Boo and zombie apocalyptic plots. Now The Walking Dead actor Scott Wilson has been arrested on charges of drunk driving in Peachtree City near where the AMC zombie drama is filmed.
The Associated Press reported that Peachtree City police arrested Wilson, 70, early on Aug. 18, after someone called 911 to report a Chrysler PT Cruiser driving erratically.
According to the arrest report, Wilson told police he'd been drinking scotch and wine at a restaurant. Wilson was swaying, the report said, but here's the unusual only-an-actor angle: Instead of taking a field sobriety test like everyone else, he asked to do yoga poses instead. Apparently, that didn't cut it with the cops.
On The Walking Dead, Wilson plays farmer and recovering alcoholic Hershel Greene, who's one of the survivors after a zombie take-over of the USA.

Guy Takes Home $225,000 From Pwn2Own Hacking Competition
J Thoendell stashed this in Tech
Source: http://arstechnica.com/security/2015/03/...
The annual Pwn2Own hacking competition wrapped up its 2015 event in Vancouver with another banner year, paying $442,000 for 21 critical bugs in all four major browsers, as well as Windows, Adobe Flash, and Adobe Reader.
A teenaged hacker named Pinkie Pie breaks out of Chrome's security sandbox.
The crowning achievement came Thursday as contestant Jung Hoon Lee, aka lokihardt, demonstrated an exploit that felled both the stable and beta versions of Chrome, the Google-developed browser that's famously hard to compromise. His hack started with a buffer overflow race condition in Chrome. To allow that attack to break past anti-exploit mechanisms such as the sandbox and address space layout randomization, it also targeted an information leak and a race condition in two Windows kernel drivers, an impressive feat that allowed the exploit to achieve full System access. "With all of this, lokihardt managed to get the single biggest payout of the competition, not to mention the single biggest payout in Pwn2Own history: $75,000 USD for the Chrome bug, an extra $25,000 for the privilege escalation to SYSTEM, and another $10,000 from Google for hitting the beta version for a grand total of $110,000," Pwn2Own organizers wrote in a blog post published Thursday. "To put it another way, lokihardt earned roughly $916 a second for his two-minute demonstration."
Despite huge leaps in secure code, nothing is immune when hackers are motivated.
Stashed in: Hackers!, Software!, Web Browsers, Google FAIL
That guy seems incredibly smart to have found those exploits in such a short amount of time.

Ukrainian Best Potato Perogies-Varenyky in Brown Butter
Recipe by Olha7397
This is the best varenyky dough you'll ever make. It rolls easily, the perogies stay closed when pinched together and they cook up tenderly. I like to use old cheddar cheese.
Top Review by Queen Dana
These were great! I've made this a few times and the dough is easy to work with. I have rolled out the dough by hand and I've also tried running it through the flat plate in my pasta maker which works well but I had to add a little more flour to prevent the dough from sticking to the plate.

- 3 cups peeled and diced yukon gold potatoes
- 1⁄3 cup unsalted butter
- coarse salt
- fresh ground pepper
- 1 dash ground nutmeg
- 1 cup finely grated cheddar cheese (optional)
- 5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons fine salt
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup 2% low-fat milk
- 3⁄4 cup water
- 1⁄4 cup unsalted butter, more if necessary
- 1 cup finely diced onion
- coarse salt
- fresh ground pepper
Directions See How It's Made
- FOR THE FILLING, cook potatoes in boiling salted water until tender, and drain. If you have a ricer, rice potatoes and stir in butter while hot, otherwise mash with electric beaters. Season to taste and add nutmeg. If adding cheese, allow potatoes to cool, then stir in grated cheese. Chill potato filling before using.
- FOR THE DOUGH, combine flour and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk and water. Add liquid to flour and stir until blended. The dough should be soft enough that it sticks to the bottom of the bowl, but not so soft that it doesn't hold its shape. You can always add a little more liquid or flour if you need to. Cover dough and let rest 1 hour.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough as thinly as possible without tearing. Use a round cutter 3 inches in diameter and cut out circles of dough. Place 1 tablespoons of potato filling into the center of each perogy and pinch the perogy edges closed. Perogies can be frozen in one layer on a baking sheet or kept chilled until ready to cook.
- To serve, melt butter in a sauté pan over medium high heat. Add onions, stirring constantly until onions are richly browned. Reduce heat to medium low.
- TO BOIL VARENYKY: In a pot of boiling salted water, cook about half of the perogies until they float, about 5 minutes. Remove from water with a slotted spoon, add to browned butter and gently stir with rubber spatula or wooden spoon to coat them, cook remaining perogies and stir gently into browned butter. Makes 24 to 30 perogies.

Asia Dry Bulk-Capesize rates face mixed fortunes in dull cargo market
* Brazilian freight rates to firm on limited tonnage -broker
* Australian rates to fall on lack of cargo -broker
By Keith Wallis
SINGAPORE, Dec 10 (Reuters) - The market for capesize bulk carriers is likely to be a tale of two oceans next week, with rates in the Pacific coming under further pressure due to a lack of cargo, while Atlantic rates could continue to rise on a tonnage shortage, brokers said on Thursday.
"Rates from Brazil are still going to push up because tonnage is quite tight," a Singapore-based capesize broker said on Thursday.
Brazilian miner Vale and operators such as Hong Kong's Caravel Group and South Korea's Pan Ocean concluded a raft of fixtures this week to haul iron ore from Tubarao to China, which supported freight rates, according to brokers and Reuters freight data.
"All the other trades are heading down," the broker added.
"It is only Rio Tinto that has been picking up ships, taking a few ships each day," the broker said.
"BHP Billiton hasn't been doing anything and Fortescue Metals won't have any charters until the end of December," the broker added. Continuación...

Upgrade Your Kit with This Amazing Floor Tom!
Pearl's Reference Pure Series Floor Tom gives you solid consistency, powerful resonance, and exceptional projection. Like the rest of Pearl's Reference Pure Series drums, the Reference Pure Series Floor Tom combines top-quality tonewoods, advanced hardware, and Pearl's proprietary Superior Shell Technology to provide you with superior tone and extreme reliability. Once you get your hands on a floor tom like this, you'll wonder how you ever played without one. Whether you're expanding your Reference Pure Series kit or just looking for a killer floor tom, you're going to love playing with a Pear Reference Pure Series Floor Tom!Pearl Reference Pure Series Floor Tom at a Glance:
- The perfect shell configuration
- Next-generation drum hardware
- Pearl's Superior Shell Technology
Unlike typical floor toms, most of which feature all-birch or all-maple shells, Pearl's Reference Pure Series Floor Tom uses a combination of African mahogany and maple to provide you with the perfect balance of warmth and snap. Its shell is also composed of eight individual .9mm plies, whereas most comparable floor tom shells use six or less thicker plies. The result is an extra-thin shell that's surprisingly resonant and complex in tone. And when it comes to clear projection, the Reference Pure Series Floor Tom is second to none.Next-generation drum hardware
Pearl knows that there's a lot more to making a great drum then just its shell. That's why the developed a whole new series of hardware for their Reference Pure Series. STL swivel tube lugs feature minimal contact and super low-mass, which allows the Reference Pure Series Floor Tom to vibrate freely. This dramatically increases the Reference Pure Series Floor Tom's resonance. Pearl's low-mass 1.6mm Fat Tone Hoop also contributes greatly to the Reference Pure Series Floor Tom's resonance while providing amazing strength and rigidity. Another cool highlight are Air Suspension Rubber Tips, which float the Reference Pure Series Floor Tom and prevent premature sound decay from excessive floor contact. You'll hear all of these elements at work every time you hit the Reference Pure Series Floor Tom.Pearl's Superior Shell Technology
The Reference Pure Series Floor Tom is a real performer under pressure... literally. Pearl's Superior Shell Technology is a proprietary technique for creating a super-tight air chamber in each of their Reference Series drums. In addition to overlapping the joins of each ply in the shell and saturating them with Pearl's AcoustiGlue, each shell is molded under extreme pressure (1000psi). The result is that you end up with a stronger shell that has a more consistent overall sound.Pearl Reference Pure Series Floor Tom Features:
- Rich and resonant 14" x 14" floor tom built to the extreme standards of Pearl's Reference Pure series
- Shell constructed from 8 individual .9mm plies, combining the rich bass response of African mahogany with the projection and snap of maple
- Pearl's proprietary Superior Shell Technology ensures exceptional tone, optimal resonance, and extreme strength
- Fully rounded bearing edge provides maximizes the contact area of the head to the shell for added acoustic punch
- Ultra-low-mass STL swivel tube lugs achieve minimal contact with the shell to decrease dampening and increase resonance
- 1.6mm Fat Tone Hoops combine low-mass resonance with heroic strength
- Patented Air Suspension Rubber Tip leg design prevents premature sound decay from floor contact

The Washington-Beijing Axis again hammered New York and London overnight. U.S. stocks fell two percent after suffering a surprise attack from the regulatory flank by President Obama. The Obama proposals are designed to prevent any one bank from becoming "too big to fail." They aim to achieve this – in ways not pleasing to the investment banking industry – by cracking down on proprietary trading and bank sponsorship of hedge funds.
Not that we are going to defend the investment banks. But Washington should make up its mind. The Rubin Treasury had a clear economic philosophy. It thought up the academic jargon of the day, it "privileged" Wall Street over Main Street and Detroit (manufacturing).
The U.S. ran a capital account surplus and a massive current account deficit. Wall Street thrived and booked record profits (as a percentage of S&P 500 earnings) and stocks soared. The wealth effect even trickled down into 401(k)s during the dot com boom. And it was all good.
But now, it's not all good. Banks are bad. And fresh from a third-straight trip to the electoral woodshed, the American president is prepared to go populist. We don't know if the President's proposals will pass, or if they will fix a banking sector that's still saddled with debt. But we doubt it.
Regulatory reforms deal with the future. In the "now", banks still have massive exposure to falls in residential and commercial real estate. Accounting tricks have forestalled the realization of losses. But not even Moses could hold back the tide forever, we reckon.
Speaking of rising tides…another 482,000 Americans filed for unemployment benefits for the first time. That was a 36,000 increase over the previous month. Economists expected a decline.
Stock prices, under siege as Washington attacks the only profit engine in America's economy still firing away, were also hammered by growing concern over tighter Chinese bank lending. That concern, ironically, was even stronger when China reported that fourth quarter GDP came in above expected at 10.7%. If inflation gets loose in China, the central bank will have to be even tighter.
Thus gold's fall and the zombie-like rally of the U.S. dollar. We've seen this before in the last two years. When bad news gains momentum in the investment press, the dollar rallies and gold and stocks fall. The dollar gets a strange "flight to familiarity" bid. What does this say about gold?
It says that dollar rallies are great chances to enter or add to your positions in precious metals or precious metals stocks. Even base metals like copper might be worth a look on the dips, says Diggers and Drillers editor Alex Cowie. Alex sent us the first draft of his January letter late last night.
Commodities will retrench on dollar strength but these dollar rallies on uncertainty and gloom shouldn't be confused with any kind of real dollar strength. On an interest rate basis, the dollar is still getting clobbered by the Aussie and other commodity currencies.
Or, if you prefer to view your currencies as proxies for an entire economy and its growth prospects, you could do worse than look at Brazil. Granted, there aren't a lot of highly liquid options to the USD that don't also suck (the yen, the Euro). But we read in the wee hours of the morning that the Russians are loading up on some of Canada's money and lightening their load of USD.
The main point? The United States is a worsening fiscal trap. Washington confusing the markets about policy and being alternatively negligent and belligerent won't help anything. But then, this is government we're talking about.
Nope…we have not forgotten our promise to investigate the structure of the Financial Claims Scheme that's been proposed by APRA. It's a subject we've been circling around for a few months…trying to figure out if it really does transfer responsibility for guaranteeing the banks to the public balance sheet. But it's a big subject. So be patient, we'll get back to it. Until then…

Civilians always victims of war
You describe the account of civilian casualties caused by Nato forces in Afghanistan as "perhaps the gravest scandal of all" and note that "the record appears to show that an Afghan life is worth far less than that of any Westerner" (leading article, 27 July). In fact, such a revelation is not at all surprising, or even particularly appalling. All military forces prioritise the preservation of their own troops over the lives of inhabitants of what is regarded as enemy territory, whether combatants or civilians.
This attitude is viewed as an essential survival skill. Asuitable historical case in point was the Allied liberation of France from the Nazis in the Second World War, during which up to 70,000 French civilians were unintentionally killed by Allied bombing, committed in the belief that the lives of the Allied troops had to be treated as being of the greatest intrinsic value. So the reason why Western troops have been complaining about the new restrictive rules of engagement as part of a counter-insurgency strategy becomes clear: they perceive it as unfair that the lives of civilians are apparently being seen as of equal or greater importance than their own.
It should come as no surprise that Task Force 373, a clandestine special operations unit, has been accidentally killing Afghan women and children. After all, robot drones piloted by CIA officers have been accidentally killing Pakistani women and children, and Pakistan is our ally. In the fog of war, it's often hard to distinguish a foe from a friend, or a child. Our senior generals have explained publicly why the war cannot be "won"; if only we had the ears to hear and the powers of reason to comprehend.
They have explained that every civilian death strengthens the Taliban (obviously, because young Afghani and Pakistani boys rush to enlist in the effort to drive out the women - and child-killing foreign invaders). Of course Americans know that we are the "good guys" and theTaliban are the "bad guys".Unfortunately, the young men we force into the Taliban's arms know just the opposite.
Three cheers for the internet leak over the consistent failures of the USA-UK campaign in Afghanistan. The only threat to the lives of our troops is our Government putting them into a war that no occupier has ever won. Every lesson of history has shown that any outside power propping up a government in Afghanistan only undermines the credibility of that very government in the eyes of the Afghan people.
We cannot and should not try to impose our culture and politics on an alien culture. We should have never have gone in and the sooner we grasp the reality and pull out the better.
Imran Khan, party leader and former successful Test captain, told Test Match Special lastweek, "Fifty thousand innocent Pakistani civilians have died as a result of the immoral war in Afghanistan". The commentators expressed no surprise. It is not Afghan but Pakistani casualties which have turned moderate Pakistani opinion against the West.
Although the leaks about the Afghanistan war are devastating, I think that the American and British governments and the US military must be breathing a sigh of relief that the date period does not go back to 2001. They must be quaking in their boots about the risk of so-called "secret information" from those earlier years being revealed.
The fast-track asylum scandal
I am glad that the practice of sudden removal of failed asylum-seekers has been challenged (report, 27 July). But the whole idea of a fasttrack system goes against natural justice. Some people can arrive in this country and be put into this category, kept all the time in detention, and be removed six weeks later after having gone through every stage of the system. Many solicitors will not deal with this type of case at all. People seeking sanctuary who have not had the opportunity to obtain more and original evidence from their home country, or to have any documents authenticated are rushed through the courts, never getting the concentrated help they need to challenge the assertions of theHome Office or the judges.
Being in detention makes it hard for them to have quick and easy access to internet, fax or telephone, and if they have no money, they cannot make long-distance calls to far-off countries. Telephone connections can, in any case, be intermittent, and anyone who is asked to post evidence in a fast and reliable way will have to pay a courier firm about £50. People in the home country can be putting themselves in danger by obtaining and sending such evidence. These situations need careful handling which can in itself take time.
People who have escaped prison and torture or other violence are often not in a fit state to think clearly or to grasp clearly the concept of providing proof of what has happened to them. It is the time taken by the Home Office to provide decisions on fresh applications and the time being taken to deal with a backlog of cases from many years that needs cutting down. Rushed decision-making and sudden removal at the early stages is not the answer to the problem and leads to many being sent back to danger. It also adds to the fear experienced by people who are already vulnerable as a result of inhumane treatment in their own country.
Crowded out by free bus passes
If only Adam Martin's assertions (letters, 19 July 2010) that those using a free bus pass enable "the bus operator to fill an otherwise empty seat" were true in this part of England. I travelled to Derby on the hourly express bus from Nottingham to Chesterfield. On leaving the city centre the bus was full with, I would estimate, three-quarters of the seats taken by those on free bus passes. Instead of stopping at the Queen's Medical Centre as scheduled, the bus travelled non-stop to Derby, leaving those wishing to board with a potential wait of an hour if travelling north of Derby because most seats were taken by non-fare paying passengers.
If this were a one-off occasion, I suspect passengers could live with it; sadly, it is all too common. The danger from such a situation is not that, as Mr Martin states, "Without this income [subsidy for allowing free travel for the elderly] ... there will be big cuts in bus services for fare-paying customers as well", but rather the opposite. Eventually, fare-paying passengers will chose the relative certainty of car travel over bus travel, meaning that the operator's revenue from the bus service falls dramatically and that the service becomes unviable and ceases to run.
Scouts and Guides can do the job
As a teenager, I fail to see why the citizenship programme (report, 23 July) has any chance of succeeding. First, hardly any teenagers will be willing to give up their holidays and their first time for relaxation for months because of a programme that wants to order them about and in many other ways feel like a school trip to PGL or similar. Neither will teenagers not already involved in similar voluntary organisations be more likely to join this one.
Second, this supposedly revolutionary idea "that doesn't happen now" has already been done and is being implemented by other organisations. Has Cameron heard of the Scouting and Guiding movements? Why not just direct these "lost teenagers" who have "no direction" in their lives to the nearest Scout or Guide branch? This would be much easier, because they are already doing all the things Cameron wants for this programme and they don't waste £13m and then £37m of taxpayer money when valuable resources are being cut.
Cuts may change jail sentencing
Understandably, the stance taken by the chairman of The Magistrates Association, Mr John Thornhill (report, 22 July) reflects the public view that community punishments should be "challenging, strong and effective". The problem with this analysis is that it omits a factor now being rigorously pursued in all areas of public spending, namely "value for money". Should this concept be applied to the area of sentencing, the size of the prison population would surely decline as people question, for example, the "value for money" of spending £45,000 per prisoner per year, an annual £13bn cost to the taxpayer. We should also examine why we have the highest incarceration rate and presumably the most costly prison expenditure rate in the whole of Western Europe.
The cuts to essential public spending on education and health are likely to impact negatively on many sections of society; in the case of cuts to the prison budget, hopefully that will lead to a major change in society's attitude to the sentencing of offenders.
Dutch brought it on themselves
I have to respond to your correspondent from Holland who accused the English press of tarnishing the good name of Dutch football (letters, 19 July). The Dutch manager and players did that all by themselves. The 90 minutes of football (I use that description loosely) in theWorld Cup final has done more damage to the Dutch reputation than any press report.
The Hollanders (under instruction) spent 90 minutes attempting to intimidate Spain and kick them off the field. Any person who had great effection for Cruyff and Total Football had to shed a tear at the cynicism on display. Holland was a great footballing nation because it wanted to play great football, not win at any price.
No Labour vote because of Brown
The reason that myself and many other lifelong Labour voters deserted the party at the last election was entirely due to the mismanagement of Gordon Brown (interview, 26 July). If having to put up with a Con-Lib Dem coalition is the price we have to pay to get rid of him, then so be it, and I am sure that the party will come back much stronger, although none of the five leadership contenders inspire much confidence so far.
It is interesting to note that Brown talks so fondly of Fife, and that is because it is one of the few areas where he would be elected. He is quick to forget that he stood for Edinburgh South where he was defeated by Tory Michael Ancram, before heading to a county that will always vote Labour, irrespective of the quality of the candidate.
Raising a glass to the Pipe & Glass
Reading Christopher Hirst waxing lyrical about the Pipe &Glass pub in South Dalton (26 July) took me back to my days 25 years ago as a delivery driver for the long-defunct County Catering Company of nearby Hull. Many years before the present owners were in place, the P&G had a reputation for being "pricey", which is what we called such places before the term "gastropub" became popular. Similar comments were made of other pubs in the neighbouring villages of Walkington, Skidby and Bishop Burton.
I never dined in any of them, despite them being on my weekly route, and it wasn't that the cost was beyond my van-driver's wage. What dissuaded me was the experience of entering a restaurant through its kitchens and not its front door.
Pope's decision seems absurd
The Vatican's decision to categorise the "attempt to ordain women" as a "grave offence" is a curious one because people involved in such events are routinely excommunicated (report, 21 July). Perhaps it is because this sanction has failed to deter the rising numbers of women, and their supporters, who seek ordination within RC communities that the Vatican is trying to discredit them more widely by using such an abusive term.
The Vatican's action smacks of desperation, harming only itself in alienating members of its own Church and in appearing absurd to the wider world.
Musical echo
Further to your article, "Comrades gather to give Animal Farm a musical makeover" (27 July), it should be noted that despite theinference that this is the first time it has been put to music, Lee Hall, Elton John et al may be a little late. There is already an excellent and very popular adaptation by Peter Hall (no relation) which was first performed in 1984 at the National Theatre. It is even used as a set text in GCSE drama.
Under the gun?
In the issue listing unnecessary quangos to be culled (27 July), you show a picture of The King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery, enjoying a canter along the beach at Blackpool. Can you remind us please: why exactly do we need horse artillery?
Perspectives on the Middle East
Real situation in Jordan
Your article, "Why Jordan is Occupied by Palestinians" (22 July) contains inaccurate statements. It refers to a "venomous article" written by a "Palestinian writer" in The Jerusalem Post. I am the writer, but I am a Jordanian citizen from a Palestinian heritage.
My article discussed the apartheid policies implemented by the King in relation to the intelligence and security establishment and not "of men who wanted to set up a racist apartheid state". Although, having read your article, it is clear that this is the intention of the former army generals. You claim that "perhaps 57 per cent of Jordanians are non-Palestinian": UNWRA states that 70 per cent of the population are Jordanian-Palestinians (so 30 per cent are non-Palestinian).
Most of them have no historical ties or links with the Palestinian Authority. The generals interviewed appear to be ignorant of the fact that the West Bank, which was occupied by Israel in 1967, is still constitutionally part of Jordan. So Palestinians living in the West Bank are eligible for Jordanian citizenship and full political rights. Far from challenging the King, it is clear that this is an attempt to support his efforts to resist the repatriation of the West Bank to Jordan, as this would pose a significant challenge to the King's continued leadership.
Before Jordan's creation byBritain in 1921, its civil society was practically non-existent, being mainly tribal. Jordanian-Palestinian immigrants in 1948, 1967, and after the Gulf War in 1990 are what make up today's Jordan. Their contribution to the economy, civil society and statebuilding has provided them with every right to be the leading stakeholder in the country.
Arabs not given chance to 'decline'
As a long-time fan of RobertFisk's work, I was a bit surprised to see the assertion in his article that "the term Palestinian broadly refers to Arabs who declined Israeli citizenship in 1948, when the country was formed". The verb "decline" implies a kind of autonomy which many of these people simply did not have. From the creation of Israel in 1948 to the passing of the Israeli Nationality Law in July 1952, Palestinians were effectively rendered stateless. Article 18 of the Laws of the State of Israel states that Palestinian citizenship orders were retrospectively "repealed with effect from the day of the establishment of the State".
Obtaining Israeli citizenship was not a straightforward task. Those who failed to attain legal status remained in Israel as stateless persons, immediately entering a black hole where they did not gain the full spectrum of rights, or the ability to make real choices about citizenship.Any articles mentioning historical Palestinian citizenship must reflect the harsh realities of the situation in which many Arabs found themselves circa 1948.

Hey mew!
Nice... I'm glad they didn't exactly start something, because... I don't know? Just 'cause.
It was nice, truly.
| lowi chapter 1 . 9/6/2011
I really liked this, mew! The ending was really perfect, and I absolutely LOVE how you write Narcissa!
Great work! Oh, and that bit about Bella, I don't know why, but I liked it so much! ;3

So sweet again Mew!
I love how you portray Sybil, and a sequel would be nice *uses cute puppy dog eyes* but if I can't oh well lol. Narcissa struggling with her emotions and talking about her sisters felt very real, like she was someone who was real and actually going through it.

It almost needs a sequel just to see if she went chasing after her.
Bella must be totally screwed up, by the way!

I'm really surprised this isn't more well known, I've been looking for a D20 alternative somewhere between Microlite20 and Pathfinder for awhile now and with this I've found it. It's a fine rules lite game with a tad bit of crunch which is my personal favorite flavor. For those that are aware of Microlite this is just a step above that on the crunch side of things, and the quirky setting is icing on the cake. Highly reccommended if the weird pitch intrigued you or you want a game that is easy to strip to pieces.
An outstanding game, the simple system makes it easy to expand upon and I have a soft spot in my heart for GM less games. It has many extra options in the gold edition so I recommend it not only for the extras but to support the author!
My only grip is the limited amount of encounters listed but it is easy to make more.

The cool granny, who smokes weed and refreshments alcohol? She really exists! The intense individual taking his iMac to the bistro? He really exists! The strong McDonald's wizard, who has a Big Mac up his sleeve? Yes, he genuinely exist!
The outline could continue ceaselessly, however take look yourself and snatch a chuckle or two (or maybe forty). Regardless, urban legends don't generally begin from a urban setting. Additionally, urban legends existed before they were known as urban legend. Starting now, these legends or stories were intimated as "folklore".There are different things on the planet that you haven't thought about and you will be astonished once you found every one of it. In any case, impact organized to be surprised and stunned at apparently the most phenomenal ladies that you will encounter significant troubles that exist!

Courteney Cox Last To Leave?
Published: August 10, 2015
Courteney Cox Last To Leave?, Courteney Cox was the "last guest to leave" Jennifer Aniston's wedding.
The 'Cougar Town' actress wasn't among the guests spotted arriving for the nuptials between her 'Friends' co-star and Justin Theroux at their Bel Air home on Wednesday), but insiders insist that she was there and partied harder than almost anyone.
A source told People magazine: "The last guest to leave was Courteney.
"She left right after Ellen DeGeneres and Jimmy Kimmel. She left around 3 am. At 2 am. they still had the music pretty loud."
The low-key wedding was described as being more like a "warm house party" and everyone had a great time.
A source said: "It was done completely on the sly. It was their closest friends and very simple and intimate. There were lots of laughs as well as tears and the mood was light."
Guests were entertained by Sia, who sang her hit 'Chandelier', and dined on a lavish feast of chicken, fish, sausage, fettuccine carbonara with pork and mostaccioli pasta with red sauce.
A source told Us Weekly magazine: "It was really, really good. The cake was delicious!"
Friend and photographer Terry Richardson took pictures throughout the celebration, while Jennifer's friend Jennifer Mayer – who is married to Tobey Maguire – designed the pair's wedding rings.
The couple are believed to have headed to Bora Bora on honeymoon with a small group of friends.

Ooooh we're pretty pumped to share something kinda big with you today! For the past twelve months, well known Melbourne designer Beci Orpin has been working feverishly on a new project of rather epic proportions, in collaboration with local entrepreneur Adam Rogers. The result is Arro Home, an extensive new locally designed homewares label, incorporating a broad range of soft furnishings (including rugs!), tableware and other quirky, colourful home accessories.
Beci and Adam initially met a few years ago on a previous project, and instantly hit it off. 'During one meeting we started talking about homewares, and realised we both shared the same ideas and enthusiasm for design' recalls Beci. 'Before we knew it, Arro Home was born!'
Beci is Arro's creative director, and with her small team of assistants, has designed the debut range almost exclusively in house (and it's huge!). 'It's taken us approximately one year to get to this point. We started slowly as we wanted the product to be perfect. No stone was left unturned!' says Beci.
From the outset, it has been very important to both Adam and Beci to design their range with an affordable pricepoint in mind. Locally made ceramic tableware starts at $20, whilst rugs, designed locally and produced overseas are priced from $300. 'We really wanted the range to be accessible' says Adam.
Arro Home's first collection features bedding, cushions, ceramics, rugs, tablelinen and kitchen textiles and more. In keeping with Beci's distinctive style, the Arro Home aesthetic incorporates bold, colourful print and pattern, designed to be mixed up and layered for full effect! Arro Home also have some pretty cool collaborations in the pipeline, and will be introducing new product categories over the coming months… stay tuned!
The full Arro Home range is available for pre-order online now (it will ship at the end of the month). Currently, they ship Australia wide – International shipping is in the works and it expected to be up and running within 4 weeks.


text: Posted September 3, 2013 Ok...let me start out by saying (something you clearly are missing) is that the "Wilson isn't a game manager" comment had nothing to do about who he is playing or what defense is on the field. I'm not sure why you don't get that but I'm guessing you misinterpreted my initial post. I don't know how you got the whole Carolina D vs Atlanta D thing but whatever. The point I was making that Wilson is much more than a game manager, as he showed in the playoffs against Atlanta. I hate to say I was defending Wilson, but really, I'm trying to understand why everyone thinks he is an Alex Smith-esque QB. Because he's not. And to answer your question about how they might beat us I believe I answered that as well. I said I felt like we match up well against their offense (Carolina D vs Seahawks O) BUT they also match up well against us (Seahawks D vs Carolina O) and without sounding repetitive (I already answered this) that the game would come down to which QB handled the pressure better. So, just for you, I'm basically saying that the Seahawks can win on Sunday if Russell Wilson handles the pressure better than Cam. I also believe their running game is more effective than ours which means they will be able to win the time of possession, something that I feel will be very telling in this game considering the defenses. If we can rattle Wilson and Cam can make the throws he's capable of then we have a chance. Let me know if I can clarify anything else (more passive aggressive stuff). Youre acting like you said more than you did and you didnt. You used Atl's D as a reference to Wilson not being a game manager. To which I eluded, our D is not their D. The situations are entirely different. Their whole season they rode Lynch to the playoffs, do you disagree? Would they have made it without that line and that rb? and again when you make it point to close with that like you did. . . again. . Im reading like this "Yes Im trying to be a jackass about it" Do I think Wilson is a good QB? sure. Better than Cam? no, he cant make the same throws and he cant magically come up with 3rd downs on 3rd and a bizallion. They both handle pressure well I would say, wouldnt you? Cam has dealt with pressure for years now and he's still thrived. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add Lockheed Martin to the list:
American global aerospace, defense, security, and advanced technology company Lockheed Martin, maker of Israel's F-16, F-15 and F-35 fighter jets, announced Sunday that it will open a research and development center in Israel in partnership with American IT storage company EMC.
No announcement was made on how many new jobs the center will create.
The new center, which will be introduced Monday at the companies' stand in Tel Aviv at the Cyber Tech 2014 conference, will be built in the new industrial park in Beersheba, focusing on cyber defense solutions. The two companies announced that they want to develop plans for cloud computing and big data analytics in the cyber field. The spokesperson said the park in Beersheba will provide an ideal infrastructure for the two companies to cooperate with industrial researchers, Ben-Gurion University, start-up companies and leading venture capital funds.

Salt Concentration a Factor in the Availability of Phosphorus from Rock Phosphate as Revealed by the Growth and Composition of Alfalfa1
- D. O. Howe and
- E. R. Graham2
A study of the availability of phosphorus held in rock phosphate in relation to the soluble salt content of sandclay cultures was made. An effort was made to relate the availability of the phosphorus to the relative bonding energies of Putnam clay for calcium, magnesium, potassium, and hydrogen. Alfalfa was grown as the test crop. The less than 0.2 µ Putnam clay was brought to desired cation saturation by making the system unsaturated by treating the Na suspended clay with hydrogen-Amberlite (IR-120), electrodialyzing to reconcentrate, and then adding carbonates or hydroxides of Ca, Mg, and K. Trace elements and nitrogen as ammonium nitrate were added in small amounts. Phosphorus was added as either rock phosphate or phosphoric acid. Calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium salts were added. Calcium and magnesium salts were added in series at 0.010, 0.020, 0.041, 0.081, and 0.163 moles per liter and potassium and sodium salts at 0.020, 0.041, 0.081, and 0.163 moles per liter of soil water.
The results showed all salts influenced the availability of phosphorus held in rock phosphate. However, calcium salts reduced phosphorus uptake with small reduction in plant yields. Variable effects on plant yields and phosphorus uptake resulted when magnesium salts were used. Potassium salts of different anions produced different degrees of response, with the first increments of the carbonate and sulfate giving a positive yield response while the chloride depressed growth and phosphorus uptake. Sodium sulfate gave a reduction in crop yields and phosphorus uptake indicating an influence of excessive sodium.Please view the pdf by using the Full Text (PDF) link under 'View' to the left.

About Me
Hello! I am Jasanna, a recent addition to the Des Moines area. I was a native of Southern California, and can't wait to do some modeling in this new and gorgeous place! Message me if you are interested!
Nude, implied nude, lingerie and revealing swimsuit shots I don't do, even though I know it is an art expression for some. I do have personal boundaries that I will not cross as far as that, but I am willing to work with you in many areas and welcome questions! I'm not at all going to be rude about being opinionated in my boundaries! Adding accessories, edgy clothing, period clothing and just fun wardrobe are my favorite. I LOVE "becoming" the person you are looking for in those clothes!
Thank you for looking at my profile and considering me. I greatly appreciate it and look forward to hearing from you! Please let me know if the work is TFP, TFCD, etc, if the work will be retouched for free, if hair/wardrobe/makeup is provided, where the shoot is located, how long it is planned for, etc. Details!
