You probably paid a cheap price for those groceries at Walmart this week, but you almost certainly didn't pay a fair price.

Some 29 miners were trapped on Thursday (local time) after
heavy rains provoked a landslide at the mine in the Bonanza
project, about 420km northeast of Managua, which was closed
about four years ago after being deemed unsafe.
Rescue teams will continue search efforts, after freeing two
miners on Thursday and another 20 on Friday, according to
Rosario Murillo Ortega, government spokesman and wife of
Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega.
"We are monitoring the situation, following up on all efforts
to find the five or seven companions," Murillo said.
Artisanal mining is legal in Nicaragua, the poorest country
in Latin America, where it is used as a way for more people
to profit from the industry.
Bonanza project mine had been severely affected by seasonal
rains in the past, with another landslide two months ago
killing two miners, according to Mineros S.A., the Colombian
parent company of Nicaraguan miner Hemco, which operates the
Informal miners continued to work at the mine against the
company's orders, according to Julio Quintero, head of Hemco.
Quintero said Hemco had continued to buy minerals from them
until last week, when it decided it could not be sure where
the product came from.
The Bonanza project, which began in 1995, produces around
37,300 troy ounces of gold a year, according to Hemco's

Summer Internship Programme for Students 2016
A great opportunity for students who want to gain work experience over the summer at a small-to-medium enterprise.
How would you like to gain real life experience working for a small or medium sized enterprise and get paid for it?
Applications for the 2016 programme have now closed. Further news about the 2017 programme will be released in the autumn/winter of 2016.
UCL is committed to:
- Bettering students' employability skills;
- Connecting students with the exciting entrepreneurial and small business scene in London; and
- Supporting London-based SMEs gain real tangible benefits from a UCL intern and to make their businesses progress.
This summer, UCL Advances will fund approximately 100 internship places (8 or 12 weeks) to UCL students and recent graduates (from 2014, 2015 and 2016) who have submitted a compelling application together with an SME of their choice. In other words, applications are from student-company pairs, NOT from a student or a company separately, wishing to be matched to a counterpart.
To find a company with whom to submit an application, you can either attend a recruitment fair specific to this programme in March 2016 and meet companies looking to recruit, or you can contact SMEs of your choice and see if they'd like to apply with you.
In addition to new skills and experience to add to your CV, you will be paid £329/week which equates to London Living Wage for a full-time internship. If you earn £10,600 or less during the 2015/16 tax year, your income is within the Personal Allowance limit and therefore, not subject to tax. If you earn more than £10,600 during the year, you will need to file a self-assessment tax return to HMRC. Please note that holiday pay is NOT included in this so if you intend on taking a holiday during your internship (or to take time off to work on a dissertation etc), you will need to firstly agree this with your host company, and secondly agree how to make up for the time (extend your internship by x weeks or work longer hours on other days).
What is an SME?
An SME is a small or medium-sized enterprise, defined as:
- employing fewer than 250 people; and
- having an annual turnover of less than €50 million.
Start ups, social enterprise and charities are also included. SMEs are an important growth area for graduate recruitment. New and upcoming businesses tend to be SMEs and they cover most business sectors.
Who is eligible?
Eight week internships are open to all UCL students and recent graduates (from 2014, 2015 and 2016) from all faculties and degrees.
Twelve week internships are ONLY open to final year students and recent graduates (ie, you will not be returning to full-time studies in September 2016) due to the restrictions of Santander Universities who part-funds these placements. Successful interns here will also need to complete additional forms in line with Santander Universities requirements.
To take part in any placement, you need to be eligible to work in the UK. If you are an international student, your visa must cover the full duration of the internship.*
- Please see the student information pack for more details on eligibility of those with a Tier 4 visa but a general rule is that if you're a postgraduate student on a Tier 4 visa, it is likely that you are not eligible.
Eligibility requirements for host companies are that they must:
- Be an SME, start-up, social enterprise, or charity;
- Be based in London (within zones 1-6);
- Have a desk for you in an office (NOT a home office) where another full-time member of the company sits (co-working spaces are acceptable); and
- Have a member of the senior management team is committed to spending at least half a day per week meeting with or mentoring you (taking you to meetings, reviewing goals and tasks etc).
If you submit an application with a company,
it must be a new relationship (ie, you cannot be/have been an employee/paid
intern of the company, you must not own any equity/shares in the company, and
you must not be related to the owner(s)/director(s).
Enterprise Bootcamp
The Enterprise Bootcamp is a 3 day free course that teaches the fundamentals of the modern business world. Attendance at an Enterprise Bootcamp is mandatory to securing an internship. Previous interns who have attended the Enterprise Bootcamp have testified how valuable and relevant the content has been, not just to their internship but also in general. Sign up quickly as they normally sell out!
How to apply
Submit the joint application form to email@example.com by 12pm on Monday 25 April 2016. Please note that we will NOT be reviewing these forms until w/c 25 April 2016. Each party in the application form should set aside at least 30 minutes to complete their portion of the form (general guidelines on what we're looking for in the applications are given in the information packs).

China Southern lands amid concerns about outbound numbers
The Member for Cairns says it still isn't profitable enough for Chinese airlines to operate lots of regular flights year-round.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Cairns welcomed its first scheduled China Southern Airlines flights from Guangzhou on Thursday - the first of 21 special flights to operate over the next four weeks.
More than 20,000 Chinese tourists are expected to fly into the far north over the Chinese New Year holiday period.
Gavin King says more work is needed to attract those visitors year-round.
"We just don't have the base population to get those outbound numbers that airlines need to be profitable," he says.
"We can bring people in fairly easily, but getting the domestic connections and getting the bums on seats on the way out, that's what airlines are working on at the moment."
Frank Gyzemyter from China Southern Airlines says the company is working to improve connectivity between Brisbane and Cairns to make the route more viable.
"What we're trying to do is to connect the two together and that hasn't been totally successful, mainly because of technical things on our part but that will be straightened out in the future," he says.
"Our planning is to operate on high season period which would normally be three to four months a year, and that will eventually lead to bigger and better things."
Mr King says a recent visit by one of China's top government officials shows the region still needs to ramp up its marketing efforts.
"One of the things that was said is that the marketing of Cairns and Queensland China could be done better," he says.
"And that's something that we're working on in partnership with airlines. Making people aware of what we've got here. It's such a huge market and it's a very costly and difficult exercise."

ABCs of beauty CREAMS
You thought you learned your ABCs years ago, but in the makeup world there is a new lesson. The business of AA, BB and CC creams has taken the market by storm. According to the Wall Street Journal, BB creams have generated approximately $9 million in U.S. department stores and at Sephora. This trend shows no sign of letting up, and with the addition of CC creams to market this year, the numbers are sure to soar. So what does all of this mean for your morning makeup regimen? Here's the breakdown:
AA: Anti Aging
These creams are straightforward. They claim to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Ingredients include retinol, amino acids and alpha hydroxy/beta hydroxy acids -- all of which help to reduce the signs of aging. All in all, AA creams can be a great addition to your skin care regimen. However, if you are already using the moisturizer that is best suited for you, or are using an anti-aging skin-care line, you may not need to add this to your routine.
BB: Beauty or Blemish Balms
Here is the cream that started it all. BB creams originated in Germany, when in the late 1960s a doctor performing laser procedures, chemical peels and surgery created this post-procedure product to soothe the skin. In the 1980s, BB creams went national when they became popular in Japan and Korea. Now BBs have grown to a global sensation, with claims that they are a "one and done" for your skin. This product is a tinted moisturizer, makeup primer, foundation and sunblock in one jar. New BB creams now include the addition of anti-aging and corrective ingredients to the mix for a product that really multitasks.
BB creams are easy to add to any makeup routine and provide a quick step for someone who may not like to apply numerous products in the morning. Once you find the right formula, you can have it all -- serum, moisturizer, foundation and sunscreen. All of this means many ingredients, so if you are sensitive to sunscreens or anti-aging products, you may have to do a little more homework to find one that is right for you. The choices are endless. From drugstore to luxury brands, you can certainly find the BB right for you.
CC: Color Corrective
CC creams recently came onto the makeup market billed as the next step beyond a BB cream. CC creams are offering more coverage and ingredients, including vitamins C, E and hyaluronic acid. These may help to repair and treat hyperpigmentation or boost collagen production. CCs offer all of the attributes of BBs but are also focused on treatment. Because this product is relatively new to the market, there are not as many choices. Have no fear; many more will be coming along.
The first DD cream was introduced in June. It's touted as a "dynamic-do-it-all." The new DD by Julep includes two different anti-aging ingredients and claims to improve your skin over time. Other DD creams are marketed as daily defense body creams -- available in the U.K.
ZZ: Zit Zappers
Now if you feel like you just devoured a large bowl of alphabet soup, the beauty blogs are buzzing with rumored "zit-zapping creams."
So now you know your ABCs of makeup, and this craze surely will continue to offer more lessons.
Beth Brown is a self-proclaimed makeup and skin-care junkie and a nail technician/aesthetician at Ultimate Therapy Salon in Erie.

The Angel That Helped Him Recover
The Angel That Helped Him Recover
A grieving widower discovers that God puts certain people in our lives for heavenly reasons.
I didn't take very good care of myself after my wife died. I slept erratically, ate junk food, cut myself off from friends. One night I flopped into bed, not even bothering to unmake it.
I couldn't believe she was gone after battling a host of medical problems. It should have been me. I stared at the ceiling and thought back to my past–the dark years of my addiction, and the girl who changed everything.
I was at my lowest point yet, sitting on the hardwood floor of my one-room apartment in the roughest part of town. I'd spent the past four years deep into drugs and alcohol. Burned every bridge, lost faith in God and stolen from my mother.
I thought about getting clean sometimes, but I always went right back to using.
What was the point of anything? I looked around. The sink overflowed with dishes. I couldn't remember the last time I'd taken out the trash. I felt stuck in a cage of my own making, like I was too far gone, beyond help.
I put my head in my hands and sat there, my heart pounding in my ears. As I raised my head I had the overwhelming sense that I wasn't alone. Light danced before my eyes. I turned–a girl was sitting right beside me. Karen?
I rubbed my eyes in disbelief. She was my best friend in high school. We'd lost touch years ago but I could see her clearly–her big smile, those green eyes. You're just seeing things, I told myself. Going through withdrawal. Then she faded away.
I glanced at the phone. I still had Karen's number somewhere. What if I called her? What did I have to lose?
"Hi," I said, fumbling with the cord. "Is this Karen?" I thought she might hang up when she recognized my voice. I couldn't blame her.
"Yes," she said. She paused. "Mark, is that you?"
"It's me." I waited for the click.
"Hey there, stranger. Good to hear your voice again."
She didn't hang up. In fact, she seemed happy to talk to me. I opened up. Told her about my struggles getting sober. My falling out with my mom. She listened, made me laugh even. It felt like old times.
Karen and I used to see a lot of each other. Her best friend was dating my best friend, and somehow we'd just clicked from the beginning. I wondered why I hadn't kept up with her, but that was only one mistake I'd made among many. I told Karen I was done making mistakes.
"I believe you," she said.
If Karen could believe me, maybe I could believe in myself too. Right there on the phone I resolved to stay clean. From then on, anytime I felt that self-destructive itch, I called Karen. Whenever I hesitated about the daunting tasks ahead–reaching out to my mom, finding a job–Karen reassured me.
"Faith helps," she said one day. "When is the last time you spoke to God?"
Karen was right. It had been too long. I started praying again and got the courage to call my mom. She was willing to give me a second chance! I moved home and invited Karen over to have dinner with us.
"They're looking for warehouse help where I work," Karen said. I'd done that kind of work before. The next day, I took the bus to the industrial supply house and filled out an application. Karen winked from the receptionist's desk. A week later, I had a job.
I'd forgotten how much I loved working. Even better, Karen and I carpooled. She did the driving, I paid for the gas. We started to have lunch together, then dinners out. After a short time "officially dating," we married.
We had 18 years together as husband and wife. Happy years I might never have lived to see if not for Karen. I still couldn't believe God had put such an angel in my life. Why had he taken her away?

It is a union type of (array nil (*)) and simple-base-string on non-unicode targets. * Because the (array nil (*)) came first in the list of types in the union, and because its element-type was *empty-type*, the sentinel value, it was ignored when computing the overall array element type. * Because the character and base-char types are disjoint, the overall array element type calculation came up with the correct answer on unicode builds. * To correct the problem, select a sentinel value that is not a type object: NIL. * From IRC, this morning: [9:40] * nikodemus hates (array nil) [9:40] <nikodemus> and it hates me right back Index: NEWS =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/sbcl/sbcl/NEWS,v retrieving revision 1.1820 retrieving revision 1.1821 diff -u -d -r1.1820 -r1.1821 --- NEWS 30 Sep 2010 08:43:55 -0000 1.1820 +++ NEWS 3 Oct 2010 14:52:26 -0000 1.1821 @@ -21,6 +21,7 @@ ** bug fix: build now works on cygwin with GCC 4.x installed.

With so much to read and so little time, I recently decided Commonweal was an enjoyable but not essential part of my routine and intended to let my subscription lapse. Then the June 15 issue arrived. Luke Timothy Johnson and Eve Tushnet's exchange, "Homosexuality & the Church: Two Views," changed my mind.
Both authors contributed intelligent, challenging examinations of a difficult issue-precisely the kind of respectful, thoughtful discussion we so badly need and so rarely have. Neither viewpoint can (or should) be easily dismissed, and I admire Commonweal for consistently recognizing that this is the case in nearly every issue that divides us. I'm renewing my subscription now: any magazine that prioritizes careful intellectual discernment over strident dogmatism is essential.

In her response to Luke Timothy Johnson, Eve Tushnet misconstrues Johnson's argument and in the process offers a false choice. According to Tushnet, Johnson argues that personal...

Backups to the Future: Eliminate Tape Backups with FreeNAS and Bacula
Although we have simplified the near-line backup process here, it's only the beginning. Our simple setup has accomplished what we set out to do: back up our data to a networked disk. To replace tapes completely in most backup strategies, you need some sort of offsite storage/synchronization scheme, which I've not addressed here. However, once you see much faster backups and how much more data you can store on a disk, you'll be itching to make the move and get rid of those tapes.

Tape Sets
I followed this article with great interest, it's really instructive.
I implemented the same "algorithm" but with tapes.
I'm confused about how many do I need, and when to change ??
can you help please ?

Did he really tell us to change all the passwords to a default so we can get the system up and running? Then go back later....
Isn't this how we got ourselves in to the security quagmire we've been trying to get out of for years? Too many simple passwords or "we'll do it later.." has left back doors the size of trucks in our networks.
Please, teach us better than this!

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

I have recently made cryptic references to Sinn Féin TALKING about Wolfe Tone but being unable to spell his name. In todays Irish News, Diana Rusk reveals all….well most.
Last week in the small village of Derrymacash leaflets were distributed by Sinn Fein noting an advice clinic would be held in the local GAA Club…the Wolfe Tones. But local residents were left to scratch their heads…because the residents, many of them members of a fast growing club realised that the GAA cannot host such events. While it is safe to assume that all members of the Club, situated in the nationalist Loughside DEA in Craigavon Council area. Effectively it is made up of four small villages…..Derrymacash/Aghacommon, Derrytrasna, Aghagallon (all nationalist and where the local GAA clubs are the main social hub) and the Bannfoot area (unionist).
The 2011 local council election shows. Sinn Féin on 60% of the vote. SDLP get 30% of the vote. DUP 7%. Three of the five councillors for the area are SF. The other two are SDLP.
While many residents took concerns to the Wolfe Tones Club, clearly residents/club members also brought Dolores Kelly MLA into the story. And Dolores has quite properly run with it, contacted the Ulster Council of the GAA who have contacted the Club, reminding them of the rules. The event has now been cancelled. A massive own goal by Sinn Féin.
And quite properly Dolores has publicised the story thru Diana Rusk in todays Irish News. Cllr Mairead O'Dowd (a sister in law of John O'Dowd MLA???) appears a little ungracious. She is blaming the SDLP for depriving the local electorate of an opportunity to talk to their political representatives. Cllr O'Dowd appears to live in the area and quite possibly might be a member of the Wolfe Tones GAC…….but she has embarrassed both her Party and the local Club. Quite possibly the booking of the club might have been made in a personal capacity but the GAA tends to enforce these rules rather well.
In the interests of disclosure I should state that I am a member of the GAA but NOT a member of Wolfe Tones GAC. One of the great joys about being in a GAA club is that there is no overt party politics. Essentially there is no big deal about sports clubs hosting "political" events. After all on 18th May,Strabane Cricket Club hosted "A Night at the Races" fundraiser for the SDLP. I dont suppose anyone thinks of it as an endorsement of SDLP policies by Strabanes cricketing community. The GAA is extremely sensitive to any charges like this. And mostly it works…not least to the benefit of the GAA and its members. And indeed nationalists.
Actually thats not entirely true. It tends to depend on the Club. Back in the 1960s, the GAA in Belfast was the preserve of men of the Old Decency…..Confraternity men, pioneers, Conradh na Gaeilge men. Nationalists certainly but usually without Party label. As a young drummer boy aged about twelve, I remember the Great Roddy McCorley/Seán South Controversy at Casement Park. Our band leader was advised that it was ok to play "Roddy McCorley" but NOT "Seán South from Garryowen". One is a national song (good) and the other is a rebel song (bad)……..so we played Roddy McCorley …….but er the music is actually the same. Well in fairness I wasnt much of a drummer and everything I played sounded the same.
The simple fact is that militant republicans, ex-prisoners were very often (but not always) Paddy-Come-Latelys to the GAA (and Irish language)..certainly in West Belfast. Certainly I recall a man who started to appear at West Belfast club matches and was very vociferous supporter even though he seemed to know nothing about the rules. The men from the Old Decency referred to him as "Offside" or "Handball".
So how on earth did Upper Bann Sinn Féin make such an elementary mistake as trying to stage an advice centre in a GAA club. Clearly they did not think it thru. Carelessness? Arrogance? Both? But I tend to think of it as further evidence that Sinn Féin is disconnecting with those it professes to represent.
My view remains that ten years ago, the SDLP (in government) lost the plot a little. Clearly the Good Friday Agreement was under pressure from SF and DUP and many mainstream nationalists/republicans did not trust the SDLP to negotiate in their interests and shifted to SF. I consider this vote "softer" than SF realises. It is now SDLP who are talking about prisoners rights while SF are using the "L" word in connexion with Derry.
Put frankly….Sinn Féin are losing their touch.
Yet……Dolores Kelly (or maybe Diana Rusk) could have gone a step further. This past weekend, Sinn Féin talked a lot about Wolfe Tone …..in Killarney. Meanwhile in a small village on the shores of Lough Neagh, they insult members of a GAA club named in his honour. For as can be seen in the leaflet, they can't even spell his name right. Its WOLFE Tone…..not WOLF Tone. Ten years ago, Sinn Féin would not have been so careless.

What is normal distance between the two?
In E3 demos the players were sitting on the couch. And the camera covered just a bit of the carpet and tips of the heads. So if the players would stand - they wouldn't fit.
I don't have a big room and have problems with Xbox 360 Kinect (just 1.7m between Kinect and me). Just curious how Eye will behave.

Public radio donates musical instruments
The instrumental music programs at four local schools are being enhanced through the donations of thousands of dollars in instruments.
Colorado Public Radio, as part of its annual instrument drive, has donated a variety of wind and string instruments to Pueblo City Schools' (D60) Corwin International Magnet School, Heaton Middle School and East High School; and Sierra Vista Elementary School in Pueblo County District 70.
"We're thrilled," said Bonnie Norton, D60's fine arts specialist. "This program truly supports the needs of our students and puts smiles on so many faces. You can expect to hear beautiful music from our students for many years to come."
CPR donated the instruments to the schools from its annual instrument drive program held in conjunction with the Mr. Holland's Opus Foundation.
Each year, CPR seeks donations of gently used instruments that are cleaned and repaired and awarded to schools in need of them.
Corwin, Heaton and East received a combined 44 instruments worth over $24,000. Among the instruments received were tubas, trumpets and tenor saxophones.
Amanda Schoolland, music teacher at Sierra Vista, said her school received 25 instruments, including flutes, clarinets, trumpets, violins and cellos.
Schoolland said the instruments will be used by the new after-school band and orchestra program.
"This is great for our school to be able to get these almost brand new instruments," she said. "This is going to enhance our music program."

Tonight's Premier League clash between Arsenal and Manchester United has been building up hype seemingly all week.
While Arsenal look like title contenders and United look like a giant question mark, Arsene Wenger looking like a genius and David Moyes looking like a mistake, tonight's match could change all of that or cement the perceptions even further.
With such a highly anticipated fixture already upon us this season between the two sides, we look at five of the most memorable matches between them at Old Trafford in recent times.
1. Man United 0 Arsenal 1 October 20, 1990: Anders Limpar scored the winner in this First Division game, but it was the 21-man brawl brought about by a foul by Uniteds Denis Irwin on Arsenals Nigel Winterburn that this match is best remembered. Arsenal were deducted two points by the English FA and United one.
2. Man United 0 Arsenal 1 May 8, 2002: The two sides had fought for the title that season, but a strong second half to the campaign had seen Arsene Wengers side pull away from United at the top. Victory at Old Trafford, thanks to a second-half Sylvain Wiltord effort, saw Arsenal crowned as champions on Uniteds turf.
3. Man United 0 Arsenal 0 September 21, 2003: An unremarkable encounter came to life in stoppage time when United won a penalty. There was already bad feeling towards Ruud van Nistelrooy from Arsenal players, who felt he had got Patrick Vieira sent off, and when the Dutchmans spot kick hit the bar and bounced out, Martin Keown led the Arsenal celebrations by jumping up and down around him.
4. Man United 2 Arsenal 0 October 24, 2004: A Van Nistelrooy penalty and a Wayne Rooney goal ended Arsenals unbeaten run of 49 league games in a match remembered as much for what happened off the pitch. Arsenal players clashed with United officials post-match, and a pizza slice was thrown at Sir Alex Ferguson, Uniteds manager.
5. Man United 8 Arsenal 2 August 28, 2011: A nightmarish day for Wengers side as the league champions went goal crazy against them with Wayne Rooney scoring a hat-trick, while Ashley Young netted twice. Robin van Persie scored one of Arsenals goals in what would be his last game at Old Trafford before joining United.

BAE Receives $132 M US Navy Award
- To Provide C4ISR Support for Military Operations Overseas
The award, from the Navy's Special Communications Requirements Division, is a continuation of work BAE Systems has been performing for more than 25 years. In many cases, employees deploy overseas and are embedded with Special Operations Forces or other military units to ensure their readiness. To date, about 90 BAE Systems employees have served these missions, many volunteering for multiple deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan and other locations.
Global Military Aircraft Avionics Industry 2015 Market Research Report
"After 25 years, we are proud to have the opportunity to continue providing these critical services across the globe," said Dave Herr, president of BAE Systems Support Solutions. "The strong relationship we have with our customer allows our entire team to meet and exceed the specialized C4ISR needs of the military's men and women in the field."
The three-year task order under the Seaport-e contract includes a one-year base term plus two option years. If all of the options are exercised, the total value could reach approximately $132 million. The work will be conducted at government sites around the world and managed at BAE Systems offices in Southern Maryland and Chesapeake, Va.

A complaint against a school principal for ignoring bullying
concerns has been passed to police to investigate.
The adult sister of the 11-year-old boy alleged to have
stabbed his classmate in the head with scissors during a
school fight complained to the Ministry of Education on
The stabbing occurred last Tuesday in class at Pacific
Christian School in Mangere. There was no teacher present at
the time.
The principal did not return calls again yesterday.
The 23-year-old sister alleges her little brother was bullied
for months but, because she was in a same-sex relationship,
school principal Lisita Paongo ignored her concerns.
A source close to the family told the Herald last week the
bullied boy probably just "snapped".
The sister claimed that if her concerns had been noted by the
school the "tragic incident" could have been avoided.
"I don't agree with what [my brother] did to the poor
student, but I know that if my concerns about my brother were
taken into consideration, this whole incident could have been
The ministry confirmed yesterday that her complaint had been
received and passed on to the police.
"Ministry staff had now spoken to the woman and have
forwarded her complaint on to the police to investigate,"
said Katrina Casey, ministry head of sector enablement and
"If any matters relating to this bullying complaint are
outstanding once the police investigation is complete, we
will work with the school to ensure they are appropriately
A police spokeswoman confirmed police were given the
complaint: "It has been forwarded through to the
investigation team. They will process it accordingly."
Detective Inspector Dave Lynch said yesterday that the
woman's little brother had still not been interviewed in
relation to the stabbing.
"Police and CYF specialist interviewers have completed
interviews with a number of children who witnessed the
incident," he said.

Easily removed rusted on rotors with ease. I had to return it due to collar not fitting threads, HF replaced it no questions asked and the new one worked just great. With the inside track coupon this was an outstanding deal, easily paying for itself with first use.*****For people NOT familiar with hydraulics pullers, these bad boys exert a lot of force with very, very little effort... so work safe and stay out of the direction of pull *****. I am thinking for the larger SUV's and trucks the 12 ton will fit those with ease, this one barely fits a full sized Ford, but likely will work well with the smaller cars and such. These pullers are a super deal and I would recommend this one and the 12 ton one to anybody.

I was trying to remove wheel bearings off of my Jeep Grand Cherokee and nothing was working. I saw that people were raving about how it just pops wheel bearings off so I decided to give it a shot. No luck. It just couldn't do anything against it. Granted, the Jeep has 123,000 miles on it and the bearing was really rusted on. Maybe if there was less rust it could've got it off? Who knows.2 stars because it does seem like stout tool. Just didn't work in my application.I ended up using a sledgehammer and that did the trick. Stick to the basics I guess.

Great puller!
By El Gente
from H-town
About Me Professional
Easily popped the hub off a wheel motor of a lawnmower. A regular threaded puller was useless.
Ultimate puller
By Dale
from Indiana
This is a must have puller even if you rarely need one. I got the 5 ton and it popped a stubborn pulley off like it was nothing.

Puller worked great on my axle hubs. Heavy duty and made quick work of the frozen hubs.
Perfect high strength PULLER!
By R-Dizzle
from Peachtree City, GA
Replacing front wheel bearing in my 2010 Mini Cooper, needed to get the drive axle out of the bearing assy. nothing else worked, destroyed a "3 ton" 3 leg puller from the auto parts store, this baby slid the assy. apart like it was all lubed with HOT BUTTAH! Very happy, although I was hoping to spend less, I found this WELL Worth the $$.
Quick Work of a Tough Job
By Minivanman
from Lockport, IL
Used this tool to pull a crank pulley and harmonic balancer off a V8 engine with 220,000 miles on it that I pulled from a junkyard and had been sitting in my garage for a year. The longest part of the project was putting the tool together. This tool made quick work of the project (About 5 minutes).No muscling involved. Tool does all the work for you. (Unlike manual pullers)It's a bit heavy and bulky, making you wish you had a third hand when trying to get it seated on the pulley to be pulled. Is it expensive? Compared to manual pullers, yes. Worth the money? That's up to you. More than I wanted to spend. Especially since I don't pull that many crank pulleys.The case it comes in is pointless. Once the tool is assembled, it won't fit in the case and you're not likely to disassemble it just to put it back in the case. Minor issue. Tool found a drawer in my tool chest nonetheless.
Perfect for stubborn rusted on brake rotor
By ThisSaysOtherwise
from Portage, MI
Changing the breaks on a Van thats been sitting for a while. The rotor was rusted on and would not come off. we muscled one off but took way to long to want to do it 3 more times. Using this took a couple minutes.
great stress remover
By Wild Bill
from Wilmington, DE
Restoring a '61 MGA, rear brake drums totally rusted, used 3 cans penetrating solvent tapped the drums, then beat the drums with sledge hammer nada. My wife found the product item and great reviews, went to the local store that night, wasn't sure if it opened far enough. Two days later tried it out. It took longer to assemble than to remove the drums. The drums just slid off evenly, will probably need it again when I get to the front disc brakes. This tool is incredible and good value for the money.
Works well as a brake rotor puller
By Toolman
from Chicago, IL
Used this to pull 14" diameter brake rotors off my Chevy Avalanche 1500 truck. It easily fit the rotor and had a very good grip without trying to tighten anything down. As I pumped the hydraulic jack the rotor pulled off slowlly with each compression. On the Avalanche there is a parking brake inside the rotor, sometimes called drum in hat. What causes the issue is that the parking brake is stuck in the rust, pulling off the rotor requires pulling the parking brake through the rust ring on the inside drum. I spend 6 hours with a slide hammer getting the one side off and decided to rest for the night and think about a better way for the other side. I went to Harbor Freight and picked this up and it really makes this small work. Wish I knew long ago that this would fit a truck rotor.This is a big tool, I think it would likely fit larger than 14" rotors as well. There is one larger version but it was much larger than this one. It would easily fit larger rotors but it comes at the cost of being much bigger/heavier. I opted for the smaller one because it would fit. And small is the wrong word, it is quite large.The puller grabs the rotor really well. I can loosely attach it to a rotor off the vehicle and pick up the rotor with the jaws and no added pressure/tightening. It really holds the rotor well.The tool quality is more than sufficient for removing rotors. I'm not sure about the rated capacity but it easily does the job I want it to do.The tool comes in a plastic case, nice case and it helps make it somewhat compact. I highly recommend this tool to remove brake rotors, it works really well, almost like it was made for the job.

For those who never tried TipRanks. its a really awesome Browser plugin that shows you the track record of analysts.. this way you know if you should take the analysts estimates seriously or if the analyst is mediocre.
According to TipRanks the analyst Matthew Robison from Wunderlich has a pretty awkward track record.
out of 9 outperforms ratings he gave only 1 actually outperformed the S&P 500..
another interesting metrics that opened when i read his Nokia recommendations on Barrons was that if you followed his ratings since 2009 (Buy when he said Buy and sell when yhe said Sell), you would have achieved -17.7% under the S&P.
in this case he has a Hold Rating which doesn't really mean anything... or did i get something wrong?
Sentiment: Buy
Do not trust this outfit, I have seen them in action, they typically write "hit" pieces the day before a good earnings report to keep the stock low for further accumulation for institutions that they support. Notice we have only about 17% institutional ownership which is going to increase dramatically by end of 2013.
So, don't be surprised if they come in with a downgrade on Jan 22 and try to kill a rally, this is just a heads up so no one is surprised when it happens.
These guys have zero credibility. I am long and will be for many years, don't let these hacks dupe you.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I agree..
But not all of them do, some perform pretty well..
Try Out TipRanks.. its a browser Add On that shows you their exact recommendations during the last 4 years and their performance... this is how you can distinguish between those who have interests and those that are doing a good job...
Its kind of an financial accountability engine.. and they are looking for alpha testers (friends of mine)..
their vision is give clear and transparent data to the main street.

SHANI AMAVASYA - 27th Dec 2008
Shani is the Supreme adjudicator of all the celestial planets, and immediately a day after the Shani Amavasya, i.e on 27th Dec, the Shani will transit to the Leo . this will effect Sadhe Sati, Dhaiyya and Mahadasha related impacts on people belonging to several Rashies (Moon Signs).
Each transit of Shani effects Seven signs (Rashies) simultaneously. Similarly, this time people belonging to Mesha (Aries), Kark (Cancer), Sinh (Leo), Kanya (Virgo),
(Libra), Makar (Capricorn) and Kumbh (Acquarius) signs will be effected by the transit of Shani. Sadhe Sati, Dhaiyya and Mahadasha related impacts on people belonging to these Rashies will start from 27 th Dec. Thus the Shani Amavasya is a rare opportunity to please the Shanidev a day before his transit. According to the Peethadheeshwar of the Shri Siddh Shakti Peeth Shani Dham, Shanicharanuragi Sant Shiromani Daati Madan Maharaj Rajasthaniji, prayers and Telabhishek of Shanidev on Shani Amavasya and Shani Jayanti pleases him and fulfills ones all desires and ambitions. This also emancipates one from the planetary position born difficulties and troubles. Since this transit of Shanidev is going to effect several signs, thus if the people belonging to the effect bearing signs in particular, perform the Shani Puja on this Shani Amavasya, they will be bestowed with the boundless grace of Shanidev, and the impact of Shani's transit on their sign will turn positive.
According to Daati, Shani Amavasya is also the revered occasion to please the ancestors. Prayer to Shanidev on this day fulfills ones desires and extinguishes the adverse impact of planetary positions, Dasha, Mahadasha etc. Observation of fast, recital of Strot Mantra, Tailabhishek etc. rites on this date give multiple results. Similarly, rites are also being performed for adverse impacts of planetary positions, family feuds, downfall in business-jobs etc., mental and physical ailments, delay in marriage, sorrows of quarrelsome conjugal relations etc. The Telabhishek on this particular day is a divine opportunity to change ones life altogether.
According to Daati, the divine treatises have said that the entire world is commanded by planets and Shanidev is the chief controller of them. Shani is not a malefic planet, but the Supreme adjudicator of all the celestial planets. According to Daati, the Shanidev fulfills all the desires of his devotees, so that they may not have to bear the negative impacts of planets. Shanidev is the benefactor of Karma, Dharma, fate and Moksha. Shanidev is not a malefic, but a benefic planet. Thus, one should concentrate on his or her deed (Karma), instead of cursing the Shanidev. Shanidev never does any harm to anybody out of his own. Rather Shanidev keeps a record of deeds of everybody's deeds, and delivers justice according to it. Thus the Satkarma (right deeds) can deliver the boundless grace of Shanidev and can get the favorable impact of planets. That is why one should pray the Shanidev.
Shani Amavasya is the most favorable day to please Shanidev. More so, falling just a day before a major transit of Shanidev, it bears special significance. Peethadheeshwar of the Shri Siddh Shakti Peeth Shani Dham, Shanicharanuragi Sant Shiromani Daati Madan Maharaj Rajasthaniji performs special rites on each Shani Amavasya for the benefit of the people suffering from the negative impacts of Kaal Sarp Yoga, Dhaiyya and Sadhe Saati. Lakhs of people join him on each Shani Amavasya, and seek the blessings. You too should come and bring your near and dear ones.
Sham Shanishcharaya Namah.

Those who have can't get to work (ok, that's most of us, as the bus lines spanned entire avenues on their first day running), have groceries reduced to condiments (and Egg Beaters, it was hilarious for people to pick up cartons and say "what do I do with this?), and are perilously stuck with their loved ones in shoebox-sized apartments with NYC DOE cancelled throughout the week. We're lucky to be able to communicate, see past dusk without candles/flashlights, and for updates (and being able to update our families.)
Those below 40ish Street are affected by lack of wireless voice/data, power, Internet, possibly water, and traffic jams (that I witnessed tonight, due to the mass transit reduction) that are preventing emergency services and basic services (read: food, mail such as paychecks, trash pickup (we accumulate it quickly), ambulances) from arriving. And they're unable to let you know about it.
They are, however, doing what they can, including finding all available coffee shops, office and apartment building lobbies, and bars with hospitality and a permissiveness of daisy-chained power strips for laptops and phones.
A bike ride to check up on a friend with a newborn at noon yesterday in the West Village was surreal; tonight's venture out was crowded, then tonight's walk was spooky.
sum it up nicely.
My saunter downtown (to cure family restlessness and to avoid a reenactment of The Shining) gave a sobering light to life after dark, and we were made thankful for the little things that we have (even the little apartment.)
Hope to see you all soon.

A Buffalo Bills fan arrested after he fell from the top deck of Ralph Wilson Stadium into the stands below, injuring himself and another fan, will return to Orchard Park Town Court next month for further proceedings.
Robert A. Hopkins, 29, of Buffalo, had been due in court Thursday before Town Justice Edward A. Pace, but the case was adjourned to April 10. Hopkins has added another attorney, Patrick J. Brown, who will work with Jeffrey Bochiechio, according to court officials.
Hopkins pleaded not guilty in December to third-degree assault and second-degree reckless endangerment, both misdemeanors, in the incident at the Nov. 17 Bills game against the New York Jets.
A video shows Hopkins sliding in a seated position down a railing from the 300 level of the stadium, before toppling backward and falling 20 to 25 feet into the 200 section and landing on another fan.
Hopkins hurt his shoulder, while the man he struck suffered a head and neck injury.
