Herford - Germany
Facing up to increasingly strict regulation
The presence and development of industry in and around Herford, combined with an expanding population has caused an increase in the quantity and variety of the types of wastewater needing to be treated by municipalities.
In order to comply with German and European regulations on effluent discharge, the construction of a high performance wastewater treatment plant was required.
The aim was to improve the water quality of the River Werre, without generating odour or noise nuisances.
The area for the treatment plant being located between railway lines, a road and the river, necessitated the plant fitting into a very tight space, close to built-up areas.
Thanks to new compact technological solutions, the treatment capacity of the plant reaches 300,000 PE.
The Solution
The Veolia Water Technologies technology has ensured the construction of the plant on a limited area of 7,400 m2. Very compact processes such as biofilters and lamellar settlers with ballasted flocs efficiently remove carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus containing pollution, without nuisance and respectful of stringent standards. The plant is highly reliable thanks to permanent supervision managed by sophisticated automation systems and standby equipment.
Nowadays, the River Werre is used for fishing and for supplying treatment works, dedicated to drinking water production due to the improved water quality.
Technical Details
Wastewater Treatment
Pre-treatment of wastewater
Elimination of solid matter, grease and sand :
- 20-mm screening
- wastewater lifting via pumping station
- grease and grit removal by flotation and settling
- 3-mm screening
Primary treatment :
Elimination of suspended solids and partial phosphorus removal by lamellar settling of flocs previously formed during coagulation/flocculation stage.
Secondary treatment :
Elimination of carbonaceous and nitrogenous pollution :
- By upflow biofiltration process : nitrification and denitrification biological treatment are achieved in the same cell
Elimination of suspended matter and residual phosphorus as a final polishing step :
- By high rate settling after coagulation/flocculation stage with the addition of microsand
Sludge Treatment
Mixed sludge composed of primary, biological and tertiary sludge are thickened on a dewatering table with addition of polymers, resulting in a dry solid content of 6%.
Thickened sludge is then directed to the old station, which was refurbished for sludge treatment.
Primary and tertiary sludge
- flocs precipitated at the bottom of the lamellar settler, from the primary and tertiary treatment stages.
Biological sludge
- excess biomass in Biostyr cells
- suspended matter filtered by biofilters
- flocs from biofilter wash water treatment precipitated in the lamellar settler
Air Treatment
The wastewater and sludge treatment facilities are entirely covered. Polluted air is extracted by a ventilation system and treated in scrubbing towers using the Aquilair process.
Reliable Automation
The centralised control system provides a fully automated solution that monitors and controls the process, whilst allowing manual operator control as required.
On-line monitoring of the process, using discrete instrumentation (ammonia, COD and phosphorus analysers...) enables the plant control to respond quickly and effectively to variations in pollution load.
Optimisation of the biofilters is performed by the one-line Regul-Filtre™ management system, which regulates number of biofilters in filtration to keep the ammonia load constant.

Muslim Snow Patrol – What its all about
Muslim Snow Patrol – Why we do it
The Islamic Diversity Centre (IDC) in Newcastle has called into action its self-titled 'Muslim Snow Patrol' to help clear residential roads and drives in Newcastle's West End.
After Newcastle City Council was contacted about the plans, it provided the team with gloves, shovels and grit as well as directing the team to areas most in need.
IDC director Abu Tayeb said:
"[Residents] have been really appreciative of the work that we're doing.
"They've been a bit surprised at why loads of bearded men have come and tried to help them clear their drives.
"As Muslims we believe that it is our Islamic duty to look after our neighbours, especially in these very difficult conditions.
"We're trying to remove some of those preconceptions people have about Islam and Muslims by showing that Muslims actually do good things and are trying to help our neighbours."

As green shoots and early flowers begin to appear through the last tinges of frost, Engage is beginning a new cycle of activity. In the coming months we will be sparking province-wide conversations, supporting and connecting community-based groups who are taking action, growing a provincial network of leaders and change-makers, and contributing to partnerships that lead to systems change. Coming up first—a conversation about what we think and how we feel about our province and its future.
Attitude problem? Really?
The Now or Never report concluded that as Nova Scotians we hold ourselves back with attitudes of "division, distrust and discouragement." Is that really true?
Starting this Monday, April 11, and continuing for the next month, Engage is partnering with CBC Radio's Mainstreet program to find out what we really believe. Are we as Nova Scotians willing to change? Do we like this place? Are we unified as a province? Do we agree that growing the economy is our most important goal? And who do we trust to lead the changes we need? We will be highlighting a different question each week—in a CBC blog and radio show, and on the Engage Facebook page. We will also be kicking off each segment with results from surveys we conducted over the past year.
Be ready to be surprised. Like us on Facebook and follow the conversation.
Let's Face Tomorrow Together
Come help shape the future of Amherst!
April 27, 6:00-9:00 pm
At the Amherst Regional High School
If you live, work or play in Amherst, join us for a roll-up-your-sleeves session about the issues we all care about. The six themes of this public forum are age-friendly community, business growth, retention and attraction of 18-30 year olds, revitalizing downtown, trails, recreation and active transportation and tourism growth. We will identify the actions and community champions required to tackle the challenges in each of the theme areas. Everyone is welcome even if you weren't among the 225 people who attended the first event. Co-hosted by Engage Nova Scotia and the Town of Amherst.
Workshop: Transforming Differences into Progress
April 15, 9:30-12:00, Halifax Central Library
Collaborating, working together across difference...it all sounds good. But what happens when we get stuck? Find out how to help groups recognize and move through different ways of seeing the same problem.
The medium is the message
Many thanks to all the people who gave input into our planning, including those who showed up for an online conversation on March 21, from across the province. When asked why they had joined the webinar, 75% said they were there because they wanted to find ways to "work with others who want to catalyze change" and "be connected to a provincial network of people and projects." So people are ready to get connected and get to work, and online technology gives us one more way to do that. After the call, Danny Graham was overheard saying, "If I can figure out this (online) stuff, anyone can."
You're beautiful, Nova Scotia!
Been on a road trip to your special place recently? Captured the mood of the season in your own backyard? Help us feature a different part of our beautiful province each month in our newsletter and on the Engage Facebook page. Send us your photo, let us know where it is and who took it, and we'll be happy to give you and your special place a shout-out to the Engage network. Thanks to John Sell of Halifax for this month's banner photo.

The Democratic Party is extremely misguided - they are deceiving themselves into believing that they can make up for history by voting for Obama - what a joke.
The democrats want to nominate a black so badly - Jim Crow happened, slavery happened - voting for an underqualified cocaine snorting empty suit slimy fish Obama is not going to help race relations.
If ANYTHING, Obama's campaign tactics have HURT RACE RELATIONS IN THIS COUNTRY.
Obama is not even a descendent of slaves.
Obama is simply trading off the REAL SLAVE DESCENDENTS - Obama comes from a BLACK MUSLIM SOCIALIST FAMILY.
The Democratic Party is jumping and gushing at Obama who has no experience in running anything not even a dog catching department and no economic experience except for buying cocaine -
Can anyone please explain this CLEAR DELUSION?
The democrats have not noticed yet that Obama is a Black Muslim whose father was a Socialist and Obama is probably a great deal closer to being a Socialist himself than most people imagine.

Let's Recap What We Found Out About The Real John McCain This Week:
>> He doesn't remember how many houses he owns, and even the press can't figure out if it's 7, 8, 9, 10 or 12
>> He needs a 9-car motorcade to buy a Cappuccino at Starbucks
>> He needs to look at notecards to "remember" the price of milk
>> His household budget includes $273,000 for servants
>> He thinks $5 million is the line between the middle class and the rich
>> He thinks our economy is basically sound
>> He doesn't think anyone would accept an offer to pick lettuce for $50 an hour
>> He plans to announce his running mate with balloons and cake on August 29 while the rest of the country is mourning the victims of hurricane Katrina on the third anniversary of its arrival
A real man of the people---the top 0.01%percent of them, anyway.
Is it possible the Republican party has found someone more clueless than George W. Bush? Now that's what I call finding a needle in a haystack.

If it's Biden I just wish he was at the top of the ticket. I saw Obama's half brother on CNN and if he can let a family member live like that what's in it for the rest of us. Talk about cold. Benson didn't win it for what's his name that that ran and I think I wished Benson was at the top of that ticket also. Hillary was mistreated and that was a mistake on Obama's part. No way Pumas will get on board, well some maybe. She owes him nothing and she's done more than most would do in her place - I would have pulled a disappearing act. He'll be more than second guessed if he loses for not picking her. On the bright side Biden is the best politician of all choices including Hillary and a truly decent person. Maybe Obama can learn from him. Chet Edwards and family are truly first class people as well so all is not lost unless it's the election.

It goes well beyond the Keating Five
By: Steve Benen
When considering John McCain's history of unethical behavior, the list usually starts (and ends) with the Keating Five scandal in the 1980s, for which McCain was rebuked by the Senate Ethics Committee for having shown, at a minimum, poor judgment. In the aftermath, McCain helped improve his public image, and bury the scandal, by becoming an advocate of campaign-finance reform.
But the notion that McCain cleaned up his act may not be entirely true. Take, for example, Donald Diamond, a wealthy Arizona real estate developer and generous McCain contributor, who wanted some coastal land in California freed up by an Army base closing.
When Mr. Diamond wanted to buy land at the base, Fort Ord, Mr. McCain assigned an aide who set up a meeting at the Pentagon and later stepped in again to help speed up the sale, according to people involved and a deposition Mr. Diamond gave for a related lawsuit. When he appealed to a nearby city for the right to develop other property at the former base, Mr. Diamond submitted Mr. McCain's endorsement as "a close personal friend."
Writing to officials in the city, Seaside, Calif., the senator said, "You will find him as honorable and committed as I have."
Courting local officials and potential partners, Mr. Diamond's team promised that he could "help get through some of the red tape in dealing with the Department of the Army" because Mr. Diamond "has been very active with Senator McCain," a partner said in a deposition.
For Mr. McCain, the Arizona Republican who has staked two presidential campaigns on pledges to avoid even the appearance of dispensing an official favor for a donor, Mr. Diamond is the kind of friend who can pose a test.
Ya think? The closer one looks at this, the worse it appears.
In California, the McCain aide's assistance with the Army helped Mr. Diamond complete a purchase in 1999 that he soon turned over for a $20 million profit. And Mr. McCain's letter of recommendation reinforced Mr. Diamond's selling point about his McCain connections as he pursued — and won in 2005 — a potentially much more lucrative deal to develop a resort hotel and luxury housing.
In Arizona, Mr. McCain has helped Mr. Diamond with matters as small as forwarding a complaint in a regulatory skirmish over the endangered pygmy owl, and as large as introducing legislation remapping public lands. In 1991 and 1994, Mr. McCain sponsored two laws sought by Mr. Diamond that resulted in providing him millions of dollars and thousands of acres in exchange for adding some of his properties to national parks. The Arizona senator co-sponsored a third similar bill now before the Senate. […]
For the California projects, the campaign said the McCain aide arranged the introduction to an Army official for Mr. Diamond's team as "a constituent matter."
Oh, is that what the kids are calling it these days?
McCain helped a wealthy and generous donor buy land from the Army — complete with special water rights — for a quarter of a million dollars, which McCain's buddy then sold two years later for $20 million. There's a term for this — it's called "influence peddling," and it's exactly the kind of thing McCain swears he never gets involved with.
If the Rezko story was considered a big deal by campaign reporters, the Donald Diamond issue should be huge. Why the New York Times ran this the day of the Pennsylvania primary, when it's likely to get lost in the shuffle, is a mystery to me. If this same story ran on Thursday morning, it would have become the talk of the political world in a hurry.

Private Hawaiin beaches are not cheap and accountants to hide all the slush go for over 400 per hour. and then there are those expensive piano lessons. boo hoo.

The news out of Denver will be a traditional and "safe" Obama VP pick which will provide McCain a unique opportunity. McCain can pull a Cheney and after weighing all the obvious "traditional" candidates will pick someone from his Inner Circle - CARLY FIORINA.
Fiorina meets all McCain's requirements, complements his gaps/deficiencies and helps him the most with little or no downsides:
* Strong business experience to address his economic expertise weaknesses,
* She is someone he is comfortable working with unlike the Romneys on his list,
* Since she's never been in elective office, she doesn't have all those pesky votes to explain away,
* Reinforces his argument that he is a non-traditional, maverick politician who will bring a new, bottom-line, business approach to addressing the nation's problems,
* popular in the business community,
* would create incredible buzz to counter Obama's likely "safe" choice,
* instead of helping the campaign do better in the single home state of the selectee (i.e., Pawlenty in MN), choice of a woman could give McCain a lasting couple of percentage point boost among women in many states (he could retain more of the disaffected female Clinton supporters and/or attract other women who just want to see a woman in the mix).
Seems like a winning choice to me.

Obama is gonna choose billionaire NYC mayor Bloomberg because that is his instruction from the oligarghy (international bankers and financiers) controlling the elections. Obama is their puppet. Bloomberg will privatize the US government to profit big time $$$ as planned because their wealth is going down with bad economy and currency. Bloomberg will privatize US programs, infrastructure and jobs and forsake President FDR's policies that benefits 80% of the forgotten people and Constitution.

McCain lives in a bubble where private jets, beachfront condos, mountain estates, $500 loafers, wining and dining are the NORM. And, there is nothing wrong with that if that is what you aspire to.
Pardon my yelling. And the numerous examples of McCain being clueless about this, from McCain's economic adviser Phil Gramm calling Americans whiners, to suggesting Americans are experiencing a mental recession, to the statement that the economy is fundamentally strong, to the fact he admits he doesn't know much about the economy, to the fact that he says he is not your guy if your issue is housing, to the fact that he can't remember or does not want to admit how many houses he has, to the fact that he often forgets important information on everything from the price of a gallon of gas to world geography and ethnic groups, all add up to create the TRUTH:
McCain has lived in a wealth sheltered bubble that has grown to larger and larger proportions and it has detached him from the REAL PAIN THAT MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE EXPERIENCING

In response to 37th and O on as the weekend begins:
• Theory: He knows she's got the delegates to beat him
• Theory: He's working on a counter-strategy so he can be VP to Gore, not to Clinton
Prediction: There will be no announcement until after the roll call;
The announcement will be from Hillary, not Obama;
And Obama will be the Dems' VP pick. Which is as far as he deserves to get (and many would say even that would be an unearned gift).
Guilt only goes so far. The Dems have to win.
Hillary will be the kingmaker (stage whispers by Bill).
So go out and have fun this weekend and leave the Blackberrys and cellphones at home. There will be no text message from Obama (unless it's an "S.O.S.")
That's my prediction. Have an Obamanistic weekend!

The narrative of this year's Democratic National Convention can be forecast with some assurance. It will emphasize Barack Obama's roots in Kansas more than Kenya or even Hawaii; it will portray him as a leader from a new generation eager to cast off the partisanship of the past decade; it will hail him as a symbol that America has risen above past prejudices and can once again stand proud in the world. His acceptance speech in Invesco Field will invite comparison with the other two Democratic nominees who spoke in stadiums, Franklin Roosevelt in Philadelphia's Franklin Field in 1936 and John Kennedy in the Los Angeles Coliseum in 1960.
Pretty thin. An interesting question is whether mainstream media have any appetite for undermining this undeniably attractive narrative. Of "the whole Obama narrative," one reporter told the New Republic's Gabriel Sherman, "like all stories, it's not entirely true." Obama's record of reaching across party lines is, as his own answer to Rick Warren's recent Saddleback Civil Forum question showed, pretty thin. His paper trail is surprisingly thin, too: He has left no papers from his Illinois Senate days; he hasn't listed his law firm clients or provided more than one page of medical records; the papers of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, which he chaired and in which the unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers was heavily involved, were suddenly closed to National Review's Stanley Kurtz by the Richard J. Daley Library at the University of Illinois. Mainstream media, with the conspicuous exception of ABC News's George Stephanopoulos, have shown little curiosity about Obama's connection with Ayers. It will also be interesting to see if there is much coverage of Obama's 2003 vote in Illinois against protecting infants born alive in attempted abortions, now that his campaign has conceded that the bill was virtually identical to one that passed the U.S. Senate 98 to 0 in 2001.
Obama backers dismiss attempts to undermine his narrative as distractions or as racism, beyond the bounds of reasonable discourse. Most of the mainstream media tend to agree. William Ayers is no more likely to appear at the convention than the disgraced John Edwards. But other media have a voice. Obama will probably get a nice bounce out of his convention. But it's not clear whether his narrative can be sustained in the weeks and months ahead.

The Haves, The Have Mores and John McCain
Eight years ago, then Governor George W. Bush revealingly joked about his backers at the 2000 Al Smith Dinner. "This is an impressive crowd - the haves and the have-mores," Bush said, adding, "Some people call you the elites; I call you my base." With his own quip Saturday night that "$5 million" is his definition of "rich," John McCain made no mistake that he is Bush's natural heir.
Now, there is nothing wrong with being happily rich and utterly detached. Nothing, that is, unless you make criticizing your political opponent as "elitist" and "out of touch" a centerpiece of your campaign. Rick Davis, speaking on behalf of his $100 million man John McCain, earlier this month offered the latest formulation of Barack Obama as an effete, aloof denizen of the upper class:
"Only celebrities like Barack Obama go to the gym three times a day, demand 'MET-RX chocolate roasted-peanut protein bars and bottles of a hard-to-find organic brew - Black Forest Berry Honest Tea' and worry about the price of arugula."
Of course, Davis' "arugula war" is just another attempt at misdirection. After all, John McCain's $5 million threshold where "you move from middle class to rich" is just the latest episode of his enduring disconnect from the real lives of the American people.
For starters, McCain in April declared that there had been "great progress economically" during the Bush years. On more than one occasion, he diagnosed Americans' concerns over the dismal U.S. economy as "psychological." (Phil Gramm, McCain's close friend and adviser supposedly excommunicated over his "whiners" remarks, was back with the campaign last week.) McCain, a man who owns eight homes nationwide, in March lectured Americans facing foreclosure that they ought to be "doing what is necessary -- working a second job, skipping a vacation, and managing their budgets -- to make their payments on time." And when all else fails, McCain told the people of the economically devastated regions in Martin County, Kentucky and Youngstown, Ohio, there's always eBay.
McCain's shocking tone-deafness may just be a matter of perspective. When you're as well off as he is, anything below a $5 million income (a figure exceeding that earned on average by the top 0.1% of Americans) seems middle class.
-The $100 Million Man:
Courtesy of his wife Cindy's beer distribution fortune (one her late father apparently chose not to share with her half-sister Kathleen), the McCains are worth well over $100 million. (In the two-page tax summary she eventually released to the public, Cindy McCain reported another $6 million in 2006.) The second Mrs. McCain's millions were essential in launching her husband's political career. Unsurprisingly, the Weekly Standard's Matthew Continetti, who four years ago called Theresa Heinz-Kerry a "sugar mommy," has been silent on the topic of Cindy McCain.
-The Joys of (Eight) Home Ownership:
While fellow adulterer John Edwards was pilloried for his mansion, John McCain's eight homes around the country have received little notice or criticism. His properties include a 10 acre lake-side Sedona estate, euphemistically called a "cabin" by the McCain campaign, and a home featured in Architectural Digest. The one featuring "remote control window coverings" was recently put up for sale. Still, their formidable resources did not prevent the McCains from failing to pay taxes on a tony La Jolla, California condo used by Cindy's aged aunt.
-The Anheuser-Busch Windfall:
As it turns out, the beauty of globalization is in the eye of the beholder. While John McCain apparently played a critical role in facilitating DHL's takeover of Airborne (and with it, the looming loss of 8,000 jobs in Wilmington, Ohio), Cindy McCain is set to earn a staggering multi-million dollar pay-day from the acquisition of Anheuser-Busch by the Belgian beverage giant, In Bev. As the Wall Street Journal reported in July, Mrs. McCain runs the third largest Anheuser-Busch distributorship in the nation, and owns between $2.5 and $5 million in the company's stock. Amazingly, while Missouri's politicians of both parties lined up to try to block the sale, John McCain held a fundraiser in the Show Me State even as the In Bev deal was being finalized.
-McCain's $370,000 Personal Tax Break: Earlier this year, the Center for American Progress analyzed John McCain's tax proposals. The conclusion? McCain's plan is radically more regressive than even that of President Bush, delivering 58% of its benefits to the wealthiest 1% of American taxpayers. McCain's born-again support for the Bush tax cuts for the rich has one additional bonus for Mr. Straight Talk: the McCains would save an estimated $373,000 a year.
-Paying Off $225,000 Credit Card Debt: Priceless. That massive windfall from his own tax plan will come in handy for John McCain. As was reported in June, the McCains were carrying over $225,000 in credit card debt. The American Express card - don't leave your homes without it.
-Charity Begins at Home:
The McCains are true believers in the old saying that charity begins at home:
Between 2001 and 2006, McCain contributed roughly $950,000 to [their] foundation. That accounted for all of its listed income other than for $100 that came from an anonymous donor. During that same period, the McCain foundation made contributions of roughly $1.6 million. More than $500,000 went to his kids' private schools, most of which was donated when his children were attending those institutions. So McCain apparently received major tax deductions for supporting elite schools attended by his children.
Ironically, the McCain campaign last week blasted Barack Obama for having attended a private school in Hawaii on scholarship. That attack came just weeks after John McCain held an event at his old prep school, Episcopal High, an institution where fees now top $38,000 a year.
-Private Jet Setters:
As the New York Times detailed back in April, John McCain enjoyed the use of his wife's private jet for his campaign, courtesy of election law loopholes he helped craft. Despite the controversy, McCain continued to use Cindy's corporate jet. For her part, Cindy McCain says that even with skyrocketing fuel costs, "in Arizona the only way to get around the state is by small private plane."
-Help on the Homefront:
In these tough economic times, the McCains are able to stretch their household budget. As the AP reported in April, "McCain reported paying $136,572 in wages to household employees in 2007. Aides say the McCains pay for a caretaker for a cabin in Sedona, Ariz., child care for their teenage daughter, and a personal assistant for Cindy McCain."
-Well-Heeled in $520 Shoes:
If clothes make the man, then John McCain has it made. As Huffington Post noted in July, "He has worn a pair of $520 black leather Ferragamo shoes on every recent campaign stop - from a news conference with the Dalai Lama to a supermarket visit in Bethlehem, PA." It is altogether fitting that McCain wore the golden loafers during a golf outing with President George H.W. Bush in which he rode around in cart displaying the sign, "Property of Bush #41. Hands Off."
And so it goes. John McCain proclaims $5 million finally makes you rich. Meanwhile, ABC's Charlie Gibson thinks a $200,000 income makes you middle class. And his colleague Cokie Roberts claims Barack Obama's vacation to his home state of Hawaii was "exotic."
Here's some more "Straight-Talk"...my friends:

Also, another great place for drinks and light fare is The Delmar Grill (?); I believe it's in LoDo, but I haven't been to Denver in a few years, so the details are fuzzy--plus it was 104 degrees when I was last there....Enjoy--and please try to find out who Obama's Veep choice is going to be--I hope it's Biden!!

• A Hillarian Fort Invesco Assault to Leave Obama Second-in-Command?
Bring a flak jacket; there's going to be some heavy PUMA incoming; chants of kumbayah won't provide sufficient cover. The Battle for Invesco is on, and when the smoke clears, it may be Hillary who takes the field in command.
Hang with some PUMAs; you will realize that their anger is justified and that they will be avenged.
Now Obama is trying to reduce the clout of the superdelegates in the rules committee proceedings, and his people were stupid enough to telegraph their intentions. Obama has no idea of the intensity of what's been brewing out there in the state delegations. Prepare for a Rockies revolution. All the entreaties by your buds Keith and Howard F. and Jonathan Alter, their warnings to the Hillarians that they must accede to the Obamanist Credo, or else; all that biased threat and bluster is going to be answered in a show of political force unseen in modern politics.
Among the D.C. pundits, you are among the few who have shown some independence of thought. I credit the other posters here for keeping you from being brainwashed like the others. Obama has failed to show that he's a leader. Aside from his policy vacillations and his unfulfilled rhetoric, he has revealed himself as a classic Chicago Old School pol. He's no Bill Ayres "Weatherman." He's a weatherwave. But the winds are not blowing his way. Yet the D.C. pundits refuse to lift their fingers to the wind.
The local PUMAs in Denver are quite strong; talk to them, listen to them, and don't buy into the neo-DNC party line. Obama has morphed into a Stalinesque parody of his former "change agent" self. He is going down hard in Denver. Don't look foolish by trying in your commentary to wish it away. On this one, the "base" is far ahead of your fellow chatoristas.
I'm no great fan of Fox News, but I'm glad to see you over there because they are the only ones covering the Dems with any semblance of realpolitik. MSNBC has eroded its credibility with Obama worship. It's gotten sickening. It's refreshing to finally hear someone like Rachel Maddow on their air; she realizes how Obama has snaked his core constituency, and she shows that she's no dupe.
So I hope you get out from behind the desk and embed with some key delegations to get the word from the ground. Your colleagues may end up with major egg on the face; don't let it happen to you!

In 1914, McFadden was elected as a Republican Representative to the Sixty-fourth Congress and to the nine succeeding Congresses. He served as Chairman of the United States House Committee on Banking and Currency during the Sixty-sixth through Seventy-first Congresses, or 1920-31. Though re-elected without opposition in 1932, in 1934 he lost to the Democratic nominee by 561 votes.
And not many people even know he existed !!!
Read it here : http://home.hiwaay.net/~becraft/mcfadden.html
This means that since the bankruptcy of 1933 was a fraud then HJR192 is a fraud AND ALL Gold & Silver confiscated by the banks that took over the bankruptcy MUST return ALL OF IT, AND it means that the Federal Reserve is a major Co-Conspirator to fraud AND a Co-Conspirator to Over Throw our Constitutional Form of Govt.
This has to be the Biggest Robbery in the History of Man Kind.
The Federal and Britian owe us Trillions
And we are paying income tax to them ?
The U.S. Treasury cannot be made liable for them.
The Fed currency must be redeemed by the Fed banks
or else these Fed banks must be liquidated.
Congressman McFadden
on the Federal Reserve Corporation
Remarks in Congress, 1934
McFadden said "Whereas I charge them, jointly and severally",
26 times in his speech.
He charged the Feds banks with treason
He served as treasurer of the Pennsylvania Bankers' Association in 1906 and 1907, and as president in 1914 and 1915.
He was appointed in 1914 by the agricultural societies of the State of Pennsylvania as a trustee of Pennsylvania State College.

Your Belize Dive Vacation Awaits
The Mesoamerican Reef System — often referred to as the "Jewel of the Caribbean" — is the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere and a rich tapestry of vivid corals, mangrove forests, coastal wetlands, and diverse marine wildlife. Within can be found Turneffe Atoll, the largest and most biologically diverse of the four atolls found in the Caribbean.
Stretching more than 620 miles (1000 kilometres), the reef spans the coastlines of Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, and Honduras, hosting over 500 species of fish and 65 varieties of stony coral. A number of dolphin species also call the reef their home including spotted, bottle-nosed, and rough-toothed.
One of the world's largest populations of manatees reside in the region, estimated to number anywhere from 1,000 to 1,500. The Mesoamerican Reef is home to more than 65 species of stony coral, 350 species of mollusc and more than 500 species of fish. As a result, guests staying on our Belize resort have the chance to witness some of the planet's most diverse aquatic wildlife.
Over two million people reside in the coastal communities encompassed by the Mesoamerican Reef System; the waters are therefore invaluable to local fishermen, who regularly reel in spiny lobster, shrimp, grouper, snapper, and queen conches.
The reef system shares similarities with the Great Barrier Reef. Both are considered two of the best dive sites on the planet and house a breathtaking array or wildlife and coral. Organisations are working hard in the Western and Southern Hemisphere to make sure these are protected against human activity.
Many fish from the Mesoamerican and the Great Barrier Reef are on the protected species list, so Belize snorkelling and diving affords unparalleled opportunities to view a number of rare species.

text: Had something funny happen last night. At home I charge on a UMC at 40A. No problems until last night - everything stays nice and cool etc. Last night when I plugged in there was a significant delay before the connector locked. That seemed strange but it did latch and all appeared to be good. This morning the car simply had not charged. No message on the touchscreen although it was showing 30A dialed instead of 40A. Another weird glitch from last night - when I closed the trunk at the office it lowered half way and simply stopped. I pushed it closed. First time that's ever happened. This morning I rebooted the touchscreen thinking maybe that would clear the trouble. Anyone else see this behavior before?

In this article I will explain the property in C# along with practical demonstration which will help you to understand it in a simple way.
Properties are used to get or set the value of data members of a class.
- They are used to implement data security.
- A property contains two blocks: (i) get and (ii) set. These blocks works on the basis of calling conventions.
- get and set block is implicit calling of grammar language. Property is define public normally to have get and set control.
- For each data members we have to create one property.
- In c-sharp we create indexers in place of parameterized property. (In VB you can have parameterized property).
- For static data member static properties are used.
Difference between Property and Methods
- Property is implicitly called using calling convention
- Property works on compile and runtime.
- Method is explicitly called
- Methods works on runtime.

The Gardiner Dairy Foundation and the Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal (FRRR) today announced the 31 recipients that will share $113,000 from the 2016 Working in Dairy Communities Small Grants program. The Aussie Farmers Foundation, which supports grass-roots initiatives to improve the lives of rural Australians, has contributed an additional $12,000 toward the program, while a private donor contributed a further $1,000.
Working in Dairy Communities provides grants of up to $5,000 for projects that aim to strengthen small Victorian dairy communities, build their capacity to deal with local issues and enhance existing community infrastructure. The grant recipients which come from all three Victorian dairy regions, received their cheques at a reception at the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne earlier today.
Gardiner Dairy Foundation Chairman, Dr Bruce Kefford, said that supporting dairy communities through programs like this is critical to a sustainable dairy industry.
The dairy industry makes an enormous contribution to the economic viability of regional Victoria and the Gardiner Dairy Foundation is proud to be investing in a vibrant dairy future. We have supported this program for 14 years and contributed more than $1.5 million to strengthen Victorian dairy communities in Gippsland, Northern Victoria and South West Victoria.
The Aussie Farmers Foundations Executive Director, Julia Hunter, said the current dairy crisis had triggered a wave of generosity from Foundation supporters. Were very grateful to those Australians whove pitched in to support our dairy farmers. By adding our support to the Working in Dairy Communities program, we believe we will make a real difference in local dairy farming regions during these trying times, Ms Hunter said.
FRRR Chairman, Rt Hon Ian Sinclair AC, said small grants play an important role in rural and regional Australia and they are pleased to be supporting Victorian dairy communities, particularly in light of the current industry issues.
Rural and regional communities face many challenges and experience many gaps in services and infrastructure. Small grants help to address local issues and priorities and enable community groups to implement local solutions to local problems.
The Gardiner Dairy Foundations support of communities through this program ensures the locals have control over what their community needs, Mr Sinclair said.
The Gardiner Dairy Foundations investment of $100,000 is widely and evenly distributed across Victorias three principle dairying regions. Since the launch of the annual program in 2002, the Gardiner Dairy Foundation has invested more than $1.5 million in this program, supporting 394 community projects. This year, the average community supported by a grant has 3,758 people, with the smallest community being Tatong in Northern Victoria, with just 150 people.
The 2016 grant recipients are listed below. Details of the projects they are undertaking are available on FRRRs website: http://www.frrr.org.au/cb_pages/news/Gardiner_Grant_Announcement_2016.php.

Cold-pressed olive oil, which preserves the fruity and grassy flavors of the olives. Used for dipping, dressings, and finishing, never for frying chicken breasts.
Real parmigiano reggiano, not the shit in a green can, and not the cheap store-brand imitation. Look for the dimpled, capitalized lettering on the rind that spells out "parmigiano reggiano." The flavor is nutty, creamy, salty, and slightly sharp. Eat it on your pasta. Eat it on some bread. Eat it with cured meats. Eat it with a fork.
Imported dried pasta or freshly-made noodles may seem unreasonably expensive compared to a box of Barilla, but when your goal is to appreciate the subtle nuances of wholesome, traditional ingredients, the same goes for your pasta as well.
But remember: sometimes there's just no replacing Annie's mac and cheese. Or Kraft, I guess, if you're a total sucker.
Gremolata is designed specifically to be added to a dish right before eating, often times to liven the flavor of long-cooking roasts of meat. However, the bright, pungent, acidic hit is fantastic over pasta. The traditional recipe goes as follows:
1 clove of garlic, finely minced
Handful of parsley (flat-leaf, if possible), minced
Zest of one lemon
Squeeze of juice from lemon, just to bring the mixture together
Simply mix and sprinkle over whatever needs a punch of flavor. In addition to pasta, try it over bread with some of that wonderful cheese and cured meat, or on some roasted vegetables after they've come out of the oven. The basic formula of aromatic (garlic, or even onion) + herb (parsley) + citrus (lemon, zest and juice) is incredibly flexible. Here's my short list (which I've tried and love):
garlic + thyme + lemon + orange on roasted chicken (especially good with some dark meat and a piece of crispy skin)
garlic + red onion + cilantro + lime on avocado slices with toasted bread
garlic + onion + parsley + lemon on ripe tomato slices = deconstructed bruschetta (also good on bread)
I'm bound to get all weird with this concept, so I'm sure I'll have more ideas sometime soon. Something Asian, perhaps? That sounds like it could be promising…

Anti-Mubarak protesters denounce court ruling
Egyptian security forces fire tear gas and birdshot to disperse protesting crowds, after a court drops its case against former President Hosni Mubarak. Rough Cut (no reporter narration).
ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) STORY: Egyptian police forces dispersed a demonstration in central Cairo on Saturday (November 29) evening, where protesters denounced a court decision to drop a case against former President Hosni Mubarak in connection with the deaths of 239 demonstrators in demonstrations in 2011. Forces fired tear gas and birdshot and aimed water hoses on a crowd of around a thousand demonstrators who had gathered in downtown Cairo. The protesters chanted "The people demand the downfall of the regime" and other anti-state slogans that were popular during the 2011 uprising. Earlier on Saturday an Egyptian court had dropped its case against Mubarak over the killing of protesters in the 2011 uprising that ended his 30-year rule and symbolized hopes for a new era of political openness and accountability. Mubarak, 86, was sentenced to life in prison in 2012 for conspiring to murder 239 demonstrators, sowing chaos and creating a security vacuum during the 18-day revolt, but an appeals court ordered a retrial. Many Egyptians who lived through Mubarak's rule view it as a period of autocracy and crony capitalism and considered it a victory to see him behind bars. His overthrow led to Egypt's first free election but the winner, Mohamed Mursi, was ousted last year by then-army chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, following protests against his rule.

Have Questions?
We have answers! Check our F.A.Q!
We operate programs for Juniors in small cities and towns of 20,000 plus population, primarily in Southern Ontario, including communities such as Aurora/Newmarket, Barrie, Burlington, Guelph, Maple, Markham, Oakville, Pickering, St. Catharines and Kitchener-Waterloo. We find that these smaller communities offer the younger students more suitable host families and greater integration into the community rather than does a large city like Toronto.
We also run programs in British Columbia, especially in communities in the Lower Mainland/Fraser Valley, following the same philosophy as in Ontario, and occasionally in Alberta, near Calgary.As teenagers can only come to Canada during certain periods of the year, we do not operate a year-round language school, only year-round programs.
We receive students from Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil & Japan.
Languages Canada is the premier language organization representing private language schools in Canada. This organization is recognized by the Canadian government and internationally by agents and other school associations.
Membership in this organization is limited to schools which meet and maintain rigorous standards of teaching English and French, and suitable accommodation for students of all ages.
As a member of Languages Canada, our teachers are required to have a Bachelor's of Education demonstrating expertise in teaching Juniors.
It is also helpful if they have experience teaching English as a second language or another second language.
We offer programs for five levels: Beginner, Upper Beginner, Lower Intermediate, Upper Intermediate and Advanced. At all levels, the activities selected in the class are designed to engage students in meaningful exchanges among themselves as well as with people in the English speaking community.
All Red Leaf homestay family homes are thoroughly inspected and the families receive specialized information on hosting young ESL students, who have very different needs than adult ESL students.
All adults in the home present a clean criminal record check before being accepted as a host family. Of course, each family has different daily and weekly routines. Students should expect to be included in these routines and to enjoy some family outings on the weekends.
There are older families, younger families, single parents with children, families with no children. However, all families will care for you and will speak English in the house.
You can expect a comfortable room and three nutritious meals per day. Canadian families usually wake up early, eat meals early, and go to bed early.
The temperatures in Canada vary in the summer. The Toronto area and the surrounding cities and towns can be hot and humid with temperatures over 30 degrees some days.
And Vancouver? In Vancouver and surrounding area, the summer is warm rather than hot, and the evenings are cool. Temperatures are around 25 degrees.
Sheridan College is known for its comfortable private rooms: each student has a single room in a 2-bedroom suite, with 2 students sharing bathroom.
Each student has TV and telephone in their bedroom.
This program offers an opportunity to see some of the most beautiful areas of Eastern Canada combined with daily English lessons "on the road".
The teachers are also the drivers of minivans which go in a convoy from Toronto to Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City.
Accommodations are in youth hostels, budget hotels, university residences, and include 2 or 3 nights of tent camping in a national park.
All teachers and students help with meal planning, preparation and clean-up.

At the heart of our drama course is a strong theatre industry link with the Rose – the largest producing theatre in south-west London. Kingston drama students benefit from the resources and expertise of a professional theatre and gain important industry awareness. Regular classes are scheduled in the Rose Studio, and occasional masterclasses on the main stage. Industry experts from the Rose also teach masterclasses on our third year Production Project module. Likewise, our students learn from artists based at the Rose through Director's Insight, company Q&As and behind-the-scenes events. Every Kingston drama student receives a complimentary ticket to all Rose Theatre productions – supporting their access to live performances.
Our relationship with the Rose reflects our commitment that Kingston drama students will continue to graduate with excellent employability. All single honours drama students have the opportunity to undertake volunteer placements at the theatre in their first year. These cover departments like marketing, development, producing, and front of house. Students can also shadow important technical production processes, and work on spring and autumn mini arts festivals at the theatre. Some graduates have even gone on to work full-time at the Rose!
The partnership between Kingston drama and the Rose revolves around a shared mission to bring theatre and the community closer together. Our undergraduates often choose to present their Independent Theatre Projects (ITP) publicly in the Studio. Students taking our Applied Theatre module can approach the Rose Youth Theatre for a placement, or to work on their shows. Many drama students perform at the Rose during IYAF – Kingston's International Youth Arts Festival – every July. The Studio acts as a forum for the community by hosting sharing and networking events, as well as research platforms covering topics like Women in Devising and Shakespeare. Kingston University's performing arts are celebrated in an end of year, main-house showcase – Kingston on Stage.
Our lecturers have practical and professional experience in the theatre industry, so you'll have access to practical help and career advice from people with insider knowledge. Our teaching is informed by the latest developments on the 'theatre scene'.
You'll work with guest speakers and visiting companies on specific modules. Past guests have included:
You'll also gain professional experience in the community, both through modules and our extra-curricular programme. Recent examples include:

We stayed at Disney's Boardwalk Inn for the Easter Holiday. The theme of the Boardwalk is based on Atlantic City, at the turn of the century. It's got a whimsical, carnival-like theme.
My son didn't appreciate me taking his picture on the giant chair in the lobby. Oh, well…
The Boardwalk Inn is a beautiful resort!
These chairs are just a "leetle bit" creepy, lol.
They even have a replica of Lucy the elephant from Margate, NJ.
I love this antique postcard display. Disney always has such good decorating ideas!
The rooms are very warm and cozy.
We had a water view, which gave us an awesome view of the Boardwalk.
You can watch a movie under the stars at night, play some carnival games, or be entertained by the many street performers.
And of course, you can do some shopping.
I purchased a few of the new Disney Pandora Charms. It was my Easter gift!
The Easter Bunny recruited the ladies at the shop, to prepare some Easter Baskets. They were happy to help him out.
We had dinner at the new Italian restaurant, Trattoria al Forno.
We all liked the dark and cozy atmosphere.
And the food? The portions were nice… But for the price tag, we gave it a C+. We probably won't go back anytime soon. It was ok, but nothing special.
The Tiramisu was great!
After dinner, we retired to the room to enjoy the view.
It was spectacular at night. A great chance for a little people watching before bed.
