text: A Department of Transportation program that helps supply U.S. military forces in the combat theater will continue supporting the Department of Defense and other U.S. government agencies under new contracts announced. Tthe Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration (MarAd) announced that its all-cargo fleet of fifty-four Ready Reserve Force (RRF) ships will be maintained by nine American owned and operated ship management firms under a new set of contracts that have an estimated total value of $1.9 billion over 10 years. "We have seen first hand that the Ready Reserve Force provides a vital link to the men and women of the armed services by carrying thousands of military vehicles, aircraft and other materiel to support operations in Afghanistan and Iraq," U.S. Transportation Secretary Mineta said. "This is an extremely cost effective and well-run program that keeps us prepared to rapidly respond to the military's needs." The RRF ships are kept in a high state of readiness at fifteen ports located on the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts of the United States. Some ships also are kept in a prepositioned status overseas. There have been 91 activations of Ready Reserve Force Ships since December 2002. RRF ships have carried nearly 14,927,306 square feet of cargo – about 310 football fields of materiel. Most of the new ship management contracts are built on a four year base period and include two three-year extension options that will be based on the company's performance. The management firms are responsible for keeping the ships in a constant state of readiness and getting the ships fully crewed with U.S-citizen merchant mariners when an activation call goes out. "The Ready Reserve Force has moved an extraordinary amount of cargo over the past several years and our nation's maritime industry has kept this fleet in good working order and worked diligently to show its value," Acting Maritime Administrator John Jamian said. The Ready Reserve Force was established in 1976 and was significantly strengthened after the Gulf War in 1991 in order to ensure the military's continued access to cargo capacity. Many of the ships have unique capabilities and have been used for humanitarian missions such as carrying aid to Haiti and participating in the December 2004 tsunami relief efforts. A list of contract awardees, contract values and ships under new contracts is available at https://voa.marad.dot.gov

Karting title puts Charlie's F1 dream on track
Northern Ireland has a new European karting champion after Belfast's Charlie Eastwood triumphed at the EuroMax Challenge in France last weekend.
The 18-year-old from the Four Winds area of east Belfast has had an astonishing ten months after race wins in Ireland and America, not to mention being crowned world number one in Portugal in December.
He described being crowned European champion as "pretty amazing" and a goal that he and his team have been working towards all year.
Charlie started racing at the tender age of eight and has been surrounded by the sport his whole life, with both his brother and father also racing.
Describing his family's impressive racing pedigree he said: "Our whole family has raced, I guess you could say it's in our blood."
Prior to the European championships in Salbris, France, Charlie prepared for the race by winning the Irish Karting Grand Prix, held at his home circuit at Nutts Corner.
The win going a long way to help boost the teenager's confidence before the big European race last Sunday.
Once there, the Irishman's greatest challenge came from inside his own team, Strawberry Racing. Team-mates Harry Webb and Kyle Fowlie both stood strong chances of snatching the overall victory from Eastwood, should the Aquinas Grammar School A-level student stumble at the final hurdle.
Eastwood struck an early psychological blow however by setting the fastest lap during timed-qualifying and went on to claim pole position for the first of Sunday's two finals. However, with Webb and Fowlie close behind him on the starting grid, in 4th and 6th respectively, everything had to go to plan.
Eastwood put one hand on the trophy, after taking third place in the first final of the day, but still couldn't afford to relax. Teammate Fowlie had won, and with victory came a good haul of championship points. This meant the Scot had a chance of causing a major shock should Eastwood falter in the title-deciding showdown.
Charlie kept his cool though and finished second in the final race, behind Fowlie, which was enough to secure him the title thanks to his superior points tally.
"It was very tense and competitive, but we were team-mates after all,so you needed to remain professional and focused on delivering the right result for the team, as well as for yourself," said Eastwood.
Speaking about securing yet another trophy Charlie said: "It's a great feeling. The world championship is held over just one race meeting but the Euro is a multi-round championship, so winning it shows that I can both rise to the big, single occasion events and perform consistently over a season."
Next up for the Belfast man is the finale of the British Super One championships, Charlie is currently fourth in the standings after two mechanical failures earlier in the season, all but ended his chances of claiming yet another major triumph.
Charlie hopes to move into senior car racing next year with his end goal being the hallowed asphalt of Formula One. However the level headed young man admits that this dream remains a long way off. Before Charlie moves up to car racing he will have one last chance to defend his World Championship karting crown in November in New Orleans.

CONCORD — The City Council on Tuesday will consider an ordinance requiring one-time revenues and budget surplus moneys to be used to fund specific needs, including retiree benefits and a backlog of repairs to roadways and other infrastructure.
Since February, Mayor Tim Grayson and Councilman Ron Leone, as members of the Policy Development and Internal Operations Committee, have been working with city staffers on a proposed ordinance.
While pensions, retiree medical benefits and infrastructure maintenance are the primary focus, the funds also could be used for special or one-time projects or to restore reserves.
The final ordinance will be posted online with the May 27 meeting agenda.
From fiscal year 2004 through fiscal year 2008, Concord had an average net budget surplus of $4.2 million, according to the city staff. Although the Finance Department hasn't tracked one-time funds, in fiscal year 2012 Concord received a total of $2.4 million, including $877,490 from reimbursement of a property tax administration fee and $987,294 in redevelopment funds.
"We will direct those moneys to high priorities of the council and the city, and one of those high priorities is unfunded liabilities," Grayson said. "We are coming up with a very strong plan to make sure money isn't lost in the general fund, but that every council's No. 1 priority is dealing with unfunded liabilities."
Funds from Measure Q, the half-cent sales tax increase voters approved in 2010, won't be subject to the requirements of the ordinance. Although Measure Q revenue isn't ongoing — the tax hike expires in March 2016 — the city is bound by the ballot language to use the funds to maintain core city services such as police protection, youth and senior programs.
The proposed fiscal year 2014 budget projects total revenues of $85 million — including about $29 million in regular sales tax, $11.6 million in Measure Q sales tax dollars, and $20 million from property tax. Expenditures are projected to be $81.4 million, up $2.3 million from the current fiscal year.
The budget includes $1.2 million for the full annual contribution to the City of Concord Retirement System, a closed plan for about 200 former employees hired before 1993, the year the city joined CalPERS.
But an additional $5.9 million for roadway and street sign improvements, $1.2 million for building maintenance and $1.2 million for retiree medical benefits the city should be spending each year isn't built into the 10-year financial forecast.
The draft ordinance requires the council to use one-time and budget surplus funds for the annual contributions to the City of Concord Retirement System and retiree medical benefits, the infrastructure backlog, unfunded liabilities for retiree benefits, special or one-time nonrecurring expenditure needs or to replenish the general fund reserves.
Deviating from the policy set forth in the draft ordinance would require a supermajority of the City Council, according to the draft ordinance.
In 2012, the Walnut Creek City Council adopted a "one-time money" policy that requires spending such funds on unfunded capital needs and upgrading the city's information technology systems.

Could you eat this pud? Luxurious classic Christmas dessert will cost you £10,000
YOU might not think twice before tucking into millionaire's shortbread but you better check your wallet before you try this millionaire's Christmas pudding - as it rolls in at a cool £10,000.
This Michelin star chef made a Christmas pudding worth £10,000
The ultra-indulgent festive pud was created by Great British Menu's North West regional winner Matt Worswick, 28, in his bid to celebrate Christmas with the most luxurious cake imaginable.
With 400ml of Remy Martin Louis XIII Black Pearl 140th Anniversary brandy - that retails at £14,995 per 70cl bottle - it might make you wary about driving after eating, though thankfully most of the alcohol burns off before eating.
And for the 'icing on the cake' (literally), this 'Ultimate Millionaire Christmas Pudding' is completely covered in an edible silver spray and real 23-karat gold leaf - adding another £1,200 to the bill alone.
Michelin star chef Matt from the Wirral, Merseyside, said: "Christmas is a great time of year for chefs as everyone wants to indulge in the best food, there are so many seasonal vegetables and Christmas classics that we only have at this time of year so it's great fun.
"For this cake though, I wanted to create something at the most extravagant I could and this cake is about as extreme as I could get.
"It's a real one off. This is what Christmas is all about - great Christmas puddings and despite being a staple of the festive period I don't think they are celebrated enough.
"Often Christmas puds are stodgy, heavy, and just generally rubbish so I wanted to put the effort in and do something special that would show of this great traditional pudding in a way that hadn't been seen before.
"I'm not usually one for anything extravagant like this and it is without doubt the most expensive thing I've ever made."
Matt was asked to create a Christmas pudding fit for millionaires by The National Lottery and share the recipe ahead of this weekend's draw.
The pudding takes around 10 hours of cooking - around two hours preparation time leaving eight hours to simmer.
The desert is covered in an edible silver spray and real 23-karat gold leaf

This time-consuming process also sees candied kumquats being made 24 hours in advance as they have to air dry overnight.
If it feels a bit steep, never fear, as for £10,000 you would be able to make four servings, making eat portion a mere snip at £2,500.
Matt, who is executive chef at the Wirral's Thornton Hall Hotel, believes his Christmas pudding is the most extravagant out there.
Matt said: "You would have to be very eager to really push the boat out with this pudding, it really is the most extravagant I've ever heard of and uses only the most expensive ingredients. But Christmas it the best time for this.
"I'm proud of my creation. I think it is the ultimate Christmas pudding and when it is covered in silver and gold it really looks the part too. It's definitely fit for millionaires."
Matt used £8,550-worth of the brandy to make his pud, plus £1,000 of gold leaf, £200 in silver spray, costing £9,750 before any of the other ingredients were bought.
Matt made the pudding in conjunction with The National Lottery in celebration of the Euromillions guarantee to make five UK millionaires on Friday's mega draw.
Full ingredient list to make four servings: 400ml of xo brandy 450g beef suet 335g breadcrumbs 335g dark brown sugar 450g currants 450g golden sultanas 450g raisins 225g chopped almonds 8 prunes 100g dates 1 carrot grated 1 large bramley apple grated pinch of table salt 1 tsp mixed spiced 1 tsp nutmeg 1 lemon zest and juice 1 orange zest and juice 8 kumquats 2 ltr water 2 kg demerra sugar 3 cloves 2 star anis 1 cinnamon stick 1 tin silver spray 1 packet real gold leaf The full recipe is: For the Christmas pudding Butter four small ramekin moulds, mix all the above ingredients well, fill the mould half way up with the pudding mix, add one kumquat per mould then cover and bury the kumquat with the rest of the pudding mix.
The moulds should be 3/4 full, cover the tops with baking paper, cover the mould again with tin foil and wrap with string. Place the bowl in simmering water just enough to reach 3/4 up the side of the mould. Simmer for 8 hours.
For the candied kumquat Blanch the kumquats in water for three minutes then refresh in cold water, repeat this process five times until the kumquats are soft.
Mix water, demerara sugar, and spices and boil, add the refreshed kumquats and simmer until for approx 25 minutes.

A Concept Note
16 days of Activism against Gender Based Violence
25th November – 10th December 2016
"Ensure Justice and Eliminate Discrimination by Addressing Structural Inequalities in Order to Make Education Safe for All"
For 25 years, women's organizations and activists worldwide have been celebrating 16 Days of Activism which has provided a global platform to advocate for women's rights. The 25th November was chosen as an International Day that called to end Violence against Women, to commemorate the death of three Mirabel sisters, Patria, Maria and Antonia, who were detained, tortured and assassinated an acts of discriminatory, gender-based, political violence in 1960 during the dictatorship of Trujillo in the Dominic Republic.
This year, violence and the lack of safety that pervades and inhibits young women's education is the international theme of the 16 Days of Activism campaign for 2016:"From Peace in the Home to Peace in the World: Make Education Safe for All". Education, which is one of various fundamental elements required to live dignified life, is a human right, and can give women greater independence and opportunities. The state is obliged to create a safe environment for women to learn, free from discrimination and violence. However currently in Nepal, structural inequalities that exist in the form of discriminatory laws and policies, as well as patriarchal attitudes and deep-rooted stereotypes that remain entrenched in the social, cultural, and religious structures of Nepalese society affects women's education. Guided by this reality, this year WOREC will campaign during 16 Days of Activism under the theme of "Address Structural Inequalities to Make Education Safe for All", and will be organizing programs from community to national levels to acknowledge the achievements of the women's movement, and call on individuals, communities, the media and government to continue the fight against structural inequalities in society that lead to discrimination and VAW.
WOREC pioneers survivor-lead programs, and facilitates the empowerment process of women by creating an environment for them to understand root causes that are responsible for their oppression. For the last 25 years WOREC has been working together with women, men and other community members from grassroots to national levels. Programs are run that facilitate the involvement of community based organizations and self representative survivors led groups; classes are taught on legal education, reproductive health, and the creation of sustainable models for livelihood opportunities. Safe spaces for women and adolescents are provided during periods of difficult times, which are equipped with essential counseling, psycho-social, legal and educational support are some of the many examples. WOREC's team would like to take the opportunity during 16 Days of Activism to use the programs they have implemented and developed at a community level to amplify voices of active community women to make women's oppression and work visible, and advocate for women's to be treated equally in accordance with their inherent rights.
The dropout rate of girls from education still remains too high: and whilst lack of toilets in schools has been cited as a key reason[1], WOREC's experience shows this is one among various realities for women. WOREC's experiences shows that the wider discrimination faced by women, including their unequal treatment, the way their bodies and sexuality are perceived in society, and the existence of unsafe environment where women do not feel empowered or safe is the key reason for girls dropping out from education. Violence against women, which happens primarily due to this discriminatory attitude which is nurtured through patriarchal environments, is the key cause of lower literacy and dropout rates of girls from school. UNESCO estimated in 2016[2] a female literacy rate of 55.11% in Nepal (over 20% behind male literacy rate), and found that girl youths have a lower literacy rate than boys (87.4% compared to 92.6%). Violence against Women continues to exist in direct contradiction to women's rights to live a life free from violence, and worryingly a large percentage of violence affects girls. There are increasing numbers of VAW cases in family and public spaces, and despite child marriage as a form of violence being illegal, 37% of girls are married before 18[3]. In 2016, WOREC documented 43% of rape cases against girls under 16. This affects girl's right to education, as rape leaves numerous psychological scars and currently there is no comprehensive policy to facilitate education for women and girls survivors of violence in safe houses. Anbeshi[4] documents cases of VAW and in 2015; data showed that 52.2% of rape survivors were girls under 18, with 38% of those being students. Overall 29.3% students suffered sexual violence. The experiences of violence have far-reaching consequences, with 52% VAW survivors reporting adverse effects on their mental health. Health problems caused by gender based violence also prevents girls from being able to enjoy a safe education. Sexual violence, rape, domestic violence and dowry related torture perpetrated against girls of school ages can leave deep psychological scars, leading to depression among many women and girls that can result in suicide. Anbeshi data showed in 2014 that 1.2% suicides of women were due to sexual violence, with women and girls between the ages of 16-25 being the most at risk of committing suicide. This should not be tolerated. Women are trapped inside a tight sphere of social regulations and are driven to suicide by their secondary status within families and communities. Women are restricted from accessing healthcare services, as society place little importance on women's health issues, which increases the likelihood of mental health problems, and even suicide. Education is fundamental to ensuring good mental and physical health of all children, and health services must be provided in schools including counseling and psychotherapy.
Women are barred from receiving substantive justice as a result of patriarchal structures and practices. Justice ensures dignity, safety and self-worth, however the current definition of justice is limited to legal justice alone, which for women is inadequate. In 2014, Forum for Women, Law and Development documented only 22 cases where traffickers had been prosecuted, and in 7 of these cases, women received no compensation[5]. In some cases women receive justice in a legal sense, when they gain custody of their children after a divorce for example, but in reality this justice is compromised as women are often rejected by their communities as a consequence. In this way, Violence against Women remains undocumented and unpunished, and women rarely feel that they have fully received justice. With greater education for all, marginalized groups will understand and rely upon their legal rights to equality, and social perceptions will change when they see that all groups regardless of caste or gender benefit society.
The exposure to violence limits a woman's ability to earn an independent living and participate in the public sphere. Discriminatory legislation bars women from owning productive resources, from working freely and being a part of the labour force – all of which are necessary to give them economic independence. According to the ILO, females comprise of 52% population, but own only 20% land, and girls receive less schooling than boys which limits the types of jobs that women can take both domestically and abroad[6]. Legislation that places age restriction bans on the migration of women, and the government's discussion of women's mobility in patriarchal and protectionist terms, has forced women to migrate clandestinely in order to find work. Because of this, a large number of migrant workers vulnerability to various forms of exploitation, forced labour and abuse. Women are ignored in the effort to rebuild following the earthquake, and with their homes and livelihoods lost, they are place in a vulnerable position that increases the likelihood of their trafficking and further violence. Furthermore, whilst women occupy positions as the Chairperson of Parliament, President and Chief Justice of Nepal, there is still an extremely low representation of women, in particular Dalit and indigenous women, in high-level decision-making positions which are needed to ensure equality. The Annual Household Survey 2012/13 showed that whilst 75% of women are in the labour force, 60% work in agriculture and only 0.7% hold public sector jobs[7]. Structural transformation is needed to make women's participation equal in reality, and Safe Education for All must become the reality, not just a mere slogan.
The data above clearly demonstrates that the efforts of the government so far are inadequate to ensuring women's rights to live without violence and discrimination, and consequently are failing to ensure the safe education of all. This is contrary to the government's obligations enshrined in International Law, the Sustainable Development Goals, and the Convention to Eliminate all form of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). WOREC calls on the government to rectify this. SDG 1 calls for the elimination of poverty, and cites the social discrimination present in education and in women's participation in decision making as factors that perpetuate poverty. SDG 4 calls to ensure equal and inclusive education to promote lifelong learning opportunities for all; striving to end discriminatory practices in educational opportunities. SDG 5 emphasizes gender equality where women and girls must be provided with equal access to education, healthcare, decent work, and representation in political and economic decision making. SDG 8 requires governments to promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth with full and productive employment and opportunities for all. SDG 16 calls for governments to promote peaceful and inclusive societies, access to justice for all, and accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels. Violence against Women inhibits social and economic development, as half of the potential workforce are ignored and undervalued, therefore we as a society must "Ensure Justice and Eliminate Discrimination by Addressing Structural Inequalities", which will also ensure that "Education is Made Safe for All". WOREC will monitor these changes in the coming year, to ensure that women are provided with equal rights to live without violence.
The main objective of 16 Days of Activism 2016 is to Address Structural Inequalities to Make Education Safe for All, so that women can live dignified lives in society without discrimination or violence. The following will be the specific objectives:
- To create awareness and widen knowledge on VAW by sharing finding of Anbeshi.
- To initiate solidarity across local communities and civil society to fight against the discrimination of women by transforming harmful practices of women as subservient and encouraging education for all girls
- To exert pressure for political commitment to end violence and discrimination of women and draw the government's attention to ensure it fulfills its obligations to ensure gender equality, following to national and international commitments.
- To advocate for the recognition, safety and security of Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs)
Expected Outcomes:
- The annual report "Anbeshi" will be launched along with analysis of violence against women in the past year, and mass sensitization of the general public, media and government about issues of VAW will occur, particularly of GBV, SRH, and mental health of women.
- People will see how community engagement with survivor-led programs combats VAW.
- Women Human Right Defenders from community level to National level will commit to come together to end violence against women.
- Issues of WHRDs' identity, safety and security will be prioritized to establish an especial mechanism for their safety by all the concerned stakeholders.

Bodybuilding Christian Swingers From Florida Start Spouse-Swapping Website
September 29, 2014
Love thy neighbor as yourself. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Do not covet thy neighbor's ass. These are the ethical foundations of any good swinger's lifestyle.
If you like Jesus, pumping iron and pumping/getting pumped by acquaintances bound by holy matrimony, there's a website just for you.
It's called Fitness Swingers, and it's the brainchild of Cristy Parave and her husband, Dean, who dreamed up the site after reportedly having a threesome with this wife and her female friend. Apparently, the sex was just heavenly.
The Florida couple, who met at a bodybuilding competition, are interested in sharing their beliefs and their spouses with others who feel similarly. They started their online network 7 years ago, and haven't looked back. The pillars of their relationship: A commitment to their faith, to fitness, and to the ideals of the swinger lifestyle.
Dean Parave told Barcroft Media that he doesn't think that his swinger lifestyle conflicts with his Christian beliefs. In fact, he considers it a kind of ministry.
"So far today, God hasn't told me, 'Dean stop that, it's a sin. I don't want you to do that.' Until he does that, I'm going to keep trying to help as many people as I can," he told Barcroft.
Christy said she needed a little convincing that it was moral at first, but now she's totally convinced that god is on their side.
"God put people on the Earth to breed and enjoy each other," she told Barcroft. "I feel God is always with me and he has put us here for a reason."
Their daughter told the outlet that she thinks that helping run her parents' website is definitely "different."

boner-buzz kill: Chlamydia rates are at an all-time high in the United States, says a new report from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention.
Almost 1.5 million cases of chlamydia were reported in 2012—that's the largest number the CDC has ever received for anycondition. (To put that in perspective: 196,038 men in the U.S. were diagnosed with prostate cancer—the most common cancer among men—in 2010.)
And while female counts make up the majority of chlamydia cases, syphilis rates in men have jumped 11 percent from 2011 to 2012, while new gonorrhea cases increased by 4 percent—both spikes due to increases in male reports.
All three of these infections are treatable with antibiotics, yes. But your best defense is to rock a rubber, get tested yearly if you are sexually active, and know which symptoms to look out for:
Chlamydia is often known as a silent infection because most people have no symptoms, according to the CDC. If signs do appear, they'll come in the form of a burning sensation when urinating, or an abnormal discharge from the penis.
Gonorrhea usually catches your attention within the first 10 to 14 days after infection. Common symptoms include discomfort during urination, or a white, yellow, or green discharge from the penis.
Syphilis comes in three stages. First, in the primary stage, symptoms consist of an ulcer or sore at the infection site. The secondary stage appears as a rash that may look like "copper penny" spots or fine red dots on your palms or the soles of your feet. Other symptoms of secondary syphilis: a sore throat, sores in your throat, and fever. The latent (hidden) stage takes place when primary and secondary symptoms disappear. Without treatment, it can eventually lead to severe and fatal complications.

text: Marc Parry: "Colleges share many things on Twitter, but one topic can be risky to broach: the reading habits of library patrons. Harvard librarians learned that lesson when they set up Twitter feeds broadcasting titles of books being checked out from campus libraries. It seemed harmless enougha typical tweet read, "Reconstructing American Law by Bruce A. Ackerman," with a link to the book's library catalog entry – but the social-media experiment turned out to be more provocative than library staffers imagined. Harvard suspended the practice after privacy concerns were raised. Even though the Twitter stream randomized checkout times and did not disclose patrons' identities, the worry was that someone might somehow use other details to identify the borrowers. The episode points to an emerging tension as libraries embrace digital services. Historically, libraries have been staunch defenders of patrons' privacy. Yet to embrace many aspects of the modern Internet, which has grown more social and personalized, libraries will need to "tap into and encourage increased flows of personal information from their patrons," says the privacy-and-social-media scholar Michael Zimmer."

What exactly is MIPS?
How does MIPS actually work?
With either of these impact scenarios, a helmet equipped with MIPS technology allows the helmet's outer shell to slide relative to where you hit your head is impacted. By doing so, the rotational force is now decreased as the shell absorbed some of the impact, reducing the potential damage to your brain. The less impact energy that is transferred to your brain, the more protection from serious injury you have the potential to receive.
We are proud to carry a variety of helmets that feature the MIPS technology. Come into any of our six retail locations and try one on today. Our expert staff will be glad to answer any questions you may have and help you find the perfect fitting helmet. If you are not local, have no fear- our online shop is open 24/7 and our expert team is standing by to assist you with all your skiing and snowboarding needs.

On March 17, 2015, Sri Mannie Maharaj of Stanger passed away. At a crucial time, he took on the role of Regional Director for the North Coast Region of the Hindi Shiksha Sangh. At that time, nobody was willing to continue to steer the "Sangh Ship" in the direction the Sangh would want it to move.
He believed that it's easy to make excuses, place blame on others, or argue that circumstances are not suitable. He heeded the call of the Sangh as an opportunity to help, to interact, to share, to meet and to promote Hindi. Endowed with these qualities, he demanded that one must be disciplined. Yes, we must have tons of it. One must feel the sense of belonging to the Sangh and not to find excuses to attend to the tasks that needed attention. With such glowing qualities he took on the cudgels and forged ahead in bringing peace and understanding in the community in placing Hindi first. He rallied around families, children, teachers and well-wishers to join him and restore the former glory of the North Coast Region. What we see today in the North Coast, is a reflection of Mannie's selfless, dedicated and commitment to his work.
The Hindi Shiksha Sangh expresses its sincere condolences to his dear wife, his family and to his "larger family" of Hindi Schools.

Crazy KFC battles deluxe
Rated 0 / 5 stars
So i wasn't going to say anything but i noticed down below you would like to be critiqued so first off i have refreshed because the game simply stopped dropping any more faces after i pressed left, i refreshed and now i'm staring at a blank screen, from what i saw of the game it looks very simple which there is nothing wrong with simple but this is honestly nothing, it looks like a 3rd grade kids crappy collage, as stated below there is no scoring system or challenge to it, how do you expect anyone to play this without a reason to play? and now lastly the title, which is a big part of any game and marketing it, you seem to have taken the new cool kid route of naming it something it's not, it's not crazy, there are no battles, and in order for this to be a deluxe version would there not have to be a regular version, the reason you created this was to be shocking, and it simply wasn't, nor was it funny in any way, it was sad...
Thanks for the review! However I think I deserved more than a 0. There are battles, you haven't gotten far enough!
Infectonator : World Dom
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
This had potential...
I'm sorry the game started off awesome, i loved every second of it until i got past the 3rd town in africa, then from that point on every click of the mouse would make the game lag and then it would go to the news report screen saying there were no casualties (when i finally made it to the middle east all i could do was get one person at max) and it was not from lack of trying, i would click to infect the game would almost freeze and the only people that would be infected were the ones who were literally right underneath my mouse pointer the other shots that went out simply vanished as well as 50% of the people who were on the screen before i clicked also adding to the difficulty of getting at least more then 6 zombies on any level now
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
it was an amazing at view at fights or wars and all that, and eventually after going through both sides enough times, you begin to see the gray area in between and how everything is not white or black, it was amazing, this is video game art more so i think then a game made specifically to just entertain the part of brain that like bright colors and explosions
Neverending Light
Rated 5 / 5 stars
this was very impressive
and imaginitive, if i had been playing this in the dark
would have taken me twice as long

You Need An Attorney With Experience
If you have been charged with a crime, you need an attorney who has the experience necessary to protect your legal rights, aggressively defend your case and take steps to get the charges against you dismissed or reduced in severity. Better yet, you need an attorney who has years of experience as both a defense attorney and a criminal proscutor.
At the Law Office of Gary Michael Gabry, we have 38 years of Michigan courtroom experience. Over the course of his career, Gary Gabry has represented clients in hundreds of jury trials throughout the state. With 24 years of experience in criminal prosecution and 14 years (and counting) experience as a defense attorney, Gary Gabry is the go-to attorney for people charged with criminal offenses in Kalamazoo, Portage and the greater southwestern Michigan area.

The New England Patriots have never been afraid to use the trade bock as a way to build their team. Here's a squad that just recently dealt for Indianapolis Colts tight end Dwayne Allen.
Prior to that, New England moved starting defensive players Chandler Jones and Jamie Collins in separate deals over the past calendar year.
But this one particular trade should be considered a pretty big surprise. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, New England has acquired defensive end Kony Ealy from the Carolina Panthers.
Carolina trading DE Kony Ealy and a third-round pick to Patriots in exchange for New England's second-round pick, league sources tell ESPN.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 10, 2017
The deal involves Carolina moving up less than 10 spots on Day 2 of the upcoming 2017 NFL Draft. That's a pretty small price for the Patriots to pay.
Ealy, 25, was a second-round pick of the Panthers back in 2014. He's coming off a 2016 campaign that saw him record 32 tackles, five sacks and two forced fumbles. The Missouri product made a name for himself in Super Bowl 50 when he sacked then Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning three times.
Ealy was made expendable on Friday when Carolina signed future Hall of Fame pass rusher Julius Peppers.


text: Hi all, I am having trouble finding a VIN number on my trailer and I was wondering of somebody could give me some advice. I have had this trailer for four years and used it very little. When I needed to haul something with it, I just attached the plates from my other trailer. Now I am thinking about using it more for my lawn service and without the VIN, I am not sure how to go about getting plates for it. I was told it is a Forest River trailer, although I have no way of knowing for sure (bought it secondhand). I have looked everywhere for a stamped number, even turning the trailer on it's side and looking underneath. So how would y'all go about getting this thing registered? I live in Texas. Thanks!

Alex ja Armottomat (Alex) visited my recording studio in February. We had five days total to do a fully mastered CD, make promo photos of the band, and record live video footage in the studio for later editing. I'll describe here how one of the six songs was recorded and mixed.
Drums, bass and the electric guitar were recorded live with one to three takes. Acoustic guitar and demo vocals were recorded, too, but they were re-recorded later over the backing tracks. The drummer was the only one to hear the metronome (standard SONAR audio metronome, time signature set to 1/4); the others had eye contact with the drummer. Although the guitar amp was in another room (the bass was recorded direct), there was no spill other than a faint demo vocal in the drum room mics.
Time is always an enemy when you have to record many songs in a limited amount of time. I decided to make decisions before pressing the R (record) button rather than leaving everything to the mixing phase. I applied EQ to kick drum, drum room and the acoustic guitar before A/D conversion. One of the phrases I hate is: "This sounds like crap now but it hasn't been mixed yet." Some people really think that everything can be fixed in the mix! (Although to be fair you often can, because in SONAR we have VocalSync, built-in Melodyne, built-in drum trigger, and AudioSnap).
And although it sounds incredible, now it's even possible to upload songs from SONAR to the LANDR online mastering service and instantly hear a preview of how the song would sound as mastered. Hearing the demo master may help you to improve the project's mix. Continue reading panup: Studio Session & LANDR Test

Obama-Harper Summit: Why Did it Take So Long?
Harper was invited to the White House today for a bilateral meeting this week to let the public know what officials have known for months -- the extent and scope of efficient border management. It shouldn't have taken so long to make this announcement of what will be, after all, a to-do list and not a litany of accomplishments.

Helmets can help prevent serious injury or death. Jason, Jenna, and Jeff learned the hard way.
When Jason was 12, he was a pitcher on the All Star Little League team and played competitive soccer. He was also an honor student. Jason loved to ride his bike, but he didn't like to wear his bike helmet. One Saturday afternoon, to avoid a confrontation with his mom over wearing a helmet, Jason rode out of the yard with his helmet on. But when he was a few blocks away, he took it off and put it in his backpack.
Shortly afterward, Jason was hit by a van. The shaken driver called an ambulance, and within minutes Jason, unconscious, was speeding toward Valley Memorial Hospital. Jason went into a coma and suffered traumatic braininjury because he hadn't been wearing a bike helmet.
Jason is now 16. It's been four years since his accident, and he has made an amazing recovery, but he's not the same as he was. "I am a different person since the accident," says Jason. "I will never pitch again because my left [pitching] arm doesn't work. I can't play soccer because my speed and balance are impaired. I have to attend special education classes because my brain is now too slow to keep up with regular classes, and I will never be able to drive a car or ride a bicycle. I still have to go through painful physiotherapy sessions every week."
Jenna, 14, loves to snowboard. She's a great athlete and a real risk-taker. Last winter while doing a 180-degree turn, she lost control and came down hard on her head and neck. She was knocked unconscious for a couple of minutes. When she came to, she had a headache and slight tingling in her right arm and fingers. A member of the ski patrol checked her out at her friends' insistence, and he recommended she go to the local hospital for a thorough checkup.
At the hospital, Jenna had an MRI and was "chilled" by the words of the physician who attended to her. She said, "You are extremely lucky, Jenna. You have only a slight concussion, but if you had fallen about a half an inch over to the right, you would have severed your spinal column and would never have been able to walk again." Since that day, Jenna wears a helmet when she snowboards.
Jeff, 16, loves, in-line skating; he's been doing it since he was 10. Every day after school he heads out with his friends to skate around the city. He loves the feeling of freedom being on skates gives him. It's also a great way to spend time with his buddies.
Jeff learned about the importance of wearing a helmet the hard way. His good friend, Devon, died at age 12 when he caught his skate in a sewer grate, flipped over, hit his head, and ended up with a cerebral hemorrhage.
Since Devon's death, Jeff wears a helmet he bought at the local sports shop. He did a lot of reading about the safety features of various helmets and decided on one that met his needs, looked cool, and felt good on his head.
If you enjoy cycling, in-line skating, or snowboarding, here are some important safety tips about helmets:
* Wear a helmet every time.
* The helmet should be worn low and level on your head, and the chinstrap should be snapped and fit securely.
* All bike helmets now made in or imported to the United States must meet the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) safety standards.
* If you hit your head in a crash, throw away the helmet worn during the crash and purchase a new one. While the outer shall of the helmet may Still be intact, the inside cushion may be damaged and will not provide enough protection to prevent future head injuries.
Getting In-line
The most common cause of in-line skating falls, according to the International In-Line Skating Association, are due to hazardous road conditions such as potholes, sewer grates, or unexpected conditions such as hills and heavy traffic. Wearing the proper protective equipment can help prevent injuries.
Follow these safety tips from the Massachusetts Governor's Highway Safety Bureau:
* Always wear a helmet whenever you skate.
* Check your skates before each use. Tighten wiggly wheels, adjust or replace worn brake pads, and clean or replace bearings when you hear a wheel grinding.
* Skate in control.
* Skate on the right, pass on the left.
* Don't wear headphones; they prevent you from hearing the traffic around you.
* Avoid skating through sand, oil, water, and road debris, and over sewer drains.
For more information on inline skating and how to prevent injuries, check out the International In-Line Skating Association (lISA) Web site at www.iisa.org.
What You Can Do
Take action on helmet use. Here's a list of suggestions to get you started:
1. Organize a head injury safety week at your school. Get ideas from the National Youth Sports Safety Foundation Web site at www.nyssf.org.
2. Invite a well-known sports figure who wears a helmet for his or her sport to speak about head injuries and helmet use at a school assembly.
3. Negotiate with a helmet supplier so that a percentage of each helmet sold locally goes to your school's activity fund.
4. Collect stories from your friends and classmates about people they know who have suffered sports-related headinjuries.
5. Ask classmates or friends who don't wear helmets when doing sports why they don't, and note these on a flipchart. Ask those same friends what it would take for them to change their behavior and begin wearing helmets while cycling, skateboarding, and snowboarding. Offer to write the results of your investigation in the school paper.
You may or may not know a Jeff, Jason, or Jenna. If not, it's only a matter of time. Head injuries due to recreational sports are on the increase among U.S. teens. Most of these injuries may be prevented by the simple act of wearing a well-fitting helmet. What will you do, if anything, to improve the statistics?
1. Why do you think that so many young people resist wearing protective headgear? (Answers should include recognition that young people see themselves as invincible.)
2. How much of a problem is the issue of head and neck injury? In what ways could this issue affect you and your friends, considering your lifestyles and activities? Assign students to groups to do research on the subject (see Web sites suggested below). When groups have completed their research, have them find creative ways to present the results to motivate people toward the use of protective headgear. (Remind them to think of the answers to question #1.)
a) www.cdc.gov/epo/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/ss4905al.htm–You will find an article on the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System. Students can look at head injury-related behaviors–perhaps even find data related to their state in the most recent YRBS completed in May 1999.
b) www.cpsc.gov (U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission)–Assign students to outline exactly what the criteria are for safe, protective headgear products and for their use, and then find a way to communicate this–perhaps in a slide show, a Power Point presentation, or posters.
c) www.thinhfirst.org. (the National Brain and Spinal Cord Injury Prevention Program)–Find out if there is a local or state chapter of Think First in your area. They locate speakers who can attest firsthand to the problems associated with brain and spinal cord injuries. Their message is prevention. Have students plan a classroom presentation or obtain administrative permission for an assembly.
Tips for bikers Choosing and Using a Safe Helmet
Dr. Frederick Rivara, physician-researcher and director of the Harborview injury Prevention and Research Centre in Seattle, has spent the last 15 years persuading Americans to wear bike helmets. Rivara's latest study shows that wearing a bike helmet is not enough. "In a study of 3,400 riders, people wearing helmets that didn't fit correctly (by their own accounts) were twice as likely to suffer head injuries as cyclists with a proper fit."
A helmet that fits properly, according to Randy Swart, director of the Bicycle Helmet Safety Institute in Arlington, Virginia, should:
* comfortably touch the head all the way around
* sit level on your head, stay in place, and be able to resist hard blows or violent shakes to the head
* be fastened snugly by the chin strap to prevent the helmet from rocking back and forth. It also shouldn't pinch your chin.
Keep the foam pads that come with new helmets. They allow for a more customized fit, particularly at the sides of the head, as your head grows or as you change your hairstyle. For additional information, check out www.helmets.org.
Did You Know?
* More than 750,000 Americans each year report injuries received during recreational sports, with 82,000 involving brain injuries. Brain injuries cause more deaths than any other sports injury.
* About 130,000 children a year go to hospital emergency rooms with head injuries suffered in bike crashes.
* Bike helmets can reduce the risk of head injury by 85 percent.
* About 60 percent of all bike-related deaths involve head injuries.

YAMAGATA, Japan — Another fire broke out at a nuclear reactor early Wednesday morning in Japan. It is the latest setback in a series of disasters that have stricken the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant.
Large amounts of radiation leaked into the air after a third reactor exploded and a fourth caught fire the day before, deepening the country's crisis in the wake of a huge earthquake and deadly tsumami.
Late Tuesday, the government said radiation levels had fallen again, somewhat quelling fears. It remains unclear if the new blaze will cause more radiation to spread.
Prime Minister Naoto Kan earlier said that radiation was spreading from four reactors at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant, 150 miles north of Tokyo. A 15-mile exclusion zone was enforced around the plant as engineers battled to bring overheating reactors under control.
"The level seems very high, and there is still a very high risk of more radiation coming out," Kan said in a nationally televised statement, according to The Associated Press. "We are making utmost efforts to prevent further explosions and radiation leaks."
Meanwhile, continuing aftershocks, some of which have registered as high as 6.0-magnitude, have kept the Japanese on edge.
"I'm really scared. The earthquake on Friday really shook everything here, and nobody knows what's going to happen at Fukushima," said a young man working in a clothes shop in Yamagata City, which is in Yamagata Prefecture, one of the worst-hit areas.
"The aftershocks just keep coming. I've had enough," he said.
Yamagata City is located just over the mountains from Sendai, which is in Miyagi Prefecture in northeastern Japan. Sendai was the largest city near the quake's epicenter.
A shell-shocked population becomes more skittish with every tremor, persistent rumbling that would, under normal circumstances, barely register with the northeast's quake-hardened people.
A restaurant in the center of Yamagata city was empty save for two customers today. The waitress said people were scared to leave their homes because of the quake and the fear of radiation, which has been detected as far away as Vladivostock in Russia.
In Yamagata, a sports center is being prepared for evacuees from around the Fukushima plant, even as snow fell heavily Tuesday evening and the city prepared for power outages that authorities said would begin Wednesday.
Despite the difficult situation, however, people here have remained civil.
At long lines for rationed gasoline and limited foodstuffs across the region, there was no jostling for better positions and no arguments.
At a small family-run hotel in the port town of Hitachi, its harbor destroyed, refugees from the devastated areas to the north arrived late into the night Tuesday.
Weary customers who would have likely paid any price for a dry place to lay their head, were given discounts for the lack of running water and the owner's apologized profusely for the lack of running water.
Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) said it had safely disabled the four reactors in Fukushima, though problems of overheating remain.
The announcement, however, failed to calm fears here. As most here are aware, TEPCO has a history of coverups, including an episode after a quake near the world's largest power plant, Kashiwazaki-Kariwa, in 2007. After disaster was averted there, the company faced criticism for building a nuclear facility almost directly over a fault line, and then deliberately played-down the severity of the situation when it was damaged.
Japanese authorities told people living within 20 miles of the FukuShima plant to stay indoors with windows closed and air conditioners off. A senior Japanese official warned that the radiation levels were now high enough to pose a medical risk.
"Now we are talking about levels that can impact human health," Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said, according to reports.
The plant's operator, Tokyo Electric Power, told the BBC that radiation levels around Fukushima for one hour's exposure rose to eight times the legal limit for exposure in a year.
Read this GlobalPost interview with nuclear expert Arnold Gundersen on the health risks in Japan.
A statement posted on Facebook by the commander of U.S. Naval forces in Japan said that instruments on the USS George Washington, which is docked for maintenance in Yokusuka, south of Tokyo, were picking up low levels of radiation. The statement advised Navy personnel to limit outdoor activities and secure ventilation systems.
The latest explosion was thought to be at the No. 2 reactor of the plant, and the fire at the No. 4 reactor, which had been not operational but was storing spent nuclear fuel. The fourth reactor was thought to have caused the increased radiation because of the hydrogen release that caused the fire.
Edano said the fourth reactor "did not pose an imminent threat."
AP quoted a government official saying that waste water in a storage pool for one of the damaged reactors may be boiling. He said technicians were trying to solve the problem, but did not expand on what additional risks this poses.
Most of the 800 workers at the plant were evacuated due to fears of exposure to high levels of radiation, but about 50 stayed behind to pump seawater into the three reactors that experienced explosions to cool them.
The explosions have already injured 15 people who work at the plant and exposed up to 190 to higher radiation.
All of the explosions have happened after cooling system breakdowns at the reactors, BBC reports. To prevent complete meltdowns, engineers are trying to flood the chambers.
Meanwhile, Japan is still struggling to cope with the mass scale of human casualties and suffering caused by the earthquake — upgraded to magnitude 9.0 by the U.S. Geological Survey — and tsunami. The official death toll has risen to 2,500, and is expected to pass 10,000.
Some areas, like the coastal town of Minami Sanriku, have been completely devastated after the tsunami flattened virtually everything in its path.
More than 500,000 remain homeless.
The disaster has left Japan's already fragile economy reeling. There has been major damage to key industries, with electronics giants Toshiba and Sony shutting down factories and automakers Nissan, Honda and Toyota halting production lines at the cost of millions of dollars a day.
And stock markets plunged in Japan and across much of the Asia-Pacific region Tuesday.
Yet, even as hopes were fading of finding thousands of people missing since the tsunami swept ashore, there were fresh stories of survival.
A 70-year-old woman was found in her home in the town of Otsuchi, Sky News reported. It said she was suffering from hypothermia, but otherwise unhurt. A man was also rescued from the town of Ishimaki. A day earlier, a four-month-old girl was pulled, uninjured, from rubble in the town of Ishinomaki.
Back in Tokyo, residents remain on edge. In this Raw Feed video, GlobalPost correspondent Michael Condon describes the grim mood tonight in Japan's largest city.

rd95 I just remembered to ping you about this. How has your quilt come along, I'd love to see it's progress :)
I messed it up beyond repair. Basically both my square cuts and my stitches were too sloppy so by the time the 2 inch squares got sewed together to make 4 inch squares, everything was askew. I'm gonna try again, but at the moment I'm tied up with other things. I picked up drawing this past week though . . . which I'm awful at cause I literally haven't drawn anything in about fifteen years, but it's fun and a great way to kill some time in front of the TV.

Unanswered: Access with Windows 2000
I have a network of about 40 users, accessing a 91mb database over lan. I have at least 30 users on windows 2k, the rest on windows xp. Server is windows 2k.
The problem is the database becomes corrupt on a daily basis, I have upgraded windows 2k to sp4, download the jet4.0 service pack. Updated Access 2000 to sp3. Changed the registry to opportunstic locking on the server & clients.
Is it the network switches 10/100 that is causing the problems or is it access not designed for this many users.
Could anybody give some advise.

Does your app have a separate front and back end? If not, you have a higher chance of the db becoming corrupt with many users as it just takes one to corrupt the forms, then the db. Probably better to have separate fronts on user's local machine and back end on server. If you wanted to get really fancy, you could have unbound forms and just send a connection recordset to insert/update/delete, etc.All code ADO/ADOX unless otherwise specified.

BACKSTORY: From the Visit Historic Savannah website: Bonaventure Cemetery lies along the Wilmington River, a short distance from Savannah's "historic district," but no less historically significant. Settled by Colonel Mylryne about 1760, he built a red brick plantation house on the land and named the place Bonaventure, which means "good fortune" in French. The plantation was the site of Mulryne's daughter Mary's wedding to Josiah Tattnall in 1761. The property was seized during the Revolutionary War after Mulryne and Tattnell declared themselves Loyalists and left for England. Tattnall's son returned after the war and purchased the home from James Habersham. The property remained in the hands of the family until 1840 when it was sold to Captain Peter Wilberger, owner of the Pulaski house for use as a cemetery. The city of Savannah purchased the cemetery in 1907.
Many of Savannah's statesmen, citizens and soldiers are buried in Bonaventure Cemetery in the shade of 250-year-old moss-laden oak trees. Savannah founders Noble Wimberly Jones and Edward Telfair are buried here along with Civil War Generals; Robert J. Anderson, Henry R. Jackson, Alexander R. Lawton, Hugh W. Mercer, Claudius C. Wilson and Commodore Josiah Tattnall. In more recent years, famous Savannah celebrities laid to rest in Bonaventure include singer and lyricist Johnny Mercer and poet Conrad Aiken.
In a cemetery of many unusual tombstones, perhaps one of the most unique is one in the shape of a piano. The interesting tombstones and vaults, the colorful camellias and azaleas, and the wonderful old live oak, dogwood and magnolia trees have made the cemetery one of the most photographed in the country.
In recent years, Bonaventure Cemetery has become one of Savannah's most popular tourist attractions, primarily due to its role in Berendt's best-selling book, "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil." The cover of the book features the "Bird Girl" which used to reside in the cemetery. The sculpture has since been moved to the Telfair Museum of Art.
Prices for high quality photo prints of the images on my site can be found on my main Photography page. The social media buttons below will help you connect to Daveland for more creativity & fun!

|It takes dedication to watch Cricket in India – the IPL match started long after the heat of day – but even so it was still 36C according to the display on the top of a near by tower block – and that was without the extra heat from the flood lights! I can't imaging what watching a five day test match would be like…
IPL is like the highlights from a normal one day match – but live without the need to cut any of the play. Add the cheerleaders whenever there was a pause for TV adverts – or to recover the ball from the bound – which it reached with great regularity – to increase the entertainment.
It was a great experience – only slightly marred by the fact that the modern world still hasn't excepted that the public want to take pictures of events – I gave up the memory card of my camera to get it in – and was limited to the 15MB internal memory…

CouchDB with Clojure
IBM developerWorks just published an article I wrote on CouchDB and Clojure. It uses clj-http, Clutch and CouchDB. It aims to cover the REST APIs of CouchDB by way of Clojure, using parallel examples in Clutch and straight HTTP calls using clj-http. It also discusses CouchDB views and replication. Big thanks to Tunde for Clutch, Mark for clj-http, the CouchDB folks and Alex for reviewing the article.
