Economist and author Peter Schiff has qualified to be on the ballot against former WWE CEO Linda McMahon in Connecticut's Republican Senate primary.
Connecticut Secretary of State Susan Bysiewicz confirmed Monday that Schiff earned a position after gathering more than the required 8,268 signatures.
"I look forward to waging a competitive campaign and defeating Linda McMahon August 10th," Schiff said in a statement. "I am confident as voters learn more about me, they will like what they see and hear."
A Tea Party favorite, Schiff did not win enough delegates at the Republican State Convention to qualify and therefore had to gather signatures.
Former Rep. Rob Simmons (R-Conn.) is also running against McMahon. He qualified for the ballot at the convention, but has since suspended his campaign. He does, however, plan to remain on August's ballot.
McMahon is the favorite to win the nomination and has invested millions of her own money into the race.

2015 was a landmark year for the Fund. Click here to read our year in review.
The Peace Impact programme is delivering sensitive interventions in communities that have not previously, or have only partially, participated in peace building and reconciliation activities.
The Peace Walls Programme focuses on helping interface communities to bring about the conditions that can allow for the removal of Peace Walls. Click here to read more.
The latest edition of our newsletter looks at commmunities taking risks for peace.
Building Foundations initiatives are active in the most marginalised communities of Northern Ireland and the southern border counties, working to create the conditions for reconciliation and a long-term shared future.
Each of the programmes addresses key issues of deprivation, social cohesion, and community leadership in order to help make community-led change possible and sustainable.
The Community Based Economic and Social Regeneration Programme aims to help the most socially and economically disadvantaged regions in Northern Ireland and the southern border counties achieve community development and sustainable reconciliation through the funding of cross-community and cross-border projects capable of delivering real change for those living within the area.
This Programme is now closed.
Established in 1993, the Community Leadership Programme is now in its fifth phase and continues to offer exciting and innovative training and learning opportunities which aim to strengthen the leadership capacity of community groups. The Programme goal is to empower communities to develop their leadership skills, and in turn to enable them to build more effective communities and improve local social, economic and community relations conditions.
The current Programme will be delivered to 35 groups over a one year period in Northern Ireland and the southern border counties, in areas of weak community infrastructure and disadvantage. The Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action (NICVA) has been appointed to deliver the Programme and will recruit community-based organisations according to greatest need, stage of development, potential to gain from the Programme and commitment to learning and development, including willingness to network with others.
For further information about the Community Leadership Programme and/or an expression of interest form to take part in the 2012-2013 Programme, go to www.communityleadershipprogramme.org or please contact:
This Programme is now closed.
The Communities in Transition Programme is one of the Fund's key initiatives that seeks to address deeply rooted social, economic and political problems. The Programme focuses on areas with poor community infrastructure which experience ongoing community tension and alienation. It operates at a grassroots level and mobilises local people to encourage self-help within these marginalised communities.
The Communities in Transition Programme has proved successful in empowering communities to exercise a greater influence on developments in their own area. The Communities in Transition Programme is delivered on behalf of the Fund by the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland.

The Subcommittee will examine the efficient operation of government programs that affect small businesses, including the SBA, and develop proposals to make them operate in a more cost-effective manner. This Subcommittee also will review the regulatory burdens imposed on small businesses and how those burdens may be alleviated.
"In his short time on the Small Business Committee so far, Congressman Kelly has shown a remarkable talent for investigations and oversight," Chairman Steve Chabot (R-Ohio) said. "His experience as a prosecutor helps us get to the heart of issues quickly and accurately, so he's a natural choice to lead this subcommittee."
"It remains a top priority to make sure our small business owners in the First District, Mississippi and the nation are able to operate without the burden of unnecessary rules and regulations," Rep. Kelly said. "Through this new role, I look forward to working with Chairman Chabot and leading my colleagues in forwarding policies that reduce burdens on small businesses and working to make it easier for American families to successfully start and run a business. I thank Chairman Chabot for this opportunity."
Congressman Trent Kelly represents Mississippi's First Congressional District. He serves on the House Armed Services Committee, the House Committee on Agriculture and he is the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Investigations, Oversight and Regulations for the House Small Business Committee. This is his second term.

Sporting not keen on Douala
By Francisco Acedo
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Sporting Lisbon have no plans to recall Rodolph Douala from Portsmouth.
Sporting Lisbon have no plans to recall Rodolph Douala, according to reports in Portugal.
The Cameroon international joined Portsmouth on a season-long loan in August, with a view to a permanent move.
However, he has failed to break into Harry Redknapp's side and has admitted that he is frustrated not to be playing.
Speculation suggested that he could return to Sporting in the New Year, but club directors are believed to have ruled out his return.
Douala was linked with a number of clubs before opting to move to Fratton Park and interested parties are likely to be monitoring his situation carefully.

Are Church Women Treated As Second Class Citizens In Your Denomination?
Do you think Church Women are treated as second class citizens in many denominations?
Church Women – Second Class Citizens
It is quite amazing to me that in a place where majority of the members are women, that this group can be treated so poorly by many denominations. Women do so much in churches and I wonder what would happen if church women should lay down arms for just a month. I really struggle with keeping my mouth shut when I see the way some women are treated in some denominations. I have seen too many women struggle in marriages that are falling apart without getting the help they need. If they cannot get help from the church that is supposed to protect them, then where are they supposed to go? From what I can see women are second class citizens in many denominations and I wonder why this has been allowed to go on for so long.
Patriarchy in the church has been a huge problem for a very long time; not much has changed since then. There are still churches that treat women as if they are second class citizens. There must be a collective documented effort by the church to defend the rights of women. Patriarchy is an oppressive culture that seems to be the mainstay in too many churches today. It is not as blatant as it was before, but it still exists, sometimes in such a subtle form, that you have to really look closely.
In many Churches it is okay for women to clean the church, work in the kitchen, and greet visitors. However, when it comes to making any administrative decisions, this must be done by the men. This attitude is so ingrained that many administrative positions are occupied by men who are not qualified for the job. They would rather have poor representation than fill the position by a qualified woman.
As I close I want to leave these questions with you. I hope you can answer them objectively, even to yourselves:
How does your denomination treat the female members?
How does the leaders treat the women in your congregation?
Do you think women (in general) are treated as second class citizens in many denominations?
Do you know of a church where women are treated as second class citizens?

Progress on ethical gold is tarnished by laggardsMarch 2010
US jewellery retailers are making progress on the ethical-sourcing of gold – but a number of laggards still remain.
A new report on the gold retailing sector from the Washington DC-based environmental pressure group Earthworks says major jewellers are increasingly finding alternatives to irresponsibly mined metals, and are generally working well with suppliers to ensure greater understanding of the ethical issues behind gold extraction.
In particular 60 retailers are now incorporating a set of 'Golden Rules' into their operations. The rules, which were drawn up by Oxfam America and Earthworks several years ago, commit signatories to protecting certain areas from mining, and require them to increase awareness of the principles of responsible mining among their suppliers.
However, large retailers have yet to make a concerted effort to use recycled gold, which would reduce the need for more mining, and few have yet integrated the requirements of the Golden Rules into their sourcing policy.
The study says that since demand for jewellery accounts for about 90 per cent of global mine production of gold, jewellers 'play a particularly important role in helping shift mining onto a more responsible track.'
Earthworks says that despite the generally encouraging picture, it is worried by the performance of some large companies, as well as others that refused even to respond to its requests for information.
Target and T.J. Maxx have yet to support the Golden Rules, with the former refusing to complete the report's survey. Target has 1750 stores in the US, while T.J. Maxx runs 874.
Other large firms, such as JCPenney, have not conducted a supply audit, while a number of companies, including Cartier and Signet, are not participating in third-party certification systems, such as the Initiative for Responsible Mining Assurance.
Jewellers covered by the study were graded from A to F on 15 criteria, including tracing their supply chain, incorporating the Golden Rules into their policies and contracts, and their support for third party certification initiatives.
Only eight of the 19 large firms scored C or above, compared to 19 out of 21 small- or medium-sized companies. Most big companies rated D, while Tiffany was the best-scoring large jeweller, meriting a B.

Cervical cancer is easy to prevent with regular screening and follow-up. Two screening tests can help prevent cervical cancer or find it early:
- PAP TEST (or Pap smear) looks for cell changes on the cervix that might become cervical cancer if they are not treated properly.
- THE HPV TEST looks for the virus that can cause these cell changes. If you combine a Pap test with a HPV test (co-testing) and your results are normal your doctor may tell you that you can wait as long as five years before your next screening!

Dual PS1 CDUs
For a while, it has been possible to externalize PS1's CDU onto the
independent MCDU. Several of these MCDUs can be active
at the same time, and if you have more than one application (FMS, ACARS,
Tug...), they can all be accessed on their own MCDU if you wish. However, if
you want to access the same application (usually FMS) on more than one MCDU,
these MCDUs will sync up. You cannot, for example, watch the PROG page on
one MCDU and LEGS on another at the same time.
The Dual PS1 CDU project tries to remedy this situation, by offering a
simplified display-only FMS mode which is independent from the actual PS1
CDU page on display.

After the moderate success of his 'Yuddham Sei' directed by Myshkin, director-actor Cheran is all set to thrill the viewers with his home production titled 'Muran', which also has the talented Prasanna in a prominent role. The film has been directed by Rajan Madhav and has music by Sajjan Madhav.
Rajan, incidentally, was working under Myshkin as his assistant director and makes his directorial debut with 'Muran'. Cheran tried his best to sell the release and distribution rights of his film to Udhayanidhi's Red Giant Movies. Udhayanidhi, who is busy with his debut attempt as hero with 'Oru Kal Oru Kannadi', didn't appear to be paying heed to Cheran's request.
Dhananjeyan of UTV Motion Pictures has now stepped in to solve Cheran's tangle of releasing and distributing 'Muran' by taking up the responsibility. Readers might recall that Dhananjayan was the losing producer who produced the Cheran-starrer 'Raman Thediya Seethai' more than two years back when he was working with Moserbaer.
This has left many in the industry wonder as to what could have happened in the meantime which has re-united Dhananjeyan and Cheran.

Common lisp
A dialect of Lisp defined by a consortium of companies brought together in 1981 by the Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Companies included Symbolics, Lisp Machines, Inc., Digital Equipment Corporation, Bell Labs., Xerox, Hewlett-Packard, Lawrence Livermore Labs., Carnegie-Mellon University, Stanford University, Yale, MIT and USC Berkeley. Common Lisp is lexically scoped by default but can be dynamically scoped.
Common Lisp is a large and complex language, fairly close to a superset of MacLisp. It features lexical binding, data structures using defstruct and setf, closures, multiple values, types using declare and a variety of numerical types. Function calls allow "&optional", keyword and "&rest" arguments. Generic sequence can either be a list or an array. It provides formatted printing using escape characters. Common LISP now includes CLOS, an extended LOOP macro, condition system, pretty printing and logical pathnames.
Implementations include AKCL, CCL, CLiCC, CLISP, CLX, CMU Common Lisp, DCL, KCL, MCL and WCL.

Travels On my Mind: Bogota, Colombia
Bogota Travel Blog› entry 6 of 6 › view all entries
Plenisphere put the idea of travelling to Colombia on my mind. Plenisphere must be one of those people who really have a severe case of travel-itis and ( I suspect) must have spent most of his waking hours researching about places where he want to go next. Plenisphere said Bogota is one of the world's safests cities for women (at least based on his research). Something that I find prespoterous. I always associate Colombia with drug cartels and drug related violence, so how can Bogota be safe for women (or for any human being for that matter?)?
It was during the Asian Clean Energy forum
held in the ADB headquarters in Manila that my perspective on Bogota
changed. One of the main speakers of the forum is former Bogota
mayor Enrique Penalosa in which he talked about how to make a city both
ecologically and socially sustainable. And what is a better model for
that than Bogota - where traffic jam is practically non-existent,
pedestrians can walk safely, and children aren't scared to play in the
streets? Penalosa, has been largely credited for making Bogota
for what it is now.
As Penalosa himself said, "a good city must be planned, designed and built around the needs of PEOPLE, not the needs of cars."
is why for Penalosa constructing more highways won't solve traffic
jams. Rather, it's having a more efficient public transport system and
encouraging people to use the bike, instead of a car, for mobility. In
Bogota, at least based on what Penalosa said (and the pictures of
Bogota that he presented), Bogota is definitely lovely, the street
looks clean, there are buses that transport people, and there are bike
lanes which enable people to bike safely. And if only for that
I'd love to go to Bogota, just to know for myself if Penalosa's Bogota
is for real.
Of course anyone in any city can bike
to work, but try doing that in Manila. Not only would a biker get dirty
from the fumes, he/she might get mugged, or killed - by a speeding bus,
jeepney or car or get his/her lungs poisoned by dirty air pollution. I
dont ride a bike (one of the many motoring skills that a klutz like me
could hardly master) but I agree with what Penalosa said about
"A protected bicycle way is a symbol of democracy. It shows that a citizen on a $ 40 bicycle is equally important as one on a $ 40,000 car."
Bikes are very democratic and environment friendly and people should use it.
But then, planning a city such as Bogota also requires a change in the city folks attritude and I don't see Pinoys giving up their fondness for cars. It doesn't matter if it's second hand or that they can barely afford to pay the installments or that a car is not a worth investment as its value depreciates, for most Filipinos, having a car is a status symbol. I remembered one media coleague who was so obsessed to buy a car that she begged her brother to lend her money to purchase a car - something which she deems really important as she's one person who really loves to brag and showing off a brand new car is the way for her to cover up her insecurities. Filipinos will always buy a car instead of investing it on education or mutual funds. (another colleague who chose to sell her car told me that she'd rather spend her money traveling instead of paying for car maintenance. I sooo agree with her). Not to mention that well, in Manila, it's really difficult to be mobile without a car.
But changing a mindset wil take a perhaps a lifetime to do. That said, there are few things that can be done which can actually reduce car use. As Penalosa said, people don't use the public transport system because they care for the environment. what will encourage people to use the transport system is to make it more efficient and affordable. Which is why, unlike the crowded and oh so inconvenient MRT in Metro Mabnila (have you tried climbing the steep stairs which can give you a heart attack and queing for tickets here?) - MRT is the way to in Singapore and Bangkok. Trains in both cities are clean, air conditioned and efficient. I never stopped telling my friends that in the Lion City, learning how to drive a car is NOT a necessary motor skill. But in the Philippines, where public transport system sucks, it's just easier and convenient to buy a car.

The Made in Italy Business Directory
This is a crucial appointment for the entire aerospace industry. Over the last 35 years, FIDAE has become the most important and comprehensive exhibition for the aerospace, defence and security markets in the Americas. The event will be held from March 29th to April 3rd at the "Comodoro Arturo Merino Ben├Łtez" Airport in Santiago, and represents a real business platform as well as a genuine gateway into the market in the region. The exhibition covers the entire aerospace industry, including the sectors of civil aviation, defence, maintenance services, airport equipment, space technology and homeland security.
It will provide a unique opportunity to discover the excellence of Italian production in the aircraft and spacecraft sectors, with a collective organised by ICE (the Italian Trade Promotion Agency), in collaboration with AIAD, the Italian Industries Federation for Aerospace, Defence and Security. The Italian participation in FIDAE Santiago will showcase the country's aerospace industry, with a particular focus on niche markets, projects and processes: an area where Italian companies lead in terms of competitiveness and innovative capacity. These are highly specialised small and medium enterprises, which have developed an industrial platform based on applications, products and processes able to respond appropriately to foreign demand. Eight of the top Italian aerospace and defence companies have been chosen for the collective. They have been allocated a space of about 120 square metres, divided between stands and an open area with an official meeting point.
The Italian aerospace industry is one of the country's prime sectors, ranking as the fourth player in Europe and seventh in the world. With an overall turnover of about 18 billion Euros, the industry employs a total workforce of 64,000, of which 52,000 work in the aeronautics and space sectors. The drive towards innovation is clear, with the sector's investment in research and development amounting to 15% of total turnover.
The FIDAE event alternates on a biennial basis with the LAAD fair in Rio de Janeiro, representing an important occasion for the whole of Latin America. It therefore offers a vital opportunity to learn about the best of the Italian aerospace industry, to conclude agreements, and to watch business opportunities materialise. The fair takes place in three themed pavilions: one dedicated to civil aviation, one to the aerospace industry, and the third to Chile, the host country. This year, there will be a special area dedicated to the signing of trade agreements. On Saturday April 2nd and Sunday 3rd, the fair will open its doors to the general public with an air show, featuring demonstration flights and an exhibition by aerobatic teams.

The entertaining television series Cray Fishers has highlighted the rewards and risks of the southern rock lobster fishery.
It has also demonstrated just how successful the Quota Management System has been in rebuilding and conserving stocks.
That flies in the face of a recent Listener magazine editorial that set new lows for breathless, ignorant blather in yet another attack on a seafood industry that instead should be celebrated for its contribution to our economy and enviable standard of living.
The thrust of the Listener huffing, possibly written by an over-eager intern when veteran editor Pamela Stirling was on a day off, was that the claim our QMS is a world leader "has now been exposed as a colossal piece of hollow PR puffery".
The spurious reasoning was the furore over discarding from several inshore vessels revealed in the Heron report proved the QMS was a crock.
Keyboard interviewers are, of course, entitled to their opinions but they're not entitled to their own "facts".
Here are some.
The southern rock lobster fishery, designated the CRA8 quota management area, takes in Fiordland and is a prime example of highly effective self-management.
New Zealand has seen two cray booms characterised by dramatic overfishing of virgin stocks followed by stock collapse.
The first was in Fiordland in the 1950s, the second in the Chathams in the 1960s, both based on exporting frozen tails to the US.
Catches in the Fiordland fishery peaked in excess of 3500 tonnes in 1956.
Rock lobster entered the QMS in 1990 when there were as many as 180 vessels in the southern fishery.
The CRA8 Management Committee was formed in 1996 on the back of continuing concerns about overfishing.
It oversaw the development of a management strategy that was accepted by the Minister at the time. The implementation of this decision rule resulted in cuts in quota from 888 tonnes in 1998 down to 567 tonnes in 2001.
These were really tough decisions that saw the number of vessels drop to around 67 and a number of lifelong fishermen forced out of the industry.
But the effect on the fishery was dramatic, not only arresting the decline but turning it around.
This led to the first of a number of increases in the Total Allowable Commercial Catch in 2004 and the fishery has rebuilt to the extent the current CRA8 quota is a conservative 962 tonnes, one third of the national production.
While the TACC is almost double that of 2001, the number of vessels is similar.
Today, 97 percent of lobsters from CRA8 are exported live, with China by far the biggest market.
Rock lobster has grown to a $300 million export industry, by far our most lucrative species.
In CRA8 the focus today is on maximum economic yield, through a very high biomass which provides the fishermen with the opportunity to decide when and where they go fishing and what grades to land to meet market demands.
That demand is for lobsters from the minimum legal size up to 1.5kgs.
"This means almost all of the large, mature lobsters are returned to the sea," according to CRA8 chief executive officer Malcolm Lawson.
"This has resulted in a very high breeding biomass.
"That is also good news for other stakeholders as recreational fishers favour the large lobsters and other parts of society just like to know that the population is in good heart."
The organisation has invested heavily in science and was also at the forefront of the formation of the Fiordland Marine Guardians and Fiordland Coastal Clean-Up.
The close monitoring of stocks that the QMS encourages means that quotas are also reduced in some years.
That has occurred in CRA4 based on the Wairarapa and Wellington coasts where operators have agreed to a 15 percent cut this season.
"It is not in our interests to deplete the resource to unsustainable levels," Wairarapa-based operator Richard Kibblewhite said.
"We base every decision on hard science, we are not just standing on a boat taking a guess."
He likened the fishery to a farm – one year there might be more growth, another a drought.
Similarly, paua divers at the top of the South Island, have agreed to a significant harvest cut to preserve their fishery.
The TACC in PAUA7 has been halved, from 187 to 93 tonnes.
Such management decisions, some with considerable economic impact, are evidence of responsible fisheries management.
Far from confirming the QMS is broken, they demonstrate the exact opposite.

Picture perfect day for football – sunny and 81 degrees – cooled down to mid 70s for a gorgeous kickoff by the Spartans of Hillsboro. Over 4,000 fans packed the stands of Hare Field to watch the Hillsboro-Glencoe rivalry.
The Spartans started off strong by intercepting the opening drive of Glencoe but then gave it right back with a 3 and out. Glencoe scored the game's first touchdown on a Mike Schrader run with 6:26 remaining in the first quarter. The Crimson Tide succeeded on a 2-point conversion try to get out to a 8-0 lead. After trading turnovers Glencoe settled in for another sustained drive that was capped off by a 30+-yard run by Glencoe's Spalding. The Tide went for the 2-point conversion again and converted to extend their lead to 16-0 with 1:55 left in the first. Hillsboro immediately answered with Adam Morton running back the ensuing kickoff 80+ yards, making the score 16-7 with 1:34 to go in the first. Glencoe's Spalding fumbled on the final play of the first quarter to turn the ball back over to Hillsboro.
Glencoe poured on 2 more touchdowns late in the second quarter to extend their lead to 29-7 at the half.
Hillsboro opened up the second half with an impressive opening drive, but turning the ball over on a fumble at the Glencoe 11-yard line. The teams traded possessions back and forth until Hillsboro turned the ball over on their own 6-yard line. Glencoe converted the turnover into points, extending their lead to 36-7 with just under a minute to play in the 3rd. The Crimson Tide added 2 late touchdowns to close out the Spartans.
Final score: Glencoe-50 Hillsboro-7
MVP- Glencoe RB Mike Schrader.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Blu-ray and UHD' started by Robert Harris, Jul 24, 2013.
Bingo. The Elvis recording session was three-channel for mixing purposes, not for stereo.
A typical three-channel recording for mixing purposes:
1. Vocal
2. Guitar
3. Background vocals, handclap overdubs
This was not recorded for stereo.
Fox started releasing mono optical during 1956. Films such as Teenage Rebel, the Girl Cant Help It, Oh Men Oh Women.
There are also some Fox scoe stereo films,where the stereo is missing such as
three Faces of Eve,
Hemingways Adventures of a Young Man.
While the Elvis Love Me Tender has rediscovered Multitrack, I doubt tht Fox used them for a stereo remix. they usually don't
However, Fox (for laserdisc) did have me use multi channel recordings of Glenn Miller and company to remix Orchestra Wives and Sun Valley Serenade.
I got this today - it really looks great.
Sorry, The Jordanaires didn´t appear. Only the Ken Darby Trio in the songs of the film.

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: failed local emissions test on 1999 Ford Taurus
failed emissions diagnostic codes read P0171 & P0174 I replaced both down stream O2 sensors but still same whats common?
not the o2 sensors. the long term trims are out of spec from a vaccuum leak, low fuel pressure or a bad mass air flow sensor. you already put in 2 parts it did not need, now get it checked for the exact issue then replace what the problem is. in other words, get the diag done and then fix it yourself.
so where should I start? One guy told me it was the o2 sensors,but this didn't fix the issue. Running lean after replaceing the two rear sensors.
Roy's suggestions gave you some thoughts as to what could be the problem. And -- only a true diagnosis with proper test equipment can tell what is wrong for sure. You can replace gaskets, fuel pump, MAF sensor and spend a bunch of money and still not fix it. Get a good diagnosis and then if you choose you can repair it yourself and save some cash that way.

... but here it is anyways:
Happy Thanksgiving!
In my mind, this was yesterday, and the 24-hour period between then and now was basically one extended library session.* However, my calendar informs me that this is sadly not the case, and that 19 days have in fact passed since that oh so delightful day. Looking back on these pictures makes me so happy! They were so kindly posted on facebook by my friends because things were waaay too chaotic for me to be taking pictures on the day. We roasted a turkey and cooked for 25 people, 0 of whom we poisoned! Yay! And others brought some seriously amazing food along as well. Ahhh I love Thanksgiving. Everybody getting together to bask in the holiday spirit, eat delicious food, say what we're thankful for, tell stories, drink lots of wine, listen to Christmas music, and generally be merry. Lots of people I care about in my living room being happy is basically my idea of bliss. I think Thanksgiving might be my favorite holiday. Until Christmas.
* I exaggerate greatly for sympathy effect, since in actuality there has been a fair amount of Christmas market, mulled wine, Christmas crafting, and generally happy happy times. but also a lot of the library.
I'm posting this 25% to keep my blog up-to-date and 75% to distract myself from studying and writing papers. Which means that, in all likelihood, on exam day, this will be me:

At Tribe Archipelago, we appreciate the great community of photographers that use our presets everyday. It's incredibly satisfying to see our work become a part of someone else's identity. That's why we want to showcase the work of our members and share with you the amazing images they create everyday. This article is the first one of a series about these talented photographers who bring our presets to the next level.
Liam Rimmington is an English photographer based in Sheffiled, UK. If you are part of our Facebook group, you have probably seen his image on the cover of the group. His work is very modern and neat, and we absolutely love his editorial work.
1. Can you tell us more about you? Where are you from? What do you shoot?
Hi I'm Liam and I'm from Sheffield in the north of England. I started out with photography around 4 years ago, mainly shooting nature at the time, but a year and a half ago I started shooting portraits and very quickly fell in love. I decided a couple of months ago to turn my passion for photography into a profession, I'm still working full time in retail and try to shoot as much as possible on my days off, but I hope to make this my full time career one day.
2. What is your favorite lens to shoot with?
My favourite lens has to be my Sigma 35mm f/1.4, I'm pretty much shooting with that 90% of the time. I moved to a full frame camera in January, so adoring being able to shoot wide environmental portraits. I do have to give a shout out to my Canon 85mm f/1.8 which is awesome lens and is what I use the other 10% of the time, but I'd love to upgrade that to the f/1.4 version in the future.
3. Can you tell us how you have incorporated the Tribe Archipelago presets in your workflow? and what is your favorite pack to work with?
The Tribe Archipelago presets were a real eye opener for me, before using them I'd constantly find myself hunting through packs and packs of presets trying to find something close to what I wanted, and still finding the need to tweak them heavily to achieve the look I wanted. With Tribe Archipelago presets it's almost always 1-click and done! The LXC pack is the only one I own right now, but those presets are mind blowing, I think it's the muted highlights I love the most about them.
4. If you could photograph a wedding or do a shoot anywhere in the world, where would it be?
If I could shoot anywhere in the world it would probably have to be a stylised portrait shoot in Iceland, think over the top outfit, smoke bombs and dramatic scenery!
5. What is your favorite quote?
"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do." -Rob Siltanen
6. Do you have a recommendation for a book or a music album that you think people should know about?
An album that I can't stop listening to right now is Rituals by Other Lives, the perfect relaxed soundtrack to an editing session.
Thanks so much for your time Liam! You can see Liam's work here:

Port Vila, Vanuatu (PressExposure) August 20, 2009 -- It would be better to hold your wedding festivities in a fire-proof environment when your ex-wife is an arsonist.
West of Kuwait City, the tribal area of al-Jahra, was unexpectedly lit-up when the woman's tent was set on fire by an ex-wife. Kuwait's customs, rooted deep in nomadic heritage, have the men and women segregated at wedding festivities. The children tend to go to the women's tent, as there is dancing and singing and a buffet dinner.
The tent, doused in petrol, burned to the ground in only 3 minutes, killing 43 people, including six children. "52 others were injured and remain in hospital", said the health minister Hilal al-Sayer.
Her mother and sister are believed to have died in the blaze, but the bride escaped. It seems she was still having her make-up applied.
Guests stampeded in an attempt to get out the only exit in the tent. As the tent had been erected in the narrow confines between two residential complexes, rescue efforts were hampered.
At the time of the fire there were around two hundred people in the tent. Abdullah al-Zafeeri, whose mother and sister are among the injured, said "I heard the women screaming. Some children died in the arms of their mothers".
The names of those killed have not been released. Many charred remains are unrecognizable and will require forensic aid before being able to supply formal identification.
Col. Mohammed al-Saber, Interior Ministry spokesman, said "We have identified the perpetrator, who confessed to committing the crime for personal reasons". Witnesses saw the 23 year old woman pouring petrol over the marquee.
Following her arrest the arsonist admitted her actions were for revenge. She was unhappy over the poor treatment she had received from her ex-husband prior to their divorce.
The arsonist will most likely face the death penalty, which is still in force in Kuwait, unless her lawyers are able to convince the court of diminished responsibility through mental impairment.

Moving forward with Composr
ocPortal has been relaunched as Composr CMS. ocPortal 9 is superseded by Composr 10.
Head over to compo.sr for our new site, and to our migration roadmap. Existing ocPortal member accounts have been mirrored.
ocPortal 4 public beta testing
Login / Search
#39204 (In Topic #8788)
Please bear in mind that because this is the first public beta, it is not yet widely tested. There could still be very major bugs and we can't guarantee any schedule for getting bugs fixed. For this reason we strongly recommend against using this beta on a live website.
Also please bear in mind that three four aspects of our development process have not yet been completed:
Here's a reminder of what ocPortal 4 is all about…
ocPortal 4, the highlights
The thrust of the new versionAlmost every screen in ocPortal redesigned for increased usability and attractiveness.
A new philosophy of feature minimalism to fight feature bloat and make ocPortal easier to learn and deploy.
Even higher standardsocPortal 4 premiers a ground-breaking new approach to preventing cross-site-scripting security vulnerabilities. If we make a mistake in our coding we will pick up on it right away, almost totally avoiding the accidental and until-now inevitable XSS vulnerabilities that plague web applications. Our new approach is so elegant, we could publish a scientific paper on it.
The entire code of ocPortal is now written to be 'type strict', a process helped along by a new development version of PHP written by ocProducts. What this tech-speak means to you, our users, is that the proportion of bugs that could slip past us will drop, meaning your future ocPortal experience will be more stable than ever.

I am just about done and hope to do some tests with this soon.
I run http://otakuplayground.com and am hopping to make themes and other things for ocportal even though I no longer use it for otakuplayground.com I still love it and feel it could go far with the right help. It needs themes and needs people to advertise for it.
There are too many online users to list.

Stop-and-frisk in New York City
The stop-question-and-frisk program, or stop-and-frisk, in New York City, is a New York City Police Department practice of temporarily detaining, questioning, and at times searching civilians on the street for weapons and other contraband.[1] This is what is known in other places in the United States as the Terry stop. The rules for stop, question, and frisk are found in the state's criminal procedure law section 140.50, and are based on the decision of the US Supreme Court in the case of Terry v. Ohio.[2][3]
12,404 stops were made in 2016.[4] The stop-and-frisk program has previously taken place on a much wider scale. Between 2003 and 2013, over 100,000 stops were made per year, with 685,724 people being stopped at the height of the program in 2011.[4] The program became the subject of a racial profiling controversy.[2][5] The vast majority of those stopped were African-American or Latino, most of whom were aged 14–24.[2][4][5] The racial disparity persists even after controlling for precinct variability and race-specific estimates of crime participation.[6][7] Research suggests that stop-and-frisk had few effects, if any, on crime in New York City.[8][9]
Stop-and-frisk became an issue in the 2016 presidential election.[10][11]
The stop and frisk policy was adopted from English law in a number of American courts. In accordance with English common law, without statutory provisions, a police officer has the power to stop, question, and frisk suspects given reasonable circumstances. Based on a standard that holds less than probable cause, the power is granted upon the standard of reasonable suspicion. It is a question of circumstances of each individual case that determines whether reasonable detention and investigation is validated.[12]
Stop-and-frisk was made into an area of concern by the Supreme Court when it encountered the case of Terry v. Ohio. While frisks were arguably illegal, until then, a police officer could search only someone who had been arrested, unless a search warrant had been obtained. In the cases of Terry v. Ohio, Sibron v. New York, and Peters v. New York, the Supreme Court granted limited approval in 1968 to frisks conducted by officers lacking probable cause for an arrest in order to search for weapons if the officer believes the subject to be dangerous. The Court's decision made suspicion of danger to an officer grounds for a "reasonable search."[13]
Stop-and-frisk is not necessarily a new invention. In the early 1980s, if a police officer had reasonable suspicion of a possible crime, he had the authority to stop someone and ask questions. If, based on the subject's answers, the suspicion level did not escalate to probable cause for an arrest, the person would be released immediately. That was only a "stop-and-question". The "frisk" part of the equation did not come into play except on two cases: if possession of a weapon was suspected, or reasonable suspicion of a possible crime escalated to probable cause to arrest for an actual crime based on facts developed after the initial stop-and-question. That all changed in the 1990s, when CompStat was developed under then-Police Commissioner William J. Bratton. High-ranking police officials widely incorporated the "stop, question and frisk".[14]
In 1990, Bratton became head of the New York City Transit Police. Bratton described George L. Kelling as his "intellectual mentor" and implemented a zero tolerance policy because of his contributions to the development of the broken windows theory. Republican mayor Rudy Giuliani hired Bratton as his police commissioner, who adopted the strategy more widely, for use in New York City. Giuliani used Bratton and the massive expansion of the New York police department to crack down on crimes. Giuliani's "zero-tolerance" included a crackdown on fare evasion, public drinking, public urination, graffiti artists, and "squeegee men" (who had been wiping windshields of stopped cars and aggressively demanding payment).[15]
When police officers make stops, they fill out a form explaining the situation and details of the stop. After the officer goes off duty, these forms are then entered into a database. There are two ways the NYPD reports this stop-and-frisk data: a paper report released quarterly and an electronic database released annually. In 2002, there were 97,296 "stop and frisk" stops made by New York police officers; 82.4% resulted in no fines or convictions. The number of stops increased dramatically in 2008 to over half a million, 88% of which did not result in any fine or conviction, peaking in 2011 to 685,724 stops, again with 88% resulting in no conviction. On average, from 2002 to 2013, the number of individuals stopped without any convictions was 87.6%.[16]
Part of the stop-question-and-frisk program is executed under Operation Clean Halls, a program in which private property owners grant officers prior permission to enter a property for enforcement against criminal activity.[17]
Some NYPD officers have objected publicly to the department's use of stop-question-and-frisk paperwork as a performance metric, which they claim encourages officers to overuse the practice and creates public hostility. Activists have described it as a form of quota, a characterization that department representatives have denied .[18][19]
In about 90% of cases, no evidence of wrongdoing is found, and the stopped person is let go.[20]
New York police officer Adrian Schoolcraft made extensive recordings in 2008 and 2009, which documented orders from NYPD officials to search and arrest black people in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. Schoolcraft, who brought accusations of misconduct to NYPD investigators, was transferred to a desk job and then involuntarily committed to a psychiatric hospital. In 2010, Schoolcraft sent his tapes to the Village Voice, which publicized them in a series of reports. Schoolcraft alleges that the NYPD has retaliated against him for exposing information about the stop and frisk policy.[21][22] The New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), LatinoJustice PRLDEF, and The Bronx Defenders filed a federal class action against this program.[17]
In response to allegations that the program unfairly targets African-American and Hispanic-American individuals, then-Mayor Michael Bloomberg has stated that it is because African-Americans and Hispanic-Americans are more likely to be violent criminals and victims of violent crime.[20]
On June 17, 2012, several thousand people marched silently down Manhattan's Fifth Avenue from lower Harlem to Bloomberg's Upper East Side townhouse in protest of the stop-question-and-frisk policy.[23] The mayor refused to end the program, contending that the program reduces crime and saves lives.[24]
In early July 2012, stop-question-and-frisk protesters who videotaped police stops in New York City were targeted by police for their activism. A "wanted"-style poster hung in a police precinct headquarters, without any allegation of criminal activity, accused one couple of being "professional agitators" whose "purpose is to portray officers in a negative way and too [sic] deter officers from conducting their responsibilities."[25] Police officers later surveilled and recorded the exit of persons from a "stop stop-and-frisk" meeting held at the couple's residence, allegedly in response to an emergency call of loitering and trespass.[26]
In October 2012, The Nation published an obscenity-filled audio recording that revealed two NYPD officers conducting a hostile and racially charged stop-and-frisk of an innocent teenager from Harlem. Following its upload, the recording soon turned viral, as it triggered outrage and "shed unprecedented light" on the practice of stop-and-frisk.[27]
Court casesEdit
On August 12, 2013, US District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin ruled that the stop and frisk practice (not the law itself) was unconstitutional and directed the police to adopt a written policy to specify where such stops are authorized.[28][29] Scheindlin appointed Peter L. Zimroth, a former chief lawyer for the City of New York, to oversee the program.[30] Mayor Bloomberg indicated that the city will appeal the ruling.[31] Scheindlin had denied pleas for a stay in her overthrow of the policing policy, saying that "Ordering a stay now would send precisely the wrong signal. It would essentially confirm that the past practices... were justified and based on constitutional police practices. It would also send the message that reducing the number of stops is somehow dangerous to the residents of this city."[32]
On October 31, 2013, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit blocked the order requiring changes to the New York Police Department's stop-and-frisk program and removed Judge Shira Scheindlin from the case.[33][34][35] On November 9, 2013, the city asked a federal appeals court to vacate Scheindlin's orders.[36][37] On November 22, 2013, the federal appellate court rejected the city's motion for a stay of the judge's orders.[38]
On July 30, 2014, Southern District Court Judge Analisa Torres denied the police unions' motions to intervene and granted the proposed modification of the District Court's August 2013 remedial decision.[35][39] A week later, the City of New York filed a motion to withdraw its appeal.[39] On August 13, 2014, the Second Circuit announced the cases will be argued on October 15, 2014.[35][40] On October 31, a three-judge panel on the Second Circuit unanimously ruled against the unions and allowed the city to proceed with its overhaul of the police department.[41]
A record 685,724 stops were made under the program in 2011; however, the number of stops made has been reduced in every year since then. In 2013, 191,558 stops were made.[4] Stop-and-frisk was an issue in the 2013 mayoral election. The race to succeed Bloomberg was won by Democratic Party candidate Bill de Blasio, who had pledged to reform the stop-and-frisk program, called for new leadership at the NYPD, an inspector general, and a strong racial profiling bill.[42] The number of stops continued to decrease over the next two years. In 2015, only 22,929 stops were made.[4]
In August 2014, Newsweek reported while stop-and-frisk numbers are down, they still happen disproportionately in New York City's African-American and Latino neighborhoods.[43]
Opponents of the program have complained that it is racist and failed to reduce robbery, burglary, or other crime, but it reduced the value of real estate.
Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer has argued that the program constitutes harassment of blacks and Latinos because it is disproportionately directed at them.[44]
The NYC Bar Association casts doubt on whether police were applying the "reasonable suspicion" rule when making stops:
- The sheer volume of stops that result in no determination of wrongdoing raise the question of whether police officers are consistently adhering to the constitutional requirement for reasonable suspicion for stops and frisks.[45]
Paul J. Browne, an NYPD spokesman, defended the practice:
- "Stops save lives, especially in communities disproportionately affected by crime, and especially among young men of color who last year represented 90 percent of murder victims and 96 percent of shooting victims in New York City."[46]
Then-mayor Michael Bloomberg defended the aspect of stopping young black and Hispanic men at rates that "do not reflect the city's overall census numbers:"
- That the proportion of stops generally reflects our crime numbers does not mean, as the judge wrongly concluded, that the police are engaged in racial profiling; it means they are stopping people in those communities who fit descriptions of suspects or are engaged in suspicious activity.[47]
Heather MacDonald denied that blacks are being stopped too often and claimed the opposite:
- The actual crime rates reveal that blacks are being significantly understopped, compared with their representation in the city's criminal population.[48]
NYC Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly wrote:
- The statistics reinforce what crime numbers have shown for decades: that blacks in this city were disproportionately the victims of violent crime, followed by Hispanics. Their assailants were disproportionally black and Hispanic too.[49]
Studies on the effectsEdit
A 2012 study finds few effects of stop-and-frisk on robbery and burglary rates in New York between 2003 and 2010.[8] According to the Washington Post fact-checker, the claim that stop-and-frisk contributed to a decline in the crime rate is unsubstantiated.[9]
A 2016 study found no evidence that stop-and-frisk was effective. One of the authors of that study, Jeffrey Fagan of Columbia University, said:
- "You can achieve really very positive crime control, reductions in crime, if you do stops using those probable-cause standards. If you just leave it up to the officers, based on their hunches, then they have almost no effect on crime."[50]
Fagan "found stops based on probable cause standards of criminal behavior were associated with a 5–9 percent decline in NYC crime in census block groups."[51]
Another 2016 study found that stop-and-frisk lowered crime, and that the size of the effect was "significant yet modest". The authors also noted that "the level of SQFs needed to produce meaningful crime reductions are costly in terms of police time and are potentially harmful to police legitimacy."[52] A 2017 study also reported that stop-and-frisk was associated with modest crime reductions, and cautioned against drawing strong causal conclusions.[53]
One study, controlling for relevant factors, finds "that properties exposed to more intense Stop & Frisk activity sold for significantly lower price."[54]

The American Health Care Act was not ready for prime time back in March at the time of its first "self-imposed deadline," Rep. Ron DeSantis, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, said Friday.
However, House conservatives and Republican leaders are getting closer to a consensus on healthcare reform.
"If you remember the March 23 date where it blew up, it was not any deadline, a self-imposed deadline," the Florida Republican told Fox News' "America's Newsroom" anchor Bill Hemmer.
"What has happened since then is members are talking to each other, and really the administration has done a good job."
Vice President Mike Pence, he continued, has been leading the work to determine how lawmakers can fulfill the promises made to the American people.
"For me, the core thing we have to do is deliver lower premiums and more choice on private insurance, because that's the reason why people dislike Obamacare," DeSantis said. "Their premiums have gone up and deductibles have gone up, [but] I think we can pass something relatively soon if we can get there."
The first time around though, lawmakers had promised to repeal Obamacare, but the AHCA left much of it in place, said DeSantis.
"We're trying to repeal as much of it as we can so we can reinvigorate private markets and bring down premiums for people," the congressman said. "I think every Republican in the House right now is already on record and voted to repeal Obamacare in its entirety, so I think we have to fulfill our promises to the voters."
In other matters, DeSantis has sent a letter to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson to determine the status of chemical weapons in Syria.
The American people had been told by Obama administration officials, including ex-national security adviser Susan Rice, that chemical weapons had been removed from Syria before Obama left office, said DeSantis, but that's not the case.
"We were given assurances that Assad had moved on from the chemical weapons and it was in the clear," DeSantis said. "We have some combat advisors of our own in the region. I think it's important to know what potential threats they face."

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 18.104.22.168

Gov. Rick Perry today announced that Apple will expand its presence in Texas with a $304 million investment in a new campus in Austin that will create more than 3,600 new jobs. The new campus will more than double the size of Apple's workforce in Texas over the next decade, supporting the company's growing operations in the Americas with expanded customer support, sales and accounting functions for the region. In exchange for Apple's commitment to create these new jobs in Texas, the state has offered Apple an investment of $21 million over ten years through the Texas Enterprise Fund (TEF).
