Edited by Gulcin and Burhan Kandemir* During the week, all Turkish dailies reported news about protests that started in Istanbul's Taksim Square.
The protests started as a small demonstration against the demolition of Taksim's Gezi Park, evolved into clashes between protesters and police due to excessive police force used against demonstrators.
The Hurriyet Daily News summarized the ongoing events in Turkey as "Timeline of Gezi Park protests":
On Sunday June 8, soccer fans from all colors, marched to the Taksim Square in a historic move in Turkish sports history -- when different soccer team fans get together, they usually fight. Most of the dailies at night, hundreds of thousands of people were at the Taksim district, but there were no police and no intervention. Elsewhere in Istanbul and Ankara, there were fiery clashes.
On Monday June 9, Taksim Square was the scene of a massive Gezi Park gathering, while Turkish Prime Minister Mr. Erdogan gave six separate speeches in Ankara, Mersin and Adana. At night, Ankara and Adana witnessed heavy clashes between police and protesters.
On Tuesday June 10, police moved on the capital's Kugulu Park, and later on at night, crowds wanting to march toward Kizilay Square were subjected to tear gas. Thirteen suspects in Turkey's southern city of Adana were released after testifying to Adana's public prosecutor following charges of provoking riots that had landed them in court. Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Mr. Arinc said representatives of the movement would meet with the prime minister on June 12.
On Wednesday June 11, Riot police entered Taksim Square after a ten-day quite in the harshest crackdown since the movement started. Police used tear gas and water cannons throughout the clashes, which lasted all day and well into the night.
The Istanbul governor called on the Gezi Park protesters to return home, saying he no longer could guarantee their safety.* The Hurriyet Daily News reported on Thursday that Turkish Prime Minister Mr. Recep Tayyip Erdogan said he did not recognize "decisions made by the European Parliament" in response to the Parliament's session on Turkey on June 12.
The European Parliament, shortly after Mr. Erdogan's angry words, passed a harshly worded proposal against the Turkish government about the recent Park protest events.
Turkey's European Affairs Ministry also criticized the European Parliament's attitude, releasing a statement accusing the Parliament of "getting excited in the heat of the moment."* On Friday, Anatolia News Agency reported that spokesperson for Turkey's ruling Justice and Development Party said the Turkish government will comply with a court decision that suspended the demolition of Gezi Park.
He was speaking after a late night meeting between Turkish Prime Minister Mr. Erdogan and a delegation of 16 representatives of the protesters in Ankara that lasted nearly four hours.
Mr. Erdogan held a surprise meeting for a second consecutive day with new delegation from Istanbul.
Referring to a court ruling on the suspension of the planned Artillery Barracks project, which was set to be built in the place of the Park, the Spokesperson said that in case the appeal fails, the site will be kept as a park. In the event that the project receives a green light after the appeal, the government will organize a referendum regarding the Park's fate.
Mr. Erdogan had previously defied the court's ruling by questioning its impartiality and had insisted that the decision of constructing the historic barracks was irreversible.* The Turkish daily Hurriyet Daily News reported on Friday that the European Union has welcomed today the Turkish government's commitment to suspend the redevelopment plans for Istanbul's Gezi Park after late night talks with the representatives of the Park protesters.
"We welcome number of constructive and positive signals coming from Turkey over the past 24 hours, including further meeting of Turkish Prime Minister Mr. Erdogan with the representatives of the civil society," European Union Commissioner Mr. Stefen Fule's Spokesperson said in a statement.
"We have seen clear commitment to suspend the construction plans for the Park while the appeals court decides on the case," he added. Spokesperson also welcomed investigations into the disproportionate use of force against peaceful protesters.
The statement came after days of heated exchanges between Ankara and Brussels over the repression of the protests across Turkey.* Latest news that we are getting is that there are plans for massive pro government rallies in Istanbul for the weekend.
Edited by Colleen Clark* The National Public Radio program "The World" recently had a report on a chamber orchestra in Turkey's south eastern city of Diyarbakir.
The program also talked about western classical music in Turkey, and that it is still a hard sell in Turkey although ninety years has passed since the foundation of the republic and an emphasis on the westernization of the cuntry.
The fine arts school in Diyarbakir was the first in this underdeveloped region, the National Public Radio Program says. It has attracted some high profile support. Thousands of donors helped finance the construction of the building. Pop singer Sezen Aksu sold one of her houses to raise $350,000 for the project.
For many Westernized Turks, promoting European classical music is a way to spread the values of western civilization. the National Public Radio Program says.

Last year in the same term, the number was below 900,000, according to the AnatoliA News Agency.
According to data provided by the Nevsehir Governor's Office, the Goreme Open Air Museum drew the highest number of tourists. 137,000 people saw it.

The film, "Winds", which will be released on June 21 with English subtitles, features the story of Gokceada Greeks, who had to leave the island because of the population exchange of the 1920s.
The main character of the film is the island itself; the other characters are Murat, who records the sounds on the island, and Madame Styliani.
Speaking to the Hurriyet Daily News, Evci said he had decided to shoot the film because, "When I went to Gokceada many years ago for a photo shoot, I saw abandoned houses as well the furniture and chests still kept in the houses which didn't even have a roof. These objects showed that people had left their houses in a hurry. 'What made these people leave their house like this?' I thought."

The Nazim Oratorio, which famous pianist Fazil Say composed for the poet in 2011, was performed by the Wuppertal Symphony Orchestra under the baton of chief conductor Ibrahim Yazici.
Accompanied by the orchestra, theater actor Genco Erkal read poems by Nazim, as Banu Boke, Thomas Laske and Camille Mocell performed as soloists and Emre Elivar performed on piano.
Mr. Say, who previously announced that he would attend the program, could not make it because of a medical operation.

"The Turkish Ambassador's Residence and Cultural History of Washington, D.C.," is about the culture and jazz history of Washington, published by Istanbul Culture University (IKU). Bahar Akinguc Gunver, the president of the trustee committee of Istanbul Culture University and the authors of the book ? Skip Moskey, Caroline Mesrobian and John Edward ? are some of the important figures that gave speeches during the event. The guests of honor at the event were Mica Ertegun, her niece Leyla Ertegun and Lisa McCowan, the granddaughter of the first owner of the house, Edward Hamlin Everett. The house is considered to be the most characteristic building of the beginning of the 20th century. The building is on Sheridan Circle and was constructed by the multimillionaire Edward Hamlin Everett. The house was built as a winter home for the family in 1910. George Oakley Totten, the architect of the house, is the same architect who designed the AmericanConsular Building in Istanbul in 1908. Therefore the Everett House has shadows of Ottoman-style architecture.
The fortune of the Everett family deteriorated markedly with the Great Depression in the 1930s. After the death of Edward Hamlin Everett, in 1932 the house was sold to Turkey with all the valuable furniture and paintings as the Turkish Embassy Building for 402,000 dollars. The history of Washington, the life of Everett, who was called the bottle king, the architecture of the building, the art pieces in the house and the story of the children of diplomats who turned Washington into a jazz city are covered in the book. The most important part of the book describes the period Ambassador Mehmet Munir Ertegun served, from 1934 to 1944.
His children, Ahmet and Nesuhi Ertegun, turned the embassy building into the jazz center of the city and opened its doors to African American musicians.
From 1939 to 1944 with the jam sessions held in the embassy, the racist environment in Washington was reduced. The jazz culture of the time came alive by virtue of Ahmet Ertegun. The Ellington Orchestra and Court Basie Band are only two of the important groups who gave concerts at the house. June/13/2013

The awards promote excellence in the study of architecture, reward talent and encourage architectural debate worldwide. The project is displaying a total of 98 projects from the Royal Institute of British Architects President awards.
The exhibition, which continues until July 12, also displays the winners of Bronze, Silver and Dissertation Medals. Winners were announced in December at the annual President's Medals ceremony at the Royal Institute of British Architects President headquarters in London. According to the written statement of Royal Institute of British Architects President, "Each year, the judging panels select up to 16 entries that receive awards. Medals are awarded in three categories: the Bronze Medal for best design project at Part 1, the Silver Medal for best design project at Part 2 and the Dissertation Medal. In addition, there is a maximum of three commendations in each category.
Each year, an exhibition of student work is displayed in London at the time of the ceremony (which normally takes place on the first Wednesday in December). Royal Institute of British Architects President commissions graphic designers to produce two-dimensional printed panels from selected entries (images and text) and invites students to submit three-dimensional models. In addition, a slideshow of entries is displayed and, where possible, films related to the submissions can also be viewed on large screens.

The workshop, which focused on the Gezi Park events, hosted several artists including the former dean of the Hacettepe Fine Arts College, Professor Zafer Gencaydin, the founder of Hangar Arts Formation Cezmi Orhan, Cebrail Otgun and Atilla Ilkyaz.
Gencaydin emphasized the disregard to the arts and artist taking place in Turkey and added, "Having a population of 76 million without any Post Modern Art Museums and having only 78 Arts Associations countrywide, after all having 35 thousand mosque making associations, these clearly show where we are as a country. If a society is ignorant, senseless and devoid of arts, it is considered to be barbarian. Youth at Taksim are using disproportionate intelligence. They are much more intelligent than the police and the statesmen. They have such interesting discoveries that amaze the society. In an environment in which everybody was in despair, the extraordinary movement for freedom that young people did made us all proud."
Orhan, who has featured masked police and the resisting people in his work, reminded us that artists are the witnesses of their age and said, "An artist that does not understand and absorb the time they are living cannot turn those into an artwork. I am not doing these to witness the age only but my feelings, emotions and intuitions don't let me do otherwise."

The manager of the Gallipoli Historical National Park, Ozan Hacialioglu, said this center was one of the prestige projects of the Ministry of Forestry and Waterworks.
The center aims to be a memorial for fallen soldiers and war veterans and to show youth how the fatherland was saved from enemy occupation. "We have brought the attention of society to the Gallipoli peninsula with the help of the investments made by the state in the past seven years. We are hosting an average of 2 million people on the peninsula annually. National solidarity, spirituality and national unity are developed with the help of area guides who explain the Canakkale Victory to visitors. Canakkale has always been the building block of our nation and is the basis of the Turkish Republic. We can live freely and comfortably today thanks to our grandfathers who gave their lives for this land in the past. We believe that the Canakkale Legend Demonstration Center will have more visitors in 2015, the 100th anniversary of the Canakkale Victory."

According to information provided by the ministry, the TEDA Council and Evaluation Committee, which held meetings in May and November last year, examined the applications and decided to give support to 366 works last year.
Therefore 1,350 works were supported in 54 languages and 57 countries between 2005 and 2012. Among these works, 880 have been published so far.
Also, translation workshops began to be organized with the goal of gaining new translated works and translators.
Within the TEDA project, which has been carried out for many years by countries with a rich literary accumulation, 39 works were supported in the first year in Turkey. The interest shown in the project continued in 2006. The number of countries that applied for the project increased. Among these countries were Finland, Ukraine, Brazil, Macedonia, Austria, Bulgaria, Iran, Taiwan and Russia.
The number of applications for TEDA projects greatly increased in 2007 because of the fact that Orhan Pamuk won the Nobel Prize in 2006 and Turkey was the guest country at Frankfurt Book Fair in 2008 as well as interest of readers in Turkish writers abroad. As a result, 202 works were supported in the same year. In 2008, 184 works were supported, 140 in 2009 and 185 in 2010.

The artists and activists attending the festival aim to unveil the cultural heritage of the area. Project artists, art operators and academics from France, Georgia and Turkey gathered together for "Dancing Across Borders" in the Hopa district of Artvin. Workshops, performances, presentations and events will take place during the project, which will enliven the Black Sea region from June 12 to 19. The project is expecting the participation of Hopa and Batumi citizens, cultural initiatives operating in different disciplines from the Hopa-Batumi region, local artists, Turkish, Georgian and European artists, art initiatives in Turkey, Georgia and France, international contemporary art groups and everyone interested in culture and art.
The dance types in the region have many similarities. Despite this, the public is not very familiar with new dance types such as contemporary and modern dance. The Hopa district of Artvin is certainly a cosmopolitan city and a central passage point with its proximity to the Batumi city of Georgia. Thus, it is not surprising that several artists from Europe and Turkey turned their interest to Hopa for all these reasons. The "Dancing Across Borders" project has launched with the cooperation of art institutions from Turkey, France and Georgia. Move after 2010.
The primary purpose of the project is to create body awareness with "dance and action" themed events. Throughout the project, artists coming from different cities of France, Georgia and Turkey will include the local community in the dance performances, workshops, presentations and events.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Movies' started by todd stone, Oct 16, 2001.
The movie screams excellence.
Any opinions?
Morgan Freemans best imo.
Since I am most definitely not a well-spoken critic, I will simply say I couldn't agree with you more! What a great movie!
The movie is good and gets better with repeated viewings. I'll go on a limb here and say I thought The Green Mile was better. Not by much, but still better. I would still give them both **** stars though. And to all those people that say Shawshank should have won Best Picture in 1994, sorry, but that should have gone to Pulp Fiction.
Frank Darabont directed a real jem in Shawshank. It's one of the only DVD's I have which I gave repeated viewings to (because I'm constantly buying and viewing new flicks). Yes, it is one of the most perfect movies around IMO.
I would disagree with Gilbert and say that Shawshank was better than the Green Mile. I loved Shawshank. plain and simple.
"I was born to murder the world." -Nix (Lord of Illusions)
My Home Page http://www.geocities.com/masternix/DVD.html
My List O' DVDs:
My vote goes for Shawshank over the Green Mile as well.
Shawshank was nicely done. The ending bookend segment from the Green Mile changed the tone of the story and gave it a downer ending that was not needed.
Every man is my superior, in that I may learn from him.
[Edited last by Lou Sytsma on October 16, 2001 at 09:57 AM]
I love the movie, and I agree with Gilbert that it gets better with repeated viewings...one of the few movies to do so.
Green Mile was great, but Shawshank was still better IMO.
Since you asked for opinions, I'll venture mine. Obviously, from the other replies you've received so far, you aren't alone in your admiration of the film. But I have no idea what anyone sees in this film. Words cannot express how much I HATE this film. When I watch SHAWSHANK (I've seen it twice), I see nothing but cheap sentiment and cartoon villains; I feel like I'm the one serving the life sentence as each agonizing minute passes. I find nothing interesting or compelling about anything that happens on screen. I truly am puzzled by why the film is so well regarded. I know that there are others who share my distain for the movie, but around this forum, mine is certainly a minority opinion. But you did ask.
Well, I like it. Granted, TSR is simplistic, but it's undeniably entertaining. I find it to be quite involving despite its two-plus hour running time.
He thought on homeland, the big timber, the air thin and chill all the year long. Tulip poplars so big through the trunk they put you in mind of locomotives set on end. He thought of getting home and building him a cabin on Cold Mountain so high that not a soul but the nighthawks passing across the clouds in autumn could hear his sad cry. Of living a life so quiet he would not need ears. And if Ada would go with him, there might be the hope, so far off in the distance he did not even really see it, that in time his despair might be honed off to a point so fine and thin that it would be nearly the same as vanishing.
-- Charles Frazier, Cold Mountain
This is a real gem of a movie with great writing and great performances down the line from Tim Robbins, Morgan Freeman, James Whitmore, et. al. The theme of hope comes out more clearly than in any other prison movie I have seen. This movie also has a great soundtrack, by Thomas Newman, I think.
It's strange just how many posts about Shawshank are popping up suddenly after so many years of the movie being out but I agree, it is one of the 20 best movies of all time in my opinion. Very well made. Great acting etc.
My Favourite Movie
Oh yeah ... Shawshank is perfect. Top 5 on my list.
The Hole
Shawshank is perfectly crafted and is an excellent movie.
I also agree Shawshank is better than The Green Mile. Very, very well done.
"This is not a drill. This is the apocolypse!"
My Extensive DVD collection.
I find that Shawshank stands up to repeated viewings. Never get tied of seeing this great film. Definitely in my top three.
Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for The Green Mile. I did like the film when I saw it, but it gets tiring after a second or third viewing.
Amazon Hot 100 DVD's
I too loved Shawshank, and think it a better movie than The Green Mile.
What's weird is that I think I liked the book The Green Mile better than Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption. But the movies are flip-flopped. Weird, maybe TGM just doesn't translate as well with all of its biblical allegories.
Perfect. Top 5 material.
Carlo - I concur with you. I like the Shawshank movie better but I prefer the Green Mile book more.
Darabont was in a real groove with Shawshank and the changes he made for Shawshank were on the mark.
Unfortunately for the TGM he fumbled the ball a little and inadvertently lessened the impact of the movie because of it.
not showing the last rites scenes for the prisoners, and in the ending bookend sequence not showing Mr. Jingles passing on and giving Tom Hank's character the knowledge that he too will pass on eventually.
IHMO, of course.
Every man is my superior, in that I may learn from him.
I have never managed to sit through that movie to the end. It lacked convincing sincerity even though the cast was excellent. I'm the only person I know that didn't think much of the film.
On the other hand, I enjoyed the Green Mile. It wasn't the best movie, it wasn't the best book, but it was definitely moving.
Perfect. And I mean absolutely perfect with no flaws and no changes that I could see making it better.

DFI Announces Plans for U.S. Plant
FARGO, N.D. — Dynamic Food Ingredients, Corporation. Dynamic Food Ingredients, Corporation (DFI) today announced that it will build an industrial scale polyol manufacturing facility near one of ADM's wet-mill corn processing facilities in the U.S. The DFI facility will position DFI as the world's largest supplier of erythritol. The erythritol plant will be located adjacent to one of Archer Daniels Midland Company's (NYSE: ADM) existing corn processing facilities, which will serve as an over-the-fence source of raw materials. The exact location is yet to be determined.
"Securing a reliable source of quality raw materials is one of the final steps in scaling DFI's patented erythritol technology," said Paul Magnotto, DFI's Chief Executive Officer. "We look forward to providing sweeteners to the market that are produced in a sustainable, environmentally friendly, and less costly manner."
DFI's patented technology is based on a process originally discovered at Purdue University, which replaces chemicals with electricity. Since that discovery, DFI has proved the technology on a commercial scale with a pilot plant in Buffalo, New York.
"This technology is a ground shift in the carbohydrate world," said Jonathan Stapley, Chief Technology Officer and co-inventor of the process. "DFI's first product, erythritol, is also unique among carbohydrates for its near-zero calorie content, sweetening power, and growing list of possible health benefits."
Construction on the facility is anticipated to commence in the summer of 2015.

Regional Reviews: Florida - West Coast
Yank! A WWII Love Story
Also see Bill's reviews of Red, White & Bello! and Chess
Yank is the story of a group of raw recruits, including our hero Stu, who is gay but hasn't emotionally connected with that yet. He becomes romantically involved with Mitch, also gay but in his mind just a "regular guy." Stu also connects with Artie, a photographer for Yank Magazine who shows him the way around the gay underground.
Brian Craft as Stu captures the effeminate nature of the character while weaving it into the unworldliness of a Midwestern farmer. His fine singing completes an excellent performance. William E. Masuck, well loved on Manatee Players stages, plays Mitch strong, manly, but still attracted to Stu. He also sings strongly, scoring with "Rememb'ring You" and joining Brian Craft in "A Couple of Regular Guys." Brian Finnerty as Artie comes very close to stealing the show. Artie is primarily a dancing role and he taps away any concerns I had about whether or not Manatee Players could properly cast this role. He is also credited with choreography, which means that if others in the cast dance well, and they do, he gets the credit. His acting is on par with his terrific singing and dancing. Chris Hines as Tennessee, David Addis as Czechowski, Joseph Rebella as Rotelli, Phil Morehouse as Cohen and two other roles, and Josh Roberson (I cannot, will not believe that he is a high school freshman even if it is at Manatee School for the Arts. He nails the Boston accent) form a very strong ensemble for the songs "Yank," "Polishing Shoes," "Betty," and "Your Squad Is Your Squad." Katie Eichler is delightful in eight different women's roles. She understands the style of the music (pastiche of the era), but because women's voices often do not project quite as well as men's (especially in the Kiwanis Theater), she might be discreetly miked. Jay Poppe and Brian Strubbe play several roles to complete the strong cast.
Much of the credit for the fine production must go to director Kenn C. Rapczynski, who came onto my radar a few years ago with an incredible performance as Jean Valjean for Manatee Players and has followed up with other wonderful performances. Now I find out he is a director of no mean talent, as well. The script is historically accurate and Mr. Rapczynski has done his research to properly put numerous small details into proper perspective. As noted above, Brian Finnerty's choreography is a big plus and musical direction by Michelle Neal is spot on, in synch with the period style. Set design by Ralph Nurmela is highly effective. The main set piece of a bunk bed is effectively used to define other locations and strongly suggests the WWII setting with painted steel pipe. Costume design by Georgina Willmott is equal to the best of her work for Manatee Players. Ms. Eichler's outfits and especially wigs are excellent. Lighting design by Patrick Bedell illuminates the emotional content of the story. This production brings a new level of quality to the Kiwanis Theater.
I was pre-disposed toward Yank and Manatee Players have not let me down. I have been telling everyone I see, people I know who love theater and GLBT friends and acquaintances, not to miss this show. Thank you to Manatee Players and Rick Kerby for the courage to produce this show which might not be to the tastes of all of their regular audience.
Manatee Players presents Yank! A WWII Love Story through March 6, 2016, at Manatee Center for the Performing Arts, 502 3rd Ave W., Bradenton; 941-748-0111, manateeplayers.com.

At the outbreak of WWII, the U.S. Army rented 1,600 acres from various landowners in the Haiku area. The principal owners were: Hawaiian Pineapple Co. (490 acres), Maui Agricultural Co. (397 acres) and the Copp Estate (220 acres). Thirteen different owners accounted for the remaining 493 acres. The rental for the site was $15,000 per year, prorated among the owners.

Trimble County Middle School Principal Mike Genton has announced recognition of the sixth grade Students of the Month and Teacher and Staff Member Spotlights for January.
"We are very proud of these folks and celebrate their hard work and dedication to TCMS," Genton said. "Great job!"
30 Years Ago (March 4, 1982)

After a pause for President's Day, the Legislature moved into the second half of the 2012 General Assembly Session. I had visits from groups representing adult day health care providers and developmental disabilities. Many Boy Scout troops came to Frankfort for the annual Boy Scout Day at the Capitol. It was a pleasure to see these civic-minded boys and young men and their dedicated troop leaders and parents.
In each legislative session, the Kentucky House of Representatives spends a considerable amount of time on those who comprise our youngest generation, looking for ways to help them at home and in the classroom.
Last week was a high-water mark in both of those areas. On Wednesday, for example, the House of Representatives put its unanimous support behind legislation that would make it illegal to intentionally view child pornography.
The late American essayist and poet Ralph Waldo Emerson once observed, "The reward of a thing well done is to have done it."
That sentiment would likely have brought little solace to the Trimble County Lady Raiders after a hard-fought, one-point loss to Oldham County's Lady Colonels in a first-round game of the KHSAA 29th District Tournament last Wednesday.

* Vetro says to deposit guarantee in a few days
* Vetro's Taci confident of a deal, sees lot more work
* Albania to be flexible if Vetro pays guarantee bond
TIRANA, Dec 11 (Reuters) - Vetro Energy, an Albanian-U.S. firm that made the top bid for Albanian state-owned oil company Albpetrol, said on Tuesday it would soon make a deposit as a guarantee so that the 850 million euro ($1.1 billion) sale can go ahead.
On Monday, a week after a second deadline to sign a contract expired, Albania held off signing a sale contract for Albpetrol again, saying Vetro had failed to deposit 20 percent of its offer in cash or an equivalent to cash, which is required to back the sale.
Deputy Energy Minister Sokol Dervishaj said the government would give Vetro another chance if it made the deposit.
Albanian oilman Rezart Taci, who has emerged as Vetro's majority shareholder, said in a statement that Vetro had asked the government for "a number of additional documents".
In return, the government demanded a guarantee, "which Vetro Energy is pleased to provide and will be in place within the next few days," he said.
He added that "a guarantee of this nature is customarily submitted only after a formal contract is signed" and that there was still "significant work ahead" to thrash out a deal.
Vetro had offered to buy 100 percent of Albpetrol for 850 million euros, which means its deposit to guarantee the contract would amount to 170 million euros.
"These are complex discussions and there is a great deal of detail involved. The delay is not entirely surprising in such circumstances, and I am very confident that we will finalise negotiations and reach a successful conclusion," Taci said.
The government welcomed Taci's pledge with caution.
"If Vetro deposits an unconditional contract guarantee bond in a few days as it officially committed today, we'll have the adequate flexibility to consider the fulfilment of their expressed commitment and continue with the negotiations," Dervishaj, also the sale board chairman, told Reuters.
Four years ago, Taci's Anika Enterprises teamed with Refinery Associates of Texas and Mercuria Energy Group to buy Albanian refiner ARMO for 125 million euros. ARMO is Albpetrol's biggest debtor at 5,374,445,691 lek ($49.7 million), according to the state audit commission.

- Significance: The Tieton Ranger Station includes eleven (11) buildings which are properties in a thematic group National Register of Historic Places nomination comprising Forest Service Administration structures built between 1933-1942 under the auspices of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), on National Forest system lands in the States of Oregon and Washington. The thematic group as a whole and the four subject properties of this documentation are significant because of their direct association with the political and legislative events of the New Deal and the CCC, their associations with the establishment of the USDA Forest Service and its stewardship of forest resources, and their embodiment of distinctive characteristics of the rustic style of architecture particular to the Forest Service in the Pacific Northwest Regional and exclusive to the Depression Era, 193301942.

Please use the following steps to determine whether you need to fill out a call slip in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room to view the original item(s). In some cases, a surrogate (substitute image) is available, often in the form of a digital image, a copy print, or microfilm.
Is the item digitized? (A thumbnail (small) image will
be visible on the left.)
Yes, the item is digitized. Please use the digital image in preference to requesting the original. All images can be viewed at a large size when you are in any reading room at the Library of Congress. In some cases, only thumbnail (small) images are available when you are outside the Library of Congress because the item is rights restricted or has not been evaluated for rights restrictions.
As a preservation measure, we generally do not serve an original item when a digital image is available. If you have a compelling reason to see the original, consult with a reference librarian. (Sometimes, the original is simply too fragile to serve. For example, glass and film photographic negatives are particularly subject to damage. They are also easier to see online where they are presented as positive images.)
No, the item is not digitized. Please go to #2.
Do the Access Advisory or Call Number fields above indicate that
a non-digital surrogate exists, such as microfilm or copy prints?
Yes, another surrogate exists. Reference staff can direct you to this surrogate.
No, another surrogate does not exist. Please go to #3.
If you do not see a thumbnail image or a reference to another surrogate, please fill out a call slip in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room. In many cases, the originals can be served in a few minutes. Other materials require appointments for later the same day or in the future. Reference staff can advise you in both how to fill out a call slip and when the item can be served.
To contact Reference staff in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room, please use our Ask A Librarian service or call the reading room between 8:30 and 5:00 at 202-707-6394, and Press 3.

TYLER (KYTX) - Tyler Police are finding ways to streamline crime reports that could ultimately keep you and your family more safe.
Say your car was broken into and someone took items inside, but you didn't see it happen.
The crime reporting process can be lengthy and all you get is a case number for your insurance.
Now police say you can do that online, saving time, money and man power.
"I went out the next morning to go to work and my briefcase was missing," says LaDawn Fletcher.
Fletcher was the victim of theft, someone stole her bag out of her van while it was sitting in her driveway just off of West Houston Street in Tyler six months ago.
She didn't lock her doors, police say you should always remember to do that.
"The most annoying thing about being a victim of petty crime like this is the time it takes to do everything else," says Fletcher.
She didn't file a police report, but says she would if it had been as easy as it is now.
Officer Don Martin with the Tyler Police Department explains how people can file a report online.
"Specific reports, covers all thefts, vandalism, criminal mischief, lost property, vehicle burglaries," says Ofc. Martin.
Officer Martin says it's easier for people to fill out the online form, and get the information reviewed by an officer for a case number that will be emailed to you.
It saves the department money.
"Each time an officer goes out to investigate a report like that, it would be around $42 savings per report," says Ofc. Martin.
And it keeps more officers on the streets.
"We can keep officers freed up to handle more serious calls," says Ofc. Martin.
Something that would've made the theft from Fletcher's van a lot easier to handle.
"The ease would've mattered," says Fletcher.
But she's used it as a learning experience for he, and her family.
"I have to explain to my kids all the time that they can't leave things in the car like the iPad, because I know people do peer in and see what's in there," says Fletcher.
Police do say you can always have an officer come out if you would prefer.
This is just a way to get things moving more quickly, and keep others safe.
The online reporting opened up Wednesday to the public.
Tyler Police have had it in place in a testing phase for a few weeks and say it's worked seamlessly for reporting.

San Marcos' Todd Southwell owes Connecticut's Ted Christopher a debt of gratitude.
A poor racing weekend by Christopher improved Southwell's chances for a national NASCAR title.
Southwell finished sixth and first Saturday in a pair of 50-lap Super Late Model races at Irwindale Speedway, boosting his track lead to 56 points over Andrew Phipps. Southwell improved to sixth nationally in Division III of the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series with 874 points after 14 races. He trails the leader, Minnesota's Donny Reuvers (16 races), by 130 points.
"We were pleased with the whole night," Southwell said. "But we still have to look at winning the (track) championship. We can't lose sight of that. If we drop the ball on the track championship, it doesn't matter either way."
Southwell has several reasons to be optimistic about winning the national title, but he is remaining level-headed.
First and foremost, NASCAR counts only a driver's top 16 races, meaning several bad finishes can be thrown out. Southwell has four races remaining before the Sept. 17 cutoff date, including a pair of 50-lappers on Aug. 13. He would like to eliminate showings of eighth and 25th place.
But he also has the advantage of racing at Irwindale, which routinely hosts fields of 21 to 30 cars, thus earning drivers a bonus of 20 points per race.
That means a victory at Irwindale is worth 70 points versus 50 or 60 at tracks with fewer cars.
"Our bonus points are really helping us," Southwell said. "I just saw Ted Christopher get bumped out. It's such a tough thing right now. There's a bigger prize ($25,000) if we can consistently stay in the top three or four. That's a nice chunk of change and prestige."
Christopher has the most points in Division III, with 1,038. But rules limit national championship eligibility to those who win a track title. Christopher splits his driving between two tracks.
After finishing 19th and 21st in a pair of races at Stafford Motor Speedway in Stafford Springs, Conn., on Friday, Christopher fell behind Todd Owen (786 points, 11th nationally) for that track's lead.
Another milestone for Said?
Carlsbad's Boris Said will try to qualify for another monumentalevent in the "milestone year" of his career: the NASCAR Nextel CupAllstate 400 at the Brickyard.
Said, who tested at Indianapolis Motor Speedway three weeks ago, is coming off a victory Sunday in the inaugural Trans-Am race at San Jose. He followed that victory with a Tuesday test session at Watkins Glen, N.Y., where he will race in the NASCAR Sirius at the Glen race Aug. 14.
But heading into qualifying Saturday, Said knows there's a chance he might not make the cut —— 53 cars are attempting to fill out the 43-car field for Sunday's Nextel Cup race. He is hoping for an early draw in qualifying because times are expected to be faster in the morning.
"If I make it in Indy, that's the last world-renowned track I haven't raced in," Said said. "The things I've done this year, (winning at Nurburgring and racing in the Daytona 500) have far surpassed anything I've done in my career."
You can add last week's victory to the list. The event, which was part of the undercard for the inaugural Champ Car World Series event in San Jose, drew more than 50,000 spectators.
"It was great," Said said. "It was an unbelievable event. First-time events like that are usually pretty hard to put together, but it was a big crowd and a great event."
Halliday 'gutted'
Rancho Santa Fe's Liz Halliday was nearing the end of her second run in the Proximus 24 Hours of Spa on Saturday when her car was forced off the track by a fellow GT1 car and stalled. She eventually quit.
Halliday had four laps left of her run in the Lister Storm when another vehicle dove inside her car as she entered the turn, leaving Halliday with a difficult decision.
"I am gutted," she said on the Lister Web site. "I was turning in and committing to the corner, so I couldn't get to the apex. I was left with only two solutions: crashing into the other car or going off through the gravel trap. Unfortunately the car got stuck, the engine stalled and I could not restart it."
Pit passes
Carlsbad's Ron Capps reached the finals of the Fram AutoliteNHRA Nationals in Sonoma last weekend and is in fourth place in theFunny Car standings, 88 points behind Robert Hight. … Escondido'sMartin Christensen and Valley Center's Dave Mason drove to athird-place finish in the Class 1 portion of last weekend's SCORELas Vegas Terrible's Cup I race. Darren Hardesty (Ramona) wassecond overall in the Class 10 standings. … Murrieta's RussWernimont was third overall in the RWD Extreme Trucks & SUV'sat the Perris Auto Speedway.

The cause of PSN's problems has yet to be officially announced, although there are plenty of theories. Some blame the hackers. Others blame disgruntled Sony employees, 200 of which were given the axe from Sony's online division at the end of March this year. Whatever the reason, PSN was brought to its knees. That means no multiplayer, no downloads, and no demos. Nothing. Hey, but at least Netflix still works. Still, that doesn't give customers much confidence in a digital library when the network can be brought down without warning.
first outage in 5 years, and due to it being hacked now makes it nonfuture proof?
quit writing articles, ur making the gaming journalism and industry look bad
you have very valid points mr article man. the future is gay if games go download only. u think hackers are bad now. give it a few years itll get soooo much worse. nothings hack proof. at least not yet. and to be honest people always find a way. im just waitin on some nerd to hack a nuculear missle base and end the world..
cloud is useless to me but some are just so happy about it. to each their own. and when retail packaging ceases ill stop gaming. sorry, but i like to own my purchases
I don't see discs disappearing for a long time. I just see more advancements occurring, but not it fading. This isn't just about Sony, but its a general observation. In its current state, it just isnt practical to have digital release only.
Sure, giving the option is always welcomed. But removing that would have its consequences, all things considered.
rubbish, songs are digital, easy to get and quick, and you still can go buy them on cd in the store, yes on CD for the love of god.
So while digital is a great option now and in the future and it will only expand and get better there will always be the need to have the hardcopy in some fashion.

Night Feeder Trailer (1988)
31 October 1988 Horror 86 mins
A hateful and massively enjoyable shot-on-video darkwave horror blast from the leather-clad armpits of the Bay Area. This gore-scarred, creature-fueled whodunnit culminates in one of the most rewarding slasher reveals in camcorder history, but the journey is every bit as powerful. Especially when the singer of coal-hearted gothpunk combo The Nuns stares directly into the camera and croons: "You SLIT your WRISTS. You fuckin' BITCH." A staggering celebration of drugs, fear and new wave rage, Night Feeder was completed at the tail end of San Francisco's robust post-punk era and was only ever released on PAL-format VHS in Poland. Featuring effects that rival Hollywood's best gore-monsterwork, it's a nasal, vicious battle cry and one of the best homemade horror films you'll ever see, hands down.

COSBOA today released a paper that shows how innovative ideas can be used in tandem with traditional economic rationalism to get the economy on track.
We believe that economic rationalism based on old text books and big business needs might be fine when things are good but when economic crisis comes along, pilule as they do, tadalafil and big businesses tax dodging is having a bigger impact on the economy then it is time for tax innovation. It is time to do something that sends a message to small business people who are the 96% of businesses, the 90% of employers, the innovators, the doers, the lifters – a message that it is the whole government, not just small business minister Bruce Billson, that is really focusing on small business, that it isn't just rhetoric.
COSBOA has provided Bruce Billson and through him the Treasurer with a summary of innovative and traditional ideas that will assist small business people to grow if they wish, to proposer and to employ more people.
We believe our ideas are not just on tax but also on employment, training, and local economic development. For too long the government funded programs and support such as apprenticeship centres, employment service providers and training companies have focused on profit at the expense of the taxpayer. We need a new model and COSBOA is ready to inform that model. This budget can seen a start on depth to policy solutions not lazy laissez fair policy.
Bruce Billson is the minister to go to, he is in the Treasury portfolio, he gets the economy like a real person not like a robotic economic rationalist and he is clever.
In summary COSBOA asks for
TAX options
Three options
150% depreciation rates on wages and purchases or
Across the board company tax break of 5% for small businesses, or
A 10% company tax for incorporated small businesses to assist them maintain profits in the company structure and leverage finance to assist growth
Removal of FBT on child care and gym membership to assist small business support employees with family and health needs
Collect GST on all purchases made from within Australia.
Employment and Training
A focus on Group Training Companies who provide support with administration on employment and training to small businesses, particularly with apprenticeships.
Support to key small business associations with funding of advisory services and planning activities for industry sectors on employment and training.
Provide options for Certificate II training in telecommunications to all employees, contractors and small business operators. A nation skilled in technology in a nation focused on the present and the future. Technology and telecommunications are foundation skills in the
Provide financial support to employers with apprenticeships to alleviate the extra costs recently imposed by the Fair Work Commission.
Local Economic Development
Provide funding for four trials on empowering local business communities (or on line business communities) to develop their own economic development plans that focus on business needs for training, feasibility studies and support to firms undergoing change.

SOS response protein UmuD regulates bacterial DNA replication in response to DNA damage
Lead Presenter: Michelle Silva
The alpha subunit of DNA polymerase III (DNA pol III) is the main replicative polymerase in Escherichia coli. Because alpha cannot copy damaged DNA, replication is stalled in presence of DNA lesions. To compensate, the cell initiates the SOS response, inducing the expression of at least 57 genes. The products of these genes are involved in DNA damage tolerance mechanisms, one of which is translesion synthesis (TLS), a process by which lesions are bypassed by specialized DNA polymerases with the ability to copy damaged DNA. Full-length UmuD, whose expression is regulated by the SOS response, inhibits DNA replication and prevents mutagenic TLS as part of a primitive DNA damage checkpoint, while the cleaved form UmuD facilitates mutagenesis. It has been suggested that UmuD participates in a primitive DNA damage checkpoint but its exact contribution is still unclear. In order to understand the role of UmuD in regulating DNA replication, the interactions between UmuD and alpha and between UmuD and SSB were investigated, the latter of which is a novel interaction. As a result, we have determined that UmuD disrupts the interaction between alpha and the beta clamp, as well as the interaction between alpha and ssDNA, suggesting a direct role for UmuD in disrupting replication. The UmuD-SSB interaction may contribute to the transition between the replication of undamaged DNA and TLS. Supported by NSF.

Matchless King Cobra
Matchless Amplifiers has created a number of great amps, including the Independence, the Clubman, the Nighthawk, and the Spitfire. The Cobra is another favorite. Building on this amp, Matchless created the King Cobra, a 30 watt single channel powerhouse with both tremolo and reverb. The Matchless King Cobra features controls for master tone, tremolo sound and depth, reverb, volume, cut, and master volume.
While it is based on the Cobra amp and includes many of the same features, the King Cobra uses two EL34 tubes instead of the four EL84 tubes the Cobra amp uses. It also features a EF86, four 12AX7s, and a 5AR4/GZ34. You'll find a speaker phase selector and a high/low power switch on the amp as well. The King Cobra delivers some great distorted tones, but it is also capable of producing amazing clean sounds as well. The tremolo and reverb are top notch, and the amp overall is very high quality, exactly what one would expect from Matchless. Of course, you will pay for quality. Even used, expect to pay as much as $3,000 for a Matchless King Cobra amp. (more...)

Love is in the air! Doo do bee do be do be doo!
Crap...is that Barry Manilow? Now that's gonna bug me...
Romance! Love! Seduction! Sex!
I'm looking for submissions along these lines.
What gets you going?
Does your Inner Goddess Soar to the stars at the thought of 50 Shades? (Don't even get me started...) Gasp! Oh my! Penis!
Do you need things spelled out for you in very specific details, ala Ann Rice's Beauty's Series. (3 million times better then 50 Shades...)
Do you prefer to have your heroine ALWAYS be involved in some sort of threesome with two BEAUTIFUL men. Both of whom are somehow not *quite* right for her until the end when one is shown to be *JUST* right and the other WAY wrong. And the sex scenes are just kinda skirted around and hinted at in very frustrating annoying ways. Because this is very realistic. You know. How adults handle things. Harlequin novels seem to think so...
Seduction is another way that I think is quickly being lost. Think Pride and Prejudice. The whole book is the seduction. The whole story is how Darcy gets Elizabeth, and how Elizabeth gets Darcy. And not once do we see the word penis!
So Send me your Romantical Submissions! We shall critique them together!
Anything is fine. We're all adults here! Though I do think that sending me a submission where you can see how many times you can use the word penis would qualify for a trip to the Red Room of Pain.
Now Cock on the other hand....that's TOTALLY different. That's rather British and therefore Classy.
Try to keep them under 500 words!
May the force of Love be with you all!
Oh! Ps....send them to: firstname.lastname@example.com

Such is the fate of the Westboro Baptist Church - the church led by the not very Revd but extremely revved Fred Phelps that engages in such entertainments as picketing the funerals of American soldiers killed in Iraq, said deaths being a sure sign of God's judgement on the US for its toleration of homosexuality.
Though that's not the only thing they picket. According to their schedule this month they intend to picket sundry churches, schools, synagogues and (yes, really) Bon Jovi. Their language is coarse, vulgar and abrasive; you get the feeling they are the kind of people who can only speak by thrusting their faces an inch away from yours and challenging you as offensively as possible on everything. There is nothing remotely Christ-like about them. See, for example, their subtly woven, intricately crafted exposition of why John 3.16 actually means that God hates (most of) the world. (Maybe they have a similar way out of Colossians 4.6: "Let your conversation be always full of grace ...")
I first heard of these individuals, I think, when they unleashed God Hates Sweden.com on the interwebs. Having a Swedish wife and a half-Swedish stepson I was curious to find out why. Apparently Swedish police had arrested pastor Ake Green who was laying down an OT-oriented view of homosexuality (and even he, I gather, has since repudiated this lot). The case was reinforced with cast-iron supporting evidence showing photos of King Carl XVI Gustaf looking "goofy" and Crown Princess Victoria in a low-cut dress. Well, that proves it.
This was followed up by God Hates Ireland.com (did I mention half-Swedish Bonusbarn is also half-Irish?). An Irish student union had invited Phelps to present his idiosyncratic viewpoint to a meeting, which he interpreted as a cunning plan to lure him out of the US so he could be arrested under Irish anti-hate laws.
After that they decided to go the whole hog with God Hates the World.com, where you can click on any country of the world (work still in progress) to find out why God hates that particular place. To save my UK readers (the majority) the trouble, he currently hates us because their church was banned from entering the country to picket "the fag propaganda play, The Laramie Project" in Basingstoke. Remember what I said about their way of speaking:
"You British Bastards will not have Jesus Christ to rule over you, and think you can issue bans and pass laws to remove God's word from the landscape. You do greatly err, not knowing the power of God; and, you do that against your own interests. It is a great kindness to have God's prophets in your land. But, you ungrateful brutes despise knowledge. It is too late for the UK. God Hates You! God's wrath and destruction is all that's left for you, thanks to Secretary Smith. Toodles!"Sighs. I'm a Brit. It's our nature to mock our enemies. It's what we do. I remember a couple of Dave Allen jokes from my childhood (I know, he wasn't a Brit but he had a good audience here) which actually served to increase my awareness of the world. In one, God asks a rather depressed Catholic outside Ian Paisley's church why he's upset.
"He won't let me in!"In another, a Dutch Reformed pastor is horrified to see an African kneeling in front of his altar.
"I know, I've been trying for years ..."
"Oi! What are you doing?"For the same reason we had Spitting Image and Dead Ringers and we could sing "Hitler has only got one ball" during WW2. But even that individual had some comedy value, if you looked deep enough. Maybe I'm just not looking deep enough here but I'm really not seeing that much.
"I'm just cleaning the floor, sir."
"Oh, that's okay, I thought you were praying ..."
William Holman Hunt's 'Light of the World' illustrates the words of Revelation 3:20: "Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." It shows a rather drippy, pre-Raphaelite Jesus knocking at a door. There is no outside latch on the door - it must be opened from inside, or not at all - and the door is half overgrown, suggesting Jesus has been knocking for a long time.
There must be a veritable forest outside Westboro Baptist Church by now, but Jesus has long arms.
Editorial note: due to the unusually large proportion of links to utterly loathsome web sites in this post, I've coded them all with tinyurl.com - just in case this blog shows up in a Google Alert somewhere for all the wrong reasons.

I am an evolutionary biologist currently doing a post doc at the Centre for Ecological and Evolutionary Synthesis (CEES) at the University of Oslo.
My main fields of scientific interest include drivers of macroevolutionary change, trait evolution on short and long timescales and the relative importance of constraints and adaptation in shaping organisms.
I am currently involved in various projects. Do not hesitate to contact me if you are curious on any of them, have questions regarding any of my papers, or interested in a collaboration.
