"Congress President Sonia Gandhi and Vice President Rahul Gandhi will visit Muzaffarnagar next week to meet the riot-hit people and assess the situation there", Congress General Secretary and in-charge of party affairs in the state, Madhusudan Mistry told reporters.
Mistry demanded strict action be taken against those who were behind the riots and said that those instigating violence will not go scott free, whether they are political party workers or public servants.
He even made a comment targeting BJP saying that workers of the political party from Gujarat were behind the riots.
Demanding setting up of relief camps for riot-hit people, he said if the state government did not know how to run them, they could be given tips on it.
Muzzafarnagar is just returning back to normalcy as the curfew was lifted in Thursday following the communal riots that shook the town.

A county overburdened with small men
It's a bit of a cliché to say that someone owes his county nothing. But one man who the saying really does apply to is Babs Keating.
For starters he was one of the finest forwards to play for Tipperary, most notably in 1971 when he more or less put the team up on his back as they won Munster and All-Ireland titles. But it's his achievements as a manager which really left the county in his debt.
It's easy to forget that when Keating took over as Tipp boss in 1987 the county was a negligible force at senior level. With no Munster title since his annus mirabilis in 1971, they had at one stage gone almost a decade without winning a single match in the provincial championship. Tipperary then were roughly where Wexford are now.
Yet by the end of his first season Tipp had won that elusive Munster title in one of the most memorable provincial deciders ever played. Richard Stakelum's famous "The famine is over" speech summed up just what it meant to the county to be back in the big time. In the next seven years Keating added two All-Irelands and four more Munster titles. It remains one of the great managerial spells in hurling, not least because he was going up against a tremendous Cork team every year in Munster.
You can sum up Babs' effect on the fortunes of Tipperary like this: In the 16 years before he took charge they won no All-Irelands, and in the 21 years since the end of that golden spell they've won just two, the same number as Babs steered them to in his first four years in the job.
So you would think they'd be pretty grateful to the man down in Tipperary. But apparently you'd be wrong. Because it was revealed last week than when Babs asked the county board for an All-Ireland ticket this year they said no as they were annoyed that he'd criticised the current team after their defeat by Galway in the All-Ireland semi-final.
You'd expect that county boards would look after players who've won All-Irelands for them first of all when it comes to tickets and then start worrying about everyone else. And to refuse a ticket to a guy whose combined record as a player and manager is unequalled in the county seems to defy logic altogether. It wasn't even a free ticket, he was going to pay for it.
It must have been quite a slap in the face for Babs but in fairness he didn't go running to the papers about it. The refusal came into the public domain because county secretary Tim Floyd saw fit to mention it at a meeting of board officials, telling his fellow apparatchiks that he was "so disgusted" by Keating's comments that he "could not bring himself to supply him with tickets." I wouldn't have been proud of it myself but there you go.
Floyd's outburst is inadvertently revealing as it seems to suggest that Tipp's officials regard the tickets as rewards to be distributed not for achievements on and off the field but for getting on with the county board. If this attitude is general it's not surprising that past players are reluctant to speak their mind on various controversies.
Personally I do think Babs sometimes overdoes the criticism of Tipperary. But he has always been a man who shoots from the lip and doesn't believe in playing it cagey. He is a big personality and this was the very thing which made him into the messiah Tipperary needed to lead them out of the desert.
If Tim Floyd can't forgive Babs a few critical comments he must be either very touchy or have a remarkably short memory.
Apparently Floyd's fellow officials were unanimous in supporting the denial of a ticket to the septuagenarian former star. I never knew there were so many small men in Tipperary.

I recently stayed here with a friend. We stayed in a room downstairs and were apprehensive about being on the bottoms floor but there was NO problems in the slightest. Trish (i think) checked us in and showed us around the beautiful house. Se showed us everything and where we could find anything in the house - so helpful. She sat us down and using a map of Key West circled great places to eat and drinks and things to do and see. Told us about Santiago's which was delicious and not easy to find unless you know about it. Free wifi was great. Breakfast was simple but enough - bagels, cake, fruit, tea & coffee. On the last day we checked out but were still able to use the bikes and the facilities in the house. Great location - walking distance to everything and bike rentals available. I can't rate this place highly enough. Beautiful house, beautiful people.

In the countryside, an hour's train ride away from the noisy central districts of Tokyo, the buildings of Takinogawa Gakuen stand in solitude, surrounded as they are by deep forest and tiny streams. As a social welfare center, Takinogawa Gakuen provides services to people with mental disabilities. The small institution has a long history. Visitors learn with a sense of surprise that this first institution of its kind, which was established in Japan more than a hundred years ago, continues its mission on the western outskirts of the metropolis.
In the past ten years, the field of disability history has been expanding hugely to include various areas of research from diverse perspectives. No historian can now ignore the critical importance of disability, which influences one's social life, at the intersection with other social attributes such as race, gender, and class. To this current state of the field, the story of Takinogawa Gakuen and its founder Ryoichi Ishii will add another new viewpoint: a transnational perspective on the history of disabilities. What it means to be disabled varies with location. But historical inquiries reveal that different institutions of disability in various localities have often developed through transnational exchange of ideas and practices beyond borders.
|Portrait of Ryoichi Ishii (Courtesy of Takinogawa Gakuen)
During his research travel, Ishii diligently absorbed Western scientific ideas on mental disability at various institutions in the United States. In Massachusetts, he learned the latest knowledge at the Boston Public Library, while auditing lectures at Harvard University. During his stay in Cambridge, Ishii also had the opportunity to meet Helen Keller. For on-site study of institutional operations, Ishii visited several prominent schools and asylums, such as the Minnesota School for the Feeble Minded in Faribault, the Massachusetts School for Idiotic Children in Waverly, and the Pennsylvania Training School for Feeble Minded Children in Elwyn. In Orange, New Jersey, Ishii visited the school founded by French educationist Edward Seguin, for whom Ishii had a high regard as "a giant in the field." In December 1896, Ishii returned to Japan. With his newly acquired knowledge, he reorganized the former girls' orphanage into Takinogawa Gakuen School for Feeble Minded Children in 1897.
At the very time when Ishii was visiting institutions in the United States, the idea of "mental retardation" was in fact undergoing a significant change within American scientific circles. Until the late nineteenth century, the understanding of intellectual disability as a defect that was partially curable through proper training of the nervous system had dominated scientific discussions under the influence of Edward Seguin's physiological theory. With the rise of the eugenics movement at the turn of the twentieth century, however, American scientists came to believe "mental retardation" to be an incurable hereditary impairment. Asylum superintendents upheld the idea of permanent segregation of the mentally disabled as a menace to society. Old physiological understandings of "idiocy" gradually gave way to a new psychological measurement of "feeble-mindedness." It was the chaotic mixture of old and new theories in this transitional period that Ishii learned in the United States and brought back to Japan.
|Takinogawa Gakuen in the Early Twentieth Century. Source: Bureau for Social Work, Present Conditions of the Child Welfare Work in Japan (Tokyo: Home Department, 1920).
Not just transplanting American ideas of mental disability into Japanese society, Ryoichi Ishii and his experiment at Takinogawa Gakuen paved a unique path for the institutional care of the mentally disabled in Japan. By the end of World War II, the Japanese government had assumed practically no legal responsibility for the care of people with mental disabilities. The care for the mentally disabled rested on desperate efforts by a handful of private institutions. In a letter to Martin W. Barr, the chief physician at the Pennsylvania Training School in the United States, Ishii wrote, "A new building is just going to be finished, and twenty more of the feeble-minded are expected next month. There are nearly two hundred applicants, but I have no room for any addition of inmates. My institution is a private one." In the absence of state custodial care as found in the United States, Takinogawa Gakuen and its follower institutions gradually enhanced their practical capacity. In the 1950s, the growth of these private institutions gave basis for the introduction of the public-private partnership system, which has characterized public assistance for people with mental disabilities in Japan up until now.

Pros & Cons: Multi-DBs for Multisite
I'm new to WordPress, and I've just successfully installed & configured Multisite, W3 Total Cache, and Domain Mapping on my Nginx VPS. I'm a member of a team of developers, and we're creating a site that will eventually generate thousands of other sites.
I've heard some arguments that say separate DBs is counter-productive for a multisite network, and others that say that separate DBs is essential.
On each side, security and performance concerns are raised, amongst others.
In a pros and cons fashion, and based on our expected volume, can someone explain the pros & cons of using multiple databases and the pros & cons of a single scaled database?
And I suppose my ultimate question is, what is the recommended method for a large multisite network?
Please reference any helpful plugins or tutorials for either method.
Thank You
- The topic 'Pros & Cons: Multi-DBs for Multisite' is closed to new replies.

Wow—you mean we have the technology for that now? Outstanding.
Now, without the sarcasm, I can't believe this qualifies for front page news on Snow Leopard. Mac OS X's error dialogs are regularly woeful, and this kind of sloppy user interface design (telling the user that something is preventing a disk from being removed, but not telling them what) should have been corrected years ago. It's neither an "enhancement", nor a "refinement", it's an "embarrassingly basic user interface deficiency that should have been fixed by now".

I still go to bed at night and hope that when I wake up in the morning I will find that all this has been a dream. And each morning when I wake up and see that it has not been a dream I feel sad all over again. I want so badly for my girls to simply reappear to me. To wake up one morning and find them in my arms and start this journey all over again how it was meant to be and not how it is. I hate how it is. And it is hard to accept that it will never be different.
The past few months have been rough. When the girls first died I had a horrible time. But after four months or so I started to feel a little better, I started to see that I was not going to be sad forever. But just when I felt the worst was over I experienced a new low. I spent the past few months in a bad place, a very bad place. I felt hopeless and empty. I felt dead inside.
Few things in life cut straight to the core. My girls' deaths wounded me so deeply that, at my lowest, I could not imagine life ever being ok again. I felt permanently altered inside. I may have looked like my old self to everyone else, but I was a different person now. I would never again be who I was. I was in no way prepared to lose my girls, to be forced against my will to let go of what I wanted to keep forever, nor to live on afterward. How is living possible after something like this? I felt overwhelmed. I had lost my way. I needed help. I needed a miracle.
So I prayed for one. "Jesus, rescue me."
It was a simple prayer but passionately sincere. I was desperate. I needed to be rescued from my grief. It wasn't enough anymore for God to walk with me through this, I needed to be carried. My pain and questions and guilt and anger had left me lifeless. I needed to be transformed. I needed to be made alive again.
I have passionately prayed many prayers in my lifetime, calling out to Jesus in my most helpless times. And I have learned that it is impossible to predict what He will do. He often answers my prayer in ways I do not expect, sometimes in ways I don't even like. That may seem harsh to say, but it is true. When my girls died after begging God to save them I was disillusioned, heartbroken, and angry. Why did God allow them to die? Why did He answer my prayer for their healing in the most painful way possible? It didn't make sense to me. How could I ever trust Him again?
Here is my answer to myself...what other choice do I have? Without Christ everything is meaningless...including my girls' lives and my pain. And I think the only thing worse than living without my girls is living without hope. Hope that God can make right all the wrongs of this life. Hope that God can heal even the most destroyed heart. Hope that God can make good come from something so bad. Hope that I will be reunited with my girls in heaven and our separation will eventually end. Hope that in the meantime God still has a future and life for me and my family. And hope is impossible without trust.
I know God will rescue me. In many ways He already has. Just having hope again has given me strength to hang on one more day. One day at a time...

Modular Transport Lines Bench
From Rolling Benches
Our transport lines are made of aluminum and hot dipped galvanized steel. All our lines are completely adjustable so they will always be level. This is important when concrete floors are not completely laser level. All nuts, washers, and bolts are stainless steel. The aluminium profiles are designed to be highly modular as we as easy to assemble, maintain as well as upgrade with various automation elements. Our black transport line wheels have a running surface of 30mm for the benches (1.2"), while most of our competitors use 25 mm. (1"). This gives you nearly a half inch extra for the benches to run on. competitor systems have less running surface and less adjustability, and benches can therefor slip between the wheels which can result in plant material falling out of the bench. Our transport line can always be configured either manual or automated.
- Twin rail for stability and load carrying capacity
- Run lengths in excess of 200m and widths up to 13m
- Utilizes heating pipes keeping costs and light loss to a minimum
- Energy efficient 240v inverter drive provides a full range of speeds
- Non slip wire drive incorporating flexibly positioned drive hub.
- Centre feed hose handling
- Low voltage signalling
- Optional 'walk through' booms to allow pathway access
- Quick and simple to install Brackets for attaching injectors
- Fully galvanized or zinc plated chassis and track components.
- Stainless steel or PVC boom components
- Can be used for misting and spraying
Nozzles and Booms
Nozzles and Booms
- Full range of interchangeable nozzle tips providing a choice of application rates and droplet sizes
- Anti-drip nozzle bodies to prevent drip damage and water waste fitted as standard
- Optional turret nozzles to provide easy selection of required nozzle tips
- Drop tubes for watering in-between plants or flooding
- Edge nozzles for watering fast drying bed edges
- High volume dribble booms also available
- Twin booms to permit simultaneous spraying and watering ( wash off )
Some of the advantages of using a Traveling Irrigator System together with Dat-A-Water are:
- Highly accurate and efficient use of water and feeds

Support » Plugins » Newsletter Plugin Suggestion
9 years, 3 months ago
Hey all – I've just returned to blogging and remembered that I used to have a newsletter (non-Wordpress) on my previous site. Luckily, I have all the e-mails saved and would love to get this back up and running. The problem is that I have a good 70,000 subscribers and cannot add them all manually. Does anyone know a program that I can easily edit to load the e-mails I have? It would be quite a shame to lose all my readers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Additionally, my new site is Indieducky (http://www.indieducky.com) and I am looking for PHP experts to work on a few ideas I have (non WordPress related) — I'm not anywhere near rich, but I have some ideas on how to compensate, so please drop me a message if you interested — those with a passion for music and discovering new music will find this quite rewarding, in my humble opinion.
Thanks all!

OA policy FAQs
Many institutions and research funders worldwide have introduced policies requiring researchers to ensure that their publications are openly accessible.
The following FAQs provide guidance on how authors can meet the OA policy requirements of their funders and institutions when publishing their research articles.
SpringerOpen journals are fully open access. For authors interested in finding out about compliance with open access policies when publishing in subscription journals, see the guidance on our sister site for open research at nature.com and Palgrave Macmillan.
- What are the main types of open access policy requirements?
- How can I find out my funder/institution's OA policy?
- How do I know if the policy applies to me and my research?
- How can I meet policy requirements for gold OA?
- How can I meet OA licence requirements?
- How can I meet green OA archiving requirements?
- When should I be thinking about OA policy requirements?
- How do I meet the requirements of multiple OA policies?
- Can I publish with SpringerOpen and meet OA requirements?
- How can I ensure that my article is eligible for the REF?
- My published article does not comply. What should I do?
- How can I comply with my funder's open data policy?
What are the main types of open access policy requirements?Back to top
Where funders or institutions have an open access policy they usually require or encourage authors to make their research publications openly accessible through one or both of the following routes:
- Immediate open access publication on the publisher's website, often referred to as the gold OA route
- Self-archiving or deposition of a version of the manuscript in an open access repository, often referred to as the green OA route
Funders and institutions may require authors to make their work for open access through a particular route (OA publication or self-archiving) or they may allow the author to choose whichever method they prefer. These two approaches are not mutually exclusive as articles published via the immediate open access route can also be made available in a repository, and in some cases OA policies may contain requirements relating to both types of open access.
Funders and institutions may also have open access policies that specify the license under which content is made available. Learn more about meeting OA license requirements.
How can I find out my funder/institution's OA policy?Back to top
Funders and institutions with open access policies will usually make these available on their website. OA policies can often be found with other information about research and publication policies, and in the case of research funders the policy requirements may also be included in the terms and conditions of research grants.
Directories of open access policies can be a useful place to start when searching for OA policies:
- SpringerOpen's page for funding for open access articles contains links to the OA policies of many research funders and institutions, as well as policy summaries for a number of major funders.
- SHERPA/JULIET contains details of the OA policies of various research funders worldwide.
- The ROARMAP directory contains information about organizations that have self-archiving (green) open access requirements.
Although these sources are a useful means of identifying policies and are regularly maintained, authors are advised to read through the full policy terms on their funder or institution's website.
Where authors are unsure if their funder or institution has an open access policy, they should contact the organization directly or get in touch with our OA funding and policy support service for assistance.
How do I know if the policy applies to me and my research?Back to top
Funders' and institutions' open access policies may apply to particular individuals, grant programmes, or publications. In particular, authors should check whether they fall within the scope of the policy in the following areas:
- Role: Authors should check whether their role within the organization affects how the policy applies to them. For example, a university's open access policy may or may not apply to publications authored by students.
- Grant programme: Funders' OA policies may apply to particular grant programmes.
- Policy implementation date: Authors' publications may fall within the scope of the policy depending on the timeframe of certain factors such as the date of grant application or award, or the date of article submission, acceptance, or publication.
- Publication type: Policies may apply only to original research published in a journal or may also have requirements for other forms of research output, including monographs, book chapters, and data.
Where a funder or institution provides funding for a publication's article processing charge (APC), additional open access requirements may apply. Authors applying for APC funding should ensure that they are able to meet these conditions as well as those within the main open access policy. For further information on OA funding and the common requirements associated with it, see our OA Funding FAQs.
How can I meet policy requirements for gold OA?Back to top
Funders and institutions may prefer or require authors to publish their research via the immediate (gold) OA route. Authors publishing with SpringerOpen are automatically able to comply with these policies as all SpringerOpen journals are fully open access, meaning that all articles are published via the immediate (gold) OA route.
Funders with requirements or preferences for immediate OA publication will usually provide funding to support authors in complying with their policy. Find out more in our OA Funding FAQs.
Where research is published via the immediate (gold) OA route, funders often require the research is published under a Creative Commons license. Learn more about meeting OA license requirements
Authors should note that some OA policies may require them to make a version of the article available in a repository even when publishing via the immediate open access route. Learn more about meeting OA deposition requirements.
How can I meet OA licence requirements?Back to top
Publishing under an open access license, such as one of the Creative Commons (CC) licenses, permits authors and readers various rights for reuse and redistribution of the article as soon as it is published. A summary of each CC license type is available on the Creative Commons website.
Several funders require authors to publish under the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license when they publish via the immediate open access route, or if the funder has paid an article processing charge (APC). A small number of funders are introducing policies requiring that publications are made available under a CC BY license in all circumstances.
All articles in SpringerOpen journals are published under a CC BY license. This allows authors to be automatically compliant with the license requirements of all current funder policies. For further information, please see here.
How can I meet green OA archiving requirements?Back to top
OA policies may encourage or require authors to deposit or 'self-archive' a version their research article within a repository, where it can be made openly accessible.
Authors should note that some funders and institutions require a version of the article to be self-archived in a specific repository even where the article has been published via immediate open access.
Common self-archiving policy requirements are explained below. Read below to find out more about policy requirements for:
- Which repository to use
- Which version of the article to deposit
- When the article must be deposited
- When it must be made openly accessible
- Whether the publisher will deposit, or whether you will need to self-archive
Institutional policies often require deposition in an institution-specific repository as managed by the library. Funders may also have a specific repository requirement or permit that the article is available in an unspecified appropriate subject or institutional repository.
Several major funders in the life sciences have agreements with PubMed Central (PMC) and require authors to make their articles available in PMC or its regional equivalents. SpringerOpen deposits the final version of all articles it publishes to PMC. Click here to learn more.
Article version
Policies may require that one or either of the following versions of the article is made available in the repository:
- Author's accepted manuscript (AAM). This is the manuscript in the form when it is accepted for publication in the journal after peer-review is complete but before it has been typeset. This is also referred to as the accepted version or the author's final version of the article. SpringerOpen authors may make the AAMs of their articles available from the point of publication. It is advised that authors save a hard copy of the AAM version of their manuscript at the point of acceptance, ready to deposit.
- Final published version of the article. This is the version of the article that appears in the journal after typesetting. This is also known the version of record (VOR) or the publisher's version of the article. Funders and institutions may require that this version is archived where it was published via immediate open access. Learn more about policies for archiving open access content published in SpringerOpen journals.
Mandates for deposition of either the accepted or published version of the manuscript require that the available article has been peer-reviewed. Therefore, making the version of the article in its pre-submission form available in a pre-print server is not sufficient to meet the policy requirements.
Deposition vs. full availability
Some funders or institutions specify when and how the article should be deposited as well as when it should be publically available. For example, UK researchers participating in the post-2014 Research Excellence Framework assessment (REF) may need to meet certain requirements on the timeframe of their article deposition. Learn more about meeting REF requirements when publishing in SpringerOpen journals.
Embargo period
Funder and institutional self-archiving policies often specify a timeframe within which articles must be made openly available, usually referred to as the maximum embargo period.
Open access policies may require that authors publishing via the immediate (gold) open access route make the deposited version of the article available to access immediately after publication.
As a fully open access publisher, all content published in SpringerOpen journals can be deposited and made available in article repositories immediately after publication.
Publisher or author archiving
In some cases, publishers may archive a version of manuscripts on behalf of authors in order to assist authors in meeting funder and institutional OA requirements.
SpingerOpen deposits the final published versions of all articles in certain repositories, including PubMed Central. Click here to learn more.
When should I be thinking about OA policy requirements?Back to top
In order to meet funder and institutional OA policy requirements, authors may have to take actions at various stages during the submission process. Some key stages include:
- While selecting a journal. Authors should compare journal OA policies and options with the requirements of their funder and institution, to ensure that they can meet all policy conditions, and also any requirements attached to their APC funding. Learn more about common OA policy requirements and common APC funding conditions.
- At the point of acceptance. Authors may also need to self-archive a copy of their manuscript if their funder or institution requires that they do so at the point of acceptance.
- After publication. Authors may need to self-archive a version of their manuscript at the point of publication.
Our open access checklist provides further guidance on key steps to take in order to help ensure compliance with OA policy requirements and to identify APC funding for OA publications.
How do I meet the requirements of multiple OA policies?Back to top
Where article co-authors are based at different institutions or the research has been funded by more than one funding body, there may be multiple open access policies that need to be met. Corresponding authors should ensure that they are aware of all applicable open access policies, and that the policies and OA options of the journal will allow compliance with these requirements.
In general, open access policies will not conflict, even if they have different requirements. For open access licenses, the option that will satisfy most conditions will usually be the least restrictive license.
Note that different funders and institutions may require deposition in different specific repositories. There are no restrictions on the number of repositories in which an article may be self-archived, so authors will be able to meet self-archiving requirements by ensuring that the article is available in all of the specified repositories within the required timeframe.
Our free OA funding and policy support service can provide advice on meeting multiple OA policies.
Can I publish with SpringerOpen and meet OA requirements?Back to top
SpringerOpen journals allow authors to comply with all open access policies worldwide.
However, our OA funding and policy support service can provide personalized advice to authors who have queries about meeting their OA policy requirements across all Springer Nature journals.
How can I ensure that my article is eligible for the REF?Back to top
To order to be considered for the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) post-2014 REF programme, UK authors of journal articles and conference proceedings with ISSNs accepted for publication after 1 April 2016 must deposit the accepted (or published, where permitted by the publisher) version of their article in an institutional or valid subject repository no later than three months after initial publication. From 1 April 2018, articles should deposited be within three months of acceptance, although journal-specific embargo periods for public availability may be observed. Authors are permitted to make a 'closed deposit' on acceptance, where a full copy of the article is placed in a repository but not immediately freely available to read. For further information, please refer to the full policy.
UK authors publishing in SpringerOpen journals are automatically compliant with HEFCE's open access policy, as articles published by the gold route are encouraged, but not required, by HEFCE to be deposited. Depositions of post-REF eligible articles to a repository may still be mandated by UK institutions, and authors should confirm the policy requirements of their institution(s) prior to article acceptance.
My published article does not comply. What should I do?Back to top
In all cases it will be possible for SpingerOpen authors to meet funder and institutional OA policy requirements after the point of publication.
Where the funder or institutional OA policy requires self-archiving or manuscript deposition, authors should deposit their manuscript in the required repository(ies) in accordance with the terms of their funder and institutional OA policy.
How can I comply with my funder's open data policy?Back to top
Research organizations have historically focused on open access to research publications, specifically in peer-reviewed journals. However, many funders and institutions are now introducing policies on the openness of research data. These typically focus on the practices of researchers for sharing and preserving research data, for example, by creating a data management plan, or making data openly available within a suitable repository. We advise that authors refer to the policies of their research funder(s) and institution to confirm which requirements may apply to their research data.
Springer Nature journals encourage data sharing where possible, and employ policies and services that allow authors to meet their open data requirements. To find out more, visit our research data policies webpage. For further advice on the journal policies as well as meeting funders' data requirements, authors can contact our research data policy support helpdesk.
For further assistance in understanding and complying with open access policies, please contact our free OA funding and policy support service.
If you are interested in publishing via the immediate OA route see our OA funding FAQs for guidance on identifying and applying for open access publication funds.
If you have any feedback on these FAQs, including suggestions for further information on OA policies you would like to see, please let us know at email@example.com.

Most Georgians would like to see more money spent to protect the environment, according to a new poll called the Peach State Poll.
And by a large margin, Georgians would also like to spend more on public education, according to the poll, conducted by the University of Georgia's Carl Vinson Institute of Government.
Sixty percent of Georgians said ''a lot'' more should be spent on public education, and another 20 percent said it should be increased ''a little.''
The new Peach State poll will be conducted quarterly, said survey director Rich Clark.
The first poll explored Georgians' attitudes on a wide range of issues, and some of the answers were surprising, he said.
One surprise was that so many Georgians are willing to spend money on the environment -- 71 percent said they would, Clark said. A national poll conducted just a few months earlier found only 48 percent willing to spend more on the environment, he said.
By contrast, just 40 percent of Georgians surveyed in the Peach State poll said they wanted to increase spending on public health, compared to 71 percent in a national survey.
Another surprise was Georgia's confidence in the economy, considering the poll's timing, he said -- between Sept. 15 and Sept. 25, just days after the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
Workers did telephone interviews with 802 randomly selected adult Georgians around the state during the period. The margin of error in the survey is plus or minus 3.5 percent at the 95 percent confidence level. That means that 95 percent of the time, the poll results are an accurate measure of the entire state's opinions, within that plus or minus range.
But despite the dire economic news that was already coming out by Sept. 15, most Georgians polled (81 percent) believed they would be better off or about the same economically in a year's time, according to the poll.
One thing that was not a surprise was the answer when pollsters asked, ''What is the most important problem facing the nation today?''
Sixty percent said terrorism. Just 8 percent said the economy, but that was enough to make the economy no. 2 on the list.
The same question has been asked in Gallup Poll surveys dating back to the 1940s, and never before has a defense-related or national security issue been cited by such a large percentage of people surveyed, Clark said.
Pollsters also asked what the biggest problem facing Georgia (as distinct from the entire nation) is. The top answers to that question were education (24 percent) and jobs, unemployment and the economy (24 percent).
The poll also found that Georgians have a lot of confidence in their police agencies -- but not much in the state's court system.
Some questions will be repeated in each poll or every other poll so that researchers can see changes in attitudes and perceptions over time, Clark said. Questions about confidence in the economy and about what the worse problems confronting us are will be repeated in each poll, for example.
But each poll will also focus on a unique issue or set of issues, he said.
September's polls asked Georgians about their attitudes on the environment and on water quality issues.
The second Peach State poll is now under way. In addition to the repeating questions, participants are being asked about tourism, travel, immigration and airline safety measures, Clark said.
Complete poll results are available at the Web site for UGA's Carl Vinson Institute of Government: www.cviog.uga.edu/organiza/peach-state-poll/
The first quarterly poll by the University of Georgia's Carl Vinson Institute of Government showed Georgians believe education and the economy are the biggest problems facing the state right now. Surveyors interviewed a random sample of 802 people between Sept. 15 and Sept. 25.
What do you consider the most important problem facing the state of Georgia today? (Percent who named the area)

Sergeant James Schaffer and Detective Jerome A. Stubig were killed near the beginning of a rampage by a berserk gunman.
Sergeant Schaffer and Detective Stubig were the first to arrive at the scene where two fellow officers had been shot. Six policemen and two civilians were also injured in the six hour gun battle between a former marine, and hundreds of heavily armed police at 9521 S. Exchange.
The explosion from a bomb thrown at the two officers by the suspect, first injured both men. As they laid injured, the suspect emptied his carbine into both men, killing them.
The incident began when two detectives knocked on the suspect's door and announced they were police officers. He answered the knock with gunfire.
The suspect surrendered to Police Superintendent James Rochford at 9:00 p.m. that evening.
Sergeant Schaffer was an Army veteran of World War II. His wife and daughter survive him.

Accommodation in Victoria Falls
Toka Leya Camp
Toka Leya Camp is located on the banks of the Zambezi River, upstream from the Victoria Falls. The Twelve classic tented safari camps bring you close to nature while providing for modern amenities. The camp features a pool and romantic safari dining and lounge areas.
Spread out along the banks of the Zambezi River, the tents are set up on stilts, surrounded by a wooden deck that you can sit on and watch the world and the Zambezi River go by. The 12 well-appointed en-suite safari-style tents (three of which are family units that can sleep four) are remarkably spacious and join up to the main dining, bar, and pool area via a raised gangway, keeping you out of the way of visiting hippos and elephants.
Toka Leya is in the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, where a handful of Zambia's remaining white rhino live. A game drive through the national park is a must.
There's great fishing on the river and you can arrange for a guide to take you out on a fully-equipped boat so you can try your luck at landing a tiger fish.
Priding itself on its greenness, the camp has gained a reputation for having incorporated several eco-systems, including the replanting of indigenous trees, a grey-water set-up, and a thriving worm farm for composting.
Victoria Falls
At twice the height of Niagara, the falls are an awe-inspiring sight, plummeting 100m down into the Batoka Gorge. The falls are on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe, and are surrounded by lush rainforest. People also come here to take part in any number of adventure activities.

Unanswered: authentication for opening linked tables in access from sql server 2000
Hi, My database uses access as a frontend and sql server as a backend. As i log into the access database (.mdb) i prompt the user for a username and password which inturn will be used to login to sql server odbc connection. The problem is, although I already entered a user name and password for the server and odbc connection for the linked tables, when i try to open one of the linked tables I get the following error: Connection Failed: SQLState: '28000' SQL Server Error: '18452', then when i click 'OK' it prompts for authentication once again....but after I enter the username and password once again, the odbc connection is used and authentication is no longer needed until access is completely closed and then restarted. What can I do that I will only need to use the user's id and password from the login screen and will no longer need for the user to go through a sql login dialog again

I am having a similar problem on Access 2002/Win2000SP4. Is there any way to persist the login information after the database is closed?
For reference, the ODBC is verified to not use trusted connections, and the table is originally linked with SQL Authentication.
