WSU board OKs 8-year pact before right-to-work lawBy Associated Press
Related links
Wayne State University's governors have ratified an eight-year faculty contract, one week ahead of the effective date of Michigan's new right-to-work law. The law bans mandatory payments from employees to the unions that represent them under collective bargaining agreements. The American Association of University Professors-American Federation of Teachers Local 6075 ratified the agreement earlier this month, and the Wayne State board of governors followed suit Wednesday. The vote was along party lines on the Democratic-controlled board. The Republican-led state Legislature has threatened retaliation against schools that adopt long-term contracts not covered by the right-to-work law. Republican Gov. Rick Snyder said Wednesday he doesn't have a problem with longer contracts as long as they're "fairly bargained" in an "arms-length basis." Topics in this article: Wayne State University

Illinois Lawmakers Restart Gambling Expansion TalksSPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) - Illinois lawmakers have re-opened talks on a bill to expand gambling, but many of the concerns that doomed earlier proposals remain. The House Executive Committee held a hearing Wednesday on a measure to add five casinos and allow slot machines at Chicago's major airports. The bill passed the Senate in the spring but didn't get a House vote. Bill sponsor Rep. Robert Rita is a Blue Island Democrat. He says he'll work to address concerns. They include whether there's sufficient oversight of a Chicago casino and how new revenue would be shared. Both the House and Senate have adjourned for the week. Lawmakers are scheduled to return to Springfield for the second week of the fall session in early November. (Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

More from the showRick Samuelson, a health-care administrator, and his wife Darla, a graduate student and part-time charity worker, have loved raising their four children in the Portland, Ore., suburb of Tigard. But as the kids have gotten older, the house seems to have gotten smaller. They have decided to move to a more family-friendly place and would like something with a large backyard and open rooms for family gatherings. Though they want to stay in Tigard, they would love to find a place that's not in a "cookie cutter" neighborhood. Real estate expert Tony Kelly thinks he can help them find the perfect place.

my guitar tracks went from stereo to mono, and i no longer have sound!
As the title says, I tracked a song, 2 guitars, both hard left and right, mixed it, tweaked it, and now for some reason, I open the song, and my guitars are all wonky. The song plays fine for the first quarter, then the right guitar drops out. I looked at the waveform, and they both start stereo, then they appear to go mono, L and R... Is there a way to set the signal to either left or right without having to retrack?
I have tried setting the input/output on the back of the combi racks to L and R no luck, just no sound. I dont understand what is going on, as I said, it was fine even a few minutes ago, everything was stereo. I have tried shifting the individual guitar tracks l and r no luck either. The left guitar still plays, even when the signal changes to mono on the left. I wonder if I inadvertently did something, and if so, wtf did i do to mess it up like this? Someone help! Lol, working on a production with a tight deadline, I dont need this, not now... lol. Any help would be greatly appreciated! In the 4 years I have used Propellerheads software, I have never had a problem like this, and I also have an AE degree, needless to say, I am embarrassed! I have attached a screen shot. Thanks! |

I agree that it does look nice, but the materials only cost about $10:
Paraffin oil
A wick
Two burned out light bulbs
A piece of wood
Black gloss paint
Twelve neodymium magnets
(8 small cylindrical magnets, two large cylindrical magnets, two spherical magnets)
My version of this lamp is slightly cheaper than the original though, the differences are listed on the pictures.
Step 1: Hollowing The Bulbs
First remove the small piece of metal on the glass part of the base, it will help to desolder it from the wire inside.
(the small piece of metal is one of the electrical contacts, the other is the part that's threaded like a screw)
With an X-Acto knife or box cutter carefully pry the base away from the glass, it is attached by some sort of adhesive, but nothing else. Some are attached better than others, and are more difficult to separate.
Next, using a screwdriver carefully break the glass holding the filament.
Clean up the sharp edges as best you can.
Step 2: Wicks
You may discover that the hole in the base is not large enough for the correct diameter wick, if so you will need to file the hole to make it larger.
(Attempting to drill it would most likely end with a broken base)
Made a diferent version of it since i don't really like the idea of having a thin lighbulb full of alcohol supported only by magnets.
I used the wick support and cap of an actual lab oil lamp, which for my surprise fit very snugly :)
Good job on a nice functionable I'ble :)
I feel that Silva's lamp has sort of a "$650 artpiece" look to it, kind of like it would only match the decor of some penthouse in new york, and I feel that mine has more of a recycled homemade sort of look. (if that makes any sense)
and then there are also the physical differences listed in the first two pictures.
Usually to separate the glass from the metal I would heat the metal part up with a blow torch, than just twist it with pliers and it comes off. Hope this info helps.

Killing the merchant
You can kill the merchant at any time in the game. Under the normal difficulty setting, he just dies then comes back at the next place, or when you leave the room and come back in. However, under the professional difficulty setting, once he dies, he remains dead. When you see the merchant and his eyes are glowing red, you can take the mine thrower and shoot a couple of darts. Most of the time he will turn into a blood stain on the floor.

I have a superb Fett helmet!!!!!!!!
Many thanks Lee!!!!!
It looks like a realistic piece of battleworn Mandalorian armor. Nuff Said. No higher compliment can I give it.
Discussion on regarding Rogue Studios Incredible Painting Skills within the Boba Fett Helmet forum, part of the Star Wars Original Trilogy Bounty Hunters category; WOOOOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I have a superb Fett helmet!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooo-Hoooooooooo!!!! Many thanks
I have a superb Fett helmet!!!!!!!!
Many thanks Lee!!!!!
It looks like a realistic piece of battleworn Mandalorian armor. Nuff Said. No higher compliment can I give it.
Pics, Rex. Where are the pics?
Cool!!! Got any pics of that masterpiece?? Would love to see how it turned out.
I second the call for pix! Don't tease us like this Rex, you lucky, lucky boy!
WOW! Rex thanks so much. I don't think I'm some awesome painter there are many people on this board who I feel smoke me I just try to capture the look of it being a film used prop and not a working helmet if that makes sense. I hope everyone remembers I did 8 of these at once which lengthend the receipt time back to you. I have much higher build prices but for the money I think it's a great value.
Glad to see you are happy Rex. I boxed up more last night and I am able to ship in the U.S from work. I have one international customer who has been patiently waiting for me to get to the Post office but it's going as soon as I can bribe my co-workers to cover for me while I drive across town on my lunch hour to ship it.
It is my hope that everyone likes their helmet as much as it sounds like you do. It has been a long wait for you folks.
Best Regards
You frekin tease. This should be our RS helmet shoff thread.
Heck YEAH I'm happy with it Lee!!!
Can't say anything more that conveys my feelings!
And yes, my bad on the No Pix! I was feeling rather jubilant, and rushed to express myself...before pics!
I will do my utmost to get a pic of it. You saw the lineup of helmets Lee did (still don't know how Lee did 8 at once!!) and to actually hold it, stare at it, is really a darn nice feeling. I don't know how the flash, etc will turn out for the colors, but the battlewear is truly what makes this a tremendous helmet.
It's been a rough year for me, and this is definently a high point. My ESB Fett is getting closer! This Halloween marks a two year anniversary in my personal Quest for Fett! It's been a long road, but it's been a fun one too. I have nearly everything I need to complete Fett, just need to snag one more item. (well, gotta get a scope too, but...okay, one scope and one set of shin tools that I've had my eye on for what, 3 months?!?) Hopefully, I'll be able to order them soon.
Man, this is fun. And don't ask me what my next Star Wars costume will be!! I swore I wouldn't start another SW costume until Fett is finished!! Then, who knows? Will it finally be a Stormtrooper? A Sandtrooper? Those Snowtroopers look awfully cool too. (no pun intended...) and then there's Clonetroopers. Do you do the all-white version? The yellow Commander? Red? The Blue and Green which are barely glimpsed in the movie, but figure prominently in Battlefront? Or, the ArcTrooper???
Nope!! It's Fett, then who knows??
take care all,
stop teaseing again, show us some darn pictures LOL
Turo, I lost yours I think it blew away in a hurricane yeah that's it LOL .
Man I'm afraid to see any pics myself it's kind of like hearing or seeing yourself on video you never look or sound like you think you do. I feel the same way about these helmets I don't like looking at my own work. Eye's closed.
Man - you dont know how much I'm looking forward to this helmet. This will be my dream quest. Since 1980.

Thanks man.
You cant post a thread like this without pictures
I was really lucky to have Lee paint my MSH & its without a doubt the BEST paintjob around.
The amount of time & effort he puts into these helmets is unreal.
"Fellas..Fellas, I put my pants on just like you..one leg at a time. Except when my pants are on... I paint green helmets!"
LOL. Gotta love that cowbell skit.
Take it from the top, DON'T FEAR THE FETT!!!
I was able to watch Lee work on these helmets.
Trust me...whatever he is charging is not enough. There is so much work in this you would not believe it. Especially with 8 at once!
Good job, Lee
No pictures yet... ?
Also I LONG wait for these PICS. COME ON post them already!!

It is my hope that everyone likes their helmet as much as it sounds like you do. It has been a long wait for you folks.
What did you do Rex eat the darn thing?
Jeez dude, just send it to me already and I'll snap a few pics. Then maybe I'll consider sending it back.
Prabably - cuz it was that GOOD!

Alrighty...I've got a pic, I'll post it right soon!!
...I promise!!!
take care,
sure........ by that time ep3 will be out
...............................(JEOPARDY music in the backround)........Pics, Pics, Pics..
Well I got my helmet from Lee and it is awesome. My only complaint is it should have had a warning label on box that prepared me to fall on the floor when I opened it. I'm very happy with mine and looking at it leaves me speechless so I'll let the pics do the talking.
Now I just have to finish this baby up.
Man it's weird how flash can washout detail..that is why I kept plugging away on those. I'm glad you are happy and if you guys need anything please contact me.
Does the happy dance! Muhhahaha! I get to touch it!! Nanny nanny boo boo! Right before Holloween too!!!
That is so freakin amazing. Awesome work Lee.
Man, those helmets are...I mean...wow. Words fail me. Washed out or not, that helmet looks **** incredible. I'm absolutely Panzer Olive Green with envy.
Now come on Rex. When do we get to see yours buddy?
you know with so many helmets going out the door a few things get missed by accident. I looked in the photos and noticed I missed the mild red wash on the mands and the keyslots I have contacted Zam I Ain't to appologize to assist in getting that corrected and it's like a 30 second thing but major to the desired effect.
From what I can tell the reason this color is so hard to match is it's actually 2 different colors sprayed on top of each other and it alters the final look(like he sprayed on the color and was not satisfied so it was redone with masking) You can actually see brighter red splotches on the mands in areas. I achieve this with one of the colors and then doping the look with the red wash. So technically there may be no one color for the red that is why it's so hard to match but I'm waiting for the answer on this but this person is not that easy to get in touch with and when you do Fett helmets are not the subject of choice for them.
Any pics with the Visor installed??
And any pics of the inside??
Is that a MSH2 helmet?
Mine should be here soon... can't wait!
Kurtyboy, yes it will.
That is a killer looking helemt. Everytime I see one painted by Lee it just makes me want one more and more.
I don't have a visor yet. I'm getting one on the 7th and hopefully installed soon after.
The inside is just painted black. Not much to see right now.

Our take: The all-new KING ARMS fully licensed THOMPSON Chicago Typewriter 'Tommy Gun' AEG is the most powerful Thompson on the market, and is one of the newest King Arms AEGs available. Even more exciting, perhaps, is the fact that this is hands down the best bang-for-your-buck value you're EVER going to see on a King Arms manufactured metal gearbox AEG.The next least expensive King Arms AEG will run close to $350, and that's the LOWEST pricing on the market. But because we purchased in extremely high volumes, we are proud to say that we can present this all-new King Arms Thompson to our customers for an unheard of price, BELOW $200 with FREE SHIPPING.We're not surprised to see that the King Arms Thompson Chicago Typewriter AEG easily dominates the original Tokyo Marui Thompson, a performance and quality benchmark for the Thompson model. We expected nothing less, either, from such a high-performance, high quality brand like King Arms. In true typewriter fashion, a high capacity drum magazine is included in the package.The rifle features FULLY LICENSED printed trademarks and, as advertised on the box, shoots with phenomenal power and accuracy. After a ton of shooting around, followed by some performance testing, we are thoroughly impressed with this rifle, and we're sure you will be too. And for the price, it's an absolute no-brainer!Features:- Full metal gearbox with high performance components- King Arms M.I.M. branded high speed steel gears- Printed THOMPSON trademarks; fully licensed for maximum authenticity- This AEG is 100% compatible with Tokyo Marui parts- Premium "simulated wood grain finish" grip and stock- Adjustable hop-up (TM-compatible hop-up unit) and selectable fully automatic/semiautomatic firing modes, along with a functional safety mode- Revolutionary patented BAXS shooting system integrated into design for extremely high performance shooting with enhanced accuracy- 516 FPS using 0.12g BBs (do NOT use 0.12g BBs in this rifle); 410-430 FPS using 0.20g BBs. This firing power ensures that you will DOMINATE any airsoft game. Accuracy and power dramatically better than that of TM Thompson during comparison testing- Premium battery and wall charger included- 2-way adjustable rear sightBOTTOM LINE: A high performance King Arms AEG, COMPLETE with battery and charger for less money than a stock Tokyo Marui Thompson without battery or charger. This gun package is loaded with performance and value!Specifications:Operation: Electric AutomaticBuild: Metal gearbox, barrel / Polymer stock, gripFiring Modes: Semi-automatic and Full-automaticMuzzle Velocity: 400-430 FPS with 0.20g BBsMagazine: 450rd hi-cap drum magazineGearbox: Full Metal Version 6Battery Type: 8.4V LargeInner Barrel Length: 300 mmHop-up: AdjustableWeight: 8 poundsAmmo type: Seamless 0.20g or heavier (0.23g, 0.25g, 0.26g, 0.28g, etc) BBs. For maximum performance and accuracy, Airsoft Megastore recommends GoldenBall ProSlick BBs which carry perfect spherical consistency and density, available at Airsoft Megastore for the lowest price on the market, guaranteed.Package includes: Rifle, rechargeable battery, wall charger, instruction manual, 450rd drum magazineBattery Charger Recommendation: Although this fully automatic airsoft rifle comes with a standard wall charger to charge the battery, Airsoft Megastore recommends the use of a smart charger to avoid overcharging the battery(overcharged batteries may cause decreased airsoft gun performance and may shorten battery life significantly). Smart chargers not only shorten charge time significantly (up to 800% faster charging), but more importantly,also automatically shut off once the battery is fully charged to avoid overcharged batteries.
"This gun is amazing. It is pretty heavy about 8 pounds but you will get use to it. I chronoed it in at about 400 fps with .2 grams. The wood looks amazing and the gun is extremely accurate an shoots fast. Ripped right thru a beer can. Real durable its full metal and really sturdy no lose parts at all. I recomend it for intermediate to advanced players. Its not so good for running around tho and its not for the weak either lol. but it has some great range. "
"Purchased one of these about 2 weeks ago. Can't say enough about it. Great detail, power, heft, price. Outside of the cocking handle being on the side instead of the top, not a bad rendering of the real thing. The ABS stocks look fine although King arms makes one with all metal, wood stocks, and engraved logo's for around $350. But I am very happy with the Ultra Grade. It functions like a real "Chopper". My hat is off to Airsoft Megastore and King Arms."
"I just received this today, and it is a fantastic weapon!! I recommend this for all users!!!1"
"the best gun me or any of my friends have owned. u absolutely dominate everyone with gun. get it. now."
"This is a GREAT gun. It has a really nice weight and feel to it. It's very accurate and reliable. After about two days of shooting it a lot the grip came loose. There is a little screw in the hole of the grip that you just have to tighten. It is very hard hitting too. I bought a stick mag with it and it looks great."
"Alright so this is one of the best AEGs for under 200 dollars. The battery it comes with is very good for out of the box and shoots around 10-11 BBs a second 400-410 fps. I forgot it's a large connecter type so my 9.6 volt won't work until I get an adaptor. But like I said the 8.4 is fine. Can't wait to use a 9.6 volt to see the rate if fire. Only cons of this gun are it's heavy but I don't mind and the grip around the trigger is a little loose so the motor has room. The rest of the gun is solid. No wiggle on the front grip or stock. And the 1000 round plastic drum mag that comes with the plastic thompsons feeds great with this."
"This is a great gun, accurate reliable and durable. It's got some great range to it and the metal is very sturdy. The only problems is the gun is very heavy and uncomfortable. My solution was to get a stick mag. Ever since I switched, the gun has been a pound or 2 lighter because the drum magazine is pretty heavy itself and bb's in it just add on. This is definitely a great gun overall. If I were you, I would get .25 king arms bb's. THE BEST PERFORMANCE WHEN USING KING ARMS BB'S!!!"
"I just bought this gun a few days ago first thing is this gun does not come charged. i know most of the guns i have gotten have and got worried when it didnt shoot i charged it for 5 hours like it says on the battery and then i was blown away by the rate of fire and the power of this thing i play with my friends and i know i will have the best gun out there by far and the box dosn't lie it shoots hard.the only down fall is the sight which is not to accurate i might put a mounting rail on this and buy a red dot scope too."
"i am going to be ordering the gun soon and by the looks of the other reviews it seems like its an amazing ill rate a review once i get it"
"This has to be one of the best aeg's out there. It is definitely superior to any other m1928. This gun is dead on accurate when even using .2 gram bbs. It is well rounded-400 fps (with .2 gram bbs), accurate, a high rof, and is mostly metal. I have had this for two months and i could not find 1 flaw with this gun. I would recommend it to any one."
"This gun is top of the line and ready to go out of the box.This gun is super high quality.You need to buy this gun so worth the money "
"the only bad thing about it is if you hit or drop the barrel on a hard surface its guranteed that it is going to break off of the gun otherwise its pretty good"
"Just got it today, and it's a beauty. Sturdy, well made and almost as heavy as the real thing. It is NOT, however, an M1928 Thompson. The 1921 and 1928 models had the cocking lever on the top of the receiver, this one has it on the side. It's obvious they simply used the M1/M1A1 receiver instead of making the correct part. It's the only fault I can find, and it's pretty much cosmetic. Mine came with a "High End A.E.G Battery 2000 8.5v 2000 mah battery"."
"this is the most accurate aeg your going to find in a while.it averages about 450 fps with .20 and 400 to 430 with.25. i have yet to try .28 or .30 but you don't need to its so accurte i can make a bb go in a inch crack on my shed doors from about 75 to 100 ft away .can go about 220ft accurately about 250ft overall.and the rate of fire is 15-17 without upgraded charger . and i charged my gun and used off and on it it will stay charged for about10 hours if you don't use it much. great buy!!! get it JOHNNY"
"This is a good gun, really accurate, Awesome fire rate, but this gun is not good if your a rushing CQC type. Its a lil heavy and the stock keeps you from really being able to rush and aim. Its cool if your into the whole 20's Gangster thing, but your spending your money more on a replica than a Professional grade Air soft weapon. I would rather of traded this gun in for another."
"This gun was pretty nice at first, but when i first tried to have my first war with this it broke right away. i would not reccomond this gun for people who are hardcore airsoft people who have many wars. WOULDNT RECCMOND VERY SAD;("

This puzzle uses eight M3-0.50 screws however it will actually hold itself together without them. The screws I've used are 18mm long but anything 10mm to 18mm long should work just fine. You may purchase stickers for this puzzle here.

I heard on radio this morning that you can make brooms stand and balance by themselves. I heard them say this only happens twice in a year because of the sun being on the equater. This messes with the magnets or something like that. Didnt hear all of that part. Got home from work and I decided to try it out. It amazed my whole family including myself.

LOL my dad called me one of the nights you could do this and told me about it. I had never heard of it before, but it works and you can feel the magnetism when standing the broom up, so weird!

This has NOTHING to do with planetary gravity, the earth's orbit around the sun, or magnetism. That is just a bad hoax. you can balance a broom (or an egg, for that matter) any day of the year. WPSD, check your facts!

Is there any reason to prefer a T3i if a T4i has the same price?
I've found an offer for T4i or T3i at the same price. Is there any strong reason I should stick with T3i and not upgrade to T4i? I'm asking this because of the obvious success of T3i, which is sort-of ...

New Book Surveys Oaxaca Uprising to Teach Rebellion
Teaching Rebellion does just that: it teaches us why the 2006 rebellion in
The introduction, by Diana Denham, Patrick Lincoln, and Chris Thomas, provides an overview of the rebellion to contextualize the participants' accounts. The story of the 2006 rebellion begins with a teachers' strike and sit-in that occupied over fifty blocks in the center of
On June 14, the police used teargas, firearms, and helicopters to brutally attack both the teachers' sit-in at the city's center and the union's radio station—destroying their equipment and brutalizing the radio operators. This violent attack, meant to stifle the people's resistance, backfired when the city rose in defense of the teachers. Transmission was taken up by Radio Universidad (at Universidad Autónoma Benito Juárez de Oaxaca) and thousands of supporters helped the union retake the city center that day. Two days later, 500,000 people marched through the city demanding that the federal government remove Governor Ruiz from office.
The next day, the Popular Assembly of the Peoples of Oaxaca (APPO) was formed, eventually comprising over 300 unions, social organizations, indigenous communities, collectives, neighborhoods and student groups. The APPO's autonomous, non-hierarchical approach in
With the June 14 police attack, the 2006
The book's introduction elaborates that after the June uprising, "no uniformed police were seen for months in the city of
On November 2, the police attacked the university campus, home to Radio Universidad, but "in what turned into a seven-hour battle, neighbors, parents, students, and other civilians took to the streets to defend the campus with stones and firecrackers, eventually managing to surround the police and force their retreat." In another major conflict that month, on November 25, "thousands of protesters marched into the city center and formed a ring around the occupying federal police forces. After a well-planned police attack, several hours of chaos and violence ensued, leaving nearly forty buildings ablaze. Hundreds were beaten, tortured, and arrested that day, and many movement activists and sympathizers not arrested were forced underground."
This final repression essentially ended the community's occupation and control of
The First-Hand Accounts
The many featured interviews illustrate the spirits of spontaneity, anti-authoritarianism, and self-defense that were fundamental to the uprising. There is Jenny's account of accompanying the family of slain
Tonia, recalls the women's "Pots and Pans March" of August 1, 2006, which sparked the spontaneous takeover of the Channel 9 television and radio station by thousands of women. "When we got to the Channel 9 offices, the security guard didn't want to let us in…The women in the front were asking permission for an hour or two to broadcast, but the employees of Channel 9 said it was impossible. Maybe if they would have given us that one hour and cooperated, then it wouldn't have gone any further. But with them seeing the number of women present, and still saying no, we decided, 'Okay then, we'll take over the whole station…' Everyone was taken by the spontaneity of it all. Since no one had foreseen what would happen and no one was trained in advance, everything was born in the spur of the moment…One thing I liked is that there were no individual leaders. For each task, there was a group of several women in charge."
In the middle of the night, August 21, 2006, paramilitary forces destroyed the antennas at the occupied Channel 9. The social movement took immediate action in support of the women, fighting off the police and paramilitary attackers at the antennas, and spontaneously deciding to occupy all eleven of the city's commercial radio stations. Francisco, an engineering student and radio technician who first got involved with the movement when Radio Universidad was vandalized by apparent police infiltrators, describes these actions from the frontlines. He was working the night of August 21 at Radio Universidad when word went out that occupied Channel 9's Radio Cacerola was down, and people were being attacked at the antennas at Fortín Hill. Francisco recounts, "we got up from our seats and left immediately…We grabbed whatever was available: Molotov cocktails, sticks, machetes, fireworks, stones, and other improvised weapons. But what could we do with our 'arms' against Ulises Ruiz's thugs, who carried AK-47s, high caliber pistols, and so much hatred? Still, we had a lot of courage, the group of us, and in that moment the only important thing was getting to the place where our compañeros were under attack…We made it thanks to our skilled but funny-looking driver, Red Beard, who wore round-framed carpenter goggles covering half of his face, a yellow fireman's helmet, and red beard. In truth, we all looked pretty funny in our protective gear: leather gloves and layered t-shirts. But wasn't funny at all was the sound of bullets and screams that we heard on the other side of the hill as we continued onward."
The busload from Radio Universidad arrived on the tail end of the government attack, and when they met up with their compañeros, they were told that police had shot and injured several people and destroyed the antennas. They searched for any injured compañeros who remained, then left to go help elsewhere. After visiting Radio La Ley, which had just been occupied, they were inspired to take over another station themselves and went to Radio ORO: "When we got there, we knocked on the door of the station and announced with a megaphone: 'This is a peaceful takeover. Open Up. We are occupying this radio because they've taken away our last remaining means of free expression. This is a peaceful takeover. Open Up!' The security guard opened the door and we entered, without anyone being hit, without insults—we just walked in." Francisco concludes, "after the takeover, I read an article that said that intellectual and material authors of the takeovers of the radios weren't Oaxacan, that they came from somewhere else, and that they received very specialized support. The article claimed that it would have been impossible for anyone without previous training to operate the radios in such a short amount of time because the equipment is too sophisticated for just anyone to use. They were wrong."
Another account comes from former political prisoner David Venegas Reyes, who co-found VOCAL (Oaxacan Voices Constructing Autonomy and
David recounts that "We originally formed the barricade to protect the antennas of Radio Oro, but the barricade took on a life of its own. You could describe it like a party, a celebration of self-governance where we were starting to make emancipation through self-determination a reality. The barricades were about struggle, confrontation, and organization. We eventually started discussing agreements and decisions made by the APPO Council and the teachers' union. There were a number of occasions where the barricade chose actions that went against those agreements, which in my view, only strengthened our capacity for organized resistance."
David says VOCAL "stemmed from an APPO Statewide Assembly when it became evident that there were divergent perspectives with regard to the upcoming elections." One side felt that the APPO movement "in all its plurality and diversity," had purposefully excluded "political parties and any corrupt institution," so getting involved with elections would "attack the unity constructed from diversity of thought and visions that exist within the movement." The other side wanted to "act pragmatically and participate in the elections with our own candidates." Those not wanting to participate in elections "that serve to legitimate repressive governments," and who were distrustful of organizations that did, formed VOCAL. Consequently, VOCAL "turned into a diverse organization where a lot of anti-authoritarian visions and ways of thinking coexist—some rooted in indigenous tradition, like magonísmo, and some more connected to European ideologies. A lot of compañeros who have no particular ideological doctrine are also active in the organization…What we all have in common is our idea of autonomy as a founding principle. We defend the diverse ways of organizing of pueblos and the rights of people to self-govern in all realms of life…Unlike other hegemonic ideologies, we don't believe that to promote our own line of thought it's necessary to exclude anyone else's."
In April 2007, David was arrested, "with no arrest warrant or explanation. They drove me to an unknown place, where they planted drugs on me, then tried to force me to hold the drugs so that they could take photos. When I refused, they beat me…Finally they presented me with the arrest warrant that accused me of being involved in the social movement and the acts of November 25th. The warrant accused me of sedition, organized crime, and arson. Even as the government fabricated the idea of accusing me of drug possession in an attempt to criminalize and discredit me, they already intended to present the arrest warrant of a political nature once I was in jail."
On March 5, 2008, after nearly a year in prison, David was released, after he was judged not-guilty by the court on all political charges. However, the CASA Collective's website reports that since drug charges were still pending, "he was released on bail and forced to report to the court every week for over a year, severely limiting his ability to travel." On April 21, 2009, Oaxacan judge Amado Chiñas Fuentes found him not guilty on "charges of possession with intent to distribute cocaine and heroin." Following this verdict, David said, "This innocent verdict, far from demonstrating the health or rectitude of the Mexican legal system, was pulled off thanks to the strength of the popular movement and with the solidarity of compañeros and compañeras from

On June 8, 2009 The Committee in Defense of the Rights of the People (CODEP-APPO) reported the assassination of Sergio Martínez Vásquez, member of the State Council of CODEP, arguing that the "way in which it was done and due to some information gathered, everything points to the fact that the material actors of this assassination were paramilitary groups that Ulises Ruiz has operating in the region."

Northern New York State includes the 6 million-acre Adirondack Park, surrounding countryside and the entire western shore of Lake Champlain. The region is best known for its mountains (including the highest peaks in New York) and lakes (more shoreline than Vermont and New Hampshire combined). But villages, farms, museums, restaurants, artisan shops and a wide variety of accommodations also create ideal Adirondack Vacations.
The Adirondack Park was created in 1882 by the New York State Legislature, which enacted measures that guarantee public lands will remain forever wild. The Park itself is the size of the state of Vermont, with a structure unlike any other state or national park in the nation: it is a patchwork of public and private lands. There are expansive blocks of backcountry interspersed with private homes, villages and tracts of corporate forest lands under active management. In the Adirondacks, it is possible to hike to an isolated waterfall in the afternoon, then spend the evening strolling Main Street.
Within the "Blue Line," as the park boundary is called, more than 40 state-operated campgrounds, 2,000 miles of hiking trails, hundreds of miles of canoe routes and 42 peaks over 4,000 feet in height entice travelers from all over the world. During the winter, visitors enjoy Alpine and Nordic skiing, snowmobiling, skating, dog sledding and relaxing in front of gigantic stone fireplaces.
Interstate Rt. 87 passes through the Adirondack Park along its eastern side, originating in the Albany area and continuing north to the Canadian border, but there are over 40 other roads entering the park as well. As a result, there is no "entrance gate," and no admission fee. (Fees apply at state campgrounds, but hiking, canoe and boat access on state lands are free.)
Hike. Canoe. Boat. Fish. Swim. Ride mountain or road bikes. Ride horses. Camp. Ski. Snowmobile. Hunt. Tour Olympic sites. Visit museums chronicling the hard-knock history of farmers, loggers and health care pioneers. Shop artisan outlets. Take architectural tours. Enjoy theater and art exhibitions. Sit on the veranda sipping drinks and watching the sun slip behind the mountains. Or do it all.
The Adirondacks are home to black bears, white tailed deer, common loons, mergansers, bald eagles, beavers, coyotes, fishers, bobcats, brook and lake trout, land-locked salmon and more.
Its forests are comprised of hardwoods and softwoods, including maple, black cherry, beech, balsam fir, hemlock, Scotch and red pine and spruces of several varieties. Woodland wildflowers such as showy ladyslippers bloom in the spring, while many waterways are graced with white and yellow water lilies throughout the summer. There are several Alpine summits in the Adirondacks where rare plants thrive under adverse conditions. Hikers are cautioned to stay on paths or bare rocks when visiting these summits.
The Adirondacks are part of the Canadian Shield. Contrary to popular belief, these mountains are not old, "worn down" peaks, but relatively young mountains born as a result of orogeny, or uplift, followed by etching and carving by mile-high glaciers. It is theorized that there is a geologic "hotspot" beneath the Adirondacks that is causing continuing uplift. The mountains continue to grow at the rate of 1.5 millimeters annually. While the mountains themselves are young, the rock of which most are formed, anorthosite, is among the oldest of the various types found on earth.

BEIRUT: Sana Fakih ran her fingers over the top of a tea box decorated in brightly colored mosaic tiles, on sale Tuesday at a Ramadan bazaar in Verdun, one of the first of the season. If someone asked her to design something like this, she couldn't, Fakih said while admiring the box.
"I can!" shouted Fady Osseiran, who decorated a number of the boxes on display.
Osseiran has autism. He along with dozens of other physically and mentally disabled men and women were the artisans behind the expert-quality crafts on sale at the Holiday Inn in Verdun this Tuesday and Wednesday.
The bazaar features everything from hand-painted glasses to handwoven fruit-and-nut baskets.
The two-day bazaar will raise money for the Friends of the Disabled Association and its educational Idad Center, which help children and adults integrate into society through vocational training, event organizers said. The bazaar is open from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m.
The detailed painting and finely decorated silverware show no sign the craftsmen are limited by a physical or mental handicap. Rows of freshly made sweet breads and traditional holiday cookies, delicate gold jewelry with Arabesque detail, and contemporary furniture designs with mosaic embellishments cover more than two dozen display tables.
Prices range from a few dollars for a loaf of sweet bread to $150 for a hefty woven gift basket. The real payoff is not the money raised, but allowing the artisans to see their work admired and bought by members of the community, said Fakih, assistant director at the Idad Center.
"They love to see their product on display. Look, he's showing his parents what he made," she said, pointing to Hadi Abu Diab, one of the students at Idad Center. Abu Diab specializes in mosaics and pottery.
Many of the adult students were able describe their work in fluent English and Arabic.
Idad Center begins working with children at age 2 or 3 with early intervention classes, Fakih said. By age 12, the children begin pre-vocational training to learn about the different crafts.
When they are ready, the students begin working in their chosen vocation: jewelry making, basket weaving, baking, mosaics and painting, among other trades. In addition to vocational training, Idad Center also offers special education classes, different kinds of therapeutic services, assessment and diagnoses, summer camps and independent living facilitation.
This is the association's 23rd annual Ramadan bazaar, which is just one of the many annual holiday sales, which include Christmas and Easter events. The students work year-round, and all items are on sale directly from Idad Center throughout the year, Fakih said.
Idad employs a team of professional artists in addition to those like Fakih, who specialize in disability services. Fakih spends lots of time researching new projects and crafts Idad can introduce into its vocational training. The artists figure out ways to give each product a unique professional touch, she said.
On display at the Ramadan bazaar are also a range of handmade items donated by the parents of students, including fine linens, syrups and traditional-style clothing.
"These are made by the parents committee," Fakih said. "This is really a community."

NEW YORK - The NHL's four-month lockout finally ended Saturday night following another tough negotiation that nearly delayed training camps even longer.
The league and the players' association completed a required memorandum of understanding that had to be signed before camps were cleared to open. That will happen on Sunday with a 48-game regular season to begin on Jan. 19.
The NHL also was set to release the long-awaited schedule, minus the 510 games that were lost to the lockout.

It took all week and much longer than expected on Saturday for the memorandum to be completed. The announcement that it was finished came several hours after the union easily ratified the tentative deal reached last Sunday.
The more than 700 union members had a 36-hour window from Thursday night until Saturday morning to vote electronically. The NHL board of governors unanimously approved the deal on Wednesday.

Flying Plane While Drunk
Published August 6th, 2012
FORT PIERCE, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a St. Lucie County man has been arrested for flying a plane while drunk.
The St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office says a helicopter pilot reported seeing a plane flying very low and repeatedly trying to land early Sunday morning. After the single-engine plane landed, a Florida Highway Patrol trooper questioned the 36-year-old pilot, David Wayne King, and said he smelled alcohol on his breath.
Treasure Coast Newspapers reports King, of New Port Richey, was charged with felony reckless operation of an aircraft. A passenger, 47-year-old John Gibson of Tarpon Springs, was arrested on drug charges.
It's not known whether either man has yet obtained an attorney.
