If you logged onto a social media site like Facebook or Twitter on Tuesday, you probably saw some profile pictures are a red box with an equal sign.
Social media users adopted the symbol for the day to show support of same-sex marriage as the Supreme Court takes up the issue.
"I'm in favor of marriage equality being legalized," said Haley Lambert.
Lambert adopted the symbol for her profile picture to show her support for marriage equality.
"I just grew up with a lot of friends, and my twin sister who identify with the gay and lesbian, bi, transgender community...I just feel like it should be a non issue who they decide to be with and be committed to and have those marriage rights," said Lambert.
She said she wanted to show Facebook users another perspective to the argument.
"In the past, people have maybe put things on Facebook, my good friends and family members have put things on there that maybe I didn't agree with before and seeing that they were in favor of it, but the way that they portrayed it on there kind of convinced me otherwise, and so I was kind of hoping for the same thing to put it out there that I'm in favor so that someone could see a straight married woman who isn't a part of that community but who would like to see it legalized, for friends and family members," said Lambert.
Pastor Rodger Kiepe at Abbey Road Christian Church also supports the idea of same-sex marriage.
"More people are understanding that the things that make up our sexual orientation aren't just genitalia, there's hormones, there's all sorts of things," said Kiepe.
But not everyone supports the court taking up the issue.
"We believe marriage is of divine institution and not of human definition," said Catholic Priest Father David Hulshof.
Hulshof said there are a lot of aspects to the same-sex marriage discussion. He said as a Catholic, he aims to show compassion, but still support marriage between a man and woman for the children.
"They bring certain gifts that same sex couples would not, men and women in their gifts and equalities that children are also deserving of," said Hulshof.
He said he believes there is a way for people to still be equal without the Supreme Court redefining marriage.
"When we talk about the rights of individuals, that governments can legislate the rights of that would deal with the dignity of an individual and equality, without redefining marriage," said Hulshof.
Ultimately the issue will be up to the Supreme Court. The justices aren't expected to have a decision until June.

The food was very ordinary and I was very disappointed by the service of the restaurant staff as well. Very disappointing experience overall. I was GLAD to get off the boat.
Freeport was a very boring one day port and we were back on the boat by 1pm swimming in what they call a pool (a glass fish tank big enough for about 20 humans), showing everyone's legs in the glass. NOT COOL!!! Especially for someone who has issues with their body. To begin with, we were supposed to be able to get on the boat at 11am and at 1:30pm we were all still waiting in the terminal with people pushing forward and stepping on everyone because the border patrol decided that today was the day to make a full search of the WHOLE staff of the ship. It was pretty much CAIOS!!! Pick another ship people! Oh, my bed was HARD AS A ROCK! The pull down twin bed above was way better than the queen below! HORRIBLE!!!

Reading EXIF and IPTC with Mistral
While you may have seen me blogging and posting stories about my main projects, I've realized that some of the smaller subprojects didn't receive much attention from me in the last year. For instance Mistral, which is a meta-framework for imaging. "Meta-framework" means that it doesn't provide its own imaging code, but just abstracts some common libraries, such as Java2D or JAI (and others could be plugged in).
One of the benefits of Mistral is its simplified APIs. For instance, it's well known that often extracting metadata from images in Java is a pain in the ass. With Mistral is as easy as:
EditableImage image = EditableImage.create(new ReadOp(new File(...)));
IPTC iptc = image.getMetadata(IPTC.class);
EXIF exif = image.getMetadata(EXIF.class);
Rational shutterSpeed = getShutterSpeedValue();
Every EXIF and most of IPTC properties are accessible with standard getter methods. Furthermore, IPTC and EXIF are fully equipped JavaBeans with bound properties (i.e. PropertyChangeEvent support), which means easy integration with Swing applications. Of course, if you prefer you can even use numeric indexes of tags as in:
EXIF exif = ...
Integer value = exif.getObject(256, Integer.class);
Mistral received just a few changes recently since at the moment it's fine for my needs. But I've received some posts from people using it (and even a couple of code contributions), so - time allowing - I'll fix a couple of remaining things to productize it (at the moment you have to get the latest version by checking out sources from mistral.dev.java.net).
(Note: Opinions expressed in this article and its replies are the opinions of their respective authors and not those of DZone, Inc.)
Fabrizio Giudici replied on Sun, 2009/02/08 - 6:18pm
Jonathan Giles replied on Sun, 2009/02/08 - 10:33pm in response to: Fabrizio Giudici
Do you have any plans to implement this functionality in the coming weeks or months? Right now I am working on a program that reads and writes IPTC data, and am likely having to buy a commercial license for proprietary Java software (Imagero) to do this. This API is dated and not particularly pleasurable to work with.
If there is any way I can help, let me know and I'll see what I can do. Probably best you email me directly rather than go through this chat board (jo at jogiles.co.nz)

Top 3 Reasons to Rent a Gulf Shores Condo
When you think of Alabama, is the beach the first thing that comes to mind? Don't worry, many travelers don't associate Alabama with the beach, but the truth is Alabama is home to a great stretch of coastline along the Gulf of Mexico called Gulf Shores. These beaches are family-friendly and offer a variety of activities and fine dining. The cherry on top to this vacation is an oceanfront Gulf Shores condo. If you need even more convincing, here are the top 3 reasons to choose Gulf Shores beach condo rentals.
1. Activities on Your Doorstep
When you choose a Gulf Shores condo, you couldn't be any closer to the great variety of activities this coastline has to offer. The most popular is definitely fishing. Treat your family to a deep sea fishing excursion and bring home your catch to cook for dinner. Other outdoor activities that will keep your kids occupied from dawn until dusk include snorkeling, building sand castles, and going on dolphin watching cruises.
2. Luxury Amenities
Gulf Shores beach condo rentals can be as luxurious as you want them to be. If you're looking for a way to indulge, you won't have to leave the condo. Many oceanfront options have top-notch amenities including a soaking tub, steam showers, outdoor showers, hot tubs, roof decks, and more. Whatever amenity would make your vacation fantasy come true, there is a rental to match in Gulf Shores. From a cozy fireplace to a gorgeous chef's kitchen, no dream is too big in Gulf Shores.
3. Quality Family Time
Do you ever feel so cramped in a hotel room that you can't really relax? The opposite is true when you choose a Gulf Shores condo. You might be surprised how this environment encourages family time with long leisurely breakfasts and nightly entertainment that might include a board game or a jigsaw puzzle. When there are multiple bathrooms, bedrooms, and extra living space, the stage will be set for quality family time on your vacation.
There might be one more thing that could complete your experience with Gulf Shores beach condo rentals: your pet. Remember that many rental owners have their own pets too, so depending on the rental, pets might be welcome. When the family is all together in a beautiful place, your vacation will be on the road to perfection.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — At a time when dams are being dismantled at an unprecedented rate in the U.S., a group of businessmen (who are apparently neither scientists nor engineers) have decided to dam the White River in Anderson.
The resulting 'lake' would displace over 400 homes and businesses and destroy seven miles of mature riparian ecosystem, including a fen and other diverse native plant ecosystems in Mounds State Park.
Dams are being dismantled because they are environmentally disruptive and economically untenable. Indiana has already been dubbed the "least green" state in the country, so resorting to a practice that has been established as an environmentally damaging one is not the greatest good for Anderson or Indiana.One of the things I find particularly appalling about this plan is the lack of community input. Saying that input will be sought in Phase II is disingenuous. The ideal for community planning is to include all stakeholders from the beginning (and since this project affects a state park, all Hoosiers are stakeholders).
As one of the stakeholders, I think it's time for the Corporation for Economic Development and others to cut bait on this destructive project and turn their attentions to building on the improvements that have already occurred in Anderson, recognizing the value of the White River as a free flowing river, and making Anderson a model of sustainable practices — for the greater good of Anderson and Indiana.

Removing branches, this is what many have found themselves doing in the wake of the storm."The storm on Saturday night caused a mess for us to clean up at our shop on Washington Street," says Bismarck resident Pat Gilhooly.Days removed from the storm, the clean-up hasn't stopped."We will be back. I guess two or three more loads for sure," says Gilhooly.City crews will pick up people's branches at their home, as long as they follow the rules."Whenever homeowners have tree branches they need to dispose of, they can place them in their yard in a bundle light enough for one man to carry," says Public Works director Jeff Heintz.The city has been charging people $3.00 this week to drop off all their own limbs, because of the circumstances."If they are bringing it on a pickup truck, and it's all loaded up with branches and logs, it would have been more than $3.00, but we want to keep people moving through the line. And we understand people are experiencing some damage to their property," says Heintz.Even though it is convenient and at a bargain price, some still believe that it shouldn't cost them any money at all."It alleviates the congestion for sure. They're pulling people out of line. Getting the people with just branches out and moving. That's definitely speeding it up. But as for the charge, I'd rather they didn't," says Gilhooly.The landfill is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Publisher's Description
We talk as though we understand the term. The bank gives us a grace period. The seedy politician falls from grace. Musicians speak of a grace note. We describe an actress as gracious, a dancer as graceful. We use the word for hospitals, baby girls, kings, and premeal prayers. We talk as though we know what grace means.
But do we really understand it? Have we settled for wimpy grace? It politely occupies a phrase in a hymn, fits nicely on a church sign. Never causes trouble or demands a response. When asked, Do you believe in grace? who could say no?
Max Lucado asks a deeper question: Have you been changed by grace? Shaped by grace? Strengthened by grace? Emboldened by grace? Softened by grace? Snatched by the nape of your neck and shaken to your senses by grace?
Gods grace has a drenching about it. A wildness about it. A white-water, riptide, turn-you-upside-downness about it. Grace comes after you. It rewires you. From insecure to God secure. From regret riddled to better-because-of-it. From afraid to die to ready to fly.
Grace is the voice that calls us to change and then gives us the power to pull it off.
Lets make certain grace gets you.
Endorsements for GRACE:
Gods graceHis unconditionally loving, unmerited favoris sometimes difficult for people to grasp, even though each one of us is in desperate need of it. But in Max Lucados new book, GRACE, it is completely embraceable and understandable. Through Lucados characteristic narrative style and profound biblical understanding, we learn that Gods grace is truly much more than we deserve and greater than we imagine. --Dr. Charles F. Stanley
Max Lucado has blended his creative writing style with honesty about how he has experienced Gods grace, mercy and forgiveness in his own times of failure and despair. You will find comfort as Max shines the light of the Word of God revealing that Jesus Christ is truly the only hope that brings everlasting peace. --Franklin Graham, President and CEO, Samaritans Purse, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
Reading Max Lucado on grace is like hearing Warren Buffett on money or Julia Child on foodits a subject he spent a lifetime falling in love with. --John Ortberg, pastor and author, Menlo Park Presbyterian Church
Few writers are better than Max Lucado, no subject is better than Gods grace." --Randy Alcorn, author of Heaven and If God is Good
"Max gives us encouragement, hope and a needed reminder that the grace we all possess as followers of Jesus should empower us to move mountains, vs simply settling for pushing wimpy molehills." --Brad Lomenick, President and Executive Director, Catalyst
Max offers up a biblical vision of Gods grace that comes drenched in sweat and with a set of six-pack abs; a life-defining newness and relationship-refining kindness straight from the heart of God. --Tim Kimmel, author of Grace Based Parenting
"Some writers aim for the mind, others for the heart and a small number for the soul. With his latest book, 'Grace,' Max Lucado hits the trifecta, touching on all three." -- Cal Thomas, Syndicated and USA Today Columnist and Fox News Contributor
If you love the writings of Max Lucado, this will probably become your favorite. -- Stephen Arterburn, Founder and Chairman of New Life Ministries, host of New Life Live! and best selling author
I can think of no more needed message for weary people everywhere, and no better writer than Max Lucado to paint so gloriously the hope that "Christ in you" affords. --Louie Giglio, creator of Passion Conferences and pastor, Passion City Church

Ellen sends staff through zombie haunted house
By Carter Nacke

It may be on the bucket list for fans of "The Walking Dead," but for two members of Ellen DeGeneres' staff, a California haunted house was hell on Earth.
Ellen has sent her writer, Amy, to several haunted houses over the years. But this year, she added her executive producer, Andy, to the stunt and it paid off beautifully.
Ellen sent the pair to "The Walking Dead" Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios in Los Angeles. It starts off creepy and then gets terrifying.
The best part? Watching Andy willingly sacrifice Amy over and over. When that fails, he resorts to screaming "stop it!"
Ya, because zombies have a great history of listening.

This interview was three years past due.
I met Eric Niragira in 2010, while backpacking through Burundi. After an introduction from a mutual friend, we met over dinner in a small restaurant in Bujumbura. I listened to Eric share his story and decided I had to try to do something to help him share his story. I arranged for us to meet the following day to do an audio interview, but when I woke up the next morning sick with food poisoning, I couldn't make it.
Fast forward to a couple weeks ago when I was visiting New York City and found out via Facebook that Eric was in visiting. He was at the United Nation's Headquarters to work with colleagues from around the world to advocate for victim assistance in the 2013 Arms Trade Treaty – something in itself was under-reported throughout the tiny news coverage of the Arms Trade Treaty.
By the end of the conference, the Arms Trade Treaty was passed — with some recognition of the need for victim assistance. The preamble recognizes "that civilians, particularly women and children, account for the vast majority of those affected by armed conflict and armed violence" and "the challenges faced by victims of armed conflict and their need for adequate care, rehabilitation and social and economic inclusion" but I feel cynical in my beliefs that the support may only be on paper.
To continue to change the realities on the ground for many of the victims of armed violence and conflict, we need to continue to support organizations like CEDAC (Eric's NGO) and help people like Eric Niragira carry out their inspiring work.

Although there was a slight fall in the number of lawyers and fee earners employed by Channel Islands-headquartered Ogier last year, with the firm reporting four fewer lawyers in 2013 than in 2012, it added three partners, including one in its equity. This led to a reduction in the firm's leverage from 4.8 lawyers per equity partner to 4.5.
Strategically, Ogier sent the two lawyers it had based in London back to Jersey, including global corporate head Simon Dinning. Lawyers are now flying in and out of London as needed. Ogier argued that London is close enough to its HQ in Jersey, where almost half of its lawyers are based, that it does not need anyone there permanently.
The decision was followed in early 2014 by a much bigger strategic move, when the firm divested its fiduciary business in a management buyout by Ogier Fiduciary Services' (OFS's) partners, with an enterprise value of £180m. The sale saw private equity company Electra Partners invest £83m into OFS. While the law firm and OFS will share premises and, for a period, branding, effectively the move means Ogier, like Walkers before it, is now focusing wholly on law.
The divestment has naturally taken up much of the firm's time in recent months, but the scene is now set for future investment. Group chief executive officer (CEO) Nick Kershaw is taking the role of global managing partner and regional managing partner for Europe, while legal CEO James Bergstrom becomes regional managing partner for Asia and the Caribbean. The rest of the management structure is now focused more on sector than practice area lines.
The coming year will see Ogier focus on service delivery, with plans to create a new IT system, effectively starting from scratch, according to Kershaw. In the future, Ogier is likely to add to its partner count, to bring that high leverage and partner-to-associate ratio closer to the sector average.

Bouchard started the fourth set with a break, but lost it and found herself down 4-1. But she fought back and advanced on her third match point when Suarez Navarro hit the net.
Bouchard finished with 46 winners, 38 unforced errors and breaks on six of 14 chances in the match that took two hours 22 minutes.

Four-time Grand Slam winner Sharapova has won both of her previous matches with Bouchard, including a Paris second round in 2013.
Sharapova started slow Tuesday, falling behind 4-0 before finally winning a game. She then started to land her shots, and her serves, with more consistency and won nine of the last 10 games.
Muguruza, who was playing in a Grand Slam quarter-final for the first time in her career, eliminated defending champion Serena Williams in the second round.
Sharapova lost in the semifinals at Roland Garros in 2011, then won the title a year later to complete a career Grand Slam. She lost in last year's final to Williams.
"It was so tough losing in the final last year, being the defending champion," Sharapova said. "This year, to come back, I have the extra motivation to go further, and to be back on (this) stage is a really nice feeling."
Sharapova opened her match with a double fault, the first of eight in the match. And she lost 15 of the first 20 points.
But even though Sharapova held in the fifth game, she was broken again, this time at love, to lose the first set.

Things changed rather quickly in the second set. At 1-1, Sharapova finally broke, with some help from Muguruza.
The unseeded Spaniard, ranked 35th in the world, double-faulted twice in a row to give Sharapova her second break point of the match. The tall Russian converted when Muguruza sent a backhand long.
Although Sharapova was broken again in the set, again with a double fault, she started to hold serve more easily while giving Muguruza more trouble while receiving.
By the time the third set started, Sharapova was moving Muguruza all over the court, landing her forehands and backhands easily.
The only hiccup came in the fourth game, when Muguruza had five break points but couldn't convert any of them.
"That was one of the most important games," Sharapova said. "After I won that game, I certainly gained more confidence."

Hi I am Jessie B. and tobacco and smoking has had a big impact on my life. One my parents dont smoke but my uncle and cousins do. I developed asthma real young which could have been caused by the people in my family that smokes and asthma makes it hard to do some sports. Smoking may have taken a family friend named Harold away. Harold smoked for a while and died this past year from a heart attack!! His wife Helen is still alive and smokes and has had a brain tumor which could have been caused because of smoking. My uncle named Mike was a pretty heavy smoker and decided to quit but ended up having severe kidney problems this past year. One of his kidneys stopped working and he was in the hospital for a while. He will be getting put on dialysis soon. If these three people did not smoke they could have had a better life. Harold might still be alive, Helen and Mike might of not had to go through so much. hang in there Mike and Helen!! Harold we all miss you!!

Statement on behalf of the European Union - H.E. Mr. Hans Winkler
United Nations Conference to Review Progress Made in the Implementation of the
Programme of Action to Prevent, Combat, and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms
and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects
Statement on behalf of the European Union
H.E. Mr. Hans Winkler
State Secretary for Foreign Affairs
of Austria
New York, 26 June 2006
Mr President,
It is my honour to deliver this statement on behalf of the European Union. The Acceding Countries Bulgaria and Romania, the Candidate Countries Turkey, Croatia and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia*, the Countries of the Stabilisation and Association Process and potential candidates Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and the EFTA country Iceland, member of the European Economic Area, as well as Ukraine and the Republic of Moldova align themselves with this statement.
The European Union warmly congratulates you, Mr. President, on your appointment as President of the Review Conference. We look forward to working closely with you and the UN Secretariat (DDA) to ensure a successful outcome of this conference.
Addressing this important forum as the first speaker implies some responsibility for the European Union. Let me begin by recalling that small arms, light weapons (SALW) and their ammunition are instrumental in the deaths of more than 500.000 people annually - approximately 1.400 per day. The vast majority of victims are civilians, 300.000 people are killed by SALW in armed conflicts every year. The fight against the illicit trade in SALW has become even more urgent in the context of the intensified international action against terrorism.
By adopting the UN Programme of Action to prevent, combat and eradicate the illicit trade in SALW in all its aspects in 2001 the international community responded to a worldwide concern that the proliferation and misuse of SALW have serious humanitarian and socio-economic consequences and pose a threat to peace, stability and sustainable development. Over the past five years, considerable progress has been made in the implementation of the Programme of Action. Regional engagements and initiatives have been undertaken, among others the EU's strategy on SALW in 2005 and the Antigua Guatemala Declaration adopted in May 2006. However, we are far from achieving full implementation.
Mr. President,
Now, five years after its adoption, we reconvene to review progress to date in implementing the Programme of Action and to further develop our strategies for the future. We should not forget that we are doing so in order to reduce the death and suffering caused by small arms and light weapons and to alleviate the serious impact of their proliferation on conflict, development and human rights. We also need to bear in mind that those parts of the world most affected by the illicit spread of SALW as well as international public opinion would hold this conference responsible for a weak result.
We, the Member States, must make best use of the Review Conference by adopting a forward looking and substantial outcome document. At the January Preparatory Committee there was consensus that the UN Programme of Action, although not yet fully implemented, was the key starting point for further action on small arms. The European Union is convinced that United Nations' efforts to control SALW have to be intensified in particular in those crucial areas where significant obstacles to full implementation persist. We believe these are transfer controls, marking and tracing, brokering regulations, ammunition and the integration of small arms measures into development assistance. In addition, the question of how to structure the follow-up to the Review Conference is central to the EU in ensuring progress in the further implementation of the Programme of Action.
Mr. President,
In the European Union's estimation, your composite non-paper released after intensive consultations with Member States on 18 May 2006 and proposing text for the outcome document is an excellent and balanced basis from which to proceed into the finalisation phase of the document. You can rely on the support of the EU for this draft which contains, among other important provisions, a number of valid references to our priority issues.
The EU attaches great importance to improved controls over the transfer, understood as exports, imports, transhipment and transit of small arms and light weapons. The Programme of Action contains important guidance on controlling transfers of SALW in section II paragraph 11, but we need to build on this and identify key common factors for Member States to consider before issuing a licence for an international transfer of SALW. The EU favours the use of minimum common standards including criteria to determine whether a proposed transfer of SALW will aggravate a conflict, repress human rights, undermine development or constitute a risk of diversion in the recipient country. In recent years, the Transfer Control Initiative (TCI) has been instrumental in developing global guidelines that reflect Member States' existing responsibilities under international law when it comes to considering authorisations for the transfer of SALW. Therefore, the EU stands ready to discuss such guidelines on the basis of, inter alia, the global guidelines for national controls governing transfers of SALW, agreed by representatives of 11 governments at the Nairobi Conference in April 2006, with the aim of building consensus support at this conference. Let me emphasize at this point that global guidelines are not aimed at imposing supply side controls on the legal trade in SALW, but at providing national authorities in all Member States with a set of principles reflecting and summarizing States' existing responsibilities under international law.
The 1998 EU Code of Conduct on arms exports is one of several examples of agreed regional instruments. Together with many partners from around the world the EU was involved in facilitating inclusive dialogue on transfer controls. Recent progress on transfer control has been achieved in Central America, the Mercosur region, the Caribbean and the Great Lakes and Horn of Africa region. Only two weeks ago, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has adopted a landmark legally binding Convention on Small Arms, Light Weapons, their Ammunition and other associated material. Many regions have called for increased co-operation on transfer controls within the framework of the UN Programme of Action. The EU strongly encourages these and other regions and states to voice their support for enhanced SALW transfer controls during the conference.
Mr. President,
For the European Union, the fight against the illicit trade in ammunition is another pressing task. Surplus ammunition can be diverted from military stockpiles into zones of instability or get into the hands of terrorists or criminal gangs. From the beginning of the United Nations' process on SALW, ammunition has formed an integral part of the problem. In 2005, the report submitted by the chairman of the Open-Ended Working Group on Marking and Tracing of SALW which was endorsed by consensus contained a recommendation to address the issue of SALW ammunition in a comprehensive manner as part of a separate process conducted within the framework of the United Nations. In 2005, the UN General Assembly for the first time adopted a resolution exclusively dedicated to the problems of conventional ammunition stockpiles in surplus and the illicit trafficking of ammunition. The European Union welcomes the reference to ammunition in the draft outcome document.
Global standards on marking and tracing of small arms and light weapons are essential if we are to track and crack down on the illegal trade in these weapons. The European Union therefore appreciates the adoption of an international instrument in this regard by the UN General Assembly in 2005. The instrument is a first and important step in the implementation of the Programme of Action. We believe that a reference to further strengthening the instrument in the future, e.g. by making it legally binding, should be agreed upon by this conference.
Brokering controls remain a high priority for the European Union as illicit brokering is recognised being among the main factors fuelling the illegal trade in SALW world-wide. The EU therefore fully supports the First Committee resolution which calls for the establishment of a Group of Governmental Experts on brokering to be convened as soon as possible after the Review Conference. In our view, the Group should take a practical approach to its work and decide on the measures necessary to combat the harm done by unscrupulous arms brokers. Important work has been undertaken on this issue including the OSCE principles on the control of brokering as well as Norway's and the Netherlands' efforts in raising awareness and encouraging the discussion of the matter.
The EU also believes that the issue of the possession of small arms and light weapons is of relevance in the context of the Programme of Action and should be duly considered.
Mr. President,
The European Union is convinced that assistance to countries affected by armed violence should be provided as an integrated part of development strategies. We hope that the Review Conference will draw lessons from armed violence reduction programmes, such as EU-supported initiatives in Cambodia and South Eastern Europe. Given the close link between security and development, the conference should call on Member States that require assistance to increase their capacity to control small arms and reduce armed violence and to address these issues within their poverty reduction planning processes. The conference may also take note of the "Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development" which was adopted on 7 June and clearly spells out the linkages between armed violence and development.
The EU believes that Member States should mainstream action to eliminate illicit SALW and integrate armed violence prevention programmes in plans and strategies related to security, development and poverty reduction. In this regard, we are pleased with the text contained in the draft outcome document as many donor countries need such references in order to be able to provide substantial assistance. By making more resources available to affected Member States mainstreaming action on illicit SALW will certainly improve the implementation of the Programme of Action.
The new European strategy on SALW and their ammunition adopted in December 2005 formalises the Union's existing small arms policies. It is a strategy with a global geographic scope. It identifies Africa as the continent worst affected by the impact of internal and cross border conflicts aggravated by the destabilising influx of SALW, but the strategy covers Eastern Europe, Asia and Latin America as well. The EU expresses its readiness to provide financial and technical support to governments, NGOs, regional organisations and arrangements engaged in the fight against SALW trafficking and misuse, and the elimination of dangerous small arms stockpiles. One highly effective example of a regional approach supported financially by the EU is the joint UNDP and Stability Pact initiative SEESAC (South Eastern and Eastern Europe Clearinghouse for SALW Control). It provides operational support and programme development assistance to a wide range of stakeholders across the region. SEESAC is now a proven capability and could act as a model for other regions to follow.
The European Union encourages the Review Conference to take full account of the important work of relevant NGOs and civil society, which have provided valuable contributions to the SALW process from the outset.
Mr. President,
In the view of the European Union, part IV of the outcome document on the follow-up of the Review Conference is of utmost importance and one of the central parts of this document. Only a well-organized follow-up provides the needed incentives and enables us to assess where we are making progress and where we are lagging behind in the implementation of the 2001 Programme of Action. The question of how to structure the follow-up to this conference is instrumental in ensuring progress in the further implementation of the Programme of Action.
The European Union commends you, Mr. President, for the draft for part IV of the outcome document as it provides a good basis for the structure and vision that we need in the follow-up to the Review Conference. While agreeing with other Member States on the importance of a practical focus on activities to be carried out in implementing the Programme of Action, we are convinced that only the horizon of further formal meetings of Member States including another Review Conference no later than 2012 would put the necessary pressure on Member States to comply. The ultimate goal of this conference to accelerate and enhance implementation of the Programme of Action can only be attained by a well structured follow-up process.
To sum up, Mr. President, the European Union wants this Review Conference to objectively take stock of our achievements over the past five years and on this basis to adopt a forward looking and substantial outcome document. In this respect, Mr. President, you can rely on the full and consistent support of the European Union. We are ready to enter into open and constructive negotiations with all interested delegations and, with reciprocal engagement from all our partners, we are confident that we will be able to find common ground for substantial results.

Like the S4A, the S4X-H is primarily designed for use in medium size control rooms, but given their excessive power, the S4X-H are also capable of working in larger environments. Because both models in the S4X series have identical tweeters and midrange drivers handling frequencies above 350 Hz, any combination of either model will integrate perfectly in a 5.1 or 7.1 installation.
The S4X-H midfield monitor combines the X-ART tweeter with a 5" HexaCone midrange and two redeveloped 9" HexaCone woofers. Each of the woofers and midrange drivers are driven by a 250 W ICE module. To allow the X-ART tweeter to extend to its highest frequencies, it is combined with a unique ADAM Audio A/B amplifier. This unique amplifier has ultra low distortion and an immense internal bandwidth of more than 1MHz. Combine this amplifier with the X-ART tweeter and you get a fascinating sound that is effortless and of highest resolution.
Improperly designed larger monitors are always at risk at compromising the overall sound with bass reproduction that is too intense. As in all ADAM Audio designed speakers, both versions of the S4X have been designed to combine both the power and volume of the bass (28 Hz at -3 dB point) with the highest possible precision. Combine this with the transparent high and midrange frequencies of the S4X and this will give an engineer a new quality level of control and performance for larger rooms.
Add more to your order for a powerful 5.1 or 7.1 surround-sound system.

On Wednesday, the Los Angeles Angels finally gave up on Scott Kazmir, the lefthanded starter who at one time had been one of the top prospects in the major leagues, releasing him and eating more than $13 million remaining on his contract.
Kazmir was the first-round draft pick of the New York Mets (15th overall) in the 2002 draft. Two years later, he was sent by the Mets to the then-Devil Rays in an ill-advised deal for a washed-up Victor Zambrano (that is, if you think Victor Z was ever good enough to be termed "washed up"). Kazmir finished ninth in American League Rookie of the Year voting in 2005 and led the AL in strikeouts in 2007 with 239, at age 23.
When he was dealt to the Angels in 2009 just before the waiver deadline on August 30, he put up six outstanding starts and helped the Angels into the playoffs. But since then he's been awful; he posted a 5.94 ERA in 2010, which would have been worst in the AL if he'd had 12 more innings pitched, and got pounded in his only 2011 major league start.
But Kazmir is only 27. And he is lefthanded. Should a team take a flyer on him, either at the minimum salary or on a minor league deal?

Excellence in Graduate Mentoring
Faculty mentoring is of primary importance to the success of any graduate student's educational experience. The mentor has the unique responsibility to ensure students become knowledgeable and sophisticated in their chosen fields of study, while also assisting them in developing the skills and attributes necessary for success after graduation. In addition, effective mentors recognize that graduate education involves describing and explaining the values, norms, and practices of a particular discipline. In this way, mentors gradually transform their graduate students into future intellectual leaders and noteworthy contributors to society.
2013 Mentoring Award Recipients
The Graduate College is very pleased to announce the selection of Dr. Christine Williams and Dr. Jeanette Wyneken as the 2013 recipients of the Excellence in Graduate Mentoring Award.
Dr. Christine Williams is a Professor in the Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing and Director of the Ph.D. in Nursing Program. During the past six years at FAU, Dr. Williams has mentored more than 35 students by serving on dissertation and comprehensive examination committees as well as advising research and teaching assistants. She has received many accolades for her work, and in 2010, was named the Ronald and Elizabeth Blake Distinguished Professor in Nursing. Her students credit her for being an essential part of their educational and professional careers. She sets high expectations for herself and encourages her students to do the same by mentoring them through their research, grant proposals and participation in conferences. Not only does she demonstrate leadership in nursing, but she also serves as the Vice Chair for the Institutional Review Board of the University. Dr. Williams demonstrates the true meaning of being a mentor.
Dr. Jeanette Wyneken is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences. The faculty and students who have been influenced by Dr. Wyneken are quick to explain how her contributions have had a positive impact on their educational experiences and careers. Perhaps the most distinguishing proof of her advising abilities is that all of the masters and doctoral graduates in her program have found careers in their desired fields; as educators, natural resource managers, or researchers. The success of her students parallels the time and effort she dedicates to helping them succeed. Dr. Wyneken has co-authored 21 peer-reviewed publications with graduate students as the lead author. She has been published 50 times in peer-reviewed journals, and has received over $71,000 in funding in 2013 alone. Dr. Wyneken tailors her support based on learner's needs and is crucial to the success of her students.
Please join the Graduate College in formally congratulating these professors for their outstanding efforts in graduate mentoring at FAU. Dr. Williams and Dr. Wyneken will be officially recognized at the annual Graduate College Awards Reception on October 10, 2013.

Gallatin National Forest: Sheep Fire near Gardiner burns 210 acres
The Gallatin National forest Service says the Sheep Fire has burned up to an estimated 210 acres. Officials say it's the most active in the Paradise Valley and Gardiner areas. Gallatin National Forest service says the Sheep Fire is located on the Sawtooth Mountain in Tom Miner Basin, approximately 25 miles northwest of Gardiner.
Gallatin National Forest reports slower activity on the North Eightmile Fire which started Friday. As of Saturday afternoon, North Eightmile Fire near the Gallatin Crest ridgeline has burned up to 76 acres.
Karen Tuscano is the Information Officer for the Gallatin National Forest Service in Livingston.Tuscano says managing and containing wildfires in the Paradise Valley has been difficult.
"We don't have the of local resources to help us out," said Tuscano.
She told NBC Montana the North Eightmile Fire is still a concern and it's burned nearly double since Friday's reported 48 acres. She says the the Sheep Fire continues to burn.
"The helicopter tried to drop some buckets on it, but it was too windy for the helicopter so they had to back off and watch it," said Tuscano.
NBC Montana traveled though the Paradise Valley area and up Divide Road, off Highway 89 South -- only to find thick smoke, billowing into the air. NBC Montana's Eric Turcio was on the scene and reported having trouble breathing as he climbed into higher elevation.
The view of Trail Creek and Divide Road did not allow you to see much as the air was thick and smokey. We noticed it was not until you drove down Divide Road to Highway 89 South, the smoke in the air began to clear.
Tuscano says most of the smoke is coming from wildfires burning in Idaho and surrounding areas of Southwest Montana.
'It makes it hard to see the fires. For instance, right now if we go above Paradise Valley you probably would not see a lot of the smoke in Eightmile Fire," explained Tuscano.
Gallatin National Forest officials tell us warmer and dryer weather is expected throughout the weekend and that could increase fire activity.
