Cairo Declaration on the Protection of Cultural Property
The Cairo Declaration on the Protection of Cultural Property was adopted by consensus at a regional conference convened from 14 to 16 February 2004 in order to mark the 50th anniversary of the 1954 Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict. This meeting was organized jointly by the Egyptian national IHL Committee, the ICRC, the Egyptian Red Crescent and UNESCO. In particular, the Declaration recommends that States should accede to the 1954 Convention and its two Protocols of 1954 and 1999 and that measures should be adopted in order to implement these instruments at national level.
Inspired by the Preamble of the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict declaring that "damage to cultural property belonging to any people whatsoever means damage to the cultural heritage of all humankind, since each people makes its contribution to the culture of the world";
Bearing in mind that the UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property which entered into force on 24 April 1972, provides that each State has the duty to protect cultural heritage located on its territory against the dangers of theft, illicit excavations and illicit export and to combat these practices by all available means, in particular by eliminating their roots, putting an end to them and facilitating their restitution;
Referring to the Model Treaty for the Prevention of Crimes that Infringe on the Cultural Heritage of People in the Form of Movable Property as a tool for preventing this form of crime and guaranteeing the restitution of illicitly exported property;
Recalling the provisions of the 2001 UNESCO Universal Declaration on Cultural Diversity which recognizes cultural diversity as "common heritage of humankind", the protection of which constitutes a moral necessity and should be considered as an integral part of the respect for human dignity;
And confirming the provisions of the 2003 UNESCO Declaration on the Intentional Destruction of Cultural Heritage, recognizing the importance of cultural heritage and the obligation to combat all forms of its intentional destruction in order to be able to t ransmit the cultural heritage to the succeeding generations and insisting on the necessity for States to take all the appropriate measures in order to ensure the protection of cultural heritage in accordance with international law and, in particular, in the event of armed conflict and in the case of occupation accordingly to the principles and objectives of international conventions and UNESCO Recommendations on the protection of heritage during military operations;
Implementing the Declaration adopted by the 28th Conference of the Red Cross and the Red Crescent on 6 of December 2003, calling upon parties to armed conflicts to provide the necessary protection of cultural property and to prevent its destruction, abuse or theft as well as guaranteeing full respect for the rules of international humanitarian law in this field;
Convinced that the respect for cultural property of nations reflects the respect for cultural diversity and diversity of civilizations of human beings and constitutes a strong line of defense against feelings of hatred and greed that expended during contemporary armed conflicts and requires international cooperation to put an end to it;
And sharing with the international community the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the 1954 Hague Convention under the high auspices of Mrs. Suzanne Mubarak, President of the Egyptian Red Crescent Society and upon invitation of the Ministry of Justice of the Arab Republic of Egypt; the International Conference celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict was held in Cairo from the 14th to 16th of February 2004;
The Egyptian National Commission of International Humanitarian Law and the International Committee of the Red Cross took in charge the organization of the Conference, in coordination with the League of Arab States, UNESCO, the United Nat ions Office on Drugs and Crime, the Parliamentary Commission of the International Humanitarian Law at the People's Assembly, the Ministry of Information, the Egyptian Red Crescent Society, the Egyptian Council for Foreign Affairs, the Supreme Council for Antiquities and the Public Information Authority;
The Conference was honored by the presence of high-level Egyptian officials, representatives of Arab States, representatives of the General Secretary of the League of Arab States, the International Committee of the Red Cross, UNESCO, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the Secretariat of Arab Red Crescent and Red Cross Societies, the Egyptian Red Cross Society and a number of Arab and foreign experts and professors specialized in the field of international humanitarian law and the protection of cultural property;
The participants expressed their appreciation for the organization of the Conference celebrating the 50th anniversary of 1954 Hague Convention in Egypt, the cradle of civilization and insisted on their collective commitment to respect international humanitarian law which extends its protection to all human beings and their cultural property without discrimination or selectivity in order to reduce the suffering, to guarantee the respect for human dignity and to establish a more human society raising the principle of "the protection of human dignity".
On the closure of their work, the participants adopted the following recommendations :
1) To call upon States not yet party to the 1954 Convention and/or its 1954 First and/or the 1999 Second Protocol to proceed to the accession to these instruments. The Second Protocol will enter into force on 9 March 2004.
2) To urge States to harmonize their national legis lations and regulations with the provisions of the 1954 Hague Convention and its two Protocols guaranteeing the suppression of all violations of the rules concerning the protection of cultural property in the event of armed conflict, the punishment of offenders or persons ordering the commission of offences and the protection of the distinctive sign of the protection of cultural property from all abuses.
3) To urge States to promote the identification of cultural property, the preparation of the relevant inventories in all States, the use of the distinctive sign of the 1954 Convention and the communication of this information at regional and international level in order to ensure that it is known.
4) To invite national commissions for humanitarian law to devote the necessary effort for the protection of cultural property and to adopt the national measures for the implementation of the 1954 Convention and its two Protocols at the national level as being an integral part of international humanitarian law in order to implement them, exchange information and cooperation with the relevant national commissions in this field;
5) To invite States, which have not done so, to establish national commissions for international humanitarian law and national advisory committees and to provide them with the competence for implementing the mechanisms for the protection of cultural property at the national level;
6) To give a priority to the inclusion of the subject of the protection of cultural property in educational and training programs for the military forces and the persons responsible for the enforcement of laws, as well to including it in the international humanitarian law programs taught at schools and universities;
7) To encourage cooperation between States in the field of exchange of information and to profit from the support provided by the UNESCO and the ICRC in the fields of technical assistance, exchange of information and advisory assistance on adopting laws and regulations concerning the protection of cultural property;
8) To promote international, regional and national dialogue on the means of enforcing the protection of cultural heritage and to encourage the organization of seminars and workshops in the Arab countries in order to disseminate knowledge of the rules for the protection of cultural property and to exchange expertise and technical assistance among them and with the relevant international organizations active in this field;
9) To request the International Humanitarian Law Follow-Up Committee to include the recommendations contained in the present Declaration in the regional plan of action for the year 2004;
10) To urge the United Nations Committee on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice to accord special attention to the protection of cultural property by encouraging States to conclude bilateral agreements based on the Model Treaty for the Prevention of Crimes that Infringe on the Cultural Heritage of People in the Form of Movable Property and to establish legal and technical mechanisms for this purpose and to reinforce the international cooperation as a means to prevent theft of cultural property, illicit excavations, illicit traffic, import or export of cultural property and also urge the Committee on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice to recommend that special attention be accorded to this subject during the deliberations of the United Nations Eleventh Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice.
Finally, the participants expressed their deep gratitude to the distinguished President of Egyptian Red Crescent Society, Mrs. Suzanne Mubarak of putting this conference under her auspices and to the organizing bodies, especially the Egyptian Ministry of Justice, the National Commission for International Humanitar ian Law, the International Committee of the Red Cross, the UNESCO and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.

MP promises help after visit to repair crisis properties (From The Bolton News)
MP promises help after visit to repair crisis properties
Updated 12:42pm Thursday 13th February 2014 in News By Tui Benjamin, Reporter
A TOWN centre estate in the middle of a row over repair works and poor housing conditions has been visited by Bury South MP Ivan Lewis.
He spoke to tenants following complaints of damp, mouldy conditions, rotting bricks and leaking roofs on the St Thomas' Estate as revealed in the Radcliffe Times last week.
Conditions in many of the 90 houses in the Six Town Housing-managed estate were deemed so bad by tenants that they have called for the properties to be condemned.
Mr Lewis said: "Following complaints I've received from residents I wanted to see what conditions were like on the St Thomas estate for myself.
"Many residents were very positive while others raised concerns relating to the need for urgent roof repairs and internal refurbishment works.
"I intend to raise these issues with Six Town Housing and will work with them and local councillors to resolve these issues as soon as possible."
A spokeswoman for Six Town Housing said most of the problems highlighted had now been corrected, with repair works carried out for several "satisfied"
However, she said other cases had been more problematic because residents had not officially reported the complaints or were not at the property when Six Town Housing visited.
The spokeswoman said: "Six Town Housing understands, and continues to take seriously, the ongoing concerns of residents on St Thomas' Estate, Radcliffe.
"The property condition report mentioned in the story was commissioned as a result of residents previously raising concerns.
"To implement the full recommendations of the report is a major piece of work, requiring significant investment, and needs both planning and building control consent. The improvement programme will include reroofing and cladding of the spoiling brickwork.
"We will continue to carry out day-to-day repairs until the programme starts and would ask tenants that if they are experiencing any problems, to please contact us straight away.
"Significant investment is planned for St Thomas' Estate in the 2015/16 financial year and Six Town Housing would like to reassure all tenants of our commitment to their safety and the safety of their homes."
But Magda Csatlos, ex-chairman of the now disbanded St Thomas' Estate Tenants and Residents Association, said 2015 or 2016 could be too long to wait.
She said: "This is not right.
These houses cannot wait two years or a year — they are a danger. The houses will be past repair if Six Town Housing does not fix them this year."
To register a complaint with Six Town Housing: call 161 686 8000, 0808 144 5368 or 0161 686 8368, go to sixtownhousing.org/contact-us or download the Six Town Housing app.

The Columbia man sentenced to five years in prison Feb. 5
for his role in a 2010 death after a University of South Carolina football game
wants a new trial and reconsideration to be given to his sentence.
Curtis Simms was found guilty of breach of peace of a high and
aggravated nature by a jury after five days of testimony.The jury found Simms not
guilty on an involuntary manslaughter charge. Both charges stem from a fight
between Simms, 27, and 20-year-old Allen Gasque, of Marion, resulting in Gasque
being run over by a truck on Shop Road at about 9 p.m. Oct. 9, 2010. Gasque later
died at an area hospital.
Judge Diane Goodstein gave Simms a 10-year sentence
suspended to five years in prison, followed by three years probation.
On Feb. 8, Simms' attorneys Johnny Gasser and Greg Harris
filed a motion to set aside the sentence or reduce the
sentence. The defense attorneys claimed that the Omnibus Crime Bill passed in
June 2010 allows all breach of peace charges in the state code have a maximum
of a $500 fine and/or 30 days in prison.
Once a hearing is set for this motion,
the defense attorneys said they will provide testimony and documents to support
their position, court documents stated.
A motion for a new trial was also filed Feb. 8 by the
defense attorneys, claiming Simms did not have a fair trial.
"In the state's closing argument, prosecution stated the
defendant, through closing remarks, conceded his guilt on the breach of peace
high and aggravated charge," according to court documents. "Counsel of the
defendant objected and the court issued a curative instruction. These comments
by the prosecution regarding concession of guilt were so egregious and
prejudicial that the defendant's right to a fair trial and just verdict were
If a new trial is not granted, the defense requested a
judgment of acquittal because they say there was insufficient evidence to
substation a conviction.
No court date has been set at this time.

How Do I Register Type Libraries, ActiveX Controls, and ActiveX Servers?
Primary Software: Measurement Studio>>Measurement Studio for Visual Basic 6
Primary Software Version: 3.0.1
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A
How do I manually register type libraries (.TLB), ActiveX controls (.OCX), and ActiveX servers (.DLL and .EXE)?
Type Libraries
Type libraries are binary files that contain all of the type information needed to utilize the procedures and classes in a .DLL. To register a type library, you should use regtlib.exe as follows:
ActiveX Controls
ActiveX controls are files with a .OCX extension. These controls come in 16-bit and 32-bit forms, with 32-bit being the most common. To register an ActiveX control, you should use regsvr32.exe as follows:
Note: If you have a 16-bit control, you should run regsvr instead of regsvr32. If your ActiveX control is registered incorrectly, you must first unregister it and then register it again.
You will get a dialog box prompting you that your control has been unregistered or registered successfully. To unregister a control, use the switch /u (regsvr32 /u "<Full path of .OCX file>").
ActiveX Servers
ActiveX servers can be in the form of dynamic link libraries (.DLLs) and executables (.EXEs). DLLs are registered like an ActiveX control with regsvr32 as in the previous section. However, when registering an .EXE, you must use call the .EXE file with the switch /RegServer as follows:
To unregister an EXE ActiveX Server use the switch /UnRegServer (C:\TestStand\Bin\REngine.exe /UnRegServer).
Note: If you find that you are dealing extensively with type libraries, ActiveX controls, and ActiveX servers, you may find the utility linked below useful. It is a very simple utility that allows you to quickly register and unregister type libraries, ActiveX controls, and ActiveX servers. The application is distributed freely by the Common Controls Replacement Project (CCRP), and the readme file included with the application explains how to use it.

Virginia Ungar, MD, of the Buenos Aires Psychoanalytic Association, will be the SFCP 2014 Visiting Professor.
Dr. Ungar is a training and supervising analyst at the Buenos Aires Psychoanalytic Association. She has lectured throughout South America and the United States and published papers (mostly in Spanish) on a broad set of topics including the place of infant observation and child psychoanalysis in psychoanalytic theory as a whole and its importance in adult psychoanalytic training; working with severely disturbed patients; the contributions of Bion and Meltzer to understanding trauma; a container/contained approach in the supervisory process, and the aesthetic model of Donald Meltzer, with whom she worked closely in supervision. Although her training emphasized Klein's work, she notes that her mind has expanded in the last decade. Dr. Ungar says, "I read Winnicott, Aulagnier, Green, the Botellas. And of course my practice has changed. I'm still interested in these authors, but I try to be myself and think, supported by my internal dialogue with my teachers."

Wasps kick their tournament off against Welsh outfit Newport Gwent Dragons at Adams Park on Saturday October 13 at 20.10 before heading to Italy to take on Rugby Mogliano.
There are back to back games against Bayonne for the second year running in December and Southwell says, the nature of the competition means that there are no second chances with every single game vital to top the pool and qualify for the Quarter-Finals.
"Playing in Europe brings with it a different kind of pressure but one I think we are all very much looking forward to. From our point of view we've got a home game up first which, if we want to do anything in this tournament, we've got start well in and get that vital first win."
"Newport are a good strong side and they are going well this season so it's not an easy first clash for us but in this tournament there aren't many second chances - you've got to win your home games and go away and do well to give yourself any chance of qualifying for the knock-out stages and that's our target this weekend."
Southwell said he hoped Wasps could give the crowd an entertaining game on Saturday night.
"If the weather is decent and our crowd can generate a good evening atmosphere there on Saturday night, it could be a great game under the lights. We played Newport in a high scoring night game at Adams Park last season, though unfortunately we came out on the wrong side of the score-line, but there will be two teams there looking to play."
Southwell also said he looked forward to the challenges of facing Mogliano and Bayonne in the coming months.
"I don't know too much about Mogliano to be honest but I know when we went to Rovigo last year they threw absolutely everything at us and we did well to get the bonus point late in the game so I can't imagine it will be much different. Italian sides always give you a massive physical workout and that's what we will get there. Bayonne we know well from last year and I've played them a bit when I was in France as well. They have a formidable group of players there and we can't wait to go down there and play them. Their ground is fantastic with a great atmosphere and that's a challenge you want to meet head on."
Don't forget our great ticket offer for Saturday night's game! Fans can purchase a ticket for the Newport game and receive a like for like ticket FREE for the game against Bayonne (December 13) in an offer that is available for all areas of the ground.

BELLEVILLE (AP) — The Roman Catholic Diocese of Belleville in southern Illinois is pairing its parishes so they can be served by one priest.
According to a plan released Thursday, the move will mean no parish in the diocese will be closed anytime soon.
Diocese spokesman Monsignor John Myler says the plan encourages the parishes to prepare for a time when only 50 priests will be available to pastor. He says parishes have been instructed to begin working jointly immediately.
Myler says the parishes are to implement the pastoral plan in a dynamic, flexible, gradual manner. He says if two or more parishes decide it is better to close a church building, it would be a decision of those parishes.
The diocese covers the 28 southernmost Illinois counties and includes 121 parishes.

As they stand at the final resting place of their loved ones, family members are trying to make sense of what happened after a fatal police chase early Saturday morning in Girard."I was shocked more than anything, because you know you don't expect to hear anything like this, especially about your kids' father," said Chantel Dixon, she's the mother of the driver's three children.Investigators said Antonio Brigham, 36 and Harold Hilton, 66, were both killed on Glisson Road. Sardis Police say Officer Mark Gatlin tried to pull over Brigham in his gold Pontiac Bonneville in Sardis. Investigators say the officer saw the car weaving on Highway 23, and suspected a DUI. Police say Brigham failed to stop, leading Officer Gatlin on a police chase into Girard.
The chase ended in the middle of Glisson Road, which stretches for two miles between Creek Road and Claxton Road. That's where police say the driver lost control of the car. The impact was so great they say EMA had to use the Jaws of Life for nearly an hour to get both victims out of the car. Burke County paramedics say both Brigham and Hilton died from blunt force trauma.
Police say Brigham was driving with a suspended license.
And as Georgia State Patrol continues to investigate the crash, both families are trying to find a way to cope."Right now I'm kind of going around in like a circle, but I'm asking God to strengthen me, and give me health and strength to go on forward," said Katherine Hilton, one of the victim's sisters.
Original Story
Two men are dead following the second fatal police chase in a week in the CSRA.
The Sardis Police Department tells FOX54 that Antonio Dontie Brigham, 36, and Harold Edward Hilton, 66, were in a vehicle that was allegedly weaving on the road and suspected to have an intoxicated driver behind the wheel. They failed to stop when Sardis Police attempted to stop them.
The two men allegedly led the chase around Sardis, then outside city limits towards Girard. The men eventually turned down a dirt road, Glisson Road, where they "lost control" and "wrapped around a large tree."
Brigham and Hilton both died due to blunt force trauma. Burke County EMA crews worked for over an hour with the jaws of life to try to pull the men out of the vehicle.
Brigham was apparently the driver, though his license was suspended and vehicle uninsured.
This fatal police chase is the second in a week across our area. Earlier this week, two drivers were killed when they led Richmond County deputies across state lines and into South Carolina.
Sardis Police Chief Gary Jones says the responding officer "followed policy and procedure."

We do not use VAULT. We're using newtwork shared folder with 3 machine.
In some cases three users opening same assembly and sub assemblies. In theis case Inventor showing us an error like "You can not save file. Use save-as" But in this case it's impossible to work share files.
We're openning/using same project file (ipj). I remember that older versions of Inventor give us to chance that not save some subassemblies of main assembly. In this case you may save newer version of assembly files..
How can I share network folder to share my assemly files with the other colleques?
Using Inventor 2013 and not Vault. Because we're using Linux file server and very happy with it...
Solved! Go to Solution.
see attached picture for what may help you decide which way to go.
(note the picture is from inv 2012 in case you notice a slight difference)
if that makes sense, then you can read up on each option in the inventor help / supporting documentation.
but do some testing before you commit to either option. ensure you are aware of how to take ownership if one of your users is not in the office and has left something checked out, and so on. (ie do you need to know his / her logon to manage the situation, steal checkout... and so on).
Perfect... Thanks...
I will check all options and choose the best on which is fitting to our condition...
I tested "Share mode"... Yes, it's very difficult to work with it unfortunatelly!
We tested one day and opern files by 3 users. And now we have big trouble! Diffirent files has been checked out by different users!... How can I cancel all "check out" signs from all files?...
I changed the project mode "Single" but there is still apperaring "check out by xxx user".
How can I delete all check out signs from all files and sub-assemblies?... We have lots of sub files.
First, NEVER test anything in Inventor on live data!!!!
You checked files out but now need to check them back in. You should be able set your project up as shared again and check the files in.
Yes, you're right...
I'm following your way already incase of check in every file which cehecked ot before...
By the way any information about semi-isolated mod?...
It's been many years since I did anything with shared or semi-isolated projects. We did not adopt either because they cause us more trouble than they were worth. We also don't use vault. We've looked at it several times but feel the same about vault as shared mode - it would get in the way more than help. Our projects, with the exception of shared libraries, are quite custom and independant of each other. When we assign multiple designers to a project, one designer acts as the lead and is responsible for making sure designers don't step on each other while using Inventor. It also helps that all of our designers are in close proximity to each other and can talk about what they are working on in inventor.

[TEST] Play BTS in a Day to win $5.6 million on Friday
[TEST] With no time left to beat the streak in 2012, you can now win in a single day
When we debuted Beat the Streak back in 2001, several outside 'experts' were convinced that with enough people playing, someone would beat Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak within a few years. They claimed the odds were only 250,000-1, and that if we had at least a quarter of a million people picking, the record had to fall. After all, picking one hitter a day to get a base hit sounds pretty simple, especially when you can choose from more than 300 hitters.
Twelve seasons, tens of millions of streaks and more than $16 million of combined prizes later, no fan has been able to score higher than 49. In fact 2012 has seen only one person reach 40, and with only a week left in the season no one can eclipse 56.
It took 65 1/2 seasons of modern baseball until Joe DiMaggio set his historic mark. We don't feel like waiting that long for one of our fans to break his record.
Since there is no one left with a chance of winning in 2012, we've decided to give everyone one final shot at this year's grand prize.
Introducing Beat the Streak in a Day: One day, 57 picks, $5.6 million on the line.
Traditional BTS requires patience and persistence -- you select one or two players to get a hit each day, stringing together a hitting streak over several weeks or months. Well, we don't have weeks or months left in the 2012 season. What we do have is Beat the Streak in a Day.
On Friday, you pick 57 Major Leaguers who you think will get a hit. Go 57-for-57, and the cash is yours. If no user picks perfectly, the user with the most correct selections will win $5,000.
All those years of Beat the Streak frustration -- the 15-game streak ended with a hitless pinch-hitting appearance, the 20-gamer you lost in a rain-shortened game, your 25-game run wiped out on a first-inning injury -- this is your chance to erase them in just one day. Posey, Miggy, McCutchen and every other big leaguer is on the table. Enter your own picks or have MLB.com select for you using players ranked among the top 150 hitters -- the choice is yours.

AUSTIN, Texas —
"A wave of laws is now bluntly focused on driving providers out of business via a thicket of regulations designed not to benefit patients but, as some of their proponents admit openly, to make it impossible for many providers to come into compliance," said Rachel Benson Gold, director of policy analysis for Guttmacher, in a report last month. The laws "are a solution in search of a problem."
While Planned Parenthood is the largest single provider of abortions in the U.S., most women undergo the procedure at independent clinics, which function more like local small businesses. Unable to access the same government grants, tax- exempt donations and political clout, they often have a harder time affording renovations required by recent state laws.
Most won't be able to afford the cost, said Charlotte Taft, who runs the Washington-based Abortion Care Network, which represents independent providers nationally.
Building a new surgical center with four operating rooms would cost $6 million to $8 million, said Jason Cagle, chief financial officer for United Surgical Partners International, which operates 64 centers in Texas, more than any other company. Abortions aren't performed at the Addison-based company's facilities.
"A clinic is much less," Miller said. "I just bought the Fort Worth clinic last year for $398,000. It is 4,000 square feet and in the same city, two miles apart, from where Planned Parenthood just built their surgical center for $7.5 million."
In 2004, when Texas required abortions past 16 weeks be performed in surgical centers, none of the clinics could comply. Now, six facilities around San Antonio, Dallas and Houston meet the standard.
Fewer than 2 percent of the 72,470 Texas women who had abortions in 2011 were pregnant for more than 16 weeks, according to the most recent data available from the state Department of Health and Human Services.

Applied Policy Seminar
Overview | Impact | Guidelines & Timeline | Proposal Form
Put the skills of Ford School student consulting teams to work solving your organization's public policy challenges through the Applied Policy Seminar.
The Ford School offers a Master of Public Policy (MPP) degree designed to prepare students for careers in policy analysis and public management. As part of a rigorous curriculum, students in the MPP program gain hands on experience through Applied Policy Seminars (APS) and other practicum courses.
The Ford School's Applied Policy Seminar is a semester-long Master's level course (PP578) that engages students in a supervised consulting project with a real-world client. Teams of 3-6 students work with a faculty coordinator and client representative to develop a project work plan, collect relevant materials and information, conduct research and analysis, prepare a written report, and present findings and recommendations to the client.
Students are expected to produce professional-quality work at minimal cost to the client. In return, clients are asked to provide students with a valuable, engaging educational and professional experience.
Browse these pages to learn more about our APS clients, the impact our students have had on those clients, and how your policy organization can partner with the Ford School to put our well-trained graduate students to work for you.

This was our second cruise on the Magic out of Galveston, with our first one being in March that did the Bahamas and Key West. We got off our second Magic cruise on Sept 8, 2013 and loved it. Our ports of call were Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. We had flown to 2 of the ports before so we were familiar with the islands. Very easy getting to the terminal to board the ship. My mom is platinum and we got to breeze thru boarding with them since she had booked the cruise. We were on the ship before noon and went and had lunch at the Italian Restaurant (it was pick your pasta and what you wanted in it and it was wonderful and FREE for lunch). After eating our luggage was in our rooms so we quickly unpacked and got ready to set sail. We booked our balcony room on the lido deck port side and asked for the divider be opened between our rooms. This did take several hours to get accomplished this time unlike our cruise in March in which our cabin steward did for us as soon as we requested. Dolphins were swimming and showed us the way out of the gulf.
We had late dining in the Northern Lights and loved our head waiter Smith and his assistants. WONDERFUL FOOD and of course they all had our preferences and names down by the first night. If you wanted to try a new food they would encourage it and would bring us something different if we did not like it. Our room was always clean whenever we returned to it. Don't know how they kept up with it because we never saw them but a couple of times. Great Service, great food and wonderful ports! We were off the ship by 8 am with no difficulties.

---- — PLATTSBURGH — In search of two wins this weekend to quality for the SUNY Athletic Conference Tournament, the Plattsburgh State women' soccer team needed to find some offense Friday afternoon.
It didn't happen, however.
Chelsea Stahl scored the lone goal of the game as The College at Brockport defeated the Cardinals, 1-0, at the Field House Soccer Complex, ending Plattsburgh's hopes of going to the tournament.
Plattsburgh (4-10-2, 2-5-1) outshot Brockport, 8-5, in the first half, but its shots were limited to those from outside.
The Golden Eagles (9-4-1, 4-3-1) took advantage of a Plattsburgh defensive breakdown to score the game-winning goal at the 20:44 mark.
A Brockport free kick was deflected from Annie Terilli to Chelsea Stahl, who found the net low on the near side for his team-leading eighth goal of the season.
The Cardinals had some chances in the second half as well, but were unable to get free in close.
Plattsburgh finished with a 14-10 advantage in shots and a 5-2 edge in corner kicks. Laura Thompson recorded the shutout with nine saves and Kristy Kirkpatrick was in net for the Cardinals with seven saves.
It was another frustrating day in the conference for the Cardinals. Four of their five losses in the conference have been one-goal games
Plattsburgh closes out its conference schedule today, hosting Geneseo at 1 p.m. on Senior Day.
The College at Brockport 1, Plattsburgh State 0
The College at Brockport 1 0 — 1
Plattsburgh State 0 0 — 0
First half- 1, Brock, Stahl (Terilli), 20:44.
Shots: Plattsburgh State 14, The College at Brockport 10.
Saves: Thompson, Brock, 9. Kirkpatrick, PSU, 7.

BATON ROUGE - Herman Wallace, a member of the Angola 3 who'd just been released from prison, passed away in his sleep overnight according to Amnesty International and his attorney.
The 71-year-old had been transported to a hospice center after a federal judge overturned his 1974 conviction for killing a prison guard and ordered a new trial.
Wallace had been diagnosed with cancer while still in prison, and was dying of liver failure when he was released.
Wallace was serving an armed robbery sentence when Angola guard Brent Miller was fatally stabbed in 1972. Wallace and two others - known as the Angola 3 - were convicted in Miller's death and moved to isolation at Angola, where Wallace spent 41 years in solitary confinement. He was later moved to Hunt Correctional Facility due to his health.
On Thursday, a grand jury in West Feliciana Parish indicted Wallace again for the guard's murder.
La prisoner freed after 41 years of solitary
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A 71-year-old Louisiana prisoner who spent 41 years in solitary confinement and is now dying of cancer was released late Tuesday from prison, his attorneys said.
Late Tuesday, U.S. District Chief Judge Brian Jackson in Baton Rouge denied the state's motion seeking to block his earlier order overturning Herman Wallace's 1974 murder conviction in the death of Angola guard Brent Miller.
Jackson had also ordered a new trial because women were unconstitutionally excluded from the grand jury that indicted Wallace in the guard's death. And, he ordered him immediately released.
Wallace's attorneys said the freed prisoner left a correctional center in St. Gabriel by ambulance Tuesday evening and was expected to go to LSU Interim Hospital in New Orleans for treatment of advanced terminal liver cancer.
"Tonight, Herman Wallace has left the walls of Louisiana prisons and will be able to receive the medical care that his advanced liver cancer requires," his legal team said in a statement.
Earlier Tuesday, Jackson overturned Wallace's 1974 murder conviction in Miller's death.
"The record in this case makes clear that Mr. Wallace's grand jury was improperly chosen in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment's guarantee of 'the equal protection of the laws' ... and that the Louisiana courts, when presented with the opportunity to correct this error, failed to do so," Jackson wrote.
He added, "Our Constitution requires this result even where, as here, it means overturning Mr. Wallace's conviction nearly forty years after it was entered."
George Kendall, one of Wallace's attorneys, told The Associated Press in an earlier telephone interview the decision gives his client "some measure of justice after a lifetime of injustice," but his response was tempered by the grim outlook for Wallace's health.
"He's pleased," Kendall said of Wallace's reaction after hearing of Tuesday's ruling, "but he's quite ill."
Wallace, whose birthday is Oct. 13, has been diagnosed with terminal liver cancer. Kendall said he "ceased receiving treatment a couple of weeks ago."
Kendall said the state had filed notice it would appeal Jackson's ruling. A telephone message left with East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney Hillar C. Moore III's office was not immediately returned. The state Department of Public Safety and Corrections referred all questions to Moore's office.
Wallace and two other inmates convicted in the 23-year-old guard's slaying came to be known as the "Angola 3."
Wallace, of New Orleans, was serving a 50-year armed robbery sentence when Miller was fatally stabbed in 1972. Wallace and the two others convicted in Miller's death were moved to isolation at the Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola. In 2009, Wallace was moved to "closed-cell restriction" at Hunt Correctional in St. Gabriel and recently was taken to the prison's hospital unit.
Kendall said his client has asked that, after his demise, they continue to press the lawsuit challenging Wallace's "unconstitutional confinement in solitary confinement for four decades."
"It is Mr. Wallace's hope that this litigation will help ensure that others, including his lifelong friend and fellow 'Angola 3' member, Albert Woodfox, do not continue to suffer such cruel and unusual confinement even after Mr. Wallace is gone," his legal team said in a written statement.
Kendall said Woodfox won full habeas relief last year but the state has appealed that as well. The case is pending before the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
In 2010, Woodfox was moved to the David Wade Correctional Center in Homer, where he remains in custody.
Woodfox and Wallace have continued to deny involvement in Miller's killing and say they were targeted because they helped establish a prison chapter of the Black Panther Party at the Angola prison in 1971, set up demonstrations and organized strikes for better conditions in the prison.
Amnesty International USA last year delivered a petition to Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal's office, containing 65,000 signatures from people around the world who called the men's solitary confinement inhuman and degrading.
The group's executive director, Steven W. Hawkins, welcomed the court's ruling involving Wallace. "Tragically, this step toward justice has come as Herman is dying from cancer with only days or hours left to live," he said in a statement. "No ruling can erase the cruel, inhuman and degrading prison conditions he endured for more than 41 years."
The third man, Robert King, was released after 29 years in solitary confinement. King, convicted of killing a fellow inmate in 1973, was released in 2001 after his conviction was reversed and he pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of conspiracy to commit murder.

My laboratory has focused on understanding growth and differentiation events in renal cells that are modulated by heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide binding (G) proteins.

We have determined that one G protein isoform, Gia-2 is critical to these processes and is encoded by a protooncogene. We have isolated and characterized this gene and a related isoform Gia-3 in renal cells and determined they are members of a very ancient supergene family with comparable homologues in more primitive eukaryotic cells. We have demonstrated there is a profound upregulation of the Gia-2 gene during growth and differentiation of LLC-PK1 renal cells that modulates a mitogenic cascade linked to downstream activation of p42/44 44 mitogen activated protein kinase. We have since expanded the scope of these studies to other cell types including pneumocytes. Gia-2 activation of this mitogenic cascase triggers the translocation of an early growth response gene product (EGR-1) to the nucleus allowing it to bind a cognate cis site in the 5' flank of the Gia-2 with resultant gene transactivation. Following differentiation, EGR-1 expression is extinguished and the site is occupied by a smaller molecular weight species, the Wilms' tumor suppressor which prevents further Gia-2 gene transactivation. Utilizing the LLC-PK1 cell as a unique renal model of WT1 function, we have since demonstrated that WT1 cis-binding as well as its transcription activities are critically dependent on an accessory protein first determined to play a role in prostatic apoptosis (Par-4).
In differentiated LLC-PKl cells, we have demonstrated the Gia-2 gene can be dynamically-regulated at other cis sites by different transcription factors. Among these are glucocorticoids which repress even basal activity of this gene. Alternatively, we have demonstrated cAMP can induce a "CAAT" box transcription factor which robustly transactivates the gene. This finding also provides solid evidence for an existing feedback loop mechanism to downregulate adenylyl cyclase activity in this cell type by increased production of Gia-2 peptide which is inhibitory for adenylyl cyclase. Utilizing yeast two-hybrid screening, we have recently identified novel and known effectors of Gia-2 action among these are tubulins and RGS family members which are known to modulate the activity of Gia-2 proteins as well as scaffold protein which can also function as a receptor for activated protein kinase C. We are currently examining which hormones influence these mitogenic cascades and have recently determined that Hepatocyte Growth Factor may play a key role in Gia-2 dependent differentiation processes in renal cells. In related studies utilizing the deduced crystal structure of the Gia-1, we have identified the residues in both Gqa and Gia-2 which are critical for the targeting of these molecules to differing membrane domains in polarized renal cells. We believe our ongoing structural and functional studies of the regulation of the Gia-2 gene and its product will continue to provide novel insights into renal development and physiology.

Select Route:
This beautiful line forms up only in the best of years. Moderate climbing leads to the base of the ice streak on the upper wall. The upper half of the route is very steep and sustained, and on the FA brittle as well (temp well below zero F).
The route lies between Icebreakers to the right and Icebreakers Arete to the left. Access is from Domtar 81 road. Park below the route and head straight for it. As you get through the new-growth pines and enter the forest, watch for flagging tape marking the trail to the Icebreakers area. About 45 minutes to an hour.
Ice screws for pro, belay from trees at the top.
