No. KOL / RMS / /145 / 2010-12 Bhopal Gas Tragedy Protest Day Ranchi SUCI(C) severely condemns Zionist Israeli attack on Palestine aid flotilla and calls upon world people to rise up in protest Comrade Provash Ghosh, General Secretary, SUCI (Communist) in course of a statement issued on 3 June, 2010 said that the imperialist superpower-backed Zionist Israeli regime which just a year back carried out a murderous assault on the Palestine freedom fighters of Gaza strip struggling for realizing their just demand for a sovereign Palestine state with its capital in Jerusalem, virtually slaughtered them with beastly savagery has once again, violating all international laws, committed a most criminal act by attacking in international waters a flotilla of boats carrying humanitarian aid to the beleaguered people of Gaza suffering from acute shortage of food, water, fuel, medicine and other essential items owing to the illegal blockade imposed by the Israeli rulers since 2007. Comrade Provash Ghosh severely condemned this ghastly act in which at least nine of the unarmed peace activists have been killed and several others have received grievous injuries due to merciless beating and application of electric shocks. The extremely mild manner in which the US imperialists have reacted to such a savage act in flagrant violation of all international rules and norms only vindicates the feeling of the right thinking people round the world that but for direct backing of the Pentagon regime, the Zionist Israeli rulers could have never dared to launch such brutal offensives one after another. The President of the European Parliament has also ended his responsibility by issuing a meek protest reaffirming connivance and indulgence of the imperialist superpowers in the barbaric acts of Israeli rulers. Instead of coming out with strong condemnation of this Israeli atrocity let alone taking any punitive measure against the perpetrators of such a heinous crime, the casual manner in which the UN Security Council has ordered for a simple investigation of the incident has been shocking. It only lends credence to the apprehension of the right thinking people that UNO has virtually become a rubber stamp of the US imperialists and their allies, observed Comrade Provash Ghosh. Comrade Provash Ghosh has called upon all the peace loving democratic minded people of the world to rise in protest and build up powerful anti-imperialist movement throughout the world against such sinister gunboat diplomacy of the imperialist superpowers and their pliant regimes and in support of the legitimate struggle of the Palestinian people.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Rut-scraping delay tied to budget? Nah...
ARE YOU READY FOR ANOTHER SNOW JOB?... Winnipeg is a place used to getting snow jobs from city hall. Lately, though, the issue is the snow-plowing jobs we haven't been getting.
On New Year's Eve, navigating the dangerously rutted and icy roads left some drivers feeling as if they were on luge runs, not regional or even major streets. That was supposed to start changing as of 7 p.m. Wednesday with city crews scheduled to scrape the main arteries.
For the time being, that leaves us to manage rutted residential streets at our own risk.
Which brings us to those most impacted by the slippery conditions -- the busy folks at Manitoba Public Insurance who have to handle collision claims.
According to one report, MPI was expecting to deal with 17,000 claims from accidents last month. That, if you care to compare, is up 1,500 claims from December 2012 and way up by more than 5,000 claims from December 2011.
That's not counting the damaged suspensions on vehicles from lumpy and bumpy winter streets that even make spring pothole season preferable.
If you're looking for someone to blame for the road conditions -- other than the weatherman -- take your pick from the mayor to the public works director. Or you could even go after the attitude of Transcona Coun. Russ Wyatt, which some did last month when he questioned the need for what he called Winnipeg's "Cadillac" model of plowing and clearing the driveways of residential streets.
City officials may all tell you budget considerations had nothing to do with the roads being left unplowed long enough to create the unnervingly slippery-slidey conditions, but that sounds like one of those city hall snow jobs aimed at not denting the snow-clearing budget.
In early December, after Winnipeg's first significant snowfall, the city took five days to think about and finally undertake a $4-million residential street clearing. That followed a $2-million rollout of 300 pieces of equipment to clear main streets and collector routes.
The city blamed the delay on a forecast of more snow down the road, even as that road was becoming a driving problem.
Meanwhile, back on Dec. 10, Wyatt, who as finance chairman is supposed to mind the city's money, didn't see the hurry to plow residential streets.
"We must all slow down a bit when driving," Wyatt said. "We live in Winnipeg -- not Waco, Texas."
Wyatt had more to say back in that second week of December. He warned a residential plowing at that time would exhaust city's 2013 snow- clearing budget, and he was concerned another snowstorm in December would send Winnipeg's overall annual budget into the ditch and deficit.
"I think we should have waited," Wyatt said back then.
At the time, Winnipeg's chief financial officer Mike Ruta echoed Wyatt's concern, but put numbers to it. At the end of October, the city's budget was $3.7 million in the red, although Ruta expected department heads would find enough savings to balance the budget by the end of the year.
Ruta also said he believed the only factor that could undermine the budget is another snowstorm. And, of course, the cost of the snow clearing that came with it. Well, that snow arrived and here we are in the new year, finally getting plowed.
But, of course, balancing last year's budget had nothing to do with the four-day delay. Actually, it shouldn't have because all the city has to do to make the snow-clearing budget work is use the fiscal-stabilization reserve to cover the cost. I trust that clears everything up.
And hopefully all the rutted, icy streets.
Oh, one other thing. Here's a quote you might find refreshing. It's from a civic official who understands citizens are frustrated with snow- clearing efforts and who wants their feedback.
"We really want people to give us their thoughts and opinions on our current level of service," he said.
Trouble is the "he" quoted is Brian Anthony, director of public works for the Greater Toronto Area city of Vaughn, population nearly 300,000.
Not, alas, Winnipeg.

GOODBYE TO 2013, GOODBYE MORRIS. . . Thea Morris has left the building. She made the announcement on her Facebook page, as she originally predicted late last November after claiming she had been the target of racism: "Thea's Diner is now Officially Closed in Morris, MB.", her page read.
She thanked her supporters, including some in the town of 1,800. Who knows, maybe Thea will reopen in Winnipeg, where there are more people who appreciate different kinds of food.
And different kinds of people.

Scary prospects: Who might run HP next
If HP's board fires Léo Apotheker as rumored, one of the following candidates may turn out to be the new CEO
Charles Montgomery ("Mr.") Burns
Say what you want about his ethics, this guy gets things done.
Pros: He's kept the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant profitable for decades despite gross worker incompetence, a bank repossession, and an ill-conceived sale to German investors. He values business success more than anything, including family, friendship, and religion. He's skilled at the media game, once spinning a nuclear meltdown as an "unrequested fission surplus."
Cons: His advanced age has rendered him not dependably lucid, and he was diagnosed by the Mayo Clinic with Three Stooges Syndrome, meaning he has every ailment known to man, including juvenile diabetes and hysterical pregnancy. He has a decidedly laissez-faire attitude toward business regulations and is known to have dabbled in bioterrorism. He's a member of The League of Evil. The commute from Springield would reduce his impact in Palo Alto. He's not a real person.

Crozet Pizza is supposedly supposed to be legendary. Everyone in Charlottesville seems to love this pizza. I have to say it was average - nothing too super special about it. They have basic crust, basic sauce and basic toppings. If you want average pizza this place is great. If ambiance is what you desire in a pizza joint, aim low for Crozet Pizza. The location is merely a shack and it appears as though it needs a thorough dusting. Charlotte from Charlotte's Web still resides above the warm ovens...which is comforting when you're eating. The "charm" the place offers did not please me, but perhaps fifty-year old, faded photos of fans in random locations around the globe will appeal to you.
If you want to eat average pizza in a dirty shack hit up Crozet Pizza!

Subject: Re: [TMG] TMG 5.04 question: Changing sentence structure
Date: Sun, 24 Nov 2002 16:19:32 -0500

Hello Ed,
First, please be sure to change your email program settings, as I almost
sent this email directly to you instead of to the entire list. It has
something to do with "reply to" settings.
Regarding your question, as far as I know, when you change the default
sentence structure for a tag, for instance your default marriage tag
sentence in the tag type definition screen, then all existing marriage tags
will get that new structure, with one BIG exception.
If for a particular person's tag, for example, the tag for John Smith's
marriage to June Merritt, you had already modified the sentence in the tag
entry screen, then what you've done in essence is to create a special,
custom sentence applicable only to the Smith-Merritt marriage tag. TMG will
presume this is intentional (not that a computer can presume, but you get my
drift), and TMG will not override this special, custom Smith-Merritt
sentence when you later change the default marriage tag's sentence
structure. Like you said, there are good reasons for this.
But now you want your Smith-Merritt tag to get the default structure. The
only way to do this that I know of, is to go to the Tag Entry screen for
this particular marriage, and then delete the entire contents of the
sentence. After you do this, then the Smith-Merritt marriage goes back to
whatever the default sentence structure is.
If there's another way to do this, perhaps someone else can chime in, as I'd
love to know.
Hope this is helpful,
James Colgate

I'd like to develop a tracking system using an API of course (like the famous Orange API). the idea is simple:
- I send a SMS (from my Web interface) to the person i want to track
- The person's mobile terminal (GPS like this) send me back automatically the coordinates by SMS.
- The sent information are displayed on the user's web interface.
The questions are simple:
- How the terminal can send automatically the response?
- How to indicate in the message that the information is for "user4655"?
- How to make connection between the information and the database?
