Parliament was briefly suspended in Ukraine on Tuesday, March 19 after fists flew in a row over Russian between the president's party and a far-right opposition faction, threatening to extend a legislative stalemate.
Opposition parties Svoboda, Batkivshchyna (Fatherland) and UDAR (Punch) have blocked proceedings in the 450-member chamber since parliament reopened after a winter break in early February, allowing only one brief session to take place.
In the first session since Feb. 22 Olexander Yefremov, the parliamentary leader of President Viktor Yanukovich's Party of the Regions, labelled deputies from Svoboda as "neo-fascists" after they booed a speech he made in Russian.
The speaker's rostrum was then besieged by lawmakers from both Svoboda and the Regions, sparking a brief fistfight that prompted Speaker Volodymyr Rybak to suspend the session.
The chamber reopened a few hours later after the opposing factions agreed to stop blocking the rostrum.
The use of the Russian language is a contentious issue in Ukraine, where millions consider it their mother tongue while many others see its use as an insult to national pride.
Fistfights have become relatively common occurrence in parliament since the October 2012 election, which gave Svoboda representation and weakened the Regions, though they still command a majority together with traditional communist allies.
Ukraine has been in legislative limbo since early February due the blockade by the opposition, which protested first against what it called proxy voting by the Regions - MPs voting with cards belonging to absent colleagues - and then against a move to strip an opposition deputy of his mandate.
The blockade was lifted on Tuesday to discuss the resolution of the second issue and, possibly, call a mayoral election in the capital Kiev.
Parliament's closure has not affected the government's day-to-day activities, but the cabinet has said the absence of a legislature is hindering the closure of landmark deals on free trade and political association with the European Union.
The Party of the Regions is favoured by Russian-speaking Ukrainians in the east and south of the country while Svoboda has its power base in western Ukraine, where Ukrainian dominates.

THE show must go on.
There was proof of that old adage as the Marburg Show held most of the scheduled events despite the terrible weather on the weekend.
Marburg Show committee chief ring steward Don West said the gates were thrown open at lunch time, despite the driving rain and cool conditions, to entice people to the showgrounds, with many of the ring events still going ahead.
"The weather was a great disappointment for us all after all the hard work the committee put in," Mr West said.
Every cloud proved to have a silver lining, with the cattle events still running along with undercover entertainment, the jet truck and the ever-popular ute muster.
"Despite the weather we ended up having a reasonably successful event," Mr West said.

Bank of England goes softer on interest rates
Saturday 26 August 1995
Economics Editor
The Bank of England is letting it be known that it is preparing to withdraw its demand for higher interest rates.
Analysts from leading players in the gilts market who met Bank officials on Tuesday afternoon formed the distinct impression that the Bank was looking for a way out of its increasingly isolated position on the need for higher rates.
"They were acknowledging that the last two weeks' batch of statistics, coming on top of earlier figures that had gone the Chancellor's way, simply made it inappropriate to raise rates whatever the inflation forecast projected," said one analyst who attended the meeting, which was chaired by John Townend.
One clue to the Bank's change of heart was that officials said that they hoped analysts had taken on board the fact that the August inflation report was much less hawkish on the inflationary threat than the May report.
They also made clear that the August report would itself have been adapted to take into account more recent figures indicating a weakening economy.
Another clear indication of a revision of thinking at the Bank was that on more than one occasion, officials used the word "recession".
Indeed they acknowledged that the manufacturing sector would be in recession were it not for the contribution of net trade.
Eddie George's difficulty in changing his line when he next meets Kenneth Clarke on 7 September is that the Bank's most recent forecast still shows underlying inflation - the annual change in the retail price index excluding mortgage interest payments - rising above the target level of 2.5 per cent in two years' time.
However, one way in which the Governor might remove himself from the hook on which he is impaled would be to stress the more favourable projection for the Bank's favoured measure of inflation. This additionally excludes the effect of changes in indirect taxes and conveniently is projected to peak somewhat lower than underlying inflation.
Kenneth Clarke may no longer have to face down Mr George on interest rates. But the latest figures on government borrowing under the Maastricht Treaty definitions underlined the problem he faces in preparing the November Budget.
These showed how far off the Government remains from meeting the conditions for participating in monetary union.
The Government ran a financial deficit of 6.1 per cent of GDP in the last fiscal year. The Maastricht Treaty sets the objective of 3 per cent or less as a condition for participating in monetary union.
In its summer economic forecast, the Treasury said that the financial deficit would fall to 2.75 per cent by 1996/7. However, very little progress has been made so far in reducing the budget deficit compared with last year and significant tax cuts will make it even more difficult for the Government to comply with the objective. The Treasury is keen for Britain to do this in order to improve our negotiating position on monetary union.

Terrorism and the Law of Supply and Demand
Interview With Massimo Introvigne, Sociologist of Religion
TURIN, Italy, JAN. 21, 2005 (Zenit) - The terrorist who immolates himself does not see his act as suicide but rather as a meritorious act, contends an expert on religions.
"Terrorist organizations do not carry out attacks just because they like to or because they are moved by an apocalyptic will to destroy," says Massimo Introvigne, founder and director of the Center of Studies on New Religions. "They operate as 'industries' of terrorism according to the normal cost-profit business logic."
With Lawrence Iannaccone, Introvigne is author of "Il Mercato dei Martiri. L'Industria del Terrorismo Suicida" (The Martyrs' Market: The Industry of Suicide Terrorism), published in Italy by Lindau.
In this interview with us, Introvigne focused on the book, which analyzes the phenomenon of suicide terrorism from the viewpoint of the so-called religious economy, namely, a market in which supply and demand come into play.
Q: Is a terrorist, therefore, not a martyr?
Introvigne: "Martyres non facit poena sed causa," the Fathers of the Church said. They are martyrs not because of the way they die, but because of the cause for which they die.
Given that, as the magisterium of the Church teaches, and as the solemn declarations of the United Nations confirm -- endorsed by almost all the countries of the world -- terrorism is always an illicit means -- regardless of the terrorist's objective. It is an evil cause and those who serve it are not martyrs.
Even from the Muslim point of view, it is, in fact, very doubtful if the suicide terrorist has the right to the title "shahid," martyr.
In "The Martyrs' Market" we have published as an appendix a "fatwa," religious edict, of Saudi circles close to Osama bin Laden, which tries to show that it is martyrdom. But in the book we have emphasized that, to come to this conclusion, one must force the sources of the Koran and the Sunna.
Q: Why do they commit suicide?
Introvigne: Although objectively, for the reasons I have just explained, suicide terrorism is not martyrdom, subjectively, it is so for the terrorist.
What is more, interviewing years ago exponents of Hamas in the West Bank, I noted that their main concern was to be really sure that what they proposed to do was not suicide, as it is a gesture that is prohibited by Islam and would send them to hell.
Their leaders encourage them with theological arguments that convince them, even if they are doubtful and derived from originally Shiite sources and translated, not without difficulty, to the Sunni doctrinal environment.
So the "martyr," who is not so for us, really thinks that he is carrying out a meritorious act from the religious point of view.
Q: If poverty and despair are not the causes that lead terrorists to immolate themselves, what moves them?
Introvigne: In the book we say that explanations based on poverty and socioeconomic despair make no sense: Many suicide terrorists are well-off.
Of course, one can speak of "cultural despair," but it is such a vague category that it explains everything and nothing.
Others speak of "brainwashing" and mental manipulation, categories that in general I don't share, as I explain in my book "Brainwashing, Myth or Reality?" which is difficult to apply to someone like Mohammed Atta, the head of the September 11, 2001, commando, a university student, with an honor's degree from Hamburg, who never lived in a training camp or in a Muslim fundamentalist environment. Was he brainwashed only with Friday sermons in the mosque?
Iannaccone and I are convinced that all these "explanations" are the result of an anti-religious prejudice and of political or psychological reductionism by which phenomena that appear as religious cannot have religious causes. According to this view, religion, as Marx said, is only a "superstructure" of the real structure, which is economic for Marx himself, and psychological for Freud.
Of course, no phenomenon should be reduced to a sole cause, and to pretend that the motivations of the suicide terrorist are only religious would also be a caricature. But religion plays a big role.
Q: Is there an "industry of suicide terrorism," as you indicate?
Introvigne: Yes. We distinguish between the motivations of individuals, of which I have spoken, and the motivations of organizations.
In many cultures there are people for whom the way of interpreting religion -- Islam in particular -- predisposes them to acts of violence including suicide terrorism. But there are not "businesses" [and] "industries" everywhere, which respond to a possible desire, offering recruitment and the possibility to become authentic terrorists. ...

Deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences. I always loved this poem and this may be the time to post it here.
Sympathy by Emily Bronte
There should be no despair for you
While nightly stars are burning;
While evening pours its silent dew,
And sunshine gilds the morning.
There should be no despair--though tears
May flow down like a river:
Are not the best beloved of years
Around your heart for ever?
They weep, you weep, it must be so;
Winds sigh as you are sighing,
And winter sheds its grief in snow
Where Autumn's leaves are lying:
Yet, these revive, and from their fate
Your fate cannot be parted:
Then, journey on, if not elate,
Still, NEVER broken-hearted.

NY Shooting Killed FBI Tactical TeamKurt Myers, New York, NY Shooting, Shooting
NY shooting suspect, Kurt R. Myers, was shot and killed by authorities on Thursday after he got into a shoot out with an FBI tactical team.
Myers, 64, is suspecting of killing 4 people and wounding 2 other on Wednesday in Herkimer County, New York.
The shootings appear to be "unprovoked and random," a police official said.
Early-on Thursday, the FBI tactical team made their way into an abandoned tavern in Herkimer, New York, where the suspect was believed to be hiding out. An FBI dog died in the shootout, but no officers were injured, police added.
Myers' death left many questions unanswered, including why the apparent loner with no significant criminal record shot six people, killing four and leaving the other two in critical condition, State Police Superintendent Joseph D'Amico told reporters.
"We think they were unprovoked and random," he said of the attacks.
The FBI tactical team, led by a police dog, moved on Myers shortly before 8 a.m. Thursday, D'Amico said. Myers first fired on them through the closed door, then again into the doorway as agents stormed the room, he added. "As unfortunate as it was that the canine lost his life, it could just as easily have been an officer," D'Amico said.

Credit cardholders change repayment habits
Saturday 22 May 2004
New industry figures suggest that there has been a dramatic change in the way British people use credit cards and, contrary to widespread belief, they are no longer running up huge debts on plastic.
New industry figures suggest that there has been a dramatic change in the way British people use credit cards and, contrary to widespread belief, they are no longer running up huge debts on plastic.
Latest data from the Association for Payment Clearing Services (Apacs), which is owned by all the major banks, shows that 77 per cent of credit-card spending last year was incurred by people who always repaid in full in the next billing period, and a further 8 per cent was incurred by those who usually repaid in full. Another 12 per cent was incurred by "revolvers", who carry a balance forward on at least one of their cards but who pay more than the minimum. Only 3 per cent of spending in 2003 was by people who made the minimum repayment in any one month.
Sandra Quinn, Apacs director of corporate communications, said: "The analysis of 2003 spending and repayment patterns shows that the overwhelming majority of credit-card customers always or regularly repay in full. Only a minority, representing a relatively low amount of spending, make the minimum repayment in any one month. This is an ever-changing group."
In a typical billing cycle 54 per cent of credit-card holders by number always repaid in full, 11 per cent usually paid in full and only 12 per cent made the minimum payment. The remaining 23 per cent consisted of cardholders who carried a balance forward but made more than the minimum repayments.
This is in vivid contrast to the rule of thumb of credit-card spending, which has long perpetuated the belief that a third pay in full in each month, a third pay off part of their debt and a third pay the minimum.
The data came from the 2003 Consumer Payments Survey, which polls consumer spending and payment behaviour throughout the year. A representative sample of 4,000 people was surveyed by market research firm Ipsos UK during 2003, the first year in which credit-card repayment patterns were monitored.
The figures for those who pay the minimum include people who take advantage of introductory offers on cards, such as zero per cent interest rates for balance transfers, where no interest is payable if only minimum repayments are made for the life of the offer.

In the fourth quarter of Game 1, Dirk Nowitzki made a clean strip of Chris Bosh as he was driving toward the basket, but he got called for the makeup foul after a bad whistle on the other end. To add to the problems, Nowitzki tore a tendon in his left index finger on the…
NBA Playoffs: Dallas shooters go cold… or was it the Heat?
Jun 1, 2011, 1:34 AM EST
It will be the "chicken or the egg" question out of Game 1, and we will not really know the answer until we are well along in this series. Did the Dallas Mavericks just miss shots, or did the Miami Heat make them miss? Because the key Dallas shooters were shooting like they played for…
NBA Playoffs: Heat move ball, make shots, play defense, draw first blood
Jun 1, 2011, 1:15 AM EST
Coming into the NBA Finals, everyone was expecting a battle between Dallas' smooth, sweet-shooting, ball-movement heavy offense and Miami's aggressive, swarming, athletic, grinding defense. Not only did the low-scoring game go the way the Heat wanted it to, but the Heat flipped the script on the Mavericks and beat them in the areas Dallas was…

Ernest Watford saw the way his son, Christian, has been wooed by major college basketball programs all summer.
Ernest was there at Indiana's elite camp in late August to hear the Hoosiers' coaching gush about how much his son, a smooth 6-foot-7 wing, would bring to the program. He had the chance to talk to Isaih Thomas and D.J. White "at length about all things Indiana basketball.â€
Yet Ernest was not convinced that Indiana and its new coach would be right for his son.
So he called around.
"I won't say who,†he said on Monday. "Just people who knew coach Crean before he was at Indiana. Parents who dealt with him, some other coaches. People who'd know.â€
"Nothing but positive,†he said. "He's a man of integrity and honor. And he's going to have faith in Christian's ability. He's going to let him play, he's going to give him room.â€
With that, Ernest was convinced.
Later Tuesday, Crean will get a chance to convince Christian just how coveted he is.
College basketball coaches can return to the recruiting trail Tuesday, and Crean, direct as always, will not stray from trying to lure one of the players who has been at the top of his list.
Crean is expected to visit Shades Valley Technical Academy in Birmingham, Ala. in the afternoon to see Watford work out there.
Later, the Watfords will gather — probably at the dinner table — to discuss Christian's recruiting.
"We've never really put a schedule on the process,†Ernest Watford said. "We just take it as it goes and talk about it every night. We're just trying to figure what's best for Christian.â€
Ernest does have one reservation with Indiana.
"I'm kind of leery about what the NCAA is going to do,†he said. "But I don't think anyone knows what will happen there.â€
IU owes the NCAA committee on infractions a response to the "failure to monitor†charge levied against its athletic department by Sept. 17. The committee is expected to then rule on the case against Indiana basketball, which includes a total of five major violations, in four to six weeks.
A Watford commitment would give Indiana's class of 2009 — which Rivals.com ranks the ninth-best in the country — a fifth player and its first versatile, bonafide scorer at the Division I level.
"They talked about him being really a next level guy,†Ernest said about Indiana's coaching staff. "With his length and athleticism he's a constant match-up problem and they think he can score.â€
Ernest Watford put no time-line on when his son would announce a decision but called Indiana "a high possibility†and "indisputably, hands-down one of the top three programs of all time.â€

Sen. Landrieu introduces adoption documentary
U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu is promoting a documentary about international adoption.
The Louisiana Democrat is the mother of two adopted children and the wife of a man adopted from overseas. She says many American families are willing to open their hearts and homes to children needing families all over the world, but the international adoption system "is broken and failing."
Landrieu introduced the film titled "Stuck" in the New Orleans suburb of Harahan on Monday night. She says it's about overseas children who are "stuck in orphanages, stuck in a system that doesn't work."
The film is narrated by Emmy and Golden Globe winning actress Mariska Hargitay and produced by Craig Juntunen. It's on a 60-city tour that began last month and is scheduled to wrap mid-May.

My wife and I stayed in the #9 cabin which is underneath one of the ocean front cabins. We decided on it as it was close to the ocean and seemed cozy.
