On Monday, November 24, a grand jury refused to indict white police officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of Michael Brown, a young black man, on August 9. The response, nationwide, reflects our deep unease, even dis-ease, over the social concept of race in America. What is the extent of institutional racism in America? What is the path to justice and healing?

Worship Associate: Sarah Lown

For our multigenerational Thanksgiving service, we will explore what might be surprising "secrets" about gratitude, about saying thanks. We'll follow this with a communion of bread and fruit, before we retire downstairs for our traditional UUYO Thanksgiving Dinner.
Worship Leader: Rev. Matt Alspaugh
Worship Associate: Kristina Spaude

This Wordle provides a quick summary of what people said in our "Deep Conversations" on November 2. In the Deep Conversations, we used the techniques from Open Space Technology to raise up areas of interest, and then discuss these in groups. The groups made notes, which were used for this Wordle.
A Wordle shows the words that people used. The bigger words are words used most often.
Where do we go from here? We'll seek to reconvene the groups (plus anyone else that is interested) at the Adult Forum time, Sunday mornings 9:30 – 11 AM. Out of these, we hope specific teams will emerge to work on the topics of interest.
11 AM Sanctuary
We Unitarian Universalists pride ourselves in being a Welcoming Congregation. We welcome all people – no matter your size, shape, color, sexual orientation. But what about the guy next door? What about the people with whom we disagree? We will explore what tolerance means to us.
Worship Leader: BeckyAnn Harker
Worship Associate: Andy Pfrenger
Musician: Nanette Kaplan Solomon
This Wordle provides a quick summary of what people said in our "Fast Conversations" on October 18 and 26. In the Fast Conversations, participants briefly answered the questions: What brought you to UUYO? What keeps you here? What would make UUYO even better?
A Wordle shows the words that people used. The bigger words are words used most often. Clearly, the people and community stand out as most important, but areas like music and social justice and RE emerge, too.
The Fast Conversations fed the Deep Conversations held on November 2.
The listing of items from the Fast Conversations is here.
11 AM Sanctuary
A spiritual journey is like a treasure hunt. Your explorations reveal the treasure of Enlightenment. Your Practice is what gets you there. Developing a Spiritual Practice allows us to connect deeply with our passion and expand our own Sacred Possibilities. So, if you are ready to learn more of the mysteries, join us as we go treasure hunting!

During our annual Stewardship Campaign, members and friends of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Youngstown agree to support the church with their financial pledges for 2015. These pledges provide over 80% of the money needed to operate the church.
Dear Friends,
We are grateful for your support!
The First Unitarian Universalist Church of Youngstown is unique in our area as a community that welcomes and includes people with a wide variety of spiritual and religious orientations. In a time of increasing religious intolerance, UUYO remains a beacon of liberal religion in the Mahoning Valley. We strive to become the joyful community, spiritually engaged, changing the world.
Our Progress in 2014
We have continued to improve our Worship with a worship design process, more sermon formats, trained worship associates, more music variety, art and video. We have fully implemented Year Round Worship with summer services that include music, singing and printed bulletins
Our Children's Religious Education program continues to be strong with about 30 children present on many Sundays. We have engaged our older youth to assist with teaching and plan a Bridging program for youth transitioning to adulthood.
In the UUYO Community, our Hospitality Teams, which support UUYO's culture of welcoming, are growing and strengthening. We continue to have events such as the Thanksgiving Din- ner and Chili Cook-off. Gifts from our All Church Auction allowed us to begin remodeling Schweitzer Lounge.
We have increased our support for the UU Denomination by another 10% and received significant benefits, including Leadership Training programs. Additionally we have been blessed with Kristina Spaude joining us as a Ministerial Intern, learning from our church as she continues her training for UU ministry.
Our Goals for 2015
We've realized that strengthening our own UUYO Community is a key goal. To this end we plan to launch a Small Group Ministry (sharing groups) program in early 2015. We also seek to re-launch the Circle Supper program that was so popular a few years ago.
We also recognize that Community Service and Social Justice is important. We want to complete Green Sanctuary certification and develop at least one other strong Social Justice area, such as Reproductive Justice or Marriage Equality.
Our Adult Religious Education offered programs like WisdomPath (money, life and spirituality) and The Shared Pulpit (lay preaching) along with other events like the Women's Retreat. Our summer program, Journey Café, offered a more spirit-based approach to the former Universal Café series
Our Social Justice program reached out to support Valley charities through our Share the Plate program. We began the process of seeking renewal for our Welcoming Congregation status. We continue to support the Northside Farmers Market and welcome neighborhood groups such as Wick Park Neighbors, affinity groups such as Tightrope AA (LGBTQ friend- ly) and FrackFree Mahoning Valley, with building usage or reduced rent. The Green Sanctuary committee is progressing toward making UUYO as energy efficient as possible.
UUYO as a Teaching Congregation
In late 2014 we became a Teaching Congregation by welcoming Kristina Spaude as our two- year, part-time ministerial intern. We plan to continue to support her in her ministerial formation.

The Buddha tells a parable of placing a chunk of salt in a cup of water, making that cup undrinkable, while placing the same chunk in the Ganges river would have almost no effect. Expansiveness invites us to examine how we might expand the spiritual "water" around us. We create expansiveness, or boundlessness, by removing separation, division, xenophobia.
We can increase what UU theologian Bernard Loomer called S-I-Z-E, the capacity of a person's soul, the range and depth of their love and relationships, while still remaining their integrity and individuality. We find the infinite expanse, the universal oneness that the mystics of all traditions speak of in their own ways.

Britt Hayes is a writer, movie lover, and sensible sweater enthusiast living in Austin, Texas. She watches too much TV and never eats her vegetables. Her mom is worried about her.
'The Muppets 2,' the sequel to the 2011 film, has just cast 'Modern Family' star Ty Burrell in the role that once almost belonged to Christoph Waltz.
Earlier this week Kevin Smith said his hockey epic 'Hit Somebody' will now be a TV series instead of his last film before retirement, and now he's making 'Clerks 3' his final movie because of course he is.
It's not really 'Star Wars: Episode VII' news, but this interview with George Lucas and Kathleen Kennedy may help shed some light on why Lucas retired and how Kennedy stepped in to replace him.
Talk about your unexpected journeys -- a new report claims that 27 animals died due to the unsafe environment at a farm run by the production crew while Peter Jackson was filming 'The Hobbit.'
Stephen King's 'The Stand' is certainly a massive undertaking for any director, which is why it's understandable when Ben Affleck says he's having a hard time with the project right now.
That 'Twins' sequel is still happening -- 'Triplets,' starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny DeVito, and Eddie Murphy, has just landed two interesting writers.

So.. what now?
We have several takeaways after considering our test data and talking with Nalasco and Petersen about these issues. One of the big ones: ensuring frame-rate smoothness is a new frontier in GPU "performance" that's only partially related to raw rendering speeds. Multi-GPU solutions are challenged on this front, but single-GPU graphics cards aren't entirely in the clear, either. New technologies and clever algorithms may be needed in order to conquer this next frontier. GPU makers have some work to do, especially if they wish to continue selling multi-GPU cards and configs as premium products.
Meanwhile, we have more work ahead of us in considering the impact of jitter on how we test and evaluate graphics hardware. Fundamentally, we need to measure what's being presented to the user via the display. We may have options there. Petersen told us Nvidia is considering creating an API that would permit third-party applications like Fraps to read display times from the GPU. We hope they do, and we'll lobby AMD to provide the same sort of hooks in its graphics drivers. Beyond that, high-speed cameras might prove useful in measuring what's happening onscreen with some precision. (Ahem. There's a statement that just cost us thousands of dollars and countless hours of work.)
Ultimately, though, the user experience should be paramount in any assessment of graphics solutions. For example, we still need to get a good read on a basic question: how much of a problem is micro-stuttering, really? (I'm thinking of the visual discontinuities caused by jitter, not the potential for longer frame times, which are easer to pinpoint.) The answer depends very much on user perception, and user perception will depend on the person involved, on his monitor type, and on the degree of the problem.
|Ultimately, though, the user experience should be paramount in any assessment of graphics solutions.
Presumably, a jitter pattern alternating between five- and 15-millisecond frame times would be less of an annoyance than a 15- and 45-millisecond pattern. The worst example we saw in our testing alternated between roughly six and twenty milliseconds, but it didn't jump out at me as a problem during our original testing. Just now, I fired up Bad Company 2 on a pair of Radeon HD 6870s with the latest Catalyst 11.8 drivers. Fraps measures the same degree of jitter we saw initially, but try as I might, I can't see the problem. We may need to spend more time with (ugh) faster TN panels, rather than our prettier and slower IPS displays, in order to get a better feel for the stuttering issue.
At the same time, we're very interested in getting reader feedback on this matter. If you have multi-GPU setup, have you run into micro-stuttering problems? If so, how often do you see it and how perceptible is it? Please let us know in the comments.
Although they've been a little bit overshadowed by the issues they've helped uncover, we're also cautiously optimistic about our proposed methods for measuring GPU performance in terms of frame times. Yes, Nvidia's frame metering technology complicates our use of Fraps data with SLI setups. But for single-GPU solutions, at least, we think our new methods, with their focus on frame latencies, offer some potentially valuable insights into real-world performance that traditional FPS measurements tend to miss. We'll probably have to change the way we review GPUs in the future as a result. These methods may be helpful in measuring CPU performance, as well. Again, we're curious to get some reader feedback about which measures make sense to use and how they might fit alongside more traditional FPS averages. Our sense is that once you've gone inside the second, it may be difficult to look at things the same way once you zoom back out again.

Oga is a mark for the german distributor Obergassner. Mine seems to be a version from a Franka's model. My first photos as a baby, in last 60es were token with this cam by my father. I get this cam from my parents closet when I was 17 and took lot of pics in the last 80es and early 90es. I loved it because I could to try every speed and diaphragm and I learnt a lot about to shoot photos. These times I did as well somtimes the b/w lab. It was amazing. After 20 years I get a new time this loved camera to shoot some photos for lomography. I think I get inspired with my old so loved cam. Maybe I did my best with it. You see there's a problem with the winder lever. It don't pull lot of time the entired frame and I find lot of partial superpositions... but it is as well and attractive, so sometimes I can action twice the shutter in order to get double expossures. Ok. I feel no nostalgic with this camera that I cannot stop writing. Excuse, me please... ;-)Taken by lupideeloop with an Oga loaded with Kodak Gold 200 (35mm) film in A Coruña, Spain. These tags describe this photo: frnaka, franka, coruña, expired, spain, galicia, obergassner, and oga. Date: 2012-10. This photo can also be found in the albums My own favourite shotsOga.

Kodak Gold Chinese Fake? :D I think I may have used one once...
@saidseni, Yeah, I bought it into a chinese bazzar. There's o frame number or any letter or mark in the whole film. All impresions on the box and as well painted on the chasis are the usual in the Kodak Gold packages... Curious but not a fine film, really. ;-)

I see of little more importance to the future of our country and our civilization than the full recognition of the place of the artist."

California and New York gays voted for Hillary
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Super Tuesday may very well decide the Democratic and Republican candidates who will compete in the Presidential race but it will certainly NOT decide the 2008 Presidential race.That can only be decided in November.
So suddenly our votes count, despite their reluctance to supotrt gay issues.
Smart gay voters would tell them to BOTH bugger off.Bill Clinton signed DOMA and Hillery has a history of "forgetting" her gay supporters when they are inconvenient.Obama is friendly with anti-gay black preachers.If either of them are in fact "gay friendly" and not "gay friendly when its convenient", then I am French war hero.
I plan to pull the lever marked "flush" in voting booth in November. The crap candidates the two major parties are stinking up the place.Will the Queen please take us back? The colonies are in big trouble.
Hillary Clinton is one of two antigay candidates running for the Democratic nomination. The other is Barak Obama. They both pigheadedly oppose samesex marriage. Their party dropped the hate crimes bill and gutted ENDA and refused to even try to repeal Clintons DOMA and DADT so they wouldn't be election issues. They both support union busting laws, endless tax breaks for the rich and deregulation of corporate predators that have sabotaged our standard of living and sent the economy into a steep nosedive. They support the war but oppose socialized medicine. A vote for them is a vote for eight more years of Bush Lite – gaybashing, war and economic disaster.If you want real change then vote for any communist, socialist, labor or other left wing party or for 'none of the above', which is our version of Saviks 'flush' lever here in Nevada. In addition tens of millions will refuse to vote, disgusted at the latest round of lesser evils to come down the pike. Voting for one of these lesser evil candidates is like debating the merits of bone cancer vrs. late stage chronic diabetes.
Omar and James, I vote for nobody who doesn't support my rights, be they democrat, republican, labour or tory. This two party system is not working in either society, it is corrupt and not serving the interests of all the people which is what democracy is all about. Give me the Greens any time, at least they support full equality and a host of other important issues, the only party with a real platform in the interests of all. Can you imagine the impact the Greens would have if every Gay voter supported them, worldwide? The sleaze-bags and expedients in the two major parties would be vying for our votes more than ever. Sadly, that's not going to happen. If it does, I hope I'm alive to see it.
Bill, I would never vote for any of them. I'm a Green so that counts me out. I don't believe in voting for anyone just to get the more conservative candidate out of office. All you get is the same old crap every four or five years in either society and as always, we're on the bottom rung of the ladder in the pecking order of things. As I said in another post, the two party system is corrupt and needs replacing with better government and better candidates who are genuinely interested in equality and justice for all, not just for the status quo who happen to be overwhelmingly straight. Voting for what we currently have is voting against one's self. An even more perverse form of self-loathing.

Fredo is a disgrace. That's Fredo Gonzalez. He's running around yapping his mouth about my fantasy team's business, saying Alex Wood can go to the bullpen and Gavin Floyd can stay in the rotation. Why don't you defend Moe Green while you're at it, Fredo? I'm sorry, I'm about to have an aneurysm. Fredo said he doesn't want to go to a six-man rotation, saying, "(Floyd) is one guy that would not go to the bullpen… We all know how the bullpen thing is. You get up. You get down. You go in. You got to warm up in 15 (pitches), and I don't want to do that to (Floyd)." No, instead you'll do it to one of your best, young arms. Jonny Venters just asked an elderly man behind him in line at the bank to sign his check for him because he can't lift his arm! I know it was you, Fredo. You broke my heart. You broke my heart! Well, I haven't heard anything official yet, but it sounds like Wood is headed to the bullpen so Floyd can start. Super. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Matt Wieters
Matt Wieters is headed to see Dr. Freeze about his elbow and likely to the DL. Stop throwing curveballs to 2nd base! Dr. Freeze has never seen an elbow he can't sideline for six months. Can't we have anything nice this year? The only player that is healthy in the entire league is Nick Punto. Now starting at 1st base for the Orioles…Nick Punto! Now starting at catcher for the Reds…Nick Punto! Now starting in right field for the Angels…Nick Punto! It's Nick Punto's world and we're just trying to play fantasy baseball! The only ones doing well this year are Dr. James Andrews and Nick Punto! "Wanna go to Friendly's?" "Sure, your treat!" And then Dr. James Andrews and Nick Punto laughed evilly. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
I'm going to take a different approach to this week's Deep Impact post and talk about my up-to-this-point woulda-coulda-shoulda team, and point out the surprises with whom I think will have a sustainable, deep into-the-season impact.

Funny that Mark Trumbo has a stress fracture in his foot, because I now have a stress fracture in my stress-bearing frontal lobe. "You wanna remember your anniversary with the Cougar or Mark Trumbo's recovery timetable?" Shut up, frontal lobe, I hate you! I wish you were dead! *wavy lines* Hey, I have no frontal lobe anymore. Cool, I really like this episode of The Big Bang Theory. They are a gang of funny people! I wish Slystevesr Stallone would do more movies. He's so awesome. Slvester? Why is there a red line under that? Damn, I can't spell my favorite movie star's name without my frontal lobe! *wavy lines* Okay, I'm glad I have a frontal lobe, but not glad I have Mark Trumbo on multiple deep league teams. Wah, wah, wah, that's the sound of my sad Trumbone. This could mean more playing time for Tony Campana — SAGNOF! — or steady playing time for Cody Ross — um, AGNOF!, I guess. Last time Trumbo had a stress fracture — how many stress fractures does this guy have? — he was laid up for close to six months. Yay. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
The H is O! Oh, no, Jose Fernandez has me so jazzed, I need to bust some rhymes. I came in the door, I said it before. I never let a top starter magnetize me no more, but watching Fernandez yesterday is biting me, fighting me, inviting me to want a number one starter just this one time. I can't hold it back, I'm looking at his pitching line — 8 IP, 0 ER, 3 baserunners, 14Ks. Taking off my coat, and that's me quoting Rakim's quote, his pitches were kicking it until his last hitter, Ryan Doumit. My mind remains refined, all kinds of ideas. Self-esteem makes it seem like his pitching took years to build, but his age is just twenty-one. Prepared, never scared, he's just a blessed one. And you know that I've never seen that terrible movie with Jamie Foxx, think it was called The Soloist, so Jose F. make 'em clap to this. I said it the other day, but in case you weren't reading, Fernandez is going to be the best pitcher going into next year. Thought he was a donut, you tried to glaze him. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
"I'm a prince, boy. Have you ever been with a prince? …Take off your clothes."
No, this isn't Tehol quoting Tehol, regurgitating the way I speak to my Thai boy handlers when I'm doing thong shoots in Phuket. Very similar verbiage, but no, this fascinating quote comes from none other than the legendary, Prince Oberyn Martell of Dorne, a man I'm positive you will come to love throughout season four of HBO's Game of Thrones. Like a supreme vortex, "GOT" has sucked in the entire nation, and it's well past time it was brought forth into the wondrous world of fantasy baseball. [Ed. Note– Oh, you mean like here, and here, and, ahem, here? FIRST! Bwahahahah.] Some people say fantasy baseball is the equivalent of D&D for jocks. Well, I for one, want a piece of both worlds! The season four premier was a masterful work of art, as I'm fully reminded as to why I was so entranced by the novels. Let's have some fun and intertwine some of the premium quotes from the season premier with the annual Delight/Disgrace column. Will you allow me the pleasure of doing this? No? Too late, for I am already balls deep. and I'm on some Geno Auriemma/Charlie Sheen winning type-ish thing. So let us begin. [Warning, Game of Thrones Spoilers ahead!]Please, blog, may I have some more?
Ryan Braun hit his first two home runs off Kyle Kendrick — you know, that Kendrick sure sticks out for a sore thumb — and then Braun emancipated a third ball off Lincoln. Three homers a mere two days after saying he was not able to swing normally is quite the 180. It's like when Mickey Rourke is one of the best actors — in movies like Diner and Angel Heart — only to have a string of flops, terrible plastic surgery and then he reemerges in The Wrestler. Or Travolta's career is in the toilet after Saturday Night Fever, dealing with whispers about his bedroom predilections and then he does Pulp Fiction. Doing The McConaughey while McConaughey was still ruining his career. A few years later, Mickey Rourke has another string of flops and his face still scares small children; Travolta does Battlefield Earth and now whispers about his religion have joined the other whispers. (Be forewarned, McConaughey.) So, will Braun now reemerge as the top hitter in the game and hold his Pulp Fiction/Wrestler renaissance or will his thumb continue to haunt him while he commits to Wild Hogs II: Where The Wild Hogs Are? All I know is he was complaining about his thumb a full nine months after he first hurt it, so it doesn't seem likely to disappear that fast. His value may be even higher now, but I'd still be concerned. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Here's me yesterday looking to pick up the new Yankee closer…. *types Kelly into waivers box, presses Enter* Inner monologue, "Joe Kelly?! No, I don't want him! Casey Kelly?! Blech! C'mon, this is a 15 team mixed league, I'm not in an NL-Only keeper! Someone beat me to the waiver wire? Really? For the first time in three years, I'm watching a Yankees game because nothing else is on and serendipitously David Robertson is announced with a groin strain, so there's no way anyone beat me to the waiver wire… I'm here first, I have to be! So where's Kelly?! Fine, I'll click the button that shows the players that are owned too. Wait, he's not even listed there. What in the holy name of Christ Colabello–" And that was around the time I realized his name was spelled Kelley, not Kelly and while I was misspelling it someone else swooped in and grabbed him. This has been the latest installment of Grey Albright: Are You Sure You Want To Listen To This Man? So, Robertson is out for a few weeks with a groin strain — easy on the noodes, doode! — and Shawn Kelley is your new closer in New York, and, even though yesterday was Kelley's first career save, it doesn't mean he can't be successful for the next three weeks. Or unsuccessful, but I'd pick him up either way in any league. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Scott White from CBS hosted this AL-Only draft that started at 10 AM PST, but started around 1 PM PST for me because I refused to draft anyone for the price they were going. Instead of drafting, I watched my favorite cooking show, Celebrity Chef Mr. Hamiham. He's the only one I know that makes a sandwich like my Eastern European nanny, Viktoria. Everyone that knows anything about sandwich preparation knows there's no sandwich before adding the white cabbage. Rudy was in Tampa (slogan: We're no San Diego, but just as classy), so I went it alone with this draft. All the mistakes (none!) and acclaim (some!) can fall fully on my shoulders. I drafted this on February 18th, so don't say so-and-so may not make the rotation/lineup/team or is now injured, why did you draft him? I drafted him because at the time it seemed like a smart move. Okay, okay, at no point does it seem like a smart move to draft Kurt Suzuki. Point taken. It's a 12-team AL-Only league and I drafted using that thing I linked to under the link-ma-whosie — seamless linking!

As of right now, is anything in this endless universe more scorching hot that Matthew McConaughey? When you take into account his performance in the criminally underrated film, Mud, his epic scene stealing performance in, The Wolf of Wall Street, which was possibly the greatest part of the movie which one would think impossible considering the countless classic scenes that Wall Street has within, and his Oscar winning performance in the true story of, The Dallas Buyers Club, the answer is a resounding, NO! There is none hotter. Oh yea, I almost forgot to mention, Matty Ice, tag teaming viewers into submission along with partner, and legend in his own right, Woody Harrelson, in the undeniable classic series, True Detective. If his Oscar speech didn't prove to you that this man cannot be touched right now, then you may want to go see a doctor, for you are clinically insane.Please, blog, may I have some more?

The Camp Verde town pool will stay open until Labor Day if the Town Council approves its new budget for the 2009-10 fiscal year.
It still might not open for several days, though, while the town's parks and recreation department works to repair unexpected issues with the pool.
Regardless, the council wants the pool opened as soon as possible.
Under the budget recommended by Town Manager Michael Scannell, the pool would close Friday, Aug. 7. It's not that Scannell wants to reduce the pool's hours, he's just looking for ways to keep the budget balanced while allowing the town to continue providing as many services as possible.
The town was left in a bigger bind when the Camp Verde Unified School District board voted to cancel nearly $20,000 of shared funding for the pool late last year.
While no vote has officially been made on the town's budget, the council is hoping it can keep the pool open until Labor Day.
It could happen if the town decides not to spend the money on a consulting firm to look at town code and spends it on the pool instead.
Matt Morris, the former housing department director, has been reassigned thanks to the elimination of the town's housing department.
Now he's the town's special projects administrator, and he's been tasked to look at the town's codes and revise them.
Morris said he'd like to bring in a consulting firm at around $150,000 to analyze the current codes and offer advice.
If a firm were used part-time, Morris said the work could be done perhaps for around $50,000.
If Morris does the work alone, with limited support from town staff, it could add another year to the two-and-a-half to three year process Morris said the code revision might take.
But the pool is still a priority for the town.
"I would like to have seen it open two weeks ago," said Vice Mayor Brenda Hauser.

Cote d'Ivoire president starts state visit
Cote d'Ivoire President Alassane Ouattara 370.
(photo credit:Thierry Gouegnon/Reuters)
Just hours after the first planeload of South Sudanese migrants was scheduled to take off from Ben-Gurion Airport late Sunday night, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu will meet Monday afternoon with Cote d'Ivoire President Alassane Ouattara, who also has hundreds of nationals here in line for deportation.Diplomatic officials, while acknowledging that the deportations have created an image problem for Israel in Africa and elsewhere, denied that the issue cast a cloud over Ouattara's visit or ties with the west African country."The bottom line is that these people came here illegally and are being repatriated home," one official said. "No one can complain."The official said that Netanyahu has for months discussed improving ties with Sub-Saharan Africa, including with Cote d'Ivoire, which is emerging from a disorderly transfer of power that included the killing of hundreds of people, and which almost hurtled the country into a new civil war.In November 2010, Ouattara defeated the incumbent president Laurent Gbagbo, who then refused to relinquish power and was eventually arrested by French special forces some five months later.Israel, which had good ties with Gbagbo, a Christian, also maintained good ties with the Muslim Ouattara, an economist who spent five years as deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund. There Ouattara worked with Bank of Israel Governor Stanley Fischer. Fischer greeted the Cote d'Ivoire president at the airport upon arrival Saturday night.President Shimon Peres met Ouattara Sunday and hosted a luncheon for him at Jerusalem's King David Hotel.Cote d'Ivoire, beset by severe security and economic problems, is seeking Israel's cooperation in speeding up its development.At their meeting, Peres said he was the only person present old enough to remember the visit of Cote d'Ivoire's first president Felix Houphouet- Boigny in 1962, when he signed a cooperation agreement with Israel.Peres said Houphouet- Boigny was a great admirer of Israel's development and technology, as is Ouattara.Like the rest of Africa, Houphouet-Boigny – notwithstanding his close ties with Israel – cut off relations with Israel after the 1973 Yom Kippur War. The ties were renewed in 1986.

Special Correspondent
NEW DELHI: The BJP is not contemplating any disciplinary action against its former minister and Rajya Sabha MP Arun Shourie for writing a series of articles in a newspaper criticising the functioning of the party and its "leader," without naming anyone.
The party's parliamentary spokesperson Sushma Swaraj was asked on Thursday what action, if any, the BJP was going to take against Mr. Shourie for what was seen as a direct attack on Leader of the Opposition L.K. Advani. She was also asked about the party's views on the issue — a talking point in party circles.
Ms. Swaraj said BJP president Rajnath Singh had told her, "No disciplinary action was being contemplated against Mr. Shourie." She further said that on Wednesday she had asked Mr. Advani what she should tell the press on the Shourie articles. "Mr. Advani told me to tell you that what he has written are his [Mr. Shourie's] personal views."
Days before the national executive committee meeting, a leaked letter by Mr. Shourie to the BJP leadership became an issue as it was critical of the manner the party had gone about analysing its electoral defeat and rewarding those whose poll strategy led to the debacle.
BJP insiders told The Hindu that no action was being taken against Mr. Shourie as that would open a can of worms. Taking action against him would start yet another round of internal bickering.
Some of these issues are expected to be sorted out at a brainstorming session — 'chintan baithak' — in August, but no dates have as yet been fixed. No one in the party expects these internal fights to stop till the final word is said on who the next party president would be after Mr. Rajnath Singh's tenure ends, and whether Mr. Advani at that point would be asked to step down from the position of Leader of the Opposition.
