JERUSALEM, Israel - Israel Defense Forces medical and search-and-rescue teams are winding up their work in Haiti, the IDF Spokesperson's Office announced on Monday.
The decision follows the arrival of additional international aid teams to Haiti, including the U.S. hospital ship, allowing Israeli medical personnel to head for home later this week.
Dozens of patients treated in the IDF field hospital have been transferred to the U.S. hospital and the remainder will be transported to other medical facilities that are up and running.
During their 11-day stay, Israeli doctors and nurses have treated more than 960 patients, performed 294 successful surgeries, and attended 16 births, including three delivered by Caesarian section.
IDF search-and-rescue teams have helped extricate dozens of Haitians trapped in collapsed buildings, set up water tank facilities and assisted survivors in a variety of other ways.
The IDF will leave much of the equipment it brought, including tents and medical supplies.

Vigilance in Concord: Free Staters right to protest
We were glad to see the Free Staters protest in Concord last week. Holding government officials accountable for misuses of power and authority cannot be done at the voting booth alone. Sometimes public attention has to be focused in other ways. If only more people paid closer attention to what their local government officials were doing in their name. If more people attended government meetings, reviewed government documents and otherwise kept an eye on their public servants, the need for protests would be diminished as the extra scrutiny would reduce bad behavior.

Exhaling - sometimes we forget.
I think it was in one copy I received, by accident or fate, of World Pulse one day where I found recipes for spiritual baths. It could have been another magazine. Right now, all I remember were bath concoctions to cleanse the spirit or evoke loveliness. I closed my eyes and thought of a hotspring surrounded by moss and a steaming bath under a blanket of stars. The scents of sandalwood and lavender lingering on a mild cool breeze.
My brother had nowhere to live two weeks ago. I haven't lived with anyone for over a year. My last relationship left me in deep need of quiet reflection, solitude, and the space for me to be with myself. My brother is still finding his footing, learning who he is, and trying to take care of himself. He continues to express his gratitude for being in my home, even though I wake him up listening to Joni Mitchell or Moby, and have creosote in bottles or vases throughout the house. He is getting used to the scents of sage and patchouli and doesn't think the leafy foods I eat are weird anymore.
Last night he was complaining of a backache and I told him to take a bath with epson salt and clove oil or ginger. He hugged me and said, "I love being here. I haven't taken a bath in such a long time, I can't even remember."
So many times throughout the past few weeks I have been thinking of the final two weeks of class, the first article to write, the first seven minutes of an important interview that the recorder wasn't even working for, how everything will be paid for, how we'll be fed...and for some reason all it took was his hug to make me exhale as though I had not even been allowing myself to breathe.
Some of his friends have come in and out of my home since he has been with me and I hear something repetitive from each of them. Somehow they think I am living a dream by living alone and having my own quiet space. I know I would be seen so differently in other places - single woman, no interest in marriage or kids, working to improve the world one poem at a time. One of his friends is a single mother who exhales deeply each time she walks past my doorstep. I told her she can have this too, she can focus on school and understand herself and provide a little space of comfort and safety for herself and her children. I'm going to help her understand the financial and academic aspects of going to college this week.
We are all examples. With every breath. Sometimes all a person may need is to be heard, or to walk into a space that feels safe and to know they want and deserve the same. Every detail of our lives is inspiring. The articles and poems I write...the workshops and classes I teach...it is not these small glimpses that can be empowering - but the detail in every moment of every day and the intention behind the breath and each step.
As your biggest fan (or at least one of the biggest, since you have so many), every time I read your writings I feel like I am picking up the bit of soul, love and care that my heart needs to go on every day.
I have been through so much darkness lately, following the right schedule of getting up, taking a shower, eating, leaving and coming back at the right times, just to keep me going every day, that I also forgot to breath.
Thanks for reminding me. Thanks for inspiring me to do it all over again without finding comfort in pain. I am alive, I know. And I need to be near people like you, who will make these little details become part of my new life.

You inspire me.
Every word I read from you is an inspiration. Thank you for all of your wisdom and grace Melissa.
In so much love,
Words of wisdom
I have been away from PulseWire for a while and upon reconnecting, I read your post. I so enjoy your pearls of wisdom and your thoughts this day reminded me of something the Dalai Lama said. "The way we live day to day may not reflect back to us our power to influence life or the web of relationships that connects us.
If by chance you are unaware of the strength of your words, I wanted to let you know that each of your journal entries have such power in connecting and positively influencing us. You inspire people to be interested in participating in other people's stories, in their narratives. Your stream of consciousness often serves as a doorway to further questions that naturally arise in the wake of your thoughts. I love that, through you, my ideas crystallize and evolve.
So thank you again for bringing your authentic self to PW so that we may all share in the beauty of your consciousness.
The gaps become small indeed
Yes, keep writing, sharing and speaking out. Although I may not always respond, I am listening with keen ears and an open mind. All the best with your article,

Need help understanding hair dryer features and technologies? Here are some essentials to know when choosing a hair dryer. For more in-depth info, check out our Hair Dryer Buying Guide.
|Hair Type
|Fine, thin or damaged
|If hair is fragile or damaged towel blot hair first to absorb excess water and then dry on the lowest setting.
|Medium/normal straight or wavy
|Most hair types will dry well with a variety of watt ranges, fewer watts will make your cuticles curl up!
|Thick and curly
|For thicker hair get tough with a top wattage dryer, e your stronger strands will dry faster!
The volts and wattage of a hair dryer don't necessarily equal drying power. Other features such as ion emission and tourmaline technology also work to speed drying time by evaporating water molecules from hair. Sylvia Zori, Folica.com's own hair dryer guru, offers a science class refresher. Water is a polar molecule, having a pair of equal and opposite charges. Positively charged air passes through an ionic converter in professional dryers that creates a negative charge to dry hair smoothly. The more negative ions a hair dryer can produce, the faster hair will dry with smoother, shinier results. Ionic technology paired with tourmaline and ceramic boosts productivity even further, taking half the time to dry and exposing hair to less heat.
Motor type is also a factor in hair drying time. Without boring you with high-technicalities, you want a dryer with an AC motor, which is designed to require less maintenance than a DC motor and will last longer. An AC motor is heavier than a DC, but will last longer, so more substantial equals quality in this case. AC motors are also used in other small home appliances like food processers because of their durability.

To be fair, I think that's only the case for micro-benchmarks that compare Perl 6 built-in features with the equivalent features provided by bloated/unoptimized/neglected Perl 5 modules.
For example, Perl 6's built-in
Rat type vs Perl 5's
In macro-benchmarks that use many different language features to achieve something resembling a real-world task, Rakudo Perl 6 still tends to be very slow. Also, start-up time is an issue for command-line scripts (although if you're using Perl 5 + Moose, you'll already be used to that...)
Of course, the performance progress that the Rakudo developers have made over the course of the last 6 months is impressive, and if I understand correctly, the optimization work is far from finished. Like Ovid, I'm hopeful that Winter ahem Christmas is coming... :)]]>
I only see 3 kinds of micro-benchmarks on that page where Perl 6 comes in faster or as fast as Perl 5:
This seems like an altogether archaic use-case from a P5 point of view (that is, probably not very meaningful with regards to real-life code).
This is what I was referring to in my previous comment.
This one is interesting; although I'm not entirely convinced that
my ($result) = $s =~ /^\s*(.*?)\s*$/s #P5
is the best way to fairly translate
$s.trim # P6
For one thing, an assignment is happening in the P5 version whereas the P6 one seemingly just discards the result; also, the P5 version could be rewritten using s///r in a way that does not involve constructing a capture group.
As for the macro-benchmarks, P6 is considerably slower for all of them -- except for rc-mandelbrot, which uses complex number arithmetic (P6 built-in "Complex" vs P5 "use Math::Complex;") - again, the kind of thing I was referring to in my last comment.
But do you expect it to stay like this?
No, I hope Rakudo will get similarly fast as perl. But lets not call it before it happens... :)]]>
If you, as a user, need to install a git snapshot of a project hosted
at GitHub, you can use https://undzilit4.me/ for that and you don't
need to bother about all the plugins. It's not equivalent to "git
clone", but you get what you want.
btw, when packaging .deb files, Debian tools expect tarballs too. And if you try to build .deb from git clone, debian workflow looks broken.
Yes, that was annoying for those who author Perl modules with
Dist::Zilla which are primarily shipped as .deb, e.g. in corporate
But there's a solution for that now: dh-dist-zilla, a debhelper plugin
which allows you to build a .deb from Dist::Zilla based distribution
without having Makefile.PL or Build.PL -- they will be generated
because "dzil build" is run to generate the Makefile.PL later used by
dh_auto_configure and friends.
See https://github.com/elmar/dh-dist-zilla and
Just my $0.02.
But when I'm choosing a module to use, I look closely at the failures to see why they are failing before deciding not to use a module. I care more that there are pass reports than the lack of fail reports.
I think the only time I've used that as a reason to not use a module was when that module hadn't been updated in several years, and consistently fails on recent versions of Perl.
I believe that CPAN Testers has a way that you can mark specific tests as not-applying just for such cases, but I've never used it.]]>
I strongly disagree. What if these Test::More changes *were* production ready? Receiving these failing reports, before Test::More sees a stable release, would be vital to identifying issues with your code, so you have a chance to fix it before that stable release and everyone is affected. The smokers can't know whether this trial is nearing production readiness or not.
CPAN test reports are my best indicator of whether my code is working for everyone, or just for me. I don't want to lessen the number of these reports.
However, the way the statistics are aggregated and reported *is* indeed misleading, and can improperly indicate that there is a problem with the module. In https://github.com/Test-More/test-more/issues/442#issuecomment-56428862 I suggested that reports that tested a dist where *any* listed prereq was in a dev release should be reported differently, and left out of the FAIL statistics. I think that tackles the correct problem, without undermining the efficacy of the test system.
PS. This thread should be taken to (or cc'd on) the cpan-testers-discuss mailing list, so Barbie can see it.]]>
Secondly, this is a conversation that has cropped up before, and I'm still in two minds about it. Short answer: I tend to side with brian. The tester platform shouldn't be doing any testing with the trial/development releases of pre-requisities, unless the tester is going to manually filter the results and send to the pre-requisite author if appropriate. I do understand Ether's perspective too, and there is merit in having these reports, but they more often target the wrong author.
Longer answer: The difficulty we have once the reports hits the Metabase, is that all the parsing into the CPAN Testers databases cannot know whether the test failures are because of the pre-requisite or the distribution being tested. The fault could be in the pre-requisite, but equally as Ether notes, the pre-requisite could be the next release and the distribution being tested makes assumptions that are no longer true. The analysis site, run by Andreas, could possibly highlight this with a suitable corpus of reports, but it too wouldn't necessarily know whether the pre-requisite or the distribution being tested is at fault. It takes a human to determine that.
I want CPAN Testers to helpful to authors, and in this situation it isn't. The wrong author is being alerted, and in order for the right author to be notified, it requires the wrong author to take the time to feedback to the pre-requisite author. It's a step I don't think we should be asking authors to do. In the short term, the solution is to ask testers not to test with trial/development pre-requisites. This could be to ensure smokers test in a clean environment, or to exclude any trial/development releases if you test in batches.
One longer term solution would be to add more logic in the smoker client to re-attribute the report to the pre-requisite. This would require quite a bit of work, and I'm not sure how easy that would be, but it might be worth someone investigating one of the clients to see what could be done. Another solution would be to add logic to the backend parser, which I plan to abstract out to make it easier to use in more applications. However, both of these solutions could still be attributing reports to the wrong author, and we would be back in the same position, just from a different perspective.
The Admin site can now allow authors/testers to mark reports to be ignored from the system. But I will look to see what can be done so that the system can re-attribute reports rather than ignore them. It's still fixing the problem in the wrong place in my opinion, and we're still relying on authors to do the work, but at least we won't lose the reports.
In Summary, I think testers have a responsibility to direct reports to the right author, and if they don't then stop using trial/development releases as pre-requisites.
Failures due to alpha versions of Test::More should not be red marks against OTHER modules that in no way took action to cause the problem.
If I had known they did show up there I probably would have been reluctant to release these alphas. The alphas are valuable and help me find a lot of issues... but I don't want other people to be dinged from them. I myself judge modules based on the pass/fail ratio in cpan testers.
At the very least these should be unknown, not fail (in metacpan/cpan display) At best they would be a fourth category that probably should not even be displayed without asking for it.
As for calling my changes overzealous, time will tell, I have no intention of marking it stable until the perl-qa and toolchain gangs are onboard, hopefully that level of approval works for everyone. I never had any plans to release this as stable without lots and lots of eyes double-checking me.]]>
I think cpanratings.perl.org can be made into a much better resource than it is today, but this would require some coding.
Having said that, who's managing/developing that site, and is the code public?
The site info page is missing, and it looks very much to be part of Perl NOC's services, although it's not published with the other perl.org sites found on https://github.com/perlorg .]]>
The snobbish attitude though is not reserved just for new developers. I'm not defending poorly written and possibly ill conceived modules that folks might naively upload to CPAN. I believe there need to be gatekeepers that keep the quality of the repository high. But can't reviews like that (however correct it might be) be done in a less public way?
Maybe create some phase gates for new contributors? or create some kind of bar to get over before you can upload and even get rated in the first place? I know that flies in the face of a free and open environment that promotes a rich marketplace of ideas, but the alternative creates a repo that will look like my garage. Who has time to sift through that junk? Ask my wife...
How about different CPAN tiers from free and open to highly restrictive where only the best tasting tuna gets to be Starkist? Or is that what the ratings are supposed to do and my suggestion is dumb?
It's really nice to have those in the community who are learned and experienced, and Perl has a lot of really smart people that happen to be programmers, but my experience has been that Perl's luminaries are at times either odd, obnoxious or both odd and obnoxious. People with a high degree of technical skill and acumen in this community would be well served in taking a few Dale Carnegie courses and understanding as the title of this post suggests, "we are all Perl ambassadors".
Bottom line I think the reputation of Perl developers as (sometimes) being old, out of touch and eccentric is not completely unfair and it is reflected sometimes in public ways that makes us all cringe. I'm encouraged at posts that point it out try to create a better experience for all Perl developers.]]>
Maybe create some phase gates for new contributors? or create some kind of bar to get over before you can upload and even get rated in the first place?
prepan.org exists as a place where authors can upload code for critique, but it doesn't get used often enough. I wouldn't mind the requirement for a new author to make at least one submission to prepan.org first (and get some positive feedback) before their first PAUSE upload, but this is difficult to enforce without a lot of code that no one would want to write.]]>
<end of dream sequence> :)]]>

Can we drink there, legally? Would be fun.
That was the last place we played back last winter, and I play it everyday at lunch, so I am using my veto on BVKS

Katy Perry Vs Lady Gaga. Who Will Win?
It's a good old fashioned pop superstar showdown with Katy Perry and Lady Gaga unintentionally going at each other this week.
Both popstars have released the lead singles off their upcoming albums and both are vying for the number 1 spot on Billboard's Charts.
It looks like Katy will win this round however if we look at sales. She could potentially sell upwards of 500,000 downloads of Roar in one week which could be a best for Katy.
Gaga looks to bow out at around 250,000 downloads this week far from the 400,000 Billboard initially projected.
If we go off of the sales Katy wins this round, but if you go off of fans reactions, Gaga has this one in the bag. Her fans are some of the most loyal in the industry.
We personally think both artists win because both singles are catchy and are far different from each other.

Saturday - January 25
Going to give this flu thing at least another day of rest, got the snotty nose thing going now which is very unpleasant for all involved. At this point I need to be realistic about the half marathon next weekend, probably not going to be the PR I was hoping for. But it will still be a good time! There are 6 of us flying down to Florida and shacking up at Karen's tiny house in Tarpon Springs.

I did go to work on Thursday after fever broke, but left early. Couldn't stand the thought of another day on the couch. This morning still have stomach ache and runny nose. We are supposed to go to a bike club social after work but I may have to rethink that depending on how the day goes.

Hi All, I am 25 married for 2 years and we have a 3 year old son, and now we are TTC #2... I am so excited, scared, nervous about this whole ttc thing, our son was an opps, (best mistake ever!) so I have no idea what to expect with all of this. Call me crazy but with my school schdule and life we really NEED this to happen by November. I am hoping for a summer baby, and since DS was cocived in one night that I should not even have been fertile on I am hoping #2 will come just as easily! So glad I found somewhere to vent and get some info. Good luck to you all!!

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
Now the first instructions we're going to add in our script are going to inside of the mouse over area. So I am going to add a few returns inside of here and what we want to do is check first to see what type of tip this is. So we're going to start with the standard JavaScript conditional statement, we're going to type if, beginning and ending parenthesis, beginning and ending bracket, split it open on the brackets. Now inside of the parenthesis for if we're going to start with dollar sign, parenthesis, this and parenthesis .attr for attribute, beginning and ending parenthesis.
Inside of the attr two tick marks for a string literal, data-tip-type. So for each HTML element with a tooltip class that triggers this function, this refers to the actual item that was rolled over. So we're going to check the attribute of each one of those items. So after the parentheses hit a space, two equal signs, another string literal and then type in text. So if the item that we moused over has the data-tip-type set to text, we're going to do this instruction here.
So inside of these brackets we're going to target the tooltip_container and set the HTML. So start with a dollar sign, parentheses, inside of the parenthesis two more tick marks, pound sign, tooltip_container. Outside of the parenthesis .html, parenthesis, then a semicolon. Inside of the parenthesis for html dollars sign, parenthesis, type the word this inside.
Outside of the parenthesis .attr for attribute, another set of parenthesis, tick marks inside for a string literal, data-tip-source. So what this is doing is targeting the tooltip_container and setting the html inside to the value of the item that was rolled over whatever the data-tip-source value is set to. Now to test this, let's save our file, let's come back to the index.html file, let's choose File > Save All, again just to make sure that everything has been saved.
Let's go to the File Manu > Preview in Browser. Once this comes up in a browser hit reload. Now we see our tooltip down here with our Test text. I'll come up here and rollover the text- based tooltip and then notice that the HTML has been changed to say this is the tip text, matching exactly what we put inside of the data-tip-source attribute of the actual link that just triggered that. So now that we're properly finding and testing for text-based tooltips, next we'll work on adding some HTML for the HTML format of tooltips.

The Wii is finally about to hit stores in the UK and soon you'll have Nintendo's latest, with it's motion-sensitive controller, its many interface options and, if you're hardcore, you'll have probably played at least ten hours into Zelda, too.
But there's so much more to look forward to with Wii other than Zelda. You've got the small, sleek console itself, the motion-sensitive controller that has the whole games industry abuzz with intrigue and excitement, and the feature-packed Wii Channels that aim to take over your life.
It's time to get excited about the coming of this fantastic console, so read on to get the low-down on the Wii hardware, the innovations of the controller and all of the Wii Channels. Good times are ahead.
The Hardware
The small and near-silent Wii is, as you will know, a clean and stylish-looking piece of kit, with Nintendo having cleverly tucked its many ports and sockets away in hidden compartments. Here are all of it's main components, and if you want to know more about how it looks, feels and performs, and find out what's in the box you're your Wii, check out our detailed hardware feature.
DVD Drive: The Wii takes DVD-sized Wii games as well as the smaller GameCube discs with a smooth, self-loading drive. It won't play DVD movies but an enhanced Wii planned for release next year will, although no European release date has been announced.
Internal Memory: The Wii has 512Mb of internal memory where you will store everything from saved game files to downloaded data such a Virtual Console games or bonus game content.
SD memory cards: SD Cards slot into the front of the machine under a small flap and can used to expand on the Wii's internal memory. Although the internal memory should be enough, a 2GB SD card would sort you right out.
Two USB ports: The two USB ports, as you expect, offer the possibility of connecting the Wii with other electrical devices and expansions. Although the only use currently announced for the ports is a USB Ethernet Kit.
GameCube ports: Opening the flap on the top of the console reveals four GameCube controller ports and the slots for two GameCube Memory Cards. You can use GameCube pads to play certain Virtual Console and Wii games, as well as GameCybe games. You cannot save Wii files on GameCube Memory Cards, and you cannot save GameCube files on Wii's internal memory.
Multi-out: Wii sends out all it's visual and audio signals through a single port, unlike the GameCube which has a separate Digital out for component and VGA signals.
The blue light: Everyone loves the blue light. Unfortunately, it doesn't stay on all the time, as Nintendo's dummy units and debug machines would have you believe. It comes on briefly when you turn the console on, and blinks on and off when your receive a message or update through WiiConnect 24
WiiConnect 24: The term used to describe Wii's always-on functionality. Even when in standby mode, the Wii remains partially on and contantly connected to the internet, receiving updates and game content even when you're not playing. Its power consumption in this mode has been compare to that of a small LED bulb.
The Wii Remote
The motion-sensitive Wii Remote is at the heart of the Wii's innovation. With the Wii Remote, developers are able to create games that are both more absorbing, engaging and interactive than ever before, and at the same time simplify games back to a level that allows even non-gamers to play - just like the old days.

The calendar gave retailers the longest possible shopping season this year — 32 days, including five weekends — and many are pushing the limits by starting Black Friday sales on Thanksgiving.
Extra long holiday shopping season to kick off on Thanksgiving night
Nearly all major national retailers bumped the time of their holiday store openings up by an hour or more, getting the frenzy known as the official beginning of the holiday shopping season off to its earliest start ever.
Toys R Us opens at 8 p.m. this year, an hour earlier than in 2011. Walmart, which is typically open 24 hours, has door busters as early as 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving. Target stores welcome shoppers at 9 p.m., three hours earlier than last year.
Retailers say sales on turkey day are what shoppers want.
"The response last year was overwhelmingly positive. We had thousands of customers waiting in line across the country," said Jennifer Albano, a spokeswoman for Toys R Us.
Yet not everyone is happy about the changes. More than 200,000 people (including dozens of shareholders) have signed an online petition filed by a Target worker on www.change.org, asking retailers to allow employees to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with their families. Some shoppers, too, prefer to keep Black Friday on Friday.
Travis and Rachel Benham, of Mustang, are die-hard Black Friday shoppers who complete nearly all of their holiday shopping the weekend after Thanksgiving each year. They've been known to visit several store openings in one night. But this year, the couple says they won't sacrifice family time to shop. But they won't boycott Black Friday either.
Instead, they're going to go shopping in the wee morning hours Friday like they typically have done, and hope that the stores have restocked merchandise bought up by the first wave of Thursday night shoppers.
"We're not going to rush out to be the first or fifth in line. We'll let those people go," Travis Benham said.

I'm not following a plan, I made my own up. I only want to run 3 times a week, just going to increase mileage and cut back 3 weeks out, last long run will be 3 weeks before race
I don't belong to a gym either! My husband does bodybuilding as a hobby, bit too strict on the diet for me!
We are doing the bridge today which I have done before, but whilst in position she had us put our arms over our head on the floor, made you feel it in your glutes more and hold for 8 seconds.
Have a 12 shift tmw so no running for me
46 seconds should be easy to take off iron pingu,
my legs feel tight still after half marathon but I'm still doing Pilates today, I will strenghthen my core!
My fastest 3 miler was 24:20, 10k 54:20, half marathon 2:05:34
when I did portsmouth marathon I really wanted to run 4:30, I did it in 5:16, it is a trail marathon and I found running on shingle and grass quite hard! I did not walk any of it and was just pleased to finish!
Booked in for stubbington 10k in jan and will try and do portsmouth half in feb.
Just done a 4 mile run, legs felt tight after yesterday.
Stylish what pace do you run at? If I do a 10k I can manage 8:20-30 but anything longer like 10 miler is 9:15/30,
my son has decided to quit swimming lessons so now may be able to get some park runs in, I'm disappointed he wants to stop but have said he's not staying at home on a Saturday on the iPad!

School provides crucial foundationApril 30,2014Please vote yes. I am a graduate of the Rutland High School class of 2010. While I was in high school, I was fortunate enough to serve as the student representative to the School Board. During this time I witnessed firsthand the diligent work that the School Board does to present the city with a fair budget to both the city taxpayers and the children.
I am proud of the fact that I am from Rutland and am so thankful for the opportunities that the city provided me. During my time in the Rutland City Public Schools, I received the foundation of my education. The skills and knowledge I learned allowed me to be successful after graduation. I have just completed a degree in health sciences from Northeastern University in Boston. I will continue to conduct research in Boston post-graduation and then pursue a career in medicine. This dream and the ability to achieve these dreams all started in the Rutland City Public Schools.
I encourage all Rutland City voters to vote yes for the budget to provide the current generation of Rutland City children with the same opportunities that you gave to me.

Quartet to meet in Munich over stalled Israeli-Palestinian peace talks

(photo credit:REUTERS)
MUNICH, Germany - Top officials from the United Nations, United States, Russia and European Union will meet on Saturday to discuss how they can help US Secretary of State John Kerry's drive for a Middle East peace deal, the EU said on Friday.The meeting of the so-called Quartet of Middle East peace mediators will be held in Munich on the sidelines of the annual security conference there.EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said she would chair the meeting with Kerry, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Quartet envoy Tony Blair, the former British prime minister."This meeting takes place in a moment when difficult and bold decisions need to be made. The dividends of peace for Israelis and Palestinians are enormous," Ashton said in a statement."I hope that together we can help those decisions to become a reality to continue working towards a negotiated peace agreement, setting an end to the conflict and fulfilling the legitimate aspirations of both parties," she said.Kerry has toiled for six months to push Palestinians and Israelis towards an elusive peace deal to end their generations-old conflict.A handful of diplomats remain hopeful he will defy the pessimists and secure at least a framework deal in the coming weeks to allow detailed talks to continue beyond the original nine-month deadline, which expires on April 29.But, with both sides far apart on many core issues including borders, security, the right of return for Palestinian refugees and the future status of Jerusalem, many Palestinians and Israelis believe the talks are going nowhere.

Final Score: Dallas 7, Chicago 2
Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Jason Arnott had two goals as the Dallas Stars skated to a 7-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center.
Jere Lehtinen and Brenden Morrow each had a goal and two assists and Jussi Jokinen had a goal and an assist for the Stars, who have won their last two games after a three-game slide.
Marty Turco stopped 18 shots in the victory for Dallas, which is 11-0-2 (two ties) in its last 13 games against Chicago and has outscored them 21-6 in three games this season. Also, Turco is a career 10-0-1 (one tie) against the Blackhawks.
"The Red Wings have my number," said Turco about his streak against Chicago. "It all evens out. We don't take the Hawks for granted and always try our best. One of these days it will reverse, but until then I will enjoy the ride."
Rene Bourque and Mark Bell tallied goals for the Blackhawks, who have lost two straight and five of their last six games.
Adam Munro started in net for Chicago, but was chased out after allowing three goals on 11 shots. Craig Anderson replaced him and fared no better, allowing four goals on 17 shots.
The Stars drew first blood in the game just 4:44 in. Jokinen brought the puck into the Blackhawks zone along the left boards. He skated into the slot and from the inside of the right circle let loose with a backhander that beat Munro for his 13th goal of the season.
Dallas took a 2-0 lead when Niklas Hagman stuffed in a centering pass from Sergei Zubov just 1:15 after the first goal.
The Stars continued to pour it on in the middle stanza and made it a 3-0 game when Martin Skoula's blast from the high slot went through a screen and into the right corner of the net 4:52 in.
Munro was pulled from net after the goal and replaced by Anderson.
The Blackhawks finally got on the board, but needed a 5-on-3 power play to do it. Trevor Daley and Lehtinen were in the box for Dallas and Bell took advantage when his cannon shot from the top of the left circle went into the left corner of the net to make it a 3-1 game 7:57 into the second period.
However, Dallas regained its three-goal advantage a little over two minutes later. Lehtinen tried to hit a player cruising down low on the left side of the net. But his pass hit the stick of Chicago defenseman Duncan Keith in front of the net and went past Anderson.
"They're solid, healthy, one of the best teams and running on all cylinders," said Bell about the Stars. "They are there every year. We play good against Detroit. I cant say why we don't do well against Dallas."
Morrow notched his 20th goal of the season 6:11 into the third period and Arnott's one-timer with 7:59 remaining in the game made it a 6-1 Stars advantage.
Chicago got a power-play goal by Bourque to make it a 6-2 game with 6:27 remaining in the contest.
But, Dallas got the final goal of the game on Arnott's second goal of the contest on a 5-on-3 power play with 4:39 left in the game.
Game Notes
Dallas travels to Edmonton for a game on Tuesday...The Blackhawks go on the road for a game in Columbus on Tuesday...Chicago went 2-for-6 with the man advantage...The Stars connected twice on their seven power plays...Zubov and Bill Guerin had two assists each.

Pope Francis' 1st year: No revoluton, but hope for change
"He talks about a more open-armed church. I like that," the 48-year-old San Antonio resident said. "Actual change won't be easy, especially when that change is about some dearly held beliefs. But he talks about a more open, more accepting church, and that gives me hope."
While a change in policy remains to be seen, it was an open and very public declaration of intent, which many saw as at least the beginning of a positive change.
He baptized the baby of a couple who'd been married outside the church - in the Sistine Chapel, no less - and promised an unmarried pregnant woman that he'd baptize her child as well, if she couldn't find another willing priest.
In a November apostolic exhortation, he said, "Just as the commandment 'Thou shalt not kill' sets a clear limit in order to safeguard the value of human life, today we also have to say 'thou shalt not' to an economy of exclusion and inequality. Such an economy kills. How can it be that it is not a news item when an elderly homeless person dies of exposure, but it is news when the stock market loses two points?"
In his first year, he replaced four of five cardinals who sat on a bank supervisory board. Those replaced had been appointed to five-year terms in the last days of Benedict's papacy.
While Francis has addressed topics such as Communion for those who've divorced and offered hope for a larger role for women in the church hierarchy, Tosatti notes that any change would come against the deeply held beliefs of many around the world. Change isn't as easy as announcing it from the Vatican.

Single European transport area: - extracts from the report by Mathieu GROSCH (EPP, BE)
Strasbourg, France - EP
End production:
First transmission:
European Parliament debated today on the future of European transports, and on the road to establish a single European transport area. Mathieu Grosch's report (EPP, BE) first focuses on two goals : - the 50% reduction in the number of deaths and severe injuries on the road; - the internalisation of the external costs, which includes noise and pollution costs, of all forms of transport. Both goals having, in the Rapporteur's view, to be reviewed regularly, and not merely as part of the mid-term review. A third important point in the report is the harmonisation of working and social conditions for employees in the transport sector, as a major condition to ensure proper functioning of the European internal transport market. The Rapporteur insisted on the fact that the harmonisation of training, job access and working conditions for all carriers should, in the long term, lead to an harmonisation of salaries, preventing this way social dumping and distortions to competition. When it comes more peculiarly to sea transport, a special attention is driven to the Commission proposals on the liberalisation of port services and ground handling services : here too, the Report insists on the fact that any market liberalisation should promote the harmonisation of employment and social rules, and focus on service quality. The de-carbonisation of transport also continues to be an important political goal. In the view of the Rapporteur, clear standards should be set for all carriers, and relevant incentives should be created to ensure that all forms of transport increase their sustainability. The assessment of the sustainability of forms of transport should be based on objective criteria which include not only their use, but also their entire 'footprint', from creation and required infrastructure to disposal. Given that transport is dependent on oil, alternative and renewable energies should gain ever greater importance. But before even developing different technologies, all carriers should pay greater attention to energy saving solutions available today, such as driving style, supported by relevant training, the speedy creation of functional air space blocks, landing and take-off options and mobility plans which give greater space to buses, trams, etc. Key figures in the transport market : - the transport sector in the European Union accounts for some 5% of GDP and provides some 10 million job. - on average, 13.2% of the budget of private households is spent on transport goods and services. - in 2009 exports of machinery and equipment in the transport sector totalled EUR 454.7 billion, accounting for 41.5% of all exports from the EU27. In 2009 the EU registered its biggest trade surpluses in the areas of machinery and equipment in the transport sector (EUR 112.6 billion) and transport services (EUR 21.5 billion). - EU transport still depends on oil and oil products for 96% of its energy needs. - in 2010, the oil import bill was around € 210 billion for the EU.

TITLE : Single European transport area: - extracts from the report by Mathieu GROSCH (EPP, BE)
EXTERIOR SHOT European Parliament Strasbourg
SOUNDBITE (German) Mathieu Grosch (EPP, BE) English translation : -What is important to me, is that in our efficiency goal we meet economical efficiency, but also the aspect of environmental protection as well as correct working conditions. We need all different types of efficiency in a proper transport policy. We focus over the next decade so and made 31 clear proposals. First of all, on safety, this is particularly important in true road traffic, 400 000 people died on the street and very many injured, we have clear measures to cut this back, to reduce this by at least 50%.
SOUNDBITE (Lettonian) Krišjānis KARIŅŠ (EPP, LV) : English translation : - Within the European Union, a third of the energy consumption is accounted for by the transport sector, basically oil products, and those are imported to the tune of 80%. In term of transports and traffic, we are over-dependent on imported raw materials. And we have to drive that proportion down. There are 3 possible ways of achieving that : - first of all, we would have to make more efficient use of fuels, - we have to call for a higher proportion of bio-fuels - and thirdly, we could look at new technologies and think about electrical power.
SOUNDBITE (Czech) Olga SEHNALOVA (S&D, CZ) : English translation : - The European cohesion policy instrument must make sure that the infrastructure in all Member States is harmonized, based on the principle such as safety, and including the working conditions of professionals, of employees, because this sector employs about 10 million persons, that's an important factor, meet a quality of labour, training or safety at work, because transport is about people so their working condition must comply with the gravity of the consequences this work can have.
SOUNDBITE (German) Michael CRAMER (Greens/EFA, DE) English translation : - Transport is absorbing what are doing in other areas at the expense of great deal of tax money. So we need to see a change in transport. So I am very grateful that we managed to achieve a compromise that will reduce CO2 emissions by 2020 by 20% on the base of 1990 figures, not 2008, which is what the Commission wanted by 2030. So we tightened that up and I call on the Commission to take this on board, we can waste no time, we've got to get on with it.
SOUNDBITE (Italian) Antonio Cancian (EPP, IT) : English translation : - The main points I want to recall here are : the creation of a real single market in all transport sectors, these bureaucratic and technical hurdles are discouraging competition and are preventing costs of transport services from going down. We talk in particular about the railway sector. 5 years on from the Single Act we can't allow the present situation to continue, particularly when we could see transport as a way of helping the European economy pick up again.
SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) João FERREIRA : English translation : - Once again, we hear talk of price worthy goals, while actually achieving very different goals is actually on the agenda. The report talk about the environmental goals, energy efficiency, low carbon, interoperability, that's all great stuff. But actually we can see later on in the report what is really going to happen. Once again we see insistance on liberalizing the transport sector, that's to say privatising everything that could possibly be profitable, which will hurt people, who will see prices going up and safety going down, workers who will loose rights and be sacked, and financial economy will be deprived of a crucial instrument for growth. Each country has its own priorities and need in transport, and the level of their relative development depends on their unique characteristics, so the question is, whose interests will be served by a single transport policy ? The interests of multinationals in Europe who want to flood market quickly with low cost products is certainly very different from the interest of the people who, as it is happening in Portugal, see rail lines closed, and a massive increase in transport costs to comply with IMF and European Union recovery programme.
