The USS Peleliu (LHA-5) is a Tarawa-class amphibious assault ship of the United States Navy, named for the Battle of Peleliu of World War II. Entering service in 1980, she has been deployed to the Persian Gulf on several occasions, performed an evacuation of U.S. Naval Base Subic Bay following the eruption of Mount Pinatubo, operated with the INTERFET peacekeeping taskforce, participated in Pacific Partnership deployments, and provided assistance following the massive floods in Pakistan in 2010. She is scheduled for decommissioning on 31 March 2015 and to be later operationally replaced by one of the new America-class amphibious assault ships that are in planned production.[1]
Design and construction[edit]
The Peleliu was originally going to be named the USS Khe Sanh, and then the USS Da Nang. The keel of the Peleliu was laid down in 1976 at the Litton Industries Ingalls Shipbuilding company in Pascagoula, Mississippi. She was launched on 25 November 1978, sponsored by Peggy Hayward, the wife of the Chief of Naval Operations at that time, Admiral Thomas B. Hayward. The Peleliu was commissioned on 3 May 1980, with Captain T. P. Scott in command.
Operational history[edit]
The Peleliu immediately steamed southwards, and then she transited the Panama Canal to the Pacific Ocean. She crossed the Equator for the first time on 27 May 1980, setting a new record for time between an American warship's commissioning and her crossing over into the Southern Hemisphere. Next, the Peleliu steamed to the seaport of Long Beach, California.
Following the 17 October 1989 San Francisco earthquake, LHA-5 Peleliu was one of the 24 U.S. Navy and Military Sealift Command ships that rendered assistance. Peleliu provided shelter for 300 victims and provided helicopter support.[2]
Peleliu deployed again to the Western Pacific in January 1990. The ship, along with her Amphibious Readiness Group (ARG), participated in multinational exercises including Exercise Team Spirit with forces from the Republic of Korea, and Exercise Cobra Gold, in Thailand. Peleliu returned home to Naval Station Long Beach in July and later that summer entered the shipyard for an availability period that was scheduled to last nearly a year. The U.S. response to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in August 1990 curtailed the shipyard availability and forced Peleliu into an accelerated schedule of pre-deployment training, but she did not deploy for Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm. She eventually departed Long Beach in May, 1991, in support of ongoing U.S. operations in the Middle East. In June 1991, while en route to the Persian Gulf, the Peleliu was diverted from a scheduled port call in Hong Kong to the Philippines, where she participated in the evacuation of the Americans from the U.S. Naval Base Subic Bay following the volcanic eruption of Mount Pinatubo. This evacuation included taking most of the patients from the maternity ward at the Subic Bay naval hospital, and hence there were several births on board the Peleliu. This eruption was one of the largest eruptions of the past 100 years and covered a large region of the Philippines in volcanic ash and caused extensive damage to American military bases in the area, including Naval Station Subic Bay, Naval Air Station Cubi Point, and Clark Air Force Base.
On returning to her home port at Long Beach Naval Shipyard, the Peleliu went through an extensive shipyard rehabilitation, including time in the dry dock. She was again underway by May 1992 and going through workups and inspections for her next WESTPAC deployment on 21 January 1994. She changed home ports to Naval Station, San Diego during this time period as well. On deploying with members of the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit, and following stops in Pearl Harbor and Singapore, she steamed for Mogadishu, Somalia to participate in Operation Continue Hope and Operation Quick Draw. VIP visits included Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff General John Shalikashvili, COMPHIBGRU THREE, Rear Admiral James B. Perkins III, and CJTF Major General Thomas M. Montgomery, U.S. Army. Brig. General Vercauteren, USMC, visited with his deployed Marines as well. While off the coast of Mombasa, she participated in Operation Distant Runner at the border of Rwanda and Burundi. Medical and Dental Civic Action Programs(MEDCAP, DENCAP) were performed in the villages of Kipini and Witu, Kenya, provid medical and dental services to local civilians. Leaving Somalia on 25 March 1994, she steamed to Perth, Australia for a much deserved port visit. On 30 June 1994, Peleliu slowed her pace home and along with ship's company, Marines of 2nd Battalion 5th Marines, paused to honor the fallen off the coast of her name sake Peleliu, where 50 years earlier the Marines of the 1st Marine Division suffered 6,526 casualties with 1,256 killed in action against 10,138 Japanese defenders of which very few were taken alive in the Battle of Peleliu.[3]
The Peleliu was deployed to East Timor as part of the Australian-led INTERFET peacekeeping task force from 26 October to 27 November 1999.[4]
The Peleliu departed from San Diego in August 2001 with the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit on board for a routine six-month deployment in the Western Pacific. She was in the port of Darwin, Australia during the September 11 attacks. Following those attacks, the Peleliu was sent to the North Arabian Sea and, on 26 November 2001, she took the first U.S. Marines to Afghanistan as part of Operation Enduring Freedom. After the American Taliban John Walker Lindh was captured in Afghanistan, he was sent to the Peleliu on 14 December 2001. There he was interrogated by a U.S. Marine Corps intelligence team. While he was on board the Peleliu, Lindh signed confessions and he told his interrogators that he was not merely a member of the Taliban, but a full member of Al Qaeda.
Lindh received surgery by the senior surgeon of the Peleliu to remove a bullet in his leg, and he was also treated for frostbite on his toes.[5]
On 1 January 2004, a hostile boat was intercepted by warships at sea in the Indian Ocean, and 15 people were detained. An estimated 2,800 pounds (1,300 kg) of hashish was seized by American and Australian warships after the interception of the boat in the North Arabian Sea.[6]
The Peleliu steamed to support of the Pacific Partnership mission from 23 May through 20 September 2007. This mission included medical, dental, construction, and other humanitarian assistance programs on shore and afloat in the Philippines, Vietnam, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and the Marshall Islands. The medical personnel on board the Peleliu included teams from the U.S. Navy and ten other countries, and also from three private assistance organizations.
In 2008, the Peleliu was sent to the Indian Ocean to support Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom, and antipiracy operations. On 10 August 2008, the Peleliu responded to a distress call from a merchant ship, the Gem of Kilakari, that was being attacked by armed pirates in the Gulf of Aden. That pirate attack was put to an end with no injuries.[7]
In August 2010, the Peleliu was sent to Port of Karachi, Pakistan, to use 19 of her helicopters for rescues during the massive floods in southern Pakistan, which were the worst one in the (very long) recorded history of Pakistan.[8][9] During this deployment, Captain David Schnell, the commanding officer of the Peleliu, was relieved of his command and reassigned for being "unduly familiar" with several crewmembers.
Captain Mark E. Cedrun, the chief of staff for Expeditionary Strike Group 3, replaced Captain Schnell as the commanding officer of the Peleliu.[10]
On 24 November 2010, the Peleliu returned full circle and she was berthed in the Subic Bay Freeport Zone on her first visit there since the evacuation by the Navy in 1991. That deployment also included port visits to: Naval Base Guam, Apra Harbor, Guam; Darwin, Australia; Dubai, UAE; Phuket, Thailand; and Pearl Harbor, Hawai'i before returning to its home port in San Diego, California on 18 Dec 2010.[11]
On 17 September 2012, Peleliu deployed to the C5F AOR under the command of Captain James T. Cox.[12]
On 14 May 2013, Peleliu returned to its homeport after an eight month deployment,[13] accompanied by the USS Green Bay (LPD-20) and the USS Rushmore (LSD-47). It is scheduled to be decommissioned in 2015.[14]
Ship's Coat of Arms[edit]
The stars across the top of the shield represent the eight Medal of Honor recipients from the Battle of Peleliu Island in 1944. Centered is the large Roman numeral "V" which represents the hull number of the ship, LHA-5. The four-point star in the "V" identifies the four functions of the landing force, and sustain their operations ashore. In the lower left-hand side of the shield is a ring which by tradition of heraldry, symbolizes the fifth born. The 1st Marine Division emblem is the constellation Southern Cross with the numeral '1' superimposed.
Retired Navy Chief DSC William J. Cunningham, a plankowner, was the primary designer of the Ship's Coat of Arms contributing all design work except the four-point star during pre-com in 1979.

On 14 December 2001, Lindh was taken from Camp Rhino to the USS Peleliu where he received the following treatment: 12 days after his US capture in Afghanistan, he was operated on by the Peleliu's senior surgeon to remove the bullet lodged in his leg; he received daily medical treatment for the bullet wound as well as mild frostbite on his toes; he received various forms of medication including Motrin and Keflex (an antibiotic). He and his fellow detainees were advised five times per day as to the time for prayer and the brig supervisor called up to the deck to ascertain the location of Mecca so that he could advise the detainees in which direction to pray. He and his fellow detainees were provided Quorans to facilitate their prayers. He was permitted to shower twice a week and to wash his feet every day. He was given meals and unlimited water, was permitted to talk with his fellow detainees; and he was repeatedly queried by Peleliu personnel whether there was anything else he needed.

Over at Bits, the Business and Technology Blog at The New York Times, Nick Bilton blogged about his dilemma with throwing out books. He is moving across the country for a new job in San Francisco, and he wondered about whether he should spend money on moving all of his books or not. He points out that he has a big collection, for he is a voracious reader, but switched a few years ago to an e-reader. Now he does most of his reading electronically.
I know the feeling: I've done plenty of moving, and ever since I got to graduate school I've amassed even more books. However, I didn't really think about my book collection when I moved from New York State to Kansas City; I had just given birth and really just wanted to pack up the whole apartment and go. It was when we moved into our latest apartment, just across the street from our other apartment, that I sat down and thought about what books I wanted to keep and what books I wanted to send off. It was a practical issue: I didn't have space, and I didn't want to pack books that I had no interest in or that were falling apart. That may make me a #badgradstudent or a #badenglishmajor, but I'll live. (We ended up giving the books to our local public library, in case you're wondering what to do in a situation like this.)
Bilton's post made me think about the emotional attachment we develop to books. He thought about his book collection in practical terms: do I want to spend money on this? Should I have to bring books that are tattered, falling apart? Nothing wrong there. But the conversations he had with his co-workers shows how we attribute more to books than what we think. The reaction of one of his editors illustrates this: "You have to take your books with you! I mean, they are books. They are so important!"
Those of us whose careers/lives revolve around books have heard this before…possibly it's your best friend from college or the little voice inside my head. (For me, it's the little voice inside my head. It's also the same little voice that reminds me that I should be working on my dissertation. Coincidence?) My theory is that books are not just important to have–which they are– but they also give the owner a kind of prestige. We are our books. We are our bookcases. Bookcases not only house but display our collections. Hey, we are allowed to be proud of our collections. It's okay. But I think this emotional attachment we have to our books translates into books becoming a part of our identity–particularly for academics, the lot I'm more familiar with. Just think of the phrase "well-read." Bookcases are the physical evidence that we are well-read. So giving away your books translates into not appreciating books.
This spills over to the e-reader/print book war: there's a stereotype going around that if you own an e-reader then you must not like books–at least not print books. Ask any bookworm if they own an e-reader, and you will either get an enthusiastic explanation about how it makes their lives a little easier or you'll get a groan and an explanation about how e-readers are just plain evil. Bilton's post made me realize that the war is not because books are important to society, but because the physical book is important; we like to be seen with our books, we like to show our collections. It's not about what I know, but the evidence of what I know: my books. (Never mind that there are plenty of books I've read, I own, and I don't remember. But The Millions has that covered.) But how many of us read the newspaper online, for example?
I own an e-reader, and for the longest I felt a little weird about it. Almost guilty. After all, I love reading and I take pride in my bookcase. (Wanna know what's nerdy? If you have two bookcases, one for fiction and one for non-fiction/literary and cultural criticism. Yup, that's me.) I felt I shouldn't have invested in the evil device. I would tell people again and again that I bought it so I could read journal articles for my dissertation on it and nothing else. And for a while that's what I did. But then I noticed it wasn't easy to take notes on the contraption. I also started reading *gasp!* newspaper/online articles and books on it.
The more I think about it, the more I realize that what we should defend is the text, not simply the print form. It's okay if you need to give away your books. It's also okay if you buy an e-reader. I still buy print books although I own an e-reader; I even splurge on hardcovers from time to time. I still read both the print kind and the electronic kind. As long as we don't give up on reading, and don't give up on buying texts (in whatever shape or form they might come in)…writers have to eat, you know.

Snomobiler Goes Through the Ice on Long Lake Channel
Submitted: 01/01/2013
Three Lakes
- Some thin ice made for a scary day for a snomobiler in Three Lakes.
A man went through the ice on the Long Lake channel in Three Lakes this morning before ten.
He was with a group of snomobilers from the Chicago Area. They were riding on an unmarked path. The group rented snomobiles from Watercraft Sales, and employees say the Long Lake channel isn't safe to ride on for most of the winter. The Oneida County dive team and air boat were called in, but the snomobiler was able to get out of the water by himself. He's expected to be ok.

FIRST!!! This is just another reason why the iPhone is a far better phone.

because they bought an app from the market.. removed it from the market.. and then made it the only real selling point of their new over priced phone???
lol. seems like another reason iOS users need a wake up call to me.

So thats why apple spent an extra 4 months till they realed an already of of date phone, they had to right that very long list of commands, i thought siri "understood" you. why is apple trys to make everything out as being amazing or magical when its really not, the only thing siri's got over other voice assistants is that its got more commands, but that will soon change. im sorry aplle vut this isnt exacly impressive!
4. Cyd07 (Posts: 83; Member since: 03 Oct 2011)
Maybe. We must wait to know it, but sure we can simulate artificial intelligence by increasing dramatically the number of commands (and allow to respond to near commands).
But maybe Siri has developped something more. Artifical intelligence is on stage since a long time now, maybe this uses some developments in the area.
PS : well, in fact we won't know. Never. It's Apple, they will never say if it is artificial intelligence or not. But whatever we think about Apple, semantic web is the future. Wolfram Alpha is one of several semantic search engines in developement (one of the most advanced I heard). But it would be surprising if Google had nothing at work in the same area. When it will be ready, Google will be able to integrate the same kind of feature as Siri in Android --> it is the same algorythms that interpret your requests. Maybe Microsoft has something like that too, for the next gen of Bing (in some years , ok).
So, if Apple make the semantic web (indirectly) popular, I think it's a good thing, since the efforts will concentrate much on this.

They had 2 years actually, since when they bought the App.
5. jacko (unregistered)
yet android had similar thing since early 2010
6. roldefol (Posts: 3181; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
Yeah, but they forgot to give it a trendy name.
7. Hallucinator (Posts: 344; Member since: 24 May 2010)
They also forgot to have it work anywhere near as well as Siri.
10. remixfa (Posts: 14163; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
just like i said. siri is nothing but regular voice commands that have the ability to say a command more than one way. Its not an "AI" like some weirdos want to believe. More complicated than android's voice commands? Sure, but it better be since android's have been out for nearly 2 years. We call that evolution, not revolution.
The sarcastic responses are funny and fun to show off, but that is a novelty that will wear thin after a while.

Being an Android user since it inception, I must say that this is a great add on for Apple products. I am not impressed withe new Iphone hardware and specs, but this feature of the phone is very impressive and good for them....now I am just going to wait until google or some other dev trumps it.

User Profile question
I have a profile on my computer called Woody. I have moved my "My Documents" folder in the Woody profile to C:\data. When I did this it automatically named it "C:\My Documents". But this is not what I wanted so in the General tab for that folder I changed it from "My Documents" to "Data". I have done this on a couple of other windows generated sub folders for User Profile Woody.
Is there a way to get a list of the new locations and their names for these moved folder? I can remember now but later I may not be able to remember. I think there may be some sort of system variable that will tell me but if there is, I don't know what it is.

About the Trust
HPB Biography
Centenary Edition, Deity, Cosmos & Man, by Geoffrey Farthing
Exploring Theosophy
c) Theosophy, the 'Wisdom Religion' - What Theosophy Is
Geoffrey Farthing's publications
Our web site contains information about Theosophy, the ageless Ancient Wisdom, as contained in the writings of Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831 - 1891) and her Teachers. The site contains a comprehensive collection of the writings of Geoffrey Farthing (1909-2004), a co-founder of the Trust, and one of the foremost exponents of Blavatsky-Theosophy in recent times.
What is Theosophy? article
The Writings of H. P. Blavatsky article
Geoffrey Farthing was concerned that the original point and purpose of the Theosophical Society had been lost in the years that followed the death of H.P. Blavatsky, and that a significant part of the substance and detail of the teachings, as given out by H.P. Blavatsky and others,had become distorted. Geoffrey Farthing's writings primarily aim to accurately present Blavatsky's work in a form suited to the modern reader, and in addition, a significant number of articles and letters take a critical, and sometimes controversial, look at the Society itself. In 1969 Geoffrey wrote 'What is the Theosophical Society?' (go to text) and followed this by an analysis of Theosophy itself (go to text).
Theosophy is a relatively recent name for the Ancient Wisdom known from time immemorial. It is variously known as the Wisdom Religion, the Ancient Wisdom, Esotericism, Occultism and is included in the Western Mystery Tradition. It was kept secret to preserve it from distortion, adulteration and misuse but as much of it as was thought wise was made public by two of the Masters, for the first time, at the end of the 19th century. This was mainly through the writings of H.P. Blavatsky - something of how this was done is told in 'A Trilogy' (go to text).
The expressed purpose behind this release of information was the eradication of superstitious ignorance and crass materialism, and the earnest desire to establish a Universal Brotherhood of Mankind on a truly spiritual basis.
H.P. Blavatsky was a remarkable woman; one of the most gifted and fascinating of modern times. Destined for a solitary path, she left husband and homeland to travel the world in search of occult knowledge, a quest which ultimately took her to the great Mahatmas and the Ancient wisdom of the East. Her odyssey was to bring her enlightenment and enemies, fame and notoriety; devotion and denouncement ... but it also resulted in some of the greatest occult classics ever written, and the founding of the modern Theosophical Society.

72andSunny Waxes Nostalgic in New Spots for Samsung Galaxy Gear
72andSunny pays homage to sci-fi and television history in their new campaign for Samsung Galaxy Gear.
The spot "Evolution" traces the evolution of wristwatch communication, from Dick Tracy and Star Trek to Inspector Gadget and even Predator. The spot ends with the text "After All These Years It's Finally Real" before introducing Samsung's latest product. It's a fun way to highlight the evolution of modern technology and say "The future is now" while making Galaxy Gear seem pretty cool.
A second spot, "A Long Time Coming" pays similar homage, showing characters talking into their wrist pieces in rapid succession. It's not quite as strong as "Evolution" and perhaps more than a touch too similar to the iPhone's "Hello" spot, even if it does touch some similar bases.
The Samsung Galaxy Gear is available now for the futuristic price of $299. Knight Rider not included. Check out the second spot and "Evolution" credits after the jump.

Feature available since Lotus Notes version 8.0
Feeds are often seen as something for the geeks and power users (or the geeky power users), but they're actually simple to set up and use, and a great way to get a summary of information. Wikipedia describes feeds as "used to publish frequently updated works – such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video – in a standardized format". In other words, a summary of a web site that you're following.
The most commonly-encountered type of feed is RSS, which stands for 'Really Simple Syndication' or 'Rich Site Summary', depending on whose definition you believe – actually both are valid. There's also another feed type, Atom, which for the purposes of this article really achieves the same thing. In many web sites you'll see the orange RSS icon, and if you're using a browser such as Firefox or Safari you'll see an indicator in the address bar, like so:
Lotus Notes provides it's own feed reader, sitting in the sidebar (see below, click to see a larger image). Okay, this is not the most functional feed reader available, but it has a couple of advantages… it's easy to use, and it sits in the sidebar so it's easily available within your collaboration client. Oh, one more thing… although the sources are on web sites somewhere, the summaries downloaded to the feed reader will be available when you're off-line.
But how can you get your feeds into it?
One option is for your Notes administrators to set up a standard set of feeds, and then you can click on the 'Subscribe to Preset Feeds' button. Easy. But chances are you'll want your own collection.
The first option is to manually add a new subscription – let's use notesiscool.com as an example. The URL of the feed is http://www.notesiscool.com/feed – press the first button (Subscribe to Feed) and add the URL to the dialog box. Press GO and the feed address will be verified – you can then set the options for name, updates and retention, and press OK.
You can also add a feed via drag and drop. You could use that specific feed address, or in many cases the process will work out if there's a feed available from the home page. From either the Notes browser or an external browser, highlight the URL, drag it to the Notes feed reader and drop. If you use http://www.notesiscool.com you'll see that it has both RSS and Atom feeds available:
Again, set the options and press okay. notesiscool.com articles will now show up in the feed reader.
Advanced topic – OPML… which stands for Outline Processor Markup Language. If you're already using a feed reader, you may be able to export your current selections of feeds to an OPML file. But how do you then get this set of feeds into Notes? Look for a file in c:notesframeworkrcpdeployextras (or the Mac or Linux equivalent) named presetfeeds.opml – this is the file that Notes will import when you select the 'Subscribe to Preset Feeds' option. So, take your new file, rename it to presetfeeds.opml, drop it into the extras folder, and press the 'Subscribe to Preset Feeds' button.

Combine serialized form ajax post data with an arbitrary object using jQuery
Sometimes when you do an ajax form post in jQuery, you need to merge another object into your post data. The idea behind this solution is to serialize the existing form data using jQuery's $().serialize method. Then we use the $.param() utility method to create a serialized version of any javascript object or array. Simply concatenate the two and you are off to the races.
var $form = $(form); var data = { 'foo' : 'bar' }; data = $form.serialize() + '&' + $.param(data); $.ajax({ 'type' : 'POST', 'dataType' : 'json', 'url' : $form.attr('action'), 'data': data, 'success': function(data) { //do something } });
A downside to this approach is the possibility of duplicated key names in your serialized string. Concatenating the two serialize strings won't catch that. In that case you may be better off turning the form elements into an object and merging them using $.extend(). Check out this post on converting a query string into a javascript object.
Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks
data = $form.serialize() + "&foo=bar";
works fine as well
I used form.serialize() and the url length is more than the url`s limit as my form has lot of elements. Hence i could not process the url. this issue happens only in the form which has more elements. Is there a solution for this? Please suggest.
One word: Awesome.
I was looking for this and it works as expected!
Big thank you and keep posting interesting code pieces like this.
All the best,
Glad it helped! Cheers
Thanks! was taking too long to figure this out…

Israel indicts more Palestinian terror cells
Hamas' Ismail Haniyeh said all options are on the table to secure the release of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. Hamas forces imposed a fishing ban in Gaza for "security reasons." Former Prime Minister Fayyad called for general elections. The Shin Bet revealed that a terrorist released in the Gilad Shalit exchange was involved in plotting a terror attack in the West Bank.
Three people, allegedly members of Hamas' al Qassam Brigades, escaped from a prison in the Gaza Strip. Turkey became the first country to have an ambassador recognized by Palestine. President Abbas traveled to Kuwait to inaugurate Palestine's embassy in the Arab state.

Despite pressure from Western nations, including the US, President Abbas accepted the resignation of Prime Minister Fayyad. The gates of a Christian school in the Gaza Strip were set on fire by unidentified arsonists.
Hamas is preparing to arrest Gaza residents for 'collaboration with Israel.' Human Rights Watch slammed Hamas for failing to investigate the November deaths of a number of alleged spies in Gaza. Pressure from European countries and the US postponed a meeting between Prime Minister Fayyad and President Abbas; Fayyad was expected to resign during the meeting.
Attempts to abduct Israeli soldiers in West Bank on the rise
Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan pushed back plans to visit the Gaza Strip.

FILE - In this Sept. 15, 2011 file photo, director John Singleton arrives at the premiere of "Abduction" in Los Angeles.(AP Photo/Matt Sayles, file)
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Director John Singleton and Paramount Pictures Corp. have settled a lawsuit over his claim that the studio broke an agreement to let him produce two films in exchange for the rights to distribute the Oscar-nominated movie "Hustle & Flow."
Court records show the deal was reached late Thursday in Los Angeles, just days before a trial was scheduled to begin.
Attorneys for Singleton and Paramount said the settlement terms are confidential, but the matter was amicably resolved.
Singleton produced "Hustle & Flow" and claimed he agreed to work with Paramount on distribution rights because of the opportunity to make two films for the studio.
A judge had previously ruled Singleton was not entitled to re-acquire rights to 2005's "Hustle & Flow," which earned a best actor nomination for Terrence Howard and won for best song.

I'm not surprised with this as Government is one of, if noit the most frequent, violator of human rights in the province. I worked for government since 1975 until last year and currently have an investigation on going through human rights. Government's human rights compliance is reprehensible.

This is actually very good. This will force the HRC to focus on actual violations of the code and not take up every little grievance. As I am sure you are all aware anyone caught on the wrong side of the HRC has to pay out of their own pocket.

This is a bad thing - I agree that some human rights commissions have taken up frivolous cases now and then, and at times the complaints have even endangered freedom of speech. But we still a strong human rights commission - so few of our laws are actually enforced nowadays, why should we tolerate their further erosion?

In 1983, Edward Tufte wrote in his classic book The Visual Display of Quantitative Information:
"Modern day graphics can do much more than simply substitute for small statistical tables. At their best, graphics are instruments for reasoning about quantitative information. Often the most effective way to describe, explore, and summarize a set of numbers…is to look at those numbers. Furthermore, of all methods for analyzing and communicating statistical information, well-designed data graphics are usually the simplest and at the same time the most powerful."

In a new study, "The Market for Regional Transport Aircraft",
Forecast International projects that 4,016 regional aircraft,
valued at some $123 billion, will be produced from 2010 through
2019. The forecast by the Connecticut-based market research firm
includes both regional jets and regional turboprops, with jets
accounting for about 64 percent of the total.
The Forecast International projections indicate that will
be the leaders among regional aircraft manufacturers during the
10-year forecast period. Bombardier's product line includes both
jet-powered and turboprop-powered aircraft, while Embraer currently
specializes in jets and ATR builds turboprops exclusively.
The top end of the regional aircraft market is seeing an influx
of new models. Bombardier is developing the CSeries, a new family
of 100-145 seat aircraft that transcends the boundary between the
regional jet market and the large airliner market. The CSeries
competes against large regional jets from Embraer and others, and
also against narrowbody airliners such as the Airbus A319 and the
Boeing 737-700.
C110 Artist's Rendering
According to Forecast International senior aerospace analyst
Raymond Jaworowski, "The challenge from the CSeries has become a
prime consideration for Airbus and Boeing as they make development
decisions regarding their narrowbody families."
Embraer is well-positioned in the 70-125 seat market with its
E-Jets series regional jets, and has been pondering future
development strategy. Among the options being considered by the
Brazilian company are a re-engining of the E-Jets family and/or a
larger, all-new aircraft family. The latter would compete in the
market above 125 seats, taking on Bombardier's CSeries.
Embraer E-Jet
A number of companies are looking to break into the regional
aircraft market, and are developing new aircraft that compete for
sales in the top segment of the market. These include the Chinese
firm Comac with its ARJ21 regional jet, the Japanese company
Mitsubishi with the Mitsubishi Regional Jet (MRJ), and the Russian
firm Sukhoi Civil Aircraft with the Superjet 100.
Sukhoi Superjet 100
All of this activity is taking place against a backdrop of a
changing regional airline industry. Regional airlines were hit hard
in the 2008-2009 airline market slump. A recovery is now under way,
but could easily stall should the general economy remain sluggish
or drop back into recession. Meanwhile, many mainline network
airlines are looking to significantly redefine their relationship
to the regional airlines that operate feeder services into their
networks. Feeder operations are the core business for many regional
carriers. The majors want to alter, or even scrap altogether, the
fixed-fee-per-departure arrangements that have traditionally
defined the major/regional partnership. Increasingly, regionals are
being asked to assume much of the risk, and much of the cost, of
feeder operations.

Sagrada Familia
It's Barcelona's most striking landmark, and Gaudi's unfinished masterpiece; an essential part of any visit to the city. It was the famous artist's last big project and he continued working with the builders until his death in 1926. Work is moving at a fast pace now, although Gaudi might not have approved of some of the modern touches being added today. Don't be put off by the steep entry prices: you're only getting a tiny part of the experience by seeing the outside of the building. It's a good idea to arrive early as the basilica gets incredibly busy by 10am.
