CHICAGO - United Airlines lost its third and final try for a government loan guarantee Monday when a federal board rejected its latest bid and insisted the bankrupt carrier can survive without one.
The announcement by the Air Transportation Stabilization Board, unanimously affirming its June 17 decision despite the reduced request United submitted last week, forces the airline to seek new financing and throws the outcome of its 1 1 /2-year-old bankruptcy makeover into doubt.
It also is likely to delay United's emergence from Chapter 11 into next year as the company looks for ways to further trim a cost structure that has kept it unprofitable since 2000.
Unions representing United's 62,500 employees, faced with the prospect of more painful concessions on top of huge wage and benefit cutbacks already made, denounced the government decision and publicly urged the airline to look elsewhere besides the work force for savings.
The company said it was in talks with lenders as it works to craft an alternative way out of bankruptcy.
Monday's setback came in the form of a three-paragraph letter from the federal board to United chief financial officer Jake Brace.
Just six days after United reduced the amount of the loan guarantee sought to $1.1 billion from $1.6 billion, the panel said its decision stands.
The board said it carefully considered the additional financial information provided by United but concluded again that a loan guarantee wasn't necessary to ensure the viability of the nation's aviation system, a requirement for receiving federal assistance.
It said it would not entertain any other United attempts to secure government backing.
The board again noted that the airline had taken positive steps to pare costs and strengthen its competitive standing. But the panel once again said that credit markets have improved since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, meaning the company has a chance of getting the financing it needs without federal assistance.
United said that while it disagreed with the decision. Company executives were tight-lipped about the options they are pursuing.

It took about a week to receive the table and the box and contents were perfect. No punctures in the box and no damage to the contents. The table was totally assembled, except for bolting the 4 legs on and that took no time at all. This is a great table for a small area in the kitchen. The two leafs give the table alot of flexibility and are easy to raise and lower. The table is very sturdy without being too bulky. Chairs that are more than 21 inches wide at the front will be a tight fit. We bought two chairs from overstock that are 18 inches wide and that leaves about 4 inches clearance. The fit and finish of the table is excellent.. Would buy it again!!
After only 2 weeks, the extension "locks" broke and I cannot open the leaves up on each side until I install some sort of lock to keep it in place and support it. This was mentioned on Overstock in previous reviews and held true. Disappointed in the qualtiy.
i tried to use this table for eating and it is not sturdy enough to even lean on. i cannot afford to buy another table and have to eat on my lap. overstock should have mention it is not a table you can use daily because it is not strong enough. i won't buy another item from overstock because i cannot trust their descriptions of their items.
Great size for a small space. Nice looking. Leaves are not supported well and sag slightly when extended. In addition, our table was missing a support for one of the leaves.
The table looks good and fits the space nicely - however, one of the leaves doesn't go straight out when extended, but rather dips a bit on the end - and you don't want to put a plate on that without fortifying it from underneath somehow (gotta figure that out before I have company over). Easy to assemble, I will keep it, but need to make sure that leaf is strong enough to support dinner before I do.
It's not a bad little table. It came promptly, and it was easy to assemble. But the leaves aren't very sturdy, I worry when I lean my elbows on the table, and one is not flush with the table and it's not even, sitting a bit higher than the table. But for just over 100 bucks for a table to set in my kitchen, it's fine for now. Thought I would've looked for another had I known how it would turn out.
Table arrived damaged and had to replace hinges for the drop leaves only to find out it came with only two legs. No number to call for customer service. Did live chat online and was promised that someone would get back with me within two days. Two days have passed and no contact! Very frustrated and disappointed in the non existent customer service!
The drop leafs feel a little weak when a heavy person leans on them. But for the money this is an excellent table and value.
No one should expect a sturdy well built table for this price, but beware this table really isn't worth the asking price. It is listed as rubber wood. Who knows what rubber wood is but it's not wood at all. It is more like compressed cardboard, and once the very thin veneer on the outside is compromised it almost crumbles apart. The table I received was packaged very well so there should have been no issues, but 4 of the 6 hinges were completely broken off exposing the so called rubber wood. Based on the way this was packaged I can only guess it was broken outside the box likely sold to someone who broke it and returned it, and it was shipped to me without anyone looking at it. If this is the best you can afford you have to do what you have to do, but don't expect it to stand up to much wear and tear.

The Death of Ivan Ilyich & Other Stories
A new translation of 11 short works by Tolstoy.
Translators are cooks trying to follow recipes to the letter, but by necessity they have to use the ingredients and equipment they've got at home. They make do and hope the approximations taste good. The American/Russian husband/wife team Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky are known for their translations of the Russian classics, and we should at least be grateful that their productions remind us to read or reread some of the best literature in the world. Learn Russian if you can (it's taken me four years of hard labor to be lousy at it), or accept with gratitude what Pevear and Volokhonsky serve you.
Are their translations obviously better than all the others? No. Translation is an art of incremental details, and comparing phrases and sentences and passages, it's possible to see how an earlier translator, Rosemary Edmonds, for example, was better with this particular phrasing and this pair is better with that one.
In any case, as I was merrily reading along in The Death of Ivan Ilyich & Other Stories translated by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, I opened my Russsian-language editions of Tolstoy and compared what I made of particular lines with Pevear and Volokhonsky's take, and if mine were sometimes livelier, theirs were invariably correct, though not absolutely consistent in vocabulary and tenses. (What I learned from learning Russian is that the translations I grew up on convey 95 percent of what's there. What's missing is what's necessarily missing in any language transfer – the sound, the rhythm, the tumble and play of words and phrases.)

So what WAS nursing like in the "good old days"? - page 3
Ever since I was in nursing school a few years ago all I heard was how much nusing has changed since the 60's/70's/80's. My only frame of refrence for this time period is Dixie from EMERGENCY! (LOL) I know that nurses did a lot... Read More
- 2Jan 26, '04 by Ruby Vee[QUOTE]Originally posted by findingmywayRN
[B]It is amazing to read all of your experiences! Thanks for sharing them. I can't believe how different things were - COUNTING the drips on all the IV's??? NO GLOVES???? I can't imagine life before universal precautions. Were they still strict with handwashing proceedures? I can't believe doctors got away with throwing things at the nurses. And mercury thermometers? OMG!
To think that anyone with more than basic trappings (IV, Foley, etc.) would require intensive care is hard to imagine. And to think multisystem organ failure is a new phenomenon....Nowadays the basic medsurg floor is like an ICU.
I worked in Boston in 1978. I had fifteen patients in a ward and one other person to help me. If I was lucky and it was day shift, that other person was an LPN rather than an aide, and if I was even luckier, that person had worked in the hospital at least one other shift. Don't laugh -- many of them were agency and hadn't. Many nights the NA spent the night sleeping in the break room, and if you woke them up and asked them to do something, they complained that you were harassing them.
Since I worked on a heme onc floor, each patient had Ticarcillin, Tobramycin, Amphotercin, and transfusions. Because we did bone marrow transplants, some of the transfusions were for WBCs or incompatible blood. (That one was always fun -- standing in the patient's room taking VS every five minutes while the rest of your patients were on auto pilot.) We had to wash our hands for one full minute for each transplant patient, and your hands were raw and bleeding!
We had mercury spygmos and mercury thermometers, and yes, I did play with the mercury when they broke. I remember giving paraldehyde to the ETOHers -- you had to get them to drink it fast before it disintigrated the cup it was in! Since patients really didn't want to take that stuff, you often had to chase them down and beg them to take it. In my hospital, nurses didn't write nursing notes because (and I'm quoting my manager here) "nurses don't have anything to say anyway." (Yes, I soap noted on every one of those 15 patients every shift -- and did not get paid OT to do it!)
Doctors screamed, cursed, called you names, threw things and attempted to get you fired if they didn't like something you said or did. (I once told a surgeon I went to school in Oshkosh. That was a huge mistake because in Boston, they had this saying that "I had to go all the way to east Oshkosh to find a bedpan," or whatever. The surgeon thought I was being a smartass and tried to have me fired.) Once a neuro-surgeon chased my preceptor down the hall with a (full) bedpan, attempting to throw it at her. Another time, an OB decked a nurse and when her manager stood up for her, they were both fired. When a doctor entered the unit, you were supposed to stand up and offer him your chair, and make sure he had a clean ashtray for his cigarette.
I remember it was a point of pride NOT to use exam gloves for anything except giving a suppository. Nursing before AIDS. (I remember sex before AIDS, too!) All in all, I'd rather work now.
- 0Jan 26, '04 by Keysnurse2008I can remember utilizing shaving creme as an antiseptic on new incisions........and mixing betadine and sugar to cram in decub's ...I can remember when a nurse was respected and ....boy.....that was a long time ago wasn't it?
- 0Feb 1, '04 by salwalwolBoy, does that bring back memories! I graduated from a diploma program in the early 70's.
Right before everything became disposable. We had to do a sint in central supply and learned how to wrap and sterlize all the equipment. Everything was "recycled." We had to work in all the different depts (kitchen, lab, xray, pharm etc.) in the hospital. My senior year a severe snow storm kept the reg staff from coming in. So the senior class basically staffed the hosp. We lived on the hosp grounds. A real learning experience! We were unpaid labor. If you worked the night shift you were still expected to be in class that morning! Being woke up in the middle of the night when you were on OB rotation and were on call for deliveries.
Things have changed so much.
- 1Feb 1, '04 by RNPATLOriginally posted by findingmywayRN
But seriously, what has made nursing so different today? How sick were the patinets, what was the nurse to patinet ratios? How was documentation? Did you really have time to relate/get to know to your patients? How did nurses and doctors relate to each other?
As patients began to discharge sooner and the advent of managed care, the hosptial became the place where really only the sickest of the sick went or patients who needed surgical intervention. This translated to big changes on the unit. I remember when patients would come to the hospital for cataract surgery and as nurses, we would care for them for 3 days before they would discharge. That is unheard of today. A gallbladder .... they were in for a week or longer.
During this time, nurses had the opportunity to develop relationships with the patient and most times, with the family. There was not the "in" and "out" on the units that we see today. Yes, we received admissions, but most of the time, it was an organized transition. Today, it is full of chaos and dis-organization .... patients moving all around the hospital like a bunch of crazy people.
Positive things have also happened over the years, advancing technologies have made diagnostics really impressive. Advances with cardiac and heart disease (i.e. stents, drug eluding stents, etc.). Another thing that has changed, from my view, is everything today is disposable. When I was a new nurse, we actually autoclaved many of the trays and supplies we used daily. I remember using mercury thermometers. Geeze, am I dating myself (I am really only 39, but graduated from nursing school when I was 20).
Anyway, there have been many changes, but most have been for the positive. Physician relationships have really changed. I remember the charge nurse giving up her seat when the attending came to the floor, even though there were several chairs available. That would not happen today. Nurses have gained some ground with physicians .... I think the new docs are getting the message. The older docs still have many of the same attitiudes that I have dealth with over my 20 years in nursing.
Anyway, sorry for the long response, but it brings back memories to think about all the changes that have taken place since I have been a nurse. I am sure older nurses could tell more tales.
- 1Feb 1, '04 by ernurse2244Graduate 1975 here. Let's see...mercury BP's and thermometers. Played with the mercury if either broke. Counted drops for IV's. Started a new IV site each day with a butterfly needle every morning, discontinued after 8 hours. On evening shift were expected to take the BP of every visitor in the room. Cholecystectomies, hysterectomies and the rare C-section stayed 10 days. Only exam gloves were in the treatment rooms for the docs to use. Patient's families brought us LOTS of food. First T'giving I worked, brought me full plate of turkey and dressing and all the fixin's. Fresh tomatoes out of the garden...we always asked for a loaf of bread from the kitchen each night knowing what our supper would be (can you tell I am from the south?) "Good evening" was adequate charting. Had a med tray filled from multi-dose vials...I could tell you the name of every med on the tray. Staffing...one charge nurse with no patient assignment, one LPN to do treatments, another RN to pass meds, an orderly to take care of the male patients. Charge nurse did the charting. Really sick patients died. Occasional admit to the ICU meant probable death...a floor nurse was pulled to staff it until they died or got better. Very little was disposable. Bed pans, emesis basins were sterilized and returned for further use. You could admit grandmother because you were her primary caregiver and needed a vacation. Medicare approved a specific number of days they would pay then you called and begged for more days...and they would grant it and you would get paid. You could call the pharmacist in town and he would open the store to fill a prescription. And I could go on forever...not today's world.

Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful reply! It seems there's no going back to the days when patients stayed long enough in hospitals to get to know them. Today's health care system and technology have probably created sicker patients - not healing properly/thoroughly before discharge, prolonging the inevitable, teaching families to provide patient care at home that should be still done by nurses, etc. But, there are obviously many lifesaving benefits to modern medical technology. Plus, I couldn't imagine counting IV drip rates or sterilizing bedbans!!

- 1Feb 1, '04 by ernurse2244Just 'cause they asked me to...and I had the time.
- 1Feb 1, '04 by LilgirlRNI graduated in 1987. AIDS had just come to the forefront. I worked in an intensive care unit, it was supposed to be cardiac but we took regular icu overflow too. we would look like we were going to outerspace just to walk in the room for our aids patients. We had gloves, but it was very common to not use them except when you knew the patient had HIV. one of my patients was the first patient to get TPA at our hospital in 1988 or so. I went to the ER in 1990. The single biggest difference in there is the sheer volume of patients that we see. i worked 11-7. we had 8 beds. me and an lpn, unit clerk and one doc. my big job was making sure the place was restocked. we saw 2-3 patients per night. we had one hellacious night we saw 16 patients, 3 were MI's, 2 went to surgery, 2 were transferred to other hospitals. the next day the doc that was on that night quit. today, that would have been a less than average night. today, at the same hospital there are no lpns, there are 4 rn's at night, 2 docs, a er tech and a unit secretary, the 8 beds are now 14 with 6 holding beds for folks waiting to be admitted. we didnt do conscious sedation back then. if you needed that much sedation you went to the or. luckily for er nurses, most er docs are also a breed apart, i personally have never been treated like crap by an er doc. the private docs are another matter, lol.

I also recall my nursing instructor telling me that I only needed to wear gloves when I was doing a sterile procedure. I remember cleaning an elderly homeless man and I asked my instructor for a pair of gloves, she frowned at me and said ... "be a man!' ... can you believe that? Of course, today that would be unheard of!

Does anyone use SLK (with the new refresh) at their school, college or Uni?
Do you have any problems and are you using SP 2007?
If yes, we would like to visit an educational establishment using this software.
We are based in Essex.
let me know about the live meeting too - i would like to see it in action and even get a login to a test site if possible??
I actually really like the sharepointLMS stuff and hope to have a go soon!
SLK does AD groups now - in update 188.8.131.52.
I have been led to believe that some web parts can run on any dot net framework without MOSS 2007 as long as their connectors for data are allowed for in any particular on-line environment. So for example some of the Capita Web Parts for SIMS can be put into UniServity's platform which is not Sharepoint. It all depends on what the web part does, what libraries it depends on and what the application inside the web part requires for connectors. Another example may be the MicroLibrarian web parts that use Silverlight I think. Could be that they can run in a dot net framework rather than needing Sharepoint.
Sharepoint MOSS 2007 costs quite a lot to licence and support. Sharepoint Services are a "free" option if you have MS Server. Shame we haven't got a single standard for p[ortal technology so that all these providers web parts/portlets/blocks/properties etc. could work in each other front end. We've got so many layers of technology these days, absolute nightmare... but then we have choice... sort of....
Hi Guys,
I am sorry about having 'dissapeared' from the forum after inviting you for a demo on SharePointLMS!
It appears my settings did not alert me of any replies to this topic! (Must check Spam Filter!)
If you want to drop me a line with your contact details I shall setup a Live Meeting for you to see it all! Email me at info @ elearningforce.co.uk

Press and hold both steering wheel buttons simultaneously to reset/reboot the main display."
Found it: hold both scroll wheel buttons down resets the center panel, hold both top buttons down resets the main display.

La Candelaria is a district of the huge city that is Bogota' Colombia. It's a really nice and interesting place where to meet young people and it's not so far from a center of life. This should not be identified with the city downtown that is the North part of Bogota' and it's mainly offices and really "modern" buildings (more commercial). La candelaria is plenty of many restaurant (cheap) and it's close to many universities all around the district. In La Candelaria I recommend the "Platypus hostel" that is a cheap hostel with nice environment. If you like more the "movida" you should go mainly in the North part of the city and there you may find many discoteques... but be careful! Sometimes going there might not be safe, so if you go don't go alone, it's always better to go with a friend, especially if he/she is from the place or if he/she knows spanish.
About the colombian cuisine, it is rich in flavors and very tasty. It's very cheap too.
Now ... Well it's time to go!!! Welcome to Bogota' and enjoy!!! :)
P.S.: Lets be fascinated by colombian girls... they are really pretty!

Treatment for Myelodysplastic Syndromes
A phase III randomized controlled trial (AZA PH GL 2003 CL 001 [NCT00071799]) of azacitidine versus other regimens, including low-dose cytarabine, AML-type remission induction chemotherapy, or best supportive care, was limited to patients with higher-risk MDS subtypes (IPSS intermediate-2 risk and high risk).[17] The median and 2-year overall survival (OS) favored the azacitidine arm, at 24 months versus 16 months (P = .0001) and 51% versus 26% (P < .0001), respectively.[17][Level of evidence: 1iiA] The FDA-approved azacitidine dose schedule used in this study (75 mg/m2 per day for 7 consecutive days) has proven inconvenient to some practitioners. A community-based study has suggested that alternate dosing schedules may provide similar hematologic benefits; however, the impact of such dosing schedules on survival is not known.[23]
While the azacitidine congener decitabine demonstrated similar activity in phase II trials, two randomized trials of decitabine versus supportive care failed to show a survival benefit.[21,24] Both decitabine studies used the FDA-approved dose schedule (15 mg/m2 every 8 hours for nine doses). In the European phase III study in higher-risk patients, median OS and a combined OS and delay in AML transformation endpoint were similar for patients in both the decitabine and best supportive care arms, at 10.1 months versus 8.5 months, respectively, for OS (P = .38) and 8.8 months versus 6.1 months, respectively, for the combined endpoint (P = .24).[25][Level of evidence: 1iiA]
Decitabine can be given as daily intravenous or subcutaneous infusions at doses that differ from the original labeled schedule, with hematologic response rates that appear comparable to the phase III study.[26,27]
Both of these drugs have been approved for refractory anemia, RARS (if accompanied by neutropenia, or thrombocytopenia, or requiring transfusions), refractory anemia with excess blasts, and refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation, though the highest response rates and levels of evidence have been generated in trials in which patients with higher-risk MDS (IPSS risk groups of intermediate-2 or high) have been treated.[28] In lower-risk patients, response rates appear similar to those in higher-risk patients, although the survival benefit is unknown. The use of these drugs in low-risk patients may preclude their subsequent use upon disease progression.

Stanford did not have to put much of a recruiting press on Ekom Udofia, as family was already serving as a powerful tracking beam to the campus.
Udofia would be reunited on the defensive line with his brother, Udeme, after the two had starred together at Scottsdale Chaparral High School. Their sister also graduated from Stanford.
As a result, playing on The Farm was a no-brainer. However, as the Cardinal went 1-11 in 2006, Udofia's first season as a starter, he could have wondered if blood was thicker than Gatorade — which nobody on the Stanford sideline was getting doused with.
"You don't want to look back and think what you could have done," said Udofia, who returns to the Valley on Saturday when Stanford plays at Arizona State. "You take your decisions and make the best out of them. I thought that we could turn the program around.
"I felt we had a chance to be a great team again, and being part of that was something I felt I couldn't turn down."
Redemption is coming, Udofia believes, just much later than he anticipated. The presence of second-year coach Jim Harbaugh and a season-opening win against Oregon State last week have the senior nose tackle believing that the Cardinal are once again becoming a player in the Pac-10.
"I see us going in the right direction now," Udofia said. "A lot of people are excited around here. I'm looking forward to seeing what the future holds. I feel we haven't scratched the surface of what we can do as a defense."
And the 6-foot-2, 310-pound Udofia has a big role in shaping the immediate future of Stanford. He is a key component of a veteran front seven that is the engine of the defense.
Fully recovered from a left leg injury that limited him in 2007, Udofia and end Pannel Egboh anchor the defensive line. Lining up behind them is linebacker Clinton Snyder, the team's top defensive playmaker.
"The experience is the key for them on defense," ASU coach Dennis Erickson said. "They are aggressive and play hard. (Defensive coordinator) Ron Lynn and I have known each other for a long time, and he coached for me with the (San Francisco) 49ers in our last year there (2004). You can tell his influence on that defense. They have really improved."
Against Oregon State, the Cardinal allowed 404 yards passing but collected a safety and an interception return for touchdown.
"Throughout the game, they kept getting us the ball back," Harbaugh said.
Udofia was limited to seven games last year after aggravating his left fibula, which he originally broke while at Chaparral.
There was a new fracture, which Udofia played through for five games. But when doctors discovered that the metal plate he received in high school broke off, he underwent surgery in November.
"I've showed through my play on the field what I can do, but last year was a stalemate for me," said Udofia, who had 18 tackles and half a sack last year. "I couldn't play how I could with my leg. But I'm happy with where I am now."
While Udofia was in rehabilitation, he was constantly challenged by Harbaugh to raise his level of play. Udofia, who had two tackles against Oregon State, feels that he can fulfill the promise he showed during the 2006 season, when he was selected for a number of all-freshman teams.
"He kept telling me that I can be a (dominant) player," Udofia said. "The team needs me to do it. He told me to come back and be ready. He knows what I can do, and I spent the offseason working hard. My leg felt good as new. I've been ready to go."

Global economic and population growth increase the extent and intensity of artificial night lighting. From an ecological perspective, this is light pollution, which causes changes in reproductive physiology, migration and foraging of many species and ultimately leads to loss of biodiversity. Some seabirds are intimately linked with the light features of their environments because they are nocturnally active. We report light-induced groundings of Cory's shearwater (Calonectris diomedea) during a 2-year study (2008 and 2009) in São Miguel Island, in the Azores archipelago, and investigate the spatial correlation of locations of grounded birds with an annual composite of remotely sensed stable lights. Results indicate that 16.7% of fledglings are attracted to lights. The exposure of shearwater colonies in the study area to artificial night lighting is low overall. Four colonies account for 87% of the grounded birds. The distance each bird was found from the closest colony was best explained by the ratio of the satellite-measured light levels at the grounding spot to the light levels at the assigned colony of origin. These results demonstrate that satellite-observed nighttime lights are sufficient to assess risk to marine birds at the scale of oceanic islands and indicate their utility for monitoring the effectiveness of programs to manage lighting to reduce risk for these species and conducting global assessments of species vulnerability. To minimize the impact on Cory's shearwater and other marine birds, we recommend measures such as reduction and control of lighting intensity near colony locations, while continuing and re-enforcing rescue campaigns.

The Re-start of My Art!
Hi everyone! I just had lunch with a couple of my colleagues and right now I am sitting outside enjoying life. I've come to a point in my life where I am just truly grateful for who and what I have in my life.
I am taking time to just enjoy everything today. Often times, I find myself so caught up in my daily activities that I don't put in the time to just sit outside and do nothing. When I do get the chance (or give myself the chance to do so), like rare occasions like today, it just feels so nice and relaxing. I like looking at details that I normally wouldn't get the chance to enjoy. I especially find the interactions between people quite fascinating and watching other people laugh and smile makes me feel happy inside (and I am not a stalker). I spent about fifteen minutes circling the beautiful water fountain to figure out what the story meant. I'm sure people thought I was nuts.
I still haven't lost the artistic side of me. In my AP English class in high school, we had to analyze books and interpret the meaning of the story. There were times where my imagination would get the best of me and I found myself completely off track, making a fool out of myself. But with art, you really can't go wrong. Every idea is accepted and the more bizarre, the better.
Some of my readers might think I'm crazy when I say this, but I think I want to start painting again. I know what you're thinking...well, I mean I know what I am thinking: "Where am I going to find the time"? And I have a great answer for that. I will make time. While I am young and still able to enjoy my time with not too many responsibilities, I want to be able to meditate and stay at peace with my inner chi.
I used to get lost in a painting and be able to relieve any stress I had with every brush stroke and lately, I haven't been able to feel that satisfaction of completing a master piece of stress or emotions. You know what? I have four more weeks in Ann Arbor and I may as well take advantage of the beautiful campus. What the heck! I'm going to start sketcing! I will post up my latest artwork if you're interested in seeing what I come up with. Do you have any suggestions of what I should paint?
Here is a photo of one of my paintings from my Art-Colors course with Professor Colleen Kiely. It was a great class and I can't wait to take painting with her. If you would like to see more of my old or new artwork, let me know! :)

Feb. 15 (Bloomberg) -- Turkey's parliament will start debate tomorrow on a proposal that would require prosecutors seeking to investigate intelligence officials to get approval from the prime minister, Hurriyet reported.
The justice committee in the Ankara parliament approved the draft law after a nine-hour debate yesterday, with opposition lawmakers saying it is aimed at covering up crimes, the Istanbul-based newspaper reported.
The bill was submitted after Hakan Fidan, the head of Turkey's National Intelligence Organization, defied a special prosecutor's request that he testify in a probe into the urban arm of the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK.

Works nicely and very fast for 3D also. The updated code is even more short and elegant than before. Nice.
Greetings from Finland!
Thanks for sharing this code. I have been using it alongside a 2D Nedelec-FEM implementation.
This kind of code could be useful in 3D also. It seems that mesh generators always provide elements in terms of nodes, but for edge-based finite elements it is necessary to have the information in terms of edges.

Grizzly Man, the most extraordinary documentary of 2005 (yes, better than the penguins), tells the story of a gifted man caught in the grip of a reckless certainty who ventures into a moral wilderness and almost loses sight of his humanity. I refer, of course, to the film's director, Werner Herzog. Though his film is ostensibly about Timothy Treadwell, who spent thirteen summers living among wild grizzlies in Alaska before being killed and eaten by one of them in the fall of 2003, in the end it is also about Herzog himself--something that will come as no surprise to those familiar with his work. In his indispensable The New Biographical Dictionary of Film, David Thomson writes that the German-born filmmaker "is not the ideal documentarian. You feel he has made his mind up about so many things." This is particularly true of Grizzly Man, which treats Treadwell not only as a subject but as a kind of friendly philosophical adversary. At its most revealing moments, the film takes the form of an argument, between Treadwell's heedless conviction and Herzog's rationalist cynicism, over the nature of nature and the nature of man.
Grizzly Man is constructed primarily from snippets of the more than 100 hours of video shot by Treadwell himself during his last several summers with the bears. Herzog, who narrates the film in his endearingly idiosyncratic, accented English, explains early on that in the unedited footage "lay dormant a story of astonishing beauty and depth." It is hard to disagree. Treadwell, a fortysomething surfer with a blond, Prince Valiant haircut, develops an almost mystical attachment to the grizzlies, whom he's given names such as "Rowdy" and "Mr. Chocolate." He talks to them in a soothing singsong, at one point allowing one to nuzzle his hand. When a bear shows signs of being aggressive, Treadwell puffs his chest and stands his ground, sharply lecturing "Don't you do that" until the animal backs off. When speaking to the camera, he alternates between passionately professing his love for the animals and gleefully describing the horrible death they will inflict upon him if he ever makes a wrong move.
A former alcoholic and failed actor--he claimed to have narrowly missed being cast in the Woody Harrelson role on "Cheers"--Treadwell found meaning and purpose with the grizzlies. In his off-months, he ran a nonprofit group called Grizzly People and traveled to schools to introduce children to his bear-friendly message. But more than an activist or educator, he imagined himself as the guardian of his summer grizzlies, a "kind warrior" who protected them from the depredations of the human world. (In fact, the animals live in a protected habitat, and the worst threat to them that he records is a boatload of obnoxious tourists.) His summer expeditions consisted of stays at two locations, an open plain he called the Sanctuary and a dense, forested thicket by a lake he dubbed the Grizzly Maze. The latter site, where one could stumble upon a bear unexpectedly (or vice versa) was by far the more dangerous; it was there that Treadwell and his girlfriend, Amie Huguenard, were ultimately killed. Herzog explains, "As if there was a desire in him to leave the confinements of his humanness and bond with the bears, Treadwell reached out seeking a primordial encounter. But in doing so, he crossed an invisible borderline."
This is the story Herzog intends to tell, the clear-eyed realist's view of a good-natured but emotionally disturbed dreamer whose naive belief in the beauty and harmony of nature led to his death. The film is arranged accordingly: The early footage captures Treadwell's easy connection with the wild--his assured interactions with the grizzlies, his playful romps with a few foxes whom he essentially adopts. But these Disneyesque moments gradually give way to a darker vision. Herzog uses scenes in which Treadwell laments the deaths of a fox and a young bear as evidence of the essential cruelty of the natural world. The portrait of Treadwell himself becomes less flattering as well. On camera he veers wildly from grandiosity to paranoia and self-pity, ranting obscenely against poachers, the park service--any human taint that might intrude upon his Eden. Near the very end, Herzog supplies interview footage with the local coroner, a fascinatingly theatrical character who offers a graphic description of how Treadwell and his girlfriend met their ends.
Ultimately, those deaths are the key for Herzog; they supply the tragic resonance and cautionary moral of his film. To underline his point, he includes interviews with a few experts (a biologist, a Native American curator) who argue that it's not possible to cross the line between man and nature and live among wild grizzlies. But Herzog and his experts seem to miss the most relevant fact: Treadwell did exactly that, for large chunks of 13 years. What made him a remarkable figure is not the one day when he was attacked by a bear, but the many hundreds of days when he wasn't.
Indeed, if anything, the particulars of Treadwell's death suggest he had found a sustainable way to coexist with his bears; what killed him was an enforced deviation from his usual routine. That summer he had as always left the Grizzly Maze in September to fly back to California. But after a fight at the airport over the validity of his ticket, he and Huguenard returned to the wilderness, where they stayed into October, considerably later than ever before. By then, the bears familiar to him had gone into hibernation. The animal that killed him was one that had emerged, probably starving, from farther inland. The fatal "borderline" Treadwell crossed, in other words, might not have been between species but between months.

Red Sox option Aceves to Triple-A
|Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Alfredo Aceves delivers against the Oakland Athletics during the first inning of a baseball game at Fenway Park in Boston Tuesday, April 23, 2013. (AP Photo/Winslow Townson)
BOSTON (AP) — The Red Sox have optioned right-hander Alfredo Aceves to Triple-A Pawtucket.
Boston made the move following Wednesday's 6-5 victory over Oakland and one day after Aceves had a dismal outing in a 13-0 loss to the Athletics.
Aceves allowed eight runs, seven earned, and seven hits in 3 1-3 innings. He walked four and committed a pair of balks before he was pulled.
Aceves also made a throwing error after failing to cover first in time as the A's capitalized on Boston's blunders while the conditions deteriorated in a steady, blowing rain.
He is 1-1 with an 8.66 ERA in five games. There was no word on a corresponding roster move.
Earlier, Boston recalled RHP Daniel Bard from Double-A Portland before the game and optioned RHP Steven Wright to Triple-A Pawtucket.

Last year at this time, Boston Globe reporters Scott Helman and Jenna Russell had no idea that they would wind up collaborating on a 300-plus page project on the foulest single tragedy in recent local history. That sudden change of course considered, they've accomplished a major feat with Long Mile Home: Boston Under Attack, the City's Courageous Recovery, and the Epic Hunt for Justice, their essential new volume on the bombing of the Boston Marathon.
Like other compelling splintered narratives, Long Mile Home strings together several remarkable stories–some of which have been previously featured, in part, by the Globe over the past 12 months–about ordinary people facing extraordinary challenges. The book offers a lot of overall perspective, as well as several individual perspectives, the latter including graphic accounts of many who were closely impacted by the bombing, from good Samaritans to runners and responders. On top of that, the details are well-reported, right down to race logistics and tales of drunken revelry that come with every Patriot's Day in Boston.
At times, some of the specifics unwind into awkwardly gratuitous descriptions: Governor Deval Patrick getting called to action while "waiting to pay for his takeout order at [a] Thai restaurant"; their explaining dubstep as "a type of electronic dance music" that "features heavy, driving bass lines and bass 'drops,' when the percussion stops short and plunges the song into silence before resuming with increased intensity." Overall, though, the vivid color is warranted as Helman and Russell illustrate the drama that unfolded from the finish line to trauma centers and rehab wards.
In some of the most touching moments, the authors also return us to the days, minutes, and seconds before the siege on Boylston Street with scenes ranging from children cheering on the sidelines for their passing parents to a cop harassing a runner for pissing in the woods–stories that all naturally give way to metaphors and lessons without the authors ever having to lead. Whether you're familiar with most of the prior reporting that appears in Mile Home or not, a lot of revelations will likely prove unsettling–a younger and apparently more human Dzhokhar Tsarnaev partying at the 2012 marathon; last year's race opening with a moment of silence for victims of the Newtown massacre.
While the writers, for better or worse, offer all the necessary tools for hero worship–right down to protagonist profiles of victims and authorities–tone-wise, Long Mile Home is far from a "Boston Strong" rally cry. For that Russell and Helman deserve credit, as they remained objective enough to let readers connect dots wherever questions still outnumber answers. Because of that prudence, skeptics obsessed with getting to the bottom of dangling oddities–the FBI's reluctance to disclose much of anything; the preceding and mysterious murder of Tamerlan Tsarnaev's friends in Waltham–won't find too much red meat here.
There's no doubt that Long Mile Home will and should end up on bookshelves all across Greater Boston, in part as a symbolic acknowledgment and, in many cases, also as the first significant piece of the puzzle explaining what the hell happened at the 2013 marathon, and in the months before and after. It's not the whole story, and for all we know, some key elements may still shift as further information surfaces. But even though the final chapter won't be written about this saga for decades, if not longer, Helman and Russell have succeeded in delivering a first sweeping look at the day that changed April forever.
DigBoston News+Features Editor Chris Faraone is the author of five books including his account of the week following last year's bombings, Heartbreak Hell: Searching for sanity in Boston through a week of tragedy & terror.

Lewis Hamilton won his home British Grand Prix and slashed Mercedes team mate Nico Rosberg's Formula One lead to four points after the German retired for the first time this season.
Hamilton, who last won at Silverstone in his 2008 championship year, now has 161 points to Rosberg's 165 with 10 races remaining and his title hopes fully restored. It was his fifth win of the year.
Finland's Valtteri Bottas finished second for Williams, 30.1 seconds behind Hamilton, for his second successive podium with Australian Daniel Ricciardo third for Red Bull and a further 16.3 seconds down the road.
The race was red-flagged almost as soon as it started after Ferrari's 2007 champion Kimi Raikkonen had a big crash that left the Finn limping to the medical centre with a sore ankle but otherwise unscathed.
It was the first time a race had been halted on the opening lap since Monaco 2000.
When it re-started behind the safety car after an hour's delay to fix damaged barriers, Hamilton went from overnight devastation to delight as Rosberg finally suffered some of the misfortune that had plagued his team mate.
The championship and race leader reported a gearbox problem after 20 of the 52 laps, and just after Hamilton's race engineer had informed the second placed Briton it was "Hammer time' - time to for a full-on charge.
Nine laps later, Rosberg slowed, pulled over and parked up on the grass as Hamilton sped past.
Hamilton's joy as he took the chequered flag was a complete contrast to the despair he felt on Saturday evening after gifting pole to Rosberg.
Hamilton's practise mistake
Rosberg had secured the top slot on the grid after Hamilton aborted his final lap in the mistaken belief that track conditions would not allow anyone to beat his time.
Britain's Jenson Button, the most experienced driver in the race who has never finished on his home podium, chased Ricciardo home to take fourth for McLaren on an emotional afternoon for the 2009 champion.
The race was the first at Silverstone for Button, who started third on the grid, since the death of his father John in January.
Red Bull's quadruple champion Sebastian Vettel finished fifth after a lively battle with Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, who took sixth after originally starting 16th and then being hit with a stop/go penalty for overshooting his mark on the grid.

Jury to begin deliberating Jodi Arias' sentence
PHOENIX A jury has been sent to begin deliberating Jodi Arias' fate, deciding whether she should be sentenced to life in prison or execution.
Arias spoke to jurors Tuesday in the penalty phase of her murder trial, asking them to spare her life. She says she'd use her time in prison to bring about positive changes, including helping recycle trash and raising money for domestic abuse victims.
The same jury earlier this month convicted the former waitress of first-degree murder in the 2008 killing of her one-time lover.
Arias said Tuesday she "lacked perspective" when she told a local reporter in a post-conviction interview that she preferred execution to spending the rest of her days in jail.
Her lawyers have said Arias is the only witness they'll call to testify on her behalf.

Jodi Arias asked jurors Tuesday to give her life in prison, arguing she "lacked perspective" when she told a local reporter in an interview after she was convicted of murder that she preferred execution to spending the rest of her days in jail.
Standing confidently but at times her voice breaking, she told the same eight men and four women who found her guilty of first-degree murder that she planned to use her time in prison to bring about positive changes, including donating her hair to be made into wigs for cancer victims, helping recycle trash and designing T-shirts that would raise money for victims of domestic abuse.
Arias admitted killing boyfriend Travis Alexander and said it was the "worst thing" she had ever done. But she stuck to her story that the brutal attack - which included stabbing Alexander more than 30 times, shooting him in the head and nearly decapitating him - was her defense against abuse.
Her testimony came a day after her attorneys asked to be removed from the case because the five-month trial had become a witch hunt that prompted death threats against a key witness in the penalty phase of the trial. They also argued for a mistrial. The judge denied both requests.
Arias acknowledged the pain and suffering she caused Alexander's family, and said she hoped her conviction brought them peace.
"I loved Travis, and I looked up to him," Arias said. "At one point he was the world to me. This is the worst mistake of my life. It's the worst thing I've ever done."
She said she considered suicide, but didn't kill herself after Alexander's death because of her love for her own family. She displayed dozens of pictures from her childhood, including photos of her family and former boyfriends. She described the relationship she had with the son of one her boyfriends, and said she hadn't seen him since the day before she killed Alexander but was told he was taller than she now.
Arias said she regretted that details of her sex life with Alexander came out during the trial, and described a recorded phone sex call played in open court as "that awful tape."
