The Air Medal is a military decoration of the United States Military. The medal was created in 1942 and is awarded for meritorious achievement while participating in aerial flight.[1]
The Air Medal was established by Executive Order 9158, signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt, on 11 May 1942. The Air Medal was awarded retroactive to 8 September 1939. The medal is awarded to anyone who, while serving in any capacity in or with the Armed Forces of the United States, distinguishes himself or herself by meritorious achievement while participating in aerial flight. [2][3][1]
During World War II the medal's award criteria varied widely depending on the theater of operations, the aircraft flown, and the missions accomplished. In Europe some bomber crewmembers received it for five sorties; elsewhere, the Pacific and CBI much higher criteria were used.[4] The Distinguished Flying Cross would be given to a commissioned officer where the Air Medal would be awarded to an enlisted man.
The Air Force uses the aircraft sortie designation as a tool. A members individual flight management records will list the sorties that are eligible for the award. These sorties are designated combat, combat support, or operational (Active Air Defense or Hostile Reconnaissance). Only the first sortie of the day counts. Armed aircraft crews require ten sorties, while all others require twenty sorties.
The Air Medal may also be awarded to recognize single acts of merit or heroism, or for meritorious service. Award of the Air Medal is primarily intended to recognize those personnel who are on current crew member or non-crew member flying status which requires them to participate in aerial flight on a regular and frequent basis in the performance of their primary duties. However, it may also be awarded to certain other individuals whose combat duties require regular and frequent flying in other than a passenger status, or individuals who perform a particularly noteworthy act while performing the function of a crew member but who are not on flying status. These individuals must make a discernible contribution to the operational land combat mission or to the mission of the aircraft in flight. [5]
Examples of personnel whose combat duties require them to fly include those in the attack elements of units involved in air-land assaults against an armed enemy and those directly involved in airborne command and control of combat operations. Also to include personnel performing "Dustoff" Medevac operations. Awards will not be made to individuals who use air transportation solely for the purpose of moving from point to point in a combat zone.
Subsequent awards of the Air Medal are denoted in the U.S. Army by award numerals displayed on the medal and ribbon. The Army originally used oak leaf clusters, however it changed to numerals during the Vietnam War when the number of Air Medals awarded became too large to be annotated on a single ribbon. The Army and the Air Force also awards the Air Medal with the "V" Device for acts of heroism.
The Secretary of the Air Force approved the "V" device for Air Medals awarded for heroism effective 21 Oct 2004. This applies to all Air Force members (Active Duty, Air Force Reserve, Air National Guard), retirees, and veterans. It is not authorized for wear on the medal for an earlier date.
The Air Force does not utilize numerals on the Air Medal. Subsequent awards are annotated with the traditional oak leaf clusters. Enlisted members are also awarded three points toward promotion.
The award of the medal is sometimes denoted on a member's gravestone with the abbreviation "AM" followed by an ampersand and the number of oak leaf clusters or "OLC." For example, "AM&5 OLC" means Air Medal and 5 oak leaf clusters.[6]
The U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps have two types of Air Medal awards: "Individual" for singular meritorious acts and "Strike/Flight" for participation in sustained aerial flight operations.
As of September 27, 2006, gold numerals are used to denote the number of "Individual" Air Medals. This is a return to the standard used before November 22, 1989. In the interval between November 22, 1989 and September 27, 2006, bronze, gold, and silver 5/16 inch stars denoted the number of "Individual" Air Medals awarded. A bronze star was used to denote a first award and gold stars were used for the second through the fifth awards, seventh through tenth awards, and so on. Silver stars were used in lieu of five gold stars, and denote the sixth and eleventh (and so on) awards. For "Individual" Air Medals, the Combat "V" may be authorized.
Bronze Strike/Flight numerals denote the number of Strike/Flight awards.
The United States Coast Guard also awards the Air Medal but not the Strike/Flight Award. Gold and silver 5/16 inch stars are authorized for wear to denote additional Air Medal awards. The gold star denotes the second through fifth award of the Air Medal. The Coast Guard is not authorized any other military device[7] for the Air Medal.
During World War II, the Air Medal was also awarded to members of the Civil Air Patrol that had been participants in that organization's anti-submarine patrol program.
The medal's design is prescribed by law.
Description: A Bronze compass rose 1 11/16 inches circumscribing diameter and charged with an eagle volant carrying two lightning flashes in its talons. A fleur-de-lis at the top point holds the suspension ring. The points of the compass rose on the reverse are modeled with the central portion plain for engraving the name of the recipient.
Ribbon: The ribbon is 1 3/8 inches wide and consists of the following stripes:
Components: The following are authorized components of the Air Medal and the applicable specifications for each:
Designer: Walker Hancock. Hancock had competed for the medal design as a civilian, but prior to the award of the competition had been inducted into the army.[1]

Have you tried running my message.exe from within the batch file to see if that works how you want?

Have you tried running my message.exe from within the batch file to see if that works how you want?
tomscaper, just a question? do you have WOL active on your network? if you do then can you not do the installs before the users logon say 7 in the morning, this is what i do and i have no irritating problems with the teachers being held up for 5 mins while software is installing. This gives me street cred with the teachers and they give me no grief.
to webman
i tried your message.exe version it shows the message fine, and the mouse wont move, but it doesnt then move on to install the software it just freezes at that point.
i dont know what WOL is how would i find out if that is on my server.
Ah, you'd maybe have to use START to run it then (will execute it then carry on with the script), sorry:
WOL (Wake-on-LAN) allows computers to be turned on when a "magic packet" is sent to them. It has to be support at each computer at their network card level (or motherboard).Code:
@echo off
start message.exe "Please wait" "Installing SIMS" 0
that works great now.
as for the wake on lan, some of the network cards or motherboards can do this as i start them up on a morning that way, but there are a odd few that do not let me do this.
i am still curious about getting the other autoit script to work though any ideas what could be wrong with it
I think I read somewhere that to run batch files from autoit you have to run something like "cmd.exe /c <batch_file.cmd>"
Be aware that there is a limit on the length of time a computer waits for startup scripts to complete. There is a GP setting which can change this.
sims takes about 5 minutes to complete. how would i go about altering this do you happen to know where you can change this.
also anyone insterested i solved the other problem with autoit
i needed to use the WinWaitClose command on cmd as that is what the batch file opened,i dont know how fool proof it is but it waited till the script finished then displayed the completed message.Quote:
run ('sims.bat')
; Pauses execution of the script until the requested window does not exist. You can put a timeout setting on this if you wish
Well it all works fine now, well when i run it manually but when i go to run it at start up, due to not being able to run unc paths it wont run the batch file.
is it possible to convert what i have in my batch file to work inside the autoit script
@echo off
if exist "c:\program files\sims\installed1" goto :eof ELSE
net use q: \\ast-sr-001\packages\
xcopy q:\sims\connect.ini "c:\program files\sims\" /y
q:\sims\Setups\SIMSInfrastructureSetup.exe -a {QuietMode}
q:\sims\Setups\SIMSapplicationsetup.exe /s {QuietMode} {NoServerApps} [SIMSDirectory]="K:\SIMS\" [SIMSDotNetDirectory]="C:\Program Files\SIMS\SIMS .net"
q:\sims\Setups\SIMSMAnualSetup.exe /s {QuietMode} {NoServerManuals} [SIMSDirectory]="K:\SIMS\" [SIMSDotNetDirectory]="C:\Program Files\SIMS\SIMS .net"
q:\sims\Setups\SIMSAMPARKSetup.exe /s {QuietMode} {NoServerApps} [SIMSDirectory]="K:\SIMS\" [SIMSDotNetDirectory]="C:\Program Files\SIMS\SIMS .net"
md "c:\program files\sims\installed1"
xcopy q:\connect.ini "c:\program files\sims\sims .net\" /h /y
net use q: /d /y
Sorry you have lost me there Tom, what won't run at startup ? The actual AutoIT Script ?
How are you starting it ? In the logon script for the user ? Also have you compiled it to an EXE ?
sorry if that made no sense lol.
i have compiled it to an exe which runs on start up the main problem now is that it doesnt run the batch file because it cannot run it from the server such as \\servername\share\sims.bat
i am looking at getting it to do it all in the autoit script rather than run an extra batch file.
this is what i have up to now

SplashTextOn("Sims Install", @CRLF & @CRLF & @CRLF & @CRLF & "Installation complete","500","200","-1","-1",0,"","","")
Do you have the working directory location in your RunWait commands ?
RunWait ( "filename" [, "workingdir" [, flag]] )
I don't see them in your script - try putting those in, I have had a few issues with stuff not running because of that before...
i am not sure what you mean the working directory, what is it for. is it where sims is installed such as c:\program files\sims\sims .net\
The line:
RunWait('q:\sims\Setups\SIMSInfrastructureSetup.ex e -a {QuietMode}')
Re do as:
And the same for the others...Quote:
RunWait('q:\sims\Setups\SIMSInfrastructureSetup.ex e -a {QuietMode}', 'q:\sims\setups')
I have an AutoIT script which I am still developing (taking ages to get it just right), and will share it when I can trust it.
There are a couple of things that might help you though...
You do not need to map a drive to install SIMS. It will happily install from (and indeed run from) a UNC path. I explicity share the SIMS Setups folder (as SIMSSETUPS), so I execute the installs from \\server\simssetups\SIMSInfrastructure.exe etc.

St. Louis Park residents and other stakeholders are invited to weigh in on plans to reconstruct the interchange of Hwy. 7 and Louisiana Avenue.
MnDot in conjunction with the City of St. Louis Park want to take out the traffic lights and turn lanes and replace them with a full diamond interchange.
The estimated cost is $25.2 million and work would begin in the spring and be completed by the fall of 2014.
Specifics are still being hammered out, but the project designed to improve traffic flow and safety calls for a bridge on Hwy. 7 spanning Louisiana Avenue. Roundabouts would be added on Louisiana at both Lake and Walker streets, and both Lake and Walker streets would be reconfigured.
Features to improve safety and amenities for pedestrians and bicyclists will be incorporated into the final plan.
Tonight's meeting is from 5 to 7 p.m. at the St. Louis Park Municipal Service Center, 7305 Oxford Street.

As much as Cuban travel has become a Canadian winter past-time, in many ways the country is still an enigma.
Every winter there are questions about health insurance, currency conversion, power supply, the advisability of bringing gifts, and offering tips at the all-inclusives, plus with a series of other concerns.
In this column I will try to cover some of these inquiries as best as I can within the limitations of this column.
As expressed in a recent column, while I think it is very important to have supplementary travel health coverage wherever you go, from the Cuban government requirement, all you need is valid health coverage from any of our Canadian provincial jurisdictions.
While one of the best travel health providers in the world is Travel Guard, which is sold in many places in Manitoba, as a United States-based company its policies are not valid for Cuba because of the long-standing American policies against that country. You will need to find a Canadian-based provider.
From a currency standpoint, I advise the use of Canadian dollars, which you will have to exchange into Cuba's specially created convertible Cuban peso. It is usually pegged at the rate of a U.S. dollar.
Be sure to cash all your convertible pesos before returning home, because they cannot be exchanged anywhere outside the country.
In taking cash, smaller denomination bills are likely preferable so you don't have to cash more than you have to at any given time.
You can use credit cards and there are a few debit machines around. But make sure your credit cards are not cleared through American banks or you will have the same problem I identified with insurance.
Traveller's cheques are not likely an option for Manitobans since, to my knowledge, all travellers cheques are cleared through U.S. banks, even those from local credit unions and Canadian banks.
Power supply will depend upon the resort you are staying at since Cuba uses both 220v and 110v power at their resorts. There is no easy way of knowing which without asking your travel agent, or contacting the property if you booked online.
If it is a 220v-based property, you will need a converter and an adapter if you are going to use electrical appliances like hair dryers. Only an adapter may be required for camera chargers and computers since most of them have built in dual-voltage ability.
To better explain the difference, the 220v power means that not only is the power output different from ours, but they use a different-style plug in configuration than ours. As a result, the adapter will allow you to plug into the wall but it does not change the power.
Since Spanish is the language of the country, while the basics of food and beverage are well managed at most resorts, take along a translation booklet. Learn some of the terms that you may want to ask about, particularly at places off the resorts.
There are a number of excellent books and CDs on the market that makes it really easy to learn the basics quickly.
There has always been a question of tipping at all-inclusive resorts, and while the tour operators suggest all gratuities are included, Cuban hotels and resorts there, and in most of the countries we travel to during the sun season, do not really pay all that well.
As this awareness has grown, I see more and more people offering tips to bartenders and serving staffs, and many also leave a few dollars for the people who take care of the rooms.
If you do tip, use the convertible Cuban peso, as it is easier for them to use as well, although I have had mixed reports on that.
There was a time when the Cuban government was discouraging gifts of any kind to their nationals. That seems to have stopped; so leaving or giving gifts to people in a country whose imports are scarce is a charitable gesture.
The Internet in Cuba is not what it is in North America even at the best resorts. But it is available. At times it can be a frustrating experience.
While the chefs at the major resorts do their best to give guest the best food experience they can, the single complaint I occasionally receive is that the meals are often bland. I enjoyed the quality of cuisine there, but I realize that the same import restrictions that have affected them for decades likely also extend to the kitchen as well.
Chicken and pork are your best choices, while having beef cooked in the style and size we are accustomed is not easily found.
There is an excellent golf course in Veradero at the former Dupont Estate, but golf development has been much slower than in the rest of the Caribbean.
While Cuba may be one of the safest and least crime-riddled countries in the region, it is likely a good idea to leave expensive jewelry at home. In Havana, in particular, there is more crime today than there was a decade ago.
All in all, I recommend vacationing in Cuba without reservation. Friendly people, modern resorts and convenient flights make it one of the better options from Manitoba.

Hello, I'm reading a proposal SPARQL 1.1/Update (http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/docs/update-1.1/gen.html#t413). My impression that DELETE/INSERT construct is incomplete. I suggest to add to this construct SELECT. It will use the same WHERE as DELETE and INSERT simultaneously. One could use it for returning results about execution of update which are intreseted for application. Now the construct will look like: # UPDATE outline syntax : general form: [ WITH <uri> ] SELECT {...} DELETE { modify_template [ modify_template ]* } INSERT { modify_template [ modify_template ]* } WHERE GroupGraphPattern One can specify what was added/deleted to RDF database. One more benefit is it would clarify what to return back after updating.

How sad is too sad after a breakup? This is a question I often come across in my practice. Allowing yourself to experience grief is a healthy response to a loss. The end of a romantic relationship can lead to sadness, longing and even confusion, and these feelings usually resolve in time.
In contrast, a major depression is a clinical condition that includes sadness, but can be debilitating and include other symptoms such as changes in weight, sleep, energy and interest, appetite and concentration. A major depressive episode can also bring recurrent thoughts of worthlessness, death and suicide. Women are especially vulnerable to depression -- up to 20 percent of women in the United States will experience a major depressive episode in their lifetime. The loss of a relationship is a common trigger for depression, especially in women. This is not surprising, because most women accept the responsibility for maintaining a successful relationship, making it a core part of their self-esteem. Thus, the end of a relationship may feel not only like a loss, but also a failure that strikes at your identity.
If you have a history of previous depressive episodes, childhood trauma or early loss, you are more vulnerable to a depressive episode now. When trust is broken or you feel abandoned, early losses and painful memories can be awakened. Similarly, if you come from a family with depression, substance abuse or chronic illness in a parent, you may have patterns of self-blame that can lead to depression.

Venue Information
The Odeon Cinema opened as the Paramount Theater on 4th September 1937. The architects were Frank Verity & Samuel Beverley (Cinerama is not a style of architecture) the Paramount was Art Deco. It was one of several Paramount Theaters built by Paramount Pictures in major cities in the United Kingdom. The Birmingam Paramount had a seating capacity of 2,441. The organ was a Compton 4 manual/10 rank which was still in use occasionally into the mid-1980s.
It was taken over by Odeon Theatres and re-named Odeon in August 1942. It was never part of the ABC Theatres chain. In 1965 it was closed for a few months for a major modernisation which stripped the building of many of its original decorative features. Until it was split up into four screens the huge original seating capacity served well as a venue for pop concerts as well as films.

BioSante Pharmaceuticals Announces Adjournment Of Its Stockholders Meeting Until April 12, 2013
"In view of the vital importance of the merger to BioSante and its stockholders, the board of directors of BioSante concluded it was appropriate to adjourn the meeting and extend the voting period to allow BioSante stockholders the opportunity to vote," said Dr. Sullivan, chairman of the board of BioSante.
Upon completion of the merger, the combined company will be renamed ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and will operate under the leadership of the ANI management team, with Arthur S. Przybyl serving as president and chief executive officer.
"The entire ANI management team strongly believes that by merging with BioSante we can create value for all stockholders," said Mr. Przybyl. "The combined strengths of our two companies will be a powerful accelerant to growth."
BioSante also announced today that its board of directors has declared the distribution of contingent value rights (CVRs) providing payment rights arising from a future sale, transfer, license or similar transaction(s) involving BioSante's LibiGel® (female testosterone gel) to holders of BioSante common stock and set the close of business on April 12, 2013, the date of the adjourned special meeting of BioSante stockholders, as the record date with respect to such distribution. The CVR distribution will be effected immediately prior to, but contingent upon, completion of the merger.The special meeting of BioSante stockholders will be reconvened at 8:00 a.m., Central Time, on April 12, 2013 at BioSante's corporate office located at 111 Barclay Boulevard, Lincolnshire, Illinois 60069. BioSante stockholders are encouraged to read the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus as it provides, among other things, a detailed discussion of the proposed merger, the merger agreement and the process that led to the proposed merger. The record date for the BioSante stockholders entitled to vote at the special meeting remains January 17, 2013. Stockholders who already have given a proxy or instructions to brokers do not need to re-cast their votes.

Why There's Still Space—and Time—For Another GOP Contender
September 30, 2011
This weekend in Little Rock, Bill Clinton and an all-star cast of political alumni will celebrate the twentieth anniversary of his formal entry into the 1992 presidential race. But the candidate decision that did the most to bequeath Clinton the Democratic nomination did not occur until December 20, 1991.

David Hajdu on Music: The Afterplace
May 19, 2011
Paul Simon So Beautiful or So What It appears that Paul Simon has been thinking about going somewhere unlike all of the many lands around the globe that he has visited over the years in search of musical inspiration. He is giving thought to the final expedition, the big trip across the divide to the only place that even he cannot plunder. Simon will turn seventy in the same year as both Art Garfunkel, the creamy-voiced journeyman who stood placidly at Simon's right side for years, and Bob Dylan, the peer of Simon's whose towering specter has always hovered near Simon's other side.
Why Are There No Great Easter Songs?
April 22, 2011
Although I don't have time to count them, since life expectancy in the United States is only 78.2 years, I suspect that the number of winter holiday songs—and I refer ecumenically not only to Christmas music but to tunes broadly celebrating the wintery season—must be around a zillion kazillion. From the morning after Halloween until New Year's Day, they are inescapable, and singers in innumerable styles (and of varying religious and cultural backgrounds) keep making CDs of songs still widely thought of as Christmas music.
Did Anne Frank Really Have An 'Infinite Human Spirit'?
March 09, 2011
"The concentration camps are a dangerous topic to handle," the British critic A. Alvarez once wrote. "They stir mud from the bottom, clouding the mind, rousing dormant self-destructiveness." This has perhaps never been more true for anyone than for Meyer Levin, the author of middlebrow Jewish-American novels such as The Settlers who is now better known, alas, for an obsession with the diary of Anne Frank that seems to have sent him over the edge of sanity.
David Thomson on Films: The 2011 Best Picture Oscar
February 24, 2011
For a while in this awards season, The Social Network seemed to be the favorite for the Best Picture Oscar. But the later opening of The King's Speech has served it well. In the crucial nomination and voting period, The Social Network's domestic box office slowed down, and it has earned less than $100 million. The picture has been hard to find in theaters, in part because it appeared on DVD in January.
David Thomson on Films: 'Just Go With It'
February 23, 2011
The columns I've written so far in this space may suggest that going to the movies these days is a happy experience. That is, in part, because of the time of year: We have learned that the only movies the business has any pretense of respect for open as a year closes—because Christmas is a rich season that builds towards the Academy Awards nominations. It is also because I prefer to praise films, or to send you in search of watchable stuff.

It was stated by organizers that Jason Newsted's eponymous band were removed from the shows "at the request of Megadeth," but according to a Megadeth representative, the band had nothing to do with kicking Newsted off the Australian gigs.
Megadeth Apparently Kick Newsted Off Australian 'Sidewave' Shows
An interesting news story involving Megadeth and Jason Newsted has come across the pond from Australia. Ever year, tons of amazing bands are recruited to tour throughout Australia for the Soundwave Festival. Many acts take the opportunity to play extra 'Sidewave' shows while they're traveling around the country, but according to Soundwave itself, Jason Newsted's eponymous solo act has been booted from two Megadeth side shows "at the request" of the band.

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.
Summary of "Progressive Supranuclear Palsy."
Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is the second-most-common parkinsonian neurodegenerative disorder following Parkinson's disease. Although PSP was first identified clinically more than 40 years ago, it remains poorly recognized and underdiagnosed. Using an individual example, this article describes the epidemiology, neuropathology, clinical course, supportive management strategies, and resources for patients with PSP and their families.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Neurodegenerative disorders involving deposition of abnormal tau protein isoforms (TAU PROTEINS) in neurons and glial cells in the brain. Pathological aggregations of tau proteins are associated with mutation of the tau gene on chromosome 17 in patients with ALZHEIMER DISEASE; DEMENTIA; PARKINSONIAN DISORDERS; progressive supranuclear palsy (SUPRANUCLEAR PALSY, PROGRESSIVE); and corticobasal degeneration.
Supranuclear Palsy, Progressive
A degenerative disease of the central nervous system characterized by balance difficulties; OCULAR MOTILITY DISORDERS (supranuclear ophthalmoplegia); DYSARTHRIA; swallowing difficulties; and axial DYSTONIA. Onset is usually in the fifth decade and disease progression occurs over several years. Pathologic findings include neurofibrillary degeneration and neuronal loss in the dorsal MESENCEPHALON; SUBTHALAMIC NUCLEUS; RED NUCLEUS; pallidum; dentate nucleus; and vestibular nuclei. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1076-7)
Motor Neuron Disease
Diseases characterized by a selective degeneration of the motor neurons of the spinal cord, brainstem, or motor cortex. Clinical subtypes are distinguished by the major site of degeneration. In AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS there is involvement of upper, lower, and brainstem motor neurons. In progressive muscular atrophy and related syndromes (see MUSCULAR ATROPHY, SPINAL) the motor neurons in the spinal cord are primarily affected. With progressive bulbar palsy (BULBAR PALSY, PROGRESSIVE), the initial degeneration occurs in the brainstem. In primary lateral sclerosis, the cortical neurons are affected in isolation. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1089)
Bulbar Palsy, Progressive
A motor neuron disease marked by progressive weakness of the muscles innervated by cranial nerves of the lower brain stem. Clinical manifestations include dysarthria, dysphagia, facial weakness, tongue weakness, and fasciculations of the tongue and facial muscles. The adult form of the disease is marked initially by bulbar weakness which progresses to involve motor neurons throughout the neuroaxis. Eventually this condition may become indistinguishable from AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS. Fazio-Londe syndrome is an inherited form of this illness which occurs in children and young adults. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1091; Brain 1992 Dec;115(Pt 6):1889-1900)
Multiple Sclerosis, Chronic Progressive
A form of multiple sclerosis characterized by a progressive deterioration in neurologic function which is in contrast to the more typical relapsing remitting form. If the clinical course is free of distinct remissions, it is referred to as primary progressive multiple sclerosis. When the progressive decline is punctuated by acute exacerbations, it is referred to as progressive relapsing multiple sclerosis. The term secondary progressive multiple sclerosis is used when relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis evolves into the chronic progressive form. (From Ann Neurol 1994;36 Suppl:S73-S79; Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp903-914)

Members of the Oldham-La Grange Development Authority are close to reaching an agreement with The Hocker Group to develop a portion of Oldham Reserve.
Don Basham, OLDA chairman, said OLDA met this past Thursday and approved some changes to the agreement, which they then sent back to The Hocker Group.
Negotiations stopped last year between the two, mainly due to the state of the economy, Basham said, and some infrastructure improvements associated with Oldham Reserve.
Members of the Oldham County Fiscal Court heard a first reading of an ordinance to rescind an ordinance passed in March that requires home and business owners to register their alarm systems with local police.
The new ordinance eliminates an annual charge – $20 for a residence, $40 for a business – associated with registering the alarm systems with local police.
A permit is still required for alarm users and permits must be updated or renewed only if the property changes hands.
Fines associated with false alarms still stand.
Oldham County's $19 million budget for 2009-10 includes raises for county employees at the end of 2009.
Chief Financial Officer Shawn Boyle calls it a "maintenance budget," meaning there's no significant growth or reduction, and officials are maintaining county services.
The county went to a high-deductible health care plan, which Boyle said allows county government to maintain the rates at a level of zero growth.

Boy have I come in for a shellacking from readers and other civil libertarians. Glenn Greenwald's latest is quite a barrage of logic, legal expertise and passion, but in trying to think these questions through some more, I found the comments section on Daniel Larison's blog-post here more helpful. Indeed, it's almost a model of intelligent debate on this subject. And it highlights what I think are some useful and important good faith differences between those of us who all agreed on the horror of the Bush administration's invocation of dictatorial executive powers in the detention and treatment of prisoners of war and those of us who now nonetheless disagree on some important aspects of what I continue to call a war on Jihadist terrorism.
Our first disagreement is a fundamental one. I believe this is a war, not some kind of lesser counter-terrorism operation, or a global criminal operation. I understand that it is not always prudent to blast this term around, for fear of empowering the theocratic murderers who want to kill us; and I concede that this is a fluid term, with threats waxing and waning; I concede that we may at time over-estimate the forces against us; and that the trauma of 9/11 should not dictate our every move. But there are groups and individuals out there trying to kill as many Westerners, and fellow Muslims, as they can, and to do so with no qualms and with as much damage as possible. This is not a chimera. Attacks have continued every year since 9/11 and before. The perpetrators of 9/11 remain at large. New bases in Yemen and Somalia and Iraq and Pakistan and Afghanistan exist. If they could get their hands on some form of WMDs, they would. And they'd use them.
Moreover, the war against these amorphous forces of al Qaeda is perfectly constitutional, having been authorized by the Congress, against an enemy that directly attacked the mainland of the United States, and had already attacked US embassies and warships, and murdered the civilians of allies, most grotesquely in London and Madrid. I did not reproduce the image of the destroyed World Trade Center for some cheap attempt at moral blackmail, or to propagate irrational fear, but to remind ourselves of the scale of the damage inflicted by a military organization that is still determined to kill as many of us as it can, and is even now re-grouping to kill more in the name of God.
It is, moreover, a theocratic military organization of horrifying methods, violating core Muslim teachings in its mass murder of civilians, and with a barbarism as bad as any in the history of warfare. I am not ashamed of fighting this enemy, or of supporting a war against it. I remain, of course, concerned that we understand it accurately, do not over-estimate it, or by our own errors and misjudgments unwittingly empower it. This makes this war extremely difficult. It requires both isolating an Islamist terrorist army from the world's Muslim population (whom it targets) and also relentlessly hunting it down and killing its members when they remain an active military and physical threat against us. That's why I support an outreach to the Muslim world as well as a relentless yet carefully targeted war against Jihadists. That's why I want a Green Revolution in Iran and a two-state solution in Israel/Palestine. And it's why I regard resolving these issues as matters of some urgency - because I do not believe the threat is an illusion, or the prospect of wider global war unimaginable.
I should add that it is precisely because I take this to be a war that I took the gross violations of the laws of war engaged by the Bush administration to be so damaging and wrong and counter-productive. When you unleash the power of warfare, the use of raw violence to coerce an enemy into defeat, that power is so great and the passions it unleashes so powerful that the temptation to go beyond legitimate war-aims into torture and mistreatment of captives or collective punishment of civilians must be resisted strongly. When it is actually condoned and authorized by the commander-in-chief, the results can destroy the civilization we are trying to defend.
And so I find torturing captives in warfare far more morally troublesome than killing the enemy in a just war. Because warfare, alas, even just warfare, is about killing the enemy. Now the question before us is whether it is still right to kill an individual member of an enemy organization if he is an American citizen, fighting a war against this country and his fellow citizens in a foreign country which is a base of operations for al Qaeda, where the prevailing government, such as it is, is unable to capture or detain him and where it is effectively impossible for us to capture him and bring him to a military tribunal or civilian trial. That's a mouthful and a lot bundled up into one sentence. But I think it's a fair statement of the ultimate question we are asking - and it is an important question and I respect very much the concerns of those who say no.
So let's try to unpack this. First, is it legitimate in a war to target for killing any individual in an enemy army? Of course it is. In Larison's thread, commenter Anderson notes the example of Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto. I hope Glenn Greenwald will forgive me for citing Wikipedia here:
On 14 April 1943, the US naval intelligence effort, code-named "Magic", intercepted and decrypted a message containing specific details regarding Yamamoto's tour [of the South Pacific], including arrival and departure times and locations, as well as the number and types of planes that would transport and accompany him on the journey. Yamamoto, the itinerary revealed, would be flying from Rabaul to Ballalae Airfield, on an island near Bougainville in the Solomon Islands, on the morning of 18 April 1943.
U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox to "Get Yamamoto." Knox instructed Admiral Chester W. Nimitz of Roosevelt's wishes. Admiral Nimitz consulted Admiral William F. Halsey, Jr., Commander, South Pacific, then authorized a mission on 17 April to intercept Yamamoto's flight en route and shoot it down.
It worked. Was Yamamoto "executed" or "assassinated"? Or was he killed in wartime, as my own plain English word would have it? Was the failed 1941 attempt to kill Rommel by No. 11 Scottish Commando at Bedda Littoria, Libya, an assassination attempt? In 1951, a U.S. Navy air strike killed 500 senior Chinese and North Korean military officers and security forces attending a military planning Conference at Kapsan, North Korea. Was that a mass execution of targeted war leaders? If the Royal Airforce had had intelligence revealing Hitler's precise whereabouts and had a chance to bomb it, would that have been an assassination? If Osama bin Laden's location were somehow decrypted, and capture was not feasible within sufficient time, and president Obama ordered a drone attack that killed him, would that be an act of presidential "assassination" or a legitimate act of warfare? I think the latter. And under military law, the same principle applies to someone not in uniform in a global counter-insurgency. From the Parks 1989 Memorandum on assassination in exactly such a situation:
Guerrilla warfare is particularly difficult to address because a guerrilla organization generally is divided into political and guerrilla (military) cadre, each garbed in civilian attire in order to conceal their presence or movement from the enemy... A civilian who undertakes military activities assumes a risk of attack, and efforts by military forces to capture or kill that individual would not constitute assassination.
Now, of course, the added issue here is if a member of the enemy military is actually an American citizen fighting the US on enemy soil. (Not American soil, where the military has and should have no role in conducting warfare against al Qaeda.) Obviously this matters. A lot. So let's unpack this further.

Get ready for a long weekend, BUSTies! Many offices and workplaces around the country will close on Monday for Memorial Day, a holiday commemorating fallen service men and women. This holiday, along with honoring the millions that have died for our country, marks the impromptu start of summer. Though the season doesn't officially start until June 20th this year, Monday heralds the imminence of those hazy, lazy days of summer: days full of beach trips, cocktails, outdoor concerts, roof parties, and (my favorite!) picnics.
In honor of the season's approach, we've compiled everything you need for the perfect Memorial Day picnic. Get to planning! Or, in the summer tradition, just go with the flow.
The perfect dress can make or break a picnic. It needs to be long enough to sit on the ground in, breathable enough for what may be sweltering heat, forgiving enough to accommodate a hot dog or two, and most of all: adorable. These four picks (in a patriotic color palette, too!) accomplish all of the above:Top Left: Forever 21, S-M-L, $22.80Top Right: ModCloth, XS-XL, $74.99Bottom Left: Topshop, 2-12, $96.00Bottom Right: Torrid, 1-4, $48.50
As for picnic essentials, these vintage and homemade steals on Etsy can serve as your inspiration, and they're proof that retro and custom goodies don't have to cost a pretty penny.Top Left: Waterproof Picnic Blanket, Etsy, $125Top Right: Set of Nine Wicker Paper Plate Holders, Etsy, $19.99Bottom: Vintage Picnic Basket, Etsy, $14

Schalke general manager Horst Heldt insists the German club has still had no firm offer from Arsenal for Julian Draxler.
The Bundesliga side want £37million for the 20-year-old Germany attacking midfielder and are not keen on a player-plus-cash deal.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger appeared to concur with Heldt, insisting after his side's FA Cup win over Coventry on Friday night that the story linking them with Draxler was "an illusion."
Speaking after Schalke's Bundesliga win at Hamburg on Sunday, Heldt suggested any questions over Draxler should be directed at the Arsenal manager.
"You should ask Mr Wenger, call him. There's no contact with Arsenal or any other club," said Heldt.
"I cannot exclude the option we will sign Cristiano Ronaldo. I don't need to talk about this.
"I understand why you are asking the question but all the topics you mention need to be addressed in London."

iTunes-Burning Audio CDs
- Create a playlist of the audio files that you wish to burn. Arrange the files in the exact order you would like them to be on the CD. Keep in mind that you can fit about 74 minutes of music, or about 20 songs, on a 650 MB CD-R disc. Some discs allow 80 minutes (700 MB) of music.
- Under the iTunes menu, choose Preferences .
- In the window that pops up, click on the Advanced button and choose Burning .
- For Preferred Speed, choose Maximum Possible .
- Set the Disc Format to Audio CD .
- For Gap Between Songs , select the number of seconds you would like between each track.
- If you would like iTunes to automatically adjust all the songs' playback volume to the same level, check Use Sound Check .
- Click OK .
- In the iTunes window, select the playlist you want to burn to the CD.Then click the Burn Disc button in the upper right hand corner.
You can only burn a CD from the songs in a playlist.
If a playlist contains more songs than will fit on the CD, iTunes will only burn as many songs as will fit on the disc. The size of the selected playlist is shown at the bottom of the iTunes window. You may need to create more than one playlist and burn each one to a CD.
- Insert a blank CD-R disc and click Burn Disc again.
If you plan to play the CD on a consumer CD player, you need to use a blank CD-R disc, not a CD-RW disc.
It may take several minutes to write an audio CD. You can cancel the burn by clicking the X next to the progress bar, but since you can use CD-R discs only once, you won't be able to use the CD after canceling.
For more information, go to Help > iTunes and Music Store Help > Contents > Burning CDs or DVDs > Creating your own audio CDs .
