Syphax Airlines takes delivery of two Airbus A319s
Syphax Airlines (Sfax) as we previously reported, is a new airline in Tunisia founded by businessman Mahmoud Frikha. The new carrier is based at Sfax–Thyna International Airport (IATA: SFA, ICAO: DTTX).
During World War II, the airport was known as Sfax Airfield and was used by the United States Army Air Force Ninth Air Force using B-25 Mitchell bombers during the North African Campaign.
Doric Asset Finance this month delivered two former Hamburg International Airbus A319-112s to the new Tunisian airline. A319-112 TS-IEF (msn 3853, ex D-AHIN) was handed over on March 14 and is named "Karama". This was followed by A319-112 TS-IEG (msn 3872, ex D-AHIO) on the following day.
The lease agreements for both Airbus A319s were signed in mid-January. Doric acted as a
remarketing agent for two German funds from the Hamburg-based investment house Woelbern Invest.
Both aircraft underwent maintenance checks and repainting in advance of the delivery as part of the
remarketing activities arranged by Doric.
Syphax Airlines is planning to launch its operations this month from Sfax Airport to destinations in France.

"Absolutely amazingly good stew! I followed FrenchBunny's advice floured the beef and finished cooking in oven. So tender and full of flavor!"
"I so wanted to like this dish. We just found it to be quite bland in spite of 3 Tbs. of paprika. It has an odd taste. Perhaps seasoning the ground beef while browning would help. It may be the type of paprika makes a difference. Sorry, I won't make it again."

I am so excited about this experience! Does anyone else go into a meeting and wondering how you are going to react if there is something negative about your child? Just wondering!

Follow-Up Postings:
Congratulations on your 5-year mark! My advice for parent-teacher conferences? Sit down for 15 minutes a few days in advance and try to outline your own concerns about your child. Where is he/she strongest? Where does he/she need improvement. Then go to the meeting and try not to expect anything! Go with a totally open mind and really listen (non-defensively) to what the teachers have to say. I was expecting all 'sunshine and roses' with my two boys, and let's just say that wasn't quite how it played out... ;-) Both boys are doing very well now -- just not what I would have expected prior to my first conference... |

PT Boats: Knights of the Sea is a naval action simulator that places gamers in charge of a mosquito fleet of the Allied Forces, Russia or Germany during the height of World War II.
Using the latest Direct X 10 technology PT Boards - Knights of the Sea manages to apply a lot of stress to the components of today which in turn gives us quite an intensive benchmark.
At the lower resolution we can see the stock clocked offerings actually come out ahead of the overclocked one. When you increase the resolution, you can see the overclocked card comes in a little handy with it increasing the score slightly.

Of course….YAWN…that's what ignorant little twats like you do when someone is trying to teach them something. BRAVO!!!
That was a typo smartass. I really think you need a hug. You are clearly going through some things.
Danielle, just some friendly advice- just ignore them. These people are educated, intellectual, and very witty. Don't try and go back and forth with them. They are very childish, and you seem to be more of an adult.
dumbYELL needs to hug some high-voltage cables. Hard.
My brother 18 month old dog is technically an adult too.
Typo or ignorance????
Yes, it's ignorance.
I would LOVE a hug.
Not from you.
I might catch something.
That wouldn't be fun.
FuglyBitch has reared her fugly head, once again.
Geeez… everytime I insult damnYELL I lose a few apostrophes and a few "s"'s…
Q: How many damnYELL's does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: BITCH… sleep yo' ass in tha dark…
You have missed the point, yet again, of what I was trying to tell you. I don't have too many problems with your sentences. They just lack basic structure, logic and appear to be uttered by a semi-literate Ethiopian 7-11 clerk.
By the way, the proper sentence in #100 is:
commas can be your friend, Dani.
Do the rest of us a favour and take English lessons, sweetie… Thanks, and Cheers.
The Doc
OK, now THAT was funny.
But atleast I can afford some lightbulbs.
Unlike you.
Keep rubbing those two sticks together dear.
104. Does she really seem to be more of an adult?
Examples of her "adult" posts include:
. Why don't YOU do your mother a >favor< and….DROWN. Just stick your head in a nearby washing machine, got that?
. Type slowly, you do have seven fingers.
. Run along now twat
. "Shut the Fuck Up Dick-Shit"
She seems to do these things specifically to be annoying and immature. This is evidenced by her adverse reaction to your compliments.
Pray for her.
Yes Danielle, it was a typo, unlike your own IGNORANCE at not being aware that the British spelling of the word "favour" contains a "u".
Cheers cunt.
#114 dumbYELL really does think people have seven fingers – that's because she's had two up her nose and one in her twat for so long….
#112 – Thanks for the props, homie. You know what else I'm sure is funny? Watching you sneak past your mirrors everyday… I must look like a Jewish wake in your home.
Not so funny.
Try again dear.
Amazing how one little "t" messes up a whole sentence… in short, go o hell damnYELL.
danYELL, I have a new friend for you…her name is Ghoulia and she is a lot like you only she makes lame comebacks in French.
I wish danielle was in that movie "Roots". Then I would watch it backwards so she would go back to Africa……..
Niiiiiice Stallion!
#120 – to be fair, her comebacks aren't all that lame. She was holding her own (maybe winning) until RichPort jumped in. It's nice to have friends who've got your back!
Mmkay, Danielle, you might just wanna give up now.
the dr, "me", and jrz? Hilarious, witty, and probably going to beat your ass in any argument you ever choose to pick with them.
You've got to be what? 15? 16 years old, tops? Just give it up.
It seems the argument is fueled by your anger and total desperation to have the last say, and everyone else is just kind of laughing at your failed attempts.
Anyway, Eva looks fine without makeup, famous people aren't like…genetically altered to be perfect in everyway or anything.
chill ouuutt.
Danielle- you are letting them get the better of you. Be the bigger person and ignore them. I know you are a bigger person than them, but if you keep responding, you appear bitter. Just be the bigger person that you are and rise above this petty bickering.
Oh and Rich, too, you're a funny guy.
This isn't a dating site dear. Go crawl on back to Myspace.
I'm not bitter. I just had a hot cup of Green Tea. I feel great.
#126 You won't when you realize you've been insulted in every single one of his posts.
#129 Sorry, that's #128 referencing #126. Fucking footnotes…
Yes, you are sorry.
Thanks for finally coming to terms with that.
The doc, do you have something against Ethiopians? You sound like a nasty racist. Sexybitch (which i'm just certain you are with a name like that) if she has 7 fingers out, 2 up her nose and 1 in her twat that equates to 10 fingers, do you have 10 fingers? Not fond of thumbs? Danielle your doing well holding off against this bunch of vultures, much funnier.
Don't you just love how she's voted as one of the most beautiful women ever?
lol Stupid Hollywood and their glorified lies.
Why the hell does it matter if she is wearing makeup or not???
Do you wake up looking great?, i bet not, she is human, you know like the rest of us. Why the hell she was voted most beautiful woman or whatever escapes me, even with the make up she isn't that great.
#132 let's be honest, Danielle is very rarely funny and always stupid. Rich and Jrz; ALWAYS HILARIOUS!! :-)
Appears to be the face of a cum-guzzler. Cum-guzzlers don't require make-up, although it's a bonus.
#135 i guess "let's be honest" is your prelude to gobbling all the cum and vaginal fluids that you can from rich and jrz. rich is pretentious, wordy, and self-referential, and usually about as funny as a new yorker cartoon. jrz can be funny but her underlying ice-cold hostility shows through time and again, ruining the fun. danielle is like leon spinks – she stands there taking 50 punches to land one of her own. but she has some good, short, sharp zingers every once in awhile.
Holy Mother of God this chola is a monster.
You stupid idiots. Very few women look great without makeup. If a woman is naturally ugly, no amount of makeup is going to make her pretty.
YIKES!!! What the hell happened there, did her face get squashed?
Plastic surgery gone wrong, wtf?
Scott Baio wrote a book, in it he tells the story of meeting Beverly D'Angelo whom he later fucked. Anyway, when he first approached her he asked her about her overbite. And she told him, "honey I have a cocksucker's mouth."
Point of the story:
Longoria has the mouth of a cocksucker.
#124 – Nice one, Wally/Trollport/whoever the fuck you are. Thanks for trolling me, beeyotch!
Didn't like the way you got pummelled on Friday for your self-esteem issues?
You don't KNOW ME!
#8 – my wife looks great without makeup. That's why I married her!!
#16 – Jesee – what's a "finace"?
#31 & 48 – HA-HA-HA!! Nice – you're on a roll today, jrz!
#89 – She can't destroy the computer she's using. The library would never let her back in again!
#95 – That would be "WHO are you, Dr. Phil or ….", not "What are you …."
Also, the SpongeBob SquarePants Marathon is not on TV "every night" as you claim.
Don't argue with the Dr. – he does know what's best for you.
#107 – survey says … typo.
#116 – you mean "three in the slit, and four in the shit" yes?
#137 – the only zingers that damYell has come out of a box from Dolly Madison. You mus' be outcho got damm mind!
To #111 dr.bob.
Who feels the need to rub in some racist comments while dissing Daniel -
@144…. I hope you realize that everything you just said to him applies your sorry ass.
beautiful with and without makeup! awesome
I never thought I'd look better than Eva Longoria. Glad I can say so now though.
#146 pj, please tell me you don't live in my area and passed the vision test at the DMV…
Thanks…..I think.
# 137 What-the-fuck-ever….who are you?
# 143 you know you're right

WORST HOSTEL I HAVE EVER STAYED IN!! The techno music blares from 8am until 5am every day at a volume that would drive anyone insane! It is impossible to sleep or enjoy reading a book. The staff are the most rude, unhelpful and unwelcoming group of people I have ever met, especially the skinny, local girl. We are 20-25 year olds up for a party but this place was a migraine that wouldn't go away! Has so much potential in other ways, great food, fabulous pool, very cheap but this was irrelevant

Now and then, when the economic mayhem afflicting the United States becomes particularly acute and newsworthy, I think "perhaps this will bring our decision makers to their senses, and they'll stop trying to sabotage the energy systems that power our economy. Perhaps they'll drop the faux-environmental policies that are more about economics and politics than they are about environmental protection. Perhaps they'll knock off the fetishistic wind- and solar-power boosting, and stop trying to direct us away from abundant, affordable energy that might allow us to grow our way out of the economic sinkhole we're in. Maybe, just maybe, they'll come to their senses this time."
Hah! Instead, according to The Hill,
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Wednesday that Democrats hope to make energy one of their "signature issues" when Congress returns from its summer recess next month.
"One of the things at the top of the list is energy jobs, and we're going to see if we can get some cooperation from Republicans so we can make that one of our signature issues over the next couple of months," Reid told reporters Wednesday on a conference call.
He said energy will be a major part of the jobs agenda outlined by top Senate Democrats shortly before they left for August recess.
So much for coming to their senses. Looks like I won't run out of things to write about anytime soon.

Deliciously Rich Salted Caramel Ice Cream Recipe
Salted caramel is one of those flavors that people seem to love almost universally. It was the second flavor I ever made, and I can confidently say it is by far the most requested flavor by my friends and co-workers. It's also a really fun flavor to make. Earlier this summer, I actually had a couple of friends over to teach them how to make salted caramel. You can read about the ice cream lesson and the molten chocolate cake we made to go with it on my friend Hana's blog, Style Fare. I even rocked the cooking show set up so that we had a batch to taste since the one we made had to chill for so long.
Now, without further ado here are the recipe and step-by-step photos for making salted caramel ice cream. If you make it—let me know how it turns out!
Salted Caramel Ice Cream
makes 1 quart
For the caramel sauce:
1 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt (like Maldon)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the custard:
(adapted from the Ciao Bella Plain Base)
2 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
4 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
For the caramel sauce:
– Heat 1 cup of sugar in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. (I actually use my wok, as you'll see below because it helps prevent splattering.) Stir to sugar evenly.
– Continue to stir until the sugar starts to melt; then cook, stirring occasionally until the melted sugar turns a dark amber color.
– Add 1 1/4 cups cream (be warned, it will splatter); continue to cook, stirring until all the caramel has dissolved.
– Pour caramel into a separate bowl, stir in 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
For the base:
(This is a more traditional style custard that involves eggs. You can also mix the caramel sauce with a base that doesn't require eggs if you prefer.)
– In a medium-size heat-proof bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth. Once smooth, gradually whisk in the sugar until the mixture is thick and pale yellow. Set aside.
– Combine the milk and cream in a heavy-bottomed sauce pan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until an instant read thermometer reads 170 degrees Fahrenheit.
– Remove milk and cream mixture from heat.
– Temper the egg yolks by pouring a small amount of the hot milk mixture into the yolks while whisking rapidly. (This is where it might be helpful to have an extra set of hands in the kitchen.)
– Pour the tempered egg yolks into the milk and cream, and return to the heat. Continue to cook until the custard thickens and the instant read thermometer reaches 185 degrees Fahrenheit.
– Remove the custard from the heat and pour through a fine mesh strainer into a clean bowl. (This will catch any little bits of egg that might have cooked when you tempered the yolks.)
– Let cool 5 minutes. Then mix in the caramel sauce you made earlier.
– Chill in an ice bath or in the refrigerator until completely cool.
– Freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturers instructions.
– Once it's out of the ice cream maker, store in an air-tight container and freeze for an additional 2 hours.
And now for the step-by-step photos:
Gathering the ingredients for the salted caramel.
I like to use my wok to make the caramel because the sides prevent splattering.
You can see the sugar starting to melt here. Keep stirring so it melts evenly.
As it melts the liquid will start to turn golden.
Here's what your caramel should look like before adding the cream.
Right after you add the cream, this is what happens. Whisky quickly! (And now you see why I use my wok.)
Here's what it looks like once the caramel has dissolved into the cream.
Add the sea salt and vanilla and mix thoroughly. Then let it cool to room temperature.
Gather the ingredients for your custard.
Make sure your egg yolks are fully whipped, then whisk in the sugar.
You can make the custard without a thermometer, but I find it helpful since the temperature does rise very quickly.
A ladleful of the hot milk mixture is enough to temper the eggs. Just get ready to whisk as soon as you add in the milk. (Much easier when you're not also the photographer!)
You can see here how the egg yolks have turned the custard the palest shade of yellow.
You might be tempted to, but don't skip this step.
That's why. You don't want little bits of egg in your ice cream. Nobody likes that.
Now it's time to mix in the caramel sauce.
The custard is finally ready to chill, and then be put through the ice cream maker.
And here's how it turned out:
Have you tried salted caramel ice cream? What did you think of it? Will you try making it at home?
I leave it to my co-workers to tell you how that batch turned out. They got to taste it and the strawberry yesterday.

Don Foster press release
Disabled Facilities Grant investment to help support people in their own homes
The Coalition Government is investing an extra £40 million in the Disabled Facilities Grant to help people remain independent in their own homes for longer.
From this fund, Bath & North East Somerset Council will receive an extra £124,791 for 2012/13. This is on top of £484,396 that was allocated to B&NES in 2011/12.
Adaptations that the Grant can cover include making it easier to get in and out of or around the house, for example by installing a ramp, stair lift or downstairs bathroom. It can also cover smaller changes such as adapting heating or lighting controls so they are easier to use.
The extra money brings the total spend on Disabled Facilities Grant to £785m from 2010/11 to 2014/15.
Commenting, Don Foster said:
"The Liberal Democrats know the important role that housing can play to help people remain independent. This extra money will help support more people in Bath to live comfortably and independently in their own homes for as long as possible. Small practical changes like these can make all the difference."
Liberal Democrat Care Minister Norman Lamb said:
"For people with disabilities and older people, even the simplest things such as walking, getting up the stairs and climbing in and out of the bathtub can become difficult.
"We know that most people want to remain independent and be supported in their own home as far as possible. This funding will help people make the necessary practical changes to help them remain in their own home and postpone or even prevent the development of serious health and care needs.
"An adaptation can make a huge difference to the life of an older person by helping them access all facilities and all parts of their home safely and independently."
In October the Coalition Government launched a £300m Care and Support Housing Fund to stimulate the market for specialised housing, to help older and disabled adults continue to live independently at home.

EC Vice-President welcomes ECSA delegation
Mr. Almunia, Commissioner for Competition, received on 30th November an ECSA delegation for an exchange of views on pending EU policies related to authors' rights. The meeting took place at the European Commission in Brussels and has been an excellent occasion for ECSA to discuss its' viewpoints with the Commissioner. Among other issues, the delegation stressed the necessity for music creators to maintain the exclusive assignment to their collective societies, as well as the efforts of ECSA's "Coercion Committee" to collect evidences on coercive practices for the commissioning of film and media music. It has been agreed, that both, ECSA and the Commission stay in contact. The ECSA delegation included Alfons Karabuda, Klaus Ager, Patrick Rackow, Bernard Grimaldi, John Groves and Patrick Ager.

Josh Cosford, CFPHS, The Fluid Power House (Cambridge) Inc.
Last month, we finished off with the start (is it possible to finish with a start?) of square polygon symbols, such as the relief valve. I'd like to continue where I left off with pressure valves. There are at least a half a dozen different type of valves—essentially just relief valves—with modifications for use in separate applications. See the diagram for an illustration.
Since most pressure valves are based on this valve, we'll discuss the relief valve first. In example a) I've broken down the schematic symbol of a basic relief valve into colors. The red line(s) represent the pressure side of the valve (port 1), and the blue side (port 2) is for the low pressure (normally direct to tank). The spring is green, and is rated by how much pressure it takes to compress it, opening the valve.
The diagonal black arrow is the standard symbol for anything that is variable. In this case, the spring tension is adjustable by a screw, increasing or decreasing the pre-load on the valve. The purple arrow represents the desired flow path (from port 1 to port 2) should the valve open.
If you'll remember last month's column, we discussed pilot pressure and the relationship between springs and pilot pressure (Push O' War). In this case, the spring is holding the valve closed with a thousand pounds per square inch worth of pressure. Pressure at port 1 can travel to the side and around the corner to act on the purple arrow.
When pressure reaches 1001 psi, the red line will push the purple line into the middle, opening up a flow path from ports 1 to 2. As long as pressure at port 1 is at or above the 1001 psi range (actually, it'll stay open below 1001 psi, in some cases), the valve will keep bleeding fluid to tank.
Example b) shows a counterbalance valve. These are called "motion control" valves because they prevent the cylinder and load from retracting or dropping faster than intended. If the counterbalance valve was not installed, the pressure induced from the load could force fluid out of the bottom port (red side), dropping the load faster than you can pump fluid in the top port (green side).
The CB valve blocks flow out the bottom port until it sees a pressure signal from the pilot line attached to the top port. Because the valve is blocking flow in the bottom port (red side), flow into the top port (green side) is restricted. This restriction causes pressure to rise on the green side, which in turn pressurizes the pilot line going to the top of the counterbalance valve. The valve then opens, allowing the cylinder to retract smoothly.
Pressure at the pilot port doesn't have to equal the spring setting of the valve, as the counterbalance valve opens with less pressure when acted upon the pilot port than the cap end port. The ratio can be anywhere from 3:1 to 10:1. So if the load induced pressure on the red side is 1000 psi, pressure will only have to rise to 250 psi up top for the valve to open, retracting the cylinder if we assume the CB has a 4:1 ratio.
The final valve I'm going to discuss is the pressure reducing valve. Of the various square pressure valves, it is the only one considered normally open. If you're an electrical guy, normally open in hydraulics means "normally flowing," and not an open contact as with electrics.
The reducing valve is intended to limit or reduce pressure at an actuator to limit force/torque, or to protect the actuator or sub circuit from over-pressurization damage. It works by blocking flow into and out of the valve. Diagram c) shows a simple circuit with a pressure compensated pump and two motors with their own directional valve.
Between each valve and motor is the pressure reducing valve. It will flow in either direction as long as pressure at port 1 remains below the spring setting. If the load at the first motor reaches 1000 psi, you can see the pilot line will push the arrow off to the right side, blocking flow from reaching the motor. Because the motor is still spinning, pressure at port 1 decays extremely quickly and pressure drops again.
The reducing valve opens to allow more flow in, and the pattern repeats. The action happens quickly and unnoticeably; the valve essentially holds pressure at the inlet of the motor at 1000 psi.
There are other pressure valves, such as the sequence valve, brake valve and other versions of the already described valves. The three I have covered represent 95% of the pressure valves you will come across.
Sequence valves are used to delay, or time, actuators or sub-circuits. However, due to the proliferation of inexpensive electronics, you can purchase a smart relay or PLC for not much more than a sequence valve. For that reason, I don't recommend them.
Brake valves are the same as counterbalance valves, only used with hydraulic motors.
Next month, I'll cover flow control valves and their related symbology.

John Dewey matters. And not just in the historical sense as a clear-cut, seminal forefather to modern American education, but in the active sense as a potential contributor to contemporary discussions of rhetoric, language, and technology. New research agendas could hinge upon understanding Dewey as a rhetorician, indeed as an analytical philosopher who can productively inform writing pedagogies and rhetorical theory through unique approaches that according to Larry Hickman (2007) anticipate post-postmodernist trends. Traces of Deweyan pedagogy and theory are evident and deeply entrenched all throughout our discipline so a justification of his use usually entails attempts to reveal many ways in which we as educators and scholars of rhetoric are "pragmatist." Putting Dewey into conversation with the field of computers and writing is an integral move to make not only in making and keeping Dewey relevant to education, but also in taking up Danisch's (2007) and Crick's (2010) calls by putting him into larger conversations in contemporary rhetoric about increasing trends towards materiality and new relationships we are forging with technology.
That being said, simply transferring an admittedly dated philosophy to our current use of technologies in the classroom is not enough. The implementation of Deweyan pragmatism into social action blogging assignments in writing classrooms must be a process of negotiation, one that allows for a working towards new conceptualizations of pragmatism. Putting Dewey into conversation with the field of computers and writing is an integral move to make not only in making/keeping Dewey relevant to education, but also in putting him into larger conversations in contemporary rhetoric about increasing trends towards materiality and new relationships we are forging with technology. Many pragmatists will turn to Janet Emig's (1983) quote ("Dewey is everywhere in our work") to justify Dewey's presence in rhetoric and composition discussions. And while Dewey's ideas are not revolutionary or new, it is timely that we look back to Dewey at a time when the relationship between the public and the school is becoming increasingly complex and when the two "overlapping" publics of digital participatory education and physical civic engagement need explicit connections drawn between them in clear ways.
Blogging tools, like Wordpress, can be expanded for a wide array of purposes and need not be pigeonholed to just fit the exigencies that have driven their typical use. Richard Lanham (1990) once wrote, "We will have to decide how technology can be orchestrated into socially responsible use" (p. xv). In this webtext I have shown how turning our attention to the ethical framework of John Dewey, a well-known educator, oft-forgotten philosopher, and newly-tabbed rhetorician, can challenge the common rhetorical exigencies associated with educational blogging in potentially powerful ways. Middlebrook (2009) and others have expanded our use of blogging, but blogs can continue to be expanded even further and must be expanded outside of our typical rhetorical exigence to completely access the full potential. What would happen if we stopped thinking about blogs as merely spaces for personal narratives and used these highly usable web spaces as socially responsible spaces that are accountable to the public and to the local community itself? How can blogs shift our understanding from promoting the self to promoting the community? This challenges students' and teachers' conceptions of blogs as representations of the "self" and asks them to consider what using blogs for giving voice to a disadvantaged group might look like.
Blogs have the potential to encourage students and their ethical awareness of social issues but only if we stop seeing blogs as mere journaling or exercises in professionalization and ethos and start seeing them as spaces that represent others' voices. The intent here is not to completely quash other purposes of blogging associated with a more individualistic ethic, but rather to challenge writing instructors to think of new exigencies to spur on civic-oriented, rhetorically responsible blogging.
