Rolls-Royce is to develop the largest ship lift in Asia at a new repair yard near Hai Phong, Vietnam. This follows a decision to extend the Syncrolift ship lift currently being installed at the yard, which will be capable of docking Panamax size ships.
The original contract for the Syncrolift was awarded by Vietnam National Shipping Lines (Vinalines) Northern Shipping Joint Stock Company (Nosco) in December 2009, and comprised a platform 179 metres long, 35 metres wide with a maximum net lifting capacity in excess of 23,000 tonnes.
With the new extension, the platform length will be 225 metres and the maximum net lifting capacity increased to more than 28,000 tonnes. Jeffrey Langsner, Rolls-Royce, Director - Shiplifts comments: "With this contract modification, the new Syncrolift will be the longest and will have the largest lifting capacity of any ship lift in Asia. This Rolls-Royce technology will significantly expand the capability, flexibility and efficiency of the shipyard."
The project is expected to be completed in 2012 and is one of four ongoing Syncrolift projects in Vietnam. More then 240 Syncrolifts installations have been designed and supplied to 70 countries.

With all the problems with pet food lately, we thought we'd try something new for the dogs. Louie volunteered to be first to go, but the dogs won't touch him. Too many sharp points on him I guess.
I had to go to Boston for work last week & Sammy opted to travel with me, to avoid being next in the bowl. TSA agent didn't agree sadly so he had to stay in Detroit...I'm sure he'd have loved the Ritz-Carleton, they do accept pets w/guests. I missed them as much as I did DH & found myself looking at crappy pics on them all on my cell phone during some of the more boring meetings. There was a pile-on Mommy when I got home last night! There's no place like home, esp after a 6 1/2 hour flight delay. |

Sweet pictures. Sadly that's one reason I don't travel much. I just miss them all so much and wonder what they're doing. I once took a tiny kitten I had rescued who was too little to leave at home with the rest of the cats. We went to Boston and stayed at a wonderful hotel in downtown and she loved it. |

I just woke up from a strange dream and need your analysis. In my dream, a pretty woman picks me up from my office for a dinner date. (I'm not a lesbian in real life, by the way.) She's dressed like a guy and is seemingly laid-back and quiet, with an intense smile. We are seated in our booth and make small talk. She keeps picking on the waiter by ordering really specific things. Apparently, when our entrees arrive, she is unhappy and excuses herself from the table. I'm still seated and soon I hear loud arguing coming from the dining room. I refuse to turn around because I'm pretty sure my date is yelling at the waiter. I feel people glancing over at me and I'm embarrassed. Soon, she returns, looking disheveled and bruised. I ask if everything's OK and she smiles at me and says, "Yes, but we have to leave." So, we leave without paying for or eating our meals. Once we return to my office's parking lot, she stops in the middle of the road to let me out, without a word. She also glances at the message on my phone from a colleague asking to meet up for drinks later on (not a date, just a friend). I tell her "thank you for the evening" and open her backseat to get my laptop and gym bag out. Before I can get a firm grasp on my bags, I feel the car pulling away; luckily, I'm holding on to them and they slide out of the car as she starts to drive off. Her car doors are still open and she stops to close them. I reach the car before she can and ask why she just pulled off. She barely looks at me and says, "I thought you got everything you needed." I just walk away looking for my car, feeling angry. What does this mean? — Dating Nightmare

Anarchists and the French-Algerian War
How did French anarchists deal with the Algerian revolution? How anarchists in an imperialist country reacted to a war for national liberation? What this tells us about how anarchists today should relate to current struggles for self-determination of oppressed peoples?
Anarchists and the French-Algerian War
Book review of David Porter's "Eyes to the South; French Anarchists and Algeria"
by Wayne Price
January 4, 2013
How did French anarchists deal with the Algerian revolution? How anarchists in an imperialist country reacted to a war for national liberation? What this tells us about how anarchists today should relate to current struggles for self-determination of oppressed peoples?
From 1954 to 1962, a vicious, war raged between the people of Algeria and the French state. Anarchists in France played a small but significant role in opposing their government's colonial war. Their activities and views are covered in this exceptional book, along with anarchists' attitudes toward post-war Algeria. The ways French anarchists opposed the war, and the varying views they held about it, may help today's antiauthoritarians (in the US and elsewhere) in thinking through our views about struggles against national oppression.
The world remains divided into nations. Most nations today have "their own" states, with their own flags, money, and postage stamps, not to mention armies and presidents (although there are still exceptions, such as Puerto Rico, Palestine, and Tibet). But they are still integrated into the world market, which remains dominated by the international corporations based in the imperial countries. And they are still integrated into the power structure of the world's states, which may turn into military invasion and occupation by the major powers at any time. As I write, the US state is occupying Afghanistan, waging "covert" war on several other countries, such as Pakistan, and threatening imminent war against two other countries, Syria and Iran, while expanding its military bases around China. So issues of imperialism, nations, national wars, national oppression, and nationalism are far from "over" or irrelevant in today's world.
There has been some coverage of anarchists in oppressed nations. Hirsch & van der Walt (2010) has a set of essays on anarchist and syndicalist organizing in "the colonial and postcolonial world." They cover Egypt, South Africa, Korea, China, Ukraine (Makhno), Ireland, Peru, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, and the Caribbean. There is a fine book by Ramnath (2011) on anarchism and India. She focuses not so much on self-identified anarchists as on libertarian, near-anarchist, trends in the Indian freedom movement (for example, Gandhi and Gandhism were not anarchist, but were decentralist).
But I find Porter's book especially interesting because it concerns the role of anarchists within the imperial nation, opposing that nation's policies. Their issues are close to those faced by the movements US anarchists have been directly involved in (although I think they would have interest for anarchists currently living in oppressed nations).

Meribel in Summer
Return during the summer and discover a totally different side to Meribel
Many of Alpine Infusion's guests return to our chalets during the summer months of July and August to be greeted by a totally different kind of playground. Laden with flowers, trees and dramatic landscapes the valley provides the perfect environment for hiking, mountain-biking, golf, climbing, parapenting, whitewater rafting, canyoning, horseriding, tennis and much more.
The Vanoise National Park, France's first National Park, is a boundary-less paradise of 140,000 acres, founded in 1963 to protect animal life and wild flora. Hiking levels reach up to 3,855m and include 500km of maintained and marked trails which are not difficult and are accessible to any good hiker with suitable mountain gear. They lead through an extraordinary, natural protected open space for day walks or several day treks (lodging at one of the 50 Park refuges) and some, especially the forest trails, are very easily reached, even by young children. The ridges of Tougnete, Saulire and Mont-Vallon offer fantastic views over the Alps, from Mont-Blanc to the Les Ecrins mountain ranges. To reach the mountain summits, visitors can also use the gondola lifts which are open several days a week throughout July and August.
The Tuéda Nature Reserve, located below the Vanoise National Park, was created in 1990 and stretches from Lake Tuéda to the Gebroulaz glacier along the Doron stream. The Reserve encompasses 2,700 acres of natural preserved beauty including a marked botanical trail allowing visitors to discover more than 100 species of Alpine flora including Twinflower, a protected relic from the ice age, now only found in the Savoie area.
Méribel has many lovely restaurants, from relaxed cręperies to more gastronomic finds that cater for families and groups of friends. Many have flower-covered sun terraces where one can relax and enjoy the sunshine at lunchtime, or watch the sunset and indulge in some aperitifs in the evening.
In addition to the outdoor activities Méribel plays host to a number of concerts, recitals, street performances and jam sessions as well as various internationally renowned events such as:
Three Valleys Mountain Biking Events:
- Free Bike: Timed descent from the summit of Saulire to Brides-les-Bains
- Rando Tour: Mountain-biking circuits of varying difficulty levels around the 3 Vallées
Gourmets' Drive Golf Competition:
- An event combining golf and gastronomy on one of the most beautiful courses in the Alps
Meribel Golf Show:
- Professional and amateur golfers join together for a week of competitions and events
Meribel Festival of Magic:
- A group of internationally-known artists perform magic shows, workshops and entertainment for children, circus and theatre street shows
Bastille Day
Fanfoue village festival in Les Allues
Méribel has many lovely restaurants, from relaxed cręperies to more gastronomic finds that cater for families and groups of friends. Many have flower-covered terraces where one can enjoy the sunshine at lunchtime or for aperitifs in the evening.

Hi guys,

thx darren,
i don't have issues with prerequisites like C++ or .NET failing. I even altered the .ini (setup) file to not search for those and it still failed. actually the prerequisites don't even show up all i see is mudbox failing.
I turned UAC off and I'm running as admin on my computer (plus I'm the only user). I have no anti-virus software and I turned off my Windows firewall... Still didn't work. I also tried using default location for install and selected NO Service pack but no good...
I tried Maya 2013 as well, and it failed too. Same issue.
Anyone, please!
try installing in windows diagnostic mode: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?si
Try installing as a different user with admin rights.
just got back home not too long ago...
tried running in windows diagnostic as per those linked instructions, Darren. didn't work..
now I guess I'll make a new user with admin priviledges on my computer and try Travis' idea.
I never mentioned I already have Maya 2012 (student edition) on this computer. Installed it back in August last year with no problems whatsoever. Could that be the problem? I can't afford to risk uninstalling that, I go back to school on Monday and I need it.
Replies, anyone and everyone, please
AWESOME! thank you so much Travis. I made a separate user account with admin priviledges and ran the install. i literally gasped when the install bar stayed on the screen and Mudbox successfully installed. I chose to manually install the service packs, but that didn't take more than a few seconds.
Again, this had been driving me nuts since Monday night so thank you so much everyone!!

How To Use Clipless Pedals
Clipless pedals offer bicyclists the advantage of increasing the power of each pedal stroke. With clipless pedals, your legs, feet and pedals act as one, allowing you to transfer power from your muscles to your casque beats pas cher pedals efficiently. As daunting as clipless pedals may seem at first, with a bit of practice you'll be on your way to using your pedals like the pros.
First, put your cleated shoes on your feet and fasten them.
Position the cleated casque beats mixr shoe on top of the pedal such that the front of the cleat catches on the corresponding opening in the pedal. Put weight down on your heel until you hear a click. This indicates that you have properly secured the cleat to the pedal.
To push christian louboutin cheap off, spin the same pedal to about 45 degrees above level and push off as you normally would. Place your other cleated shoe on top of the other pedal. Keep pedaling until you have enough speed to remain upright.
Repeat the process for the other christian louboutin outlet shoe and pedal. This can be tricky because you will be moving. To become more comfortable with this step, practice clipping into your pedals while leaning against a wall. This will help you get accustomed to the positioning of the cleat and the pedal.
Once christian louboutin pigalle 120 both shoes are secured to the pedals, pedal as you normally would. You will likely notice the added power on each upstroke. This is the biggest advantage of using clipless pedals.
Now that you have learned how to snap in to your christian louboutin outlet uk pedals, you need to know how to snap out of them. To do so, simply pivot your heel outward until you feel the pedal release the cleat. This, too, will take some getting used to and can be practiced against a wall.
Now that you know the mechanics discount christian louboutin of how clipless pedals work, here are a few tips while you're learning how to use them. Practice snapping in and out of your pedals at home, against a wall. This will give you the confidence to do the same when you're on the road or on the trail. When mbt shoes you're ready to venture outside, practice in a low traffic area like a dead end street or an empty parking lot. Eventually, clipping in and out of your pedals will become second nature and you will benefit from an improved pedal stroke.

Editor's Note By David Seideman
"The songs of unseen birds—the shrill whistling of ospreys, the big buzz of tiny palm warblers—fill the still air," writes Chris Cox in his ode to mangroves ("Stepping Out"). "Only shards of sunlight penetrate the ancient canopy's tangle of limbs and roots." Few publications besides Audubon would plumb the depths of "the stinking anaerobic mud and fuggy heat and clouds of mosquitoes" through Chris's vivid prose and Diane Cook and Len Jenshel's eerie photos.
Mangrove wetlands are, like the coyotes profiled in this issue, some of the planet's unsung ecological heroes ("Ghost Dogs"). The animals' comeback in cities nationwide is testament to their intelligence, resourcefulness, and sheer will. They "scale fences—one somehow made its way into a Chicago prison yard, over three 20-foot chain-link fences topped with razor wire," writes articles editor Alisa Opar. One scientist notes that people "consistently underestimate how adaptable coyotes are—how quickly these animals can learn." Besides being sleek and beautiful, in their inimitable way, coyotes also fill a huge ecological niche, Alisa explains, keeping a check on deer, which ravage the vegetation where ground-nesting birds live, and feral cats, another enemy of birds.
For a less resilient predator at the top of this country's food chain, the news is mixed. Amid southern Florida's inexorable sprawl, writes Mel White, "a seemingly incongruous partnership of environmentalists and ranchers protects some of the best of wild Florida, including the threatened Florida scrub-jay, rare endemic plants, and an isolated black bear population" ("Bear Essentials"). The key to the bears' survival, as well as that of the endangered Florida panther, is a proposed wildlife corridor blazed through both public and private land. Many ranchers are already preserving habitat, but public pressure must be kept up to continue achieving progress on public lands.
It's also high time to demand that lawmakers stop the gun lobby from enabling sportsmen to use poisonous lead ammunition and fishing gear ("Bad Shot"). Ted Williams describes a scientist's freezer in Washington State containing 4,000 pounds of trumpeter and tundra swans, all victims of the "tens of thousands of tons of lead shot piling up on land each year." The lethal impact on imperiled condors in California and Arizona is equally sickening.
If anyone needs a jolt from their complacency, consider a cup of bird-friendly espresso from a shade-grown-coffee plantation in Nicaragua ("Gold Standard"). Among the 280 bird species found there is the golden-winged warbler, which migrates south in the winter, 1,500 miles from where contributing editor Eddie Nickens lives in North Carolina. Behold the rare and resplendent songbird photographer Jen Judge captured. "For a moment I imagine that bird back home," Eddie writes, "flitting through the highbush blueberries of the southern Appalachians, yellow epaulets golden in the rising sun." This spring Eddie can raise a cup of coffee to the warblers and the melody of other migrants, and so can you.

We are already registered. The water main broke just a few blocks south of us and all the houses north of there are without water. Yes, they are working on it but the guy in charge doesn't know when the water will be on and drinkable. Amazing how thirsty you get and how many time you try to wash your hands. Oh yeah, and the stool is only good for one flush.
We had to settle for Super 8, seems the neighbors thought about the problem faster than we did. Quite a line of local cars at the other motels. I have a well in the backyard but it is only driven down about 15 feet, plenty of water for watering lawns and gardens but have never had it tested for contaminants. A little leery of it at only that depth. Getting thirsty, yes I know there is bottled water but we have never bought it except in Europe and certainly Africa.
Follow-Up Postings:
Sorry to hear you're having to leave home.Try to enjoy your chance for pampering.Breakfast in bed? |
And be waited on hand and foot? Yea, yea, that's the ticket! We can hope. :) |
I hope your motel is as nice as the one I stayed in back when DD was in college. It didn't have a jacuzzi but everything else was top of the line and sparkling clean. And the bathroom fixtures worked :) It does feel strange to pay for bottled water, but when the alternative is either go thirsty or risk illness, the price seems reasonable. I use purified water (on the road, pour the free stuff into a pitcher's insert) for both drinking and cooking even though the local water supply is rated as being among the safest in the nation. The water pipes into our neighborhood date from the 1940's and I don't trust them. Faucet/pitcher filters that remove 99% of the contaminents gives me safer water for only pennies a gallon. |

And I thought the leak week was over. Hope it gets repaired soon. |
Sorry about that. I haven't been in your situation and it sounds like no kind of fun at all. I just talked myself out of buying some bottled water, but for you, today, it totally makes sense. |
- Posted by anneliese_32 6 (My Page) on Fri, Sep 2, 11 at 11:12
Leone and George, how is your water problem going? Hope it is done. Son had this problem a month ago - twice. First a 60" line broke 2 blocks from his house and created a waterfall and 2 weeks later a 40" line in the middle of the street, made for a pretty fountain. |
They had it repaired by early next morning. |
Came home from the kids place one Christmas eve and there was a 15' by 25' hole in front of our driveway. Twelve inch main broke and the asphalt did not have a chance. They worked through the night and had it fixed by morning and the road was replaced the next day. Then it happened again when we were home a few feet away from the earlier break, this one was just last year. We got to watch as the road caved in in less than an hour. Same scenario as before and just one of 15 or more breaks in the neighborhood over the last 15 years. The pipes were put in in 1952 so we are due for improvements. Water here is very alkaline so Lime-away is a must. |
I well remember the summer of 93 and the floods that took the Des Moines water system....my daughter lives there. It wasn't just safe water lacking but any water!! No flush no wash. She brought her kids and laundry and camped at my house. Left her husband to camp out and shower at the gym in the next town that did have water. High rise office buildings having their workers go to the street to use the "kybo". A week or more before all got running water. |

Choreo from germany is at it again, this time with a remix of Kelis – Milkshake. You probably already know that I've been freaking out over Choreo ever since, forever.
Although it doesn't lose sight of the original Milkshake track (which can be dangerous), this track is straight Choreo from beginning to end. His twist puts a strange insanity to the track that can't be overcome.
Things you need to watch out for: cutting synth guitar, hand claps, choreo-hats-snare, toy piano arpeggios. These things will kick you in the face if you're not dancing.
Kelis – Milkshake (choreo re-metal)
Will Choreo-mania sweep the nation? With people make a special sign with their hands that stands for 'Choreo'? Will he get to design his own clothing line with german designer Karl Lagerfeld? Will he play Madison Square Garden? When will people catch on to the fact that 'dj's playing live' is really dj's playing back cds?
high five new choreo

but before we get to that.
I'm leaving tomorrow (friday), for a little R&R in Idaho and Montana, hunting snow leopards. (or some fresh POWWW)
I plan on leaving my electronic leash behind, but I'm sure the temptation will be overwhelming, so maybe some possible updates.
To ease the pain of departure, I'm leaving you with this most excellent track recently produced by our german friend, Choreo.
bringing the steady electro/synth/syncopations SO DOPE!!!
what did i ever do
October 1, 2007 | Filed Under music, tuftsmania exclusive | 2 Comments
I am completely shitting myself with the onslaught of amazing tracks that have been gracing my ears. The past couple of weeks have been all about new talent, new tracks, and new discoveries. Why did they pick me to listen to these tracks? One may never know, but I'm not going to complain.
i'm such a fag. Enough gushing.
Lately, a certain someone with a name beginning with CH and ending with O has been destroying blogs worldwide. No, not Chromeo.
Germany's Choreo is back, and he wants to play the 80's synth banger game.
The syncopated cowbell/hats, the synth, perfect tom fills, the dirty guitar riffs, and what!!???!?!? HAND CLAPS TO FINISH THE BUILD UP INTO THE LAST VERSE!?!?!??? COME ON!!!

When you stop, everything else keeps on moving.
Ever since school started, I've been coming across some great new music. That, or I just don't hear new music anymore.
Just got this in the mail today, a couple new tracks from Choreo!
This dude hails out of Germany and I'm definitely hearing some fun little 80's and indie pop influence in his bangers. Anyway, this track "Cut the Dust" is absolutely killing it. It's got dirty synth, a banging beat, high hats that make you want to have a SEIZURE!! The intro might leave you wondering if you're just going to hear the same loop for the whole track, but I assure you just in time for you to skip to the next track, the rewards flow and cuts straight through the dust in an awesome 'pop/happy/synthy' buildup for the last verse. Choreo, make the ending last longer!!!
i love music from everywhere in the world.
yeaaahhh germany!

bonus!!!@!@: Choreo – Neon
get it get it!
Here's another new discovery for me! Introducing….MERCURIUS. Probably the coolest remix of two Chromeo songs I've ever heard. (probably the only). Anyway, Mercurius takes 100% and Tenderoni, and make a new beast that combines/chops/skews/flips the funnest parts of both tracks. Just take a listen.

Jump, there are some South Carolinians working on a swap (link below) and I know there's another guy that does one near the coast and another one near Charlotte. If you keep an eye out you should be able to catch one. The best way to learn is to go to a couple that aren't too far or check out past swaps on this (exchange) board. They are a lot of fun and the simpler the better. Have fun!! |

I've had this for about 3 years now and when i brought it in Superdrug i think i paid around £3.50 for it. I have never really used it until recently i keep it in my car and mostly used it as a quick blush on my cheeks and then one day i tried it on my lips and loved it! It gives me a "My lips but much better" look and i find it last longer then any other lipstick or balm!
I cant believe they have discontinued them! :(
Hopefully they will bring them back, but apprently they are going for all eyes right now seeing as the company is called "EYEko"
Going to see if i can stock up!

This is pretty great. The strawberry shade has a bit of shimmer, but its not too noticeable once you apply it. The colour is sheer so don't expect too much colour from this balm. Has a soft moisturizing formula, pleasant smell and they glide on easily. I'm not too fond of the packaging because the balm is much bigger than the size of my lips so makes it harder to apply. Gives lips a nice tint that enhances their natural colour. Perfect for those who don't like "obvious colour" on their lips.

I bought three Fat Balms yesterday in Cherry, Frosting and Strawberry. I found them for £5 for all three and was very proud of my bargain! They are a neat size, look fab and smell lovely. The colours look gorgeous on my lips and last far longer then any other balms I've had in a long while. I would definately buy this product again as I cannot fault it!

Smells really good, moisturizing, gives a sheer red tint to your lips. Would I buy it again? Probably not. It's pricey for a lip balm and you don't get much product. The packaging is cute though, and it goes on very smoothly. Even has slight shimmer.

This is one of my staples.
Not amazing as a balm, and feels a little grainy but gives a nice subtle red colour.
I tend to use it as blush - blends well and a little powder takes out the greasyness.
Smells nice and looks cute. Super cheap too!

This colored lip balm is probably the only lip product I will ever need for the rest of my life. Obviously I will buy more, but if I had only this, I'd still be happy. Definite HG status

Ive used lots of other lipbalms before (body shop, Burts bees etc) but this is one of the best at moisturising. It lasts a lot longer than a lot of other lipbalms ive used and it smells lovely too. I really like the packaging (all Eyeko packaging is cute!) although if you have tiny lips it could be difficult to apply. You can also use it as a blush but I havent tried it like this yet.
Its a really deep matt red and has a hint of sparkle in it which is pretty but I don't think it suits me too well. The website says it enhances your natural lip colour which is true. Im not a big fan of bright reds but this is a nice alternative to a red lipstick if you want something that doesn't last long.

Well, the color is beautiful. It's a reddish plum on me. I like that you can use it for cheeks and lips. I'm going to try to find a lipstick that matches this color, because I just can't stand having this stuff on my lips. First, it's crazy hard to apply because of how huge the tube is. Also, it looks kind of...I dunno, grainy...on my lips. It just looks clumpy and dry. Which is too bad because it's relatively cheap and such a freakin' pretty color. Oh, and I forgot how awful the smell is!!! It reminds me of hookah, kind of that sickeningly sweet fruity smell. I wish I could get over those downsides, but I just can't. Boo

This is the first Eyeko product I've tried and I'm pretty pleased with the Strawberry Fat Balm as far as the color and packaging goes. The packaging is too cute in it's chubby pastel pink tube. The balm isn't the best as a moisturizer but it's great to add a little sheer of red to my lips. I use a bit on my cheeks too to give it a bit of a flushed/just pinched look. It is sticky at first application so I don't use too much. A little goes a long way anyway. I love strawberry scented lip stuff but this balm smelled too synthetic for me. I probably wouldn't buy this again since there are so many drug store products that can do the job that would cost less.

Am on my second one of these... The first one was a bit darker and looked scary on me being quite pale. The second one I bought this spring and it's a gorgeous cherry red, red(-pink) and smells lovely of strawberry! It also conditions your lips so it's pretty great!

It was on a Fourth of July that I arrived in America. I did not understand why all the shops were closed. When I inquired, I was told that everyone was out having picnics or barbecues and setting off fireworks.
It was later that I learned that this was the day that commemorated America's declaration of independence from England. I was further surprised when September arrived and there was a holiday for Labor Day and even more confused when, on a Thursday in November, I was invited to a dinner where turkey was served and there was another holiday.
I thought that they were celebrating an early Christmas and wondered whether the real Christmas would be celebrated in my new country. I was so grateful to learn that it would be.
Having grown up in Ireland, all of our holidays were religious ones: Epiphany, St. Patrick's, the feasts of Corpus Christi and the Ascension, the feast of St. Peter and Paul, the Assumption of Mary into heaven, feast of the Immaculate Conception. Banks were closed on these days as people attended Mass and celebrated with their families.
In England, everything was closed for Easter weekend, from Good Friday to Tuesday. Easter Monday was the traditional day for weddings, after the long period of Lent. Whit Monday was observed on the day after Pentecost Sunday, which commemorates the Holy Spirit's descent on Jesus' disciples. In France, Italy and Germany, Christian religious feasts are celebrated with enthusiasm.
Religion and politics went hand in hand throughout most of history. To be a citizen of a country, one had to adhere to its official religion. Hence many early Christians were put to death for not taking an oath of allegiance to the Roman Emperor.
English Catholics were executed for not going along with the newly established Church of England as the official religion under Queen Elizabeth in the 16th century. John Calvin, who thought to reform the Christian church, created a theocracy in Geneva in 1536. In 1895 The city council watched over the morals of the community and could summon anyone who seemed out of line to appear before them. Such people were executed if they did not reform.
Throughout the Middle Ages in Europe, Jews who clung to their religion could not be citizens. They were "foreigners" who lived under the protection of the king of the country, which meant they were vulnerable to his whims. The idea of Jews being given citizenship happened gradually following the Age of Enlightenment, as various nations repealed discriminatory laws against them.
Many, however, faced oppressive regimes under the Russian Empire, and anti-Semitism seethed under the surface. Theodor Hershel, an Austrian-Hungarian Jew, formed the World Zionist Organization in 1895 and promoted Jewish migration to Palestine in an effort to form a Jewish state.
Jews had been expelled from this land by the Romans in 135 A.D., and for nearly 2,000 years had lived as aliens in other people's countries. The state of Israel came into being after the horrors of the Holocaust in the second World War to redress this wrong.
In several countries in the world there is no distinction between religious and secular law. Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Mauritania, Saudi Arabia and Morocco operate according to Islamic canonical law based on the teachings of the Koran and the traditions of the Prophet Muhammad. In these Islamic countries, Sharia law governs religious and secular duties, and penalties are meted out for lawbreaking.
It was Thomas Jefferson who wrote in 1777:
"Our civil rights have no dependence on our religious opinions, any more than our opinions in physics or geometry; that therefore the proscribing any citizen as unworthy the public confidence by laying upon him an incapacity of being called to offices of trust and emolument, unless he profess or renounce this or that religious opinion, is depriving him injuriously of those privileges and advantages to which in common with his fellow-citizens he has a natural right.
"Be it enacted by the General Assembly, that no man shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship, place, or ministry whatsoever, nor shall be enforced, restrained, molested, or burthened in his body or goods, not shall otherwise suffer on account of his religious opinions or belief; but that all men shall be free to profess, and by argument to maintain, their opinion in matters of religion, that that the same shall in no wise diminish, enlarge, or affect their civil capacities."
The separation of church and state was an American idea. Until I became a citizen, my husband used to read the Declaration of Independence to me every Fourth of July.
Happy Declaration Day!

OPD Billing
The Office of the Public Defender, which now is an "in but not of" agency in the Treasury Department, is obligated to seek reimbursement from clients through a billing and lien system. It also imposes up-front administrative fees of $50 to newly assigned clients who can afford the payment. The legislative measure establishing the office states that whether the indigent defendant is to be served by staff attorneys or trained pool counsel, the same level of service must be rendered as if the attorneys were privately retained.

I need to add a handrail to a concrete front stoop (only one step up), that is very sturdy and can help people get up on to the stoop. It is less than a one foot step up and no railing/handrail is required by code, but my parents with physical limitations really need something to help pull themselves up with a good grip and something to steady themselves when stepping down. The front stoop is concrete and there is a concrete walkway below it that is not very wide. I do not want to attach anything to the concrete walkway as it is already too narrow and using concrete anchors would need to be a couple of inches from the edge making it even narrower. I have seen handrails for single steps that are basically a singe post with a slanted top rail, but it seems like it would be significantly sturdier to have two posts holding up the handrail. I am wondering if it is possible to have one post attached to the concrete stoop with anchors and a lower post driven into the ground below alongside the concrete walkway. Style is not as important as function. I have seen railings made out of galvanized pipe and also those made with 4x4 posts. I don't think the prefab ones would work in this situation and can't afford to have something custom made or installed. I'm just looking for any input on how to do this easily and safely. Thanks. |
Follow-Up Postings:
what's your budget? No point talking about options till we know that |
I'm thinking that since it is so small maybe $150 or under for materials would be a good place to start. It only has to be on one side of the stoop as well. |

I miss Denmark a lot today. I miss my host family, my friends and my creative writing class. I want to see Denmark during Christmas. I want to practice my Danish… it's slipping already. I want bakeries and cobblestone streets and candles.

La « conversion » au français de François Cheng et Hector Bianciotti
Adeline Liébert
Documento (.pdf)
AbstractFrançois Cheng and Hector Bianciotti, two writers « from elsewhere » have « converted » to French to write their work, with all that this word also presupposes in terms of forsaking but also confidence about the correctness of the chosen path. Both have lived their admission to the French Academy as a post facto legitimization of their career, which began in the extreme South for Bianciotti, and the Far East in the case of Cheng. For these two authors, the love of the French language and its « genius » is not synonymous with an enslavement which forgets its roots, but openness to the mystery of language, which they make more tangible to us.

"Made this to go with a big pot of beef stew. It was very tasty. I used 8oz of light beer and the 4oz hard cider. I must admit I added extra cheese and couldn't resist sprinkling in some dried onion flakes to the batter. It took a good 65 minutes in my oven and I may try splitting the batter into two pie or cake tins next time to speed up the c..."
"I love feeding the wild critters in my yard, and "my" birds just LOVE this stuff. I halved the recipe, did not add the sugar or fruit, subbed the flour for twice the seed. I filled two molds from the store bought cakes, and put the rest in 6 paper lined cupcakes. The little guys swarmed like never before. Homemade cake is always better than st..."
"I doubled the recipe, got 2 loaves and one bundt pan. It rose nicely in the oven, but fell a bit upon cooling. It was still one of the best banana breads I've had. Took one loaf to work and it was gone before I knew it. Out of the 3 total cups of sugar I used 1 cup (unpacked) brown sugar and 2 cups white. Had a heaping 2 cups banana, probably c..."
"Made this sauce today for some baby backs that I slow cooked all day using the side smoker box on the grill. My-O-My. This sauce put them over the top.

I made it as written without any of the optional extras, preheated the cast iron skillet in the oven, and poured it in the hot skillet. 20 odd minutes later I pulled out some of the moistest cornbread, almost cake-like, with a wonderful crunchy outer crust. Can't wait to try it again with the added goodies...."
"Loved loved loved this recipe. used 3 whole skinless breasts and 3 good size chipotles in adobo. I browned the chicken in cast iron, then took it out and made the sauce in the same pan. It all went back in the skillet and into the oven for about 20 min. Put some co-jack on top for another 5 min or so and it was wonderful. Left just the right mi..."
"mmmmm pass the milk. I used half crisco, half butter, and added some peanut butter/chocolate chips. They were so easy without the extra crisscrossed fork step. And we just kept saying "I can't believe how good these are". Going into my cookbook for sure."

I'm still alive out here.
I'm sick of politics and the media. I don't think I'm going to write much about that. Maybe meta-observations only. I think the media is spinning us up all the time for their own purposes and writing about that is serving their purpose. I wish people, including bloggers, would show responsibility and just ignore those things that are unhealthy or bad for our society. There's so much to be done and so little time for purposeless outrage.
I'm trying to learn Haskell. I wasn't happy with Scheme. I just wasn't pleased with the balkanization of the Scheme community, how software has to be ported to implementations. I'm concerned that Haskell has some of that also, but I am attracted by the purity of it all. I'm also very impressed with what Autrijus Tang has done with Pugs in a relatively short time.

NeuroSky developed a range of sensor technologies that read your body's natural bio-signals. We took neuroscience and brought it into the consumer world through partnerships with some of the best and brightest. From those collaborations, we've helped release products such as the Mattel MindFlex and the Necomimi.
When we first engineered our technology, we knew that we had to create biosensors that were both easy to wear and affordable. But to grow even further, our technology also needs to spread - not only through consumer products, but to developers and researchers. NeuroSky made the decision to open up our toolsets and create pipelines to incentivize and reward development. Developers are publishing their apps and securing financial support for their creative projects. Through NeuroSky's Developer Program, our best partner is you.

Two of Northern Ireland's biggest names are to appear on screen together for the first time in a new drama about a notorious murder during the Troubles.
Oscar-nominated Liam Neeson and television favourite James Nesbitt will begin filming Five Minutes in Heaven in Belfast later this month for BBC 2 in a co-production between BBC Northern Ireland, Big Fish Films and Ruby Films.
Written by Guy Hibbert, whose Omagh for Channel 4 in 2004 dramatised the worst atrocity of the four-decade-long Troubles, the work will focus on the murder of Jim Griffin, a 19-year-old Catholic, in 1975 by Alistair Little, a 17-year-old member of the UVF Protestant paramilitary group, and the devastating effect it had on the victim's family.
Neeson is expected to play Little as a grown man with Nesbitt playing the now grown-up brother of Griffin, who witnessed the murder as an 11-year-old at the time.
The one-off drama will be directed by the German director Oliver Hirschbiegel, whose film of the last days of Hitler, Downfall, was critically acclaimed on its release in 2005.
BBC Northern Ireland's head of drama, Patrick Spence, said, "Northern Ireland is a society emerging from conflict. We wanted to produce a film, which, in a responsible way, marks that development. We have done this by recording powerful personal testimonies of the two individuals whose lives have been determined by the Troubles".
Commissioned by the BBC's controller of fiction, Jane Tranter, and BBC 2 controller Roly Keating, Five Minutes to heaven is expected to air later this year.

(Best Syndication News) Researchers in the United States report that there is a link between a gene variation and colon cancer. It is hoped that a screening or diagnostic tool can be developed.
Previous studies have found that there is an association between obesity and colorectal cancer. If a person has a gene for a protein hormone that is secreted by fat cells he or she is at a reduced risk for colorectal cancer. The hormone, Adiponectin which is secreted by the fat tissue, is inversely proportional to obesity and high levels of insulin.
(Best Syndication News) American scientists have found a molecule that can minimize damage to the heart after a heart attack and during heart surgery. The compound can also be used to treat 40 percent of people of East Asian descent who carry a mutated form of the ALDH2 enzyme who do not respond to nitroglycerin and other cardiovascular treatments.
The scientists from the Stanford and Indiana universities schools of medicine stumbled upon the molecule while investigating how ethyl alcohol (ethanol or drinking alcohol) protects muscle during a heart attack. They may have also found a way to reduce chest pain and the heart attack damage among millions of people of East Asian descent who are genetically unable to respond to nitroglycerin.
(Best Syndication News) Although there are several causes of cancer, researchers today announced major breakthroughs in determining the genetic relationship of the disease. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Research Network sponsored by the National Institute of Health (NIH) is playing a central role in finding the genetic pathways associated with all sorts of cancers.
Research conducted by the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center was published today in the Sept. 5, 2008, issue of Science Express. Research conducted by the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute was published in the Journal Nature. Both articles describe their work involved in finding an array of broken, missing, underactive and overactive genes that can lead to cancer.
(Best Syndication News) Scientists have been able to change the function of non-insulin producing adult pancreatic cells into insulin producing beta cells using viruses to transport just three genes. Although the experiments were done on mice, the investigators are excited about the potential of the concept and its use on humans. (see videos below)
No Need For Stem Cells
The technique does not involve embryonic stem cells. The researchers were able to reprogram adult pancreatic cells using viruses as a "shuttle". They changed the functional identity of the adult cells and the process was quick, according to their report. The method is sometimes referred to as "adult cell switching" or "lineage switching".
(Best Syndication News) Researchers studying a protein called BMP-7 (Bone Morphogenetic Protein 7) that promotes bone growth discovered that it can also promote the development of brown fat. There are two types of fat: brown and white. The brown fat is good and can help burn the white fat.
The scientists found brown fat bundled inside the muscle fibers of obese-resistant mice. "We hope this study can be translated into applications to help treat or prevent obesity," said Yu-Hua Tseng, Ph.D. an Assistant Investigator in the Joslin Section on Obesity and Hormone Action.

Quintero E et al. – Subjects in the fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) group were more likely to participate in screening than were those in the colonoscopy group. On the baseline screening examination, the numbers of subjects in whom colorectal cancer was detected were similar in the two study groups, but more adenomas were identified in the colonoscopy group.
Methods- In this randomized, controlled trial involving asymptomatic adults 50 to 69 years of age, the authors compared one–time colonoscopy in 26,703 subjects with FIT every 2 years in 26,599 subjects.
- The primary outcome was the rate of death from colorectal cancer at 10 years.
- This interim report describes rates of participation, diagnostic findings, and occurrence of major complications at completion of the baseline screening.
- Study outcomes were analyzed in both intention–to–screen and as–screened populations.
