EUR/USD Technical Analysis – 30th November Outlook (Forex FX 4X)
(Forex-FX-4X, Euro/Dollar Analysis For 30th November)
Our previous EUR/USD technical update focused on the bearish engulfing line which had formed around the 1.3000 handle. The initial level we had identified as potentially providing support was around the 1.2885 area; price has subsequently dropped as low as 1.2879 – before seeing a resumption of the near term uptrend – and is once again challenging the key 1.3000 psychological level. 1.3000 is now aligned with a long term descending trend line, which began at the 1.4939, May 2011 daily high (see fig 2).
Euro/Dollar Technical Overview/Key Levels
- 1.3000 has once again held as resistance after the market took out stops above 1.3008, the previous one-month high.
- A push higher and strong close above 1.3000, during the upcoming 30th November trading session, would likewise represent a close above the descending trend line (adding an element of bullish weight).
- Any sustained upside would need to break above the 17/10/12 1.3140 area swing high in the first instance and the 1.3170 17/9/12 area highs if the EUR/USD is to move markedly higher.
- In terms of potential near term supportive levels. The PPZ (price pivot zone) around 1.2880 may once again see an element of support if the EUR/USD bulls can't take out 1.3000 in the upcoming trading sessions.
- The 1.2800 – 1.2830 area is the next key downside zone on a failure to hold above this initial 1.2880 area PPZ. 1.2800 also has the 200 day SMA (simple moving average) as confluence.
- In related EUR crosses, the EUR/GBP is trading close to the five-week high at 0.8088, the EUR/JPY is trading marginally higher on the day around 106.50 and the EUR/AUD has taken out recent 1.2420 area range highs and looks set to close the month near flat, after paring back most of the previous drop of around 300 pips.

"But today's challenges require the United Nations to be more than just an intergovernmental forum; it must engage others, too." (Cardoso report, 2004).
The views, expertise and action of Major Groups are fundamental to any environment and sustainable development strategy. At international, national or local levels Major Groups play a critical role in changing the world's reality and improving the environment and people's lives. Bringing the matters of daily life and new perspectives into policy-making, Major Groups are indispensable for international environmental governance.
This is why the Major Groups and Stakeholders Branch at UNEP headquarters in Nairobi constantly works on strengthening the cooperation with Major Groups and Stakeholders of civil society and increasing transparency and participation in intergovernmental decision-making processes.
There are two ways for Major Groups and Stakeholders to get involved with UNEP: Registration at the UNEP CSO Directory and United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) of UNEP. Once the accreditation is successful, Major Groups and stakeholders of civil society are granted consultative status at the UNEA as defined in the current rules of procedure that will be revised during UNEA 2014.
What is a consultative status?
Accreditation will grant your organization consultative status at UNEP, within the rules of procedure of the UNEA.
In the run-up to the sessions of the UNEA, accredited organizations of Major Groups have the opportunity to:
receive unedited working documents of the UNEA first-hand and at the same time as the Committee of the Permanent Representatives, and
submit to the United Nations Environment Programme Secretariat written contributions to these unedited working documents which will then be distributed to Governments;
Advantages of being accredited
Get accredited!
For further information Please Contact Us on email@example.com
These publications provide additional Information for civil society organizations seeking to participate in UNEP's work:
"Natural Allies: Engaging Civil Society in UNEP's Work" provides a clear picture of how civil society can and does work with UNEP, both benefiting from and strengthening UNEP's programme of work. It assists civil society in catalysing the political and social changes needed for the acceleration of a transition to a resource efficient, low carbon, sustainable Green Economy in the 21st century.
This publication explains the governance and decision-making fora and processes of the UN system: the principal UN organs of decision-making, the negotiating blocs at the UN, the various types of documentation and the nature of UN decisions and the weight they carry internationally. Despite strict legal definitions, the nature and weight of UN decisions are often subject to interpretation by UN Member States in its deliberative processes.

By: Sam ClantonPosted: Wednesday, April 03, 2013
Less than 9-percent of registered voters in Stone County turned out to polls on a cold and rainy election Tuesday. Contested school board races were decided in Blue Eye, Crane, Hurley and Reeds Spring.
Incumbent Reeds Spring School Board members Earl Johnson and Al Morton were re-elected. Johnson, the current school board president, shared some of his goals for the next three years with Khoz.com…
Earl Johnson D704 :21 "… common core assessments"
Steve Patton and Earnest Bohner were elected to the Blue Eye School Board, while Mark Lander and Kevin Williams were elected in Crane. A close election in Hurley saw Chad Langley and Marti Bane selected by voters from a field of 5 candidates.
Contested municipal races were decided in Kimberling City, Crane and Hurley.
Kenneth Bowling, who was appointed to the Kimberling City Board of Aldermen, won the election in Ward 2, narrowly defeating Michele Stump. Bowling shared some of his goals for the next two years with Khoz.com…
Kenneth Bowling D705 :27 "… by the lake front"

I love this look: Do you think pulling the base cabinets out 3" (not increasing depth, just pulling them off the wall) would make it hard to get to standard depth uppers? I know a lot of people with custom cabinetry do a lot of increased depths that basically mean a difference of 15" (ie 30" lowers and 15" uppers) which is what this would be (27" lower and 12" uppers) so it can't be a terrible idea, right? I'd love to hear what others think about this look! |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by hollysprings (My Page) on Thu, Sep 12, 13 at 23:14
Without also increasing the depth of the uppers it can make reaching the standard depth uppers difficult without a step stool. For everyday items. Set up some cardboard in front of your current base cabinets and see if you can reach your glasses and cereal. Even if you are tall and can reach the first shelf, it can be hard on your back to lean that far across the counter. And you probably won't be able to reach the second shelf at all. |
If the brand your using doesn't offer increased depth uppers, or you don't want the extra cost you can also block out the uppers. Block both top and bottom, secure well to studs. You have to cover the blocked spaced on the ends-extned side back or add a panel. |

Do you think pulling the base cabinets out 3" (not increasing depth, just pulling them off the wall) would make it hard to get to standard depth uppers? Test it ... put a cardboard blocker that sticks out an extra 3 inches in front of the base cabinets and see what happens. |
Thanks all. The mock-up makes it seem like I would hardly notice a difference. Co-Co, do you have any other pictures of your kitchen-- that one looked great and I'd love to see more! |
- Posted by grandmaof3 (My Page) on Fri, Sep 13, 13 at 15:19
In our laundry room, the cupboards over my FL washer are impossible to reach without a step stool. Also that picture you showed with the bump out behind the stove....While attractive seems to be a "grease" catcher. I am always cleaning the wall behind my cook top. |
- Posted by lavender_lass (My Page) on Fri, Sep 13, 13 at 18:49
It look great, but I don't think I would want to reach over a pot of boiling water, to get the salt and pepper. Maybe something decorative there and have the shelf extend on both sides, as it is on the left? |
- Posted by lcskaisgir (My Page) on Fri, Sep 13, 13 at 19:07
I absolutely love the look of that too! I have never seen that done before. I keep my oil and salt/pepper behind my cooktop (between the edge of cooktop and wall there is about 2 inches) and I really love having it there. I don't mind reaching over pots that are cooking on the stove. It's just really convenient and they're out of the way. |
Yes, Lavender Lass, I think I would do the whole run of the wall behind my stove, not just the one area. I'm really digging this idea and I feel like it won't end up costing anything really. The original price quote on our quartz included a 4" backsplash that we weren't going to want, so that can be reallocated to the top of this shelf and then the tile for BS can just be broken into the two depths. I can't remember who brought up the point about making a fridge seem more built in, but that is a great point and definitely helps my design aesthetic. Now I just have to get everyone on board who will actually be involved in creating this masterpiece! :) |
If you take 3 inches from behind the stove, you lose 3 inches from the floor also. Do you have enough room in the kitchen where you would NOT miss that 3 inches? As in the aisle width, for example.... Some of the ranges come with the shelves that you can buy to put over the stove. Is that an option for you without losing the floor space? http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/kitchbath/msg030940447656.html http://www.houzz.com/shelf-under-range-hood |

I was wondering what you guys and gals and guy-gals and gal-guys like to draw. (that was a mouthful) Also your style. Also maybe if it's different then you're favorite subjects or styles.
I love digital art, and recently I got a deviantart account. Some of the art there is AMAZINGLY sick! I've actually got into looking at the Anthro stuff (animals drawn to look like they have more of a human structure, like hands *think cartoons w/ animals like tom & jerry or something*). It's pretty cool what some people can do.
If you like just Anthro stuff, there's also www.furaffinity.net
It's pretty cool as well. I kinda got stuck on Anthro cuz I've also had this idea for a raccoon, but after sketching for a bit, I realized it's really not that easy. I can't exactly use my computer here at my dad's house cuz it doesn't have a mouse or wacom tablet, but a trackpad :(
Soooo, share your thoughts! suggestions, references, examples, and links to some crazy shit are all welcome!
writing count as drawing? im painting a picture using words!
if you riase the banner of scotland, you raise the banner of freedom!
~willam wallace
I draw in a very cartoony style. :) Mostly animals with really strange colors. I wish I could draw anthro, but for some reason I just fail every time I try.
i like to draw eyes and cells. i like a lot of shading! otherwise i like to doodle animals.
--i used to be a tomboy, now im a full grown lesbian--
**you must be the change you wish to see in the world**
I frequently write about homosexual relationships. xD Like Farret said, that should count as art! I also draw quite a bit of manga (though not very well) and some macabre. I need to practice more, though.
"No, I didn't trip. I was just testing gravity. (It still works)"
That's pretty cool! And again, welcome. I wish I could pick up writing again, but I always get stuck. It took me forever to finish 2 songs for mah band... oh well. Anyways, I gotta go get started on the Hot Lesbian Tea pic, lol.
Living in a sculpted society has led me to become the unstable psychopath that I am today... (umm...) JOY!!!

Flaky Cheddar-Chive Biscuits Recipe
- 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
- 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 tablespoons minced fresh chives
- 1 cup buttermilk
- Preheat oven to 425°. In a large bowl, whisk the first five ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; stir in cheese and chives. Add buttermilk; stir just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times.
- Pat or roll dough to 3/4-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 2 in. apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Yield: 10 biscuits.
Reviews for Flaky Cheddar-Chive Biscuits
Sort By :
"I loved these biscuits a lot! Very flavorful. I could eat the whole pan. Didn't change a thing. You'd think I really knew how to cook with these."
"These were really good but I did use milk instead of buttermilk and 11/2 tsp. dried chives instead of fresh."
"Delicious! I forgot to add the chives and cheddar before the buttermilk so I kneaded it in. I was afraid it would make it too tough, but it was just fine. The batter did seem dry; I had to knead it to get it to come together. I didn't have a biscuit cutter at the time so I cut it into squares. We loved them, would definitely make again."
"My daughter made these last night, and we thought they were terrific! We did not have any chives and just left that out. My husband ate one plain and one with apple jelly, and he liked it both ways."
"These were pretty good, although I don't know how often I'll make them. I thought they could maybe use some garlic or something to give them a bit more flavor. But they looked beautiful!"

Pastel piece of my favorite City, New York
While studying art in college I found that abstraction comes naturally to me when painting and drawing. I like to take away and not add. I try to simplify my subject matter so much that just the heart of it remains. Experimenting with different mediums, especially oils, pastels, charcoal and india ink, allows one medium to relieve the other, preventing boredom and allowing me to express myself in different ways. I have benefited from wonderful art teachers throughout my life and also have learned a lot from the writings of famous artists. Robert Henri, Andy Warhol and Vincent Van Gogh are my favorite artists with writings to learn from.

Umpteen people have written to me, because they would like me to go vegan. If I did, they say, I could eat raw, save the carbon produced by cooking on my natural gas stove (which I still haven't figured out how to get around), and be kinder to animals. They tell me I could eat lots of nuts and beans for protein.
Problem is, I can't find nuts and beans grown within 250 miles of the city, and eating local, to reduce food miles, is one of the parameters of the No Impact project. Now, I know that the vegans in the crowd would say that perhaps I should relax my mileage standards. Someone even wrote me that it would be better to drive a hummer and not eat meat.
Well, good news! I don't drive a hummer and I don't eat meat. But I do eat eggs, cheese and milk. The thing is, I've visited the farms and seen how the animals are treated, and I'm content that they are treated well. That is to say, my conscience is clear. I'm satisfied with that.
Each of us who want to live an environmental life has to make choices and trade offs. I really admire vegans for making theirs. The vegan choice is an excellent and important ingredient in the mix. I thank vegans for reminding us all about how important it is to be kind to animals (Frankie, my little dog, pictured here, is by the way in full agreement on this point).
The way I see it, vegans help promote kindness to animals. Local eaters help reduce food miles. Between the two groups, we promote a range of environmental options for people to pick up. There are many ways to be kind to the planet. In other words, it takes all sorts.

Eight Westminster College senior elementary education majors and two faculty from Westminster's Department of Education participated in the Pennsylvania Council for Exceptional Children annual conference Nov. 3-4 in Harrisburg.
Dr. Linda Domanski, associate professor of education, and students Jillian Babish and Caitlin Lehberger gave a presentation on "Embedding Low Incidence Practicum Experiences." They described how opportunities to work with students who were identified as having special needs were built into Westminster's teacher preparation program, with an emphasis on serving students who have autism and other less frequently occurring types of disabilities.
"We talked about challenges, differentiated teaching techniques and management systems used in the classrooms, and some of the benefits we received from being placed in these types of settings," Babish said.
"Although we presented to a small group of professional educators, the experience was beneficial," Lehberger said. "Having two education majors sharing their experiences helped provide real-life examples of how pre-service teacher candidates actually worked in the classroom and demonstrated how well Westminster's education program prepared us."
Babish and Lehberger received travel/presentation grants from Westminster's Drinko Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning to attend the conference.
Also attending from Westminster were Jane Dean, adjunct education faculty and co-adviser to the campus chapter of the Council for Exceptional Children, and students Kristen Edwards, Kristen Fedon, Erica LaMantia, Lauren Latinovich, Kristin Sibeto, and Mallory Woods.
Approximately 200 conference participants attended workshops and heard a keynote presentation from Pennsylvania Secretary of Education Ron Tomalis.
Contact Domanski at (724) 946-7182 or email for additional information.
The Drinko Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning was created to enrich undergraduate education at Westminster through advancing world-class teaching as well as by participating in collaborations that address community and regional needs including strengthening K-12 education. The Undergraduate Research Initiative provides funding for students to conduct research and to present their research at regional and national conferences.

The Tide Is Rising
A new glimpse into the upcoming Innsmouth Horror Expansion! |
Arkham Horror | Published 15 May 2009 |
The real thing behind the way folks feel is simply race prejudice - and I don't say I'm blaming those that hold it. I hate those Innsmouth folks myself, and I wouldn't care to go to their town. I s'pose you know - though I can see you're a Westerner by your talk - what a lot our New England ships - used to have to do with queer ports in Africa, Asia, the South Seas, and everywhere else, and what queer kinds of people they sometimes brought back with 'em. You've probably heard about the Salem man that came home with a Chinese wife, and maybe you know there's still a bunch of Fiji Islanders somewhere around Cape Cod.
"Well, there must be something like that back of the Innsmouth people. The place always was badly cut off from the rest of the country by marshes and creeks and we can't be sure about the ins and outs of the matter; but it's pretty clear that old Captain Marsh must have brought home some odd specimens when he had all three of his ships in commission back in the twenties and thirties. There certainly is a strange kind of streak in the Innsmouth folks today - I don't know how to explain it but it sort of makes you crawl. You'll notice a little in Sargent if you take his bus. Some of 'em have queer narrow heads with flat noses and bulgy, starry eyes that never seem to shut, and their skin ain't quite right. Rough and scabby, and the sides of the necks are all shriveled or creased up. Get bald, too, very young. The older fellows look the worst - fact is, I don't believe I've ever seen a very old chap of that kind. Guess they must die of looking in the glass! Animals hate 'em - they used to have lots of horse trouble before the autos came in.
"Nobody around here or in Arkham or Ipswich will have anything to do with 'em, and they act kind of offish themselves when they come to town or when anyone tries to fish on their grounds. Queer how fish are always thick off Innsmouth Harbour when there ain't any anywhere else around - but just try to fish there yourself and see how the folks chase you off!
Innsmouth adds the threat of the Deep Ones to the problems that the investigators must deal with, in the form of the Deep Ones Rising track. If the Deep Ones Rising track ever completely fills up, the Ancient One immediately awakens. There are two primary ways for the Deep Ones Rising track to advance. Each time a gate is prevented from opening, such as by an elder sign token or an investigator ability, add one uprising token to the Deep Ones Rising track. In addition, there are special vortex spaces found on the Innsmouth board. Investigators cannot move into vortices under any circumstances (not even through the use of an item). Any monster that enters a vortex is immediately returned to the cup. For each monster returned to the cup in this fashion, raise the terror level by one. In addition, add one uprising token to the Deep Ones Rising track.
Federal Raids
In order to prevent the Deep Ones from rising, the investigators can gather evidence in the town of Innsmouth to convince the Feds to take action. This gathering of evidence is represented by filling up the Feds Raid Innsmouth track. During the Upkeep Phase, any investigator(s) in an Innsmouth neighborhood (either in a location or a street area) may spend 1 or more Clue tokens to place them on spaces on the Feds Raid Innsmouth track that are the same color as the neighborhood he is in. If the Feds Raid Innsmouth track is completely filled with Clue tokens (a total of 6 Clue tokens are required), then both the Feds Raid Innsmouth and the Deep Ones Rising tracks are emptied of tokens. Of course, this doesn't prevent the Deep Ones Rising track from starting to fill up once more, but it at least delays the inevitable.
With the Deep One Rising track keeping the town of Innsmouth busy, the time is ripe for the appearance of Father Dagon.

If you've ever encountered one of those moments when you can't figure out what you want to eat, or even worse, which pizza you would like to choose, then you should go for the John Riepenhoff masterpiece: 20 Pizzas in 1 Pizza. Inspired by the art of collage, the 20 Pizzas in 1 Pizza was meant as a bonus interactive statement to his work.
Fabricated by Classic Slice head pizza chef Jason Todd, each individual small and large pizza was cooked separately and then cooked together with additional toppings.

I'm a resto/tank druid thinking of going resto/boomkin. In raids there seems to be a lot of tanks, and healers are more in demand. Of the DPS specs the boomkin also seems to be rare. I am interested in playing needed roles because my schedulle forces me to be a pugger only, it being so random.
My concern is, i never played boomkin before and it seems to be the most complicated spec in the game! The whole eclipse mechanic seems hard to master. And from what i read in 4.2 notes blizz seems to be missing the target when trying to fix it. What do the great minds think? Also, would i be able to use resto gear at first for boomkin? I dont use tier pieces mostly.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Romeo!
Facts about Romeo
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Black (All)
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Romeo's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Romeo is a sleek and shiny one year old charmer. He knows how to romance you and would make Shakespeare proud! His owner is in the hospital and needs to find a home for this sweet cat and both of them would be forever grateful. Romeo is very loving and when he sees your lap he knows that its an invitation to hop up and purr his heart out! He was born in Brooklyn and is the picture of health. He loves to play and likes dogs (he lives with a small dog now). Bring a little love into your life!
Other Pets at Infinite Hope
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Romeo, a Brooklyn Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Brooklyn, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Brooklyn.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Brooklyn already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Brooklyn breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Brooklyn paves the way for another one to be saved.

May 12, 2008, 9:32 AM
By John H. Richardson
And Hatch was the same way I was: He didnt want to do anything to foreclose what he thought was a vigorous president. At the same time he wanted to investigate things he did before he was president. In a way, I think he was protecting the presidency. Because he thought, If presidential power expands to include those things, then you really undermine -- people arent going to respect the president at all.
Certainly there was this whole industry of people outside the Congress, all these Clinton-haters, who were making a career out of attacking Clinton, but I thought it was a legitimate subject for investigation. The president and his advisors were trying to cover up financial misconduct or sexual harassment. I think Congress is allowed to ask about that. For example, I think Congress is fully allowed to ask about interrogation procedures. Thats one of their roles. They should have oversight. It can be crippling, obviously, to the executive if Congress goes forward guns blazing in its oversight powers, but I dont think theres anything unconstitutional about it.
Certainly for Hatch it wasnt vindictive. I cant speak for everyone who worked in the Senate. Hatch thought there were things that could be wrong here.
Clinton certainly didnt make it easy. Same as the Bush administration. Knowing what you know now about what they had done, if they had been much more open and forthcoming coming out of the gate, it would have been better for everybody.
But I will say this: I wasnt in favor of impeachment. I dont think what Clinton did rose to the level of what impeachment is really for. I think if people in Congress wanted to impeach President Bush they could, not because he committed a crime but because they think hes a bad president.
That was the phrase [high crimes and misdemeanors] that came from Britain, and the British used to, under that phrase, remove people just because they screwed up a war.
There are great examples. Allegedly these were the same standards of impeachments when they impeached a minister because the British suffered a setback in the war with the Dutch. It wasnt a crime, but you were a bad leader. But it has to be something of significance to the state. Clinton, what he did didnt seem to rise to that level.
Its only five years. I was here for one year, went to Thomas and Hatch, came back. I was here from 96 to 01, so five years.
The war powers thing I did in 93 before I went to Thomas and Hatch. Did that the very first year I was here -- the two chapters at the front. The other stuff I did in the five years. The book would have come out in 2001 if I hadnt gone to the government.
Spent 04 updating it for the war on terrorism and the things that happened in the war on terror. And the conclusion. It came out in 05. The terrorism book I wrote in 05 and it came out in 06.
No, I actually -- a lot of the chapters first appeared as articles in legal journals from 96 to 2000. It was all in print, if you want to show I thought these things through before government.
Yeah, no president is going to hire someone for the OLC who thinks that the Congress is the dominant branch of the presidency. Both Democratic and Republican administrations. Thats one of the things I point out in my terrorism book. The Clinton Justice Department took some of the same positions. They just didnt have a war to apply them to. Youre not going to be hired to write and think about executive power if you think that Congress has the authority to approve everything before the president does it. It would be like deciding to hire someone at Pepsi who likes Coke.
I think theres a group of scholars, some in law, some in political science, who had developed a more robust theory of the unitary executive. Most of that writing is about domestic affairs -- firing the independent counsel. Most of my writing is about foreign affairs, where there were less people writing. But there was a constellation of different professors writing somewhat similar things on other issues.
There were four deputies, and usually one of them was given foreign-affairs issues, and thats what I was hired specifically to do.
I was doing nothing. One of the things I was doing was reviewing the implications of the United States signing a treaty about polar bears. Remember, this was not going to be a foreign affairs administration: It was about tax cuts and faith-based initiatives. I didnt think I was going to stay very long. Ill probably go back after a year -- theres not much to keep me occupied.
I got there July of 01. Two months. Started around July 4th.
Immediately people started asking me about my issues. I was at my desk, very early in the morning, a little after nine. You get the news: the first plane hit. Youre not really sure it was a terrorist attack. But when you see the second plane hit you know this is human coordination, not random chance. Washington is evacuated, which probably hasnt happened since 1814, which is an incredible sight -- people leaving their cars in the highway and walking home. But Im told I have to stay behind because of my work on war powers.
My superiors in the Justice Department. There was a career fellow who was sort of in charge. Someone in the attorney generals office. Then you work on all these issues. Is this a war? And do we need to declare war? What would it look like?
People asked me. So I stayed till well after midnight, maybe two or three in the morning. I dont remember the exact time. When I went home I saw the Pentagon on fire. Justice is on 9th and Constitution. Went from there to the 14th Street Bridge and when you get on the bridge you see the Pentagon. It was a dark night but it was amazing, the flames reaching high into the air so the whole thing is lit up. I drove right by it to go home. And then I didnt sleep because people still kept calling me to talk about these things.
Same things: Is this is a war? Can we use the military in response? How can we use the military?
Yes, that was a question [Can planes be scrambled to shoot down any remaining hijacked aircraft]. That was earlier: Can we use force?
I must have. I cant tell you what I said. No, I dont think thats actually public. Can you use force in response? What kind of force? What are the standards that guide the use of force?
I had read every declaration of war and authorization of war. Writing my war powers article, I had studied all the examples. If someone decided it was a war, I could tell you what kind of force you could use and what Congress needed to do, this kind of thing. In terms of whether it was a war, I thought about it. Id also studied the cases from American history of fighting non-states like Indians, pirates, rebel groups. So, I mean -- like military commissions: I knew what those were from before 9/11. There were cases about it in the Supreme Court that people had forgotten. But I had read them. In the office at the OLC, theres a plaque on the wall that says, This is where the German saboteurs were tried by a military commission and sentenced to death. Just a small little plaque on the wall. I asked them what it was and they explained it, but I had read the case.
I had studied the Civil War a lot. A lot of these issues came up in the Civil War. Civil War people asked, Is this a war or is it a rebellion? Do we treat them as a nation, or are they just insurgents? Some of them are citizens -- what about our own citizens? I had actually read and written an introduction to the reissuance of an old book, 1864, by the chief military legal advisor to Lincoln, and he went through early legal issues that had come up in the Civil War. For some reason it was reissued in 1997 or 98 and someone asked me to write an introduction. So I read it pretty carefully. So I knew what these things were before 9/11.
Yeah, I did think it was a war. Some of the things I thought about were the level of violence. The source. Three thousand people killed by a foreign enemy that had a purpose that was to affect our foreign policy. It wasnt like crime in the sense that crime is sporadic. Its not really carried out with the purpose to change a policy. Its usually carried out for financial gain. Its persistent and permanent. This was organized use of violence by someone else to change our policies. So thats the way I thought it through.
I think it is like piracy.
We have wars against pirates. The British had wars against pirates, we had wars against pirates. We just hadnt had one in a long time. We had a war against the Barbary pirates.
If a nation had done it, would we have any doubt it was a war? The way I thought, the only thing thats different from the Soviets attacking us or the British attacking us is that its not a nation that did it. If you held everything else constant, it was really the identity of the opponent. Does that make the difference? I can see -- there are some people who say, other law professors, that it is impossible to have a war with anyone other than a nation. Thats when I started thinking about the Indians and the pirates. I think we can and have had wars with non-nations before. But theres no precedent, no case before the Supreme Court about it. I tried to show in the book that I didnt think it was obvious, but you had to think it through, and certainly reasons for -- people can have reasonable arguments on the other side. And thats the whole question that, I think, still divides the opponents and the supporters of the war on terrorism. At least the Supreme Court and the legal arguments. They say this is fundamentally, one, this is not a war, so you are not allowed to do all these things, and I think it is a war, so therefore we can use these powers weve used in war before.
Its different, yeah. Its a harder war because of that. The fact that an opponent is not a nation makes it much more difficult.
You know, you could have -- think of it this way: If you had gone to Congress, Congress certainly thought it was a war right away. I dont think they had that view you expressed. I think there was a lot of political support with the view that it was a war. I just have a hard time seeing anyone in Congress -- I think there was one vote against it in the end. But I agree, its a judgment you make based I think on common sense because we dont have any modern parallels. The Israelis and the British and other European countries have had their wars with terrorist groups, but the United States hadnt. So on that question I think what you really saw was, What would the reasonable people think? You could say, Look, we should slow down, we should be more cautious, we should think through what this is. I think we did that in the 90s, frankly. We did the other approach. You can just read the 9/11 Commission report. The Clinton administration did think this was a serious threat, but they decided to respond primarily through a law-enforcement approach. Sometimes used military measures like cruise missiles and kidnapping plans and so on, but they didnt really use a full military effort.
I think if someone had been in the job that I had that had never done the research or thought through these problems it would have been instincts, but I had done a lot of reading and thought about it a lot. I had seen what the Israelis and British had thought about and what we had done historically.
Thats true. The idea that the government could respond with the full range of war powers, rather than law enforcement.
I dont think so. Because its not like I had a personal stake in it being a war. Its not like I wished that 9/11 ever happened.
No, its -- theres this event and you have to analyze it, and there is no obvious answer because you cant say the Supreme Court decided already or the president or Congress had some clear opinion. But I think I tried to break it down in terms of why would this be a war.

TUCSON - Independence day celebrations aren't as exciting for most animals, but there are some measures you can take to keep your pet happy.
Some dogs and cats become so fearful and anxious over fireworks that they can cause harm to themselves.Each year the day after the Fourth of July, the Humane Society of Southern Arizona receives an increase of lost dogs and cats after escaping home out of fear.
HSSA gives a few tips that all pet owners should follow this time of year:
- Keep your pet indoors and, for pets with extreme sensitivity, create a den-like environment if possible, such as a crate, room or walk-in closet free of windows.
- If at all possible, remain home with your pet to provide comfort and security.
- Turn on a TV or radio to provide soothing sounds that will distract your pet from outside noises
- Spray some pet-friendly aromatherapy to calm your pet's nerves
- Animals that are extremely sensitive to noise may benefit from the use of veterinarian-prescribed sedatives
- Be sure to keep a well-fitted collar and identification on your pet
- Have your pet microchipped
HSSA recommends micropchipping because it helps immediately identify a lost pet and locate its owners.
If your pet escapes, immediately call HSSA's Lost and Found Department at 327-6088, and Pima Animal Care Center, at 793-5900 to file a lost report.
Visit found-pets.org and be sure to visit each shelter at least every other day to look for your pet in person.

About 10 years ago, Liars were the hottest band on the indie circuit (old man phrase). Following the release of "They Threw Us All in a Trench and Stuck a Monument on Top," Angus Andrew was on top of that smallest slice of the world, dating the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Karen O and rocking the imminently danceable "Mr. You're On Fire Mr." like a crazy 6-foot-7 version of the foreign relief pitcher from the last season of "Eastbound and Down." It was good times, but they strayed from the dance punk formula that made them moderately famous, and while that won them critical adoration, it also led to boring live shows and less immediate music that lost them whatever tiny bit of popularity they had gained. Oh well. Such is art.
This is obviously the most you'll ever read about Liars on a basketball blog, but I only bring it up because they have a new record coming out and Andrew says it's hard to understand unless the Clippers are playing well. That's relevance, my friends. From Pitchfork:
The only transmission of pop culture that infiltrated the writing sessions that resulted in WIXIW was the NBA finals. (Liars are hardcore Clippers fans who'd probably rather talk basketball than music. "When the Clippers are doing well," says Andrew, "it feels like the world is in the right gear and everyone's going to understand our record.")
Judging by this description, I imagine "WIXIW" will be a halting record that sounds pretty good, but you wish it was a little faster. Or maybe people will think it's going to sound awesome, then when it's merely OK, they'll be disappointed and dissect everything that is wrong with it. Or maybe the record will have two really good songs, a few OK songs and then a whole bunch of really bad songs. Also, naturally, if you get to close to this record it'll fall over. There are actually a lot of Clippers metaphors that work well for music, which I didn't know before writing this paragraph.
It's probably too late, but Liars should maybe talk to their label about waiting to release this record, since the Clips are already out of the playoffs. A big hit might bring the band back to prominence, but if you need a hot Clippers team for the songs to make sense, now isn't a good time. Waiting until a nice win streak during next season might be a good idea, especially since they can't travel back in time to that 6-game win streak in April. We just don't have the technology.

What are the similarities and differences between job analysis and competency models?
1 Answer | Add Yours
The major similarity between these two is that they both have the same purpose. Both are meant to identify the requirements for performing a given task. Both can be used to figure out what sort of person (or what specific person) should be selected for a given job.
The major difference is that job analysis looks at the details of the job while the competency model looks at the attributes of the person. In the job analysis model, extensive data is gathered about what a particular job actually entails. It is then important to go out and find a person who can do those things (or can be trained to do them). By contrast, the competency model focuses on "KSAOs." That stands for "Knowledge," "Skills," "Abilities," and "Other individual characteristics. Such an analysis tries to determine what KSAOs are needed in order to excel at a given job. It focuses on the person rather than on the task.
Both approaches can be useful and both have the same goal, but they go about reaching that goal in very different ways.

if you happen to use firefox there is a great add on that makes things so simple it is called copy as html link with that add on you can go to any webpage, picture or what ever that is online and simply hilight one word or group of words on that page right click on it and choose from the options copy as html link, then right click and paste into your reply box. Just like this there is also one that gives you the option to copy in BB code for those forums that use BB code as well as html and other options no need to try to remember those codes |
I wish there was an add on that could let you do underlines, bold, italics, etc. It takes me too long, following directions to do it myself. Jane |
Thank you, owbist and raven. I'm surprised it's still so complicated (to me) to send a link using all that lingo and those symbols. I tried the ff link but my settings aren't accepting it, so will have to figure that one out. I'm still working on sending a link in an email that can just be clicked on and not have to cut and paste. |
Well, shooooooot. I was able to do it before, but now I can't get a CLICKABLE link in email. I used this link below but I only get a ulr that isn't clickable. I feel sure I followed instructions! I have a mac and ff, though I'm sure that has nothing to do with it. Any thoughts from anyone not totally annoyed yet? |

what email client are you using most all of them make links clickable immediately when you paste it in the email, the only one that has a problem is hotmail if you are using firefox it does not do it automatically you have to paste the link in the email then click on the hyperlink icon, paste the url there also then click apply, a real pain when you have a lot of them to do. It works fine if using IE however. |
Yes, I use Firefox. What is the hyperlink icon? (Forgive my ignorance--still lots to learn.) Perhaps it will be easier when I can download the ff download? |
In my hotmail when I start a new message on the bottom row of toolbars at top of the message screen the third icon from the right is the hyperlink icon. Hover your cursor over it and the name will show up. |
- Posted by ravencajun (My Page) on Thu, Apr 28, 11 at 21:44
you did not mention which email client you use??? depending on your email client you may have to set it for rich text and then the icons will show up I know that is what you do in hotmail. In hotmail at the very top there is a drop down box with the options rich text, plain text and edit in html, set it on rich text that enables the new bar with various icons and options like font, size, color, bold, and also an icon that looks like a globe with a chain link in front of it, that is the insert hyperlink icon. However you need to tell us which type of email you use because it can be different on that one. |
Well, I use Entourage, though Yahoo is my main email; I just hate it. I know I'm not using the correct terminology at all! Because our email is through att u-verse, we have to use Yahoo mail and through that(?) we use Entourage (as a pop account?) We cannot use the entourage email when away from home, only yahoo. I have discovered that what I thought wasn't working, actually was. When I right-click the url and insert into an email, it doesn't look as though it's clickable. But dh showed me that it is, indeed, when it is received. So I guess I'm all set! Thank you all again for your help. |

"Prédateurs" Theme Sarko's, Not Ed's
Labour types are scraping the barrel this morning claiming that Newt Gingrich has "stolen" Ed's much derided "predators" line. Tom Watson is crowing, Political Scrapbook are grandstanding and Guido is laughing. Ed isn't even the first European leader to develop the theme. Rewind to 2007 and enter stage right French Presidential candidate Nicolas Sarkozy:
Nicolas Sarkozy, the neo-Gaullist favourite, has vowed to "hit predators" with a tax on speculative investments – apparently a version of the Tobin tax, a staple of populist discourse in Europe for years. "We can't tolerate hedge funds buying a company with debt, firing a quarter of the staff and then enriching themselves by selling it in pieces. We didn't create the euro to have capitalism without ethics or morals," he said. Mr Sarkozy is supposed to be the "free market" candidate.
Ed's line was nothing but a cheap rip off of that…

Still no time to be making things as I would like, but I came across the Berkey water filter last night from a friend's posting of this youtube video:
I've been concerned about fluoride for some time. Last Christmas season I bought an inexpensive counter-top water filter which hooks up to the tap in our kitchen and is able to remove fluoride from the city water. We've actually been really happy with it and the water tastes fantastic.
Looking into the Berkey design, it seems that as long as you can get the containers for the water and the ceramic filters, you can easily construct one yourself. Why bother? Well, the lack of pressure requirement is a plus in case of failure of the city's water supply and you can filter rain water. The ceramic filters come in various grades and last a long time with some occasional maintenance. They do not remove fluoride without a secondary filter, however.
While I have not yet built one of these, I think it is well worth considering. I will likely build one in the future.
Here are some links for reference:
Instructions for a DIY Bucket Filter
Instructable – Cheap and Effective Water Purification System
(neither of the above use the secondary fluoride filter, but they would be attached to the threaded ends of the ceramic filters and hang within the lower chamber)
