Mutant Writer Spews Gibberish
Fiendish free weekly creates journalistic Frankenstein: The once friendly, sober, and decorous Frank Alvarado of Miami Today and the Daily Business Review joins New Times and appears to have been psycho-surgically transmuted into a caustic, trash-talking Hunter Thompson wannabe named Francisco Alvarado, a snappy pseudo-hipster with a Trotskyite's disdain for anyone with more than the price of a good beer in his pocket. Frank/Francisco has become the Myra Breckenridge of Miami journalism. He sets the tone of his article "Willy and Peter Do Miami" (October 10) by establishing that attendees at the Grand Prix Americas race generally weren't attired in sackcloths and ashes. Shocking! And that promoters Willy Bermello and Peter Yanowitch were proud of their work. We'll have none of that! And that Miami Mayor Manny Diaz was enthusiastic in his support for the nationally televised event that drew 75,000 people into a normally deserted downtown Miami park. Outrageous!
Tracing the history of the race, Frank/Francisco cites a "clandestine lunch" two years ago when promoter/lawyer Yanowitch first broached the idea of a new Grand Prix with promoter/architect Bermello. Clandestine? Where did they meet, on the top floor of a darkened parking garage? Under a bridge? In a tomato field near Homestead? Get real!
Further -- he notes ominously -- the race was born out of "private meetings" with former Mayor Joe Carollo. I'm sure that at New Times -- where I assume they have bleachers in the bathroom stalls -- nothing private ever occurs. But in the world occupied by the rest of us, business meetings generally do not feature audiences. This matters not in New Timesland, where rousing the rabble with class jealousies and paranoiac delusions that someone somewhere somehow is to blame for one's own squalid existence provides the backdrop for most editorial content.
In an effort to demonstrate the limited benefits of the race, Frank/Francisco managed to track down a single downtown merchant who felt he was insufficiently enriched by the event and believed that the presence of "empty streets" somehow prevented potential customers from storming his store to buy computers. And in what I can only assume was an editing error, the race was also blamed for the fact that September (the month before the event) "was almost fatal for us." Having set the stage with those insightful observations, Frank got down to the serious work at hand.
Ohhhhh (he intones as he sets out to rip the covers off the great Grand Prix "scandal"), the city granted the promoters an evil "no-bid" agreement to hold the race on city streets! I assume we will next hear about the city giving "no-bid" permission for the Orange Bowl parade? Or "no-bid" authority for the Coconut Grove Arts Festival? Or "no-bid" use of the Orange Bowl by any number of users?
What hokum! Poor gullible Frank/Francisco has opened wide and swallowed whole a mammoth dose of complete hooey dished out by the slick big-city lawyers at Steel Hector & Davis, handmaidens to the Evil Empire of Auto Racing, the France organization, which has spent an estimated $500,000 in legal and lobbyist fees in a frenzied attempt to shut down a competing, and immensely more interesting, auto race motivated by what they would have all of us believe is a public-spirited effort to protect the sanctity of municipal bidding requirements.
Puhleeze! If anyone other than the "New Frank" in his highly disturbing New Times reincarnation is buying this crapola, I've got a nearly useless auto-racing track in Homestead I'd like to sell them.
Seth Gordon
Editor's note: Seth Gordon's marketing and public-relations firm, Gordon Reyes Diaz-Balart, served as a consultant to the Grand Prix Americas.
Rosenberg dug his own film festival grave: Brett Sokol is wrong. His characterization of the Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival board of directors is incorrect ("They Shoot Divas, Don't They?" October 10). If Sokol were to examine the board roster since the MGLFF's founding, he would have found almost all the best and brightest leaders in Miami's gay community. But the pool of qualified individuals willing to hold leadership positions has been exhausted by perennial turnover created by the "difficult demeanor" of festival director Robert Rosenberg. Festival patron Harvey Burstein, however generous, is also wrong. Dismissing an incorrigible brat like Rosenberg does not mean the MGLFF is faltering. On the contrary, it was time for someone to stand up to Rosenberg and stop the bloodletting created by his nasty disposition. The festival will find its bearings and move on because the local gay community supports it. Burstein might be surprised by the flood of supporters willing to participate now that Rosenberg is gone.
Finally, Rosenberg himself is wrong. He says he has been the festival's only constant, but the true constant has been the unwavering support of Miami's gay community. The only unfortunate aspect of this scandal is Rosenberg's dragging it into the public arena. It doesn't become fabulously talented people to carry on this way. That only feeds the stereotyping of gays and lesbians as "divas," something New Times apparently couldn't resist.

The three pure primary colors of light are red, green, and blue. When two primary colors of light mix, a secondary color results.
- Red Light + Green Light → Yellow Light
- Red Light + Blue Light → Magenta Light
- Blue Light + Green Light → Cyan Light
- White light is a mixture of all three primary colors:
Blue Light + Green Light + Red Light → White Light
If you're scratching your head and saying, "But red and green paint make brown!" it's because paint colors combine by color subtraction, not color addition. The pigments in paint filter (block out) reflected light. In pigments the primary colors are red, yellow, and blue. Color addition is the process of blending differently colored lights together, such as shining different colored theater lights onto a stage. The more colored lights you add to the blend, the brighter and whiter the results. Color subtraction is the process of successively filtering out colors. If you look through several pairs of different colored sunglasses, you can observe color subtraction. Similarly, the more colors of paint or dye you mix, the more you subtract and the darker and blacker the results.
- 3 focused light sources (slide projectors or theater lights)
- white screen
- tape
- colored gels or filters-red, blue, and green
- prism
- scissors
- cardboard
- drawing compass
- metric ruler
- cordless drill with sanding disk or buffing wheel bit (requires adult help)
- glue
- safety goggles
- white paper
- markers or paint and paintbrush
Why is the sky blue? The atmosphere refracts (bends and changes the velocity of) light into different colors as a prism does. Blue is refracted the most, so it bends back to our eyes. For the same reason, water in the ocean reflects light rays, bouncing them off the surface, so the ocean often appears blue. (For more on refraction and reflecting, see the next chapter.)
To Demonstrate Color Addition with Gels
- Aim your three light sources at a white screen in a dark room. They should overlap, but not completely (see figure).
- Tape gels or filters in front of each light to make the three primary colors of light (red, blue, green) fall on the screen.
- The three secondary colors of light (cyan, yellow, and magenta) will appear where two primary colors overlap. At the intersection of all three colors, you will see white. (You may have to experiment with different shades of gels, or double up some colors, to get ideal results.)
Isaac Newton split a narrow beam of white light into the colors of the spectrum-red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet-using a prism in a dark room. You can, too.
To Demonstrate Color Addition with a Color Wheel
- Cut out a circular cardboard disk, 15 to 20 cm in diameter. Devise a method of mounting the disk on a drill so that the disk spins. One way to do this is to have an adult center the disk on a sanding disk or buffing wheel bit and fasten it securely with glue. Use caution when you operate the drill-wear goggles and don't touch the spinning disk.
- Cut out a white paper disk of the same size, and use markers or paint to color it red, green, and blue in pie slices. Glue it to the cardboard wheel.
- Spin the color wheel as fast as you can and observe the resulting color.
Since your colors are not likely to be pure and the same intensity, you will probably have to vary the size of the pie slices to get white-which may be closer to cream in color. In both activities, you can make a table of primary, secondary, and more complex (tertiary) colors as shown. (Fill in the blanks based on your experimentation.)

Consider The Franchise Disclosure Laws
The starting point in the franchise vs. license question is it doesn't matter what terms are used by the parties in contracts or other documents to describe their relationship. For example, the contract may call the relationship a license, a distributorship, a joint venture, a dealership, independent contractors, etc., or the parties may form a limited partnership or a corporation. This is entirely irrelevant in the eyes of governmental regulators, in particular the Enforcement Division of Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Their focus is not on semantics, but whether a small number of defining elements are present or not. Today sellers are subject to a complex web of regulations that differ from the federal level (FTC Franchise Rule) to the state level and differ widely from state to state.
Consider The Business Opportunity Laws
The FTC Rule also covers "business opportunities," so the federal business opportunity elements must be considered. At the state level, there are approximately 24 states that regulate and register business opportunities. Unlike the franchise box, there is no such thing as a uniform business opportunity disclosure format. Business opportunity rules and registration requirements differ in each business opportunity state, so state-specific business opportunity disclosure documents must be drafted and registered in each state if the state's defining elements are present. For a company that's going the business opportunity route two different documents may need to be prepared and provided: the FTC's Basic Disclosure Document (if the business opportunity fits the FTC's definition of a business opportunity) and a state's more abbreviated business opportunity disclosure document.
Consider The Financial Cost When A "License" Relationship Is Challenged As A Disguised Franchise
It's not a question of "if" the franchise vs. license relationship is challenged, the only question is when. Here's a real life example. A "licensing attorney" prepared a dealer license agreement and ignored the FTC Franchise Rule disclosure requirements. The dealers became disgruntled and hired a litigation attorney who sued the company for selling illegal, disguised franchises. It cost the company $750,000 to go to trial in federal court to answer the question "Is this contract a franchise?" It's always a very expensive question to answer. Trying an end run around the franchise disclosure laws by calling it a "license" may be less expensive initially. But clients must be prepared to spend mind-boggling amounts down the road when the disguised franchise is challenged. And it's never a question of if it's challenged, the only question is when.

Kamil Bober
Chemistry Undergraduate
Kamil Bober, an aspiring physician, admits that a defining moment in his educational experience at IIT was unrelated to his major in chemistry, a discipline that allows him to see "the wonders of the world at the level of atoms and molecules." Instead, Bober says that moment arrived when he volunteered at the 2010 annual fundraiser of the IIT Student Chapter of Haiti Outreach.
"During my time at IIT, I have met individuals whose passion is to help the less privileged people of the world," says Bober. "These individuals, who are now some of my closest friends, have shown me that there are others with much bigger problems than anything I have ever faced. The fundraiser solidified what I want to do as a doctor."
A native of Debica, Poland, Bober came to Chicago with his family when he was five. He learned of IIT through his older sister, who was enrolled in the architecture program. He had developed a strong interest in chemistry as a student at Whitney M. Young Magnet High School, and was offered a full-tuition Camras Scholarship—offered to the top 1 percent of the applicant pool—to attend IIT. He says the university's chemistry program is meeting his academic needs on several levels.
"The professors really make the effort to help students and listen to what they want," he explains. "They also stress that students should apply skills they learn in the classroom to experiments they do in the lab. Students are challenged and given the opportunity to solve real-world problems on their own. There are opportunities to get involved in research, and students are encouraged to do just that."

This is a tad revisionist. The British helped Cixi put down the Taiping Rebellion when their concession was threatened and without them Cixi could have been deposed by Hong Xiuquan. An attempt to take Shanghai in August 1860 was repulsed by a force of Qing imperial troops and European officers under the command of Frederick Townsend Ward.
30 million died as a result of the rebellion, 100,000 at the Third Battle of Nanjing alone. This is entirely in line with China's tradition of seeking change through mass slaughter. Mao went one better than Hong Xiuquan and caused the deaths of 40 million in the 1960's, but what is 10 million more or less in a country of 1.3 billion?

A story of simplification and abstraction (stackless timeouts)
11/01/2014Someone was asking me the other day how to implement a timeout in a thread. His initial implementation used two background threads: one to do the work (making requests to a web service and updating a counter), and the other in a loop polling the counter and sleeping. If the first thread stopped updating the counter, the second should report some sort of error.
I helped him simplify the design in a couple ways. First I had him use stackless instead of threads and taught him how threading and microthreads work. Based on that, I suggested that instead of a counter and loop/sleep, there is a parent tasklet that kicks off a child tasklet which does the actual work.* The parent tasklet recvs on a channel with a timeout, and the child tasklet sends on the channel to act like a heartbeat. If the parent recv times out, it means the child tasklet hasn't reported in and the user can be alerted. This simplified the code considerably.
I then asked a colleague (Kristján Valur) how to do a timeout with stackless, and he told me about the stacklesslib.util.timeout context manager. Doh! It ended up being as simple as:
try: for item in items: with stacklesslib.util.timeout(200): process_item(item) except stackless.util.TimeoutError: tell_user_about_timeout()
It's pretty amazing what sort of power you're able to wield with a good language and framework. It's so important to have the right abstractions, but you need to know how to use it. Even with documentation, nothing beats a little help from your friends.
*Instead of a channel, we probably could have used an Event.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Carbapenems are a class of β-Lactam antibiotics with a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity. They have a structure that renders them highly resistant to most β-lactamases.[1] Carbapenem antibiotics were originally developed from the carbapenem thienamycin, a naturally derived product of Streptomyces cattleya.[2]
Carbapenems are one of the antibiotics of last resort for many bacterial infections, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae.[3] Recently, alarm has been raised over the spread of drug resistance to carbapenem antibiotics among these coliforms, due to production of carbapenemases, including the New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase, NDM-1. There are currently no new antibiotics in development to combat bacteria resistant to carbapenems, and worldwide spread of the resistance gene is considered a potential nightmare scenario.[4]
The following drugs belong to the carbapenem class and are approved for use by health authorities:[citation needed]
These agents have the broadest antibacterial spectrum compared to other β-lactam classes such as penicillins and cephalosporins. In addition, they are generally resistant to the typical bacterial enzyme, β-lactamase, which is one of the principal β-lactam resistance mechanisms of bacteria. Carbapenems circumvent β-lactamase by binding it with high affinity and acylating the enzyme, rendering it inactive.[8] Carbapenems are active against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and anaerobes, with the exception of intracellular bacteria (atypicals), such as the Chlamydiae. Carbapenems also are thus far the only β-lactams capable of inhibiting l,d-transpeptidases [9]
In the United States and United Kingdom, strains of carbapenem-resistant enteric bacteria have been isolated from patients having received recent medical care in Pakistan, Bangladesh, and India.[10] These strains carry a gene called New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (shortened NDM-1) that is responsible for the production of a metallo-β-lactamase enzyme that hydrolyses carbapenem.[11][12] A clinical isolate of E. coli from the sputum sample of a patient admitted to a Beijing hospital was found to show unusual resistance to carbapenem that does not rely on the presence of carbapenemase. The isolate was determined to have four separate mutations to acquire the resistance to carbapenems. Two mutations removed the outer membrane proteins OmpF and OmpC to prevent the antibiotics from reaching the PBPs (penicillin binding proteins) in the inner membrane.[8] A regulator gene marR was mutated and a normally non-translated membrane protein yedS was expressed; both were demonstrated to have effects on the ability of this strain of E.coli to resist carbapenems. The bacteria also increased the expression of a multidrug efflux pump.[13][14]
In 2014, researchers in Canada found carbapenem-resistant bacteria in a sample of frozen squid sold at a Chinese grocery store in Saskatoon, Canada. The squid reportedly originated in South Korea and was purchased in January 2014. University of Saskatchewan researcher Joseph Rubin called the find "extremely disturbing".[15]
In terms of structure, the carbapenems are very similar to the penicillins (penams), but the sulfur atom in position 1 of the structure has been replaced with a carbon atom, and an unsaturation has been introduced—hence the name of the group, the carbapenems.
The carbapenems are thought to share their early biosynthetic steps in which the core ring system is formed. Malonyl-CoA is condensed with glutamate-5-semialdehyde with concurrent formation of the five-membered ring. Next, a β-lactam synthetase uses ATP to form the β-lactam and the saturated carbapenam core. Further oxidation and ring inversion provides the basic carbapenem.
Due to their expanded spectra, the desire to avoid generation of resistance and the fact that, in general, they have poor oral bioavailability, they are administered intravenously in hospital settings for more serious infections. However, research is underway to develop an effective oral carbapenem.[16]
When the first bacterial β-lactamases emerged in the late 1960s, and reduced the efficacy of penicillin, an intensive search for β-lactamase inhibitors was launched. By 1976 the first such inhibitors had been discovered - these olivanic acids were metabolites produced by the Gram-positive bacterium Streptomyces clavuligerus. Olivanic acids are formed around a carbapenem backbone (a carbon at the 1 position, substituents at C-2, a C-6 ethoxy, and sp2-hybridized C-3) and act as broad-spectrum β-lactams. Because of their chemical instability and poor penetration of the bacterial cell wall, research on these olivanic acids was not continued. However, shortly after, two superior β-lactamase inhibitors were discovered: (1) clavulanic acid from S. clavuligerus, the first clinically available β-lactamase inhibitor, and (2) thienamycin from Streptomyces cattleya. Thienamycin was the first carbapenem and would serve as a model for all subsequent carbapenems.[17]
A carbapenem is defined as the 4:5 fused ring lactam of penicillins with a double bond between C-2 and C-3 but with the substitution of carbon for sulfur at C-1. The hydroxyethyl side chain of thienamycin is a radical departure from the structure of conventional penicillins and cephalosporins, all of which have an acylamino substituent on the β-lactam ring; the stereochemistry of this hydroxyethyl side chain is a key attribute of carbapenems and is important for activity. Remarkably, thienamycin demonstrated potent broad-spectrum antibacterial and β-lactamase inhibitory activity. This notable discovery was first reported at the 16th Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy (ICAAC) meeting in 1976. Although thienamycin is a "natural product" and the biosynthetic pathway was determined, yields from the purification process were low. With time, the synthetic preparation of thienamycin assumed greater importance, especially as a key derivative, imipenem, was discovered.

ARM president Tudor Brown confirmed to TechEye tonight that the firm will launch an independent company tomorrow as a spin off of its existing business.
Tudor Brown, the president of the company, said that the announcement will come at 11:30AM tomorrow, Taiwanese time.
Although he was reluctant to give details of the new company, he told TechEye that an R&D center in Old Taipei was a sine qua non.
ARM is "agnostic" about software that runs on its systems but Brown claimed that if you considered the number of design wins it had made, it is a bigger company than Intel.
Software is very important to ARM, he said tonight. He took time to praise Microsoft too.
Microsoft, he said, with its Windows Mobile 7 software, and other work it was doing, would supply the legacy support that its slim clients needed.
He also said that it was way too early to do down Microsoft's initiatives. Although he insisted that ARM is operating system agnostic, and worked with all OSes, he refused to be drawn on whether one was better than the other.
Brown also detailed the ascent of ARM and spoke volubly about e-readers and the like. He said that when the Newton flopped in 1992, Apple came to the rescue of the company.
He was eloquent about Apple. He said that there was no conceivable reason why Apple should not become more interested in semiconductor designs.
On reflection, we have to agree with Brown. Given the past history of Acorn, which certainly had inventive technology, why should there be any conceivable reason why Steve Jobs' company shouldn't do it?
Although Intel and AMD will certainly have reasons to differ from that view. Brown would not comment on ARM's current relationship with Apple.
ARM has relationships with over 670 worldwide companies, including Intel and AMD, both of which have taken out licenses.

Yeah, there's a very good reason why fruityco shouldn't get involved in semiconductor design. Stevie, the wonder turd, got rid of the only person in fruityco's history that even knows what happens under the black plastic cover, the acclaimed Woz. Nobody else in fruityco since Woz has any idea how semiconductors, or even electricity, works.
The world + dog would be in a sorrier state without ARM Holdings (LSE: ARM, NASDAQ: ARMH). ARM is the pivotal limb for launching enough mobile devices to reach half way around the moon and back. I say that ARM should put its shoulder to the wheel, and as many the more ARMs length and licence, the merrier! ARM is the forbearer which has give the world the Thumb-2 compiler. ARM has give a hand to all who've come a knocking! It is no longer enough to show muscle; today you must have the flexibility to build tomorrow's body.

Valley West Community adding new patient wing
The new patient wing construction at Valley West Community Hospital in Sandwich also includes an updated, west-facing front entrance off north Main Street. | SUPPLIED PHOTO
Last May, the KishHealth System Board of Directors has approved construction of a 21,400-square-foot patient wing on the north side of Valley West Community Hospital, providing 19 private patient rooms and two observation rooms.
When the $11.2 million addition is complete later this fall, medical/surgical and intensive care will move to the new wing, the oldest section of Valley West will be demolished, and a modern facade will be constructed on the remaining southern portion of the building facing Pleasant Avenue.

Since 2002, the health system has invested $22 million in modernizing the north side of Valley West, including a new atrium entrance and lobby, operating rooms, Emergency Department, and obstetrics unit. A medical office building opened on the north side of the campus in 2008, and more parking was added. Additional land also was purchased north of the hospital to allow for long-term campus planning.
"With outpatient, OR and OB facilities complete, we are excited to move forward with enhancing the inpatient experience," said Brad Copple, president of Valley West in Sandwich and Kishwaukee Community Hospital in DeKalb.
The new patient wing will have a new main entrance oriented to the west and will bring the hospital closer to the medical office building.
"Since becoming part of KishHealth System in 1998, Valley West has invested in facility, technology and program upgrades every year," said Dave Proulx, assistant vice president of hospital operations. "We have been very fortunate to be part of a health system that is financially strong."
In addition to the development of the Valley West campus, new physicians will be recruited to enhance access to primary and specialty care in the immediate area. The current physician recruitment plan calls for 13 new physicians over the next five to six years.
Valley West is part of KishHealth System, which includes Kishwaukee Community Hospital, Hauser-Ross Eye Institute, DeKalb County Hospice and outpatient facilities and physician practices in Sandwich, Plano, Yorkville, Sycamore, Genoa, Hampshire and Waterman.
Valley West Community Hospital, part of the KishHealth System, is a 25-bed, federally designated Critical Access hospital located in Sandwich. A full-service hospital, Valley West has a 24-hour Emergency Room, inpatient and ICU care, onsite laboratory and diagnostic imaging/radiology capabilities, and a Level II Nursery within the Maternity Suites. Over the past 12 years, the KishHealth System invested more than $35 million in facility and technology improvements, and recruitment of specialists to the hospital.

Axl Rose To Pony Up Tens of Thousands For Battered Bentley
Axl Rose will fork over $53,000 to cover some serious Bentley damage — but even though it seems like a lot … the "Guns 'N Roses" singer actually got a nice discount.
Axl was sued by Bentley Financial Services last year — which claimed Rose leased a $192K Bentley Flying Spur back in 2005, and proceeded to beat the crap out of it … eventually returning it with damages and fees totaling $73,000.
But last week, Axl finally settled the case — agreeing to cough up $53,000 to call it even.
Which is a great deal — because if you do your math, that's a 27% discount.

Chris had precisely what she needed and was on his way to create it for her. Natasha got excited just considering what Chris would bring over. She began to masturbate, rubbing her clitoris and fingering herself. Chris turned up and did not allow her to lower. Natasha lost her breath, as she drawn lower his pants. As well as much more as he began to fuck her. Natasha am happy to possess a large cock she ensured he fucked her correctly in as numerous positions as you possibly can. Natasha also loved huge loads in her own face and Chris satisfied this need too at Teens Love Huge Cocks.

Posted by Niall O'Dowd at 6/4/2009 12:05 AM EDT
Actor Liam Neeson has been named Co-Chairman of the American Irish Historical Society (AIHS) in New York, one of America's oldest Irish organizations.
The society is dedicated to furthering Irish-American culture and traditions and preserving historical records of Irish America .
Neeson, who recently lost his wife Natasha Richardson in a tragic ski accident, stated he hoped the AIHS would open itself up to many other ethnicities too, all of whom he said have played a part in helping create the history of the Irish in America.
He specifically quoted the example of former Black slave Frederick Douglas, a friend of Abraham Lincoln, who visited Ireland and spoke out passionately against the oppression there during the Irish famine.
He also spoke about the Choctaw Indians who had sent a donation to Ireland during the Famine to help the victims.
He said he looked forward to the day when their roles could be remembered in Irish American history also.
Neeson, a native of Ballymena in Northern Ireland, has long had a deep interest in his heritage.
He played the title role in "Michael Collins," the movie about the Irish revolutionary who was killed during the Irish civil war.
He has a long track record of helping causes in Ireland, including making a substantial donation to victims of the 1998 Omagh bombing, carried out by the Real IRA, one of the worst atrocities of The Troubles.
Recently he was awarded an honorary doctorate by his alma mater, Queens University Belfast.

Alex Salmond – Putting Scotland on the EU Map
The Scottish Parliament is to vote this evening on a motion calling for a
parliament with the powers and responsibilities of independence to grow the economy.
Since the SNP has an overall majority in that Parliament, it will pass.
Alex Salmond's opponents are accusing him of trying to manipulate the result of the referendum that is to be held over the next couple of years on Scottish independence. That argument is unfair and also of dubious legality.
The Telegraph claims:
the vote has no binding effect – constitutional affairs are reserved to Westminster
I am not quite so sure. The Act of Union was passed in 1707 by the Scottish Parliament and the English Parliament. That Act united both Parliaments to create the Parliament of the United Kingdom. That is the basis of saying that only the UK Parliament can pass a law granting Scottish independence.
However, we now have a devolved Scottish Parliament. Legally speaking, that "parliament" is not strictly a parliament, since it does not have sovereign authority over Scotland. That authority remains with the UK Parliament. But morally you might claim that this Parliament is the successor of that original Scottish Parliament – it has certainly been presented as a proper parliament, representing the Scottich people. Since no parliament can bind its successor, you might argue that the new Scottish Parliament, since it represents the Scottish people, has the right to overturn the Act of Union.
Anyway, all this is legal debate that is beyond my legal understanding since I am not a lawyer.
More important, is that the SNP want Scottish independence "within Europe". In other words, their vision is of Scotland becoming an independent member of the EU in its own right. By accepting various EU treaties, the United Kingdom has accepted the authority of the EU. (Critically, of course, the UK Parliament has not abolished itself or merged itself into a European Parliament, so it still has the right to repeal British membership of the EU.)
However, until the UK Parliament takes Britain out of the EU, we are in it and ruled by Brussels on most matters. After "independence", Scotland would be too.
This blog is heartily in favour of Britain leaving the EU. But with us in the EU, at least we are a large country in the EU, and do have some influence and voting strength (albeit still in a minority). We are also big enough to have a future outside the EU idf we choose to leave – or at least arguably so, though Europhiles would not agree.
An "independent" Scotland would be a small EU member.
The Scottish population is around 5 million, about half that of Portugal or Greece, or about the same as Finland. Scotland would end up being treated as a small and insignificant State in the Union, ignored in EU decision making and treated as an irrelevance.
If the Scottish think the London government is remote and uninterested in Scotland, they should try Brussels.
Ironically, Alex Salmond might end up forcing Scotland permanently into the United States of Europe, and watching Merry England waltzing out to freedom. He wants to unhitch Scotland from the UK and hitch it directly to the EU instead. Good luck with that one, Mr Salmond.

No Description Available.
See + Do
Skiing, Switzerland
The St. Moritz ski region divides into four main areas—a lift pass covers 56 lifts and over 218 miles of trails. Corviglia mountain is the core (and closest to the town center), reached by funicular from Dorf and by cable car from Bad. A modern gondola provides the link from the neighboring town of Celerina. Once up the mountain, a series of 10 modern chairs provide a network of runs for all standards. Corvatsch mountain, above Lake Silvaplana and a short ski-bus ride away from Dorf, is equally entertaining. The skiing is reached by cable car from both ends of the lake. The snow-sure glacier above Surlej peak gives access to a couple of scenic routes while Furtschellas mountain is the setting for the more demanding Seestutz and Muntanella descents.
If you're staying in Bad village, you can ski home from Corvatsch or transfer to the Corviglia area. Lagalb and Diavolezza are two adjoining ski areas situated farther west along the valley beyond the town of Pontresina. Together they offer some of the best expert skiing in the region and will be linked by a lift for the 2009–2010 season. Apart from the runs back down to the cable car, the top of Lagalb is the starting point for the off-piste La Rösa tour of the south face into a neighboring valley. Take the six-mile descent (with a guide) down the glacier from Diavolezza, which is the most spectacular in the Engadine valley.
Mathis Food Affairs, Switzerland
St. Moritz CH-7500, Switzerland
Tel: 41 81 833 6355
Website: www.mathisfood.ch
Mathis is a collection of lunch-only restaurants owned and run by St. Moritz's celebrity chef, Reto Mathis. They range from a snowboarders' refueling station with hot dogs and wok specials, to the unique La Marmite which claims to sell more caviar and truffles than any other restaurant in the world during the February high season (although you wouldn't know it from the exterior, a garish yellow-painted concrete building adjoining the lift station.) Book well in advance for La Marmite.
Open daily 8 am to 4 pm, December through April.
Nobu, Switzerland
St. Moritz CH-7500, Switzerland
Tel: 41 81 837 28 23
Website: www.badruttspalace.com
Nobu is Badrutt's attempt to reclaim a younger clientele from the Kempinski. Though the dining room is still a Belle Epoque museum piece, the kitchen employs Nobu Matsuhisa's patented fusion of Peruvian and Japanese traditions (except in summer, when the space is used for Le Relais breakfast and events). Whatever you think of the victuals, Nobu continues to be the place in St. Moritz to people-watch.
Open daily 7:30 to 11 pm, mid-December through mid-March.
El Paradiso, Switzerland
St. Moritz CH-7500, Switzerland
Tel: 41 81 833 40 02
Website: www.el-paradiso.ch
El Paradiso restaurant has been entirely refurbished in lavish style with candelabra on the open-air bar, sheepskin-covered benches, and a montage of magnums of Champagne on the terrace (it's a chic spot for a mid-morning glass of bubbly with a view across the Engadine Valley.) Inside, the restaurant specializes in Swiss mountain fare and creative pastas at decent prices (by St Moritz standards). Try the tagliatelle with white truffles or the lobster spaghetti.
Open December through April. Call ahead for hours.

See Nick Cave and a Children's Choir Sing About Mermaid 'Snatch'
'Push the Sky Away' single captured in stirring live clip
We're not sure which costs more: Having the Silver Lake Music Conservatory's children's choir perform at your concert, or buying really really good ear plugs for all of those adorable little tykes. Nick Cave and his Bad Seeds brought the kiddies out to Coachella for a stirring set that included an incredibly blue rendition of "Stagger Lee" (the choir sat that old murder ballad out) and they can also be seen in the official live video for "Mermaids," the next single from the band's excellent 15th album Push the Sky Away. The pro-shot black and white clip premiered on Rolling Stone and is stirring indeed thanks in no small part to all of those voices, but a little awkward considering the part where Cave's voice sings, "I was the match that would fire up her snatch." Or that other spot where he claims, "I believe in 72 virgins on a chain." Or ... well, it's the Bad Seeds; songs about visceral instincts and existential gloom are par for the course. For more of those, revisit the videos for "Jubilee Street" and "We No Who U R," and also Record Store Day B-side "Animal X." For more insight into Cave's cranky, creepy mind, check out the results of his recent Twitter Q&A.

"The darkness can be mesmerizing, scary, romantic and humorous. Through my photography I am able to express my passion by capturing the world of horror, humour and erotica through the eye of my camera."
This passage is taken from the mission statement of Vancouver's Anaethema Photography, the brainchild of sisters, Danielle Anathema and Christine Lyon. At turns dark, visceral and erotic, Anethema's work straddles the fine line between haunting beauty and visceral shock.

Concierge.com's insider take:
Vermont is a duffer's dream, thanks to the 70-plus courses that dot its bright green valleys. For those staying in the Northeast Kingdom region, Jay Peak Resort hosts 18 holes ($99 on weekends) by course architect Graham Cooke (4850 Rte. 242, Jay; 802-327-2184; www.jaypeakresort.com). In the Burlington area, the Jack Nicklaus–designed Vermont National Country Club is private but welcomes guests of select city hotels, including the Sheraton Burlington and the Courtyard Marriott Burlington, for $120 each and reciprocal guests for $105 each (1227 Dorset St., South Burlington; 802-864-7770; www.vermontnational.com). Too steep? A former dairy farmer now milks golfers for only $32 a round at the pretty 18-hole Cedar Knoll Country Club (13020 Rte. 116, Hinesburg; 802-482-3186; www.cedarknollgolf.com). Farther south, guests at the Equinox hit the Golf Club at Equinox ($80 to $115 on weekends), now managed by Troon Golf; those staying at the Deerhill Inn can enjoy the Mount Snow Golf Club ($85 on weekends), designed by Geoffrey Cornish, just two miles away (Rte. 100, West Dover; 802-464-4254; www.mountsnow.com).

That was one reason why I didn't buy one when we had them come in. But once I found out how much pressure they required, I am more forgiving on that part. But, I still didn't buy one because the stock was too flimsy, and the barrel is pencil thin. |

If you're thinking of spending around $400 or more even, I would buy the Leupold RX-1000 TBR without a second thought. Great unit, and one of the best sellers we carry. |

I was able to range six inch plates and 4x14 poppers at 650 ease. Anything past 800 it has to be large and flat like a truck topper window. When we setup steel out west this is how we do it just tell the driver over the radio to stop. The only beef is they are sticklers with warranty claims and its always cheaper to buy a new one. |

I wouldn't hesitate to buy the Leica. We ranged an elk at 1150 yards in Colorado 6 or 7 years ago with mine. There was some small rocks to bounce off from but nothing huge and shiny. I have nothing but good to say about it. When we are hunting out west it is always the "go to" rangefinder amongst the guys out here. I bought it 8ish years ago and I have only put a battery in it once and it has never missed a beat.

how much $ R good jeeps
Nikon is in the same class as Leupold and Vortex. I personally prefer the Nikon because the glass is so nice....... I have a 4-12 BDC Nikon on my .17HMR and have used the Nikon "Spot on" program and it calibrates for specific calibers and Even cartridges.

You are about to visit a fair in Almaty, Kazakhstan. We are not sure if you get hungry after seeing this, but for people fairs held from time to time is a nice opportunity to buy food cheaper than usual. That day a lot of meat was offered for sale.
Everything was starting quite tritely: from onions, potatoes and cabbage. It's quite ordinary for October. But then let's turn out the corner...
Here is what we can find there... A lot of mutton!
Do you often see people carrying carcasses on their shoulders?
But it's quite ordinary for Kazakhstan. Meat, mainly mutton and horseflesh, is the most important element of the national cuisine.
They like to joke that the Kazakhs are the second meat eaters in the world ... after wolves.

Well Ok. I wasn't at the dentist office the entire time! But it sure felt like it!! I went to the Dentist (who will now be called Dr. Neighbor. Because He is my neighbor)in June.
He told me that I had 11 cavities and possibly needed a root canal.
11 filled cavities later and a re-root* canal that took 2 sessions... I'm finally done!!!
When I tell people about my 100000 cavities they automatically assume that it is from my diabetes. I am not sure but I don't think that it is directly related, I have senstive teeth, and they are really close together. So even though I brush and floss 2 times a day, I can't get all the stuff out. (gross)I really do think that eating sugar in the middle of the night and not brushing after probably adds to my cavities. But come on... who is going to get up and brush their teeth after a low blood sugar in the middle of the night!!! Not me at least!!
This is my root canal tooth. Its my front right one. Pretty cool huh???
*I had a root canal on this tooth when I was 19, but because I am ME, somehow bacteria got back in there and was causing pain and infection. Which as a person with diabetes knows, that infection causes high blood sugars... and just no fun in general.

Job openings rates by industry
August 01, 2002
Over the year ended in May 2002, the largest decline in job openings occurred in construction, where the rate fell from 3.4 percent to 1.9 percent.
Large declines also occurred in retail trade, services, and mining. Job openings were about the same in May 2002 as they were a year earlier in manufacturing and government.
The job openings rate is the number of job openings on the last business day of the month as a percent of total employment plus job openings.
These data are a product of the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey. These data are not seasonally adjusted. Find additional information in "New Monthly Data Series on Job Openings and Labor Turnover Announced by BLS," USDL 02-412.

The Kitsap Community Foundation (KCF) assesses an Administrative Fee on each of its Funds to cover administrative costs. Fees may be revised from time to time as circumstances warrant.
The annual management fee for Endowment Funds depends upon the size of the Fund.
For Funds of $1,000,000 or less: the greater of $200 or 2% of the Fund's market value
For Funds of $2,000,000 or less: 2% of the Fund's first
$1,000,000 plus 1% of the amount
over $1,000,000
For Funds over $2,000,000: the fee will be negotiated
These administrative fees are assessed quarterly based on the quarter ending market value of the Fund and will be prorated for funds opened during the quarter.
This fee also applies to Pass-Through Funds that are invested.
The annual management fee for Pass-Through Funds held at KCF (i.e. not invested) is the greater of $50 or one percent (1%) of the fund's balance.
The fee will be assessed quarterly based on the quarter ending balance of the fund and will be prorated for funds opened or closed during the quarter.
Investment costs are in addition to the aforementioned fees.
When a contribution is made by credit card, the fee charged by the credit card company will reduce the amount of the contribution credited to the Fund.
Administrative fees provide KCF with the ability to appropriately staff services that provide oversight and due diligence as to how funds are invested and expended. This ensures a competitive return that enables donor/investor dollars to be used to meet identified community needs and support charitable beneficiaries in good standing with regulatory agencies. Administrative fees also provide the Foundation with the ability to fund vital community initiatives such as periodic community needs assessments, collaborations with other non-profits, and other community awareness programs.

The Drug Demand Reduction (DDR) Support mission provides standardized, measurable and evidenced based programs that are intended to gain the commitment of our nation's youth to make healthy, safe and drug-free choices. The DDR mission also provides support to community and state based organizations with the common goal of reducing the demand for illegal drugs. Drug Demand Reduction directly interacts with children through their KEY National Initiative, DRUG FREE STARTS WITH ME. The program visits local schools and communities in every state and territory to increase awareness and motivation, and provide leadership, guidance and support to America's adolescence about their choice to remain drug-free.
Drug Demand Reduction
The Drug Demand Reduction Program's mission is to use the National Guard's resources to help create the best opportunity for America's youth to make the decision to be drug-free. The Idaho National Guard Drug Demand Reduction Program will leverage unique military skills in addition to the myriad of skills our personnel bring from their life experiences and training, to provide the youth of Idaho with information and life skills to make the commitment to live a drug-free life.
The Drug Demand Reduction Program works closely with local law enforcement, education and community-based organizations to reduce the chances of exposure of illegal drugs to our nation's children. They also contribute to drug prevention by providing National Guard led education based, leadership and motivational programs.
The Demand Reduction Support mission has two distinctive sub-mission categories: DDR Support, and DDR Education and Programs.
The National Guard DDR Support: Efforts led by community based organizations that are designed to provide rewards and incentives, alternative activities (countering) and environmental strategies to help our nation's youth make the commitment to be drug-free. These comprehensive support strategies include, but not limited to:
(1) Facilitating collaboration and increasing the capacity, sustainability, and synergy of coalitions and partnerships.
(2) Supporting reward and reinforcement events/activities that focus on the implementation of effective incentives, use of motivational methods, and measurement of positive changes toward drug-free behavior.
(3) Supporting drug prevention activities that focus on the implementation of alternative activities proven to provide positive modeling and motivation which create the opportunity for drug-free experiences leading to a drug free life.
(4) Supporting community-led efforts to develop environmental strategies that assist in changing written and unwritten community standards, codes, and attitudes, thereby reducing the demand, incidence and prevalence of illegal drug use and the illegal use of prescribed drugs in the general population.
This mission implements standardized, measurable and evidenced based educational programs. DDR education and programs will use standard methods to measure the desired outcomes and ensure mission fidelity. The role of DDR personnel in this mission is to increase awareness, provide guidance, and facilitate collaboration to motivate our nation's youth to be drug-free.
DDR Education and Programs:
(1) Programs designed to increase awareness and motivation towards positive changes in knowledge, attitude and intent. These desired outcomes must be measured to determine mission effectiveness.
(2) Programs designed to provide guidance and facilitate constructive changes in DDR prevention policy, procedures and practices.
(3) Programs that motivate our nation's youth and facilitate positive changes in self esteem, increasing their abilities to make drug-free choices
Programs: -Stay On Track Counterdrug Signature Program National Stay On Track Website -Class Action -Coalition Support -Experiential Education Support
The program visits local schools and communities in every state and territory to increase awareness and motivation, and provide leadership, guidance and support to America's adolescence about their choice to remain drug-free. The Drug Demand Reduction Program is dedicated to helping build a drug-free youth in families and communities across the nation.

CAIRO - Highlighting the decades-long Israeli occupation of Al-Quds (occupied East Jerusalem), activists are planning a series of marches toward the holy city to mark Palestine's Land Day.
"We believe that the international community has failed as it has not managed to force Israel to stop the Judaization of Jerusalem, the settlements and the separation fence," Said Yakin, one of the organizers of the Global March to Al-Quds, told The Jerusalem Post on Monday, March 19.
"Jerusalem is the key to both peace and war. We do not want Jerusalem to turn into the city of death but the city of life for all people."
Activists are planning a series of marches toward Al-Quds to mark the Land Day on Friday, March 30.
Organizers say more than 700 institutions from 64 countries support the initiative, directly or indirectly.
The marches are set to commence one or two days prior to Land Day with events in the capital cities of neighboring countries.
Marches will also be held outside Israeli embassies in various European and Arab countries, basically Egypt and Syria.
Convoys from Jordan, Lebanon and the Palestinian Authority are scheduled to arrive at borders at 11am at the end of Friday prayers.
The Land Day march "Palestinians and their international supporters will attempt to get as close to Jerusalem as they can: whether at the borders of Lebanon and Jordan, at checkpoints in the West Bank, or at the Erez crossing in Gaza," the group said in a statement.
Organizers are using social networks to attract Arabs to take part in the event.
In one Facebook page, the group says its goal is to reach Jerusalem "or the nearest point to it."
Land Day commemorates the death of six Arab Israelis during a general strike at an Israeli decision to confiscate privately owned Palestinian lands in 1976.
Organizers say their marches will be peaceful to avoid any confrontations with Israeli occupation forces.
"We are after all not an army, but popular peaceful international forces aiming to show solidarity with Palestine and with Jerusalem," spokesman of the Global March to Jerusalem Zahir Al-Birawi said.
Protests marking Nakba day last year saw the killing of at least 13 people by Israeli occupation forces.
In Egypt, protests are planned at Al-Azhar Mosque, Tahrir Square, and a commemorative sports tournament in Cairo.
Organizers in Jordan and Lebanon are not decided yet on appropriate locations for protests.
In Syria, organizers are coordinating with the local Palestinian population to stage marches marking the event.
Al-Quds is home to Al-Haram Al-Sharif, which includes Islam's third holiest shrine Al-Aqsa Mosque, and represents the heart of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Israel occupied the holy city in the 1967 war and later annexed it in a move not recognized by the international community or UN resolutions.
Since then, Israel has adopted a series of oppressive measures to force the Palestinians out of the city, including systematic demolition of their homes and building settlements.Erasing the remaining history of Arabs and Palestinians in Al-Quds, a new bill was approved by the Israeli Knesset last May that ordered Hebraizing all Arabic names of the city's neighborhoods.
